The Agreement requires Agency review of all leases. Funding Source: Redevelopment Tax Increment Recommended Action: Motion to: Approve as to form the attached lease between Clearview Capital Corp. and Abdelmuti Development Company for office space within the Oceanview Promenade. Altemative Action(s): Do not approve the lease. ..�N 0 REQUEST FOR REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ACTION MEETING DATE: May 5, 1997 • DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: ED 97-12 Analysis: On May 28, 1991, the Redevelopment Agency entered into an Owner Participation Agreement (OPA) with Abdelmuti Development Company for the development of a three story, 42,000 square foot mixed use development which was subsequently amended in November 1991, approving a fourth story and a 'Guaranteed Rental Rate' for a portion of the office space. The Agency's obligation is based on the rent collected from office space on the second floor and one-half of the third floor, approximately 20,600 square feet in total. If actual rents are less than the guaranteed rate, the Agency pays the difference. The attached lease represents the last remaining vacant space in that portion of the building subsidized by the Agency. Because this space has been vacant since construction, approval of this lease will create new revenue ($3,148/mo. or $37,775/yr.) towards the Guaranteed Rent and reduce the Agency's payments by a concomitant amount.. Clearview Capital Corp. is a current tenant in Oceanview Promenade and this lease represents its second expansion on site. The lease is identical to those previously approved by the Agency and its important to note that the Agency's approval is solely `as to form.' The Agency is not a party to the lease.

If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree upon the fair market rental value of the Premises within sixty (60) days after Landlord's receipt of Tenant's notice exercising the option contained herein, Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint a "Qualified Arbitrator" (as defined below) within seven (7) days after the expiration of the aforementioned sixty (60) day period. Such arbitrator shall confer and select a third Qualified Arbitrator (the "Neutral Arbitrator"), who alone shall determine the fair market rental value of the Premises.

