By Landlord Landlord shall, subject to reimbursement to the extent set forth in Section 4, keep and maintain in good repair and working order and make repairs to and perform maintenance upon: (1) the Building’s Structure; (2) Building standard mechanical (including HVAC), electrical, heating, plumbing and fire/life safety systems serving the Project generally; (3) Common Areas; (4) the roof of the Building; (5) exterior windows of the Project; and (6) elevators serving the Building. Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to make any such repairs or to perform any maintenance unless such failure shall persist for an unreasonable time after written notice of the need for such repairs or maintenance is given to Landlord by Tenant. If any of the foregoing maintenance or repair is necessitated due to the acts or omissions of any Tenant Party, Tenant shall pay the costs of such repairs or maintenance to Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice, together with an administrative charge in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the cost of the repairs. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any interruption of Tenant’s business or inconvenience caused due to any work performed in the Premises or in the Project pursuant to Landlord’s rights and obligations under the Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s business operations and access to the Premises in making such repairs. To the extent allowed by law, Tenant waives the right to make repairs at Landlord’s expense under Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code, and the right to terminate the Lease under Section 1932(1) of the California Civil Code, and any other laws, statutes or ordinances now or hereafter in effect of like import. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if: (i) the Premises or a material portion thereof, is rendered untenantable (meaning that Tenant is unable to use the Premises in the normal course of it business) because of the grossly negligent performance of any repair or maintenance work by Landlord, its employees, agents or contractors, or grossly negligent failure to perform any repair or maintenance work that Landlord is responsible for performing pursuant to this Lease; (ii) Tenant provides an Interruption Notice with respect thereto; (iii) such condition does not arise in whole or in part as a result of an act or omission of a Tenant Party; (iv) such condition is not caused by a fire or other Casualty; and (v) the cause of such condition is reasonably within the control of Landlord, then, Tenant’s sole remedy therefor shall be as follows: on the tenth (10th) consecutive Business Day following the latest to occur of the date the Premises (or material portion thereof) becomes untenantable, the date Tenant ceases to use such space and the date Tenant provides Landlord with an Interruption Notice, the Rent payable hereunder shall be abated on a per diem basis for each day after such ten (10) Business Day period based upon the percentage of the Premises so rendered untenantable and not used by Tenant, and such abatement shall continue until the date the Premises become tenantable again.
ACCESS BY LANDLORD Landlord and any of Landlord’s Invitees shall have the right to enter the Premises at all reasonable times, during normal business hours if feasible under the circumstances, and upon 24 hours’ notice, if feasible under the circumstances, (i) to determine whether the Premises are in good condition and whether Tenant is complying with its obligations under this Lease, (ii) to do any necessary maintenance or make any restoration to the Premises that Landlord has the right or obligation to perform, (iii) to serve, post, or keep posted any notices required or allowed under this Lease, (v) to post “for sale” or “for rent” or “for lease” signs during the final nine months of the Term, (vi) to show the Premises to brokers, lenders, agents, prospective buyers, prospective tenants, or other persons interested in a listing of, financing, purchasing, or occupying the Project, the Premises or any portion of the Project or the Premises, and (vii) to shore the foundations, footings, and walls of the Project, and to erect scaffolding and protective barricades around and about the Premises, but not so as to prevent entry to the Premises, and to do any other act or thing necessary for the safety or preservation of the Premises if any excavation or other construction is undertaken or is about to be undertaken on any adjacent property or nearby street. In the event of an emergency Landlord shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, without prior notice to Tenant. Landlord’s rights under this Paragraph extend, with Landlord’s consent, to the owner of adjacent property on which excavation or construction is to take place and the adjacent property owner’s agents, employees, officers, and contractors. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience, disturbance, loss of business, nuisance, or other damage arising out of any entry on the Premises as provided in this Paragraph except damage resulting directly from the grossly negligent acts or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s Invitees. Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of Basic Monthly Rent or other Rent because of the exercise by Landlord of any rights under this Paragraph.
Landlord Liability Tenant, its successors and assigns, shall not assert nor seek to enforce any claim for breach of this Lease against any of Landlord's assets other than Landlord's interest in the Industrial Center. Tenant agrees to look solely to such interest for the satisfaction of any liability or claim against Landlord under this Lease. In no event whatsoever shall Landlord (which term shall include, without limitation, any general or limited partner, trustees, beneficiaries, officers, directors, or stockholders of Landlord) ever be personally liable for any such liability.
SALE BY LANDLORD In event of a sale or conveyance by Landlord of the Building, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any future liability upon any of the covenants or conditions, expressed or implied, contained in this Lease in favor of Tenant, and in such event Tenant agrees to look solely to the responsibility of the successor in interest of Landlord in and to this Lease. Except as set forth in this Article 24, this Lease shall not be affected by any such sale and Tenant agrees to attorn to the purchaser or assignee. If any security has been given by Tenant to secure the faithful performance of any of the covenants of this Lease, Landlord may transfer or deliver said security, as such, to Landlord’s successor in interest and thereupon Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with regard to said security.
