written notice to Landlord at least five (5) business days prior to the termination date, and (ii) if Tenant exercises its right to terminate the lease of Suite 1150 as set forth in the foregoing clause (i), Tenant shall vacate Suite 1150 not later than the termination date set forth in Tenant’s notice and, if Tenant later elects in Tenant’s sole and absolute discretion to again lease and occupy Suite 1150 prior to the Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises Delivery Date, then Suite 1150 shall be incorporated in the Lease upon the terms existing as of the date of the date of termination under clause (i) (i.e., the terms set forth in the Second Amendment as modified by this Section 3), by delivering written notice to Landlord at least five (5) business days prior to the date Tenant elects to have Suite 1150 incorporated in the Lease hereunder upon the terms set forth in this Section 3 (without the necessity of further documentation other than the foregoing notice); and (c) upon the Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises Delivery Date, Suite 1150 will become part of the Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises.

 

4. Contingency for Delivery of Expansion Premises; Anticipated Delivery Dates and New Expansion Premises Term.

4.1 Landlord has represented to Tenant, and hereby represents and warrants to Tenant, as follows (a) Each of the suites comprising the Expansion Premises is currently occupied by tenants pursuant to leases with Landlord; and (b) commencing not later than the date of mutual execution of this Third Amendment, Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, use its diligent best efforts to enforce the surrender provisions of existing leases for the Expansion Premises, relocate certain existing tenants to other space in the Building and/or enter into other agreements requiring the existing tenants to vacate and surrender possession of their premises prior to the anticipated Delivery Dates (as defined in Section 4.2 below) for the Expansion Premises specified in this Section 4 all in order to timely deliver the Expansion Premises to Tenant in the condition required (in all material respects) under this Third Amendment on or before the anticipated Delivery Dates (including, without limitation, by making commercially reasonable relocation payments and concessions to tenants, and having Landlord’s contractors work overtime, if necessary). Landlord acknowledges that timing is critical to Tenant in the delivery of the Expansion Premises on or before the anticipated Delivery Dates, and Tenant would not have entered into this Third Amendment but for Landlord’s assurances that Landlord would be able to deliver to Tenant exclusive possession of the Expansion Premises, in the condition required herein (in all material respects), by the applicable anticipated Delivery Dates.

If Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Tenant on the anticipated Delivery Dates due to the existing tenants remaining in possession in any of the suites comprising the Expansion Premises, despite Landlord’s use of its best efforts to obtain exclusive possession of all of such existing tenants’ premises as set forth above, this Third Amendment shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any damage resulting from Landlord’s inability to deliver such possession except as provided in Section 4.3 below.

Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense and not as part of the Allowance (as defined in Exhibit B), deliver exclusive possession of the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises and Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises to Tenant in the condition described below in Section 4.2 (in all material respects) so that Tenant may commence the construction of the Improvements (as such term is defined in Exhibit B) on the respective Delivery Dates specified below. Tenant’s occupancy of the Expansion Premises from and after the Delivery Dates and prior to the Expansion Premises Commencement Dates (each such period being referred to as an “Access Period”) shall be upon all of the terms and conditions of the Lease, as amended (including required insurance coverage), except that Tenant shall not be obligated to pay Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional Rent for the Expansion Premises, or, during Normal Business Hours, Building standard HVAC, janitorial or security services for the Expansion Premises until the respective Expansion Premises Commencement Date, provided that during each Access Period Tenant shall pay for Excess HVAC in accordance with the Lease, and any above-standard janitorial or security services voluntarily requested by Tenant. Tenant’s contractor parking and other vendor parking and, subject to reasonable advance scheduling, their use of the freight elevator(s), loading docks, hoists and other like items during each Access Period shall be free of charge in connection with work being performed in the Expansion Premises and Existing Premises (with respect to the Improvements). Landlord shall make available reasonably sufficient parking in the Building parking facility for such contractors and vendors. During each Access Period Tenant shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable administrative control and supervision with respect to the Expansion Premises. Tenant shall be entitled to construct the Improvements in the Expansion Premises and Existing Premises in accordance with and subject to

the terms of Exhibit B. Upon delivery, Tenant shall be entitled to possess, occupy, improve and use the entire applicable portion of the Expansion Premises as of the applicable Delivery Date and Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional Rent for such Expansion Premises until the applicable Expansion Premises Commencement Date for such Expansion Premises. To Landlord’s knowledge, Landlord has received no written notice in effect as of the date of this Third Amendment of any Code or other legal violations relating to the Expansion Premises or Existing Premises, or relating to the Building that would increase the cost of, or time to construct, the Improvements.

4.2 The date that Landlord grants Tenant exclusive possession of the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises, in the condition required in all material respects by this Third Amendment, shall be referred to as the “Tenth Floor Expansion Premises Delivery Date” and the date that Landlord grants Tenant exclusive possession of the Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises, in the condition required in all material respects by this Third Amendment, shall be referred to as the “Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises Delivery Date” (sometimes referred to individually as a “Delivery Date”, and collectively as the “Delivery Dates”). Each Delivery Date shall not be deemed to have occurred until the applicable Expansion Premises have been delivered to Tenant in the condition required in all material respects under this Third Amendment and Tenant has been granted exclusive possession and access to each suite comprising the applicable floor of the Expansion Premises. The anticipated date for the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises Delivery Date is September 2, 2014, and the anticipated date for the Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises Delivery Date is November 3, 2014. The actual Tenth Floor Expansion Premises Delivery Date and the actual Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises Delivery Date (and the Notice Period Expiration Date and the Early Termination Date, as each such term is defined in Section 11.4), once each is established, shall be documented in a letter prepared by Landlord and executed by Landlord and Tenant promptly after each of the Delivery Dates occurs.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Third Amendment, on each respective Delivery Date Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense and not as part of the Allowance (as defined in Exhibit B), deliver the Expansion Premises to Tenant, and Tenant shall accept each of the Expansion Premises, in its “as-is” condition, provided that Landlord shall deliver exclusive possession of each portion of the Expansion Premises to Tenant in accordance with the base building definition attached hereto as Exhibit C, in broom-clean condition and free of any tenancies, subject to Landlord’s obligations under the Lease and this Third Amendment, and except for any latent defects of which Tenant notifies Landlord in writing within twelve (12) months after the date of delivery of each of the Expansion Premises to Tenant, and subject to the following representations and warranties by Landlord as of each Delivery Date: (a) the Building and mechanical systems serving the Expansion Premises shall be in proper working order and repair; and (b) the Building systems serving the Expansion Premises shall provide electrical and HVAC capacity for standard office use consistent with Class A buildings in the Woodland Hills Area, provided that (i) occupancy in each floor of the Expansion Premises is, on average, no more than six and one-half (6.50) persons for every 1,000 square feet of Usable Area in the Expansion Premises, and (ii) Tenant does not use in the Expansion Premises any above-standard equipment that, in the aggregate with Tenant’s other electrical equipment in the Expansion Premises consumes above-standard levels of electricity or otherwise overloads the Building’s electrical systems or creates any safety hazards. Tenant may increase its permissible occupancy density ratio in the Expansion Premises after this Third Amendment is executed from (for each floor) six and one-half (6.50) persons per 1,000 square feet of Usable Area in the Expansion Premises to up to seven and one-half (7.50) persons per 1,000 square feet of Usable Area in the Expansion Premises, on average per floor, as long as Tenant pays for installation of additional VAV boxes, to the extent reasonably necessary as a result of such increase in density to reasonably accommodate the Building systems requirements of the increased density. In such event, Tenant shall deliver notice to Landlord and promptly thereafter Landlord and Tenant shall meet and confer to reasonably agree upon the contractor to perform the work and the plans and specifications for such work.

