in order to commence with preparations for completion of the Tenant
Improvements, within ten (10) days of execution of this Lease, with such
possession being subject to the terms of this Lease. Subject to the agreement of
Landlord and Tenant on the final Plans as set forth in Section 32(b) hereof,
Tenant agrees to submit a complete application for a building permit to the

Lease term commences.
5. RENT.
a. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord as basic rental, without
prior notice or demand, the sum of twenty-two thousand four hundred ninety nine
AND 90/100 Dollars ($22,499.90), on or before the first day of the first full
calendar month of the term hereof and a like sum on or before the first day of

except that the one month's rent shall be paid upon the execution hereof. Rent

be a per diem prorated portion of the monthly installment herein, based upon the
actual number of days in the month. Said rental shall be paid to Landlord,
without deduction or offset (except as otherwise authorized in this Lease) in
lawful money of the United States of America, which shall be legal tender at the
time of payment at 0000 00xx Xxxxxx #000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000, or to such

one (1), two (2), three (3), and thirteen (13) shall be abated during the
primary term of the Lease.
1
b. On not less than 15 days prior notice, effective as
of the first day of the month following the end of a
Lease year Landlord may increase the basic rental
payable for the subsequent twelve (12) month period.
The increase shall be a fixed four percent (4.0%)
escalation per annum.
c. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein, the basic
monthly rental due under the terms hereof shall at no time be less than
twenty-two thousand four hundred ninety nine AND 90/100 Dollars ($22,499.90).
6. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Tenant has deposited with Landlord, upon the
execution of this Lease, the sum of twenty-eight thousand three-hundred two AND
08/100 Dollars ($28,302.08) by check payable to the direct order of the
Landlord. Subject to the terms contained in this Section 6, Landlord also
requires a letter of credit in the amount of seventy-five thousand And 00/100
Dollars ($75,000.00) ("Letter of Credit"). Said sum shall be held by Landlord as
security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants, and
conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant during the term
hereof. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease,
including, but not limited to the provisions relating to the payment of Rent,
Landlord may (but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part
of this security deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in
default, or for the payment of any amount which Landlord may spend or become
obligated to spend by reason of Tenant's default, or to compensate Landlord for
any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's
default. If any portion of said deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall
within five (5) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord
in an amount sufficient to restore the security deposit to its original amount
and Tenant's failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease. Landlord
shall not be required to keep this security deposit separate from its general
funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such deposit. If Tenant
shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed
by it, the security deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant
(or at Landlord's option, to the last assignee of Tenant's interest hereunder)
at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease term. In the event of
termination of Landlord's interest in this Lease, Landlord shall transfer said
deposit to Landlord's successor in interest. The Letter of Credit shall be
reduced by one-half (or replaced by a Letter of Credit in the amount of
$37,500.00) at the end of the 24th month of the primary lease term and
eliminated entirely at the end of the 48th month of the primary lease term.
Despite the foregoing, if the money judgment entered against the Tenant in the
case filed in Boulder District Court, by X.X. Xxxxxx (Case No. 99CV30), is
vacated by the trial court or on appeal, or on remand, the amount of the money
judgment is reduced to $2,500,000.00 or less by the trial court, or the judgment
is satisfied; then the Letter of Credit shall immediately be eliminated
entirely, provided, however, that if said judgement is subsequently reinstated
or increased to $2,500,000.00 or more for any reason whatsoever, then Tenant's
obligation to provide said Letter of Credit shall be automatically reinstated
and such Letter of Credit shall be delivered to Landlord within fifteen (15)
days of such reinstatement or increase. So long as Tenant is required to
maintain the Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit shall be replaced at least
30 days prior to the expiration of the then current Letter of Credit.

Redecorating, renovating and replacement of floor coverings of common areas
shall be charged to operating expenses as provided in Subsection i. of this
Section. "Common Facilities" shall mean the areas of the Building and the lot or

