LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS LEASE AGREEMENT, is made and entered into as of March 31, 2000 by and
--
between 3 Plus Limited Partnership hereinafter referred to as "Landlord", and
XxxxXxxxxx.xxx, Inc. hereinafter referred to as "Tenant";
WITNESSETH:
1. PREMISES AND TERM. In consideration of the obligation of Tenant to pay rent
as herein provided, and in consideration of the other terms, provisions and
covenants hereof, Landlord hereby demises and leases to Tenant, and Tenant
hereby accepts and leases from Landlord certain premises consisting of a
building containing approximately 102,297 square feet at 0000 Xxxx Xxx Xxxxxxx,
Xxxxxx of Xxxx, State of Georgia, (the "Building") together with all site
improvements upon the real property legally described on Exhibit "A" and
depicted on the site plan attached hereto as Exhibit "A-1" (collectively the
"Premises").
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the same for a term commencing on the "Commencement
Date", as hereinafter defined, and ending One Hundred Twenty Two (122) months
thereafter; provided however, that in the event the Commencement Date is a date
other than the first day of a calendar month, said term shall extend for said
number of months in addition to the remainder of the calendar month following
the Commencement Date. (See also Additional Provisions, Sections 2, 3, and 4)
The Commencement Date shall be the date upon which the Landlord's Work
shall have been substantially completed provided however, that if Landlord shall
be delayed in such Substantial Completion as a result of: (i) Tenant's failure
to agree to plans, specifications, and cost estimates, within a reasonable
period of time; (ii) Tenant's request for materials, finishes or installations
not available in same time period or which require more time to complete than
Landlord's standard; (iii) Tenant's changes in plans; or (iv) the performance or
completion of work by a party employed by Tenant, the Commencement Date and the
payment of rent hereunder shall be accelerated by the number of days of such
delay, and provided further that if Landlord can not substantially complete the
Premises as a result of any of events (i) through (iv) above, Landlord may at
its election complete so much of Landlord's Work as may be practical under the
circumstances and, by written notice to Tenant, establish the Commencement Date
as the date of such partial completion, subject to any applicable accelerations
due to delays resulting from events (i) through (iv) above. Notwithstanding the
preceding Landlord's election, Landlord agrees to pursue the completion of
Landlord's Work in an expeditious manner. Taking of possession by Tenant shall
be deemed conclusively to establish that said buildings and other improvements
have been completed in accordance with the plans and specifications and that the
Premises are in good and satisfactory condition (latent defects, Warranty Work
and punch list items excepted), as of when possession was so taken. Tenant
acknowledges that no representations as to the repair of the Premises have been
made by Landlord, unless such are expressly set forth in this lease. After such
Commencement Date Tenant shall, upon demand, execute and deliver to Landlord a
letter of acceptance of delivery of the Premises. In the event of any dispute as
to Substantial Completion of work performed or required to be performed by
Landlord, the certificate of Landlord's architect impartially given shall be
conclusive. (See Also Additional Provisions, Section 15 and 19). Landlord
covenants to repair or replace, at Landlord's expense and as "Warranty Work,"
any defective item of Landlord's Work of which Tenant notifies Landlord within
one year after the Commencement Date and that requires repair or replacement
(other than normal wear and tear) as a result of (i) any failure to construct
the Building in material compliance with Exhibit "B-1"; (ii) any failure to
construct the leasehold improvements in material compliance with the Basic
Outline Specifications in Exhibit "B-1" or improvements made per Exhibit "B-2";
or (iii) any defective materials or workmanship. Within 10 days after the
expiration of the above-described one-year warranty period, Landlord will assign
to Tenant any manufacturers' or subcontractors' warranties or guaranties that
are still then in effect with respect to the Building or the leasehold
improvements, except for any such warranties or guaranties relating to any
portions of the Premises which Landlord is required under this Lease to maintain
and repair at Landlord's expense.
2. BASE RENT AND SECURITY DEPOSIT.
A. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord rent for the Premises, in advance
without demand, deduction or set off (except as expressly stated in Paragraph 24
of this Lease Agreement and Additional Provision, Section 21), from sixty days
after the Commencement Date and for the entire remaining term hereof, at the
rate of Forty Thousand Six Hundred Ninety-Two Dollars and 00/100 ($40,692.00)
per month. One such monthly installment shall be due and payable on the date
hereof and a like monthly installment shall be due and payable on or before the
first day of each calendar month succeeding the Commencement Date recited above
during the hereby demised term, except that the rental payment for any
fractional calendar month at the commencement or end of the lease period shall
be prorated.
On each and every January 1/st/ following the Commencement Date during the
term of the lease or extension thereof Tenant agrees to pay an additional
monthly rental for each month during that year an amount equal to Two and One-
Half percent (2.5%) of the previous years December monthly rental.
Page 1 of 27
B. In addition, Tenant agrees to deposit with Landlord on the date hereof
the Forty Thousand Six Hundred Ninety-Two Dollars and 00/100 ($40,692.00)
Dollars, which sum shall be held by Landlord, without obligation for interest,
as security for the performance of Tenant's covenants and obligations under this
lease, it being expressly understood and agreed that such deposit is not an
advance rental deposit or a measure of Landlord's damages in case of Tenant's
default. Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord may,
from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy provided herein or
provided by law, use such fund to the extent necessary to make good any arrears
of rent or other payments due Landlord hereunder, and any other damage, injury,
expense or liability caused by such event of monetary default; and Tenant shall
pay to Landlord on demand the amount so applied in order to restore the security
deposit to its original amount. Although the security deposit shall be deemed
the property of Landlord, any remaining balance of such deposit shall be
returned by Landlord to Tenant within 60 days of the termination of this lease,
provided that all of Tenant's obligation under this lease have been fulfilled.
3. USE.
A. The demised Premises shall be used only for the purpose of general
office, receiving, storing, shipping and selling (other than retail) products,
materials, merchandise and alcoholic beverages made and/or distributed by Tenant
and for such other lawful purposes as may be incidental thereto, and subject to
the park covenants of record in effect as of the commencement of this Lease.
