IMPROVED LEASE
PREMISES. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease,

Premises in accordance with the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit “C” and
incorporated herein. Lessee agrees to the terms and conditions set
forth on Exhibit “C” hereto. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that this
Lease shall be in all respects subject to the terms and conditions of the Ground
Lease, provided however that in no event shall the Lessee hereunder be entitled
to exercise any right of first refusal granted in the Ground Lease unless
expressly assigned by Lessor to Lessee.
1
2.
TERM.
(a) The
term of this Lease for the Improved Lease Premises (the “Term”) shall be nine
(9) years commencing on the date Lessor has substantially completed the
improvements in accordance with the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit “C”
and a certificate of occupancy is issued by the applicable municipal authority
(the "Commencement Date") and ending at midnight on the day preceding the ninth
(9th)
anniversary of the Commencement Date.
(b) Provided
that Lessee shall not then be in default hereunder, Lessee shall have the option
to extend the Term of this Lease for one (1) renewal term of six (6) years,
followed by two (2) successive renewal terms of five (5) years each, followed by
one (1) additional renewal period of four (4) years and eleven (11) months
(each, a “Renewal Term”), on the same terms and conditions set forth herein and
with the rental for each Renewal Term continuing to increase at the rate of two
and one-half percent (2-1/2%) per year such that the rental for each lease year
during any Renewal Term shall be 102.5% of the rental for the immediately
preceding lease year as set forth on Exhibit “D” hereto. Lessee’s
extension rights provided herein shall be deemed exercised unless Lessee gives
Lessor written notice of its election not to extend the term of this Lease no
later than eight (8) months prior to the expiration of the then-current Term or
any Renewal Term.
(c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, this Lease shall automatically and
without further action terminate upon termination of the Ground Lease, unless
Lessor shall have acquired fee simple title to the Improved Lease
Premises.
(d) Notwithstanding
the Commencement Date of the Term, Lessee shall be bound by all of the terms and
conditions hereof, from and after the date of execution of this
Lease.
3.
USE. Lessee
shall use the Improved Lease Premises as an Embassy Bank or any successor bank
or, with Lessor’s and Ground Lessor’s prior written consent, for any other
lawful purpose permitted under zoning and other applicable laws, ordinances, and
regulations. Lessee shall comply in all respects with the use
provisions set forth in Article V of the Ground Lease.
4.
RENT.
(a) Until
the Commencement Date, Lessee shall pay to Ground Lessor all rents and other
sums due (whether to Ground Lessor or third parties) under the Ground
Lease. In the event that at the Commencement Date, Lessee shall have
previously paid rent to the Ground Lessor pursuant to the Ground Lease for the
period of the first month’s rent hereunder, Lessee shall be entitled to a
pro-rata, dollar-for-dollar credit against the rent due hereunder for such
amount paid under the Ground Lease.
(b) During
the first year of the Term, Lessee shall pay to Lessor as minimum annual rent
the sum of One Hundred Sixty-five Thousand Four Hundred Twenty Dollars
($165,420.00), payable in equal monthly installments of Thirteen Thousand Seven
Hundred Eighty-five Dollars ($13,785.00) each. Thereafter, for each
Lease year during the Term and any Renewal Term, minimum annual rent shall equal
the minimum annual rent payable in the immediately preceding Lease year,
multiplied by 102.5% (e.g., the prior year’s rental plus an increase of 2.5%) as
set forth in Exhibit “D” attached hereto. Such minimum annual rent
shall be payable in advance, in equal monthly installments on the first day of
each calendar month during the Term and any Renewal Term hereof, without demand,
offset or deduction, and shall be payable in lawful money of the United States
of America. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee acknowledges and
agrees that the minimum annual rent for the first year of the Term is subject to
adjustment in the event of modification of the scope of Lessor Work as set forth
in the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit “C” and/or unforeseen subsurface
conditions, provided that such adjustment shall be limited to the actual cost of
the additional Lessor Work undertaken and the actual construction management
fees applicable thereto.
2
(c) This
Lease is intended to be a "triple net" lease. Accordingly, Lessee
agrees to pay as additional rent, all charges for utilities, taxes, property
insurance, assessments and other governmental charges with respect to the
Improved Lease Premises and as may be further provided in this Lease or charged
to Lessor under the Ground Lease, including without limitation monthly and other
CAM charges as required pursuant to the Ground Lease. It is the
parties’ intent that Lessee shall pay all such charges directly. In
the event Lessor shall receive any such charges, Lessor shall xxxx Lessee for
any such charges and Lessee shall promptly pay Lessor for such charges upon
invoice. In the event of nonpayment of additional rent, Lessor shall
have, in addition to all other rights and remedies, all the rights and remedies
provided for herein or by law in the case of nonpayment of the minimum
rent.
