     NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which and the legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties, and the parties intending to be legally bound hereunder, the parties agree as follows:
          (i) The Comdisco Lease and the Lease Amendment shall and are hereby amended and restated in their entirety by this Lease effective as of the Effective Date, and the Comdisco Lease and Lease Amendment shall be null and void from and after the Effective Date.
          (ii) Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, those certain premises located at 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, in the Borough of Carlstadt, County of Bergen, and State of New Jersey (also designated by the Carlstadt Tax Assessor as Block 131, Lot 9), upon which is currently constructed, inter alia, a building containing approximately 301,827 square feet of space (consisting of 259,908 square feet of ground floor area and 00,000 xxxxxx xxxx xx xxxxxx xxxxx/xxxxxxxxx xxxx) (the “Building”) and the exclusive right to 378 parking spaces (the entire lot with all improvements thereon, subject to the existing easement for ingress and egress in common with adjacent premised known as 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx are hereinafter referred to as the “Demised Premises”), all as more particularly depicted on Schedule “A” annexed hereto.
          TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the premises for a term of twenty (20) years (the “Initial Term”) which commenced on October 1, 2000 (the “Commencement Date”), and which shall end on September 30, 2020 (the “Termination Date”). The period from the Commencement Date through the final date of the Initial Term as extended by the first and/or second renewal options under Section 40 of this Lease is hereinafter referred to as the “Term.”
          IN CONSIDERATION OF THE FOREGOING, and of the mutual promises, agreements, conditions, covenants and terms herein set forth, the Landlord and the Tenant further covenant and agree as follows:
     1. Commencement Date of Term: The term hereof commenced on October 1, 2000 (the “Commencement Date”).
     2. Rent:
          2.1 Fixed Rent:
               (a) The Fixed Rent payable to Landlord from the Commencement Date hereof through September 30, 2015 is unchanged from the Existing Lease and is set forth at Schedule “C”. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Tenant has paid all such Fixed Rent through and including September 30, 2009.
               (b) From and after the October 1, 2015, and for the balance of the Initial Term, the Tenant hereby agrees to pay to the Landlord Fixed Rent for the Premises as set forth on Schedule “C-1”.

- 6 -

 

          All such Fixed Rent shall be in cash or check, lawful money of the United States of America, payable in monthly installments on the first day of each and every month, in advance, throughout the term of this Lease. The Fixed Rent shall be paid at the office of the Landlord set forth above on the first page of this Lease, or at such other place as may hereafter be designated by the Landlord. Fixed Rent shall be paid to the Landlord without notice or demand and without deduction, set-off or other charge, except as may otherwise be provided for herein. The total aggregate Fixed Rent for the Demised Premises over the portion of the Initial Term from the Effective Date to the Termination Date is. The parking spaces are being provided to Tenant at no additional charge.
          2.2 Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, any sums due the Tenant from the Landlord under any of the provisions of this Lease, or arising from or out of the Landlord’s failure to comply with, or perform any of the terms of this Lease, shall in all cases be enforced by Tenant by means other than deduction from Fixed Rent or Additional Rent (Fixed Rent and Additional Rent are referred to collectively in this Lease as “Rent”). No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than any payment of Fixed Rent or Additional Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated such Rent then due and payable.
          2.3 If checks issued by Tenant shall be dishonored a late charge shall apply and if checks are dishonored on two (2) or more occasions within any six (6) month period, Landlord may require, by giving written notice to Tenant that all future Rent payments are to be made by cash, cashier’s check, or money order, and that the delivery of Tenant’s personal or corporate check will no longer constitute a payment of Rent as provided in this Lease. Any acceptance of personal or corporate check thereafter by Landlord shall not be construed as a subsequent waiver of said rights except as to the check so accepted.
          2.4 If any installment of Rent or any sum due from Tenant, under this or any other agreement between Landlord and Tenant, shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord’s designee from Tenant within ten (10) days after said amount is due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the amount past due, plus any reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s failure to pay Rent and/or other charge when due hereunder. Acceptance of such late charge by the Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder, unless accompanied by the applicable installment of rent or other sum due. The aforesaid late charge may be repeated each month that the same Rent or charge remains unpaid.
     3. Additional Rent.
          3.1 Tenant shall be responsible to pay as Additional Rent hereunder all taxes, costs, charges, maintenance, and operational expenses associated with the Demised Premises together with all interest and penalties that may accrue thereon in the event of the Tenant’s failure to pay such amounts, and all damages, costs and expenses which the Landlord may incur by reason of any default of the Tenant or failure on the Tenant’s part to comply with the terms of this Lease, except those specifically allocated to Landlord under Article 5 of this Lease. Therefore, and without limitation, commencing at the Effective Date, Tenant shall continue to

- 7 -

 

pay to Landlord One Hundred percent (100%) of the total costs of the following items, herein called “Additional Rent”:
               A. All real estate taxes on the land, as more fully described on Schedule “B” attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Land”), site improvements and the Building comprising the Demised Premises. Said real estate taxes shall include all real estate taxes and assessments that are levied upon and/or assessed against the Demised Premises, including any taxes which may be levied on rents, except that as to assessments, Landlord shall elect to pay same over the longest period permitted by law and only the current year’s installment, including interest, shall be added into Tenant’s calculation. In addition, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable costs incurred in appealing taxes and/or assessments on Demised Premises, including reasonable legal fees, expert witness fees and other proper costs but Tenant will not be liable to pay a reimbursement in excess of any actual tax savings resulting from such an appeal. If any such appeal is successful, any recovery net of such expenses shall be credited (proportionately) to Tenant’s obligation hereunder. Except during the final three (3) years of the then Term, Tenant shall have the right to appeal tax assessments on the Demised Premises at Tenant’s sole cost and expense; and if any such tax appeal is unsuccessful or if it results in an increase in real estate taxes, Tenant shall bear all such costs, attorneys fees and tax increases during the Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing taxes shall specifically exclude income taxes assessed against the Landlord, franchise taxes, estate taxes, sales taxes, corporate income taxes, capital stock taxes, employment benefit taxes, social security taxes, worker’s compensation taxes, capital levy, succession, inheritance, or transfer taxes payable by the Landlord, corporate franchises, capital stock, loans and bonus taxes imposed upon any owner of the Land, any late fees, penalties or interest with respect to the payment of any such taxes, and any income, profits or revenue tax. Landlord hereby agrees to pay all such taxes so as to include and obtain any applicable discount for early payment.
               B. All premiums and deductible costs paid by Landlord for the Demised Premises only associated with Insurance (as described in Articles 11.3 and 11.4 below).
               C. All costs incurred by Landlord pursuant to this Lease to maintain, repair and replace exterior walls, structural steel, foundations, roof, landscaped areas, parking and loading areas including driveways, sidewalks and curbs (including snow and ice removal from parking and exterior loading areas and sidewalks) and site drainage facilities and other areas within the Land which are not the responsibility of Tenant to maintain, repair and replace under this Lease. There shall also be included any parking charges, utilities surcharges, COAH development fees or any other costs levied, assessed or imposed by, or at the direction of, or resulting from statutes or regulations, or interpretations thereof, promulgated by any governmental authority in connection with the expansion, renovation, use or occupancy of the Demised Premises or the Parking Lot by or on behalf of Tenant (as defined in Article 43 below) from and after the Effective Date. Any and all such replacement costs shall be amortized over the useful economic life of such improvements.
               D. On or about the Effective Date, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a statement of the anticipated monthly Additional Rent for the period between the Effective Date, and the following December 31, and Tenant shall pay this Additional Rent on a monthly basis concurrently with the payment of the Fixed Rent. Tenant shall continue to make said monthly

