including the erection and maintenance of such scaffolding, canopies, fences
and props as may be required, or for the purpose of posting notices of
non-responsibility for alterations, additions, or repairs, or for the purpose
of showing the premises to prospective tenants, or placing upon the Building
any usual or ordinary "for sale" signs, without any rebate of rent and
without any liability to Tenant for any loss of occupation or quiet enjoyment
of the Leased Premises thereby occasioned; and shall permit Landlord at any
time within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of this Lease, to place
upon the Leased Premises any usual or ordinary "to let" or "to lease" signs.
For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and
retain a key with which to unlock all of the exterior doors about the Leased
Premises.
TAXES AND INSURANCE INCREASE
17.01 Tenant shall pay before delinquency any and all taxes,
assessments, license fees, and public charges levied, assessed, or imposed
and which become payable during the Lease upon Tenant's fixtures, furniture,
appliances and personal property installed or located in the Leased Premises.
17.02 Tenant shall pay upon demand, as additional rental during the term
of this lease and any extension or renewal thereof, the amount by which all
taxes "including, but not limited to, ad valorem taxes, special assessments
and governmental charges) on the premises for each tax year exceeds all taxes
on the premises for 1985. In the event the premises are less than the entire
property assessed for such taxes for any such tax year, then the tax for any
such year applicable to the premises shall be determined by proration on the
basis that the rentable floor area of the premises bears to the rentable
floor area of the entire property assessed. If the final year of the lease
term falls to coincide with the tax year, then any excess for the tax year
during which the term ends shall be reduced by the pro rata part of such tax
year beyond the lease term. The agent's commission shall not apply to any
such additional rental resulting from the provisions of this paragraph.
17.03 Tenant agrees to pay the amount for all taxes levied upon or
measured by the rent payable hereunder, whether as a so-called sale tax,
transaction privilege tax, excise tax, or otherwise (but no income taxes
shall be payable by Tenant). Such taxes shall be due and payable at the same
time as and in addition to each payment of rent.
17.04 Commencing in the year 1985 and during each remaining year of the
lease term or any extension or renewal thereof, in the event that the
insurance premiums payable by the Landlord for fire and extended coverage on
the property are increased, whether such increase is due to an increase in
the valuation of the building, or in the applicable rate of insurance, then
Tenant agrees to pay Landlord as additional rental, Tenant's pro rata share
of the increase in said insurance premiums over the base amount paid in the
year 1985. Tenant's pro rata share shall be based on the square footage of
the premises leased to Tenant (as specified in paragraph 1.01 hereof)
compared to the total square footage of leaseable space in the entire
building. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord said increased amount within thirty
(30) days after receipt of a notice in writing from Landlord, of the increase
in said insurance premiums. If during the final year of the Lease, or any
extension or renewal thereof, the term does not coincide with the year upon
which the insurance rate is determined, the increase in premiums for the
portion of that year shall be prorated according to the number of months
during which Tenant was in possession of the Leased Premises.
17.05 The provisions hereof shall survive the termination of the Lease
or any extension or renewal thereof as referred to in the preceding
paragraphs 17.02 and 17.04.
ABANDONMENT
18.01 Tenant shall not vacate nor abandon Leased Premises at any time
during the term of this Lease; and if Tenant shall abandon, vacate or
surrender the Leased Premises, or be dispossessed by process of law, or
otherwise, any personal property belonging to Tenant and left on the Leased
Premises shall, at the option of the Landlord, be deemed abandoned.
DESTRUCTION
19.01 In the event of (a) a partial destruction of the Leased Premises
or the Building during the Lease term which requires repairs to either the
Leased Premises or the Building, or (b) the Leased Premises or the Building
being declared unsafe or unfit for occupancy by any authorized public
authority for any reason other than Tenant's act, use or occupation which
declaration requires repairs to either the Leased Premises or the Building,
Landlord shall forthwith make repairs, provided repairs can be made within
sixty (60) days under the laws and regulations of authorized public
authorities, but partial destruction (including any destruction necessary in
order to make repairs required by any declaration) shall in no way annul or
void this Lease, except that Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate
reduction of rent while such repairs are being made. The proportionate
reduction is to be based upon the extent to which. the making of repairs
shall interfere with the business carried on by Tenant in the Leased
Premises. In making repairs Landlord shall be obligated to replace only such
glazing as shall have been damaged by fire and other damaged glazing shall be
replaced by Tenant. If repairs cannot be made within sixty (60) days,
Landlord may, at its option, make same within a reasonable time, this Lease
continuing in full force and effect and the rent to be proportionately
abated, as in this paragraph provided. In the event that Landlord does not so
elect to make repairs which cannot be made within sixty (60) days, or repairs
cannot be made under current laws and regulations, this Lease may be
terminated at the option of either party. A total destruction (including any
destruction required by any authorized public authority) of either the Leased
Premises or the building shall terminate this Lease. In the event of any
dispute between Landlord and Tenant relative to the provisions of this
paragraph, they may each select an arbitrator, the two arbitrators so
selected shall select a third arbitrator and the three arbitrators so
selected shall hear and determine the controversy and their decision thereon
shall be final and binding on both Landlord and Tenant who shall bear the
cost of
such arbitration equally between them. Landlord shall not be required
to repair any property installed in the Leased Premises by Tenant. Tenant
waives any right under applicable laws inconsistent with the terms of this
paragraph and in the event of a destruction agrees to accept any offer by
Landlord to provide tenant with comparable space within the project in which
the Premises are located on the same terms as this Lease.
