NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration to each of the parties hereto paid by the other, the receipt and sufficiency whereof are hereby acknowledged, it is hereby mutually covenanted and agreed by Xxxxxx and Xxxxx as follows:
1. Closing Extension.
(a) By the execution hereof, Xxxxx is exercising its election under Section 7(a) of the Agreement to extend the Closing to November 30, 2022, and Buyer is depositing with the Escrow Holder as of the date hereof $50,000 as the Extension Deposit, pursuant to Section 7(a) of the Agreement.
(b) On November 9, 2022, Seller shall give written notice to Adcomp under Section 7(a) of the Adcomp Purchase Agreement of its election to extend the closing of Seller’s purchase of the Property from Adcomp to November 30, 2022, and on the same day Seller shall deposit $50,000 with the Escrow Holder pursuant to Section 7(a) of the Adcomp Purchase Agreement.
2. Loan. On or before November 30, 2022, Buyer will loan to the Seller the difference between $17,500,000 and the amount to be provided by a third-party pursuant to the Financing Condition plus the Seller’s closing costs listed in the closing statement for the purchase of the Property by Seller from Adcomp (the “Loan”), and at the time the Loan is made the Seller will sign and deliver to Buyer the promissory note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Note”) and the proceeds of the Loan will be deposited with the Escrow Holder for the account of the Seller and the Subsidiary. That portion of the Loan proceeds equal to the cash required from Seller to close the purchase of the Property by Seller from Adcomp (excluding the loan made pursuant to the Financing Condition, and the deposits held by the Escrow Holder, the security deposit under the lease between Seller and Adcomp applied to the purchase of the Property by Seller from Adcomp) shall represent a capital contribution from the Seller to the Subsidiary and applied by the Subsidiary to the purchase of the Property under the Adcomp Purchase Agreement.
3. Adcomp Purchase Agreement Assignment. On or before November 30, 2022, and before the closing of the sale of the Property by Adcomp under the Adcomp Purchase Agreement, Seller will sign and deliver to Adcomp the assignment of the Adcomp Purchase Agreement from Seller to the Subsidiary in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Adcomp Assignment”). Pursuant to the Adcomp Assignment the Subsidiary will become the purchaser of the Property from Adcomp in accordance with the terms of the Adcomp Purchase Agreement.
4. The Transactions and Closing.
(a) The Seller intends that the Subsidiary shall close the purchase of the Property from Adcomp on November 30, 2022, under the Adcomp Purchase Agreement (the “Adcomp Closing”). If the Adcomp Closing does not occur and the Subsidiary does not acquire the Property, the provisions of Section 5(d) of the Agreement shall apply, and the obligations of the Parties under the Agreement and this Addendum shall terminate; provided, however, that if the Adcomp Closing does not occur because of a failure of the Financing Condition, then Section 4(c) of this Addendum shall apply.
(b) If Seller defaults in its obligations under this Addendum and Section 4(a) above does not apply, Buyer’s sole remedies shall be those stated in Section 13(a) of the Agreement.
2 |
(c) If Buyer defaults in its obligations under this Addendum or the Adcomp Closing fails to occur because the Financing Condition does not occur, and Section 4(a) above does not apply for any reason other than a failure of the Financing Condition to occur, Seller’s sole remedies shall be those stated in Section 13(b) of the Agreement and, for the sake of clarity, the Liquidated Damages shall be the sum of the Deposit and the Extension Deposit.
(d) The term “Closing” under the Agreement shall mean as of the date of this Addendum the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Addendum. On November 30, 2022, immediately following Seller’s purchase of the Property under the Adcomp Purchase Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall sign and deliver the assignment of all the member interest in the Subsidiary in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Assignment”), which provides for the transfer of all the member interest from Seller to Buyer and that the Assignment is made as payment in full and complete satisfaction of the Note and Loan. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Assignment and as a condition of Closing, the Subsidiary and PolarityTE MD, Inc., an Affiliate of Seller, shall sign and deliver the Lease Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D. The Lease Agreement attached to this Addendum shall replace in its entirety the form of the Lease Agreement attached as “Exhibit E” to the Agreement. Upon completion of the Closing under this Addendum, the Deposit and Extension Deposit held by the Escrow Holder under the Agreement shall be released to Buyer.
(e) The provisions of Section 7, 8, and 9 of the Agreement shall be void as of the time of Closing under Section 4(d), above.

6. Brokerage. Each party represents and warrants to the other party that no third party broker or finder has been engaged or consulted by such party or through such party’s actions is entitled to compensation as a consequence of this transaction except CBRE, Inc. representing Seller only.

For the sake of clarity, Basic Rent shall also be equal to $0.95 per rentable square foot comprising the Premises per month during the portion of the Interim Occupancy Period beginning on the Lease Date and continuing until the commencement of the Construction Period.

Preliminarily, the estimated total square feet in the Building is 154,212 square feet, and Landlord and Tenant shall mutually agree on the number of rentable square feet in the Premises and in the Building prior to the Commencement Date. In the event that during the Term of the Lease the Landlord leases 50% or more of the rentable square footage in the North Building, then on that date the Building square footage for purposes of calculating Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall be increased by the rentable square footage of the North Building. |

LEASE
This Lease Agreement (this “Lease”) is entered into as of __________________, 2022, between 1960 SOUTH 4250 WEST LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“Landlord”), and POLARITYTE MD, INC., a Nevada corporation (“Tenant”).

2. Xxxxx Xxxxx; Term. Subject to the terms of this Lease, Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant leases from Landlord, the Premises. Additionally, subject to the terms of this Lease and Landlord’s rules and regulations therefor, Tenant and its employees and invitees shall have a non-exclusive license to use, in common with others, any applicable driveways, loading dock areas, roadways, rail tracks and other similar improvements designated by Landlord from time to time as common areas for the common use and enjoyment of all tenants and occupants of the Project.
The term of this Lease shall be for the Lease Term, beginning at 12:00 midnight on the Commencement Date and expiring at 11:59 p.m. on the Expiration Date. Provided Tenant is open and operating in the Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease and is not then in default of any term, condition or covenant of the Lease beyond any applicable notice or cure period, Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term of this Lease for one (1) additional period of five (5) years as an Option Term (an “Option Term”) only by giving Landlord written notice at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the initial Term. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease, if Tenant fails to exercise the extension option by delivering such written notice, such extension option shall forever lapse. All of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements applicable to the initial Term shall be applicable to the Option Term, if any, with the adjustment to Rent as identified in the Basic Lease Information above. All references in this Lease to the “Term” or the “Lease Term” shall be deemed to mean the initial Term as extended by the Option Term, if any.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 1 |
3. Tender of Possession; Early Occupancy Period. Upon the Commencement Date, Tenant will accept the Premises in the manner set forth below, subject to Substantial Completion of the Landlord’s Work and the performance of Punchlist Items (as defined in Exhibit D attached hereto) that remain to be performed by Xxxxxxxx, if any. Upon the later of Tenant’s acceptance of the Premises and Landlord’s Substantial Completion of the Landlord’s Work, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord a letter substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto confirming (1) the Commencement Date and the expiration date of the initial Term, (2) that Tenant has accepted the Premises, and (3) that Landlord has performed all of its obligations with respect to the Premises (except for Punchlist Items specified in such letter); however, the failure of the parties to execute such letter shall not defer the Commencement Date or otherwise invalidate this Lease. During the Interim Occupancy Period, Tenant has the right to occupy and use the Premises for the Permitted Use in accordance with all of the terms of this Lease.
4. Rent.
(a) | Payment. Beginning on the Lease Date, Tenant shall timely pay to Landlord Rent, without notice, demand, deduction or set off (except as otherwise expressly provided herein), by wire transfer to a bank account designated by Landlord in writing from time to time or as otherwise specified by Landlord and shall be accompanied by all applicable state and local sales or use taxes. The obligations of Tenant to pay Basic Rent, Abated Rent, and other sums to Landlord and the obligations of Landlord under this Lease are independent obligations. Basic Rent and Abated Rent shall be payable monthly in advance. The first monthly installment of Basic Rent shall be payable on the Lease Date, Basic Rent and Abated Rent, as applicable, shall be payable on the first day of each subsequent Lease Month. The monthly Basic Rent for any partial month at the beginning of the Term shall equal the product of 1/365 of the annual Basic Rent in effect during the partial month and the number of days in the partial month, and shall be due on the Commencement Date. Payments of Basic Rent for any fractional calendar month at the end of the Term shall be similarly prorated. Tenant shall pay Additional Rent at the same time and in the same manner as Basic Rent and Abated Rent. |
(b) | Operating Costs. |
(1) Tenant shall pay to Landlord beginning on the Lease Date Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the annual Operating Costs (defined below). Landlord may make a good faith estimate of Xxxxxx’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs to be due by Tenant for any calendar year or part thereof during the Term. During each calendar year or partial calendar year of the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in advance concurrently with each monthly installment of Basic Rent, an amount equal to the estimated Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs for such calendar year or part thereof divided by the number of months therein. From time to time, Landlord may estimate and re-estimate the amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs to be due by Xxxxxx and deliver a copy of the estimate or re-estimate to Tenant. Thereafter, the monthly installments of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs payable by Tenant shall be appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations so that, by the end of the calendar year in question, Tenant shall have paid all of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs as estimated by Landlord. Any amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment as herein provided when actual Operating Costs are available for each calendar year.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 2 |
(2) The term “Operating Costs” means all expenses and disbursements (subject to the limitations set forth below) that Landlord incurs in connection with the ownership, operation, and maintenance of the Project, determined in accordance with sound accounting principles consistently applied, including the following costs: (A) wages and salaries of all on-site employees at or below the grade of senior building manager engaged in the operation, maintenance or security of the Project (together with Landlord’s reasonable allocation of expenses of off-site employees at or below the grade of senior building manager who perform a portion of their services in connection with the operation, maintenance or security of the Project), including taxes, insurance and benefits relating thereto; (B) all supplies and materials used in the operation, maintenance, repair, replacement, and security of the Project; (C) cost of all utilities (including fuel, gas, electricity, water, sewer, and other services) for the common areas and other non-tenant areas of the Project (e.g., mechanical, electrical and telecommunications rooms) as reasonably determined by Landlord; (D) repairs, replacements, and general maintenance of the Project including paving and parking areas, roads, roof repairs (Landlord is responsible for replacement of the roof as provided in Section 7), alleys and driveways, trash collection, sweeping and removal of trash for the common areas, mowing and snow removal, landscaping and exterior painting, the cost of maintaining utility lines, fire sprinklers and fire protection systems, exterior lighting, and mechanical and plumbing systems serving the Project and, to the extent the following items serve more than one tenant in the Project, Generator (defined below), dock doors, drains and sump pumps; (E) fair market rental and other costs with respect to the management office for the Project; (F) service, maintenance and management contracts with independent contractors for the operation, maintenance, management, repair, replacement, and security of the Project (including alarm service, window cleaning, and elevator maintenance); (G) costs of professional services rendered for the general benefit of the Project; (H) environmental insurance or environmental management fees; (I) the cost of any insurance deductibles for insurance required to be maintained by Landlord; and (J) costs for improvements made to the Project which, although capital in nature, are expected to reduce the normal operating costs (including all utility costs) of the Project, as amortized using a commercially reasonable interest rate over the time period reasonably estimated by Landlord to recover the costs thereof taking into consideration the anticipated cost savings, as determined by Landlord using its good faith, commercially reasonable judgment, as well as capital improvements made in order to comply with any Law hereafter promulgated by any governmental authority or any new interpretations of any Law hereafter rendered with respect to any existing Law, as amortized using a commercially reasonable interest rate over the useful economic life of such improvements as determined by Landlord in its reasonable discretion.