RENT AND SECURITY DEPOSIT r SECTION 3.1 BASIC ANNUAL RENT. i• (a) Tenant shall pay the basic annual rent for the Premises in the total amount, but payable in the equal monthly installments, shown in Item 5 of the Basic Lease Provisions, due and payable on the first day of each month in advance, commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing throughout the term of this Lease, except that if the Commencement Date occurs on a day othe+ than the first day of a month, then the rent payable hereunder. shall be prorated on a daily basis and the rent for the partial month following the Commencement Date shall be payable on the first day of the term of this Lease. No demand, notice or invoice shall be required. Tenant shall receive a credit against the first installment or installments of minimum rental payable under this Section 3.1 in an amount equal to the prepaid rent specified in Item 9 of the Basic Lease Provisions. All rents and other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease shall be paid to Landlord, without offset or deduction, in lawful money of the United States of America at the address for Landlord shown in Item 11 of the Basic Lease Provisions, or to such other person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing. (b) As used herein "Lease Year" shall be a period of twelve (12) consecutive months commencing on the first full calendar month during the lease term; provided that the first Lease Year shall also include any partial calendar month following the Commencement Date. (c) Intentionally omitted. (d) The basic annual rent is calculated on the basis of the product of the rentable square feet of the Premises shown in Item 2 of the Basic Lease Provisions, multiplied by ONE AND_45/100THS DOLLARS ($1.45). Following delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant and from time to time thereafter, at Landlord's option, Landlord shall cause Landlord's architect to determine the actual rentable square feet of the Premises, which determination shall be binding upon Tenant. Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord the amount of any deficiencies in basic annual rent and all other additional rent determined by the rentable square feet of the Premises if the actual rentable square feet is greater.!than set forth in Item 2 of the Basic Lease Provisions. Landlord shall credit basic annual rent and additional rent next payable by Tenant if the actual -rentable square feet is less than set forth in Item 2 of the Basic Lease provisions. The foregoing adjustments shall be effective as of the Commencement Date. (e) In the event that at any time during the term of this Lease, any governmental law, rule or regulation prohibits or postpones in whole or in part any increase in the rent or in the payment of other sums payable by Tenant hereunder to be made pursuant to this Lease, then, and in either of such events, such increase or payment shall be made to the maximum extent permissible by law at the time provided in this Lease, and/or at any time or times thereafter such increase or payment, or any portion thereof, may lawfully be made and any such increase in rent, or any portion thereof, or other sums payable hereunder, or portions thereof, the payment of which has been so prohibited or postponed, shall thereafter become due and payable to the maximum extent and at the earliest time or times permitted by law. SECTION 3.2 SECURITY DEPOSIT. Tenant has deposited with Landlord the sum stated in Item 8 of the Basic Lease Provisions, to be held by Landlord as security for the full and 'faithful performance of every Lease provision to be performed by Tenant. If 267101482M00113050557.2 .04101197 - 5 - Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the provisions relating to the payment of rent, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part of this security deposit for the payment of any rent or other sum in default, or for the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant's default or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's default to the full extent permitted by law. If any portion of said deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, within five (5) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the security deposit to its original amount. Landlord shall not be required to keep this security deposit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such deposit. If Tenant shall per- form every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the security deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned -to Tenant (or, at Landlord's option, to the last assignee ofTenant's interest hereunder) within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Lease term, provided that Landlord may retain the security deposit until such time as any amount due from Tenant in cccordance with any provision hereof has been determined and paid, in full. Each time the basic annual rent is increased under Sections 3.1(c) and/or 3.1(d) above, Tenant shall deposit additional finds with Landlord sufficient to increase the security deposit to,.an amount which bears the same relationship to the adjusted basic annual rent as the initial security deposit bore to the initial basic annual rent. SECTION 3.3 OPERATIM9 EXPENSES. (a) In addition to paying basic annual rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord in installments, as provided in (b) below, the amount by which Tenant's proportionate share of all "Operating Expenses" (as hereafter defined) incurred by Landlord in the operation of the Building, (including the Building's percentage of Operating Expenses for the Project) exceeds Tenant's proportionate share of the Operating Expenses incurred during the Base Year specified in Item 6 of the Basic Lease Provisions ("Increase Operating Costs"). Such payments shall be deemed additional rent. Tenant's obligation to pay its proportionate share of Increased Operating Costs shall commence as of the beginning of the first full calendar year following the Base Year. Tenant's proportionate share shall be computed by dividing the "rentable area" of the Premises identified in Item 2 of the Basic Lease Provisions by the total "rentable area" of the Building. The term "rentable area" as used herein with respect to the Premises, the Building and any other, building within the Project (exclusive of parking structures) shall be computed by measuring from the inside surface of the permanent outer building walls. As long as the Building shall be comprised of retail and office uses, Landlord may in its reasonable discretion, segregate the retail rentable area from the office rentable area and Tenant shall pay its proportionate share on such rentable area as reasonably allocated and segregated by Landlord. Specifically included within the definition of rentable area shall be all area within the outside walls, air conditioning shafts and ducts where a central air conditioning system eliminates floor fan rooms, private stairs, private elevators, toilets, air conditioning rooms, fan rooms, air ducts, janitor's closets, slop sinks, electrical closets, telephone closets, and all ;enclosing walls for the above items, all of which exclusively serve the floor in which they are located, and columns and projections necessary to the Building. The area of air conditioning and fan rooms located on a rental floor serving more than the one floor in which located, together with their enclosing walls, shall be apportioned and included as rentable area of the floors which they serve. Except as provided above, there shall be excluded from rentable area building stairs, fire towers, elevator shafts, flues, vents, stacks, pipe shafts and vertical ducts, with their enclosing walls serving more than one floor, lobby, public vestibules, public 2571414824000IMM557.2 *Wffif47 -6- telephone boots, ramps, loading docks and other public areas on the first floor of the building. Rentable area for divided floors shall include a proportionate share of public corridors, public toilets, air conditioning rooms, fan rooms, air ducts, janitor's closets, electrical closets, telephone equipment closets and their enclosing walls. Prior to the Commencement Date, and from time to time thereafter, at Landlord's option, Landlord's architect shall determine and certify in writing to Tenant and Landlord the actual rentable area of the Building and other buildings in the Project, which determination and certification shall be binding upon Tenant. (b) Prior to the start of each calendar year of the lease term following the calendar year during which this Lease is executed, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a written estimate of the Operating Expenses and Tenant's proportionate share of the Increased Operating Costs for the next calendar year or portion thereof. In addition to Tenant's basic annual rent payments, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount by which its proportionate share of Operating Expenses exceeds Tenant's proportionate share of the Operating Expenses incurred during the Base Year identified in Item 6 of the Basic Lease Provisions in equal monthly installments, in advance, together with the monthly installments of basic annual rent. within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each calendar year, including the calendar year during which the lease term commences, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a .statement showing in reasonable detail the actual Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord during the previous year and Tenant's proportionate share thereof. The parties shall adjust Tenant's ,estimated payment, if any, to Tenant's actual proportionate share a6 shown by such annual statement. Any amount due Tenant shall be credited against installments next coming due under this Section 3.3, and any deficiency shall be paid by Tenant in the next such installment. Tenant agrees to accept as final and determinative the amounts shown in such statement and hereby waives all claims arising from such statement, except those for which a claim is made by Tenant within six (6) months after Landlord has furnished such statement to Tenant. Not more than once in any calendar year, upon at least twenty (20) days prior written notice, Tenant may inspect Landlord's books and records with respect to Operating Expenses provided such inspection is promptly accomplished and does not unreasonably interfere with the operation of Landlord's business. Should there be any dispute with respect to either the Landlord's written estimate of Tenant's share of Operating Expenses or the year end statement showing actual Operating Expenses, Tenant shall nevertheless pay its proportionate share of such expenses but may contest the accuracy thereof in accordance with the terms set forth above, and any failure to so pay shall constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease. (c) Even though the Lease term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant's Increased Operating Costs for the year in which the Lease terminates, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord the amount by which such Increased Operating Costs exceeds the estimated payments made by Tenant under (b) above. Any overpayment made toward Tenant's Increased Operating Costs shall be promptly rebated by Landlord to Tenant. Tenant's payment of Increased Operating Costs shall be prorated for any partial calendar year on a per diem basis in any reasonable manner selected by Landlord.