(d) For
all purposes under this Lease, rent shall mean both minimum and additional
rent. Rent shall be delivered to Lessor at Lessor's address as set
forth above, or at such other place or to such other person as Lessor may
designate in writing from time to time.
(e) If
any default by Lessor in its obligations with respect to this Lease or the
Ground Lease results in an emergency or a loss of services to or within the
Improved Lease Premises or threatens Lessee’s right to possession of Improved
Lease Premises, and provided that Lessee is not then (and continues thereafter
not to be) in default under this Lease, Lessee shall, upon not less than thirty
(30) days prior written notice to Lessor of such default and provided that
Lessor shall fail within such thirty (30) days (or a reasonable time thereafter
if such default is not capable of cure within thirty (30) days) to cure such
default, have the right to itself cure Lessor’s default. Upon
Lessee’s paying the reasonable costs to cure Lessor’s default and providing paid
receipts therefor to Lessor, Lessor shall reimburse Lessee for such costs within
thirty (30) days of Lessor’s receipt of the documentation of such
costs. In the event Lessor fails to substantially complete the Lessor
Work as set forth in Exhibit “C” hereto, by __8/15/2010___(subject
however to force majeure), and Lessee is not then (and continues thereafter not
to be) in default under this Lease, Lessor shall, upon thirty (30) days prior
written notice thereof to Lessor and Lessor’s failure within such period to
complete the Lessor Work, have the right to complete the Lessor Work at Lessee’s
cost. Upon Lessee’s paying the reasonable cost of such completion and
providing paid receipts therefor to Lessor, Lessor shall reimburse Lessee such
costs within thirty (30) days of Lessor’s receipt of the documentation of said
costs.
3
(f) In
the event that Lessor fails to pay any monthly installment of Minimum Rent due
under the Ground Lease following any applicable notice and cure period, Lessee
shall have the right to pay such unpaid monthly installment of Minimum Rent due
under the Ground Lease and, upon such payment and provided that Lessee shall
have previously paid to Lessor the entire monthly installment of rent due under
this Lease for the same month that the Ground Lease monthly installment was due
and unpaid, to offset against the next monthly installment of minimum rent due
under this Lease, the amount of the monthly installment of Minimum Rent so paid
by Lessee to the Ground Lessor. Lessee shall give prior written
notice of such set-off to Lessor’s mortgagee.
5.
ALTERATIONS AND
IMPROVEMENTS.
(a) Lessee
shall not make or cause to be made any alterations, additions or improvements to
the Improved Lease Premises without the prior written consent of
Lessor. All alterations, additions or improvements approved by Lessor
shall be made solely at Lessee's expense by a contractor approved by Lessor,
shall be made in a good and workmanlike manner and shall be performed in
compliance with all laws, ordinances and requirements of any and all Federal,
State, Municipal and/or other authorities, the Board of Fire Underwriters and
any mortgages to which the Improved Lease Premises is subject. Any
alteration, addition or improvement made by Lessee under this Section 5, and any
fixtures installed as a part thereof, shall, at Lessor's option, become the
property of Lessor upon the expiration or other termination of this
Lease. Lessor shall have the right, however, to require Lessee to
remove such fixtures at Lessee's cost upon such termination of this Lease, and
Lessee shall promptly remove the same and repair any damage to the Improved
Lease Premises caused by such removal. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Lessee shall not be obligated to remove the vault from the Improved Lease
Premises.
(b) All
persons to whom these presents may come are put upon notice of the fact that
Lessee shall never, under any circumstances, have the power to subject the
interest of Lessor, Ground Lessor or any mortgagee in the Improved Lease
Premises to any mechanic's, materialman's or similar lien.
(c) Any
contract or agreement for labor, equipment, services, materials or supplies in
connection with the rights set forth hereunder shall provide that no lien or
claim shall thereby be created or arise, or be filed by anyone thereunder, upon
or against the Improved Lease Premises and/or the interest of Lessor, Ground
Lessor or any mortgagee, or the buildings or improvements thereon to be erected
on the Improved Lease Premises or any of the equipment thereof.
(d) In
the event of a lien or claim of any kind, arising out of the exercise of the
rights set forth hereunder by Lessee, its agents, employees, contractors,
subcontractors, and materialmen, being filed against the interest of Lessor,
Ground Lessor, any mortgagee and/or against the Improved Lease Premises, Lessee
covenants and agrees that at its expense it will within thirty (30) days after
written notice from Lessor, or within such shorter time as may be required
pursuant to the Ground Lease, cause the Improved Lease Premises and any such
interest therein to be released from the legal effect of such lien or claim,
either by payment or by posting of bond or by the payment into court of the
amount necessary to relieve and release the Improved Lease Premises or the
interest from such claim or in any manner satisfactory to Lessor, Ground Lessor
and any mortgagee. If Lessee desires to contest the validity of any
lien or claim, Lessee may do so upon Lessor's prior written consent, provided
Lessee sustains the cost of such contest, and Lessee remains liable to pay or
discharge any lien or claim deemed to be due or payable. Lessee
hereby indemnifies and holds Lessor harmless against any and all liability, loss
or damage sustained by Lessor by reason of such contest, unless such contest
arises from any negligent or intentional act or omission of Lessor.
