Parking Clause

Section 9.01. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing within 180 days after the Commencement Date of the number of parking spaces (up to a maximum of 125, subject to increase as provided in Article 47) that Tenant wishes to hire from Landlord (the "Tenant's Parking Spaces"). Landlord shall make the Tenant's Parking Spaces available to Tenant and Tenant shall hire same from Landlord, in such areas (the "Parking Areas") on the Property as Landlord shall periodically designate for parking.

Commencement Date:

Number of Parking Spaces Requested:

Landlord makes no representations or guarantees whatsoever as to the specific location of Tenant's Parking Spaces or whether Tenant's Parking Spaces will be under cover or open. Tenant's Parking Spaces shall be used exclusively for the parking of standard size passenger cars (or smaller cars), belonging to or leased to or operated by Tenant, any of Tenant's permitted subtenants, and their respective employees, visitors and invitees, and for no other purpose.

Tenant shall not allow any parking of any cars of Tenant or Tenant's permitted subtenants, or their employees, visitors or invitees, outside of the Parking Areas or in parking spaces within the Property designated for use by Landlord or other tenants or their respective employees, visitors or invitees.

Landlord reserves the right to relocate or alter Tenant's Parking Spaces within the Parking Areas if, in Landlord's sole judgment, it becomes desirable to do so during the Term.

License Numbers of Cars Operated by Tenant and Permitted Subtenants:

Tenant shall upon request promptly furnish to Landlord the license numbers of the cars operated by Tenant and Tenant's permitted subtenants and their employees and contractors.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.01, from time to time throughout the Term, but not more often than once in any 3 month period, Tenant shall have the right by written notice to Landlord to terminate its hiring of any number of Tenant's Parking Spaces.

If Tenant shall terminate its hiring of any of Tenant's Parking Spaces pursuant to the preceding sentence, Tenant shall not have any further right to rehire such Tenant's Parking Spaces from Landlord.

Section 9.02. All parking spaces used by Tenant, its employees, visitors and invitees will be used at their own risk, and Landlord shall not be liable for any injury to person or property, or for loss or damage to any automobile or its contents, resulting from theft, collision, vandalism or any other cause whatsoever, unless such injury or loss is caused by the negligence or willful act of Landlord.

Section 9.03. Landlord shall have the right to license an independent operator or conduct a parking operation open to the public with respect to the Parking Areas or to conduct such operation itself.

Section 9.04. Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly, as Additional Rent, on the first day of each month, without any set-off or deduction whatsoever, or in lieu thereof, to any parking operator who shall be licensed by Landlord to conduct a parking operation with respect to the Parking Areas, the amount obtained by multiplying the number of Tenant's Parking Spaces reserved in any given month by the monthly rate (the "Parking Rate") then charged by Landlord or such operator to the general public for an equivalent space for such month; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right to notify Landlord that any number of Tenant's Parking Spaces have been reserved for Tenant's employees, in which case each such individual employee shall contract directly with Landlord or such parking operator for the payment of the Parking Rate.

Monthly Parking Rate:

Spaces Reserved for Employees:

Notwithstanding the foregoing proviso, in the event that any such employee fails to pay any of its parking fees then, upon five (5) Business Days notice from Landlord (time being of the essence), Tenant shall have a right to redeem the balances owing for such space(s) before any such space(s) are terminated by Landlord.

If Tenant fails to so redeem such space(s), then:

Landlord may terminate Tenant's (and such employee(s)') rights to such space(s).

Tenant shall have no further right to rehire such Tenant's Parking Spaces from Landlord.

Tenant shall pay Landlord, as Additional Rent, the parking fees applicable to such terminated space(s) for such 5-Business Day period.

If any of Tenant's Parking Spaces shall be first made available to Tenant other than on the first day of a month, then Tenant shall make the payments in respect of such Spaces for such month on the date same are so made available appropriately prorated.

Section 9.05. Landlord, or the parking lot operator, as the case may be, shall have the right to tow, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, any of Tenant's or Tenant's permitted subtenants', or their employees', visitors' or invitees' cars that are parked outside of Tenant's Parking Spaces to the extent specific spaces are reserved for tenants.

Section 9.06. Landlord shall have the right to require that all cars to be parked in Tenant's Parking Spaces shall exhibit such identification as Landlord may from time to time deem reasonably necessary to control the use of the Parking Areas.

Required Identification Type:

Landlord shall have the right to tow, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, any of Tenant's or Tenant's permitted subtenants', their visitors' or invitees' cars not exhibiting such identification if required. Landlord shall have the right to tow any of Tenant's employees' cars not exhibiting such identification if required, and the cost of such towing shall be borne by any such employee of Tenant.

Section 9.07. Landlord shall have the right to institute valet parking, as a Building service or a service of the parking operator, in which event Tenant shall comply with all rules promulgated by Landlord or such parking operator relating thereto.
