Landlord shall be deemed to have tendered possession of the relevant portion of the Premises to Tenant upon the giving of notice by Landlord to Tenant stating that such portion of the Premises is vacant, in the condition required by this Amended and Restated Lease and available for construction of Tenant’s improvement and alterations. No failure to tender possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before the Commencement Date shall affect any other obligations of Tenant hereunder. There shall be no postponement of the Commencement Date (or the Rent Commencement Date) for any delay in the tender of possession to Tenant which results from any Tenant Delay. Once the Commencement Date is determined, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an agreement stating the Commencement Date, Rent Commencement Date and Expiration Date, but the failure to do so will not affect the determination of such dates.

Section 2.3 Payment of Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, without notice or demand, and without any set-off, counterclaim, abatement or deduction whatsoever, except as may be expressly set forth in this Amended and Restated Lease, in lawful money of the United States by check or wire transfer of funds, (i) Fixed Rent in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each month during the Term, commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, and (ii) Additional Rent, at the times and in the manner set forth in this Amended and Restated Lease.

If the Rent Commencement Date is not the first day of a month, then on the Rent Commencement Date Tenant shall pay Fixed Rent for the period from the Rent Commencement Date through the last day of such month, and the Advance Rent shall be credited towards Fixed Rent for the next succeeding calendar month.

Section 2.5 Unused Landlord Contribution. Tenant shall have the right to request that up to $259,700 of the Landlord Contribution, to the extent not expended for the completion of the Initial Installations, be credited towards amounts owed with respect to Fixed Rent; provided that: (i) such request shall not be made prior to the later of April 1, 2012 or the date upon which the Commencement Date for Suite 2050 occurs and shall be made within two months of such later date, (ii) such credit shall not commence until all of the Initial Installations contemplated for the Premises by the Final Plans have been completed and final payments made in accordance with Section 3 of the Work Letter and (iii) such amounts shall be applied in consecutive months until such time as the full amount of Landlord Contribution available for credit towards Fixed Rent has been so applied.

(c) Governmental Approvals. Tenant, at its expense, shall, as and when required, promptly obtain certificates of partial and final approval of such Alterations required by any Governmental Authority and shall furnish Landlord with copies thereof, together with “as-built” Plans for such Alterations prepared on an AutoCAD Computer Assisted Drafting and Design System (or such other system or medium as Landlord may accept), using naming conventions issued by the American Institute of Architects in June, 1990 (or such other naming conventions as Landlord may accept) and computer media of such record drawings and specifications translated in DFX format or another format acceptable to Landlord.

Section 5.2 Manner and Quality of Alterations. All Alterations shall be performed (a) in a good and workmanlike manner and free from defects, (b) substantially in accordance with the Plans, and by contractors approved by Landlord, (c) in compliance with all Requirements, the terms of this Amended and Restated Lease and all construction procedures and regulations then prescribed by Landlord, and (d) at Tenant’s expense.

Upon completion of any Alterations hereunder, Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of all construction contracts, proof of payment for all labor and materials, and final unconditional waivers of lien from all contractors, subcontractors, materialmen, suppliers and others having lien rights with respect to such Alterations, in the form prescribed by Washington law.

Section 5.3 Removal of Tenant’s Property. Tenant’s Property shall remain the property of Tenant and Tenant may remove the same at any time on or before the Expiration Date.

Section 5.5 Labor Relations. Tenant shall not employ, or permit the employment of, any contractor, mechanic or laborer, or permit any materials to be delivered to or used in the Building, if, in Landlord’s sole judgment, such employment, delivery or use will interfere or cause any conflict with other contractors, mechanics or laborers engaged in the construction, maintenance or operation of the Building by Landlord, Tenant or others. If such interference or conflict occurs, upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall cause all contractors, mechanics or laborers causing such interference or conflict to leave the Building immediately.

Section 5.6 Tenant’s Costs.

Section 5.8 Legal Compliance. The approval of Plans, or consent by Landlord to the making of any Alterations, does not constitute Landlord’s representation that such Plans or Alterations comply with any Requirements. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or any other party in connection with Landlord’s approval of any Plans, or Landlord’s consent to Tenant’s performing any Alterations. If any Alterations made by or on behalf of Tenant require Landlord to make any alterations or improvements to any part of the Building in order to comply with any Requirements, Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with such alterations or improvements.

Landlord reserves the right to make all changes, alterations, additions, improvements, repairs or replacements to the Building and Building Systems, including changing the arrangement or location of entrances or passageways, doors and doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or other Common Areas (collectively, “Work of Improvement” ), as Landlord deems necessary or desirable, and to take all materials into the Premises required for the performance of such Work of Improvement, provided that (a) the level of any Building service shall not decrease in any material respect from the level required of Landlord in this Amended and Restated Lease as a result thereof (other than temporary changes in the level of such services during the performance of any such Work of Improvement), and (b) Tenant is not deprived of access to the Premises. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises during the performance of such Work of Improvement. Provided that Landlord complies with the provisions of this Lease, there shall be no Rent abatement or allowance to Tenant for a diminution of rental value, no actual or constructive eviction of Tenant, in whole or in part, no relief from any of Tenant’s other obligations under this Amended and Restated Lease, and no liability on the part of Landlord by reason of inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business arising from Landlord, Tenant or others performing, or failing to perform, any Work of Improvement except as hereinafter provided. If (i) Landlord undertakes any such Work of Improvement in the Premises pursuant to this Section 6.3 which is not required by any Governmental Authority or required as a result of any act or omission of Tenant, (ii) as a direct result of such renovation or other work, the Premises or any substantial part thereof are

 

10


rendered unusable for seven (7) consecutive Business Days, and (iii) Tenant actually ceases to conduct its business therein (or in the unusable portion thereof), then the Fixed Rent which the Tenant is obligated to pay hereunder shall abate proportionately (based on the number of rentable square feet rendered unusable) for the period beginning on the first (1st) Business Day that the Premises are unusable and such abatement shall continue until use of such portion of the Premises is restored to Tenant.

ARTICLE 7

INCREASES IN TAXES AND OPERATING EXPENSES

Section 7.1 Definitions. For the purposes of this Article 7, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

(a) “Assessed Valuation” shall mean the amount for which the Real Property is assessed by the County Assessor of King County, Washington for the purpose of imposition of Taxes.

(b) “Base Operating Expenses” shall mean the Operating Expenses for the Base Year.

(c) “Base Taxes” shall mean the Taxes payable for the Base Year.

(d) “Comparison Year” shall mean each calendar year commencing subsequent to the Base Year.

