Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On February 1, 2017, Global Medical REIT Inc. (the “ Company ”) announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire a portfolio of three properties for an aggregate purchase price of $49,500,000. The three properties, discussed further below, are OCOM Hospital, OCOM Physical Therapy and OCOM North Ambulatory Surgical Center located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

 

OCOM Hospital, OCOM Physical Therapy and OCOM North Ambulatory Surgical Center – Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

 

On January 30, 2017, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company’s operating partnership, Global Medical REIT L.P. (the “OP”), entered into a purchase contract (the “Purchase Agreement”) with CRUSE-TWO, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (“Cruse-Two”), and CRUSE-SIX, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (“Cruse-Six”) to acquire a 69,811 square-foot surgical hospital (the “Hospital”), a 20,434 square-foot physical therapy center (the “PT Center,” together with the Hospital, “OCOM South”), and a 10,086 square-foot outpatient ambulatory surgery center (“OCOM North”) located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma from Cruse-Two and Cruse-Six for an aggregate purchase price of $49,500,000.

 

Upon closing of the acquisition of OCOM South, the Company will assume the existing absolute triple-net lease agreement (the “OCOM South Lease”), pursuant to which OCOM South is leased from Cruse-Two to Oklahoma Center for Orthopedic & Multi-Specialty Surgery, LLC (“OCOM”) with a remaining initial lease term expiring September 1, 2033, subject to three consecutive five-year renewal options by the tenant. 25% of the rent is guaranteed by United Surgical Partners International, Inc. (“USPI”) and 25% of the rent is guaranteed by INTEGRIS Health, Inc. (“INTEGRIS”).

 

Upon closing of the acquisition of OCOM South, the Company will, through a subsidiary of the OP, enter into a new absolute triple-net lease agreement (the “Master Lease,”), pursuant to which the subsidiary, as master landlord, will lease OCOM South to Cruse-Two, as master tenant. The Master Lease will have a five-year term. Initial rent will be $3,138,912, subject to annual rent escalations of 1.4%. The OCOM South Lease will become a sublease under the Master Lease upon commencement of the Master Lease. USPI and INTEGRIS will continue to serve as guarantors of the OCOM South Lease in the percentages set forth above, while the Master Lease will have no lease guarantees. Upon expiration of the Master Lease, the OCOM South Lease will become a direct lease with an annual rent of $3,365,188, subject to annual rent escalations of 2.0% until lease expiration on September 1, 2033.

 

Under the Master Lease, OCOM will continue to be responsible for all lease payments due under the OCOM South Lease, which amounts will be paid directly to the Master Tenant, while Cruse-Two will be responsible for payment of the additional rent amounts payable under the Master Lease. Cruse-Two will provide a standby letter of credit (“Letter of Credit”) addressed to the Company as beneficiary in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the additional rent payable by Cruse-Two under the Master Lease, less $220,782, which will be placed into an escrow account at closing and will be disbursed three months before the end of the Master Lease.

 

Upon closing of the acquisition of OCOM North, the Company will assume the existing absolute triple-net lease agreement (the “OCOM North Lease”) pursuant to which OCOM North is leased from Cruse-Six, as landlord, to OCOM, as tenant, with a remaining initial lease term expiring on July 31, 2022, subject to two consecutive five (5)-year renewal options by the tenant. The annual rent under the OCOM North Lease for OCOM North is currently $383,161, subject to annual increases equal to the CPI (never to decrease and not to exceed 4.0% over the prior year’s rent and not to exceed an overall increase of 2.5% per year, compounded annually).

The Company’s obligation to close the acquisition is subject to certain conditions. The Company has the right to terminate, without penalty, the Purchase Agreement on or before March 10, 2017, if, in its sole discretion, it is not satisfied with the results of its ongoing due diligence investigation, at which time the Company’s earnest money deposit becomes non-refundable. The Purchase Agreement is also subject to other customary terms and conditions as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Although the Company believes completion of this acquisition is probable, there is no assurance that the Company will close this acquisition.

 

The above descriptions of the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, Lease Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby are only a summary and are not intended to be a complete description of the terms and conditions. All of the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement and the Lease Agreements are set forth in the Purchase Agreement and Lease Agreements that are filed as Exhibit 10.1, Exhibit 10.2, Exhibit 10.3 and Exhibit 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

Within two (2) business days after Buyer receives notice from Title Company (and the Closing Date shall be extended if needed so that the Closing shall not occur prior to the end of such two (2) Business Day period), together with a copy of such intervening lien or matter, Buyer shall notify Sellers in writing of any objections thereto (a “ Supplemental Title Objection ”). If Buyer fails to notify Sellers of such Supplemental Title Objection within such two (2) Business Day period, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any objection and approved all such exceptions. If the Supplemental Title Objection is material and adverse to the Property, is not caused by Buyer and Sellers do not agree to remove such matter (other than any Monetary Lien), then Buyer may within two (2) business days after the Supplemental Title Objection, terminate this Agreement in which event the Deposit shall automatically be refunded and returned forthwith to Buyer and, except as expressly set forth herein, neither party shall have any further liability or obligation to the other hereunder. If Sellers have not received written notice from Buyer that Buyer has elected to terminate this Agreement within such two (2) Business Day period of time, then Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any unsatisfied Supplemental Title Objection. “ Permitted Exceptions ” shall mean any title or survey item, other than Monetary Liens: (i) not raised as Title Objections by Buyer, or (ii) raised as Title Objections by Buyer but thereafter waived or deemed waived.

In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Sellers shall not be liable following the Closing for any indemnification obligations hereunder based on a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 4 if (X) Sellers did not have knowledge, prior to the Closing, of the facts constituting such breach, and (Y) Buyer had actual knowledge of such breach prior to Closing. If any party discovers, prior to Closing, that any representation or warranty of the other party is false, misleading or inaccurate in any material respect, and if the discovering party elects to proceed to Closing, such party cannot later bring a claim against the other as to such discovered matter.

 

  26  

 

 

18.4.6        Exclusive Right for Damages . Sellers and Buyer agree that if a Seller breaches its representations and warranties in Section 4 of this Agreement or the covenants and agreements of such Seller contained in this Agreement, Buyer’s sole and exclusive right to recover damages for such breach shall be to be indemnified for its Losses, not to exceed the Cap, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 18.4 and Buyer shall have no right to sue Seller for any damages in excess of the Cap, or ask for any other monetary relief against Seller, except that Buyer shall have the right to recover its actual third party out of pocket expenses in an amount not to exceed $75,000 as provided in Section 13.2 of this Agreement.

 

19.          Miscellaneous .

 

19.1        Assignability . Sellers shall not assign any of their respective right, title, claim or interest in, to or under this Agreement. Buyer may assign any or all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any entity resulting from a merger or consolidation with Buyer or any organization purchasing substantially all of Buyer’s assets, (ii) any entity succeeding to substantially all of the business and assets of Buyer, (iii) any subsidiary, affiliate or parent of Buyer, (iv) any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Buyer or (v) any entity resulting from the reorganization of Buyer outside of a bankruptcy reorganization. In such event, Buyer shall provide written notification to Sellers of such transfer on or before the date that is five (5) days prior to Closing. For purposes of this Agreement, “control” shall mean the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of an entity, whether through the ownership or voting securities, by contract, or otherwise. Except as set forth above in this Section 19.1 , Buyer shall have no right to assign this Agreement or any of Buyer’s rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Sellers (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). No assignment of this Agreement by Buyer shall relieve the entity named as Buyer herein from its obligations hereunder.

 

19.2        Governing Law; Bind and Inure . This Agreement shall be governed by the law of the State of Oklahoma without regard to its conflicts of laws principles and shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, assigns and personal representatives.

 

19.3        Recording . Neither this Agreement nor any notice or memorandum hereof shall be recorded in any public land record. A violation of this prohibition shall constitute a material breach entitling the non-breaching party to terminate this Agreement.

 

19.4        Time of the Essence . Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

 

19.5        Further Assurances . Each party will, whenever and as often as it shall be requested to do so by the other party, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered any and all such further conveyances, assignments, approvals, consents and any and all other documents and do any and all other acts as may be necessary to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 19.5 shall survive the Closing.

 

19.6        Exclusivity . Until the Closing Date or the date that this Agreement is terminated, Sellers shall not enter into any contract, or enter into or continue any negotiations, to sell the Property to any person or entity other than Buyer, nor will Sellers solicit proposals from, or furnish any non-public information to, any person or entity other than Sellers’ agents, attorneys and lenders and Buyer regarding the possible sale of the Property.

 

  27  

 

 

19.7        Non-Solicitation . For the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, Sellers covenant and agree that it shall not, nor shall it permit any of its Affiliates, or its successors and assigns, directly or indirectly, to call on or solicit any tenant of the Property for the purpose of leasing space to such tenant at another property managed, operated or otherwise controlled by Sellers or its Affiliates. The parties acknowledge that the restrictions on solicitation set forth in the preceding sentence are reasonable in scope and are essential to the protection of the legitimate business interests of Buyer. The parties further acknowledge and agree that since a remedy at law for any breach or attempted breach of the provisions of this Section 19.7 would be inadequate, Buyer shall be entitled to preliminary or permanent injunctive relief for any violation of this Section 19.7 , in addition to any other rights and remedies available to Buyer hereunder, at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the restrictions on solicitation in this Section 19.7 are judged unreasonable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the parties agree to the reformation of such restriction(s) by the court to limits which may reasonably grant Buyer the maximum protection permitted by applicable law in such circumstances. For the purposes of this Section, the term (a) “Affiliate” means any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture or other entity, regardless of how organized or identified, which is directly or indirectly controlled by a Seller, and (b) “control” means, when used with respect to any person, the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise, and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” have correlative meanings. The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing.

