PART II

 

1. PREMISES.

Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, for the Term and on the conditions herein provided, the Premises described in Section 8 of Part I hereof, subject, however, to the Permitted Encumbrances (but only to the extent provided in the proviso to the definition of “Permitted Encumbrances”).

 

2. NO MERGER OF TITLE.

There shall be no merger of this Lease nor of the leasehold estate created hereby with the fee estate in or ownership of the Premises by reason of the fact that the same entity may acquire or hold or own (i) this Lease or such leasehold estate or any interest therein and (ii) the fee estate, leasehold estate or ownership of any of the Premises or any interest therein. No such merger shall occur unless and until all persons having any interest in (x) this Lease or such leasehold estate and (y) the fee estate and leasehold estate in any of the Premises including, without limitation, Mortgagee’s interest therein, shall join in a written, recorded instrument effecting such merger.

 

3. TERM RENEWAL OPTION.

The initial Lease Term and each Renewal Term (as defined herein) shall be subject to extension in accordance with the following provisions:

(a) So long as no Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) has occurred and is then continuing, Tenant shall have the option (each, a “Renewal Option”) to renew the initial Lease Term with respect to all Properties for up to two (2) consecutive additional terms of five (5) years each and a third consecutive additional term of four (4) years and eleven (11) months (each, a “Renewal Term”), commencing on the day immediately following the expiration date of the initial Lease Term or the then-expiring Renewal Term, as applicable. Tenant shall exercise each Renewal Option by giving Landlord written notice of its election to exercise such Renewal Option no later than the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration date of the initial Lease Term or the then-expiring Renewal Term, as applicable.

(b) If Tenant timely and properly exercises any Renewal Option in accordance with the provisions of clause (a) of this Section 3 of Part II above, the Fixed Rent (as hereinafter defined) applicable to the applicable Renewal Term shall be the Fair Market Rental Value, determined as set forth herein. The term “Fair Market Rental Value” shall mean the aggregate fair market rental value for all of the Properties determined as of the first day of the applicable Renewal Term, taking into consideration (1) the annual rental rates then being charged in the applicable submarkets in which the Properties are located for comparable buildings for a new lease of comparable size and condition, including market annual or periodic escalations, if any, and (2) all relevant factors, including but not limited to the creditworthiness of the tenant, amenities, location, submarkets, duration of term, commissions, operating costs, tenant improvements, and other incentives, if any. Landlord and Tenant shall endeavor, in good faith, to agree upon a Fair Market Rental Value. If Landlord and Tenant shall be unable to agree upon the Fair Market Rental Value by the date which is thirty (30) days after the giving of the election notice, then and in such event, each party shall within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of such 30-day period appoint an MAI appraiser, licensed in the State of California and specializing in the valuation of commercial real estate of the type subject to this Lease and rents in the applicable submarkets in which the Properties are located for properties of similar age, size, condition and location, and with at least ten (10) years experience as

 

4


such an appraiser, which appraisers shall each determine the Fair Market Rental Value within fifteen (15) days after their appointment. In the event the MAI appraisers chosen by the parties (x) agree on the applicable Fair Market Rental Value, then such value shall be the Fixed Rent for the applicable Renewal Term in accordance with the provisions above, or (y) are unable to agree on the Fair Market Rental Value, then the applicable MAI appraisers shall, within five (5) days after the conclusion of the fifteen (15) day period after the appointment date for the later-appointed appraiser, prepare separate written reports of their determinations and appoint a mutually acceptable third (3rd) similarly qualified MAI appraiser to determine the Fair Market Rental Value. If a third (3rd) similarly qualified appraiser is not appointed within the time specified above, either Landlord or Tenant may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint such third (3rd) similarly qualified MAI appraiser. Such third (3rd) MAI appraiser shall within five (5) days after his or her appointment, review the reports prepared by the first two (2) MAI appraisers, conduct such additional analysis as may be appropriate, and make a determination of its opinion of the Fair Market Rental Value. In such event, the Fair Market Rental Value shall equal the average of the two (2) determinations of the three (3) appraisals which are closest in number to each other, without regard to the appraisal which is furthermost in number from the other two (2) appraisals, and such value shall be the Fixed Rent for the applicable Renewal Term in accordance with provisions above. The determination of Fair Market Rental Value pursuant to the terms of this clause (b) shall be final, binding, and conclusive on the parties hereto. Landlord and Tenant shall each bear the cost of any MAI appraiser appointed by such party pursuant to the terms of this clause (b) and shall equally share the cost of any third (3rd) MAI appraiser appointed pursuant to the terms of this clause (b).

(c) If Tenant exercises any Renewal Option, Landlord and Tenant shall execute and deliver an amendment to this Lease reflecting the applicable Fixed Rent during the applicable Renewal Term; provided, any such Fixed Rent determined for a Renewal Term in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3 of Part II shall be effective for purposes of this Lease during such Renewal Term regardless of the date of execution of any such amendment.

 

4. USE.

Tenant may use the Premises for general retail and distribution use and ancillary uses thereof or for any other lawful purpose so long as such other lawful purpose would not (i) have a material adverse effect on the value of the Premises, (ii) materially increase (when compared to similar space) the likelihood that Tenant, Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagee would incur liability under any Environmental Laws (as hereinafter defined), or (iii) result in or give rise to any material environmental deterioration or degradation of the Premises. In no event shall any of the Premises be used for any purpose which shall violate any of the provisions of any Permitted Encumbrance or any covenants, restrictions or agreements hereafter created by or consented to by Tenant applicable to the Premises; provided, that this sentence shall not apply with respect to any Permitted Encumbrance in effect on the Lease Commencement Date so long as (i) the title insurance policy obtained by Landlord in connection with its purchase of the Premises (and the Mortgagee’s policy of title insurance issued in connection with the Loan) contains affirmative insurance against any loss arising due to a violation of such Permitted Encumbrance or if such affirmative title insurance is subsequently provided to Landlord and Mortgagee at Tenant’s cost with respect to such Permitted Encumbrance on terms and conditions satisfactory to Landlord and Mortgagee in their sole discretion, and (ii) violation of such Permitted Encumbrance could not result in Landlord or Mortgagee suffering (A) any criminal liability, penalty or sanction, (B) any civil liability, penalty or sanction for which Tenant has not made provisions reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Mortgagee, or (C) defeasance or loss of priority of its interest in the Premises; provided, further, however, that TENANT SHALL NONETHELESS BE OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS LANDLORD AND ALL OTHER INDEMNIFIED PARTIES, FROM ANY AND ALL LOSSES, LIABILITIES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, SUITS, CLAIMS, DEMANDS, JUDGMENTS, DAMAGES, COSTS OR EXPENSES SUFFERED AS A RESULT OF THE VIOLATION OF ANY SUCH

 

5


PERMITTED ENCUMBRANCE. Tenant agrees that with respect to the Permitted Encumbrances and any covenants, restrictions or agreements hereafter created by or consented to by Tenant, Tenant shall observe, perform and comply with and carry out the provisions thereof required therein to be observed and performed by Landlord.

 

5. FIXED RENT AND ADDITIONAL RENT.

(a) Tenant shall pay Fixed Rent to Landlord at the business address of Landlord; provided that Fixed Rent shall be paid to Mortgagee for so long as the Loan is outstanding, pursuant to the Mortgagee’s instructions, as the case may be, specified herein, or at such other address as Landlord or Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall from time to time designate by written notice to Tenant. The Fixed Rent shall be due and payable on a monthly basis (or the applicable portion thereof) in the amounts set forth on Schedule 2 hereto. Schedule 2 is incorporated herein by this reference. Fixed Rent shall be due and payable in arrears on the first day of each month (or if such first day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day of each month, each such date being referred to herein as a “Due Date”). In the event of a transfer of any Property expressly permitted under the Loan, the Fixed Rent shall be reduced by the amount of the Fixed Rent allocated to the applicable Property.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) If any installment of Fixed Rent is not paid on the respective Due Date, Tenant shall pay Landlord interest on such overdue payment at the Lease Default Rate, accruing from the Due Date of such payment until the same is paid. All Fixed Rent and Additional Rent shall be payable in U.S. Dollars.

(d) All Taxes, costs, expenses, ground lease rents and other amounts which Tenant is required to pay pursuant to this Lease (other than Fixed Rent and Additional Payments), together with every fine, penalty, interest and cost which may be added for non-payment or late payment thereof, shall constitute additional rent (“Additional Rent’”). All Additional Rent shall be paid directly by Tenant to the party to whom such Additional Rent is due or to Mortgagee if requested by Landlord. If Tenant shall fail to pay any such Additional Rent or any other sum due hereunder when the same shall become due, Landlord shall after written notice to Tenant have all rights, powers and remedies with respect thereto as are provided herein or by Law in the case of non-payment of any Fixed Rent and shall have the right to pay the same on behalf of Tenant, and Tenant shall repay such amounts to Landlord on demand. Tenant shall pay to Landlord interest at the Lease Default Rate on all overdue Additional Rent and other sums due hereunder, in each case paid by Landlord or Mortgagee on behalf of Tenant, from the date of payment by Landlord or Mortgagee until repaid by Tenant.