Default by Landlord Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within a reasonable time, but in no event earlier than thirty (30) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises whose name and address shall have heretofore been furnished to Tenant in writing, specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform such obligations; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's obligations is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance, then Landlord shall not be in default if Landlord commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion.
Maintenance by Landlord Tenant and its employees, customers and licensees shall have the non-exclusive right to use the parking areas, if any, as may be designated by Landlord in writing, subject to such reasonable rules and regulations as Landlord may from time to time prescribe. Further, in multiple occupancy buildings, Landlord shall perform the roof, paving, and landscape maintenance, exterior painting and common sewage line plumbing which are otherwise Tenant's obligations under Subsection 2.2.2(a) above, and Tenant shall, in lieu of the obligations set forth under Subsection 2.2.2(a) above with respect to such items, be liable for its proportionate share (as defined in Subsection 2.2.1(b) above) of the cost and expense of Building maintenance and the care for the grounds around the Building, including but not limited to, the mowing of grass, care of shrubs, general landscaping, maintenance of parking areas, driveways and alleys, roof maintenance, exterior repainting and common sewage line plumbing; provided, however, that Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to pay such other reasonable proportion of said mowing, shrub care and general landscaping costs as may be determined by Landlord in its sole discretion; and further provided that if Tenant or any other particular tenant of the Building can be clearly identified as being responsible for obstruction or stoppage of the common sanitary sewage line then Tenant, if Tenant is responsible, or such other responsible tenant, shall pay the entire cost thereof, upon demand, as additional rent. Tenant shall pay/4// when due its share, determined as aforesaid, of such costs and expenses along with the other tenants of the Building to Landlord upon demand, as Additional Rent, for the amount of its share of such costs and expenses in the event Landlord elects to perform or cause to be performed such work. Such share shall include a management fee equal to five percent (5%) of the Rent for each Lease Year, administrative and accounting costs, and a/5// reserve for asphalt, roof repairs and repainting.
Exemption of Landlord from Liability Landlord shall not be liable for any damage or injury to the person, business (or any loss of income therefrom), goods, wares, merchandise or other property of Tenant, Tenant's employees, invitees, customers or any other person in or about the Property, whether such damage or injury is caused by or results from: (a) fire, steam, electricity, water, gas or rain; (b) the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures or any other cause; (c) conditions arising in or about the Property or upon other portions of the Project, or from other sources or places; or (d) any act or omission of any other tenant of the Project. Landlord shall not be liable for any such damage or injury even though the cause of or the means of repairing such damage or injury are not accessible to Tenant. The provisions of this Section 6.02 shall not, however, exempt Landlord from liability for Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Services by Landlord Landlord shall cause to be furnished to the Premises, in common with other tenants, during business hours of 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M., Monday through Friday (excluding National and State holidays), the following services; janitorial services (once per working day after normal working hours), water (if available from city mains) for drinking, lavatory and toilet purposes, operatorless elevator service and, to Suite 200, heating and air conditioning for the reasonably comfortable use and occupancy of the Premises, provided heating and cooling conforming to any governmental regulation prescribing limitations thereon shall be deemed to comply with this service. Landlord shall furnish Suite 200 of the Premises with electricity for the maintenance of building standard fluorescent lighting composed of 2' x 4' fixtures. Incandescent fixtures, table lamps, all lighting other than the aforesaid building standard fluorescent light, dimmers and all lighting controls other than controls for the aforesaid building standard fluorescent lighting shall be serviced, replaced and maintained at Tenant's expense. Landlord shall also furnish Suite 200 of the Premises with electricity for lighting for the aforesaid building standard fluorescent lighting and for the operation of general office machines, such as electric typewriters, desk top computers, word processing equipment, dictating equipment, adding machines and calculators, and general service non-production type office copy machines. Landlord shall have the right to enter and inspect the Premises and all electrical devices therein from time to time, provided that Landlord shall have no obligation to provide more than fifty (50) circuits of electricity for convenience outlets serving Suite 200 of the Premises. After hours heating and air conditioning is available to Suite 200 at a charge of $25.00 per hour, per zone, with a minimum of two (2) hours per occurrence. All additional costs resulting from Tenant's extraordinary usage of heating, air conditioning or electricity shall be paid by Tenant upon demand as Additional Rent for each month or portion thereof, and Tenant shall not install equipment with unusual demands for any of the foregoing without Landlord's prior written consent, which Landlord may withhold if it determines that in its opinion such equipment may not be safely used in the Premises or that electrical service is not adequate therefor. Provided however, Tenant may install a supplemental HVAC unit to serve the Premises or other high demand equipment at its own cost and expense. The supplemental HVAC unit or high demand equipment shall be approved by Landlord and shall be installed in a location approved