4
6.
UTILITIES. Lessee
shall pay, when the same shall become due, all charges for utilities consumed by
it on the Improved Lease Premises including without limitation electricity, heat
and telephone, and any other utilities, as well as water and sewer
charges. Lessor shall not be required to furnish to Lessee any
utility, janitorial or other service of any kind whatsoever during the Term of
this Lease.
7.
MAINTENANCE AND
REPAIRS. Lessor has made no representations concerning the
condition of the Improved Lease Premises other than that the improvements will
be completed in accordance with the agreement between the parties as referred to
in Section 1 hereof. Lessee shall maintain and be responsible for
maintaining and repairing all portions of the Improved Lease
Premises. Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall take good care
of the Improved Lease Premises and will maintain the same in good order and
condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and make all necessary repairs
thereto, interior as well as exterior, including and without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, roof and structural members, including
walls. Lessee shall be responsible for the routine regular cleaning
and maintenance of the Improved Lease Premises, snow removal and landscaping and
shall keep all portions of the Improved Lease Premises in a clean and orderly
condition, free of unlawful obstruction, and shall not permit or cause any
damage, waste or injury to the building or other improvements on the Improved
Lease Premises.
8.
REFUSE
REMOVAL. Lessee shall provide for its own garbage, rubbish and
refuse disposal and recycling and agrees to keep the Improved Lease Premises
free and clear of debris. Lessee agrees to keep all rubbish, garbage
and refuse in covered containers within the Improved Lease Premises (or at such
other location identified by Lessor) and to have the same removed
regularly.
9.
COMPLIANCE. With
regard to its use of the Improved Lease Premises, Lessee shall, at its own
expense, comply with all laws, rules, orders, regulations, and requirements of
all Federal, State, and municipal governments, courts, departments, commissions,
boards, and officers having jurisdiction over the Improved Lease Premises, the
lawful orders, rules, and regulations of the Board of Fire Underwriters having
jurisdiction over the Improved Lease Premises, any mortgages to which the
Improved Lease Premises is subject, and any rules and regulations of
Lessor. Lessee shall have the right to contest by appropriate legal
proceedings, diligently pursued, without cost or expense to Lessor, the validity
of any governmental law, rule, order, regulation or
requirement. Lessee hereby indemnifies and holds Lessor harmless
against any and all liability, loss, or damage sustained by Lessor by reason of
such contest. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Lessee shall
promptly comply with any such law, rule, order, regulation or requirement if at
any time the Improved Lease Premises or any part thereof shall then be
immediately subject to forfeiture or Lessee shall be subject to criminal
liability for non-compliance therewith.
5
10.
TAXES. Lessee
shall pay as and when the same shall become due, but in any event not later than
fifteen (15) days after receipt of a xxxx therefor, all real property taxes,
assessments and other governmental charges assessed against the Improved Lease
Premises during the Term of this Lease. Lessee shall have the right
to contest by appropriate legal proceedings, diligently pursued, without cost or
expense to Lessor, the validity of any such tax, assessment or other
governmental charge. Lessee hereby indemnifies Lessor against any and
all liability, loss or damage sustained by Lessor by reason of such
contest. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Lessee shall promptly
pay any such tax, assessment or other government charge if at any time the
Improved Lease Premises or any part thereof shall then be immediately subject to
forfeiture or Lessee shall be subject to any criminal liability for nonpayment
thereof. Lessor agrees to promptly forward to Lessee all applicable
tax bills when received from Ground Lessor, and Lessee shall pay same in
accordance with the Ground Lease.
11.
SURRENDER
OF IMPROVED LEASE PREMISES. Lessee covenants that upon the
termination or expiration of this Lease or any renewal thereof, Lessee shall
surrender the Improved Lease Premises in good order and condition and shall
surrender all keys to the Improved Lease Premises to Lessor at the place then
fixed for the payment of rent. This covenant shall survive
termination of this Lease.
12.