- 8 -

 

payments until notified by Landlord of a change thereof. By March 1 of each calendar year (commencing in 2010), Landlord shall use its best efforts to give Tenant a statement showing the total Additional Rent for the Demised Premises for the prior calendar year (an “Operating Expense Statement”). Landlord shall also submit to Tenant by separate invoice not less often than annually a statement documenting any unanticipated charges relating to the repair of the common driveway area shared with 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx, and the charges relating to the Private Communications Ductbank (described in Section 32.2 below), and Tenant shall pay its proportionate share thereof within thirty (30) days after presentation thereof.
               E. In the event the total of the monthly payments which Tenant has made for the prior calendar year be less than the Tenant’s actual share of such Additional Rent, then Tenant shall pay the difference in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after receipt of such statement from Landlord and shall concurrently pay the difference between the total previous monthly payments made in the then calendar year and the total of monthly payments calculated as Additional Rent based on the prior year’s experience. Any overpayment by Tenant shall be credited towards the Fixed Rent and/or Additional Rent next coming due. The actual Additional Rent for the prior year shall be used for purposes of calculating the anticipated monthly Additional Rent for the then current year with actual determination of such Additional Rent after each calendar year as above provided. Even though the term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Demised Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant’s share of said Additional Rent for the year in which this Lease terminates, Tenant shall pay any increase due over the estimated Additional Rent previously paid within thirty (30) days after demand, and, conversely, any overpayment made shall be immediately rebated by Landlord to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such notice to Tenant, and this provision shall survive termination for said purpose. Failure of Landlord to submit Operating Expense Statements to Tenant as called for herein within six (6) months after the end of any applicable lease year or one (1) year from the expiration of the Initial Term, or any renewal term, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be a waiver of Tenant’s requirement to pay sums as herein provided. In addition, Tenant shall not be responsible or liable for the payment of any amount which should have been included in an Operating Expense Statement as Additional Rent for a particular calendar year that was not so included. The term “lease year” as used throughout this Lease shall mean: (a) as to the period from January 1, 2009 through September 30, 2015, a calendar year, i.e. January 1 to December 31 of each calendar year; and (b) as to the period from October 1, 2015 through the balance of the Initial Term and through each of the renewal option terms, if exercised, a period from October 1 to September 30 of the following calendar year.
               F. Each Operating Expense Statement shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant unless, within one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of such Operating Expense Statement, Tenant shall notify Landlord that it disputes the correctness of the Operating Expense Statement, specifying the particular respects in which said Operating Expense Statement is claimed to be incorrect. Tenant, or an independent certified public accountant who is hired by Tenant on a non-contingency fee basis and who offers a full range of accounting services, shall have the right, during regular business hours, to review Landlord’s invoices relating to the disputed items of operating expenses for the immediately preceding lease year; or at Landlord’s sole discretion and in lieu of such review, Landlord will provide Tenant with an audited statement. Tenant shall (and shall cause its employees, agents and consultants to) keep the results of any such review or audited statement strictly confidential. If such review or audited statement shows that the estimated payments by Tenant on account of operating

- 9 -

 

expenses exceeded the amounts to which Landlord is entitled hereunder for the immediately preceding lease year, Landlord shall credit or refund the amount of such excess as provided herein. In addition, if the Operating Expense Statement overstated the actual operating expenses by five percent (5%) or more, then Landlord shall pay to Tenant the reasonable and necessary fees and costs associated with such audit. If Tenant shall dispute an Operating Expense Statement, pending the determination of such dispute, Tenant shall pay the estimated payments claimed by Landlord to be due from Tenant on account of operating expenses in accordance with the applicable Operating Expense Statement, without prejudice to Tenant’s position. All costs and expenses of such review or audited statement shall be paid by Tenant except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Section 3.1 F. If Tenant does not notify Landlord in writing of any objection to any Operating Expense Statement within one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt thereof, then Tenant shall be deemed to have waived such objection.
          3.2 Anything in Section 3.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, Additional Rent shall not include: (i) depreciation on the Building or the parking facilities or equipment therein; (ii) salaries of employees and executives above the grade of building manager; (iii) real estate broker’s and/or leasing commissions to agents of Landlord or to other persons or brokers; (iv) amounts received by Landlord through proceeds of insurance to the extent the proceeds are compensation for expenses which were previously included in Additional Rent hereunder; (v) cost of repairs incurred by reason of fire or other casualty to the extent to which Landlord is compensated therefor through proceeds of insurance or would be compensated by any insurance required to be maintained by Landlord hereunder, or caused by the exercise of the right of eminent domain (except for the amount of deductibles); (vi) advertising and promotional expenditures; (vii) legal and auditing fees, other than legal and auditing fees reasonably incurred in connection with the maintenance and operation of the Building or in connection with the preparation of statements required pursuant to additional rent or lease escalation provisions or legal fees payable by Tenant after a default as expressly provided in this Lease; (viii) legal fees for the negotiation or enforcement of this Lease, or in connection with any debt or equity financing or sale of the Demised Premises; (ix) expenses resulting from any violations by the Landlord of the terms of this Lease; (x) costs of performing any clean-up relating to environmental conditions or affecting the Building or Demised Premises prior to the Commencement Date or as otherwise provided for herein; (xi) depreciation or amortization of any improvements or equipment; (xii) principal or interest payments on loans secured by mortgages on the Building or on the Demised Premises; (xiv) any costs for services rendered by any person or entity related to or affiliated with Landlord which is in excess of commercially reasonable rates for such services; (xiv) penalties, interest and bad debts; and (xv) any obligations under any mortgage, ground lease or other debt affecting the Demised Premises.
     4. Repairs and Maintenance Obligations of Tenant.
          4.1 The Tenant has had possession and control of the Demised Premises since the Commencement Date, has examined the Demised Premises and has entered into this Lease without any representation on the part of the Landlord as to the present or future condition thereof, except as may be expressly set forth herein, and has accepted the Demised Premises in “as is” condition.

After an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) with respect to making such repairs or replacements, the Landlord may, but shall not be required to, make such repairs and replacements for the Tenant’s account, and the expense thereof shall constitute and be collectible as Additional Rent, payable within thirty (30) days of written demand; provided that Landlord’s right hereunder shall only be exercised (a) upon a termination of the Term; or (b) if the condition threatens the health or safety of persons or significant damage to property; or (c) if the condition materially and adversely affects the appearance or function of the industrial park within which the Demised Premises are located in the reasonable judgment of the Landlord; or (d) if the conditions violate another provision of this Lease, such as, but not limited to, violations of law.
          4.4 The Tenant shall maintain all portions of the Demised Premises in a clean and orderly condition, free of dirt, rubbish, and unlawful obstructions.
          4.5 The Landlord shall not be required to furnish any services or facilities or to make any repair or alteration in or to the Demised Premises, except as hereinbefore or hereinafter set forth.

Nothing in this section is intended to nor shall it impose upon Tenant any obligation to any third party which is not imposed under applicable law without reference to this Lease and no third party shall be construed as a third party beneficiary of this provision of this Lease
          4.8 Anything in this Article 4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the foregoing provisions shall not apply to any environmental matters, which are specifically addressed in Article 28 below.
     5. Repairs and Maintenance Obligations of Landlord:
          5.1 Landlord shall make all repairs, replacements, alterations or renewals and perform all maintenance to the following areas or parts of the Demised Premises at Tenant’s expense, charged as Additional Rent under Section 3.1(c) of this Lease: (a) exterior walls, structural steel, foundations, roof, landscaped areas, parking and loading areas, sidewalks and curbs, and site drainage facilities, including, without limitation, snow and ice removal from parking, loading, and sidewalk areas, (b) the common driveway area shared with 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx (which is also owned by Landlord), and (c) the Private Communications Ductbank (described in Section 32.2 below).

The foregoing is not intended to eliminate or modify Tenant’s maintenance obligations as provided for under Section 4 of this Lease.
          5.2 Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease for any failure to make such repairs or to perform any maintenance unless Landlord shall fail to cure said default within thirty (30) days after notice of said default by Tenant, or in the case of a default not susceptible of a cure within thirty (30) days, if Landlord shall fail to commence a cure within thirty (30) days and diligently complete such cure within a reasonable time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant’s personnel cannot reasonably perform their functions in the Demised Premises as a result of Landlord’s default which materially and adversely impairs the use of the Demised Premises (such being a “Shut-Down Condition”), Tenant may serve written notice upon the Landlord of such Shut-Down Condition. Landlord shall have one (1) business day to commence necessary repairs and to diligently prosecute such repairs to a conclusion. If Landlord defaults in its obligation, Tenant shall have the self-help rights afforded under Section 13.1. Further, in the event a Shut-Down Condition persists for more than thirty (30) days, Fixed Rent and Additional Rent shall xxxxx until the Shut-Down Condition has been remedied so as to permit Tenant’s personnel to reasonably perform their functions in the Demised Premises.
          5.3 Tenant shall promptly report in writing to Landlord any defective condition known to Tenant which Landlord is required to repair.

          6.2 In the event the Demised Premises are connected to public utilities by means of lines passing through the Demised Premises and outside of the Building and electrical apparatus maintained by Tenant, it shall be the Landlord’s responsibility to maintain said lines as at the expense of Tenant, billed as Additional Rent under Section 3 of this Lease provided however that Landlord’s responsibility shall not extend further than to repair any breaks or obstructions in said lines with reasonable dispatch after being advised of same, and to refrain from any negligent or willful action to cause any such break or obstruction. Tenant’s repair responsibility in respect to any such lines shall be limited to their entry into the Building at the Demised Premises and above ground connections to Tenant’s fixtures and equipment. In no event shall Landlord be responsible for any interruption of service of any utility to the Demised Premises occurring by reason of any act or condition unless caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant’s personnel cannot reasonably perform their functions in the Demised Premises as a result of a Shut-Down Condition, Tenant may serve written notice upon the Landlord of such Shut-Down Condition. Landlord shall have one (1) business day to commence necessary repairs and to diligently prosecute such repairs to a conclusion. If Landlord defaults in its obligation, Tenant shall have the self-help rights afforded under Section 13.1.