 

19.8        Headings . The headings preceding the text of the paragraphs and subparagraphs hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect.

 

19.9        Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 

19.10      Exhibits . All Exhibits which are referred to herein and which are attached hereto or bound separately and initialed by the parties are expressly made and constitute a part of this Agreement.

 

19.11      Use of Proceeds to Clear Title . To enable Sellers to make conveyance as herein provided, Sellers shall, at the time of Closing, direct the Escrow Agent to use the Purchase Price or any portion thereof to clear the title of any or all Monetary Liens, provided that provision reasonably satisfactory to Buyer’s attorney is made for prompt recording of all instruments so procured in accordance with conveyancing practice in the jurisdiction in which the Property is located.

 

  28  

 

 

19.12      Submission not an Offer or Option . The submission of this Agreement or a summary of some or all of its provisions for examination or negotiation by Buyer or Seller does not constitute an offer by Sellers or Buyer to enter into an agreement to sell or purchase the Property, and neither party shall be bound to the other with respect to any such purchase and sale until a definitive agreement satisfactory to Buyer and Seller in their sole discretion is executed and delivered by both Sellers and Buyer.

 

19.13      Entire Agreement; Amendments . This Agreement and the Exhibits and Schedules hereto set forth all of the promises, covenants, agreements, conditions and undertakings between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, inducements or conditions, express or implied, oral or written, except as contained herein. This Agreement may not be changed orally but only by an agreement in writing, duly executed by or on behalf of the party or parties against whom enforcement of any waiver, change, modification, consent or discharge is sought.

 

19.14      Counterparts; Electronic Signatures . This Agreement may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. Facsimile and electronically transmitted signatures shall for all purposes be treated as originals.

 

19.15      Attorneys’ Fees . In the event of any litigation arising out of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.

 

19.16      Waiver of Jury Trial . Each party to this Agreement hereby expressly AND IRREVOCABLY waives any right to trial by jury of any claim, demand, action or cause of action (each, an “Action”) (a) arising out of this Agreement, including any present or future amendment thereof or (b) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties or any of them with respect to this Agreement (as hereafter amended) or any other instrument, document or agreement executed or delivered in connection herewith, or the transactions related hereto or thereto, in each case whether such Action is now existing or hereafter arising, and whether sounding in contract or tort or otherwise and regardless of which party asserts such Action; and each party hereby agrees and consents that any such Action shall be decided by court trial without a jury, and that any party to this Agreement may file an original counterpart or a copy of this Section 19.16 with any court as written evidence of the consent of the parties to the waiver of any right they might otherwise have to trial by jury. THIS WAIVER IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY AFTER CONSULTATION WITH COUNSEL.

 

19.17      No Waiver . No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed, or shall constitute, a waiver of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver, nor shall a waiver in any instance constitute a waiver in any subsequent instance. No waiver shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party making the waiver.

 

  29  

 

 

19.18      Rules of Construction . Article and Section captions used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement. All references to “Article” or “Sections” without reference to a document other than this Agreement, are intended to designate articles and sections of this Agreement, and the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder,” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Article or Section, unless specifically designated otherwise. The use of the term “including” shall mean in all cases “including but not limited to,” unless specifically designated otherwise. No rules of construction against the drafter of this Agreement shall apply in any interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, any documents or certificates executed pursuant hereto, or any provisions of any of the foregoing.

 

19.19       Confidentiality . Neither Party shall make public disclosure with respect to this transaction either before or after Closing except:

 

(a)          as may be required by law, including without limitation disclosure required under Freedom of Information Act (“ FOIA ”) request, securities laws, or by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or by the rules of any stock exchange, or in connection with any filing or registration;

 

(b)         to such attorneys, accountants, present or prospective sources of financing, partners, directors, officers, employees and representatives of either Party or of such Party’s advisors who need to know such information for the purpose of evaluating and consummating the transaction, including the financing of the transaction;

 

(c)          to the extent that such information is a matter of public record; and

 

(d)         Buyer may issue a press release (the “ Press Release ”) upon full execution of this Agreement by all parties announcing the transactions proposed herein including the purchase price provided that the Press Release may be reviewed by Sellers in writing prior to its release, and Buyer shall not issue the Press Release without incorporation of Sellers’ reasonable comments thereto; or as may be permitted specifically by the terms of this Agreement.

Article II.
PREMISES

 

2.1            The Premises .   Landlord hereby leases the Premises to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases the Premises from Landlord, for the Term and upon the agreements, terms and conditions of this Lease. The Premises is depicted on Exhibit “A,” which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. The Premises has the address and contains the square footage specified in Article I above; provided, however , that any statement of square footage set forth in this Lease, or that may have been used in calculating any of the economic terms hereof, is an approximation which Landlord and Tenant agree is reasonable, no economic terms based thereon shall be subject to revision whether or not the actual square footage is more or less.

 

The Premises shall be leased by Tenant in “As Is,” “Where Is” and “With all Faults” condition and without any representation, express or implied warranty of any kind or nature as to the condition, use or occupancy which may be made thereof and without any improvements or alterations by Landlord. Prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord caused a property condition assessment to be performed by a professional commercial property inspector for the Premises (the “ Assessment Report ”), which sets forth the results of such assessment and the inspector’s recommended repairs and maintenance to the Premises, if any. A copy of the Assessment Report, which has been accepted by Landlord and Tenant, is attached as Exhibit “B” to this Lease. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the Assessment Report serves as conclusive evidence of the condition of the Premises as of the Commencement Date of this Lease.

 

  2  

 

 

No rights to any view or to light or air over any property, whether belonging to Landlord or any other person, are granted to Tenant by this Lease. If at any time any windows of the Premises are temporarily darkened or the light or view therefrom is obstructed, the same shall be without liability to Landlord and without any reduction or diminution of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.

 

Tenant hereby waives and disclaims any objection to, cause of action based upon, or claim that its obligations hereunder should be reduced or limited because of the condition of the Premises, the Building or the Project or the suitability of same for Tenant’s purposes. Furthermore, Tenant expressly warrants and represents that Tenant has relied solely on its own investigation and inspection of the Premises, the Building and the Project in its decision to enter into this Lease and let the Premises, and the continuing possession of the Premises by Tenant conclusively establishes that the Premises, the Building and the Project were in good and satisfactory condition for the use intended by Tenant as of the Commencement Date.

 

2.2            Landlord Reservation of Rights .   Landlord shall have no obligation, but hereby reserves the right, from time to time to install, use, maintain, repair, relocate and replace pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, and appurtenant meters and equipment for service to the Premises or to other parts of the Building which are above the ceiling surfaces, below the floor surfaces, within the walls and in the central core areas of the Building which are located within the Premises or located elsewhere in the Building. In connection with any of the foregoing activities of Landlord, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts while conducting such activities to minimize any interference with Tenant’s use of the Premises.

 

2.3            OCOM Sublease .   The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the OCOM Sublease is an absolute Triple Net Lease and that Tenant, as “Landlord” thereunder, contemplates that Subtenant is responsible thereunder for property taxes, insurance, and utilities, and furnishing all trade fixtures, equipment, furnishings, and expendables required by Subtenant in connection with its business and occupancy of the Premises as well as for all maintenance, cleaning, repairs, renovations, retrofitting, replacement and preservation of the Premises which are required to maintain the Premises in same order, condition and repair as of the Possession Date  (the “ Possession Date Condition ”), as confirmed by the Assessment Report attached as Exhibit “B” to this Lease. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties intend to the fullest extent possible that (a) such obligations shall be the obligations of Subtenant, and not the obligations of Tenant, (b) to the extent any such obligations are imposed on Tenant under this Lease, such obligations shall be coextensive with (and shall not exceed) Subtenant’s obligations under the OCOM Sublease, and Subtenant’s performance of such obligations under the OCOM Sublease shall satisfy Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, and (c) if Subtenant fails to perform such obligations under the OCOM Sublease, such failure shall not constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease and Landlord’s remedy shall be to reasonably direct Tenant to exercise on behalf of Landlord the rights and remedies to which Tenant, as “Landlord,” is entitled under the OCOM Sublease as provided in this Section; provided , that in clarification of the foregoing, (i) nothing in this Lease is intended to limit or excuse Subtenant from performing any obligations under the OCOM Sublease, and (ii) Subtenant’s failure to perform any obligations under the OCOM Sublease shall not excuse Tenant from its obligations to pay Additional Monthly Minimum Rent under this Lease.

 

Promptly upon becoming aware of facts or circumstances arising due to a noncompliance with the OCOM Sublease by Subtenant (a “ Subtenant Default ”), each of Landlord and Tenant shall promptly provide written notice to the other party of the Subtenant Default. Tenant, as sublandlord under the OCOM Sublease, shall take such action in response to a Subtenant Default as reasonably directed by Landlord; provided however, Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with one another in coordinating the response to a Subtenant Default. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Landlord shall have the right to reasonably direct the exercise of rights and performance of obligations of Tenant as sublandlord under the OCOM Sublease; provided however, Landlord shall indemnify, defend, and hold Tenant harmless from and against any liabilities incurred by Tenant arising, whether directly or indirectly, from Tenant taking action or inaction as sublandlord under the OCOM Sublease to the extent directed by Landlord in accordance with this Section.