RIGHT OF
ENTRY. Upon prior notice and in the presence of an authorized
representative of Lessee (whom Lessee agrees to provide upon such notice
received from Lessor), Lessor and/or its agents shall have the right to enter
upon and inspect the Improved Lease Premises at all reasonable times and to
exhibit the Improved Lease Premises to prospective purchasers and prospective
tenants (but in this case, only during the last eight (8) months of the term of
this Lease). Lessor shall be permitted to affix a "To Let" or "For
Sale" sign on the Improved Lease Premises during the last ninety (90) days of
the term of this Lease in such place as shall not interfere with the business
then being conducted at the Improved Lease Premises. Lessee
acknowledges that Ground Lessor shall have such rights with respect to entry and
signage as are set forth in the Ground Lease.
13.
SIGNS. Lessee
shall have the right to install and maintain on the Improved Lease Premises such
signs and advertising matter as Lessee may reasonably desire, subject to the
prior consent of Lessor and subject to the Ground Lease. Lessee shall
comply with any laws or ordinances with respect to such signs or advertising,
and shall obtain any necessary permits. Lessee agrees to maintain
such signs or advertising in good condition, and to repair any damage which may
be caused by erection, maintenance, repair or removal of such signs or
advertising.
14.
LIABILITY AND
OTHER INSURANCE. Lessee shall, during the entire term hereof,
keep in full force and effect policies of comprehensive liability and property
damage insurance and all insurances required by the Ground Lease, with respect
to the Improved Lease Premises and the business operated by Lessee in and upon
the Improved Lease Premises, in which the limits of bodily injury liability and
property damage liability shall be mutually agreed upon but shall be in no event
less than set forth in the Ground Lease. The policy (or policies)
shall name Lessor, and any persons, firms, or corporations designated by Lessor,
including the Ground Lessor and mortgagees, if any, and Lessee as insured and
shall contain a clause that the insurer will not cancel or modify the insurance
without first giving the named parties thirty (30) days prior written
notice. Copies of the policy or certificates of accord or insurance
shall be delivered to Lessor upon the Commencement Date or sooner as may be
required by Ground Lessor. If Lessee shall not comply with its
covenants made in this section, Lessor may, at its option, cause insurance as
aforesaid to be issued and in such event, Lessee agrees to pay the premium for
such insurance promptly upon Lessor's demand as additional rent. All
obligations contained in this Section 14 shall be subject to the requirements of
Lessor’s lender and/or mortgagee. In the event Lessor’s lender
requires minimum insurance coverages in excess of the limits described herein,
then Lessee expressly agrees to comply with all requirements of Lessor’s
lender. Failure to do so shall constitute an Event of Default under
this Lease. Lessor agrees to promptly forward to Lessee all
applicable insurance bills when received from Ground Lessor, and Lessee shall
pay same in accordance with the Ground Lease.
6
(a) Property and Personal Injury
Liability Insurance. At all times during the Term of this
Lease, Lessee shall maintain, at its sole cost, comprehensive broad-form general
public liability insurance against claims and liability for personal injury,
death, and property damage arising from the use, occupancy, disuse, or condition
of the Improved Lease Premises and Improvements. The insurance shall
be carried by insurance companies authorized to transact business in
Pennsylvania, selected by Lessee and approved by Lessor, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. In addition,
the following conditions shall be met:
(i)
The insurance provided pursuant to this Paragraph 14(a)(i) shall be in an
amount no less than One Million ($1,000,000.00) Dollars for property coverage,
and in an amount no less than One Million ($1,000,000.00) Dollars for one person
and Two Million ($2,000,000.00) Dollars for one accident for personal
injury.
(ii)
The insurance shall be maintained for the mutual benefit of Lessor and
Lessee, any succeeding owners of the fee title in the Leased Premises, any
successors and assigns of this Lease. The insurance policy or
policies shall name Lessor and Lessee as insureds and shall not be subject to
cancellation unless Lessor has received a minimum of thirty (30) days prior
written notice of the intention of the insurer to cancel the
coverage.
(iii) Construction Liability
Insurance. Lessee agrees either to obtain and maintain (to the
extent reasonably procurable) construction liability insurance at all times when
demolition, excavation, or construction work is in progress on the Improved
Lease Premises, or cause its contractors to maintain such construction liability
insurance, provided however that this obligation shall not apply to Lessee prior
to the Commencement Date. This insurance shall be carried by
insurance companies authorized to transact business in Pennsylvania, selected by
Lessee and shall be paid for by Lessee. The insurance shall have
limits of no less than One Million ($1,000,000.00) Dollars for property damage,
and One Million ($1,000,000.00) Dollars for one person and Two Million
($2,000,000.00) Dollars for one accident for personal injury. The
insurance shall be maintained for the mutual benefit of Lessor and Lessee, as
well as any succeeding owners of the fee title in the Improved Lease Premises,
any successors and assigns of this Lease, against all liability for injury or
damage to any person or property in any way arising out of demolition,
excavation, or construction work on the premises. The insurance
policy or policies shall name Lessor and Lessee as insureds and shall not be
subject to cancellation unless Lessor has received a minimum of thirty (30) days
prior written notice of the intention of the insurer to cancel the
coverage.