(e) “Operating Expenses” shall mean the aggregate of all costs and expenses paid or incurred by or on behalf of Landlord in connection with the ownership, operation, repair and maintenance of the Real Property, as such costs and expenses are allocated by Landlord in its reasonable judgment between the Building, which costs and expenses may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the rental value of Landlord’s Building office, (ii) the cost of insurance premiums and related charges, including premiums for coverage with respect to terrorist acts and occurrences, and (iii) capital improvements incurred after the Base Year only if such capital improvement either (A) is reasonably intended to result in a reduction in Operating Expenses (as for example, a labor-saving improvement), provided the amount included in Operating Expenses in any Comparison Year shall not exceed an amount equal to the savings reasonably anticipated to result from the installation and operation of such improvement, and/or (B) is made during any Comparison Year in compliance with Requirements which became effective (whether through adoption, promulgation, application, interpretation by the applicable Governmental Authority or otherwise) after the date of this Amended and Restated Lease. Such capital improvements shall be amortized (with interest at the Base Rate) on a straight-line basis over such period as Landlord shall reasonably determine, and the amount included in Operating Expenses in any Comparison Year shall be equal to the annual amortized amount. Operating Expenses shall not include any Excluded Expenses. If during all or part of the Base Year or any Comparison Year, Landlord shall not furnish any particular item(s) of work or service (which would otherwise constitute an Operating Expense) to any leasable portions of the Building for any reason and the cost of such item(s) of work or service vary with the Building’s occupancy level, then, for purposes of computing Operating Expenses for such period, the amount included in Operating Expenses for such period shall be increased by an amount equal to the costs and expenses that Landlord reasonably determines would have been incurred by Landlord during such period if Landlord had furnished such item(s) of work or

 

11


service to such portion of the Building; provided, however, if the result of such computation would be to have Landlord’s recoveries for such items exceed the actual cost of such items, then the foregoing amount shall be reduced by such excess. If Landlord eliminates from Operating Expenses for any Comparison Year a recurring category of expenses previously included in Operating Expenses for the Base Year, Landlord may subtract such category from Operating Expenses for the Base Year commencing with such Comparison Year, and if Landlord introduces to Operating Expenses for any Comparison Year a new recurring category of expenses previously excluded from the Operating Expenses for the Base Year, Landlord shall add an appropriate entry as a category of expense to Operating Expenses for the Base Year commencing with such Comparison Year. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Landlord eliminates from Operating Expenses for any Comparison Year any particular type of insurance included in Operating Expenses for the Base Year, or if Landlord reduces the level of insurance coverage during any Comparison Year from that carried during the Base Year, then Landlord may adjust the amount of any insurance premium included in Operating Expenses for the Base Year to equal that amount which Landlord reasonably estimates it would have incurred had Landlord maintained similar types and levels of insurance during the Base Year as maintained by Landlord during such Comparison Year. In determining the amount of Operating Expenses for the Base Year or any Comparison Year, if less than 95% of the Building rentable area is occupied by tenants at any time during any such Base Year or Comparison Year, Operating Expenses which vary with the Building’s occupancy level shall be determined for such Base Year or Comparison Year to be an amount equal to the like expenses which would normally be expected to be incurred had such occupancy been 95% throughout the Base Year or such Comparison Year; provided, however, if the result of such computation would be to have Landlord’s recoveries for such items exceed the actual cost of such items, then the foregoing amount shall be reduced by such excess. Without limiting the foregoing, in calculating the Base Operating Expenses, Landlord shall include the cost of premiums for insurance coverages with respect to terrorist acts and occurrences (collectively, “Terrorist Coverage Insurance Premiums”) payable with respect to the Base Year; provided, however, thereafter Landlord may elect to reduce the Base Operating Expenses by an amount equal to the Terrorism Risk Insurance Premium Reduction (as hereinafter defined); provided, further, if the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 (the “Terrorism Act”) expires or is repealed, or the benefits intended to be provided by the Terrorism Act are no longer available to Landlord in any material respect, then commencing with the first Comparison Year in which the Terrorism Coverage Insurance Premiums are affected by such expiration, repeal or material unavailability (the “Expiration Year”), Landlord shall readjust the calculation of Base Operating Expenses to include the lesser of (i) Terrorism Coverage Insurance Premiums payable with respect to the Base Year, or (ii) the Terrorism Coverage Insurance Premiums payable with respect to the Expiration Year, without regard to the Terrorism Risk Insurance Premium Reduction. The “Terrorism Risk Insurance Premium Reduction” shall mean the amount by which the Terrorism Coverage Insurance Premiums for the Base Year exceed the Terrorism Coverage Insurance Premiums for the next succeeding Comparison Year with respect to which the benefits intended to be provided by the Terrorism Act are available to Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Landlord recover from all tenants of the Building in any Comparison Year more than one hundred percent (100%) of the actual Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord for such Comparison Year.

(f) “Statement” shall mean a statement containing a comparison of (i) Base Taxes and the Taxes for any Comparison Year, or (ii) Base Operating Expenses and the Operating Expenses for any Comparison Year.

 

12


(g) “Taxes” shall mean (i) all real estate taxes, assessments, sewer and water rents, rates and charges and other governmental levies, impositions or charges, whether general, special, ordinary, extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen, which may be assessed, levied or imposed upon all or any part of the Real Property, and (ii) all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and experts’ and other witnesses’ fees) incurred in contesting any of the foregoing or the Assessed Valuation of the Real Property (but such expenses will not be included in Base Taxes if incurred during the Base Year). Taxes shall not include (x) interest or penalties incurred by Landlord as a result of Landlord’s late payment of Taxes, or (y) franchise, transfer, gift, inheritance, estate or net income taxes imposed upon Landlord. If Landlord elects to pay any assessment in annual installments, then (i) such assessment shall be deemed to have been so divided and to be payable in the maximum number of installments permitted by law, and (ii) there shall be deemed included in Taxes for each Comparison Year the installments of such assessment becoming payable during such Comparison Year, together with interest payable during such Comparison Year on such installments and on all installments thereafter becoming due as provided by law, all as if such assessment had been so divided. If at any time the methods of taxation prevailing on the Effective Date shall be altered so that in lieu of or as an addition to the whole or any part of Taxes, there shall be assessed, levied or imposed (1) a tax, assessment, levy, imposition or charge based on the income or rents received from the Real Property whether or not wholly or partially as a capital levy or otherwise, (2) a tax, assessment, levy, imposition or charge measured by or based in whole or in part upon all or any part of the Real Property and imposed upon Landlord, (3) a license fee measured by the rents, or (4) any other tax, assessment, levy, imposition, charge or license fee however described or imposed, including business improvement district impositions, then all such taxes, assessments, levies, impositions, charges or license fees or the part thereof so measured or based shall be deemed to be Taxes; provided, that Washington State business and occupation tax assessed against Landlord on rental receipts pursuant to this Amended and Restated Lease shall not be included as “Taxes” for purposes of this Section 7.1.

