Section 2.12. Compliance with Law.
Unless otherwise fully disclosed in this agreement, and its Exhibits:
(a) | The Company has not been in, nor has any material Liability in respect of any, violation of, and to Sellers’ Knowledge, no event has occurred or circumstance exists that (with or without notice or lapse of time) would constitute or result in a violation by the Company of, or failure on the part of the Company to comply with, in any material respect, , any Laws that are or were applicable to it or the conduct or operation of its business or the ownership or use of any of its Assets, and no Proceeding is pending, or to the Knowledge of the Sellers, threatened, alleging any such violation or noncompliance. |
(b) | The Company has all Permits and Licenses necessary for the conduct of its business as presently conducted, and (i) each of the Permits and Licenses is in full force and effect, (ii) the Company is in compliance, in all material respects, with the terms, provisions and conditions thereof, (iii) there are no outstanding violations, notices of noncompliance, Orders or Proceedings adversely affecting any of the Permits or Licenses, and (iv) to the Knowledge of the Sellers, no condition (including, without limitation, the execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby) exists and no event has occurred which (whether with or without notice, lapse of time or the occurrence of any other event) would reasonably be expected to result in the suspension or revocation of any of the Permits other than by expiration of the term set forth therein. Schedule 2.12 sets forth a list of all the Permits and Licenses, and the Sellers have furnished to the Purchaser true and complete copies of all of the Permits. |
Section 2.13. Title to Properties.
(a) | Real Property. The Company does not own, nor has owned, any real property. | |
Schedule 2.15 includes a true, correct and complete list of (i) all Contracts (and all amendments, modifications, supplements, renewals, extensions, and guarantees related thereto) under which the Company leases any real property as a lessee thereof (such Contracts, together with all amendments, modifications, supplements, renewals, exhibits, Exhibits, extensions and guarantees related thereto, are hereby referred to individually as a “Real Property Lease” and collectively, as the “Real Property Leases”) and (ii) the street address of the real property that is leased pursuant to each Real Property Lease (each, a “Leased Real Property” and collectively, the “Leased Real Properties”). The Company has furnished to the Purchaser true, correct and complete copies of all Real Property Leases. No Person other than the Company has any option or right to terminate any of the Real Property Leases other than as expressly set forth in such Real Property Leases. The Company is in compliance with such leases (including, without limitation, the Real Property Leases) and holds a valid and enforceable leasehold interest therein, free of any Liens, other than to the lessors of such property or Assets or Permitted Liens. There are no parties physically occupying or using any portion of any of the Leased Real Properties nor do any other parties have the right to physically occupy or use any portion of the Leased Real Properties, in each case, other than the Company. |
13
(b) Personal Property. The Company (a) owns good, valid, and marketable title, free and clear of all Liens and Encumbrances (other than Permitted Liens), to all of its tangible Assets, and (b) is not obligated under any Contract, or subject to any restriction, that presently materially impairs, has materially impaired, or might in the future reasonably be expected to materially impair the Company’s right, title or interest in or to any of its tangible Assets. The Company owns, leases under valid leases, or has use of and/or valid access under valid agreements to all facilities, machinery, equipment, and other tangible Assets necessary for the conduct of its business as presently conducted and or proposed to be conducted. |
Section 2.14. Tax Matters.
While this is a purchase of Membership Interests in the Company it is still key that the assets are not encumbered, and that no contingent liabilities exist that might endanger the successful use of the assets and continuation of the Business from which the value of the purchase consideration has been derived. As such, the Sellers warrant:
(a) | The Company has timely filed when due all Tax Returns required by applicable Law to be filed with respect to the Company, and all such Tax Returns were true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the time of such filing, including but not limited to sales tax obligations in all states, or countries, in which it has conducted business, or shipped products. | |
(b) | All Taxes due and payable by or on behalf of the Company (whether or not shown on any Tax Return), or for which the Company may be liable if required to have been paid, have been paid. Any Liability of the Company for Taxes not yet due and payable do not exceed the amount shown on the face of the Interim Balance Sheet (disregarding timing differences), as adjusted for the period thereafter through the Closing Date assuming the business is operated in the ordinary course. It is agreed that Sales and Occupancy Tax are paid annually and that there will be no accrual or purchase price adjustment for these taxes. | |
(c) | Schedule 2.14sets forth each jurisdiction in which the Company is subject to Tax and the type of Tax to which the Company is subject. | |
(d) | There is no Proceeding now against, asserted or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened, with respect to the Company and any Tax. | |
(e) | No claim has been made by any Governmental Entity in a jurisdiction where the Company has not filed a Ta x Return that it is or may be subject to Tax by such jurisdiction, nor, to the Knowledge of the Sellers, is any such assertion threatened. | |