The Landlord and its mortgagee shall be named loss payee under any such policy, as their respective interests may appear, and all coverages shall comply with the requirements of Landlord’s mortgagee.
          11.4 The Landlord shall carry general public liability insurance, in addition to Tenant’s general public liability insurance requirement as outlined in Article 11.2, naming Landlord as the insured and Tenant as additional insured.

If Tenant finds that the deductibles under such policies are not at commercially reasonable levels, Tenant may notify the Landlord, and if the parties are unable to agree on a reasonable deductible, then subject to requirements of Landlord’s Mortgagee, the issue will be resolved by arbitration before a qualified insurance professional mutually selected by the parties.

The foregoing waiver shall be effective whether or not the waiving party actually obtains and maintains the insurance which such waiving party is required to obtain and maintain pursuant to this Lease (or any substitute therefor). Landlord and Tenant shall, upon obtaining the policies of insurance which they are required to maintain hereunder, give notice to their respective insurance carrier or carriers that the foregoing mutual waiver of subrogation is contained in this Lease. In addition, Tenant and Landlord shall obtain waivers of subrogation for the benefit of one another, from any company issuing any policy of insurance obtained by either of them pursuant to the terms of this Lease.

          12.1 Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Landlord shall not be liable for any personal injury to any person, including the Tenant or to its officers, agents, employees, contractors or invitees or for any damage to any property of any person, including the Tenant, whether from action of the elements, or acts of negligence of or occupants of adjacent properties, except if caused by or resulting from the Landlord’s willful malfeasance or negligent acts.
          12.2 The term “Landlord” as used in this Lease shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or owners at the time in question of the Demised Premises and in the event of any transfer or transfers of the title to the Demised Premises, the then grantor shall be automatically freed and relieved from and after the date of such conveyance or transfer of all liability for the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease to be performed, provided that any funds then in the hands of such grantor, in which Tenant has an interest, shall be delivered to the grantee and that such grantee assumes all obligations of grantor as the “Landlord” hereunder, including, without limitation, any liability for the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease for the period prior to any such transfer of title.

- 20 -

 

          12.3 Tenant agrees that it shall look solely to Landlord’s interest in the Demised Premises (including all of Landlord’s rights to insurance and condemnation proceeds and all Rent and income from Demised Premises) and not to Landlord for the collection of any judgment (or other judicial process) against the Landlord or any predecessor Landlord in the event of any default or breach by Landlord with respect to any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be observed and/or performed by Landlord, and no other assets of Landlord or any predecessor Landlord shall be subject to levy, execution or other procedures for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies.

          13.1 Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within a reasonable time, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform such obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord’s obligation 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 30-day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, in no event shall Tenant have the right to terminate this Lease as a result of Landlord’s default, and Tenant’s remedies shall be limited to damages and/or an injunction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in emergency circumstances where the failure to repair or replace would result in a Shut-Down Condition (defined at Section 5.2) and it is impracticable to give Notice to the Landlord and permit Landlord to carry out the repair pursuant to Section 5.2, then Tenant shall have the right to perform Landlord’s obligations and be reimbursed for the reasonable cost thereof, if applicable, as a common expense or, otherwise at Landlord’s sole expense, so long as Tenant provides Landlord with notice thereof promptly after performing such obligations.
     14. Event of Default by Tenant:

In no event shall the Landlord be liable in any respect for failure to relet the Demised Premises or in the event of such reletting, for failure to collect the rent thereunder provided that Landlord has complied with its mitigation obligations as aforesaid. Any sums received by the Landlord on a reletting for any monthly installment of rent in excess of the rent reserved in this Lease shall belong to Landlord;

               (b) Delinquent Fixed Rent and Additional Rent shall bear interest at the lower rate of either twelve percent (12%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law, from the date on which it is due until the date on which it is paid.

               (c) Tenant hereby expressly waives the service of notice of intention to re-enter as provided for in any statute and also waives any and all rights or equity of redemption in case the Tenant shall be dispossessed by a Court. The terms “enter,” and “re-enter,” “entry,” or “re-entry,” as used in this Lease, are not restricted to their technical legal meaning.
               (d) the termination of this Lease shall not in any circumstance operate to relieve the Tenant from liability for performance of all of its obligations hereunder. Upon any such termination of this Lease, Tenant covenants that it will quit and surrender the premises and deliver possession thereof to Landlord.
          14.3 No waiver by the Landlord of any Event of Default by Tenant shall constitute or be construed as a waiver of any other or future Event of Default.

No waiver by either party shall be effective unless in writing.
          14.4 The acceptance by Landlord of rent or other charges from Tenant (in whole or in part) after any Event of Default, even though known to Landlord, shall not constitute a waiver of the default/breach, unless the Event of Default is cured in full. The acceptance by Landlord of rent or other charges from Tenant (in whole or in part) shall not be deemed an accord and satisfaction in respect of any claims of Landlord against Tenant, notwithstanding the payment check or accompanying letter may bear a legend or endorsement to the contrary. The acceptance of payment as above shall not affect any notice of default or any action or proceedings or judgment or order taken in consequence of the default.
          14.5 In the event of (a) the termination of this Lease under the provisions of Article 14 hereof, (b) the re-entry into the Demised Premises by Landlord under the provisions of this Article 14, or (c) the termination of this Lease (or re-entry) by or under any summary dispossess or other proceeding or action or any provision of law by reason of default hereunder on the part of Tenant, Landlord shall be entitled to retain all moneys, if any, paid by Tenant to Landlord, whether as advance rent, security or otherwise, but such moneys shall be credited by Landlord against any rent due from Tenant at the time of such termination or re-reentry, or at Landlord’s option, against any damages payable by Tenant under this Lease or pursuant to law.
          14.6 In the event of any termination of this Lease under the provisions of Article 14 or in the event that Landlord shall re-enter the premises lawfully or in the event of the termination of this Lease (or of re-entry) by or under any summary dispossess or other proceeding or action or any provision of law, Tenant will pay to Landlord as damages, at the sole election of Landlord, either:

               (a) a sum which at the time of such termination of this Lease or at the time of any such re-entry by Landlord, as the case may be, is equal to the excess, if any, between: (i) the aggregate of all Rent which would have been payable hereunder by Tenant had this Lease not so terminated for the period commencing with such earlier termination of this Lease or the date of any such re-entry, as the case may be, and ending with the date set for the expiration of the full term hereby granted, over (ii) the aggregate of all rent of the Demised Premises for the same period based upon the then local market rental value of the Demised Premises as determined by taking into account any market concessions such as tenant improvements, free rent, construction allowances, rent abatement, moving allowances and other rental concessions, financial strength of the tenant, location in the building, and comparable renewal leases (on the bases of factors such as, but not limited to, size and location of space and the term of the lease), if any, recently executed for space in other buildings in the Bergen County, New Jersey, which are comparable to the Building in reputation, quality, age, size, location and quality of services provided (the foregoing factors not being exclusive in identifying comparable buildings). Landlord shall also be entitled to recover the reasonable value of restoring the Demised Premises and reletting same (including brokers commissions) as an element of damage, discounted to present value at the prime rate of interest announced as of the Event of Default in The Wall Street Journal; or
               (b) sums equal to the aggregate of all Rent which would have been payable by Tenant had this Lease not so terminated, or had Landlord not so re-entered the Demised Premises, payable on a monthly basis on the due dates specified for payment of Fixed Rent under this Lease following such termination of such re-entry and until the date hereinbefore set for the expiration of the full Term hereby granted; provided, however, that if Landlord shall re-let all or part of the Demised Premises for all or any part of said period, Landlord shall credit Tenant with the net rents received by Landlord from such re-letting, such net rents to be determined by first deducting from the gross rents as and when received by Landlord all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in terminating this Lease and re-entering the Demised Premises and of securing possession thereof, as well as the reasonable expenses of re-letting, including altering and preparing the Demised Premises for new tenants, brokers’ commissions and all other similar or dissimilar expenses properly chargeable against the Demised Premises and the rental therefrom in connection with such re-letting, it being understood that any such re-letting may be for a period equal to or shorter or longer than the remaining Term of this Lease; provided, further, that (i) in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess of such net rents over the sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, (ii) in no event shall Tenant be entitled in any suit for the collection of damages pursuant to this subsection (b) to a credit in respect of any net rents from a re-letting except to the extent that such net rents are actually received by Landlord prior to the commencement of such suit, and (iii) if the Demised Premises or any part thereof should be re-let in combination with other space, then proper apportionment on a square foot area basis shall be made of the rent received from such re-letting and of the expenses of re-letting. Suit or suits for the recovery of such damages, or any installments thereof, may be brought by Landlord from time to time at its election, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require Landlord to postpone suit until the date when the term of this Lease would have expired if it had not been terminated under the provisions of Article 14, or under any provision of law, or had Landlord not re-entered the Demised Premises.