7
(iv) Certificates of
Insurance. Lessee shall furnish Lessor with certificates of
all insurance required by this Section 14. Lessee agrees that if it
does not keep this insurance in full force and effect, Lessor may notify Lessee
of this failure, and if Lessee does not deliver to Lessor certificates showing
all of the required insurance to be in full force and effect within ten (10)
days after this notice, Lessor may, at its option, take out and pay the premiums
on the insurance needed to fulfill Lessee’s obligations herein. On
demand from Lessor, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor the full amount of any
insurance premiums paid by Lessor, with interest at the rate of ten (10%)
percent per annum from the date of Lessor’s demand until reimbursement by
Lessee.
15.
WAIVER OF
SUBROGATION. Neither Lessee nor anyone claiming by, through,
under or on behalf of Lessee, shall have any claim, right of action, or right of
subrogation against Lessor for or based upon any loss or damage caused by any
casualty, including but not limited to fire or explosion, relating to the
Improved Lease Premises or property therein. Neither Lessor nor
anyone claiming by, through, under or on behalf of Lessor, shall have any claim,
right of action, or right of subrogation against Lessee for or based upon any
loss or damage caused by any casualty, including but not limited to fire or
explosion, relating to the Improved Lease Premises or property
therein. This release shall be applicable and in force and effect
only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such time as the releasor’s
policies shall contain a clause or endorsement to the effect that any such
release shall not adversely affect or impair or prejudice the right of the
releasor to recover thereunder. Lessor and Lessee each agree that
their policies will include such a clause or endorsement so long as the same is
obtainable and if not obtainable, shall so advise the other in writing and such
notice shall release both parties from the obligation to obtain such a clause or
endorsement.
16.
INDEMNITY. Lessee
hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend, at its own expense, Lessor
from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liability, judgments and
expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees, which may be
imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Lessor or Lessor's interest in
the Improved Lease Premises, by reason of any loss of life, personal injury or
claim of injury, or damage to property or claim of damage to property in or
about the Improved Lease Premises, howsoever caused, arising out of or relating
to the occupancy or use by Lessee, its employees, agents or invitees, of the
Improved Lease Premises, including without limitation the streets, alleys,
sidewalks or parking areas. Lessee shall indemnify Lessor for any
environmental liability to the extent such claims, damages, liability, judgments
and expenses are caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Lessee, its
employees, agents and/or invitees. In addition, Lessee shall
indemnify, defend and hold Lessor harmless from and against any and all expenses
incurred by Lessor arising out of or relating to Lessee’s failure to pay or
perform its obligations under this Lease.
8
17.
CASUALTY. In
the event that the Improved Lease Premises, or any portion thereof, are damaged
or destroyed by any cause whatsoever, Lessee shall commence such restoration as
soon as possible after such occurrence so as to permit such use and enjoyment of
the Improved Lease Premises, but in no event later than thirty (30) days
thereafter (but except in the case of an act of God not later than sixty (60)
days after the damage or destruction), and shall diligently pursue such repair
or restoration to completion, with a contractor approved by
Lessor. Only to the extent that the casualty or damage to the
Improved Lease Premises is caused directly by the gross negligence of Lessor,
Rent shall be equitably abated based on the area of the Improved Lease Premises
rendered untenantable, if any, during the period of such untenantability,
provided however that any other charges due under the Ground Lease (other than
Minimum Rent for which Lessor in such event shall remain obligated under the
Ground Lease) shall not be abated or reduced as a result of damage to the
Improved Lease Premises, and Lessee shall continue to be obligated
therefor.
18.
EMINENT
DOMAIN.