ii. | any Purchaser Broker Fees; or | |
iii. | any failure of the Purchaser to perform or observe any term, provision, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in any schedule, instrument or other document delivered pursuant to or made part of this Agreement. |
Section 7.4. Limitations on Indemnification.
(a) | Other than in the case of fraud, willful breach, or intentional misrepresentation, the aggregate Liability of any Person required to provide indemnification under this ARTICLE VII (each, an “Indemnifying Party”) in respect of all Losses for which an Indemnifying Party shall indemnify a Person entitled to indemnification under this ARTICLE VII (each an “Indemnified Party”) pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.3(a)(i), as the case may be, shall not exceed two hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply to Losses suffered by any Indemnified Parties with respect to breaches of the Excluded Representations, for which the maximum amount recoverable by any such Indemnified Party shall be an amount equal to the Purchase Price. |
(b) | An Indemnifying Party shall have no Liability in respect of any Loss for which such Indemnifying Party shall indemnify an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.3(a)(i), as the case may be, unless and until the amount that would otherwise be recoverable from the Indemnifying Party in respect of any such Loss, when aggregated with any other amounts so recoverable from such Indemnifying Party pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, exceeds twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) (the “Threshold”), and in the event the aggregate amount of any such Loss exceeds the Threshold, the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for the aggregate amount of any such Loss, regardless of the Threshold, subject to the Cap; provided, however, such Threshold shall not apply to any Loss suffered by an Indemnified Party with respect to breaches of the Excluded Representations, fraud, willful breach, or intentional misrepresentation, though Losses suffered with respect to breaches of the Excluded Representations or fraud, willful breach, or intentional misrepresentation shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether other Losses exceed the Threshold. |
(c) | For purposes of determining whether there has been a breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, or the amount of any Loss related to a breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall be considered without regard to any “material,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar qualifications contained therein. |
(d) | All indemnification rights hereunder shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transaction, and any claims may be brought by an Indemnified Party under this ARTICLE VII, regardless of any investigation, inquiry, or examination made for or on behalf of, or any Knowledge of, any Indemnified Party, or the acceptance by the Purchaser or the Sellers of any certificate or opinion. |
44
(e) | In the event that the Sellers shall have an indemnification obligation to any Purchaser Indemnified Party, the Purchaser shall have the right to offset the amount thereof against any portion of the Purchase Price owed to the Sellers, including, without limitation, the Deferred Consideration (but not including any amount due to either Seller in her or his capacity as employee under her or his Employment Agreement), and any such offset shall be deemed to satisfy the indemnification obligation to which it relates to the extent of the offset. If the Seller Representative has disputed any claim for Loss by any Purchaser Indemnified Party in accordance herewith and such dispute has not been resolved, the Purchaser shall have the right to offset the amount of such Loss against any portion of the Purchase Price owed to the Sellers (but not including any amount due to either Seller in her or his capacity as employee under her or his Employment Agreement), until such claim has been resolved pursuant to (a) a written settlement agreement entered into by the Purchaser and the Seller Representative or (b) a final decision, order or award issued in accordance with Section 1.5, Section 8.12 and Section 8.13, as applicable. |
(f) | Subject to Section 7.5(a), no exercise of, nor failure to exercise, the rights set forth in this Section 7.4 shall constitute an election of remedies or limit any Indemnified Party’s other rights hereunder or otherwise. Such remedy shall be in addition to and not in limitation of any injunctive relief or other rights or remedies to which any Indemnified Party is or may be entitled at law or equity or under this Agreement (including any exhibits hereto). The exercise of rights in good faith hereunder, whether or not ultimately determined to be justified, shall not constitute a breach of any covenant hereunder. |
(g) | In the event any Loss related to a claim by an Indemnified Party is covered by insurance, the Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to recover from the Indemnifying Party (and shall refund amounts received up to the amount of indemnification actually received) with respect to such Loss (but only to the extent the Indemnified Party actually receives an insurance payment with respect to such covered claim and except to the extent any additional amounts become payable to the insurer through adjustments to past, present or future premiums or other similar mechanisms within the three (3)-year period following the date of the claim giving rise to such adjustments). |
Section 7.5. Claim Procedures.
(a) | Notice. Each Indemnified Party agrees that after it becomes aware of facts giving rise to a claim by it for indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE VII, such Indemnified Party shall promptly (but in no event later than one hundred twenty (120) days after becoming aware of such facts) assert its claim for indemnification under this ARTICLE VII (each a “Claim”) by providing a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party specifying, in reasonable detail, the nature and basis for such Claim. All Claim Notices delivered by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties to Sellers as Indemnifying Party shall be given to the Seller Representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Party’s failure to send or delay in sending a Claim Notice within such one-hundred-twenty (120)-day period will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from Liability hereunder with respect to such Claim (i) except to the extent and only to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay, and (ii) except that a failure to send a Claim Notice in respect of a Loss as to which a Claim may otherwise be made hereunder prior to sixty (60) days after the survival period for such Loss shall unconditionally relieve an Indemnifying Party from her, his, or its indemnification obligations with respect to such Loss. |
45
(b) | If any Proceeding is begun, made, or instituted by a third party, other than a Tax Claim, as a result of which an Indemnifying Party may become obligated to an Indemnified Party hereunder, such Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice to the Indemnifying Party, or the Seller Representative, as applicable. The Indemnifying Party agrees to defend, contest, or otherwise protect the Indemnified Party against any Proceeding at its sole cost and expense. The Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate at its own expense in the defense thereof by counsel of the Indemnified Party’s choice and shall in any event cooperate with and assist the Indemnifying Party to the extent reasonably possible. If the Indemnifying Party fails timely to defend, contest, or otherwise protect against such Proceeding or send a reservation of rights as set forth in clause (A) below, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to do so, including, without limitation, the right to make any compromise or settlement thereof, and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover the entire cost thereof from the Indemnifying Party, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, disbursements, and amounts paid as the result of such Proceeding, and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by any determination made in such Proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Proceeding, (A) it will be conclusively established for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification, unless the Purchaser delivers written notice to the Indemnified Party reserving the right to deny indemnification and/or defense of the Proceeding thereafter (in which case the Indemnified Party may assume the defense of such Proceeding unless such reservation of rights is withdrawn within thirty (30) days), (B) no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s consent unless (i) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law and no adverse effect as to any Indemnified Party on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnified Party and (ii) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party, and (C) the Indemnified Party will have no Liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent. |
46
(c) | Tax Claims. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Proceeding for or with respect to Taxes of which indemnity may be sought against the Sellers (a “Tax Claim”) is asserted in writing against the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall notify the Seller Representative of such Tax Claim within fifteen (15) Business Days of receipt thereof, or such earlier time if necessary in order to allow the Seller Representative to timely respond to such Tax Claim and shall give the Seller Representative such information with respect thereto as the Seller Representative may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Purchaser’s failure or delay to give such prompt notice shall not relieve the Sellers of any of their indemnification obligations under this Section 7.5(c) except to the extent and only to the extent a Seller is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay. The Sellers may discharge, at any time, their indemnification obligations under this Section 7.5(c) by paying to the Purchaser the amount payable pursuant to such Tax Claim calculated as of the date of such payment. The Sellers may, at their own expense, participate in such Tax Claim and, upon notice to Purchaser, jointly control (in the case of Tax Claims with respect to Straddle Periods) or assume (in the case of Tax Claims that relates solely to a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date) the defense of any such Ta x Claim. If the Sellers assume such defense, the Sellers shall have the sole discretion as to the conduct of such defense; provided that, (i) the Purchaser shall have the right (but not the duty) to observe and comment on the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Sellers, (ii) to the extent that the settlement of such Tax Claim could be expected to have an adverse effect on the liability for Taxes of the Company with respect to any taxable period ending after the Closing Date, the Sellers may not settle any such Tax Claim without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (iii) the Sellers shall keep the Purchaser informed of material developments relating to such Tax Claim. Whether or not the Sellers choose to defend or prosecute any claim, all of the Parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. If the Sellers elect not to assume the defense of any Tax Claim under this Section 7.5(c), then the Purchaser shall have the right (but not the obligation) at its election to assume the defense of such Tax Claim, and defend or prosecute such Tax Claim (including any settlement, or compromise thereof) as the Purchaser shall determine in its sole discretion. |
Section 7.6. Exclusive Remedy.
From and after the Closing, other than in the case of fraud, willful breach, or intentional misrepresentation, the sole and exclusive remedy for any breach or misrepresentation, or alleged breach or misrepresentation, of any representation or warranty or any covenant or agreement in this Agreement, shall be indemnification in accordance with this ARTICLE VII; provided, that nothing herein shall limit the availability of remedies pursuant to Section 8.10.
47