- 24 -

 

               Nothing herein contained shall be construed as limiting or precluding the recovery by Landlord against Tenant of any sums or damages to which, in addition to the damages particularly provided above, Landlord may lawfully be entitled by reason of any default hereunder on the part of Tenant.
          14.7 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, upon an Event of Default hereunder, or in the event of a breach or threatened breach on the part of Tenant or Landlord with respect to any of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions or conditions on the part of or on behalf of such party to be kept, observed or performed, both parties shall also have the right of specific performance and/or injunction. The specified remedies to which either party may resort hereunder are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies or means of redress to which either may lawfully be entitled at any time, and either party may invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity as if specific remedies were not herein provided for, so long as such remedies have not been waived by the terms of this Lease.
     15. Access to Premises:
          15.1 Landlord and its representatives may enter the Demised Premises during normal business hours upon not less than forty-eight (48) hours prior notice (except in case of emergency, when no prior notice shall be required) for the purpose of inspecting the same and, if Landlord so elects, but without any obligation so to do, for the purpose of making any necessary repairs to the Demised Premises and performing any work therein. Landlord will exercise its rights hereunder in a commercially reasonable manner so as to minimize interference with Tenant’s business operations, but nothing herein shall require the Landlord to schedule all work during non-business hours and to thereby incur overtime or similar extra charges. Landlord shall be prohibited from entering any secured or protected areas within the Demised Premises without the prior written consent of Tenant.
          15.2 Landlord may enter and exhibit the Demised Premises during usual business hours upon not less than forty-eight (48) hours prior notice for Landlord’s purposes, including but not limited to, inspecting the Demised Premises or showing the Demised Premises to prospective mortgagees, purchasers, lessees or brokers. During the final twelve (12) months of the term, Landlord may also display the usual “To Let” or similar signs on the portions of the Land (but excluding the Demised Premises).
          15.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Article 15, Tenant may designate certain portions of the Demised Premises, including but not limited Tenant’s computer and data rooms, as “Protected Areas.” Landlord recognizes that the Protected Areas are to be secured areas and Landlord shall have no access thereto without being accompanied by a designated representative of Tenant.
          15.4 Tenant shall have access to the Demised Premises 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365/366 days a year.
     16. Hold Harmless:
          16.1 Subject to the provisions of Section 11.9 above, Tenant shall keep, save

- 25 -

 

and hold Landlord harmless and free from all liability, penalties, losses, damages, costs, expenses, causes of action, claims and/or judgments to third parties arising by reason of any injury or damage to any person or persons, or property, of any kind whatsoever, and to whomsoever belonging, from any cause or causes whatsoever and whether arising from or by reason of any existing or future condition, default, matter, or thing in or about the Demised Premises, from and after the Commencement Date, including, without limitation, damage from water and/or steam seepage or leakage in or into the Demised Premises, except if caused by Landlord’s negligent or intentional acts or omissions.
          16.2 Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord for damages to goods, equipment, improvements, wares, and merchandise in, upon or about the Demised Premises, the Building, the Land and any common areas and for injuries to Tenant, its agents or third persons in or about the Demised Premises, the Building, the Land and any common area from any cause arising at any time, except if caused by Landlord’s negligent or intentional acts or omissions.
          16.3 Subject to the provisions of Section 11.9 above, Tenant agrees that if Landlord is involuntarily made a party defendant to any litigation concerning this Lease or the Demised Premises relating to any alleged act or omission of Tenant, then Tenant shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Landlord from all liability, and reasonable costs and expenses by reason thereof. Similarly, Landlord agrees that if Tenant is involuntarily made a party defendant to any litigation concerning this Lease or the Demised Premises relating to any alleged act or omission of Landlord, then Landlord shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Tenant from all liability, and reasonable costs and expenses by reason thereof.
          16.4 Anything in this Article 16 to the contrary notwithstanding, the foregoing indemnifications in this Article 16 shall in NO EVENT apply to any environmental matters. Any Tenant indemnification with respect to environmental matters is set forth in Section 28.4, and any Landlord indemnification with respect to environmental matters is set forth in Section 28.11.
     17. Assignment or Sublease:
          17.1 Tenant shall neither voluntarily, nor by operation of law, assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or encumber this Lease or any interest therein, and shall not sublet the said Demised Premises or any part thereof, or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto, or allow any other person (the employees, agents, servants and invitees of Tenant excepted) to occupy or use the said Demised Premises, or any portion thereof, without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord. A consent to one assignment, subletting, occupation or use by any other person shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person. Consent to any such assignment or subletting shall in no way relieve Tenant of any liability under this Lease. Any such assignment or subletting without such consent shall be void, and shall, at the option of the Landlord, constitute a default under the terms of this Lease. Landlord shall not be obligated to consider and respond to any request for consent under this paragraph unless such request is in writing, contains a full explanation of the proposal and provides sufficient information about the financial standing and experience of the proposed assignee or subtenant for Landlord to make an informed judgment. Tenant acknowledges that its sole remedy with respect to any assertion that Landlord’s failure to timely consent to any assignment or sublet is unreasonable shall be the remedy of specific

- 26 -

 

performance and Tenant shall have no damage claim or further claim of any nature or cause of action against Landlord as a result of Landlord’s actions in refusing to timely consent, except a claim for legal fees and costs as provided in Section 51.1 below. In the event of any approved assignment or sublease, all rents or other payments received by Tenant in excess of the payments due from Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease may be retained by Tenant. On demand, any assignee or subtenant shall make payments directly to Landlord without, however, creating a direct Landlord-Tenant relation between them or releasing Tenant under this Lease. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay consent to an assignment or sublease, providing that Landlord determines in its reasonable discretion that such sublease or assignment does not lessen Landlord’s security, that the use of the Demised Premises will remain as the Permitted Use; that the proposed assignee or sublessee is financially responsible and is sufficiently experienced to operate the business from the Demised Premises successfully and in a manner which shall not detract from the value of the Demised Premises, that the proposed transaction does not present any environmental concerns.
          17.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing in Section 17.1, no Landlord consent shall be required: (a) for subleases or assignments to affiliates or subsidiaries of the Tenant or becomes a publicly traded entity on a United States stock exchange, provided that Tenant shall provide Landlord with thirty (30) days advanced notice with sufficient information to confirm that: (i) there shall be no change in the permitted use of the Demised Premises, (ii) Tenant shall remain liable jointly and severally with the assignee/subleasee for payment and performance of all Tenant obligations under this Lease, (iii) the proposed assignment/sublease shall not impair Landlord’s security, and (iv) the proposed assignee or subtenant shall not introduce any new Hazardous Substances onto Demised Premises in violation of applicable laws which is inconsistent with the existing operations of Tenant at the Demised Premises; (b) for any transfer or assignment to any successor to Tenant by purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization; and (c) if Tenant becomes a publicly traded entity on a United States stock exchange.
     18. Condemnation:
          18.1 This Lease and the term hereof shall terminate: (a) if the entire Demised Premises shall be taken by condemnation, or (b) at the option of Tenant (exercisable by notice given to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the date of any such taking), if a material part of the Demised Premises shall be taken in any condemnation proceeding(s); or (c) at the option of Landlord (exercisable by notice given to the Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of taking) if more than fifteen percent (15%) of the Demised Premises or the Building or the Land shall be taken by condemnation. A taking of a “material part” of the Demised Premises shall mean the condemnation of so much of the Demised Premises (including any exclusive parking) as shall materially and adversely interfere with Tenant’s operations in the Demised Premises; provided, however, that in the event of any taking of any exclusive parking, the Landlord shall use its best efforts to provide alternative parking of an equal or greater size within the “Industrial Park” in which the Building and the building at 000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx currently occupied by Tenant, are located in which case this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to such remaining portion to the extent that such alternative parking is provided.
          18.2 Upon the termination of this Lease in accordance with this Article, rents shall be adjusted as of such termination. The entire condemnation award shall be the sole and