 

  3  

 

 

2.4            Parking

 

(a)           Parking Rights .   Provided that Tenant shall not then be in Default under the terms and conditions of the Lease, Tenant shall have a license to use for the parking of standard size passenger automobiles, pick-up trucks, vans and sport utility vehicles all surface parking spaces at the Premises, including the number of non-exclusive and undesignated parking spaces, if any, set forth in the Basic Lease Information in the Parking Areas; provided, however , that Landlord shall not be required to enforce Tenant’s right to use such parking spaces; and, provided further, that the number of parking spaces allocated to Tenant hereunder shall be reduced on a proportionate basis in the event any of the parking spaces in the Parking Areas are taken or otherwise eliminated as a result of any Condemnation (as hereinafter defined) or casualty event affecting such Parking Areas or any modifications made by Landlord to such Parking Areas. All unreserved spaces will be on a first-come, first-served basis in common with other tenants of and visitors, clients and/or customers (collectively, “ Visitors ”) to the Building in parking spaces provided by Landlord from time to time in the Parking Areas.

Article III.
TERM AND COMMENCEMENT DATE

 

3.1            Term .   The term of this Lease (the “ Term ”) shall commence on the Commencement Date as set forth in Article I of this Lease (the “ Commencement Date ”) and shall terminate on the Expiration Date as set forth in Article I of this Lease (the “ Expiration Date ”), unless terminated earlier as provided in this Lease. Upon the Expiration Date of this Lease, or upon Tenant’s payment in full of all monetary obligations under this Lease, (1) this Lease shall terminate, and (2) Tenant shall assign, and Landlord shall assume, Tenant’s interest as “Landlord” under the OCOM Sublease, which shall thereafter continue in effect pursuant to its terms and conditions. If the OCOM Sublease terminates prior to the Expiration Date, this Lease also shall terminate; provided, however, Tenant shall be obligated to pay to Landlord as scheduled all remaining Additional Minimum Monthly Rent that would have been due and payable to Landlord through the Expiration Date of this Lease.

 

3.2            Possession    This Lease is being entered into concurrently with the closing of a purchase and sale transaction pursuant to which Landlord acquired the fee interest in the Premises from Tenant (the “ Closing ”). Accordingly, Tenant acknowledges that Tenant has been in possession of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date.

 

Article IV.
RENT

 

4.1            Minimum Monthly Rent .

 

(a)           OCOM Rent .    The OCOM Rent portion of the Minimum Monthly Rent will be payable from the Base Rent to be paid by the Subtenant under the OCOM Sublease, which Subtenant will pay directly to Landlord pursuant to a rent direction letter in the form attached as Exhibit “C” to this Lease (the “ Rent Direction Letter ”). If Subtenant defaults in its obligation to pay the OCOM Rent to Landlord in accordance with the Rent Direction Letter, Tenant, as sublandlord under the OCOM Sublease, shall take such action in response to such Subtenant Default as reasonably directed by Landlord in accordance with Section 2.3 of this Lease.

 

(b)           Additional Minimum Monthly Rent .   Tenant covenants and agrees to pay to Landlord in lawful money of the United States of America without setoff, offset, deduction, prior notice, or demand, in advance on the first (1st) day of each calendar month beginning with the Commencement Date, Additional Minimum Monthly Rent, plus applicable city and state taxes. The obligation of Tenant to pay Additional Minimum Monthly Rent shall be independent of every other obligation contained in this Lease and shall be independent of any amounts paid by any subtenant, licensee or any other party in possession of the Premises under the OCOM Sublease or any other sublease, license agreement or otherwise, and Tenant shall not be entitled to an offset against Additional Minimum Monthly Rent for any amounts due or to become due from Landlord. Notwithstanding any practice of Landlord from time to time of issuing to Tenant courtesy statements setting forth Additional Minimum Monthly Rent due, Tenant’s obligation to pay Additional Minimum Monthly Rent by its due date shall not be conditioned on Tenant’s receipt of any such statement. Landlord’s acceptance of less than the correct amount of Additional Minimum Monthly Rent shall be considered a payment on account of the earliest Additional Minimum Monthly Rent due. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Additional Minimum Monthly Rent then due shall be deemed to be other than on account of the Additional Minimum Monthly Rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Additional Minimum Monthly Rent or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease. In addition, Tenant shall pay and be liable for all rental, sales and use taxes or other similar taxes, if any, levied or imposed on Additional Minimum Monthly Rent or Additional Rent by any city, county, state or other governmental authority, which payments shall be in addition to all other payments required to be paid to Landlord by Tenant under the terms of this Lease and shall be paid to Landlord concurrently with the payment of Additional Minimum Monthly Rent or Additional Rent upon which such tax is based. Tenant may prepay Additional Minimum Monthly Rent in whole or in part at any time, and from time to time during the term of this Lease, without any prepayment premium or penalty.

 

  5  

 

 

4.2            Proration .   If the Commencement Date is other than the first (1st) day of a month, Additional Minimum Monthly Rent for that month will be prorated on a per diem basis and will be payable on the Commencement Date for the initial partial month, and the Expiration Date will be extended by the remainder of any partial calendar month in which the Commencement Date occurs.

 

4.3            Additional Rent .   All payments other than Additional Minimum Monthly Rent required of Tenant under this Lease shall constitute additional rent (“ Additional Rent ”) due and payable within ten (10) days of written demand. “ Rent ” shall mean all monetary obligations of Tenant under this Lease.

 

4.4            Operating Expenses; Property Taxes; Insurance

 

(a)           Operating Expenses .   Except as expressly set forth in this Lease, Tenant shall cause Subtenant to pay all costs of operation, management, maintenance, repair and replacement of the Building, the Premises, parking areas, real property, and improvements of which the Premises are a part.

 

(b)           Taxes .   Tenant shall cause Subtenant to pay all property taxes and directly as and when due and payable to the applicable taxing authority.

 

Landlord agrees to submit tax bills for the Premises to Tenant within at least thirty (30) days prior to the date the taxes on such tax bills are required to be paid to the taxing authority, and Tenant shall cause Subtenant to pay such taxes directly to the taxing authority prior to the date such taxes are due without penalties or fees. At the time Tenant (or Subtenant) pays such taxes, Tenant shall concurrently provide (or cause Subtenant to provide) Landlord with reasonable evidence of such payment.

 

(c)           Insurance .   Tenant will carry and maintain, at Tenant’s expense, or shall cause Subtenant to carry and maintain, insurance in the types and amounts specified in Article 6 of the OCOM Sublease or such other industry standard amounts as Landlord may from time to time reasonably request, with insurance companies and on forms reasonably satisfactory to Landlord or which are otherwise industry standard.

 

4.5            Excise and Personal Property Taxes .   Each month, with the payment of Additional Minimum Monthly Rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent the amount of any transaction privilege, sales, use, gross proceeds, occupancy, rental or other excise tax or assessment whatsoever then due on account of (or measured by) any amounts payable under this Lease by Tenant (or the receipts thereof by Landlord). If an audit by any taxing authority should at any time result in an assessment of additional taxes with respect to the foregoing, Tenant shall pay the amount of such taxes to Landlord within ten (10) days of written demand. This obligation shall survive the expiration (or earlier termination) of the Lease and shall be enforceable by Landlord as a debt thereafter. Tenant shall also report and pay directly to the applicable governmental authority all transaction privilege, sales, excise, employment and personal property taxes assessed against or imposed upon any improvements, alterations, personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant contained in, located about or used in connection with the Premises, and with respect to any sales, service, professional or other business activities conducted by Tenant on the Premises (collectively “ Tenant’s Taxes ”). Upon receipt of written request from Landlord, Tenant shall furnish for Landlord’s inspection, within thirty (30) days, official receipts of the appropriate taxing authority or other proof satisfactory to Landlord evidencing payment of Tenant’s Taxes.

 

  6  

 

 

4.6            Late Charges and Interest .   Tenant hereby acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Landlord 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 Landlord by the terms of any ground lease, mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of Additional Minimum Monthly Rent or other payment required of Tenant hereunder is not paid within five (5) days following the date due, Landlord may, at its option, charge Tenant a late charge (“ Late Charge ”) equal to ten percent (10%) of the overdue amount as liquidated damages to compensate Landlord for potential inability to meet financial obligations and the additional expense of handling delinquent payments (the exact amount of Landlord’s injury being impractical to calculate). At Landlord’s option, any sum not paid by Tenant when due shall also bear interest at the rate specified in Section 21.2 from date due until paid in full. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Landlord’s acceptance of a late charge (or interest) shall not waive the underlying delinquency or bar the exercise of other remedies for non-payment under this Lease. Landlord’s acceptance of a delinquent payment without a late charge (or interest) shall not waive the right of Landlord to impose or collect a late charge or interest on a subsequent delinquent payment. In the event that a late charge is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for three (3) consecutive installments of Additional Minimum Monthly Rent, then notwithstanding Section 4.1 or any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, Additional Minimum Monthly Rent shall, at Landlord’s option, become due and payable quarterly in advance.