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, Landlord hereby leases unto Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, the Premises for the period commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter for the duration of the Term. The terms and provisions of this Lease (excluding specifically, the payment of Base Rent) shall become effective on the Effective Date.
On or before the Commencement Date, Landlord shall construct or install in the Premises the Improvements (as defined in Exhibit “C”) pursuant to the terms and conditions of attached Exhibit “C”. Promptly following the substantial completion of the Improvements in the Premises, Landlord shall deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant. Landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant with Landlord’s Work substantially complete on or before the Estimated Commencement Date; provided, however, if for any reason Landlord fails to deliver possession of the Premises with the Improvements substantially complete on or before the Estimated Commencement Date, then this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if Landlord shall be delayed in substantially completing the Improvements due to a Tenant Delay (as defined in Exhibit “C”). then the Commencement Date shall occur on the date the Improvements would have been substantially complete but for such Tenant Delay, as the same may be certified by Landlord’s architect and/or construction manager.
3
Within a reasonable time of the Premises being ready for occupancy by Tenant, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a Commencement Date Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit “D-l” and Acceptance of Premises in the form attached as Exhibit “D-2” and made a part hereof. Tenant shall execute the Commencement Date Agreement and Acceptance of Premises and return a signed copy to Landlord within five (5) days of its receipt of same, but in any event prior to occupying the Premises. As of the Commencement Date, Tenant takes and accepts from Landlord the Premises “as is,” upon the terms and conditions herein contained, in its then condition, Tenant agreeing that such condition is suited for the uses intended by Tenant.
3. | BASE RENT AND DEPOSIT. |
A. Rent. Commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing on the first day of each and every calendar month thereafter during the Lease Term, in advance and without notice, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Base Rent for the Premises. The Base Rent for any fractional month shall be prorated on a per diem basis. “Additional Rent” shall mean any and all other charges due under this Lease other than Base Rent and which shall specifically include, without limitation, charges under Sections 4, 5 and 14. “Rent” (which term shall include Base Rent and Additional Rent as herein described) shall be paid to Landlord, without deduction or offset, in lawful money of the United States of America at the offices o Landlord set forth in Section 1 .P. above, or its property manager located in the Project, or to such other person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing. On the date of execution hereof Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the first month’s Base Rent plus the Deposit.
B. Deposit. The Deposit shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance and observance by Tenant of all of the agreements, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease to be performed or observed by Tenant, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest thereon. In the event Tenant fails to perform or observe any of the agreements, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease to be performed or observed by it, then at Landlord’s option, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, apply the Deposit, or so much thereof as may be necessary, to remedy any such failure by Tenant. Tenant shall immediately upon request pay to Landlord any sum necessary to restore the Deposit to the full amount specified in Section l.L. If Tenant complies with all of the terms of this Lease, the Deposit shall be returned to Tenant within sixty (60) days following the completion of year end net charge reconciliations for the Building for the calendar year in which this Lease expires or is terminated, less any sums payable by Tenant to Landlord, unless specifically prohibited by law. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to apply the Deposit to any Rent due hereunder. In the event of an act of bankruptcy by or insolvency of Tenant, or the appointment of a receiver for Tenant or a general assignment for the benefit of Tenant’s creditors, then the Deposit shall be deemed immediately assigned to Landlord. The right to retain the Deposit shall be in addition and not alternative to Landlord’s other remedies under this Lease or as may be provided by law and shall not be affected by summary proceedings or other proceedings to recover possession of the Premises. In the event of a sale or transfer of Landlord’s interest in the Premises or the Building or a lease by Landlord of the Building, Landlord shall have the right to transfer the within described Deposit to the purchaser or lessee, as the case may be, and following such purchaser’s or lessee’s assumption of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall be relieved of all liability to Tenant for the return of such Deposit. Tenant shall look solely to the new owner or lessee for the return of said Deposit. In the event Landlord elects not to transfer the Deposit to such purchaser or lessee, then Landlord shall return the Deposit (less any amounts due and payable to Landlord) to Tenant contemporaneous with the sale or transfer of Landlord’s interest in the Premises and/or the Building. The Deposit shall not be mortgaged, assigned or encumbered by Tenant. In the event of a permitted assignment or subletting under this Lease by Tenant, the Deposit shall be held by Landlord as a deposit made by the permitted assignee or subtenant and Landlord shall have no further liability with respect to the return of said Deposit to the original Tenant. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Deposit separate from its general accounts.
4
C. Lockbox. At all times that Landlord shall direct Tenant to pay Rent to a “lockbox” or other depository whereby checks issued in payment of Rent are initially cashed or deposited by a person or entity other than Landlord (albeit on Landlord’s authority), then, for any and all purposes under this Lease: (i) Landlord shall not be deemed to have accepted such payment until ten (10) days after the date on which Landlord shall have actually received such funds, and (ii) Landlord shall be deemed to have accepted such payment if (and only if) within said ten (10) day period, Landlord shall not have refunded (or attempted to refund) any payment not made in strict compliance with this Lease to Tenant. Nothing contained in the immediately preceding sentence shall be construed to place Tenant in default of Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent if and for so long as Tenant shall timely pay the entire Rent required pursuant to this Lease in the manner designated by Landlord.
4. | REIMBURSEMENT FOR OPERATING EXPENSES OF LANDLORD. |
A. Operating Expenses. In addition to the Base Rent payable hereunder. Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord, as Additional Rent hereunder, for Tenant’s Share of all operating expenses (the “Operating Expenses”) as described in Exhibit “G” attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof, of maintaining and operating (directly or indirectly) the Mixed Use Buildings in the Project over and above the Base Year Operating Expenses.
B. Tenant’s Share. Tenant’s Share of the Operating Expenses (herein called “Tenant’s Operating Expenses”) shall be in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the total Operating Expenses allocated to the Mixed Use Buildings within the Project during each calendar year of the Lease Term in excess of the Base Year Operating Expenses allocated to the Mixed Use Buildings within the Project by Tenant’s Share. Tenant’s Operating Expenses shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent under this Lease. For each calendar year or part thereof occurring during the Lease Term subsequent to the Base Year, Landlord shall have the right to make a good faith estimate of Tenant’s Operating Expenses for the upcoming calendar year and upon fifteen (15) days’ notice to Tenant to require the payment by Tenant of one-twelfth (l/12lh) of such amount on the first (1st) day of each month during the calendar year in question. By May 1 of each calendar year following the year in which the Lease Term commences, or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of Operating Expenses for the prior calendar year, including therein the calculation of any additional amount owed by Tenant to Landlord, which amount shall be promptly paid by Tenant to Landlord as Additional Rent. Any amounts owed by Landlord to Tenant shall be refunded or applied against Rent due under this Lease (as determined by Landlord). If this Lease shall terminate on a day other than the last day of a calendar year, the Additional Rent payable by Tenant pursuant to this Section 4 shall be prorated on the basis which the number of days from the commencement of such calendar year to and including such termination date bears to three hundred sixty-five (365). If during the Term any change occurs in either the Square Feet in the Premises or of the Square Feet of the Mixed Use Buildings, Tenant’s Share shall be adjusted, effective as of the date of any such change. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of such change and the reason therefor. Any changes made pursuant to this Section 4.B. shall not alter the computation of Operating Expenses as provided in this Section 4, but, on and after the date of any such change, Tenant’s Operating Expenses pursuant to this Section 4.B. shall be computed upon Tenant’s Share thereof, as adjusted. If such estimated payments of Tenant’s Share are so adjusted during a year, a reconciliation payment for Tenant’s Operating Expenses pursuant to this Section 4 for the calendar year in which such change occurs shall be computed pursuant to the method set forth in Section 4, such computation to take into account the daily weighted average of Tenant’s Operating Expenses during such year.
5
C. Minimum Occupancy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Mixed Use Buildings do not have an average occupancy of ninety-five percent (95%) during any calendar year, including the Base Year, appropriate adjustments shall be made to determine Operating Expenses as though the Mixed Use Buildings had been ninety-five percent (95%) occupied, but in no event shall Tenant ever be required to pay more than Tenant’s Share of the determined Operating Expenses. The average occupancy shall be determined by adding together the total leased space on the last day of each month during the calendar year in question and dividing by twelve (12).
5. ADDITIONAL TAXES PAYABLE BY TENANT. In addition to the Base Rent and Additional Rent and all other charges to be paid by Tenant hereunder. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon demand as Additional Rent hereunder, any and all taxes payable by Landlord (other than net income taxes) whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of the parties hereto: (i) upon, measured by or reasonably attributable to the cost or value of Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures, improvements (whether constructed by Landlord or Tenant) and other personal property located in the Premises; (ii) subject to those certain exclusions from Taxes set forth in Exhibit “G”. upon, measured by or reasonably attributable to the Rent payable hereunder, or any component thereof which may be imposed from and after the Effective Date, including, without limitation, any gross income tax or excise tax levied by the City of Xxxxx Springs, Xxxxxx County, the State of Georgia, the Federal Government or any other federal, state, county, municipal or other governmental body with respect to the receipt of such Rent; and (iii) upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.