Outside storage, including without limitation, trucks (other than Tenant's "UPS"
size delivery trucks) and other vehicles, is prohibited without Landlord's prior
written consent. Tenant shall at its own cost and expense obtain any and all
licenses and permits necessary for any such use. Tenant shall comply with all
governmental laws, ordinances and regulations applicable to the use of the
Premises. and shall promptly comply with all governmental orders and directives
for the correction, prevention and abatement of nuisances in or upon, or
connected with. the Premises, all at Tenant's sole expense. Tenant shall not
permit any objectionable or unpleasant odors, smoke, dust, gas, noise or
vibrations to emanate from the Premises, not take any other action which would
constitute a unreasonable nuisance or would disturb or endanger any other
tenants of the building in which their Premises are situated or unreasonably
interfere with their use of their respective Premises. Without Landlord's prior
written consent, Tenant shall not receive, store or otherwise handle any
product, material or merchandise (other than products, in normal quantities,
used by Tenant for ordinary cleaning and janitorial supplies, products used for
office purposes, and typical grocery or drug merchandise) which is explosive or
highly flammable. Tenant will not permit the Premises to be used for any purpose
or in any manner (including without limitation any method of storage) which
would render the insurance thereon void or the insurance risk more hazardous or
cause the State Board of Insurance or other insurance authority to disallow any
sprinkler credits, without assuming additional costs related thereto. (See also
Additional Provisions, Section 13)
B. Tenant agrees that the point pressure resulting from Tenant's racking
system, inventory, forklifts and equipment pertaining to Tenant's use of the
Premises shall not exceed allowable design floor loading for floor slabs on
grade. Tenant shall hold harmless Landlord from any loss, liability, and
expenses arising out of such damage or repair caused by Tenant's negligence or
failure to comply with this paragraph.
4. TAXES.
A. Landlord agrees to pay before they become delinquent all taxes,
assessments and governmental charges of any kind and nature whatsoever
(hereinafter collectively referred to as "taxes") lawfully levied or assessed
against the Premises: provided however, that Tenant shall pay to Landlord as
additional rental, upon demand, the amount of such taxes. In the event any such
amount is not paid within twenty (20) days after the date of Landlord's invoice,
and applicable cure period, to Tenant, the unpaid amount shall bear interest at
the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the date of such receipt until
payment by Tenant. Landlord reserves the right to require Tenant during each
month of the lease term to pay an escrow deposit to Landlord equal to one-
twelfth of the taxes. If the Tenant's total tax escrow payments are less than
actual taxes, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the tax payment shortage;
if the total tax escrow payments of Tenant are more than actual taxes, Landlord
shall retain such excess and credit it to Tenant's next accruing tax escrow
payment. For the calendar year in which the Lease commences taxes are estimated
to be $0.35 per square foot.
B. If at any time during the term of this lease, the present method of
taxation shall be changed so that, in lieu of the whole or any part of any
taxes, assessments or governmental charges levied, assessed or imposed on real
estate and the improvements thereon, there shall be levied, assessed or imposed
on Landlord a capital levy or other tax directly on the rents received therefrom
and/or a franchise tax, assessment, levy or charge measured by or based, in
whole or in part, upon such rents for the present or any future building or
buildings on the Premises, then all such taxes, assessments, levies or charges,
or the part thereof so measured or based, shall be deemed to be included within
the term "taxes" for the purposes hereof.
C. The Landlord shall have the reasonable right to employ a tax consulting
firm to attempt to assure a fair tax burden on the building and grounds within
the applicable taxing jurisdiction. Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand
from time to time, as additional rent, the reasonable cost of such service.
D. Any payment to be made pursuant to this paragraph 4 with respect to the
real estate tax year in which this lease commences or terminates shall be
prorated.
5. LANDLORD'S REPAIRS AND OBLIGATIONS. Landlord shall at its expense
maintain only the roof, foundation and the structural soundness of the exterior
walls and structural steel of the Building in good repair, reasonable wear and
tear excepted. Landlord shall at its expense keep and maintain such structural

with
Page 2 of 27
applicable laws. Tenant shall repair and pay for any damage caused by the
negligence of Tenant, or Tenant's employees, agents or invitees, or caused by
Tenant's default hereunder. The term "walls" as used herein shall not include
windows, glass or plate glass, doors, store fronts or office entries. Tenant
shall immediately give Landlord written notice of defect or need for repairs,
after which Landlord shall have reasonable opportunity to repair same or cure
such defect. Landlord's liability with respect to any defects, repairs or
maintenance for which Landlord is responsible under any of the provisions of
this lease shall be limited to the cost of such repairs or maintenance or the
curing of such defect. Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails to
perform any obligation (monetary or non-monetary) required of Landlord as set
forth in this Lease within a reasonable time depending on the nature thereof,
but not later than thirty (30) days after Landlord's receipt of written notice
from Tenant specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform such obligation;
provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's obligation is such that more
than thirty (30) days are required for its cure then Landlord shall have such
longer period as may be reasonably required if Landlord promptly takes
corrective action and proceeds with due diligence to cure the same. (See Also
Additional Provision, Section 21)
6. TENANT'S REPAIRS AND OBLIGATIONS.
A. Tenant shall at its own cost and expense keep and maintain all parts of
the Premises (except those for which Landlord is expressly responsible under the
terms of this lease) in good condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted,

limited to, windows, glass and plate glass, doors, any office entries, interior
walls and finish work, floors and floor covering, downspouts, gutters, heating

by the insurance to be maintained by Landlord pursuant to subparagraph 12A
below, except that Tenant shall be obligated to repair all wind damage to glass
except with respect to tornado or hurricane damage.
B. Intentionally Omitted
C. Tenant and its employees, customers and licensees shall have the
exclusive right to use the parking areas as shown on Exhibit "A-1". Landlord

any third parties; provided however, that Landlord will reasonably assist Tenant
in enforcing Tenant's parking rights.
D. If Tenant fails to perform its obligations under this Lease beyond any
applicable notice and cure period, Landlord reserves the right to perform and
provide all or any part of Tenant's repairs and obligations under subparagraph
6A above, and Tenant shall, in lieu of the obligations set forth under
subparagraph 6A above with respect to such items, pay monthly as additional rent
due under subparagraph 2A the reasonable cost and expense, including reasonable
overhead, for those items. If, for any calendar year during which this Lease is
in effect, Tenant's total monthly payments made pursuant to this subparagraph
are less than actual cost of such repairs and obligations, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the payment shortage. If the total monthly payments are more than
actual cost of such repairs and obligations, Landlord shall retain such excess
and credit it to Tenant's next accruing monthly payment for such repairs and
obligations.
