The Building is part of a larger tax parcel comprised of the entire Development (Property ID # 5041 23 01 0010) and therefore real property taxes allocated to the Building are an equitable proportion of the real property taxes for all of the land and improvements included within the tax parcel assessed (the rentable square footage of the Building divided by the rentable square footage of the Development). If Landlord contests any assessment of Taxes, then the term Taxes includes the professional fees incurred by Landlord to contest such Taxes. If Landlord prevails in the contest of any assessment of Taxes, Taxes will nonetheless be determined using the protested amount until such time as the determination of the Value Adjustment Board is final and non appealable. If the county property appraiser appeals the determination of the Value Adjustment Board, the term “Taxes” will include the reasonable costs and fees to defend such suit.

Unless you take written exception to any item within thirty days following the furnishing of the statement to you (which item must be paid in any event), such statement will be considered as final and accepted by you.

5.5Place for Payment.All Rent and other payments required to be made by you to Landlord must be payable to: Westport Business Park Associates LLP or to such other entity at such address as Landlord may specify from time to time by written notice delivered in accordance herewith. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Building is encumbered by an assignment of leases and rents made by Landlord and recorded in the Public Records of the County in which the Building is located, then upon the written demand of the lender named in such assignment of leases and rents or the successor in interest to such lender (hereinafter the “Lender”), you agree to pay all Rent and other payments required to be made by you hereunder to such Lender and Landlord agrees that you will be credited by Landlord for any payments so made.

 

5.6Accord and Satisfaction.Payment by you or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated or any other rent required to be paid by you hereunder may be, at Landlord’s sole option, deemed to be on account of the earliest due stipulated Rents or other rent, or deemed to be on account of Rent or other rent owing for the current period only, notwithstanding any instructions by or on your behalf to the contrary, which instructions will be null and void, and no endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check payment as Rent or other rent will be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord will accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or other rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease against you.

 

5.7Prohibition Against Percentage Rents Based on Net Receipts.The provisions of this Section are required to be inserted in this Lease pursuant to an Assignment of Leases and Rents entered into by Landlord in favor of the Superior Mortgagee recorded in the Public Records of the county where the Building is situated. Your obligation to pay Rent and any additional rent under this Lease is not based in any way on the income or profits derived from the Premises. If a Succession (as defined in Section 18.3) occurs, and if the Superior Mortgagee is advised by its counsel that all or a portion of the Rent or additional rent payable under this Lease is or may be deemed to be unrelated business income within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time, as in effect at that time (the “Code”), or within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code, the Superior Mortgagee may elect to amend unilaterally the calculation of the Rent or additional rent, and you agree to execute such amendment, so that none of the Rent or additional rent payable to the Superior Mortgagee under the Lease will constitute unrelated business income provided that such amendment may not increase your payment obligations or other liability under the Lease or reduce Landlord’s obligations under this Lease.

ARTICLE VI

SECURITY DEPOSIT

 

You agree to deposit the Security Deposit no later than the Commencement Date. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default by you, Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy, use the Security Deposit to the extent necessary to make good any arrears of Rent or other payments due Landlord hereunder, and any other damage, injury, expense or liability caused by your default, and you will pay to Landlord on demand the amount so applied in order to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Although the Security Deposit is the property of Landlord, any remaining balance of the Security Deposit will be returned to you by Landlord at such time after termination of this Lease when Landlord has determined that all your obligations under this Lease have been fulfilled.

 

At the time the Security Deposit is due, you will have the right to instead tender to Landlord a Letter of Credit in amount equal to the Security Deposit (or such smaller amount which, when added to the cash Security Deposit portion, equals the entire required Security deposit amount) and in such event, references in this Lease to the Security Deposit will include the Letter of Credit and following a draw by Landlord you must pay to the issuer on demand by Landlord any amounts necessary to restore the Letter of Credit to its original amount. Subject to you giving Landlord at least sixty days advance written notice and provided that no uncured Event of Default then exists and if you had previously paid to Landlord the Security Deposit, you will have the right to substitute a Letter of Credit in amount equal to the Security Deposit and upon Landlord’s acceptance of the Letter of Credit, Landlord will thereafter promptly refund the Security Deposit to you. In such event, references in this Lease to the Security Deposit will mean the Letter of Credit and following a draw you must pay to the issuer on demand by Landlord any amounts necessary to restore the Letter of Credit to its original amount. If at anytime the issuer of the Letter of Credit is declared insolvent by the FDIC or any successor in interest to the FDIC or if the issuer is placed in receivorship or files for bankruptcy protection or closes for any reason, you must immediately deliver to Landlord a replacement Letter of Credit from a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Landlord.

 

Landlord is currently holding a cash security deposit under the Prior Lease (the lease that was assigned from Childnet, Inc.) in the amount of $36,042.00 which will be transferred to this Lease as of the Commencement Date and applied to the Security Deposit. The balance of the Security Deposit in excess of the foregoing will be paid by you to Landlord with your signing of this Lease.

 

Landlord is currently holding a Letter of Credit under the Prior Lease (the January 31, 2006 lease) in the amount of $25,000.00 (the “Existing L/C”). Immediately following the Commencement Date, Landlord will return the Existing L/C to you for surrender to the issuer and the Existing L/C will no longer serve as security for your obligations under this Lease.

Landlord’s liability with respect to any defects, repairs, or maintenance or the curing of such defect for which Landlord is responsible under the provisions of this Lease will be limited to the cost of such repairs or maintenance or the curing of such defect. Except as qualified by Paragraph 7.4(a) of this Lease, the term “walls” as used herein will not include windows, glass or plate glass, doors, special store front or office entry.

