CHICAGO PIZZA & BREWERY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Chicago Pizza &
Brewery, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 and 1997 have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and
Item 310 (b) of Regulation S-B. These financial statements have not been
audited by independent accountants, but include all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring adjustments) which are, in Management's opinion, necessary
for a fair presentation of the financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows for such periods. However, these results are not necessarily
indicative of results for any other interim period or for the full year.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been omitted pursuant to requirements of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC). A description of the Company's accounting policies
and other financial information is included in the audited consolidated
financial statements as filed with the SEC on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 1997. Management believes that the disclosures included in the
accompanying interim financial statements and footnotes are adequate to make
the information not misleading, but should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Form
10-KSB. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1997
has been derived from the audited financial statements.
2. ORGANIZATION:
The accompanying financial statements of the Company for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 are presented on a consolidated basis, and
include the accounts of the Company, Chicago Pizza Northwest, Inc. and BJ's
Lahaina, L.P. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated.
On March 29, 1996, the Company acquired 26 restaurants located in Oregon
and Washington by providing the funding for the Debtor's (Pietro's Corp.) Plan
of Reorganization. The Company funded the Debtor's Plan of Reorganization on
March 29, 1996, and thereby acquired all the stock in the reorganized entity
known as Chicago Pizza Northwest, Inc. On May 15, 1996, the Company agreed to
sell seven of the restaurants purchased from Pietro's Holdings. Two of the
restaurants were sold on May 31, 1996, two additional restaurants were sold on
June 24, 1996 and three additional restaurants were sold on June 26, 1996. On
June 1, 1997, an additional restaurant acquired from Pietro's Holdings was
sold to an independent operator. This restaurant, located in North Bend,
Oregon did not figure significantly in the Company's future plans and would
have required a commitment by the Company to a long-term lease extension.
On February 19, 1997, the Pietro's restaurant located in Aloha, Oregon
was heavily damaged by fire. The Company maintained insurance for such an
event and intends to refurbish the restaurant and resume operations at this
location. The Company received $260,691 during the second quarter of 1997 from
its insurance carrier for this loss and is presently negotiating with the
carrier any additional amount that may be due for the loss or damage of this
property covered by its replacement cost policy. It is possible the Company
will recognize a gain on the involuntary loss of its property when the final
settlement amount is determined. A business interruption insurance policy will
substantially offset the loss of business during the rebuilding period.

<PAGE>
3. INTANGIBLE ASSETS:
The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of goodwill
including the related amortization periods. The Company determines whether
there has been impairment by comparing the anticipated undiscounted future
cash flows from operations of the acquired restaurants with the carrying value
of the goodwill.
4. PER SHARE INFORMATION:
SFAS 128, "Earnings Per Share", was adopted in the fourth quarter of 1997
and supersedes previous standards for computing net income per share under
Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 15. The new standard requires
dual presentation of basic net income per common share and net income per
common share assuming dilution on the face of the income statement. Basic net
income per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common
stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. Dilutive net income per share is equal to basic net income
per share as both stock options and warrants are antidilutive for the periods
presented.
5. INCOME TAXES:
As of December 31, 1997, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards
for federal and state purposes of approximately $4,225,000 and $2,194,000,
respectively. The utilization of net operating loss and credit carryforwards
may be limited under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code Section 382
and similar state provisions due to the initial public offering in 1996. The
Company has not previously generated taxable income, and there is no
opportunity to carryback losses to prior periods. The Company therefore has
not recognized a net deferred tax asset as of March 31, 1998.
6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:
On April 30,1998 the Company's lease for its delivery-only Pietro's
restaurant on Woodstock Road in Portland, Oregon expired. Due to its
delivery-only suitability, this location was not included in the Company's
plans for conversions to the BJ's format, and the Company did not pursue a
lease extension. A portion of the equipment at this location was sold to an
independent operator; additional restaurant equipment was removed and will be
used in future conversions to the BJ's restaurant format.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Company's financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in
this Form 10-QSB. Except for the historical information contained herein, the
discussion in this Form 10-QSB contains certain forward looking statements
that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of the Company's
plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. The cautionary statements made
in this Form 10-QSB should be read as being applicable to all related
forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this Form 10-QSB. The
Company's actual results could differ materially from those discussed here.
Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, without
limitation, those factors discussed herein and in the Company's prospectus
dated October 8, 1996 (the "Prospectus"), including, without limitation: (i)
the Company's ability to manage growth and conversions, (ii) construction
delays, (iii) marketing and other limitations as a result of the Company's
historic concentration in Southern California and current concentration in the
Northwest, (iv) restaurant and brewery industry competition, (v) impact of
certain brewery business considerations, including without limitation,
dependence upon suppliers and related hazards, (vi) increase in food costs and
wages, including without limitation the recent increase in minimum wage, (vii)
consumer trends,

<PAGE>
(viii) potential uninsured losses and liabilities, (ix) trademark and
servicemark risks, and (x) other general economic and regulatory conditions
and requirements.
GENERAL
The Company developed a restaurant and microbrewery in Boulder, Colorado
in February 1997 and converted five of the Pietro's restaurants to the BJ's
restaurant and/or brewery concept during April through December 1997. Two
additional Pietro's restaurants were converted to the BJ's restaurant concept
in the first quarter of 1998. Consequently, the results of operations for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily comparable to the
results of operations for the same period in 1997.
The Company's revenues are derived primarily from food and beverage sales
at its restaurants. The Company's expenses consist primarily of food and
beverage costs, labor costs (consisting of wages and benefits), operating
expenses (consisting of marketing costs, repairs and maintenance, supplies,
utilities and other operating expenses), occupancy costs, general and
administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization expenses.
Certain pre-opening costs, including direct and incremental costs
associated with the opening of a new or converted restaurant, are amortized
over a period of one year from the opening date of such restaurant. These
costs include primarily those incurred to train a new restaurant management
team, food, beverage and supply costs incurred to test all equipment and
systems, and any rent or operating expenses incurred prior to opening.
Construction costs, including leasehold capital improvements are amortized
over the remaining useful life of the related asset, or, for leasehold
improvements, over the initial term, if less.
Management believes the Company can be profitable through increased sales
relating to its extended menu developed in 1996 and the continuing conversion
and refurbishment of the Northwest restaurants. Management also believes that
profitability may be enhanced by reduced costs associated with Company
produced beer and vendor volume purchasing made possible with the acquisition
of the Northwest Restaurants.
The Company utilizes a calendar year-end for financial reporting
purposes.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three-Month Period Ended March 31, 1998 Compared to Three-Month Period Ended
March 31, 1997.
Revenues Total revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998
increased to $6,888,000 from $5,783,000 for the comparable period in 1997, an
increase of $1,105,000 or 19.1%. The increase is primarily the result of (i)
the opening of a BJ's Pizza, Grill & Brewery in Boulder, Colorado in February
1997, (ii) an increase in same store sales at the BJ's restaurants open both
periods of $430,000 or 15.1%, and (iii) an increase in same store sales at the
restaurants operated as Pietro's during the first quarter of 1997 and
converted and operated as BJ's restaurants for the entire three-month period
ended March 31, 1998 of $664,000 or 95.2%. The increase in revenues resulting
from the above-mentioned factors was partially offset by (i) a decrease in
sales at the restaurants operated as Pietro's for the entire comparable
periods of $56,000 or 3.7% and (ii) the sale of the Pietro's restaurant in
North Bend, Oregon in June 1997 which had revenues of $96,000 for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1997.
Cost of Sales. Cost of food, beverages and paper (cost of sales) for the
restaurants increased to $2,012,000 for the three-month period ended March 31,
1998 from $1,708,000 for the comparable period in 1997, an increase of
$304,000 or 17.8%. However, as a percentage of revenues, cost of sales
decreased to 29.2% during the 1998 period from 29.5% in the 1997 period. The
decrease in cost of sales as a
percentage of revenues was primarily due to efficiencies achieved at the BJ's
restaurants in Southern
6
<PAGE>
California, Hawaii and Colorado. Cost of sales at those restaurants decreased
to 27.3% of sales during the
three-month period ended March 31, 1998 from 28.4% of sales during the
comparable period in 1997. This decrease was partially offset by an increase
in cost of sales at the restaurants in the Northwest which were converted to
the BJ's concept. Management believes the increase in cost of sales at these
restaurants is the result of expected operational inefficiencies experienced
at these newly-opened restaurants.
Labor. Labor costs for the restaurants increased to $2,501,000 for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1998 from $1,955,000 for the comparable
period in 1997, an increase of $546,000 or 27.9%. As a percentage of revenues,
labor costs increased to 36.3% in 1998 period from 33.8% for the comparable
period in 1997. The factors which contributed to the increase in labor costs
as a percentage of revenue were:
The federal, California and Oregon minimum wages increased substantially
between the first quarter 1997 and the first quarter 1998. These increases
resulted in a greater than 9% increase in the wages paid to the Company's
minimum wage employees from the 1997 period to the 1998 period.