- 27 -

 

exclusive property of Landlord and shall be payable solely to Landlord except any allocations or awards for Tenant’s trade fixtures and moving expenses. Tenant shall not make any claim in any condemnation proceeding for the value of the unexpired portion of the Lease or the term hereof, and waives all right thereto.
          18.3 In the event that any portion of the Demised Premises is taken in condemnation and if this Lease is not terminated, then this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to such remaining portion, except that from and after the effective date of any such taking, Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate reduction in the Fixed and Additional Rent required to be paid hereunder in accordance with any reduction in square foot area of the Demised Premises caused by such taking. In the event that any portion of Tenant’s exclusive parking is taken in condemnation and if this Lease is not terminated, then this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to such remaining portion.
               Landlord shall promptly restore the portion of the Demised Premises remaining after such taking to a complete architectural unit. Any restoration by Landlord shall be limited to the basic building structure as demised by Landlord to Tenant as of the Commencement Date, and Tenant shall have such reasonable time thereof to restore the interior of the Demised Premises to an operational condition with an accompanying abatement of rent during such time. Landlord shall have the right to install, maintain and alter or relocate within the Demised Premises any gas, water, electric or sewer lines which may be necessary provided that Tenant’s facilities are not materially or adversely affected.
          18.4 In the event this Lease is not terminated as aforesaid and Landlord does not restore the Demised Premises within a period of ninety (90) business days after the date of taking, then and in that event, Tenant may, as its sole remedy, have the right to terminate this Lease by notice in writing delivered to Landlord prior to completion of such restoration.
     19. Fire or Casualty Loss:
          19.1 If all or part of the Demised Premises is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, this Lease and all of its terms, covenants and conditions shall, subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth, continue in full force and effect, as follows:
               A. In the event that the damage to the Demised Premises is so extensive as to amount practically to the total destruction of the Demised Premises and Landlord within a reasonable time after such damage shall not elect to rebuild, then and in that event, this Lease shall cease and the rent shall be apportioned to the time of the destruction. For the purposes of this paragraph, damage to fifteen percent (15%) or more of the Demised Premises shall be deemed total destruction.
               B. In the event that the Demised Premises is damaged, but not so destroyed (as set forth in Paragraph A immediately above) as to terminate the Lease, or Landlord elects to rebuild as provided for in Paragraph A above, then, provided that such loss is sufficiently insured and that all of the proceeds of said insurance coverage are made available to the Landlord by any mortgagee whose interest may be superior to the Landlord; and further provided that the term of this Lease shall have at least two (2) years to run, and that applicable

- 28 -

 

laws shall permit, then, and in those events, the Landlord shall repair and rebuild the Demised Premises with reasonable diligence. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) in the event there is less than two (2) years of the Lease Term remaining, or (ii) in the event Landlord’s mortgagee should require that the insurance proceeds payable as a result of a casualty be applied to the payment of the mortgage debt and Landlord does not promptly commit to restore with Landlord’s funds, or (iii) in the event of any material uninsured loss to the Building and Landlord does not promptly commit to restore with Landlord’s funds, or (iv) if the written estimate states that the Demised Premises cannot be restored to substantially the condition that existed prior to the casualty within one hundred eighty (180) days of the casualty, then either Landlord or Tenant may, at their option, terminate this Lease by notifying the other party in writing of such termination within ninety (90) days after the date of such casualty. Within sixty (60) days of such casualty, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether the Demised Premises cannot be restored to the condition that existed prior to the casualty within one hundred eighty (180) days of the casualty.
          19.2 To the extent that the loss or destruction of the Demised Premises substantially interferes with all or a portion of Tenant’s operations at the Demised Premises, thus requiring the Tenant temporarily to close its business or reduce its workforce, the Fixed Rent shall be abated (or proportionately abated with respect to a partial closure) from the date of such closing to the date the damage shall have been substantially repaired so as to enable the Tenant to continue its business in substantially the same fashion as was previously operating prior to the date of such loss or destruction.
          19.3 Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord will not carry insurance of any kind on Tenant’s fixtures, furniture, and equipment, or on any Tenant Improvements or other appurtenances removable by Tenant under the provisions of this Lease, and that Landlord shall not be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the same. However, if Landlord does place such coverages on Tenant’s owned property as provided in Section 11.3, all proceeds applicable to Tenant’s owned property shall be promptly transmitted to Tenant upon receipt by the Landlord, and Landlord will use its best efforts, in coordination with Tenant, to make the appropriate claims and recover insurance proceeds due under the applicable coverage.
     20. Estoppel Certificate:
          20.1 Upon request from the either party and/or its successor in interest, either party hereto, and/or its successors in interest, shall at any time and from time to time upon not less than twenty (20) days prior written notice, execute, acknowledge and deliver a statement in writing: (a) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease as so modified is in full force and effect), and the date to which the rental and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (b) acknowledging that there are not, to such party’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of either party hereunder, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed, and (c) setting forth the date of commencement of rents and expiration of the term hereof. Any such statement may be relied upon by the prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of all or any portion of the real property of which the Demised Premises are a part, or other interested party.

- 29 -

 

     21. Signage
          21.1 Under no circumstances shall Tenant place or erect, or allow to be placed, or erected, a sign of any nature whatsoever upon any exterior portion of the Building. Ground signs which are similar to existing ground signs will be permitted subject to prior written approval from Landlord in connection with any proposed sign, its location, and its manner of installation. Landlord may remove any signs installed by Tenant which are in violation of the provisions of this Article. In no event shall any permitted sign be installed on the roof or above the parapet height of the Demised Premises or of the Building. Any sign which Tenant may be permitted to install on the Demised Premises shall nonetheless conform to any and all requirements of any governmental body of any nature whatsoever having jurisdiction thereover, notwithstanding Tenant’s having obtained written consent from Landlord therefor. Tenant shall have the right, as the need may occur, to apply for any sign variances, at its sole cost and expense, provided the Landlord shall have first approved the proposed sign. Landlord’s consent to signs shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, and Landlord agrees to reasonably cooperate with Tenant to facilitate Tenant in obtaining any applicable municipal approvals therefor.
     22. Brokerage Commission: Landlord and Tenant each warrant and represent one to another that neither has dealt with, employed or negotiated with any real estate broker, salesman, agent or finder in connection with this Lease Agreement except Xxxxxxx, Inc. (“Broker”). Landlord agrees to pay the commission due to the Broker pursuant to a separate agreement. Landlord shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Tenant, and Tenant shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Landlord, from and against any claim or claims for broker or other commission arising from or out of any breach of the foregoing representation and warranty by the respective indemnitors. The representations and obligations contained in this paragraph shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
     23. Unavoidable Delays:
          23.1 Except as otherwise provided for in Articles 5.2 above, in the event that Landlord or Tenant shall be delayed or prevented from performing any of its obligations pursuant to the provisions of this Lease Agreement due to governmental action, or lack thereof, or due to shortages of or unavailability of materials and/or supplies, labor disputes, strikes, slow downs, job actions, picketing, secondary boycotts, fire or other casualty, delays in transportation, acts of God, failure to comply or inability to comply with any orders or requests of any governmental agencies or authorities, acts of declared or undeclared war, public disorder, riot or civil commotion, or by any other cause beyond the reasonable control of such party (each, a “Force Majeure Event”), then such party shall in any or all such events be excused from its obligation to perform and comply with such provisions of this Lease Agreement for a period of time commensurate with any delay so caused without any liability to the other party therefor whatsoever and all time periods provided for herein for performance of any such obligations shall be extended accordingly. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Force Majeure Event shall not delay or excuse Tenant’s obligations to pay Fixed Rent or Additional Rent.

- 30 -

 

     24. Subordination:
          24.1 Tenant covenants that its rights under this Lease Agreement are hereby and will be subordinate to the operation and effect of any mortgage or mortgages now existing or hereafter placed upon the premises or building or lot without any further written document from Tenant. However, Tenant shall, upon request by Landlord, execute such documents as may be required to effect such subordination to the satisfaction of any such mortgagee.
          24.2 Tenant agrees to comply with reasonable requirements for modifications hereof made by any reputable bona fide mortgage lending institution provided that such requirements shall not affect the basic business terms hereof.
          24.3 Tenant shall, upon request of Landlord, furnish to Landlord at any time during the term, the most recent financial statement(s) of Tenant for a period of up to two (2) years last past. If certified statements certified by a certified public accountant have been prepared, then certified statements will be provided by Tenant. Landlord agrees to keep the financial statement(s) confidential and shall not distribute such financial information to any party other than Landlord’s agents, employees, attorneys, accountants and lender to the extent that such parties require such information and such parties shall be informed of the confidential nature of such information.
          24.4 Tenant covenants and agrees to attorn to any successor to Landlord’s interest in this Lease.
          24.5 Landlord agrees to obtain a non-disturbance agreement from existing and future mortgagees in whatever standard form is utilized by such mortgagees for the benefit of Tenant, and to deliver same to Tenant within a reasonable time after execution of this Lease. Landlord hereby agrees to cooperate with Tenant and to use best efforts to obtain from any existing and future mortgagees on behalf of Tenant reasonable changes sought by Tenant to the standardized form of non-disturbance agreement utilized by such mortgagees. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, this Lease shall be subordinate to any such existing and future mortgages only during the period that a non-disturbance agreement remains in full force and effect, and otherwise shall be superior to such instruments.
     25. Security Deposit:
          25.1. Tenant has provided a “Security Deposit” to Landlord’s affiliate, 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, LLC, with respect to a lease for premises in the building located at 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx (the “410 Lease”). The Security Deposit is in the form of a letter of credit in the current amount of Six Million and 00/100 Dollars ($4,000,000.00), and will increase over time, as provided in the 410 Lease to Ten Million and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00).
From and after the Effective Date, Landlord’s affiliate, 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, LLC shall be entitled, but shall not be obligated, to use the Security Deposit as security for the performance of Tenant’s obligations under: (a) the 410 Lease, (b) this Lease, and (c) that certain lease with another affiliate of Landlord for that certain property having an address of 000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxx (the “760 Lease”).

