LEASE AGREEMENT
---------------
Landlord hereby leases the Leased Premises to Tenant for the duration of the
Lease Term (subject to any early cancellation options granted to Tenant
hereunder). All reference herein to the Lease Term will mean both the initial
ten-year term and any renewal terms exercised by Tenant under this Lease. The
leasing of the Leased Premises to Tenant will be upon the terms and conditions
set forth in this Lease.
(S)1. BASE RENT. Tenant will pay Base Rent in the amount set forth in
---------
the Base Rent Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit A.
(S)2. EXCESS EXPENSE PAYMENTS. Tenant will pay the increase, if any,
-----------------------
of the Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord during the Lease Term over the
Base Expenses ("Excess Expenses"). For the purposes of this Lease, "Base
Expenses" will mean the actual Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord during
the calendar year 1997. A list of those expenses which are included within the
definition of "Operating Expenses" is set forth in Exhibit B. Any such Excess
Expenses will be paid by Tenant in advance based upon Landlord's estimate of the
Excess Expenses which will be incurred during each calendar year during the
Lease Term, beginning with the 1998 calendar year. Landlord will use its best
efforts to notify Tenant by December 1 of each year during the Lease Term,
beginning with the 1998 calendar year, of the amount of the estimated Excess
Expense payment which Tenant will be required to make for each month of the
upcoming calendar year.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant's obligation
to pay any Excess Expenses related to "Controllable Expenses" (as that term is
hereinafter defined) will be limited to an amount equal to the actual
Controllable Expenses incurred by Landlord during the calendar year 1997, with
increases capped at the rate of 7% per year for each calendar year thereafter.
For the purposes of this Lease, "Controllable Expenses" will have the meaning
set forth in Exhibit B.
As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each calendar year (beginning
with the 1998 calendar year), Landlord will deliver to Tenant a written
statement showing its actual Operating Expenses for such calendar year and the
amount of the Excess Expenses, if any. If the sum of the estimated Excess
Expense payments paid by Tenant during such calendar year exceeds the actual
Excess Expenses incurred during such year, then, at Landlord's election,
Landlord will either refund the excess to Tenant or apply the same toward the
next succeeding monthly estimated Excess Expense payment due from Tenant. If
the sum of the estimated Excess Expense payments paid by Tenant during such
calendar year is less than the actual Excess Expenses incurred during such year,
then Tenant will pay the deficiency to Landlord within ten days after Tenant's
receipt of Landlord's written demand for the payment thereof. If the Lease Term
expires on a date other than December 31, then the Excess Expenses for the last
calendar year during which the Lease Term is in effect will be prorated to take
into consideration the number of days during such calendar year in which the
Lease Term is in effect.
Tenant will have the right, upon reasonable prior written notice to Landlord, to
audit and make copies of Landlord's books, records and computations with respect
to its Operating Expenses. Landlord will retain such books, records and
computations for at least three years following the end of the calendar year to
which they relate. If any audit conducted by Tenant discloses an average in the
amount billed to Tenant over the amount actually due from Tenant hereunder, then
Landlord will reimburse Tenant for such overpayment and all reasonable costs and
professional fees incurred by Tenant in connection with its auditing of
Landlord's books, records and computations. The payments referred to in the
immediately
preceding sentence will be made by Landlord to Tenant within ten days after
Landlord's receipt of a detailed invoice identifying the amounts of such
Payments.
At Tenant's request, Landlord will provide Tenant with copies of any invoice
received by Landlord with respect to the imposition of any assessments against
the Building by any property owner's association (specifically, the Heathrow
International Business Center owner's association). Landlord will further, at
Tenant's request, assign and delegate to Tenant the right to contest the amount
of any such assessment granted to Landlord as the owner of the Building pursuant
to the applicable owner's association documents, a copy of which documents have
been previously furnished to Tenant by Landlord. Finally, if Tenant believes a
change is necessary in the identity of any on-site personnel assigned to the
Building by Landlord to perform property management or maintenance services,
Tenant will so notify Landlord and Landlord and Tenant will promptly meet to
address Tenant's concerns and, if appropriate, assign new personnel to perform
such services al the Building.
If Landlord obtains a refund or abatement of any real estate taxes or
assessments attributable to the Building, the amount of which has previously
been contributed to by Tenant, then, at Landlord's election, Landlord will
either pay Tenant's Proportionate Share of such refund or abatement to Tenant or
apply the amount thereof toward the next succeeding monthly estimated Excess
Expense payment(s) due from Tenant hereunder. Tenant will have the right, at
its own expense and in its name, to contest the amount, propriety, accuracy or
validity of any real estate taxes or assessments imposed against the Building.
Any refund or abatement of any real estate taxes or assessments which is
received by Landlord and which is attributable to Tenant's contesting of the
same pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence will be disbursed for
Tenant's benefit in the manner set forth in the first sentence of this
paragraph.
(S)3. MANNER AND TIMING OF RENT PAYMENTS. Monthly installments of Base
----------------------------------
Rent and estimated Excess Expense payments, if any, will be due and payable in
advance on or before the first day of each calendar month during the Lease Term.
Each such installment will be paid to Landlord at its address set forth in the
Lease Summary (or such other address as Landlord may designate from time to
time). If the Lease Term commences on a day other than the first day of the
month or terminates on a day other than the last day of the month, then the
installments of Base Rent and estimated Excess Expense payments for such
month(s) will be adjusted accordingly. If any installment of Base Rent or any
Excess Expense payment is not received by Landlord within ten days after
Tenant's receipt of written notice from Landlord that any such payment is due
and unpaid, then a late payment charge of 5% of such past due amount will be
assessed and will be immediately due and payable from Tenant. All installments
of Base Rent and estimated Excess Expense payments will be paid by Tenant
without demand and without any rights of reduction, counterclaim or offset.
Tenant hereby agrees to pay as additional rent any sales, use or other tax
(other than income taxes) now or hereafter imposed by any governmental authority
upon the rent and other sums payable by Tenant hereunder. The sales tax on Base
Rent initially payable by Tenant is set forth in the Base Rent Schedule attached
hereto as Exhibit A. Landlord will notify Tenant of any change in any tax
payable by Tenant as additional rent hereunder. Landlord's acceptance of any
payment which constitutes less than all of the balance then owed to it by Tenant
hereunder will be treated as its receipt of a payment "on account" and not as an
accord and satisfaction and Landlord may accept any such payment (regardless of
the existence of any endorsement or statement to the contrary contained on any
check or letter accompanying such payment) without prejudice to
-2-
Landlord's right to recover the balance of the amount owed to it or pursue any
other remedy provided for in this Lease.