Section 7.2 Tenant’s Tax Payment. (a)  If the Taxes payable for any Comparison Year exceed the Base Taxes, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such excess ( “Tenant’s Tax Payment” ). For each Comparison Year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement setting forth Landlord’s reasonable estimate of Tenant’s Tax Payment for such Comparison Year (the “Tax Estimate” ). Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the 1st day of each month during such Comparison Year an amount equal to 1/12 of the Tax Estimate for such Comparison Year. If Landlord furnishes a Tax Estimate for a Comparison Year subsequent to the commencement thereof, then (i) until the 1 st day of the month following the month in which the Tax Estimate is furnished to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the 1 st day of each month an amount equal to the monthly sum payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Section 7.2 during the last month of the preceding Comparison Year, (ii) promptly after the Tax Estimate is furnished to Tenant or together therewith, Landlord shall give notice to Tenant stating whether the installments of Tenant’s Tax Estimate previously made for such Comparison Year were greater or less than the installments of Tenant’s Tax Estimate to be made for such Comparison Year in accordance with the Tax Estimate, and (x) if there shall be a deficiency, Tenant shall pay the amount thereof within 20 Business Days after demand therefor, or (y) if there shall have been an overpayment, Landlord shall credit the amount thereof against subsequent payments of Rent due hereunder, and (iii) on the 1 st day of the month following the month in which the Tax Estimate is furnished to Tenant, and on the 1 st day of each month thereafter throughout the remainder of such Comparison Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to 1/12 of the Tax Estimate. Landlord shall have the right, upon not less than 30

 

13


days prior written notice to Tenant, to reasonably adjust the Tax Estimate from time to time during any Comparison Year.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after Landlord has determined the Taxes for a Comparison Year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a Statement for such Comparison Year. If the Statement shall show that the sums paid by Tenant under Section 7.2(a) exceeded the actual amount of Tenant’s Tax Payment for such Comparison Year, Landlord shall credit the amount of such excess against subsequent payments of Rent due hereunder (and/or shall refund such excess to Tenant by check to the extent the excess is greater than the rental due for the remaining term of the Amended and Restated Lease or if the Amended and Restated Lease has expired). If the Statement for such Comparison Year shall show that the sums so paid by Tenant were less than Tenant’s Tax Payment for such Comparison Year, Tenant shall pay the amount of such deficiency within 20 Business Days after delivery of the Statement of Tenant.

(c) Only Landlord may institute proceedings to reduce the Assessed Valuation of the Real Property and the filings of any such proceeding by Tenant without Landlord’s consent shall constitute an Event of Default. If the Taxes payable for the Base Year are reduced, the Base Taxes shall be correspondingly revised, the Additional Rent previously paid or payable on account of Tenant’s Tax Payment hereunder for all Comparison Years shall be recomputed on the basis of such reduction, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord within 20 Business Days after being billed therefor, any deficiency between the amount of such Additional Rent previously computed and paid by Tenant to Landlord, and the amount due as a result of such recomputations. If Landlord receives a refund of Taxes for any Comparison Year, Landlord shall credit against subsequent payments of Rent due hereunder, an amount equal to Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the refund, net of any expenses incurred by Landlord in achieving such refund, which amount shall not exceed Tenant’s Tax Payment paid for such Comparison Year. Landlord shall not be obligated to file any application or institute any proceeding seeking a reduction in Taxes or the Assessed Valuation. The benefit of any exemption or abatement relating to all or any part of the Real Property shall accrue solely to the benefit of Landlord and Taxes shall be computed without taking into account any such exemption or abatement.

(d) Tenant shall be responsible for any applicable occupancy or rent tax now in effect or hereafter enacted and, if such tax is payable by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly pay such amounts to Landlord, upon Landlord’s demand.

(e) Tenant shall be obligated to make Tenant’s Tax Payment regardless of whether Tenant may be exempt from the payment of any Taxes as the result of any reduction, abatement or exemption from Taxes granted or agreed to by any Governmental Authority, or by reason of Tenant’s diplomatic or other tax-exempt status.

Section 7.3 Tenant’s Operating Payment. (a)  If the Operating Expenses payable for any Comparison Year exceed the Base Operating Expenses, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such excess ( “Tenant’s Operating Payment” ). For each Comparison Year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement setting forth Landlord’s reasonable estimate of Tenant’s Operating Payment for such Comparison Year (the “Expense Estimate” ). Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the 1 st day of each month during such Comparison Year an amount equal to 1/12 of the Expense Estimate. If Landlord furnishes an Expense Estimate for a Comparison Year subsequent to the commencement thereof, then (i) until the 1 st day of the month following the month in which the Expense Estimate is furnished to Tenant,

 

14


Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the 1 st day of each month an amount equal to the monthly sum payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Section 7.3 during the last month of the preceding Comparison Year, (ii) promptly after the Expense Estimate is furnished to Tenant or together therewith, Landlord shall give notice to Tenant stating whether the installments of Tenant’s Operating Payment previously made for such Comparison Year were greater or less than the installments of Tenant’s Operating Payment to be made for such Comparison Year in accordance with the Expense Estimate, and (x) if there shall be a deficiency, Tenant shall pay the amount thereof within 20 Business Days after demand therefor, or (y) if there shall have been an overpayment, Landlord shall credit the amount thereof against subsequent payments of Rent due hereunder, and (iii) on the 1 st day of the month following the month in which the Expense Estimate is furnished to Tenant, and on the 1 st day of each month thereafter throughout the remainder of such Comparison Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to 1/12 of the Expense Estimate. Landlord shall have the right, upon not less than 30 days prior written notice to Tenant, to reasonably adjust the Expense Estimate from time to time during any Comparison Year.

(b) On or before May 1 st of each Comparison Year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a Statement for the immediately preceding Comparison Year. If the Statement shows that the sums paid by Tenant under Section 7.3(a) exceeded the actual amount of Tenant’s Operating Payment for such Comparison Year, Landlord shall credit the amount of such excess against subsequent payments of Rent due hereunder (and/or shall refund such excess to Tenant by check to the extent the excess is greater than the rental due for the remaining term of the Amended and Restated Lease or if the Amended and Restated Lease has expired). If the Statement shows that the sums so paid by Tenant were less than Tenant’s Operating Payment for such Comparison Year, Tenant shall pay the amount of such deficiency within 20 Business Days after delivery of the Statement to Tenant.

Section 7.4 Non-Waiver; Disputes. (a)  Landlord’s failure to render any Statement on a timely basis with respect to any Comparison Year shall not prejudice Landlord’s right to thereafter render a Statement with respect to such Comparison Year or any subsequent Comparison Year, nor shall the rendering of a Statement prejudice Landlord’s right to thereafter render a corrected Statement for that Comparison Year.