- 31 -

 

               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that this Lease, the 410 Lease and the 760 Lease are neither cross-defaulted nor cross-collateralized, and that neither the Landlord nor its respective affiliates that are landlords under the 410 Lease and 760 Lease shall be permitted to exercise any remedies under any particular lease unless and until a default has occurred under such lease, and all applicable notice and cure periods, if any, thereunder have expired.
     26. Surrender Obligations.
          26.1 Notwithstanding any contrary or inconsistent language in this Lease, the obligation of the Tenant to remove alterations, improvements, equipment and fixtures upon any termination of this Lease and the rights of the Landlord to elect that alterations, improvements, equipment and fixtures installed by Tenant in the Demised Premises shall be left in place upon any termination of the Lease shall be unchanged from those obligations and rights as they exist under the terms of the Comdisco Lease, a true and complete copy of which is annexed hereto, as Schedule “F” and the terms of which are incorporated herein for purposes of reference with respect to the restoration issues only. The rights of the parties respecting all future alterations, improvements and fixtures installed by the Tenant shall continue to be determined under the provisions of the Comdisco Lease throughout the Term of this Lease and all option terms provided for by this Lease.
          26.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Comdisco Lease, the Tenant shall not be permitted or required to remove the conduits and the wiring from the public right of way to the Building at the Demised Premises, and the conduits and wiring therein running from the Building to the buildings located at 000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx and 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, shall not be removed at the Termination Date and shall become the sole property of the Landlord from and after the Termination Date.
     27. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.
     28. Environmental Covenants: Each of Landlord and Tenant represents, covenants, promises and agrees to and with the other party, as follows:

(Landlord represents to Tenant that Landlord knows of no such assessment). The basis of such proration with reference to local improvement installed and any assessment by a governmental agency shall be the period during the term of this lease that the property is or is likely to be benefited as measured against the life of the benefit, not the date when payments are due, e.g., if the assessment for local improvement were for a sidewalk having a useful life of forty (40) years and the remainder of the term of the lease were four (4) years, the Tenant would be responsible for ten (10%) percent of the assessment.
     (b) It is the intention of the parties hereto that during the term of this lease the Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, bear, pay and discharge, before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added for the nonpayment thereof, all taxes, water, rent, sewer charges, and license and permit fees, (herein called “Impositions”), provided the Landlord furnishes Tenant at least 30 days before due, with the xxxx covering such Imposition or if there is no xxxx, then notice of such Imposition, together with any interest or penalties lawfully imposed upon the late payment thereof if imposed because of Tenant’s failure to make timely payment within the time period herein specified, which pursuant to the present or future law or otherwise, during the term hereby granted and any renewal term hereof, shall be levied, charged, or become due and payable out of or for, or become a lien on the premises or any portion thereof, the Building and any building and improvements hereafter erected upon the Leased Premises by the Tenant, the appurtenances thereto, the sidewalks or streets, adjacent

9

 

thereto, any use or occupancy of the land, and such franchises as may be appurtenant to the use and occupation of the Leased Premises EXCEPT income taxes assessed against the Landlord, capital levy, estate, succession, inheritance, or transfer taxes payable by the Landlord, corporate franchises, capital stock, loans and bonus taxes imposed upon any owner of the fee of the Leased Premises, and any income, profits or revenue tax, assessment or charge imposed upon rent as such payable by the Tenant under this lease and any renewal thereof or any tax or charge in replacement or substitution of the foregoing or of a similar character. If at any time during the term of the lease or of any renewal hereof, the present method of taxation shall be changed so that the whole or any part of the real estate taxes, sewer and water charges shall be levied and imposed wholly or partially as a capital levy or otherwise on the rents received from said real estate or the rents reserved herein or in any renewal hereof or any part of either, or shall be measured by or based in whole or in part, upon the Building and improvements now or hereafter erected and maintained upon the Leased Premises, as the sole asset of the Landlord, and shall be imposed upon the Landlord, the Tenant shall pay the same, as the same respectively comes due together with any interest or penalties lawfully imposed upon the late payment thereof if imposed because of Tenant’s failure to make timely payment within the time periods herein specified.
     The Tenant, upon the Landlord’s request, shall furnish to the Landlord and to each holder of the mortgage on the Leased Premises before the date when any tax, water and sewer rent and charges would become delinquent, receipts or other proof reasonably satisfactory to the Landlord or such mortgagee, as the case may be, evidencing the payment of such Imposition.
     Unless the Tenant notifies the Landlord in writing that the Tenant intends within a reasonable time to proceed as in subparagraph (c) hereof provided, and if the Tenant shall fail for thirty (30) days after written notice and demand given to the Tenant by Landlord, to pay any Imposition within the time permitted by law for the

10

 

payment thereof without interest or penalty, the Landlord may pay the same with all interest and penalties lawfully imposed upon the late payment thereof, and the amount so paid by the Landlord with interest thereon [commencing the later of (i) the date of Landlord’s payment or (ii) thirty (30) days after such notice] at the rate of prime plus two (2%) percent per annum from the date of payment by the Landlord, shall thereupon be and become immediately due and payable to the Landlord by the Tenant as additional rent. The basis for proration of the Tenant’s obligations under this subsection 7(b) shall be the period during the term of this lease that the property is or is likely to be benefited as measured against the life of the benefit. [See example in Article 7(a)].
     (c) In the event the Tenant wishes to contest any assessment or levy or Impositions on the Leased Premises, the Landlord covenants and agrees that it will lend its name and execute all papers necessary to aid the Tenant in contesting or litigating said assessment or levy provided, however, that said litigation or contest shall be at the cost and expense of the Tenant, and that the Tenant shall indemnify the Landlord from any fines or penalties, which may be occasioned as a result of any such contest, and Tenant shall be entitled to any refunds from the taxing authorities.
     (d) Landlord shall have the option, upon thirty (30) days written notice to Tenant, to require the Tenant to pay the real estate taxes in monthly installments in advance.
     8. INSURANCE
     (a) The Landlord shall carry for the joint benefit of the Landlord and the Tenant fire insurance, general public liability insurance, rent insurance and flood insurance in an amount equal to the replacement value of the Building and not less than the requirements of the mortgagee holding the mortgage on said premises. At the time of completion, the value of the Building will be approximately $20,000,000.00. Tenant shall pay to Landlord on an annual basis, in advance, the cost of said insurance.

11

 

Tenant shall pay said annual cost for the insurance every year during the term of the Lease and Landlord shall provide Tenant each year with copies of the binder and xxxx.
     (b) In addition, Tenant, at its expense, shall maintain public liability insurance, casualty and extended coverage insurance of Tenant’s improvements, contents and personal property at the Leased Premises for replacement value thereof.
     (c) No insurance to be provided by the Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall be required to be in effect prior to the commencement of the term hereof.
     9. SIGNS
     The Tenant shall have the right to erect and maintain one (1) or more ground signs on the Premises, provided same complies with all regulations of applicable governmental agencies having jurisdiction thereof, and provided the installation has received prior written approval of the Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, that the erection of such sign or signs will not result in material damage to the leased premises upon removal. In addition, Landlord consents to the Tenant mounting a sign on the Building provided no penetrations are made in the brick on the Building. All signs shall be the property of Tenant and removed by the Tenant at the termination of this Lease without damage to the Premises.
     10. FIXTURES
     Tenant is given the right and privilege of installing and removing property, equipment and fixtures in the Leased Premises during the term of the Lease, it being understood and agreed, however, that in the event of the termination or expiration of this Lease, if the Tenant fails to remove any such property, equipment, fixtures or other property as of the termination of the Lease, in that event and provided the Landlord has given Tenant at least ten (10) days’ notice of Landlord’s intent to treat said property as abandoned, the said property, equipment and fixtures shall be deemed abandoned by Tenant and shall become the property of the Landlord, and

12

 