 

4.7            Standby Letter of Credit .   On or before the Commencement Date, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an irrevocable standby letter of credit (“ Letter of Credit ”) addressed to Landlord as beneficiary and issued by a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Buyer in an amount equal to the Additional Minimum Monthly Rent that Tenant is obligated to pay to Landlord under this Lease from the Commencement Date to the Expiration Date of this Lease, less the Holdback Amount (as defined below). The terms of the Letter of Credit shall be agreed to by Landlord and Tenant prior to the Commencement Date, and the Letter of Credit shall be deposited with American Eagle Title Insurance Company (the “ Escrow Agent ”) on the Commencement Date, to be held by Escrow Agent in compliance with the Post-Closing Escrow Agreement (as defined below). If Tenant fails to pay Additional Minimum Monthly Rent when due under this Lease and such default is not cured within any applicable notice and cure period, Landlord shall have the right to draw on the Letter of Credit for payment of Additional Minimum Monthly Rent by giving written notice to Tenant and the Escrow Agent, and submitting to Escrow Agent, for delivery to the issuer of the Letter of Credit, a drawing certificate in the form attached to the Letter of Credit. The amount of the Letter of Credit shall be reduced annually as the remaining Additional Minimum Monthly Rent to be paid by Tenant under this Lease is reduced. The Letter of Credit shall be released and cancelled upon payment in full of all Additional Minimum Monthly Rent due to Landlord under this Lease. If the Letter of Credit has an annual expiration date or an expiration date other than the Expiration Date of this Lease, Tenant shall cause the Letter of Credit to be renewed at least ninety (90) days prior to such expiration date. At the Closing (as defined in Section 3.2 of this Lease), Escrow Agent shall retain a portion of the Purchase Price equal to Two Hundred Twenty Thousand Seven Hundred Eighty-Two and No/100 Dollars ($220,782.00) (the “ Holdback Amount ”), in an escrow account to be held by Escrow Agent pursuant to a post-closing escrow agreement to be executed and delivered at Closing by Landlord, Tenant, and Escrow Agent. The Holdback Amount shall be held and disbursed by Escrow Agent and applied to the last three (3) months of Additional Minimum Monthly Rent due under this Lease in compliance with the Post-Closing Escrow Agreement.

4.8            Time and Place of Payment .   All amounts to be paid by Tenant hereunder shall be paid to Landlord, on or before 5:00 p.m. local time by deposit into the account set forth on Schedule 4.8 attached hereto, or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing.

 

4.9            Triple Net Lease – Intent .   Landlord and Tenant understand and agree that this Lease is what is commonly known in the commercial real estate industry as a ‘Net, Net, Net Lease’ or ‘Triple Net Lease’. Tenant recognizes and acknowledges, without limiting the generality of any other terms or provisions of this Lease, that it is the intent of the parties hereto that the Subtenant under the OCOM Lease shall be responsible for payment of all costs, expenses and obligations of any kind or nature associated with operating and maintaining the Premises, including real estate taxes, liability and property insurance costs, except where same are expressly and solely the obligation of Landlord, and all amounts to be paid by Tenant hereunder as Rent shall be net to Landlord.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed that any judgment against Landlord resulting from any default or other claim under this Lease shall be satisfied only out of the net rents, issues, profits and other income actually received from the operation of the Building, and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or its members, managers, partners, officers, employees or representatives or any of their personal assets for satisfaction of any judgment with respect to this Lease. In no event shall Tenant or any person claiming by, through or under Tenant have the right to levy execution against any property of Landlord’s members, managers, partners, officers, employees or representatives, other than Landlord’s property.

14.1          Damage; Repair .   If all or a substantial portion of the Premises is rendered untenantable or inaccessible by damage to all or any part of the Building from fire, the elements, accident, or other casualty (collectively, “ Casualty ”) then, unless Landlord or Subtenant is entitled, and elects, to terminate this Lease pursuant to the provisions of Article 18of the OCOM Sublease, Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to cause Subtenant, at its expense, to repair the Premises and/or Building, as the case may be, to substantially their former condition in accordance with the provisions in Article 18 of the OCOM Sublease. In the event of any Casualty of all or any part of the Premises, Tenant shall immediately: (A) notify Landlord thereof; and (B) deliver to Landlord all insurance proceeds received by Tenant (whether from policies carried by Subtenant or by Tenant) with respect to the Premises and/or Building, excluding proceeds for Tenant’s furniture and other personal property, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all rights of Tenant as “Landlord” under Article 18 of the OCOM Sublease to receive such insurance proceeds.

 

  13  

 

 

14.2          Abatement .   In the event of a casualty, (i) there shall be no abatement of Rent or Additional Rent from the date of the Casualty through the date of substantial completion of the repair with regard to any portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using by reason of such damage or its repair, and (ii) in no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenant’s business or Tenant’s personal property, alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises arising from a Casualty or by reason of any repairs to the Premises and/or the Building necessitated by the Casualty.

 

14.3          Waiver .   Landlord and Tenant agree that the terms of this Lease and the OCOM Sublease shall govern the effect of any damage to or destruction of the Premises with respect to the termination of this Lease, and hereby waive the provisions of any present or future statute to the extent inconsistent herewith. Tenant waives any statutory rights of termination which may arise by reason of any partial or total destruction of the Premises.

 

Article XV.
ENCUMBRANCES

 

15.1          Landlord’s Consent Required .   Neither this Lease nor any right to or interest in the Premises or any of the Leasehold Improvements or the Building may be encumbered by Tenant without the prior written consent of Landlord, and any such encumbrance shall be an Event of Default under this Lease.

 

Article XVI.
CONDEMNATION

 

16.1          Condemnation .   For purpose of this Article XVI , “ Condemnation ” shall mean (i) a taking by any public or quasi-public entity, whether by legal proceedings or otherwise, or (ii) a voluntary sale or transfer by Landlord under threat of condemnation or while legal proceedings for condemnation are pending.

 

16.2          Termination .   If the Premises are totally taken by condemnation, or if a portion of the Premises is taken by condemnation, the provisions in Article 17 of the OCOM Sublease shall apply and Landlord shall have all rights of Tenant as “Landlord” under Article 18 of the OCOM Sublease.

 

16.3          Award .   Landlord shall be entitled to and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord the entire amount of any award in connection with the condemnation.

  14  

 

 

Article XVII.
SUBLEASE, TRANSFER OR ASSIGNMENT

 

17.1          Landlord’s Consent Required .   Tenant shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer, or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto, to any other person to occupy or use the Premises, or any portion thereof (a “ Transfer ”), without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall be on such terms and conditions as Landlord requires, in its commercially reasonable discretion; provided , that Tenant may effect a Transfer without Landlord’s consent to an entity whose net worth and creditworthiness meets or exceeds the creditworthiness of Tenant as of the date hereof, so long as Tenant provides Landlord with at least forty-five (45) days prior written notice of the proposed Transfer and all supporting documentation evidencing such creditworthiness as Landlord may reasonably require. A consent to one Transfer shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent Transfer. A Transfer without such consent shall be void and shall, at the option of Landlord, constitute an Event of Default under this Lease. The consent of Landlord pursuant to this Section 17.1 to any Transfer shall not relieve Tenant of any of its obligations under this Lease including the obligation to pay rent. However, Landlord may consent to subsequent sublettings and assignments of the sublease or any amendments or modifications thereto without notifying Tenant or anyone else liable on the Lease or sublease and without obtaining their consent, and such action shall not relieve such persons from liability under this Lease or sublease. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord acknowledges and hereby consents to the sublease of the Premises by Tenant to Subtenant pursuant to the OCOM Sublease; provided , that for the avoidance of doubt, Landlord’s consent to the OCOM Sublease shall not relieve Tenant of the obligation to provide Landlord with any proposed amendments, waivers or side letter agreements to the OCOM Sublease for Landlord’s prior approval (which may be withheld in its sole discretion).

 

17.2          Notice of Sublease, Transfer or Assignment

 

(a)           Tenant shall notify Landlord of any desire to Transfer in writing to Landlord at least forty-five (45) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the Transfer, together with: (i) the name of the proposed subtenant or assignee; (ii) the nature of the proposed subtenant’s or assignee’s business to be carried on in the Premises; (iii) all of the terms and provisions of the proposed sublease or assignment; and (iv) such financial information as Landlord may reasonably request concerning the proposed subtenant or assignee. Tenant’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 17.2 shall be an Event of Default of this Lease. Each request for consent to an assignment or subletting shall be in writing, accompanied by information relevant to Landlord’s determination as to the financial and operational responsibility and appropriateness of the proposed assignee or subtenant, including but not limited to the intended use and/or required modification of the Premises, if any, together with a non-refundable deposit of $1,000 as reasonable consideration for Landlord’s considering and processing the request for consent. Tenant agrees to provide Landlord with such other or additional information and/or documentation as may be reasonably requested by Landlord.

 

(b)           In determining whether to reasonably consent to a proposed assignment or subletting, (i) it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to any such assignment or subletting if a proposed assignee’s or subtenant’s anticipated or proposed use of the Premises involves an increase in the generation, storage, use, treatment or disposal of any Hazardous Substance over that permitted Tenant or Subtenant hereunder immediately prior to such assignment, or pro rata if regarding a sublease of less than all of the Premises, or will in any way increase any potential risk or liability to Landlord arising out of or related to Hazardous Substances; and (ii) Landlord may consider, among other things, any or all of the following factors: (1) the reputation of the proposed assignee or subtenant (including any principals, partners or shareholders of such assignee or subtenant), including, without limitation, the reputation of the proposed assignee or subtenant for dishonesty, criminal conduct and unethical business practices; (2) whether the business experience and quality of business operations of the proposed assignee or subtenant is comparable to that of Tenant; (3) the credit history of the proposed assignee or subtenant; and/or (4) the intended use of the Premises by the proposed assignee or subtenant.

