2.2 PREMISES.
A. DESCRIPTION. Landlord on behalf of and as agent for the owner of the Shopping Center hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant leases and accepts subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, the Premises. The square footage of the Premises shall be the square footage set forth in Section 1.2.B above. If the floor area of the Premises, or the Shopping Center shall be more or less than the estimated square footage set forth in Section 1.2 of the Abstract of the Lease, neither the Minimum Rent nor calculation of Tenant’s Proportionate Share hereunder shall be affected. Under no circumstances shall Landlord or Tenant be entitled to any rent credits or other credits past, present and future for an error in the square footage calculation.
B. EXCEPTION AND RESERVATION. Landlord reserves and excepts from the Premises the roof and exterior walls of the building or buildings of which the Premises are a part, and further reserves the right to construct additional floors on the building of which the Premises are a part and the right in, over and upon the Premises as may be reasonably necessary or advisable for the servicing of the Premises or of other portions of the Shopping Center.
C. SUBSTITUTE PREMISES. After the date hereof, Landlord may substitute for the Premises other space (hereinafter called “Substitute Premises”) in the Shopping Center. Insofar as reasonably possible, the Substitute Premises shall have a comparable square foot area and a configuration substantially similar to the Premises. Tenant agrees that all of the obligations of this Lease, including the payment of Minimum Rent, will continue despite Tenant’s relocation to the Substitute Premises. Upon substantial completion of the Substitute Premises, this Lease will apply to the Substitute Premises as if it had been the space originally described in the Lease. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any period when the Premises shall be closed to the public as a result of relocation. Provided that Tenant shall be unable to conduct any business at the Shopping Center solely due to such relocation, all Rent shall xxxxx from the date the Premises are closed until the date the Substitute Premises are open for business. Tenant agrees to use all reasonable efforts to open for business in the Substitute Premises as quickly as is reasonably possible under the circumstances, and in all events within thirty (30) days after Landlord delivers possession of the Substitute Premises to Tenant. Landlord hereby agrees to pay the reasonable cost of relocation such as equipment moving and installation costs. Landlord shall not, however, be liable or responsible in any way for damages, loss of business, income or profits or injuries suffered by Tenant pursuant to a relocation in accordance with this provision including, but limited to, loss of goodwill, business, or profits.
2.3 COMMON AREA. Tenant along with its Lease of the Premises receives the non-exclusive right to use, in common with others, the Common Areas of the Shopping Center. The term “Common Areas” herein shall include all common corridors, elevator foyers, restrooms, vending areas and lobby area within the building wherein the Premises are located, all service roads, loading facilities, sidewalks, automobile parking areas, driveways, footways and other facilities designed for common use, as may be installed by Landlord as hereinafter provided, and of such other and further facilities as may be provided or designated from time to time by Landlord for common use, subject, however, to the terms and conditions of this Lease and to reasonable rules and regulations for the use thereof, as prescribed from time to time by Landlord.
ARTICLE III - LEASE TERM
AND POSSESSION OF PREMISES
3.1 TERM.
A. INITIAL TERM. The Term of this Lease shall be as set forth in Section 1.3 above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Lease and all of the obligations of Landlord and Tenant set forth herein are binding and shall be in full force and effect from and after the date of their mutual execution of this Lease, and this Lease shall not be deemed a contract to make a lease. Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any and all utilities servicing the Premises from and after the date that Landlord delivers the Premises to Tenant. Landlord and Tenant agree that if the Term shall not have commenced on or before the first (1st) anniversary of the date of this Lease, then Landlord and Tenant each shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering notice thereof to the other party prior to such commencement.
If this Lease is executed before any portion of the Premises becomes vacant or otherwise available and ready for occupancy, or if any present tenant or occupant of any portion of the Premises holds over and Landlord is unsuccessful in acquiring possession of such portion of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder nor in any way liable to Tenant and Tenant agrees to accept possession of such portion of the Premises at such time that Landlord is able to tender the same. Upon its determination of the Commencement Date, the Termination Date and the Rent Commencement Date, Landlord will notify Tenant of same and such dates shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant for all purposes under this Lease.
B.
EXTENDED TERM. Provided that Tenant is not in default hereunder, both at the time of exercise of the option as well as at the
time of commencement of any Extended Term hereinafter defined, or has not been in default during the 365 days immediately preceding
the Termination Date, and provided, further, that this Lease has not been terminated during the initial Term or a prior Extended
Term, Tenant shall have the number of options to extend the Term for the number of years each as set forth in Section 1.3.B. above,
immediately following the then current term and subject to all of the terms, conditions, covenants and provisions of this Lease
(“Extended Term”). Tenant shall exercise its extension rights hereunder in each instance by delivery to Landlord of
written notice no earlier than two hundred and seventy (270) one hundred and eighty (180) days and no
later than one hundred and eighty (180) ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the then current term.
Except to the extent expressly otherwise set forth herein, nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as granting any
rights to extend the Term beyond the Termination Date. In the event Tenant is in default either at the time it exercises its rights
to extend or at the intended commencement date of such Extended Term, then all of Tenant’s extension rights described in
this Section shall terminate automatically. The rights set forth herein to extend the Term of this Lease are personal and reserved
to the original Tenant and may not be exercised by any successor or assign of the original Tenant. For the purposes of this Lease,
the “Term” shall include any “Extended Term.”

3.2 QUIET ENJOYMENT. Landlord agrees that, if the Rent and any other additional charges are being paid in the manner and at the time prescribed and the covenants and obligations of Tenant are being all and singularly kept, fulfilled and performed, Tenant shall lawfully and peaceably have, hold, possess, use and occupy and enjoy the Premises so long as this Lease remains in force without hindrance, disturbance or molestation from Landlord, subject to the specific provisions of this Lease. The loss or reduction of Tenant’s light, air or view will not be deemed a disturbance of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises nor will it reduce Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or create any liability of Landlord to Tenant.
3.3 SURRENDER OF PREMISES.
A. OBLIGATIONS UPON SURRENDER. Upon any termination of this Lease or termination of Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises, whether by lapse of time, cancellation or termination, forfeiture, or otherwise, Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises and all buildings and improvements on the same to Landlord in “broom clean” condition and good and tenantable repair, reasonable wear and damage from fire or other casualty or peril excepted, and shall surrender all keys and security codes for the Premises to Landlord at the place then fixed for the payment of Minimum Rent and shall inform Landlord of all security codes, combinations of locks, safes and vaults, if any, in the Premises.
