A.                                    [Intentionally Omitted]

 

B.                                    Subject to Landlord’s delivery of Premises with the base building systems in good working order, the Premises are accepted by Tenant in “as is” condition and configuration. By taking possession of the Premises, Tenant agrees that the Premises are in good order and satisfactory condition and that there are no representations or warranties by Landlord, express or implied, regarding the condition of the Premises or the Building or any permitted use thereof.  If Landlord is delayed delivering possession of the Premises or any other space due to the holdover or unlawful possession of such space by any party, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to obtain possession of the space.  Landlord represents that as of the date hereof the Premises is vacant and no parties other than Landlord and Tenant have any right to use and occupy the Premises.

 

C.                                    Landlord acknowledges that Tenant intends to take possession of and use and occupy the Premises before the Commencement Date, such possession and use and occupancy shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease and except for the cost of services requested by Tenant (e.g. after-hours HVAC usage), Tenant shall not be required to pay Rent for any days of possession and use and occupancy before the Commencement Date.  Landlord shall provide Tenant with access to the Premises immediately following the later of (i) the full-execution and delivery of this Lease by Landlord and Tenant and (ii) Landlord’s receipt of all certificates of insurance required of Tenant under this Lease.

 

IV.                               Rent.

 

A.                                    Payments.  As consideration for this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord, without any setoff or deduction, the total amount of Base Rent and Additional Rent due for the Term. “Additional Rent” means all sums (exclusive of Base Rent) that Tenant is required to pay Landlord pursuant to this Lease.  Additional Rent and Base Rent are sometimes collectively referred to as “Rent”. Tenant shall pay and be liable for all rental, sales and use taxes (but excluding income taxes), if any, imposed upon or measured by Rent under applicable Law.  Base Rent and recurring monthly charges of Additional Rent shall be due and payable in advance on the first day of each calendar month without notice or demand, provided that the installment of Base Rent for the first full calendar month of the Term shall be payable upon the execution of this Lease by Tenant.  All other items of Rent shall be due and payable by Tenant on or before 30 days after billing by Landlord.  All payments of Rent shall be by good and sufficient check or by other means (such as automatic debit or electronic transfer) acceptable to Landlord.  If Tenant fails to pay any item or installment of Rent when due, Tenant shall pay Landlord an administration fee equal to 5% of the past due Rent, provided that Tenant shall be entitled to a grace period of 5 days for the first 2 late payments of Rent in a given calendar year. If the Term commences on a day other than the first day of a calendar month or terminates on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, the monthly Base Rent and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Expenses (defined in Section IV.C.) and Taxes (defined in Section IV.D.) for the month shall be prorated based on the number of days in such

 

4

 

calendar month.  Landlord’s acceptance of less than the correct amount of Rent shall be considered a payment on account of the earliest Rent due.  No endorsement or statement on a check or letter accompanying a check or payment shall be considered an accord and satisfaction, and either party may accept the check or payment without prejudice to that party’s right to recover the balance or pursue other available remedies.  Tenant’s covenant to pay Rent is independent of every other covenant in this Lease. The foregoing sentence shall not derogate from Tenant’s rights to any abatement of Rent expressly set forth in Section VII.B. below.

 

B.                                    Payment of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Expenses and Taxes.  Commencing on the Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the total amount of Expenses (defined in Section IV.C.) and Taxes (defined in Section IV.D) for each calendar year during the Term.  On or before December 1 of each calendar year during the Term, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a good faith estimate of the total amount of Expenses and Taxes for each calendar year during the Term.  On or before the first day of each month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a monthly installment equal to one-twelfth of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Landlord’s estimate of the total amount of Expenses and Taxes. If Landlord determines that its good faith estimate was incorrect by a material amount, Landlord may provide Tenant with a revised estimate one time per calendar year.  After its receipt of the revised estimate, Tenant’s monthly payments shall be based upon the revised estimate.  If Landlord does not provide Tenant with an estimate of the total amount of Expenses and Taxes by January 1 of a calendar year, Tenant shall continue to pay monthly installments based on the previous year’s estimate until Landlord provides Tenant with the new estimate.  Upon delivery of the new estimate, an adjustment shall be made for any month for which Tenant paid monthly installments based on the previous year’s estimate.  Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of any underpayment within 30 days after receipt of the new estimate.  Any overpayment shall be refunded to Tenant within 30 days or credited against the next due future installment(s) of Additional Rent.

 

As soon as is practical following the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a reasonably detailed statement of the actual amount of Expenses and Taxes for the prior calendar year and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the actual amount of Expenses and Taxes for the prior calendar year.  If the estimated amount of Expenses and Taxes for the prior calendar year is more than the actual amount of Expenses and Taxes for the prior calendar year, Landlord shall apply any overpayment by Tenant against Additional Rent due or next becoming due, provided if the Term expires before the determination of the overpayment, Landlord shall refund any overpayment to Tenant after first deducting the amount of Rent due, if any.  If the estimated amount of Expenses and Taxes for the prior calendar year is less than the actual amount of Expenses and Taxes for such prior year, Tenant shall pay Landlord, within 30 days after its receipt of the statement of Expenses and Taxes, any underpayment for the prior calendar year.

 

C.                                    Expenses Defined.  “Expenses” means all costs and expenses incurred in each calendar year in connection with operating, maintaining, repairing, and managing the Building and the Property, including, but not limited to:

 

5

 

1.                                      Labor costs, including, wages, salaries, social security and employment taxes, medical and other types of insurance, uniforms, training, and retirement and pension plans.

 

2.                                      Management fees, the cost of equipping and maintaining a management office, accounting and bookkeeping services, legal fees not attributable to leasing or collection activity, and other administrative costs.  Landlord, by itself or through an affiliate, shall have the right to directly perform or provide any services under this Lease (including management services), provided that the cost of any such services shall not exceed the cost that would have been incurred had Landlord entered into an arms-length contract for such services with an unaffiliated entity of comparable skill and experience.

 

3.                                      Costs incurred by Landlord pursuant to the terms of Section IX hereof.

 

4.                                      The cost of services, including amounts paid to service providers and the rental and purchase cost of parts, supplies, tools and equipment.

 

5.                                      Premiums and deductibles paid by Landlord for insurance, including workers compensation, fire and extended coverage, earthquake, general liability, rental loss, elevator, boiler and other insurance customarily carried from time to time by owners of comparable office buildings.

 

6.                                      Electrical Costs (defined below) and charges for water, gas, steam and sewer, but excluding those charges for which Landlord is reimbursed by tenants.  “Electrical Costs” means:  (a) charges paid by Landlord for electricity for the Property; and (b) costs incurred in connection with an energy management program for the Property.  Electrical Costs shall be adjusted as follows:  (i) amounts received by Landlord as reimbursement for above standard electrical consumption shall be deducted from Electrical Costs; (ii) the cost of electricity incurred to provide overtime HVAC to specific tenants shall be deducted from Electrical Costs; and (iii) if Tenant is billed directly for the cost of building standard electricity to the Premises as a separate charge in addition to Base Rent, the cost of electricity to individual tenant spaces in the Building shall be deducted from Electrical Costs.

 

7.                                      The amortized cost of capital improvements (as distinguished from replacement parts or components installed in the ordinary course of business) made to the Property which are:  (a) performed primarily to reduce operating expense costs or otherwise improve the operating efficiency of the Property; or (b) required to comply with any Laws that are enacted, or first interpreted to apply to the Property, after the date of this Lease.  The cost of capital improvements shall be amortized by Landlord over the lesser of the Payback Period (defined below) or Landlord’s reasonable estimate of the useful life of such improvement.  The amortized cost of capital improvements may, at Landlord’s option, include actual or imputed interest at the rate that Landlord would reasonably be required to pay to finance the cost of the capital improvement.  “Payback

 

6

 

Period” means the reasonably estimated period of time that it takes for the cost savings resulting from a capital improvement to equal the total cost of the capital improvement.

 

If Landlord incurs Expenses for the Property together with one or more other buildings or properties, whether pursuant to a reciprocal easement agreement, common area agreement or otherwise, the shared costs and expenses shall be equitably prorated and apportioned between the Property and the other buildings or properties.  Expenses shall not include: the cost of capital improvements (except as set forth above); depreciation; interest (except as provided above for the amortization of capital improvements); principal payments of mortgage and other non-operating debts of Landlord; the cost of repairs or other work to the extent Landlord is reimbursed by insurance or condemnation proceeds; costs in connection with leasing space in the Building, including brokerage commissions; lease concessions, including rental abatements and construction allowances, granted to specific tenants; costs incurred in connection with the sale, financing or refinancing of the Building; fines, interest and penalties incurred due to the late payment of Taxes (defined in Section IV.D) or Expenses; organizational expenses associated with the creation and operation of the entity which constitutes Landlord; any penalties or damages that Landlord pays to Tenant under this Lease or to other tenants in the Building under their respective leases; and any of the items set forth on Exhibit F.  If the Building is not at least 95% occupied during any calendar year or if Landlord is not supplying services to at least 95% of the total Rentable Square Footage of the Building at any time during a calendar year, Expenses shall, at Landlord’s option, be determined as if the Building had been 95% occupied and Landlord had been supplying services to 95% of the Rentable Square Footage of the Building during that calendar year. The extrapolation of Expenses under this Section shall be performed by appropriately adjusting the cost of those components of Expenses that are impacted by changes in the occupancy of the Building.

 

D.                                    Taxes Defined.  “Taxes” shall mean:  (1) all real estate taxes and other assessments on the Building and/or Property, including, but not limited to, assessments for special improvement districts and building improvement districts, taxes and assessments levied in substitution or supplementation in whole or in part of any such taxes and assessments and the Property’s share of any real estate taxes and assessments under any reciprocal easement agreement, common area agreement or similar agreement as to the Property; (2) all personal property taxes for property that is owned by Landlord and used in connection with the operation, maintenance and repair of the Property; and (3) all costs and fees incurred in connection with seeking reductions in any tax liabilities described in (1) and (2), including, without limitation, any costs incurred by Landlord for compliance, review and appeal of tax liabilities. Without limitation, Taxes shall not include any income, profits, capital levy, franchise, capital stock, gift, estate or inheritance tax.  If an assessment is payable in installments, Taxes for the year shall include the amount of the installment and any interest due and payable during that year, provided that any assessments included in Taxes that are payable in installments shall be paid over the longest period of time permitted by law.  For all other real estate taxes, Taxes for that year shall, at Landlord’s election, include either the amount accrued, assessed or otherwise imposed for

 

7

 

the year or the amount due and payable for that year, provided that Landlord’s election shall be applied consistently throughout the Term.  If a change in Taxes is obtained for any year of the Term, then Taxes for that year will be retroactively adjusted and Landlord shall provide Tenant with a credit, if any, based on the adjustment.

 

E.                                     Audit Rights.  Tenant may, within 90 days after receiving Landlord’s statement of Expenses, give Landlord written notice (“Review Notice”) that Tenant intends to review Landlord’s records of the Expenses for the calendar year that is the subject of such statement.  Within a reasonable time after receipt of the Review Notice, Landlord shall make all pertinent records available for inspection that are reasonably necessary for Tenant to conduct its review and such records shall remain available for sixty (60) days following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s written notice stating that such records are available (the “Review Period”).  If any records are maintained at a location other than the office of the Building, Tenant may either inspect the records at such other location or pay for the reasonable cost of copying and shipping the records.  If Tenant retains an agent to review Landlord’s records, the agent must be with a licensed CPA firm.  Tenant shall be solely responsible for all costs, expenses and fees incurred for the audit unless such audit reveals that Landlord overstated all Expenses and Taxes for such calendar year by more than five percent (5%), in which case Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for its reasonable out-of-pocket audit expenses.  Within 60 days after the expiration of the Review Period, Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord written notice (an “Objection Notice”) stating in reasonable detail any objection to Landlord’s statement of Expenses and Taxes for that year.  If Tenant fails to give Landlord an Objection Notice within the 60-day period or fails to provide Landlord with a Review Notice within the 90-day period described above, Tenant shall be deemed to have approved Landlord’s statement of Expenses and Taxes and shall be barred from raising any claims regarding the Expenses and Taxes for that year.  If Tenant provides Landlord with a timely Objection Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith to resolve any issues raised in Tenant’s Objection Notice.  If Landlord and Tenant determine that Expenses and/or Taxes for the calendar year are less than reported, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a credit against the next installment of Rent in the amount of the overpayment by Tenant.  Likewise, if Landlord and Tenant determine that Expenses and/or Taxes for the calendar year are greater than reported, Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of any underpayment within 30 days.  The records obtained by Tenant shall be treated as confidential.  In no event shall Tenant be permitted to examine Landlord’s records or to dispute any statement of Expenses or Taxes if Tenant is not then current in the payment of all Rent then due and owing under this Lease.  Notwithstanding the issuance of a Review Notice or Objection Notice, Tenant shall pay all amounts set forth in the statement of Expenses pending resolution of the matters raised in the Objection Notice.

 

V.                                    Compliance with Laws; Use.

 

The Premises shall be used only for the Permitted Use and for no other use whatsoever.  Tenant shall not use or permit the use of the Premises for any purpose which is illegal, dangerous to persons or property or which, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, unreasonably

 

8

 

disturbs any other tenants of the Building or interferes with the operation of the Building.  Tenant shall comply with all Laws, including the Americans with Disabilities Act, regarding the operation of Tenant’s business and the use, condition, configuration and occupancy of the Premises.  Tenant, within 10 days after receipt, shall provide Landlord with copies of any written notices it receives regarding a violation or alleged violation of any Laws with respect to the Property.  Tenant shall comply with the rules and regulations of the Building attached as Exhibit B and such other reasonable rules and regulations adopted by Landlord from time to time so long as such other rules and regulations do not materially derogate from Tenant’s rights under this Lease.  Tenant shall also cause its agents, contractors, subcontractors, employees, customers, and subtenants to comply with all such rules and regulations.  Landlord shall not knowingly discriminate against Tenant in Landlord’s enforcement of the rules and regulations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord shall comply with all Laws applicable to those items that are Landlord’s responsibility pursuant to Section IX.B; provided, however, that Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for non-compliance with such Laws unless, subject to the provisions of this Lease (including without limitation Sections XIV, XVI and XXI), such non-compliance results in a breach of Landlord’s express obligations under this Lease.  Landlord represents that, as of the date hereof, Landlord, to its actual knowledge, has received no written notice from any applicable governmental authorities that the Premises is not in compliance with applicable Law.