Tenant shall be responsible for all costs incurred by the Landlord in removing said fixtures.
     11. ASSIGNMENT, SUBLETTING AND RECAPTURE
     Tenant may assign this lease in whole or in part or sublease all or part of the premises to any party, subject to the following:
     (a) Tenant may, at any time and from time to time, during the term of this lease, give Landlord notice of Tenant’s intention to seek to sublease all or part of the premises or to assign this lease as to all or part of the premises. Such notice shall designate (i) if a partial subletting or assignment is contemplated, the specific part of the premises to be covered by such subletting or assignment; (ii) if a subletting is contemplated, the period of such subletting; and (iii) the name and address of the contemplated sublessee or assignee, if known. Such notice shall be accompanied by a copy of a letter of intent, if any, and by such other information as may be available in written or graphic form and describe the negotiations or discussions between the parties to the contemplated assignment or sublease. For a period of fifteen (15) days from the giving of such notice, Landlord shall have a recapture option, only if seventy five (75) percent or more of the premises is sought to be assigned or subleased, whereby, in effect Landlord may cancel this lease as to all or the part of the premises (as the case may be), for the remainder of the lease term or any extended term, with the basic rent thenceforth payable under this lease and the proportionate share used in computing additional rent thenceforth payable under this lease to be reduced so as to reflect the reduction of the area of the premises resulting from such recapture. Such recapture option shall be exercised by Landlord’s giving Tenant notice of such exercise prior to the expiration of such recapture option period. Upon exercise of such recapture option Landlord and Tenant shall execute and deliver such instruments as shall be necessary to effectuate the above recapture provisions, to provide that for the remainder of the lease term or any extended term Tenant be entirely relieved of any and all obligations accruing after the effective date of the recapture as to the

13

 

portion of the premises recaptured. Landlord and Tenant shall, at the request of either party, execute a memorandum in recordable form to memorialize said recapture. At the expiration of the period of time covered by the recapture the portion of the premises recaptured shall revert back to Tenant and this lease shall continue in full force and effect as if the recapture had not occurred. During the period of such recapture, alterations to the recaptured space shall be subject to Tenant’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The recaptured space, including leasehold improvements thereto, which are not the property of the occupant of such space during the recapture period, shall, at the time said space reverts to Tenant, be in the same condition, subject to reasonable wear, tear and damage by fire, the elements, casualty, or other cause not due to the neglect of Landlord, such occupant or their agents, visitors, servants or licensees, as existing at the commencement of the recapture period.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Landlord elects to recapture the entire Leased Premises in response to due notice from the Tenant, the Tenant shall be relieved of any further obligation under this lease for the balance of the term, regardless of the fact that the term of the lease, by the Tenant, was less than the full term of the lease, (e.g., after the end of the first lease year Tenant gives Landlord notice of the proposed sublease of the entire premises for two (2) years, and the Landlord elects to recapture, the Tenant shall have no further obligation to perform under any of the terms and conditions of the lease). If Landlord recaptures, Tenant shall be reimbursed for cost of its improvements on a pro rata basis. All prepaid rents and security deposits shall be promptly returned to Tenant.
     (b) In the event that the Landlord has, but fails to exercise, the recapture option as described in Paragraph (a) of this Article, the Tenant may proceed in accordance with the notice of intention given by Tenant, to assign this lease or sublet the whole or any portion of the premises, subject to the Landlord’s prior written consent, which

14

 

consent will be granted or denied within ten (10) days, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed on the basis of the following terms and conditions:
     (i) Tenant shall furnish Landlord a copy of the proposed instrument of such sublease or assignment;
     (ii) The assignee shall assume, by written instrument, the obligations of this lease, (but only to the extent they pertain to the space covered by the assignment if less than the entire premises) for the period from and after the date of such assignment and a copy of such assumption agreement shall be furnished to the Landlord within ten (10) days of its execution;
     (iii) The Tenant and each assignee shall be and remain liable for the observance of all the covenants and provisions of this lease, (but only to the extent they pertain to the space covered by the assignment if less than the entire premises) including, but not limited to, the payment of basic and additional rent reserved herein, thereafter through the entire unexpired term of this lease;
     (c) Landlord’s consent shall not be required with respect to an assignment or transfer of this lease, or a subletting to any affiliate of the Tenant, or any firm, corporation or other organization which shall succeed to substantially all of Tenant’s business, or to any affiliate, provided that such successor firm, corporation or other organization executes an agreement assuming all of the terms, provisions and covenants of this lease on Tenant’s part to be performed and within twenty (20) business days after the execution and delivery of such an assignment, a true copy of the assignment and assumption agreement, together with a statement of the assets and net worth of the assignee are delivered to the Landlord.
     12. DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION
     (a) If all or any part of the Leased Premises is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall commence promptly, subject to the approval of

15

 

governmental agencies having jurisdiction, and with reasonable dispatch continue to restore same to substantially the same condition as existed immediately preceding the damage or destruction. If the cost of the casualty is $100,000 or less, then Landlord shall restore the Premise at his sole cost and expense and then await the insurance proceeds.
     (b) The loss, if any, under policies pursuant to this lease shall be adjusted with the insurers by the Landlord. The loss as adjusted shall be paid to the Landlord to rebuild the property.
     (c) The net insurance proceeds which are payable to the Landlord in case of any casualty shall be deposited by it in an escrow account in the name of any escrowee selected by the Landlord and approved by the Tenant, or in the event there is an institutional first mortgagee, such lender shall have the right to act as escrowee. Such insurance proceeds shall be paid in escrow by such escrowee as a trust fund for the purpose of paying for the cost of repairing, replacing, restoring or rebuilding the property or equipment so damaged by fire or other risks covered by such insurance and the cost of making temporary repairs or doing such work as may be necessary to protect the Leased Premises against further injury. Such insurance proceeds shall be disbursed by such escrowee in accordance with the provisions of subparagraph (f) of this paragraph. The escrowee shall be entitled to no compensation payable out of such fund. If the net insurance proceeds held by the escrowee, as provided in this subparagraph, shall exceed such cost, such excess shall belong to and be paid over to the Landlord upon completion of and payment for such work.
     (d) Any repair, replacement, restoration or rebuilding required to be made under this paragraph involving an estimated cost of $100,000.00 or more, as estimated by a reputable architect selected by the Landlord and approved by Tenant shall be made under the supervision of such architect and shall not be undertaken until detailed plans and specifications of such work shall have been filed with and approved by the Tenant. The Tenant shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval to the plans

16

 

and specifications submitted to, and if Tenant fails to respond by either approving or stating its reasons for not approving within fifteen (15) business days after delivery thereof to it, they shall be deemed approved by the Tenant. If the Tenant disapproves of such plans and specifications within such period of time, such disapproval shall be in writing and shall specify the grounds therefore. Upon such disapproval, and if the parties cannot resolve their differences within twenty (20) days, the Landlord may submit to arbitration, in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, the determination of whether the Tenant has unreasonably withheld its approval. If the Tenant is held not to have unreasonably withheld its approval, the Landlord shall amend the plans and specifications to meet the problem specified as the grounds for Tenant’s disapproval and thereafter resubmit the plans and specifications, as so amended, to the Tenant for the Tenant’s approval.
     (e) Any monies paid to the parties or to any escrowee of the parties or to the person hereafter described in this subparagraph, as the case may be, shall be paid as the work progresses against the certificates of the architect in charge of such repairs, replacement and restoration, or rebuilding showing that the amount stated in the particular certificate has been paid or is due in respect of such work, together with the names and addresses of the persons, if any, to whom such amounts are due. Until such repairs, replacement, restoration or rebuilding shall have been fully completed, the total so paid over shall in no circumstances exceed eighty-five (85%) percent thereof.
     (f) There shall be an abatement or pro-rata reduction of Fixed Rent and other sums payable by the Tenant hereunder immediately (and Landlord shall be entitled to collect the rent insurance) by reason of any damage or destruction to any building or equipment or any part thereof now or hereafter on the Leased Premises, or by reason of any repair, replacement, restoration or rebuilding, and the Tenant shall be entitled to terminate the Lease by reason thereof, in the event Landlord does not notify Tenant

17

 

within thirty (30) days of the casualty that it intends to restore the premises, or if the premises are not fully restored within ninety (90) days of the casualty.
     (g) In the event the insurance proceeds are insufficient to repair, replace, restore or rebuild the property and equipment on the Leased Premises, the Landlord shall be responsible for and shall promptly pay any deficiency therein.
     (h) If the damage shall occur in the last two (2) years of the term and/or shall be so extensive that the Building is totally destroyed (the Building shall be deemed totally destroyed if the cost of restoration shall exceed fifty (50%) percent of the replacement value, exclusive of the cost of foundation and excavation) this lease and the term hereby granted shall at the option of either party cease and the rent shall be apportioned to the date of destruction. In the such event the insurance proceeds covering Landlord’s interest shall be turned over to and belong to the Landlord, if the policy permits.
     (i) If the Leased Premises is substantially damaged or destroyed by a casualty which is not covered by the insurance that Tenant is required to maintain pursuant to this lease and Landlord is not carrying additional insurance that would cover said casualty, either party shall have the right to terminate this lease by giving notice to the other party, which notice of termination shall be thirty (30) days after the date on which such notice of termination is given, and (i) upon the date specified in such notice, this lease and the term hereof shall cease and expire, and (ii) Fixed Rent or other sums paid by the Tenant for a period after such date of termination shall be refunded to Tenant upon demand, as well as the security deposit and prepaid rent paid hereunder.