B. RIGHT TO REMOVE. At any time during the ten (10) days before the Termination Date of this Lease, Tenant, if not in default hereunder at such time, shall have the right to remove, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and at the end of the Term or termination of Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises, if directed to do so by Landlord, shall remove, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, from the Premises all furniture, furnishings, signs, and equipment then installed or in place in, on or about the Premises provided, however, Tenant shall make all repairs, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to the Premises required because of such removal and to restore the Premises to good order, repair and condition all within such ten (10) day period. If any of such property shall remain on the Premises after the end of the Term, at the option of Landlord, such property shall be and become the property of Landlord without any claim therein of Tenant. Landlord may direct Tenant to remove and repair such property, in which case Tenant agrees to do so, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and to reimburse Landlord as Additional Rent for any expense of removal in the event Tenant shall fail to remove such property if and when directed. Tenant hereby grants Landlord the absolute right to dispose of any property remaining on the Premises following Tenant’s failure to remove same in any manner as Landlord determines in its sole discretion without liability therefor to Tenant and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense.
3.4 HOLDING OVER. Any holding over after the expiration of the Term of this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises, without the consent of Landlord, shall be construed to be a tenancy from month to month, cancelable by either Landlord or Tenant upon thirty (30) days’ written notice, and at Minimum Rent equal to two hundred percent (200% ) of the total Minimum Rent as existed during the last year of the term hereof for each month or partial month of holding over, and further upon all of the terms and conditions (including, without limitation, the obligation to pay Additional Rent) as existed other than payment of Minimum Rent during the last year of the term hereof. Such holding over by Tenant, and Landlord’s collection of any Rent therefor, shall not serve as permission for Tenant’s continued occupancy of the Premises nor serve to extend the Term. Tenant shall also indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against all claims and damages, consequential as well as direct, sustained by reason of Tenant’s holding over. The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall not be deemed to be a waiver of Landlord’s right of reentry or right to regain possession by actions at law or in equity or any other rights under this Lease, and any receipt of payment of holdover Rent by Landlord shall not be deemed a consent by Landlord to Tenant’s remaining in possession or be construed as creating or renewing any lease term or right of tenancy except as elected by Landlord as set forth above.
ARTICLE IV - RENT AND
OTHER TENANT CONTRIBUTIONS
4.1 MINIMUM RENT. Commencing on and as of the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the minimum annual rent (hereinafter referred to as “Minimum Rent”) set forth in the Abstract of Lease, payable in advance in equal monthly installments on or before the first day of each calendar month, without prior demand therefor and without offset. The first payment date for Minimum Rent shall, if the Rent Commencement Date is other than the first day of a month, include Minimum Rent for the fractional month on a per diem basis (calculated on the basis of the number of days in that particular month); and thereafter the Minimum Rent shall be paid in equal monthly installments in advance on or before the first day of each calendar month during the Term of this Lease.

XXXXX RECEIPTS. The term “Gross Receipts” as used herein is hereby defined to mean gross receipts and sales from all
business conducted upon or from the Premises, whether such receipts be obtained at the Premises or elsewhere, and whether such
business be conducted by Tenant or by any licensees, concessionaires or tenants of Tenant, and whether such receipts be evidenced
by cash, check, credit, charge account, exchange or otherwise, and shall include, but not be limited to, the amounts received
from the sale of goods, wares, fixtures and merchandise and for services rendered, including the amount of all orders taken, received
or filled at the Premises, whether such orders be filled from the Premises or elsewhere, together with any interest charged to
customers on all such amounts. If any one or more departments or other divisions of Tenant’s business shall be sublet by
Tenant or conducted by any person, firm or corporation other than Tenant, there shall be included in Gross Receipts for the purpose
of fixing the Percentage Rent payable hereunder all the Gross Receipts of such departments or divisions whether such receipts
be obtained at the Premises or elsewhere in the same manner and with the same effect as if the business or sales of such departments
and divisions of Tenant’s business had been conducted by Tenant itself. Gross Receipts shall also be meant to include any
rents collected by Tenant from sublessees, licensees, or concessionaires. Also included in the term Gross Receipts will be all
internet or mail order sales in the general geographical area of the Shopping Center by Tenant or a parent, subsidiary or affiliate
of Tenant of products normally sold in the Premises by Tenant. Gross Receipts shall not include sales of merchandise for which
cash has been refunded, or allowances made on merchandise claimed to be defective or unsatisfactory, provided they shall have
been previously included in Gross Receipts; and there shall be deducted from Gross Receipts the sales price of merchandise returned
by customers for exchange, provided that the sales price of the merchandise delivered to the customer in exchange shall be included
in Gross Receipts. Gross Receipts shall not include the amount of any sales or use tax levied directly on sales and collected
from customers and paid by Tenant, provided that specific record is made at the time of each sale of the amount of such sales
or use tax and the amount thereof is separately charged to the customer. No franchise or capital stock tax and no income or similar
tax based upon income or profits as such and no Gross Receipts tax shall be deducted from Gross Receipts. If Tenant’s goods,
wares, merchandise or fixtures are moved off Premises for sale, such sale shall be deemed to have occurred at the Premises.
C.
MONTHLY STATEMENT AND PAYMENT. Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month during the Term of this Lease, Tenant
shall submit to Landlord an accurate, unaudited, written statement signed by Tenant or on its behalf by a duly authorized officer
or representative, showing the full amount of Tenant’s Gross Receipts from the Premises during such month and shall pay
to Landlord within such thirty (30)-day period the Percentage Rent, if any, with respect to such month. If Tenant fails to report
Gross Receipts within the timeframe stated above, Landlord may, at Landlord’s option, collect as Additional Rent, One Hundred
and 00/100 Dollars ($100.00) per incident of violation.
D.
SALES TAX REPORTS. Upon the request of Landlord, Tenant shall provide copies to Landlord of all State and local sales and use

E.

certified as correct by Tenant, a principal officer of Tenant, or by a certified public accountant, which shall set forth by calendar
month the total Gross Receipts of Tenant and of each subtenant, licensee and concessionaire with respect to the preceding calendar
year. Upon request, Tenant shall give Landlord the total gross sales and an itemization of each of the permitted deductions herein,
to arrive at the total Gross Receipts. If the total of the monthly Percentage Rent payments made during the preceding year is
less than Percentage Rent payments for such calendar year as set forth above, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord
at the time of submitting the year end statement; and if the total such monthly payments exceeds the said amount payable, then
Landlord shall credit such excess toward the Minimum Rent owed by Tenant as the same becomes due or, upon termination of the Lease,
shall refund any such excess payments to Tenant.