conditioned); advertising, promotional, or membership costs, fees or dues; costs

During the Term of this lease (and any renewal term hereunder)
during which the Building is less than 100% leased, then Tenant shall pay
53.3347% of Operating Expenses paid or incurred by the Landlord for the
operation or maintenance of the Building of which the Premises are a part,
except for the cost of utilities for the Building (referred to herein as
"Utilities Costs"). This percentage is calculated as Tenant's pro-rata share of
such Operating Expenses based upon the assumption of a 95% occupancy rate and a
total net rentable area of 36,127 square feet. During any period of time in
which the Building is less than 100% leased, then Tenant shall, in addition to
paying the percentage of Operating Expenses for the Building set forth above,
pay its pro rata share (which shall be calculated by dividing the number of
square feet leased by Tenant pursuant to this Lease by the total number of
leased square feet leased by all tenants in the Building at such time) of
Utilities Costs, provided, however, that during any such time, Landlord agrees
to pay its proportionate share of costs associated with utility usage in: (i)
unleased office space in the Building which are not attributable to Tenant or
another tenant in physical occupancy in the Building, e.g. utilities costs
associated with construction activities in an unleased portion of the Building
or (ii) construction activities in any portion of the Building leased but which
has not been physically occupied by the tenant under the applicable lease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any time that the Building is 100% leased,
then the Tenant's pro rata share shall be 50.6885% of all Operating Expenses
paid or incurred by the Landlord for the operation and maintenance of the
Building of which the Premises are a part. If the Building or the total net
rentable area is changed, Tenant's pro rata share of the Operating Expenses
shall be adjusted proportionately. Upon commencement of this Lease, Landlord
shall give Tenant a statement of the amount of Operating Expenses payable by
Tenant with each payment of rent, which shall be based upon a best estimate of
such expenses if no record of actual expenses for the prior year are available.
Landlord shall give to Tenant on or before the first day of March of each year
thereafter an itemized statement of the prior year's Operating Expenses payable
by Tenant hereunder and advise Tenant of any increase in Operating Expenses, but
failure by Landlord to give such statement by said date shall not constitute a
waiver by Landlord of its right to require an increase in Operating Expenses.
The total amount of actual Operating Expenses for the prior year shall be used
as an estimate for current year and this amount shall be divided into twelve
(12) equal monthly installments, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, concurrently
with the regular monthly rent payment next due following 20 days after the
Tenant's receipt of such statement, an amount equal to one (1) monthly
installment multiplied by the number of months from January in the calendar year
in which said statement is submitted to the month of such payment, less the
aggregate amount of all installments previously paid by Tenant with respect to
Operating Expenses for such calendar year and any overpayment made by Tenant
with respect to the previous calendar year. Subsequent installments shall be
payable concurrently with the regular monthly rent payments for the balance of
that calendar year and shall continue until the next year's statement is
rendered. If actual Operating Expenses are more or less than estimated, then not
less than 20 days after receipt of a statement from Landlord, Tenant shall pay a
lump sum equal to such total increase with the next regular monthly rent payment
or receive a credit against said rent payment. Tenant or its representative
shall have the right to inspect, copy and audit Landlord's books and records
relating to the Operating Expenses during normal business hours. If any
inspection or audit discloses that Tenant has overpaid its pro rata share of
Operating Expenses for any calendar year, Landlord shall refund the overpayment
within 20 days after Landlord has been given notice of the overpayment and a
copy of the inspection or audit report. If the Landlord requested that Tenant
pay more than 105.00% of the Tenant's actual pro rata share of Operating
Expenses for any calendar year, Landlord shall reimburse the Tenant for all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the inspection or
audit of Landlord's books and records. Landlord shall maintain accurate and
complete books and records of all Operating Expenses, in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.
5
Even though the term has expired and Tenant has vacated the
Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant's share of Operating
Expenses for the year in which this Lease terminates, Tenant shall immediately
pay any increase due over the estimated expenses paid and, conversely, any
overpayment made in the event said expenses decrease shall be immediately
rebated by Landlord to Tenant.
8. USE. Tenant shall use the Premises for administrative offices, and
related storage and shall not use or permit the Premises to be used for any
other purpose without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about
the Premises nor bring or keep anything therein which will in any way increase
the existing rate or affect any fire or other insurance upon the Building or any
of its contents, or cause cancellation of any insurance policy covering said
Building or any part thereof or any of its contents. Landlord represents and
warrants that the Tenant's use of the Premises in accordance with this Lease
shall not result in any breach of Tenant's obligations under the preceding
sentence. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the
Premises which will, in any material way, obstruct or interfere with the rights
of other tenants or occupants of the Building or injure or unreasonably annoy
them or use or allow the Premises to be used for any improper or unlawful
purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about
the Premises. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant, its subsidiaries and affiliates
are engaged in the promotion, offering, distribution and sale of adult
entertainment and goods, which some reasonable people might find objectionable
or morally reprehensible, and so long as Tenant's business is conducted and
maintained within the confines of the Premises, this Lease authorizes the use of
the Premises for such purposes, provided, however, that Tenant agrees to use its
diligent efforts to prevent any adult entertainment items or materials which may
tend to offend or annoy reasonable persons from being readliy visible to persons
passing outside of the Premises (i.e. through a window or open door). Tenant
shall not commit or suffer to be committed any waste in or upon the Premises.
9. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Tenant shall not use the Premises or permit
anything to be done in or about the Premises which will violate any applicable
law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule or regulation now in force or which
may hereafter be enacted or promulgated. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and
expense, promptly comply with all laws, statutes, ordinances and governmental
rules, regulations or requirements now in force or which may hereafter be in
force, and with the requirements of any board of fire insurance underwriters or
other similar bodies now or hereafter constituted, relating to, or affecting the
condition, use or occupancy of the Premises, excluding the structural or system
(eg. sprinkler, fire alarm) changes: (i) not required as a result of any
Tenant's improvements or Tenant's specific use or method of operation and/or
(ii) which would be required of an office in the Building generally. A judgment
against Tenant, whether the Landlord be a party thereto or not, that Tenant has
violated any law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule, regulation or
requirement, shall be conclusive of that fact as between the Landlord and
Tenant.
10. ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS. During any 180 day period during the
Term of this Lease, Tenant may make up to Five thousand dollars ($5,000) in
non-structural alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises without
Landlord's consent. Except as specifically permitted in the preceding sentence,
Tenant shall not make or suffer to be made any alterations, additions or
improvements to or of the Premises or any part thereof without the written
consent of Landlord first had and obtained, which will not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any alterations, additions or improvements to
or of said Premises, including, but not limited to, wall covering, paneling and
built-in cabinet work, but excepting movable furniture and trade fixtures,
shall, on the expiration of the term, become a part of the realty and belong to
the Landlord and shall be surrendered with the Premises. In the event Landlord
consents to the making of any alterations, additions or improvements to the
Premises by Tenant, the same shall be made by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and
expense, and any contractor or person selected by Tenant to make the same, must
first be approved of in writing by the Landlord, which will not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of
the term hereof, Tenant shall, upon the written demand by the Landlord, at
Tenant's sole cost and expense, forthwith and with all due diligence, remove any
alterations, additions, or improvements which have been made by the Tenant and
which are designated by the Landlord to be removed, and repair any damage to the
Premises caused by such removal. Additionally, Landlord may elect to have Tenant
remove such alterations, additions and improvements as may be required to
restore Tenant's Premises to a condition suitable for multi-tenant occupancy
(referred to herein as "Common Core Restoration"). If Landlord, in its
discretion, elects to complete such Common Core Restoration, then Tenant shall
be responsible for the cost of the Common Core Restoration up to $17,500.00. In
other words, Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of removal and repair
related to any alterations, additions, or improvements which have been made by
Tenant and which are designated by Landlord to be removed , except that Tenant's
responsibility for payment of costs related to the Common Core Restoration shall
be limited to the lesser of (a) the cost of the Common Core Restoration; or (b)
$17,500.00. Landlord shall give Tenant notice on or before the expiration or
termination of this Lease of its decision to complete the Common Core
Restoration. Tenant shall also be responsible for the removal of any
telecommunications and data cabling as requested by Landlord. Landlord and
Tenant agree to perform a walk-through of the Premises not less than thirty (30)
days prior to the expiration of the term hereof (or within a reasonable time
prior to Tenant's vacancy of the Premises if this Lease is otherwise terminated
prior to the expiration of the term) for the purpose of determining what
alterations, additions and improvements (and telecommunications and data
cabling) which have been made or installed by The Tenant shall be removed upon
expiration or early termination of the term of this Lease.

11. REPAIRS.

deemed to have accepted the Premises as being in good, sanitary order, condition

every part thereof in good condition and repair, except for: (i) any structural

Landlord is obligated to provide; (ii) ordinary wear and tear; (iii) damage from
causes beyond the reasonable control of Tenant; and (iv) damages from any

insure against excepted. Except as specifically provided in an addendum, if any,
to this Lease, Landlord shall have no obligation whatsoever to alter, remodel,
improve, decorate or paint the Premises or any part thereof, and the parties
hereto affirm that Landlord has made no representations to Tenant respecting the
condition of the Premises or the Building except as specifically herein set
forth.
b. Landlord shall cause the Building and the Common Facilities
to be operated, maintained, repaired and replaced in first class condition.
Landlord shall repair, replace and maintain the structural portions of the
Building, including the roof, plumbing, air conditioning, heating, and
electrical and sprinkler systems installed or furnished by Landlord, and all
portion of the Building and the Premises which Tenant is not obligated to
maintain and repair, except to the extent that such maintenance and repairs are:
(i) caused by the breach of the Tenant's obligations under this Lease or the
act, neglect, fault or omission of any duty by the Tenant, its agents, servants,
employees or invitees; and (ii) are not covered by any insurance which Landlord
is required to maintain or by any insurance which Landlord does maintain, in

and repairs. The cost of all such repairs borne by the Landlord shall be
included in Operating Expenses to the extent provided in Section 7 hereof.
Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to make any such repairs or to
perform any maintenance unless such failure shall persist for an unreasonable
period of time (Landlord must complete such maintenance or repairs prior to the
expiration of the applicable grace period. If, for any reason, Landlord is
unable to complete such maintenance or repairs within the applicable grace
period, then Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of such situation prior to
the expiration of the applicable grace period) after the date Landlord has been
given notice of the need for such repairs or maintenance. Except as specifically
authorized by this Lease,, there shall be no abatement of Rent and no liability
of Landlord by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenant's business
arising from the making of any repairs, alterations or improvements in or to any
portion of the Building or the Premises or in or to fixtures, appurtenances and
equipment therein. In the event of an actual or apparent emergency, or
Landlord's breach of any of Landlord's maintenance, repair or replacement
obligations which is not cured within any applicable grace period, Tenant shall
have the right but not the obligation to make any repairs or replacements and

right to offset the amount invoiced against the rent and any other charges
payable under this Lease (collectively "Rent") until Tenant is reimbursed in
full. For the purposes of this Lease an actual or apparent emergency means
circumstances in which or in which it appears that unless immediate action is
taken, there will be significant damage to property or significant interference

or any risk of injury to person.