by Landlord and, if installed in Suite 200, separately metered by an E/mon D/mon, or equivalent, meter. Tenant shall pay all costs involved in installing and maintaining the supplemental HVAC unit and/or equipment and related meter, including purchase, installation, maintenance, removal and restoration costs (if Landlord requires removal at the end of the Lease Term), and monthly utility bills read from the meter in Suite 200 by Landlord. Monthly utility bills from the meter shall be paid in the same manner as Rent under Section Four of this Lease and subject to the same penalties for nonpayment or late payment. At Landlord's option, upon expiration of the Lease the Tenant (at Tenant's expense) shall remove from the Premises any separate panel, meter, and all associated wiring related to the HVAC unit and high demand equipment, and shall restore that portion of the Premises to Building standard conditions. If heat generating machines or equipment shall be used in the Premises by Tenant which affect the temperature otherwise maintained by the heating and air conditioning system, Landlord shall have the right to install supplemental air conditioning units in the Premises and the cost thereof, including the cost of engineering and installation, and the cost of operation and maintenance thereof, shall be paid by Tenant upon demand by Landlord. Landlord shall further provide a reasonable pro rata amount of unreserved free parking, (three (3) spaces for each one thousand (1,000) square foot of the Premises) in common with the other tenants, for Tenant's employees and visitors. Suite 102 of the Premises shall have a separate electrical meter and Tenant shall be directly responsible for electrical charges to Suite 102. Landlord shall provide up to twenty-two (22) circuits for convenience outlets serving Suite 102. So long as Landlord acts reasonably and in good faith, there shall be no abatement or reduction of Rent by reason of any of the foregoing services not being continuously provided to Tenant. Tenant shall report immediately to Landlord any defective condition in or about the Premises known to Tenant and if such defect is not so reported and such failure to promptly report results in other damage, Tenant shall be liable for same. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any damage caused to Tenant and its property due to the Building or any part or appurtenance thereof being improperly constructed or being or becoming out of repair, or arising from the leaking of gas, water, sewer or steam pipes, or from electricity; provided however, Tenant does not waive its rights to specific performance or other remedies if the foregoing services are not provided as set forth above.
ENTRY BY LANDLORD Landlord reserves the right at all reasonable times and upon not less than 48 hours advance notice to Tenant to enter the Premises to: (i) inspect them; (ii) show the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or tenants, or to the ground lessors; (iii) to post notices of nonresponsibility; or (iv) alter, improve or repair the Premises or the Building if necessary to comply with current building codes or other applicable laws, or for structural alterations, repairs or improvements to the Building, or as Landlord may otherwise reasonably desire or deem necessary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 22, Landlord may enter the Premises at any time, without notice to Tenant, in emergency situations and/or to perform janitorial or other services required of Landlord pursuant to this Lease. Any such entries shall be without the abatement of Rent and shall include the right to take such reasonable steps as required to accomplish the stated purposes; provided, however, that Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize any disruption to Tenant’s business operations in the Premises during any such entry. Subject to Section 6.7 of this Lease, Tenant hereby waives any claims for damages or for any injuries or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, lost profits, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the above purposes, Landlord shall at all times have a key with which to unlock all the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults, safes and special security areas designated in advance by Tenant. In an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to enter without notice and use any means that Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in and to the Premises. Any entry into the Premises in the manner hereinbefore described shall not be deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant from any portion of the Premises.
LIABILITY OF LANDLORD The word "LANDLORD" as used herein includes the Landlord named above as well as its successors and assigns, each of which shall have the same rights, remedies, powers, authorities and privileges as it would have had it originally signed this lease as Landlord. Any such person or entity, whether or not named herein, shall have no liability hereunder after it ceases to hold title to the Premises except for obligations already accrued (and, as to any unapplied portion of Tenant's Security Deposit, Landlord shall be relieved of all liability therefor upon transfer of such portion to its successor in interest) and Tenant shall look solely to Landlord's successor in interest for the performance of the covenants and obligations of the Landlord hereunder which thereafter shall accrue. Neither Landlord nor any principal of Landlord nor any owner of the Property, whether disclosed or undisclosed, shall have any personal liability with respect to any of the provisions of this lease or the Premises, and if Landlord is in breach or default with respect to Landlord's obligations under this lease or otherwise, Tenant shall look solely to the equity of Landlord in the Property for the satisfaction of Tenant's claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no mortgagee or ground lessor succeeding to the interest of Landlord hereunder (either in terms of ownership or possessory rights) shall be (a) liable for any previous act or omission of a prior landlord, (b) subject to any rental offsets or defenses against a prior landlord or (c) bound by any amendment of this lease made without its written consent, or by payment by Tenant of Minimum Annual Rent in advance in excess of one monthly installment.