4.3 Failure to Deliver Expansion Premises By Date Certain.

(a) In the event the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises Delivery Date has not occurred on or before September 2, 2014 for any reason, then, without limiting the following provisions of this Section 4.3(a) or Sections 4.3(b) or 4.3(c) below, Tenant shall receive a day for day abatement of Rent due for the entire Premises (including, without limitation, the Existing Premises, the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises and the Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises)

5.1 Tenth Floor Expansion Premises Commencement Date. The lease of the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises shall commence on the date that is the earlier of (a) the date Tenant occupies any material portion of the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises, and conducts material business therein during such occupancy (in a manner that would otherwise indicate that Tenant has accepted the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises) and (b) the one hundred-fiftieth (150th) day after the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises Delivery Date (the “Tenth Floor Expansion Premises Commencement Date”) and shall end, unless extended or sooner terminated as otherwise provided herein, at 11:59 p.m. local time on the last calendar day of the calendar month which occurs eight (8) years after the Initial Expansion Premises Commencement Date, as defined in Section 5.2 (the “Termination Date”). As of the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises Commencement Date, the definition of “Premises” in the Lease shall be revised to include the Existing Premises and the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises (and the Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises, if applicable) for all purposes under the Lease, and the Usable Area, Rentable Area and Tenant Share contained therein (and set forth in Section 3 above) shall be deemed to comprise the Premises.

If such action or inaction is not cured by Landlord within two (2) business days of Landlord’s receipt of such Landlord Delay Notice, then the Landlord Delay shall be deemed to have occurred as of the expiration of such two (2) business day period. A delay in construction of the Improvements due to a Tenant Delay (as defined in Exhibit B, attached to and part of the Original Lease), any Force Majeure event or a delay by any governmental authority (including but not limited to the City of Los Angeles) shall not be deemed a Landlord Delay. Any Landlord Delay Notice shall be sent to the notice address set forth in the Lease with copies to (a) to the property manager at the management office of the Building; and to (b) Douglas Emmett Management LLC, 808 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 200, Santa Monica, California 90401, Attention: Leasing Legal Department Manager.

5.3 Temporary Lease of Swing Space.

Such temporary possession shall be upon all the same terms and conditions as are contained in the Lease for the Existing Premises (including, without limitation, with respect to utilities and services to be provided by Landlord, and the ratio for parking permits allocated and parking discounts available to Tenant), except as provided in this Section 5.3 and provided that (i) Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional Rent (except to the extent the definition of the term “Additional Rent” includes any services Tenant voluntary requests with respect to which the Lease provides for payment by Tenant, such as but not limited to Excess HVAC) for the Temporary Space and (ii) Tenant shall be permitted to occupy the Temporary Space for a time period commencing upon the date Tenant first occupies the Temporary Space (estimated to be one day after the mutual execution of this Third Amendment, and which Tenant may do at any time after mutual execution of this Third Amendment), until the date that is thirty (30) days after the last Expansion Premises Commencement Date (“Temporary Space Expiration Date”). If Tenant fails to timely vacate the entire Temporary Space on or before the Temporary Space Expiration Date, Tenant shall. commencing on the day immediately after the Temporary Space Expiration Date, pay Landlord for any period of occupancy thereafter Fixed Monthly Rent for the Temporary Space at the rate of $2.00 per rentable square foot per month (pro-rated for any partial month of occupancy) through and including the date Tenant surrenders possession of the Temporary Space. If Tenant fails to deliver possession of the Temporary Space to Landlord after the expiration of ninety (90) days after Temporary Space Expiration Date, then commencing on the ninety-first day (91st) day after the Temporary Space Expiration Date, the Fixed Monthly Rent for the Temporary Space shall t be increased to $2.19 per rentable square foot per month through and including the date Tenant surrenders possession of the Temporary Space. Except as set forth in this Third Amendment, Tenant shall accept the Temporary Space in its “as-is” condition, and shall maintain the Temporary Space in the condition received, ordinary wear and tear and casualty damage and acts or omissions of Landlord (or any Landlord Parties) excepted, perform any repairs required due to damage to the Premises caused by Tenant (subject to Section 19.4 of the Original Lease), and shall keep the Temporary Space neat and clean during Tenant’s occupancy thereof, at Tenant’s sole cost (and Tenant shall otherwise not have any maintenance or repair obligations with respect to the Temporary Space). Except as set forth in this Third Amendment, Landlord makes no representations or warranties regarding the Temporary Space, provided that Landlord shall deliver exclusive possession of the Temporary Space to Tenant upon mutual execution and delivery of this Third Amendment, in broom-clean condition and free of any tenancies, subject to Landlord’s obligations under the Lease and this Third Amendment, and except for any latent defects of which Tenant notifies Landlord in writing, and subject to the following representations and warranties by Landlord: (a) the Building and