E. Intentionally omitted.
F. Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, enter into a regularly
scheduled preventive maintenance/service contract with a maintenance contractor
(or shall have on staff a qualified engineer) for servicing all hot water,
heating and air conditioning systems and equipment within the Premises. The
maintenance contractor and the contract (or staff engineer) must be approved by
Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed. The service contract (or Tenant's engineer's service protocol) must
meet industry standards for maintenance of such equipment and must become
effective (and a copy thereof delivered to the Landlord) within thirty (30) days
of the date Tenant takes possession of the Premises.
G. See Additional Provisions, Section 17
7. ALTERATIONS. Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or
improvements to the Premises (including but not limited to roof and wall
penetrations) without the prior written consent of Landlord, not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event Landlord consents to
the making of any such alterations, additions or improvements by Tenant, the
same shall be made by Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, in accordance
with all applicable laws, ordinances and regulations, and all reasonable
requirements of Landlord's and Tenant's insurance policies and only in
accordance with plans and specifications approved by Landlord, such consent not
to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant may, without the
consent of Landlord, but at its own cost and expense and in a good workmanlike
manner erect such shelves, bins, machinery and trade fixtures as it may deem
advisable, without altering the basic character of the building or improvements
and without overloading or damaging such building or improvements, and in each
case complying with all applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations
and other requirements. All alterations, additions, improvements and partitions
erected by Tenant shall be and remain the property of Tenant during the term of
this lease and Tenant shall, unless Landlord otherwise elects as hereinafter
provided, remove all alterations, additions, improvements and partitions erected
by Tenant and restore the Premises to their original condition by the date of
termination of this lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises, reasonable
wear and tear excepted; provided, however, that if Landlord so elects in writing
prior to termination of this lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises,
such alterations, additions, improvements and partitions (but not Tenant's trade
fixtures) shall become the property of Landlord as of the date of termination of
this lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises and shall be delivered up to
the Landlord with the Premises
Page 3 of 27
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, all shelves, bins, machinery and trade
fixtures installed by Tenant may be removed by Tenant prior to the termination
of this lease if Tenant so elects, and shall be removed by the date of
termination of this lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises if required
by Landlord. Upon any such removal Tenant shall restore the Premises to their
original condition, normal wear and tear excepted. All such removals and
restoration shall be accomplished in a good workmanlike manner so as not to
damage the primary structure or structural qualities of the building and other
improvements situated on the Premises. (See Additional Provisions, Section 8)
8. SIGNS. Tenant agrees to conform to Landlord's signage program for the
building; however, all costs and expenses for the sign, sign installation,
removal and repair shall be paid by Tenant, provided Tenant may use a portion of
its Allowance, as hereinafter defined, for such work. Tenant shall have the
right to install standard signs upon the Premises only where first approved in
writing by Landlord and subject to any applicable governmental laws, ordinances,
regulations and other requirements. Tenant shall remove all signs prior to the
termination of this lease. Such installations and removals shall be made in such
a manner as to avoid injury or defacement of the building and other
improvements, and Tenant shall repair any injury of defacement, including
without limitation, caused by installation and/or removal.
9. INSPECTION AND RIGHT OF ENTRY. Landlord and Landlord's agents and
representatives shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time in the
event of an emergency and to enter and inspect the Premises at any reasonable
time during business hours after 48 hours written notice to the manager of the
Premises, for the purpose of ascertaining the condition of the Premises or in
order to make such repairs as may be required or permitted to be made by
Landlord under the terms of this lease. During the period that is six (6) months
prior to the end of the term hereof, Landlord and Landlord's agents and
representatives shall have the right to enter the Premises at any reasonable
time during business hours for the purpose of showing the Premises and shall
have the right to erect on the Premises a suitable sign indicating the Premises
are available. Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord at least thirty (30)
days prior to vacating the Premises and shall arrange to meet with Landlord for
a joint inspection of the Premises prior to vacating. In the event of Tenant's
failure to give such notice or arrange such joint inspection, Landlord's
inspection at or after Tenant's vacating the Premises shall be conclusively
deemed correct for purposes of determining Tenant's responsibility for repairs
and restoration; provided that Landlord has attempted to arrange a joint
inspection and Tenant has failed to respond to Landlord's written request within
five days.
10. UTILITIES. Landlord agrees to provide at its cost water, electricity
and gas (when applicable) service connections at the Building's exterior in
accordance with the specifications, if any, attached hereto or provided by
Tenant pursuant to the provisions of Exhibit "B-1"; but Tenant shall pay for all
water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone, sewer, sprinkler charges and other
utilities and services used on or from the Premises, together with any taxes,
penalties, surcharges or the like pertaining thereto, and any maintenance
charges for utilities, and shall furnish all electric light bulbs and tubes.
Landlord shall in no event be liable for any interruption or failure of utility
services on the Premises not caused by Landlord, its agents or contractors.
Tenant has the right to negotiate and select provider of utilities among those
providers servicing the Premises.
11. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
A. Tenant shall not sell, assign, encumber or otherwise transfer by
operation of law or otherwise, this lease or any interest herein, sublet the
Premises or any portion thereof, or suffer any other person to occupy or use the
Premises or any portion thereof, without the prior written consent of Landlord
as provided herein, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, nor
shall Tenant permit any lien to be placed on the Tenant's interest by operation
of law. Tenant shall, by written notice, advise Landlord of its desire from and
after a stated date (which shall not be less than thirty (30) days ) to sublet
the Premises or any portion thereof for any part of the term thereof and if such
sublet is for the entire Premises Landlord shall have the right, to be exercised
by giving written notice to Tenant within ten (10) days after receipt of
Tenant's notice, to terminate this lease as of the date stated in Tenant's
notice. Said notice by Tenant shall state the name and address of the proposed
subtenant, and Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a true and complete copy of the
proposed sublease with said notice. If said notice shall specify all of the
Premises and Landlord shall give said termination notice with respect thereto,
this lease shall terminate on the date stated in Tenant's notice
B. Any subletting hereunder by Tenant shall not result in Tenant being
released or discharged from any liability under this lease. As a condition to
Landlord's prior written consent as provided for in subparagraph 11A above, the
subtenant or subtenants shall agree in writing to comply with and be bound by
all of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease
during the terms of such sublease, and Tenant shall deliver to Landlord promptly
after execution, an executed copy of each sublease and an agreement of said
compliance by each sublessee.