Planned increased staffing was effected at the newly converted Pietro's
restaurants in order to provide our guests with the best possible dining
experience despite a relatively inexperienced staff. Management anticipates
that staffing levels at these restaurants will be reduced as they mature.
Occupancy. Occupancy costs increased to $594,000 for the three-month
period ended March 31, 1998 from $576,000 for the comparable period in 1997,
an increase of $18,000 or 3.1%. As a percentage of revenues, occupancy costs
decreased to 8.6% for the three-month period in 1998 from 10.0% for the
comparable period in 1997. The primary reason for the decrease in occupancy
costs relative to revenues was the increase in comparable store sales.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses increased to $872,000 for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1998 from $780,000 for the comparable
period in 1997, an increase of $92,000 or 11.8%. However, as a percentage of
revenues, operating expenses decreased to 12.7% for the three-month period in
1998 from 13.5% for the comparable period in 1997. The primary reason for the
decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of revenue were (i) the
increase in same store sales, and (ii) an increased focus on operating the
restaurants more efficiently as well as the implementation of improved
expense monitoring systems at the BJ's restaurants in Southern California.
Operating expenses included restaurant-level operating costs, the major
components being marketing, repairs and maintenance, supplies and utilities.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
decreased to $593,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 from
$663,000 for the comparable period in 1997, a decrease of $70,000 or 10.6%.
The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to
additional legal and accounting fees incurred during 1997 associated with the
Company's first year of being a public company.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased
to $453,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 from $269,000 for
the comparable period in 1997, an increase of $184,000 or 68.3%. The increase
was primarily due to (i) the amortization of pre-opening costs associated with
the Boulder, Colorado restaurant and the converted Pietro's restaurants and
(ii) the depreciation associated with the renovation costs of the Boulder,
Colorado restaurant and the Pietro's restaurants converted to the BJ's
concept.
Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net of interest income,
increased to $35,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 from
$17,000 for the comparable period in 1997, an increase of
$18,000 or 105.9%. The increase was primarily due to a reduction of interest
income experienced as the Company's invested cash was utilized in the
renovation and conversion of the Pietro's units.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On October 15, 1996 the Company completed its initial public offering
(the "Offering") of 1,800,000 shares of Common Stock and 1,800,000 Redeemable
Warrants pursuant to the Prospectus. On November 26, 1996, the Representative
of the underwriters of the Offering exercised the over-allotment option
pursuant to the Prospectus to purchase 270,000 additional Redeemable Warrants
(the "Over-Allotment Option"). The Offering, including the Over-Allotment
Option resulted in approximately $6,804,000 in net proceeds. The funds have
been and will be used for the continued development of the Northwest
Restaurants, the Boulder, Colorado restaurant, and other sites, if possible,
as well as for the reduction of debt and increased working capital.
Since the completion of the Offering in October of 1996, the Company has
invested in restaurant development and reduced debt. Net cash provided by
operating activities for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1998 and
March 31, 1997 were $463,000 and $221,000, respectively. Capital expenditures
for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1998 and March 31, 1997 were
$630,000 and $794,000, respectively. Total capital expenditures for the
three-month periods ending March 31, 1998 and 1997 were for the acquisition of
restaurant and brewery equipment and leasehold improvements to develop or
convert the acquired restaurants.
Management believes the Company can be profitable through increased sales
relating to its extended menu developed in 1996 and the continuing conversion
and refurbishment of the Northwest restaurants. Management also believes that
profitability may be enhanced by reduced costs associated with Company
produced beer and vendor volume purchasing made possible with the acquisition
of the Northwest Restaurants.
The Company currently intends to utilize cash and cash equivalents
primarily for the conversion and refurbishment of restaurants in the Northwest
and the acquisition of other sites, if possible, as well as for working
capital purposes. Management currently anticipates a total of $2,000,000 in
additional capital expenditure requirements for 1998, which includes
requirements for the Northwest Restaurant conversions and other sites that
Management is currently considering. Management believes that cash and cash
equivalents available at March 31, 1998 and future operating cash flow will be
sufficient for the Company to fund its operations and continue to meet its
business plan through the end of the fiscal year. However, no assurance can be
given that Management can successfully implement such objectives. Further,
there can be no assurance that future events, including problems, delays,
additional expenses and difficulties encountered in expansion and conversion
of restaurants, will not require additional financing, or that such financing
will be available if necessary.