may require, at Landlord's sole option, that Tenant shall provide to Landlord,
at Tenant's sole cost and expense, a lien and completion bond or other security
reasonably acceptable to Landlord in an amount equal to one and one-half (1-1/2)
times any and all estimated cost of improvements, additions, or alterations to

Tenant shall not either voluntarily or by operation of law, assign, transfer,
mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or encumber this Lease or any interest therein,
and shall not sublet the said Premises or any part thereof, or any right or
privilege appurtenant thereto, or suffer any other person (the employees,
agents, servants and invitees of Tenant excepted) to occupy or use the said
Premises, or any portion thereof, without the written consent of Landlord first
had and obtained, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed, and 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. Any such assignment
or subletting without such consent shall be void, and shall, at the option of
the Landlord, constitute a default under this Lease. Tenant may, upon written
notice to Landlord, but without the consent of Landlord, (i) transfer (by
assignment or sublease, in whole or in part) this Lease to any parent or
affiliate of Tenant or to a wholly owned subsidiary of Tenant, or (ii) transfer
(by assignment or sublease, in whole or in part) this Lease to any person or
entity acquiring, by asset or stock purchase, merger, consolidation,
reorganization or liquidation, all or substantially all of Tenant's assets or
voting stock, provided that such person or entity assumes in writing the
obligations of Tenant under this Lease.
50.00 percent (50.00%) of any rent or other consideration
realized by Tenant under any such assignment, subletting or occupancy in excess
of the Basic Rental and other sums payable hereunder, after amortization of the
reasonable costs incurred by Tenant for leasing commissions, leasehold
improvements and other expenses in connection with such assignment, subletting
or occupancy, at the time incurred over the term of such assignment, subletting
or occupancy, shall be paid to Landlord by Tenant when collected by Tenant. Any
consideration paid in connection with any sale or other transfer of Tenant's
business or assets shall not be shared with Landlord. Landlord may charge a
reasonable fee not to exceed $1,000 as part of its consent to any assignment,
sublease, or encumbrance.
14. HOLD HARMLESS.
14.01 Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord against and from
any and all claims arising from Tenant's use of the Premises for the
conduct of its business or from any activity, work, or other thing
done, permitted or suffered by the Tenant in or about the Building,
and shall further indemnify and hold harmless Landlord against and
from any and all claims arising from any breach or default in the
performance of any obligation on Tenant's part to be performed under
the terms of this Lease, or arising from any act or negligence of
the Tenant, or any officer, agent, employee, guest, or invitee of
Tenant, and from all and against all costs,
8
reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in or
about any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon,
and, in any case, action or proceeding be brought against Landlord
by reason of any such claim, Tenant, upon notice from Landlord shall
defend the same at Tenant's expense. Landlord shall immediately give
Tenant notice of such claim, and shall cooperate with the Tenant in
all reasonable respects. Tenant, as a material part of the
consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to
property or injury to persons in, upon or about the Premises, from
any cause other than Landlord's negligence or willful acts. Landlord
or its agents shall not be liable for any damage to property
entrusted to employees of the Building, nor for loss or damage to
any property by theft or otherwise, nor for any injury to or damage
to property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam,
gas, electricity, water or rain which may leak from any part of the
Building or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing works therein or
from the roof, street or subsurface or from any other place
resulting from dampness or any other cause whatsoever, unless caused
by or due to the negligence of Landlord, its agents, servants or
employees, or any default in the fulfillment of the Landlord's
obligations under this Lease. Landlord or its agents shall not be
liable for interference with the light or other incorporeal
hereditament, loss of business by Tenant, nor shall Landlord be
liable for any latent defects in the Premises or in the Building
(subject to Tenant's rights as set forth in Section 32(d) of this
Lease). Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord in case of fire
or accidents in the Premises or in the Building or of defects
therein or in the fixtures or equipment which Tenant has actual
knowledge of.
14.02 Subject to the waiver of subrogation contained in Section 15, to the
extent Tenant is not covered by Landlord's and Tenant's insurance,
Landlord shall, and hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold Tenant
harmless from any damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees) in connection with loss of life, bodily or personal
injury or property damage arising from any occurrence in the Common
Areas of the Building or the land on which the Building is located,
except to the extent of the acts or omissions of Tenant.
15. SUBROGATION. Landlord and Tenant hereby mutually waive their
respective rights of recovery against each other for any loss which would be
covered by "special form" casualty insurance policies, regardless of whether the
parties obtain such coverage. Each party shall obtain any special endorsements,
if required by their insurer to evidence compliance with the aforementioned
waiver.
16. LIABILITY INSURANCE.
16.1 Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, obtain and keep in force during the term
of this Lease a policy of comprehensive public liability insurance or commercial
general liability insurance with limits not less than $2,000,000, combined
single limit, insuring Landlord and Tenant against any liability arising out of
the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises and all areas
appurtenant thereto, as their interests may appear. Said insurance policy shall
contain an deductible portion not to exceed Five Thousand and no/100ths Dollars
($5,000). The limit of said insurance shall not, however, limit the liability of
the Tenant hereunder. Tenant may carry said insurance under a blanket policy,
providing, however, said insurance by Tenant shall have a Landlord's protective
liability endorsement attached thereto. Tenant may provide any portion of such
coverage under an "excess liability" or "umbrella policy." If Tenant shall fail
to procure and maintain said insurance, Landlord may, but shall not be required
to, procure and maintain same, but at the expense of Tenant after notifying
Tenant and allowing ten (10) business days. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord
prior to occupancy of the Premises certificates evidencing the existence and
amounts of such insurance with named insured as their interests may appear. No
policy shall be cancelable or subject to reduction of coverage except after
thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Landlord.
16.2 Landlord shall, at Landlord's expense, obtain and keep in force during the
term of this Lease a policy of comprehensive public liability insurance or
commercial general liability insurance with limits not less than $2,000,000,
combined single limit, insuring Landlord and Tenant against any liability
arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Building and
all areas appurtenant thereto, as their interests may appear. The limit of said
insurance shall not, however, limit the liability of the Landlord hereunder.
Landlord may carry said insurance under a blanket policy, providing, however,
said insurance by Landlord shall have a Tenant's protective liability
endorsement attached thereto. Landlord may provide any portion of such coverage
under an "excess liability" or "umbrella policy." If Landlord shall fail to
procure and maintain said insurance, Tenant may, but shall not be required to,
procure and maintain same, but at the expense of Landlord after notifying
Landlord and allowing ten (10) business days. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant
prior to occupancy of the Premises certificates evidencing the existence and
amounts of such insurance with named insured as their interests may appear. No
policy shall be cancelable or subject to reduction of coverage except after
thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Tenant.
9
16.3. In addition, if either party fails to obtain liability insurance policies
on an "occurrence basis" such party shall obtain extension policies commonly
referred to as "tail" policies at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration
of any policy which will not be renewed. All extension policies (x) shall
include coverage for all claims made after the date, of the policy not renewed,
regardless of the date such claims are made; and (y) shall have limits equal to
or greater than the policies which are not being renewed. All liability policies
shall specifically: (i) insure performance of the agreement of the party
procuring the policy, to indemnify as, set forth in Section 14 of this Lease, as
it relates to liability for injury to or death of persons and damage to
property; and (ii) provide that although the other party is named as an insured,
it shall nevertheless be entitled to recover under the policy for any loss
suffered as a result of the acts or omissions of the party procuring the
insurance policy.
16.4. All insurance which parties are obligated to maintain under any provision
of this Lease, shall be issued by insurance companies authorized to do business
in the jurisdiction in which the Premises is located, which have a "Best's
Letter Rating" of not less than "A" ("Excellent"), with no adverse "Rating
Modifier," and a "Financial Size Category" of not less than "Class VIII" (or
their then current equivalents) in the most current "Best's Key Rating Guide" or
the equivalent in a substitute or successor publication selected by Landlord.
All insurance policies shall be written as primary policy coverage, not
contributing with, or in excess of any coverage carried by the other party or
another.
17. SERVICES AND UTILITIES. Landlord agrees to furnish to the Premises
during all hours and on all days, electricity for normal lighting and fractional
horsepower office machines, heat and air conditioning, water and sanitary sewer
service required for the comfortable use and occupation of the Premises.
Landlord shall also maintain and keep lighted the common stairs, common entries
and toilet rooms in the Building of which the Premises are a part. Landlord
shall not be liable for, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any reduction of
rental by reason of Landlord's failure to furnish any of the foregoing when such
failure is caused by accident, breakage, repairs, strikes, lockouts or other
labor disturbances or labor disputes of any character, or by any other cause,
similar or dissimilar, beyond the reasonable control of Landlord. Landlord shall
