This Fifth Amendment to Office Lease (the “Fifth Amendment”) , dated January 27, 2006, is made by and between DOUGLAS EMMETT 2000, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, successor in interest to Brighton Enterprises, LLC, a California limited liability company (“Landlord”), with offices at 808 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 200, Santa Monica, California 90401, and KENNEDY- WILSON, INC. a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), with offices at 9601 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 220, Beverly Hills, California 90210.

 

WHEREAS,

 

A.             Wilshire-Camden Associates, a California limited partnership (“Wilshire-Camden”), Landlord’s predecessor-in-interest, pursuant to the provisions of that certain written Office Lease, dated August 19, 1998, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Lease (Expansion) dated March 5, 1999, that certain Second Amendment to Lease (Expansion) dated June 2, 1999, and that certain Termination Agreement dated October 19, 1999 (collectively the “Original Lease”), leased to Tenant, and Tenant leased from Wilshire-Camden space in the property located at 9601 Wilshire Boulevard, Beverly Hills, California 90210 (the “Building”), commonly known as Suite 200 (the entire second floor), and Suite GL-15A/GL-9 (the “Original Premises”);

 

B.             Pursuant to that certain Third Amendment to Office Lease between Landlord’s predecessor-in-interest and Tenant dated December 20, 2002 (the “Third Amendment”), as amended by that certain Fourth Amendment to Office Lease dated September 11, 2003 (the “Fourth Amendment”), Tenant reduced its occupancy in the Building to a portion of Suite 200 renamed as Suite 220 (the “Existing Premises”), and extended the term of the Lease to expire on June 30, 2010 (the “Termination Date”);

 

C.             The Original Lease, the Third Amendment and the Fourth Amendment shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Lease”);

 

D.             On or about January 20, 2006, DOUGLAS EMMETT 2000, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company acquired Brighton Enterprises, LLC, a California limited liability company’s right title and interest in the Lease;

 

E.             Tenant wishes to expand its occupancy within the Building to include additional office space adjacent to the Existing Premises in the Building, commonly known as a portion of Suite 270 (the “Expansion Premises”), as shown on Exhibit A-I, which expansion Landlord has conditionally permitted, contingent upon Tenant’s acceptance of and compliance with the provisions of this Fifth Amendment; and

 

F.             Landlord and Tenant, for their mutual benefit, wish to revise certain other covenants and provisions of the Lease;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and provisions contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge, Landlord and Tenant agree:

 



 

1.                                       Confirmation of Defined Terms. Unless modified herein, all terms previously defined and capitalized in the Lease, as amended shall hold the same meaning for the purposes of this Fifth Amendment.

 

2.                                       Expansion Date and Expansion Term. The expansion contemplated hereunder shall be effective the next business day after the date Landlord substantially completes the improvements contemplated under Paragraph 11.1 below (the “Expansion Date”), and continue for such period of time, co-terminus with the term of the Lease for the Existing Premises, the Termination Date, unless sooner terminated (the “Expansion Term”). For the purposes of establishing the Expansion Date, substantial completion shall be defined as that point in the construction process when all of the Landlord’s Work to be performed under Paragraph 11.1 below has been completed in such a manner that Tenant could, if it took possession of the Expansion Premises, enjoy beneficial occupancy thereof. Tenant’s taking delivery of keys to the Expansion Premises shall constitute Tenant’s acknowledgment that Landlord has substantially completed the Landlord’s Work, and that the Expansion Premises is in good condition and order. The anticipated Expansion Date is January 15, 2006. Landlord and Tenant shall promptly execute an amendment to the Lease (the “Sixth Amendment”), confirming the finalized Expansion Date, and Expansion Term, as soon as they are confirmed.

 

If for any reason (including Landlord’s inability to complete the Landlord’s Work called for hereunder) Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant on the anticipated Expansion Date, this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any damage resulting from Landlord’s inability to deliver such possession.. However, solely with respect to the Expansion Premises, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any increase in the Base Rent or Additional Rent, as called for hereunder with respect to the Expansion Premises, until the Expansion Date (as defined and confirmed in this paragraph). Except for such delay in the commencement of Rent, Landlord’s failure to give possession of the Expansion Premises on the anticipated Expansion Date shall in no way affect Tenant’s obligations hereunder.

 

If possession of the Expansion Premises is not tendered by Landlord within one hundred twenty (120) days after the anticipated Expansion Date, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate the provisions of this Fifth Amendment with respect to the Expansion Premises only by giving written notice to Landlord within ten (10) days after such failure. If such notice of termination is not given by Tenant within said ten (10) day period, then the provisions of this Fifth Amendment shall continue in full force and effect.

 

If due to “Force Majeure” (as defined in Lease Section 27.04), Landlord is unable to tender possession of the Expansion Premises within one hundred fifty (150) days after the anticipated Expansion Date, then this Fifth Amendment with respect to the Expansion Premises only, and the rights and obligations of Landlord and Tenant hereunder, shall terminate automatically, without further documentation being required.