F.
BUSINESS RECORDS. The business of Tenant and of any sublessee, licensee, licensee or concessionaire upon the Premises shall be
operated so that a duplicate sales slip, invoice or cash register receipt, serially numbered, shall be issued with each sale or
transaction, whether for cash, credit or exchange. Tenant shall keep at all times during the Term hereof, at the Premises or at
the general office of the Tenant, full, complete and accurate books of account and records in accordance with accepted accounting
practices with respect to all operations of the business to be conducted in or from the Premises including the recording of Gross
Receipts and the receipt of all merchandise into and the delivery of all merchandise from the Premises during the Term hereof,
and shall retain such books and records, as well as all contracts, vouchers, checks, inventory records, and other documents and
papers in any way relating to the operation of such business, for at least three (3) years from the end of the lease year to which
they are applicable, or, if any audit is required or a controversy should arise between the parties hereto regarding the Rent
payable hereunder, until such audit or controversy is terminated.
G.
RIGHT TO AUDIT. Landlord shall have the right, but not more than once during any twelve-month period, unless Tenant fails to report
Gross Receipts for six (6) consecutive months, to make independent examinations or audits of all of Tenant’s books, records
and accounts which pertain to or show Gross Receipts, or to have same made by an accountant or certified public accountants designated
by Landlord. Such audits shall be limited to the determination of the Gross Receipts as defined herein and shall be conducted
at Tenant’s home office during normal business hours and after reasonable prior notice. If the examination or audit shows
that there has been a deficiency in the payment of Percentage Rent, Additional Rent or Minimum Rent, Tenant shall immediately
pay to Landlord the deficiency together with interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the date the payment should
have been made. If, as a result of any audit of Tenant’s records it is determined that Gross Receipts are understated by
more than 3%, then Tenant shall also pay the reasonable cost and expenses incurred in connection with such audit. If Tenant shall
fail to prepare and deliver any statement of Gross Receipts, required hereunder, within the time provided, then in addition to
the remedies available to Landlord under Section 11.2, Landlord may have a certified public accountant, selected by Landlord,
audit Tenant’s records and prepare such statements which shall be conclusive on Tenant and Tenant shall pay the expenses
of such an audit and preparation of such statements and the Percentage Rent so determined, together with the interest at the rate
of ten percent (10%) per annum from the date the payment should have been made. Any information gained from statements as herein
provided or any examination or audit shall be confidential and shall not be disclosed except to carry out the purposes hereof,
provided, however, that Landlord may disclose the contents of any such statements and/or audit in connection with any financing
arrangements or assignment of Landlord’s interest in the Premises or with any litigation with Tenant regarding Gross Receipts
or Percentage Rent.

For each year of the Term hereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent (“Additional Rent”), Tenant’s proportionate share (“Proportionate Share”) of: (i) all costs of operation and maintenance of the Common Areas (“Operating Expenses”); (ii) all real estate taxes levied and assessed against the Shopping Center including the Common Areas (“Real Estate Taxes”); (iii) all insurance coverage upon the Shopping Center and its operations (“Insurance”); and (iv) Landlord’s administrative fees (“Administrative Fee”). As and for Tenant’s Proportionate Share, as hereinafter defined, set forth in the Abstract of Lease, such amount shall be payable as Additional Rent in equal monthly installments at the same times as Minimum Rent is payable hereunder, without demand and without any deduction or setoff whatsoever. Landlord may, at its sole option, adjust Tenant’s monthly payments of estimated charges if Landlord, in its reasonable judgment, determines the estimated charges are incorrect.
B. DEFINITIONS. For the purpose of this Section:
(1) “Tenant’s Proportionate Share” shall be a percentage equal to the rentable square footage of the Premises divided by the total square footage of all rentable floor space in the Shopping Center from time to time; provided, however, that Landlord may exclude from such rentable floor space in the Shopping Center, at Landlord’s option, any portions of the Shopping Center: (i) not occupied or open for business during all or any portion of the subject year, (ii) leased to or used by other parties as major tenants (tenants occupying greater than ten percent (10%) of the Shopping Center), theaters, restaurants, storage areas, or premises in separate buildings, where such parties are not required to pay a full pro rata share of Operating Expenses or Real Estate Taxes, as the case may be, pursuant to a lease or other agreement with Landlord, and (iii) with respect to Real Estate Taxes, areas of the Shopping Center for which separate real estate tax bills are received and which are the sole responsibility of separate parties pursuant to a lease or other agreement with Landlord; provided, Landlord shall also deduct from Operating Expenses (after computing Landlord’s Administrative Fee (as defined in clause (4) below)) or Real Estate Taxes, as the case may be, all amounts received from such excluded parties for Operating Expenses or Real Estate Taxes; provided, Landlord shall also deduct from Real Estate Taxes all amounts received from such excluded parties for Real Estate Taxes.

6.2 INITIAL CONSTRUCTION BY LANDLORD. The responsibility for performance and payment for the initial construction of improvements on and in connection with the Premises, if any, is set forth in Exhibit C-1 attached hereto and made a part hereof, and except as expressly set forth herein, Landlord is under no responsibility to make any changes to the Premises or the Shopping Center, make any representations, perform any act or service, or provide Tenant with any permits, certificates, drawings, or other materials or information as a requirement of delivery. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to substantially complete such construction in a timely manner, provided that in the event such substantial construction is delayed or hindered by strikes, casualties, fires, injunctions, inability to secure materials, restraints of law, actions of the elements, or any other causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, or by any acts or omissions of Tenant, then the construction period shall be extended to the extent of such delays.