If the
entire Improved Lease Premises shall be taken by reason of condemnation or under
eminent domain proceedings, Lessee may terminate this Lease as of the date when
possession of the Improved Lease Premises is so taken by the condemning
entity. If a portion of the Improved Lease Premises, including
without limitation the building, site improvements, parking or access, shall be
taken under eminent domain or by reason of condemnation to such an extent that
the taking materially adversely affects Lessee’s use of the Improved Lease
Premises, Lessee shall have the option to terminate this Lease by written notice
to Lessor, provided that such notice is given to Lessor before the last to
expire of (i) the twenty (20) day period after the taking authority has taken
actual physical possession of any portion of the Improved Leased Premises or the
parking area or highway access appurtenant thereto or (ii) ten (10) days after
notice from Lessor to Lessee or Lessee to Lessor of the fact of such
taking. If this Lease is not so terminated, Lessee may at its sole
cost and expense, and with a contractor acceptable to Lessor, restore the
remaining portions of the Improved Lease Premises as Lessee deems necessary or
appropriate (subject to applicable law) without abatement of
rent. For purposes of this Section 18, (i) a partial taking shall be
deemed to include loss or impairment of access to and from the Improved Lease
Premises and (ii) grants or conveyances made in lieu or in anticipation of or
under threat of a taking or condemnation shall be deemed a
taking. Both parties shall pursue their own damage awards with
respect to any such taking, provided however that Lessee shall be entitled to,
and nothing herein shall prevent Lessee from seeking, an award for taking of or
damage to Lessee’s trade fixtures and any award for Lessee’s moving expenses, so
long as said awards do not diminish the award to which Lessor is
entitled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 18, in the event of any conflict between this Section 18 and Article
XIII of the Ground Lease, Lessee shall be bound by the provisions of Article
XIII of the Ground Lease.
19.
DEFAULT. The
occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an "Event
of Default" hereunder:
9
(a) Lessee
shall fail to pay in full when due, any installment of rent or any other sum
payable by Lessee hereunder, and such failure shall continue for a period of ten
(10) days;
(b) Lessee
shall fail to perform or observe (or cause or permit any such failure) any other
covenant, term, condition, agreement or obligation to be performed or observed
by Lessee under this Lease or under the Ground Lease, and such failure shall
continue for twenty (20) days after written notice thereof from Lessor to
Lessee; provided however that a failure as described in this Section 19(b) shall
not constitute a default if it is curable but cannot with reasonable diligence
be cured by Lessee within a period of twenty (20) days, so long as Lessee
promptly commences cure and proceeds to cure the failure with reasonable
diligence and in good faith.
(c) The
insolvency of Lessee, as evidenced by (i) the adjudication of Lessee as a
bankrupt or insolvent; (ii) the filing of a petition seeking reorganization of
Lessee or an arrangement with creditors, or any other petition seeking
protection of any bankruptcy or insolvency law; (iii) the filing of a petition
seeking the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator of Lessee or of all
or any part of Lessee's assets or property; (iv) an assignment by Lessee for the
benefit of creditors; or (v) the levy against any portion of Lessee's assets or
property by any sheriff or other officer.
(d) Lessor
acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding any other provisions contained in
this Lease Agreement, in the event (i) Lessee or its successors or assignees
shall become subject to a bankruptcy case pursuant to Title 11 of the U.S. Code
or similar proceeding during the term of this Lease or (ii) the depository
institution then operating the Improved Lease Premises is closed or is taken
over by any depository institution supervisory authority during the term of this
Lease, Lessor shall be bound by all applicable federal statutes and regulations,
including specifically 12 U.S.C. 1821(e)(4).
(e) Lessee
shall fail to open as an Embassy Bank at the Improved Lease Premises as required
by the Ground Lease.
20.
REMEDIES. Upon
the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lessor shall have the following rights
and remedies in addition to all other rights and remedies otherwise available at
law or in equity:
(a) If
Lessee shall at any time fail to pay any sum, charge, or imposition or perform
any other act on its part to be performed, then Lessor, after ten (10) days
written notice to Lessee and without waiving or releasing Lessee from any
obligation hereunder, may pay such charge or sum of money or make any other
payment or perform any other act on the Lessee's part to be made or performed,
and may enter upon the Improved Lease Premises for any such purpose, and take
all such action thereon as may be necessary therefor. All sums so
paid by Lessor and all costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in connection with
the performance of any such act, together with interest thereon at the rate of
ten percent (10%) per annum from the respective dates of Lessor's making of each
such payment or incurring of each such cost and expense, shall constitute
additional rent payable by Lessee under this Lease and Lessor shall have the
same remedies for the collection thereof as in the case of a failure to pay
rent.