SEASONALITY AND ADVERSE WEATHER
The Company's results of operations have historically been impacted by
seasonality, which directly impacts tourism at the Company's coastal
locations. The summer months (June through August) have traditionally been
higher volume periods than other periods of the year.
IMPACT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1997, the FASB issued two statements - SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income" and SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information", which are effective for the Company in
the current fiscal year. In addition, in February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 132, "Employers Disclosure About Pensions and Other Retirement Benefits"
which will also be
effective for the Company in the current fiscal year. Presently, those
standards have no impact on the
Company's consolidated financial statements.
Consistent with the restaurant industry, the Company defers its
restaurant preopening costs and amortizes them over a twelve-month period
following the opening of the respective restaurant. In April
8
<PAGE>
1998, The American Institute of Certified Public Accounts ("AICPA") issued
Statement of Position
("SOP") 98-5 entitled "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities". The SOP
requires entities to expense as incurred all start-up and preopening costs
that are not otherwise capitalizable as long-lived assets. The SOP is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998, with earlier
adoption encouraged. Restatement of previously issued financial statement
statements is not permitted by the SOP, and entities are not required to
report the pro forma effects of the retroactive application of the new
accounting standard. The Company's adoption of the required new accounting
principle will involve the recognition of the cumulative effect of the change
in accounting principle required by the SOP as a one-time charge against
earnings, net of any related income tax effect, retroactive to the beginning
of the fiscal year of adoption. Total deferred preopening costs were
approximately $354,000 at March 31, 1998.
Other recently issued standards of the FASB are not expected to affect
the Company as conditions to which those standards apply are absent.

b) Subject to paragraph 5.3 relating to Tenant's improvements and
property, Landlord shall proceed as soon as reasonably possible to make such
repairs and alterations to the Premises as are necessary to restore the
remaining Premises to a condition as comparable as reasonably practicable to
that existing at the time of the condemnation. Landlord may, but shall not be
required to, perform alterations prior to the actual taking after the portion
to be taken has been finally determined. Rents shall be abated to the extent
the Premises are untenantable during the period of alteration and repair.
c) After the date on which title vests in the condemning authority or an
earlier date on which alterations are commenced by Owner to restore the
balance of the Premises in anticipation of taking, the rent shall be reduced
in proportion to the reduction in reasonable rental value of the Premises for
Tenant's use caused by the condemnation.
6.2 TOTAL TAKING If a condemning authority condemns or purchases in
lieu of condemnation all of the Premises or a proportion sufficient to render
the remaining Premises unsuitable for the permitted use despite restoration as
provided in paragraph 6.1, the lease shall terminate as of the date that title
vests in the condemning authority or to the date that Tenant surrenders
possession of the Property, whichever is later, and the provisions of Section
l2 covering termination shall apply. Tenant shall be entitled to no
condemnation proceeds attributable to the value of its leasehold interest or
any improvements placed by it upon the Premises. Tenant shall be entitled to
any award made to it from the condemning authority for the removal of its
property so long as such award does not diminish the amount to be received by
Landlord.
SECTION 7. LIABILITY TO THIRD PERSONS; LANDLORD'S LIABILITY TO TENANT
7.1 INDEMNIFICATION OF LANDLORD. Tenant shall indemnify and hold
Landlord harmless from any claim, demand liability, damage, costs, expense
(including attorney fees), or loss arising out of or related to any activity
of Tenant, its agents, or invitee's on the Premises or any condition existing
in the Premises, including any such claim, loss or liability that may be
caused or contributed to in whole or in part by Landlord, unless caused by the
Landlord's own negligence.
