13.2
Remedies. If Lessee fails to perform any of its affirmative duties or obligations, within 10 days after written notice (or
in case of an emergency without notice), Lessor may, at its option, perform such duty or obligation on Lessee’s behalf, including
but not limited to the obtaining of reasonably required bonds, insurance policies, or governmental licenses, permits or approvals. Lessee
shall pay to Lessor an amount equal to 115% of the costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Lessor in such performance upon
within 15 days following receipt of an invoice therefor. In the event of a Breach, Lessor may, with or without further notice or demand,
and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such Breach:
(a)
Terminate Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate
and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession to Lessor. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee: (i) the unpaid
Rent which had been earned at the time of termination; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which
would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could have
been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after
the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount
necessary to compensate Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by the Lessee’s failure to perform its obligations under
this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including but not limited to the ___________
cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable
attorneys’ fees, and that portion of any leasing commission paid by Lessor in connection with this Lease applicable to the unexpired
term of this Lease. The worth at the time of award of the amount referred to in provision (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence
shall e computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of the District within which the Premises
are located at the time of award plus one percent. Efforts by Lessor to mitigate damages caused by Lessee’s Breach of this
Lease shall not waive Lessor’s right to recover damages under Paragraph 12. If termination of this Lease is obtained through
the provisional remedy of unlawful detainer, Lessor shall have the right to recover in such proceeding any unpaid Rent and damages as
are recoverable therein, or Lessor may reserve the right to recover all of any part thereof in a separate suit. If a notice and grace
period required under Paragraph 13.1 was not previously given, a notice to pay rent or quit, or to perform or quit given to Lessee under
the unlawful detainer statute shall also constitute the notice required by Paragraph 13.1. In such case, the applicable grace period required
by Paragraph 13.1 and the unlawful detainer statute shall run concurrently, and the failure of Lessee to cure the Default within the greater
of the two such grace periods shall constitute both an unlawful detainer and a Breach of this Lease entitling Lessor to the remedies provided
for in this Lease and/or by said statute.
(b) Continue the Lease and Lessee’s right to possession and recover the Rent as it becomes due, in which event Lessee may sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet, and/or the appointment of a receiver to protect the Lessor’s interests, shall not constitute a termination of the Lessee’s right to possession.
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available under the laws or judicial decision of the state wherein the Premises are located. The expiration or termination of this Lease and/or the termination of Lessee’s right to possession shall not relieve Lessee from liability under any indemnity provisions of this Lease as to matters occurring or accruing during the term hereof or by reason of Lessee’s occupancy of the Premises.

13.3
Inducement Recapture. Any agreement for free or abated rent or other charges or for the giving or paying by
Lessor to or for Lessee of any cash or other bonus, inducement or consideration for Lessee’s entering into this Lease, all of which
concessions are hereinafter referred to as “Inducement Provisions,” shall be deemed conditioned upon Lessee’s full and
faithful performance of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease. Upon Breach of this Lease by Lessee, any such Inducement
Provision shall automatically be deemed deleted from this Lease and of no further force or effect and any rent, other charge, bonus, inducement
or consideration theretofore abates, given or paid by Lessor under such an Inducement Provision shall be immediately due and payable by
Lessee to Lessor, notwithstanding any subsequent cure of said Breach by Lessee. The acceptance by Lessor of rent of the cure of the Breach
which initiated the operation of this paragraph shall not be deemed a waiver by Lessor of the provisions of this paragraph unless specifically
so stated in writing by Lessor at the time of such acceptance.
13.4
Late Charges. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee of Rent will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated
by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing
and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon Lessor by and Lender. Accordingly, if any Rent shall not be received
by Lessor within 5 days after such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, Lessee shall immediately pay
to Lessor a one-time late charge equal to 10% of each such overdue amount or $100, whichever is greater. The Parties
hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of such late payment.
Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee’s Default or Breach with respect to such
overdue amount, nor prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In the event that a late charge is
payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for 3 consecutive installments of Base Rent, then notwithstanding any provision of this Lease
to the contrary, Base Rent shall, at Lessor’ option, become due and payable quarterly in advance.
13.5 Interest. Any monetary payment due Lessor hereunder, other than late charges, not received by Lessor within 5 days of when due as to scheduled payments (such as Base Rent) or within 30 days following the date on which it was due for non-scheduled payment, shall bear interest from the date when due, as to scheduled payments, or the 31st day after it was due s to non-scheduled payments. The interest (“Interest”) charged shall be computed at the rate of 10% per annum but shall not exceed the maximum rate allowed by law. Interest is payable in addition to the potential late charge provided for in Paragraph 13.4.
13.6 Breach by Lessor.
(a) Notice of Breach. Lessor shall not be deemed in breach of this Lease unless Lessor fails within a reasonable time to perform an obligation required to be performed by Lessor. For purposes of this Paragraph, ,a reasonable time shall I no event be less than 30 days after receipt by Lessor, and any Lender whose name and address shall have been furnished Lessee in writing for such purpose, of written notice specifying wherein such obligation of Lessor has not been performed; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor’s obligation is such that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its performance, then Lessor shall not be in breach if performance if commenced within such 30 days period and thereafter diligently pursued to completion.