not be liable under any circumstances for a loss or injury to property, however
occurring, through or in connection with or incidental to failure to furnish any
of the foregoing, except as to Landlord's negligence or tortious acts; provided,
however, that if the Tenant cannot reasonably use the Premises for the operation
of Tenant's authorized business all Rent shall xxxxx until the Premises is
reasonably suitable for the operation of Tenant's authorized business. Wherever
heat generating machines or equipment are used in the Premises which
extraordinarily affect the temperature otherwise maintained by the air
conditioning system, Landlord reserves the right to install supplementary air
conditioning units in the Premises and the reasonable cost thereof, including
the cost of installation, and the cost of operation and maintenance thereof
shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand by Landlord.
Tenant will not, without written consent of Landlord, use any
apparatus or device in the Premises, including, but without limitation thereto,
electronic data processing machines, punch card machines, and machines using in
excess of 220 volts, which will in any extraordinary way increase the amount of
electricity usually furnished or supplied for the use of the Premises as general
office space; nor connect with electric current except through electrical
outlets in the Premises, any apparatus or device, for the purpose of using
electric current. If Tenant shall require water or electric current
extraordinarily in excess of that usually furnished or supplied for the use of
the Premises as general office space, Tenant shall first procure the written
consent of Landlord, which Landlord shall not unreasonably refuse, to the use
thereof and Landlord may cause a water meter or electrical current meter to be
installed in the Premises, so as to measure the amount of water and electric
current consumed for any such use. The reasonable cost of any such meters and of
installation, maintenance and repair thereof shall be paid for by the Tenant and
Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord promptly within 20 days after demand therefor
by Landlord for the extraordinary portion of all such water and electric current
consumed as shown by said meters at the rates charged for such services by the
local public utility furnishing the same, plus any additional expense incurred
in keeping account of the water and electric current so consumed. If a separate
meter is not installed, such excess cost for such water and electric current
will be established by an estimate made by a utility company or electrical
engineer and it is agreed that the cost of hiring such person and obtaining such
estimate shall be shared equally by Landlord and Tenant.
10
18. PROPERTY TAXES. Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, before
delinquency, any and all taxes levied or assessed and which become payable
during the term hereof upon all Tenant's leasehold improvements, equipment,
furniture, fixtures and personal property located in the Premises; except that
which has been paid for by Landlord, and is the standard of the Building. In the
event any or all of Tenant's leasehold improvements, equipment, furniture,
fixtures and personal property shall be assessed and taxed with the Building,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord its share of such taxes within thirty (30) days
after receipt by Tenant from Landlord of a statement in writing setting forth
the amount of such taxes applicable to Tenant's property which statement shall
include a copy of the tax xxxx.
19. RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant shall faithfully observe and comply
with the non-discriminatory and even-handedly enforced rules and regulations
that Landlord shall, from time to time, promulgate for the use of the Premises
and the Common Facilities which are not contrary to any provision of this Lease
and do collectively not impose any significant limitation on the Tenant's use of
the Premises and the Common Facilities as set forth in this Lease and the rules
and regulations which are attached to this Lease as Exhibit B and do not
collectively impose any obligation on the part of Tenant to incur material out
of pocket expense not imposed by this Lease and the rules and regulations
attached to this Lease as Exhibit B. Landlord reserves the right, from time to
time, to make all reasonable modifications to said rules. The additions and
modifications to those rules shall be binding upon Tenant 20 days after delivery
of a copy of them to Tenant. Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the
nonperformance of any said rules by any other tenants or occupants. A copy of
the current rules and regulations are attached hereto as Exhibit B.
20. HOLDING OVER. If Tenant remains in possession of the Premises or
any part after the expiration of the term hereof, without the express written
consent of Landlord, such occupancy shall be a tenancy from month-to-month at a
rental in the amount of one and one-half times the last monthly rental, plus all
other charges payable hereunder, and upon all the terms hereof applicable to a
month-to-month tenancy.
21. ENTRY BY LANDLORD. Landlord reserves, and shall during normal
business hours upon reasonable written notice to Tenant and subject to Tenant's
security requirements, as herein defined, the right to enter the Premises,
inspect the same, supply janitorial service and any other service to be provided
by Landlord to Tenant hereunder, to submit said Premises to prospective
purchasers or during the last six months of the term to prospective tenants, to
post notices of non-responsibility, and to alter, improve or repair the Premises
and any portion of the Building of which the Premises are a part that Landlord
may reasonably deem necessary or desirable; provided, however, that: (i) to the
extent any entry upon the Premises materially interferes with the conduct of
Tenant's business and Tenant's use of the Premises for the purposes authorized
by this Lease, the Rent shall be equitably abated, and (ii) Landlord shall take
all steps reasonably required to minimize interference with Tenant's use of the
Premises, including without limitation intended, and by way of example only,
whenever feasible, by performing work outside of normal business hours. In
connection with any work to be performed by Landlord under this Lease, Landlord
may erect scaffolding and other necessary structures where reasonably required
by the character of the work to be performed, always providing that the entrance
to the Premises shall not be blocked thereby. Except for such abatement of Rent,
Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages or for any injury or inconvenience to
or interference with Tenant's business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment
of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby unless caused by
negligence or tortious acts of Landlord or Landlord's breach of its obligations
under this Section. For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall, at all
times, have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, upon and
about the Premises, excluding Tenant's vaults, safes and files and locked
interior rooms, and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which
Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency, in order to obtain
entry to the Premises without liability to Tenant except for the damage
resulting from the entry and any failure to exercise due care for Tenant's
property. Any such entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of said
means, or otherwise shall not, under any circumstances, be construed or deemed
to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an
eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof.
11
22. RECONSTRUCTION. In the event the Premises, or the Building of which
the Premises are a part, are damaged by fire or other perils covered by "special
form" casualty insurance, Landlord agrees to forthwith repair the same to
substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior to such damage;
and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that the Tenant
shall be entitled to an equitable reduction of the Rent while such repairs are
being made. Such proportionate reduction to be based upon the extent to which
the damage and the making of such repairs shall materially interfere with the
business carried on by the Tenant in the Premises. If the damage is due to the
fault or neglect of Tenant or its employees, there shall be no abatement of rent
unless the damage is covered by "special form" casualty insurance. If the
restoration of the Premises or the Building is not likely to be completed, or is
not completed, within 180 days after the date of the casualty, the Tenant shall
have the right to terminate this Lease without liability. Landlord shall give
Tenant at least 30 days prior notice of the date when the Premises would be
restored and delivered to Tenant. During any period of rent abatement or
reduction as described in this Section 22, it is agreed and understood that such
rent abatement or reduction shall commence on the date which the Premises or
portion thereof are subjected to such damage or casualty and continue until the
later of (a) the date that is thirty (30) days after the date that Landlord
provides notice to Tenant of the repair and restoration of the Premises or (b)
the date on which the Premises are restored and possession of such is delivered
to Tenant.
In the event the Premises or the Building of which the
Premises are a part are damaged as a result of any cause other than the perils
covered by fire and extended coverage insurance, then Landlord shall forthwith
repair the same within one hundred and fifty (150) days of casualty, provided
the extent of the destruction be less than ten percent (10%) of the then full
replacement cost of the Premises or the Building of which the Premises are a
part. In the event the destruction of the Premises or the Building is to an
extent greater than ten percent (10%) of the full replacement cost, then
Landlord shall have the option: (1) to repair or restore such damage, this Lease
continuing in full force and effect, but the rent to be proportionately reduced
as hereinabove in this Section provided; or (2) give notice to Tenant at any
time within thirty (30) days after such damage terminating this Lease as of the
date specified in such notice, which date shall be no less than thirty (30) and
no more than sixty (60) days after the giving of such notice. In the event of
giving such notice, this Lease shall expire and all interest of the Tenant in
the Premises shall terminate on the date so specified in such notice and the
Rent, reduced by a proportionate amount, based upon the extent, if any, to which
such damage materially interfered with the business carried on by the Tenant in
the Premises, shall be paid up to date of said such termination. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section, Landlord shall not have any
obligation whatsoever to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises when the
damage resulting from any casualty covered under this Section occurs during the
last twelve (12) months of the term of this Lease or any extension thereof and
in the event of such casualty during the last twelve (12) months of the term of
this Lease either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this