Tenant shall not commit or permit any waste on the Premises or permit the Premises to be used in any way which would, in the opinion of Landlord, be extra hazardous on account of fire or which would in any way increase or render void the insurance on the Building and/or the Project. Tenant shall not deface or injure, or permit the defacement of or injury to, the Premises, Building or Project. Tenant shall not to block or cover any of the heating, ventilation or air-conditioning ducts in the Premises.

(vi) If Landlord, in its sole discretion, believes that the Premises have become contaminated with Hazardous Materials that must be removed under any applicable Environmental Laws Landlord, in addition to its other rights under this Lease, may enter upon the Premises and obtain samples from the Premises for the purposes of analyzing the same to determine whether and to what extent the Premises have become contaminated. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the costs of any inspection, sampling and analysis that discloses contamination for which Tenant is liable under the terms of this Lease. Tenant may not perform any sampling, testing, or drilling to locate any Hazardous Materials on the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent.
11
(vii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from any and all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, costs, expenses, damages and obligations of any nature arising from, or as a result of the presence or use of any Hazardous Materials anywhere in the Project, Building or the Premises, whether such presence or use was prior to, during, or after Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, if such materials were used or placed there by Landlord.
(viii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with Tenant’s Permitted Use from the Premises, Tenant may handle, store, use and/or dispose of products containing and/or being deemed as Hazardous Materials in the Premises (“Permitted Materials”), provided such Permitted Materials are properly stored in appropriate containers and the handing, storage, use and/or disposal of such Permitted Materials complies with all applicable Environmental Laws.
The obligations and liabilities of both parties under this Section 13.E. shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
14 . INSURANCE.
A. Tenant’s Insurance. Tenant shall procure at its expense and maintain throughout the Lease Term a policy or policies of special form/all risk insurance insuring the full replacement cost of its furniture, fixtures, equipment, supplies, and other property owned, leased, held or possessed by it and contained in the Premises, together with the excess value of the improvements to the Premises over the Improvement Allowance (with a replacement cost endorsement sufficient to prevent Tenant from becoming a co-insurer), and worker’s compensation insurance as required by applicable law. Tenant shall also procure at its expense and maintain throughout the Lease Term a policy or policies of commercial general liability insurance, insuring Tenant, Landlord and any other person designated by Landlord, against any and all liability for injury to or death of a person or persons and for damage to property- occasioned by or arising out of any construction work being done on the Premises, or arising out of the condition, use, or occupancy of the Premises, or in any way occasioned by or arising out of the activities of Tenant or any of Tenant’s Agents in the Premises, or other portions of the Building or the Project, the limits of such policy or policies to be in combined single limits for both damage to property and personal injury and in amounts not less than Three Million and 00/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00) for each occurrence. Such insurance shall, in addition, extend to any liability of Tenant arising out of the indemnities provided for in this Lease. Tenant shall also carry such other types of insurance in form and amount which Landlord shall reasonably deem to be prudent for Tenant to carry, should the circumstances or conditions so merit Tenant carrying such type of insurance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, provided that Landlord requires similarly situated tenants in the Project to raise their insurance coverage limits, then Landlord shall have the right (but not more than once every three years) to periodically raise Tenant’s required coverage limits hereunder. All insurance policies procured and maintained by Tenant pursuant to this Section 14.A. shall name Landlord and any additional parties designated by Landlord as additional insureds, shall be carried with companies licensed to do business in the State of Georgia having a rating from Best’s Insurance Reports of not less than A IX, and shall be non-cancelable and not subject to material change except after thirty (30) days’ written notice to Landlord. Such policies or duly executed certificates of insurance with respect thereto, accompanied by proof of payment of the premium therefor, shall be delivered to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date, and renewals of such policies shall be delivered to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of each respective policy term.
12
B. Landlord’s Insurance. Landlord shall procure and maintain at its expense (but with the expense to be included in Operating Expenses) throughout the Lease Term a policy or policies of special form/all risk (including rent loss coverage) real and personal property insurance covering the Project (including the leasehold improvements in the Premises up to the amount of the Improvement Allowance, but excluding Tenant’s personal property and equipment), in an amount equal to the full insurable replacement cost thereof as such may increase from time to time (but such insurance may provide for a commercially reasonable deductible), and in an amount sufficient to comply with any co insurance requirements in such policy, and a policy of workers’ compensation insurance, if any, as required by applicable law. In addition, Landlord shall procure and maintain at its expense (but with the expense to be included in Operating Expenses) and shall thereafter maintain throughout the Lease Term, a commercial general liability insurance policy covering the Project with combined single limits for both damage to property and personal injury of not less than Three Million and 00/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00) per occurrence, subject to annual aggregate limits of not less than Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00). Landlord may also carry such other types of insurance in form and amounts which Landlord shall reasonably determine to be appropriate from time to time, and the cost thereof shall be included in Operating Expenses. All such policies procured and maintained by Landlord pursuant to this Section 14.B. shall be carried with companies licensed to do business in the State of Georgia. Any insurance required to be carried by Landlord hereunder may be carried under blanket policies covering other properties of Landlord and/or its partners and/or their respective related or affiliated corporations so long as such blanket policies provide insurance at all times for the Project as required by this Lease.
C. Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant shall each have included in all policies of fire, extended coverage, business interruption and loss of rents insurance respectively obtained by them covering the Premises, the Building and contents therein, a waiver by the insurer of all right of subrogation against the other in connection with any loss or damage thereby insured against. Any additional premium for such waiver shall be paid by the primary insured. To the full extent permitted by law, Landlord and Tenant each waives all right of recovery against the other for, and agrees to release the other from liability for, loss or damage to the extent such loss or damage is covered by valid and collectible insurance in effect at the time of such loss or damage or would be covered by the insurance required to be maintained under this Lease by the party seeking recovery.
15. ALTERATIONS. Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements (collectively, “Alterations”) in or to the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed interior, non-structural Alteration(s) to the Premises which are not visible from the exterior of the Premises and do not affect the electrical, plumbing, sewer and/or life safety systems of the Building. Tenant shall only utilize contractors approved by Landlord. Tenant shall, before making any Alterations, at its expense, obtain all permits, approvals and certificates required by any governmental or quasi-governmental bodies and (upon completion) certificates of final approval thereof and shall deliver promptly duplicates of all such permits, approvals and certificates to Landlord, and Tenant agrees to carry, and to cause Tenant’s contractors and sub-contractors to carry such xxxxxxx’x compensation, general liability, personal and property damage insurance as Landlord may reasonably require. Upon completion of any Alteration, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord one set of “as-built” plans and specifications therefor. All fixtures and paneling, partitions, railing and like Alterations, installed in the Premises, either by Tenant or by Landlord on Tenant’s behalf, shall become the property of Landlord and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, unless Landlord, by notice to Tenant given at the time of the consent to such Alteration, elects to have them removed by Tenant, in which event, the same shall be removed from the Premises by Tenant. For so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease, nothing in this Section shall be construed to give Landlord title to or to prevent Tenant’s removal of trade fixtures, moveable office furniture and equipment, but upon removal of any such equipment and fixtures from the Premises or upon removal of other installations as may be required by Landlord, Tenant shall immediately and at its expense, repair and restore the Premises to the condition existing prior to installation (subject to ordinary wear and tear) and repair any damage to the Premises or the Building or the Project due to such removal. All property that was permitted or required to be removed by Tenant at the end of the Term but which remains in the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease shall conclusively be deemed abandoned and may, at the election of Landlord, either be retained as Landlord’s property or may be removed from the Premises by Landlord at Tenant’s expense.