mechanical systems serving the Temporary Space shall be in proper working order and repair; and (b) the Building systems serving the Temporary Space shall provide electrical and HVAC capacity for standard office use consistent with Class A buildings in the Woodland Hills Area, provided that (i) occupancy of the Temporary Space is, on average, no more than six and one-half (6.50) persons for every 1,000 square feet of Usable Area in the Temporary Space, and (ii) Tenant does not use in the Temporary Space any above-standard equipment that, in the aggregate with Tenant’s other electrical equipment in the Temporary Space consumes above-standard levels of electricity or otherwise overloads the Building’s electrical systems or creates any safety hazards. Tenant may increase its permissible occupancy density ratio in the Temporary Space after this Third Amendment is executed from six and one-half (6.50) per 1,000 square feet of Usable Area in the Temporary Space to up to seven and one-half (7.50) persons per 1,000 square feet of Usable Area in the Temporary Space, as long as Tenant pays for installation of additional VAV boxes, to the extent reasonably necessary as a result of such increase to reasonably accommodate the Building systems requirements of the increased density. In such event, Tenant shall deliver notice to Landlord and promptly thereafter Landlord and Tenant shall meet and confer to reasonably agree upon the contractor to perform the work and the plans and specifications for such work. Tenant may perform minor improvements in the Temporary Space at Tenant’s sole cost and expense (including, without limitation, the demolition work shown on Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof), provided that the plans for such work (other than for the demolition of the walls depicted on Exhibit C) shall be subject to Landlord’s prior review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The reference in Exhibit C to preserving the doors shall mean that Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, be responsible for the removal and storage of such doors. It shall be reasonable for Landlord to object to any improvements that will leave the Temporary Space in a condition that Landlord reasonably determines is not marketable unless Tenant agrees to restore the Temporary Space in accordance with plans reasonably approved by Landlord and repair any damage caused thereby, at Tenant’s sole cost (subject to Section 19.4 of the Original Lease); provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in the Lease, Tenant shall have the right, and Landlord hereby approves Tenant’s plan to demolish any or all of the walls marked for demolition in the Temporary Space as depicted on Exhibit C attached hereto, and shall not have any obligation to restore any such demolished walls or other items relating thereto. Tenant shall surrender the Temporary Space to Landlord in broom-clean condition, free of debris and trash and any of Tenant’s personal property, furniture, fixtures and equipment that, with respect to new improvements, do not otherwise become a part of the Real Property, pursuant to the provisions contained in Section 7.2 of the Original Lease, and Tenant shall not otherwise have any restoration obligations with respect to the Temporary Space; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may leave, and shall not be obligated to remove from the Temporary Space, any and all cabling and wiring (including, without limitation, cabling and wiring installed by Tenant). In addition, subject to Section 19.4 of the Original Lease, upon surrender of the Temporary Space Tenant shall repair any damage caused by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense.

6.1 Existing Premises Fixed Monthly Rent.

The Fixed Monthly Rent for the Existing Premises for time period through December 31, 2017 shall be as set forth in the Lease. For the avoidance of doubt, Tenant did not exercise its right to an advance by Landlord of up to $7.50 per square foot of Usable Area as “Excess Improvements” (as defined in Exhibit B to the Original Lease) and as a result there is not, and shall not be, any Amortization Rent payable under Section 3.1(c) of the Original Lease or otherwise.

So long as Landlord has not terminated the Lease prior to its then scheduled expiration date in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lease as a result of a material default of Tenant under the Lease beyond all applicable notice and cure periods, the entire Rent Deferral Amount shall be abated and forgiven as of the Termination Date; provided, however, that if Landlord has terminated the Lease prior to its then scheduled expiration date in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lease as a result of a material default of Tenant under the Lease beyond all applicable notice and cure periods, then (a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the entire Rent Deferral Amount due for the months of the Term prior to the occurrence of such material default, and (b) Tenant shall not be entitled to any additional or future deferral of Fixed Monthly Rent.

7. Credit Enhancements.

Concurrent with Tenant’s execution and tendering to Landlord of this Third Amendment, Tenant shall tender to Landlord the sum of $[***], which amount Landlord shall add to the Security Deposit already held by Landlord, so that thereafter, through the New Expansion Term, provided the same is not otherwise applied, Landlord shall hold a total of $[***]as a Security Deposit on behalf of Tenant. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, and all other laws, statutes, ordinances or other governmental rules, regulations or requirements now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated, which (i) establish the time frame by which Landlord must refund a security deposit under a lease, and/or (ii) provide that Landlord may claim from the Security Deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by Tenant or to clean the Premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums specified in Lease Article 18 and/or those sums reasonably necessary to compensate Landlord for any loss or damage caused by Tenant’s breach of the Lease or the acts or omission of Tenant or any Tenant Party (as defined in the Lease).

7.2 Modifications to the Letter of Credit. Landlord is the beneficiary under a certain Irrevocable Standby Letter of Credit No ### dated January 13, 2011 issued by Silicon Valley Bank (the “Letter of Credit”) in the principal amount of $[***] (the “LC Amount”). The Letter of Credit was issued in connection with Article 27 of the Original Lease as collateral for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under the Lease. Article 27 of the Original Lease provides, among other things, that the LC Amount shall be reduced on certain dates and in certain amounts as more particularly set forth in the last grammatical paragraph of Article 27. The final date of expiry of the Letter of Credit is December 15, 2017. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that the terms of Article 27 of the Original Lease are hereby amended as follows:

(a) The final date of expiry of the Letter of Credit shall be sixty (60) days after the Termination Date as defined above in this Third Amendment (“New Letter of Credit Expiration Date”); and

(b) The LC Amount shall remain the LC Amount without reduction through the New Letter of Credit Expiration Date, and the last grammatical paragraph of Article 27 of the Original Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and shall be of no force or effect.

On or before July 31, 2014, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, a replacement Letter of Credit or amendment to the Letter of Credit which incorporates the changes set forth above in clauses (a) and (b).

 

8. Proposition 13. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Lease, if at any time commencing on the Initial Expansion Premises Commencement Date and expiring on the last calendar day of the sixtieth (60”) full calendar month thereafter (“Protection Period”), any sale, transfer or change in ownership of, or construction relating to, the Building or Project, or any portion thereof or any interest therein, is consummated and, solely as a result of such sale, transfer or change in ownership, or construction, all or part of the Building or Project is reassessed (“Reassessment”) for real estate tax purposes by the appropriate government authority under the terms of Proposition 13, the terms of this Section 8 shall apply. In the event Proposition 13 is repealed or modified, the provisions of this Section 8 shall be applied as if no such repeal or modification was effective.

