Whereas, Tesla, Panasonic and Tenant have entered into the General Terms, the Pricing Agreement, and certain other agreements with respect to the Purpose (collectively, the “Commercial Agreements”), which Commercial Agreements contemplate that Panasonic and/or its Affiliates, including without limitation Tenant, will perform the Purpose; and

Whereas, Tesla has purchased the Land, is currently constructing a manufacturing facility on the Land, and intends to provide to Tenant sufficient space and utilities at such facility for the Purpose;

Now, therefore, the Parties agree as follows:

1.Lease Rights and Obligations.

1.1Grant of Lease.

Tesla leases to Tenant, and Tenant takes from Tesla, the Premises, to have and to hold for the Lease Term, subject to any superior liens or encumbrances and subject to the terms of this Lease and reserving and excepting to Tesla the roof and provided that this Lease confers no rights either with regard to the subsurface of the Land below the ground level of the building or with regard to airspace above the roof of the Factory. Tenant’s rights under this Lease include an exclusive right to use the Premises and a non-exclusive right to use all parking and other areas and all easements and rights benefiting the Premises. Tenant and its employees and business invitees shall be entitled to the non-exclusive use of the Common Areas during the Lease Term, in common with Tesla and with other persons authorized by Tesla from time to time to use the Common Areas. Tesla shall tender possession of the Premises to Tenant in its “as-is” condition as of the Commencement Date and, as a Tesla Responsibility, cause the Premises, the portions of the Factory pertinent to the Premises (including, without limitation, the Common Areas)  and the corresponding exterior portions of the Factory (including the parking areas and the driveways, alleys, landscape and grounds surrounding such portions of the Factory) to be in compliance with all applicable Laws as of the Production Date and during the Lease Term (except to the extent of Tenant’s obligations with respect to the Premises).

 

(b)

The Parties shall discuss in good faith the general configuration of the Premises within the Factory as required for Tenant to accomplish the Purpose.  On or after the Commencement Date: (i) Tenant may access the Premises for (A) planning, measurement, construction and installation of improvements, fixtures, and customizations to the Premises including Factory Systems (collectively, the “Tenant Improvements”) which are approved in writing by Tesla from time to time and required for Tenant to accomplish the Purpose, such approval to not unreasonably be withheld, delayed or conditioned, and (B) delivery, installation, and preparation of inventory and equipment as required for Tenant to accomplish the Purpose; and (ii) (A) Tesla will provide reasonable, temporary restroom facilities for Tenant’s agents, contractors and employees; and (B) Tesla will provide without charge reasonable space for temporary parking facilities for Tenant’s contractors and/or subcontractors for planning, measurement, construction and installation of Tenant Improvements and/or Tenant’s Property to the Premises, on the Land and/or within the Factory.  Tenant may, subject to Tesla’s reasonable safety instructions and policies, also access the Premises at no cost and expense to Tenant after the Effective Date but before the Commencement Date (the “Pre-Commencement Date”), from time to time upon Tesla’s prior consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) for the purpose of planning, measurement and other necessary preparation for Tenant Improvements and/or other Tenant’s Property.  Tenant shall complete and maintain all Tenant Improvements in a professional and workmanlike manner with reasonable quality materials.

 

(c)

Tenant acknowledges that this Lease and all rights granted hereunder are subject to any and all restrictions generally applicable to the Factory and/or the Land, including the CCR Rules.

Tesla shall not be responsible for providing any Tenant Utilities to Tenant.  Tesla shall not be liable to Tenant for any interruption or failure of service of any Tenant Utilities to the Premises from any cause whatsoever, except to the extent of Tesla’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, nor shall such interruption or failure constitute a constructive eviction or [***] or affect the obligations of Tenant under this Lease or the General Terms in any other way whatsoever.  If Tesla and/or any of its other tenants at the Factory desire to use any portion of the Tenant Utilities, the Parties shall discuss in good faith the terms and conditions of the use, including but not limited to Tenant’s charges for such use.

1.4Maintenance and Repairs.