 

VI.                               Security Deposit.

 

A.                                    The Security Deposit shall be delivered to Landlord in the form of a letter of credit complying with the LOC Criteria (defined below) (the “Letter of Credit”) upon the execution of this Lease by Tenant and shall be held by Landlord without liability for interest (unless required by Law) as security for the performance of Tenant’s obligations.  The Security Deposit is not an advance payment of Rent or a measure of Tenant’s liability for damages.  Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy, use all or a portion of the Security Deposit to satisfy past due Rent or to cure any uncured default by Tenant that remains uncured following all applicable grace, notice and cure periods.  If Landlord uses the Security Deposit, Tenant shall on demand restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Landlord shall return any unapplied portion of the Security Deposit to Tenant (or shall return the original Letter of Credit and all amendments thereto) within forty-five (45) days after the later to occur of: (1) the determination of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Expenses and Taxes for the final year of the Term (which shall be made within 120 days following the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease); (2) the date Tenant surrenders possession of the Premises to Landlord in accordance with this Lease; or (3) the Termination Date.  If Landlord transfers its interest in the Premises, Landlord may assign or transfer the Security Deposit to the transferee and, following the assignment, Landlord shall have no further liability for the return of the Security Deposit. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its other accounts.

 

B.                                    The Letter of Credit (and any renewals or replacements thereof) shall:

 

(i)                                     be in the initial amount of $80,625.00;

 

9

 

(ii)                              be issued on a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, Landlord hereby acknowledging that the form attached hereto as Exhibit G is acceptable to Landlord;

 

(iii)                           name Landlord as its beneficiary;

 

(iv)                          be transferable in whole and not in part by Landlord to Landlord’s transferee, without Tenant’s approval, should Landlord transfer or convey its interest in the Premises;

 

(v)                             be drawn on an FDIC insured financial institution reasonably satisfactory to the Landlord and having a minimum corporate credit rating from Standard and Poor’s Professional Rating Service of “A” or a comparable minimum credit rating from Moody’s Professional Rating Service; Landlord hereby agreeing that Silicon Valley Bank is acceptable to Landlord as the issuer of the Letter of Credit;

 

(vi)                          be for a term of not less than one (1) year; and

 

(vii)                       allow draws on the Letter of Credit (I) at a bank counter located within the greater metropolitan Boston, MA area and greater metropolitan Washington, DC area and/or (II) by facsimile ((i) - (vii) being referred to herein as the “LOC Criteria”).

 

C.                                    Tenant agrees that it shall from time to time, as necessary, whether as a result of a draw on the Letter of Credit by Landlord pursuant to the terms hereof or as a result of the expiration of the Letter of Credit then in effect, renew, replace or amend the original and any subsequent Letter of Credit so that a Letter of Credit, in the amount required hereunder, is in effect until a date which is at least forty-five (45) days after the Termination Date.  If (x) Tenant fails to furnish such renewal or replacement at least thirty (30) days prior to the stated expiration date of the Letter of Credit then held by Landlord and/or (y) the corporate credit rating of the issuing institution drops below the minimum set forth above, Landlord may draw upon such Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds thereof (and such proceeds need not be segregated) as a cash Security Deposit pursuant to the terms of this Section VI. Any renewal, replacement or amendment of the original or any subsequent Letter of Credit shall meet the requirements for the original Letter of Credit as set forth above.  If Landlord draws on the Letter of Credit as permitted in this Lease, then, within five (5) Business Days following written demand of Landlord, Tenant shall restore the amount available under the Letter of Credit to its original amount by providing Landlord with an amendment to the Letter of Credit evidencing that the amount available under the Letter of Credit has been restored to its original amount.  Should Landlord elect to draw the full amount of the Letter of Credit, Tenant expressly waives any rights it might otherwise have to prevent Landlord from drawing on the Letter of Credit and agrees that an action for direct damages and not injunctive or other equitable relief shall be Tenant’s sole remedy in the event Tenant disputes Landlord’s claims to any such amounts.

 

D.                                    Landlord shall have the right to pledge or assign its interest in the Security Deposit (including the Letter of Credit and proceeds thereof) to any lender holding a security interest in the Premises. In the event of a sale or transfer of Landlord’s estate or interest in the property of which the Premises is a part,

 

10

 

Landlord shall have the right to transfer the Security Deposit (including the Letter of Credit and proceeds thereof), to the extent not applied as set forth above, to the vendee or transferee as the new landlord under this Lease, and to the extent the Security Deposit (including the Letter of Credit and proceeds thereof to the extent not applied as set forth above) is so transferred, Landlord shall be considered released by Tenant from all liability for the return of the Security Deposit (including the Letter of Credit and proceeds thereof). No mortgagee or purchaser of any or all of the Building at any foreclosure proceeding brought under the provisions of any mortgage shall (regardless of whether the Lease is at the time in question subordinated to the lien of any mortgage) be liable to Tenant or any other person for any or all of such sums or the return of any Letter of Credit (or any other or additional Security Deposit or other payments made by Tenant under the provisions of this Lease), unless Landlord has actually delivered the Security Deposit (including the Letter of Credit and proceeds thereof), to such mortgagee or purchaser. If requested by any such mortgagee or purchaser, Tenant shall obtain an amendment to the Letter of Credit that names such mortgagee or purchaser as the beneficiary thereof in lieu of Landlord.

 

E.                                     If the Security Deposit is then held by Landlord as a Letter of Credit, then, provided there has been no Default under the Lease on or prior to January 1, 2014 (the “First Burn-down Date”), the amount of the Security Deposit shall reduce to $64,500.00 upon Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of either (i) a replacement Letter of Credit conforming with the LOC Criteria in such amount, and Landlord shall return to Tenant the existing Letter of Credit held by Landlord within fifteen (15) days following the later of the First Burn-down Date or the date the $64,500.00 replacement Letter of Credit is received or (ii) an amendment to the then-existing Letter of Credit conforming with the LOC Criteria in such amount, provided that Landlord shall have first received from the bank or Tenant a request for Landlord’s consent to such amendment, Landlord agreeing that it shall provide its consent thereto and deliver such consent to the bank that issued to the Letter of Credit (on such bank’s form, if applicable) unless Tenant is in Default under this Lease on or prior to the First Burn-down Date.  Prior to the later of Landlord’s receipt of the $64,500.00 replacement Letter of Credit (or amendment, if applicable) and the First Burn-down Date, Landlord shall be entitled, pursuant to the terms of this Section VI, to draw up to the full amount of the $80,625.00 Letter of Credit as if such amount thereof was the then-current Security Deposit.  If Tenant is in Default under this Lease on or prior to Landlord’s receipt of the $64,500.00 replacement Letter of Credit (or amendment, if applicable), then effective as of the date of such Default Tenant shall not be entitled to the reduction in the amount of the Security Deposit, and the amount of the Security Deposit shall remain at $80,625.00 for the remainder of the Term.  If the Security Deposit is then held by Landlord as cash pursuant to Section VI.C. above, then, provided there has been no Default under the Lease on or prior to the First Burn-down Date, the amount of the Security Deposit shall reduce to $64,500.00 upon the First Burn-down Date, and Landlord shall return the balance to Tenant within fifteen (15) days following the First Burn-down Date.  If Tenant is in Default under this Lease on or prior to the First Burn-down Date, then effective as of the date of such Default Tenant shall not be entitled to the reduction in the amount of the Security Deposit, and the amount of the Security Deposit shall remain at $80,625.00 for the remainder of the Term.

 

11

 

F.                                      If the Security Deposit is then held by Landlord as a Letter of Credit, then, provided there has been no Default under the Lease on or prior to January 1, 2015 (the “Second Burn-down Date”), the amount of the Security Deposit shall reduce to $48,375.00 upon Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of either (i) a replacement Letter of Credit conforming with the LOC Criteria in such amount, and Landlord shall return to Tenant the existing Letter of Credit held by Landlord within fifteen (15) days following the later of the Second Burn-down Date or the date the $48,375.00 replacement Letter of Credit is received or (ii) an amendment to the then-existing Letter of Credit conforming with the LOC Criteria in such amount, provided that Landlord shall have first received from the bank or Tenant a request for Landlord’s consent to such amendment, Landlord agreeing that it shall provide its consent thereto and deliver such consent to the bank that issued to the Letter of Credit (on such bank’s form, if applicable) unless Tenant is in Default under this Lease on or prior to the Second Burn-down Date.  Prior to the later of Landlord’s receipt of the $48,375.00 replacement Letter of Credit (or amendment, if applicable) and the Second Burn-down Date, Landlord shall be entitled, pursuant to the terms of this Section VI, to draw up to the full amount of the Letter of Credit then held by Landlord as if such amount thereof was the then-current Security Deposit.  If Tenant is in Default under this Lease on or prior to Landlord’s receipt of the $48,375.00 replacement Letter of Credit (or amendment, if applicable), then effective as of the date of such Default Tenant shall not be entitled to the reduction in the amount of the Security Deposit, and the amount of the Security Deposit shall remain at $64,500.00 for the remainder of the Term.  If the Security Deposit is then held by Landlord as cash pursuant to Section VI.C. above, then, provided there has been no Default under the Lease on or prior to the Second Burn-down Date, the amount of the Security Deposit shall reduce to $48,375.00 upon the Second Burn-down Date, and Landlord shall return the balance to Tenant within fifteen (15) days following the Second Burn-down Date.  If Tenant is in Default under this Lease on or prior to the Second Burn-down Date, then effective as of the date of such Default Tenant shall not be entitled to the reduction in the amount of the Security Deposit, and the amount of the Security Deposit shall remain at $64,500.00 for the remainder of the Term.

 

G.                                    To the extent Landlord is ever in possession of more than one Letter of Credit following the First Burn-down Date and/or Second Burn-down Date, Landlord shall only be entitled to draw upon the Letter of Credit then matching the amount of the Security Deposit under this Lease (subject to Tenant’s obligation to replenish the amount available under the Letter of Credit as set forth in Section 6.C. above).  To the extent Landlord is ever in possession of both an unapplied cash Security Deposit and a Letter of Credit Security Deposit, Landlord shall only be entitled to draw from either or both sources an amount not more than the then-current amount of the Security Deposit in the aggregate, provided that the foregoing shall in no event limit Tenant’s obligation to replenish the cash Security Deposit and/or the amount available under the Letter of Credit as set forth in Sections 6.A. and 6.C. above, as applicable.

 

VII.                          Services to be Furnished by Landlord.

 

A.                                    Landlord agrees to furnish Tenant with the following services: (1) water service for use in the lavatories and any kitchen area in the Premises; (2) heat and air

 

12

 

conditioning equipment serving the Premises (Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of all utilities serving such heat and air conditioning equipment); (3) maintenance and repair of the Property as described in Section IX.B.; (4) landscaping and snowplowing of Common Areas exterior to the Building; (5) electricity to the Premises for general office use, in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions in Article X; and (6) such other services as Landlord reasonably determines are necessary or appropriate for the Property.

 

B.                                    Landlord’s failure to furnish, or any interruption or termination of, services due to the application of Laws, the failure of any equipment, the performance of repairs, improvements or alterations, or the occurrence of any event or cause beyond the reasonable control of Landlord (a “Service Failure”) shall not render Landlord liable to Tenant, constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant, give rise to an abatement of Rent, nor relieve Tenant from the obligation to fulfill any covenant or agreement. However, if the Premises, or a material portion of the Premises, is made untenantable for a period in excess of 3 consecutive Business Days as a result of the Service Failure, then Tenant, as its sole remedy, shall be entitled to receive an abatement of Rent payable hereunder during the period beginning on the 4th consecutive Business Day of the Service Failure and ending on the day the service has been restored.  If the entire Premises has not been rendered untenantable by the Service Failure, the amount of abatement that Tenant is entitled to receive shall be prorated based upon the percentage of the Premises rendered untenantable and not used by Tenant. In no event, however, shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage, including the theft of Tenant’s Property (defined in Article XV), arising out of or in connection with the failure of any security services, personnel or equipment.

 

VIII.                     Leasehold Improvements.

 

All improvements to the Premises (collectively, “Leasehold Improvements”) shall be owned by Landlord and shall remain upon the Premises without compensation to Tenant. However, Landlord, by written notice to Tenant within 30 days prior to the Termination Date, may require Tenant to remove, at Tenant’s expense: (1) Cable (defined in Section IX.A) installed by or for the exclusive benefit of Tenant and located in the Premises or other portions of the Building; and (2) any Leasehold Improvements that are performed by or for the benefit of Tenant and, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, are of a nature that would require removal and repair costs that are materially in excess of the removal and repair costs associated with standard office improvements (collectively referred to as “Required Removables”).  Without limitation, it is agreed that Required Removables include internal stairways, raised floors, personal baths and showers, vaults, rolling file systems, laboratory equipment and structural alterations and modifications of any type.  The Required Removables designated by Landlord shall be removed by Tenant before the Termination Date.  Tenant shall repair damage caused by the installation or removal of Required Removables.  If Tenant fails to remove any Required Removables or perform related repairs in a timely manner, Landlord, at Tenant’s expense, may remove and dispose of the Required Removables and perform the required repairs.  Tenant, within 30 days after receipt of an invoice, shall reimburse Landlord for the reasonable costs of same incurred by Landlord.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant, at the time it requests approval for a proposed Alteration (defined in Section IX.C), may request in writing that Landlord advise Tenant whether the Alteration or any portion of the Alteration will be designated as a Required Removable.  Within 10 business days after receipt of Tenant’s request, Landlord

 

13

 

shall advise Tenant in writing as to which portions of the Alteration, if any, will be considered to be Required Removables.