8.1 Tax Increase. For purposes of the Lease, as amended hereby, the term “Tax Expenses” shall mean collectively, all general and special real estate taxes, increases in assessments or special assessments and any other ad valorem taxes, rates, levies and assessments paid during a calendar year (or portion thereof or any interest therein) upon or with respect to the Building and the personal property used by Landlord to operate the Building, whether paid to any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, and all taxes specifically imposed in lieu of any such taxes (but excluding taxes referred to in Section 3.4 of the Original Lease for which Tenant or other tenants in the Building or Project are liable), and Appeal Fees (as defined in Article 4 of the Original Lease) but solely to the extent that the Appeal Fees result directly in a reduction of taxes otherwise payable by Tenant. For purposes of the Lease, “Tax Increase” shall mean that portion of Tax Expenses, as calculated immediately following any such Reassessment that is attributable solely to the Reassessment, and all increases relating to such portion (including, without limitation, annual statutory increases). Accordingly, a Tax Increase shall not include any portion of Tax Expenses as calculated immediately following the Reassessment that is attributable to:

(i) any assessment immediately prior to the Reassessment of the value of the Real Property, Building, the base Building, or the tenant improvements located in the Building; or

(ii) assessments pending immediately before the Reassessment that were conducted during, and to the extent included in, that Reassessment; or

(iii) except with respect to the Tax Increase, as set forth above, the annual inflationary increase in real estate taxes permitted under California law but not in excess of two percent (2%) per annum; or.

 

13


[***] = CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO THIS OMITTED INFORMATION.

 

(iv) any real property taxes and assessments incurred solely during the Expansion Premises Base Year (as defined below) which are included in the calculation of Tax Expenses for the Expansion Premises Base Year, it being understood that all reassessments with respect to transactions occurring during (and prior) to the Expansion Premises Base Year or Existing Premises Base Year, as applicable, will be included as part of Tax Expenses for the Expansion Premises Base Year or Existing Premises Base Year, as applicable.

(a) During the first two (2) years of the Protection Period, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any portion the Tax Increase allocable to any Reassessment (or any increases based on such portion);

(b) During the third year of the Protection Period Tenant shall only be obligated to pay twenty-five percent (25%) of the Tax Increase allocable to any Reassessment that would otherwise be included in Operating Expenses (or any increases based on such portion);

(c) During the fourth year of the Protection Period Tenant shall only be obligated to pay fifty percent (50%) of the Tax Increase allocable to any Reassessment that would otherwise be included in Operating Expenses (or any increases based on such portion);

(d) During the fifth year of the Protection Period Tenant shall only be obligated to pay seventy-five percent (75%) of the Tax Increase allocable to any Reassessment that would otherwise be included in Operating Expenses (or any increases based on such portion);

After the expiration of the Protection Period and thereafter through the New Expansion Premises Term, the 100% of any Tax Increase allocable to any Reassessment shall be included as part of Tax Expenses, and this Section 8 shall have no force or effect.

The amount of Tax Expenses which Tenant is not obligated to pay and will not be obligated to pay during the initial Lease Term in connection with any such Reassessment shall be sometimes referred to hereafter as a “Proposition 13 Protection Amount.” If the occurrence of any such Reassessment is reasonably foreseeable by Landlord and the Proposition 13 Protection Amount attributable to such Reassessment can be reasonably quantified or estimated for each year during the Protection Period commencing with the year in which such Reassessment will occur, then upon notice to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to purchase the Proposition 13 Protection Amount relating to the Reassessment, at any time during the initial Lease Term, by paying to Tenant an amount equal to the Proposition 13 Purchase Price (as defined below), provided that the right of any successor of Landlord to exercise its right of repurchase hereunder shall not apply to any Reassessment which results from the event pursuant to which such successor of Landlord became the Landlord under this Lease. As used herein, “Proposition 13 Purchase Price” shall mean the present value of the Proposition 13 Protection Amount remaining during the initial Term, as of the date of payment of the Proposition 13 Purchase Price by Landlord. Such present value shall be calculated (i) by using the portion of the Proposition 13 Protection Amount attributable to each remaining year in the initial Term (as though the portion of such Proposition 13 Protection Amount benefited Tenant at the end of each year), as the amounts to be discounted, and (ii) by using discount rates for each amount to be discounted equal (A) the average rates of yield for United States Treasury Obligations with maturity dates as close as reasonably possible to the end of each year during which the portions of the Proposition 13 Protection Amount would have benefited Tenant, which rates shall be those in effect as of Landlord’s exercise of its right to purchase, plus (B) two percent (2%) per annum. Upon such payment of the Proposition 13 Purchase Price, the protection provisions of this Section 8 shall not apply to any Tax Increase attributable to the Reassessment. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that where Landlord is required to reasonably estimate the Proposition 13 Purchase Price amount in order to exercise its repurchase right hereunder, and such price is deemed to be estimated because a Reassessment has not yet occurred, then when such Reassessment occurs, if Landlord has underestimated the Proposition 13 Purchase Price it shall within a commercially reasonable time period account to Tenant for the balance of the Proposition 13 Purchase Price due Tenant as a Rent credit, and if Landlord overestimates the Proposition 13 Purchase Price, then upon notice by Landlord to Tenant, Rent next due shall be increased by the amount of such overestimation. If Tenant provides notice to Landlord that Tenant disputes the Proposition 13 Purchase Price offered Tenant by Landlord prior to any such Reassessment the Landlord agrees to place the amount that is disputed between the parties (with the undisputed amount being paid to Tenant) into an interest bearing escrow account in joint names until such

Reassessment takes place and all Proposition 13 Purchase Price amount can be correctly calculated to the satisfaction of the parties and adjustments made to the amount to be paid to Tenant, including the release of moneys held in escrow. Where the Landlord has a signed tri-party agreement with the purchaser or transferee from the Landlord and Tenant entered into prior to any transfer, sale or change of ownership of the Building or Project that will trigger Reassessment and the parties have agreed to provide Tenant any portion of the Proposition 13 Purchase Price underpaid by Landlord as a credit against the next rent due until the same has been fully exhausted then at Tenant’s election such underpayment may be recovered during the Term by way of rent credit. If in anticipation of the transfer, sale or change of ownership of the Building or Project the Landlord has paid Tenant the Proposition 13 Purchase Price and following such payment Tenant is notified in writing by Landlord that the transfer, sale or change of ownership of the Building or Project has been aborted and will not proceed then Tenant shall, following reasonably enquiry to confirm no such transfer, sale or change of ownership has taken place, upon Tenant’s receipt of reasonable evidence thereof, return the Proposition 13 Purchase Price to Landlord within a reasonable period of time after receipt of written notice demanding such reimbursement, less amounts overpaid as Tax Expenses due to the transaction in question, and less Tenant’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transaction in question.

