ARTICLE 4
TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND CHARGES
Section 4.1 Throughout the term of this Lease, Lessee shall pay and discharge, prior to delinquency, all taxes, assessments, impositions and charges whatsoever assessed or imposed upon the leased Premises, any improvements thereon and all personal property located on or in the leased Premises as they become due and payable, and Lessee shall, upon written request from Lessor, submit to Lessor proper and sufficient receipts or other evidence of the payment and discharge of the same; provided, however, if the Premises real property taxes, assessments or other charges are not imposed separately from the building of which they form a part, then the Lessee shall pay sixty percent (60%) thereof as its pro rata portion. Lessee shall also pay sixty percent (60%) of all taxes, assessments, or other charges levied against all Common Building Improvements as defined in Section 14.3 hereof. Lessor will promptly forward any tax statements it shall receive pertaining to all or part of Lessee's premises. If taxes, assessments, or other charges are imposed on areas of the property which do not comprise or affect the Premises and are not Common Building Improvements, Lessor shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of said taxes. In the event any such taxes, assessments, impositions or charges should not be paid when due, Lessor shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to pay the same. If Lessor shall make such payments, it shall thereupon become entitled to repayment by Lessee on demand, together with interest thereon as provided in Article 19.
Lessee may elect to let any improvement assessment go to bond in accordance with applicable law. Taxes and assessments levied or imposed preceding the expiration or termination of this Lease, including payments on improvement bonds, shall be prorated as of the date of termination of this Lease.
Public improvement assessments previously wholly or partially paid by Lessee shall be prorated on the basis of a 30-year amortization term as of the termination date of this Lease or any extension hereof, and Lessee shall be reimbursed for the unexpired portion of such 30-year period; provided, however, that Lessee shall pay, as its pro rata share, sixty percent (60%) of all improvement assessments and the like which are not assessed separately from the building of which they form a part.
The first year and last year of the term of this Lease will be prorated between Lessor and Lessee.
Section 4.2 Lessee shall have the right in good faith, at its expense, in Lessor and/or Lessee's name, to contest or review in legal proceedings, or in such manner as it deems suitable, any such taxes, assessments, impositions or charges, provided that such contest or review operates to suspend the collection of such taxes, assessments, impositions or charges or prevents the sale of the leased Premises (or the said personal property, respectively) to satisfy the same; and provided further that Lessee, not less than five (5) days before any such taxes, assessments, impositions or charges shall become delinquent, shall give notice to Lessor of its intention to contest or review same; and, pending any such proceedings to contest or review same, that is to say, until such tax, assessment, imposition or charge
2
shall have become final, Lessor shall not have the right to pay, remove or discharge the tax, assessment, imposition or charge so contested or reviewed. Lessee may pay such item of contested tax, assessment, imposition or charge to the appropriate public authority, under protest. Lessor will join in any contest or protest provided for in this Section 4.2 at the request of Lessee, but at Lessee's sole cost and expense.
Section 4.3 Lessee shall also have the right, if Lessee so desires, to endeavor to obtain a lowering of the assessed valuation of the leased Premises or the improvements placed thereon and Lessor agrees to cooperate and join in any such endeavor at no expense to Lessor. Nothing in this lease shall be construed as requiring Lessee to pay any franchise tax, corporate license fees, income tax or personal property tax of Lessor, nor to pay any tax that may be levied upon or against the income or profits of Lessor, including but not by way of limitation, any income from the rentals provided for herein, nor any real property tax assessed against real property of Lessor, other than the property herein leased, nor any inheritance, gift, succession or estate tax based upon any inheritance, gift or transfer of Lessor's interest in the leased Premises, nor any tax of the same nature as any tax mentioned in this sentence, nor any tax substituted for any tax mentioned in this sentence.
Section 4.4 Lessee agrees that within thirty (30) days after written notice from Lessor, it will exhibit to Lessor for examination receipts for all taxes, assessments and charges paid. Real estate taxes shall be prorated between Lessee and Lessor as of the date of the signing of this Lease and also as of the date of termination of this Lease; that is, Lessor is to bear and pay all real property taxes for the period prior to the signing of this Lease, and further, after termination of this Lease, Lessor to be charged and to pay all real property taxes for the portion of the tax year following said Lease termination.
ARTICLE 5
PERCENTAGE RENT