(b) Each Statement sent to Tenant shall be conclusively binding upon Tenant unless Tenant (i) pays to Landlord when due the amount set forth in such Statement, without prejudice to Tenant’s right to dispute such Statement, and (ii) within 120 days after such Statement is sent, sends a notice to Landlord objecting to such Statement and specifying the reasons therefor, in which case Tenant and its accountants shall have the right to review Landlord’s books and records applicable to such Statement. With respect to each Statement, Landlord will maintain its applicable books and records for a period of at least three (3) years after such Statement is delivered to Tenant and thereafter during the pendency of any review thereof by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease. Tenant agrees that Tenant will not employ, in connection with any dispute under this Amended and Restated Lease, any person or entity who is to be compensated, in whole or in part, on a contingency fee basis. If the parties are unable to resolve any dispute as to the correctness of such Statement within 30 days following such notice of objection, either party may refer the issues raised to one of the nationally recognized public accounting firms selected by Landlord and reasonably acceptable to Tenant, and the decision of such accountants shall be conclusively binding upon Landlord and Tenant. In connection therewith, Tenant and such accountants shall execute and deliver to Landlord a confidentiality agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, whereby such parties agree not to disclose to any third party any of the information

 

15


obtained in connection with such review. Tenant shall pay the fees and expenses relating to such procedure, unless such accountants determine that Landlord overstated Operating Expenses by more than 3% for such Comparison Year, in which case Landlord shall pay such fees and expenses. Except as provided in this Section 7.4, Tenant shall have no right whatsoever to dispute, by judicial proceeding or otherwise, the accuracy of any Statement.

(c) In addition, if the accounting firm selected by Landlord and Tenant as set forth above concludes that Landlord has overstated any item or items of Operating Expenses and/or Taxes for such year in excess of three percent (3%), Tenant may, within one hundred-eighty (180) days following receipt of such firm’s written report, review Landlord’s books and records for the two (2) prior years whether or not theretofore reviewed, solely to determine whether any such item or items have also been overstated in any of such two (2) prior years. All such review activities shall also be subject to the confidentiality agreement described above.

Section 7.5 Proration. If the Rent Commencement Date is not January 1, and provided that the Rent Commencement Date does not occur in the Base Year, Tenant’s Tax Payment and Tenant’s Operating Payment for the Comparison Year in which the Rent Commencement Date occurs shall be apportioned on the basis of the number of days in the year from the Rent Commencement Date to the following December 31. If the Expiration Date occurs on a date other than December 31 st , Tenant’s Tax Payment and Tenant’s Operating Payment for the Comparison Year in which such Expiration Date occurs shall be apportioned on the basis of the number of days in the period from January 1 st to the Expiration Date. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Amended and Restated Lease, any Additional Rent under this Article 7 shall be adjusted or paid within 30 days after submission of the Statement for the last Comparison Year. Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to equitably allocate some or all of the Taxes and/or Operating Expenses for the Real Property among different portions or occupants of the Real Property (the “Cost Pools”), in Landlord’s reasonable discretion. Such Cost Pools may include, but shall not be limited to, the office space tenants of the Real Property and the retail space tenants of the Real Property. The Taxes and/or Operating Expenses allocable to each such Cost Pool shall be allocated to such Cost Pool and charged to the tenants within such Cost Pool in an equitable manner.

Section 7.6 No Reduction in Rent. In no event shall any decrease in Operating Expenses or Taxes in any Comparison Year below the Base Operating Expenses or Base Taxes, as the case may be, result in a reduction in the Fixed Rent or any component of Additional Rent payable hereunder.

ARTICLE 8

Tenant, at its expense, shall comply with all Requirements applicable to the Premises and/or Tenant’s use or occupancy thereof; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be obligated to comply with any Requirements requiring any structural alterations to the Building unless the application of such Requirements arises from (i) the specific manner and/or nature of Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, as distinct from general office use, (ii) Alterations made by Tenant, or (iii) a breach by Tenant of any provisions of this Amended and Restated Lease. Any repairs or alterations required for compliance with applicable Requirements shall be made at Tenant’s expense (1) by Tenant in

 

16

(b) Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not cause or permit (i) any Hazardous Materials to be brought into the Building, (ii) the storage or use of Hazardous Materials in or about the Building or Premises (subject to the second sentence of this Section 8.1(b)), or (iii) the escape, disposal or release of any Hazardous Materials within or in the vicinity of the Building. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent Tenant’s use of any Hazardous Materials customarily used in the ordinary course of office work, provided such use is in accordance with all Requirements. Tenant shall be responsible, at its expense, for all matters directly or indirectly based on, or arising or resulting from the presence of Hazardous Materials in the Building which is caused or permitted by a Tenant Party.

Section 8.2 Fire and Life Safety. Landlord shall maintain in good order and repair the sprinkler, fire-alarm and life-safety system in the Premises. If the Fire Insurance Rating Organization or any Governmental Authority or any of Landlord’s insurers requires or recommends any modifications and/or alterations be made or any additional equipment be supplied in connection with the sprinkler system or fire alarm and life-safety system serving the Building by reason of Tenant’s business, any Alterations performed by Tenant or the location of the partitions, Tenant’s Property, or other contents of the Premises, Landlord shall make such modifications and/or Alterations, and supply such additional equipment, at Tenant’s expense.

ARTICLE 9

SUBORDINATION

Section 9.1 Subordination and Attornment. (a)  This Amended and Restated Lease is subject and subordinate to all Mortgages and Superior Leases, and, at the request of

 

17


any Mortgagee or Lessor, Tenant shall attorn to such Mortgagee or Lessor, its successors in interest or any purchaser in a foreclosure sale.

(b) If a Lessor or Mortgagee or any other person or entity shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Amended and Restated Lease, whether through possession or foreclosure action or the delivery of a new lease or deed, then at the request of the successor landlord and upon such successor landlord’s written agreement to accept Tenant’s attornment and to recognize Tenant’s interest under this Amended and Restated Lease, Tenant shall be deemed to have attorned to and recognized such successor landlord as Landlord under this Amended and Restated Lease. The provisions of this Section 9.1 are self-operative and require no further instruments to give effect hereto; provided, however, that Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument that such successor landlord may reasonably request (i) evidencing such attornment, (ii) setting forth the terms and conditions of Tenant’s tenancy, and (iii) containing such other terms and conditions as may be reasonably required by such Mortgagee or Lessor, provided such terms and conditions do not increase the Rent, increase any of Tenant’s other obligations under this Amended and Restated Lease or adversely affect any of Tenant’s rights under this Amended and Restated Lease. Upon such attornment this Amended and Restated Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between such successor landlord and Tenant upon all of the terms, conditions and covenants set forth in this Amended and Restated Lease except that such successor landlord shall not be

(i) liable for any act or omission of Landlord (except to the extent such act or omission continues beyond the date when such successor landlord succeeds to Landlord’s interest and Tenant gives notice of such act or omission);

(ii) bound by any prepayment of more than one month’s Rent to any prior landlord; or

(iii) liable for the repayment of any security deposit or surrender of any letter of credit, unless and until such security deposit actually is paid or such letter of credit is actually delivered to such successor landlord.