 

IX.                              Repairs and Alterations.

 

A.                                    Tenant’s Repair Obligations.  Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly perform all maintenance and repairs to the Premises that are not Landlord’s express responsibility under this Lease, and shall keep the Premises in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant’s repair obligations include, without limitation, repairs to: (1) floor covering; (2) interior partitions; (3) doors; (4) the interior side of demising walls; (5) electronic, phone and data cabling and related equipment (collectively, “Cable”) that is installed by or for the exclusive benefit of Tenant and located in the Premises or other portions of the Building; (6) air conditioning and heating units exclusively serving the Premises; (7) private showers and kitchens, including hot water heaters, plumbing, and similar facilities serving Tenant exclusively; and (8) Alterations performed by contractors retained by Tenant, including related HVAC balancing.  All work shall be performed in accordance with the rules and procedures described in Section IX.C. below.  If Tenant fails to make any repairs to the Premises for more than 15 days after notice from Landlord (although notice shall not be required if there is an emergency), Landlord may make the repairs, and Tenant shall pay the reasonable cost of the repairs to Landlord within 30 days after receipt of an invoice, together with an administrative charge in an amount equal to 10% of the cost of the repairs.

 

B.                                    Landlord’s Repair Obligations.  Landlord shall keep and maintain in good repair and working order and make repairs to and perform maintenance upon: (1) structural elements of the Building; (2) mechanical (including HVAC), electrical, plumbing and fire/life safety systems serving the Common Areas of the Building; (3) Common Areas; (4) the roof of the Building; (5) exterior windows of the Building; (6) elevators serving the Building and (7) the base building sprinkler system serving the Premises. Landlord shall promptly make repairs (considering the nature and urgency of the repair) for which Landlord is responsible.

 

C.                                    Alterations.  Tenant shall not make alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises or install any Cable in the Premises or other portions of the Building (collectively referred to as “Alterations”) without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. However, Landlord’s consent shall not be required for any Alteration that satisfies all of the following criteria (a “Cosmetic Alteration”):  (1) is of a cosmetic nature such as painting, wallpapering, hanging pictures and installing carpeting; (2) is not visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building; (3) will not affect the systems or structure of the Building; (4) does not require work to be performed inside the walls or above the ceiling of the Premises; and (5) the cost is not in excess of $50,000.00 in any one calendar year.  However, even though consent is not required, the performance of Cosmetic Alterations shall be subject to all the other provisions of this Section IX.C.  Prior to starting work, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with plans and specifications reasonably acceptable to Landlord; names of contractors reasonably acceptable to Landlord (provided that Landlord may designate specific contractors with respect to Building systems provided that

 

14

 

if such contractors are affiliated or related to Landlord or its affiliates then such contractors must charge competitive market rates); copies of contracts; necessary permits and approvals; evidence of contractor’s and subcontractor’s insurance in amounts reasonably required by Landlord; and any security for performance that is reasonably required by Landlord (provided that no security shall be required for the Tenant Improvements).  Changes to the plans and specifications must also be submitted to Landlord for its approval.  Alterations shall be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner using materials of a quality that is at least equal to the quality reasonably designated by Landlord as the minimum standard for the Building.  Landlord may designate reasonable rules, regulations and procedures for the performance of work in the Building and, to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid disruption to the occupants of the Building, shall have the right to designate the time when Alterations may be performed.  Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within 30 days after receipt of an invoice for reasonable and actual sums paid by Landlord for third party examination of Tenant’s plans for non-Cosmetic Alterations; provided that (i) “third-party examination” shall not include review by Landlord’s property manager, (ii) plans shall not be sent for third party review unless Landlord’s property manager reasonably determines that it does not have the internal expertise to review a certain component of the plans (e.g., without limitation, review requiring expertise of a structural engineer)  (iii) in the event the cost of such third party review would in Landlord’s reasonable estimation exceed $1,500, Landlord will notify Tenant in sufficient time so that the approval request for an Alteration may be modified or withdrawn; and (iv) this sentence shall not be applicable to the initial Tenant Improvements (which shall insteadbe governed by the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit D).  In addition, within 30 days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord, Tenant shall pay Landlord a fee for Landlord’s oversight and coordination of any non-Cosmetic Alterations equal to 5% of the permitted cost of the non-Cosmetic Alterations; provided that no such fee shall be due for the initial Tenant Improvements.  Upon completion, Tenant shall furnish “as-built” plans (except for Cosmetic Alterations), completion affidavits, full and final waivers of lien and receipted bills covering all labor and materials.  Tenant shall assure that the Alterations comply with (i) all Laws and (ii) all insurance requirements set forth in this Lease and/or provided to Tenant in writing from Landlord’s insurers.  Landlord’s approval of an Alteration shall not be a representation by Landlord that the Alteration complies with applicable Laws or will be adequate for Tenant’s use.

 

X.                                   Use of Utility Services by Tenant.

 

A.                                    Electricity, gas and water/sewer used by Tenant in the Premises shall be paid for by Tenant by separate charge billed by the applicable utility company and payable directly by Tenant.  Electrical service to the Premises may be furnished by one or more companies providing electrical generation, transmission and distribution services, and the cost of electricity may consist of several different components or separate charges for such services, such as generation, distribution and stranded cost charges.  Landlord shall have the exclusive right to select any company providing electrical, gas and water/sewer service to the Premises, to aggregate the electrical service for the Property and Premises with

 

15

 

other buildings, to purchase electricity through a broker and/or buyers group and to change the providers and manner of purchasing electricity.

 

B.                                    Tenant’s use of electrical service shall not exceed, either in voltage, rated capacity or overall load 12 watts per rentable square foot of the Premises.  If Tenant requests permission to consume excess electrical service, Landlord may refuse to consent or may condition consent upon conditions that Landlord reasonably elects (including, without limitation, the installation of utility service upgrades, meters, submeters, air handlers or cooling units), and the additional usage (to the extent permitted by Law), installation and maintenance costs shall be paid by Tenant.

 

XI.                              Entry by Landlord.

 

Landlord, its agents, contractors and representatives may enter the Premises to inspect or show the Premises, to clean and make repairs, alterations or additions to the Premises, and to conduct or facilitate repairs, alterations or additions to any portion of the Building, including other tenants’ premises.  Except in emergencies or to provide Building services after Normal Business Hours, Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable prior notice of entry into the Premises, which may be given orally to Tenant’s office manager.  If reasonably necessary for the protection and safety of Tenant and its employees, Landlord shall have the right to temporarily close all or a portion of the Premises to perform repairs, alterations and additions.  However, except in emergencies, Landlord will not close the Premises if the work can reasonably be completed on weekends and after Normal Business Hours.  Entry by Landlord shall not constitute constructive eviction or entitle Tenant to an abatement or reduction of Rent.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except in the event of emergency, in which case no escort shall be required, Landlord shall only be permitted to enter the areas of the Premises labeled as “Limited Access Area” on Exhibit A (the “Limited Access Areas”) when accompanied by a representative of Tenant.  Landlord shall have no obligation to provide any services requiring access to a Limited Access Area requested or required of Landlord under this Lease if no Tenant representative is made available at the time Landlord elects to provide such service.

 

XII.                         Assignment and Subletting.

 

A.                                    Except in connection with a Permitted Transfer (defined in Section XII.E. below), Tenant shall not assign, sublease, transfer or encumber any interest in this Lease or allow any third party to use any portion of the Premises (collectively or individually, a “Transfer”) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld if Landlord does not elect to exercise its termination rights under Section XII.B below.  Without limitation, it is agreed that Landlord’s consent shall not be considered unreasonably withheld if:  (1) the proposed transferee’s financial condition does not meet the criteria Landlord uses to select Building tenants having similar leasehold obligations; (2) the proposed transferee’s business would result in a violation of another tenant’s rights; (3) the proposed transferee is a governmental agency; (4) the proposed transferee is an occupant of the Building and Landlord then has other space available in the Building to meet such transferee’s requirements (or such space is reasonably expected to become available within ninety (90) days of Tenant’s request); (5) Tenant is in default which is then continuing after the expiration of

 

16

 

the notice and cure periods in this Lease; or (6) any portion of the Building or Premises would likely become subject to additional or different Laws as a consequence of the proposed Transfer. Tenant shall not be entitled to receive monetary damages based upon a claim that Landlord unreasonably withheld its consent to a proposed Transfer and Tenant’s sole remedy shall be an action to enforce any such provision through specific performance or declaratory judgment.  Any attempted Transfer in violation of this Article shall, at Landlord’s option, be void.  Consent by Landlord to one or more Transfer(s) shall not operate as a waiver of Landlord’s rights to approve any subsequent Transfers. In no event shall any Transfer or Permitted Transfer release or relieve Tenant from any obligation under this Lease.

 

B.                                    As part of its request for Landlord’s consent to a Transfer, Tenant shall provide Landlord with financial statements for the proposed transferee, a complete copy of the proposed assignment, sublease and other contractual documents and such other information as Landlord may reasonably request.  Landlord shall, by written notice to Tenant within 20 days of its receipt of the required information and documentation, (1) consent to the Transfer by the execution of a consent agreement in a form reasonably designated by Landlord; (2) reasonably refuse to consent to the Transfer in writing; or (3) elect to terminate this Lease with respect to the portion of the Premises that Tenant is proposing to assign or sublet.  Any such termination shall be effective on the proposed effective date of the Transfer for which Tenant requested consent.  Tenant shall pay Landlord a review fee of $1,000.00 for Landlord’s review of any requested Transfer, provided if Landlord’s actual reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) exceed $1,000.00, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its actual reasonable costs and expenses in lieu of a fixed review fee (not to exceed $10,000).  No review fee shall be required for a Permitted Transfer.

 

C.                                    Tenant shall pay Landlord 50% of all rent and other consideration which Tenant receives as a result of a Transfer that is in excess of the Rent payable to Landlord for the portion of the Premises and Term covered by the Transfer.  Tenant shall pay Landlord for Landlord’s share of any excess within 30 days after Tenant’s receipt of such excess consideration.  Tenant may first deduct from the excess all reasonable and customary expenses directly incurred by Tenant attributable to the Transfer (other than Landlord’s review fee), including brokerage fees, legal fees, tenant concessions and construction costs.  If Tenant is in Monetary Default (defined in Section XIX.A. below), Landlord may require that all sublease payments be made directly to Landlord, in which case Tenant shall receive a credit against Rent in the amount of any payments received (less Landlord’s share of any excess).  This Section XII.C. shall not apply to a Permitted Transfer.

 

D.                                    Except as provided below with respect to a Permitted Transfer, if Tenant is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or similar entity, and if the entity which owns or controls a majority of the voting shares/rights at any time changes for any reason (including but not limited to a merger, consolidation or reorganization), such change of ownership or control shall constitute a Transfer.  The foregoing shall not apply so long as Tenant is an entity whose outstanding

 

17

 

stock is listed on a recognized security exchange, or if at least 80% of its voting stock is owned by another entity, the voting stock of which is so listed.

 

E.                                     Tenant may (x) assign its entire interest under this Lease to a successor to Tenant by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar transaction resulting in a change of control of Tenant or (y) assign this Lease or sublease all or any portion of the Premises to an Affiliate (defined below), in each case without the consent of Landlord, provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied  (a “Permitted Transfer”):  (1) Tenant is not then in Default under this Lease; (2) Tenant’s successor shall own all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant; (3) Tenant’s successor shall have a net worth which is at least equal to Tenant’s net worth at the date of this Lease; (4) the permitted use under the Transfer document does not allow the Premises to be used for retail purposes or any other purpose not permitted under this Lease; and (5) Tenant shall give Landlord written notice at least 10 days prior to the effective date of the proposed Permitted Transfer  Tenant’s notice to Landlord shall include information and documentation showing that each of the above conditions has been satisfied.  If requested by Landlord, Tenant’s successor shall sign a commercially reasonable form of assumption agreement.  Notwithstanding any such Permitted Transfer, the original Tenant named above shall remain primarily liable under the Lease.  “Affiliate” shall mean an entity controlled by, controlling or under common control with Tenant (for such period of time as such entity continues to be controlled by, controlling or under common control with Tenant, it being agreed that the subsequent sale or transfer of stock resulting in a change in voting control, or any other transaction(s) having the overall effect that such entity ceases to be controlled by, controlling or under common control with Tenant, shall be treated as if such sale or transfer or transaction(s) were, for all purposes, an assignment of this Lease governed by the provisions of this Section).

 

XIII.                    Liens.

 

Tenant shall not permit mechanic’s or other liens to be placed upon the Property, Premises or Tenant’s leasehold interest in connection with any work or service done or purportedly done by or upon the request of Tenant.  If a lien is so placed, Tenant shall, within 15 days of notice from Landlord of the filing of the lien, fully discharge the lien by settling the claim which resulted in the lien or by bonding or insuring over the lien in the manner prescribed by the applicable lien Law.  If Tenant fails to discharge the lien, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may bond or insure over the lien or otherwise discharge the lien.  Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any amount paid by Landlord to bond or insure over the lien or discharge the lien, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees (if and to the extent permitted by Law) within 30 days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord waives all statutory and contractual liens (other than judgment liens) which it may be entitled to assert against any of Tenant’s property as security for the payment of Rent or the performance of any other obligation of Tenant hereunder.

 

XIV.                     Indemnity and Waiver of Claims.

 

A.                                    Except to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any Landlord Related Parties (defined below), Tenant shall indemnify, defend

 

18

 

and hold Landlord, its trustees, members, shareholders, principals, beneficiaries, partners, officers, directors, employees, Mortgagee(s) (defined in Article XXVI) and agents (“Landlord Related Parties”) harmless against and from all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, actions, costs, charges and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other professional fees (if and to the extent permitted by Law), which are imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Landlord or any of the Landlord Related Parties and arising out of or in connection with any damage or injury occurring in the Premises or any acts or omissions (including violations of Law) of Tenant, the Tenant Related Parties (defined below) or any of Tenant’s transferees, contractors or licensees on or about the Property.

 

B.                                    Except to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or any Tenant Related Parties (defined below), Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenant, its trustees, members, shareholders, principals, beneficiaries, partners, officers, directors, employees, lenders and agents (“Tenant Related Parties”) harmless against and from all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, actions, costs, charges and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other professional fees (if and to the extent permitted by Law), which are imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Tenant or any of the Tenant Related Parties and arising out of or in connection with the acts or omissions (including violations of Law) of Landlord, the Landlord Related Parties or any of Landlord’s contractors on or about the Property.