Landlord’s Work shall be deemed to be “substantially completed” for all purposes under this Lease if and when the Landlord’s Work has been completed, except for minor, finish-out and so-called punch list items (collectively, “Punch List Items”) in substantial compliance with the plans and specifications therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Premises shall be deemed to have been “substantially completed” upon Landlord’s delivery of possession thereof to Tenant, unless Tenant, within ten (10) days after receipt of such possession, notifies Landlord in writing that the Premises have not been “substantially complete” and the specific, detailed reasons therefor. Tenant agrees that, within ten (10) days after Landlord’s delivery of the Premises to Tenant, Tenant shall inspect the Premises with Landlord or its representative and execute Landlord’s standard punch list (“Punch List”) which shall identify any uncompleted portions of Landlord’s Work agreed to by Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the work to be included in the Punch List, the dispute shall be submitted to an architect selected by Landlord for resolution, whose decision as to the work to be included in the Punch List shall be final and binding on the parties. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with the resolution of any such dispute shall be shared equally by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant further agrees that at the request of Landlord from time to time thereafter, Tenant shall promptly furnish to Landlord a revised Punch List reflecting the completion of any prior Punch List Items. If Tenant fails to conduct such inspection or execute the Punch List, Landlord is authorized to complete and sign the Punch List on behalf of Tenant, which as so completed shall be binding upon Tenant.
Tenant, its agents, servants and contractors, prior to the delivery of possession of the Premises, shall have the right to enter upon the Premises, for the purpose of taking measurements or making Tenant’s improvements therein, but for no other purposes; provided, however, that such entry shall not interfere with or obstruct the progress of the work being done by Landlord and further provided Tenant has first delivered evidence of liability insurance in amounts as are required by the terms of this Lease.

Tenant agrees that it will not permit or authorize any person to go onto the roof of the building of which the Premises are a part without the prior written consent of Landlord. Landlord shall not be required to make any repairs to the exterior walls, roof, and sidewalks unless and until Tenant has notified Landlord in writing of the need of such repairs and Landlord shall have had a reasonable period of time thereafter to commence and complete said repairs. Landlord may at its sole discretion arrange for a maintenance contract of all roof structures, the cost of which shall be Tenant’s responsibility as to Tenant’s Proportionate Share thereof.

No additions, alterations, changes or improvements shall be made which will weaken the structural strength, lessen the value of, or change the architectural appearance of any building or other construction. Landlord may condition its approval of any additions or alterations by Tenant on the requirement that Tenant or its contractor secure and bear the cost of a labor and materials payment bond for the amount of the proposed construction reflecting Landlord as an obligee. All building materials and fixtures installed by Tenant shall be new or completely reconditioned. At Landlord’s sole option, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall, in connection with completion of its work, deliver copy of invoices lien waivers from the general contractors, all subcontractors and suppliers in such forms as provided by Landlord to Tenant upon request and a date down of the Landlord’s title policy, insuring no construction related exceptions including, but not limited to mechanic’s liens, resulting from work completed by or on behalf of Tenant.

If the Shopping Center or any premises (other than the Premises) located thereon suffers damage or destruction of a substantial nature (i.e., destruction of 10% or more of the Shopping Center), which damage or destruction does not render the Premises untenantable in whole or in part, Landlord shall after receipt of insurance proceeds cause such damage to be repaired and the Rent shall not be abated; provided, however, that Landlord shall have the right to be exercised by notice in writing to be delivered to Tenant within sixty (60) days from and after such occurrence to elect not to reconstruct the destroyed portion of the Shopping Center, and in such event this Lease and the tenancy hereby created shall cease as of the date of the occurrence, the Rent to be adjusted as of such date.
9.2 CONDEMNATION.
A. AWARD. If title to all or any portion of the Premises is taken by a public or quasi-public authority under any statute or by right of eminent domain of any governmental body, whether such loss or damage results from condemnation of part or all of the Premises or any portion of the parking area or service entrances and exits, Tenant shall not be entitled to participate or receive any part of the damages or award except where said award shall provide for moving or other reimbursable expenses for the Tenant under applicable statute in which event the latter sum shall be received by Tenant, and except that portion of any award allocated to the taking of Tenant’s trade fixtures, equipment and personal property, or to a loss of business by Tenant. None of the awards or payments to Landlord shall be subject to any diminution or apportionment on behalf of Tenant or otherwise.
19 |
B. SUBSTANTIAL OR MATERIAL TAKING OF PREMISES. Should any power of eminent domain be exercised after Tenant is in possession, such exercise shall not void or impair this Lease unless the amount of the Premises so taken is such as to substantially and materially impair the usefulness of the Premises for the purpose for which the same are hereby demised, in which event either party may cancel this Lease by notice to the other within sixty (60) days after possession is taken, and the Rent herein provided shall xxxxx as of the date possession is taken by the condemning authority.
C. PARTIAL TAKING OF PREMISES. If a portion of the Premises shall be taken as herein provided for public improvements or otherwise under the exercise of the right of eminent domain and the Premises shall continue to be reasonably suitable for the use which is herein authorized, then the Rent herein provided shall be reduced from the date of such taking in direct proportion to the reduction in usefulness of the Premises and the Lease shall continue in full force and effect.
D. If a portion of the Shopping Center shall be taken as herein provided for public improvements or otherwise under the exercise of the right of eminent domain, such exercise shall not void or impair the Lease unless the amount of the Shopping Center so taken, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, is such to substantially or materially impair the usefulness of the Shopping Center, in which event Landlord may cancel this Lease by notice to Tenant within sixty (60) days after possession is taken, the Rent to be adjusted as of such date.
ARTICLE X - ASSIGNMENT,
SUBLETTING, MORTGAGING AND SUBORDINATION
10.1 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING BY TENANT. Tenant may not and shall not assign this Lease, in whole or in part, nor sublet all or any part of the Premises, nor license concessions or lease departments therein, nor pledge or encumber by mortgage or other instruments any interest in this Lease (each individually and collectively referred to in this Section as a “Transfer”) without first obtaining the consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. This prohibition includes, without limitation, any subletting or assignment which would otherwise occur by operation of law, merger, consolidation, reorganization, transfer or other change of Tenant’s corporate, partnership or proprietary structure. Consent by Landlord to any transfer shall not constitute a waiver of the requirement for such consent to any subsequent Transfer. The acceptance of any Rent by Landlord from any alleged assignee or subtenant shall not constitute approval of the assignment or sublease of this Lease by the Landlord, and the consent by Landlord to one assignment or subletting of the Premises shall not constitute a waiver of Landlord’s rights hereunder. Tenant shall pay to Landlord a Transfer Fee of $2,000.00 for such written consent. In the event of any such assignment, subletting, licensing or granting of a concession made with the prior written consent of the Landlord as aforesaid, Tenant will nevertheless remain primarily liable for the performance of all the terms, conditions, and covenants of this Lease. Any Transfer shall be by agreement in a form and content acceptable to Landlord, and shall specify and require that each Transferee of this Lease by acceptance of any Transfer shall assume, be bound by, and be obligated to perform the terms and conditions of its sublessor and assignor under this Lease. A condition of such Transfer is the agreement of the parties that Landlord shall receive the full and complete Rent payment of the Transferee even though such payments may be in excess of the original Rent between Landlord and Tenant. It is the intent and understanding of the parties to this Lease that Tenant shall not receive any monetary benefit, in excess of the actual Rent obligation of Tenant, as agreed between the original Tenant and Landlord, through a Transfer to a third party. In the event of default of Tenant, Landlord at Landlord’s sole option may succeed to the position of Tenant as to any subtenant or licensee of Tenant.