 

  15  

 

 

(c)           Any proposed assignment or sublease agreement shall contain provisions to the effect that (A) such assignment or sublease is subject and subordinate to all of the terms and provisions of this Lease and to the rights of Landlord and that the assignee or subtenant shall comply with all applicable provisions of this Lease; (B) such assignment or sublease may not be modified without the prior written consent of Landlord (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); (C) if this Lease shall terminate before the expiration of such assignment or sublease, the assignee or subtenant thereunder will, solely at Landlord’s option and only upon the express written notice of attornment from Landlord, attorn to Landlord and waive any right the assignee or subtenant may have to terminate the assignment or sublease or surrender possession thereunder as a result of the termination of this Lease; and (D) if the assignee or subtenant receives a written notice from Landlord stating that Tenant is in default under this Lease, the assignee or subtenant shall thereafter pay all rentals or payments under the assignment or sublease agreement directly to Landlord until such default has been cured. Any attempt or offer by an assignee or subtenant to attorn to Landlord shall not be binding or effective without the express written consent of Landlord. Tenant hereby collaterally assigns to Landlord, as security for the performance of its obligations hereunder, all of Tenant’s right, title, and interest in and to any assignment or sublease now or hereafter existing for all or part of the Premises. Tenant shall, at the request of Landlord, execute such other instruments or documents as Landlord may request to evidence this collateral assignment.

 

17.3          Rent .   Landlord may collect Rent directly from the assignees, subtenants, or other transferees; but no Transfer shall be a deemed a waiver of Landlord’s rights under this Article or the acceptance of the proposed assignee, subtenant occupant or transferee, or a release of Tenant from the further performance of the covenants obligating Tenant under this Lease. Notwithstanding any Transfer, Tenant shall remain fully and primarily liable under this Lease and shall not be released from performing any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease. In the event of any assignment or sublease (other than the OCOM Sublease), Landlord shall receive as additional rent hereunder fifty percent (50%) of Tenant’s Excess Consideration (as defined below) derived from such assignment or sublease. If Tenant shall elect to assign or sublet, Tenant shall use reasonable and good faith efforts to secure consideration from any such assignee or subtenant which would be generally equivalent to then-current market rent, but in no event shall Tenant’s monetary obligations to Landlord, as set forth in this Lease, be reduced.

 

(a)           In the event of a sublease other than the OCOM Sublease, “ Excess Consideration ” shall mean all rent, additional rent or other consideration actually received by Tenant from such subtenant and/or actually paid by such subtenant on behalf of Tenant in connection with the subletting in excess of the rent, additional rent and other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease during the term of the sublease on a per square foot basis if less than all of the Premises is subleased, less marketing costs, attorneys’ fees and brokerage commissions, if any, reasonably incurred by Tenant to procure the sublease, and the cost of any alterations made by Tenant specifically for the benefit of such subtenant.

 

(b)           In the event of an assignment, “ Excess Consideration ” shall mean key money, bonus money or other consideration paid by the assignee to Tenant in connection with such assignment, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services rendered by Tenant to assignee or for assets, fixtures, inventory, equipment, or furniture transferred by Tenant to assignee in connection with such assignment, less marketing costs, attorneys’ fees and brokerage commissions, if any, reasonably incurred by Tenant to procure the assignment, and the cost of any alterations made by Tenant specifically for the benefit of such assignee.

 

In either case, if part of the Excess Consideration shall be payable by the assignee or subtenant other than in cash, then Landlord’s share of such non-cash consideration shall be in such form as is reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

 

  16  

 

 

17.4          Documentation .   If Landlord consents, or is deemed to have consented, to a Transfer, Tenant may thereafter enter into a written assignment or sublease with the subtenant or assignee, provided that (i) Landlord approves in advance the form and substance of the sublease or assignment agreement, which shall contain such other terms and conditions as Landlord shall require in its sole discretion, (ii) such assignment or sublease is executed within sixty (60) days after Landlord has given its consent to same, (iii) Tenant pays (or causes to be paid) all amounts owed to Landlord under this Article, (iv) there is no Event of Default under this Lease as of the effective date of the assignment or sublease, (v) there have been no material adverse changes (since the date on which Landlord’s consent was given) with respect to the financial condition of the proposed subtenant or assignee or the business which said party plans to conduct on the Premises, and (vi) a fully executed original of such assignment or sublease (which shall state that the assignee or subtenant agrees to be bound by all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease) is delivered promptly to Landlord. Tenant agrees to defend and indemnify fully Landlord with respect to all costs (including attorneys’ fees expended by Landlord in connection with any such claim) and liability for compensation claimed by any broker or agent employed by Tenant in connection with any Transfer.

 

17.5          No Termination of OCOM Sublease .   The mutual termination or cancellation of this Lease, or a termination hereof by Landlord for Event of Default by Tenant shall not work a merger, and shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of Tenant’s interest under the OCOM Sublease.

 

17.6          Definition of Sublease, Transfer or Assignment .   If Tenant is a partnership or limited liability company, a withdrawal or change, voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, of the member, members, partner or partners owning 51% or more of the partnership or the limited liability company, or the dissolution of the partnership or limited liability company, shall be deemed a Transfer. If Tenant is a corporation, any dissolution, merger, consolidation, or other reorganization of Tenant, or the sale or other transfer of a controlling percentage of the capital stock of Tenant, or the sale of 51% of the value of assets of Tenant, shall be deemed a Transfer. The phrase “ controlling percentage ” means the ownership of, and the right to vote, stock possessing at least 51% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Tenant’s capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote for the election of directors. This paragraph shall not apply to corporations whose stock is traded through an exchange or over the counter. A Transfer of Tenant’s interest in this Lease without Landlord’s specific prior written consent shall be a Default curable after notice pursuant to Section 17.2 . Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord hereby consents to Tenant’s assignment of its rights and obligations under this Lease to an affiliate of Tenant so long as Anthony Cruse continues to holds, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of an ownership interest in any such affiliate and such affiliate remains subject to his control, and agrees that such assignment shall not constitute a Transfer as defined herein.

 

17.7          REIT Protection .   Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, (a) no assignment or subletting shall be consummated on any basis such that the rental or other amounts to be paid by the transferee or sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on the income or profits derived by any person from the Building; (b) Tenant shall not consummate an assignment or subletting with any person in which Landlord owns, directly or indirectly (by applying constructive ownership rules set forth in Section 856(d)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended [the “ Code ”]), (i) in the case of any person which is a corporation, stock of such person possessing 10 percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote, or 10 percent or more of the total value of shares of all classes of stock of such person, or (ii) in the case of any person which is not a corporation, an interest of 10 percent or more in the assets or net profits of such person; and (c) Tenant shall not consummate an assignment or subletting with any person or in any manner which could cause any portion of the amounts received by Landlord pursuant to this Lease or any assignment or subletting document to fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto or that could cause any other income of Landlord, or affiliate of Landlord, to fail to qualify as income described in Section 856(c)(2) of the Code. Consistent with the foregoing, Tenant shall first provide to Landlord in writing the name of the proposed transferee or sublessee, as applicable, and the terms of the assignment or sublease, as applicable, and Landlord shall within twenty (20) days of receipt review and approve such transaction as being in compliance with the terms of this Section 17.7 .

 

  17  

 

 

17.8          Additional Terms and Conditions Applicable to Subletting .   The following terms and conditions shall apply to any subletting by Tenant of all or any part of the Premises and shall be deemed included in all subleases under this Lease whether or not expressly incorporated therein:

 

(a)           Tenant hereby assigns and transfers to Landlord all of Tenant’s interest in all rentals and income arising from any sublease of all or a portion of the Premises heretofore or hereafter made by Tenant, and Landlord may collect such rent and income and apply same toward Tenant’s obligations under this Lease; provided, however , that until a Event of Default (as defined in Section 19.1 ) shall occur in the performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, Tenant may, except as otherwise provided in this Lease, receive, collect and enjoy the rents accruing under such sublease. Landlord shall not, by reason of this or any other assignment of such sublease to Landlord, nor by reason of the collection of the rents from a subtenant, be deemed liable to the subtenant for any failure of Tenant to perform and comply with any of Tenant’s obligations to such subtenant under such sublease. Tenant hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any such subtenant, upon receipt of a written notice from Landlord stating that a Event of Default exists in the performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, to pay to Landlord the rents and other charges due and to become due under the sublease. Subtenant shall rely upon any such statement and request from Landlord and shall pay such rents and other charges to Landlord without any obligation or right to inquire as to whether such Event of Default exists and notwithstanding any notice or claim from Tenant to the contrary. Tenant shall have no right or claim against said subtenant, or, until the Event of Default has been cured, against Landlord, for any such rents and other charges so paid by said subtenant to Landlord.

 

(b)           In the event of an Event of Default by Tenant in the performance of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord, at its option and without any obligation to do so, may require any subtenant to attorn to Landlord, in which event Landlord shall undertake the obligations of the sublandlord under such sublease from the time of the exercise of said option to the expiration of such sublease; provided, however , Landlord shall not be liable for any prepaid rents or security deposit paid by such subtenant to such sublandlord or for any other prior Defaults or Event of Defaults of such sublandlord under such sublease.

 

(c)           Any matter or thing requiring the consent of the sublandlord under a sublease shall also require the consent of Landlord herein.