(c) Tenant shall from time to time within 10 days of request from Landlord execute and deliver any documents or instruments that may be reasonably required by any Mortgagee or Lessor to confirm any subordination; provided, however, that any obligation of Tenant to enter into any written subordination agreement in favor of a Mortgagee or Lessor with respect to this Amended and Restated Lease shall be subject to the written agreement of the Mortgagee or Lessor to not disturb Tenant’s right of possession of the Premises and other rights hereunder upon a foreclosure of the subject Mortgage or upon the taking of any action under a Superior Lease such that the Lessor shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Amended and Restated Lease.

Section 9.2 Mortgage or Superior Lease Defaults. Any Mortgagee may elect that this Amended and Restated Lease shall have priority over the Mortgage and, upon notification to Tenant by such Mortgagee, this Amended and Restated Lease shall be deemed to have priority over such Mortgage, regardless of the date of this Amended and Restated Lease.

Section 9.3 Tenant’s Termination Right. As long as any Superior Lease or Mortgage exists, Tenant shall not seek to terminate this Amended and Restated Lease by reason of any act or omission of Landlord until (a) Tenant shall have given notice of such act or omission to all Lessors and/or Mortgagees, and (b) a reasonable period of time shall have

 

18


elapsed following the giving of notice of such default and the expiration of any applicable notice or grace periods (unless such act or omission is not capable of being remedied within a reasonable period of time), but in all events not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days, during which period such Lessors and/or Mortgagees shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remedy such act or omission and thereafter diligently proceed to so remedy such act or omission. If any Lessor or Mortgagee elects to remedy such act or omission of Landlord, Tenant shall not seek to terminate this Amended and Restated Lease so long as such Lessor or Mortgagee is proceeding with reasonable diligence to effect such remedy.

Section 9.4 Provisions. The provisions of this Article 9 shall (a) inure to the benefit of Landlord, any future owner of the Building or the Real Property, Lessor or Mortgagee and any sublessor thereof and (b) apply notwithstanding that, as a matter of law, this Amended and Restated Lease may terminate upon the termination of any such Superior Lease or Mortgage.

Section 9.5 Future Condominium Declaration. This Amended and Restated Lease and Tenant’s rights hereunder are and will be subject and subordinate to any condominium declaration, by-laws and other instruments (collectively, the “Declaration” ) which may be recorded in order to permit a condominium form of ownership of the Building pursuant to the Washington Condominium Act, RCW 64.34.005-950, or any successor Requirement, provided that the Declaration does not increase the Rent, increase any of Tenant’s other obligations under this Amended and Restated Lease or adversely affect any of Tenant’s rights under this Amended and Restated Lease. At Landlord’s request, and subject to the foregoing proviso, Tenant will execute and deliver to Landlord an amendment of this Amended and Restated Lease confirming such subordination and modifying this Amended and Restated Lease to conform to such condominium regime.

ARTICLE 10

SERVICES

Section 10.1 Electricity. Subject to any Requirements or any public utility rules or regulations governing energy consumption, Landlord shall make or cause to be made, customary arrangements with utility companies and/or public service companies to furnish electric current to the Premises for Tenant’s use in accordance with the Design Standards. If Landlord reasonably determines by the use of an electrical consumption survey or by other reasonable means that Tenant is using electric current (including overhead fluorescent fixtures) in excess of .60 kilowatt hours per square foot of usable area in the Premises per month, as determined on an annualized basis ( “Excess Electrical Usage” ), then Landlord shall have the right to charge Tenant an amount equal to Landlord’s reasonable estimate of Tenant’s Excess Electrical Usage, and shall have the further right to install an electric current meter, sub-meter or check meter in the Premises (a “Meter” ) to measure the amount of electric current consumed in the Premises. The cost of such Meter, special conduits, wiring and panels needed in connection therewith and the installation, maintenance and repair thereof shall be paid by Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, from time to time, but no more frequently than monthly, for its Excess Electrical Usage at the Premises, plus Landlord’s charge equal to 15% of Tenant’s Excess Electrical Usage for Landlord’s costs of maintaining, repairing and reading such Meter. The rate to be paid by Tenant for submetered electricity shall include any taxes or other charges in connection therewith.

Section 10.2 Excess Electricity. Tenant shall at all times comply with the rules and regulations of the utility company supplying electricity to the Building. Tenant shall not use any

 

19


electrical equipment which, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, would exceed the capacity of the electrical equipment serving the Premises. If Landlord determines that Tenant’s electrical requirements necessitate installation of any additional risers, feeders or other electrical distribution equipment (collectively, “Electrical Equipment” ), or if Tenant provides Landlord with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord of Tenant’s need for excess electricity and requests that additional Electrical Equipment be installed, Landlord shall, at Tenant’s expense, install such additional Electrical Equipment, provided that Landlord, in its sole judgment, determines that (a) such installation is practicable and necessary, (b) such additional Electrical Equipment is permissible under applicable Requirements, and (c) the installation of such Electrical Equipment will not cause permanent damage to the Building or the Premises, cause or create a hazardous condition, entail excessive or unreasonable alterations, interfere with or limit electrical usage by other tenants or occupants of the Building or exceed the limits of the switchgear or other facilities serving the Building, or require power in excess of that available from the utility company serving the Building.

Section 10.3 Elevators. Landlord shall provide passenger elevator service to the Premises 24 hours per day, 7 days per week; provided, however, Landlord may limit passenger elevator service during times other than Ordinary Business Hours. Landlord shall provide at least one freight elevator serving the Premises, available upon Tenant’s prior request, on a non-exclusive “first come, first serve” basis with other Building tenants, on all Business Days from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., excluding Tuesdays from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm, which hours of operation are subject to change.