Operating Costs shall not include costs for (i) capital improvements made to the Project, other than capital improvements described in Section 4(b)(2)(J) and except for items which are generally considered maintenance and repair items, such as painting of common areas, replacement of carpet in elevator lobbies (if any), and the like; (ii) repair, replacements and general maintenance paid by proceeds of insurance or by Tenant or other third parties; (iii) interest, amortization or other payments on loans to Landlord or rentals payable under any ground or underlying lease, if any; (iv) depreciation; (v) costs relating to the leasing of the Building, including brokers’ commissions, accounting and legal fees (including attorneys’ fees for disputes with tenants); (vi) legal expenses for services, other than those that benefit the Project tenants generally (e.g., tax disputes); (vii) Taxes; (viii) Insurance Costs; (ix) renovating or otherwise improving space for occupants of the Project or vacant space in the Project; (x) payments to affiliates of Landlord but only to the extent that they exceed market charges; (xi) Landlord’s general corporate overhead and administrative expenses; and (xii) fines, costs, late charges, liquidated damages, penalties, tax penalties, or related interest charges imposed on Landlord or Landlord’s property manager, provided the same are imposed on Landlord or Xxxxxxxx’s property manager except to the extent that such is the fault of Tenant.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 3 |
(3) Tenant shall also pay Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Taxes for each year and partial year beginning on the Lease Date. Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes in the same manner as provided above for Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs. “Taxes” means taxes, assessments, and governmental charges or fees whether federal, state, county or municipal, and whether they be by taxing districts or authorities presently taxing or by others, subsequently created or otherwise, and any other taxes and assessments (including non- governmental assessments for common charges under a restrictive covenant or other private agreement that are not treated as part of Operating Costs) now or hereafter attributable to the Project (or its operation), excluding, however, penalties and interest thereon and federal and state taxes on income (if the present method of taxation changes so that in lieu of or in addition to the whole or any part of any Taxes, there is levied on Landlord a capital tax directly on the rents received therefrom or a franchise tax, assessment, or charge based, in whole or in part, upon such rents for the Project, then all such taxes, assessments, or charges, or the part thereof so based, shall be deemed to be included within the term “Taxes” for purposes hereof). Taxes shall include the costs of consultants retained in an effort to lower taxes and all costs incurred in disputing any taxes or in seeking to lower the tax valuation of the Project. For property tax purposes, Xxxxxx waives all rights to protest or appeal the appraised value of the Premises, as well as the Project, and all rights to receive notices of reappraisement.
(4) By April 1 of each calendar year, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of Operating Costs and Taxes for the previous year (the “Operating Costs and Tax Statement”). If Tenant’s estimated payments of Operating Costs or Taxes under this Section for the year covered by the Operating Costs and Tax Statement exceed Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such items as indicated in the Operating Costs and Tax Statement, then Landlord shall promptly credit or reimburse Tenant for such excess; likewise, if Xxxxxx’s estimated payments of Operating Costs or Taxes under this Section for such year are less than Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such items as indicated in the Operating Costs and Tax Statement, then Tenant shall promptly pay Landlord such deficiency. Upon request by Xxxxxx, Landlord shall provide commercially reasonable backup for such charges and evidence of payment of the underlying invoices summarized in the Operating Costs and Tax Statement. Tenant shall have the right to audit the Operating Costs and Tax Statement by providing Landlord with written notice (the “Review Notice”) that Tenant intends to review Landlord’s records of the Operating Costs and Taxes for the year to which the statement applies. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Review Notice, Landlord shall make electronic copies of all pertinent records that are reasonably necessary for Tenant’s review available for inspection. If Tenant provides Landlord with a Review Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith to resolve any issues pertaining to the Operating Costs and Tax Statement. If, after negotiating in good faith, Landlord and Tenant are unable to resolve any such issues, then upon fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice, Tenant or Tenant’s expense accounting consultant shall have the right to audit Landlord’s books and records relating to the prior two (2) year’s Operating Costs and Taxes at a mutually convenient time at Landlord’s local office, if one exists, or if none exists, at Xxxxxxxx’s main offices. If the audit discloses Tenant’s total payments of the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs and Taxes for the year to which the Operating Costs and Tax Statement applies are more than Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs and Taxes for such year (and Landlord cannot demonstrate that the audit is inaccurate), then Landlord shall retain such excess and credit it against Tenant’s next monthly Rent payments or if such overpayment occurs at the end of the Term, then Landlord shall refund such amount to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the end of the Term. If such audit reveals that Xxxxxxxx has overcharged Tenant for Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs and Taxes by more than five percent (5%) or more, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable cost incurred by Xxxxxx in completing such audit.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 4 |
5. Delinquent Payment; Handling Charges. All past due payments required of Tenant hereunder shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the lesser of eighteen percent per annum or the maximum lawful rate of interest (such lesser amount is referred to herein as the “Default Rate”); additionally, Landlord, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, may charge Tenant a fee equal to the greater of (a) $50.00 or (b) five percent of the delinquent payment to reimburse Landlord for its cost and inconvenience incurred as a consequence of Xxxxxx’s delinquency. In no event, however, shall the charges permitted under this Section or elsewhere in this Lease, to the extent they are considered to be interest under applicable Law, exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the late fee referenced above shall not be charged with respect to the first occurrence (but not any subsequent occurrence) during any 12-month period that Tenant fails to make payment when due, until five business days after Xxxxxxxx delivers written notice of such delinquency to Tenant.
6. Security Deposit. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Security Deposit, which shall be held by Landlord to secure Tenant’s performance of its obligations under this Lease. The Security Deposit is not an advance payment of Rent or a measure or limit of Landlord’s damages upon an Event of Default (as defined herein). Landlord may, from time to time following an Event of Default and without prejudice to any other remedy, use all or a part of the Security Deposit to perform any obligation Tenant fails to perform hereunder. Following any such application of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the amount so applied in order to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Subject to the requirements of, and conditions imposed by, Laws applicable to security deposits under commercial leases, Landlord shall, within the time required by applicable Law, return to Tenant the portion of the Security Deposit remaining after deducting all damages, charges and other amounts permitted by Law. Landlord and Tenant agree that such deductions shall include, without limitation, all damages and losses that Landlord has suffered or that Landlord reasonably estimates that it will suffer as a result of any breach of this Lease by Xxxxxx. The Security Deposit may be commingled with other funds, and no interest shall be paid thereon. If Landlord transfers its interest in the Premises, Landlord shall assign the Security Deposit to the transferee and, upon such transfer and the delivery to Tenant of an acknowledgement of the transferee’s responsibility for the Security Deposit as provided by Law, Landlord thereafter shall have no further liability for the return of the Security Deposit.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 5 |
7. Landlord’s Maintenance Obligations. This Lease is intended to be a net lease; accordingly, Landlord’s maintenance obligations are limited to the replacement of the Building’s Structure; Landlord shall not be responsible for (1) any such work until Tenant notifies Landlord of the need therefor in writing or (2) alterations to the Building’s Structure required by applicable law because of Tenant’s use of the Premises (which alterations shall be Tenant’s responsibility). The Building’s Structure does not include skylights, windows, glass or plate glass, doors or overhead doors, special fronts, or office entries, dock bumpers, dock plates or levelers, loading areas and docks, and loading dock equipment, all of which shall be maintained by Tenant. Landlord’s liability for any defects, repairs, replacement or maintenance for which Landlord is specifically responsible for under this Lease shall be limited to the cost of performing the work. Additionally, Landlord shall maintain the parking areas, and other common areas of the Building, including driveways, alleys, landscape and grounds surrounding the Premises and utility lines in a good condition, consistent with the operation of a general office, manufacturing, and warehouse facility, including the exterior of the Building (including painting), landscaping sprinkler systems, and any items normally associated with the foregoing. All costs in performing the work described in the foregoing sentence shall be included in Operating Costs. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord in writing of any work required to be performed under this Section 7, and Landlord shall not be responsible for performing such work until Xxxxxx delivers to Landlord such notice. Additionally, in no event shall Landlord be responsible for alterations to the Building’s Structure required by applicable Law because of Tenant’s use of the Premises (which alterations shall be made by Tenant at its sole cost and expense). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine the appropriate remedial action required of it to satisfy its maintenance obligations hereunder (e.g., Landlord shall, in its sole discretion, determine whether, and to the extent, repairs or replacements are the appropriate remedial action).
Landlord acknowledges that the emergency generator that is currently located on the Project for providing electricity to the Building (the “Generator”) is Tenant’s property and that Tenant may remove and dispose of the Generator as it sees fit at termination of this Lease, provided Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, repair any damage to the Project caused by Tenant’s removal of the Generator. Landlord shall provide to Tenant any keys or codes that will enable Tenant to have access to the fenced area where the Generator is located at all times during the Term of this Lease. Tenant agrees that during the Term of this Lease the Generator may be used to service the entire Building, and in consideration therefor the Landlord shall maintain the Generator in good working condition at all times (including keeping it fueled at not less than 50% fuel capacity at all times). All such costs of maintaining the Generator shall be Operating Costs and Tenant shall pay its Proportionate Share of such costs pursuant to Section 4(b), above. Tenant shall insure the Generator against loss or destruction and, in the event of loss or destruction of the Generator, Tenant shall be solely responsible for providing a replacement Generator, which shall be the property of Tenant that it may remove on termination of this Lease, subject to the repair obligation set forth above, and Landlord shall provide all commercially reasonable assistance and cooperation that may be required for the installation of the replacement Generator, including modification, alteration, or reconfiguration of any wall, conduit, or wiring of the Building required to connect the replacement Generator to the automatic transfer switch for transferring the Building power source to the replacement Generator (the “ATS”), all at Landlord’s sole cost as maintenance of the Building’s Structure and not as an Operating Cost. Similarly, if the Generator ceases to operate due to any cause that is not covered by insurance, Tenant shall be solely responsible for providing a replacement Generator, which shall be the property of Tenant that it may remove on termination of this Lease, subject to the repair obligation set forth above, and Landlord shall provide all commercially reasonable assistance and cooperation that may be required for the installation of the replacement Generator, including modification, alteration, or reconfiguration of any wall, conduit, or wiring of the Building required to connect the replacement Generator to the ATS, all at Landlord’s sole cost as maintenance of the Building’s Structure and not as an Operating Cost. The Landlord’s Work shall include the installation of walls and access around the ATS so that the current location of the ATS becomes a common area accessible by Tenant at all times, and the common area for the ATS shall not be moved or relocated by Landlord without Tenant’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 6 |