(b) Performance by Lessee on Behalf of Lessor. In the event that neither Lessor nor Lender cures said breach within 30 days after receipt of said notice, or if having commenced said cure they do not diligently pursue it to completion, then Lessee may elect to cure said breach at Lessee’s expense and offset from Rent the actual and reasonable cost to perform such cure, provided, however, that such offset shall not exceed an amount equal to the greater of one month’s Base Rent or the Security Deposit, reserving Lessee’s right to see reimbursement form Lessor for any such expense in excess of such offset. Lessee shall document the cost of said cure and supply said documentation to Lessor.

the Premises caused by such Condemnation. Condemnation awards and/or payment shall be the property of Lessor, whether such award shall

As used in this paragraph, the “CPI” means the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers, Los Angeles/Riverside/Orange County, all items (1982-84 = 100), published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (the “Bureau”), or if such index is no longer published, the U.S. Department of Labor’s most comprehensive official index then in use that most nearly corresponds to the index named above. If it is calculated from a base different from the base period 1982-84 = 100, figures used for calculating the adjustment shall first be converted to the base period used under a formula supplied by the Bureau. If the described index shall no longer be published, another index generally recognized as authoritative shall be substituted by Lessor.
(b) On January 1, 2020 (the “Base Rent Adjustment Date”), the annual Base Rent with respect to the Premises shall be adjusted to the fair market rent for the Premises as determined in accordance with paragraphs (i) through (ix) below.
(i) No earlier than July 1, 2019, nor later than September 1, 2019, Lessor shall present to Lessee Lessor’s proposed fair market rent for the Premises for the calendar year 2020. Lessee shall have ten (10) days to respond to Lessor that Lessee approves or disapproves Lessor’s proposed rent. If Lessee fails to respond within such ten (10) day period, then Lessee shall be deemed to have approved Lessor’s proposed rent.
(ii) If Lessee disapproves Lessor’s proposed rent, then the parties shall reasonably communicate, meet and confer for no less than seven (7) days to attempt to reach agreement on the fair market value rent.
2
(iii) If the parties are unable to so agree, then Lessor and Lessee shall each appoint, on or before October 1, 2019, one arbitrator who shall by profession be a current real estate broker or appraiser of comparable commercial properties within a ten (10) mile radius of the Project, and who has been active in such field over the last ten (10) years.
(iv) The two (2) arbitrators so appointed shall within ten (10) business days of the date of the appointment of the last appointed arbitrator agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator who shall be qualified under the same criteria set forth hereinabove for qualification of the initial two arbitrators.
(v) The three arbitrators shall within fifteen (15) days of the appointment of the third arbitrator reach a decision as to the fair market rent for the Premises.
(vi) The decision of the majority of the three (3) arbitrators shall be binding upon Lessor and Lessee.
(vii) If either Lessor or Lessee fails to appoint an arbitrator within ten (10) days after October 1, 2019, the arbitrator appointed by one of them shall reach a decision, notify Lessor and Lessee thereof, and such arbitrator’s decision shall be binding upon Lessor and Lessee.
(viii) If the two (2) arbitrators fail to agree upon and timely appoint a third (3rd) arbitrator, or both parties fail to timely appoint an arbitrator, then the appointment of the third arbitrator or any arbitrator shall be dismissed and the matter to be decided shall be forthwith submitted to arbitration under the provisions of the American Arbitration Association, in Los Angeles California (with arbitrators based in Los Angeles, California who are experienced with the Los Angeles, California real estate market), but subject to the instruction set forth in this item (b).
(ix) If the final fair market value rent established by the arbitrators is less than the rent proposed by Lessor pursuant to Paragraph 55(b)(i) above, then each of Lessor and Lessee shall pay the cost of the arbitrator selected by itself, and the cost of the third arbitrator and the cost of the arbitration shall be paid by Lessor and Lessee equally. If the final fair market value rent established by the arbitrators is greater than the rent proposed by Lessor pursuant to Paragraph 55(b)(i) above, then Lessee shall pay the cost of all three arbitrators and the cost of the arbitration.
(c) Commencing on January 1, 2021, and on each anniversary thereafter (i.e., each such date again being an Adjustment Date), Base Rent shall again be increased (but not decreased) by the CPI Amount (as defined below), but in no event shall Base Rent be increased by more than three percent (3%) each year.