ARTICLE IX

ALTERATIONS AND SIGNAGE

 

9.1Alterations.You agree that you will not make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises (including, without limitation, the roof and exterior or dividing wall penetrations except ass approved) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If Landlord consents to any alterations, additions or improvements proposed by you, you will construct the same in accordance with all governmental laws, ordinances, rules and regulations and all requirements of any applicable insurance policies and only in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Landlord. You may, without the consent of Landlord, but at your own cost and expense and in good workmanlike manner erect such shelves, bins, machinery and other trade fixtures as you may deem advisable, without altering the basic character of the Building and without overloading the floor or damaging the Building, and in each case after complying with all applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations and other requirements, provided, however, the installation of a boiler, crane or heavy machinery (even if a room for such item is designated in the Construction Drawings, which designation will not be deemed to be consent) will require separate Landlord consent as though it were an addition to the Premises . All shelves, bins, machinery and trade fixtures installed by you may be removed by you prior to the termination of this Lease if you so elect, and will be removed by the date of termination of this Lease or upon earlier vacating of the Premises if required by Landlord and upon any such removal you agree to repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal. All such removals and restoration will be accomplished in a good and workmanlike manner so as not to damage the primary structure or structural quality of the Building. The parties agree and acknowledge that you intend to submit to Landlord for review and written approval construction documents including detailed plans and specifications for intended improvements to the Building to be paid for by you (the “Renovation Plan”) (See Section 24.1 of this Lease for required Tenant’s Work). Landlord will timely review the Renovation Plan and will not unreasonably withhold delay or condition Landlord’s consent to the Renovation Plan. If Landlord fails to respond to a request for approval for the Renovation Plan within sixty days of confirmed receipt, then Landlord will be deemed to have approved the Renovation Plan.

 

 

21

 


 

 

9.2Accounting for Cost of Alterations.As soon as is practical promptly following the completion of any improvements made to the Premises by you, you will submit to Landlord an itemized statement setting forth the cost of such improvements. Within thirty days of the request of Landlord from time to time made but not more than once in any one calendar year (unless such additional request results from a change in Landlord’s insurance carrier), you will provide Landlord with a written appraisal of the then current replacement value of the improvements to the Premises made by you. Your failure to submit such written appraisal will not be an Event of Default, and instead, Landlord has the right to estimate the current replacement value of such improvements and any such estimate provided to Landlord’s insurance carrier will be binding upon you to the extent such improvements are covered under insurance required to be maintained by Landlord.

 

9.3Signs and Window Treatment.You agree that you will not install any signs upon the Building, provided, however, that you will be permitted, at your cost and expense, to install one exterior identification sign on each of Building One and Building Two in a place reasonably acceptable to Landlord provided that such sign conforms with signage criteria that Landlord has promulgated or is currently in the process of promulgating for the Development. Such sign will be removed by you upon termination of this Lease at which time you will repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal. Landlord may from time to time require you to change your identification sign to conform to a revised standard for the Building, provided Landlord pays the cost of removing and replacing such sign. Any sign installed by you will be maintained by you and kept in good condition and repair.

ARTICLE XI

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

 

11.1Requirement of Landlord Consent.Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, you do not have the right to assign, sublet, transfer or encumber this Lease, or any interest therein, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any attempted assignment, subletting, transfer or encumbrance by you in violation of the terms and covenants of this Section or this Lease will be void. If Landlord consents to an assignment or subletting, as a condition thereto which the parties agree is reasonable, you will pay to Landlord one-half of any Transfer Premium. Any assignment, subletting or other transfer of your interest in this Lease must be for an amount equal to the then fair market value of such interest. These covenants run with the land and will bind you and your successors and assigns. No assignment, subletting or other transfer, whether consented to by Landlord or not, will relieve you of your liability and obligations hereunder. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, if the Premises or any part thereof are then assigned or sublet, Landlord, in addition to any other remedies herein provided, may at Landlord’s option collect directly from such assignee or subtenant all rents becoming due to you under such assignment or sublease and apply such rent against any sums due to Landlord for you hereunder, and no such collection will be construed to constitute a novation or a release of you from the further performance of your obligations hereunder. Any assignee, sublessee or transferee of your interest in this Lease (all such assignees, sublessees and transferees being hereinafter referred to as “successors”), by assuming your obligations hereunder will assume liability to Landlord for all amounts paid to persons other than Landlord by such successors in contravention of the immediately preceding sentence.

 

11.2Effect of Unconsented to Assignment or Subletting.An assignment or subletting of your interest in this Lease without Landlord’s specific written prior consent (where Landlord’s consent is required pursuant to the terms of this Lease) will be an Event of Default curable after a ten day notice period and in addition to all rights and remedies available to Landlord under this Lease, and if Landlord does not elect to terminate the Lease, Landlord will have the right to increase the monthly base rent to the Holdover Rent amount as if you were holding over during any period of time such unconsented to assignee or subtenant is in possession of any or all of the Premises.

 

11.3Sub-Lease Termination: Merger.Unless specifically stated otherwise in writing by Landlord, the voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by you, the mutual termination or cancellation hereof, or a termination hereof by Landlord for an uncured Event of Default by you, will automatically terminate any sublease or lesser estate in the Premises, provided, however, Landlord will, in the event of any such surrender, termination or cancellation, have the option to continue any one or all of any existing subtenancies. Landlord’s failure within 10 days following any such event to make a written election to the contrary by written notice to the holder of any such lesser interest, will constitute Landlord’s election to have such event constitute the termination of such interest.