Lease by giving written notice to the other party within thirty (30) days of
such casualty; provided, however, that if there is an unexercised renewal term
of the Lease remaining, Tenant shall have the right to exercise such term by
giving Landlord notice thereof within 30 days after the date Landlord gives
Tenant notice of termination, in which event Landlord's notice of termination
shall be a nullity
Landlord shall not be required to repair any injury or damage
by fire or other casualty, or to make any repairs or replacements of any panels,
decoration, office fixtures, railings, floor coverings, partitions, or any other
property installed in the Premises by Tenant unless covered by Landlord's
insurance as part of the Building.
Except for the abatements of Rent provided for in this Lease,
The Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord
for loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Premises, or Tenant's
personal property, unless caused by Landlord, or, subject to Section 21, any
compensation or damages for inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such
damage, repair, reconstruction or restoration.
Landlord shall throughout the Lease term maintain "special form" casualty
insurance coverage for the Building and all related insurable improvements, for
their full replacement cost, with an agreed value endorsement.
12
The term "special form" insurance coverage as used in this Lease may exclude the
perils of "flood," "earthquake," and "law and ordinance" for the Building and
all related insurable improvements, for their full replacement cost, with an
agreed value endorsement.
23. DEFAULT. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events
shall constitute a default and breach of this Lease:
a. The vacating or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant,
without payment of Rent, where such failure shall continue for a period of ten
(10) days after written notice thereof by Landlord to Tenant.
b. The failure by Tenant to make any payment of rent or any
other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, as and when due, where
such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after written notice
thereof by Landlord to Tenant.
c. The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the
covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by
the Tenant, other than described in Section 23.b above, where such failure shall
continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof by
Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if the nature of Tenant's default is
such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then
Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant takes steps to commence
such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently
prosecutes such cure to completion.
d. The making by Tenant of any general assignment or general
arrangement for the benefit of creditors; or the filing by or against Tenant of
a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt, or a petition of reorganization
or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a
petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within 90 days); or the
appointment of a trustee or a receiver to take possession of substantially all
of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this
Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within 90 days; or the
attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's
assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where such
seizure is not discharged in 90 days.
e. If Landlord is in default in the performance of any
obligation under this Lease on the part of Landlord to be performed and such
default continues for a period of thirty (30) days after Tenant's written notice
to Landlord specifying the nature of the default then Tenant may exercise any
right or remedy it may possess at law or equity, which is not otherwise waived
in this Lease. If the default set forth in Tenant's notice cannot reasonably be
cured within thirty (30) days, then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in
default if (i) Landlord notifies Tenant in writing that it will cure the
default, (ii) commences to cure the default within such thirty (30)-day period,
and (iii) proceeds diligently and in good faith thereafter to cure such default
and does cure such default within a reasonable time.
24. REMEDIES IN DEFAULT. In the event of any such default or breach by
Tenant which continues uncured after the expiration of any applicable grace
period, Landlord may at any time thereafter, with notice or demand (which notice
requirement may be satisfied by the provision of notice of default from Landlord
to Tenant as set forth in Section 23, above, but only if such notice includes a
statement notifying Tenant that failure to cure such default within the
applicable grace period will result the exercise of one of Landlord's remedies
in default as set forth below), and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of
a right or remedy which Landlord may have by reason of such default or breach:
a. Terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises by
any lawful and peaceful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and
Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord. In
such event Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages
incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's default including, but not limited
to, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises; expenses of reletting,
including necessary and reasonable expenses incurred in connection with
renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys' fees, any real
estate commission actually paid (which shall be limited to (a) the real estate
commission due under the remaining term of the Lease and (b) real estate
commission due in connection with reletting the Premises, provided, however,
that Tenant shall only be responsible for item (a) until such time as the
Premises are re-let and thereafter shall be responsible for item (b) for the
time which would have encompassed the remaining term of this Lease, if it had
remained in effect); the worth at the time of award by the court having
jurisdiction thereof of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of
the term after the time of such award exceeds the amount of such rental loss for
the same period that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, with the
resulting figure discounted to present value using the Discount Rate provided in
the following sentence (and defined therein). For any sums discounted to present
value pursuant to the preceding sentence, it is agreed that the discount rate
used shall be the average of three (3) rates of interest given on high-balance
savings accounts, as the same existed on the date of award by the court, which
rates shall be determined by Landlord selecting three (3) national or regional
banks operating within Boulder County and taking the average of those three (3)
rates. The resultant rate shall be known as the Discount Rate for purposes of
this Lease. Unpaid installments of rent or other sums shall bear interest from
the date due at the rate of twenty percent (20%) per annum. In the event Tenant
shall have abandoned the Premises without payment of rent, Landlord shall have
the option of (a) taking possession of the Premises and recovering from Tenant
the amount specified in this Section, or (b) proceeding under the provisions of
the following Section 24.b.
13
b. Maintain Tenant's right to possession, in which case this
Lease shall continue in effect whether or not Tenant shall have abandoned the
Premises. In such event, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord's
rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent as
it becomes due hereunder.
c. Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to
Landlord under the laws or judicial decision of the State in which the Premises
are located.
Despite any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall have
an obligation to mitigate Landlord's damages.
25. EMINENT DOMAIN. If any portion of the Premises shall be
taken or appropriated by any public or quasi-public authority under the
power of eminent domain, or more than 15.00 percent of the Tenant's
parking spaces or any portion of the Building or Common Facilities
reasonably required for the Tenant's authorized use of the Premises,
either party shall have the right, at its option, to terminate this
Lease by giving written notice to the other party, and Landlord shall
be entitled to any and all income, rent, award, or any interest therein
whatsoever which may be paid or made in connection with such public or
quasi-public use or purpose, and Tenant shall have no claim against
Landlord for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease. If any
portion of the Premises or any portion of the Building or Common
Facilities reasonably required for the Tenant's authorized use of the
Premises is taken and neither party elects to terminate as herein
provided, the Rent thereafter to be paid shall be equitably reduced. If
more than ten percent (10%) of the Building other than the Premises may
be so taken or appropriated, Landlord shall have the right at its
option to terminate this Lease by giving thirty (30) days written
notice to Tenant and shall be entitled to the entire award as above
provided. Tenant shall, however, have the right to pursue a separate
claim for any other damage suffered as a result of such taking. If
Landlord does not terminate this Lease in accordance with this Section,
Landlord shall forwith restore the Premises, Building and Common
Facilities affected by the taking to the fullest extent possible.
26. ESTOPPEL STATEMENT. Landlord and Tenant shall at any time and from
time to time upon not less than ten (10) business days' prior written notice
from the other party execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the other party 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 Tenant's or Landlord's knowledge, as
appropriate, any uncured defaults or breaches on the part of the other party
hereunder, or specifying such breaches or defaults if any are claimed. Any such
statement may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrance of all
or any portion of the real property of which the Premises are a part.
14
27. PARKING. Tenant shall have the right to use in common with other
tenants or occupants of the Building the parking facilities of the Building,
subject to the non-discriminatory, even-handedly enforced rules and regulations
which may be established or altered by Landlord at any time or from time to time
during the term hereof. Tenant shall have the exclusive right to the use of
fifty-three (53) parking spaces, may, subject to Landlord's consent, sign the
exclusive spaces accordingly, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, may
sticker any vehicles parked in derogation of the rights conferred by this
Section. There shall be no additional rent or other charge imposed for the use
of such spaces. If any occupant of the Building does not require its pro rata
share of parking spaces, Landlord shall make reasonable efforts to assist Tenant
in Tenant's efforts to procure the use of the spaces not required by the other
occupant(s).
28. AUTHORITY OF PARTIES.
a. Corporate Authority. If Tenant is a corporation, each
individual executing this Lease on behalf of said corporation represents and