7.1.A) ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNIFICATION: Notwithstanding any other provision
of the lease, and without limiting the generality of Paragraph 7.1, Tenant
shall indemnify, defend, and hold Landlord harmless for any damages,
penalties, fines, costs, liabilities, or losses (including, without
limitation, diminution in value of the Premises, damages for the loss or
restriction on the use of rental or usable space or of any amenity of the
Premises, damages arising from any adverse impact on marketing of space, and
sums paid in settlement of claims, attorneys' fees, consultant fees, and
expert fees) which arise during or after the lease term as a result of
contamination by Hazardous Substances as a result of Tenant's use or activity,
or by Tenant's agents or contractors. This indemnification of Landlord by
Tenant includes, without limitation, costs and expenses for Attorney's,
Engineer's, and other professionals, and their assistants, incurred in
connection with any investigation of site conditions or any cleanup, remedial,
removal, or restoration work required by a federal, state, or local government
agency or political subdivision because of Hazardous Substances present in the
soil or ground water on or under the
Premises. Without limiting the foregoing, if the presence of any Hazardous
Substances on the Premise caused or permitted by Tenant or its agents or
contractors results in any contamination of the Premises, Tenant shall
promptly take all actions at its sole expense as are necessary to return the
Premises to the condition existing prior to the release of any such Hazardous
Substances to the Premises, provided that Landlord's approval of such actions
shall first be obtained, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld so
long as such actions would not potentially have any material adverse long-term
or short-term effect on the Premises.
7.1.B) SURVIVAL. Tenant's indemnification obligations under this lease
shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the lease.
7.2 ACTS OF OTHER TENANTS Landlord shall have no liability for acts of
other tenants who may be occupying the Building or adjacent Premises.
7.3 LIENS Tenant shall pay as due all claims for work done on and for
services rendered or materials furnished to the Premises at its request and
shall keep the Premises free from any liens. If Tenant fails to pay any such
claims or to discharge any lien, Landlord may do so and collect all costs of
such discharge, including its reasonable attorneys' fees. Such action by
Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of any right or remedy which Landlord
may have on account of Tenant's default. Tenant may withhold payment of any
claim in connection with a good-faith dispute over the obligation to pay, so
long as Landlord's property interests are not jeopardized. If a lien is filed
as a result of nonpayment, Tenant shall, within 10 days after knowledge of the
filing, secure the discharge of the lien.
7.4 LIABILITY INSURANCE At all times during the term of this lease and
renewals thereof, Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, obtain and keep in force
and effect during the terms of this Lease a policy of Combined Single Limit,
Bodily Injury, and Property Damage Insurance, insuring Landlord, by
endorsement, naming the Landlord as an additional insured and Tenant against
any liability arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy, or maintenance of
the Premises and all areas appurtenance thereto. Such insurance shall be a
combined single limit policy in an amount not less than $1,000,000.00 per
occurrence. The limits of said insurance shall not, however, limit the
liability of Tenant hereunder.
All insurance herein required shall be in a form acceptable to Landlord and
obtained from an insurance carrier licensed to do business in the state in
which the property is located. The insurance carrier at all
times during the term of the lease shall have a policyholders rating of not
less than an A+ in the most current edition of Best's Insurance Reports (Said
rating standard shall also apply to paragraph 4.3)
Said insurance shall be delivered prior to, or at, the Commencement Date of
this lease.
In the event Tenant fails to procure, maintain, and/or pay for the insurance
required by this lease said failure shall be an immediate default of said
lease.
Such policy shall provide that the insurance shall not be cancelable or
modified without at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Landlord and
shall be deemed primary and non-contributing with other insurance available to
Landlord.
SECTION 8. LANDLORD'S WARRANTY
POSSESSION AND ENJOYMENT OF PREMISES Subject to paragraph 14.5, relating
to inspection of the Premises, Landlord warrants that, so long as this lease
is not in default, it shall not do any act which will interfere with Tenant's
right to possession and enjoyment of the Premises during the term of this
lease.
SECTION 9. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE
9.1 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASING No part of the premises may be assigned,
mortgaged or subleased by Tenant, nor may a right to use any portion of the
premises be conferred on any third person by any other means without
Landlord's prior written consent. If Tenant desires to enter into a sublease
or assignment, Tenant shall first give to Landlord sixty (60) days prior
written notice, to the proposed effective date of the sublease or assignment.
9.2 THE PROPOSED SUBLEASE REQUEST SHALL BE ACCOMPANIED BY:
a) The name of proposed assignee/sublessee.
b) The nature of the proposed transferee's business to be conducted
upon the premises.
c) The most recent financial statement of proposed transferee.
d) A check payable to Landlord in the amount of $500.00.
e) Submit an "Assignment of Lease" (except for rent as stated herein)
in which the lease terms remain unchanged and no variations from
the existing lease be granted to the proposed sublessee. In
addition, U.S. Bank requires a non-release of liability clause be
contained in the sublessee/assignment agreement.
