(d)Provided that Sublessee shall not then be in default under any of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Sublease beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and/or cure period, Sublessee shall be entitled to an abatement (the “Abatement”) of the Base Rent for the period commencing on the Commencement Date and ending forty-five (45) days after the Commencement Date, and Sublessee’s obligation to pay the Base Rent shall commence on the date that is forty-six (46) days after the Commencement Date (the Rent Commencement Date).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) during such periods in which the Abatement is effective, Sublessee shall not be relieved of its obligation to pay any Additional Rent, and (ii) the Abatement is expressly conditioned upon Sublessee not being in default of this Sublease.  In the event that Sublessee defaults hereunder beyond any applicable cure period, then Sublessee shall promptly pay to Sublessor upon demand, as Additional Rent, a sum equal to the unamortized amount of the Abatement as of the date of such default. Sublessee acknowledges and agrees that the consideration for the Abatement is Sublessee’s agreement to perform all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Sublease on its part to be performed.

(e)If Sublessee fails to pay the full amount of any Base Rent or Additional Rent or other charges within five (5) days after the date payment is due and payable, the unpaid amounts will be subject to, in addition to any other remedies available to Sublessor under the terms of this Sublease or the Incorporated Provisions, (i) a late payment charge equal to four (4%) percent of the unpaid amounts and (ii) interest at the maximum legal interest rate allowed by law between contracting parties, compounded annually, for each dollar overdue until such payment is made in full, in each case to defray Sublessor’s administrative and other costs in connection therewith.  The payment of this late payment charge and/or interest charge will not constitute a waiver by Sublessor of any default by Sublessee under the Sublease. In the event any late payment charge is applied to all or any portion of Base Rent or Additional Rent, Sublessor will promptly provide written notice thereof to Sublessee; provided that Sublessor’s failure to provide such notice shall not constitute a waiver of its right to receive any amounts due under this Section 3(e) from time to time.

4.Additional Rent.

(a)Commencing on the Commencement Date, Sublessee shall also pay Sublessee’s Operating Share of Common Operating Expenses required to be paid by Sublessor to Overlandlord under the Overlease (as and when the same shall become due under the Overlease) (the “Sublessee Operating Expense Payment”).

(b)Commencing on the Commencement Date, Sublessee shall also pay Sublessee’s Tax Share of Real Property Taxes required to be paid by Sublessor to Overlandlord under the Overlease (as and when the same shall become due under the Overlease) (the “Sublessee Tax Payment”)

Sublessor shall within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of any such credit or reimbursement by Sublessor credit or reimburse Sublessee its proportionate amount of such credit or reimbursement.

5.Insurance.

(a)Sublessee shall secure and keep in force from and after the date Sublessor shall deliver possession of the Sublease Premises to Sublessee and throughout the Term, at Sublessee’s own cost and expense, such insurance with respect to the Sublease Premises and the Alterations and in such amounts (i) as is required to be secured by Sublessor, as tenant, under the Overlease, including, without limitation, the insurance requirements set forth in the Overlease, and (ii) as any superior mortgagee may reasonably require from time to time; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublessor shall maintain, at Sublessor’s sole cost and expense and with respect to earthquakes and flooding only, the “all risk” insurance required by Section 9.1.B of the Overlease covering the Sublease Premises.

(b)Sublessor, Overlandlord (and each member thereof in the event Overlandlord is a partnership, joint venture or other entity) and Overlandlord’s managing agent shall be named as additional insureds in the aforesaid insurance policies along with any superior mortgagees.  At least ten (10) days before Sublessor shall deliver possession of the Sublease Premises to Sublessee, Sublessee shall provide Sublessor with Acord 28 (or the nearest equivalent if such form is discontinued or superseded) certificates of insurance evidencing such policies, including the additional insureds as required above and reasonably satisfactory evidence of payment of premiums if requested by Sublessor.  Such certificates shall provide that, in the event of cancellation or material change, thirty (30) days prior written notice shall be given to Sublessor and all such other additional insureds.   Sublessee shall supply renewal certificates no less than thirty (30) days prior to expiration.  Each policy of insurance shall contain a waiver of the insurance carrier’s right of subrogation against Sublessor, superior mortgagee and Overlandlord as respects loss, damage or destruction by fire or other insured casualty occurring while this Sublease is in effect.

(c)Sublessor’s insurance shall contain waivers of subrogation with respect to Sublessee and add Sublessee’s name as an additional insured.

6.Incorporation of Overlease.