 

(a)

Tesla Responsibilities.  During the Lease Term and as a Tesla Responsibility at no cost and expense to Tenant, Tesla will maintain, repair and, as necessary, replace: (i) the structure of the Factory (including the structural elements of the roof, the roof membrane, the slab, the foundation, structural elements of the Factory (e.g. column, beam), and exterior walls of the Factory); and (ii) all portions of the Premises and/or Factory not required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease including the exterior portions of the Premises (e.g. the parking areas and the driveways, alleys, landscape and grounds surrounding the Factory), the Common Areas, Factory Systems not installed by Tenant, and Factory Systems installed by Tenant for which Tesla is responsible for maintenance, repairs and/or replacement, if any and as agreed in writing by the Parties.  The Tesla Responsibilities include, without limitation, the following aspects of the Premises: utility lines serving the Premises inside the Premises; floor coverings; lighting; wiring; electrical; plumbing; HVAC ducts and related equipment; all locks and closing devices; all trade fixtures

6.Casualty.  If all or substantially all of the Factory or the Premises are damaged, or a part of the Factory is damaged so that the operation of Tenant at the Premises is adversely affected by a fire or other casualty (a “Casualty Event”), Tesla will notify Tenant promptly in writing of the occurrence of the Casualty Event, and will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to give the notice within [***] days, which notice shall include an estimate as to the amount of time to restore the Premises (such notice is the “Casualty Notice”).  In case of the occurrence of a Casualty Event, the Parties shall discuss in good faith regarding the restoration of the Factory or the Premises, and Tesla shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to restore them as soon as practicable but in any event within [***]; provided, however, that, if Tesla reasonably determines after such good-faith discussion with Tenant that it cannot restore the Premises or such damaged portion of the Factory within a period of [***], then the Casualty Event will be deemed to be a Force Majeure Event and either Party may terminate this Lease upon written notice, provided that such Party was not grossly negligent in causing or failing to prevent the Casualty Event.  If neither Party exercises the foregoing termination right, or less than all or substantial all of the Premises are damaged by a Casualty Event, then Tesla will, as a Tesla Responsibility, use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to restore the Premises and/or such damaged portion of the Factory in a commercially reasonable period of time if and to the extent that Tesla deems it is commercially reasonable and feasible to do so.  [***] while Tesla restores the Premises and/or such damaged portion of the Factory adversely affecting Tenant’s operation (and for any additional period reasonably required for Tenant’s restoration of any improvements or equipment installed by Tenant and time reasonably required for Tenant to be fully operational at the Premises) in the proportion which the area of the Premises, if any, affected by the casualty or related restoration work bears to the total area of the Premises.  

7.Condemnation.  Tesla will promptly notify Tenant of any threatened Taking known to Tesla and will allow Tenant to participate in any negotiations with public authorities.

of the Premises, the Factory, or the Land is Taken and the partial Taking would prevent or materially interfere with Tenant’s access to or use of the Premises, then Tenant may, at its option, terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Tesla.  Such termination will be effective as of the effective date of the Taking and will be deemed to be a termination due to a Force Majeure Event by either Party under the General Terms and this Lease. If part of the Premises is Taken and Tenant does not terminate the Lease, (a) Tesla will, as a Tesla Responsibility, restore the Premises within a commercially reasonable period of time, and (b) [***].  If any Taking occurs, then Tesla will be entitled to the entire award for the Premises but Tesla shall have no right to any award for the value of Tenant’s Property, Tenant Improvements, and/or Tenant’s moving costs.  Tenant may separately pursue a claim against the condemning authority in connection with a Taking for the value of Tenant’s property, moving costs, loss of business, and other claims it may have.

8.Subordination, Estoppel Certificates and Liens.  

8.1Mortgages.  At Tesla’s written request, Tenant will subordinate this Lease and Tenant’s interest and rights under this Lease to any existing or future deed of trust, security deed, mortgage, security assignments and any other similar encumbrances (each, a “Mortgage”), provided that the holder of the Mortgage has executed, acknowledged and delivered to Tenant a commercially reasonable Subordination, Attornment and Non-Disturbance Agreement that provides that:  (a) Tenant’s possession of the Premises and other rights under the Lease will not be disturbed in any proceeding to foreclose the Mortgage or in any other action instituted in connection with such Mortgage, (b) Tenant will not be named as a defendant in any foreclosure action or proceeding which may be instituted by the holder of such Mortgage, and (c) if the holder of the Mortgage or any other person acquires title to the Premises through foreclosure or otherwise, the Lease will continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between Tenant and the new owner, and the new owner will assume and perform Tesla’s obligations under this Lease.  The holder of any Mortgage may, at any time, subordinate its Mortgage to this Lease, without Tenant’s consent, by giving written notice to Tenant.  