 

9. Proposition 8. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Lease, the amount of Tax Expenses for the Expansion Premises Base Year and the Existing Premises Base Year, as applicable, shall each be calculated without taking into account any decreases in taxes obtained in connection with Proposition 8, and, therefore, the Tax Expenses in the applicable Base Year may be greater than those actually incurred by Landlord, but shall, nonetheless, be the Tax Expenses for each of the Expansion Premises Base Year and the Existing Premises Base Year, as applicable, under the Lease; provided that (a) any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in securing any Proposition 8 reduction shall not be deducted from Tax Expenses nor included in Tax Expenses for purposes of the Lease (and shall be at Landlord’s sole cost and expense), and (b) tax refunds under Proposition 8 shall not be deducted from Tax Expenses nor refunded to Tenant, but rather shall otherwise be the sole property of Landlord. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that this paragraph is not intended to in any way affect (i) the inclusion in Tax Expenses of the statutory annual increase in Tax Expenses (currently 2% per annum), or (ii) the inclusion or exclusion of Tax Expenses pursuant to the terms of Proposition 13, which shall be governed pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 8).

 

10. Parking Permits; Parking Discounts.

10.1 Expansion Premises. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in the Lease, as amended, throughout the New Expansion Premises Term, with respect to the Expansion Premises, Tenant shall have the right but not the obligation to purchase up to five (5) parking permits per one thousand (1,000) square feet of Rentable Area in the Expansion Premises (which equates to 176 permits), of which twelve (12) permits shall be, at Tenant’s sole option, for reserved parking stalls on the “G” (ground) level accessed at the Canoga Avenue entrance, or the “Bl” level (i.e., the 1st underground level) as designated by Tenant. Tenant’s reserved spaces under the Lease (including, without limitation, with respect to the Existing Premises) shall be non-tandem and located on such “G” level and “Bl” level, and, to the extent available in the Building parking facility, shall be non-compact (i.e., full-sized) spaces on such “G” level and “Bl” level, or any other level in the Building parking facility mutually agreed upon between Landlord and Tenant. Subject to availability, Landlord shall allow Tenant to relocate any of its reserved spaces to other available spaces in the Building parking facility. Except for the discount specified in Section 10.3 below, and notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Lease, Tenant’s parking permits shall allow Tenant to park in the Building parking facility at the posted monthly parking rates and charges then in effect, including any and all applicable taxes, provided that such rates may be changed from time to time, in Landlord’s sole discretion, subject to the last sentence of this paragraph. The parking permit rates in effect as of the date of this Third Amendment are as follows: $93.00 per month per single unreserved permit (including City of Los Angeles taxes), and $148.00 per month per single reserved permit (including City of Los Angeles taxes). Landlord agrees that the parking permit rates at the Building shall remain comparable to the rates being charged at comparable Class A buildings in the Warner Center area.

Beginning on January 1, 2018 and continuing throughout the remainder of the New Expansion Premises Term, with respect to the Existing Premises, Tenant shall have the right but not the obligation to purchase up to the same number and type of permits currently permitted to be purchased for the Existing Premises (which is 150 unreserved permits and 7 reserved permits) provided that except for the discount specified below in Section 10.3, and notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Lease, effective January 1, 2018, Tenant’s parking permits shall allow Tenant to park in the Building parking facility at the posted monthly parking rates and charges then in effect, including any and all applicable taxes, provided that such rates may be changed from time to time, in Landlord’s sole discretion, subject to the last sentence of Section 10.1 above.

10.3 Discounts. With respect to the parking permits and validations purchased for the Expansion Premises, commencing on the Initial Expansion Premises Commencement Date and continuing throughout the New Expansion Premises Term Tenant shall receive a fifty percent (50%) discount on all permits and validations purchased pursuant to the Lease (so long as such visitor validations are purchased by Tenant on a bulk basis in increments of $500.00). With respect to the parking permits and validations purchased for the Existing Premises, commencing on January 1, 2018 and continuing throughout the New Expansion Premises Term Tenant shall receive a fifty percent (50%) discount on all permits and validations purchased pursuant to the Lease (so long as such visitor validations are purchased by Tenant on a bulk basis in increments of $500.00), provided that all other parking discounts for the Existing Premises (whether for permits or validations) shall expire at 11:59 p.m. local time on December 31, 2017.

Except as modified herein, Tenant’s parking rights and obligations shall be as set forth in Article 21 of the Lease, and Tenant’s parking rights with respect to the Existing Premises shall not be reduced in any manner (subject to the change in discount rates set forth herein).

Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that the Superior Rights (in their form and content existing as of the date of this Third Amendment) are the sole and exclusive rights that are superior to Tenant’s right of first offer. Additionally, at such time as Landlord delivers a notice to Tenant regarding the potential lease of any of the Expansion Premises under Section 24.1, Landlord shall be deemed to have represented and warranted to Tenant that the rights of all holders of Superior Rights are no longer in effect with respect to the Expansion Premises in question and the particular transaction in question.

(b) The “Expansion Premises” as defined in Section 24.1 shall mean, solely for purposes of the right of first offer and not with respect to the right of first refusal, any demised office space in the Building that is equal to or greater than 5,000 rentable square feet.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, the Right of First Offer shall remain effective as of the date this Third Amendment is mutually executed and shall continue in effect through the expiration of the New Expansion Premises Term (as may be extended), and the Right of First Offer shall be a continuing right and shall not expire or terminate during the New Expansion Premises Term (as may be extended).

Notwithstanding anything in the Lease or this Third Amendment, (i) the Right of First Offer may be exercised by Tenant or any Affiliate assignee, or any other permitted assignee, (ii) Tenant’s exercise of its Right of First Offer and/or Right of First Refusal shall not affect Tenant’s right to exercise its Termination Option in the Lease; and (iii) the terms of Section 24.5 of the Original Lease shall remain in full force and effect (subject to Landlord’s obligations under this Third Amendment).