accordance with a duly adopted resolution of the managers or all of the members
of the company, whichever has the authority to do so, and that this Lease is
binding upon said company in accordance with its terms, and that Landlord is not
required to obtain any consents or approvals of any third parties with respect
to this Lease.
d. Use of Premises. Landlord, after appropriate inquiry,
represents to the Tenant that the Building and the land on which the Building is
located, may lawfully be used for administrative offices, provided, however,
that despite the foregoing, it is mutually agreed and acknowledged that Tenant
is solely responsible for conducting its own due diligence and making its own
conclusions regarding all matters relating to zoning and use. Landlord
represents and warrants that, during the Term of this Lease, it will not
commence any action to change the current zoning of the Building or land on
which the Building is located which would negatively impact Tenant.

have quiet possession of the Premises for the entire term hereof, subject to all
the provisions of this Lease.

extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to,
processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon
Landlord by terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises.

parties hereby agree that such late charges represent a fair and reasonable
estimate of the cost that Landlord will incur by reason of the late payment by
Tenant. Acceptance of such late charges 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.

of the parties hereto with respect to any matter covered or mentioned in this

sale and recognize such purchaser as the Landlord under this Lease; provided the
purchaser recognizes this Lease and all of the Tenant's rights under this
Lease..

herein, Tenant shall only be obligated under this
Section 29(n) if such bank, insurance company or other lending institution or
purchaser upon any such foreclosure or sale (a) recognizes Tenant's interest
under this Lease, (b) agrees that, so long as Tenant is not in default under
this Lease beyond any applicable cure periods, to recognize all of the Tenant's
rights under this Lease, not disturb Tenant's possession of the Premises, nor to
interfere with Tenant's use of the Building and Common Facilities, nor join
Tenant in any foreclosure or other enforcement proceeding, (c) further agrees
that despite any subordination of this Lease, the proceeds of insurance and
condemnation shall be applied to pay the costs of restoration of the Building

for personal injury or property damage), and any emergency statutory or any
other statutory remedy.
v. Arbitration. Except for an action to gain possession of the
Premises and except as provided below, any and all disputes arising under or
related to this Agreement which are not resolved through negotiations between
the parties shall be submitted to binding arbitration. If the parties fail to
reach a settlement of their dispute within fifteen (15) days after the earliest
date upon which one of the parties notified the other(s) of its desire to
attempt to resolve the dispute, then the dispute shall promptly be submitted to
arbitration by a single arbiter through the Judicial Arbiter Group, any
successor of the Judicial Arbiter Group, or any similar arbitration provider
(collectively "JAG") provided, however, that the arbitrator provided must be
either: (i)a former judge or (ii) an attorney with not less than 15 years of

of competent jurisdiction. The arbitration shall take place in Boulder,
Colorado. The arbitrator shall be bound by the law of the State of Colorado
applicable to the issues involved in the arbitration and all Colorado rules
relating to the admissibility of evidence, including, without limitation, all
relevant privileges and the attorney work product doctrine. Discovery shall be
limited to document production and four depositions by each party. All such

relief where applicable under Colorado law. The arbitrator shall issue a written
opinion setting forth her or his decision and the reasons therefor within thirty
(30) days after the arbitration proceeding is concluded. The obligation of the

way be permitted to stay or otherwise impede the progress of the arbitration
proceeding.

per year until paid.

construct certain build-out improvements to the Premises, including construction
of suspended ceilings; exterior and partitioning walls; doors, installation of
carpeting; carpet padding, painting; installation of fire sprinkling system;
HVAC, and lighting systems; and other improvements as agreed upon in accordance
with plans and specifications ("Plans") to be approved by Landlord and Tenant,
and attached hereto as Exhibit D (hereinafter collectively referred to as the
"Tenant Improvement"). Landlord and Tenant will use diligent efforts to prepare
and approve construction drawings and specifications and approve them in writing
within twenty-one (21) days after the date of this Lease. If there are no Plans
within 45 days after the date of this Lease either party shall have the right to
terminate this Lease without liability by giving notice of termination to the
other party before there are Plans. Tenant Improvements shall be completed
pursuant to the provisions of the Plans and the Work Letter attached hereto as
Exhibit E. Landlord's construction of the Building of which the Premises are a
part shall be in accordance with Landlord's "Preliminary Specifications for the