 

C.                                    Landlord and the Landlord Related Parties shall not be liable for, and Tenant waives  with respect to Landlord and the Landlord Related Parties, all claims for loss or damage to Tenant’s business or loss, theft or damage to Tenant’s Property or the property of any person claiming by, through or under Tenant resulting from: (1) wind or weather; (2) the failure of any sprinkler, heating or air-conditioning equipment, any electric wiring or any gas, water or steam pipes; (3) the backing up of any sewer pipe or downspout; (4) the bursting, leaking or running of any tank, water closet, drain or other pipe; (5) water, snow or ice upon or coming through the roof, skylight, stairs, doorways, windows, walks or any other place upon or near the Building; (6) any act or omission of any party other than Landlord or Landlord Related Parties; and (7) any causes not reasonably within the control of Landlord.  Tenant shall insure itself against such losses under Article XV below.

 

XV.                          Insurance.

 

Tenant shall carry and maintain the following insurance (“Tenant’s Insurance”), at its sole cost and expense:  (1) Commercial General Liability Insurance applicable to the Premises and its appurtenances providing, on an occurrence basis, a minimum combined single limit of $3,000,000.00; (2) All Risk Property/Business Interruption Insurance, excluding flood and earthquake, written at replacement cost value and with a replacement cost endorsement covering all of Tenant’s trade fixtures, equipment, furniture and other personal property within the Premises (“Tenant’s Property”); (3) environmental site liability coverage providing, on an occurrence basis, a minimum combined single limit of $2,000,000.00; (4) Workers’ Compensation Insurance as required by the state in which the Premises is located and in

 

19

 

amounts as may be required by applicable statute; and (5) Employers Liability Coverage of at least $1,000,000.00 per occurrence.  Any company writing any of Tenant’s Insurance shall have an A.M. Best rating of not less than A-VIII.  All Commercial General Liability Insurance and environmental site liability policies shall name Tenant as a named insured and Landlord (or any successor), Lincoln Property Company, and their successors and assigns as their interest shall appear, as additional insureds.  All policies of Tenant’s Insurance shall contain endorsements that the insurer(s) shall give Landlord at least 30 days’ advance written notice of any change, cancellation, termination or lapse of insurance.  Tenant shall provide Landlord with a certificate of insurance evidencing Tenant’s Insurance prior to the earlier to occur of the Commencement Date or the date Tenant is provided with possession of the Premises for any reason, and upon renewals at least 15 days prior to the expiration of the insurance coverage.  So long as the same is available at commercially reasonable rates, Landlord shall maintain so called All Risk property insurance on the Building at replacement cost value, as reasonably estimated by Landlord.  Except as specifically provided to the contrary, the limits of either party’s insurance shall not limit such party’s liability under this Lease.

 

XVI.                     Subrogation.

 

Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant hereby waive and shall cause their respective insurance carriers to waive any and all rights of recovery, claim, action or causes of action against the other and their respective trustees, principals, shareholders, beneficiaries, partners, officers, directors, agents, and employees, for any loss or damage that may occur to Landlord or Tenant or any party claiming by, through or under Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, with respect to Tenant’s Property, the Building, the Premises, any additions or improvements to the Building, Premises or the Property, or any contents thereof, including all rights of recovery, claims, actions or causes of action arising out of the negligence of Landlord or any Landlord Related Parties or the negligence of Tenant or any Tenant Related Parties, which loss or damage is (or would have been, had the insurance required by this Lease been carried or if Tenant had otherwise carried coverage for broad form water damage including earthquake sprinkler leakage) covered by insurance.

 

XVII.                Casualty Damage.

 

A.                                    If all or any part of the Premises is damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord in writing.  During any period of time that all or any portion of the Premises is rendered untenantable as a result of a fire or other casualty, the Rent shall abate for the portion of the Premises that is untenantable and not used by Tenant.  Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease if:  (1) the Building shall be damaged so that, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Building shall be required (whether or not the Premises has been damaged) and Landlord terminates all other leases in the Building; (2) Landlord is not permitted by Law to rebuild the Building in substantially the same form as existed before the fire or casualty; (3) the Premises have been materially damaged and there is less than 1 year of the Term remaining on the date of the casualty; (4) any Mortgagee requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to the payment of the mortgage debt; (5) a material uninsured loss to the Building occurs; (6) any restoration would be considered “construction” with respect to the Premises within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.856; or (7) such restoration would not be permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated July 1, 2007 by and between J.P.

 

20

 

Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Corp., as Depositor, Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, CWCapital Asset Management LLC, as Special Servicer and Lasalle Bank National Association, as Trustee, to which the Landlord is subject.  Landlord may exercise its right to terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing within 60 days after the date of the casualty.  Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease if:  (I) Landlord is not permitted by Law to rebuild the portion of the Building in which the Premises is located to substantially the same form as existed before the fire or casualty or (II) the Premises have been materially damaged (i.e. at least 33% is not habitable) and there is less than 1 year of the Term remaining on the date of the casualty.  Tenant may exercise its right to terminate this Lease by notifying Landlord in writing within 60 days after the date of the casualty.  If Landlord does not terminate this Lease, Landlord shall commence and proceed with reasonable diligence to repair and restore the Building and the Leasehold Improvements (excluding any Alterations that were performed by Tenant in violation of this Lease).  If such repair and restoration is not completed within two hundred seventy (270) days of the casualty, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease at any time thereafter until such completion occurs by notifying Landlord in writing. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage to Tenant’s Property or to the business of Tenant resulting in any way from the fire or other casualty or from the repair and restoration of the damage.  Landlord and Tenant hereby waive the provisions of any Law relating to the matters addressed in this Article, and agree that their respective rights for damage to or destruction of the Premises shall be those specifically provided in this Lease.

 

B.                                    If all or any portion of the Premises shall be made untenantable by fire or other casualty, and Landlord has not elected to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section XVII.A above, Landlord shall, with reasonable promptness, cause an architect or general contractor selected by Landlord to provide Landlord and Tenant with a written estimate of the amount of time required to substantially complete the repair and restoration of the Premises and make the Premises tenantable again, using standard working methods (“Completion Estimate”).  If the Completion Estimate indicates that the Premises cannot be made tenantable within 270 days from the date the repair and restoration is started, then regardless of anything in Section XVII.A above to the contrary, either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other of such election within 10 business days after receipt of the Completion Estimate.  Tenant, however, shall not have the right to terminate this Lease if the fire or casualty was caused by the negligence or intentional misconduct of Tenant, Tenant Related Parties or any of Tenant’s transferees, contractors or licensees.  If the Premises have been materially damaged (i.e. at least 33% is not habitable) and Landlord has not commenced repairs within ninety (90) days after delivery of the Completion Estimate to Tenant (which 90-day period shall be extended due to Force Majeure and/or delay in obtaining insurance proceeds not within Landlord’s reasonable control), then Tenant may terminate this Lease upon five (5) days prior written notice given to Landlord at any time following such 90-day period (as may be extended), provided such termination right shall be void in the event Landlord has commenced such repairs on or before the end of such 5-day period after Tenant’s termination notice.

 

21

 

XVIII.           Condemnation.

 

Either party may terminate this Lease if the whole or any material part of the Premises shall be taken or condemned for any public or quasi-public use under Law, by eminent domain or private purchase in lieu thereof (a “Taking”).  Landlord shall also have the right to terminate this Lease if there is a Taking of any portion of the Building or Property which would leave the remainder of the Building unsuitable for use as an office building in a manner comparable to the Building’s use prior to the Taking and Landlord terminates all other leases in the Building.  In order to exercise its right to terminate the Lease, Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, must provide written notice of termination to the other within 45 days after the terminating party first receives notice of the Taking.  Any such termination shall be effective as of the date the physical taking of the Premises or the portion of the Building or Property occurs.  If this Lease is not terminated, the Rentable Square Footage of the Building, the Rentable Square Footage of the Premises and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share shall, if applicable, be appropriately adjusted.  In addition, Rent for any portion of the Premises taken or condemned shall be abated during the unexpired Term of this Lease effective when the physical taking of the portion of the Premises occurs.  All compensation awarded for a Taking, or sale proceeds, shall be the property of Landlord, any right to receive compensation or proceeds being expressly waived by Tenant.  However, Tenant may file a separate claim at its sole cost and expense for Tenant’s Property and Tenant’s reasonable relocation expenses, provided the filing of the claim does not diminish the award which would otherwise be receivable by Landlord.

 

XIX.                    Events of Default.

 

Tenant shall be considered to be in default of this Lease upon the occurrence of any of the following events of default (each, a “Default”):

 

A.                                    Tenant’s failure to pay when due all or any portion of the Rent, if the failure continues for five (5) Business Days after written notice to Tenant (“Monetary Default”).

 

B.                                    Tenant’s failure (other than a Monetary Default) to comply with any term, provision or covenant of this Lease, if the failure is not cured within 30 days after written notice to Tenant.  However, if Tenant’s failure to comply cannot reasonably be cured within 30 days, Tenant shall be allowed additional time (not to exceed 60 days) as is reasonably necessary to cure the failure so long as:  (1) Tenant commences to cure the failure within 30 days, and (2) Tenant diligently pursues a course of action that will cure the failure and bring Tenant back into compliance with the Lease.  However, if Tenant’s failure to comply creates a hazardous condition, the failure must be cured immediately upon notice to Tenant.  In addition, if Landlord provides Tenant with notice of Tenant’s failure to comply with any particular term, provision or covenant of the Lease on 3 occasions during any 12 month period, Tenant’s subsequent violation of such term, provision or covenant shall, at Landlord’s option, be an incurable event of default by Tenant.

 

C.                                    Tenant or any Guarantor becomes insolvent, makes a transfer in fraud of creditors or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts when due.

 

22

 

D.                                    The leasehold estate is taken by process or operation of Law.

 

XX.                         Remedies.

 

A.                                    Upon any Default, Landlord shall have the right without notice or demand (except as provided in Article XIX) to pursue any of its rights and remedies at Law or in equity, including any one or more of the following remedies:

 

1.                                      Terminate this Lease, in which case Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord.  If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises, Landlord may, in compliance with applicable Law and without prejudice to any other right or remedy, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel and remove Tenant, Tenant’s Property and any party occupying all or any part of the Premises. Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand the amount of all past due Rent and other losses and damages which Landlord may suffer as a result of Tenant’s default, whether by Landlord’s inability to relet the Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise, including, without limitation, all Costs of Reletting (defined below) and any deficiency that may arise from reletting or the failure to relet the Premises.  “Costs of Reletting” shall include all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in reletting or attempting to relet the Premises, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees, brokerage commissions, the cost of alterations and the value of other concessions or allowances granted to a new tenant.

 

2.                                      Terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises and, in compliance with applicable Law, expel and remove Tenant, Tenant’s Property and any parties occupying all or any part of the Premises.  In the event Landlord terminates Tenant’s right to possession, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to relet all or any part of the Premises, without notice to Tenant, for a term that may be greater or less than the balance of the Term and on such conditions (which may include concessions, free rent and alterations of the Premises) and for such uses as Landlord in its absolute discretion shall determine.  Landlord may collect and receive all rents and other income from the reletting.  Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand all past due Rent, all Costs of Reletting and any deficiency arising from the reletting or failure to relet the Premises.  Landlord shall not be responsible or liable for the failure to relet all or any part of the Premises or for the failure to collect any Rent.  The re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises shall not be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of termination is given to Tenant.

 

3.                                      In lieu of calculating damages under Sections XX.A.1 or XX.A.2 above, Landlord may elect to receive as damages the sum of (a) all Rent accrued through the date of termination of this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession, and (b) an amount equal to the total Rent that Tenant would have been required to pay for the remainder of the Term discounted to present value at the Prime Rate (defined in Section XX.B. below) then in effect, minus the then present fair rental value of the Premises for the

 

23

 

remainder of the Term, similarly discounted, after deducting all anticipated Costs of Reletting.

 

B.                                    Unless expressly provided in this Lease, the repossession or re-entering of all or any part of the Premises shall not relieve Tenant of its liabilities and obligations under the Lease.  No right or remedy of Landlord shall be exclusive of any other right or remedy. Each right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right and remedy now or subsequently available to Landlord at Law or in equity.  If Landlord declares Tenant to be in Default, Landlord shall be entitled to receive interest on any unpaid item of Rent that is due and payable at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 4%.  For purposes hereof, the “Prime Rate” shall be the per annum interest rate publicly announced as its prime or base rate by a federally insured bank selected by Landlord in the state in which the Building is located.  Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more remedies shall not constitute a waiver of any default.  In the event Landlord terminates this Lease due to a Default, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages due to a Default.

 

XXI.                    Limitation of Liability.

 

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS LEASE, THE LIABILITY OF LANDLORD (AND OF ANY SUCCESSOR LANDLORD) TO TENANT SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE INTEREST OF LANDLORD IN THE PROPERTY.  TENANT SHALL LOOK SOLELY TO LANDLORD’S INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY FOR THE RECOVERY OF ANY JUDGMENT OR AWARD AGAINST LANDLORD. NEITHER LANDLORD NOR ANY LANDLORD RELATED PARTY SHALL BE PERSONALLY LIABLE FOR ANY JUDGMENT OR DEFICIENCY.  BEFORE FILING SUIT FOR AN ALLEGED DEFAULT BY LANDLORD, TENANT SHALL GIVE LANDLORD AND THE MORTGAGEE(S) (DEFINED IN ARTICLE XXVI BELOW) WHOM TENANT HAS BEEN NOTIFIED HOLD MORTGAGES (DEFINED IN ARTICLE XXVI BELOW) ON THE PROPERTY, BUILDING OR PREMISES (AND FOR WHOM TENANT HAS BEEN PROVIDED AN ADDRESS), NOTICE AND REASONABLE TIME TO CURE THE ALLEGED DEFAULT.

 

XXII.               No Waiver.

 

Either party’s failure to declare a default immediately upon its occurrence, or delay in taking action for a default shall not constitute a waiver of the default, nor shall it constitute an estoppel.  Either party’s failure to enforce its rights for a default shall not constitute a waiver of its rights regarding any subsequent default.  Receipt by Landlord of Tenant’s keys to the Premises in and of itself shall not constitute an acceptance or surrender of the Premises.