 

6. NET LEASE; TRUE LEASE.

(a) The obligations of Tenant hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements, and Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant hereunder shall continue to be payable in all events, and the obligations of Tenant hereunder shall continue during the Term, unless the requirement to pay or perform the same shall have been terminated pursuant to the provisions of Section 13(d), or Section 14 of this Part II or if agreed by Tenant and Landlord upon full repayment of the Loan. This is an absolute net lease and Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums payable hereunder by Tenant shall be paid without notice or demand, and without setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, abatement, suspension, reduction or defense. This Lease is the absolute and unconditional obligation of Tenant, and the obligations of

 

6


Tenant under this Lease shall not be affected by any interference with Tenant’s use of any of the Premises for any reason, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) any damage to or destruction of any of the Premises by any cause whatsoever (except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 13(d) of this Part II), (ii) any Condemnation (except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 14 of this Part II), (iii) the prohibition, limitation or restriction of Tenant’s use of any of the Premises, (iv) any eviction by paramount title or otherwise, (v) Tenant’s acquisition of ownership of any of the Premises other than pursuant to an express provision of this Lease, (vi) any default on the part of Landlord under this Lease or under any other agreement, (vii) any latent or other defect in, or any theft or loss of any of the Premises, (viii) any violation of Section 35 of this Part II by Landlord (provided, that this Section 6(a)(viii) shall not limit Tenant’s rights, if any, to seek injunctive relief against Landlord for violation of said Section 35 of this Part II), or (ix) any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, any present or future Law to the contrary notwithstanding. All costs and expenses (other than depreciation, interest on and amortization of debt incurred by Landlord, and costs incurred by Landlord in financing or refinancing the Premises) and other obligations of every kind and nature whatsoever relating to the Premises and the appurtenances thereto and the use and occupancy thereof which may arise or become due and payable with respect to the period which ends on the expiration or earlier termination of the Term in accordance with the provisions hereof (whether or not the same shall become payable during the Term or thereafter) shall be paid and performed by Tenant. Tenant shall pay all expenses related to the maintenance and repair of the Premises, and Taxes and insurance costs. This Lease shall not terminate and Tenant shall not have any right to terminate this Lease (except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 13(d) or Section 14 of this Part II or if agreed to by Tenant and Landlord upon full repayment of the Loan), or to abate Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or any other sums payable by Tenant hereunder during the Lease Term.

(b) Landlord and Tenant agree that this Lease is intended as a true lease and does not represent a financing arrangement. Each party shall reflect the transaction represented hereby in all applicable books, records and reports (including income tax filings) in a manner consistent with “true lease” treatment rather than “financing” treatment.

(c) Except as otherwise permitted herein, Tenant shall remain obligated under this Lease in accordance with its terms and shall not take any action to terminate, rescind or avoid this Lease, notwithstanding any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or other proceeding affecting Landlord or any action with respect to this Lease which may be taken by any trustee, receiver or liquidator or by any court.

 

7. CONDITION.

Tenant acknowledges that Tenant is fully familiar with the physical condition of the Premises and that Landlord makes no representation or warranty express or implied, with respect to same. EXCEPT FOR LANDLORD’S COVENANT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT SET FORTH IN SECTION 35 OF THIS PART II, LANDLORD MAKES NO AND EXPRESSLY HEREBY DENIES ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES REGARDING THE CONDITION OR SUITABILITY OF, OR TITLE TO, THE PREMISES TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAWS, AND TENANT WAIVES ANY RIGHT OR REMEDY OTHERWISE ACCRUING TO TENANT ON ACCOUNT OF THE CONDITION OR SUITABILITY OF THE PREMISES, OR (EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO LANDLORD’S WARRANTY SET FORTH IN SECTION 35 OF THIS PART II) TITLE TO THE PREMISES, AND TENANT AGREES THAT IT TAKES THE PREMISES “AS IS”, WITHOUT ANY SUCH REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES. Tenant has examined the Premises and title to the Premises, and has found all of the same satisfactory for all purposes.

 

7


8. LIENS.

Tenant shall not, directly or indirectly, create, or permit to be created or to remain, and shall remove and discharge (including, without limitation, by any statutory bonding procedure or any other bonding procedure reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and Mortgagee which shall be sufficient to prevent any loss of the Landlord’s or Mortgagee’s interest in the Premises) within thirty (30) days after obtaining knowledge thereof, any mortgage, lien, encumbrance or other charge on (a) the Premises or the leasehold estate created hereby or (b) any Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or any other sums payable by Tenant hereunder, in each case which arises for any reason, other than: the Landlord’s Mortgage (and any assignment of leases or rents collateral thereto); the Permitted Encumbrances; and any mortgage, lien, encumbrance or other charge created by or resulting from any act or omission by Landlord or those claiming by, through or under Landlord (other than Tenant or any other person claiming by, through or under Tenant). Landlord shall not be liable for any labor, services or materials furnished to Tenant or to any party holding any portion of the Premises through or under Tenant and no mechanic’s or other liens for any such labor, services or materials shall attach to the Premises or the leasehold estate created hereby.

 

9. REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE

(a) Tenant shall keep, maintain and repair, at its sole cost and expense, the Premises, including, without limitation, the roof, walls, footings, foundations, HVAC, mechanical and electrical equipment and systems in or serving the Premises and structural and nonstructural components and systems of the Premises, parking areas, sidewalks, roadways and landscaping in good repair and appearance, and shall make all repairs and replacements (substantially equivalent in quality and workmanship to the original work) of every kind and nature, whether foreseen or unforeseen, which may be required to be made in order to keep and maintain the Premises in as good repair and appearance as they were when originally constructed, except for ordinary wear and tear and (other than for any Restoration required by the terms of this Lease) any damage to the Premises by any Termination Casualty to or Major Condemnation of the Premises. Tenant shall do or cause others to do all shoring of the Premises or of the foundations and walls of the Premises and every other act necessary or appropriate for the preservation and safety thereof (including, without limitation, any repairs required by Law as contemplated by Section 10 of this Part II), by reason or in connection with any excavation or other building operation upon the Premises, and Landlord shall have no obligation to do so. Landlord shall not be required to make any repair, replacement, maintenance or other work whatsoever, or to maintain the Premises in any way, and Tenant waives the right to make repairs, replacements or to perform maintenance or other work at the expense of the Landlord, which right may be provided for in any Laws. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to preclude Tenant from being entitled to insurance proceeds or awards for any taking to the extent provided in this Lease. Tenant shall, in all events, make all repairs, replacements and perform maintenance and other work for which it is responsible hereunder, in a good, proper and workmanlike manner. As used herein “Restoration” shall mean restoring or repairing the Premises to as nearly as possible its value, condition, character, utility and useful life immediately before a Condemnation or Casualty, but in any event assuming the Premises have been maintained in accordance with the requirements of Section 9 of this Part II.

(b) If all or any part of the Premises shall violate the agreements or conditions affecting the Premises or any part thereof, or shall violate any Laws or Legal Requirements, or

 

8


shall hinder, obstruct or impair any easement or right-of-way to which the Premises is subject, then, promptly after written request of Landlord (unless such violation of any agreements or conditions of record, hindrance, obstruction or impairment is a Permitted Encumbrance in existence as of the Lease Commencement Date or which subsequently arises with the prior written consent of Landlord and Mortgagee and Landlord and Mortgagee have obtained, at Tenant’s cost, affirmative title insurance coverage against any loss arising due to any such matter on terms and conditions satisfactory to Landlord and Mortgagee in their sole discretion) or of any person affected thereby, Tenant shall, at its sole expense, either (i) obtain valid and effective waivers or settlements of all claims, liabilities and damages resulting therefrom, or (ii) make such changes, including Alterations to the Premises (subject, however, to Tenant’s maintenance and repair obligations in Section 9(a) of this Part II) and take such other action as shall be necessary to remove or eliminate such encroachments, violations, hindrances, obstructions or impairments, provided that, if Landlord’s or Mortgagee’s consent is required for such changes pursuant to this Lease, Landlord’s or Mortgagee’s consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c) If Tenant shall be in default under any of the provisions of this Section 9, Landlord may, after thirty (30) days written notice to Tenant and failure of Tenant to cure during said period, but without notice in the event of an emergency, do whatever is necessary to cure such default as may be appropriate under the circumstances for the account of and at the expense of Tenant. If an emergency exists, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to notify Tenant of the situation by phone or other available communication before taking any such action to cure such default. All reasonable sums so paid by Landlord and all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) so incurred, together with interest at the Lease Default Rate from the date of payment or incurring of the expense, shall constitute Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on demand.

 

10. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.

During the Term, Tenant shall comply with all Laws and Legal Requirements relating to the Premises. As used herein, (i) the term “Laws” shall mean all present and future laws, statutes, codes, ordinances, orders, judgments, decrees, injunctions, rules, regulations and requirements, even if unforeseen or extraordinary, of every duly constituted governmental authority or agency (but excluding those which by their terms are not applicable to and do not impose any obligation on Tenant, Landlord or the Premises or which are due to take effect after expiration of the Term), and (ii) the term “Legal Requirements” shall mean all Laws and covenants, restrictions and conditions now or in the future of record which may be applicable to Tenant, Landlord (with respect to the Premises) or to all or any part of or interest in the Premises, or to the use, manner of use, occupancy, possession, operation, maintenance, Alteration, repair or reconstruction of the Premises.