 

11.4Third Party Payments.You acknowledge that Landlord may not fully scrutinize and examine each Rent or other payment to see that the check submitted in payment is your check and not a third party check. Accordingly, if a third party check is tendered for payment of Rent or any other payment due under this Lease from you, and if such payment is accepted by Landlord, such acceptance will not confer any rights upon the third party payor or entitle the third party payor to make a claim as an assignee or subtenant of yours nor will such acceptance entitle the third party payor to occupy the Premises or create a landlord/tenant relationship between the third party payor and Landlord.

 

 

23

 


 

 

11.5Assignment to an Affiliate.Notwithstanding anything in Section 11.1 of this Lease to the contrary, you will have the right to assign (without requirement of Landlord consent and without being required to pay a Transfer Premium) your leasehold interest in the Premises to an Affiliate without Landlord’s consent provided that you: (i) give Landlord advance written notice of the assignment; (ii) give Landlord, in advance, proof that the Affiliate has all insurance in place required to be maintained under this Lease including naming Landlord as an additional insured; (iii) give Landlord, in advance, a fully executed assignment and assumption of lease document reasonably acceptable to Landlord including an acknowledgment that such assignment does not release you from liability; and (iv) pay Landlord, in advance, a non refundable administrative charge payment of $750.00 to reimburse Landlord for the administrative and legal costs Landlord can reasonably be expected to incur regarding such assignment.

 

11.6Subletting to an Affiliate.Notwithstanding anything in Section 11.1 of this Lease to the contrary, you will have the right to sublet all or a portion of the Premises to an Affiliate without Landlord’s consent provided that you (i) give Landlord advance written notice of the subletting; (ii) give Landlord, in advance, proof that the Affiliate has all insurance in place required to be maintained under this Lease including naming Landlord as an additional insured; (iii) give Landlord, in advance, a fully executed sublease reasonably acceptable to Landlord; and (iv) pay Landlord, in advance, a non refundable administrative charge payment of $750.00 to reimburse Landlord for the administrative and legal costs Landlord can reasonably be expected to incur regarding such subletting.

During the term of this Lease, Landlord and you will carry and maintain the following types of insurance and in the amounts specified in this Article, all as follows:

 

12.1Fire and Casualty Damage.Landlord agrees to maintain insurance covering the Development in an amount not less than full insurable value (subject to any applicable deductible) insuring against loss or damage by fire and other hazards included within the term “special causes of loss”, “all risk” or “extended coverage” and against such other hazards as Landlord may deem advisable or which a Superior Mortgagee requires. Such insurance will not, however, insure your personal property. Subject to the provisions of subparagraph 13.1(c) below, such insurance will be for the sole benefit of Landlord and under its sole control.

 

12.2Personal Property.You will procure and maintain throughout the term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance, at your sole cost and expense, insuring all personal property situated within the Premises against loss or damage by fire and other hazards included within the term “special causes of loss”, “all risk” or “extended coverage” and against such other hazards as Landlord may reasonably require in the full insurable value.

 

 

24

 


 

 

12.3Tenant’s Liability Insurance.You will procure and maintain throughout the term of the Lease a policy or policies of insurance, at your sole cost and expense, insuring both Landlord and you (and, if requested by Landlord, insuring the Superior Mortgagee) against all claims, demands or actions arising out of or in connection with: (i) the Premises; (ii) the condition of the Premises; (iii) your operations in and maintenance and use of the Premises; and (iv) your liability assumed under this Lease, the limits of such policy or policies to be in the amount of not less than $2,000,000 per occurrence in respect to injury to persons (including death), and in the amount of not less than $250,000 per occurrence in respect to property damage or destruction, including loss of use thereof. If Landlord has also obtained comprehensive liability insurance, then the insurance required to be maintained by you pursuant to this Section will be primary and non contributing with respect to any policies carried by Landlord and any coverage carried by Landlord will be excess insurance.

 

12.4Workers’ Compensation and Employer Liability Insurance.You will procure and maintain throughout the term of the Lease a policy or policies of insurance, at your sole cost and expense, all workers’ compensation coverage as required by law and employer’s liability insurance.

 

12.5Proof of Insurance.Insurance required to be procured and maintained by you pursuant to this Article will be procured by you from responsible insurance companies reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. Certificate(s) of insurance reasonably acceptable to Landlord evidencing your compliance with the provisions of Sections 12.2, 12.3 and 12.4 will be delivered to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date. Not less than fifteen days prior to the expiration date of any such policies, updated certificate(s) of insurance will be delivered to Landlord. Such policies will further provide that not less than thirty days written notice will be given to Landlord before such policy may be canceled or changed to reduce insurance provided thereby.

 

12.6Waiver of Claims.To the maximum extent permitted by law, Landlord and you each hereby waives any claim against the other which is insurable under the property insurance required to be carried under Sections 12.1 and 12.2 of this Lease, irrespective of whether Landlord or you actually maintains such insurance. Notwithstanding the preceding, if the damage or destruction to the Building was caused by your negligence, then you agree, upon demand, to reimburse Landlord for the deductible expended by Landlord under Landlord’s policy of insurance (but not in excess of $20,000) to repair or rebuild the Building or part thereof after such damage or destruction. You and the Landlord each agree to request the insurance carriers to include in the policies of property insurance required to be carried under Sections 12.1 and 12.2 of this Lease, a waiver of subrogation provision consistent with the foregoing waiver of claims.