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
20.01 Landlord shall have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or
in part its rights and obligations in the building and property that are the
subject of this Lease. Tenant shall not assign this Lease or sublet all or
any part of the leased premises without the prior written consent of the
Landlord. In the event of any assignment or subletting, Tenant shall
nevertheless at all times, remain fully responsible and liable for the
payment of the rent and for compliance with all of its other obligations
under the terms, provisions and covenants of this Lease. Upon the occurrence
of an "event of default" as defined below, if all or any part of the Leased
Premises are then assigned or sublet, Landlord, in addition to any other
remedies provided by this Lease or provided by law, may at its option,
collect directly from the assignee or subtenant all rents becoming due to
Tenant by reason of the assignment or sublease, and Landlord shall have a
security interest in all properties on the Leased Premises to secure payment
of such sums. Any collection directly by Landlord from the assignee or
subtenant shall not be construed to constitute a novation or a release of
Tenant from the further performance of its obligations under this Lease.
INSOLVENCY OF TENANT
21.01 Either (a) the appointment of a receiver to take possession of
all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, or (b) a general assignment
by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or (c) any action taken or suffered
by Tenant under any insolvency or bankruptcy act shall, if any such
appointments, assignments or action continues for a period of thirty (30)
days, constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant, and Landlord may at its
election without notice, terminate this Lease and in that event be entitled
to immediate possession of the Leased Premises and damages as provided below.
BREACH BY TENANT
22.01 In the event of a default, Landlord besides other rights or
remedies that it may have, shall have the right to either terminate this
Lease or from time to time, without terminating this Lease relet the Leased
Premises or any part thereof for the account and in the name of Tenant or
otherwise, for any such term or terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole
discretion may deem advisable with the right to make reasonable alterations
and repairs to the Leased Premises. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as soon as
ascertained, the costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such reletting or
in making such reasonable alterations add repairs. Should such rentals
received from time-to-time from such reletting during any month be less than
that agreed to be paid during that month by Tenant hereunder, the Tenant
shall pay such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated
and paid monthly.
22.02 No such reletting of the Leased Premises by Landlord shall be
construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless a notice
of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be
decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any such
reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to
terminate this Lease for such previous breach provided it has not been cured.
Should Landlord at any time terminate this Lease for any breach, in addition
to any other remedy it may have, it may recover from Tenant all damages it
may incur by reason of such breach, including the cost of recovering the
Leased Premises, and including (1) all amounts that would have fallen due as
rent between the time of termination of this Lease and the time of judgment,
or other award, less the avails of all relettings and attornments, plus
interest on the balance at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per year; and (2)
the worth at the time of the judgment or other award, of the amount by which
the unpaid rent for the balance of the term exceeds the amount of such rental
loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; (3) any other amount
necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by
Tenant's failure to perform his obligations under this Lease or which in the
ordinary course of events would likely to result therefrom. "Worth" as used
in this provision, is computed by discounting the total at the discount rate
of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta at the time of the judgment, or award,
plus one percent (1%).
ATTORNEYS' FEES/COLLECTION CHARGES
23.01 Should Landlord be named as a defendant in any suit brought
against Tenant in connection with or arising out of Tenant's occupancy
hereunder, Tenant shall pay to Landlord its cost and expenses incurred in
such suit, including reasonable attorneys' fees. If any rent or other sums
of money owed or owing under this lease is collected by or through an
attorney at law, tenant agrees to pay fifteen percent (15%) thereof as
attorneys' fees.