(all the foregoing being herein called the “Building Services”) and, subject to Sublessor’s covenants in Section 6(d) below, Sublessor shall have no liability to Sublessee on account of any failure of Overlandlord to do so, or on account of any failure of Overlandlord to observe or perform any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Overlease required to be observed or performed by Overlandlord, or on account of any other act or omission of Overlandlord.  Sublessee shall not be entitled to any abatement or diminution of rent for any period on account of the untenantability of the Sublease Premises or otherwise (including any such abatement or diminution provided for in any of the Incorporated Provisions), except that if Sublessor is entitled to and receives (or would receive based on the terms of the Overlease except that Sublessor failed to make written request of Overlandlord) an abatement of rent under the Overlease with respect to any portion of the Sublease Premises with respect to any day, then Sublessee shall be entitled to an abatement of rent hereunder with respect to such portion of the Sublease Premises with respect to such day.  

(d)Sublessor agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause Overlandlord to provide to Sublessee services it is required to provide under the Overlease to Sublessor, and (ii) obtain Overlandlord’s consent or approval whenever required by the Overlease (unless, in such instance, Sublessor is reasonably withholding its consent or approval).  If Sublessor fails to enforce Sublessor’s rights against Landlord with respect to the Sublease Premises within ten (10) days after written request from Sublessee, then Sublessee shall have the right to take such action in its own name.  For that purpose and to such extent only, all rights of Sublessor under the Overlease with respect to the Sublease Premises hereby are conferred upon and assigned to Sublessee, and Sublessee hereby is subrogated to such rights and remedies to the extent applicable to the Sublease Premises. If any such action against Overlandlord in Sublessee’s name shall be barred by reason of lack of privity, non-assignability or otherwise, then Sublessee may take such action in Sublessor’s name, provided that Sublessee shall indemnify and hold Sublessor harmless from and against Sublessee’s costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorney fees and expenses) which Sublessor suffers or incurs by reason of such action.

(e)Whenever Sublessee desires to do any act or thing which requires the consent or approval of Overlandlord:

(1)Sublessee shall not do such act or thing without first having obtained the consent or approval of both Overlandlord and Sublessor (and Sublessor’s right to withhold consent or approval shall be independent of Overlandlord’s right, but shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(2)Sublessee shall not request Overlandlord’s consent or approval directly (and no efforts by Sublessor to obtain Overlandlord’s consent or approval shall constitute Sublessor’s consent or approval or prejudice Sublessor’s right to withhold consent or approval), provided, however, that Sublessee may directly contact Overlandlord with respect to overtime Building Services; and

(3)in no event shall Sublessor be required to give its consent or approval prior to Overlandlord doing so.

 

7

 

 

 

 

 


 

(f)Sublessor shall not voluntarily terminate or voluntarily consent to the termination of the Overlease in whole or with respect to the Sublease Premises unless such termination is effected pursuant to a right of termination arising out of casualty or condemnation set forth in the Overlease (it being understood that Sublessor shall have the right to exercise any such right of termination).  So long as Sublessee has complied with its payment and performance obligations under this Sublease, Sublessor shall comply with its payment and performance obligations under the Overlease. If the Overlease shall terminate for any reason then this Sublease shall also terminate, subject to the immediately following sentence.  Sublessor shall not have any liability to Sublessee on account of any such termination unless such termination (a) shall have arisen out of a default under the Overlease by Sublessor not arising out of a default hereunder by Sublessee or (b) shall have been effected by Sublessor in violation of this Section 6(f). If the Sublease Premises shall be damaged by circumstances in which Overlandlord is required to make repairs pursuant to the provisions of the Overlease, Sublessor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the obligations of the Overlease to be fulfilled by Overlandlord in accordance with the terms of the Overlease.  No damages, compensation or claims shall be payable by Sublessor for inconvenience, loss of business or annoyance arising from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Sublease Premises or of the Building, unless Sublessor receives compensation from Overlandlord for such inconvenience, loss of business or annoyance that is expressly allocable to the Sublease Premises.

7.Use.

(a)Subject to Overlandlord’s consent to this Sublease and the terms of the Overlease, Sublessee shall use and occupy the Sublease Premises for general office and related uses and for no other purpose whatsoever (the “Permitted Uses”).

(b)Subject to and in accordance with the other terms and conditions of this Sublease and the Overlease, Sublessee shall use the Sublease Premises solely for the Permitted Uses.  Sublessee shall not use or permit or suffer the use of the Sublease Premises for any other business or purpose.  Sublessee agrees to conduct Sublessee’s business in the Sublease Premises under Sublessee’s trade name first above-appearing, which Sublessee represents it has the right to use.

8.Indemnification and Subordination.

To the extent of the Incorporated Provisions, Sublessee does hereby covenant and agree not to perform or fail to perform any act which would cause Sublessor to be in breach of any duty or obligation contained or imposed on Sublessor by any of the Incorporated Provisions with respect to the Sublease Premises except as otherwise herein specified, and Sublessee agrees to indemnify, defend (by counsel reasonably acceptable to Sublessor) and hold Sublessor  harmless against any claim or liability asserted against Sublessor by reason of Sublessee’s failure to perform such obligations.  Sublessee agrees that this Sublease is separate from and subordinate to any agreement to which the Overlease (and amendments thereto) is subject.