Tenant shall not, without at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to Landlord and the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (including without limitation by transfer of a majority interest of stock, partnership interests or other ownership interests, merger, or dissolution, which transfer of majority interest of stock, partnership interests or other ownership interests, merger or dissolution shall be deemed an assignment), mortgage, pledge, encumber, sell, transfer or assign this Lease, in whole or in part, or sublease all or any part of the Premises, or permit the use or occupancy of all or any part of the Premises by any other party (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as an “Assignment”).

In no event shall Tenant be entitled to any profit for such Assignment; Landlord shall have the sole and absolute right to any and all amounts paid or payable in excess of the Rent payable by Tenant, and Landlord may, at its election, receive same directly from the assignee or require Tenant to collect and remit same to Landlord as Additional Rent hereunder. In the event of any such Assignment, Tenant shall remain fully liable for the performance of all the terms and conditions of this Lease. No assignee or subtenant of the Premises or any portion thereof may assign or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof.

14
C. Invalid Assignment. The occupancy by any party other than Tenant or the acceptance by Landlord of the payment of Rent following any Assignment or other transfer prohibited by this Section 16 shall not be deemed to be a consent by Landlord to any such Assignment or other transfer nor shall the same be deemed to be a waiver of any right or remedy of Landlord hereunder nor shall the same be deemed a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of the covenants on the part of Tenant contained in this Lease.
D. Affiliate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 16 but in any event subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and provided Tenant is not in default, Tenant shall be entitled to assign this Lease to an Affiliate (as defined below) without Landlord’s consent; provided, however, that Tenant notifies Landlord in writing of said assignment within fifteen (15) days prior the date of such assignment, and provided that such Affiliate has a tangible net worth no less than the greater of the tangible net worth of Tenant and any guarantor (if applicable) upon the Effective Date or the tangible net worth of Tenant and any guarantor (if applicable) immediately prior to such assignment. An “Affiliate” shall mean a corporation or entity in control of, controlled by, or under common control with Tenant, or any successor to Tenant in a merger or consolidation transaction. As used herein, control shall require the ownership of fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the ownership interests in the entity in question. Within thirty (30) days following the assignment of this Lease to an Affiliate, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a fully executed assignment agreement. Under no circumstances shall Tenant be released from its obligations under this Lease as a result of an assignment of this Lease to an Affiliate.
17. SIGNS. Tenant shall obtain the prior written approval of Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed provided such signage complies with Landlord’s standard signage criteria) prior to placing and maintaining, or causing or permitting to be placed and maintained, any sign, advertising matter or other thing of any kind, on, or which is visible from, the exterior of the Premises. Landlord has the right to remove any signs not approved by it and to recover from Tenant the cost of such removal.