C. Landlord's consent to any sale, assignment, encumbrance, subletting,
occupation, lien or other transfer shall not release Tenant from any of Tenant's
obligations hereunder or be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent occurrence.
Any sale, assignment, encumbrance, subletting, occupation, lien or other
transfer of this lease which does not comply with the provisions of this
paragraph 11 or Section 9 of the Additional Provisions shall be null and void.
(See also Additional Provisions, Section 9)
12. FIRE AND CASUALTY DAMAGE.
A. Landlord agrees to maintain insurance covering the building of which the
Premises are a part in an amount not less than the full replacement cost
thereof, insuring against the perils of Fire, Lightning, Extended Coverage,
Vandalism and Malicious Mischief, extended by Special Extended Coverage
Endorsement to insure against all other Risks of Direct Physical Loss, such
coverages and endorsements to be as defined, provided and limited in the
standard bureau forms prescribed by the insurance regulatory authority for the
state in which the Premises are situated for use by insurance companies admitted
in such state for the writing of such insurance on risks located within such
state. The cost of such insurance coverage as stated above will be the
responsibility of Tenant and Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, as additional
rental, the amount of such insurance costs. Said payments shall be made to
Landlord within twenty (20) days after presentation to
Page 4 of 27
Tenant of Landlord's statement setting forth the amount due. Any payment to be
made pursuant to this subparagraph 12A with respect to the year in which this
lease commences or terminates shall bear the same ratio to the payment which
would be required to be made for the full year as the part of such year covered
by the term of this lease bears to a full year. Subject to the provisions of
subparagraphs 12C, 12D and 12E below, such insurance shall be for the benefit of
both Landlord and Tenant, but shall be under Landlord's sole control. For the
calendar year in which the Lease commences insurance costs are estimated to be
$0.065 per square foot.
B. If any increase in the fire and extended coverage insurance premiums
paid by Landlord or other Tenants for the building in which Tenant occupies
space is caused by Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises, or if Tenant
vacates the Premises of this Lease and causes an increase in such premiums, then
Tenant shall pay as additional rental the amount of such increase to Landlord.
C. If the buildings situated upon the Premises should be damaged or
destroyed by fire, tornado or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate
written notice thereof to Landlord.
D. If the Building should be totally destroyed by fire, tornado or other
casualty, or if they should be so damaged thereby that rebuilding or repairs
cannot in Landlord's reasonable estimation be completed within two hundred (200)
days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage,
this lease shall terminate and the rent shall be abated during the unexpired
portion of this lease, effective upon the date of the occurrence of such damage.
In the event Landlord elects to rebuild or repair, Landlord shall provide notice
of such election within sixty (60) days of Landlord's receipt of notice of such
damage. If Landlord fails to complete the rebuilding or within 260 days of the
date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, Tenant may give
Landlord written notice of its intent to terminate this Lease and if Landlord is
unable to complete such rebuilding or repairs within 30 days from such the date
of Landlord's receipt of such notification from Tenant, such termination shall
become effective. If Landlord estimates that rebuilding and repairs can not be
completed within two hundred (200) days after the date upon which Landlord is
notified by Tenant of such damage and Landlord chooses to terminate this Lease,
Tenant may choose to rebuild or repair the Premises at its sole expense;
provided however, that if Landlord has received insurance proceeds related to
such damage, said insurance proceeds will be applied to the cost of rebuilding
and repairing the Premises.
E. If the Building should be damaged by any peril covered by the insurance
to be provided by Landlord under subparagraph 12A above, but only to such extent
that rebuilding or repairs can in Landlord's estimation be completed within two
hundred (200) days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of
such damage, this lease shall not terminate, and Landlord shall at its sole cost
and expense thereupon proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild and repair
such buildings to substantially the condition in which they existed prior to
such damage, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or
replace any part of the partitions, fixtures, additions and other improvements
which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by Tenant and except
that Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand an amount not to exceed $25,000
per occurrence representing the maximum deductible on the insurance to be
provided by Landlord and except that Landlord may elect not to rebuild if such
damage occurs during the last year of the term of the lease exclusive of any
option which is unexercised at the time of such damage. If the Premises are
untenantable in whole or in part following such damage, the rent payable
hereunder during the period in which they are untenantable shall be reduced to
such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the circumstances. In the
event that Landlord should fail to complete such above referenced repairs and
rebuilding within two hundred (200) days after the date upon which Landlord is
notified by Tenant of such damage, Tenant may at its option terminate this lease
by delivering written notice of termination to Landlord as Tenant's exclusive
remedy, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder shall cease and
terminate.
F. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the holder
of any indebtedness secured by a mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises
requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then
Landlord shall have the right to terminate this lease by delivering written
notice of termination to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after such requirement
is made by any such holder, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder shall
cease and terminate. Within fifteen (15) days of receipt of notice Tenant may
notify Landlord in writing that Tenant elects to perform said repairs at
Tenant's sole cost and expense; provided however, that if Landlord has received
insurance proceeds above that applied to such indebtedness, said insurance
proceeds will be applied to the cost of rebuilding and repairing the Premises.
If Tenant elects to make the repairs the lease shall not terminate.
G. Each of Landlord and Tenant hereby releases the other from any loss or
damage to property caused by fire or any other perils insured in policies of
insurance covering such property, even if such loss or damage shall have been
caused by the fault or negligence of the other party, or anyone for whom such
party may be responsible; provided, however, that this release shall be
applicable and in force and effect only with respect to loss or damage occurring
during such times as the releasor's policies shall contain a clause or
endorsement to the effect that any such release shall not adversely affect or
impair said policies or prejudice the right of the releasor to recover
thereunder and then only to the extent of the insurance proceeds payable under
such policies. Each of the Landlord and Tenant agrees that it will request its
insurance carriers to include in its policies such a clause or endorsement. If
extra cost shall be charged therefore, each party shall advise the other thereof
and of the amount of the extra cost, and the other party, at its election, may
pay the same, but it shall not be obligated to do so.