9.Default and Remedies.

 

8

 

 

 

 

 


 

(a)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Sublease, Sublessee shall perform all of its obligations hereunder at such times, by such dates or within such periods as Sublessor shall be required to perform its corresponding obligations under the Overlease.  In the event Sublessee shall default in the full performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions on its part to be performed under this Sublease, then, subject to Section 9(b) hereof, Sublessor shall have the same rights and remedies with respect to such default as are given to Overlandlord under the Overlease, all with the same force and effect as though the provisions of the Overlease with respect to defaults, and the rights and remedies of the Overlandlord in the event thereof, were set forth at length herein.  Sublessee further agrees that Sublessor shall have no liability of any nature whatsoever to Sublessee as a consequence of Overlandlord’s default under the Overlease, including but not limited to, Overlandlord’s breach of a covenant of quiet enjoyment.

(b)If Overlandlord shall give any notice of failure or default under the Overlease arising out of any failure by Sublessee to perform any of its obligations hereunder (other than the payment of money) then Sublessor shall promptly furnish Sublessee with a copy thereof.  If the Overlease shall provide any grace or cure period for such failure or default then the grace or cure period hereunder shall expire two (2) days prior to the date on which the grace or cure period under the Overlease shall expire. In no event shall this Section 9(b) extend the time, date or period by or within which Sublessee is required to perform.  

(c)Sublessor agrees to forward to Sublessee, promptly upon receipt thereof by Sublessor, a copy of any such notice of default received by Sublessor in its capacity as tenant under the Overlease.  Sublessee agrees to forward to Sublessor, promptly upon receipt thereof, copies of any notices received by Sublessee with respect to the Sublease Premises from Overlandlord or from any governmental authorities.

10.Sublessor’s Right to Cure.

(a)If Sublessee shall fail to perform any of its obligations hereunder, Sublessor shall have the right (but not the obligation) to perform or endeavor to perform such obligations, at Sublessee’s expense, and Sublessee shall, within five (5) business days of Sublessor’s demand from time to time, reimburse Sublessor for all costs and expenses incurred by Sublessor in doing so.  Except in case of any emergency, Sublessor shall give Sublessee reasonable prior written notice of its intention to take action pursuant to this Section 10(a), and Sublessee shall have five (5) business days from receipt of such written notice to commence and thereafter diligently pursue the performance of such obligations or Sublessor shall be entitled to take the actions provided for under this Section 10(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublessor’s rights hereunder shall not be greater than the rights of the Overlandlord under the terms of the Overlease and Sublessee’s payment rights and obligation shall be similar to Sublessor’s payment rights and obligations under the terms of the Overlease.

(b)If Sublessor makes any expenditures or incurs any obligations for the payment of money, including attorney’s fees, in connection with (i) defending any action brought by Sublessee against Sublessor or against Overlandlord and naming Sublessor which is prohibited by the terms hereof or for which Sublessee does not ultimately prevail or (ii) curing Sublessee’s defaults or in instituting, prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding, by

 

9

 

 

 

 

 


 

reason of any default of Sublessee hereunder or of Overlandlord under the Overlease, such sums paid or obligations incurred, with interest thereon at the maximum interest rate allowed by law between contracting parties, shall be paid by Sublessee to Sublessor as Additional Rent within upon demand by Sublessor. Sublessor shall have the same rights with respect thereto, and Sublessee shall have the same obligations therefor as if same constituted Base Rent hereunder.

11.Services.

(a) Subject to Section 6(c) hereof, so long as Sublessee is not in default hereunder, Sublessee shall be entitled to receive all services to be rendered to Sublessor under the Overlease in so far as such services pertain to the Sublease Premises.  Sublessee shall be responsible for all charges relating thereto as provided in the Overlease.

(b) In furtherance of Section 6(c) hereof, Sublessee does, to the extent permitted by law, and except for the wrongful acts or gross negligence of Sublessor, hereby waive any cause of action and any right to bring any action against Sublessor by reason of any act or omission of Overlandlord.  

12.Electricity and HVAC.

(a)Sublessee’s use of electricity shall not at any time exceed, either in voltage, rated capacity or overall load, the capacity of the electrical system within or serving the Sublease Premises and Sublessee shall not overload any component of such system, in each case provided that the electrical system capacity is at least the capacity available as of the Effective Date.  In no event shall Sublessee draw more electricity than that which the feeders, risers, panels and other electricity supply equipment (as equipped as of the Effective Date) serving the Sublease Premises are capable of safely supplying or which is standard for Tenant’s Permitted Use (as defined in the Overlease).