(S)4. SERVICES. Landlord will provide all utility, HVAC and elevator
--------
services which are required for the use of the Leased Premises for general
office purposes during normal business hours (8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday
through Friday, and 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, holidays excepted). HVAC
service will be provided to the Leased Premises outside of the normal business
hours set forth above at a surcharge to Tenant of $22 per hour. To the extent
Tenant requires any such additional HVAC service, it will notify Landlord of its
need therefor by noon of the day prior to the day of its required additional
service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant will pay directly to the service
provider all costs related to the provision of telephone service to the Leased
Premises. If utility services to the Leased Premises are interrupted for a
period of three successive business days, such that Tenant cannot reasonably
operate its business in the Leased Premises, then, unless any such interruption
is attributable to the occurrence of any event beyond Landlord's reasonable
control, Tenant will be entitled to an abatement of Base Rent and Excess Expense
payments from the date of such interruption, until the provision of such utility
services to the Leased Premises is restored such that Tenant can operate its
business in the Leased Premises. Landlord will not be liable to Tenant, nor
will Tenant be relieved of any obligation hereunder if any service to the Leased
Premises is interrupted for any reason beyond Landlord's reasonable control. If
the interruption in the provision of utility services to the Leased Premises is
caused by any event beyond Landlord's reasonable control, Landlord will provide
written notice to such effect to Tenant.
The Building and the Leased Premises will be equipped with an ESP after-hours
exits proxy card reader system. Any other security system which may be
installed or upgraded in the Leased Premises by Tenant will be managed and paid
for by Tenant, subject to Landlord's prior approval as to the nature and extent
of such system.
Landlord will provide as part of the base Building improvements two 150 ton air
cooled water chillers; 2,500 amp, 480-277 V3 phase, 4W main electrical service
distributions and a 200 kilowatt emergency power generator. Any upgrade in the
aforementioned facilities resulting in increased construction costs will be
applied against the TI Allowance being provided to Tenant pursuant to (S)9
hereof.
(S)5. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR. Landlord will maintain the Building
----------------------
(including all common areas which serve the Building) and all structural
elements and mechanical systems located within the Leased Premises in a first
class condition, with all systems properly functioning; provided, however, that
Tenant (and not Landlord) will be required to pay all costs of maintaining the
same (over and above any insurance proceeds received by Landlord to reimburse it
for the cost of maintaining the same) if the need therefor arises due to the
fault or negligence of Tenant or its agents, employees or guests. Landlord will
also provide janitorial service to the Leased Premises five days per week in
accordance with the Janitorial Specifications attached hereto as Exhibit J.
Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this (S)5, Tenant will be responsible
and pay for all costs associated with maintaining and repairing the interior of
the Leased Premises, including, without limitation, all costs associated with
the painting of interior walls, the cleaning or replacing of wallcoverings and
floorcoverings and the replacing of light bulbs and light fixtures. Landlord
will not be liable to Tenant, nor will Tenant be relieved of any obligation
hereunder if Tenant's use of the Leased Premises is interrupted as a result of
Landlord's required entry into the Leased Premises
-3-
for the purpose of making any repairs, alterations or improvements to the
structural elements or mechanical systems located within the Leased Premises
(including, without limitation, the HVAC system).
Landlord will be required to purchase, install, maintain and replace all
Building and Leased Premises heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems,
equipment and installations, including, without limitation, mechanical plant for
chilled water and hot water, energy management systems (if any), supply and
return fans, supply and return ductwork, diffusers, heat pumps, VAV boxes and
all attendant piping, wiring, thermostats, sensors and other conduits and
appurtenances thereto required by the terms of this Lease and the Building Plans
attached hereto as Exhibit D, other than any of the same which are hereunder
defined in the next paragraph as "Equipment Room HVAC Systems" (collectively the
"HVAC Systems"). The purchase, installation, maintenance, repair and
replacement of the HVAC Systems will be at Landlord's sole cost and expense,
except that Landlord will have the right to pass-through to Tenant all Excess
Expenses and any Operating Expenses attributable to the HVAC systems, as the
term "Operating Expense" is otherwise defined in this Lease.
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this paragraph, Tenant will be solely
responsible, at its expense, for purchasing, installing, maintaining, repairing
and replacing: (i) all HVAC Systems that Tenant may need to supplement the HVAC
Systems described in the immediately preceding paragraph; and (ii) all HVAC
systems and equipment that are dedicated solely for use in, or service to, any
special equipment room that is used solely by Tenant and which requires 24 hours
per day, seven days per week, air conditioning (the equipment and systems
referred to in clauses (i) and (ii), above, are hereinafter collectively
referred to as the "Equipment Room HVAC Systems"). All or a portion of any TI
Allowance provided for in (S)9 of this Lease may be used by Tenant to pay the
expenses associated with the Equipment Room HVAC Systems described above.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that
portions of the Equipment Room HVAC System are an integral part of the
Building's overall HVAC Systems for which Landlord has responsibility as
described in the immediately preceding paragraph of this (S)5, then Tenant will
request that Landlord install, maintain, repair and replace such portions of the
Equipment Room HVAC System and Landlord will thereafter proceed to purchase,
install, maintain, repair and replace such portions of the Equipment Room HVAC
Systems. Upon completion of Landlord's purchase, installation, maintenance,
repair or replacement of any such portions of the Equipment Room HVAC Systems
pursuant to Tenant's request, Tenant will, within ten days after its receipt of
a written payment demand from Landlord, promptly reimburse Landlord for all
reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in connection with such work.
(S)6. USE OF LEASED PREMISES. Tenant will use the Leased Premises
----------------------
solely for the Permitted Use. Tenant will not cause or permit any waste or
damage to the Leased Premises or the Building and will not occupy or use the
Leased Premises for any business or purpose which is unlawful, hazardous,
unsanitary, noxious or offensive or which unreasonably interferes with the
business operations of other tenants in the Building. Tenant will comply with
the Rules and Regulations for the Building which are set forth in Exhibit C (and
any reasonable modifications thereto which are consistent with the provisions of
this Lease). Tenant will also have the non-exclusive right to use the common
areas which serve the Building, including, without limitation, the Building's
common lobbies, hallways, elevators, restrooms and parking areas.
-4-
(S)7. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Tenant will at its sole expense comply
-------------------
with all laws, governmental requirements and recommended covenants or conditions
which are now or hereafter in force pertaining to the Leased Premises and
Tenant's occupancy and use therefor, including, without limitation, the
Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended. Landlord (and not Tenant)
will, at its initial expense, make any and all structural or extraordinary
alterations (including without limitation, the installation of a sprinkler
system in the Leased Premises) which are required to be made to the Leased
Premises by law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental or quasi-
governmental authority (including, without limitation, any such governmental
authority charged with enforcing the Americans with Disabilities Act
requirements), board of fire insurance underwriters, Landlord's insureds or any
other similar authority, if such alterations are not necessitated by Tenant's
particular use or occupancy of the Leased Premises. Landlord hereby represents
and warrants to Tenant that, as of the Commencement Date, the Building will be
in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
(S)8. SIGNS. Tenant will be identified on monument signage located at
-----
the front of the tract of land on which the Building is located. In addition,
to the extent the park covenants for the Heathrow International Business Center
and any applicable zoning or building codes permit the erection of signage on
the Building itself, Landlord will provide Building signage identifying Tenant.
The cost of any such Building signage will be part of the tenant improvement
allowance being granted to Tenant pursuant to (S)9. The location, design and
composition of the monument sign, as well as any permitted Building sign, will
be consistent with the signage specifications attached hereto as Exhibit J. To
the extent Tenant requests any variance from the attached signage
specifications, then any such variance will be subject to Landlord's prior
review and approval. Except as otherwise provided above, Tenant will not place
any other sign or advertising material on the exterior of the Building, without
the prior written consent of Landlord.