8. Improvements; Alterations; Tenant’s Maintenance and Repair Obligations.
(a) | Improvements; Alterations. Tenant improvements to the Premises shall be installed in accordance with the Work Letter attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit D, and in accordance with plans and specifications which have been previously submitted to and approved in writing by Landlord, which approval shall be governed by the provisions set forth in this Section 8(a). No alterations or physical additions in or to the Premises may be made without Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; however, Landlord may withhold its consent to any alteration or addition that would adversely affect (in the reasonable discretion of Landlord) (1) the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems (including the Building’s restrooms or mechanical rooms), (2) the exterior appearance of the Building, (3) the appearance of the Building’s common areas, or (4) the provision of services to other Building occupants. The foregoing notwithstanding, no consent of Landlord is required for alterations or modifications to, or the replacement of, any clean room located on the Premises or the Building’s Systems exclusively supporting the operation of any such clean room that are reasonably required as determined by Tenant to use and operate clean rooms for the Permitted Uses in compliance with any applicable Law including, but not by way of limitation, any law, rule, or regulation of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration; provided, however, that with respect to any such alteration or modification to or replacement of any Building’s Systems that do not exclusively support the operation of any such clean rooms, Landlord’s prior written consent shall be required, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant shall not paint or install lighting or decorations, signs, window or door lettering, or advertising media of any type visible from the exterior of the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All alterations, additions, and improvements shall be constructed, maintained, and used by Tenant, at its risk and expense, in accordance with all Laws; Landlord’s consent to or approval of any alterations, additions or improvements (or the plans therefor) shall not constitute a representation or warranty by Landlord, nor Landlord’s acceptance, that the same comply with sound architectural and/or engineering practices or with all applicable Laws, and Tenant shall be solely responsible for ensuring all such compliance. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 7 |
(b) | Repairs; Maintenance. Tenant shall maintain the Premises, including the loading areas and dock, and loading dock equipment in connection with the Premises, in a clean, safe, and operable condition, and shall not permit or allow to remain any waste or damage to any portion of the Premises. Additionally, Tenant, at its sole expense, shall repair, replace and maintain in good condition and in accordance with all Laws and the equipment manufacturer’s suggested service programs, all portions of the Premises, Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment and all areas, improvements and systems exclusively serving the Premises including loading docks, sump pumps, dock xxxxx, dock equipment and loading areas, dock doors, dock seals, overhead doors, “levellors” and similar leveling equipment, plumbing, water, fire sprinkler system, and sewer lines up to points of common connection, entries, doors, ceilings, windows, interior walls, and the interior side of demising walls, and heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems (including any evaporative units), and other building and mechanical systems serving the Premises. Such repair and replacements include capital expenditures and repairs whose benefit may extend beyond the Term. To the extent not covered by Xxxxxxxx’s insurance, Tenant shall repair or replace, subject to Landlord’s direction and supervision, any damage to the Building caused by a Tenant Party. If Tenant fails to commence repairs or replacements within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such damage or thereafter fails to diligently prosecute such repair or replacement work to completion, then Landlord may make the same at Tenant’s cost, provided that Landlord may commence such work at Tenant’s cost after affording Tenant a reasonable opportunity to commence such work in the event of an emergency (imminent threat to persons or property). If any such damage occurs outside of the Premises, then, to the extent not covered by Landlord’s insurance, Landlord may elect to repair such damage at Tenant’s expense, rather than having Tenant repair such damage. The cost of all maintenance, repair or replacement work performed by Landlord under Section 8 shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within 30 days after Landlord has invoiced Tenant therefor. |
(c) | Performance of Work. All work described in Section 8 shall be performed only by Landlord or by contractors and subcontractors approved in writing by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant shall cause all contractors and subcontractors to procure and maintain insurance coverage naming Landlord, Landlord’s property management company and Landlord’s asset management company as additional insureds against such risks, in such amounts, and with such companies as Landlord may reasonably require. Tenant shall provide Landlord with the identities, mailing addresses and telephone numbers of all persons performing work or supplying materials prior to beginning such construction and Landlord may post on and about the Premises notices of non-responsibility pursuant to applicable Laws. All such work shall be performed in accordance with all Laws and in a good and workmanlike manner so as not to damage the Building (including the Premises, the Building’s Structure and the Building’s Systems). All such work which may affect the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems must be approved by the Building’s engineer of record, at Xxxxxx’s expense and, at Landlord’s election, must be performed by Xxxxxxxx’s usual contractor for such work. All work affecting the roof of the Building must be performed by Landlord’s roofing contractor, and no such work will be permitted if it would void or reduce the warranty on the roof. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 8 |
(d) | Xxxxxxxx’s Liens. All work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by or at the request of a Tenant Party shall be deemed authorized and ordered by Tenant only, and Tenant shall not permit any mechanic’s liens to be filed against the Premises or the Project in connection therewith. Upon completion of any such work, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord final lien waivers from all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen who performed such work. If such a lien is filed, then Tenant shall, within fifteen (15) business days after Landlord has delivered notice of the filing thereof to Tenant (or such earlier time period as may be necessary to prevent the forfeiture of the Premises, the Project or any interest of Landlord therein or the imposition of a civil or criminal fine with respect thereto), either (1) pay the amount of the lien and cause the lien to be released of record, or (2) diligently contest such lien and deliver to Landlord a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. If Tenant fails to timely take either such action, then Landlord may pay the lien claim, and any amounts so paid, including expenses and interest, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after Landlord has invoiced Tenant therefor. Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxx acknowledge and agree that their relationship is and shall be solely that of “landlord-tenant” (thereby excluding a relationship of “owner-contractor,” “owner-agent” or other similar relationships). Accordingly, all materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics, laborers and any other persons now or hereafter contracting with Tenant, any contractor or subcontractor of Tenant or any other Tenant Party for the furnishing of any labor, services, materials, supplies or equipment with respect to any portion of the Premises, at any time from the date hereof until the end of the Term, are hereby charged with notice that they look exclusively to Tenant to obtain payment for same. Nothing herein shall be deemed a consent by Landlord to any liens being placed upon the Premises, the Project or Xxxxxxxx’s interest therein due to any work performed by or for Tenant or deemed to give any contractor or subcontractor or materialman any right or interest in any funds held by Landlord to reimburse Tenant for any portion of the cost of such work. Tenant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and its agents and representatives from and against all claims, demands, causes of action, suits, judgments, damages and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in any way arising from or relating to the failure by any Tenant Party to pay for any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by or at the request of a Tenant Party. This indemnity provision shall survive termination or expiration of this Lease. |
(e) | Janitorial Services. Tenant, at its sole expense, shall provide its own janitorial services to the Premises and shall maintain the Premises in a clean and safe condition. Tenant shall store all trash and garbage within the area and in receptacles designated from time to time by Landlord and shall, at its sole expense, arrange for the regular pickup of such trash and garbage at times, and pursuant to reasonable regulations, established by Landlord from time to time. If Tenant fails, after notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure, to provide janitorial services to the Premises or trash removal services in compliance with the foregoing, Landlord, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to it, may provide such services, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost thereof, plus an administrative fee equal to 15% of such cost, within thirty (30) days after Landlord delivers to Tenant an invoice therefor. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 9 |
9. Utilities. Tenant shall pay for all water, gas, electricity, heat, telephone, sewer, sprinkler charges and other utilities and services used at the Premises, together with any taxes, penalties, surcharges, connection charges, maintenance charges, and the like pertaining to Xxxxxx’s use of the Premises. Landlord shall, as part of Landlord’s Work, separately meter the Premises for each utility service or, in the event that it is not commercially reasonable to separately meter a utility service, Landlord shall submeter the Premises for such utility service. Tenant, at its expense, shall obtain all utility services for the Premises, including making all applications therefor, obtaining meters and other related equipment, and paying all deposits and connection charges. Landlord shall not be liable for any interruption or failure of utility service to the Premises, and such interruption or failure of utility service shall not be a constructive eviction of Tenant, constitute a breach of any implied warranty, or, except as provided in the next sentence, entitle Tenant to any abatement of Xxxxxx’s obligations hereunder. If, however, Xxxxxx is prevented from using the Premises for more than three (3) consecutive business days because of the unavailability of any such service and such unavailability was caused by Landlord and restoration of such service is within the reasonable control of Landlord, then Tenant shall, as its exclusive remedy be entitled to an abatement of Rent for each consecutive day (after such three consecutive business day period) that Tenant is so prevented from using the Premises. Rent shall not xxxxx by reason of the interruption, insufficiency, unavailability or discontinuance of such service if such unavailability or discontinuance was not caused by Landlord and restoration of such service is not within the reasonable control of Landlord.
10. Use. Tenant shall continuously occupy and use the Premises only for the Permitted Use and shall comply with all Laws relating to this Lease and/or the use, condition, access to, and occupancy of the Premises and will not commit waste, overload the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems or subject the Premises to use that would damage the Premises. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, as between Landlord and Tenant, (a) Tenant shall bear the risk of complying with Title III of the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, any state laws governing handicapped access or architectural barriers, and all rules, regulations, and guidelines promulgated under such laws, as amended from time to time (the “Disabilities Acts”) in the Premises, and (b) Landlord shall bear the risk of complying with the Disabilities Acts in the common areas of the Building, other than compliance that is necessitated by the use of the Premises for other than the Permitted Use or as a result of any alterations or additions, including any initial tenant improvement work, made by or on behalf of a Tenant Party (which risk and responsibility shall be borne by Tenant). The Premises shall not be used for any use which is disreputable, creates extraordinary fire hazards, or results in an increased rate of insurance on the Building or its contents, or for the storage of any Hazardous Materials (except as provided in Section 26 hereto), provided, however, that such matters arising in connection with Xxxxxx’s Permitted Use of the Premises are expressly permitted regardless of whether such matters are considered disreputable, create extraordinary fire hazards, or result in an increased rate of insurance on the Building or its contents. Outside storage, including storage of trucks or other vehicles, is prohibited without Landlord’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If, because of a Tenant Party’s acts or because Tenant vacates the Premises, the rate of insurance on the Building or its contents increases, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such increase on demand. Tenant shall conduct its business and control each other Tenant Party so as not to create any nuisance or unreasonably interfere with other tenants or Landlord in its management of the Building, provided, however, that nuisances and interference arising in connection with Xxxxxx’s Permitted Use of the Premises are expressly permitted regardless of whether such nuisances and interference interfere in any way with other tenants or persons having business with them. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any nuisances or interference arising in connection with Tenant’s Permitted Use of the Premises, Tenant shall, upon Landlord’s reasonable request, use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate such nuisances or interference, provided that Tenant shall have no obligation to effect any mitigation efforts that would disrupt or otherwise disturb Tenant’s operation of its business on the Premises for the Permitted Use.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 10 |