3.                                       Expansion of Premises. As of the Expansion Date, the definition of the Premises shall be revised to include both the Existing Premises and the Expansion Premises, and wherever in the Lease the word “Premises” or “Suite 220” is found, it shall thereafter refer to both the Existing Premises and the Expansion Premises together, as if the same had been originally included in said Lease, except to the extent of the certain provisions in this Fifth Amendment which shall continue to exclusively apply to the Expansion Premises for the duration of the Expansion Term, as extended.

 

As of the Expansion Date, the Usable Area of the Existing Premises shall increase by approximately 1,013 square feet from approximately 9,731 square feet to approximately 10,744 square feet and the Rentable Area of the Existing Premises shall increase by approximately 1,221 square feet from approximately 11,947 square feet to approximately 13,168 square feet.

 

4.                                       Measurement of Expansion Premises. Landlord and Tenant agree that the Usable Area of the Expansion Space has been measured according to the June, 1996 standards published by the Building Owners’ and Managers’ Association (“BOMA”), and that Landlord is utilizing a deemed loss factor of 20.53% to compute the Rentable Area of the Expansion Space. Rentable Area herein is calculated as 1.2053 times the estimated Usable Area, regardless of what the actual square footage of the common areas of the Building may be, and whether or not they are more or less than 20.53% of the total estimated Usable Area of the Building. The purpose of this calculation is solely to provide a general basis for comparison and pricing of this space in relation to other spaces in the market area.

 

5.                                       Revision to Base Rent. Commencing on the Expansion Date and continuing through June 30, 2006, the monthly installment of Base Rent payable by Tenant for the Expansion Premises shall be $4,395.60 per month.

 

Commencing on July 1, 2006 and continuing through June 30, 2007, the monthly installment of Base Rent payable by Tenant for the Expansion Premises shall increase from $4,395.60 per month to $4,527.47 per month.

 

Commencing on July 1, 2007 and continuing through June 30, 2008, the monthly installment of Base Rent payable by Tenant for the Expansion Premises shall increase from $4,527.47 per month to $4,663.29 per month.

 

Commencing on July 1, 2008 and continuing through June 30, 2009, the monthly installment of Base Rent payable by Tenant for the Expansion Premises shall increase from $4,663.29 per month to $4,803.19 per month.

 

Commencing on July 1, 2009 and continuing and continuing throughout the remainder of the Expansion Term, the monthly installment of Base Rent payable by Tenant for the Expansion Premises shall increase from $4,803.19 per month to $4,947.29 per month.

6.                                       Revision to Base Year. As of the Expansion Date, the Base Year for Tenant’s payment of increases in Property Taxes and Operating Expenses, solely as it relates to the Expansion Premises, shall be calendar year 2006.

 

7.                                       Revision to Tenant’s Percentage Share. Tenant’s Percentage Share of increases in Property Taxes and Operating Expenses over the Base Year, solely as it relates to the Expansion Premises, shall be 0.46%.

 

8.                                       Increase in Security Deposit. Landlord acknowledges that it currently holds the sum of $47,284.47 as a Security Deposit under the Lease, which amount Landlord shall continue to hold throughout the term for the Existing Premises and Expansion Term, unless otherwise applied pursuant to the provisions of the Lease. Concurrent with Tenant’s execution and tendering to Landlord of this Fifth Amendment, Tenant shall tender the sum of $4,947.29, which amount Landlord shall add to the Security Deposit already held by Landlord, so that thereafter, throughout the term for the Existing Premises and Expansion Term, provided the same is not otherwise applied, Landlord shall hold a total of $52,231.76 as a Security Deposit on behalf of Tenant. ·

 

9.                                       Intentionally Omitted.

 

10.                                Parking. As of the Expansion Date, Tenant is entitled to purchase an additional three (3) unreserved parking permits pursuant to the Lease and at the prevailing monthly Building parking rates then in effect, which monthly rates may change from time to time, in Landlord’s sole discretion.

 

11.                                Acceptance of Premises. Tenant acknowledges that (i) it has been in possession of the Existing Premises for over two (2) years, and (ii) to the best of Tenant’s knowledge, as of the date hereof, it has no claim against Landlord in connection with the Existing Premises or the Lease. Tenant has made its own inspection of and inquiries regarding the Expansion Premises, which is already unproved. Therefore, except to the extent of the Landlord’s Work to be performed by Landlord’s contractor pursuant to Paragraph 11.1 below, Tenant accepts the Expansion Premises in its “as-is” condition. Tenant further acknowledges that Landlord has made no currently effective representation or warranty, express or implied regarding the condition, suitability or usability of the Existing Premises, Expansion Premises or the Building for the purposes intended by Tenant.