 

11. ACCESS TO PREMISES.

Upon reasonable notice to Tenant, and during Tenant’s business hours, Landlord and Mortgagee and their respective employees, contractors, agents and representatives may enter onto the Premises to (i) show the Premises to purchasers and potential purchasers, and to mortgagees and potential mortgagees, (ii) inspect the Premises (provided, so long as no Event of Default exists and except as otherwise provided in this Section 11 of Part II, no more than two (2) such inspections by Mortgagee and its respective employees, contractors, agents and representatives shall be permitted in any period of twelve (12) consecutive months without the consent of the Tenant) or (iii) perform any work which Landlord is permitted to perform under this Lease; provided, that, for purposes of subparts (ii) and (iii) of this

 

9


sentence, Landlord and Mortgagee shall not be required to give notice prior to entry onto the Premises during the continuance of an Event of Default or in the event of an emergency situation. Upon reasonable notice to Tenant, during the last six (6) months of the Term, Landlord also may enter onto the Premises to show the Premises to persons wishing to rent the same, and place notices offering the Premises “For Rent” or “For Sale” on the front of any building located on the Premises. No such entry shall constitute an eviction of Tenant but any such entry shall be done by Landlord in such reasonable manner as to minimize any disruption of Tenant’s business operation.

 

12. [RESERVED].

 

13. DAMAGE; DESTRUCTION.

(a) In the event of any damage to or destruction of the Premises by fire, the elements or other casualty during the Term (a “Casualty”), Tenant shall give Landlord and Mortgagee, if any, prompt written notice thereof.

(b) In the event of any such Casualty (whether or not insured against) the Term shall continue and there shall be no abatement or reduction of Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or of any other sums payable by Tenant hereunder.

(c) Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 14(c) of this Part II in the event of a Termination Casualty resulting in a Rejectable Offer being made to Landlord, all proceeds of any insurance required to be carried hereunder respecting the Premises (the “Premises Net Proceeds”) shall be delivered to a trustee (the “Trustee”) which shall be a federally insured bank or other financial institution, selected by Landlord and Tenant and reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee to be held and disbursed in accordance with the provisions of Section 13(e) of this Part II; provided, however, that if at the time of the delivery of the Premises Net Proceeds a Mortgage is in existence, the Mortgagee may act as Trustee without the consent of either Landlord or Tenant.

(d) Tenant shall, whether or not the Premises Net Proceeds of such insurance are sufficient for the purpose or delivered to Tenant, promptly complete the Restoration, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, of the improvements damaged by such Casualty (including any Alterations previously made by Tenant hereunder); provided, however, that if a Casualty occurs within twenty-four (24) months prior to the expiration of the Term which results in damage to the Premises with a cost to repair in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the then current Fair Market Value of the Premises (as hereinafter defined) (a “Termination Casualty”), then, so long as no Event of Default or Disqualifying Default then exists, Tenant may elect not to complete the Restoration provided such election is made within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such Termination Casualty, in which event Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord and Mortgagee on the date for termination specified in such notice (which date shall be a Due Date which is no sooner than ninety (90) days and no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after such notice but, in any event, not later than the last day of the Term of this Lease), but only if (i) such termination is accompanied by a Rejectable Offer, as provided in such Section 14(c) of this Part II, and (ii) if such Rejectable Offer is accepted by Landlord as provided in such Section 14(c), Tenant makes full payment of the sum due thereunder as provided in Section 14(c), in immediately available funds (it being agreed that if Tenant shall have failed to send such notice within such one hundred eighty (180) day period or shall have sent such notice but failed to comply with subparts (i) and (ii) of this sentence, then Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its right to so terminate this Lease and shall be obligated to complete the Restoration). As used herein, a “Disqualifying Default” shall mean and include (i) any failure to

 

10


make any payment of Fixed Rent when due hereunder, and (ii) the occurrence of any event or condition described in subparts (vi) or (vii) of Section 23(a) of Part II hereof without regard to any notice or lapse of time set forth in such subparts which may be required for such events or conditions to mature into an Event of Default. No rejection of a Rejectable Offer shall be effective unless the Mortgagee shall have consented thereto in writing. In addition, if Landlord has not properly accepted such Rejectable Offer, Mortgagee may accept Tenant’s Rejectable Offer by written notice to Tenant delivered in accordance herewith and within the time periods provided herein (notwithstanding any notice by Landlord to the contrary) and, in such event, Tenant’s Rejectable Offer shall be deemed accepted for all purposes hereof. Prior to any such Restoration (or concurrently with making a Rejectable Offer under this Section 13(d), if applicable), Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of the estimated cost thereof (the “Restoration Cost”). Except for such termination expressly provided for above in this paragraph (d), Tenant shall not have any right to abate the payment of Fixed Rent or Additional Rent as a result of any Casualty. As used herein, the “Fair Market Value of the Premises” shall be the fair market value of the Premises as determined by an appraisal of the Premises prepared by an MAI appraiser who is mutually satisfactory to Mortgagee, Landlord and Tenant with not less than ten (10) years experience appraising properties similar to the Premises in the metropolitan area in which the Premises is located (an “Appraiser”).

(e) Premises Net Proceeds held by the Trustee shall be invested in Permitted Investments (as defined in the Loan Documents) and shall be disbursed in accordance with the following conditions:

(i) If the Restoration Cost exceeds the Threshold Repair Amount, before commencing the Restoration the architects, general contractor(s), and plans and specifications for the Restoration shall be approved by Landlord and Mortgagee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and which approval shall be granted to the extent that the plans and specifications depict a Restoration which is substantially similar to the improvements and equipment which existed prior to the occurrence of the Casualty or Taking, whichever is applicable.

(ii) At the time of any requested disbursement, no Event of Default or Disqualifying Default shall exist and no mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens shall have been filed and remain undischarged or unbonded.

(iii) Disbursements shall be made from time to time in an amount not exceeding the hard and soft cost of the work and costs incurred since the last disbursement upon receipt of (A) satisfactory evidence, including architects’ certificates of the stage of completion, of the estimated costs of completion and of performance of the work to date in a good and workmanlike manner in accordance with the contracts, plans and specifications, (B) partial releases of liens, if the same are obtainable or, if such partial releases are not obtainable, endorsements to Landlord’s and Mortgagee’s title insurance policies showing no exceptions for mechanics’ or materialmen’s or any similar liens, and (C) other reasonable evidence of cost and payment so that Landlord can verify that the amounts disbursed from time to time are represented by work that is completed in place or delivered to the site and free and clear of mechanics’ lien claims.

(iv) Each request for disbursement shall be accompanied by a certificate of Tenant describing the work, materials or other costs or expenses for which payment is requested, stating the cost incurred in connection therewith and stating that Tenant has not previously received payment for such work or expense and the certificate to be

 

11


delivered by Tenant upon completion of the work shall, in addition, state that the work has been substantially completed and complies with the applicable requirements of this Lease.

(v) The Trustee may retain ten percent (10%) of the Premises Net Proceeds until the Restoration is at least fifty percent (50%) complete, which amount may continue to be held as retainage until the Restoration is substantially complete.

(vi) [Reserved].

(vii) At all times the undisbursed balance of the Premises Net Proceeds held by Trustee plus any funds contributed thereto by Tenant, at its option, shall be not less than the cost of completing the Restoration, free and clear of all liens.

(viii) In addition, before commencement of Restoration and at any time during Restoration, if the estimated cost of Restoration, as reasonably determined by an independent architect mutually agreed upon by the parties in their reasonable discretion, exceeds the amount of the Net Proceeds available for such Restoration, the amount of such excess shall be paid by Tenant to the Trustee to be added to the Premises Net Proceeds or Tenant shall fund at its own expense the costs of such Restoration until the remaining Premises Net Proceeds are sufficient for the completion of the Restoration. For purposes of determining the source of funds with respect to the disposition of funds remaining after the completion of Restoration, the Premises Net Proceeds shall be deemed to be disbursed prior to any amount added by Tenant.

(ix) Provided no Event of Default or Disqualifying Default exists and is continuing, any Premises Net Proceeds remaining after final payment has been made for such Restoration shall be promptly delivered to Tenant. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default or a Disqualifying Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall be entitled to retain any Premises Net Proceeds and to apply the same to either repair the damages or to pay other amounts due Landlord hereunder or Mortgagee under the Mortgage, at Mortgagee’s or, if there is then no Mortgagee, Landlord’s sole option. No such retention by Landlord shall impose on Landlord any obligation to repair the Premises or relieve Tenant of its obligations to repair the Premises.

(x) Landlord and Tenant agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent there is a conflict between the disbursement procedures contained in this clause (e) and the disbursement procedures set forth in the Loan Documents, the disbursement procedures in the Loan Documents shall control.

(f) The parties intend that the terms of this Section 13 of Part II, and those of Sections 6 and 14 of Part II of this Lease, constitute an “express agreement to the contrary” under Section 227 of the New York Real Property Law.