 

XXIII.          Quiet Enjoyment.

 

Tenant shall, and may peacefully have, hold and enjoy the Premises, subject to the terms of this Lease, provided Tenant pays the Rent and fully performs all of its covenants and agreements set forth in this Lease.  This covenant and all other covenants of Landlord shall be binding upon Landlord and its successors only during its or their respective periods of ownership of the Building, and shall not be a personal covenant of Landlord or the Landlord Related Parties.

 

24

 

XXIV.           Intentionally Deleted.

 

XXV.                Holding Over.

 

If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, occupancy of the Premises after the termination or expiration shall be that of a tenancy at sufferance.  Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises during the holdover shall be subject to all the terms and provisions of this Lease and Tenant shall pay an amount (on a per month basis without reduction for partial months during the holdover) equal to 150% of the sum of the Base Rent and Additional Rent due for the month immediately preceding the holdover.  No holdover by Tenant or payment by Tenant after the expiration or early termination of this Lease shall be construed to extend the Term or prevent Landlord from immediate recovery of possession of the Premises by summary proceedings or otherwise.  In addition to the payment of the amounts provided above, if Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Premises to a new tenant, or to perform improvements for a new tenant, as a result of Tenant’s holdover and Tenant fails to vacate the Premises within 15 days after Landlord notifies Tenant of Landlord’s inability to deliver possession, or perform improvements, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all damages, including, without limitation, consequential damages, that Landlord suffers from the holdover.

 

XXVI.           Subordination to Mortgages; Estoppel Certificate.

 

Tenant accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to any mortgage(s), deed(s) of trust, ground lease(s) or other lien(s) now or subsequently arising upon the Premises, the Building or the Property, and to renewals, modifications, refinancings and extensions thereof (collectively referred to as a “Mortgage”). The party having the benefit of a Mortgage shall be referred to as a “Mortgagee”. This clause shall be self-operative, but upon request from a Mortgagee, Tenant shall execute a commercially reasonable subordination agreement in favor of the Mortgagee. In lieu of having the Mortgage be superior to this Lease, a Mortgagee shall have the right at any time to subordinate its Mortgage to this Lease.  If requested by a successor-in-interest to all or a part of Landlord’s interest in the Lease due to foreclosure or similar action in lieu thereof, Tenant shall, without charge, attorn to the successor-in-interest.  Landlord and Tenant shall each, within 10 days after receipt of a written request from the other, execute and deliver an estoppel certificate to those parties as are reasonably requested by the other (including a Mortgagee or prospective purchaser).  The estoppel certificate shall include a statement certifying that this Lease is unmodified (except as identified in the estoppel certificate) and in full force and effect, describing the dates to which Rent and other charges have been paid, representing that, to such party’s actual knowledge, there is no default (or stating the nature of the alleged default) and indicating other matters with respect to the Lease that may reasonably be requested.  Landlord represents that as of the execution date of this Lease, the Property is not currently subject to a Mortgage.  Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement from any future first Mortgagee on such Mortgagee’s standard form.

 

XXVII.      Attorneys’ Fees.

 

If either party institutes a suit against the other for violation of or to enforce any covenant or condition of this Lease, or if either party intervenes in any suit in which the other is a party to enforce or protect its interest or rights, the prevailing party shall be entitled to all of its costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees.

XXVIII.             Notice.

 

If a demand, request, approval, consent or notice (collectively referred to as a “notice”) shall or may be given to either party by the other, the notice shall be in writing and delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested, or sent by overnight or same day courier service at the party’s respective Notice Address(es) set forth in Article I, except that if Tenant has vacated the Premises (or if the Notice Address for Tenant is other than the Premises, and Tenant has vacated such address) without providing Landlord a new Notice Address, Landlord may serve notice in any manner described in this Article or in any other manner permitted by Law.  Each notice shall be deemed to have been received or given on the earlier to occur of actual delivery or the date on which delivery is refused, or, if either party has vacated its Notice Address without providing a new Notice Address, three (3) days after notice is deposited in the U.S. mail or with a courier service in the manner described above.  Either party may, at any time, change its Notice Address by giving the other party written notice of the new address in the manner described in this Article.

 

XXIX.          Excepted Rights.

 

This Lease does not grant any rights to light or air over or about the Building.  Landlord excepts and reserves exclusively to itself the use of:  (1) roofs, (2) telephone, electrical and janitorial closets, (3) equipment rooms, Building risers or similar areas that are used by Landlord for the provision of Building services, (4) rights to the land and improvements below the floor of the Premises, (5) the improvements and air rights above the Premises, (6) the improvements and air rights outside the demising walls of the Premises, and (7) the areas within the Premises used for the installation of utility lines and other installations serving occupants of the Building (provided Landlord shall not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises in its access of such areas). Landlord has the right to change the Building’s name or address.  Landlord also has the right to make such other changes to the Property and Building as Landlord deems appropriate, provided the changes do not materially affect Tenant’s ability to use the Premises for the Permitted Use.  Landlord shall also have the right (but not the obligation) to temporarily close the Building if Landlord reasonably determines that there is an imminent danger of significant damage to the Building or of personal injury to Landlord’s employees or the occupants of the Building.  The circumstances under which Landlord may temporarily close the Building shall include, without limitation, electrical interruptions, hurricanes and civil disturbances.  A closure of the Building under such circumstances shall not constitute a constructive eviction nor except as otherwise provided herein entitle Tenant to an abatement or reduction of Rent.

 

XXX.               Surrender of Premises.

 

At the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or Tenant’s right of possession, Tenant shall remove Tenant’s Property and the Required Removables from the Premises, and quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord, broom clean, and in good order, condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear, casualty, condemnation and obligations of Landlord excepted.  If Tenant fails to remove any of Tenant’s Property or Required Removables upon the termination of this Lease or of Tenant’s right to possession, Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall be entitled (but not obligated) to remove and store Tenant’s Property.  Landlord shall not be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping of Tenant’s Property.  Tenant shall pay Landlord, upon demand, the reasonable expenses and storage charges incurred for Tenant’s Property.  In addition, if Tenant fails to remove Tenant’s Property or Required

 

26

 

Removables from the Premises or storage, as the case may be, within 30 days after written notice, Landlord may deem all or any part of Tenant’s Property to be abandoned, and title to Tenant’s Property shall be deemed to be immediately vested in Landlord.

 

XXXI.          Miscellaneous.

 

A.                                    This Lease and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be interpreted, construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the state in which the Building is located and Landlord and Tenant hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction and proper venue of such state.  If any term or provision of this Lease shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected, and each provision of this Lease shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by Law.  The headings and titles to the Articles and Sections of this Lease are for convenience only and shall have no effect on the interpretation of any part of the Lease.

 

B.                                    Tenant shall not record this Lease or any memorandum without Landlord’s prior written consent.

 

C.                                    Landlord and Tenant hereby waive any right to trial by jury in any proceeding based upon a breach of this Lease.

 

D.                                    Whenever a period of time is prescribed for the taking of an action by Landlord or Tenant, the period of time for the performance of such action shall be extended by the number of days that the performance is actually delayed due to strikes, acts of God, shortages of labor or materials, war, civil disturbances and other causes beyond the reasonable control of the performing party (“Force Majeure”).  However, events of Force Majeure shall not extend any period of time for the payment of Rent or other sums payable by either party or any period of time for the written exercise of an option or right by either party.

 

E.                                     Landlord shall have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or in part, all of its rights and obligations under this Lease and in the Building and/or Property referred to herein, and upon such transfer Landlord shall be released from any further obligations hereunder, and Tenant agrees to look solely to the successor in interest of Landlord for the performance of such obligations.

 

F.                                      Landlord and Tenant each represents that it has dealt directly with and only with the Broker as a broker in connection with this Lease.  Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord and the Landlord Related Parties harmless from all claims of any other brokers claiming to have represented Tenant in connection with this Lease.  Landlord agrees to indemnify and hold Tenant and the Tenant Related Parties harmless from all claims of the Broker with respect to this Lease and of any brokers claiming to have represented Landlord in connection with this Lease.

 

G.                                    Tenant covenants, warrants and represents that:  (1) each individual executing, attesting and/or delivering this Lease on behalf of Tenant is authorized to do so on behalf of Tenant; (2) this Lease is binding upon Tenant; and (3) Tenant is duly organized and legally existing in the state of its organization and is qualified to do business in the state in which the Premises are located.  If there is more than

 

27

 

one Tenant, or if Tenant is comprised of more than one party or entity, the obligations imposed upon Tenant shall be joint and several obligations of all the parties and entities.  Notices, payments and agreements given or made by, with or to any one person or entity shall be deemed to have been given or made by, with and to all of them.  Landlord covenants, warrants and represents that:  (1) each individual executing, attesting and/or delivering this Lease on behalf of Landlord is authorized to do so on behalf of Landlord; (2) this Lease is binding upon Landlord; and (3) Landlord is duly organized and legally existing in the state of its organization and is qualified to do business in the state in which the Premises are located.

 

H.                                   Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s exercise of any expansion, renewal or extension rights granted to Tenant.  This Lease shall create only the relationship of landlord and tenant between the parties, and not a partnership, joint venture or any other relationship.  This Lease and the covenants and conditions in this Lease shall inure only to the benefit of and be binding only upon Landlord and Tenant and their permitted successors and assigns.

 

I.                                        The expiration of the Term, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, shall not relieve either party of any obligations which accrued prior to or which may continue to accrue after the expiration or early termination of this Lease.  Without limiting the scope of the prior sentence, it is agreed that Tenant’s obligations under Articles IV, VIII, XIV, XX, XXV and XXX and Landlord’s obligations under Article XIV shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Lease.

 

J.                                        Landlord has delivered a copy of this Lease to Tenant for Tenant’s review only, and the delivery of it does not constitute an offer to Tenant or an option.  This Lease shall not be effective against any party hereto until an original copy of this Lease has been signed by such party.

 

K.                                   All understandings and agreements previously made between the parties are superseded by this Lease, and neither party is relying upon any warranty, statement or representation not contained in this Lease.  This Lease may be modified only by a written agreement signed by Landlord and Tenant.

 

L.                                     Tenant, within 30 days after request, shall provide Landlord with a current financial statement and such other information as Landlord may reasonably request in order to create a “business profile” of Tenant and determine Tenant’s ability to fulfill its obligations under this Lease.  Landlord, however, shall not require Tenant to provide such information unless Landlord is requested to produce the information in connection with a proposed financing or sale of the Building and shall not request more than twice in any calendar year.  Upon written request by Tenant, Landlord shall enter into a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement covering any confidential information that is disclosed by Tenant.

 

XXXII.     Hazardous Materials

 

A.                                    The term “Hazardous Materials” means any substance, material, or waste which is now or hereafter classified or considered to be hazardous, toxic, or dangerous

 

28

 

under any Law relating to pollution or the protection or regulation of human health, natural resources or the environment, or poses or threatens to pose a hazard to the health or safety of persons in or about the Premises, Building or Property. Tenant shall not use, generate, store, or dispose of, or permit the use, generation, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials on or about the Premises except in a manner and quantity necessary for the ordinary performance of Tenant’s business, and then in compliance with all Laws. If Tenant breaches its obligations under this Section, Landlord may immediately take any and all action reasonably appropriate to remedy the same, including taking all appropriate action to clean up or remediate any contamination resulting from Tenant’s use, generation, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Landlord and its representatives and agents from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, causes of action, suits, judgments, damages and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and cost of cleanup and remediation) arising from Tenant’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section. This indemnity provision shall survive termination or expiration of the Lease.

 

B.                                    Tenant represents and warrants that the only Hazardous Materials that shall be used in the Premises, other than substances or products for standard office use and cleaning used in compliance with all applicable laws, are as set forth in Schedule XXXII.B. attached to this Lease and incorporated herein.  Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord once annually within twenty (20) days of each anniversary of the Commencement Date of any materials on OSHA’s right to know list or which are subject to regulation by any other federal, state, municipal or other governmental authority and which Tenant intends to have present at the Premises and with such notice shall provide Landlord with all information required by such law, regulation or authority.  Tenant shall provide such further information confirming such materials and/or their use, storage or disposal, within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s reasonable request.  If Tenant’s use of the Premises (other than as generally permitted hereunder) demonstrably results in an increase in the premium for any insurance on the Building or the contents thereof, Landlord shall notify Tenant of such increase and Tenant shall pay same as Additional Rent.

 

C.                                    With respect to any Hazardous Materials kept, stored or used by Tenant or any Tenant Related Parties with Landlord’s consent, Tenant shall:  (i) not permit any such Hazardous Materials to escape, be released, or be disposed of in, or about the Premises, Building, or Property, (ii) promptly, timely and completely comply with all federal, state or local governmental requirements concerning such Hazardous Materials, including without limitation, use, sale, transportation, generation, treatment, disposal, licensing, permitting, reporting and record keeping, and (iii) within fifteen (15) business days of Landlord’s written request, provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord of Tenant’s compliance with all applicable federal, state or local laws, regulations or ordinances, including copies of all licenses and permits that Tenant has been required to obtain for the handling of any Hazardous Materials.  Without limitation, Hazardous Materials shall include those described in the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §9601 et seq., the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §6901 et

 

29

 

seq., the Massachusetts Hazardous Waste Management Act, as amended, M.G.L. Chapter 21C, the Massachusetts Oil and Hazardous Material Release Prevention and Response Act, as amended, M.G.L. Chapter 21E, 10 CFR Part 20 Standards for Protection Against Radiation and 42 CFR Part 73 Select Agent Rule, and the regulations adopted under these acts.

 

D.                                    If any governmental agency shall ever require testing to ascertain whether or not there has been any release of Hazardous Materials (x) in the Building and/or the Property and (y) that has been caused by Tenant or any party acting by, through or under Tenant (including, without limitation, any employee, agent, contractor or invitee of Tenant), then the reasonable costs thereof shall be reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord upon demand as Additional Rent if such requirement is the result of Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises.  Tenant shall be fully and completely liable to Landlord (either with or without negligence) for any and all cleanup costs and expenses and any and all other charges, expenses, fees, fines, penalties (both civil and criminal) and costs imposed with respect to Tenant’s use, disposal, transportation, generation and/or sale of, or Tenant’s causing or permitting the escape, disposal or release, of any Hazardous Materials by Tenant or any Tenant Related Parties.  In all events, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord from any release of Hazardous Materials in the Premises, the Building and the Property caused by Tenant or any Tenant Related Parties, or if caused by Tenant or persons acting under Tenant, elsewhere.