10.2 ASSIGNMENT AND MORTGAGING BY LANDLORD.
A. TRANSFER BY LANDLORD. The owner of the Premises shall only remain liable for the Landlord’s obligations pursuant to the terms and limitations set forth in this Lease during its ownership of the Premises. So long as all sums held on Tenant’s behalf in trust or escrow by Landlord are paid over to any purchaser of the Premises, Landlord and the owner of the Premises shall be and are hereby relieved of all covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder after the date of sale of said Premises, and it shall be construed without further agreement between the parties that the purchaser has assumed and agreed to carry out any and all covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder from the date of such sale.
B. SUBORDINATION. This Lease is subordinate to any and all leases, mortgages or deeds of trust hereinafter placed upon the Shopping Center, now or in the future, or any part thereof, and to all future modifications, consolidations, replacements, extensions and renewals of, and all amendments and supplements to said leases, mortgages or deeds of trust. Notwithstanding such subordination, as aforesaid, this Lease, except as otherwise hereinafter provided including, but not limited to, an event of default by Tenant, shall not terminate or be divested by foreclosure or other default proceedings under said leases, mortgages, deeds of trust, or obligations secured thereby, and Tenant shall attorn to and recognize the landlord, mortgagee, trustee, beneficiary or the purchaser at the foreclosure sale in the event of such foreclosure or other default proceeding, as Landlord for the balance of the Term of this Lease, subject to all of the terms and provisions hereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall be self-operative, but Tenant acknowledges and agrees that as a material consideration inducing Landlord to enter into this Lease, Tenant shall acknowledge same by executing and delivering to Landlord, on demand at any time or times, any and all instruments in order to subordinate this Lease and Tenant’s rights hereunder, as aforesaid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or lessor may elect to give the rights and interests of Tenant under this Lease (excluding rights in and to insurance proceeds and condemnation awards) priority over the lien of its mortgage or deed of trust or the estate of its lease, as the case may be. In the event of such election and upon the mortgagee, beneficiary or lessor notifying Tenant of such election, the rights and interests of Tenant shall be deemed superior to and to have priority over the lien of said mortgage or deed of trust or the estate of such lease, as the case may be, whether this Lease is dated prior to or subsequent to the date of such mortgage, deed of trust or lease. In such event, Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever instruments may be required by such mortgagee, beneficiary or lessor to confirm such superiority on the form customarily used by such party. In the event of any act or omission by Landlord which would give Tenant the right to damages from Landlord or the right to terminate this Lease, Tenant will not xxx for such damages nor exercise any such right to terminate until (i) it shall have given written notice of the act or omission to Landlord and to the holder(s) of the indebtedness or other obligations secured by any mortgage or deed of trust affecting the Premises or of any ground or underlying lease, if the name and address of such holder(s) have been furnished to Tenant, and (ii) a reasonable period of time, in light both of the time required to effect a remedy and of the impact of the act or omission on Tenant’s business operations at the Premises, for remedying the act or omission has elapsed following the giving of the notice (which shall in no event be deemed any less than thirty (30) days), during which time Landlord and such holder(s), or either of them, and their agents or employees, will be entitled to enter upon the Premises and do therein whatever may be necessary to remedy the act or omission.
20 |
C. ESTOPPEL AND SUBORDINATION DOCUMENTS. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that as a material consideration inducing Landlord to enter into this Lease, Tenant agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all documents required to effectuate the provisions of this Section within seven (7) days after request thereof by Landlord. In the event that upon any sale, assignment, lease, mortgage or hypothecation of the Premises and/or the land thereunder by Landlord, a statement shall be required by Tenant, Tenant agrees to deliver and cause Guarantor to deliver in recordable form an Estoppel Certificate (if such be the case) that this Lease and Guaranty, as applicable, is in full force and effect and there are no defenses or offsets or Landlord defaults thereto, or stating those claimed by Tenant, the dates to which Rent or other sums have been paid in advance, and any other such certifications of Lease terms as may reasonably be required and such specific subordination agreement on Lender’s form as may reasonably be required by Lender, it being intended that any such statements delivered pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser, mortgagee, assignee or beneficiary. Tenant hereby grants Landlord a power of attorney to execute any document in the name of Tenant in the event Tenant fails to execute, acknowledge and deliver any document required to effectuate the provisions of this Section within seven (7) days after request therefor by Landlord.
D.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SALES FIGURES. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that as a material consideration inducing Landlord to enter
into this Lease, Tenant shall, upon request from Landlord, provide a copy of Tenant’s latest available financial statements
and year-to-date sales figures, certified by Tenant as being true and correct. Tenant agrees to provide such
statements within ten (10) days of Landlord’s reasonable request. In addition, within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s
year end, and fifteen (15) days after each calendar quarter, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord monthly sales figures, certified
by Tenant as being true and correct, for the prior year and/or quarter, as the case may be.
E. LENDER APPROVAL. If Landlord deems it necessary or appropriate it may submit this Lease to its mortgagee for approval. In such event this Lease and all of Landlord’s covenants and obligations hereunder are expressly contingent upon a formal, approval by such mortgagee. Landlord shall inform Tenant not later than thirty (30) calendar days after Landlord’s execution of the Lease whether or not the mortgagee has approved or disapproved the Lease. If the mortgagee disapproves the Lease it shall be deemed void and of no further force or effect.
ARTICLE XI - DEFAULT AND REMEDIES FOR DEFAULT
11.1 TENANT EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an event of default by Tenant hereunder:
(1) The filing of a petition by or against Tenant or any Guarantor for adjudication as a bankrupt or insolvent, or for its reorganization or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of Tenant’s property; an assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors or the taking of possession of the property of Tenant by any governmental officer or agency pursuant to statutory authority for the dissolution or liquidation of Tenant.
(2) Failure of Tenant to pay when due any installment of Rent hereunder or any other sum herein required to be paid by Tenant, and the continuance of such nonpayment for five (5) days after such installment is due.