(S)9. LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS. Landlord will construct the Building in
----------------------
substantial accordance with the building plans and specifications previously
furnished to Tenant ("Building Plans"), which Building Plans are identified in
Exhibit D. Landlord will use its best efforts to substantially complete the
construction of the Building in such a time frame, so as to facilitate the
substantial completion of the improvements to the Leased Premises by the
targeted Commencement Date set forth in the Lease Summary (subject to the
occurrence of the "Delay Events" defined later in this (S)9).
Landlord will provide a tenant improvement allowance of $2,016,420 ("TI
Allowance") for the construction of leasehold improvements to the Leased
Premises below a finished ceiling ("Improvements"). To the extent the cost of
the improvements ultimately approved by Landlord and Tenant is more or less than
the aforementioned TI Allowance, then the annual Base Rent payable by Tenant
during each year of the initial ten-year Lease Term will be increased (in the
case of excess costs) or decreased (in the case of diminished costs), as the
case may be, by an amount equal to 16.5% of such excess or diminished costs.
Landlord and Tenant agree that, promptly following the parties' execution of
this Lease, they will meet to develop approved preliminary specifications for
the Improvements. Once Landlord and Tenant have approved preliminary
specifications for the Improvements, Landlord will proceed with the preparation
of the final architectural and engineering drawings, plans and specifications
for the Improvements. Once those drawings, plans and specifications are
completed, Landlord will deliver a full set thereof to Tenant
-5-
for its review and approval. The approved final drawings, plans and
specifications ("Final Plans") will be deemed incorporated herein by its
reference.
If, following the approval of the Final Plans, Tenant expresses a desire to make
any revisions thereto, Tenant will so notify Landlord and Landlord will then ask
its general contractor to prepare a cost estimate for the making of such
changes. Landlord will promptly notify Tenant of any increased costs or savings
resulting from such changes and Tenant will have the right to require Landlord
to cause such changes to be made to the final Plans; provided, however, that
such changes will not unreasonably affect the structurally integrity or value of
the Building. If the aggregate of all such changes results in a net increase or
decrease in the cost of the construction of the Improvements, then any such
difference will be taken into consideration in adjusting the Base Rent in the
manner contemplated in the second paragraph of this (S)9.
Tenant will have the right to select a bonded, licensed contractor to
participate in open bidding for the contract to construct the Improvements.
Landlord will keep Tenant fully apprised of and invite Tenant's participation in
and review of all general contractor bids for the construction of the
Improvements. Landlord will consult with Tenant with regard to the final
selection of a general contractor to construct the Improvements. The general
contractor ultimately selected to construct the Improvements will be a general
contractor, which is reasonably acceptable to both Landlord and Tenant. If all
of the bids received with respect to the construction of the Improvements are
substantially higher than the TI Allowance, then Tenant will have the right to
cause Landlord to revise the Final Plans and resubmit the same to the designated
general contractors, asking them for a revised bid, so as to try to reduce the
ultimate cost of such Improvements; provided, however, that any delay in
Landlord's construction of the Improvements caused by the revision of such Final
Plans and the resubmission thereof to the designated general contractors will be
treated as a Tenant-caused delay within the meaning of this (S)9. Landlord
agrees that all bids solicited by it from general contractors with respect to
the construction of the Improvements will be required to include a schedule of
values so as to facilitate the identification and computation of change orders
and cost modifications. Finally, Tenant will have the right to select an
independent construction management firm to supervise construction of the
Improvements on Tenant's behalf, with all fees to be paid to such construction
manager to be included in the TI Allowance.
Landlord will cause the improvements to be constructed in accordance with the
Final Plans. Landlord will conduct a "walk-through" of the Leased Premises with
Tenant, so as to permit Tenant the right and opportunity to confirm that the
improvements have been constructed in accordance with the Final Plans. Landlord
will use its best efforts to substantially complete construction of the
Improvements on or before the targeted Commencement Date set forth in the Lease
Summary, subject to delays caused by the occurrence of events beyond its
reasonable control, including, without limitation, labor troubles, inability to
procure materials, restrictive governmental laws, actions and pronouncements,
acts of God, unseasonable weather, Tenant's failure to timely respond to any
matter submitted for its review, and Tenant's requested change orders ("Delay
Events"). The establishment of the substantial completion date referred to in
the immediately preceding sentence is predicated upon the various Construction
Milestone Dates referred to in Exhibit E being met in a timely manner with
respect to the preparation, submission and approval of all preliminary
specifications and Final Plans. Tenant agrees that it will review and either
review or specify its objections to any documents or drawings submitted to it
for its review and approval hereunder within ten days after its receipt of the
same. If Tenant fails to respond to any submission to
-6-
it within ten days after its receipt of the same, then it will be deemed to have
approved the same for all purposes of this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, if Landlord's inability to substantially complete
the improvements on or before the targeted Commencement Date set forth in the
Lease Summary is attributable to Tenant-caused delays (including, without
limitation, Tenant's failure to timely respond to any matter submitted for its
review, delays caused by Tenant' s requested change orders or Tenant's failure
to meet the Construction Milestone Dates referred to in Exhibit E), then the
Commencement Date will remain as set forth in the Lease Summary, notwithstanding
the fact that the Improvements are not yet substantially completed, and Tenant
will, from and after the Commencement Date, have an obligation to pay Base Rent
and perform all of its other obligations and duties set forth in this Lease. If
Landlord's failure to substantially complete the improvements to the Leased
Premises by the targeted Commencement Date set forth in the Lease Summary is
attributable to any reason other than a Tenant-caused delay (as that term is
defined above), then, subject to the remaining provisions of this (S)9 with
respect to the imposition of per diem penalties and the grant to Tenant of a
right to terminate the Lease, the Commencement Date and the Termination Date
will each be deferred by the number of days of the delay in substantially
completing the improvements to the Leased Premises and Tenant's obligation to
pay Base Rent and perform all of its other obligations and duties set forth in
this Lease will be similarly deferred until the deferred Commencement Date
hereunder.
If the Leased Premises are not substantially completed by November 1, 1996, for
any reason other than the occurrence of any Delay Event, then Landlord will be
obligated to pay a per diem penalty to Tenant equal to $967 per day for each day
after November 1, 1996 until the Leased Premises are so substantially completed.
If the Leased Premises are not substantially completed by January 1, 1997, for
any reason other than the occurrence of any Delay Event, then Tenant will have
the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of the
termination thereof to Landlord on or before January 31, 1997.
For the purposes of this Lease, the improvements will be deemed "substantially
completed" on the earlier of the date on which Tenant occupies the Leased
Premises or the date on which a certificate of occupancy for the Improvements is
issued by the appropriate governmental authority. To the extent Tenant occupies
a part, but not all of the Leased Premises prior to the Commencement Date as it
relates to the entire Leased Premises, then all of the terms and conditions of
this Lease will nonetheless apply to Tenant's occupancy of such part of the
Leased Premises prior to such Commencement Date and Tenant will pay Base Rent
hereunder in an amount equal to the Base Rent payable hereunder for the entire
Leased Premises, multiplied by a fraction having as its numerator the number of
rentable square feet so occupied by Tenant and having as its denominator the
total number of rentable square feet contained within the Leased Premises.