 

14. CONDEMNATION; REJECTABLE OFFERS; ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS.

(a) Promptly upon obtaining knowledge of any proceeding for condemnation or eminent domain with respect to the Premises (a “Taking” or “Condemnation”), Tenant and Landlord shall each notify the other and Mortgagee, and each shall be entitled to participate in such proceeding at Tenant’s sole expense. Subject to the provisions of this Section 14, Tenant

 

12


hereby irrevocably assigns to Landlord’s Mortgagee or to Landlord, in that order, any award or payment in respect of any Condemnation of the Premises, except that (except as hereinafter provided) nothing in this Lease shall be deemed to assign to Landlord or Mortgagee any award relating to the value of the leasehold interest created by this Lease or any award or payment on account of an interruption of Tenant’s business at the Premises or the Tenant’s trade fixtures, moving expenses and out-of-pocket expenses incidental to the move, if available, to the extent Tenant shall have a right to make a separate claim therefor against the condemnor, it being agreed, however, that Tenant shall in no event be entitled to any payment that reduces the award to which Landlord is or would be entitled for the condemnation of Landlord’s interest in the Premises.

(b) If (i) the entire Premises or (ii) a material portion of the Building or land comprising a portion of the Premises the loss of which would, in Tenant’s reasonable judgment, render the Premises unsuitable for Restoration or for the continued use and occupancy in Tenant’s business after Restoration, shall be subject of a Taking (a “Major Condemnation”), then not later than ninety (90) days after the Taking has occurred, Tenant shall serve written notice upon Landlord and Mortgagee (“Tenant’s Termination Notice”) of Tenant’s intention to terminate this Lease on any Fixed Rent payment Due Date specified in such notice, which Due Date (the “Involuntary Conversion Termination Date”) shall be no sooner than ninety (90) days and no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after Tenant’s Termination Notice but, in any event, not later than the last day of the Term of this Lease. If the Involuntary Conversion Termination Date occurs during the Term, such notice must be accompanied by a Rejectable Offer, as described in Section 14(c) of this Part II, in which event the provisions of such Section 14(c) shall be controlling.

(c) In the event of a Major Condemnation or a Termination Casualty during the Term, then contemporaneously with the delivery of Tenant’s Termination Notice (or notice of termination under Section 13(d)), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord and Mortgagee (i) an irrevocable rejectable written offer (the “Rejectable Offer”) to purchase Landlord’s interest in the Premises on the Involuntary Conversion Termination Date (or the date of termination specified in such notice under Section 13(d)) for a price equal to the then applicable “Additional Payment” (herein so called) as specified on Schedule 1 attached hereto, and (ii) a certificate from an officer of Tenant which (A) describes the event(s) giving rise to the Termination Casualty or Major Condemnation, as the case may be, and (B) in the case of a Major Condemnation, states that the chief financial officer of Tenant has determined that such event has rendered the Premises unsuitable for Restoration or for the continued use and occupancy in Tenant’s business. Within seventy-five (75) days after the date Landlord receives the items required to be delivered in (i) and (ii) above, Landlord shall deliver written notice of its election to either accept or reject Tenant’s Rejectable Offer (with a failure to respond constituting a deemed acceptance of such Rejectable Offer, it being agreed that, in such case, no acceptance by Mortgagee or any other party shall be required). In the event of an acceptance or deemed acceptance of a Rejectable Offer made under this Section 14(c), on the applicable Involuntary Conversion Termination Date (or the date of termination specified in such notice under Section 13(d)) the Premises shall be conveyed to Tenant or its designee and the Premises Net Proceeds or net award, if any, payable in connection with the Termination Casualty or Major Condemnation (or the right to receive the same when made if payment therefor has not yet been made) shall be assigned and/or turned over to the Tenant on the closing of the title in exchange for payment by Tenant to Landlord of all Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums due and payable hereunder (or accrued but not yet due and payable) through the date of such closing plus the applicable Additional Payment for the Premises. If the Landlord and the Landlord’s Mortgagee reject a Rejectable Offer made under this Section 14(c) by a written notice given to the Tenant within the time period set forth above,

 

13


then this Lease shall terminate on the Involuntary Conversion Termination Date (or the date of termination specified in such notice under Section 13(d)) (except with respect to indemnifications, obligations and liabilities of Tenant hereunder, actual or contingent, which have arisen on or prior to such termination, and except for the provisions of Sections 28 and 40 of this Part II, all of which shall survive such termination of this Lease) and any Premises Net Proceeds or net award payable in connection with a Termination Casualty or Major Condemnation (or the right to receive the same when made if payment therefor has not yet been made) shall be assigned or paid and belong to the Landlord, and, in addition, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord an amount equal to any deductible or self insurance amount in effect under the policy or policies insuring the risk relating to such Termination Casualty, all Fixed Rent accrued as of such Involuntary Conversion Termination Date (or the date of termination specified in such notice under Section 13(d)), and all Additional Rent and all other amounts then due and payable (or accrued but not yet due and payable) by the Tenant under this Lease. Except for a termination as provided for in the immediately preceding sentence, Tenant shall not be permitted to abate Fixed Rent or Additional Rent as a result of a Taking or Condemnation. No rejection of a Rejectable Offer shall be effective unless Mortgagee shall have consented thereto in writing. In addition, Mortgagee may accept Tenant’s Rejectable Offer under this Section 14(c) by written notice to Tenant delivered in accordance herewith and within the time periods provided herein (notwithstanding any notice by Landlord to the contrary) and, in such event, Tenant’s Rejectable Offer shall be deemed accepted for all purposes hereof.

(d) If Tenant shall purchase the Premises pursuant to a Rejectable Offer under Section 14(c) which is accepted or deemed accepted, Landlord shall convey or cause to be conveyed title thereto, the state of which shall be free and clear of any encumbrance voluntarily created by Landlord, except for Permitted Encumbrances and liens and encumbrances created by, through, under or with the consent of Tenant, and Tenant or its designee shall accept such title, subject, however, to the condition of the Premises on the date of purchase and all applicable Laws and Legal Requirements, but free of the lien of the Mortgage held by Mortgagee and of liens, and encumbrances resulting from acts of Landlord taken without the consent of Tenant. Upon the Involuntary Conversion Termination Date hereunder (or the date of termination specified in such notice under Section 13(d)),Tenant shall, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, pay into the same account or to the same address as then designated for the payment of Fixed Rent, the then applicable Additional Payment shown on Schedule 1 hereto, together with all Fixed Rent, Additional Rent, and other sums then due and payable or accrued hereunder to and including such date of purchase, and there shall be delivered to Tenant a special warranty deed (or its local equivalent) and any other instruments necessary to convey the title thereto described above and to assign any other property then required to be assigned by Landlord pursuant hereto. Tenant shall pay all charges incident to such conveyance and assignment, including, without limitation, counsel fees, escrow fees, recording fees, title insurance premiums, transfer Taxes and all other applicable Taxes (other than any franchise, income or capital gains Tax, gross receipts Tax imposed in lieu of any of the foregoing Taxes, or Tax imposed under Section 59A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any similar state, local, foreign or successor provision) which may be imposed by reason of such conveyance and assignment and the delivery of said deed or conveyance and other instruments regardless of who is required to pay such Taxes under State or local law or custom (and Tenant shall also pay to Landlord any amount necessary to yield to Landlord the entire purchase price if as a matter of Law Tenant is unable to pay such Tax). Upon the completion of such purchase of the entire Premises by Tenant but not prior thereto (whether or not any delay or failure in the completion of such purchase shall be the fault of Landlord), this Lease shall terminate, except with respect to indemnifications, obligations and liabilities of Tenant hereunder, actual or contingent, which have arisen on or prior to such completion of such purchase, and except for the provisions of Sections 28 and 40 of this Part II,

 

14


all of which shall survive such termination of this Lease. Prior to the completion of such purchase, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Tenant shall continue to be obligated for Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums then due and payable hereunder, without setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, abatement, suspension, reduction or defense.

(e) In the event of any Taking of a portion of the Premises which does not result in a termination of this Lease, the net award resulting from the Taking, i.e., after deducting therefrom all reasonable expenses incurred in the collection thereof, shall be held in accordance with Section 13(c) of this Part II. In the event of any such Taking, Tenant shall promptly commence and diligently complete the Restoration (as defined in Section 9(a) of this Part II) of the Premises in accordance with all Laws and Legal Requirements and all other terms of this Lease. Any net award from Condemnation not resulting in a termination of this Lease shall be disbursed in the same manner as set forth in Section 13(e) of this Part II.

(f) No agreement with any Governmental Authority in settlement of or under threat of any Taking shall be made by Landlord without Tenant’s and Mortgagee’s prior written consent (provided, that Tenant’s consent shall, not be required if an Event of Default or a Disqualifying Default then exists and is continuing), or by Tenant without Landlord’s and Mortgagee’s prior written consent.

(g) In the case of any Taking, all Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other obligations of Tenant shall continue unabated until the termination of this Lease or Tenant’s purchase of the Premises pursuant to Section 14(d) of this Part II.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, so long as the Loan is outstanding, all Premises Net Proceeds or net award, if any, payable in connection with a Termination Casualty or Major Condemnation shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions set forth in the applicable Mortgage respecting the affected Premises.

 

15. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

Tenant shall not have the right to assign this Lease, or to sublet the whole or any part of the Premises, unless Tenant has received the prior written consent of the Landlord and the Landlord has received the prior written consent of the Mortgagee.