(3) Abandonment, vacation or misuse of the Premises by Tenant.
(4) Tenant fails to observe or perform any of the covenants with respect to a Transfer.
(5) Tenant’s failure to perform any other covenant or condition of this Lease within twenty (20) days after written notice and demand from Landlord.
11.2 REMEDIES OF LANDLORD FOR DEFAULT BY TENANT. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, Landlord shall have the right, then or at any time thereafter, and while such event of default shall continue, and in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies, relief or rights available to Landlord at law or equity or contained in this Lease, to do any of the following:
(1) Landlord by itself or its authorized agents may cure the default and charge Tenant for the costs of such cure, which charge shall be due and payable as Rent under this Lease immediately upon written notice to Tenant.
(2) Landlord may enforce every provision of the Lease in accordance with its terms including, but not limited to enforcement of the payment of Rent provisions by a suit or suits in equity or at law. In furtherance thereof, Landlord shall have the right to obtain reports on Tenant’s (and any other party responsible for Tenant’s performance) credit worthiness from the three (3) major credit reporting agencies or any other credit agency customarily used by Landlord, and Tenant hereby consents thereto.
21 |
(3) Landlord may (a) exercise its rights as secured party under its security agreement with Tenant as provided in Section 5.2 above; (b) apply all or part of the Security Deposit to the default of Tenant; or (c) exercise its rights under the Guaranty.
(4) Landlord shall have the right to terminate the Tenant’s right of possession of the Premises without terminating this Lease and, therefore, to reenter the Premises to assume and take possession of the whole or any part thereof, and to remove all persons or personal property by direct or summary action, or in a different type of suit or proceeding, by force or otherwise, without being deemed liable of trespass or other actionable wrong by reason thereof, and without being liable for the damages therefor or in connection therewith, and, after demand made therefor, Tenant or anyone in possession claiming under Tenant shall be deemed guilty of unlawful detainer and subject to such summary judgment or other action as may be provided by law. Additionally, Landlord may with or without terminating the Lease relet the Premises as the agent for and in the name of the Tenant, at any rental readily acceptable, applying the proceeds first to reimburse Landlord for all costs of enforcement of this Lease including attorneys’ fees and court costs, if any, second, to costs to re-rent the Premises including, but not limited to, tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions, third, to reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s entire cost and expense in preparing the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy, fourth, to the payment of such Rent as same comes due, and, fifth, toward the fulfillment of the other covenants and agreements of Tenant herein contained. Tenant shall not be entitled to any residual amount remaining after payment of all of the foregoing sums. Tenant hereby agrees that if Landlord shall recover or take possession of said Premises as aforesaid, and be unable to relet and rent the same so as to realize a sum equal to the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent hereby provided, Tenant shall pay to Landlord any loss or difference of Minimum Rent and Additional Rent for the remainder of the Term. Landlord may, but is not required to, assign this Lease to Guarantor, if any, in the name of and on behalf of Tenant or may enter into a new lease with Guarantor on the same terms as this Lease or upon different terms. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has been granted Tenant’s power of attorney coupled with an interest in order to effectuate Landlord’s rights hereunder in the event that Tenant fails or refuses to do so within five (5) days of notice from Landlord.
(5) Landlord, irrespective of the date on which its right of reentry shall have accrued or be exercised, shall have the right, whether for rent or possession or otherwise, to terminate this Lease and the tenancy hereby created. Except to the extent required by applicable law, Landlord is under no affirmative duty to maximize the rent collected from any replacement tenant or otherwise mitigate Landlord’s damages and Tenant waives any legal or equitable right or defense that Landlord mitigate its damages. This right to terminate is exercisable by a written notice to Tenant, which written notice may be part of a notice of default previously delivered to Tenant, and, as such, may be conditioned upon Tenant’s failure to cure the default and the event of default. The termination may be made effective as of the event of default, or thereafter, and, if not otherwise specified, will be deemed to be effective immediately. Upon such termination, Landlord shall be entitled to and may take immediate possession of the Premises, any other notice or demand being hereby waived. Such termination does not, however, release Tenant from liability for Rent then overdue or remaining under the Lease but shall, if permitted by the laws of the state where the Premises are located, operate to accelerate the entire balance of the Term Rent and additional charges due over the entire Lease Term, which shall become immediately due and payable by Tenant, along with all overdue Rent and charges.
If Landlord terminates this Lease as provided above, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages and other sums which Landlord is entitled to recover under any provision of this Lease or at law or in equity or otherwise, including, but not limited to, all of the accrued Minimum Rent and Additional Rent for the period up to and including such Termination Date, as well as all other additional sums payable by Tenant or for which Tenant is liable or in respect of which Tenant has agreed to indemnify Landlord under any of the provisions of this Lease which may be then owing and unpaid and all costs and expenses, including without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord in the enforcement of its rights and remedies hereunder and, in addition, any damages provable by Landlord as a matter of law including, without limitation, an amount equal to the then present value (using a discount rate of five percent (5%)) of the excess of the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent provided to be paid for the remainder of the Term over the fair market rental value of the Premises (determined at the date of termination of this Lease by Landlord in Landlord’s reasonable discretion) after deduction of all anticipated expenses of reletting. In the alternative, Landlord shall have the right, at Landlords option, from time to time, to recover from Tenant, and Tenant shall remain liable for all Minimum Rent, Additional Rent and other amounts due and owing under this Lease, plus (x) damages equal to all other sums which would have accrued under this Lease after the date of termination had it not been terminated, such damages to be due and payable as such sums would have become due, less (y) such amounts as Landlord may receive from reletting, if any, after first paying all costs of such reletting, including, without limitation, brokerage commissions and the costs of reasonable repairs, alterations, additions and redecorations, and the expenses of re-entry. The net amounts of rent from any re-letting collected remaining after such expenses shall operate only as an off-setting credit against the amount due hereafter with any excess or residue belonging to Landlord solely. Should the fair market rental value of the Premises after deduction of all anticipated expenses of reletting exceed the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent provided to be paid by Tenant for the remainder of the Term, Landlord shall not be obligated to pay to Tenant any part of such excess or to credit any part of such excess against any other sums or damages for which Tenant may be liable to Landlord.
(6) Tenant shall reimburse and pay to Landlord all costs and expenses of Landlord in connection with Landlord’s enforcement of its rights and remedies hereunder, including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees all of which shall be deemed Additional Rent.