(b)In no event shall Sublessor have any obligations, liability for any defect in, or liability for any interruption or failure of, the electricity furnished to the Sublease Premises.  Sublessor shall not be deemed to have made any representation with respect to the capacity of electrical system within or serving the Sublease Premises or the amount of electricity available in the Sublease Premises.

(c)Sublessee shall pay Sublessee’s Operating Share of the electricity costs allocated to the Overlease Premises.

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Sublease to the contrary, if Sublessee is in default of Section 12(a) above, then Sublessor shall be entitled to take all reasonable steps necessary to correct such default and charge the actual cost therefor to Sublessee, which shall be paid within five (5) Business Days of Sublessor’s demand.  

13.Attornment.

(a)Sublessee agrees that if by reason of default on the part of Sublessor or Overlandlord under any ground, superior or underlying lease or any mortgage on the Building, land and/or improvements or on any such ground, superior or underlying lease, a ground,

 

10

 

 

 

 

 


 

superior or underlying lessor or a mortgagee (collectively, “Underlying Lessor”) shall enter into and become possessed of the real property of which the Sublease Premises form a part, or any part or parts of such real property either through possession or foreclosure action or proceedings, or through the issuance and delivery of a deed or a new lease of the premises covered by the ground, superior or underlying lease, then, if this Sublease is in full force and effect at such time, Sublessee shall attorn to such Underlying Lessor as its landlord, and upon such Underlying Lessor’s request, execute and deliver all instruments necessary or appropriate to confirm such attornment and recognition.

(b)Notwithstanding such attornment and recognition, such Underlying Lessor shall not (i) be liable for any previous act or omission of the Overlandlord under this Sublease, (ii) be subject to any offset, not expressly provided for in this Sublease, that shall have accrued to Sublessee hereunder against said Overlandlord, or (iii) be bound by any modification of this Sublease or by any prepayment of more than one month’s Base Rent and/or Additional Rent, unless such modification or prepayment shall have been previously approved in writing by the Underlying Lessor.  Sublessee hereunder hereby waives all rights under any present or future law to elect, by reason of the termination of such underlying lease, to terminate this Sublease or surrender possession of the Sublease Premises.

14.Security Deposit.

(a)Sublessee shall deliver to Sublessor an irrevocable commercial letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) in the amount of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) (the “Security Deposit”) upon the execution of this Sublease to be held as security for the faithful performance and observation by Sublessee of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Sublease.  Time is of the essence with respect to Sublessee’s delivery of the Letter of Credit.  It is agreed that in the event Sublessee defaults in respect of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Sublease, including, but not limited to, the payment of Base Rent and/or Additional Rent, Sublessor may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the Security Deposit to the extent required for the payment of any Base Rent or Additional Rent or any other sum which Sublessor may expend or may be required to expend by reason of Sublessee’s default in respect of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Sublease, including, but not limited to, any damages or deficiency in the re-letting of the Sublease Premises (excluding any tenant improvement allowance or customized build-out costs for the subsequent subtenant), whether such damages or deficiency accrued before or after summary proceeding or other re-entry by Sublessor.  In the event that Sublessee shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Sublease after the date fixed as the end of the Term and after delivery of entire possession of the Sublease Premises to Sublessor.    

(b)In the event of a transfer of the interest of Sublessor in the Sublease Premises, Sublessor shall have the right to transfer the Security Deposit to the transferee and Sublessor shall thereupon be released by Sublessee from all liability for the return of such Security Deposit. In such event, Sublessee agrees to look to the new sublessor solely for the return of said Security Deposit, and it is agreed that the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment made of the Security Deposit to a new Sublessor.  Sublessee further covenants that it will not assign or encumber or attempt to assign or encumber the monies deposited herein as the Security Deposit, and that neither Sublessor nor its successors or assigns

 

11

(b)In the event Sublessee, or anyone claiming status through or on behalf of Sublessee, remains in possession of the Sublease Premises after the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Sublease without the execution of a new sublease or a direct lease with Overlandlord, (i) Sublessor shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies of a landlord against a tenant holding over after the expiration of a term and to such other rights and remedies as may be provided for in this Sublease at law or in equity, and (ii) Sublessee, at the option of Sublessor, shall be deemed to be occupying the Sublease Premises as a tenant from month to month, at a monthly rental equal to the holdover amounts due under the Overlease with respect to the Overlease Premises, subject to all of the other terms of this Sublease insofar as the same are applicable to a month-to-month tenancy.

(c)If Sublessee shall hold-over or remain in possession of any portion of the Sublease Premises beyond the Expiration Date, Sublessee shall be subject not only to summary proceeding and all damages related thereto, including without limitation all claims, damages, and liabilities claimed by Overlandlord in connection with or arising out of such holdover, but also to any consequential damages arising therefrom.