 

16. ALTERATIONS.

Tenant shall obtain Landlord’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to any alterations (“Alterations”) to the Premises, which Alterations would require Landlord to obtain Mortgagee’s consent under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s consent shall not be required in connection with any Alterations that will not have a material adverse effect on Landlord’s or Tenant’s financial condition, the value of the Premises or the net operating income from the Premises, provided that such Alterations are made in connection with (a) tenant improvement work performed pursuant to the terms of this Lease or approved of in writing or deemed approved by Mortgagee and Landlord, (b) tenant improvement work performed pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Lease and not adversely affecting any structural component of any improvements, any utility or HVAC system contained in any improvements or the exterior of any building constituting a part of any improvements or (c) Alterations performed in connection with the restoration of the Premises after the occurrence of a casualty in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. If required by Landlord in order to satisfy its requirements under the Loan Documents, Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord (who will deliver the same to Mortgagee) as security for the payment of such amounts and as

 

15


additional security for Tenant’s obligations hereunder and Landlord’s obligations under the Loan Documents any of the following: (A) cash, (B) direct non-callable obligations of the United States of America, (C) other securities having a rating acceptable to Mortgagee, (D) a completion bond or letter of credit issued by a financial institution having a rating by S&P of not less than A-1 if the term of such bond or letter of credit is no longer than one (1) month or, if such term is in excess of one (1) month, issued by a financial institution having a rating from S&P of at least “A-” or (E) a guaranty of the completion of the Alterations in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee from a person rated at least investment grade by S&P. Such security shall be in an amount (which amount shall be adjusted to reflect the current unpaid amounts and released or terminated upon completion of the applicable Alteration) sufficient to satisfy Landlord’s obligations under the Loan Documents. All work done in connection with any Alteration shall be performed with due diligence in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements and insurance requirements under the Loan Documents.

 

17. SIGNS.

At Tenant’s sole cost, Tenant may install, replace, relocate and maintain and repair in and on the Premises, such signs, awnings, lighting effects and fixtures as may be used from time to time by Tenant (collectively, “Signs”). At Tenant’s sole cost and without liability to Landlord, Landlord agrees to cooperate with Tenant (including signing applications upon Tenant’s written request) in obtaining any necessary permits, variances and consents for Tenant’s Signs. All Signs of Tenant shall comply with Laws and Legal Requirements.

At any time during the Term, Tenant may remove the trade fixtures as well as its Signs and identification marks, from the Premises. Tenant agrees to repair any and all damage caused by such removal.

 

18. [RESERVED].

 

19. SURRENDER.

At the expiration or other termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as they were at the commencement of the Term or may be put in thereafter in accordance with this Lease, reasonable wear and tear and (other than for any Restoration required by the terms of this Lease) damage to the Premises by any Termination Casualty or Major Condemnation of the Premises excepted. All Alterations, except Tenant’s furniture, trade fixtures, satellite communications dish and equipment, computer and other similar moveable equipment and shelving (“trade fixtures”), shall become the property of Landlord and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises as a part thereof at the termination or other expiration of the Term. At the expiration or termination of the Term, Tenant shall remove its trade fixtures, as well as its Signs and identification marks, from the Premises. Tenant agrees to repair any and all damage caused by such removal. Trade fixtures and personal property not so removed at the end of the Term or within thirty (30) days after the earlier termination of the Term for any reason whatsoever shall become the property of Landlord, and Landlord may thereafter cause such property to be removed from the Premises. The reasonable cost of removing and disposing of such property and repairing any damage to any of the Premises caused by such removal shall be borne by Tenant. Landlord shall not in any manner or to any extent be obligated to reimburse Tenant for any property which becomes the property of Landlord as a result of such expiration or earlier termination. The provisions of this Section 19 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Lease.

 

16


20. SUBORDINATION OF LEASE.

(a) This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to any Mortgage and to all advances made upon the security thereof. The term “Mortgage” shall include any mortgages, deeds of trust or any other similar hypothecations on the Premises securing any Loan to Landlord, regardless of whether or not such Mortgage is recorded.

(b) Tenant agrees to attorn, from time to time, to Mortgagee, and to any purchaser of the Premises, for the remainder of the Term, provided that Mortgagee or such purchaser shall then be entitled to possession of the Premises, subject to the provisions of this Lease.

Each such party shall however, upon demand of the other, execute instruments in confirmation of the foregoing provisions reasonably satisfactory to the requesting party acknowledging such subordination, non-disturbance and attornment and setting forth the terms and conditions hereof.

(c) Tenant hereby consents to any assignment of this Lease by Landlord to or for the benefit of any Mortgagee. Without limitation of the preceding sentence, Tenant hereby specifically consents to any Assignment of Lease and Rents executed by Landlord to and for the benefit of the Mortgagee named herein.

(xv) a Change in Control (or a “Change in Control” as such term is defined in the ABL Credit Agreement or the Term Loan Credit Agreement) shall occur; or

(xvi) Tenant shall agree to any amendment, supplement, restatement, replacement or other modification to any negative covenant or related term in the ABL Credit Agreement or the Term Loan Credit Agreement in effect as of the Closing Date corresponding to a Specified Negative Covenant and such amendment, supplement, restatement, replacement or other modification would adversely affect the Landlord, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent).

(b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord shall be entitled to all remedies available at law or in equity. Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to give Tenant notice of Landlord’s termination of the Term of this Lease.

 

19


Upon the giving of such notice, the Term of this Lease and the estate hereby granted shall expire and terminate on such date as fully and completely and with the same effect as if such date were the date herein fixed for the expiration of the Term of this Lease, and all rights of Tenant hereunder shall expire and terminate, but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided.

(c) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord shall have the immediate right, whether or not the Term of this Lease shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 23(b) of this Part II, to re-enter and repossess the Premises and the right to remove all persons and property therefrom by summary proceedings, ejectment, any other legal action or in any lawful manner Landlord determines to be necessary or desirable. Landlord shall be under no liability by reason of any such reentry, repossession or removal. No such re-entry, repossession or removal shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a notice of such termination is given to Tenant pursuant to Section 23(b) of this Part II.

(d) At any time or from time to time after a re-entry, repossession or removal pursuant to Section 23(c) of this Part II, whether or not the Term of this Lease shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 23(b) of this Part II, Landlord may (but, except to the extent expressly required by any applicable Law, shall be under no obligation to) relet the Premises for the account of Tenant, in the name of Tenant or Landlord or otherwise, without notice to Tenant, for such term or terms and on such conditions and for such uses as Landlord, in its absolute discretion, may determine. Landlord may collect any rents payable by reason of such reletting. Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to relet the Premises or for any failure to collect any rent due upon any such reletting.

(e) No expiration or termination of the Term of this Lease pursuant to Section 23(b) of this Part II, by operation of law or otherwise, and no re-entry, repossession or removal pursuant to Section 23(c) of this Part II or otherwise, and no reletting of the Premises pursuant to Section 23(d) of this Part II or otherwise, shall relieve Tenant of its liabilities and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive such expiration, termination, re-entry, repossession, removal or reletting.

(f) In the event of any expiration or termination of the Term of this Lease or re-entry or repossession of the Premises or removal of persons or property therefrom by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other sums required to be paid by Tenant, in each case together with interest thereon at the Lease Default Rate from the due date thereof to and including the date of such expiration, termination, re-entry, repossession or removal; and thereafter, Tenant shall, until the end of what would have been the Term of this Lease in the absence of such expiration, termination, re-entry, repossession or removal and whether or not the Premises shall have been relet, be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord, as liquidated and agreed current damages (it being agreed that it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages): (i) all Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other sums which would be payable under this Lease by Tenant in the absence of any such expiration, termination, re-entry, repossession or removal, less (ii) the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting effected for the account of Tenant pursuant to Section 23(d) of this Part II, after deducting from such proceeds all reasonable expenses of Landlord in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, reasonable attorneys” fees and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of appellate proceedings), alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such reletting. Tenant shall pay such liquidated and agreed current damages on the dates on which Fixed Rent would be payable under this Lease in the absence of such expiration, termination, reentry, repossession or removal, and Landlord shall be entitled to recover the same from Tenant on each such date.

 

20


(g) At any time after any such expiration or termination of the Term of this Lease or re-entry or repossession of the Premises or removal of persons or property thereon by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default, whether or not Landlord shall have collected any liquidated and agreed current damages pursuant to Section 23(f) of this Part II, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand, as and for liquidated and agreed final damages for Tenant’s default and in lieu of all liquidated and agreed current damages beyond the date of such demand (it being agreed that it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages), an amount equal to the sum of (i) the excess, if any of (A) the aggregate of all Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other sums which would be payable under this Lease, in each case from the date of such demand (or, if it be earlier, the date to which Tenant shall have satisfied in full its obligations under Section 23(f) of this Part II to pay liquidated and agreed current damages) for what would be the then-unexpired Term of this Lease in the absence of such expiration, termination, re-entry, repossession or removal, discounted at the rate equal to the then rate on U.S. Treasury obligations of comparable maturity to such Term (the “Treasury Rate”), but in no event greater than the non-default rate of interest for the Loan (such lower rate being referred to as the “Discount Rate”) over (B) the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided by commercially reasonable mitigation efforts by Landlord, discounted at the Discount Rate for the same period, plus (ii) any make-whole premium, prepayment premium, breakage costs or other amount due under the Loan as a result of the prepayment or defeasance thereof (including, without limitation, any yield maintenance premium due under the Loan Documents), plus (iii) all reasonable legal fees and expenses and all other costs and expenses incurred by Landlord and Mortgagee as a result of Tenant’s default under this Lease. If any Law shall limit the amount of liquidated final damages to less than the amount above agreed upon, Landlord shall be entitled to the maximum amount allowable under such Law.