(S)10. ALTERATIONS. Except for "Minor Alterations" (as that term is
-----------
hereinafter defined), Tenant may not at any time during the Lease Term make any
alterations, additions or improvements to the Leased Premises, without the prior
written consent of Landlord. For the purposes of this (S)10, "Minor
Alterations" will mean any alteration, addition or improvement to the Leased
Premises which cost less than $50,000 and which does not alter the exterior
aesthetics or structural integrity of the Building. All improvements,
alterations and additions made at one time in connection with any one job will
be aggregated for the purposes of determining whether the $50,000 limit has been
exceeded. Any alterations, additions or improvements made to the Leased
Premises in accordance with this (S)10 will at
-7-
all times remain the property of Landlord. If Landlord consents to any proposed
alteration, addition or improvement, the same will be made by Landlord at
Tenant's sole expense.
(S)11. MECHANICS LIENS. Tenant will indemnify and hold Landlord
---------------
harmless from any liability or expense associated with its construction of any
alteration, addition or improvement to the Leased Premises. In particular,
Tenant will execute and record an appropriate notice of commencement pursuant to
Chapter 713, Florida Statutes, identifying Tenant's interest in the Leased
Premises as a leasehold interest only. Tenant will immediately discharge any
mechanics lien filed against the Leased Premises or the Building in connection
with any work performed by Tenant.
(S)12. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Except as otherwise expressly
-------------------------
provided herein, Tenant will not assign this Lease or sublet all or any part of
the Leased Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord. Unless
otherwise agreed to by Landlord, Landlord's consent to any such assignment or
sublease will not relieve Tenant from its obligations under this Lease. The
consent of Landlord to any assignment of Tenant's interest in any part of this
Lease or the subletting of any part of the Leased Premises will not be
unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the above, Tenant may assign this Lease
or sublet the Leased Premises or any part thereof to a subsidiary, affiliate or
parent of Tenant, provided that any such permitted assignment or subletting will
not relieve Tenant from any liability under this Lease and provided further that
Tenant provides Landlord with written notice of its intention to so assign or
sublet to its subsidiary, affiliate or parent corporation no later than ten days
prior to its effecting of such assignment or subletting.
If Landlord fails to respond to any written request made by Tenant under the
terms of this (S)12 within 30 days after its receipt of such written request,
then it will conclusively be deemed to have given its consent to such request by
Tenant. Landlord also agrees to exempt from the foregoing assignment and
subletting clause, Tenant's duty to obtain Landlord's consent for any assignment
resulting from a merger, consolidation, takeover or sale of Tenant's entire
business. Assignments of this Lease or the Leased Premises arising from any
such merger, consolidation, takeover or sale of Tenant's entire business will
not constitute a default under terms of this Lease. Tenant will, however, be
required to provide Landlord with at least ten days prior written notice of the
occurrence of any such merger, consolidation, takeover or sale of Tenant's
entire business.
(S)13. SUBORDINATION AND NONDISTURBANCE AGREEMENT. The priority of this
------------------------------------------
Lease and the leasehold estate of Tenant created hereunder are and will be
subject and subordinate to the lien of any mortgage or ground lease, which may
now or hereafter affect the Building and to all renewals, modifications,
consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof, and all advances
thereunder, effective upon the date the mortgagee or ground lessor, as the case
may be, delivers to Tenant a subordination, nondisturbance and attornment
agreement in recordable form and otherwise in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit F, which agreement has been executed and acknowledge by and on behalf of
the mortgage or ground lessor. The subordination, nondisturbance and attornment
agreement will provide, among other things, that so long as Tenant is not in
default hereunder, Tenant may remain in possession of the Leased Premises
pursuant to the terms hereof, and without any diminution of Tenant's rights
should Landlord become in default with respect to such mortgage or ground lease
or should the Leased Premises become the subject of any action to foreclose any
mortgage or to dispossess Landlord of its interest in the
-8-
Building. Any fee which Landlord's lender or ground lessor may charge with
respect to any such subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreement will
be paid by Landlord.
(S)14. LIMITATION OF LANDLORD'S PERSONAL LIABILITY. Tenant will look
-------------------------------------------
solely to Landlord's interest in the Leased Premises and the Building (and, to
the extent appropriate, to the proceeds of insurance required to be maintained
by Landlord under (S)(S)15 and 16 hereof) for the recovery of any judgment
against Landlord; it being the express intent of the parties hereto that neither
Landlord, nor any of its partners will ever be personally liable for any such
judgment.
(S)15. INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE. Landlord will not be liable for
-----------------------------
and Tenant hereby releases Landlord from any liability or expense associated
with any damage or injury to any person or property (including any person or
property of Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant) which arises directly or
indirectly in connection with the Leased Premises or Tenant's use or occupancy
of the Leased Premises or any common areas serving the Building, provided,
however, that the foregoing release will not extend to any liability or expense
occasioned by the fault or negligence of Landlord. Tenant will indemnify and
hold Landlord harmless from any of the above-described liabilities and expenses;
provided, however, that Tenant will not be obligated to indemnify Landlord as to
any liability or expense occasioned by the fault or negligence of Landlord.
Landlord will indemnify, hold harmless and defend Tenant from and against any
and all claims, demands, damages, judgments, fines, penalties, losses, costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, any of the same related to appeals),
incurred by Tenant as the result of the negligent or willful acts or omissions
of Landlord, its agents, contractors or employees or as a result of a material
breach of the provisions of this Lease by Landlord. Except as otherwise
provided in (S)16 hereof, nothing contained in this Lease will be construed or
interpreted to excuse Landlord from having to pay damages caused to Tenant as
the result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord's
agents, contractors or employees.
All property stored or placed by Tenant in or about the Leased Premises will be
so stored or placed at the sole risk of Tenant. Tenant will at its sole expense
maintain in full force and effect at all times during the Lease Term: (a)
commercial general liability insurance for personal injury and property damage
with liability limits of not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit and
$2,000,000 general aggregate for property damage; and (b) fire and extended
coverage insurance on all property stored or placed by Tenant in or about the
Leased Premises in an amount equal to the full replacement value thereof. Each
insurance policy required to be maintained by Tenant hereunder will name
Landlord as an additional insured and will specifically provide that such
insurance policy cannot be terminated without giving at least 30 days prior
written notice to Landlord.
(S)16. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Landlord and Tenant each hereby waives
---------------------
its right to receive damages against the other party with respect to any loss or
claim occasioned by the occurrence of any casualty to the Building or the Leased
Premises which is covered under a valid and collectible fire and extended
coverage insurance policy. Any insurance policy procured by either Tenant or
Landlord hereunder will contain an express waiver of any right of subrogation by
the insurance company against Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be.