11.3 Right of First Refusal. The “Right of First Refusal” shall mean the right of first refusal set forth in Section 24.4 of the Original Lease, as amended by Section 9.2 of the First Amendment. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Lease, the Right of First Refusal shall apply solely to any demised space on the ninth (9th) floor of the Building that is vacant and available to lease to third parties (or Landlord has knowledge that such space will be available in the reasonably near future). Landlord and Tenant agree that, until November 30, 2014, the right of first refusal shall be subject and subordinate only to a right of expansion and a right of first refusal for the remaining portion of the 9th floor (both of which rights expire on November 30, 2014) granted to Aris. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Landlord enters into an extension of the term of the Aris lease commencing on December 1, 2014 (which may be for any time period and may or may not include a lease of all or a portion of the remaining unoccupied 9th floor of the Building, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion (the “Aris Extension”); provided, however, if Aris or any other tenant leases less than the entire 9th floor, then if Tenant leases any space on the 9th floor pursuant to its right of first offer or right of first refusal under the Lease, Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, and not as part of Operating Expenses, construct a Building standard multi-tenant corridor on the 9th floor in accordance with Landlord’s plans and specifications in accordance with a construction schedule consistent with the delivery of the applicable ninth (9th) floor space to Tenant. Landlord agrees not to grant Aris any extension of its expansion right or its right of first refusal and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, on and after November 30, 2014, Tenant’s right of first refusal shall not be subject or subordinate to the rights of Aris or any other tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, the Right of First Refusal Period shall mean the time period commencing on the date this Third Amendment is mutually executed and ending upon the expiration of the New Expansion Premises Term (as may be extended), and the Right of First Refusal shall be a continuing right and shall not expire or terminate during the New Expansion Premises Term (as may be extended). Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that the rights of Aris (as set forth above) are the sole and exclusive rights that are superior to Tenant’s right of first refusal, and that the rights of Aris unconditionally expire and terminate on November 30, 2014. Additionally, without limiting the foregoing, at such time as Landlord delivers a notice to Tenant regarding the potential lease of any of the Expansion Premises under Section 24.4 of the Original Lease, Landlord shall be deemed to have represented and warranted to Tenant that the rights of Aris are no longer in effect with respect to the Expansion Premises in question and particular transaction in question.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, the Right of First Refusal may be exercised by Tenant or any Affiliate assignee or any other permitted assignee.

Expiration of Option to Terminate Early. Provided that Tenant has not already delivered the Termination Notice specified hereinabove, then, effective on the first calendar day of the fifty-second (52nd) calendar month after the Initial Expansion Premises Commencement Date, the provisions of this Article 25 shall be deemed null, void and of no further force or effect.” Notwithstanding anything in the Lease or this Third Amendment, the Termination Option may be exercised by Tenant or any Affiliate assignee or any other permitted assignee.

Landlord’s representations, warranties and covenants under Section 20.25 of the Original Lease are hereby ratified, and re-made as of the date hereof with respect to both the Existing Premises (excluding any Tenant Change in the Existing Premises with respect to which Landlord’s approval was not given but was required under the Lease) and the Expansion Premises (except for Tenant’s obligation to cause the restrooms in the Premises to comply with Code to the extent set forth in Section 5.1 of Exhibit B).

11.7 Directory Signage: Lobby Identity Signage: Monument Signage Modification: Building-Top Signage Modification. Tenant may, in its sole discretion, install building standard signage per a building standard location at the entrances of the Expansion Premises at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, payable by Landlord to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of written invoice.

In addition to all other lobby directory signage, Tenant shall have the right to install lobby identity signage at Tenant’s sole cost on a prominent wall location depicted on Exhibit D attached hereto, stating Tenant’s name and/or logo of reasonable size (approximately 8’ wide x 21” tall), which shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (provided Landlord’s approval shall not be required for any name or logo or signage consistent with that currently in the 12th floor reception room in the Existing Premises), and shall be deemed granted if Landlord does not provide a detailed reasonable disapproval within five (5) business days after receipt of written request. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, the last paragraph of Section 20.22.1(a) is hereby deleted, it being understood that Tenant’s rights to its monument signage shall not expire or terminate unless Tenant removes its existing installed signage from the monument and does not replace such signage by the date that is twenty-four (24) months after such removal (which outside date shall be extended for any Force Majeure Event).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, all of Tenant’s signage rights may be exercised by Tenant or any Affiliate assignee or any Acceptable Assignee (defined below), subject to the remaining terms of the Lease, including, without limitation, the following paragraph. Additionally, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, Tenant’s exercise of any of its signage rights (including, without limitation, the installation of the Building-Top Signage) shall not affect Tenant’s right to exercise Termination Option in the Lease.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, Landlord hereby agrees that the Building-Top Signage shall be exclusive to Tenant and Landlord shall not allow any other party to have signage on the roof of the Building, or grant any building top sign right to any other party unless Tenant’s right to Building-Top Signage has terminated in accordance with the terms of the Lease. Tenant may place the Building-Top Signage on up to two (2) sides of the Building (i.e., up to 2 building-top signs), and Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its approval for any request by Tenant to use a side(s) of the Building for the Building-Top Signage. provided that Landlord hereby approves installing the Building-Top Signage on the north and west sides of the Building (and subject to Landlord’s approval criteria for the Building-Top Signage as set forth in Section 20.22.1(b) of the Original Lease as amended by this Third Amendment). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, (a) all signage may contain name and logo (and, without limitation, may contain the name “Blackline” or “Blackline Systems”), and, other than the Building-Top Signage, to the extent set forth in the following clause (b), may be utilized by Tenant, any Affiliate assignee or sublessee, or any other permitted assignee or sublessee; and (b) the Building-Top Signage may only be used by Tenant, an Affiliate assignee, an Acceptable Assignee (as defined below) or an Acceptable Sublessee (as defined below). An “Acceptable Assignee” shall mean the following conditions shall be satisfied: (X) Landlord has consented to the assignment of the Lease to the assignee; (Y) the assignee’s proposed exterior signage satisfies all of Landlord’s reasonable signage criteria (as may be reasonably modified from time to time) and the terms and conditions as set forth in this paragraph to which the signage rights are subject, and (Z) in Landlord’s reasonable determination, the proposed exterior signage will identify a business that is consistent with the first class quality, character, and reputation of businesses at the Project with comparable exterior signage (and considering the substantial prominence of the Building-Top Signage), is consistent with the level of quality, character, and reputation of comparable prominent building top signage displayed at comparable first-class office projects in the Warner Center area, and would not denigrate the character, value or reputation of the Project, Landlord or tenants at the Project (which objectionable signage would include, but would not be limited to, discount merchandisers or companies engaged in businesses that are known to the public to appeal to prurient interests). An “Acceptable Sublessee” shall mean the following conditions shall be satisfied: (x) the applicable requirements in clauses (X), (Y) and (Z) in the definition of Acceptable Assignee shall be satisfied with respect to the subtenant’s signage; (y) the sublessee is an Affiliate of Tenant, or otherwise a permitted sublessee (provided such Affiliate sublessee or permitted sublessee, as applicable, leases and/or subleases in the Building a combined total of not less than 44,000 rentable square feet). Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord may consent to the assignment of the Lease to a proposed assignee but withhold Landlord’s consent to allowing the same proposed assignee to display any Building-Top Signage at the Project and that such actions by Landlord, if in accordance with the conditions set forth herein, would be reasonable, and that Landlord may consent to a sublease to a proposed sublessee but withhold Landlord’s consent to allowing the same proposed sublessee to display any Building-Top Signage at the Project and that such actions by Landlord, if in accordance with the conditions set forth herein, would be reasonable.