Section 5.1 Percentage Rent. In addition to the Base Rent payable under Article 3, Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor as additional rent in each year during the Original Term of this Lease and the Renewal Terms, if applicable, a sum equal to 6% percent of Lessee's gross sales in and from said Premises in such year, computed as hereinafter provided, less the aggregate amount of the Base Rent paid in such year.
Section 5.2 Definition of Gross Sales. The term "gross sales" as used in this Lease, shall mean the gross amount received by Lessee whether or not for cash, credit, check, or charge account (whether payment is actually received for sales or credit or not) from all sales of merchandise, services and from income from all other sources derived from business conducted on said Premises and including off premises sales and banquet and meeting room charges if the food was prepared at the Premises.
Section 5.3 Deductions from Gross Sales. There shall be excepted from Lessee's gross sales, as said term is used herein: a) the amount of all sales, excise or other taxes imposed by a governmental body, whether such taxes are separately added to, or included in the selling price; b) the aggregate amount of the established discounts deducted by Diner's Club, American Express or other organizations issuing credit cards to customers of Lessee from the amounts charged to such customers; c) insurance proceeds from casualty and business losses, except for business interruption insurance or other insurance to the extent that such insurance compensates Lessee for loss of sales; d) the proceeds of the sale of any franchise to operate a restaurant on the premises; e) proceeds from the sale of fixtures or equipment used in the business; f) money deposited in coin-operated devices, so long as said devices remain only a minor activity incidental to Lessee's use of the Premises; g) delivery or consumption of food where there exists no intention to charge or collect for such delivery or consumption, as in the case of promotional meals, charity meals, and meals for employees; h) tips for
3
employees; i) the amount of any actual refunds or credits made by Lessee for returned merchandise, the amount whereof had theretofore been included by Lessee in Lessee's gross sales.
Section 5.4 Accounting. Lessee shall keep or cause to be kept, full, complete, and proper books, records and accounts of the gross sales and credits of each separate department and concession at any time operated in the demised premises; said books, records and accounts, including any sales tax reports that Lessee may be required to furnish to any governmental agency, shall at all reasonable times be open to the inspection of Lessor, Lessor's auditor or other authorized representative or agent.
Section 5.5 Percentage Rent Payments/Sales Reports. On or before the fifteenth (15th) day of each calendar month during the term of this Lease, Lessee shall prepare and deliver to Lessor at the place designated by Lessor a statement of gross sales made during the preceding calendar month. At such time, Lessee shall pay to Lessor an amount equal to 6% of Lessee's gross sales for the prior month, less the aggregate amount of the Base Rent paid in such month. In addition, within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of each lease year and within ninety (90) days after termination of this Lease if the Lease should not terminate at the end of the lease year, Lessee shall prepare and deliver to Lessor at the place designated by Lessor a statement of gross sales during the preceding calendar year certified to be correct by Lessee. Lessee shall furnish similar statements for any licensees, concessionaires, and subtenants if they are permitted by landlord pursuant to Article 13 below. All such statements shall be in such form as Lessor may reasonably require, and are subject to Sections 5.6 and 5.7 below.
Section 5.6 Audit. At Lessor's expense, Lessor may cause at any reasonable time upon fifteen (15) days prior notice to Lessee a complete audit be made of Lessee's records relating to gross sales for the period covered by any statement issued by Lessee pursuant to this Lease; provided, however, that if such records are found to be incorrect to the extent of three-percent (3%) or more over the gross sales figure submitted by Lessee, Lessee shall pay for such audit. Lessee shall promptly pay to Lessor any deficiency, or Lessor shall promptly refund to Lessee any overpayment, as the case may be, which is established by such audit. Lessor shall only have the right to audit Lessee's books and records with respect to Gross sales once per year.
Section 5.7 Year-end Adjustment. Within thirty (30) days after the close of each lease year, a final adjustment and accounting for each lease year shall be had to determine the gross sales of the preceding lease year, and the amount of rent paid by the Lessee during such preceding lease year, including the rent based upon the percentage of gross sales. In the event the amounts of rent for said year actually paid by Lessee exceed 6% of the gross sales as so computed on a twelve month basis, then such excess rental payments shall, at Lessee's option, be promptly refunded to Lessee, or be credited by Lessor to Lessee upon the next installment or installments of monthly base rental due under the Lease. Provided, however, that Lessee shall never pay for any lease year less than the Base Rent provided for above. In the event the amount of rent paid by Lessee is less than six percent (6%) of the gross sales, Lessee shall pay the difference to Lessor. All debits and credits arising under the terms of this paragraph shall be paid within thirty (30) days of the completion of the final adjustment and accounting.