ARTICLE XIII

CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

 

13.1Damage or Destruction.(a)If the Building should be totally destroyed by fire, tornado or other casualty, or if the Building should be so damaged thereby that rebuilding or repairs cannot in Landlord’s reasonable estimation be completed within the Restoration Period, this Lease will terminate and the Rent will abate during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective upon the date of the occurrence of such damage.

 

(b)If the Building should be damaged by any peril covered by insurance to be provided by Landlord under Section 12.1 of this Lease, but only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can in Landlord’s estimation be completed within the Restoration Period, this Lease will not terminate, and Landlord will at its sole cost and expense thereupon proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild and repair the Building to substantially the condition in which it existed prior to such damage (including damage to plat glass caused by windstorm) , except that Landlord will not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the partitions, fixtures, additions and other improvements which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by you except that Landlord may elect not to rebuild if such damage occurs during the last year of the term of the Lease exclusive of any option which is unexercised at the time of such damage. If the Premises are untenantable in whole or in part following such damage, the Rent payable hereunder during the period in which they are untenantable will be reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the circumstances. If Landlord should fail to complete the repairs and rebuilding within the Restoration Period, you may, at your option, terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Landlord as your exclusive remedy, whereupon all rights and or obligations hereunder will cease and terminate. Should construction be delayed because of a Force Majeure Event, the Restoration Period will be extended for the time Landlord is so delayed.

 

(c)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a Superior Mortgagee requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to the indebtedness secured by a mortgage encumbering the Building, then Landlord will have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to you within fifteen days after such requirement is made by the Superior Mortgagee, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder will cease and terminate.

 

13.2Condemnation.If the whole or any substantial part of the Premises or Building should be taken for any public or quasi-public use under governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, this Lease will terminate effective when the legal taking or private purchase in lieu thereof occurs. If less than the whole or less than a substantial part of the Premises or Building is thus taken or sold, Landlord may nonetheless terminate this Lease by giving written notice to you in which event this Lease will terminate effective when the legal taking or private purchase in lieu thereof occurs. If this Lease is not terminated upon such taking or private sale in lieu thereof, the Rent payable hereunder during the unexpired portion of this Lease will be reduced to such extent as may be fair and reasonable under all of the circumstances and Landlord will undertake to restore the Premises to a condition suitable for your use, as near to the condition thereof immediately prior to such taking as is reasonably feasible under all the circumstances. All amounts awarded from the legal taking or private purchase in lieu thereof will belong to Landlord and you will not be entitled to and you expressly waive any claim to any of such proceeds, provided, however, you will be entitled to pursue a separate claim for your trade fixtures paid for by you and for relocation expenses.

ARTICLE XIV

LANDLORD’S LIABILITY

 

14.1Liability and Indemnification.(a)If the waiver of claims provisions of Section 12.6 of this Lease are not applicable, Landlord will nonetheless not be liable to you for any damage to your property on or about the Premises unless caused by or resulting from the gross negligence or intentional wrongful act of Landlord or its agents, servants or employees in the operation or maintenance of the Premises or the Development, subject to the doctrine of comparative negligence in the event of contributory negligence on your part or on the part of your agents, employees or servants. In no case will a Superior Mortgagee be liable to you for injury, damage or loss caused by Landlord, regardless of the cause. In those cases specified above where Landlord is liable to you for damage to your property, Landlord’s liability is limited to the replacement value of the property damaged. In no case will Landlord be liable to you for incidental or consequential damages or for lost profits.

 

(b)You agree to indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord harmless from and against all claims, actions, damages, liability, and expenses which may arise in connection with bodily injury or loss of life to persons while at the Premises if the injury or loss of life was occasioned totally or in part by any negligent or wrongful intentional act by you or by your agents, contractors, servants or employees. Your indemnification obligation under this paragraph will not, however, apply to the extent the injury or loss of life was due to the negligent or wrongful intentional act of Landlord.

 

(c)You agree to indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord harmless from and against all claims, actions, damages, liability, and expenses which may arise in connection with damage to the property of third persons if the property is damaged while at the Premises and if the damage was occasioned totally or in part by any negligent or wrongful intentional act by you or by your agents, contractors, servants or employees. Your indemnification obligation under this paragraph will not, however, apply to the extent the damage to third persons property was due to the negligent or wrongful intentional act of Landlord.

 

(d)Subject to the limitations set forth herein, Landlord agrees to indemnify you and hold you harmless from and against all claims, actions, damages, liability, and expenses which may arise in connection with bodily injury or loss of life to persons to the extent the injury or loss of life was occasioned by the negligent or wrongful intentional act by a Landlord Party. Landlord’s indemnification obligation pursuant to this paragraph (i) will not apply to the extent the injury or loss of life was due to your negligent or wrongful intentional act (including the negligent or wrongful intentional act of your agents, contractors, or employees), (ii) will not mean that Landlord will be required to defend you if your defense is available under your comprehensive general liability insurance policy or any other insurance maintained by you, and (iii) will be limited in amount to the deductible under your policies of insurance if your comprehensive general liability insurance or other policy of insurance hereunder would provide coverage and indemnity to you.

