Additional Rent.




 

9.01.If Operating Costs, as defined in Sections 9.03, for the Premises for any calendar year during the term of this Lease shall exceed Base Operating Costs, as defined in Section 9.01(a), Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord as additional Rent an amount equal to Tenant's Proportionate Share, as defined in Section 9.02, of such excess a. For each calendar year during the term after the Base Year, Subtenant shall pay Subtenant’s Proportionate Share of the increase in Operating Costs for such calendar year over those incurred during the Base Year (the “Base Operating Costs”). The Base Year shall be the calendar year 2019.

 

b. Commencing as of the second year of the Sublease Term through the remainder of the term and any extensions thereof, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord each month at the same time and in the same manner as monthly base rent one twelfth (1/12th) of Sublandlord’s estimated Operating Costs payable by Subtenant for the then-current calendar year over and above said costs with respect to the Base Year. Such monthly amount may be adjusted by Sublandlord at any time on the basis of Sublandlord’s experience and reasonably anticipated costs. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the close of each calendar year, or as soon after such 120-day period as practicable, Sublandlord shall deliver to Subtenant a statement in reasonable detail of the actual amount of Operating Costs payable by Subtenant in accordance with this Article 9 for such calendar year. Sublandlord shall provide Subtenant with such additional information and substantiating documentation upon the request of Subtenant. The statement for the calendar year 2020 shall contain the calculation of the Operating Costs for the Base Year. Sublandlord’s failure to provide such statement to Subtenant within the 120-day period shall not act as a waiver and shall not excuse Subtenant or Sublandlord from making the adjustments to reflect actual costs as provided herein. If on the basis of such statement Subtenant owes an amount that is less than the estimated payments for such calendar year previously made by Subtenant, Sublandlord shall credit such excess to Subtenant against future additional rent due under this Article 9 or refund such excess if no future additional rent is due within thirty (30) days of such determination. If on the basis of such statement Subtenant owes an amount that is more than the estimated payments for such calendar year previously made by Subtenant, Subtenant shall pay the deficiency to Sublandlord within thirty (30) days after delivery of the statement. The obligations of Sublandlord and Subtenant under this Section 9.01(b) with respect to the reconciliation between the estimated and actual amounts of Operating Costs payable by Subtenant for the last year of the term shall survive the termination of the Sublease for a period of twelve months. When the final determination is made of the actual amount of Operating Costs payable by Subtenant for the year in which this Sublease terminates, Subtenant shall pay any increase due over the estimated payments within thirty (30) days of such determination and, conversely, any overpayment made by Subtenant shall be reimbursed to Subtenant by Sublandlord within thirty (30) days of such determination.

 

9.02."Subtenant's Proportionate Share" is a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of rentable square feet of the Premises as is set forth in the introductory section of this Sublease and the denominator of which is the number of rentable square feet of area in the Building. Landlord represents that the rentable square footage of the Building on the date hereof is 453,189. Subtenant's Proportionate Share may be adjusted from time to time if the area of the Premises or Building changes due to an increase or decrease in the rentable square footage. Subtenant's initial proportionate share is 12.596%.

The Letter of Credit shall be transferable and assignable multiple times by Sublandlord to Sublandlord’s successor in interest in the Building. Sublandlord shall pay all reasonable costs and shall take all steps necessary for any such proposed transfer or assignment of the Letter of Credit, provided Subtenant fully cooperates with any such transfer or assignment, and Subtenant further acknowledges that the unlimited transferability of the Letter of Credit is a material provision of this Sublease.

Sublandlord may apply the proceeds of the Letter of Credit in any order or manner to any amounts owed by Subtenant under or pursuant to this Sublease. All amounts drawn by Sublandlord under the Letter of Credit and applied in accordance with this Sublease shall immediately become the property of Sublandlord and shall be retained by Sublandlord. To the extent any amounts in excess of those applied to sums due and owing by Subtenant are drawn by Sublandlord, the excess shall be held by Sublandlord as cash security hereunder.  In no event shall any such application cure any event of default by Subtenant under this Sublease. Furthermore, in no event shall the Letter of Credit, or Sublandlord’s right to draw upon the Letter of Credit, be affected or impaired by (A) the waiver, compromise, settlement, termination or other release of the performance or observance by any person liable or to become liable for the obligations under this Sublease; (B) the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any obligation, covenant or agreement set forth in this Sublease; (C) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale of all or substantially all of the assets, marshalling of assets and liabilities, receivership, conservatorship, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment of, or any similar proceeding affecting Subtenant, or any allegation or contest of the validity of this Sublease; or (D) the taking or the omission of any of the actions referred to in this Sublease.

gives Sublandlord any right to terminate the Master Lease in the event of the partial or total damage, destruction, or condemnation, then the exercise of such right by Sublandlord will not constitute a default or breach by Sublandlord under this Sublease. If such termination will be due solely to the fault of Subtenant, Sublandlord will be entitled to recover from Subtenant and Subtenant will pay, in addition to all other sums to which Sublandlord may be entitled, all damages, losses, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) suffered or incurred by Sublandlord as a result of such termination.
