The term “exterior walls” as used in this Section 6(A) shall not include windows, glass or plate glass, doors, store fronts, office entries, or Demising Walls (as defined herein). Tenant shall immediately give Landlord written notice of defect or need for repairs, after which, to the extent Landlord is obligated hereunder to remedy such defect or make such repair, Landlord shall have reasonable opportunity to repair same or cure such defect. Landlord’s liability with respect to any defects, repairs or maintenance for which Landlord is responsible under any of the provisions of this Lease shall be limited to the cost of such repairs or maintenance or the curing of such defect.

Landlord shall maintain the Land, regularly performing the mowing of any grass, trimming, weed removal, general landscape maintenance, common exterior lighting (if applicable), and other exterior maintenance obligations of the Building, including but not limited to painting, the maintenance, repair and replacement of the downspouts, gutters, parking areas, driveways, and alleys in a clean and sanitary condition (“Landlord’s Exterior Maintenance”). In addition, Landlord may provide all or any part of Tenant’s repairs and obligations under Section 7(A) below. Tenant shall, pay monthly, as Additional Rent, its Proportionate Share of the estimated cost and expense, including, but not limited to, reasonable overhead, management and other fees, and reserves for costs incurred by Landlord pursuant to this Section 6. If, for any calendar year, or portion thereof during which the Lease is in effect, Tenant’s total monthly payments made pursuant to this Section 7(A) are less than Tenant’s actual Proportionate Share of such repair obligations, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand, as Additional Rent, the payment shortage, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date that is twenty (20) days after such demand, until fully paid. If the total estimated payments made by Tenant pursuant to this Section 6 in any calendar year, or portion thereof during which the Lease is in effect, are more than Tenant’s actual Proportionate Share of such repairs and obligations, Landlord shall retain such excess and credit it to Tenant’s next accruing monthly Rent payment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to pay, as Additional Rent, such other reasonable proportions of said repairs and obligations as may be determined by Landlord. Further, if it can be reasonably determined that any costs incurred by Landlord pursuant to this Section 6(B) are the result of the acts or omissions of Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors or licensees, Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, the entire cost thereof, upon demand, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of such demands until fully paid.