The signage referenced herein shall be in addition, and without limitation, to the signage provided under the Lease. Furthermore, Tenant shall be entitled to install its panel as the top panel on Tenant’s existing monument sign at Tenant’s sole cost.

Tenant acknowledges that if Tenant has not materially commenced the installation of the Building-Top Signage prior to the date that is the last calendar day of the twenty-fourth (24th) month after the later to occur of the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises Commencement Date or the Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises Commencement Date (provided that in the event Tenant has materially commenced the work to have the Building-Top Sign installed and is delayed only because of a delay caused by Landlord or any of the Landlord Parties, or a delay in receiving a required approval by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the subject signage, then, upon notice of the same to Landlord, such deadline shall be extended day for day until such approval is granted (including, without limitation, any time period that the governmental authority has granted Tenant to modify its application or design) and the applicable delay ends), provided that Landlord delivers written notice to Tenant during the preceding calendar month that Tenant’s right to install the subject signage shall expire as of such date, then Tenant’s right to install the subject signage shall expire as of the date that is thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of such written notice from Landlord after the later to occur of the twenty-fourth (24th) month after the later to occur of the Tenth Floor Expansion Premises Commencement Date or the Eleventh Floor Expansion Premises Commencement Date, and Tenant’s right to install said Building-Top Sign shall be null and void thereafter, if Tenant has not materially commenced the installation of the Building-Top Signage, provided that in the event Tenant has materially commenced the work to have the Building-Top Sign installed and is delayed only because of a delay caused by Landlord or any of the Landlord Parties, or a delay in receiving a required approval by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the subject signage, then, upon notice of the same to Landlord, such deadline shall be extended day for day until such approval is granted (including, without limitation, any time period that the governmental authority has granted Tenant to modify its application or design) and the applicable delay ends. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, so long as Tenant is not in material default under the Lease after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods, and leases a combined total of at least than 44,000 rentable square feet in the Building, except as may be expressly set forth to the contrary in this paragraph, Tenant shall not lose its Building-Top Sign rights.

For the avoidance of doubt, no rent or other charge shall be due or payable to Landlord by Tenant for the installation of Tenant’s signage or the use of the locations where such signage is installed (provided that nothing herein shall limit Tenant’s obligations to pay all of the costs of signage as provided in Section 20.22.1 of the Original Lease or Tenant’s obligations to pay all costs of removal and restoration of any signage installed by Tenant).

11.8.2. Elevator Card Access System. As more particularly described in Section 9.7.2 of the First Amendment, for so long as Tenant or any Affiliate leases any full floors in the Building Landlord shall promptly, upon notice from Tenant and at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, (a) install Elevator Card Access System hardware in the two (2) cabs that do not currently have such hardware (and such system shall be comparable to that installed in the other two (2) cabs) and Landlord shall program and activate all four (4) Elevator Card Access Systems at Landlord’s sole cost for every such full floor leased by Tenant. The terms specified in Sections 9.7.2 and 9.7.3 of the First Amendment shall remain in full force and effect during the New Expansion Premises Term. The elevators shall be equipped with locking systems for each of 10th, 11th and 12th floors (and any other full floor leased by Tenant, if applicable), for Tenant’s exclusive use.

11.9 Expansion Premises Excess HVAC; Expansion Premises Supplemental HVAC.

to program their access to Excess HVAC. There shall be a one (1)-hour minimum charge for Excess HVAC when such Excess HVAC is ordered. Tenant’s request shall be deemed conclusive evidence of its willingness to pay the cost for excess HVAC pursuant to this Section 11.9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease or this Third Amendment, the cost for Excess HVAC for the Expansion Premises shall not exceed Landlord’s reasonable cost thereof, which shall only include the actual cost of utilities charged by the 3rd-party utility provider, plus a reasonable allowance for accelerated depreciation and additional maintenance for the Building HVAC systems as a result of the Excess HVAC used by Tenant in the Expansion Premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease or this Third Amendment, in no event shall charges for Excess HVAC include an administrative, supervision or other like fee. As of the date of this Lease, Landlord’s cost for the Expansion Premises Excess HVAC (and the after-hours charge to Tenant for Excess HVAC) is $43.12per hour, for the tenth (10th) and eleventh (11th) floors, and $27.46 per hour for the twelfth (12t”) floor, subject to changes in Landlord’s actual costs for providing Excess HVAC (which shall be substantiated in writing to Tenant).

If constructed, the staircase shall be subject to the terms of Section 7.1(c) of the Original Lease.

11.11 Roof Rights. Tenant’s rights pursuant to Article 26 of the Original Lease shall continue during the New Expansion Premises Term, provided that during such New Expansion Premises Term Tenant shall be permitted to install a total of up to three (3) Satellite Dishes and related Connecting Equipment on the roof of the Building without the payment of rent or other charge to Landlord. Section 26.10 of the original Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety. In addition, subject to Landlord’s prior approval of the plans and specifications, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (and shall be deemed granted unless Landlord provides a detailed written reasonable disapproval thereof to Tenant within 5 business days after Landlord’s receipt of written request). Tenant shall be permitted to install supplemental HVAC units on the rooftop without the payment of rent (but Tenant shall bear all other costs of such supplemental HVAC units), subject to Landlord’s approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) as to the plans and specifications therefor; failure of Landlord to reasonably disapprove such plans and specifications within five (5) business days after receipt thereof shall be deemed Landlord’s approval of such plans and specifications. It shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its approval to such supplemental HVAC units on the rooftop if such installation and/or operation of the supplemental HVAC will adversely affect Building systems, the structure of the Building or the safety of the Building and/or its occupants.

 

12. Base Year; Modification to Operating Expense Cap. The Base Year for the Expansion Premises shall be calendar year 2015 (“Expansion Premises Base Year”). Effective on January 1, 2018, the Base Year for the Existing Premises shall be calendar year 2018 (“Existing Premises Base Year”).

Such renovations will be consistent with the Class A character of the Building. The work shall be performed by Landlord’s contractors at Landlord’s sole cost and expense (and not as part of Operating Expenses), in accordance with Landlord’s plans and specifications.