In addition to and not in limitation of the foregoing, in the event Tenant shall default in the payment of Rent more than twice in any calendar year, Landlord shall have the right to require that all subsequent payments of Rent by Tenant be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Landlord, or by unendorsed certified or official bank check made payable to Landlord;
15
(ii) The Premises are deserted, vacated, or not used as regularly or consistently as would normally be expected for similar premises put to the same or similar purposes as set forth herein, even though the Tenant continues to pay the stipulated Rent, and such condition is not corrected within ten (10) days of Tenant’s receipt of written notice thereof from Landlord;
(iii) Tenant violates the provisions of Section 16 by attempting to make an unpermitted assignment or sublease;

B. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord shall have the option to do and perform any one or more of the following, in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other right or remedy available to Landlord at law or in equity or elsewhere under this Lease:
(i) Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord, but if Tenant shall fail to do so, Landlord may, without further notice and without prejudice to any other remedy Landlord may have for possession or arrearages in Rent, enter upon the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and Tenant’s effects, by force if necessary, without being subject to prosecution or liable for any claim for damages therefor; Tenant hereby agreeing to pay to Landlord on demand the amount of all loss and damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination, whether through inability to relet the Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise;
(ii) Terminate Tenant’s right of possession, without terminating this Lease, and enter upon and take possession of the Premises as Tenant’s agent and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying said Premises or any part thereof, and its and their effects, by entry, dispossessory suit or otherwise, without thereby releasing Tenant from any liability hereunder, without terminating this Lease, and without being liable for prosecution or any claim of damages therefor and, if Landlord so elects, make such alterations, redecorations and repairs as, in Landlord’s judgment, may be necessary or desired to relet the Premises, and Landlord may, but shall be under no obligation to do so, relet the Premises or any portion thereof in Landlord’s or Tenant’s name, but for the account of Tenant, for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the Lease Term) and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms as Landlord may deem advisable, with or without advertisement, and by private negotiations, and receive the rent therefor, Tenant hereby agreeing to pay to Landlord the deficiency, if any, between all Rent reserved hereunder and the total rental applicable to the Lease Term hereof obtained by Landlord upon re letting, and Tenant shall be liable for Landlord’s damages and expenses in redecorating and restoring the Premises and all costs incident to such re letting, including broker’s commissions and lease assumptions. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to any rentals received by Landlord in excess of the amounts due by Tenant hereunder. Any such demand, reentry and taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord shall not of itself constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of this Lease or of the Premises by Tenant and shall not of itself constitute a termination of this Lease by Landlord. Landlord’s failure to relet the Premises or to make such alterations, redecorations and repairs as set forth in this Section 18.B. shall not release or affect Tenant’s liability for Rent or for damages; or
17
(iii) As agent of Tenant, do whatever Tenant is obligated to do by the provisions of this Lease and enter the Premises, by force if necessary, without being subject to prosecution or liable for any claims for damages therefor, in order to accomplish this purpose. Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord immediately upon demand for any expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with this Lease on behalf of Tenant and Tenant further agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for any damages resulting to Tenant from such action, whether caused by negligence of Landlord or otherwise; and/or
(iv) If Landlord exercises any of the remedies set forth in this Lease or under Georgia law, in addition to all other costs and expenses Landlord shall be entitled to recover under this Lease, Landlord shall also be entitled to recover the amount of any rental abatement or other rental concession provided by Landlord to Tenant In addition to all other sums that are owed by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease, upon an uncured event of default, Tenant shall become liable for any costs incurred by Landlord under this Lease for the completion of any improvements to the Premises, and any real estate commissions paid by Landlord under this Lease (collectively, “Landlord’s Costs”), to the extent set forth in this Section 18.B.(iv). The entire amount of Landlord’s Costs shall be amortized evenly over the Lease Term, and so long as Tenant does not default in its obligations under this Lease, and fail to cure such default within the applicable period of cure, if any, provided under this Lease, then Tenant shall have no liability to Landlord for the repayment of any portion of Landlord’s Costs. However, in the event that Tenant shall default in its obligations under this Lease, and Tenant shall fail to cure such default within the applicable period of cure, if any, provided under this Lease, then in addition to all of Landlord’s other remedies available under this Lease, Tenant shall also be liable to Landlord for the portion of Landlord’s Costs that remains amortized but unpaid between the date of such default and the expiration of the Term of this Lease.
If this Lease is terminated by Landlord as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may declare to be due and payable immediately, the present value (calculated with a discount factor of eight percent [8%] per annum) of the difference between (i) the entire amount of Rent and other charges and assessments which in Landlord’s reasonable determination would become due and payable during the remainder of the Lease Term determined as though this Lease had not been terminated, and (ii) the then fair market rental value of the Premises and other charges and assessments for the remainder of the Lease Term. Upon the acceleration of such amounts, Tenant agrees to pay the same at once, together with all Rent and other charges and assessments theretofore due, at Landlord’s address as provided herein, it being agreed that such payment shall not constitute a penalty or forfeiture but shall constitute liquidated damages for Tenant’s failure to comply with the terms and provisions of this Lease (Landlord and Tenant agreeing that Landlord’s actual damages in such event are impossible to ascertain and that the amount set forth above is a reasonable estimate thereof).
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs incurred by Landlord (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in (i) obtaining possession of the Premises, (ii) removing and storing Tenant’s or any other occupant’s property located in the Premises, (iii) repairing, restoring, renovating, altering, remodeling, or otherwise putting the Premises into condition reasonably acceptable to a new tenant, (iv) if Tenant is dispossessed of, or vacates or abandons, the Premises and this Lease is not terminated, reletting all or any part of the Premises (including, but not limited to, brokerage commissions, cost of tenant finish work, advertising and promotional expenses, and other costs incidental to such reletting), (v) performing Tenant’s obligations which Tenant failed to perform, and (vi) enforcing its rights, remedies, and recourses arising out of the default.
18
Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any other remedy herein provided or any other remedy provided by law or at equity, nor shall pursuit of any remedy herein provided constitute an election of remedies thereby excluding the later election of an alternate remedy, or a forfeiture or waiver of any Rent or other charges and assessments payable by Tenant and due to Landlord hereunder or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of violation of any of the terms, covenants, warranties and provisions herein contained. No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord or any other action taken by or on behalf of Landlord shall be construed to be an acceptance of a surrender of this Lease or an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless written notice of such intention is given to Tenant. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an Event of Default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default. In determining the amount of loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of termination of this Lease or the deficiency arising by reason of any reletting of the Premises by Landlord as above provided, allowance shall be made for the expense of repossession.