 

 

27

 


 

 

14.2Tenant Remedies (Includes Limited Self Help Remedy).In the event of a Landlord Default, your exclusive remedy will be an action for damages or for specific performance or other injunctive relief if specific performance or injunctive relief is a commercially reasonable remedy given the circumstances. Notwithstanding the preceding, if the Landlord Default results from Landlord’s failure to comply with Landlord’s maintenance and repair obligations under Section 8.1 of this Lease, then upon advance written notice received from you, you may perform such obligations yourself whereupon Landlord will be required to reimburse to you, within ten days of Landlord’s receipt of written demand, for your actual cost to perform the obligation and Landlord’s failure to timely make the reimbursement payment will be a Landlord Default. Nothing contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Lease will be construed to grant to you a set off right.

 

14.3Limitation on Liability.If Landlord fails to perform any covenant, term or condition of this Lease upon Landlord’s part to be performed, and if as a consequence of such default you recover a money judgment against Landlord, such judgment may be satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received upon execution of such judgment and levied thereon against the right, title and interest of Landlord in the Building and out of the rents or other income from the Building receivable by Landlord, or out of the consideration received by Landlord from the sale or other disposition of all or any part of Landlord’s right, title and interest in the Building including insurance and condemnation proceeds, subject, nevertheless, to the rights of a Superior Mortgagee, and neither Landlord nor any of the stockholders, partners or members comprising the entity which is Landlord herein will be liable for any deficiency.

 

ARTICLE XV

TENANT DEFAULT

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and in addition to all rights or remedies afforded to Landlord elsewhere in this Lease or at law or in equity, Landlord will have the following rights and remedies:

 

15.1Retake Possession of the Premises and or Termination.Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord will have the immediate right to reenter the Premises, either by summary proceedings or without summary proceedings if such reentry can be done peaceably, and to disposses you and all other occupants from the Premises and remove and dispose of all property situated within the Premises, or at Landlord’s election, to store such property in a public warehouse or elsewhere at your cost and for your account, all without any service of notice of intention to reenter and with or without resort to legal process (which requirement of legal process is hereby waived by you as long as such reentry can be done peaceably) and without Landlord being deemed guilty of trespass or becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby. Upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default, Landlord will also have the right, at its option, in addition to and not in limitation of any other right or remedy available under this Lease or at law or in equity, to terminate this Lease by giving you notice of cancellation and upon the mailing of such notice, this Lease and the Term will end and expire as fully and completely as if the date of said notice were the date herein definitely fixed for the end and expiration of this Lease and the Term and thereupon, unless Landlord has previously elected to reenter the Premises, Landlord will have the immediate right of reentry in the manner aforesaid, and you and all other occupants will quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord but you will remain liable to Landlord as set forth herein. No reentry or taking possession of the Premises or acceptance of keys to the Premises voluntarily given by you following an Event of Default, will be construed as an election on the part of Landlord to terminate this Lease unless written notice of such intention be given by Landlord to you or unless the termination thereof results as a matter of law or be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any retaking of possession for your account or reletting for your account, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease.

 

 

28

 


 

 

15.2Reletting of the Premises.If by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Term ends before the date originally fixed herein, or if by reason of an Event of Default Landlord retook possession of the Premises without an early termination of the Lease and the Term, or if you are ejected, dispossessed, or removed from the Premises by summary proceedings or in any other manner as a result of an Event of Default, Landlord at any time thereafter may relet all or a part of the Premises, either in the name of Landlord or as agent for you, for a term or terms which, at Landlord’s option may be less than or exceed the period of the remainder of the Term or which otherwise would have constituted the balance of the Term had such Term not been sooner terminated and grant concessions and free Rent. Landlord will in no event be liable in any way for Landlord’s failure to relet the Premises or to collect any rent receivable from such reletting. Landlord is hereby authorized and empowered to make such repairs, alterations, subdivisions or other preparations for the reletting of the Premises as Landlord deems fit, advisable and necessary, without in any way releasing you from any liability hereunder. Landlord will receive the rents from such reletting and apply the same, first, to the payment of any monetary obligation due under this Lease other than Rent, second to the payment of any expenses as Landlord may have incurred in connection with reentering, ejecting removing, dispossessing, reletting, altering, repairing, subdividing or otherwise preparing the Premises for reletting, including reasonable brokerage and reasonable attorney fees, and the residue, if any, Landlord will apply to your fulfillment of the terms, conditions and covenants hereunder and you waive any right to the surplus, if any. The residue, if any, is herein referred to as the “net rents received by Landlord from reletting”.

 

15.3Damages for Rent.In addition to any damages for unpaid Rent and any additional rent that accrues up until the time that Landlord regains possession of the Premises, you will be liable for and will pay to Landlord as damages any deficiency between the Rent reserved herein and the net rents received by Landlord from reletting, if any, for each month of the period which otherwise would have constituted the balance of the Term. You will pay such deficiency on an accelerated basis as provided for herein or, at Landlord’s sole option, in monthly installments on the due date for such Rent installment as specified in this Lease, and any suit or proceeding brought to collect the deficiency for any month, either during the Term or after any termination thereof, will not prejudice or preclude in any way the rights of Landlord to collect the deficiency for any subsequent month by a similar suit or proceeding. Unless Landlord elects to forego the acceleration of Rent, accelerated Rent will be calculated as the present value of the Rent due for the remainder of the Term, or, in the case of a termination, which would have been due for the remainder of the Term had such Term not been sooner terminated as a result of the Event of Default. For these purposes, the discount rate to be used for purposes of calculating the present value will be the average rate established and announced for United States Treasury Bills, with a maturity of thirteen weeks at the four weekly auctions held immediately prior to the date that Landlord obtained possession of the Premises. Landlord will, however, account to you for the net rents received by Landlord from reletting on a monthly basis only if you have paid to Landlord the damages recoverable by Landlord from you as provided for herein and only to the extent of such payments.