Landlord will maintain in full force and effect at all times during the Lease
Term: (a) comprehensive public liability insurance for personal injury and
property damage with liability limits of not less than
-9-
$5,000,000 for injury to one person, $10,000,000 for injury from one occurrence
and $2,000,000 for property damage; and (b) fire and extended coverage insurance
on the Building in an amount equal to the full replacement value thereof. Each
insurance policy required to be maintained by Landlord hereunder will name
Tenant as an additional insured. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord's cost of
maintaining such insurance will be an Operating Expense for the purposes of (S)2
of this Lease. Tenant reserves the right to periodically review the expense
associated with Landlord's maintenance of the foregoing insurance coverages and
to substitute comparable coverages and conditions of insurance with other
carriers of Tenant's choice in the event the expense is deemed by Tenant to be
excessive.
(S)17. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES. Tenant will not use, store or dispose of
--------------------
any "hazardous substance," "hazardous material" or "toxic substance" (as those
terms are defined or used in the context of Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act or any other federal, state or local
environmental law, regulation or requirement) on or about the Leased Premises,
except for immaterial amounts that are exempt from or do not give rise to any
violation of applicable law. Tenant will indemnify and hold Landlord harmless
from any liability or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorney's fees and expenses, court costs, expenses and costs incurred in the
investigation, settlement and defense of claims and any cost or expense incurred
in connection with any environmental clean-up) incurred by or claimed against
Landlord as a result of Tenant's breach of the covenant contained in this
section. The foregoing indemnification (as well as the indemnification set
forth in (S)15 of this Lease) will survive the expiration or sooner termination
of the Lease Term.
Landlord hereby represents and warrants that the Building does not contain any
Hazardous Substance, underground storage tank or asbestos-containing material in
violation of any Federal, state or local laws, ordinances or regulations.
Landlord agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Tenant harmless from and against
any liability, loss, claim, action or expense incurred by or claimed against
Tenant (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees) related to or
arising out of a breach of the foregoing representation or warranty.
(S)18. SURRENDER OF PREMISES. Upon the termination of Tenant's right of
---------------------
possession under this Lease, Tenant will immediately surrender possession of the
Leased Premises to Landlord in good repair and "broom clean" condition,
excepting reasonable wear and tear and any damages caused by the elements,
casualty or any other cause for which Tenant is not liable hereunder. Tenant
will have the option, but not the obligation, to remove any or all of the
improvements and alterations made to the Leased Premises by Tenant at Tenant's
expense. Any damage to the Leased Premises resulting from the removal of such
improvements or alterations will be repaired by Tenant at Tenant's sole expense.
Tenant will at the same time remove all of its trade fixtures from the Leased
Premises. Tenant will promptly repair any damage caused to the Leased Premises
by the removal of any of such trade fixtures.
(S)19. CASUALTY. If the Leased Premises is damaged by fire or other
--------
casualty, the Landlord will promptly give written notice to Tenant whether the
damaged area can reasonably be repaired within 180 days after the date on which
all requisite permits and licenses for the repair thereof are obtained from the
appropriate governmental authorities. If Landlord notifies Tenant that it does
not believe that the damaged area can reasonably be repaired within such 180-day
period, then both Landlord and Tenant will have the option of terminating this
Lease by giving written notice thereof to the other at any time within 30 days
after the date of Tenant's receipt of the aforementioned notice from Landlord.
If Landlord
-10-
determines that the damaged area can reasonably be repaired within such 180-day
period or if neither party elects to terminate this Lease despite the fact that
Landlord has determined that the damaged area cannot be reasonably repaired
within such 180-day period, then Landlord will proceed to repair the damaged
area at its sole expense; provided, however, that Landlord will in no event be
required to repair any improvements previously made to the Leased Premises by or
at the request of Tenant pursuant to (S)10 hereof. If the Leased Premises are
rendered untenantable in whole or in part as a result of a fire or other
casualty which was not caused by Tenant, then all rent and other payments
accruing after the occurrence of any such fire or other casualty and prior to
the completion of the repair of the Leased Premises will be equitably and
proportionately abated to reflect the untenantable portion of the Leased
Premises. Landlord will not be liable to Tenant for any inconvenience or
interruption to Tenant's business occasioned by such fire or other casualty or
the concomitant repair of the damaged area.
In addition to the termination rights given to Landlord and Tenant in the
immediately preceding paragraph of this (S)19, Tenant will also have the right
to terminate this Lease upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (a)
the occurrence of any fire or other casualty during the last two years of the
Lease Term it at least 50% of the rentable square feet contained within the
Leased Premises are rendered untenantable as a result of the occurrence of such
fire or other casualty; (b) Landlord's failure to begin its repair of any
damaged area in the Leased Premises caused by such fire or other casualty within
60 days after the occurrence thereof, subject to the occurrence of any Delay
Event (as that term is defined in (S)9 hereof); or (c) Landlord's failure
(subject to the occurrence of any Delay Event) to complete the repair of any
damaged area within 180 days after the date on which all requisite permits and
licenses for the repair thereof are obtained from the appropriate governmental
authorities, notwithstanding the fact that Landlord had earlier given written
notice to Tenant that the damaged area could reasonably be repaired within the
aforementioned 180 day period. Tenant will exercise any termination right
granted to it in this paragraph by giving written notice of such termination to
Landlord at any time within thirty days after the date of the occurrence of the
event giving rise to Tenant's termination right hereunder. If this Lease is
terminated in accordance with the provisions of this (S)19, all Base Rent,
Excess Expense payments and other monetary obligations of Tenant hereunder will
be prorated effective as of the date of Tenant's delivery of any such
termination notice to Landlord.
(S)20. CONDEMNATION. If all or any substantial portion of the Leased
------------
Premises is taken by or under threat of condemnation so as to render the Leased
Premises wholly untenantable, then this Lease will automatically terminate as of
the date of the vesting of title to such property in the condemning authority.
If such taking does not render the Leased Premises wholly untenantable, then
this Lease will not terminate but will continue in full force and effect in
accordance with its terms, except that the Base Rent and Tenant's Proportionate
Share will be adjusted to fairly reflect the portion of the Leased Premises
which was so taken. Landlord will not be liable to Tenant for any inconvenience
or interruption to Tenant's business occasioned by any such taking. Landlord
will be entitled to receive the entire award made by the condemning authority
for any such taking. Landlord will promptly notify Tenant of the institution of
any condemnation proceeding affecting the Leased Premises.
(S)21. HOLDING OVER. Tenant will have the right to hold over in its
------------
occupancy of the Leased Premises after the expiration of the Lease Term for a
period of 90 days, provided that it has given written notice of its intention to
so hold over to Landlord at least 120 days prior to the expiration of the Lease
Term, and provided further that the monthly Base Rent payable by Tenant during
the holdover term will
-11-
be 125% of the Base Rent in effect for the last month of the Lease Term. Except
as otherwise provided above, Tenant will not hold over in its occupancy of the
Leased Premises after the expiration of the Lease Term, without the prior
written consent of Landlord.