Section 5.9 Confidentiality. Lessor covenants and agrees with Lessee that the Lessor will keep and treat as strictly confidential all information and data obtained from the Lessee's report of gross sales. Lessor shall not disclose such information nor disseminate copies or excerpts of all or any portion of Lessee's report of gross sales, except a) to lending institutions from which the Lessor has, or in full faith intends to seek financing; b) to a prospective transferee of Lessor's interest in the Premises; c) in connection with litigation between Lessor and Lessee arising hereunder; d) in compliance with subpoenas or judicial orders duly issued to Lessor; or e) in any registration statement filed with the Security and Exchange Commission or similar body.

Lessee shall have the right to contest the validity of or seek a variance from or review of said legal requirements, or any of them, by administrative or court proceedings or in such other manner as Lessee deems suitable and, if able, may have said legal requirements, or any of them, cancelled, removed or revoked without actual compliance with the same. If such actions or proceedings are instituted, they shall be conducted promptly at the expense of Lessee and free of expense to Lessor. If and whenever any of said legal requirements shall become absolute against Lessee and the leased Premises, or against Lessor after contest thereof, Lessee shall comply with the same due diligence. If Lessee is in default thereof for five (5) days, Lessor may comply therewith and the cost and expense of so doing may be paid by Lessor.

Should Lessee fail fully to discharge any such lien or claim (the validity of which is not disputed by Lessee or, in any case, if finally adjudicated against Lessee by any court of law) within thirty (30) days after written demand from Lessor to Lessee to do so, Lessor, at Lessor's option, may pay the same or any part thereof, and Lessor shall be the sole judge of the validity of said lien or claim. All amounts so paid by Lessor, together with interest thereon, shall be paid by Lessee as provided in Article 19.

- (a)
- Fire

mortgagee of any mortgage on any part of the leased Premises pursuant to Article 12, if any, shall be named as an additional insured under said insurance as its interests may appear, subject to
Lessor notifying Lessee of the name of such mortgagee. Lessor agrees to waive any claim upon, or interest in, fire insurance proceeds, provided that same is used for restoration or improvements on the

- (1)
- In
reduction of any then existing encumbrances against the demised Premises and the improvements, including taxes, assessments (bonded or otherwise) and mortgages;
- (2)
- In
payment of any rents accrued and unpaid and any other sums theretofore arising under this lease and unpaid to Lessor;
- (3)
- In
payment of the Base Rents that would fall due during the balance of the leasehold term.
- (4)
- The overplus to be the property of the Lessor.
Section 9.2 Lessee may maintain such insurance under a blanket policy covering the leased Premises and other Premises and property of Lessee and affiliated companies. Lessee, upon Lessor's reasonable request, shall cause to be furnished to Lessor a certificate evidencing the insurance maintained by Lessee as required by this lease, or satisfactory evidence that such insurance is in effect.
7
Section 9.3 Every such insurance policy shall contain to the extent obtainable, an agreement by the insurer that it will not cancel such policy except upon ten (10) days' prior written notice to Lessor and to said mortgagees.
Section 9.4 If Lessee fails to procure any such insurance or keep the same in force and effect, Lessor may, after written notice to Lessee, procure the necessary insurance and pay the premium therefor and Lessee shall repay Lessor on demand the amount so paid as premium, together with interest as provided in Article 19.
ARTICLE 10
EMINENT DOMAIN
Section 10.1 Partial Taking. If a portion of the Premises is condemned and Section 10.2 does not apply, the Lease shall continue on the following terms:
(1) Lessor shall be entitled to all of the proceeds of condemnation, and Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor as a result of the condemnation, except it shall have a claim against the condemning authority as permitted by statute, for the value of fixtures installed by it, relocation expenses, and for reasonable moving expenses, if applicable.
(2) Lessor shall proceed, promptly upon its receipt of the condemnation award, to make such repairs and alterations to the Premises as are necessary to restore the remaining Premises to a condition as comparable as reasonably practicable to that existing at the time of the condemnation. Such repairs shall be completed as rapidly as reasonably practical, subject to obtaining all necessary building approvals and permits, and shall be completed within six (6) months unless delayed without fault or neglect of Lessor (excusable delay shall include the delay of building officials in granting permits, where Lessor has submitted timely and adequate plans and specifications). If such repairs are delayed longer than six (6) months due to the fault or neglect of Lessor, Lessee may terminate the Lease.
(3) After the date on which title vests in the condemning authority or an earlier date on which alterations or repairs are commenced by Lessor, to restore the balance of the Premises in anticipation of taking, the Base Rent shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction in usable space on account of the partial taking. If the parties are unable to agree on the amount of rent, the amount shall be determined by arbitration in the manner provided in Section 21.
(4) During any period of reconstruction or renovation, there shall be an abatement of Base Rent, additional rent, and all other charges under the Lease until the earlier of a) Lessee's reopening business to the public; or b) thirty (30) days following completion of Lessor's renovation work.
(5) If a portion of Lessor's property not included in the Premises is taken, and severance damages are awarded on account of the Premises, or an award is made for detriment to the Premises as a result of activity by a public body not involving a physical taking of any portion of the Premises, this shall be regarded as a partial condemnation to which Sections 10.1(1) and 10.1(3) apply, and the Base Rent shall be reduced to the extent of reduction in rental value of the Premises as though a portion had been physically taken.
(6) The term of the Lease shall be automatically extended by any period of time that Lessee's business is closed due to a partial taking or the renovation or repair thereof.
Section 10.2 Total Taking. If a condemning authority takes all of the Premises or a portion sufficient to render the remaining Premises reasonably unsuitable for the use that Lessee was then making of the Premises, which determination shall be made according to the reasonable discretion of the Lessee, provided that more than thirty percent (30%) of the square footage of the Premises is
8
taken, the Lease shall terminate as of the date the title vests in the condemning authorities. Lessor shall be entitled to all of the proceeds of condemnation, and Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor as a result of the condemnation, and Lessee shall have such claim against the condemning authority as permitted by statute for the value of fixtures installed by it, relocation expenses and moving expenses.
Section 10.3 Sale in Lieu of Condemnation. Sale of all or part of the Premises to a purchaser with the power of eminent domain in the face of a threat or probability of the exercise of the power shall be treated for the purposes of this Section 10 as a taking by condemnation.