C. Attorneys’ Fees. If any rent or other sum due and owing under this Lease is collected by or through an attorney at law, then, in addition to such sums, Tenant shall also pay Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable costs actually incurred in such collection.
D. Overdue Charges and Interest. In the event that Landlord elects to accept a payment of Rent which is not received by Landlord on or before its due date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an overdue charge of five percent (5%) of such payment, or One Hundred and 00/100 Dollars (S100.00), whichever is greater, in order to compensate Landlord for its administrative expenses in processing overdue payments; however, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require Landlord to accept any payment of Rent received by Landlord after the due date. In addition. Tenant shall pay to Landlord a processing and handling fee of Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($50.00) for any check of Tenant’s which is returned to Landlord because of insufficient funds, as liquidated damages to compensate Landlord for its additional administrative costs and expenses in handling such items, it being agreed that the exact amount thereof would be difficult or impossible to ascertain. Any payment of Rent not made when due shall also bear interest at eighteen percent (18%) per annum (the “Default Rate”) from the date due until paid in full.
19. HOLDING OVER. Tenant shall have no right to hold over beyond the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease without the express written consent of Landlord. Should Tenant or any of its successors in interest continue to hold over the Premises after the termination of this Lease without the written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall be a tenant at sufferance. In the event of any unauthorized holding over. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against all damages sustained by Landlord by reason of such holdover and all claims for damages by any other tenant to whom Landlord shall have leased all or any portion of the leased Premises effective upon the termination of this Lease, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord as liquidated damages, solely for such holding over, monthly rental equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) the monthly rental (including Base Rent and all other rental amounts) in effect during the last full month of the Lease Term.
20. DESTRUCTION OF OR DAMAGE TO PREMISES.
A. Building Casualty. If the Building or any portion thereof is damaged or destroyed by any casualty to the extent that, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, (i) repair of such damage or destruction would not be economically feasible, or (ii) the damage or destruction to the Building cannot be repaired within three hundred sixty (360) days after the date of such damage or destruction, or (iii) if the proceeds from insurance remaining after any required payment to any mortgagee or lessor of Landlord are insufficient to repair such damage or destruction, Landlord shall have the right, at Landlord’s option, to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant notice of such termination, within sixty (60) days after the date of such damage or destruction.
19
B. Premises Casualty. If the Premises or any portion thereof is damaged or destroyed by any casualty, and if, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, the Premises cannot be restored within two hundred ten (210) days after the date of such damage or destruction, or if the proceeds from Landlord’s insurance remaining after any required payment to any mortgagee or lessor of Landlord are insufficient to repair such damage or destruction, then either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right, at the option ofeither party, to terminate this Lease by giving the other written notice, within sixty (60) days after such damage or destruction.
C. Restoration. In the event of partial destruction or damage to the Building or the Premises which is not subject to Sections 20.A. or 20.B. or which is subject to Sections 20.A. or 20.B. but the applicable party (or parties) does not elect to terminate this Lease, but which renders the Premises partially but not wholly untenantable, this Lease shall not terminate and Rent shall be abated in proportion to the area of the Premises which, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, cannot be used or occupied by Tenant as a result of such casualty. Landlord shall in such event, within a reasonable time after the date of such destruction or damage, subject to Force Majeure or to Tenant Delay and to the extent and availability of insurance proceeds, restore the Premises to as near the same condition as existed prior to such partial damage or destruction, provided that Tenant pays to Landlord Tenant’s insurance proceeds as required herein. In no event shall Rent xxxxx nor shall Tenant have the right to terminate this Lease in accordance with this Section 20 if damage to or destruction of the Premises is the result of the negligence or willful act of Tenant, or Tenant’s agents, employees, representatives, contractors, successors, assigns, licensees or invitees. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for inconvenience, loss of business, or annoyance arising from any repair of any portion of the Premises or the Building. If Landlord is required by this Lease or by any mortgagee or lessor of Landlord to repair or if Landlord undertakes to repair, Tenant shall pay to Landlord that amount of Tenant’s insurance proceeds (or the amount which would have been received by Tenant if Tenant was carrying the insurance required by this Lease) which insures such damage as a contribution towards such repair, and Landlord shall use mreasonable efforts to have such repairs made promptly and in a manner which will not unnecessarily interfere with Tenant’s occupancy.
D. End of Term Casualty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Building or the Premises or any material portion thereof is destroyed or materially damaged by fire or other casualty at any time during the last twelve (12) months of the Term, then either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right, at the option of either party, to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other within sixty (60) days after the date of such destruction; provided, however, that in no event shall Tenant have the right to terminate this Lease if damage to or destruction of the Building or the Premises is the result of negligence or willful act of Tenant, or Tenant’s agents, employees, representatives, contractors, successors or assigns, licensees or invitees.
E. Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Lease pursuant to Sections 20.A., 20.B. or 20.D., then all Rent shall be apportioned and paid to the date on which possession is relinquished or the date of such damage, whichever last occurs, and Tenant shall immediately vacate the Premises according to such notice of termination; provided, however, that those provisions of this Lease which are designated to cover matters of termination and the period thereafter shall survive the termination hereof.
20
21 . EMINENT DOMAIN. If all or any part of the Premises or the Building shall be taken as a result of the exercise of the power of eminent domain or agreement in lieu thereof, this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date of taking, and, in the case of a partial taking of the Premises, either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease as to the balance of the Premises by giving written notice to the other within thirty (30) days after such date; provided, however, that a condition to the exercise by Tenant of such right to terminate shall be that the portion of the Premises taken shall be of such extent and nature as to substantially impair Tenant’s use of the balance of the Premises. If this Lease is terminated under the provisions of this Section 21, Rent shall be apportioned and adjusted as of the date of termination. In the event of any taking, Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or against the condemning authority for the value of any leasehold estate or for the value of the unexpired Lease Term (and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord any right or interest to any award applicable thereto), provided that the foregoing shall not preclude any claim that Tenant may have against the condemning authority for the unamortized cost of leasehold improvements, to the extent the same were installed at Tenant’s expense (and not with the proceeds of the Improvement Allowance), or for loss of business or moving expenses incurred in relocating from the Premises Tenant’s trade fixtures and/or other personal property. In the event of a partial taking of the Premises which does not result in a termination of this Lease, the monthly Rent thereafter to be paid shall be equitably reduced based upon balance of the square feet of the Premises.