13. LIABILITY.
A. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or Tenant's employees, agents,
patrons or visitors, or to any other person whomsoever, for any injury to person
or damage to property on or about the Premises, resulting from and/or caused in
part or whole by the negligence or misconduct of Tenant, its agents, servants or
employees, or of any other person entering upon the Premises, or caused by the
buildings and improvements located on the Premises becoming out of repair,
(through no fault or breach of this lease by Landlord) or caused by leakage of
gas, oil, water or steam or by electricity emanating from the Premises during
the lease term, or due to any cause whatsoever and Tenant

property the cause of which is the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord,
its agents and contractors or the failure of Landlord to repair any part of the
Premises which Landlord is obligated to repair and maintain hereunder within a
reasonable time after the receipt of written notice from Tenant of needed
repairs.
B. Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord or Landlord's employees, agents,
patrons or visitors, or to any other person whomsoever for any injury to person
or damage to property on or about the Premises, resulting from and/or caused in
part or whole by the negligence or misconduct of Landlord, its agents, servants
or employees, or invitees entering upon the Premises, or caused by the Premises
becoming out of repair, (through no fault or breach of this lease by Tenant),
and Landlord hereby covenants and agrees that it will at all times indemnify,
including the indemnity for Hazardous Materials set forth herein below, and hold
safe and harmless the property, Tenant, Tenant's agents and employees from any
loss, liability, claims, suits, costs, expenses, including without limitation
attorney's fees and damages, both real and alleged, arising out of or relating
to any such damage or injury; except injury to persons or damage to property the
cause of which is the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, its agents and
contractors or the failure of Tenant to repair any part of the Premises which
Tenant is obligated to repair and maintain hereunder within any applicable
notice and cure periods.
C. Tenant shall procure and maintain throughout the term of this lease a
policy or policies of insurance, including pollution and site remediation
insurance, at its sole cost and expense, insuring both Landlord and Tenant
against all claims, demands or actions arising out of or in connection with: (i)
the Premises; (ii) the condition of the Premises; (iii) Tenant's operations in
and maintenance and use of the Premises; and (iv) Tenant's liability assumed
under this lease, the limits of such policy or policies to be in the amount of
not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence in respect to injury to persons
(including death), and in the amount of not less than $2,000,000 per occurrence
in respect to property damage or destruction, including loss of use thereof. All
such policies shall be procured by Tenant from responsible insurance companies
satisfactory to Landlord. Certified copies or certificate of such policies shall
be delivered to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date of this lease. Not less
than fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration date of any such policies,
certified copies of the renewals thereof shall be delivered to Landlord. Such
policies shall further provide that not less than thirty (30) days written
notice shall be given to Landlord before such policy may be canceled or changed
to reduce insurance provided thereby.
14. CONDEMNATION.
A. If the whole or any substantial part of the Premises should be taken for
any public or quasi-public use under governmental law, ordinance or regulation,
or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lien thereof, and the
taking would prevent or materially interfere with the use of the Premises for
the purpose for which they are being used, this lease shall terminate and the
rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this lease, effective when
the physical taking of said Premises shall occur.
B. If part of the Premises shall be taken for any public or quasi-public
use under any governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent
domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, and this lease is not terminated
as provided in subparagraph 14A above, this lease shall not terminate but the
rent payable hereunder during the unexpired portion of this lease shall be
reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the
circumstances.
C. All compensation awarded for any taking (or the proceeds of private sale
in lieu thereof of the Premises, buildings or other improvements, or any part
thereof, shall be the property of Landlord and Tenant hereby assigns its
interest in any such award to Landlord; provided, however, Landlord shall have
no interest in any award made to Tenant for loss of business, the loss of lease
benefits, costs of moving or the taking of Tenant's fixtures and improvements if
a separate award for such items is made to Tenant.
15. HOLDING OVER. Tenant will, at the termination of this lease by lapse of
time or otherwise, yield up immediate possession to Landlord with all repairs
and maintenance required herein to be performed by Tenant completed. If Landlord
agrees in writing that Tenant may hold over after the expiration or termination
of this lease, unless the parties hereto otherwise agree in writing on the terms
of such holding over, the hold over tenancy shall be subject to termination by
Landlord at any time upon not less than twenty (20) days advance written notice,
or by Tenant at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days advance written
notice, and all of the other terms and provisions of this lease shall be
applicable during that period, except that Tenant shall pay Landlord monthly
rental for the period of any hold over, an amount equal to one and one half (1-
1/2) the rent in effect on the termination date, computed on a daily basis for
each day of the hold over period. No holding over by Tenant, whether with or
without consent of Landlord, shall operate to extend this lease except as
otherwise expressly provided. The preceding provisions of this paragraph 15
shall not be construed as consent for Tenant to hold over.
16. QUIET ENJOYMENT. Landlord covenants that it now has, or will acquire
before Tenant takes possession of the Premises, good title to the Premises, free
and clear of all liens and encumbrances, excepting only the lien for current
taxes not yet due, such mortgage or mortgages as are permitted by the terms of
this lease, zoning ordinances and other building and fire ordinances and
governmental regulations relating to the use of such property, and easements,
restrictions and other conditions of record as of the date hereof. Landlord
represents end warrants that it has full right and authority to enter into this
lease and that Tenant, upon paying the rental herein set forth and performing
its other material covenants and agreements herein set forth (within any
applicable notice and cure period), shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and
enjoy the Premises for the term hereof without hindrance or molestation from
Landlord, subject to the terms and
Page 6 of 27
provisions of this lease. Landlord covenants that it will not grant, without
Tenant's prior written consent, any future easements, licenses or such other
similar restrictions affecting Tenant's use of the Premises and Tenant's ingress
to and egress from the Premises.
17. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The following events shall be deemed to be events of
default by Tenant under this lease:
A. Tenant shall fail to pay any installment of the rent herein reserved
when due, or any other payment or reimbursement to Landlord required herein when
due, and such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) days from the date
Tenant receives written notice of such failure; or
B. Tenant shall abandon all or a substantial portion of the Premises or
fail to continuously operate its business at the Premises for the permitted use
set forth in Paragraph 3 whether or not Tenant is in default of the rental
payments due under this lease, without providing a commercially reasonable level
of security, or without providing reasonable assurance to minimize potential
vandalism; or
C. Tenant shall fail to discharge or bond against any lien placed upon the
Premises in violation of Paragraph 20 hereof within twenty (20) business days
after any such lien or encumbrance is filed against the Premises; or
D. Tenant shall fail to comply with any term, provision or covenant of this
lease (other than the foregoing in this Paragraph 17), and shall not cure such
failure within twenty (20) business days after written notice thereof to Tenant
or such longer period as may be reasonably required if Tenant promptly takes
corrective action and continually proceeds with due diligence to cure same.
18. REMEDIES
A. Upon each occurrence of an event of default, Landlord shall have the
option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any notice or
demand:
(1) Terminate this lease, and/or
(2) Enter upon and take possession of the Premises with or without
terminating this lease; and/or
(3) Alter all locks and other security devices at the Premises with or
without terminating this lease, and pursue, at Landlord's option, one or
more remedies pursuant to this lease, Tenant hereby specifically waiving
any state or federal law to the contrary;
and in any such event Tenant immediately shall surrender its Premises to
Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord, without waiving any other
remedy it may have, may enter upon and take possession of the Premises or any
part thereof and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be
occupying such Premises or part thereof, by force if necessary, without being
liable for prosecution or any claim of damages therefor.
B. In the event Tenant fails to pay any installment of rent hereunder as
and when such installment is due, to help defray the additional cost to Landlord
for processing such late payments Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand a late
charge in an amount equal to five (5%) percent of such installment; and the
failure to pay such amount within five (5) business days after demand therefore
shall be an event of default hereunder. The provision for such late charge shall
be in addition to all of Landlord's other rights and remedies hereunder or at
law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord's
remedies in any manner.
C. In the event Tenant's check given to Landlord in payment, is returned by
the bank for non-payment, Tenant agrees to pay all expenses incurred by Landlord
as a result thereof.
D. In the event of a default or threatened default of this Lease by Tenant,
Landlord shall be entitled to all equitable remedies, including, without
limitation injunction and specific performance. The various rights, remedies,
powers, options and elections of Landlord reserved, expressed or contained in
this lease are cumulative, and no one of them shall be deemed to be exclusive of
the others, or of such other rights, remedies, powers, options or elections as
are now, or may hereafter, be conferred upon Landlord by law or in equity.
Failure by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided shall
not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default, or any
violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions, or covenants herein
contained, or a waiver of Landlord's right thereafter to insist upon strict
compliance with the terms hereof.
E. In the event Landlord elects to terminate the lease by reason of an
event of default, then notwithstanding such termination, Tenant shall be liable
for and shall pay to Landlord, at the address specified for notice to Landlord
herein, the sum of all rental and other indebtedness accrued to date of such
termination, plus, as damages, an amount equal to the total rent hereunder for
the remaining portion of the lease term (had such term not been terminated by
Landlord prior to the expiration stated in Paragraph 1).
F. In the event Landlord elects to repossess the Premises without
terminating the lease, or in the event Landlord elects to terminate the lease,
then Tenant, at Landlord's option, shall be liable for and shall pay to
Landlord, at the address specified for notice to Landlord herein, all rental and
other indebtedness accrued to the date of such repossession, plus rental
required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord during the remainder of the lease term
until the date of expiration of the term as stated in Paragraph 1 diminished by
any net sums thereafter received by Landlord through releting the Premises
during said period (after deducting expenses incurred by Landlord as provided in
subparagraph 18G below). In no event shall Tenant be entitled to any excess of
any rental obtained by releting over and above the rental herein reserved.
Action to collect amounts due by Tenant to Landlord under this subparagraph may
be brought from time to time, on one or
Page 7 of 27
more occasions, without the necessity of Landlord's waiting until the expiration
of the lease term. Landlord agrees to make commercially reasonable efforts to
mitigate its damages.
G. In the case of any event of default or breach by Tenant, or threatened
or anticipated breach or default as a result of bankruptcy, Tenant shall also be
liable for and shall pay to Landlord, at the address specified for notice to
Landlord herein, in addition to any sum provided to paid above, broker's fees
incurred by Landlord in connection with releting the whole or any part of the
Premises; the cost of removing storing Tenant's or other occupant's property;
the cost of repairing, altering, remodeling or otherwise putting the Premises
into condition acceptable to a new tenant or tenants, and all reasonable
expenses incurred by Landlord enforcing or defending Landlord's rights and/or
remedies including reasonable attorney's fees.
H. In the event of termination or repossession of the Premises for an event
of default, Landlord shall not have any obligation to relet or attempt to relet
the Premises, or any portion thereof, or to collect rental after releting; and
in the event of releting, Landlord may relet the whole or any portion of the
Premises for any period to any tenant for any purpose; provided, however, that
Landlord agrees to make commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages.
I. If Tenant should fail to make any payment or cure any default hereunder
within the time herein permitted, Landlord, without being under any obligation
to do so and without thereby waiving such default, may make such payment and/or
remedy such other default for the account of Tenant (and enter the Premises for
such purpose), and thereupon Tenant shall be obliged to, and hereby agrees to
pay Landlord upon demand, all costs, expenses and disbursements (including
reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by Landlord in taking such remedial action.
J. In the event that Landlord shall have taken possession of the Premises
pursuant to the authority herein granted, then Landlord shall have the right to
keep in place and use all of the furniture, fixtures and equipment at the
Premises, including that which is owned by or leased to Tenant at all times
prior to any foreclosure thereon by Landlord or repossession thereof by any
lessor thereof or third party having a lien thereon. Landlord shall also have
the right to remove from the Premises (without the necessity of obtaining a
distress warrant, writ of sequestration or other legal process) all or any
portion of such furniture, fixtures, equipment and other property located
thereon and to place same in storage at any Premises within the County in which
the Premises is located; and in such event, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord
for costs incurred by Landlord in connection with such removal and storage.