 

(d)           No subtenant shall further assign or sublet all or any part of the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent.

 

17.9          Assignment by Landlord .   Landlord may freely assign, sell or otherwise transfer the Premises or this Lease, or Landlord’s interest hereunder, without Tenant’s consent.

 

Article XVIII.
SUBORDINATION/ATTORNMENT

 

18.1          Subordination .   Tenant’s interest under this Lease shall be subordinate to both the priority and terms of the lien of any ground lease, deed of trust or other construction or permanent mortgage financing (hereinafter collectively referred to as “ Mortgage Financing ”) now or hereinafter recorded by Landlord against the Premises or on the land or Building of which the Premises are a part, to any and all advances made on the security thereof, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof. Tenant agrees that until a lender becomes the owner of the Premises, if ever, no lender holding the lien of any such Mortgage Financing (a “ Security Device ”) shall have no duty, liability or obligation to perform any of the obligations of Landlord under this Lease, but that in the event of Landlord’s default with respect to any such obligation, Tenant will give any lender whose name and address have been furnished Tenant in writing for such purpose notice of Landlord’s default and allow such lender thirty (30) days (or if more than thirty (30) days is required to effect such cure, such additional time as may be necessary) following receipt of such notice for the cure of said default before invoking any remedies Tenant may have by reason thereof. If any lender shall elect to have this Lease and/or Tenant’s rights hereunder superior to the lien of its Security Device and shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, this Lease and such rights shall be deemed prior to such Security Device, notwithstanding the relative dates of the documentation or recordation thereof.

 

  18  

 

 

18.2          Modification Upon Refinance .   If at any time Landlord desires to obtain new Mortgage Financing for the land and Building of which the Premise are a part, Tenant agrees to reasonable amendments to the Lease as may be requested by a lender who proposes to fund such Mortgage Financing provided such amendments do not decrease Tenant’s rights or Landlord’s obligations, or increase Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Tenant further consents to an assignment of the Landlord’s interest in this Lease to Landlord’s lender as required under any Mortgage Financing now or hereafter recorded.

 

18.3          Foreclosure Sale .   If the Premises or the Building or the land of which the Building or the Premises are a part is sold pursuant to a default under any underlying Mortgage Financing, or pursuant to a transfer in lieu of foreclosure, Tenant, at the mortgagee’s or purchaser’s election, shall not disaffirm this Lease but shall attorn to the mortgagee or purchaser, and if so requested enter in to a new lease for the remainder of the Lease Term, so long as such new lease does not decrease Tenant’s rights or Landlord’s obligations or increase Tenant’s obligations beyond that under this Lease. In the event of such foreclosure and such election, such new owner shall not: (i) be liable for any act or omission of any prior lessor or with respect to events occurring prior to acquisition of ownership, or (ii) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord.

 

18.4          Self-Operative .   This provision shall be self-operative; provided, however , Tenant agrees to execute and deliver, if Landlord shall so request, such further instruments (in recordable form) as are necessary to evidence Tenant’s subordination agreement or otherwise subordinate this lease to the lien of any Mortgage Financing, to acknowledge Tenant’s consent to assignment, and to affirm the attornment provisions set forth herein. Tenant’s obligation to provide a subordination agreement under this Section 18.4 shall be conditioned on Tenant receiving from the holder of the Security Device commercially reasonable covenants of non-disturbance on such holder’s form.

 

18.5          Cooperation .   Tenant agrees to cooperate in good faith with Landlord and its lenders in connection with any financing by Landlord, including reasonably consenting to an amendment to the Lease, consistent with Sections 18.2 and 18.4 , based upon a lender’s good faith determination of any deficiencies in the Lease that cause the Lease not to be financeable; provided that any such amendment does not (a) materially decrease Tenant’s rights or Landlord’s obligations, (b) materially increase Tenant’s obligations, or (c) affect Monthly Minimum Rents or Additional Rent.

 

Article XIX.
DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

 

19.1          Default .   The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a “ Default ” or “ Event of Default ” by Tenant under this Lease:

 

(a)           Tenant’s failure to pay Additional Minimum Monthly Rent, Additional Rent, Late Charges, Interest or any other sum required by this Lease to be paid by Tenant on the date same is due, and such failure continues for ten (10) days after written notice thereof from Landlord;

 

  19  

 

 

(b)           Tenant’s failure to perform any other provision of this Lease that is not an obligation of Subtenant under the OCOM Lease, if the failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord;

 

(c)           If a petition or proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Act or any amendment thereto is filed or commenced by or against Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease, and if against Tenant or any guarantor, said proceedings shall not be dismissed within sixty (60) days following the commencement thereof;

 

(d)           If Tenant is adjudged insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or enters into a similar arrangement with its creditors;

 

(e)           If a writ of attachment or execution is levied on Tenant’s interest in the Premises and is not released or satisfied within sixty (60) days thereafter;

 

(f)           If a receiver or trustee is appointed in any proceeding or action to which Tenant is a party with authority to take possession or control of the Premises or the business conducted thereon by Tenant;

 

(g)           A Default or the occurrence of an Event of Default under any lease (other than this Lease), agreement or contract between Tenant and Landlord;

 

(h)           Tenant’s dissolution or liquidation; or

 

(i)           The occurrence of any other event described as a Default or Event of Default elsewhere in this Lease, or any Exhibit or amendment hereto.

 

19.2          Remedies .   Upon a default by Tenant under this Lease that does not constitute a Subtenant Default (as provided in Section 2.3 ), Landlord shall have the following remedies, which shall not be exclusive but shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to any other remedies now or hereafter allowed at law or in equity:

 

(a)           Landlord may terminate Tenant’s right to possess the Premises without terminating this Lease by giving written notice thereof to Tenant, in which event Tenant shall pay to Landlord: (1) all Rent and other amounts accrued under this Lease to the date of termination of possession; and (2) all Additional Minimum Monthly Rent required hereunder to be paid by Tenant during the remainder of the Term. No such taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention has been given to Tenant by Landlord. Should Landlord at any time terminate this Lease by reason of any Default by Tenant, in addition to any other remedies it may have, Landlord may recover from Tenant as a debt, payable on demand, all losses Landlord may incur with respect thereto, including, without limitation, the expenses of recovering the Premises and the value (at the time of the Lease termination) of the economic value of the Lease for the remainder of the Term, all of such losses (and such debt) to be immediately due and payable from Tenant to Landlord upon written demand. If termination of this Lease is obtained through the provisional remedy of unlawful detainer, Landlord shall have the right to recover in such proceeding the unpaid rent and damages as are recoverable therein, or Landlord may reserve therein the right to recover all or any part thereof in a separate suit for such rent and/or damages. If a notice and grace period required hereunder was not previously given, a notice to pay rent or quit, or to perform or quit, as the case may be, given to Tenant under any statute authorizing the forfeiture of leases for unlawful detainer shall also constitute the applicable notice for grace period purposes required hereunder;

 

  20  

 

 

(b)           Landlord may terminate this Lease at any time, and whether or not Landlord has exercised the rights as outlined in Section 19.2(a) above, repossess and enjoy the Premises as its former estate. Such forfeiture shall be wholly without prejudice to the right of Landlord to recover arrears of rent or damages for any antecedent breach of Tenant’s covenants, obligations or agreements under this Lease, and provided further that, notwithstanding any such forfeiture, Landlord may recover from Tenant the economic value of the Lease for the remainder of the Term suffered by reason of this Lease having been terminated. No such action on the part of Landlord and no reentry or taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on the part of Landlord to terminate this Lease unless, at the time of or subsequent to such reentry or taking of possession, written notice of such intention has been given to Tenant;

 

(c)           Subject to the rights of Subtenant under the OCOM Sublease, Landlord may re-enter and retake possession of the Premises, using such lawful force (against the Premises) as it may deem necessary and lawful for that purpose, without being liable in respect thereof or for any loss or damage occasioned thereby. Tenant hereby expressly releases Landlord from all actions, proceedings, claims and demands whatsoever for or in respect of any such forcible entry, or any loss or damage that may be sustained by Tenant in respect therewith;

 

(d)           Landlord may remove all Tenant’s personal property and trade fixtures (but not the personal property and trade fixtures of Subtenant) and store them all at Tenant’s risk and expense; if Tenant fails to pay the cost of such storage after the property has been stored for a period of ninety (90) days, Landlord may sell such property at public or private sale, in a manner and at such times and places as Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion deems advisable, without prior notice to or demand upon Tenant for payment of any part of the cost of removal or storage. The proceeds of any such sale shall be applied (i) first, to the payment of the expenses of such sale, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees actually incurred; (ii) next, to the payment of expenses for removal and storage of the property; (iii) next, to the payment of any other sums then due or to become due from Tenant to Landlord under the terms of this Lease; and (iv) last, the balance, if any, to Tenant. The remedy provided in this paragraph is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any rights or remedies Landlord may have pursuant to its statutory landlord’s lien or any security interest established herein. Tenant hereby waives all claims for damages that may be caused by Landlord’s reentering and retaking possession of the Premises or removing and storing Tenant’s personal property and/or trade fixtures, and Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any loss, liability, cost, expense or damage resulting from any such act. No reentry by Landlord shall constitute or be construed as a forcible entry by Landlord; and/or

 

(e)           The expiration or termination of this Lease and/or the termination of Tenant’s right to possession shall not relieve Tenant from liability under any indemnity provisions of this Lease as to matters occurring or accruing during the Term hereof or by reason of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises.