 

E.                                     Any Hazardous Materials permitted to be stored on the Premises pursuant to this Lease shall be stored in areas of the Premises exclusively designated by Tenant for such purpose.  Furthermore, immediately upon a release or threat of release of Hazardous Materials by Tenant or a breach of this Lease and otherwise within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s written request Tenant shall make available to Landlord any reasonably requested information relating to the types and amounts of all Hazardous Materials being generated, produced, brought upon, used, stored or treated on the Premises and, upon Landlord’s written request, copies of any federal, state or municipal filings or compliance reports made by Tenant with respect to such Hazardous Materials that are required by applicable law and to the extent relating to the Premises, all of which Landlord shall have the right to audit and review.  Tenant agrees to pay the reasonable cost of any environmental inspection or assessment required by any governmental agencies, mortgagees of the Property, or by any insurance carrier, to the extent that such inspection or assessment pertains to any release, threat of release, contamination, claim of contamination, loss or damage related to Hazardous Materials in the Premises or on or about the Building arising out of Tenant’s use and occupancy.

EXHIBIT B

 

BUILDING RULES AND REGULATIONS

 

The following rules and regulations shall apply, where applicable, to the Premises, the Building, all parking areas, the Property and the appurtenances.  Capitalized terms have the same meaning as defined in the Lease.  In the event of any conflict between any rules and regulations and the Lease, the Lease shall control.

 

1.                                     Sidewalks, doorways, vestibules, halls, stairways and other similar areas shall not be obstructed by Tenant or used by Tenant for any purpose other than ingress and egress to and from the Premises.  No rubbish, litter, trash, or material shall be placed, emptied, or thrown in those areas.  At no time shall Tenant permit Tenant’s employees to loiter in Common Areas or elsewhere about the Building or Property.

 

2.                                      Plumbing fixtures and appliances shall be used only for the purposes for which designed, and no sweepings, rubbish, rags or other unsuitable material shall be thrown or placed in the fixtures or appliances.  Subject to the waiver of subrogation set forth in the Lease, damage resulting to fixtures or appliances by Tenant, its agents, employees or invitees, shall be paid for by Tenant, and Landlord shall not be responsible for the damage.

 

3.                                      No signs, advertisements or notices shall be painted or affixed to windows, doors or other parts of the Building, except those of such color, size, style and in such places as are first approved in writing by Landlord.  All tenant identification and suite numbers at the entrance to the Premises shall be installed by Landlord, at Tenant’s reasonable cost and expense, using the standard graphics for the Building. Except in connection with the hanging of lightweight pictures and wall decorations, no nails, hooks or screws shall be inserted into any part of the Premises or Building except by the Building maintenance personnel.

5.                                      Tenant shall not place any lock(s) on any door in the Premises or Building without Landlord’s prior written consent and Landlord shall have the right to retain at all times and to use keys to all locks within and into the Premises.  A reasonable number of keys to the locks on the entry doors in the Premises shall be furnished by Landlord to Tenant at Tenant’s cost, and Tenant shall not make any duplicate keys.  All keys shall be returned to Landlord at the expiration or early termination of this Lease.

 

6.                                      All contractors, contractor’s representatives and installation technicians performing work in the Building shall be subject to Landlord’s prior approval and shall be required to comply with Landlord’s standard rules, regulations, policies and procedures, which may be revised from time to time.

B-1

 

Landlord.  Tenant shall obtain Landlord’s prior approval by providing a detailed listing of the activity.  If approved by Landlord, the activity shall be under the supervision of Landlord and performed in the manner required by Landlord.  Tenant shall assume all risk for damage to articles moved and injury to any persons resulting from the activity.  If equipment, property, or personnel of Landlord or of any other party is damaged or injured as a result of or in connection with the activity, Tenant shall be solely liable for any resulting damage or loss.

 

8.                                      Landlord shall have the right to approve the weight, size, or location of heavy equipment or articles in and about the Premises.

Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent, use, store, install, spill, remove, release or dispose of, within or about the Premises or any other portion of the Property, any asbestos-containing materials or any solid, liquid or gaseous material now or subsequently considered toxic or hazardous under the provisions of 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq. or any other applicable environmental Law which may now or later be in effect.  Tenant shall comply with all Laws pertaining to and governing the use of these materials by Tenant, and shall remain solely liable for the costs of abatement and removal.

 

13.                               Tenant shall not use, or permit any part of the Premises to be used, for lodging, sleeping or for any illegal purpose.

 

14.                               Tenant shall not knowingly take any action which would violate Landlord’s labor contracts or which would cause a work stoppage, picketing, labor disruption or dispute, or interfere with Landlord’s or any other tenant’s or occupant’s business or with the rights and privileges of any person lawfully in the Building (“Labor Disruption”).  Tenant shall take the actions necessary to resolve the Labor Disruption, and shall have pickets removed and, at the request of Landlord, immediately terminate any work in the Premises that gave rise to the Labor Disruption, until Landlord gives its written consent for the work to resume.  Tenant shall have no claim for damages against Landlord or any of the Landlord Related Parties, nor shall the date of the commencement of the Term be extended as a result of the above actions.  Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with one another to resolve any such Labor Disruption.

15.                               Tenant shall not install, operate or maintain in the Premises or in any other area of the Building, electrical equipment that would overload the electrical system beyond its capacity for proper, efficient and safe operation as determined solely by Landlord.  Tenant shall not furnish cooling or heating to the Premises, including, without limitation, the use of electronic or gas heating devices, without Landlord’s prior written consent.  Tenant shall not use more than its proportionate share of telephone lines and other telecommunication facilities available to service the Building.

Tenant shall not operate or permit to be operated a coin or token operated vending machine or similar device (including, without limitation, telephones, lockers, toilets, scales, amusement devices and machines for sale of beverages, foods, candy, cigarettes and other goods), except for machines for the exclusive use of Tenant’s employees, and then only if the operation does not violate the lease of any other tenant in the Building.

 

17.                               Bicycles and other vehicles are not permitted inside the Building or on the walkways outside the Building, except in areas designated by Landlord.

 

18.                               Landlord may from time to time adopt systems and procedures for the security and safety of the Building, its occupants, entry, use and contents.  Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, guests and invitees shall comply with Landlord’s systems and procedures.

 

19.                               Landlord shall have the right to prohibit the use of the name of the Building or any other publicity by Tenant (other than use of the address of the Building) that in Landlord’s sole opinion may impair the reputation of the Building or its desirability.  Upon written notice from Landlord, Tenant shall refrain from and discontinue such publicity immediately.

The foregoing notwithstanding, Tenant acknowledges that the portions of the Tenant Improvements listed on Schedule I attached hereto shall be deemed Required Removables and must be removed from the Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease pursuant to Section VIII of the Lease.

The Space Plan and all Construction Drawings and Specifications for the Tenant Improvements (collectively, the “Tenant Plans”) shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that Landlord shall have complete discretion with regard to granting or withholding approval of the portions of the Construction Drawings to the extent the Construction Drawings detail work that would impact the Building’s structure or systems, or affect future marketability of the Premises or Building. Any changes, additions or modifications that Tenant desires to make to the Tenant Plans shall also be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed except as provided above for the Building structure, system or appearance impact.

Expenses for electric service and other separately metered utilities during Tenant’s build-out and move-in shall be the responsibility of Tenant.

 

Subject to the waiver of subrogation set forth in the Lease, Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord harmless from any and all claims for personal or bodily injury and property damage that may arise from the performance of the Tenant Improvements, whether resulting from the negligence or willful misconduct of its general contractors, subcontractors or otherwise, except to the extent caused by Landlord, its employees, agents and contractors.  Tenant and its contractors and subcontractors shall execute such additional documents as Landlord deems reasonably appropriate to evidence said indemnity.

 

Tenant shall not commence the Tenant Improvements until the following is provided:

 

(a)                                 Insurance.  Prior to construction, Tenant shall provide Landlord with an original certificate of All-Risk Builder’s Risk Insurance (the “Builder’s Risk Insurance Policy”), subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval, in the minimum amount of the replacement cost of the Tenant Improvements issued by a company or companies reasonably acceptable to Landlord and authorized to do business in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, covering the Premises, with premiums prepaid, and which names the Landlord as an additional insured.  Said policy shall insure the Tenant Improvements and all materials and supplies for the Tenant Improvements stored on the Premises (or at any other sites and including the Premises) against loss or damage by fire and the risks and hazards insured against by the standard form of extended coverage, and against vandalism and malicious mischief, and such other risks and hazards as Landlord may reasonably request.  Said insurance coverage shall be for 100% of replacement cost, including architectural fees.  The Builder’s Risk Insurance Policy shall contain a provision that the insurance company waive the rights of recovery or subrogation against Landlord, its agents, servants, invitees, employees, co-tenants, co-venturers, affiliate companies, and their insurers.

 

(b)                                 Governmental Permits.  Building permits and other appropriate permits and licenses from the appropriate agency or office of any governmental or regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Premises and which are required for the construction of the Tenant Improvements.

5.                                      Change Orders. If Tenant requests any change or addition to or subtraction from the Tenant Improvements (“Change Order”) after Landlord’s approval of the final and complete Tenant Plans for the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall respond to Tenant’s request for consent as soon as reasonably possible, but in no event later than three (3) Business Days after being made.  Landlord’s approval of any changes, additions or modifications that Tenant desires to make to the Tenant Plans shall not be unreasonably withheld, except that Landlord shall have complete discretion with regard to granting or withholding approval for the Building structure, system or appearance as provided in Section 3.2 above.  All reasonable, out-of-pocket costs incurred by Landlord for third-party review in connection with such change orders shall by reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord, as additional rent, with fifteen (15) days of Tenant’s receipt 

 

D-3

 

of an invoice therefor; provided that (i) plans for Change Orders shall not be sent for third party review unless Landlord’s property manager reasonably determines that it does not have the internal expertise to review a certain component of the plans (e.g., without limitation, review requiring expertise of a structural engineer)  and (ii) in the event the cost of such third party review would in Landlord’s reasonable estimation exceed $1,500, Landlord will notify Tenant in sufficient time so that the approval request for a Change Order may be modified or withdrawn.

 

6.                                      Cooperation With Other Tenants.  Tenant shall promptly remove from the Common Areas any of Tenant’s or Tenant’s contractors’ or subcontractors’ equipment, materials, supplies or other property deposited in the Common Areas during the construction of the Tenant Improvements.  Further, Tenant shall at no time disrupt or allow its employees or contractors to cause disruption to any other existing tenant’s or Building occupant’s access to their premises or the Building, nor allow disruptions of mechanical, electrical, telephone and plumbing services.  In addition, Tenant shall not interrupt or interfere with the normal business operations of any other tenant or occupant of the Building, the Property or adjacent buildings.  To the extent construction of the Tenant Improvements does, or in the reasonable opinion of Landlord may, interrupt the normal business operations of any other tenant or occupant of the Building, the Property or adjacent buildings, such portion of the Tenant Improvement work shall be performed after Normal Business Hours at such times as are directed by Landlord.

 

7.                                      Inspection by Landlord; Construction Supervision.  Landlord shall have the right to inspect the Tenant Improvements at all reasonable times.  Landlord’s failure to inspect the Tenant Improvements shall in no event constitute a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights hereunder nor shall Landlord’s inspection of the Tenant Improvements constitute the Landlord’s approval of same.  There shall be no fee for Landlord’s construction management and supervision of the Tenant Improvements.

 

8.                                      Completion of Tenant Improvements.  Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing when the Tenant Improvements have been Substantially Completed.  Landlord shall thereupon have the opportunity to inspect the Premises in order to determine if the Premises have been Substantially Completed in accordance with the Tenant Plans. If the Tenant Improvements have not been Substantially Completed in accordance with the Tenant Plans, Landlord shall immediately following inspection, provide Tenant with written notification of the items deemed incorrect or incomplete.  Tenant shall forthwith proceed to correct the incorrect or incomplete items.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Tenant Improvements shall not be considered suitable for review by Landlord until all designated or required governmental inspections, permits and certifications necessary for the Tenant Improvements, including, but not limited to a temporary or final certificate of occupancy, have been made, given and/or posted.  As used herein, the Tenant Improvements shall be deemed “Substantially Completed” when (i) the improvements have been completed in accordance with the Tenant Plans such that the Premises may be occupied by Tenant for the commencement of its business operations therein, subject only to completion of minor finishing, adjustment of equipment, and other minor construction aspects which shall not disturb Tenant’s business operations and (ii) Tenant has procured a (temporary or permanent) certificate of occupancy permitting the uninterrupted occupancy of the Premises, if required by law.

 

9.                                      Tenant Improvement Allowance.  Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the Costs of Tenant Improvements (as hereinafter defined) in an amount not to exceed $174,150 (the “Improvement Allowance”).  Landlord shall also provide Tenant up to an additional $164,475 (the “Reimbursable Allowance”) to be applied to the Costs of Tenant Improvements. The Improvement Allowance and Reimbursable Allowance shall be collectively referred to herein as 

 

D-4

 

the “Allowance”.  Tenant shall be solely responsible for the amount by which the Costs of Tenant Improvements exceeds the Allowance.

 

Tenant acknowledges that any request for payment of the Allowance must be delivered to Landlord in the form of AIA Document G702 (Application for Payment) together with evidence of paid invoices and fully executed, notarized lien waivers (without contingency) covering the work for which reimbursement is then being requested; provided that no disbursement of the Allowance shall occur until such time that Landlord has received (a) final, Landlord-approved Construction Drawings signed by Tenant’s architect, (b) a copy of the building permit and (c) a copy of the fully-executed construction contract for the Tenant Improvements.  Subject to the foregoing, Landlord shall make disbursements of the Allowance not more often than once every thirty (30) calendar days within ten (10) business days after the Landlord’s receipt of a requisition therefor, together with all required documentation and after Tenant’s completion of the Tenant Improvements covered by such requisition.