CONDEMNATION
24.01 If, at any time during the term of this lease, title to the entire
Leased Premises should become vested in a public or quasi-public authority by
virtue of the exercise of expropriation, appropriation, condemnation or other
power in the nature of eminent domain, or by voluntary transfer from the
owner of the Leased Premises under threat of such a taking then this lease
shall terminate as of the time of such vesting of title, after which neither
party shall be further obligated to the other except for occurrence
antedating such taking. The same results shall follow if less than the
entire Leased Premises be thus taken, or transferred in lieu of such a
taking, but to such extent that it would be legally and commercially
impossible for Tenant to occupy the portion of the Leased Premises remaining,
and impossible for Tenant reasonable to conduct his trade or business therein.
24.02 Should there be such a partial taking or transfer in lieu thereof,
but not to such an extent as to make such continued occupancy and operation
by Tenant an impossibility, then this lease shall continue on all of its same
terms and conditions subject only to an equitable reduction in rent
proportionate to such taking.
24.03 In the event of any such taking or transfer, whether or the entire
Leased Premises, or a portion thereof, it is expressly agreed and understood
that all sums awarded, allowed or
received in connection therewith shall belong to Landlord, and any rights
otherwise vested in Tenant are hereby assigned to Landlord, and Tenant shall
have no interest in or claim to any such sums or any portion thereof, whether
the same be for the taking of the property or for damages, or otherwise.
NOTICES
25.01 All notices, statements, demands, requests, consents, approvals,
authorization, offers, agreements, appointments, or designations under this
Lease by either party to the other shall be in writing and shall be
sufficiently given and served upon the other party, if sent by certified
mail, return receipt requested, posted prepaid, and addressed as follows:
(a) To Tenant at the Leased Premises;
(b) To Landlord, addressed to Landlord at 0000 Xxxx Xxxxx,
Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000, with a copy to such other place as Landlord may from
time to time designate by notice to Tenant.
WAIVER
26.01 The waiver by Landlord of any breach of any term, covenant, or
condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term,
covenant, or condition or any subsequent breach of the same or any other
term, covenant, or conditions herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of
rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any
preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant, or condition of this Lease,
other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rental so accepted,
regardless of Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of
acceptance of such rent.
EFFECT OF HOLDING OVER
27.01 If Tenant should remain in possession of the Leased Premises after
the expiration of the Lease term and without executing a new Lease, then such
holding over shall be construed as a tenancy from month-to-month, subject to
all the conditions, provisions, and obligations of this Lease insofar as the
same are applicable to a month-to-month tenancy, except that the rent payable
pursuant to subparagraph 3.01 hereof shall be doubled.
SUBORDINATION
28.01 This Lease, at Landlord's option, shall be subordinate to any
ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or any other hypothecation for
security now or hereafter placed upon the real property of which the Premises
are a part and to any and all advances made on the security thereof and to
all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions
thereof.
28.02 Tenant agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate such
subordination or to make this Lease prior to the lien of any ground lease,
mortgage or deed of trust, as the case may be, and failing to do so within 10
days after written demand, does hereby make, constitute and irrevocably
appoint Landlord as Tenant's attorney in fact and in Tenant's
name, place and stead, to do so. If requested to do so, Tenant agrees to
attorn to any person or other entity that acquires title to the real property
encompassing the Leased Premises, whether through judicial foreclosure, sale
under power, or otherwise, and to any assignee of such person or other entity.
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE
29.01 Upon ten (10) days notice from Landlord to Tenant, Tenant shall
deliver a certificate dated as of the 1st day of the calendar month in which
such notice is received, executed by an appropriate officer, partner or
individual, and stating (i) the commencement date of this Lease; (ii) the
space occupied by Tenant hereunder; (iii) the expiration date hereof; (iv) a
description of any renewal or expansion options; (v) the amount of rental
currently and actually paid by Tenant under this lease; (vi) the nature of
any default or claimed default hereunder by Landlord and (vii) that Tenant is
not in default hereunder nor has any event occurred which with the passage of
time or the giving of notice would become a default by Tenant hereunder.

Landlord. Tenant agrees not to overburden the parking facilities and agrees
to cooperate with Landlord and other tenants in the use of parking
facilities. Landlord reserves the right in its absolute discretion to

all parking spaces are for the joint use of all tenants. No area outside of
premises shall be used by Tenant for storage without Landlord's prior written
permission. There shall be no parking permitted on any of the streets or

give notice by registered or certified mail to any beneficiary of a deed or
trust or mortgagee of a mortgage covering the Premises whose address shall
have been furnished it, and shall offer such beneficiary or mortgagee a
reasonable opportunity to cure the default, including time to obtain
possession of the Premises by power of sale or a judicial foreclosure, if
such should prove necessary to effect a cure.