Landlord shall also have the right to relinquish possession of all or any
portion of such furniture, fixtures, equipment and other property to any person
("Claimant") claiming to be entitled to possession thereof who presents to
Landlord a copy of any instrument represented to Landlord by Claimant to have
been executed by Tenant (or any predecessor Tenant) granting Claimant the right
under various circumstances to take possession of such furniture, fixtures,
equipment or other property, without the necessity on the part of Landlord to
inquire into the authenticity of said instrument's copy of Tenant's or Tenant's
predecessor's signature(s) thereon and without the necessity of Landlord making
any investigation or inquiry as to the validity of the factual or legal basis
upon which Claimant purports to act; and Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold
Landlord harmless from all cost, expense, loss, damage and liability incident to
Landlord's relinquishment of possession of all or any portion of such furniture,
fixtures, equipment or other property to Claimant. The rights of Landlord herein
stated shall be in addition to any and all other rights which Landlord has or
may hereafter have at law or in equity; and Tenant stipulates and agrees that
the rights herein granted Landlord are commercially reasonable.
19. MORTGAGES.
A. Tenant accepts this lease subject and subordinate to any mortgage(s)
and/or deed(s) of trust now or at any time hereafter constituting a lien or
charge upon the Premises or the improvements situated thereon, provided however,
that if the mortgagee, trustee, or holder of any such mortgage or deed of trust
elects to have Tenant's interest in this lease superior to any such instrument,
then by notice to Tenant from such mortgagee, trustee or holder, this lease
shall be deemed superior to such lien, whether this lease was executed before or
after said mortgage or deed of trust. Tenant shall at any time hereafter on
demand execute any reasonable instruments, releases or other documents which may
be required by any mortgagee for the purpose of subjecting and subordinating
this lease to the lien of any such mortgage, provided that Landlord secures a
non-disturbance agreement in a form as attached in Exhibit "C" or such
reasonably similar agreement from such mortgagee. All mortgages or deeds of
trust referred to in this subparagraph 19A refer to first mortgages or deeds of
trust only. (See also Additional Provisions, Section 10)
B. Tenant agrees not to look to the mortgagee, as mortgagee, mortgagee in
possession, or successor entitled to the property, for accountability for any
security deposit required by the Landlord hereunder, unless said sums have been
received by said mortgagee as security for Tenant's performance of this lease.
20. MECHANICS LIENS AND OTHER TAXES. Tenant shall have no authority,
express or implied, to create or place any lien or encumbrance of any kind or
nature whatsoever upon, or in any manner to bind the interests of Landlord in
the Premises or to charge the rentals payable hereunder for any claim in favor
of any person dealing with Tenant, including those who may furnish materials or
perform labor for any construction or repairs, and each such claim shall affect
and each such lien shall attach to, if at all, only the leasehold interest
granted to Tenant by this instrument. Tenant covenants and agrees that it will
pay or cause to be paid all sums legally due and payable by it on account of any
labor performed or materials furnished in connection with any work performed on
the Premises (provided such work is at Tenant's direction and is not performed
by Landlord or its contractors) on which any lien is or can be validly and
legally asserted against its leasehold interest in the Premises or the
improvements thereon and that it will save and hold Landlord harmless from any
and all loss, cost or expense based on or arising out of asserted claims or
liens against the leasehold estate or against the right, title and interest of
the Landlord in the Premises or under the terms of this lease. Tenant agrees to
give Landlord immediate written notice if any lien or encumbrance is placed on
the Premises.

governmental laws, ordinances, regulations and other requirements with reference

effect as if each had received such notice.
22. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS.
A. For purposes of this section, "Hazardous Materials" shall include all
solid, liquid or gaseous materials defined or regulated as wastes under any
federal statute or regulation or any state or local law, regulation or ordinance
and shall further include all other substances defined or regulated as
pollutants or as hazardous, toxic, infectious, or radioactive substances under
any federal statute or regulation or any state or local law, regulation or
ordinance, all as amended from time to time.
B. Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be used,
generated, stored or disposed of on, under or about, or transported to or from
the Premises (collectively, "Hazardous Materials Activities") except in
compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations,
ordinances and order governing such Hazardous Materials or Hazardous Materials
Activities, which compliance shall be at Tenant's sole cost and expense.
Additionally, Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be
disposed of on, under or about the Premises without the express prior written
consent of the Landlord, which may be withheld for any reason and may be revoked
at any time. Tenant further agrees, at all times, to fully disclose in writing
to Landlord the storage, handling, disposal or use of Hazardous Materials under,
on or about the Premises and the property in which the Premises is located.
C. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or to any other party for any
Hazardous Materials Activities conducted or permitted on, under or about the
Premises by Tenant or by Tenant's employees, agents, contractors, licensees or
invitees, and Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from any
claims, damages, fines, penalties, losses, judgments, costs and liabilities
arising out of or related to any Hazardous Materials Activities conducted or
permitted on, under or about the Premises by Tenant or by Tenant's employees,
agents, contractors, licensees or invitees, regardless of whether Landlord shall
have consented to, approved of, participated in or had notice of such Hazardous
Materials Activities. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the
expiration or termination of this lease.
D. At the expiration or earlier termination of this lease, Tenant shall
remove from the Premises, at Tenant's sole expense, all Hazardous Materials
located, stored and disposed of on, under or about the Premises during the lease
term, unless caused by a party other than Tenant or Tenant's employees, agents,
contractors, licensees, invitees, subtenants or assignees. Tenant shall close,
remove or otherwise
Page 9 of 27
render safe any buildings, tanks, containers or other facilities related to the
Hazardous Materials Activities conducted or permitted on the Premises during the
lease term in the manner required by all applicable laws, regulations,
ordinances or orders.
E. See Additional Provisions, Section 11
23. INSOLVENCY OR BANKRUPTCY. The appointment of a receiver to take
possession of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, or an assignment
of Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or any action taken or suffered by
Tenant under any insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization act, shall at
Landlord's option constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant, unless such
proceedings are involuntary and Tenant is discharged from the same within sixty
(60) days. Upon the happening of any such event or at any time thereafter, this
Lease shall terminate five (5) days after written notice of termination from
Landlord to Tenant. In no event shall this Lease be assigned or assignable by
operation of law or by voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or
otherwise and in no event shall this Lease or any rights or privileges hereunder
be an asset of Tenant under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization
proceedings.