 

(f)           Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, it is expressly understood and agreed that except for Tenant’s obligation to pay Additional Minimum Monthly Rent, which shall be secured by a Letter of Credit and the Holdback Amount as provided in Section 4.7 of this Lease, the liability of Tenant to Landlord (or any person or entity claiming by, through or under Landlord) for any Default by Tenant under the terms of this Lease or any matter relating to or arising out of the occupancy or use of the Premises shall be recoverable only from Tenant’s leasehold interest under the OCOM Sublease, and Tenant (and its members, managers, partners, officers, employees or representatives) shall not be personally liable for any deficiency.

Article XX.
SECURITY MEASURES

 

20.1          Security Measures .   Landlord shall have no obligation whatsoever to provide guard service or other security measures to the Premises or Building, and Tenant assumes all responsibility for the protection of the Premises and Tenant’s property, its employees, agents, and invitees from the acts of third parties. Tenant agrees that in no event shall Landlord be liable for the effectiveness of any guard service, alarms, locked or secured entries to the Premises or Building or any other security measures, or for any supplemental security measures installed or required by Tenant applicable to the Premises.

 

Article XXI.
MISCELLANEOUS

 

21.1          Estoppel Certificates .   From time to time, Tenant, within ten (10) business days after notice, shall execute and deliver to Landlord, in recordable form, a certificate stating that this Lease is in full force and effect (as modified, if applicable, and stating the modification) and confirming any other information whatsoever reasonably requested by Landlord to establish the terms and status of the terms created by this Lease. Any purchaser or mortgagee may rely on this estoppel certificate. If Tenant fails to deliver the requested certificate within the ten (10) business day period, Landlord may prepare, execute and deliver the certificate on behalf of Tenant to any third party (who is expected to rely thereon) and Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact (coupled with an interest) with full power to do so.

 

21.2          Interest Rate .   Except where specified to the contrary elsewhere in this Lease, any payment of money required of Tenant, if not paid when due, shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of 5% over the published prime commercial borrowing rate of the Bank of America, N.A., adjusted daily, or 12% per annum, whichever is greater.

 

21.3          Default by Landlord; Liability of Landlord .   In the event of any breach or default by Landlord in the performance of its obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice specifying such default with particularity, and Landlord shall thereupon have thirty (30) days (plus such additional reasonable period if more than thirty (30) days shall be required because of the nature of the default, provided that Landlord has commenced the curing of such default within such thirty (30) day period and is proceeding diligently thereafter) in which to cure any such default. Unless and until Landlord fails to so cure any default after such notice, Tenant shall not have any remedy or cause of action by reason thereof. Any claims by Tenant against Landlord shall be limited to the extent of Landlord’s interest in the Building, notwithstanding any Applicable Law to the contrary. Furthermore, Tenant expressly waives any and all rights to proceed against the individual partners, members, officers, directors or shareholders of Landlord.

Tenant agrees that if any Security Deposit or prepaid rents have been paid by Tenant, Landlord may transfer or credit the Security Deposit or prepaid rent to Landlord’s successor, and upon such transfer or credit Landlord shall immediately and automatically be discharged from further liability for the same. The term “Landlord” as used herein shall mean the owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title to the Premises, or, if this is a sublease, of the tenant’s interest in the prior lease. In the event of a transfer of Landlord’s title or interest in the Premises or in this Lease, Landlord shall deliver to the transferee or assignee (in cash or by credit) any and all prepaid rent held by Landlord at the time of such transfer or assignment. Upon such transfer or assignment, the prior Landlord shall be relieved of all liability with respect to the obligations and/or covenants under this Lease thereafter to be performed by “Landlord”, except for obligations and/or covenants arising from events happening prior to such transfer or assignment. The obligations and/or covenants in this Lease to be performed by Landlord shall be binding only upon Landlord as defined in this Section 21.3 .

21.4          Binding Effect .   This Lease shall extend to and bind the respective heirs, personal representatives, successors, and permitted assigns of the parties.

 

21.5          No Venture/Partnership .   This Lease shall not be construed to make Landlord a partner or joint venturer of Tenant, the relationship between Landlord and Tenant with respect to this Lease being solely that of landlord and tenant.

 

21.6          Choice of Law and Venue .   This Lease and its performance shall be governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma , without regard to any conflicts of laws of choice of law provisions thereof. The parties agree that any court action relating to this Lease shall be instituted and prosecuted only in a court of competent jurisdiction in Oklahoma County, Oklahoma , and each party waives its rights, if any, to institute or prosecute suit in any other forum than Oklahoma County, Oklahoma .

 

21.7          Notices .   All notices demands and communications of any kind to be given to either party hereunder must be given in writing at the appropriate address indicated herein, and must be given only by one of the following methods: (i) personal delivery, (ii) depositing the same in the United States mail, postage prepaid, certified, return receipt requested, or (iii) reputable air courier service which provides written evidence of delivery. Any notice required to be given under this Lease shall, on the front of each envelope in upper case letters, in a black bolded font of a size not less than 10-point type, state words that indicate the type of notice enclosed and its urgency. For example, if a party is notifying the other party of a default under this Lease, the party giving such notice shall type the words: “URGENT: NOTICE OF DEFAULT”.

 

The parties may from time to time change the location for notices by giving written notice to the location then in effect for giving written notices under this Lease.

 

21.8          Construction .   The parties agree that each party has reviewed this Lease and has had the opportunity to have counsel review the same, and that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply in the interpretation of this Lease or any amendments or any exhibits hereto. Wherever appropriate in this Lease, personal pronouns shall be deemed to include the other genders and the singular to include the plural.

 

21.9          Attorneys’ Fees .   Tenant shall pay to Landlord all amounts for all costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by Landlord in connection with any breach, Default or Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease or incurred in order to enforce the terms or provisions of this Lease. Landlord shall pay to Tenant all amounts for all costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by Tenant in connection with any breach or default by Landlord under this Lease or incurred in order to enforce the terms or provisions of this Lease. If any action is commenced to recover any sum under this Lease, or enforce any right or obligation under this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other reasonable attorneys’ fees, as fixed by the court and not the jury. Such fees may be awarded in the same suit or recovered in a separate suit, whether or not such action or proceeding is pursued to decision or judgment. The term “ Prevailing Party ” shall include, without limitation, a Party who substantially obtains or defeats the relief sought, as the case may be, whether by compromise, settlement, judgment, or the abandonment by the other Party of its claim or defense. The attorneys’ fee award shall not be computed in accordance with any court fee schedule, but shall be such as to fully reimburse all attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred. In addition to the foregoing award of attorneys’ fees to the Prevailing Party, the Prevailing Party shall be entitled to its attorneys’ fees incurred in any post-judgment proceedings to collect or enforce the judgment. This provision is separate and several and shall survive the merger of this Lease into any judgment on this Lease. Landlord shall be entitled to attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred in the preparation and service of notices of Default and consultations in connection therewith, whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced in connection with such Default or resulting Event of Default.

 

  23  

 

 

21.10       Waiver .   No obligation, term, covenant, condition or agreement in this Lease (collectively, “ Obligation ”) shall be deemed waived by Landlord unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Landlord. No waiver of an Obligation by Landlord will imply or constitute further waiver of that or any other Obligation. The failure of Landlord to: (i) seek redress for a breach of or default in, or (ii) insist upon the strict performance of, any Obligation or of any of the rules and regulations set forth herein or hereinafter adopted by Landlord shall not be deemed a waiver of any rights or remedies Landlord may have, and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach of, or default in, such Obligation or such rules and regulations.

 

(a)           No Acceptance of Surrender .   No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord’s agents during the term of this Lease will be deemed an acceptance of surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept a surrender will be valid unless in writing, signed by Landlord. The delivery of Tenant’s keys to any employee or agent of Landlord will not constitute a termination of this Lease unless Landlord has entered into a written agreement to that effect.

 

(b)           No Waiver of Payment .   No payment by Tenant, nor receipt by Landlord, of a lesser amount than the Rent or other charges stipulated in this Lease will be deemed to be anything other than a payment on account of the earliest stipulated Rent. No endorsement or statement on any check, or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent, will be deemed an accord and satisfaction. Landlord will accept the check for payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or to pursue any other remedy available to Landlord.

 

(c)           No Consent to Sublet or Assignment .   If this Lease is assigned, or if the Premises or any part of the Premises are sublet or occupied by anyone other than Tenant or the Subtenant under the OCOM Sublease, any collection by Landlord of Rent from the assignee, subtenant or occupant will not be deemed a waiver of the covenant of this Lease against assignment and subletting, or the acceptance of the assignee, subtenant, or occupant as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the complete performance by Tenant of its covenants in this Lease.

 

(d)           Performance Under Protest .   If at any time a dispute shall arise as to any amount or sum of money to be paid by one Party to the other under the provisions hereof, the Party against whom the obligation to pay the money is asserted shall have the right to make payment “under protest” and such payment shall not be regarded as a voluntary payment and there shall survive the right on the part of said Party to institute suit for recovery of such sum. If it shall be adjudged that there was no legal obligation on the part of said Party to pay such sum or any part thereof, said Party shall be entitled to recover such sum or so much thereof as it was not legally required to pay under the provisions of this Lease.