(S)22. DEFAULT. If Tenant fails to pay any installment of Base Rent or
-------
any other sum payable by it hereunder within ten days after its receipt (and the
receipt thereof by any guarantor of Tenant's obligations hereunder) of written
notice from Landlord that any such sum is due and unpaid hereunder, or if Tenant
defaults in the performance of any of its other obligations under this Lease and
such default continues for 30 days after written notice thereof is given to
Tenant (and any guarantor of Tenant's obligations hereunder) (unless such
default is not capable of being cured within the aforementioned 30-day period,
in which event, Tenant will have such longer grace period as is reasonably
required to cure such default, provided that Tenant commences the cure thereof
within the aforementioned 30-day period and at all times thereafter diligently
pursue such cure to completion), then, in addition to any other legal rights and
remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, Landlord may: (a) terminate
Tenant's right of possession under this Lease and declare all Base Rent and
estimated Excess Expense payments payable over the remainder of the Lease Term
to be immediately due and payable; or (b) reenter and attempt to relet the
Leased Premises without terminating this Lease, in which event Tenant will
remain obligated to pay to Landlord any deficiency between all sums payable by
Tenant pursuant to this Lease and any sums collected by Landlord from any
reletting of the Leased Premises (net of any sums paid by Landlord in connection
with such reletting, including, without limitation, leasing commissions,
attorneys' fees and costs of improvements to the Leased Premises).
If Landlord defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this
Lease and such default continues for thirty days after its receipt of written
notice (unless such default is not capable of being cured within the
aforementioned 30-day period, in which event, Landlord will have such longer
grace period as is reasonably required to cure such default, provided that
Landlord commences the cure thereof within the aforementioned 30-day period and
at all times thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion), then, in
addition to any other legal rights and remedies available to Tenant at law or in
equity, Tenant will have the right to take all reasonable actions required to
cure such default and Tenant may thereafter offset the reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by Tenant in curing such default against any Base Rent payable
by Tenant hereunder.
(S)23. PREVAILING PARTY'S FEES. If any legal action is commenced by
-----------------------
either Landlord or Tenant, to enforce its rights hereunder, then all attorneys'
fees, paralegal fees and other expenses incurred by the prevailing party in such
action shall be promptly paid by the non-prevailing party.
(S)24. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Lease shall be binding upon and
----------------------
inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Landlord and the
successors and permitted assigns of Tenant.
(S)25. NO WAIVER. No waiver of any covenant or condition of this Lease
---------
by either party will be deemed to constitute a future waiver of the same or any
other covenant or condition of this Lease. In order to be effective, any such
waiver must be in writing and must be delivered to other party to this Lease.
-12-
(S)26. BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. Each of Landlord and Tenant hereby
---------------------
represents and warrants that it has not dealt or consulted with any real estate
broker or agent in connection with this Lease other than those real estate
brokers and agents specifically identified in the Agency Disclosure Statement
attached hereto as Exhibit G. Each of Landlord and Tenant agrees to indemnify
and hold the other harmless from and against any liability or expense occasioned
by a breach of the foregoing representation.
(S)27. REASONABLENESS OF CONSENT. Landlord shall not unreasonably
-------------------------
withhold any consent or approval which is required to be given by it pursuant to
the terms of this Lease.
(S)28. AMENDMENT. This Lease may not be amended except by a written
---------
instrument signed by both Landlord and Tenant.
(S)29. GOVERNING LAW. This Lease will be governed by and construed in
-------------
accordance with the laws of the State of Florida.
(S)30. NOTICES. All notices required or permitted under this Lease must
-------
be in writing and must be delivered to Landlord and Tenant at their addresses
set forth in the Lease Summary (or such other address as may hereafter be
designated by such party). Any such notice must be personally delivered or sent
by registered or certified mail, overnight courier or facsimile transmission.
Any such notice will be deemed effective when received (if sent by hand
delivery, overnight courier or facsimile transmission) or on the date which is
three days after such notice of deposit in the United States mail (if sent by
registered or certified mail).
(S)31. RENEWAL OPTIONS. Tenant will have the option to renew this Lease
---------------
for two renewal terms of five years each. Each such renewal option must be
exercised, if at all, by Tenant's delivery of written notice of exercise to
Landlord at least 150 days prior to the scheduled expiration of the then
existing term (be it the initial lease term or the first renewal term).
Tenant's right to renew this Lease will be conditioned upon the Lease being in
full force and effect, without any default on the part of Tenant, both at the
time of Tenant's exercise of such option and at the time of the scheduled
commencement of such renewal term. Each such renewal term will be upon all of
the same terms and conditions set forth in this Lease with respect to the
initial lease term, except that the Base Rent for each year during each such
renewal term will be equal to the Base Rent payable during the immediately
preceding year, plus $.25 for every rentable square foot contained within the
Leased Premises. With respect to each renewal term exercised by Tenant
hereunder, Landlord will provide to Tenant a refurbishment allowance equal to
$302,463 ($3.00 per rentable square foot contained within the Leased Premises).
The amount of the refurbishment allowance will be paid to Tenant within ten days
after Landlord's approval of the refurbishing plans for the Leased Premises
submitted to it by Tenant.
(S)32. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. If at any time during the Lease Term any
----------------------
space becomes available either in the 300 International Parkway Building or the
500 International Parkway Building ("Vacant Space"), then Landlord will promptly
give written notice to Tenant of the existence of such Vacant Space. Tenant
will have ten calendar days after its receipt of such written notice from
Landlord in which to exercise its option to lease the Vacant Space at a rental
rate and upon such other terms and conditions as are specified in this Lease
with respect to the Leased Premises (including, without limitation, a provision
that the term of its leasing of any such vacant space will be co-terminus with
the expiration of
-13-
the lease term for the Leased Premises). Tenant will exercise such right of
first option or first offer, if at all, by delivering written notice of its
exercise of the same to Landlord within the aforementioned ten calendar day
period. If Tenant fails to provide Landlord with such written notice within the
aforementioned ten calendar day period or if Tenant expressly declines to
exercise its right hereunder, then, in either such event, Landlord will
thereafter have the unrestricted right to lease the Vacant Space to any third
party at such rental rate and upon such terms and conditions as Landlord deems
appropriate. If Tenant leases any additional space pursuant to this section,
Landlord and Tenant will enter into an addendum to this Lease reflecting the
terms and conditions specified herein for the leasing of such additional space.
(S)33. EXPANSION OPTION. Effective as of the first anniversary of the
----------------
Commencement Date and as of the first day of the seventh, thirteenth, nineteenth
and twenty-fifth calendar months thereafter, Tenant will have the right to lease
additional space (to the extent the same is vacant and available) in either the
300 International Parkway Building, the 500 International Parkway Building or
any other building owned by Landlord (or any affiliate of Landlord) in the
Heathrow International Business Center ("Expansion Space"). Tenant will
exercise any such expansion option, if at all, by delivering written notice of
the exercise of such option to Landlord by no later than ninety days prior to
the scheduled commencement date of its rental of such expansion space (as such
dates are specified in the first sentence of this (S)33). Any exercise of the
expansion option by Tenant hereunder must be in increments of at least 5,000
rentable square feet of space. If Tenant exercises any such expansion option,
its leasing of such Expansion Space will be upon all of the same terms and
conditions set forth in this Lease with respect to the Leased Premises
(including, without limitation, a provision that the term of its leasing of
such Expansion Space will be coterminous with the expiration of the Lease Term
for the Leased Premises), except that the Base Rent will be equal to 95% of the
fair market rent for comparable buildings in comparable locations and any tenant
improvement allowance to be provided to Tenant will be equal to the fair market
tenant improvement allowance for comparable buildings in comparable locations.