11. Assignment and Subletting.
(a) | Transfers. Except as provided in Section 11(h), Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, (1) assign, transfer, or encumber this Lease or any estate or interest herein, whether directly or by operation of law, (2) permit any other entity to become Tenant hereunder by merger, consolidation, or other reorganization, (3) if Tenant is an entity other than a corporation whose stock is publicly traded, permit the transfer of an ownership interest in Tenant so as to result in a change in the current control of Tenant, (4) sublet any portion of the Premises, (5) grant any license, concession, or other right of occupancy of any portion of the Premises, or (6) permit the use of the Premises by any parties other than Tenant (any of the events listed in Section 11(h)(1) through 11(h)(3) being a “Transfer”). |
(b) | Consent Standards. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any assignment or subletting of the Premises, provided that the proposed transferee (1) is creditworthy (except with respect to a sublease), (2) will use the Premises for the Permitted Use and will not use the Premises in any manner that would conflict with any exclusive use agreement or other similar agreement entered into by Landlord with any other tenant of the Building effective as of the date hereof, and/or (3) is in compliance with the regulations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) of the Department of the Treasury (including those named on OFAC’s Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List) and any statute, executive order (including the September 24, 2001, Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit or Support Terrorism), or other governmental action relating thereto; otherwise, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole discretion. Additionally, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole discretion to any proposed Transfer if any Event of Default by Tenant then exists. |
(c) | Request for Consent. If Tenant requests Xxxxxxxx’s consent to a Transfer, then, at least 15 business days prior to the effective date of the proposed Transfer, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a written description of all terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, copies of the proposed documentation, and the following information about the proposed transferee: name and address of the proposed transferee and any entities and persons who own, control or direct the proposed transferee; reasonably satisfactory information about its business and business history; its proposed use of the Premises; banking, financial, and other credit information; and general references sufficient to enable Landlord to determine the proposed transferee’s creditworthiness and character. Concurrently with Xxxxxx’s notice of any request for consent to a Transfer, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a fee of $500 to defray Landlord’s expenses in reviewing such request, and Tenant shall also reimburse Landlord immediately upon request for its reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with considering any request for consent to a Transfer. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 11 |
(d) | Conditions to Consent. If Landlord consents to a proposed Transfer, then the proposed transferee shall deliver to Landlord a written agreement whereby it expressly assumes Tenant’s obligations hereunder; however, any transferee of less than all of the space in the Premises shall be liable only for obligations under this Lease that are properly allocable to the space subject to the Transfer for the period of the Transfer. No Transfer shall release Tenant from its obligations under this Lease, but rather Tenant and its transferee shall be jointly and severally liable therefor. Xxxxxxxx’s consent to any Transfer shall not waive Landlord’s rights as to any subsequent Transfers. If an Event of Default occurs while the Premises or any part thereof are subject to a Transfer, then Landlord, in addition to its other remedies, may collect directly from such transferee all rents becoming due to Tenant and apply such rents against Rent. Tenant authorizes its transferees to make payments of rent directly to Landlord upon receipt of notice from Landlord to do so following the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder. Tenant shall pay for the cost of any demising walls or other improvements necessitated by a proposed subletting or assignment. |
(e) | Attornment by Subtenants. Each sublease by Tenant hereunder shall be subject and subordinate to this Lease and to the matters to which this Lease is or shall be subordinate, and each subtenant by entering into a sublease is deemed to have agreed that in the event of termination, re-entry or dispossession by Landlord under this Lease, Landlord may, at its option, take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublandlord, under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that Landlord shall not be (1) liable for any previous act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (2) subject to any counterclaim, offset or defense that such subtenant might have against Tenant, (3) bound by any previous modification of such sublease not approved by Landlord in writing or by any rent or additional rent or advance rent which such subtenant might have paid for more than the current month to Tenant, and all such rent shall remain due and owing, notwithstanding such advance payment, (4) bound by any security or advance rental deposit made by such subtenant which is not delivered or paid over to Landlord and with respect to which such subtenant shall look solely to Tenant for refund or reimbursement, or (5) obligated to perform any work in the subleased space or to prepare it for occupancy, and in connection with such attornment, the subtenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord any instruments Landlord may reasonably request to evidence and confirm such attornment. Each subtenant or licensee of Tenant shall be deemed, automatically upon and as a condition of its occupying or using the Premises or any part thereof, to have agreed to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth in this Section. The provisions of this Section 11(e) shall be self-operative, and no further instrument shall be required to give effect to this provision. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 12 |
(f) | Cancellation. Landlord may, within 30 days after submission of Xxxxxx’s written request for Xxxxxxxx’s consent to an assignment, cancel this Lease as to the portion of the Premises proposed to be assigned as of the date the proposed Transfer is to be effective. If Landlord cancels this Lease as to any portion of the Premises, then this Lease shall cease for such portion of the Premises and Tenant shall pay to Landlord all Rent accrued through the cancellation date relating to the portion of the Premises covered by the proposed Transfer. Thereafter, Landlord may lease such portion of the Premises to the prospective assignee (or to any other person) without liability to Tenant. |
(g) | Intentionally Deleted. |
(h) | Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding Section 11(a), Tenant may Transfer all or part of its interest in this Lease or all or part of the Premises (a “Permitted Transfer”) to the following types of entities (a “Permitted Transferee”) without the written consent of Landlord: |
(1) an Affiliate of Tenant;
(2) any corporation, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, limited liability company or other business entity in which or with which Tenant, or its corporate successors or assigns, is merged or consolidated, in accordance with applicable statutory provisions governing merger and consolidation of business entities, so long as (A) Tenant’s obligations hereunder are assumed by the entity surviving such merger or created by such consolidation; and (B) the Tangible Net Worth of the surviving or created entity is not less than the Tangible Net Worth of Tenant as of the date hereof; or
(3) any corporation, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, limited liability company or other business entity acquiring all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets if such entity’s Tangible Net Worth after such acquisition is not less than the Tangible Net Worth of Tenant as of the date hereof.
Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any such Permitted Transfer. Tenant shall remain liable for the performance of all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder, or if Tenant no longer exists because of a merger, consolidation, or acquisition, the surviving or acquiring entity shall expressly assume in writing the obligations of Tenant hereunder. Additionally, the Permitted Transferee shall comply with all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, including the Permitted Use, and the use of the Premises by the Permitted Transferee may not violate any other agreements affecting the Premises, the Building, Landlord or other tenants of the Building. No later than 30 days after the effective date of any Permitted Transfer, Xxxxxx agrees to furnish Landlord with (A) copies of the instrument effecting any of the foregoing Transfers, (B) documentation establishing Tenant’s satisfaction of the requirements set forth above applicable to any such Transfer, (C) evidence of insurance as required under this Lease with respect to the Permitted Transferee, and (D) evidence of compliance with the regulations of OFAC and any statute, executive order (including the September 24, 2001, Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism), or other governmental action relating thereto, including the name and address of the Permitted Transferee and any entities and persons who own, control or direct the Permitted Transferee. The occurrence of a Permitted Transfer shall not waive Landlord’s rights as to any subsequent Transfers. “Tangible Net Worth” means the excess of total assets over total liabilities, in each case as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied (“GAAP”), excluding, however, from the determination of total assets all assets which would be classified as intangible assets under GAAP including goodwill, licenses, patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, and franchises. Any subsequent Transfer by a Permitted Transferee shall be subject to the terms of this Section.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 13 |
12. Insurance; Waivers; Subrogation; Indemnity.
(a) | Tenant’s Insurance. Effective as of the earlier of (1) the date Tenant enters or occupies the Premises, or (2) the Commencement Date, and continuing throughout the Term, Tenant shall maintain the following insurance policies: (A) commercial general liability insurance in amounts of $3,000,000 per occurrence or, following the expiration of the initial Term, such other amounts as Landlord may from time to time reasonably require (and, if the use and occupancy of the Premises include any activity or matter that is or may be excluded from coverage under a commercial general liability policy (e.g., the sale, service or consumption of alcoholic beverages), Tenant shall obtain such endorsements to the commercial general liability policy or otherwise obtain insurance to insure all liability arising from such activity or matter (including liquor liability, if applicable) in such amounts as Landlord may reasonably require), insuring Tenant, Landlord, Landlord’s property management company, Landlord’s asset management company and, if requested in writing by Landlord, Landlord’s Mortgagee against all liability for injury to or death of a person or persons or damage to property arising from the use and occupancy of the Premises and (without implying any consent by Landlord to the installation thereof) the installation, operation, maintenance, repair or removal of Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment, (B) insurance covering the full value of all alterations and improvements and betterments in the Premises, naming Landlord and Xxxxxxxx’s Mortgagee as additional loss payees as their interests may appear, (C) insurance covering the full value of all furniture, trade fixtures and personal property (including property of Tenant or others) in the Premises or otherwise placed in the Project by or on behalf of a Tenant Party (including Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment), (D) contractual liability insurance sufficient to cover Tenant’s indemnity obligations hereunder (but only if such contractual liability insurance is not already included in Tenant’s commercial general liability insurance policy), (E) worker’s compensation insurance, and (F) business interruption insurance in an amount reasonably acceptable to Landlord. The commercial general liability insurance to be maintained by Tenant may have a deductible of no more than $5,000 per occurrence; the property insurance to be maintained by Tenant may have a deductible of no more than $10,000 per occurrence; and, all other insurance to be maintained by Tenant shall have no deductible. Tenant’s insurance shall provide primary coverage to Landlord when any policy issued to Landlord provides duplicate or similar coverage, and in such circumstance Landlord’s policy will be excess over Tenant’s policy. Tenant shall furnish to Landlord certificates of such insurance and such other evidence satisfactory to Landlord of the maintenance of all insurance coverages required hereunder at least ten days prior to the earlier of the Commencement Date or the date Tenant enters or occupies the Premises, and at least 15 days prior to each renewal of said insurance, and Tenant shall obtain a written obligation on the part of each insurance company to notify Landlord at least 30 days before cancellation or a material change of any such insurance policies. All such insurance policies shall be in form, and issued by companies with a Best’s rating of A+:VII or better, reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. If Tenant fails to comply with the foregoing insurance requirements or to deliver to Landlord the certificates or evidence of coverage required herein, Landlord, in addition to any other remedy available pursuant to this Lease or otherwise, may, but shall not be obligated to, obtain such insurance and Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the premium costs thereof, plus an administrative fee of 15% of such cost. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 14 |
(b) | Landlord’s Insurance. Beginning on the Lease Date and continuing until expiration of the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall maintain, as a minimum, the following insurance policies: (1) property insurance for the Building’s replacement value (excluding property required to be insured by Tenant), less a commercially-reasonable deductible if Landlord so chooses, and (2) commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than $3,000,000. Landlord may, but is not obligated to, maintain such other insurance and additional coverages as it may deem necessary. The cost of all insurance carried by Landlord with respect to the Project shall be included in Insurance Costs (defined below). The foregoing insurance policies and any other insurance carried by Landlord shall be for the sole benefit of Landlord and under Xxxxxxxx’s sole control, and Tenant shall have no right or claim to any proceeds thereof or any other rights thereunder. |
(c) | No Subrogation; Waiver of Property Claims. Landlord and Tenant each waives any claim it might have against the other for any damage to or theft, destruction, loss, or loss of use of any property, to the extent the same is insured against under any insurance policy of the types described in this Section 12 that covers the Project, the Premises, Xxxxxxxx’s or Tenant’s fixtures, personal property, leasehold improvements, or business, or is required to be insured against under the terms hereof, regardless of whether the negligence of the other party caused such Loss (defined below). Additionally, Tenant waives any claim it may have against Landlord for any Loss to the extent such Loss is caused by a terrorist act. Each party shall cause its insurance carrier to endorse all applicable policies waiving the carrier’s rights of recovery under subrogation or otherwise against the other party. Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord, its agents, employees and contractors shall not be liable to Tenant or to any party claiming by, through or under Tenant for (and Tenant hereby releases Landlord and its servants, agents, contractors, employees and invitees from any claim or responsibility for) any damage to or destruction, loss, or loss of use, or theft of any property of any Tenant Party located in or about the Project, caused by casualty, theft, fire, third parties or any other matter or cause, regardless of whether the negligence of any party caused such loss in whole or in part. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord shall not carry insurance on, and shall not be responsible for damage to, any property of any Tenant Party located in or about the Project. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 15 |
(d) Indemnity.