23. NO WAIVER OF RIGHTS. No failure to or delay in exercise of any right or power given herein or to insist upon strict compliance of any obligation imposed herein and no custom or practice of either party hereto at variance with any term hereof shall constitute a waiver or a modification of the terms hereof by either party or any right to demand strict compliance with the terms hereof. No receipt of money by Landlord from Tenant after notice of default, or after the termination of this Lease or the commencement of any suit or final judgment of possession of the Premises, shall reinstate, continue or extend the Term of this Lease or affect any notice, demand or suit.

This provision shall be automatic and no further action or documentation shall be required. Tenant shall, however, within ten (10) days of request execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord, to Landlord’s designee and/or the holder of any such Security Deed, such certificate or certificates that may be requested by Landlord or such holder to evidence the subordination of this Lease to such Security Deed.

30. GEORGIA LAW. The laws of the State of Georgia shall govern the interpretation, validity, performance and enforcement of this Lease.

Time is of the essence of this Lease; provided, however, that failure of Landlord to provide Tenant with any notification regarding reimbursements for Operating Expenses or any other charges or Additional Rent provided for hereunder, within the time periods prescribed in this Lease shall not relieve Tenant of its obligation to make such payments or contributions.

If Landlord is in default with respect to its obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall look solely to the equity of Landlord in and to the Building (including, without limitation, rents and sales proceeds) for satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies, if any. It is expressly understood and agreed that Landlord’s liability under the terms of this Lease shall in no event exceed the amount of its interest in and to said Building (including, without limitation, rents and sales proceeds).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any punitive, special or consequential damages Tenant may suffer or incur, including, without limitation, damage for loss of business or loss of profits.
22
B. Consent Standard. If Tenant claims or asserts that Landlord has violated or failed to perform a covenant of Landlord not to unreasonably withhold or delay Landlord’s consent or approval, Tenant’s sole remedy shall be an action for specific performance, declaratory judgment or injunction and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to any money damages for a breach of such covenant and in no event shall Tenant claim or assert any claim for any money damages in any action or by way of set off, defense or counterclaim and Tenant hereby specifically waives the right to any money damages or other remedies.
33. PARKING AND COMMON AREAS.
A. Parking. For so long as this Lease is in full force and effect and Tenant is not in default hereunder. Landlord shall make available in the parking areas of the Project to Tenant a number of parking spaces (on an unassigned, nonexclusive basis) determined by multiplying 3.0 by the number of Square Feet in the Premises, dividing said product by 1,000, and then rounding such resulting number to the nearest whole number of spaces, at rates to be determined from time to time by Landlord. Tenant may not use additional parking spaces without the prior written consent of Landlord. Tenant shall not interfere, nor permit its agents, employees, contractors, invitees or licensees to interfere with the rights of Landlord and others entitled to use the parking areas. All parking facilities furnished by Landlord shall be subject to the reasonable control and management of Landlord, who may, from time to time, (i) establish, modify and enforce reasonable rules and regulations with respect thereto, (ii) change or reconfigure the parking facilities, (iii) construct or repair any portion thereof, and/or (iv) assign parking spaces in designated areas.

If at any time, in Landlord’s opinion, it becomes necessary for purposes of expanding, repairing, restoring, constructing or reconstructing all or any portion of the Project, Landlord may, temporarily close off portions of the Common Areas, erect private boundary marks or take such other action as Landlord deems necessary or desirable for such purposes. Landlord reserves the right from time to time, to dedicate portions of the parking areas, driveways, access roads, or other areas which may now or hereafter be located on the Land to the public.

Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, no liability shall attach to Landlord for any failure to enforce this provision (or similar provisions in other leases).
53. CERTIFICATION. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that, to the best of Tenant’s knowledge (i) Tenant is not acting, directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of any person, group, entity, or nation, named by any Executive Order or the United States Treasury Department as a “terrorist”, “Specially Designated National and Blocked Person”, or other banned or blocked person, group, or nation (collectively, “Banned Persons”) pursuant to any anti-terrorism law; (ii) Tenant is not engaged in this Lease transaction, or instigating or facilitating this Lease, directly or indirectly on behalf of any Banned Person; (iii) Tenant currently does not appear, and throughout the Lease Term, neither Tenant, nor any officer, director, shareholder, partner, member or other owner of Tenant shall appear, on any list of Banned Persons; (iv) no anti-terrorism law prohibits Landlord from doing business with Tenant; (v) Tenant, its officers, directors, or principal shareholders, partner, member, or other owner of Tenant, shall not, during the Lease Term, violate any anti-terrorism laws; and (vi) Tenant, its officers, directors, principal shareholders, partners or members shall not, during the Lease Term, knowingly do business with any party, individual, or entity that has violated or will violate any anti-terrorism laws.

Tenant hereby agrees to defend, indemnity, protect, and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, risks, liabilities, fines, penalties, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and costs arising from or related to a breach of the foregoing representations and warranties. The foregoing indemnity-obligations of Tenant shall survive the termination or expiration of this Lease.

In the event any applicable governmental authority, including, without limitation, Xxxxxx County, Georgia and/or the City of Xxxxx Springs, denies Tenant’s application for the installation of Tenant’s Sign for any reason, then (1) in no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any claims, causes of action or damages against Landlord arising from the same; and (2) Tenant hereby waives and releases Landlord from any and all claims, causes of action and damages against Landlord arising from the same.

13. Subordination and Attornment. This License and all rights of Licensee hereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate to any mortgage, deed to secure debt, deed of trust or other instrument in the nature thereof (the “Security Deed”) which may now or hereafter affect Owner’s fee title to the License Area and/or Building and/or Project. This provision shall be automatic and no further action or documentation shall be required. Licensee shall, however, within ten (10) days of request execute, acknowledge and deliver to Owner, to Owner’s designee and/or the holder of any such Security Deed, such certificate or certificates that may be requested by Owner or such holder to evidence the subordination of this License to such Security Deed.

No failure of Owner to exercise any power given Owner hereunder, or to insist upon strict compliance by Licensee with any obligation of Licensee hereunder, and no custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms hereof, shall constitute a waiver of Owner’s right to demand exact compliance with the terms hereof.

The rights granted by Owner to Licensee hereunder are for a license for the purpose set forth herein only and not for an easement and not for a lease, and no action by Licensee in reliance upon the granting of this License or by Owner shall convert the license granted by this License, by operation of law or otherwise, into an easement, a lease, or an irrevocable license.

In the event of the entry of any such injunction the sole remedy of said Member shall be the dissolution of such injunction, if warranted upon hearing duly had (all claims for damages by reason of the wrongful issuance of any such injunction being hereby expressly waived by said Member). Obtainment of such an injunction by the Company shall not be considered an election of remedies or a waiver of any right by the Company to assert any other remedies the Company has at law or in equity. No waiver of any breach or violation hereof shall be implied from the forbearance or failure by the Company to take action hereon. Each Member agrees that if any provisions hereof shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such deletion is to apply only with respect to the operation of such provision in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made; provided, further, to the extent any provision hereof is deemed unenforceable by virtue of its scope in terms of area or length of time, but may be made enforceable by limitations thereon, each Member agrees that the same shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in such jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. |
6.8 | Independent Covenants - Indemnification. The restrictive covenants of each Member contained in this ARTICLE 6 shall be construed as an agreement which is independent of any other provision of this Agreement or any other understanding or agreement between the parties and the existence of any claim or cause of action of a Member against the Company, of whatever nature, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of the covenants contained herein. Each Member agrees to indemnify and hold the Company and each other Member, and their successors and permitted assigns, respectively, harmless of and from any and all loss, cost, damages and expenses (including attorney’s fees and court costs) which the Company or such other persons or entities shall suffer, sustain or incur as a result of, in connection with or arising from said Member’s breach of any of the provisions hereof, or the efforts of the Company to enforce the restrictive covenants contained herein. |