If Tenant leases any additional space pursuant to this section, Landlord and
Tenant will enter into an addendum to this Lease reflecting the terms and
conditions specified herein for the leasing of such additional space.
(S)34. CANCELLATION OPTION. Tenant will have the right to cancel this
-------------------
Lease effective as of the end of the fifth year of the Initial Lease Term or
effective as of the end of the seventh year of the Initial Lease Term. Tenant's
exercise of any such option will be exercised, if at all, by its delivery of
written notice to Landlord on or before the date which is at least 180 days
prior to the scheduled effective date of such cancellation. Tenant's right to
cancel this Lease will be conditioned upon the Lease being in full force and
effect, without any default on the part of Tenant, both at the time of Tenant's
exercise of such option and at the time of the scheduled cancellation of this
Lease. It will be a condition to Tenant's exercise of either such cancellation
option (that is, the cancellation option effective as of the end of the fifth
year of the initial Lease Term or the cancellation option effective as of the
seventh year of the Initial Lease Term) that Tenant pay to Landlord at the same
time as it delivers its written notice of the exercise of such cancellation
option cash in a sum equal to $2,424,520 (if the exercise of such option is
effective as of the end of the fifth year of the initial Lease Term) of
$1,789,970 (if the cancellation is effective as of the end of the seventh year
of the initial Lease Term). To the extent the Base Rent payable by Tenant
hereunder is adjusted pursuant to the provisions of (S)9, 32 or 33 of this
Lease, the amount of the aforementioned cancellation penalties will also be
adjusted to reflect such Base Rent adjustment in a
-14-
manner which is consistent with the mode of the initial calculation of the
aforementioned cancellation penalties.
(S)35. RELOCATION AND PLANNING EXPENSES. Landlord will provide Tenant
--------------------------------
with the following allowances: (a) an amount equal to $2.00 per rentable square
foot contained within the Leased Premises to defray Tenant's costs of relocating
to the Leased Premises; and (b) an amount equal to $1.50 per rentable square
foot of space contained within the Leased Premises to defray Tenant's costs of
the preparation of space plans and all services and documentation necessary for
the completion of construction documents with respect to the Leased Premises.
The relocation allowance referred to in clause (a), above, will be paid by
Landlord to Tenant on or before September 1, 1996. The space planning allowance
referred to in clause (b), above, will be paid by Landlord to Tenant
periodically after the date of the parties' execution of this Lease, upon
Tenant's presentation to Landlord of invoices indicating the amount of the
expenses incurred by Tenant in connection with the preparation of space plans
and all construction documents related to the Leased Premises.
(S)36. PARKING. Landlord will provide Tenant with 403 parking spaces,
-------
of which 25 spaces will be reserved parking spaces for the senior management of
Tenant. All such parking will be provided at no additional cost to Tenant. The
location of the reserved spaces will be subject to mutual agreement by Landlord
and Tenant. The signage identifying the existence of any reserved parking
spaces will be consistent in use with the reserved parking signage presently in
use at the 300 International Parkway building.
(S)37. NONCOMPETITION CLAUSE. From and after the date of the parties
---------------------
execution of this Lease and throughout the Lease Term so long as Tenant remains
in possession of the Leased Premises without any default on Tenant's part,
should Landlord lease any other space in the Building to any person, firm or
corporation engaged in the same or similar type of business as that of Tenant
(including vendors or distributors of products of any such person or
corporation), then Tenant will have the option at any time thereafter to cancel
and terminate this Lease and Tenant will have no further obligation to Landlord
hereunder.
(S)38. ROOFTOP ANTENNA. Tenant will have the right, at its expense, to
---------------
install, maintain and remove a satellite dish-type antenna on the roof of the
Building, so long as the installation thereof does not violate any applicable
zoning or building codes or any restrictive covenants applicable to the business
park in which the Building is located. The location of any such antennae on the
roof of the Building will be subject to the prior approval of Landlord.
(S)39. ZONING. Landlord represents, warrants and covenants as follows:
------
(a) the Leased Premises are presently zoned so as to permit the construction and
lawful use of the Leased Premises in accordance with the provisions hereof; (b)
there are sufficient parking spaces dedicated to the Building so as to comply
with all applicable zoning codes; and (c) Landlord's title to the Leased
Premises is not subject to any covenant, agreement, reservation, lien, easement,
restriction or encumbrance, which would prohibit Tenant from using the Leased
Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease.
(S)40. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL TO PURCHASE BUILDING. If at any time
-------------------------------------------
during the Lease Term, Landlord receives a bona fide written offer from a third
party to purchase the Building ("Third Party
-15-
Offer"), which Landlord is willing to accept, then Landlord will notify Tenant
thereof and will afford Tenant a period of thirty days in which to elect to
purchase the Building on the identical terms and conditions set forth in the
Third Party Offer. If Tenant gives Landlord written notice within the
aforementioned thirty day period that Tenant so elects to purchase the Building,
then Tenant will proceed to purchase the Building from Landlord upon the
identical terms and conditions set forth in the Third Party Offer; provided that
Landlord can convey good and marketable title thereto, by full warranty deed,
such title being insurable by a nationally-known title company at standard rates
for an ALTA policy. If Tenant declines to purchase the Building or fails to
respond to Landlord's notice within the aforementioned thirty-day period, then
Landlord will be free to sell the Building on the terms and conditions set forth
in the Third Party Offer; provided, however, that if the Building is not sold
within 90 days after the outside date for closing specified in such Third Party
Offer, then Landlord will be again obligated to offer the Building for sale to
Tenant as hereinabove provided. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that if the Third Party
Offer involves the purchase by such third party of any properly owned by
Landlord or any affiliate thereof in addition to the Building, then Tenant, as a
condition precedent to its exercise of its right of first refusal hereunder,
will similarly be obligated to purchase both the Building and such additional
property on identical terms and conditions set forth in the Third Party Offer.
In addition, if any brokerage commission is due from Landlord to Commercial
First Properties, Inc. as a result of Tenant's purchase of the Building pursuant
to the rights granted to it pursuant to this (S)40, then the purchase price
payable by Tenant for its acquisition of the Building will be increased by the
excess, if any, of any commission so payable by Landlord to Commercial First
Properties, Inc., less the amount of any commission payable by Landlord to any
unaffiliated real estate broker representing the Buyer under the Third Party
Offer, and such excess amount will be paid in cash at closing by Tenant.
(S)41. SELF-FUNDING OF TENANT IMPROVEMENTS. Tenant will have the
-----------------------------------
option, if it so elects, to directly pay all costs associated with the
construction of the improvements to the Leased Premises pursuant to (S)9 hereof.