Landlord's approval of Tenant's selection of contractor, which
approval (subject to the criteria set forth below) will not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Tenant shall be
permitted by Landlord to contract directly with the contractor
of its choice ("Contractor") for completion of the Tenant
Improvements and that except for the obligation to remit
payment for the cost of such improvements in accordance with
the allowance set forth in Subsection (c), below, Landlord
shall have no liability whatsoever to Tenant with respect to
the completion of said Tenant Improvements. Tenant
acknowledges that Landlord's approval of the Contractor to
complete the Tenant Improvements shall be granted or withheld
based on objective and subjective pertinent criteria, and
shall include, among other things, Landlord's opinion
regarding the quality of work and workmanship of such
Contractor, specifically whether such quality of workmanship
meets or exceeds that which is typically performed by Xxxxxxxx
Construction, Inc. It is acknowledged that it is Landlord's
preference that Tenant utilize Xxxxxxxx Construction, Inc. for
completion of the Tenant Improvements, and Tenant agrees to
use reasonable efforts to select Xxxxxxxx Construction, Inc.
as its Contractor.
2. As of the date hereof, Tenant has identified the
following four (4) contractors as candidates for completion of
the Tenant Improvements: Xxxxxxxx Construction, Inc., Centerre
Construction, Sand Construction and Xxxxx Xxxxxx Construction.
Within ten (10) business days of execution of this Lease,
Landlord shall provide written notice to Tenant of its
acceptance or rejection of each of these candidates, which
acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned,
provided, however, that if, prior to said ten day period (and
prior to Tenant's receipt of Landlord's approval or rejection
of such four candidates), Tenant provides Landlord with
written notice of its selection of one (1) of those
contractors, then Landlord shall have three (3) business days
thereafter to respond to Tenant with approval or rejection of
said selection, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld or conditioned. If Landlord thereafter rejects said
selection, then Landlord shall provide Tenant written notice
of its approval or rejection of the remaining three (3)
candidates within the remaining portion of the ten (10)
business day time period set forth above. If Landlord rejects
any contractor, Landlord shall specify in its notice the
reasons for such rejection. Landlord represents that as of the
date of this Lease, Landlord is unaware of any reason to
reject any of the contractors identified by Tenant above, but
reserves the right to conduct further investigations regarding
such contractors in accordance with the criteria and time
frames set forth herein.. Following selection and approval of
Tenant's contractor, Tenant shall provide written notice to
Landlord confirming its selection.
21
3. If Tenant selects a Contractor which is not
Xxxxxxxx Construction, Inc. then during the construction of
the Tenant Improvements, Tenant agrees to take reasonable
steps necessary to facilitate open communication between
Landlord and Tenant's consultant Xxx Xxxxxxxxxx ("Consultant")
with the intent of keeping Landlord informed as to the status
of the Tenant Improvements and any problems encountered in
connection therewith. Said open communication includes, but is
not limited to: communication with Landlord regarding status
of the Tenant Improvements and any problems encountered in
connection therewith, availability to answer Landlord's
questions regarding all matters related to the Tenant
Improvements, and copying Landlord on all material
communication between Tenant and Consultant which relates to
the Tenant Improvements.
4. Tenant agrees to execute, in a form reasonably
acceptable to Landlord's lender, an assignment of the
construction contract between it and its Contractor, assigning
Tenant's rights under said contract to lender upon the
occurrence of any default by the Tenant under this Lease which
continues after the applicable grace period expires.
c. Landlord's allowance for Tenant Improvements is
$539,997.50, and shall be paid directly to Tenant's Contractor in
monthly installments within ten (10) days following receipt of (i) an
invoice for work performed pursuant to the Plans and (ii) a lien
waiver, executed by Contractor, acknowledging payment in full (subject
to receipt of Landlord's portion of such sums, if necessary) for work
performed pursuant to its contract with Tenant. To the extent that the
cost of said improvements is less than or exceeds $539,997.50, basic
monthly rental shall increase or decrease by amortizing the increase or
decrease over ten (10) years four (4) months at the greater of (a) 10%
per annum or (b) two percent (2%) over the interest rate secured by
Landlord in financing such amounts, or Tenant has the option of paying
up front any amount above and beyond the $539,997.50 allowance, or
prepaying any unamortized balance at anytime without premium or
penalty. By way of example only, if the cost of Tenant Improvements
increase or decrease by $1,000.00, the basic monthly rent will increase
or decrease by $13.22. The above amortization of Tenant Improvements by
Landlord shall be capped at a total per-square-foot Tenant Improvement
cost of thirty five dollars ($35.00), and all amounts spent on Tenant
Improvements above that amount shall be paid directly by Tenant at the
time such costs are incurred. In other words, Landlord will amortize up
to an additional $100,677.50 in Tenant Improvements above the
$539,997.50 described in this Subsection (c). If Landlord fails to make
any payment to the Tenant's Contractor (towards the Tenant Improvement
allowance) which is required by this Lease within ten days after the
date Tenant gives Landlord notice specifying the payment past due, then
Tenant shall have the right to make the payment which Landlord failed
to make and to offset the payment made by the Tenant against the base
rent and any other rent payable under this Lease until Tenant has been
reimbursed in full for the payments made by the Tenant, together with
interest at the rate payable under this Lease for past due payments
owed by one party to the other under Section 29(x) above.
d. Within one year of the date of completion of
construction of the core and shell portions of the Building by
Landlord, Tenant shall have the right to later demand and Landlord
shall have the obligation to correct, any defects in workmanship or
materials of said core and shell portions which could not reasonably be
observed by a visual inspection of the exposed improvements at the time
Tenant took possession.
22
e. Reasonable HVAC maintenance costs for the Premises shall be
charged monthly by Landlord to Tenant as costs are incurred.
f. Landlord shall provide an allowance of thirty thousand AND
00/100 ($30,000.00) for the burial of two (2) power poles and
related lines located directly to the north of subject
property. Tenant at tenant's sole expense shall pay for any
cost beyond the allowance of $30,000.00. This payment shall be
made within fifteen (15) days after written notice to Tenant
after the burial is completed. Before commencing such work,
and within 45 days after the date of this Lease, Landlord
shall endeavor to provide Tenant with a firm good faith
proposal for the work at a fixed or maximum cost. Tenant may
reject the proposal by giving Landlord notice within ten days
after Tenant receives the proposal, in which event Tenant
shall have no right to require the burial. If Tenant elects to
require the burial and the entire thirty thousand dollar
allowance is not used, then any amounts remaining following
such burial shall be allocated to Tenant for further tenant
improvement work. If, however, Tenant elects to not bury the
power poles described in this Subsection (f), then it is
understood that Tenant shall instead receive an additional
abatement of rent (in addition to that described in Section