10
(b) At
the option of Lessor and upon written notice to Lessee, this Lease, without
waiver of any other rights of Lessor herein, may be terminated and declared
void, without any right on the part of Lessee to save forfeiture by payment of
any sum due or by performance of any term, covenant, or condition broken and
Lessor may re-enter and possess the Improved Lease Premises without demand or
notice, with or without process of law, using such reasonable force as may be
necessary, without being deemed guilty of trespass, eviction, forcible entry,
conversion or becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned
thereby. In such event, Lessor shall be entitled to recover from
Lessee all damages incurred by Lessor by reason of Lessee's default including,
but not limited to, the cost of recovering possession of the Improved Lease
Premises; expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration
of the Improved Lease Premises; reasonable attorneys' fees; rent payment through
the balance of the term; or the difference between the rent to be paid by the
Lessee pursuant to this Lease and the rent charges collected by Lessor upon
reletting;
(c)
Lessor may retake possession of the Improved Lease Premises
without terminating the Lease, in which case this Lease shall continue in effect
whether or not Lessee shall have abandoned the Improved Lease
Premises. In such event, Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of
Lessor's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover
the rent and any other charges and adjustments as may become due
hereunder;
(d) At
Lessor's option, the entire rent and other charges which would have become due
during the balance of the lease term or renewal thereof shall be accelerated and
shall at once become due and payable as if by the terms of this Lease it were
all payable in advance, without presentment, demand, notice of nonpayment,
protest, notice of protest, or other notice, all of which are hereby expressly
waived by Lessee;
(e)
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, LESSEE HEREBY AUTHORIZES AND EMPOWERS ANY
PROTHONOTARY OR ANY ATTORNEY OF ANY COURT OF RECORD TO APPEAR FOR LESSEE, AS
WELL AS FOR ALL PERSONS CLAIMING BY, THROUGH OR UNDER LESSEE, AND WITH OR
WITHOUT DECLARATION FILED, UPON THE EXPIRATION OF A TEN (10) DAY PRIOR NOTICE
AND CURE PERIOD, TO CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST LESSEE AND IN FAVOR OF LESSOR, ITS
SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, FOR THE SUM DUE BY REASON OF SAID DEFAULT IN THE PAYMENT
OF RENT, INCLUDING UNPAID RENT FOR THE BALANCE OF THE TERM IF THE SAME SHALL

SUM DUE BY REASON OF ANY BREACH OF ANY OTHER COVENANT BY LESSEE HEREIN, TOGETHER
WITH INTEREST AND COSTS OF SUIT AND AN ATTORNEYS' COMMISSION OF FIVE (5%)
PERCENT (BUT NO LESS THAN $1,000.00) FOR COLLECTION. LESSOR MAY
THEREAFTER ISSUE A WRIT OR WRITS OF EXECUTION UPON THE JUDGMENT OBTAINED, AND
LESSEE HEREBY WAIVES AND RELEASES ALL ERRORS AND EXEMPTIONS WHICH LESSEE COULD
OTHERWISE RAISE AS DEFENSES TO SAID EXECUTION. SUCH AUTHORITY SHALL
NOT BE EXHAUSTED BY ONE EXERCISE THEREOF, BUT JUDGMENT MAY BE CONFESSED AS
AFORESAID FROM TIME TO TIME AS OFTEN AS ANY SAID RENT AND/OR OTHER SUMS SHALL BE
IN ARREARS. FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROCEEDING UNDER THIS SECTION, THIS
LEASE SHALL BE A SUFFICIENT WARRANT, AND A TRUE AND CORRECT COPY OF THIS LEASE
MAY BE FILED WITH THE COURT IN LIEU OF FILING AN ORIGINAL HEREOF;

LESSEE, AS WELL AS FOR ALL PERSONS CLAIMING BY, THROUGH OR UNDER LESSEE, AND TO
CONFESS JUDGMENT IN EJECTMENT AGAINST LESSEE AND IN FAVOR OF LESSOR, FOR
RECOVERY BY LESSOR OF POSSESSION OF THE IMPROVED LEASE PREMISES, FOR WHICH THIS
LEASE OR A TRUE COPY THEREOF SHALL BE SUFFICIENT WARRANT; THEREUPON, IF LESSOR
SO DESIRES, AN APPROPRIATE WRIT OF POSSESSION MAY ISSUE FORTHWITH WITHOUT LEAVE
OF COURT. IF FOR ANY REASON ANY SUCH ACTION SHALL BE TERMINATED AND
POSSESSION SHALL REMAIN IN OR BE RESTORED TO LESSEE, SUCH AUTHORITY SHALL NOT BE
EXHAUSTED BY ONE EXERCISE THEREOF, BUT JUDGMENT MAY BE CONFESSED AS AFORESAID AS
OFTEN AS THERE SHALL BE ANY DEFAULT WITH FAILURE TO CURE; AND
(g) LESSEE
HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, INCLUDING ANY CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT, TO
NOTICE OR OPPORTUNITY FOR A HEARING PRIOR TO JUDGMENT BEING ENTERED AGAINST IT
UNDER (e) OR (f) ABOVE AND PRIOR TO EXECUTION AGAINST ITS ASSETS UNDER (e) OR
(f) ABOVE. LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT UNDERSTANDS THE CONFESSION OF

REMEDIES. Lessor shall have and may exercise all remedies
available to Lessor hereunder and at law and in equity and all such remedies

instrument or act on the part of Lessee, subject however to the execution of a
customary subordination and non-disturbance agreement which Lessee agrees to
execute in the form required by Lessor’s lender. Lessee will, upon
written demand by Lessor, execute such instruments as may be required at any
time and from time to time to confirm such subordination. Although

after Lessor’s written request, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
Lessor party a written instrument in recordable form reasonably required by

in full force and effect and whether there have been any modifications,
supplements, side agreements or amendments and, if so, stating such
modifications, supplements, side agreements and amendments; (ii) the date to
which rent has been paid; (iii) the amount of any prepaid rent and any credit
due Lessee if any; (iv) the Commencement Date and whether any option to renew
the Term has been exercised and, if so, the day that Renewal Term expires; (v)
whether either party is in default in the performance of any covenant, agreement
or condition contained in this Lease and, if so, specifying each such default;
and (vi) such other matters as Ground Lessor or Ground Lessor’s mortgagee,
Lessor or Lessor’s mortgagee may reasonably require. Any such
instrument delivered pursuant to this section may be relied upon by Ground
Lessor, Lessor and any mortgagee or permitted assignee of any of them, and any
prospective purchaser of the Improved Lease Premises.