If Tenant desires to self-fund the cost of the construction of such
Improvements, it will deliver written notice of such election to Landlord within
30 days after the parties' execution of this Lease. If Tenant fails to deliver
such a written election to Landlord within the aforementioned 30-day period,
then it will be deemed to have elected not to exercise such option.
If Tenant exercises its option to self-fund the cost of constructing such
Improvements within the aforementioned 30-day period, then it will thereafter be
obligated to pay all such costs directly to the general contractor constructing
such Improvements at the same time and upon the same terms and conditions set
forth in the general contractor's contract for the construction thereof, a copy
of which will be furnished by Landlord to Tenant. If Tenant so elects to self-
fund the cost of constructing such Improvements, the following adjustments will
be made in the economics of this Lease:
(a) Relocation and Planning Expenses. Landlord will have no
--------------------------------
obligation to pay the relocation and planning expense allowances to Tenant
pursuant to (S)35 hereof, and, to the extent any portion thereof has already
been paid to Tenant by Landlord, Tenant will, coincident with its exercise of
its self-funding option, reimburse Landlord for the full amount of such previous
payments.
-16-
(b) Base Rent. The Base Rent payable by Tenant pursuant to the Base
---------
Rent Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit A will be reduced by $1.75 per rentable
square foot for each period of the lease term specified in such Base Rent
Schedule
(c) Cancellation Option. The cash payments required to be made to
-------------------
Landlord by Tenant upon its exercise of the cancellation option pursuant to
(S)34 will be reduced to $353,102 (if the exercise of such option is effective
as of the end of the fifth year of the initial Lease Term) of $353,633 (if the
cancellation is effective as of the end of the seventh year of the initial Lease
Term).
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all of the terms and conditions
of the Lease will remain in full force and effect in accordance with their
terms, notwithstanding Tenant's exercise of its self-funding option pursuant to
this (S)41.

which are hereby acknowledged, Lender and Tenant do hereby mutually covenant and
agree as follows:
3. SUBORDINATION. Tenant hereby subordinates the Lease, all extensions,
-------------
modifications and renewals thereof, and all Tenant's rights and interests
thereunder, to the Security Documents and the Lien thereof, and to all
modifications, renewals and extensions of same, to the extent of all advances
heretofore or hereafter made to Landlord secured by the Security Documents.
4. NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT. Provided Tenant complies with the
------------------------------
Agreement and is not in default (beyond any period of time given Tenant to cure)

(whether the deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) by Lender or other third
party will disturb Tenant's possession. Any purchaser at foreclosure and their
successors and Lender will recognize the Lease in it's entirety, including,
without limitation, all of Tenant's purchase and renewal options hereunder.
Notwithstanding any such foreclosure or other acquisition of the Demised
Premises (whether by deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) by Lender or any
third party, Tenant shall attorn to Lender or such third party, and the Lease

right under the Lease to make deductions from or reduction in rental payments,
until Tenant shall have given written notice of such default to Lender as
hereinafter provided. Tenant will allow Lender thirty (30) days from its
receipt of said notice within which Lender shall have the right, but shall not
be obligated, to remedy such act, omission or other default and Tenant will
accept such performance by Lender; provided, however, if the act, omission or

to materially alter a front, rear, or side elevation of any existing building or
structure in the city shall be accompanied by three sets of detailed plans, and
all detailed structural drawings thereof that the Building and Zoning
Administrator may require. If the plans submitted do not furnish sufficient
information to adequately show the scope of the planned construction for which

two sets of detailed plans, one set of detailed specifications for each proposed
work. Both the plans and specifications, when required by law, shall be prepared
by a registered architect or a registered engineer, qualified under the laws of
the state to prepare the plans and specifications, and no permit therefore shall
be issued until the plans, and specifications when required, have been approved
by the Building and Zoning Administrator. All plans and specifications for
buildings or structures to be erected in the city that are governed by state
laws, must have the standard approval of the proper state authority before
application is made for a permit.
(B) All plans shall be drawn at a scale acceptable to the building and
Zoning Administrator and shall show the following.
(1) A plot plan which shall show the actual shape and dimensions
of the lot or lots to be built on, the exact size and location on the lot or
lots of proposed and existing buildings and accessory buildings, and the
existing and intended use of each building or part of a building existing or
proposed, driveway, provisions for off-street parking, and other information
with regard to the lot as may be necessary to determine compliance with these
regulations.
(2) The location and layout of the proposed sewage disposal
system.
(3) When applicable the required loading and unloading spaces,
maneuvering space, and openings for ingress and egress.
(4) When applicable, grading and drainage plans showing any and

premises, plus provisions for any surface water on premises, plus provisions for
any surface water which would naturally flow over or through the area. These
plans shall be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer.

to the character of the work, structural details, strength of material, and
workmanship.
(6) Other information may be lawfully required by the Building
and Zoning Administrator including existing or proposed building or alteration;
existing or proposed uses of the building and land; the number of families,
housekeeping units, or rental units the building is designed to accommodate;
conditions existing on the lot; and other matters necessary to determine
conformance with, and provide for the enforcement of this chapter.

given to the persons affected. If the work described in any building permit has
not been substantially completed within one year of the date of issuance
thereof, the permit shall expire and be cancelled by the Building Administrator
and written notice thereof shall be given to the person affected, together with
notice that further work as described in the cancelled permit shall not proceed
unless and until a new building permit has been obtained. As used herein,
"SUBSTANTIALLY" shall be interpreted to be the completion of at least 51% of the

a certificate of occupancy stating that the land, building, or part thereof, and
the proposed use thereof are found to be in conformity with the provisions of
this chapter. Within three days after notification that a building, premises, or
part thereof, is ready for occupancy or use, it shall be the duty of the
Building Administrator to make a final inspection thereof. No non-conforming
structure or use shall be maintained, renewed, changed, or extended until a
certificate of occupancy has been issued by the Building Administrator.
(B) The certificate of occupancy shall state specifically wherein the
non-conforming use differs from the provisions of this chapter, provided that
upon enactment or amendment of this chapter, owners or occupants of
non-conforming uses or structures shall have six months to apply for
certificates of occupancy. Failure to make such an application within six months
shall be presumptive evidence that the property was in conforming use at the
time of enactment or amendment of this chapter. Failure to obtain a certificate
of occupancy will place upon the owner and lessee the entire burden of proof
that the use of the land or building existed on the effective date of this
chapter.

the fees imposed by this subchapter upon any given project substantially exceed
the clearly demonstrated impact upon public facilities, including fire, public
works, and police facilities.

to it to be excessive, the City Commission, on application, shall conduct a
hearing to consider alleged overpayment. It shall be the duty of the project
owner to demonstrate to the City Commission by clear and convincing evidence
that applicable impact fees are substantially excessive as applied to the
project. The Commission may adjust the fees based on the evidence presented.

so charged are less than the impact fees initially collected and maintained,
then at that time the excess shall be refunded to the applicant. In the event
that no subsequent building permit shall be issued and impact fees due within
six years from the date of payment of impact fees under a building permit for
which construction did not take place, any impact fees so collected shall be
returned to the then- present owner of the development together with interest at