(1) Subject to Section 12(c), Tenant shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Landlord and its representatives and agents from and against all claims, demands, liabilities, causes of action, suits, judgments, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from any injury to or death of any person or the damage to or theft, destruction, loss or loss of use of, any property or inconvenience (a “Loss”) (1) occurring in or on the Project (other than within the Premises) to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of any Tenant Party, (2) occurring in the Premises, or (3) arising out of the installation, operation, maintenance, repair or removal of any property of any Tenant Party located in or about the Project, including Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment; provided, however, such indemnity shall not apply to the extent caused by the active negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents.
(2) Subject to Section 12(c), Landlord shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Tenant and its representatives and agents from and against all Losses occurring in or on the Project (other than within the Premises) to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents; provided, however, such indemnity shall not apply to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant and its agents.
(3) The indemnities set forth in this Lease shall survive termination or expiration of this Lease and shall not terminate or be waived, diminished or affected in any manner by any abatement or apportionment of Rent under any provision of this Lease. If any proceeding is filed for which indemnity is required hereunder, the indemnifying party agrees, upon request therefor, to defend the indemnified party in such proceeding at its sole cost utilizing counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party.
(e) | Cost of Landlord’s Insurance. Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the cost of the property and liability insurance carried by Landlord from time to time with respect to the Building (including other improvements and Landlord’s personal property used in connection therewith), which may include fire and extended coverage insurance (including extended and broad form coverage risks, mudslide, land subsidence, volcanic eruption, flood, earthquake and rent loss insurance) and comprehensive general public liability insurance and excess liability insurance, in such amounts and containing such terms as Landlord deems necessary or desirable (collectively, “Insurance Costs”). During each month beginning on the Lease Date and continuing until expiration of the Term, Tenant shall make a monthly payment to Landlord equal to 1/12th of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Insurance Costs that will be due and payable for that particular year. Each payment of Insurance Costs shall be due and payable at the same time as, and in the same manner as, provided above for Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs. The initial monthly payment of Insurance Costs is based upon Xxxxxxxx’s good faith estimate of Xxxxxx’s Proportionate Share of the estimated Insurance Costs for the remainder of the first calendar year. The monthly payment of Insurance Costs is subject to increase or decrease as determined by Landlord to reflect accurately Tenant’s Proportionate Share of estimated Insurance Costs. If, following Xxxxxxxx’s receipt of the bill for the insurance premiums for a calendar year, Landlord determines that Tenant’s total payments of Insurance Costs are less than Tenant’s Proportionate Share of actual Insurance Costs, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the difference upon demand; if Tenant’s total payments of Insurance Costs are more than Tenant’s Proportionate Share of actual Insurance Costs, Landlord shall retain such excess and credit it to Tenant’s future payments of Insurance Costs (unless such adjustment is at the end of the Term, in which event Landlord shall refund such excess to Tenant). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, at any time during the Term, Tenant shall have the right to audit or otherwise review Landlord’s records with respect to the actual Insurance Costs for each year, in accordance with the terms of Section 4(b)(4). |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 16 |
13. Subordination; Attornment; Notice to Landlord’s Mortgagee.
(a) | Subordination. This Lease shall be subordinate to any deed of trust, mortgage, or other security instrument (each, a “Mortgage”), or any ground lease, master lease, or primary lease (each, a “Primary Lease”), that now or hereafter covers all or any part of the Premises (the mortgagee under any such Mortgage, beneficiary under any such deed of trust, or the lessor under any such Primary Lease is referred to herein as a “Landlord’s Mortgagee”) so long as the holder of the Mortgage or Primary Lease agrees not to disturb Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the Premises provided that Tenant is not in default of its obligations under this Lease beyond any applicable cure period. Any Landlord’s Mortgagee may elect, at any time, unilaterally, to make this Lease superior to its Mortgage, Primary Lease, or other interest in the Premises by so notifying Tenant in writing. Provided the requirements set forth above are satisfied, the provisions of this Section shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required; however, in confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord (or such other party designated by Landlord) within ten days after written request therefor such documentation, in recordable form if required, as a Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably request to evidence the subordination of this Lease to such Landlord’s Mortgagee’s Mortgage or Primary Lease (including a subordination, non- disturbance and attornment agreement) or, if the Landlord’s Mortgagee so elects, the subordination of such Landlord’s Mortgagee’s Mortgage or Primary Lease to this Lease. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a subordination, non-disturbance, and attornment agreement(s) from its Landlord Mortgagee(s) in a form reasonably acceptable to Tenant within five (5) business days following the date Landlord enters into a Mortgage. |
(b) | Attornment. Tenant shall attorn to any party succeeding to Landlord’s interest in the Premises, whether by purchase, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, power of sale, termination of lease, or otherwise, upon such party’s request, and shall execute such agreements confirming such attornment as such party may reasonably request. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 17 |
(c) | Notice to Landlord’s Mortgagee. Tenant shall not seek to enforce any remedy it may have for any default on the part of Landlord without first giving written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, specifying the default in reasonable detail, to any Landlord’s Mortgagee whose address has been given to Tenant, and affording such Landlord’s Mortgagee the same opportunity to perform Landlord’s obligations hereunder. |
(d) | Landlord’s Mortgagee’s Protection Provisions. If Landlord’s Mortgagee shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, Landlord’s Mortgagee shall not be: (1) liable for any act or omission of any prior lessor (including Landlord); provided, however, that such shall not be deemed to permit the repetition or continuation of any such act or omission (or the continuation of a condition from a past act or omission) not otherwise permitted under the Lease; (2) bound by any rent or additional rent or advance rent which Tenant might have paid for more than the current month to any prior lessor (including Landlord), and all such rent shall remain due and owing, notwithstanding such advance payment; (3) bound by any security or advance rental deposit made by Tenant which is not delivered or paid over to Landlord’s Mortgagee and with respect to which Tenant shall look solely to Landlord for refund or reimbursement; (4) bound by any termination, amendment or modification of this Lease made without Landlord’s Mortgagee’s consent and written approval, except for those terminations, amendments and modifications permitted to be made by Landlord without Landlord’s Mortgagee’s consent pursuant to the terms of the loan documents between Landlord and Landlord’s Mortgagee; (5) subject to the defenses which Tenant might have against any prior lessor (including Landlord); and (6) subject to the offsets which Tenant might have against any prior lessor (including Landlord) except for those offset rights which (A) are expressly provided in this Lease, (B) relate to periods of time following the acquisition of the Building by Xxxxxxxx’s Mortgagee, and (C) Tenant has provided written notice to Landlord’s Mortgagee and provided Landlord’s Mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to cure the event giving rise to such offset event. Landlord’s Mortgagee shall have no liability or responsibility under or pursuant to the terms of this Lease or otherwise after it ceases to own an interest in the Project. Nothing in this Lease shall be construed to require Landlord’s Mortgagee to see to the application of the proceeds of any loan, and Tenant’s agreements set forth herein shall not be impaired on account of any modification of the documents evidencing and securing any loan. |
14. Rules and Regulations. Tenant shall comply with the rules and regulations of the Project which are attached hereto as Exhibit C. Landlord may, from time to time, change such rules and regulations for the safety, care, or cleanliness of the Project and related facilities, provided that such changes are applicable to all tenants of the Project, will not unreasonably interfere with Xxxxxx’s use of the Premises and are enforced by Landlord in a non-discriminatory manner. Tenant shall be responsible for the compliance with such rules and regulations by each Tenant Party, but such rules and regulations shall be uniformly applied.