24.
MEMORANDUM OF LEASE AND
RECORDING. Lessor and Lessee shall execute a Memorandum of
Lease hereof, in form reasonably satisfactory to each of them, and Lessee may
record such Memorandum of Lease in the office of the Recorder of Deeds of and
for Northampton County, Pennsylvania.

the Ground Lease. Lessee shall not cause or permit any hazardous
substances to be utilized at, on or in the Improved Lease Premises except with
the prior written consent of Lessor and Ground Lessor and in strict compliance
with all applicable environmental laws, ordinances, rules and
regulations. Lessee shall not do or allow to be done any acts,

event that Lessor elects to sell the bank building on the Improved Lease
Premises and to assign Lessor’s rights as ground lessee under the Ground Lease

Lease and has not been sold, merged or acquired, and (ii) Lessee is not in
default of any of its obligations under this Lease.
(c) Lessee
shall remain solely responsible for payment of all sums due to Ground Lessor in
accordance with Section 3.2(d) of the Ground Lease.

SUBORDINATION,
NON-DISTURBANCE
AND ATTORNMENT
AGREEMENT
THIS
AGREEMENT, dated the ____ day of ________, 2009 between UNIVEST NATIONAL BANK
AND TRUST CO. (hereinafter called "Mortgagee"), and
EMBASSY BANK FOR THE LEHIGH VALLEY, a Pennsylvania financial institution
(hereinafter called "Tenant").
(a) Tenant
has entered into a certain lease (the "Lease") dated October
_____, 2009, with Polaris Lower Naz Development, LLC (hereinafter called "Landlord"), covering
premises located at Xxxxx 000 xxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx,
Xxxxxxxxxxx County, Pennsylvania, being a portion of PIN Number ______________
(the “Property”);
and
(b) Mortgagee
has made, or shall make, a mortgage loan (the "Mortgage") to the
Landlord, which Mortgage is, or shall be, filed against the above
premises.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the above and of the sum of ONE DOLLAR ($1.00) by
each party in hand paid to the other, the receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as
follows:
1.
The Lease is, and shall continue to be, subject and subordinate to
the Mortgage insofar as it affects the real property of which the demised
premises form a part, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations,
replacements and extensions of the Mortgage, to the full extent of the
liabilities secured thereby, whether now existing or hereafter
arising.
2.
Tenant agrees that it will attorn to and recognize Mortgagee or any purchaser at
a foreclosure sale under the Mortgage, any transferee who acquires the demised
premises by deed in lieu of foreclosure, and the successors and assigns of such
purchasers, as its Landlord for the unexpired balance (and any extensions, if
exercised) of the term of said Lease upon the same terms and conditions set
forth in the Lease.
28
3.
If it should become necessary to foreclose the Mortgage, so long as Tenant is
not in default under any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of the Lease
beyond the expiration of any applicable grace period, (a) Mortgagee thereunder
will not terminate the Lease nor join Tenant in summary or foreclosure
proceedings (unless required by law or rule of court), and (b) Tenant's
possession of the premises and all of Tenant's rights under the Lease shall
remain undisturbed by the holder of the Mortgage, so long as Tenant complies
with all terms, covenants and conditions contained therein.
4.
In the event that Mortgagee shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under such
Lease, Mortgagee shall not be
(a)
liable for or subject to any act or omission of any prior landlord
(including Landlord);
(b)
subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant has or could have against
any prior landlord (including Landlord);
(c)
bound by or subject to offset for any rent or additional rent which Tenant may
have paid in advance for more than the current month to any prior landlord
(including Landlord); or
(d)
bound by or subject to any amendment or modification of the lease made without
Mortgagee's prior written consent.
5.
This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed these presents the day and
year first above written.