(7) Tenant shall reimburse and pay to Landlord all costs and expenses of Landlord in connection with Landlord’s preparation of the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy including, but not limited to, Landlord’s Work all of which shall be deemed Additional Rent.
22 |
(8) Landlord shall have the right to pursue any and all other rights and remedies available at law and in equity.
(9) To the extent required by applicable law, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the damages it suffers as a result of Tenant’s default under this Lease; provided, however, that Tenant agrees that (i) Landlord will have satisfied its obligation to mitigate damages if Landlord endeavors, in good faith, to re-lease the Premises, (ii) Landlord will not be required to give preference to the Premises over other vacant space in the Shopping Center or any other property owned or controlled by Landlord or any affiliates thereof, (iii) Landlord may reject any prospective tenant who, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, is disreputable, whose business does not enhance the Shopping Center, who does not have sufficient business experience, or who lacks the financial ability to perform the tenant’s obligations under Landlord’s then current form Lease, (iv) under no circumstances shall Landlord be required or obligated to relet or attempt to relet the Premises for any period of time beyond the then applicable Termination Date, and (v) Landlord may reject any offer to lease the Premises at a rate which is less than the rate being charged for comparable space in the Shopping Center or on terms that are less favorable than those contained in this Lease or which (in Landlord’s reasonable discretion) is not in the best interests of the Shopping Center.
11.3 NON-WAIVER OF REMEDIES.
A. It is expressly agreed that neither the taking of possession of the Premises nor the institution of any proceedings by way of unlawful detainer, ejection, dispossessory, eviction, quiet title, or otherwise, to secure possession of said Premises, nor the reentry by Landlord with or without the institution of such proceedings, nor the issuance of a writ of possession, nor the re-renting or subletting of said Premises, shall operate to relieve Tenant of its obligations to pay Rent and other amounts due hereunder, or operate to terminate this Lease in whole or in part, nor of itself constitute an exercise of Landlord’s option to do so, but only by the giving of the written notice specifically specifying termination shall such termination be effected.
B. Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to relet the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver upon the initiation of the Landlord to protect the Landlord’s interest under this Lease, shall not constitute a termination of the Lease.
C. Waiver by Landlord of any default, breach or failure of Tenant under this Lease shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent or different default, breach or failure. In case of a breach by Tenant of any of the covenants or undertakings of Tenant, Landlord nevertheless may accept from Tenant any full or partial payments hereunder without in any way waiving Landlord’s right to exercise the remedies hereinbefore provided for by reason of any other breach or lapse which was in existence at the time such payment or payments were accepted by Landlord. Following any default by Tenant, Landlord may apply any payment to any Rent then owing, or damages, cost and fees in the manner it chooses in its sole discretion.
D. The specific remedies to which Landlord may resort under the terms of this Lease are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies or means of redress to which they may be lawfully entitled in case of any breach or threatened breach by either of them or of any provisions of this Lease.
11.4 DEFAULTS BY LANDLORD. If Landlord fails to perform any of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease, which failure continues for more than thirty (30) days after Tenant’s delivery of written notice to Landlord specifying such failure, or if such failure is of a nature to require more than thirty (30) days for remedy and continues beyond the time reasonably necessary to cure (and Landlord has not undertaken procedures to cure the failure within such thirty (30) day period and diligently pursued such efforts to complete such cure), Tenant may, in addition to any other remedy available at law or in equity, after a second written notice to Landlord and Landlord’s failure to cure within ten (10) business days after receipt of such second written notice, at its option, incur any expense necessary to perform the obligation of Landlord specified in such notice and invoice Landlord for the cost thereof. In no event shall Tenant withhold, deduct or offset any expense or claim from the payment of Rent.
ARTICLE XII - GENERAL PROVISIONS
12.1 BROKERS. Tenant warrants that it has employed no broker who has or may have a legitimate claim to a commission arising of Tenant’s acceptance of this Lease. Any obligations or potential obligations for commission to any brokers who have a claim arising out of the actions of Tenant are the sole obligation of Tenant. Should a claim be made upon Landlord or the Premises by any brokers who in Landlord’s discretion Landlord determines to have legitimate claim for commission arising out of this transaction, whether such claim is ultimately upheld or not, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the claim either by paying the amount claimed to be due or by any other means. Tenant shall reimburse and pay to Landlord on demand any amount so paid by Landlord and all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the per annum rate equal to the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) or the maximum rate permitted by law from the respective date of Landlord’s notice to Tenant of the making of the payment or of the incurring of the cost and expense, including such attorneys’ fees. Any commission or other compensation due brokers employed by Landlord shall be the sole responsibility of Landlord.
12.2 NO PARTNERSHIP. Notwithstanding any other express or implied provision of this Lease, it is understood that Landlord does not in any way claim to be or propose a partnership or joint venture with Tenant in the conduct of Tenant’s business.
23 |
12.3 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All rights, obligations and liabilities herein given to, or imposed upon, the respective parties hereto shall extend to and bind the several and respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, sublessees and assigns of said parties, subject to the provisions of Article X and except to the extent otherwise provided in this Lease, provided, however, that the liability of Landlord hereunder and any successor in interest and title to the Premises shall be limited to his or its interest in the Shopping Center, and no other assets of the Landlord other than his or its interest in the Shopping Center shall be affected by reason of any liability which said Landlord or successor in interest may have under this Lease. If there shall be more than one Tenant, they shall all be bound jointly and severally by the terms, covenants and agreements herein and the word “Tenant” shall be deemed and taken to mean each and every person or party mentioned as a Tenant herein, be the same one or more; and if there shall be more than one Tenant, any notice required or permitted by the terms of this Lease may be given by or to any one thereof and shall have the same force and effect as if given by or to all thereof.
12.4 NOTICES. Wherever in this Lease it shall be required or permitted that notice or demand be given or served by either party to this Lease to or on the other, such notice or demand shall not be deemed to have been duly given or served unless made in writing and either personally delivered or forwarded by Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested, postage prepaid, nationally-recognized overnight courier service or personal delivery to the address for each party provided in the Abstract of Lease. Such addresses may be changed from time to time by either party by serving notices as above provided. While Tenant is in possession of the Premises, notices to the Tenant may also be delivered or forwarded by Certified Mail to the Premises. Notice shall be deemed given when delivered (or upon refusal of acceptance of delivery), if given by personal delivery, otherwise one (1) business day following delivery to a nationally-recognized overnight courier service or three (3) business days following deposit in the United States mail.