     (a) If the whole of the Premises shall be taken under the exercise of the power of condemnation or eminent domain, then this Lease shall automatically terminate on the date that title or possession is taken by the condemner, whichever occurs first, and the rent shall be apportioned as of said date. If any part of the Premises be so taken so as to materially restrict, limit or adversely affect the use, occupancy or enjoyment of Tenant, then Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease by thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Landlord, which notice must be given within ninety (90) days after possession or title on the partial taking is obtained by condemner, and the rent shall be apportioned on the effective date of termination of the Lease by Tenant.
     (b) If any part of the Premises shall be so taken and this Lease shall not terminate or be terminated under the provisions of subparagraph (a) hereof, then the rental shall be equitably apportioned according to the square footage of the Premises, and the Landlord shall, at its own cost and expense, restore the remaining portion of the Premises to the extent necessary to render it reasonably suitable for the purposes for which it was leased, shall provide finished parking facilities equivalent to those originally furnished to Tenant, and shall make all repairs to the Building in which the Premises is located to the extent necessary to constitute the Building a complete architectural unit, provided, however, that if the amount of the award received by Landlord is not adequate to cover the cost of such restoration or repairing, Landlord may elect by written notice to Tenant to that effect to terminate this Lease.
     (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Lease, Tenant’s use, occupancy or enjoyment of the Premises will be deemed materially restricted if any portion of the Building or ground area of sufficient size to deprive Tenant of ten percent (10%) or more of the available parking area on site at the commencement of the term shall be taken under the exercise of the power of condemnation or eminent domain.
     (d) All compensation awarded or paid upon such a total or partial taking of the Premises shall belong to and be the property of the Landlord, provided, however, that

19

 

nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Tenant, as permitted by law, from prosecuting any claim directly against the condemning authority in such condemnation proceedings for loss of business, relocation costs or depreciation to, damage to, or cost of removal of, or for the value of stock, trade fixtures, furniture, and other personal property belonging to Tenant.
     (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, all rights of the Landlord and Tenant to share in the condemnation award shall be subject to the prior right of the institutional first mortgage lender to receive all such condemnation funds to the extent of the balance then due on the first mortgage.

The party receiving such notice will appoint an impartial arbitrator and the two appointed arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator. If agreement on the third arbitrator cannot be reached, then the Judge of the Superior Court of New Jersey shall select such third arbitrator. The arbitrators shall decide the specific issues referred to them and any decisions shall be binding upon the parties. Landlord and Tenant shall each pay their own arbitrator and share the cost of the third arbitrator.
     33. SPECIAL DAMAGES
     NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES AS A RESULT OF A BREACH HEREOF EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
     34. RENEWAL OPTION.
     Comdisco shall have the right to renew the original Lease for two (2) five (5) year periods, by providing owner with twelve (12) months prior written notice. The rental rate structure shall be 100% of the “Current Market Rental Rate” for comparable first class office buildings/warehouses in the Pertinent Market. Thereafter, for the remainder of the renewal term, there shall be a three (3) percent annual increase. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Current Market Rental Rate” shall mean a rate comprised of the prevailing base rental rate for tenants per square foot of rental area available in the Pertinent Market. Any such Rate shall take into account any market concessions such as tenant improvements, free rent, constructions allowance, rent abatement, moving allowance, etc. and comparable leases (on the bases of factors such as, but not limited to, size and location of space and commencement dated and term of lease), if any, recently executed for space in the

30

 

Building and other office buildings/warehouses in the Pertinent Market which are comparable to the Building in reputation, quality, age, size, location and level and quality of services provided (the foregoing factors not being exclusive in identifying comparable buildings) and which are not for any reason (such as, without limitation, economic distress) market anomalies. For the purposes hereof, “Pertinent Market” shall mean within ten (10) miles of the location of the Premises. If Landlord and Tenant do not agree on the Current Market Rental Rate fifteen (15) months before the termination of the then existing term, each party shall appoint an arbitrator who shall be a licensed real estate broker of the State of New Jersey, who shall be active in commercial rentals in the Pertinent Market or an appraiser qualified as an M.A.I. having an office in New Jersey. Such appointment shall be made by each party within thirty (30) days after notice of the necessity of arbitration, and each party shall advise the other of their choice. On the failure of either party to appoint an arbitrator within ten (10) days after notification of the appointment by the other party, the person appointed arbitrator may appoint an arbitrator to represent the party in default, which arbitrator shall not have served previously in a similar capacity for, or been otherwise employed by, the non-defaulting party. The two arbitrators appointed in either manner shall then proceed to make the determination of the Current Market Rental Rate for the renewal period and the mutual decision of the two arbitrators shall be binding on the parties. In the event of their inability to reach a result, they may select a third arbitrator, who shall not have served previously in a similar capacity for, or been employed by, either party. If the two arbitrators are unable to agree on a third arbitrator, a then sitting Judge of the Superior Court of New Jersey shall appoint the third arbitrator. The third arbitrator shall choose one of the two appraisals closest to market value and his determination shall be final and binding upon the parties. For this calculation, the building shall be a total of 301,827 square feet, consisting of 259,908 square feet on the first (1st) floor and 41,919 square feet on the second (2nd) floor.

31

 

     35. RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER ON EXPANSION SPACE.
     The expansion space shall be defined as the adjacent site to the south of the property known as Block 131.1, part of Lots 9, 9.01, and 9.02 which the Landlord is currently contemplating a proposed 187,000 square foot light industrial and distribution building, (“Expansion Space”).
     During the Term of the Lease, including any Renewal Term (s), the Landlord hereby grants the Tenant the following rights with respect to the Expansion Space:
     (a) At any time after the commencement of the Initial Term, the Landlord agrees o notify Tenant in writing when the Landlord is having active, continuous and ongoing negotiations with a prospect for the Expansion Space.

The parties shall negotiate in good faith. The Landlord shall be free to continue negotiations with any prospect and Tenant simultaneously.

     36. RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER TO PURCHASE
     Tenant shall be granted a right of first offer to negotiate for the purchase of the Building. Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with written notice of the availability of the Building for sale and offer the Building in its entirety to Tenant on such terms and conditions as Landlord would offer to third parties, as determined by Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion, prior to marketing said space to third parties. Tenant shall have sixty (60) days from the date of Landlord’s Notice to respond in writing to the same. If Landlord has not received a written response by the end of said sixty (60) day period or if Tenant declines to accept Landlord’s offer or makes a counteroffer which Landlord shall reject, in writing, as unacceptable in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, Landlord shall thereafter be free to market the Building and sell the Building for not less than the counter-offer submitted by Tenant If Landlord and Tenant agree on terms for the sale of the Building, but are subsequently unable, in good faith, to consummate an agreement with respect thereto acceptable to both Landlord and Tenant, Landlord shall thereafter be free to market the Building and sell the Building on such terms and conditions as landlord shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, without any further obligation to offer said Building again to Tenant.

     Landlord agrees that it will not lease space in the Expansion Space to or maintain any sign for any competitor of Tenant’s Business Recovery Services Division, including but not limited to IBM, GE Capital, IBM Business Recovery Services or Sunguard Business Recovery Services without Tenant’s prior written consent. For so long as this Lease, including any Renewal or Expansion hereof, as provided in Sections 34 and 35, respectively, is in full force and effect, Landlord agrees not to sell the Building to a competitor of Tenant, including but not limited to IBM, GE Capital, IBM Business Recovery Services and Sungard Business Recovery Services.

     38. ELECTRICAL SUBSTATION
     The Landlord shall design and provide at no cost to the Tenant an area on site sufficient to house an electrical substation which will be constructed by Tenant. In the event that in the future the Landlord requires additional electrical service from the substation, provided that Landlord’s use does not interfere with Tenant’s use of the substation, including but not limited to degradation of electrical power, it shall have the right to add to the substation for such additional electrical use, upon at least thirty (30) days prior written notice. In such event upon the completion of such addition, Landlord shall share proportionately in the cost of maintenance of such substation and shall be billed for such use at the same cost incurred by Tenant from the electric supplier. In the event that the area provided by the Landlord for such substation is insufficient for the Tenant’s purposes, Landlord will provide the additional space required for such addition and replace it at no cost to the Tenant. Any parking spaces lost by virtue of such increase shall be replaced by the Landlord on the south side of the building at no cost to the Tenant so that the Tenant will always have a minimum of 378 parking spaces on site.