 

 

29

 


 

 

15.4Landlord’s Self Help Remedy.If an Event of Default occurs and if Landlord elects not to reenter the Premises to take possession, then notwithstanding, Landlord will have the right to enter upon the Premises, without being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages therefore, and do whatever you were obligated to do under the terms of this Lease to cure the Event of Default, and you agree to reimburse Landlord on demand for any expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with your obligations under this Lease, and you further agree that Landlord will not be liable for any damages resulting to you from such action, whether caused by the negligence of Landlord or otherwise.

 

15.5Late Charges/NSF Checks.If you fail to pay any installment of Rent hereunder as when such installment is due, or if you fail to pay any additional rent or any other payment required to be made by you to Landlord hereunder, then to help defray the additional cost to Landlord for processing such late payment, you agree to pay to Landlord a late charge in an amount equal to five percent of such installment or payment. The provision for such late charge is in addition to all of Landlord’s other rights and remedies hereunder or at law and will not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord’s remedies in any manner. If your check, given to Landlord in payment, is returned by the bank for non-payment, you agree to pay all expenses incurred by Landlord as a result thereof. Notwithstanding, as to the first late payment only occurring during any one calendar year, the late charge will not be assessed if payment is made within five days of your receipt (or delivery refused) of written notice of non payment. Late charges (or Landlord’s agreement to abate the late charge as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence) will not be deemed consent by Landlord to late payments, nor a waiver of Landlord’s right to insist upon timely payments at any time, nor a waiver of any remedies to which Landlord is entitled as a result of the late payment of Rent or any other payments required to be made pursuant to this Lease.

 

15.6Waiver.No waiver by Landlord of an Event of Default by you will be deemed a waiver of any other, term, covenant or condition hereof, or of any subsequent Event of Default by you of the same or any other term, covenant or condition hereof. If Landlord executes this Lease and delivers a counterpart original to you prior to your tender of any payments required hereunder including prepaid Rent and Security Deposit, such action will not be deemed to be a waiver of the requirement for immediate payment of the prepaid Rent and Security Deposit and Landlord will have the right to declare an immediate Event of Default for your failure to tender the prepaid Rent and Security Deposit if not paid within three days of receipt of demand from Landlord (which demand may be made in the transmittal letter or transmittal memo enclosing the executed counterpart of the Lease).

ARTICLE XVI

ARTICLE XVIII

ESTOPPEL STATEMENT, SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT

 

18.1Estoppel Statement.You will, without charge, at any time and from time to time, within ten days after receipt by you of written request made by Landlord or made by any Superior Mortgagee (or prospective Superior Mortgagee), deliver a duly executed and acknowledged certificate or statement to the party requesting said certificate or statement or to any other person, firm, corporation or other entity designated by Landlord, certifying: (a) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or, if there has been any modification, that the same is in full force and effect as modified, and stating any such modification; (b) the Commencement Date and Expiration Date of this Lease; (c) that Rent is paid currently without any offset or defense thereto; (d) the dates to which Rent has been paid, and the amount of Rent, if any, paid in advance; (e) whether or not there is then existing any claim of Landlord’s default hereunder and, if so, specifying the nature thereof; and (f) any other information relating to the status of this Lease as may be reasonably requested; provided that, in fact, such facts are accurate and ascertainable.

 

18.2Subordination.You are accepting this Lease subject and subordinate to any mortgage and/or deed of trust now or at any time hereafter constituting a lien or charge upon the Building or the Premises, without the necessity of any act or execution of any additional instrument of subordination; provided, however, that if the mortgagee, trustee, or holder of any such mortgage or deed of trust elects to have your interest in this Lease superior to any such instrument, then by notice to you from such mortgagee, trustee or holder, this Lease will be deemed superior to such lien, whether this Lease was executed before or after said mortgage or deed of trust. You will at any time within ten days of demand, execute any instruments, releases or other documents which may be required by any Superior Mortgagee for the purpose of evidencing the subjection and subordination of this Lease to the lien of any such mortgage or for the purpose of evidencing the superiority of this Lease to the lien of any such mortgage as may be the case.

 

 

31

 


 

 

18.3Attornment.If a Superior Mortgagee or any other party succeeds to the interest of Landlord under the Lease in any manner, including but not limited to foreclosure, exercise of any power of sale, succession by deed in lieu or other conveyance (a “Succession”), then upon written notice from the Superior Mortgagee or other party succeeding to the interest of Landlord under the Lease (the “New Landlord”), you will attorn to and be bound to the New Landlord upon such Succession and will recognize the New Landlord as the landlord under the Lease. Such attornment is effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instrument. Upon the request of the New Landlord, you will sign and deliver any instruments reasonably requested to evidence such attornment. You waive the provisions of any statute or rule of law, now or hereafter in effect, which may give or purport to give you any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect the Lease and your obligations hereunder as a result of any such Succession. Upon any Succession, the New Landlord will not be (a) liable for any act or omission of the Landlord under the Lease occurring prior to the Succession, (b) subject to any offsets or defenses which you may have against Landlord arising or occurring prior to the Succession, or (c) bound by any rent or additional rent which you may have paid to Landlord for more than the current month.