 

After Tenant’s completion of Tenant Improvements and delivery to Landlord of (a) evidence that the Tenant Improvements have been fully paid for, (b) fully executed and notarized final lien waivers for all Tenant Improvements work, (c) as-built plans for all Tenant Improvements signed by Tenant’s architect and (d) an HVAC balancing report reasonably acceptable to Landlord, Landlord shall, after written request from Tenant, disburse to Tenant the final installment of the Allowance to the extent Tenant has satisfied the requirements for disbursement.

 

Landlord shall first disburse the Improvement Allowance until fully expended (except with respect to Tenant’s final requisition, which shall be disbursed upon completion of the Tenant Improvements as provided above) and thereafter disburse any requested portion of the Reimbursable Allowance.  Commencing on the Commencement Date, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, as Additional Rent, the amount of the Reimbursable Allowance disbursed to Tenant, payable in equal monthly amounts with Tenant’s monthly payments of Base Rent, such repayment to be amortized over the initial thirty-six (36) full calendar months of the Term at 8% interest per annum.  By way of example only, in the event the entire Reimbursable Allowance is disbursed to Tenant, the monthly amount due shall be $5,154.05.  In the event this Lease is terminated prior to the full repayment of the Reimbursable Allowance, then portion of the unpaid Reimbursable Allowance shall be immediately due and payable, and the obligation to repay such amounts shall survive the termination of this Lease.

 

“Costs of Tenant Improvements” shall mean the design and architectural costs to prepare the Tenant Plans, costs of all labor and materials, costs for removal of all construction debris, costs of cabling and wiring, general contractor’s fees, project management costs and any permit or license fees necessary for completion of construction of Tenant Improvements, and shall include the construction management and supervisory fee described in Section 7 above.  Landlord shall be under no obligation to disburse any portion of the Improvement Allowance for any relocation costs or other furniture, trade fixtures or equipment of Tenant, nor for any purposes other than as provided in this Exhibit D, nor shall Landlord be deemed to have assumed any obligations, in whole or in part, of Tenant to any contractors, subcontractors, supplier, workers or material men.  Landlord shall be under no obligation to disburse the Improvement Allowance if the disbursement request is received after February 1, 2013, and Tenant shall not thereafter be entitled to any such undisbursed portion of the Improvement Allowance after said date.

 

D-5

 

10.                               Test-Fit Allowance.  Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for $774.00 (the “Test-Fit Allowance”) of the cost of preparing test-fit plans for the Premises, and Tenant shall be solely responsible for the amount by which the costs of preparing test-fit plans for the Premises exceeds the Test-Fit Allowance.  After Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of evidence confirming the cost of preparing test-fit plans for the Premises has been fully paid for, Landlord shall, after written request from Tenant, disburse to Tenant the Test-Fit Allowance in a lump sum.

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

 

This Exhibit is attached to and made a part of the Lease and is entered into by and between 780 DEDHAM STREET HOLDINGS, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“Landlord”) and COLLEGIUM PHARMACEUTICAL, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), for space in the building located at 780 Dedham Street, Canton, Massachusetts.

 

1. Extension Option

 

Provided the original Tenant named herein or a tenant pursuant to a Permitted Transfer is itself occupying the entire Premises at the time of giving its notice to exercise its option (the “Extension Notice”) and at the commencement of the Extension Term (as defined herein), Tenant shall have the right and option to extend the Term for one (1) additional period of five (5) years (“Extension Term”).  The right and option to so extend the term shall be personal to the Tenant executing this Lease or a tenant pursuant to a Permitted Transfer and such right and option may not be assigned or transferred to any other party or entity.  The Extension Term is to commence immediately upon expiration of the initial Term (the “Original Term”), provided that Tenant shall give Landlord notice of Tenant’s exercise of such option by no later than twelve (12) months and, except as provided in Exhibit E Section 2 below, no earlier than fifteen (15) months prior to the then scheduled expiration of the Original Term, and provided further that no Default exists at the time of giving the Extension Notice or at the commencement of the Extension Term.  If a Default, or event which with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a Default, exists at the time of giving the Extension Notice or at the time of commencement of the Extension Term, Tenant’s exercise of such option shall, at the option of Landlord, be null and void and of no further force and effect.  Prior to the exercise by Tenant of any such option, the expression “Term” shall mean the Original Term.  Except as expressly otherwise provided in the following paragraph, all the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements in the Lease contained herein shall be applicable to the Extension Term, except that there shall be no further extension terms.  If Tenant shall give the Extension Notice in the manner and within the time period provided aforesaid, the Term shall be extended upon the giving of the Extension Notice without the requirement of any further action on the part of either Landlord or Tenant.  If Tenant shall fail to timely give the Extension Notice as aforesaid, Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term of this Lease, time being of the essence of the foregoing provisions.

 

The Base Rent payable during the Extension Term shall be an amount equal to the Fair Market Rent for the Premises as of the commencement date of the Extension Term.  The Fair Market Rent shall be determined in accordance with the provisions set forth below.  If for any reason the Base Rent payable during the Extension Term has not been determined as of the commencement date of the Extension Term, Tenant shall pay the Base Rent payable for the year immediately preceding the commencement of the Extension Term until the Base Rent for the Extension Term is determined, at which time, an appropriate adjustment, if any, shall be made.

 

“Fair Market Rent” shall mean the anticipated rent for the Premises as of the commencement of the Extension Term under market conditions then existing for similar office/research and development space in the market.  No later than one (1) month after Tenant’s Extension Notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s estimate of the Fair

 

E-1

 

Market Rent.  No later than fifteen (15) Business Days after such notification, Tenant may dispute Landlord’s estimate of Fair Market Rent upon written notice thereof to Landlord which written notice shall contain Tenant’s estimate of the Fair Market Rent.  If Tenant disputes Landlord’s estimate of Fair Market Rent within such fifteen (15) Business Day period, then the Fair Market Rent shall be determined by agreement between Landlord and Tenant during the next thirty (30) day period (the “Discussion Period”), but if Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Fair Market Rent during the Discussion Period, then the Fair Market Rent shall be determined by the determination of a board of three (3) M.A.I. appraisers as hereafter provided, each of whom shall have at least five (5) years’ experience in the Metro-west Boston office and light industrial rental market and each of whom is hereinafter referred to as “appraiser”. Tenant and Landlord shall each appoint one such appraiser and the two appraisers so appointed shall appoint the third appraiser (the “Neutral Appraiser”).  The cost and expenses of each appraiser appointed separately by Tenant and Landlord shall be borne by the party who appointed the appraiser.  The cost and expenses of the third appraiser shall be shared equally by Tenant and Landlord.  Landlord and Tenant shall appoint their respective appraisers no later than fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the Discussion Period and shall designate the appraisers so appointed by notice to the other party.  The two appraisers so appointed and designated shall appoint the Neutral Appraiser no later than twenty (20) days after the end of the Discussion Period and shall designate such appraiser by notice to Landlord and Tenant.  The Neutral Appraiser shall then choose either the Landlord’s estimate of Fair Market Rent or the Tenant’s estimate of Fair Market Rent as the Fair Market Rent of the space in question as of the commencement of the Extension Term and shall notify Landlord and Tenant of its determination no later than sixty (60) days after the end of the Discussion Period. The Fair Market Rent of the subject space determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section shall be deemed binding and conclusive on Tenant and Landlord.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if either party shall fail to appoint its appraiser within the period specified above (such party referred to hereinafter as the “failing party”) the other party may serve notice on the failing party requiring the failing party to appoint its appraiser within ten (10) days of the giving of such notice and if the failing party shall not respond by appointment of its appraiser within said (10) day period, then the appraiser appointed by the other party shall be the sole appraiser whose choice of either the Landlord’s or the Tenant’s estimate of Fair Market Rent shall be binding and conclusive upon Tenant and Landlord.  All times set forth herein are of the essence.

 

2.  Right of First Offer

 

Effective as of the date hereof, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth below and subject to any right of the existing tenants in such space to extend the term of their lease, Tenant shall have a one-time “Right of First Offer” to lease any space in the Building contiguous with the Premises that becomes available during the Term (the “ROFO Space”), which lease will be for a term which shall be coterminous with the Term then in effect.  Landlord will provide Tenant with advance written notice of its plans to market any portion of the ROFO Space for lease to any unrelated third party, which notice shall specify Landlord’s estimate of the fair market rent for the ROFO Space, the date of availability of such ROFO Space and all other material terms and conditions which will apply to such ROFO Space (the “Availability Notice”).

 

Prior to the end of the ten (10) Business Day period following Landlord’s delivery of the Availability Notice to Tenant, Tenant may either (i) provide written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s acceptance of the terms set forth in the Availability Notice (a “ROFO Acceptance”) or (ii) negotiate with Landlord for terms other than as set forth in the Availability Notice and enter into a mutually agreeable, written and fully-executed letter of intent with Landlord upon such terms

 

E-2

 

(a “ROFO LOI”).  If Tenant timely delivers a ROFO Acceptance or timely enters into a fully-executed ROFO LOI, Landlord and Tenant shall thereafter execute an amendment to the Lease incorporating the ROFO Space into the Premises upon the terms contained in the Availability Notice or ROFO LOI, as applicable, within ten (10) Business Days.  If Tenant fails to timely deliver a ROFO Acceptance or enter into a fully-executed ROFO LOI, or fails to timely enter into a lease amendment for the ROFO Space, for reasons other than any delay by Landlord, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its rights with respect to the ROFO Space set forth in the Availability Notice and Landlord shall be entitled to lease all or any portion of the ROFO Space to any third party or parties on such terms and conditions, including, without limitation, options to extend the term of such lease and/or expand the premises under such lease, and for such rent as Landlord determines, all in its sole discretion, and the Right of First Offer with respect to any such space shall be of no further force or effect.

 

Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section 2 or any other provision of the Lease, the Right of First Offer and any exercise by Tenant of any Right of First Offer shall be void and of no effect unless, on the date Tenant notifies Landlord that it is exercising the Right of First Offer and on the commencement date of the amendment for the ROFO Space, (i) the Lease is in full force and effect, (ii) no Default of Tenant has occurred under the Lease which remains continuing and uncured after any applicable notice and opportunity to cure, (iii) Tenant shall not have assigned the Lease other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, and there shall not be any sublease or subleases in effect as of the commencement of the term of the Lease for any of the ROFO Space and (iv) there shall be at least twenty-four (24) full calendar months remaining in the Term, it being acknowledged that Landlord shall provide any applicable Availability Notices during the period that is between twenty-four (24) full calendar months and twelve (12) full calendar months before the expiration of the initial Term, and Tenant’s exercise of the Right of First Offer during such period shall only be effective if Tenant simultaneously exercises the Extension Option set forth in Exhibit E Section 1 together with Tenant’s delivery of a ROFO Acceptance.

 

3. Parking

 

Tenant shall have the right to use, on a non-reserved, non-exclusive basis, parking in the parking lot adjacent to the Building at a ratio of four (4) vehicle spaces per each one thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of the Premises (i.e. non-reserved parking for thirty-nine (39) motor vehicles based upon the Tenant’s occupancy of 9,675 rentable square feet; the foregoing referred to herein as “Tenant’s Parking Rights”).   Tenant’s Parking Rights shall be non-transferable (directly or indirectly) to any other institutions, entities or individuals other than pursuant to a permitted assignment of this Lease or sublease under this Lease.

 

Landlord shall not be responsible for money, jewelry, automobiles or other personal property lost in or stolen from the parking lot.  Landlord shall not be liable for any loss, injury or damage to persons using the parking lot or automobiles or other property thereon, it being agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the use of the parking lot and the parking spaces shall be at the sole risk of Tenant and its employees.  Except for emergency repairs, Tenant and its employees shall not perform any work on any automobiles while located in the parking lot.

 

Tenant’s Parking Rights shall be subject to such reasonable rules and regulations therefor as may be set and changed with reasonable prior notice by the Landlord from time to time and uniformly enforced by Landlord during the Term.  Tenant’s Parking Rights are non-

 

E-3

 

assignable and intended solely for the use of Tenant’s employees working from and business invitees to the Premises and of any permitted assignee of this Lease or subtenant under this Lease; and as such Tenant shall not offer them for “use” or “license” to any other entity, the general public, or any other tenants of the Building.  All such appurtenant rights for parking as set forth in this Section are automatically terminated upon termination of this Lease and shall have no separate independent validity or legal standing.  Tenant shall have access to and use of the parking areas on a 24-hour per day, 7 day per week basis, provided that Landlord reserves the right to relocate and/or temporarily close any or all of the parking facilities to the extent necessary in the event of a casualty or governmental taking or for maintenance and repairs of the parking facility and Landlord shall reopen the same or provide replacement parking facilities as soon as practicable thereafter.

 

4. Signage

 

Except as expressly permitted in this Section 4 of this Exhibit E or the Lease, Tenant shall not place any signs, placards, awnings or the like on the Building or on the exterior of the Premises (including without limitation both interior and exterior surfaces of windows).  Subject to Tenant obtaining all necessary approvals and permits therefor, including without limitation from the Town of Canton, and subject to the terms of this Section 4 of Exhibit E, Tenant may install Tenant-identification signage on the exterior of the Building over the main entrance to the Premises and its name and company logo on the main Premises entry door.  Final plans and specifications, including without limitation artwork, for such signage must be submitted to Landlord for its written approval before installation, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld.  The costs of such signage and the installation thereof, including the costs of any required permits or approvals and/or the costs of any utilities serving the sign, shall be the responsibility of Tenant and Landlord shall install same at competitive market rates.  The Tenant shall comply at its own expense with the requirements of all laws and regulations affecting the maintenance of Tenant’s signs.  If any signage requires electrical service, Tenant shall be responsible for connecting the same to Tenant’s separate meter.  Tenant shall remove all signs upon termination of this Lease, repair any damage caused by such removal, and return the Premises and the Building to their condition prior to the placement or erection of said signs (ordinary wear and tear, casualty, condemnation and Landlord’s obligations excepted), all at Tenant’s sole cost and expense.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

	
BORROWER:     COLLEGIUM   PHARMACEUTICAL, INC., a Delaware corporation
    	
DATE:   AUGUST 28, 2012
    

 

This LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of the date set forth above (the “Effective Date”) by and between SILICON VALLEY BANK (“Bank”), and the borrower named above (“Borrower”).  Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them on Schedule C.  The parties agree as follows:

 

1. Loans.  Bank will make extensions of credit or other financial accommodations for Borrower’s benefit (collectively, “Loans”), and Borrower promises to pay Bank the amount of all Loans and other debts, principal, interest, Bank Expenses (as defined in Section 8.2), Final Payment, and other amounts Borrower owes Bank now or later and interest accruing after insolvency proceedings begin and debts, liabilities, or obligations of Borrower assigned to Bank (collectively, “Obligations”) pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and as set forth on Schedule A.  Bank’s obligation to make any Loan is subject to its receipt of the agreements, documents and fees it reasonably requires.