15. Condemnation.
(a) | Total Taking. If the entire Building or Premises are taken by right of eminent domain or conveyed in lieu thereof (a “Taking”), this Lease shall terminate as of the date of the Taking. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 18 |
(b) | Partial Taking - Tenant’s Rights. If any part of the Building becomes subject to a Taking and such Taking will prevent Tenant from conducting on a permanent basis its business in the Premises in a manner reasonably comparable to that conducted immediately before such Taking, then Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date of such Taking by giving written notice to Landlord within 30 days after the Taking, and Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such Taking. If Tenant does not terminate this Lease, then Rent shall be abated on a reasonable basis as to that portion of the Premises rendered untenantable by the Taking. |
(c) | Partial Taking - Landlord’s Rights. If any material portion, but less than all, of the Building becomes subject to a Taking, or if Landlord is required to pay any of the proceeds arising from a Taking to a Landlord’s Mortgagee, then Landlord may terminate this Lease by delivering written notice thereof to Tenant within 30 days after such Taking, and Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such Taking. If Landlord does not so terminate this Lease, then this Lease will continue, but if any portion of the Premises has been taken, Rent shall xxxxx as provided in the last sentence of Section 15(b). |
(d) | Temporary Taking. If all or any portion of the Premises becomes subject to a Taking for a limited period of time, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant shall continue to perform all of the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease, including the payment of Basic Rent and all other amounts required hereunder. If any such temporary Taking terminates prior to the expiration of the Term, Tenant shall restore the Premises as nearly as possible to the condition prior to such temporary Taking, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award for any such temporary Taking, except that Tenant shall be entitled to receive the portion of such award which (1) compensates Tenant for its loss of use of the Premises within the Term and (2) reimburses Tenant for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs actually incurred by Tenant to restore the Premises as required by this Section. |
(e) | Award. If any Taking occurs, then Landlord shall receive the entire award or other compensation for the Land, the Building, and other improvements taken; however, Tenant may separately pursue a claim (to the extent it will not reduce Landlord’s award) against the condemnor for the value of Tenant’s personal property which Xxxxxx is entitled to remove under this Lease, moving costs, loss of business, and other claims it may have. |
16. | Fire or Other Casualty. |
(a) | Repair Estimate. If the Premises or the Building are damaged by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Landlord shall, within 90 days after such Casualty, deliver to Tenant a good faith estimate (the “Damage Notice”) of the time needed to repair the damage caused by such Casualty. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 19 |
(b) | Tenant’s Rights. If a material portion of the Premises is damaged by Casualty such that Tenant is prevented from conducting its business in the Premises in a manner reasonably comparable to that conducted immediately before such Casualty and Landlord in good faith estimates that the damage caused thereby cannot be repaired within 270 days after the commencement of repairs (the “Repair Period”), then Tenant may terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to Landlord of its election to terminate within 30 days after the Damage Notice has been delivered to Tenant. |
(c) | Landlord’s Rights. If a Casualty damages the Premises or a material portion of the Building and (1) Landlord estimates that the damage to the Premises cannot be repaired within the Repair Period, (2) the damage to the Premises exceeds 50% of the replacement cost thereof (excluding foundations and footings), as reasonably estimated by Landlord, and such damage occurs during the last two years of the Term, (3) regardless of the extent of damage to the Premises, the damage is not fully covered by Landlord’s insurance policies or Landlord makes a good faith determination that restoring the Building would be uneconomical, or (4) Landlord is required to pay any insurance proceeds arising out of the Casualty to a Landlord’s Mortgagee, then Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving written notice of its election to terminate within 30 days after the Damage Notice has been delivered to Tenant. |
(d) | Repair Obligation. If neither party elects to terminate this Lease following a Casualty, then Landlord shall, within a reasonable time after such Casualty, begin to repair the Premises and shall proceed with reasonable diligence to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as they existed immediately before such Casualty; however, Landlord shall not be required to repair or replace any alterations or betterments within the Premises (which shall be promptly and with due diligence repaired and restored by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) or any furniture, equipment, trade fixtures or personal property of Tenant or others in the Premises or the Building, and Landlord’s obligation to repair or restore the Premises shall be limited to the extent of the insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord for the Casualty in question. If this Lease is terminated under the provisions of this Section, Landlord shall be entitled to the full proceeds of the insurance policies providing coverage for all alterations, improvements and betterments in the Premises (and, if Tenant has failed to maintain insurance on such items as required by this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount equal to the proceeds Landlord would have received had Tenant maintained insurance on such items as required by this Lease). |
(e) | Abatement of Rent. If the Premises are damaged by Casualty, Rent for the portion of the Premises rendered untenantable by the damage shall be abated on a reasonable basis from the date of damage until the completion of Landlord’s repairs (or until the date of termination of this Lease by Landlord or Tenant as provided above, as the case may be), unless a Tenant Party caused such damage, in which case, Tenant shall pay Rent in excess of the amount of any proceeds actually received by Landlord in connection with any policy of rent loss insurance maintained by Landlord. |

17. Personal Property Taxes. Tenant shall be liable for all taxes levied or assessed against personal property, furniture, or fixtures placed by Tenant in the Premises or in or on the Building or Project. If any taxes for which Xxxxxx is liable are levied or assessed against Landlord or Landlord’s property and Landlord elects to pay the same, or if the assessed value of Landlord’s property is increased by inclusion of such personal property, furniture or fixtures and Landlord elects to pay the taxes based on such increase, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within 30 days following written request therefor, the part of such taxes for which Tenant is primarily liable hereunder; however, Landlord shall not pay such amount if Tenant notifies Landlord that it will contest the validity or amount of such taxes before Landlord makes such payment, and thereafter diligently proceeds with such contest in accordance with Law and if the non-payment thereof does not pose a threat of loss or seizure of the Project or interest of Landlord therein or impose any fee or penalty against Landlord.
18. Events of Default. Each of the following occurrences shall be an “Event of Default”:
(a) Payment Default. Tenant’s failure to pay Rent within five business days after Xxxxxxxx has delivered written notice to Tenant that the same is due; however, an Event of Default shall occur hereunder without any obligation of Landlord to give any notice if Tenant fails to pay Rent when due and, during the 12 month interval preceding such failure, Landlord has given Tenant written notice of failure to pay Rent on two or more occasions;
(b) Intentionally Deleted;
(c) Estoppel. Tenant fails to provide any estoppel certificate after Xxxxxxxx’s written request therefor pursuant to Section 26(f) and such failure shall continue for five days after Xxxxxxxx’s second written notice thereof to Tenant;
(d) Insurance. Tenant fails to procure, maintain and deliver to Landlord evidence of the insurance policies and coverages as required under Section 12(a) within fifteen (15) days after Xxxxxxxx has delivered written notice to Tenant, provided, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Lease, the foregoing cure period shall not apply with respect to Landlord’s right to exercise its right of self-help as set forth in Section 19 (c) below;
(e) Xxxxxxxx’s Liens. Xxxxxx fails to pay and release of record, or diligently contest and bond around, any mechanic’s lien filed against the Premises or the Project for any work performed, materials furnished, or obligation incurred by or at the request of Tenant, within the time and in the manner required by Section 8(d);
(f) Other Defaults. Tenant’s failure to perform, comply with, or observe any other agreement or obligation of Tenant under this Lease and the continuance of such failure for a period of more than 30 days after Xxxxxxxx has delivered to Tenant written notice thereof (or if Tenant does not within said period commence and diligently proceed to cure such default); and
(g) Insolvency The filing of a petition by or against Tenant (the term “Tenant” shall include, for the purpose of this Section, any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations hereunder) (1) in any bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding; (2) seeking any relief under any state or federal debtor relief law; (3) for the appointment of a liquidator or receiver for all or substantially all of Tenant’s property or for Tenant’s interest in this Lease; (4) for the reorganization or modification of Tenant’s capital structure; or (5) in any assignment for the benefit of creditors proceeding; however, if such a petition is filed against Tenant, then such filing shall not be an Event of Default unless Tenant fails to have the proceedings initiated by such petition dismissed within 90 days after the filing thereof.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 21 |
19. Remedies. Upon any Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to all other rights and remedies afforded Landlord hereunder or by law or equity, take any one or more of the following actions:
(a) | Termination of Lease. Terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice thereof, in which event Tenant shall pay to Landlord the sum of (1) all Rent accrued hereunder through the date of termination, (2) all amounts due under Section 20(a), and (3) an amount equal to (A) the total Rent that Tenant would have been required to pay for the remainder of the Term discounted to present value at a per annum rate equal to the “Prime Rate” as published on the date this Lease is terminated by The Wall Street Journal, Southwest Edition, in its listing of “Money Rates” minus one percent, minus (B) the then present fair rental value of the Premises for such period, similarly discounted. |
(b) | Termination of Possession. Terminate Tenant’s right to possess the Premises without terminating this Lease by giving written notice thereof to Tenant, in which event Tenant shall pay to Landlord (1) all Rent and other amounts accrued hereunder to the date of termination of possession, (2) all amounts due from time to time under Section 20(a), and (3) all Rent and other net sums required hereunder to be paid by Tenant during the remainder of the Term, diminished by any net sums thereafter received by Landlord through reletting the Premises during such period, after deducting all reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in reletting the Premises. If Landlord elects to proceed under this Section, Landlord may remove all of Tenant’s property from the Premises and store the same in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for the account of, Tenant, without becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby. Landlord shall mitigate its damages and shall use reasonable efforts to relet the Premises on such terms as Landlord in its sole discretion may determine (including a term different from the Term, rental concessions, and alterations to, and improvement of, the Premises); however, Landlord shall not be obligated to relet the Premises before leasing other portions of the Building and Landlord shall not be obligated to accept any prospective tenant proposed by Tenant unless such proposed tenant meets all of Landlord’s leasing criteria. So long as Landlord has complied with its obligations hereunder, Landlord shall not be liable for, nor shall Tenant’s obligations hereunder be diminished because of, Landlord’s failure to relet the Premises or to collect rent due for such reletting. Tenant shall not be entitled to the excess of any consideration obtained by reletting over the Rent due hereunder. Reentry by Landlord in the Premises shall not affect Xxxxxx’s obligations hereunder for the unexpired Term; rather, Landlord may, from time to time, bring an action against Tenant to collect amounts due by Xxxxxx, without the necessity of Landlord’s waiting until the expiration of the Term. Unless Landlord delivers written notice to Tenant expressly stating that it has elected to terminate this Lease, all actions taken by Landlord to dispossess or exclude Tenant from the Premises shall be deemed to be taken under this Section. If Landlord elects to proceed under this Section, it may at any time elect to terminate this Lease under Section 19(a). |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 22 |
(c) | Perform Acts on Behalf of Tenant. Perform any act Tenant is obligated to perform under the terms of this Lease (and enter upon the Premises in connection therewith if necessary) in Tenant’s name and on Tenant’s behalf, without being liable for any claim for damages therefor, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord on demand for any reasonable expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with Tenant’s obligations under this Lease (including, but not limited to, reasonable collection costs and legal expenses), plus interest thereon at the Default Rate. |
20. | Payment by Tenant; Non-Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. |
(a) | Payment by Xxxxxx. Upon any Event of Default, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs incurred by Landlord (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in (1) obtaining possession of the Premises, (2) removing and storing Tenant’s or any other occupant’s property, (3) repairing, restoring, altering, remodeling, or otherwise putting the Premises into condition acceptable to a new tenant, (4) if Tenant is dispossessed of the Premises and this Lease is not terminated, reletting all or any part of the Premises (including brokerage commissions, cost of tenant finish work, and other costs incidental to such reletting) applicable to the balance of the then current Term, (5) performing Tenant’s obligations which Xxxxxx failed to perform, and (6) enforcing, or advising Landlord of, its rights, remedies, and recourses arising out of the default. To the full extent permitted by law, Landlord and Tenant agree the federal and state courts of the state in which the Premises are located shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any matter relating to or arising from this Lease and the parties’ rights and obligations under this Lease. |
(b) | No Waiver. Xxxxxxxx’s acceptance of Rent following an Event of Default shall not waive Landlord’s rights regarding such Event of Default. No waiver by Landlord of any violation or breach of any of the terms contained herein shall waive Landlord’s rights regarding any future violation of such term. Xxxxxxxx’s acceptance of any partial payment of Rent shall not waive Landlord’s rights with regard to the remaining portion of the Rent that is due, regardless of any endorsement or other statement on any instrument delivered in payment of Rent or any writing delivered in connection therewith; accordingly, Xxxxxxxx’s acceptance of a partial payment of Rent shall not constitute an accord and satisfaction of the full amount of the Rent that is due. |
(c) | Cumulative Remedies. Any and all remedies set forth in this Lease: (1) shall be in addition to any and all other remedies Landlord may have at law or in equity, (2) shall be cumulative, and (3) may be pursued successively or concurrently as Landlord may elect. The exercise of any remedy by Landlord shall not be deemed an election of remedies or preclude Landlord from exercising any other remedies in the future. |
21. Landlord’s Lien. Landlord waives any statutory landlord’s lien, now or hereafter enacted, on Tenant’s property situated in, or upon, or used in connection with the Premises or the Project.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 23 |
22. Surrender of Premises. No act by Landlord shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept a surrender of the Premises shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by Landlord. At the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the Premises with all improvements located therein in good repair and condition, free of Hazardous Materials placed on the Premises during the Term, broom-clean, reasonable wear and tear (and condemnation and Casualty damage not caused by Tenant, as to which Sections 15 and 16 shall control) excepted, and shall deliver to Landlord all keys to the Premises. Tenant may remove all unattached trade fixtures, furniture, and personal property placed in the Premises or elsewhere in the Building by Tenant (but Tenant may not remove any such item which was paid for, in whole or in part, by Landlord or any wiring or cabling unless Landlord requires such removal). Additionally, if Landlord requests such removal (but not otherwise), Tenant shall remove such alterations, additions, improvements, trade fixtures, personal property, equipment, wiring, conduits, cabling, and furniture (including Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment) as Landlord may request, including, without limitation, if Landlord requests such removal and restoration (but not otherwise); however, Tenant shall not be required to remove any addition or improvement to the Premises or the Project if Landlord has specifically agreed in writing that the improvement or addition in question need not be removed. Tenant shall repair all damage caused by such removal. All items not so removed shall, at Landlord’s option, be deemed to have been abandoned by Tenant and may be appropriated, sold, stored, destroyed, or otherwise disposed of by Landlord without notice to Tenant and without any obligation to account for such items. The provisions of this Section shall survive the end of the Term.