Section 10.4 Heating. Ventilation and Air Conditioning. Landlord shall furnish to the Premises heating, ventilation and air-conditioning ( “HVAC” ) in accordance with the Design Standards set forth in Exhibit D during Ordinary Business Hours. Landlord shall have access to all air-cooling, fan, ventilating and machine rooms and electrical closets and all other mechanical installations of Landlord (collectively, “Mechanical Installations” ), and Tenant shall not construct partitions or other obstructions which may interfere with Landlord’s access thereto or the moving of Landlord’s equipment to and from the Mechanical Installations. No Tenant Party shall at any time enter the Mechanical Installations or tamper with, adjust, or otherwise affect such Mechanical Installations. Landlord shall not be responsible if the HVAC System fails to provide cooled or heated air, as the case may be, to the Premises in accordance with the Design Standards by reason of (i) any equipment installed by, for or on behalf of Tenant, which has an electrical load in excess of the average electrical load and human occupancy factors for the HVAC System as designed, or (ii) any rearrangement of partitioning or other Alterations made or performed by, for or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant shall install, if missing, blinds or shades on all windows, which blinds and shades shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, and shall keep operable windows in the Premises closed, and lower the blinds when necessary because of the sun’s position, whenever the HVAC System is in operation or as and when required by any Requirement. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and shall abide by the rules and regulations which Landlord may reasonably prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the HVAC System. Tenant acknowledges that the server room in the Premises currently has three heat pumps installed, being two 4-ton units, and one 2.5-ton unit (the “Existing Heat Pumps” ). The 2.5-ton unit is currently connected and operational. Tenant shall determine whether it is satisfied with the condition of the Existing Heat Pumps and Landlord shall not have any responsibility or liability for the condition, operation, maintenance, repair or replacement of the Existing Heat Pumps. Tenant may operate the Existing Heat Pumps. Tenant shall be responsible for, and pay directly for, all necessary maintenance and repairs to the Existing Heat Pumps. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord monthly for the cost of all utility services used to operate the Existing Heat Pumps within 10 Business

 

20


Days after receipt of Landlord’s invoice for such amount. Landlord may measure Tenant’s usage of such utility services by either a sub-meter or by other reasonable methods such as by temporary check meters or by survey. Tenant, at its cost, may replace the Existing Heat Pumps with one or more new heat pumps, provided, however, that the capacity of such replacement heat pump(s) shall not exceed the 10.5-ton capacity cooling capacity of the Existing Heat Pumps.

Section 10.5 Overtime Freight Elevators and HVAC. The Fixed Rent does not include any charge to Tenant for the furnishing of any freight elevator service or HVAC to the Premises during any periods other than as set forth in Section 10.3 and Section 10.4 ( “Overtime Periods” ). If Tenant desires any such services during Overtime Periods, Tenant shall deliver notice to the Building office requesting such services at least 24 hours prior to the time Tenant requests such services to be provided; provided, however, that Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to arrange such service on such shorter notice as Tenant shall provide. On a single weekend during which Tenant initially moves into the Premises for the conduct of its business, upon 5 days’ prior notice from Tenant to Landlord, Landlord shall make available to Tenant freight elevator service in accordance with Landlord’s then current rules and regulations applicable thereto from 8:00 p.m. on the “move-in” Friday until 7:00 p.m. on Sunday at no cost to Tenant. If Landlord furnishes freight elevator or HVAC service during Overtime Periods, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost thereof at the then established rates for such services in the Building.

Section 10.6 Cleaning. Landlord shall cause the Premises (excluding any portions thereof used for the storage, preparation, service or consumption of food or beverages, as an exhibition area or classroom, for storage, as a shipping room, mail room or similar purposes, for private bathrooms, showers or exercise facilities, as a trading floor, or primarily for operation of computer, data processing, reproduction, duplicating or similar equipment) to be cleaned, substantially in accordance with the standards set forth in Exhibit E . Any areas of the Premises which Landlord is not required to clean hereunder or which require additional cleaning shall be cleaned, at Tenant’s expense, by Landlord’s cleaning contractor, at rates which shall be competitive with rates of other cleaning contractors providing comparable services to Comparable Buildings. Landlord’s cleaning contractor and its employees shall have access to the Premises at all times except between 8:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. on weekdays which are not Observed Holidays.

Section 10.7 Water. Landlord shall provide water in the core lavatories and existing kitchens on each floor of the Building. If Tenant requires water for any additional purposes, Tenant shall pay for the cost of bringing water to the Premises and Landlord may install a meter to measure the water. Tenant shall pay the cost of such installation, and for all maintenance, repairs and replacements thereto, and for the reasonable charges of Landlord for the water consumed.

Section 10.8 Refuse Removal. Landlord shall provide refuse removal services at the Building for ordinary office refuse and rubbish. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, Landlord’s reasonable charge for such removal to the extent that the refuse generated by Tenant exceeds the refuse customarily generated by general office tenants. Tenant shall not dispose of any refuse in the Common Areas, and if Tenant does so, Tenant shall be liable for Landlord’s reasonable charge for such removal.

 

21


Section 10.9 Directory. The lobby shall contain a directory wherein the Building’s tenants shall be listed. Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate share of such listings, based on the rentable square footage of the Premises.

Section 10.10 Telecommunications. If Tenant requests that Landlord grant access to the Building to a telecommunications service provider designated by Tenant for purposes of providing telecommunications services to Tenant, Landlord shall use its good faith efforts to respond to such request within 10 days. Tenant acknowledges that nothing set forth in this Section 10.10 shall impose any affirmative obligation on Landlord to grant such request and that Landlord, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to determine which telecommunications service providers shall have access to Building facilities.

Section 10.11 Service Interruptions. Landlord reserves the right to suspend any service when necessary, by reason of Unavoidable Delays, accidents or emergencies, or for any Work of Improvement which, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, is necessary or appropriate, until such Unavoidable Delay, accident or emergency shall cease or such Work of Improvement is completed and Landlord shall not be liable for any interruption, curtailment or failure to supply services. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises as a result of any such interruption, curtailment or failure of or defect in such service, or change in the supply, character and/or quantity of, electrical service, and to restore any such services, remedy such situation and minimize any interference with Tenant’s business. The exercise of any such right or the occurrence of any such failure by Landlord shall not constitute an actual or constructive eviction, in whole or in part, entitle Tenant to any compensation, abatement or diminution of Rent, relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under this Amended and Restated Lease, or impose any liability upon Landlord or any Indemnified Party by reason of inconvenience to Tenant, or interruption of Tenant’s business, or otherwise. Landlord shall not be liable in any way to Tenant for any failure, defect or interruption of, or change in the supply, character and/or quantity of, electric service furnished to the Premises for any reason except if attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing and any other provision of this Lease to the contrary (other than in the event of a casualty or a Taking, for which the provisions of Articles 11 and 12 of this Lease shall govern), if (i) any services to the Premises or any utilities to the Premises are interrupted due to a cause within Landlord’s reasonable control, or Tenant’s ability to use and occupy part or all of the Premises is impaired due to the foregoing activities of Landlord, its agents, employees or contractors, in the performance of any such Work of Improvement, (ii) Tenant is unable to, and does not, use such part or all of the Premises as a result of such interruption or impairment, (iii) Tenant shall have given notice respecting such interruption or impairment to Landlord, and (iv) Landlord shall have failed to cure such interruption or impairment within five (5) consecutive days after receiving such notice, then Rent hereunder as to such part or all of the Premises shall thereafter be abated beginning on the first (1 st ) day of such interruption or impairment until such time as such interruption is restored or such impairment shall cease, or Tenant begins using such part or all of the Premises again, whichever shall first occur. Such abatement of Rent shall be Tenant’s sole recourse in the event of such interruption or impairment. In the event of a casualty or a Taking, the applicable provisions of this Lease shall prevail over the provisions of this Section 10.11.