 

18.4Superior Mortgagee Cure Rights.No act or failure to act on the part of Landlord which would entitle you, under the express terms of this Lease or by law, to be relieved of your obligations under this Lease or to terminate this Lease, will result in a release of such obligations or a termination of this Lease unless: (i) You have given notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Superior Mortgagee; and (ii) you offer the Superior Mortgagee an opportunity to cure such default within thirty days next following receipt of such notice, or if such default cannot be cured within thirty days, to commence to cure the default within the thirty day period and to proceed diligently thereafter to cure the default.

 

18.5Remedies.Your failure to execute any statements or instruments necessary or desirable to effectuate the foregoing provisions of this Article within the time limits specified in this Article (which time limits are not subject to any grace period), will constitute an Event of Default. In the event of such failure, Landlord, in addition to any other rights or remedies it might have, will have the right by not less than ten days’ notice to you to declare this Lease terminated and the term ended, in which event this Lease will cease and terminate on the date specified in such notice with the same force and effect as though the date set forth in such notice were the date originally set forth herein and fixed for the expiration of the term; upon such termination you will vacate and surrender the Premises, but will remain liable for all obligations arising during the original stated term as provided in this Lease by reason of said Event of Default.

ARTICLE XIX

MECHANICS LIENS

 

You (the Tenant) shall have no authority, express or implied, to create or place any lien or encumbrance of any kind or nature whatsoever upon, or in any manner to bind the interests of Landlord in the Premises or to charge the rentals payable hereunder for any claim in favor of any person dealing with you, including those who may furnish materials or perform labor for any construction or repairs and nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as a consent on the part of the Landlord to subject the estate of the Landlord to liability under the Construction Lien Law of the State of Florida, it being expressly understood that the Landlord’s estate shall not be subject to liens for improvements made by you and each such claim shall affect and each such lien shall attach to, if at all, only the leasehold interest granted to you by this instrument. You covenant and agree that you will pay or cause to be paid all sums legally due and payable by you on account of any labor performed or materials furnished in connection with any work performed on the Premises on which any lien is or can be validly and legally asserted against its leasehold interest in the Premises or the improvements thereon and that you will save and hold Landlord harmless from any and all loss, cost or expense based on or arising out of asserted claims or liens against the leasehold estate or against the right, title and interest of the Landlord in the Premises or under the terms of this Lease. You agree to give Landlord immediate written notice if any lien or encumbrance is placed on the Premises.

 

Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease relating to improvements, additions, alterations, repairs or reconstruction of or to the Premises, you and the Landlord each agree and confirm that: (i) Landlord has not consented nor will Landlord ever consent to the furnishing of any labor or materials to the Premises that would or may result in any mechanic’s or materialman’s lien attaching to Landlord’s interest in the Premises; (ii) you are not the agent of Landlord for the purposes of any such improvements, additions, alterations, repairs or reconstruction; and (iii) except as expressly provided herein, Landlord has retained no control over the manner in which any such improvements, additions, alterations, repairs or reconstruction are accomplished, and has made no agreement to make or be responsible for any payment to or for the benefit of any person furnishing labor or materials in connection therewith. No one furnishing labor or materials to or for your account shall be entitled to claim any lien against the interest of Landlord in the Premises and such entities shall look solely to you and your leasehold interest under this Lease for the satisfaction of any such claims.

 

You shall be liable for all taxes levied or assessed against personal property, furniture or fixtures placed by you in the Premises. If any such taxes for which you are liable are levied or assessed against Landlord or Landlord’s property and if Landlord elects to pay the same or if the assessed value of Landlord’s property is increased by inclusion of personal property, furniture or fixtures placed by you in the Premises, and Landlord elects to pay the taxes based on such increase, you shall pay to Landlord upon demand that part of such taxes.

Nothing herein contained will give any other tenant in the Building any enforceable rights either against Landlord or you as a result of the covenants and obligations of either party set forth herein.

21.4This Lease constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between you and the Landlord with respect to the subject matter of this Lease, and contains all of the covenants and agreements of Landlord and you with respect thereto. You and the Landlord each acknowledge that no representations, inducements, promises or agreements, oral or written, have been made by Landlord or you, or anyone acting on behalf of Landlord or you, which are not contained herein, and any prior agreements, promises, negotiations, or representations not expressly set forth in this Lease are of no force or effect. You have not relied upon any representation of Landlord or its agents, other than items contained in this Lease, as an inducement to enter into this Lease. No alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Lease will be binding upon Landlord or you unless reduced to writing and signed by each party (which signatures may be by facsimile transmission and such facsimile transmission will be deemed to be an original as to any such alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Lease).

 

21.5All of your obligations not fully performed as of the expiration or earlier termination of the term of this Lease will survive the expiration or earlier termination of the term, including without limitation, all payment obligations with respect to Operating Costs and all obligations concerning the condition of the Premises. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the term, and prior to you vacating the Premises, you will pay to Landlord any amount reasonably estimated by Landlord as necessary to put the Premises, including without limitation heating and air conditioning systems and equipment therein, in its Exit Condition. Any work required to be done by you prior to your vacation of the Premises which has not been completed upon such vacation, will be completed by Landlord and billed to you at cost, which cost may include any construction management fee required to be paid by Landlord to Landlord’s property manager. You will also, prior to vacating the Premises, pay to Landlord the amount, as estimated by Landlord, of your obligation hereunder for Operating Costs. All such amounts will be used and held by Landlord for payment of your obligations hereunder, with you being liable for any additional costs therefore upon demand by Landlord, or with any excess to be returned to you after all such obligations have been determined and satisfied, as the case may be.