Section 12.4 Subject to the provisions of Section 12.3, nothing contained in this Lease shall preclude the Lessor from mortgaging its fee or reversionary interest or estate in the leased property, or renewing, extending, modifying, consolidating or replacing any such mortgage.
Subject to the paragraphs herein provided, all subleases, if approved as provided herein, entered into by the Lessee shall be subject and subordinate to all the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease.

DEFAULT
Section 27.1 Failure to Pay Rent. In the event of the failure of Lessee to pay any rental due hereunder, it shall be the duty of Lessor to extend to Lessee fifteen (15) days' written notice of such failure, and if upon termination of said fifteen (15) days' notice period, payments have not been fully paid, then Lessee shall be in default hereunder and Lessor is to have the rights hereinafter described.

Section 27.3 Insolvency. If the Lessee shall become bankrupt or insolvent, or file any debtor's proceedings, or take a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization (unless the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days of filing) or for appointment of a receiver or trustee of all or a portion of Lessee's property, or if Lessee makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or petitions for or enters into an arrangement, or suffer this lease to be taken under any writ of execution, Lessee shall be in default hereunder, and Lessor will have the rights hereinafter described.
Section 27.4 Abandonment. If Lessee shall abandon Premises for any reason other than those delineated in Sections 5.8 and 10, Lessee shall be in default hereunder, and Lessor shall have the rights hereinafter described.
Section 27.5 Remedies. Upon default, Lessor shall have the immediate right of re-entry into and upon said Premises, or any part thereof, and repossess the same of Lessor's former estate, and expel said Lessee and those claiming by, through and under Lessee without being deemed guilty of trespass, or becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby, and without prejudice to any remedy which might otherwise be used, for arrearage of rent or preceding breach of covenant.
Should Lessor elect to re-enter, as hereinabove provided, or should they take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided by law, Lessor may either terminate this lease or may, from time to time without terminating this lease, make such alterations and repairs as may be necessary in order to relet the Premises, and relet said Premises, or any part thereof, for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the term of this lease) at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Lessor in his reasonable discretion may deem advisable; upon each such reletting all rentals received by the Lessor shall be applied first to the payment of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Lessee to Lessor; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such reletting, including brokerage fees and attorney fees and costs of such alterations and repairs; third, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Lessor and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder with the overplus to be available to pay Lessee's mortgages and encumbrances against the leased Premises.

Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Lessor may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this lease for such previous breach. Should Lessor at any time terminate this lease for any breach, in addition to any other remedies that Lessor may have, it may recover from Lessee all damages it may incur by reason of such breach, including the cost of recovering the leased Premises, reasonable attorney fees, and including the worth at the time of such termination of the excess, if any, of the amount or rent and charges equivalent to rent reserved in this lease for the remainder of the stated term over the then reasonable rental value of the leased Premises for the remainder of the stated term, all of which amounts shall be immediately due and payable from Lessee to Lessor.

The subsequent acceptance of rent hereunder by Lessor shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Lessee of any term, covenant, or condition of this lease, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent. No covenant, term or condition of this lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Lessor, unless such waiver be in writing by Lessor or Lessee.