Section 10.12 Level of Service. Landlord shall manage or cause the Building to be managed in a manner substantially consistent with the manner in which Comparable Buildings are managed and Landlord will endeavor to maintain Operating Expenses at a level that is reasonably commensurate with those of Comparable Buildings, but with due consideration

being given to whether the services that Landlord provides from time to time are in excess of, or less than, those normally provided by the landlords of Comparable Buildings.

Section 10.13 No Double Charges. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall Tenant be required to pay more than once for any charge permitted to be charged to Tenant under this Lease, or for Tenant’s Proportionate Share thereof, as the case may be. In addition, in the event that more than one tenant of the Building requires additional services simultaneously with those provided to Tenant (e.g. HVAC to a shared office floor), the charges for such services shall be equitably apportioned between such tenant and Tenant.

ARTICLE 11

INSURANCE; PROPERTY LOSS OR DAMAGE

Section 11.1 Tenant’s Insurance. (a)  Tenant, at its expense, shall obtain and keep in full force and effect during the Term:

(i) a policy of commercial general liability insurance on an occurrence basis against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death and/or property damage occurring in or about the Building, under which Tenant is named as the insured and Landlord, Landlord’s Agent and any Lessors and any Mortgagees whose names have been furnished to Tenant are named as additional insureds (the “Insured Parties” ). Such insurance shall provide primary coverage without contribution from any other insurance carried by or for the benefit of the Insured Parties, and Tenant shall obtain blanket broad-form contractual liability coverage to insure its indemnity obligations set forth in Article 25. The minimum limits of liability applying exclusively to the Premises shall be a combined single limit with respect to each occurrence in an amount of not less than $5,000,000; provided, however, that Landlord shall retain the right to require Tenant to increase such coverage from time to time to that amount of insurance which in Landlord’s reasonable judgment is then being customarily required by landlords for similar office space in Comparable Buildings. The self insured retention for such policy shall not exceed $10,000. Tenant may satisfy the limits of liability required herein with a combination of umbrella and/or excess policies of insurance, provided that such policies comply with all of the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, with respect to scope of coverage and naming of the Insured Parties);

(ii) insurance against loss or damage by fire, and such other risks and hazards as are insurable under then available standard forms of “Special Form Causes of Loss” or “All Risk” property insurance policies, insuring Tenant’s Property and all Alterations and improvements to the Premises (including the initial installations) to the extent such Alterations and improvements exceed the cost of the improvements typically performed in connection with the initial occupancy of tenants in the Building ( “Building Standard Installations” ), for the full insurable value thereof or replacement cost thereof, having a deductible amount, if any, not in excess of $25,000;

(iii) during the performance of any Alteration, until completion thereof, Builder’s Risk insurance on an “all risk” basis and on a completed value form including a Permission to Complete and Occupy endorsement, for full replacement value covering the interest of Landlord and Tenant (and their respective contractors and subcontractors) in all work incorporated in the Building and all materials and equipment in or about the Premises to the extent such Alteration activities are not covered by Tenant’s then-existing property insurance policies;

 

23


(iv) Workers’ Compensation Insurance, as required by law;

(v) Business Interruption Insurance covering a minimum of one year of anticipated gross income;

(vi) if the Building or Real Property includes a parking garage or surface parking lot that is utilized by Tenant, Commercial Automobile Liability Insurance for any owned, non-owned or hired vehicles with a combined single limit with respect to each occurrence in an amount of not less than $1,000,000; and

(vii) such other insurance in such amounts as the Insured Parties may reasonably require from time to time.

(b) All insurance required to be carried by Tenant (i) shall contain a provision that (x) no act or omission of Tenant shall affect or limit the obligation of the insurance company to pay the amount of any loss sustained, and (y) shall be noncancellable and/or no material change in coverage shall be made thereto unless the Insured Parties receive 30 days’ prior notice of the same, by certified mail, return receipt requested (except that 10 days’ notice shall be sufficient in the case of cancelation for nonpayment of premiums), and (ii) shall be effected under valid and enforceable policies issued by reputable insurers admitted to do business in the State of Washington and rated in Best’s Insurance Guide, or any successor thereto as having a “Best’s Rating” of “A-” or better and a “Financial Size Category” of at least “X” or better, or, if such ratings are not then in effect, the equivalent thereof or such other financial rating as Landlord may at any time consider appropriate.

(c) On or prior to the Commencement Date, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord appropriate policies of insurance required to be carried pursuant to this Article 11, including evidence of waivers of subrogation and that the Insured Parties are named as additional insureds (the “Policies” ). Evidence of each renewal or replacement of the Policies shall be delivered by Tenant to Landlord at least 10 days prior to the expiration of the Policies. In lieu of the Policies, Tenant may deliver to Landlord a certification from Tenant’s insurance company, on the form currently designated “Acord 27” (Evidence of Property Insurance) and “Acord 25-S” (Certificate of Liability Insurance), or the equivalent, provided that attached thereto is an endorsement to Tenant’s commercial general liability policy naming the Insured Parties as additional insureds, which endorsement is at least as broad as ISO policy form “CG 20 11 Additional Insured – Managers or Lessors of Premises” (pre-1999 edition) and which endorsement expressly provides coverage for the negligence of the additional insureds, which certification shall be binding on Tenant’s insurance company, and which shall expressly provide that such certification (i) conveys to the Insured Parties all the rights and privileges afforded under the Policies as primary insurance, and (ii) contains an unconditional obligation of the insurance company to advise all Insured Parties in writing by certified mail, return receipt requested, at least 30 days in advance of any termination or change to the Policies that would affect the interest of any of the Insured Parties (except that 10 days’ notice shall be sufficient in the case of cancelation for nonpayment of premiums).

Section 11.2 Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant shall each procure an appropriate clause in or endorsement to any property insurance covering the Real Property and personal property, fixtures and equipment located therein, wherein the insurer waives subrogation or consents to a waiver of right of recovery, and Landlord and Tenant agree not to make any claim against, or seek to recover from, the other for any loss or damage to its property or the property of others resulting from fire or other hazards to the extent covered by

 

24


the property insurance that was required to be carried by that party under the terms of this Amended and Restated Lease. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord shall not carry insurance on, and shall not be responsible for, (i) damage to any Above Building Standard Installations, (ii) Tenant’s Property, and (iii) any loss suffered by Tenant due to interruption of Tenant’s business.