2. The size, weight and configuration of such Satellite Dish

6. Tenant shall maintain any Satellite Dish and all related

23
7. Tenant shall maintain any Satellite Dish belonging to

thereof, or in no event later than fifteen (15) days
thereafter, the cost and expense of said removal, and any
necessary repair of the roof or premises by reason of said
Satellite Dish removal shall be borne by the Tenant.
The installation, existence, maintenance and operation of any
Satellite Dish shall be lawful under all applicable laws,
ordinances, rules, orders, regulations, etc., of any federal,
state, local or other authorities having jurisdiction, and
Tenant, in advance and at its sole expense and in a timely
manner, shall obtain all licenses and permits, perform all
monitoring, make all reports, and take all other steps
necessary to permit the lawful installation and continued
lawful operation of the Satellite Dish.
i. Tenant shall have the option to extend this Lease for two (2)
additional successive terms of five (5) years each. In the event Tenant desires
to exercise said option, Tenant shall give written notice of such fact to
Landlord not less than two hundred seventy (270) days prior to the expiration of
the then current term of this Lease. In the event of such exercise, this Lease
Agreement shall be automatically extended for the additional term.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this option shall be void and of no force or
effect if the Tenant is in default hereunder after the expiration of the
applicable grace period, either as of the date of the Tenant's exercise of said
option or as of the date of the commencement of the option or additional term.
a. Rent. Tenant shall pay the Fair Market Rental Value of the
Premises (as such term is defined below) as base rent during the first
five year option period. Tenant shall pay the then-current Fair Market
Rental Value of the Premises as base rent during the second five year
option period.
b. Calculation of Fair Market Rental Value. Landlord and
Tenant will attempt to agree upon a Fair Market Rental Value of the
Premises (expressed on a dollar per square foot per year basis) as
determined by comparison to parcels of similar size located in property
in or near the City of Boulder, Colorado, having comparable
development, use and density capability, containing existing buildings
of comparable quality and such other characteristics as may be deemed
relevant by a subject appraiser whose selection is outlined herein (the
"Fair Market Rental Value").
Landlord shall select an independent MAI real estate appraiser with at
least ten (10) years' experience in appraising commercial real property
in the City of Boulder, Colorado (a "Qualified Appraiser"). The
Qualified Appraiser selected by the Landlord shall be referred to as
the "Landlords Appraiser". Within thirty (30) days of being selected by
the Landlord, the Landlord's appraiser shall determine the Fair Market
Rental Value of the Premises in accordance with the appraisal standards
set forth above and shall immediately give the Landlord and the Tenant
written notification of his determination.
If the Tenant agrees with the Landlord's Appraiser's determination of
the Fair Market Rental Value, such Fair Market Rental Value shall be
multiplied by 18,305, and the resultant amount shall be divided by
twelve (12) to arrive at the new base monthly rental ("Base Monthly
Rental"). The new Base Monthly Rental shall become effective beginning
with the first month of the Option Term. If the Tenant does not agree
with the Landlord's Appraiser's determination of Fair Market Rental
Value, the Tenant shall have the right to select its own Qualified
Appraiser to determine the Fair Market Rental Value. If the Tenant does
elect to appoint a Qualified Appraiser, (the Tenant's Appraiser"), the
Tenant shall select the Tenant's Appraiser within thirty (30) business
days after receiving the Landlord's Appraiser's Determination of Fair
Market Rental Value. The Tenant's Appraiser shall make his own
determination of the Fair Market Rental Value in accordance with the
provisions set forth above, within thirty (30) business days of being
selected by the Tenant and shall immediately give the Landlord and the
Tenant written notice of his determination.
24
If the Fair Market Rental Value as determined by the Landlord's
Appraiser and the Tenant's Appraiser, respectively, differ by an amount
which is equal to or less than five percent (5%) of the Fair Market
Rental Value determined by the Landlord's Appraiser, then the
arithmetic mean average of the two Fair Market Rental Values shall
constitute the fair Market Rental Value used to calculate the new Base
Monthly Rental which will be in effect for the Option Term. If the Fair
Market Rental Value determined by the Landlord's Appraiser and the
Tenant's Appraiser's determination of the Fair Market Rental Value
differ by more than five percent (5%), the Landlord's Appraiser and the
Tenant's Appraiser shall agree upon and select a third Qualified
appraiser who shall be independent of and have no prior or existing
affiliation or relationship with either the Landlord or the Tenant (the
"Independent Appraiser"). If Landlord's Appraiser and Tenant's
Appraiser fail to agree upon and select an Independent Appraiser within
ten (10) days of the decision to seek an Independent Appraiser, then
said Independent Appraiser shall be selected by the agreement of
Landlord's legal counsel and Tenant's legal counsel. Within ten (10)
business days of being appointed, the Independent Appraiser shall,
after exercising his best professional judgement, choose either the
Landlord's Appraiser's or the Tenant's Appraiser's determination of the
Fair Market Rental Value whichever best represents the Fair Market
Rental Value at that point in time. Upon making such a selection, the
Independent Appraiser shall immediately give the Landlord and the
Tenant written notice of this selection of the Fair Market Rental
Value. The Fair Market Rental Value selected by the Independent
Appraiser shall be used to calculate the new Base Monthly Rental which
will be in effect during the Extension Option, and such selection by
the Independent appraiser shall be binding and conclusive upon the
Landlord and the Tenant.
All Appraisal fees incurred hereunder shall be shared equally by the
Landlord and Tenant.
j. Tenant shall have the right to use its own Architect for
the Plans and Tenant Improvements upon Landlord's approval of the architect
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The
Landlord hereby approves B2SJ. All architectural fees will be paid from the
Tenant Improvement Allowance. Tenant's architect shall coordinate with
Landlord's architect for review of documents and submittal of construction
documents to the City of Boulder. Landlord's architect shall not incur expenses
that will exceed $1,000 in coordinating with Tenant's architect for review of
documents and submittal of construction documents to the City of Boulder.
However, if Landlord's architect finds an error in Tenant's plans that shall
result in additional work on behalf of Landlord's architect, then Tenant could
incur incremental costs associated with rectifying such errors.
k. Tenant shall be provided its pro rata share of the existing
monument signage and Tenant's design shall be approved in writing by Landlord,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
l. Whenever the consent or approval of either party is
required under this Lease, such consent or approval shall be deemed given unless
within 20 days after the consent or approval is requested, notice is given
specifying reasonable reasons why consent or approval is denied; provided the
text of this Section is included in the request for consent or approval.
m. Landlord shall not alter, improve or add to the Building or
the land on which the Building is located in any manner which will materially
adversely affect the Tenant's authorized use of the Premises, access to or from
the Premises, the Common Facilities existing as of the date of this Lease or the
parking granted to the Tenant under this Lease.
n. Landlord represents and warrants that on the date the Lease
term commences the mechanical systems in the Building and Premises,
including without limitation intended, HVAC, plumbing and electrical
systems are in good working order, and the structure of the Building
including the roof is in good condition and free from leaks.
o. Landlord warrants and represents that so long as the amount
of computer equipment, machinery and other related office equipment
used in the Premises is not in excess of the amount of equipment
utilized in a typical administrative office and, provided that adequate
measures are taken by Tenant to address additional cooling needs that
may be necessary for Tenant's computer equipment and server rooms
within the Premises, the HVAC for the Building has and will have
sufficient capacity to maintain 70 degrees Fahrenheit when the outside
temperature is higher than 70 degrees Fahrenheit and will be able to
maintain 72 degrees Fahrenheit when the outside temperature is less
than 72 degrees Fahrenheit.
25
p. Landlord shall maintain in good condition and repair, the two
venting systems currently in place under the Building, which were designed to
remove or reduce any risk to occupants of the Building which could be caused if
vapors were to migrate from the soil. The venting system located in the air
space between the top of the plastic sheeting over the gravel and the first
floor concrete is and shall remain in operation throughout the term of this
Lease, except for any period of time that its operation is unwarranted in the
opinion of a duly qualified expert. The second venting system beneath the
plastic sheeting and gravel shall be connected to a vacuum blower and commence
and remain in operation, during such period of time as its operation is
warranted in the opinion of a duly qualified expert. Landlord shall, at such
times as is warranted in the opinion of a duly qualified expert, engage a duly
qualified expert to: (i) monitor the air beneath the first floor concrete; (ii)
recommend any change in the operation of the venting systems or other action
which is appropriate; and (iii) summarize in writing, his or her findings,
conclusions and recommendations. Further, Landlord shall promptly take any
action which the Landlord's duly qualified expert opines is warranted.
26

first written above.