8.2Estoppel Certificates. Tenant shall, within [***] days of Tesla’s request, execute and deliver to Tesla estoppel certificates(s) to: (a) certify 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 [***], if any; (b) acknowledge that there are not, to Tenant’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Tesla hereunder, or stating the nature of defaults if such exist; and (c) evidence the status of this Lease.  If Tenant fails to timely respond to a request for an estoppel certificate, Tesla may deliver an additional request accompanied by a second copy of the same estoppel certificate.  If Tenant does not respond within [***] Business Days after such second request, Tenant will be deemed to have agreed to all matters set forth in good faith in the estoppel certificate, except to the extent that Tesla has actual knowledge to the contrary.

Further, Tenant shall conduct remediation, cleanup and repairs with respect to the Land and Factory if and to the extent that the non-compliance with one or more Environmental Requirements was caused by Tenant, any Tenant Personnel, or any of Tenant’s visitors, licensees, employees, directors, officers, agents, servants, contractors and/or subcontractors.

9.4Pre-Existing Issues.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the General Terms, Tenant shall not be liable for any non-compliance with any Environmental Requirements or any other environmental issue which existed in the Land, Factory and/or Premises before the Commencement Date and was not caused by Tenant.

10.Liability.  

10.1Limitations of Liability and Exclusions.  Section 12.1 (Limitations of Liability and Exclusions) of the General Terms is incorporated by reference into, and forms an integral part of, this Lease, provided that such provision shall be deemed amended and modified mutatis mutandi solely for purposes of applicability to this Lease.  The foregoing provision governs each Party’s liability pursuant to this Lease; provided, however, that the following shall also be deemed to be direct damages for purposes of this Lease:

13.Miscellaneous.

13.1Assignment and Subcontracting.  

 

(a)

Without prior written consent of the other Party, neither Party may assign this Lease and Tenant may not sublet its rights hereunder, and any attempt to do so shall be void; provided, however, that: (i) each Party may, by a written notice but without requiring the other Party’s consent or meeting any other condition, add an Affiliate which operates in the Factory as a co-party to this Lease; and (ii) Tesla may, with Tenant’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, assign any or all of its rights, benefits or remedies to an Affiliate which assumes all of Tesla’s obligations hereunder.

 

(b)

Tenant may not subcontract any of its obligations under this Lease without Tesla’s prior written consent (such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed by Tesla), and any attempt to do so shall be void.  If Tenant subcontracts any of its obligations under this Lease to a third party, Tenant will: (i) be solely responsible for payments to the subcontractor; (ii) include in its purchase order or any other contract with the subcontractor a waiver of subcontractor liens on the Premises and Factory to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law; (iii) before permitting any subcontractor to use Tesla Property and/or access the Factory, obtain Tesla’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed by Tesla; and (iv) replace any subcontractor used by Tenant in connection with this Lease as reasonably requested by Tesla within a reasonable time after receipt of notice from Tesla and following a good faith discussion.  Tesla has no obligation with respect to any subcontractor of Tenant. Any subcontracting, assignment or delegation by Tenant does not relieve Tenant of any responsibility under this Lease, and Tenant remains responsible to the same extent as if the subcontracted, assigned or delegated responsibilities were retained by Tenant.  [***] shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Tesla of any provision hereof.  Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting.  In the event of default by any assignee, subtenant or any other successor of Tenant under this Lease, in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Tesla may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such assignee, subtenant or successor.  If and to the extent that Tesla unreasonably withholds, conditions or delays its consent to any proposed subcontractor, Tesla will be deemed to have failed to perform a Tesla Responsibility and Section 2.4(b) of the General Terms will apply.