23. Holding Over. If Tenant fails to vacate the Premises at the end of the Term, then Tenant shall be a tenant at sufferance and, in addition to all other damages and remedies to which Landlord may be entitled for such holding over, (a) Tenant shall pay, in addition to the other Rent, Basic Rent equal to 150% of the Rent payable during the last month of the Term, and (b) Tenant shall otherwise continue to be subject to all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. The provisions of this Section shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law. If Xxxxxx fails to surrender the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and liability resulting from such failure, including any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender, and any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom.
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 24 |
24. Certain Rights Reserved by Landlord. Provided that the exercise of such rights does not unreasonably interfere with Xxxxxx’s occupancy of the Premises, Landlord shall have the following rights:
(a) | Building Operations. To decorate and to make inspections, repairs, alterations, additions, changes, or improvements, whether structural or otherwise, in and about the Project, or any part thereof; to enter upon the Premises (after giving Tenant reasonable notice thereof, which shall be written notice, except in cases of real or apparent emergency, in which case no notice shall be required) and, during the continuance of any such work, to temporarily close doors, entryways, public space, and corridors in the Building; to interrupt or temporarily suspend Building services and facilities; to change the name of the Building; and to change the arrangement and location of entrances or passageways, doors, and doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, restrooms, or other public parts of the Building. Landlord may not enter Tenant’s secured areas except in the case of emergency or in the event of a Landlord inspection, in which case Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable prior notice of the specific date and time of such Landlord inspection. As a condition to entry, Landlord shall comply with all procedures established by Tenant to maintain the germ-free and sanitary condition of any secured areas and Landlord’s representatives entering the Premises shall sign the confidentiality agreement that Tenant requires of visitors to the Premises. In addition, Tenant shall have the right and option to cause a Tenant-authorized representative to be present during any such entry by Landlord, its agents, employees and representatives. |
(b) | Security. To take such reasonable measures as Landlord deems advisable for the security of the Building and its occupants; evacuating the Building for cause, suspected cause, or for drill purposes; temporarily denying access to the Building; and closing the Building after normal business hours and on Sundays and holidays, subject, however, to Tenant’s right to enter when the Building is closed after normal business hours to the extent reasonably related to Tenant’s Permitted Use of the Premises and its business operations. |
(c) | Prospective Purchasers and Lenders. To enter the Premises at reasonable hours after notice to show the Premises to prospective purchasers or lenders; provided, that as a condition to entry Landlord and any prospective purchasers or lenders shall comply with all procedures established by Tenant to maintain the germ-free and sanitary condition of any areas within the Premises designated by Tenant to Landlord as secured areas (“Secured Areas”) and shall sign the confidentiality agreement that Tenant requires of visitors to the Premises. |
(d) | Prospective Tenants. At reasonable hours after notice during the last six months of the Term, to enter the Premises at all reasonable hours after notice to show the Premises to prospective tenants; provided, that as a condition to entry Landlord and any prospective tenant shall comply with all procedures established by Tenant to maintain the germ-free and sanitary condition of any Secured Areas and shall sign the confidentiality agreement that Tenant requires of visitors to the Premises. |
25. | Miscellaneous. |
(a) | Landlord Transfer. Landlord may transfer any portion of the Project and any of its rights under this Lease. If Landlord assigns its rights under this Lease, then Landlord shall thereby be released from any further obligations hereunder arising after the date of transfer, provided that the assignee assumes in writing Landlord’s obligations hereunder arising from and after the transfer date. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 25 |
(b) | Default by Landlord. Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within thirty (30) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord (except in cases of emergency in which case Landlord’s obligations hereunder shall be performed as soon as reasonably practicable) and to the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises whose name and address shall have been previously furnished to Tenant in writing specifying what obligation Landlord has failed to perform; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days is required for performance then Landlord shall not be in default if Landlord commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues the same to completion. In no event shall Tenant have the right to terminate this Lease as a result of Landlord’s default. In addition to the above, if Xxxxxxxx fails to cure such Landlord default within the Landlord cure period, or fails to commence to cure within the Landlord cure period and thereafter diligently pursue the same to completion, as applicable, Tenant may, but shall have no obligation to do so, perform the same for the account of Landlord. Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days of demand therefor, at Xxxxxxxx’s election, either (i) credit against Xxxxxx’s obligation to pay Basic Rent the documented, out-of-pocket costs reasonably incurred by Tenant in curing such Landlord default, or (ii) reimburse Tenant the documented, out-of-pocket costs reasonably incurred by Tenant in curing such Landlord default together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date demanded by Xxxxxx. |
(c) | Landlord’s Liability. The liability of Landlord (and its partners, shareholders or members) to Tenant (or any person or entity claiming by, through or under Tenant) for any default by Landlord under the terms of this Lease or any matter relating to or arising out of the occupancy or use of the Premises and/or other areas of the Building shall be limited to Tenant’s actual direct, but not consequential, damages therefor and shall be recoverable only from the interest of Landlord in the Project and the rents and profits therefrom, and Landlord (and its partners, shareholders or members) shall not be personally liable for any deficiency. The provisions of this Section shall survive any expiration or termination of this Lease. |
(d) | Force Majeure. Other than for a party’s obligations under this Lease that can be performed by the payment of money (e.g., payment of Rent and maintenance of insurance), whenever a period of time is herein prescribed for action to be taken by either party hereto, such party shall not be liable or responsible for, and there shall be excluded from the computation of any such period of time, any delays due to strikes, riots, acts of God, shortages of labor or materials, war, terrorist acts or activities, governmental laws, regulations, or restrictions, or any other causes of any kind whatsoever which are beyond the control of such party. |
(e) | Brokerage. Neither Landlord nor Xxxxxx has dealt with any broker or agent in connection with the negotiation or execution of this Lease, other than CBRE, Attn: Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx(representing Tenant), whose commissions shall be paid by Landlord pursuant to separate written agreements. Tenant and Landlord shall each indemnify the other against all costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, liens and other liability for commissions or other compensation claimed by any broker or agent claiming the same by, through, or under the indemnifying party. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 26 |
(f) | Estoppel Certificates. From time to time, each party shall furnish to any party designated by the other party, within ten days after a request therefor, a certificate signed by the party confirming and containing such factual certifications and representations as to this Lease as the requesting party may reasonably request. Unless otherwise required by Landlord’s Mortgagee or a prospective purchaser or mortgagee of the Project, the initial form of estoppel certificate to be signed by Tenant is attached hereto as Exhibit F. If Tenant does not deliver to Landlord the certificate signed by Tenant within such required time period, Landlord, Landlord’s Mortgagee and any prospective purchaser or mortgagee, may conclusively presume and rely upon the following facts: (1) this Lease is in full force and effect; (2) the terms and provisions of this Lease have not been changed except as otherwise represented by Landlord; (3) not more than one monthly installment of Basic Rent and other charges have been paid in advance; (4) there are no claims against Landlord nor any defenses or rights of offset against collection of Rent or other charges; and (5) Landlord is not in default under this Lease. In such event, Tenant shall be estopped from denying the truth of the presumed facts. |
(g) | Notices. All notices and other communications given pursuant to this Lease shall be in writing and shall be (1) mailed by first class, United States Mail, postage prepaid, certified, with return receipt requested, and addressed to the parties hereto at the address specified in the Basic Lease Information, (2) hand delivered to the intended addressee, (3) sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (4) sent by email transmission during normal business hours. All notices shall be effective upon delivery to the address of the addressee (even if such addressee refuses delivery thereof). If sent by email, notice shall be deemed delivered upon transmission, and the party sending the notice also must send, unless such requirement is waived in a return email from the receiving party, a confirmation copy of the notice by one of the other foregoing methods set forth above within three (3) business days after the send date of the email, but the lack of delivery of such other notice does not negate the email notice. The parties hereto may change their addresses by giving notice thereof to the other in conformity with this provision. |
(h) | Separability. If any clause or provision of this Lease is illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws, then the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby and in lieu of such clause or provision, there shall be added as a part of this Lease 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. |
(i) | Amendments; Binding Effect. This Lease may not be amended except by instrument in writing signed by Landlord and Xxxxxx. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Landlord or Tenant unless such waiver is in writing signed by Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, and no custom or practice which may evolve between the parties in the administration of the terms hereof shall waive or diminish the right of Landlord or Tenant to insist upon the performance by Tenant or Landlord in strict accordance with the terms hereof. The terms and conditions contained in this Lease shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, and upon their respective successors in interest and legal representatives, except as otherwise herein expressly provided. This Lease is for the sole benefit of Landlord and Tenant, and, other than Landlord’s Mortgagee, no third party shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 27 |
(j) | Quiet Enjoyment. Provided Tenant has performed all of its obligations hereunder, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term, without hindrance from Landlord or any party claiming by, through, or under Landlord, but not otherwise, subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease. |
(k) | No Merger. There shall be no merger of the leasehold estate hereby created with the fee estate in the Premises or any part thereof if the same person acquires or holds, directly or indirectly, this Lease or any interest in this Lease and the fee estate in the leasehold Premises or any interest in such fee estate. |
(l) | No Offer. The submission of this Lease to Tenant shall not be construed as an offer, and Tenant shall not have any rights under this Lease unless Landlord executes a copy of this Lease and delivers it to Tenant. |
(m) | Entire Agreement. This Lease constitutes the entire agreement between Landlord and Tenant regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes all oral statements and prior writings relating thereto. Except for those set forth in this Lease, no representations, warranties, or agreements have been made by Landlord or Tenant to the other with respect to this Lease or the obligations of Landlord or Tenant in connection therewith. The normal rule of construction that any ambiguities be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply to the interpretation of this Lease or any exhibits or amendments hereto. |
(n) | Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LANDLORD AND TENANT EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION OR TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS LEASE OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO. |
(o) | Governing Law. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state in which the Premises are located. |
(p) | Recording. Tenant shall not record this Lease or any memorandum of this Lease without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld or denied in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord, and any recordation by Tenant shall be a material breach of this Lease. Tenant grants to Landlord a power of attorney to execute and record a release releasing any such recorded instrument of record that was recorded without the prior written consent of Landlord. |
(q) | Water or Mold Notification. To the extent Tenant or its agents or employees discover any water leakage, water damage or mold in or about the Premises or Project, Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord thereof in writing. |