Mention in this Lease of any particular remedy shall not preclude Landlord from any other remedy at law or in equity, including the right of injunction. Tenant waives any rights of redemption granted by any Laws if Tenant is evicted or dispossessed, for any cause, or if Landlord obtains possession of the Premises by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the terms of this Lease. Further, without limitation of any other provision of this Lease, Tenant, on its own behalf and for its legal representatives, successors and assigns, and on behalf of all persons claiming through or under this Lease, together with creditors of all classes, and all other persons having an interest therein, does hereby waive, surrender and give up all right or privilege which it may or might have by reason of Sections 761 and 763 of the Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law of the State of New York, or by reason of any other present or future Law or decision, to redeem the Premises or have a continuance of this Lease for any part of the Term hereof after having been dispossessed or ejected therefrom by process of law or otherwise.

(h) In addition to the foregoing remedies set forth in this Section 23 and all other remedies available at law or in equity, and regardless of whether or not an Event of Default has occurred under this Lease, if Tenant has failed to perform any of its duties, obligations, covenants or agreements under this Lease, Landlord may give notice to Tenant that it has failed to perform any such duty, obligation, covenant or agreement (herein called a “Notice of Breach”) and may thereafter pursue any rights or remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, filing a suit for damages as a result of such breach or a suit for specific performance of any such duties, obligations, covenants or agreements. Any Notice of Breach delivered under this Section 23(h) or any such rights or remedies pursued by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a

 

21


notice of default under any provision of this Section 23 and shall not result, with or without the passage of time, in an Event of Default existing under this Lease; provided, that the delivery of any such Notice of Breach shall not limit Landlord’s right (which right will not be exercised without the consent of Mortgagee so long as the Premises are subject to a Mortgage which requires Mortgagee’s consent for the exercise thereof) to subsequently deliver notice (with respect to the same event or condition which is the subject of such Notice of Breach or any other event or condition) which will declare or, with the passage of time, result in an Event of Default hereunder.

 

24. LANDLORD ASSIGNMENT OF WARRANTIES.

Landlord assigns to Tenant, without recourse or warranty whatsoever, all warranties, guaranties and indemnities, express or implied, and similar rights which Landlord may have against any manufacturer, seller, engineer, contractor or builder with respect to the Premises, including, but not limited to, any rights and remedies existing under contract or pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code (collectively, the “Guaranties”). Such assignment shall remain in effect during the Term. Landlord hereby agrees to execute and deliver at Tenant’s expense such further documents, including powers of attorney (which shall contain indemnity agreements from Tenant to Landlord which shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord), as Tenant may reasonably request in order that Tenant may have the full benefit of the assignment of Guaranties effected or intended to be effected by this Article. Upon the occurrence of a termination of this Lease, the Guaranties shall automatically revert to Landlord.

 

25. RENT PAYMENTS.

If Landlord’s interest in this Lease shall pass to another, or if the Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or other rights hereunder to receive payments shall be assigned, or if a party, other than Landlord, shall become entitled to collect the Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or other payments due hereunder, then notice thereof shall be given to Tenant by Landlord in writing, or, if Landlord is an individual and shall have died or become incapacitated, by Landlord’s legal representative, accompanied by due proof of the appointment of such legal representative; provided, that if Fixed Rent is then being paid to Mortgagee in accordance with Section 5(a) of Part II, then notwithstanding such notice from Landlord, Tenant shall continue to pay Fixed Rent to Mortgagee until it receives contrary notice from Mortgagee. Until such notice and proof shall be received by Tenant, Tenant may continue to pay the rent due hereunder to the one to whom, and in the manner in which, the last preceding installment of rent hereunder was paid, and each such payment shall fully discharge Tenant with respect to such payment.

Tenant shall not be obligated to recognize any agent for the collection of rent or otherwise authorized to act with respect to the Premises until written notice of the appointment and the extent of the authority of such agent shall be given to Tenant by the one appointing such agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant acknowledges and agree that, for so long as the Loan is outstanding, all payments under this Lease shall be deposited directly with Mortgagee pursuant to the Mortgagee’s instructions.

 

26. HOLDOVER.

If Tenant shall hold over after the expiration date of the Term, or if Tenant shall hold over after the date specified in any termination notice given by Tenant under Section 13(d) or 14(b) of this Part II, then, in either such event, Tenant shall be a month-to-month Tenant on the same terms as herein provided, except that the monthly Fixed Rent will be 1.5 times the average monthly Fixed Rent payable by Tenant during the Term.

 

22


27. NOTICES

Whenever, pursuant to this Lease, notice or demand shall or may be given to either of the parties (including Mortgagee) by the other, and whenever either of the parties shall desire to give to the other any notice or demand with respect to this Lease or the Premises, each such notice or demand shall be in writing, and any Laws to the contrary notwithstanding, shall not be effective for any purpose unless the same shall be given or served as follows: by mailing the same to the other party by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by delivery by nationally recognized overnight courier service provided a receipt is required, at its Notice Address set forth in Part I hereof, or at such other address as either party may from time to time designate by notice given to the other. The date of receipt of the notice or demand shall be deemed the date of the service thereof (unless delivery of the notice or demand is refused or rejected, in which case the date of such refusal or rejection shall be deemed the date of service thereof).

 

28. INDEMNITY.

TENANT SHALL DEFEND LANDLORD AND ANY OF LANDLORD’S OWNERS, PARTNERS, TRUSTEES, BENEFICIAL OWNERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS OR SHAREHOLDERS (HEREIN COLLECTIVELY, “LANDLORD INDEMNIFIED PARTIES”), TOGETHER WITH THE MORTGAGEE AND EACH LENDER, AND ANY OWNER, PARTNER, MEMBER, MANAGER, TRUSTEE, BENEFICIAL OWNER, OFFICER, DIRECTOR, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF THE MORTGAGEE OR ANY LENDER (HEREIN, COLLECTIVELY WITH THE LANDLORD INDEMNIFIED PARTIES, “INDEMNIFIED PARTIES”) WITH RESPECT TO, AND SHALL PAY, PROTECT, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES FROM AND AGAINST, ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, COSTS, EXPENSES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, REASONABLE ATTORNEYS” FEES AND EXPENSES), CAUSES OF ACTION, SUITS, CLAIMS, DEMANDS OR JUDGMENTS OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER (COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”), HOWEVER CAUSED, ARISING FROM (I) INJURY TO OR DEATH OF ANY PERSON OR PERSONS OR DAMAGE TO OR LOSS OF PROPERTY, REAL OR PERSONAL, IN ANY MANNER ARISING THEREFROM, OCCURRING ON THE PREMISES OR CONNECTED WITH THE USE, NON-USE, CONDITION, OCCUPANCY, DESIGN, FINANCING, OWNERSHIP, LEASING, POSSESSION, CONSTRUCTION, MAINTENANCE, REPAIR OR REBUILDING OF ANY THEREOF, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY HAS OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWLEDGE OR NOTICE OF THE DEFECT OR CONDITIONS, IF ANY, CAUSING OR CONTRIBUTING TO SAID INJURY, DEATH, LOSS, DAMAGE OR OTHER CLAIM, (II) TENANT’S VIOLATION OF THIS LEASE, (III) ANY ACT OR OMISSION OF TENANT OR ITS AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, LICENSEES, SUBTENANTS OR INVITEES, (IV) THE RELEASE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS OR THE VIOLATION OF ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LAW, AND (V) ANY CONTEST REFERRED TO IN SECTION 31(B) OF THIS PART II; PROVIDED, THAT TENANT SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND OR HOLD HARMLESS ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY FOR ANY SUCH MATTERS ARISING DUE TO THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY; AND PROVIDED, FURTHER, NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS LEASE SHALL BE DEEMED TO EXEMPT THE LANDLORD FROM LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES FOR INJURIES TO PERSON OR PROPERTY CAUSED BY OR RESULTING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE LANDLORD, ITS AGENTS, SERVANTS OR EMPLOYEES, IN THE OPERATION OR MAINTENANCE OF THE PREMISES.

If a written Claim is made against any Indemnified Party or if any proceeding shall be commenced against such Indemnified Party (including without limitation a written notice of such proceeding) for any Claim, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Tenant in writing and shall

 

23


not take action with respect to such Claim without the consent of the Tenant for thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice by the Tenant; provided, however, that in the case of any such Claim, if action shall be required by law or regulation to be taken prior to the end of such period of thirty (30) days, such Indemnified Party shall endeavor to, in such notice to the Tenant, inform the Tenant of such shorter period, and no action shall be taken with respect to such Claim without the consent of the Tenant before seven (7) days before the end of such shorter period unless the Indemnified Party shall be required by such law or regulation to take action prior to the end of such seven (7) day period; provided, further, that the failure of such Indemnified Party to give the notices referred to in this sentence shall not diminish the Tenant’s obligation hereunder except to the extent such failure precludes in all respects the Tenant from contesting such Claim.