12.5 SCOPE AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
A. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Lease shall be considered to be the only agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the Premises. It is understood that there are no oral agreements between the parties hereto affecting this Lease, and this Lease supersedes and cancels any and all previous negotiations, arrangements, brochures, letters of intent, agreements and understandings, written or oral, if any, between the parties hereto or displayed by Landlord to Tenant with respect to the subject matter thereof, and none shall be used to interpret or construe this Lease. All negotiations and oral agreements acceptable to Landlord and Tenant have been merged into and are included in this Lease.
B. ARTICLE HEADINGS AND CAPTIONS. The headings or captions of Articles in this Lease are for convenience and reference only and they in no way define, limit, or describe the scope or intent of this Lease or the provisions of such Articles.
C. GENDER AND INTERPRETATION OF TERMS AND PROVISIONS. As used in this Lease and whenever required by the context thereof, each number, either singular or plural, shall include all numbers, and each gender shall include all genders. Landlord and Tenant, as used in this Lease, or in any other instrument referred to in or made a part of this Lease, shall likewise include both singular and plural, a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, individual or person acting in any fiduciary capacity as executor, administrator, trustee, or in any other representative capacity. All covenants herein contained on the part of Tenant shall be joint and several.
D. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is hereby expressly declared to be of the essence of this Lease and of each and every covenant, term, condition and provision hereof.
E. IMPARTIAL CONSTRUCTION. The language in all parts of this Lease shall be in all cases construed as a whole according to its fair meaning and not strictly for nor against either Landlord or Tenant.
F. GOVERNING LAW. The laws of the State in which the Premises are located shall govern the validity and enforceability of this Lease. Jurisdiction and venue shall be deemed valid and appropriate in the county and state where the Shopping Center is located.
G. PARTIAL INVALIDITY. If any term, covenant or condition of this Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term, covenant or condition to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable shall not be affected thereby and each term, covenant or condition of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
H. AMENDMENT. Oral agreements that modify or are in conflict with any of the terms of this Lease shall be without force and effect. All amendments must be in writing executed by the parties or their respective successors in interest.
I. TENANT’S CONFLICTS. Tenant hereby covenants, warrants and represents that by executing this Lease and by the operation of the Premises under this Lease, it is not violating, has not violated and will not be violating any restrictive covenant or agreement contained in any other lease or contract affecting Tenant or any affiliate, associate or any other person or entity with whom or with which Tenant is related or connected financially or otherwise. Tenant hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless Landlord, any future owner of the fee or any part thereof, and any mortgagee thereof against and from all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, paid, suffered or incurred by them or any of them as a result of any breach of the foregoing covenant. Tenant’s liability under this covenant extends to the acts and omissions of any subtenant, and any agent, servant, employee or licensee of any subtenant of Tenant.
24 |
J. LANDLORD, OWNER OR OWNER’S BENEFICIARY OR BENEFICIARIES THEREOF. Wherever in this Lease Landlord is granted a right of consent or approval, a right of inspection, a right to add improvements to the Shopping Center, a right to designate repairs, maintenance or improvements required to be made by Tenant or changes in any plans submitted by Tenant or any other act which involved the exercise of discretion on the part of the Landlord hereunder, such right or exercise of discretion may be exercised by Landlord, owner or owner’s beneficiary or beneficiaries thereof. Any obligation set forth in this Lease of the Landlord, or any obligation of Tenant which Landlord is given the right to perform on Tenant’s behalf, shall be conclusively deemed to have been performed by owner’s beneficiary or beneficiaries thereof. Any obligation of Tenant contained in this Lease to indemnify, defend or hold Landlord harmless (or Landlord and any other party), or to maintain and pay for insurance for the benefit of Landlord (or Landlord and any other party), or to waive any claim against Landlord (or Landlord and any other party) is hereby extended so that such obligations shall run in favor of Landlord, owner and owner’s beneficiary or beneficiaries thereof. Wherever in this Lease it is acknowledged or stated that Landlord has made no representation or warranties or promises with respect to any matter, such provisions shall be deemed to acknowledge or state that neither Landlord nor owner nor owner’s beneficiary or beneficiaries thereof, nor employee of Landlord has made such representations or warranties or promises. All rights to enforce any provision of this Lease on the part of Landlord or any rights to exercise any remedies of Landlord, either specifically provided for herein or at law or equity, may be exercised by Landlord, owner or owner’s beneficiary or beneficiaries thereof, in their own name, alone or in conjunction with Landlord or any of the foregoing parties.
K. EXECUTION OF LEASE BY LANDLORD. The submission of this document for examination and negotiation does not constitute an offer to lease, or a reservation of, or option for, the Premises and this document becomes effective and binding only upon the execution and delivery hereby by Landlord and Tenant. The execution of this Lease by Tenant shall be deemed an offer by Tenant to lease the Premises from Landlord upon the terms and conditions contained in the Lease, which offer may be accepted by Landlord only by the execution of this Lease by Landlord. All negotiations, considerations, representations and understandings between Landlord and Tenant are incorporated herein and may be modified or altered only by agreement in writing between Landlord and Tenant, and no act or omission of any employee or agent of Landlord or of Landlord’s broker shall alter, change or modify any of the provisions hereof.
L. JURY WAIVER. Landlord and Tenant waive their right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim brought by either of them against the other, or with respect to any issue or defense raised therein, including the right to aN advisory jury (except for personal injury and property damage), on any matters whatsoever arising ouT of, or in any way connected with this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises including summary proceeding and possession actions, any emergency statutory or other statutory remedy.
M. RENTS FROM REAL PROPERTY. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that it is their intent that all Rent and other charges payable to the Landlord under this Lease shall qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, (the “Code”) and the Department of the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Regulations”). Should the Code or the Regulations, or interpretations thereof by the Internal Revenue Service contained in revenue rulings or other similar public pronouncements, be changed so that any Rent no longer so qualifies as “rent from real property” for purposes of Section 856(d) of the Code and Regulations, or any successor provision thereto, then the parties agree to execute such further instrument as may reasonably be required by the Landlord in order to give effect to the foregoing provisions of this Section.
N. INDEPENDENT COVENANTS. The covenants of Tenant to pay Rent and any and all other amounts payable by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease are independent covenants, and Tenant shall not have the right to hold back, offset, or fail to pay any such amounts for default by Landlord or any other reason whatsoever.