(r) | Joint and Several Liability. If Tenant is comprised of more than one party, each such party shall be jointly and severally liable for Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. All unperformed obligations of Tenant hereunder not fully performed at the end of the Term shall survive the end of the Term, including payment obligations with respect to Rent and all obligations concerning the condition and repair of the Premises. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 28 |
(s) | Financial Reports. Within 15 days after Xxxxxxxx’s request, Xxxxxx will furnish Tenant’s most recent audited financial statements (including any notes to them) to Landlord, or, if no such audited statements have been prepared, such other financial statements (and notes to them) as may have been prepared by an independent certified public accountant or, failing those, Tenant’s internally prepared financial statements. If Tenant is a publicly traded corporation, Tenant may satisfy its obligations hereunder by providing to Landlord Xxxxxx’s most recent annual and quarterly reports. If Tenant is not a publicly traded corporation, Tenant will discuss its financial statements with Landlord. Landlord will not disclose any aspect of Tenant’s financial statements that Tenant designates to Landlord as confidential except (1) to Landlord’s Mortgagee or prospective mortgagees or purchasers of the Building, but only after any such Landlord’s Mortgagee or prospective mortgagee executes a confidentiality agreement in form reasonably requested by Xxxxxx, (2) in litigation between Landlord and Tenant, and/or (3) if required by court order. Tenant shall not be required to deliver the financial statements required under this Section 25(r) more than once in any 12-month period unless requested by Landlord’s Mortgagee or a prospective buyer or lender of the Building or an Event of Default occurs and is continuing. |
(t) | Landlord’s Fees. Whenever Tenant requests Landlord to take any action not required of it hereunder or give any consent required or permitted under this Lease, Tenant will reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s actual, reasonable, out-of-pocket costs payable to third parties and incurred by Landlord in reviewing the proposed action or consent, including reasonable attorneys’, engineers’ or architects’ fees, within 30 days after Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of a statement of such costs, which amount shall not exceed $2,500 per request without Tenant prior written approval. Tenant will be obligated to make such reimbursement without regard to whether Landlord consents to any such proposed action. |
(u) | Telecommunications. Tenant and its telecommunications companies, including local exchange telecommunications companies and alternative access vendor services companies, shall have no right of access to and within the Building, for the installation and operation of telecommunications systems, including voice, video, data, Internet, and any other services provided over wire, fiber optic, microwave, wireless, and any other transmission systems (“Telecommunications Services”), for part or all of Tenant’s telecommunications within the Building and from the Building to any other location without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant’s current provider of Telecommunications Services is deemed approved by Landlord. All providers of Telecommunications Services shall be required to comply with the rules and regulations of the Building, applicable Laws and Landlord’s policies and practices for the Building. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord shall not be required to provide or arrange for any Telecommunications Services and that Landlord shall have no liability to any Tenant Party in connection with the installation, operation or maintenance of Telecommunications Services or any equipment or facilities relating thereto. Tenant, at its cost and for its own account, shall be solely responsible for obtaining all Telecommunications Services. |

The receiving party shall be liable for any disclosures made in violation of this Section by the receiving party or by any entity or individual to whom the terms of and conditions of this Lease were disclosed or made available by the receiving party.

26. | Environmental Requirements. |
(a) | Prohibition against Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not permit or cause any party to bring any Hazardous Materials upon the Premises or in the Project or transport, store, use, generate, manufacture, dispose, or release any Hazardous Materials on or from the Premises or the Project in violation of Environmental Requirements. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall operate its business in the Premises in strict compliance with all Environmental Requirements and all requirements of this Lease. Tenant shall complete and certify to disclosure statements as requested by Xxxxxxxx from time to time relating to Tenant’s transportation, storage, use, generation, manufacture, or release of Hazardous Materials on the Premises or in the Project, and Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord a copy of any notice of violation relating to the Premises or the Project of any Environmental Requirement. |
(b) | Environmental Requirements. The term “Environmental Requirements” means all Laws regulating or relating to health, safety, or environmental conditions on, under, or about the Premises or the Project or the environment including the following: the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act; the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act; the Clean Air Act; the Clean Water Act; the Toxic Substances Control Act and all state and local counterparts thereto, and any common or civil law obligations including nuisance or trespass, and any other requirements of Section 14 and Exhibit C of this Lease.

For purposes of Environmental Requirements, to the extent authorized by law, Tenant is and shall be deemed to be the responsible party, including the “owner” and “operator” of Tenant’s “facility” and the “owner” of all Hazardous Materials brought on the Premises or the Project by a Tenant Party and the wastes, by-products, or residues generated, resulting, or produced therefrom. |
LEASE AGREEMENT – Page 31 |
(c) | Removal of Hazardous Materials. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall remove all Hazardous Materials stored, disposed of or otherwise released by a Tenant Party onto or from the Premises or the Project, in a manner and to a level that complies with all Environmental Requirements and does not limit any future uses of the Premises or the Project or require the recording of any deed restriction or notice regarding the Premises or the Project. Tenant shall perform such work at any time during the period of this Lease upon written request by Xxxxxxxx or, in the absence of a specific request by Landlord, before Xxxxxx’s right to possession of the Premises terminates or expires. If Tenant fails to perform such work within the time period reasonably specified by Landlord or before Xxxxxx’s right to possession terminates or expires (whichever is earlier), Landlord may at its discretion, and without waiving any other remedy available under this Lease or at law or equity (including an action to compel Tenant to perform such work), perform such work at Tenant’s cost. Tenant shall pay all costs incurred by Xxxxxxxx in performing such work within thirty (30) days after Xxxxxxxx’s request therefor. Such work performed by Xxxxxxxx is on behalf of Tenant and Xxxxxx remains the owner, generator, operator, transporter, and/or arranger of the Hazardous Materials for purposes of Environmental Requirements. Xxxxxx agrees not to enter into any agreement with any person, including any governmental authority, regarding the removal of Hazardous Materials that have been disposed of or otherwise released onto or from the Premises or the Project without the written approval of the Landlord. |
(d) | Tenant’s Indemnity. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all losses (including diminution in value of the Premises or the Project and loss of rental income from the Project), liabilities (INCLUDING ANY STRICT LIABILITY), claims, demands, actions, suits, damages (including punitive damages), expenses (including remediation, removal, repair, corrective action, or cleanup expenses), and costs (including actual attorneys’ fees, consultant fees or expert fees and including removal or management of any asbestos brought into the Premises or the Project or disturbed in breach of the requirements of this Section, regardless of whether such removal or management is required by Law) which are brought or recoverable against, or suffered or incurred by Landlord as a result of any release of Hazardous Materials or any breach of the requirements under this Section 26 by a Tenant Party regardless of whether Tenant had knowledge of such noncompliance. The obligations of Tenant under this Section shall survive any expiration or termination of this Lease. |
(e) | Inspections and Tests. Subject to Section 24(a) above, Landlord shall have access to, and a right to perform inspections and tests of, the Premises to determine Tenant’s compliance with Environmental Requirements, its obligations under this Section 26, or the environmental condition of the Premises. Access shall be granted to Landlord upon Xxxxxxxx’s prior notice to Tenant and at such times so as to minimize, so far as may be reasonable under the circumstances, any disturbance to Tenant’s operations. Such inspections and tests shall be conducted at Landlord’s expense, unless such inspections or tests reveal that Tenant has not complied with any Environmental Requirement, in which case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the reasonable cost of such inspection and tests. Xxxxxxxx’s receipt of or satisfaction with any environmental assessment in no way waives any rights that Landlord holds against Tenant. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any communication or report that Tenant makes to any governmental authority regarding any possible violation of Environmental Requirements or release or threat of release of any Hazardous Materials onto or from the Premises or the Project. Tenant shall, within five days of receipt thereof, provide Landlord with a copy of any documents or correspondence received from any governmental agency or other party relating to a possible violation of Environmental Requirements or claim or liability associated with the release or threat of release of any Hazardous Materials onto or from the Premises or the Project. |

The requirements of this Section 27 are in addition to and not in lieu of any other provision in this Lease. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 27 shall also apply to the areas where Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment is located. |

Except as provided above, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right, in common with other tenants of the Building to use such parking spaces associated with the Building as are allocated to Tenant by Landlord. Landlord shall use its reasonable discretion in allocating parking spaces to the tenants of the Building, taking into consideration all factors Landlord deems relevant, including the density and type (e.g., office or industrial) of use conducted by the tenants of the Building in their respective premises. Landlord reserves the right to initiate steps to control the parking utilization through gates, access cards, hang-tags or other means as appropriate. Parking spaces will be available to Tenant without charge during the Term. Landlord shall not be responsible for enforcing Tenant’s parking rights against third parties.
28. Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in one or more identical counterparts, and as so executed by all parties hereto shall constitute a single instrument for purposes of the effectiveness of this Lease. The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature” and words of like import in this Lease shall include images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) or an electronic signature executed through DocuSign or similar electronic format. The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based recordkeeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of any repairs, corrections or restoration which must be made, in Landlord’s good faith judgment, to the Premises or any other portion of the Building, if caused by the failure of Tenant’s Contractor or any other of Tenant’s agents, contractors or subcontractors (collectively, “Tenant’s Agents”) to comply with the Approved Working Drawings.

Provided that (a) this Lease is then in full force and effect, (b) Tenant is not then in default of any of its obligations under the Lease beyond any applicable notice or cure period, including, without limitation, Tenant’s obligations under this Work Letter to perform Tenant Improvement Work in accordance with the Approved Working Drawings and all applicable Laws, (c) Tenant has satisfactorily completed the Tenant Improvement Work and submitted to Landlord (if applicable and available) (i) two (2) full sets of blue line “as-built” drawings, together with a CAD disk showing the Tenant Improvements (updated by Tenant’s Architect as necessary to reflect all changes made to the Approved Working Drawings during the course of construction), (ii) a written statement from Tenant’s Architect that the work described on any such invoices has been completed in accordance with the Approved Working Drawings, (iii) properly executed statutory form unconditional mechanics’ lien releases from all of Tenant’s Agents, (iv) copies of all Permits, licenses, certificates and other governmental authorizations and approvals necessary in connection with, and indicating final approval of, the Tenant Improvement Work, (v) a statement of total design and construction fees and costs, and (vi) any other documents reasonably required by Landlord’s lender, and (d) Tenant has commenced business operations at the Premises, then Landlord shall pay the full amount of the Construction Allowance payable to Tenant hereunder within thirty (30) days following the full satisfaction of Tenant’s obligations set forth in parts (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this sentence.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, however, Tenant acknowledges that it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold consent to any Change Order if any of the circumstances listed in clauses 3.2(a) through 3.2(k) of this Work Letter apply.

The removal, repair and restoration described above shall be performed by Tenant.