 

21.6If any clause, provision or portion of this Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, such event will not affect, impair or render invalid or unenforceable the remainder of this Lease nor any other clause, phrase, provision or portion hereof, nor will it affect the application of any clause, phrase, provision or portion hereof to other persons or circumstances, and it is also the intention of the parties to this Lease that in lieu of each such phrase, provision or portion of this Lease that is invalid or unenforceable, there be added as a part of this Lease, a clause, phrase, provision or portion which is valid.

Landlord will not be bound hereby until its delivery to you of an executed copy hereof signed by Landlord, already having been signed by you, and until such delivery Landlord reserves the right to exhibit and lease the Premises to other prospective tenants. Execution of this Lease by you will be irrevocable for a period of fifteen business days immediately following delivery to Landlord. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary Landlord may withhold delivery of possession of the Premises from you until such time as you have delivered to Landlord the certificate(s) of insurance required to be provided by you hereunder.

 

21.8Time is of the essence of this Lease. However, whenever a period of time is herein prescribed for the taking of any action by Landlord or you, then Landlord or you, as applicable, will not be liable or responsible for, and there will be excluded from the computation of such period of time, any delays due to a Force Majeure Event. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence will not, however, excuse performance or extend the due date of the payment of any Rent or any other payment required to be made pursuant to this Lease nor will the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence extend the time period during which any right granted under this Lease, if any, to extend, terminate early or expand may be exercised.

21.13This Lease may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which together constitutes one and the same document.

 

21.14The parties acknowledge that each has read this Lease, consulted with an attorney regarding its terms, and agrees with its terms as though that party had drafted this Lease itself. The parties agree that although this Lease was, by necessity, printed and assembled by Landlord and drafted by Landlord’s attorney, this Lease reflects the terms as agreed to by the parties and that if a term or provision of this Lease is considered ambiguous, neither party will be considered the draft person for the purpose of causing the terms of this Lease to be construed against that party.

24.2Landlord’s Obligation to Install Accordion Hurricane Shutters at Building Two.As soon as is practical immediately following the Commencement Date, Landlord, at Landlord’s cost and expense, will install an accordion hurricane shutter system (substantially similar to the specifications attached hereto as Schedule 24.2) for the protection of the exterior glass windows and exterior glass doors of Building Two. Landlord will not be liable for damages to your property or incidental and consequential damages if a windstorm occurs prior to the completion of the installation or if once installed, the hurricane shutters do not work as installed. Within fourteen days immediately following the Commencement Date, Landlord will enter into a contract with a vendor for the purchase of and installation of the hurricane shutter system (including payment of any deposit required pursuant to such contract) and thereafter Landlord will cause the vendor to diligently pursue the issuance of the permit for the installation and the diligent installation of the system. Landlord will provide you with a copy of the signed contract with the vendor once signed. If Landlord fails to enter into the vendor contract within the fourteen day period, then until such time as Landlord actually enters into such contract, you will have the right to enter into a contract yourself with a vendor selected by you whereupon Landlord will be required to reimburse to you, within ten days of Landlord’s receipt of written demand, for your actual payments made under such vendor contract and Landlord’s failure to timely make the reimbursement payment will be a Landlord Default. Nothing contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Lease will be construed to grant to you a set off right.

 

24.3Architectural Drawing Allowance.Within thirty days of a request for reimbursement made by you including documentation as to amount, Landlord will reimburse you for your out of pocket costs incurred for the preparation of space plans and permit drawings for the Building Two improvements to be made by you, provided, however, Landlord’s maximum reimbursement obligation pursuant to this Section may not exceed $9,400.00 and instead, any architectural costs in excess of $9,400.00 will be paid for by you without contribution by Landlord.

24.6 Right of First Offer on Previously Leased Building Three Space. If previously leased space within Building Three (the third building within the Development) becomes vacant or is scheduled to become vacant and if there is at least three years remaining on the term of this Lease (exclusive of any unexercised option to extend), and subject to similar rights that may have been granted to tenants of Building Three under leases dated earlier than the Effective Date, Landlord agrees to notify you that the space is vacant or will become vacant and Landlord agrees to offer to Lease such space to you in as-is condition. You shall have thirty days from your receipt of the offer to advise Landlord whether you desire to lease the offered space. Failure to respond within the thirty day period will be deemed to be an irrevocable waiver of the right to exercise such offer, time being of the essence, in which event Landlord will be free to lease the vacant space upon such terms and conditions as Landlord desires. The foregoing notwithstanding, if Landlord has received a bona fide offer from a third party to lease the vacant space, then Landlord will have the right to shorten the foregoing thirty day required response period to ten days immediately following your receipt (or delivery refused) of Landlord’s written notice to you advising you that Landlord has received such bona fide offer. If you timely exercise the right of first offer granted herein with respect to such offered space, then an amendment to this Lease will be executed by the parties amending the Lease to include the offered space as part of the Premises for the remainder of the Lease term except that the initial base rental rate for the space shall be Market Rent with three percent (3%) annual escalations. Your obligation to pay Rent for the offered space will begin on the date such offered space is delivered to you. If Landlord breaches the provisions of this Lease by reason of Landlord’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section, and if such breach resulted from Landlord’s negligent (as opposed to intentional2) disregard of this provision, then damages recoverable by you against Landlord for Landlord’s breach of this Section will be limited to a maximum of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000).

 

Each and every term and provision of this Lease and all exhibits attached hereto, is agreed to by you, the Tenant, on August 16, 2010.