 

2. Security Interest.  As security for all present and future Obligations and for Borrower’s performance for each of its duties hereunder, Borrower grants Bank a continuing security interest in all of Borrower’s interest in the Collateral (as defined in Schedule B).  Borrower acknowledges that it previously has entered, and/or may in the future enter, into Bank Services Agreements with Bank.  Regardless of the terms of any Bank Services Agreement, Borrower agrees that any amounts Borrower owes Bank thereunder shall be deemed to be Obligations hereunder and that it is the intent of Borrower and Bank to have all such Obligations secured by the first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral granted herein (subject only to Permitted Liens that expressly have superior priority to Bank’s lien in this Agreement).  In the event (a) all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations), except for Bank Services, are satisfied in full, and (b) this Agreement is terminated, Bank shall terminate the security interest granted herein upon Borrower providing cash collateral acceptable to Bank in its good faith business judgment for Bank Services, if any.  In the event such Bank Services consist of outstanding Letters of Credit, then on such date Borrower shall provide to Bank cash collateral in an amount equal to (i) one hundred five percent (105.0%) of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars and (ii) one hundred ten percent (110.0%) of the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency plus, in each case, all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment), to secure all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit.

 

3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Borrower.  Except as set forth under Item 10 of Schedule D attached hereto, Borrower represents, warrants and covenants to Bank as follows, as of the Effective Date and with respect to covenants, for so long as this Agreement is in effect or any Obligations remain outstanding:

 

3.1  Corporate Existence; Authority.  Each of Borrower and its Subsidiaries is and will continue to be, duly existing and in good standing in its state of formation and qualified and licensed to do business in, and in good standing in, any state where such qualification is necessary, except for jurisdictions in which failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on Borrower.  The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this Agreement and all other related documents have been duly and validly authorized, do not conflict with Borrower’s formation documents, and do not constitute an event of default under any material agreement by which Borrower is bound.  “Subsidiaries” means any entity of which more than 50% of the voting stock or other equity interests is owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by Borrower.

 

3.2  Collateral.  Bank has and will at all times continue to have a first-priority perfected security interest in all of the Collateral.  Borrower has, and will continue to have, good title to the Collateral, free of any liens except Permitted Liens.  Borrower will immediately advise Bank in writing of any material loss or damage to the Collateral.  If, at any time, Borrower has knowledge that it shall have acquired a commercial tort claim, Borrower shall promptly provide written notice thereof to Bank and grant to Bank in writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof.

 

3.3  Financial Matters. All financial statements (including notes and schedules) now or in the future delivered to Bank, (i) have presented, and will present, fairly in all material respects Borrower’s financial condition and its results of operations, and (ii) have been, and will be, prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).  Since the last date covered by any such statement, there has been no material impairment in the financial condition or business of Borrower.  Borrower will provide Bank with all financial reports as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto, as well as any other financial information reasonably requested by Bank from time to time, including budgets, projections and plans.

 

3.4  Taxes; Legal Compliance. Borrower has filed, and will file, when due, all tax returns and reports required by applicable law. Borrower has paid, and will pay when due, all taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions now or in the future owed (except for taxes and assessments being contested in good faith with adequate reserves under GAAP). Borrower has complied, and will comply, in all material respects, with all applicable laws, rules and regulations.

 

3.5  Insurance.  Borrower shall at all times insure all of the tangible personal property Collateral and carry such other business insurance as is customary for companies similarly situated to Borrower.  All property policies will have a lender’s loss payable endorsement showing Bank as a loss payee and all liability policies will show the Bank as an additional insured and 

 

1

 

provide that the insurer must give Bank at least twenty days’ notice before canceling its policy.

 

3.6  Access.  Upon one Business Day’s prior notice, Bank or its agents shall have the right to inspect the Collateral and to audit and copy Borrower’s books and records during Borrower’s regular business hours.  A “Business Day” is any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which the Bank is closed.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank shall not be required to provide written notice to Borrower of any inspection or audit.

 

3.7  Banking Matters.  Borrower shall at all times maintain its banking relationship with Bank in a manner as set forth on Schedule A.

 

3.8 Statement of Borrower’s Information. All of Borrower’s information set forth on Schedule D is true and correct as of the Effective Date, and Borrower shall provide written notice to Bank of any material changes within the prescribed periods of time set forth therein.

 

3.9 Insolvency.  Borrower is able, and will continue to be able, to pay its debts (including trade debts) as they mature.

 

3.10 Additional Agreements.  Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, without Bank’s prior written consent (which shall be a matter of Bank’s good faith business judgment), do any of the following: (i) convey, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of (“Transfer”) any property other than Permitted Transfers; (ii) engage in any business other than the business currently engaged in by Borrower or reasonably related thereto; (iii) permit or suffer to exist a change in its ownership existing as of the Effective Date in excess of the Ownership Threshold, except for the sale of capital stock to venture or strategic investors, provided that Bank receives at least five Business Days’ prior written notice of such sale and such sale does not otherwise result in an Event of Default (as defined in Section 5); (iv) merge or consolidate with any party, or acquire all or substantially all of the capital stock or assets of another party; (v) incur or become liable for any indebtedness other than Permitted Indebtedness; (vi) assign or convey any rights to income or incur or allow any lien, security interest or other encumbrance on any of its property other than Permitted Liens; (vii) make any investments except for Permitted Investments; (viii) pay or declare any dividends on Borrower’s stock; (ix) redeem, retire, purchase or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of Borrower’s stock other than stock repurchased in connection with the termination of employment or service as a consultant or director; (x) directly or indirectly enter into any material transaction with any affiliate except in the ordinary course of business upon reasonable terms no less favorable than those in an arm’s-length transaction with a non-affiliate; or (xi) make any payment on, or materially change any term relating to, any indebtedness which is subordinated to any indebtedness owed to Bank by Borrower.  Borrower shall not, without at least thirty days’ prior written notice to Bank, relocate its principal offices from Borrower’s address set forth on the signature page hereof or change its state of formation.  Borrower shall take or authorize any further actions (including Bank’s filing of financing statements to perfect Bank’s security interest in the Collateral) and execute any further instruments as Bank reasonably requests to perfect or continue Bank’s security interests or to effect the purposes of this Agreement.

 

3.11 Full Disclosure.  No written representation, warranty or other statement of Borrower in any certificate or written statement given to Bank, in the aggregate, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statement contained in such certificates or statements not misleading.

 

4. Term. This Agreement shall continue in effect until the maturity date set forth in Schedule A (the “Term Loan Maturity Date”).  On the Term Loan Maturity Date or on any earlier effective date of termination of this Agreement, Borrower shall pay in cash all Obligations in full, whether or not such Obligations are otherwise then due and payable.  No termination shall in any way affect or impair any security interest or other right or remedy of Bank, nor shall any such termination relieve Borrower of any obligation to Bank, until all of the Obligations have been paid and performed in full.  Without limiting the foregoing, except as otherwise provided in Section 2, the grant of security interest by Borrower in Section 2 shall survive until the termination of all Bank Services Agreements.

 

5. Events of Default.  The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder: (i) Borrower fails to deliver the financial statements and other information pursuant to Section 3.3 above within the prescribed period of time; (ii) Borrower fails to pay when due any Loan or other monetary Obligation within three Business Days after the due date (during which time no additional Loans shall be made by Bank); (iii) Borrower fails to perform any obligation (other than payment of any Loan or other Obligations or those pursuant to Section 3.3 above) or covenant hereunder, which, if such default can be reasonably cured, is not cured within ten days after the date due (or a later date, as approved in writing by Bank); (iv) a Material Adverse Change; (v) any representation, or written statement given to Bank by or on behalf of Borrower, now or in the future, is untrue or misleading in a material respect; (vi) a default in any agreement between Borrower and a third party that gives the third party the right to accelerate any indebtedness exceeding the Contract Threshold Amount or that could reasonably be expected to cause any material impairment in the Borrower’s business, operations or financial or other condition of the Borrower; (vii) the attachment, seizure, levy or possession by a trustee or receiver of any material portion of Borrower’s assets which is not removed within ten days from its occurrence; (viii) the enjoinment, restraint or prevention by court order from conducting a material part of Borrower’s business, which is not terminated within ten days of its occurrence; (ix) the dissolution, winding up or insolvency of Borrower; or (x) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or custodian, for all or part of the property of, assignment for the benefit of creditors by, or commencement of any proceeding by or against, Borrower under any reorganization, bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement, readjustment of debt, dissolution or liquidation law or statute of any jurisdiction, now or in the future in effect.

6. Rights and Remedies.  If an Event of Default occurs and continues, Bank may, without notice or demand do any or all of the following: (i) accelerate and declare all of the Loans and other Obligations to be immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Sections 5(ix) or 5(x) occurs, all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Bank); (ii) stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or any other agreement between Borrower and Bank; (iii) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors for amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable; (iv) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral (and Borrower will reasonably cooperate with Bank accordingly); (v) apply to the Obligations any balances and deposits of Borrower that Bank holds or any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower; (vi) increase the then-existing interest rate by an additional five percent per annum; (vii) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale and sell or otherwise dispose the Collateral; (viii) place a “hold” on any account maintained with Bank and deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any control agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral; (ix) for any Letters of Credit, demand that Borrower (a) deposit cash with Bank in an amount equal to one hundred five percent (105.0%) of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, and (b) deposit cash with Bank in an amount equal to one hundred ten percent (110.0%) of the face amount of all such Letters of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency, for all such Letters of Credit remaining undrawn (plus all interest, fees, and costs due or to become due in connection therewith (as estimated by Bank in its good faith business judgment)), to secure all of the Obligations relating to such Letters of Credit, as collateral security for the repayment of any future drawings under such Letters of Credit, and Borrower shall forthwith deposit and pay such amounts, and (c) pay in advance all letter of credit fees scheduled to be paid or payable over the remaining term of any Letters of Credit; (x) terminate any FX Forward Contracts; and/or (xi) exercise any other rights and remedies permitted by applicable law.  Effective only when an Event of Default occurs and continues, Borrower irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to:  (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any account or drafts against account debtors; (c) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (d) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the accounts directly with account debtors for amounts and on terms Bank determines reasonable; and (e) transfer the Collateral into the name of Bank or a third party as the Massachusetts Uniform Commercial Code permits.  Bank may exercise the power of attorney to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred.  Bank’s appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Bank’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed. All of Bank’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or any other agreement between Bank and Borrower are cumulative.  Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is liable.

 

7. Indemnification.  Borrower will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Bank and its affiliates, and each of their officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants and agents against: (i) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder; and (ii) all losses and expenses incurred, or paid by Bank arising from transactions between Bank and Borrower (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), except, as to both “(i)” and “(ii)” in this Section 7, for losses caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  This Section 7 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

 

8. General.

 

8.1 No Waivers; Amendments.  The failure of Bank at any time to require Borrower to comply strictly with any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not waive Bank’s right to later demand and receive strict compliance.  Any waiver of a default shall not waive any other default.  None of the provisions of this Agreement may be waived except by a specific written waiver signed by Bank and delivered to Borrower.  The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended except in a writing signed by Borrower and Bank.

 

8.2  Bank Expenses; Attorneys’ Fees. Borrower shall reimburse Bank for all audit fees and expenses and reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) for preparing, negotiating, administering, defending and enforcing this Agreement and the other loan documents with Bank (including appeals or insolvency proceedings) (collectively, “Bank Expenses”).  If, subject to the foregoing, Bank or Borrower files any lawsuit against the other predicated on a breach of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees from the non-prevailing party.

 

8.3  Binding Effect; Assignment.  This Agreement is binding upon and for the benefit of the successors and permitted assignees of each party. Borrower may not assign any rights under this Agreement without Bank’s prior written consent.  Bank has the right, without the consent of or notice to Borrower, to sell transfer, assign, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Bank’s obligations, rights, and benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

8.4  Notices.  All notices by any party required or permitted under this Agreement or any other related agreement must be in writing and be personally delivered or sent by overnight delivery, certified mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested), or facsimile to the addresses and numbers below.

 

8.5  Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without regard to principles of conflicts of law.   Borrower and Bank each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts in Boston, Massachusetts: provided that if for 

 

3

 

any reason Bank cannot avail itself of such courts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Borrower accepts jurisdiction of the courts and venue in Santa Clara County, California.

 

8.6 Other. If any provision hereof is unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. This Agreement (including schedules hereto) and any other written agreements and, documents executed in connection herewith are the complete agreement between Borrower and Bank and supersede all prior and contemporaneous negotiations and oral representations and agreements, all of which are merged and integrated herein.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which when taken together will constitute one agreement.

 

9. Confidentiality.  In handling any confidential information, Bank will exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (i) to Bank’s Subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the loans (provided that Bank shall use commercially reasonable efforts in obtaining such transferee or purchasers agreement of the terms of this provision); (iii) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (iv) as required in connection with Bank’s examinations and audits; or (v) as Bank considers appropriate in exercising remedies under this Agreement.  Confidential information does not include information that is either: (a) in the public domain or in Bank’s possession when disclosed to Bank or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Bank; or (b) disclosed to Bank by a third party, if Bank does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information.

 

10.  Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial.  BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.

 

11.  Right of Set Off.   Borrower hereby grants to Bank, a lien, security interest and right of set off as security for all Obligations to Bank, whether now existing or hereafter arising upon and against all deposits, credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody, safekeeping or control of Bank or any entity under the control of Bank (including a Bank subsidiary) or in transit to any of them.  At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without demand or notice, Bank may set off the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Obligations.  ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE BANK TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF BORROWER ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.