In any action for unlawful detainer commenced by Landlord against Tenant by reason of any default hereunder, the reasonable rental value of the Premises for the period of the unlawful detainer shall be deemed to be the amount of the basic annual rent and additional rent reserved in this Lease for such period, unless Landlord or Tenant shall prove to the contrary by competent evidence. The various rights, powers and remedies reserved to Landlord herein, and those rights, powers and remedies of Landlord under any other agreement now or hereafter in force between Landlord and Tenant, including those not specifically described herein, shall be cumulative, and, except as -otherwise provided by California statutory law in effect at the time, Landlord may pursue any or all of such rights and remedies, at the same time,.or otherwise. (c) No delay or omission of Landlord to exercise any right or remedy shall be construed as a waiver of any such right,or remedy or of any default by Tenant hereunder.

No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord's agents during the term of this Lease shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept a surrender shall be valid unless in writing and signed by Landlord. No employee of Landlord or of Landlord's agents shall have any power to accept the keys to the Premises prior to the termination of this Lease, and the delivery of the keys to any such employee shall not operate a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises. SECTION 13.3 INTEREST ON -TENANT'S OBLIGATIONS: LAT PAYMENTS. (a) Any installment of rent due under this Lease or any other sum not paid to Landlord when due (other than interest) shall bear interest at the maximum rate allowed by law from the date such payment is due until paid, provided, however, that the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure the default. (b) Tenant hereby acknowledges that the 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 may include, but are not limited to, administrative, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the premises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord's designee within five (5) days after the date due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the interest; provided above, a late charge in the amount of five percent (5fl of the delinquent installment of rent. The parties agree that•.such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of such late charge by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. (c) Following each second consecutive late payments of rent, Landlord shall have the option (i) to require that beginning with the first payment of rent next due, rent shall no longer be paid in monthly installments but shall be payable quarterly three (3) months in advance and/or (ii) to require that Tenant increase the amount, if any, of the security deposit required under Section 3.2 as listed in Item 9 of the Basic Lease Provisions by one hundred percent (100%-), which additional security deposit shall be retained by Landlord, and may be applied by Landlord, in the manner provided in Section 3.2.

Any payment or performance of any act or the provision of any such insurance by Landlord on Tenant's behalf shall not give rise to any responsibility of Landlord to continue making the same Lq� similar payments or performing the same or similar acts. All costs, expenses and other sums incurred or paid by Landlord in connection 1� 2671014320.000113050557.2 a04101M - 2 5 k./ therewith, together with interest at the maximum rate permitted by law from the date incurred or paid by Landlord shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder and shall be paid by Tenant with and at the same time as the next monthly installment of basic annual rent hereunder, and any default therein shall constitute a breach of the covenants and conditions of this Lease. t SECTION 13.5 DEFAULT BY LANDLORD.

If, after notice to Landlord of default, Landlord fails to cure such default as provided herein, then Tenant shall have the right to cure such default at Landlord's expense. Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease or to withhold, reduce or offset any amount against any payments of basic annual rent or any other charges due and payable hereunder, and Tenant's remedy shall be limited to damages and/or an injunction. It is expressly understood and agreed to that any money judgment resulting from any default or other claim arising under this Lease shall be satisfied only out of the rents, issues, profits or other income ("Income") actually received from the operation of the Building and no other real, personal or mixed property of Landlord (the term "Landlord" for purposes of this Section only shall mean any and all partners, both general and/or limited, if any, which comprise Landlord), wherever situated, shall be subject to levy on any such judgment obtained against Landlord and whether or not such Income is sufficient for the payment of such judgment, Tenant will not institute any further action, suit, claim or demand, in law or in equity, against Landlord for or on the account of such deficiency. Tenant hereby waives, to the extent waivable under law, any right to satisfy said money judgment against Landlord except from Income received by Landlord for the operation of the Building. ,t SECTION 13.6 EXPENSES AND LEGAL FEES.