Section 11.3 Restoration. (a)  If the Premises are damaged by fire or other casualty, or if the Building is damaged such that Tenant is deprived of reasonable access to the Premises, the damage shall be repaired by Landlord, to substantially the condition of the Premises prior to the damage, subject to the provisions of any Mortgage or Superior Lease, but Landlord shall have no obligation to repair or restore (i) Tenant’s Property or (ii) except as provided in Section 11.3(b), any Alterations or improvements to the Premises to the extent such Alterations or improvements exceed Building Standard Installations ( “Above Building Standard Installations” ). So long as Tenant is not in default beyond applicable grace or notice provisions in the payment or performance of its obligations under this Section 11.3, and provided Tenant timely delivers to Landlord either Tenant’s Restoration Payment (as hereinafter defined) or the Restoration Security (as hereinafter defined) or Tenant expressly waives any obligation of Landlord to repair or restore any of Tenant’s Above Building Standard Installations, then until the restoration of the Premises is Substantially Completed or would have been Substantially Completed but for Tenant Delay, Fixed Rent, Tenant’s Tax Payment and Tenant’s Operating Payment shall be reduced in the proportion by which the area of the part of the Premises which is not usable (or accessible ) and is not used by Tenant bears to the total area of the Premises.

(b) As a condition precedent to Landlord’s obligation to repair or restore any Above Building Standard Installations, Tenant shall (i) pay to Landlord upon demand a sum ( “Tenant’s Restoration Payment” ) equal to the amount, if any, by which (A) the cost, as estimated by a reputable independent contractor designated by Landlord, of repairing and restoring all Alterations and Initial Installations in the Premises to their condition prior to the damage, exceeds (B) the cost of restoring the Premises with Building Standard Installations, or (ii) furnish to Landlord security (the “Restoration Security” ) in form and amount reasonably acceptable to Landlord to secure Tenant’s obligation to pay all costs in excess of restoring the Premises with Building Standard Installations. If Tenant shall fail to deliver to Landlord either (1) Tenant’s Restoration Payment or the Restoration Security, as applicable, or (2) a waiver by Tenant, in form satisfactory to Landlord, of all of Landlord’s obligations to repair or restore any of the Above Building Standard Installations, in either case within 15 days after Landlord’s demand therefor, Landlord shall have no obligation to restore any Above Building Standard Installations and Tenant’s abatement of Fixed Rent, Tenant’s Tax Payment and Tenant’s Operating Payment shall cease when the restoration of the Premises (other than any Above Building Standard Installations) is Substantially Complete.

Section 11.4 Landlord’s Termination Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.3, (a) if the Premises are totally damaged or are rendered wholly untenantable, (b) if the Building shall be so damaged that, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, substantial alteration, demolition, or reconstruction of the Building shall be required (whether or not the Premises are so damaged or rendered untenantable), (c) if any Mortgagee shall require that the insurance proceeds or any portion thereof be used to retire the Mortgage debt or any Lessor shall terminate the Superior Lease, as the case may be, or (d) if the damage is not fully covered, except for deductible amounts, by Landlord’s insurance policies, then in any of such events, Landlord may, not later than 60 days following the date of the damage, terminate this Amended and Restated Lease by notice to Tenant. If this Amended and Restated Lease is so

 

25


terminated, (a) the Term shall expire upon the 30th day after such notice is given, (b) Tenant shall vacate the Premises and surrender the same to Landlord, (c) Tenant’s liability for Rent shall cease as of the date of the damage, and (d) any prepaid Rent for any period after the date of the damage shall be refunded by Landlord to Tenant.

Section 11.5 Tenant’s Termination Right. If the Premises are totally damaged and are thereby rendered wholly untenantable, or if the Building shall be so damaged that Tenant is deprived of reasonable access to the Premises, and if Landlord elects to restore the Premises, Landlord shall, within 60 days following the date of the damage, cause a contractor or architect selected by Landlord to give notice (the “Restoration Notice” ) to Tenant of the date by which such contractor or architect estimates the restoration of the Premises (excluding any Above Building Standard Installations) shall be Substantially Completed. If such date, as set forth in the Restoration Notice, is more than 18 months from the date of such damage, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Amended and Restated Lease by giving notice (the “Termination Notice” ) to Landlord not later than 30 days following delivery of the Restoration Notice to Tenant. If Tenant delivers a Termination Notice, this Amended and Restated Lease shall be deemed to have terminated as of the date of the giving of the Termination Notice, in the manner set forth in the second sentence of Section 11.4.

Section 11.6 Final 18 Months. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 11, if any damage during the final 18 months of the Term renders the Premises wholly untenantable, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Amended and Restated Lease by notice to the other party within 30 days after the occurrence of such damage and this Amended and Restated Lease shall expire on the 30th day after the date of such notice. For purposes of this Section 11.6, the Premises shall be deemed wholly untenantable if Tenant shall be precluded from using more than 50% of the Premises for the conduct of its business and Tenant’s inability to so use the Premises is reasonably expected to continue for more than 90 days.

Section 11.7 Landlord’s Liability. Any Building employee to whom any property shall be entrusted by or on behalf of Tenant shall be deemed to be acting as Tenant’s agent with respect to such property and neither Landlord nor its agents shall be liable for any damage to such property, or for the loss of or damage to any property of Tenant by theft or otherwise. None of the Insured Parties shall be liable for any injury or damage to persons or property or interruption of Tenant’s business resulting from fire or other casualty, any damage caused by other tenants or persons in the Building or by construction of any private, public or quasi-public work, or any latent defect in the Premises or in the Building (except that Landlord shall be required to repair the same to the extent provided in Article 6). No penalty shall accrue for delays which may arise by reason of adjustment of casualty insurance on the part of Landlord or Tenant, or for any Unavoidable Delays arising from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Building, provided that Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises during the performance of any such repair or restoration.

ARTICLE 12

EMINENT DOMAIN

Section 12.1 Taking.

(a) Total Taking. If all or substantially all of the Real Property, the Building or the Premises shall be acquired or condemned for any public or quasi-public purpose (a “Taking” ), this Amended and Restated Lease shall terminate and the Term shall end as of the date of the vesting of title and Rent shall be prorated and adjusted as of such date.

(b) Partial Taking. Upon a Taking of only a part of the Real Property, the Building or the Premises then, except as hereinafter provided in this Article 12, this Amended and Restated Lease shall continue in full force and effect, provided that from and after the date of the vesting of title, Fixed Rent and Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall be modified to reflect the reduction of the Premises and/or the Building as a result of such Taking.