If the Tenant shall request in writing, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Party (or such shorter period as is required by law or regulation for the Indemnified Party to respond to such Claim), that such Indemnified Party respond to such Claim, the Indemnified Party shall, at the expense of the Tenant, in good faith conduct and control such action (including without limitation by pursuit of appeals) (provided, however, that (A) if such Claim, in the Tenant’s reasonable discretion, can be pursued by the Tenant on behalf of or in the name of such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party, at the Tenant’s request, shall allow the Tenant to conduct and control the response to such Claim and (B) in the case of any Claim (and notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing subsection (A)), the Indemnified Party may request in writing that the Tenant conduct and control the response to such Claim (with counsel to be selected by the Tenant and consented to by such Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that any Indemnified Party may retain separate counsel at the expense of the Tenant in the event of a potential conflict of interest between such Indemnified Party and the Tenant)) by, in the sole discretion of the person conducting and controlling the response to such Claim (1) resisting payment thereof, (2) not paying the same except under protest, if protest is necessary and proper, (3) if the payment be made, using reasonable efforts to obtain a refund thereof in appropriate administrative and judicial proceedings, or (4) taking such other action as is reasonably requested by the Tenant from time to time.

The party controlling the response to any Claim shall consult in good faith with the non-controlling party and shall keep the non-controlling party reasonably informed as to the conduct of the response to such Claim; provided, that all decisions ultimately shall be made in the discretion of the controlling party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 28, no Indemnified Party shall be required to take any action and the Tenant shall not be permitted to respond to any Claim in its own name or that of an Indemnified Party unless (A) the Tenant shall have agreed to pay and shall pay to such Indemnified Party on demand and on a after-tax basis all reasonable costs, losses and expenses that such Indemnified Party actually incurs in connection with such Claim, including without limitation all reasonable legal, accounting and investigatory fees and disbursements and the Tenant shall have agreed that the Claim is an indemnifiable Claim hereunder, (B) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably determined that the action to be taken will not result in any material danger of sale, forfeiture or loss of the Premises, or any part thereof or interest therein, and will not result in risk of criminal liability on behalf of any Indemnified Party, (C) if such Claim shall involve the payment of any amount prior to the resolution of such Claim, the Tenant shall provide to the Indemnified Party an interest-free advance in an amount equal to the amount that the Indemnified Party is required to pay (with no additional net after-tax cost to such Indemnified Party) prior to the date such payment is due, and (D) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. In no event shall the Tenant be permitted to adjust or settle any Claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party to the extent any such adjustment or settlement involves, or is reasonably likely to involve, any performance by or adverse admission by or with respect to the Indemnified Party.

29. TENANT TO COMPLY WITH MATTERS OF RECORD.

Tenant agrees to perform all obligations of Landlord and pay all expenses which Landlord or Tenant may be required to pay in accordance with, and to comply and cause the Premises to comply in all respects with all of the terms and conditions of, any reciprocal easement agreement or any other agreement or document of record now affecting the Premises (including, without limitation, the Permitted Encumbrances) or hereafter executed with Tenant’s written consent (herein referred to collectively as the “Matters of Record”) during the Term. TENANT SHALL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS LANDLORD AND ALL OTHER INDEMNIFIED PARTIES FROM ANY CLAIM, LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY LANDLORD OR SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTIES BY REASON OF TENANT’S FAILURE TO PERFORM ANY OBLIGATIONS OR PAY ANY EXPENSES AS REQUIRED UNDER ANY MATTERS OF RECORD OR COMPLY AND CAUSE THE PREMISES TO COMPLY WITH THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ANY MATTERS OF RECORD DURING THE TERM.

 

30. [RESERVED).

 

31. TAXES.

(a) Subject to the provisions hereof relating to contests, Tenant shall pay and discharge, before any interest or penalties are due thereon, to the extent applicable, all of the following taxes, charges, assessments, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed by any Governmental Authority (collectively, “Tax” or “Taxes”), even if unforeseen or extraordinary, which are imposed or assessed prior to the Lease Commencement Date or on or subsequent to the Lease Commencement Date during the Term, regardless of whether payment thereof is due prior to, during or after the Term: all Taxes of every kind and nature (including, without limitation, real, ad valorem and personal property), on or with respect to the Premises (including, without limitation, any Taxes assessed against Landlord’s reversionary estate in the Premises or against any real property other than the Premises which is included within the tax parcel which includes the Premises), the Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or Additional Payments payable hereunder, this Lease or the leasehold estate created hereby; all charges and/or assessments for any easement or agreement maintained for the benefit of the Premises; all ground rents on or with respect to the Premises; and all general and special assessments, levies, water and sewer assessments and other utility charges, use charges and rents and all other public charges and/or Taxes whether of a like or different nature. Landlord shall promptly deliver to Tenant any bill or invoice Landlord receives with respect to any Tax; provided, that the Landlord’s failure to deliver any such bill or invoice shall not limit Tenant’s obligation to pay such Tax; and provided, further, that if at any time during the Term of this Lease, the method of taxation shall be such that there shall be assessed, levied, charged or imposed on Landlord a Tax upon the value of the Premises or any present or future improvement or improvements on the Premises, including any Tax which uses rents received from Tenant as a means to derive value of the property subject to such Tax, then all such levies and Taxes or the part thereof so measured or based shall be payable by Tenant, but only to the extent that such levies or Taxes would be payable if the Premises were the only property of Landlord, and Tenant shall pay and discharge the same as herein provided. In the event that any assessment against the Premises is payable in installments, Tenant may pay such assessment in installments; and in such event, Tenant shall be liable only for those installments which become due and payable prior to or during the Term, or which are appropriately allocated to the Term even if due and payable after the Term. Tenant shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Landlord and Mortgagee, promptly upon Landlord’s or Mortgagee’s written request, evidence satisfactory to Landlord and Mortgagee that the Taxes required to be paid pursuant to this Section 31 have been so paid and are not then delinquent.

 

25


(b) After prior written notice to Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost, Tenant may contest (including seeking an abatement or reduction of) in good faith any Taxes agreed to be paid hereunder; provided, that (i) Tenant first shall satisfy any Legal Requirements, including, if required, that the Taxes be paid in full before being contested, (ii) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (iii) failing to pay such Taxes will not subject Landlord or Mortgagee to criminal or civil penalties or fines or to prosecution for a crime, or result in the sale, forfeiture or loss of any portion of the Premises, the Fixed Rent or any Additional Rent and (iv) such contest will be in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. Tenant agrees that each such contest shall be promptly and diligently prosecuted to a final conclusion, except that Tenant shall have the right to attempt to settle or compromise such contest through negotiations. Tenant shall pay and shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord and Mortgagee and all other Indemnified Parties harmless against any and all losses, judgments, decrees and costs (including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with any such contest and shall promptly, after the final determination of such contest, fully pay and discharge the amounts which shall be levied, assessed, charged or imposed or be determined to be payable therein or in connection therewith, together with all penalties, fines, interest, costs and expenses thereof or in connection therewith, and perform all acts the performance of which shall be ordered or decreed as a result thereof. At Tenant’s sole cost, Landlord shall assist Tenant as reasonably necessary with respect to any such contest, including joining in and signing applications or pleadings. Any rebate applicable to any portion of the Term shall belong to Tenant.

 

32. INSURANCE.

Tenant shall maintain or cause to be maintained the insurance required pursuant to the Loan Documents and in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, which provisions are attached hereto as Schedule 3 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

33. LANDLORD EXCULPATION.

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any claim based upon liability of Landlord under this Lease shall be enforced only against the Landlord’s interest in the Premises and shall not be enforced against the Landlord individually or personally other than with respect to fraud or the misappropriation of insurance or Condemnation proceeds. In no event shall any partner, shareholder, trustee, manager, member, beneficial owner, officer, director or other owner or agent of Landlord have any liability under this Lease.

 

34. LANDLORD’S TITLE.

The Premises are demised and let subject to the Permitted Encumbrances without representation or warranty by Landlord. The recital of the Permitted Encumbrances herein shall not be construed as a revival of any Permitted Encumbrance which has expired.

 

35. QUIET ENJOYMENT.

Landlord warrants and agrees that Tenant, on paying the Fixed Rent, Additional Rent and other charges due hereunder and performing all of Tenant’s other obligations pursuant to this Lease, shall and may peaceably and quietly have, hold, and enjoy the Premises for the full Term, free from molestation, eviction, or disturbance by Landlord or by any other person(s) lawfully claiming by, through or under

 

26


Landlord, subject, however, to the Permitted Encumbrances. Any failure by Landlord to comply with the foregoing warranty shall not give Tenant any right to cancel or terminate this Lease, or to abate, reduce or make deduction from or offset against any Fixed Rent, Additional Rent or other sum payable under this Lease, or to fail to perform or observe any other covenant, agreement or obligation hereunder or to recover any damages against Landlord resulting therefrom (except for any damages resulting solely from Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct).

 

36. [RESERVED].