56. Assignment. The following shall be inserted as replacement Paragraph 12.l(c) of the Form Lease:
‘‘(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, an assignment or subletting of all or a portion of the Premises to an “Affiliate” (as defined below) of Lessee shall be deemed permitted hereunder, provided that (i) Lessee notifies Lessor of any such assignment or sublease at least thirty (30) days prior to its effective date and promptly supplies Lessor with any documents or information requested by Lessor regarding such assignment or sublease or such Affiliate, (ii) the net worth of Lessee’s Affiliate immediately after the date of Transfer shall be at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00), (iii) such assignment or sublease is not a subterfuge by Lessee to avoid its obligations under this Lease, (iv) the assignee or sublessee assumes, in full, the obligations of Lessee under this Lease, and (v) Lessee remains fully liable under this Lease. The term “Affiliate” of Lessee shall mean an entity which is: (a) controlled by, controls, or is under common control with Lessee; (b) any entity with which Lessee has merged or consolidated; (c) any entity which directly or indirectly acquires all or substantially all of the capital stock of :the Lessee; or (d) any entity which acquires all or substantially all of the assets of Lessee, and which continues to operate substantially the same business at the Premises as had been maintained by Lessee. The term “control,” or “controlled” as used in this paragraph shall mean the ownership, directly or indirectly, of at least fifty percent (50%) of the voting securities of, or possession of the right to vote, in the ordinary direction of its affairs, of at least fifty percent (50%) of the voting interest in, an entity.”
3
57. Portion of the Project Not Leased to Lessee; Address for Conducting Business.
(a) The parties hereto understand and acknowledge that the Premises is a substantial part of, but does not comprise the entirety of, the Project, as more fully shown on the site plan attached to the Lease. The portion of the Project retained by Lessor is referred to herein as the “Retained Premises.” Lessee is and shall remain obligated to pay all operating costs, Real Property Taxes, insurance costs, and other amounts for which Lessee is responsible under the Lease (including, without limitation, costs for capital improvements), for the Premises. To the extent that any such costs or expenses are charged to the entire Project or any portion thereof which includes more than just the Premises (e.g., un-segregated Real Property Taxes and/or commonly metered utilities), then Lessee shall be responsible for its pro rata share of such cost and/or expense, based on the relative square footage of the Premises to the total Project, or relative square footage of the applicable portion of the Premises to the greater area (if less than all of the Project) to which such cost or expense applies.
(b) The Retained Premises includes that portion of the Project known by the street address “1931 N. Broadway.” The parties hereto understand that until such time as Lessor leases the Retained Property to a third party, Lessee may desire to utilize that street address of “1931 N. Broadway” as the identifying/mailing address for the Premises. Lessor approves Lessee’s use of such identifying/mailing address until such time as Lessor leases the Retained Premises to a third party. Provided that Lessor provides to Lessee at least ninety (90) days prior written notice, Lessee agrees that it will cease utilizing “1931 N. Broadway” as the identifying/mailing address for the Premises, and, instead, will utilize another of the available postal addresses of the Premises as its identifying/mailing address.
58. Notwithstanding the terms of Paragraph 10.2 of the form Lease, Lessor and Lessee agree that Lessee shall have the right to contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any Real Estate Taxes by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in good faith but only after payment of such Real Estate Taxes unless such payment would operate as a bar to such contest in which event, Lessee may postpone or defer payment of such Real Estate Taxes during the pendency of such proceedings if:
(a) Neither the Premise nor any part hereof would by reason of such postponement or deferment be in danger of being forfeited or lost; and
(b) Upon the termination of any such proceedings, Lessee shall pay, or may direct Lessor to pay out of any funds held by Lessor for such Real Estate Taxes, the amount of such Real Estate Taxes or part thereof as finally determined in such proceedings, the payment of which may have been deferred during the prosecution of such proceedings, together with any costs, fees, interest, penalties or other liabilities in connection therewith.
59. Lessee agrees that, upon Lessor’s written request, Lessee shall provide to Lessor copies of Lessee’s most recent audited financial statements. Lessor agrees that all such financial statements provided to Lessor shall be maintained by Lessor in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed or disseminated to third parties (other than Lessor’s attorneys, accountants, lenders and financial institutions and other consultants which Lessor may elect to review and advise on same) without Lessee’s prior written consent. Any such third parties to whom Lessor provides copies of such statements shall be required to maintain them in strict confidence.
4
60. In the event that Lessee desires to sublease all or any portion of the Premises, and Lessor consents to such sublease (a “Transfer”) pursuant to the express terms of this Lease, then, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease to the contrary, Lessee shall pay to Lessor one hundred percent (100%) of any “Transfer Premium” (defined below), received by Tenant from the sublessee (“Transferee”). As used herein, “Transfer Premium” shall mean all rent or other consideration payable by a Transferee in connection with a Transfer in excess of the basic rental and operating expenses payable by Lessee under this Lease during the term of the Transfer after deducting all costs and expenses paid by Lessee in connection with said Transfer, including, without limitation, leasing commissions and attorneys’ fees related to such Transfer. If such Transfer is for less than all of the Premises, the Transfer Premium shall be calculated on a rentable square foot basis. The calculation of “Transfer Premium” shall also include, but not be limited to, key money, bonus money or other cash consideration paid by a Transferee to Lessee in connection with such Transfer, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services rendered by Lessee to the Transferee and any payment in excess of fair market value for assets, fixtures, inventory, equipment, or furniture transferred by Lessee to the Transferee in connection with such Transfer.