 

21.11       Integration; Amendments .   This Lease and any exhibits attached or to be attached hereto set forth the entire agreement between Landlord and Tenant concerning the Premises. Except as otherwise provided herein, no subsequent amendment to this Lease shall be binding unless reduced to writing and signed by the parties. If a provision of an addendum and the Lease are in conflict, the provision of the addendum shall govern.

 

21.12       Severability .   If any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Lease is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be otherwise affected, impaired or invalidated.

 

21.13       Brokerage .   Tenant represents and warrants that it has dealt only with the broker(s) identified in Article I of this Lease and/or with Landlord and its direct employees, and no other broker or agent in connection with the negotiation or execution of this Lease. Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all damages, losses, liabilities, costs, or expenses including without limitation all attorneys’ fees and disbursements incurred by reason of any claim of a liability to any other broker or other person for commissions or other compensation or charges with respect to the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Lease. Landlord will pay Landlord’s broker a commission in connection with this Lease pursuant to separate agreement between Landlord and Landlord’s broker.

 

  24  

 

 

21.14       Force Majeure .   If either party hereto shall be delayed or prevented from the performance of any act required hereunder by reasons of acts of God, strikes, lockouts, labor troubles, civil disorder, inability to procure materials, restrictive governmental laws, regulations, or other cause without fault and beyond the control of the party obligated, performance of such acts shall be excused for the period of delay and then for a period of time reasonably necessary to perform the act; provided, however , nothing in this Section 21.14 shall excuse Tenant from the prompt payment of any rental or other charge required of Tenant hereunder, except as may be expressly provided elsewhere in this Lease.

 

21.15        Holding Over .   Tenant has no right to retain possession of the Premises or any part thereof beyond the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease.

This Lease shall terminate on the Expiration Date except with respect to obligations and liabilities of Landlord or Tenant hereunder, actual or contingent, which have arisen on or prior to the Expiration Date. On the Expiration Date, subject to the rights of the Subtenant under the OCOM Sublease, which shall continue in effect as a direct lease between Landlord and the Subtenant, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in the condition in which the Premises were originally received from Landlord, except for ordinary wear and tear (and subject to Casualty or Condemnation as provided in Articles XIV and XVI of this Lease), together with all alterations, improvements or additions made during the Term pursuant to the terms of this Lease or the OCOM Sublease. This Lease shall terminate on the Expiration Date without the necessity of any notice from either Landlord or Tenant to terminate the same, and Tenant hereby waives any right of notice to vacate the Premises by Landlord, and agrees that Landlord shall be entitled to the benefit of all provisions of law respecting the summary recovery of possession of the Premises from Tenant in the event Tenant holds over to the same extent as if notice had been given. In addition, Tenant shall defend and reimburse Landlord for all losses, liabilities, claims, costs, expenses, damages and attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord based on Tenant not vacating the Premises by the Expiration Date.

 

21.16       No Recordation .   Landlord and Tenant hereby and expressly agree that neither this Lease nor any memorandum hereof shall be recorded in any public office; however, a financing statement and any similar instrument or document evidencing and perfecting the security interest granted to Landlord hereunder may be properly recorded and filed in accordance with the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code.

 

21.17       Time is of the Essence .   Time is of the essence of this Lease and of every term, covenant, condition and obligation hereof.

 

21.18       Waiver of Jury Trial .   Landlord and Tenant hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the right to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation based hereon, arising out of, under or in connection with this Lease or any documents contemplated to be executed in connection herewith or any course of conduct, course of dealings, statements (whether oral or written) or actions of either party arising out of or related in any manner to the Premises (including, without limitation, any action to rescind or cancel this Lease or any claims or defenses asserting that this Lease was fraudulently induced or is otherwise void or voidable). This waiver is a material inducement for Landlord to enter into and accept this Lease.

 

  25  

 

 

21.19       Authorization .   If Tenant executes this Lease as a partnership, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of the partnership represents and warrants that he or she is a general partner of the partnership and that this Lease is binding upon the partnership in accordance with its terms.

21.21       Counterparts .   This Lease may be executed in as many counterparts as may be deemed necessary and convenient, and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument. A party’s signature on this Lease or any amendment hereto may be provided by facsimile and shall be effective upon transmission to the other party hereto.

 

21.22       Tenant’s Representations and Warranties .   Tenant hereby represents, warrants and agrees that: (1) there exists no breach, default or event of default by Landlord under the Lease, or any event or condition which, with notice or passage of time or both, would constitute a breach, default or event of default by Landlord under the Lease; (2) the Lease continues to be a legal, valid and binding agreement and obligation of Tenant; and (3) Tenant has no current offset or defense to Tenant’s performance or obligations under the Lease.

 

21.23       Multiple Parties .   Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if more than one person or entity is named herein as either Landlord or Tenant, the obligations of such multiple parties shall be the joint and several responsibility of all persons or entities named herein as such Landlord or Tenant.

21.26       Assignment of Rents .   If any part of the Premises is at any time subject to a first mortgage or a first deed of trust, and this Lease or the rentals due from Tenant hereunder are assigned by Landlord to a mortgagee, trustee or beneficiary (“ Assignee ” for purposes of this Section 21.26 only) and Tenant is given written notice of the assignment including the post office address of Assignee, then Tenant shall give written notice of any default by Landlord to Assignee at the same time it gives such notice to Landlord, specifying the default in reasonable detail and affording Assignee a reasonable opportunity to make performance for and on behalf of Landlord. If and when Assignee has made performance on behalf of Landlord, the default shall be deemed cured.

21.30       Waiver of Right of Redemption .   Tenant waives any and all rights of redemption granted under any present and future laws in the event Landlord obtains the right to possession of the Premises by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants and conditions of this Lease or otherwise.

GLOBAL MEDICAL REIT Inc. PROVIDES acquisition update

 

Company Announces Two Completed Acquisitions and Five Executed Purchase Contracts for an Aggregate of $103.5 million

 

BETHESDA, MD – February 1, 2017 – Global Medical REIT Inc. (NYSE:GMRE) (the “Company” or “GMR”), a Maryland corporation engaged primarily in the acquisition of licensed, state-of-the-art, purpose-built healthcare facilities and the leasing of these facilities to leading clinical operators with dominant market share, announced today that it closed two acquisitions during the first quarter of 2017 and has executed five purchase contracts, four of which were executed during the first quarter of 2017 and are previously unannounced. In total, the closed acquisitions and purchase contracts encompass nine buildings for an aggregate purchase price of $103,455,000. Of the five purchase contracts discussed herein, the December 30, 2016 purchase contract for the Great Bend Regional Hospital (“GBRH”) was previously announced on January 4, 2017. Upon the successful closings of the acquisitions under purchase contract, GMR’s gross investment in real estate will be approximately $310 million.

 

The closed acquisitions, discussed further below, include the Geisinger imaging center and clinic in central Pennsylvania (“Geisinger”) and the Southwest Florida Neurological & Rehabilitation Associates (“SWFNA”) building in Cape Coral, Florida. The five purchase contracts, also discussed further below, are for the purchase of a portfolio of three properties occupied by the Oklahoma Center for Orthopedic & Multi-Specialty Surgery (“OCOM”) in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Las Cruces Orthopedic Associates (“LCOA”) in Las Cruces, New Mexico; Thumb Butte Medical Center, a two-story clinic in Prescott, Arizona (“Prescott”); and the South Lake Heart & Vascular Institute in Clermont, Florida (“SLHVI”), and GBRH.

Geisinger Lewisburg PA $7,300,000 28,480 7.30%
SWFNA Cape Coral FL $7,250,000 25,814 7.33%

1 Cap rates calculated based on current lease terms and do not give effect to future rent escalations.

 

 

  

David Young, GMR’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “I am happy to announce these acquisitions, which will add more than 258,000 square feet to our property portfolio once the acquisitions under purchase contract are closed, which we expect will occur in the first quarter. Following the expected closings, our gross investment portfolio will exceed $310 million, encompassing approximately 924,000 square feet of leasable space. With two months still remaining in the first quarter, this gives us great momentum as we push toward covering our dividend.”

 

Mr. Young continued, “I would also like to highlight the diversity of these acquisitions, from a geographic perspective along with the type of markets they serve. As we state at the outset of all of our announcements, we focus on the acquisition of properties that are leased to leading clinical operators with dominant market share. In building our portfolio, we have shown that these acquisition parameters apply in a wide variety of areas. In some cases, where markets are highly competitive, we may choose to add properties, such as “OCOM”, with relatively lower cap rates than our overall corporate average when it serves our broader strategy. At the same time, we have been able to balance our overall portfolio with higher than average cap rate deals in less competitive areas, such as our recently-announced “Great Bend” acquisition, which carries a cap rate of 8.75%. We believe our strategy results in a well-diversified property portfolio which best positions us to build value for our shareholders over the long term.”

 

Geisinger – Lewisburg, PA

 

On January 12, 2017 GMR closed the acquisition of a 28,480 square-foot clinic and imaging center, which is occupied by two affiliates of the Geisinger Health System.

Upon closing of the acquisition of OCOM South, GMR will assume the existing triple-net lease agreement, pursuant to which OCOM South is leased from Cruse-Two L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company, to OCOM with a remaining initial lease term expiring September 1, 2033, subject to three consecutive five-year renewal options by the tenant. Upon closing of the acquisition of OCOM North, GMR will assume the existing triple-net lease agreement, pursuant to which OCOM North is leased from Cruse-Six, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company, as landlord to OCOM, as tenant, with a remaining initial lease term expiring on July 31, 2022, subject to two consecutive five (5)-year renewal options by the tenant.