 

37. BROKER.

Landlord and Tenant each represent and warrant that it has had no dealings or conversations with any real estate broker in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Lease. TENANT AGREES TO DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS LANDLORD AGAINST ALL LIABILITIES ARISING FROM ANY CLAIM OF ANY REAL ESTATE BROKERS, INCLUDING COST OF COUNSEL FEES, RESULTING FROM TENANT’S ACTS. IN THE EVENT OF ANY BREACH OF LANDLORD’S REPRESENTATIONS UNDER THIS SECTION 37 OR ANY CLAIM BY TENANT AGAINST LANDLORD FOR ANY INDEMNITY UNDER THIS SECTION 37, TENANT SHALL HAVE NO RIGHT TO ABATE OR DEFER ANY PAYMENT OF ANY FIXED RENT, ADDITIONAL RENT AND/OR OTHER AMOUNTS DUE UNDER THIS LEASE, OR TO EXERCISE ANY RIGHTS OF OFFSET WITH RESPECT THERETO, AND TENANT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY SUCH RIGHTS THAT MAY EXIST AT LAW, IN EQUITY OR OTHERWISE.

 

38. TRANSFER OF TITLE.

In the event of any transfer(s) of the title to the Premises, Landlord (and in the case of any subsequent transfer, the then-grantor) automatically shall be relieved from and after the date of such transfer, of all liability with respect to the performance of any obligations on the part of said Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed; provided, that any amount then due and payable to Tenant by Landlord (or the then-grantor), and any other obligation then to be performed by Landlord (or the then-grantor) under this Lease, either shall be paid or performed by Landlord (or the then-grantor) or such payment or performance assumed by the transferee; it being intended hereby that the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord shall, subject to the foregoing, be binding on Landlord, its successors and assigns, only during and with respect to their respective successive period of ownership. Landlord may freely transfer the Premises and this Lease without the consent of Tenant.

 

39. [RESERVED].

 

40. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS.

(a) For the purposes hereof, the term “Hazardous Materials” means any gasoline or petroleum (including crude oil or any extraction thereof) or petroleum products or any hazardous or toxic substances, materials or wastes, defined or regulated as such in or under any Environmental Law, including without limitation, asbestos, perchlorate, polychlorinated biphenyls and urea formaldehyde insulation. The term “Environmental Laws’” shall mean any federal, State and local laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, standards, policies and other government directives or requirements, as well as common law, that, at any time, apply to Landlord or the Premises (or any portion thereof) and relate to hazardous materials or toxic materials, substances or wastes, or the protection of the environment, including without limitation the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.

 

27


(b) Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that, except as disclosed in the environmental reports listed on Exhibit C hereto, (i) neither the Premises, nor any portion thereof, has been used by Tenant or, to the best of Tenant’s knowledge, by any other person for the generation, manufacture, storage, handling, transfer, treatment, recycling, transportation, processing, production, refinement or disposal (each, a “Regulated Activity”) of any Hazardous Materials; (ii) to the best of Tenant’s knowledge, there are no Hazardous Materials present on, in, under or, affecting or migrating from the Premises or any portion thereof except to the extent expressly permitted by the terms of this Section 40(b); and (iii) Tenant has complied in all material respects with all Environmental Laws applicable to the Premises during any periods of occupation of the Premises prior to the date hereof. Tenant covenants that during the term of this Lease it (i) will comply, and will take commercially reasonable efforts to cause all uses and operations by other persons on the Premises to comply, in all material respects with all Environmental Laws applicable to the Premises, (ii) will not use, and shall prohibit the use of the Premises for Regulated Activities or for the storage, handling or disposal of Hazardous Materials except those that are both (A) in compliance in all material respects with all Environmental Laws and with permits issued pursuant thereto, if and to the extent required, and (B) (1) in amounts not in excess of that necessary to operate the Properties or (2) fully disclosed to and approved by Landlord in writing; (iii) (A) will not install and will take commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the installation by any other person on the Premises of any underground storage tanks or surface impoundments and shall take commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any petroleum contamination in violation of applicable Environmental Laws or which requires Remedial Work (as defined below) originating on the Premises, and (B) with respect to any petroleum contamination on the Premises which originates from a source off the Premises, Tenant shall notify all responsible third parties and appropriate government agencies (collectively, “Third Parties”) and shall take reasonable commercial efforts to prosecute to completion the Remedial Work of the Premises by such Third Parties, including, without limitation, undertaking legal action, if reasonably necessary, to enforce obligations for Remedial Work of such Third Parties and, to the extent not done so by such Third Parties and to the extent technically feasible and commercially practicable, Tenant shall remediate such petroleum contamination, and (iv) shall cause any Alterations of the Premises to be done in a way which complies with applicable Laws relating to exposure of persons working on or visiting the Premises to Hazardous Materials and, in connection with any such Alterations, shall remove any Hazardous Materials present upon the Premises which are not in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws or which present a health risk to persons working on or visiting the Premises.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord agrees that Tenant may use household and commercial cleaners and chemicals to maintain the Premises. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that any or all of the cleaners and chemicals described in this paragraph may constitute Hazardous Materials. However, Tenant may sell, use, store and dispose of same as herein set forth, provided, that in doing so Tenant complies with all Laws. For the purposes of subdivisions (c) and (d) of this Article, the term “Hazardous Materials” shall exclude the Hazardous Materials used as permitted in this paragraph.

(c) If, at any time during the Term, Hazardous Materials requiring any investigation, site monitoring, containment, cleanup, removal, restoration or other remedial work of any kind or nature (collectively, “Remedial Work”) pursuant to applicable Environmental Law shall be found in, on or under the Premises, then, if Tenant shall have caused the presence of such Hazardous Materials, Tenant shall (at Tenant’s sole expense), or, if Tenant shall not have caused the

(i) comprehensive all risk insurance on the Improvements and the Personal Property, in each case (A) in an amount equal to 100% of the “Full Replacement Cost”, which for purposes of this Agreement shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) with a waiver of depreciation, (B) containing an agreed amount endorsement with respect to the Improvements and Personal Property waiving all co-insurance provisions; (C) providing for no deductible in excess of $250,000 and (D) providing coverage for contingent liability from Operation of Building Laws, Demolition Costs and Increased Cost of Construction Endorsements together with an “Ordinance or Law Coverage” or “Enforcement” endorsement if any of the Improvements or the use of any Property shall at the date of the loss constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses;

(ii) commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon in or about the Property, such insurance (A) to be on the so-called “occurrence” form with a combined single limit of not less than $5,000,000; (B) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Administrative Agent in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate; and (C) to cover at least the following hazards: (1) premises and operations; (2) products and completed operations on an “if any” basis; (3) independent contractors; and (4) blanket contractual liability for all written and oral contracts;

All insurance proceeds payable to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 6.1 (a)(iii) shall be held by Administrative Agent and shall be applied to the Secured Obligations from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured hereunder on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Notes and this Agreement except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such business interruption/loss of rents insurance.


(iv) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements (A) owner’s contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the insurance provided for in Section 6.1 (c)(ii); and (B) the insurance provided for in Section 6.1 (a)(i) shall be written in a so-called builder’s risk completed value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against all risks insured against pursuant to Section 6.1 (a)(i), (3) shall include permission to occupy the Properties, and (4) shall contain an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;

(viii) umbrella liability insurance in an amount not less than Fifty Million and No/100 Dollars ($50,000,000.00) per occurrence on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance policy required under Section 6.1 (a)(ii) hereof; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be obligated to obtain and maintain the insurance required under this clause (viii) if and to the extent Sears Roebuck & Co. has obtained and maintains such insurance;

(ix) Insurance Against Terrorism throughout the term of the Loan or such coverage as may be purchased by Borrower at an annual cost not to exceed $30,000;

(x) Earthquake insurance in amounts and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent in the event an individual Property is located in an area with a high degree of seismic activity; provided such insurance shall not be greater (in cost and amount of coverage) than the insurance required to be maintained by operators of similar properties in the region.

(xi) such other insurance and in such amounts as Administrative Agent from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards not expressly


covered by subsections (i) through (x) of this Section 6.1(a) which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Properties located in or around the region in which the Properties are located.

(b) All insurance provided for in Section 6.1(a) hereof shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), in such forms and, from time to time after the date hereof, in such amounts as may be satisfactory to Administrative Agent, issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State in which the Properties are located and reasonably approved by Administrative Agent. The insurance companies must have a claims paying ability/financial strength rating of “A/A2” (or its equivalent) or better by at least two (2) Rating Agencies or a claims paying ability/financial strength rating of “A:X” or better by AM Best (each such insurer shall be referred to below as a “Qualified Insurer”).

(ii) each Policy shall provide that the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Administrative Agent if the Policy has not been renewed thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and

(iii) Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

(f) [Reserved].

(g) If at any time Administrative Agent is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Administrative Agent shall have the right, upon forty-five (45) days notice to Borrower to take such action as Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect its interest in the Properties, including without limitation the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems appropriate, and all expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent upon demand and, until paid, shall be secured by the Security Instruments and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.


(h) [Reserved].

(i) Borrower acknowledges that Financing Parties have disclosed to Borrower the contents of California Civil Code Section 29.55(a), which states that no lender shall require a borrower, as a condition to receiving or maintaining a loan secured by real property, to provide hazard insurance coverage against risks to the improvements on that real property in an amount exceeding the replacement value of the improvements on the property.