 

11.1                         Tenant Improvements-Expansion Premises. Prior to the Expansion Date, (and concurrent with Tenant’s occupancy of the Existing Premises which shall not entitle Tenant to any set-off or rent abatement for the Existing Premises), Landlord agrees to perform the following improvements in the Expansion Premises, at Landlord’s sole expense (the “Landlord’s Work”):

 

(a)                                   Demolish and remove three (3) walls, in the area indicated on Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein;

 

(b)                                  Repaint the interior wails previously painted, using Building standard materials and a maximum of two coats of paint previously selected by Tenant; and

 

(c)                                   Replace the carpeting, base molding and padding (only if the padding is deteriorated), using Building standard materials previously selected by Tenant (collectively the “Landlord’s Work”).

If Tenant elects to make any other improvements to the Premises during the Expansion Term or the term for the Existing Premises, the same shall be considered an “Alteration”, to be completed by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole expense, pursuant to the provisions of the Lease, Article 9, Section 9.01.

 

12.                                Option to Extend the Expansion Term.

 

12.1                         Paragraph 12.1. Option to Extend Expansion Term.

 

12.2                         Option to Extend Term. Provided Tenant is not in material default after the expiration of notice and the opportunity to cure on the date or at any time during the remainder of the Expansion Term after Tenant gives notice to Landlord of Tenant’s intent to exercise its rights pursuant to this Paragraph 12, Tenant is given the option to extend the term for an additional Five (5) year period (the “Suite 270-Extended Term”), commencing the next calendar day after the expiration of the Expansion Term (the “Suite 270-Option”). The Suite 270-Option shall apply only to the entirety of the Expansion Premises, and Tenant shall have no right to exercise the Suite 270-Option as to only a portion of the Expansion, Premises. Further the Suite 270- Option is separately exercisable by Tenant from the Option to Extend the Suite 220 Term as set forth in Paragraph 12 of the Third Amendment, and intended to apply only to the Expansion Premises.

 

Tenant’s exercise of this Suite 270-Option is contingent upon Tenant giving written notice to Landlord (the “Suite 270-Option Notice”) of Tenant’s election to exercise its rights pursuant to this Suite 270-Option by Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested, no more than twelve (12) and no less than nine (9) months prior to the Termination Date.

 

12.3                         Monthly Base Rent Payable. The Base Rent payable by Tenant during the Suite 270- Extended Term (“Suite 270-Option Rent”) shall be equal to the Fair Market Value of the Expansion Premises as of the commencement date of the Suite 270-Extended Term. The term “Fair Market Value” shall be defined as the effective rent reasonably achievable by Landlord, and shall include but not be limited to, all economic benefits obtainable by Landlord, such as monthly Base Rent (including periodic adjustments), Additional Rent in the form of Operating Expense reimbursements, and any and all other monetary or non-monetary consideration that may be given in the market place to a non-renewal tenant, as is chargeable for a similar use of comparable space in the Beverly Hills area of the Expansion Premises. Said computation shall specifically be based on the Expansion Premises in its “as-is” condition.

 

Landlord and Tenant shall have thirty (30) days (the “Suite 270-Negotiation Period”) after Landlord receives the Suite 270-Option Notice in which to agree on the Fair Market Value. If Landlord and Tenant agree on the Fair Market Value during the Suite 270-Negotiation Period, they shall immediately execute an amendment to the Lease extending the Expansion Term and stating the Fair Market Value.

 

12.4                         Appraisers to Set Fixed Rent. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the Fair Market Value during the Suite 270-Negotiation Period, then:

 

(a)                                   Landlord and Tenant, each at its own cost, shall select an independent real estate appraiser with at least ten (10) years full-time commercial appraisal experience in the area in which the Expansion Premises are located, and shall provide written notice to the other party of the identity and address of the appraiser so appointed.

Landlord and Tenant shall make such selection within ten (10) days after the expiration of the Suite 270-Negotiation Period.

 

(b)                                  Within thirty (30) days of having been appointed to do so (the “Suite 270-Appraisal Period”), the two (2) appraisers so appointed shall meet and set the Fair Market Value for the Suite 270-Extended Term. In setting the Fair Market Value, the appraisers shall solely consider the use of the Expansion Premises for general office purposes.

 

12.5                         Failure by Appraisers to Set Fair Market Value. If the two (2) appointed appraisers are unable to agree on the Fair Market Value within ten (10) days after expiration of the Suite 270- Appraisal Period, they shall elect a third appraiser of like or better qualifications, and who has not previously acted in any capacity far either Landlord or Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall each bear one half of the costs of the third appraiser’s fee.

 

Within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third appraiser (the “Second Suite 270- Appraisal Period”) the Fair Market Value for the Suite 270-Extended Term shall be set by a majority of the appraisers now appointed.

 

If a majority of the appraisers are unable to set the Fair Market Value within the Second Suite 270-Appraisal Period, the three (3) appraisers shall individually render separate appraisals of the Fair Market Value, and their three (3) appraisals shall be added together, then divided by three (3); resulting in an average of the appraisals, which shall be the Fair Market Value during the Suite 270-Extended Term.

 

However, if the Low appraisal or high appraisal varies by more than ten percent (10%) from the middle appraisal, then one (1) or both shall be disregarded. If only one (1) appraisal is disregarded, the r