24. LANDLORD'S LIABILITY. Any liability of Landlord hereunder shall be
enforceable only out of the Premises, including the proceeds thereof and
therefrom and in no event out of any other assets of Landlord or the separate
assets of any constituent partner, shareholder or member of Landlord. No holder
or beneficiary of any mortgage or deed of trust on any part of the Property
shall have any liability to Tenant hereunder for any default of Landlord. This
provision is not intended to be a measure or agreed amount of the Landlord's
liability with respect to any particular breach, and shall not be utilized by
any court or otherwise for the purpose of determining any liability of Landlord
hereunder, except only as a maximum amount not to be exceeded in any event.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to section 21 of the Additional
Provisions, in the event Landlord's liability, as established by a court, for
any breach of this Lease exceeds Landlord's equity value in the Building or
Property (the mortgage or deed of trust on the Property is for an amount greater
than the value of the Property) and Tenant has exhausted all other legal
remedies available to Tenant to collect payment, including written notification
to the holder or beneficiary of any mortgage or deed of trust on the Property,
then and only then, Tenant may offset against Base Rent the uncollected amount
of Landlord's liability established by the court that exceeds Landlord's equity
value in the Building or Property.
25. MISCELLANEOUS.
A. Words of any gender used in this lease shall be held and construed to
include any other gender, and words in the singular number shall be held to
include the plural, unless the context otherwise requires.
B. In the event the Premises constitutes a portion of a multiple occupancy
building, building complex or Business Park, Tenant's "proportionate share" as
used in this lease, shall mean a fraction, the numerator of which is the space
contained in the Premises and the denominator of which is the entire leasable
space contained in the building, building complex or Business Park.
C. The terms, provisions and covenants and conditions contained in this
lease shall apply to, insure to the benefit of, and be binding upon the parties
hereto and upon their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and
permitted assigns, except as otherwise herein expressly provided. Landlord shall
have the right to reasonably assign any of its rights and obligations under this
lease. Each party agrees to furnish to the other, promptly upon demand, a
corporate resolution, proof of due authorization by partners, or other
appropriate documentation evidencing the due authorization of such party to
enter into this lease.
D. The captions inserted in this lease are for convenience only and in no
way define, limit or otherwise describe the scope or intent of this lease, or
any provision hereof, or in any way affect the interpretation of this lease.
E. Tenant agrees from time to time within ten (10) days after request of
Landlord, to deliver to Landlord, or Landlord's designee a certificate of
occupancy (if applicable) and an estoppel certificate stating (to the extent
such statements are then true and within Tenant's knowledge) that this lease is
in full force and effect, the date to which rent has been paid, the unexpired
term of this lease and such other matters pertaining to this lease as may be
requested by Landlord. It is understood and agreed that Tenant's obligation to
furnish such estoppel certificates in a timely fashion is a material inducement
for Landlord's execution of this lease.
F. This lease may not be altered, changed or amended except by an
instrument in writing signed by both parties hereto.
G. All obligations of Tenant or Landlord hereunder not fully performed as
of the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this lease shall survive
the expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof, including without
limitation all payment obligations with respect to taxes and insurance and all
obligations concerning the condition of the Premises. Tenant shall also, prior
to vacating the Premises, pay to Landlord the amount, as estimated by Landlord,
of Tenant's obligation hereunder for real estate taxes and insurance premiums
for the year in which the lease expires or terminates. All such amounts shall be
used and held by Landlord for payment of such obligations of Tenant hereunder,
with Tenant being liable for any additional costs therefor upon demand by
Landlord, or with any excess to be returned to Tenant after all such obligations
have been determined and satisfied, as the case may be. Any security deposit
held by Landlord shall be credited against the amount payable by Tenant under
this subparagraph 25G. The balance of any unused portion of the security deposit
shall be returned to Tenant.
H. If any clause or provision of this lease is illegal, invalid or
unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this
lease, then and in that event, it is the intention of the parties hereto that
the remainder of this lease shall not be affected thereby, and it is also the
intention of the parties to this lease that in lieu of each clause or provision
of this lease that is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, there be added as a
part of this lease contract a clause or provision as similar in terms to such
illegal, invalid or unenforceable clause or provision as may be possible and be
legal, valid and enforceable.
Page 10 of 27
I. Because the Premises are on the open market and are presently being
shown, this lease shall be treated as an offer with the Premises being subject
to prior lease and such offer subject to withdrawal or non-acceptance by
Landlord or to other use of the Premises without notice, and this lease shall
not be valid or binding unless and until accepted by Landlord in writing and a
fully executed copy delivered to both parties hereto.
J. All references in this lease to "the date hereof" or similar references
shall be deemed to refer to the last date, in point of time, on which all
parties hereto have executed this lease.
K. Time is of the essence of this lease and all of its provisions. This
lease in all respects shall be governed by the laws of the State of Georgia.
L. Tenant shall not install drapes, curtains, blinds or any window
treatment without Landlord's prior written approval, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
M. The duties and obligations of Tenant herein shall be binding upon all or
any of them. The duties and obligations of Tenant shall run and extend not only
to the benefit of the Landlord, as named herein, but to the following, at the
option of the following or any of them: (i) any person by, through or under
which Landlord derives the right to lease the Premises; (ii) the owner of the
Premises; and (iii) holders of mortgage or rent assignment interests in the
Premises, as their respective interests may appear; provided, however, nothing
contained herein shall be construed to obligate Tenant to pay rent to any person
other than the Landlord until such time as Tenant has been given written notice
of either an exercise of a rent assignment or the succession of some other party
to the interests of Landlord.
N. In order to induce Landlord to enter into this Lease Agreement, Tenant
agrees to provide to Landlord, before the initiation of construction of the
Premises and at any other time when reasonably requested by Landlord, an audited
balance sheet and income statement for the fiscal year most recently concluded.
Such balance sheet and income statement shall be for the legal entity which is
entering into the Lease Agreement with Landlord and/or the entity guaranteeing
the performance of Tenant's obligations under the lease. Tenant fully
understands and agrees that a request for such information by Landlord's lender
or a prospective buyer for the Building will be deemed reasonable.
O. Tenant acknowledges that "smoking" is prohibited in all areas of the
Premises and the building. For purposes hereof, "smoking" means inhaling,
exhaling, burning or carrying any lighted cigar, cigarette, pipe or other
smoking equipment or device in any manner or from. Notwithstanding anything in
this Lease to the contrary, no liability shall attach to the Landlord for any
failure to enforce this provision (or similar provisions in other leases).