Re:                                                   (the “Real Property”)

The undersigned (referred to herein as “Contractor”) has been engaged by                                      (“Tenant”) to perform work (the “Work”) in or on the above referenced Real Property, which is owned by Douglas Emmett             , LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Owner”), and managed by Owner’s duly authorized agent, Douglas Emmett Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Manager”). Contractor acknowledges and agrees that Contractor has reviewed and shall comply with the “Construction Policies” that are a part of the [Tenant Work Letter] attached as Exhibit             to the Lease. Contractor also agrees that Contractor shall, and shall cause its subcontractors, agents and employees to (a) perform the Work and enter and exit the Real Property, elevators, and parking facilities in a manner that will not disturb any other tenants, subtenants or other occupants of the Real Property or any of their employees, officers or invitees; (b) engage in any demolition, anchoring of walls or supports, drilling, or conduct any other aspect of planning or construction or operate any equipment in Tenant’s premises or any other part of the Real Property that may cause excessive noise, dust, vibrations or odors only during such hours as approved in writing in advance by Owner or Manager and only in the manner prescribed in writing by Owner or Manager; (c) comply with the Construction Policies or any written guidelines or instructions delivered to Contractor from Owner or Manager regarding performance of the Work; and (d) comply with applicable laws. Contractor understands and agrees that, prior to Contractor commencing the Work, Owner requires Contractor to provide the Landlord Parties (as hereinafter defined) with certain protections and that such protections are a material inducement to Owner’s consent to allowing Contractor to perform the Work at the Real Property. Accordingly, Contractor hereby agrees to and/or shall comply with the following:

 

1.

Contractor shall indemnify and hold harmless Owner and Manager and their respective affiliates, members, interest holders, managing members, officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, predecessors, successors and assigns (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Landlord Parties” and individually a “Landlord Party”) from and against all liabilities, claims, damages, losses, liens, causes of actions, judgments, costs and expenses, of whatever kind or nature, including without limitation, bodily injury or death (whether or not those injured or deceased are performing work under this Agreement or are affiliated with the parties hereto), property damage, costs of litigation (including, without limitation, actual attorneys’ fees and costs) (collectively, “Claims”) arising out of or resulting from (1) the failure of Contractor or any of its subcontractors, employees or agents to comply with the requirements set forth in clauses (a), (b), (c) or (d) above; or any other obligation of Contractor under this Agreement, (2) the negligent acts or omissions of Contractor, its owners, agents, servants, employees, or subcontractors, or (3) the Work performed by

  Contractor. This indemnification obligation shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or types of damages, compensation, or benefits payable by or for Contractor or its subcontractors under workers compensation or disability laws. Contractor’s duty to indemnify shall include and extend to (i) situations in which Contractor has been negligent in the screening, hiring and training of its employees, contractors and subcontractors, said negligence of which causes liability in which any Landlord Party is alleged to be responsible for any Claims arising out of such negligent screening, hiring or training; and (ii) Claims for labor performed, equipment, tools, supplies or materials used or furnished in the performance of Contractor’s services, including any costs and expenses incurred in the defense of such Claims and any damages to any Landlord Party resulting from such Claims.

 

2. Contractor agrees after written demand to immediately cause the effect of any suit or lien to be removed from the Real Property and in the event Contractor shall fail to do so, Owner is authorized to use whatever means in its discretion it may deem appropriate to cause said lien or suit to be removed or dismissed and the costs thereof, together with attorneys’ fees shall be immediately due and payable by Contractor to Owner. In the event a suit is brought against any Landlord Party or if any Landlord Party is named as a defendant in any suit against Contractor or Tenant, Contractor shall, at the option of Owner in Owner’s sole discretion, defend the Landlord Parties with counsel selected by Contractor and acceptable to Owner, in Owner’s reasonable discretion. Contractor shall pay any and all costs and expenses in connection therewith as well as all additional costs and expenses incurred in such suit, including without limitation, professional fees such as expert fees, and/or appraisers’ and accountants’ fees, and will pay and satisfy any such claim, lien, or judgment as may be established by the decision of the court in such suit. Contractor may litigate any such lien or suit provided Contractor causes the effect thereof to be removed from the Real Property promptly in advance.

 

3. Contractor shall promptly pay all indebtedness incurred in Contractor’s performance of the Work. Should any lien or charge attach to the Real Property by reason of Contractor’s failure to pay such indebtedness, Contractor shall promptly procure the release of any such lien or charge and shall indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably approved by Owner) and hold the Landlord Parties harmless from all loss, cost damage or expense incidental thereto.

 

4. If at any time there should be evidence of any lien or claim for which Owner or Manager is or might become liable, or for which the Real Property is, or might become subject to and which is chargeable to Contractor or any of its subcontractors, after allowing Contractor thirty (30) days to remove such lien, Owner or Manager shall have the right to retain out of any amounts due Contractor (as in for example, disbursements of any tenant improvement allowance), which shall be above and beyond any retention amounts, an amount sufficient to clear the lien or claim and completely indemnify the Landlord Parties against such lien or claim along with all associated costs, which shall in no way serve as an election of remedies by Owner or Manager. Contractor may obtain possession of the retained amount, provided that Contractor (a) posts a bond or other security in an amount sufficient to fully indemnify the Landlord Parties against the lien or claim, and (b) obtains Owner or Manager’s approval as to the adequacy and quality of the bond or security, which Owner or Manager shall not unreasonable withhold. The cost of any such bond shall be borne by Contractor.

 

5. Contractor shall not take and is not authorized to take any action in the name of or otherwise on behalf of Owner or Manager which would violate any applicable law. If Contractor knowingly performs any Work or engages in any other activities contrary to applicable law, Contractor shall bear any and all additional costs resulting therefrom, including, but not limited to, the costs of correcting the Work or repairing the Real Property to comply with such law and the cost of fully indemnifying the Landlord Parties from all violations.

 

6. Contractor shall immediately cause all Landlord Parties to be released from any liability or penalty which may be imposed on Contractor, its employees, agents or subcontractors by reason of any alleged violation or violations of applicable law by Contractor in performance of the Work.

7. Contractor waives any right to consequential, special or indirect damages or loss of anticipated profits, except for acts of gross negligence or intentional misconduct by Owner or Manager. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein to the contrary, Contractor shall look solely to Owner’s interest in the Real Property and any proceeds from a sale of the Real Property that actually remain undistributed, for satisfaction of any liabilities or obligations of Owner under this Agreement. No Landlord Party shall be personally liable for any such liabilities or obligations whatsoever.

 

8. If litigation is instituted between Owner and Contractor, the cause for which arises out of or in relation to this Agreement, the prevailing party in such litigation shall be entitled to receive its costs (not limited to court costs), expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees from the non-prevailing party as the same may be awarded by the court.

It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions shall survive the termination or expiration of any agreement between Contractor and Tenant.