9.3 INTENT The intent of the sublease and provision for not
unreasonably withholding consent to an assignment or sublet is designed purely
to create an avenue by which the Tenant may dispose of an unwanted financial
burden and not to permit the Tenant to profit from the assignment or sublet.
Thus, any profit intent, direct or indirect, by the Tenant, would be
reasonable basis for withholding consent.
9.3.1. WITHHOLDING CONSENT: The Landlord at Landlord's sole discretion
may withhold Landlord's consent under the following circumstances which shall
include but not be limited to:
a) The proposed assignee or sublessee or its business is subject to
compliance with additional requirements of the law (including related
regulations) commonly known as the "American with Disabilities Act" beyond
those requirements which are applicable to the Tenant desiring to assign or
sublease. Should Tenant pay any additional costs necessary to comply with
these additional laws or requirements Landlord's consent shall not be withheld
on this basis.
b) The proposed assignee or sublessee does not possess equal business
experience or financial capability as the Tenant desiring to assign or
sublease.
c) The proposed assignee or sublessee or its business may create a change
in use, creates a non conforming use, does not comply with the current
zoning, or creates a greater environmental risk than the existing tenant.
d) The propsoed assignee or sublessee does produce percentage rents.
9.4 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING If an assignment or subletting is
permitted, any cash profit, or the net value of any other consideration
received by Tenant as a result of such transaction shall be paid to Landlord
promptly following its receipt by Tenant. Tenant shall pay any costs incurred
by Landlord in connection with a request for assignment or subletting,
including reasonable attorney's fees.
9.5 FAILURE BY TENANT TO COMPLY: Landlord shall have no liability to
Tenant for Tenant's failure to comply with all requirements set forth in
section 9 of this lease. Landlord shall have no liability for
said denial of sublease or assignment.
SECTION 10. DEFAULT
The following shall be events of default:
10.1 NONPAYMENT BY TENANT: Tenant's failure to pay rent or any other
charge under this lease within l0 days after it is due.
10.2 NONCOMPLIANCE BY TENANT: Tenant's failure to comply with any term
or condition, except for insurance coverage which must be continuous and
corrected immediately upon notice, or fulfill any obligation of this lease
(other than the payment of rent or other charges) within 15 days after written
notice by Landlord, specifying the nature of the default. If the default
cannot be completely cured within the 15-day period, this provision shall be
satisfied if Tenant commences correction of the default within the 15-day
period and thereafter proceeds with reasonable diligence and in good faith to
effect the remedy as soon as possible.
10.3 INSOLVENCY OF TENANT Tenant's insolvency; an assignment by Tenant
for the benefit of creditors; the filing by Tenant of a voluntary petition in
bankruptcy, an adjudication that Tenant is bankrupt or the appointment of a
receiver of the properties of Tenant; the filing of an involuntary petition of
bankruptcy and Tenant's failure to secure a dismissal of such petition within
30 days after filing; attachment or levying of execution upon the leasehold
interest and failure of Tenant to secure discharge of such attachment or
release of such levy within 10 days. If Tenant consists of two or more
individuals or business entities, the events of default specified in this
paragraph shall apply to each individual unless within 10 days after an event
of default occurs, the remaining individuals produce evidence satisfactory to
Landlord that they have unconditionally acquired the interest of the one
causing the default.
SECTION 11. REMEDIES ON DEFAULT
11.1 RE-ENTRY In the event of a default, Tenant's right to possession
of the Premises shall immediately terminate. Thereafter, Landlord may
re-enter, take possession of the Premises and remove any persons or property
by legal action or by self-help, with the use of reasonable force and without
liability for damages. Landlord shall have a security interest in Tenant's
property on the Premises at the time of re-entry to secure all sums owed or to
become owing Landlord under the lease. Perfection of such security interest
shall be by taking possession of the property or otherwise as provided by law.
11.2 RELETTING Following re-entry by Landlord because of Tenant's
default, Landlord may relet the Premises for a term longer or shorter than the
term of his lease and upon any reasonable term, including the granting of rent
concessions to the new tenant. Landlord may alter, refurbish or change the
character or use of the Premises in connection with such reletting. No such
reletting by Landlord following Tenant's default shall be construed as an
acceptance of a surrender of the Premises. If rent received upon reletting
exceeds the rent received under this lease, Tenant shall have no claim to the
excess.
11.3 DAMAGES FOR DEFAULT Following re-entry, Landlord shall have the
right to recover from Tenant the following damages:
a) All unpaid rent or other charges for the period prior to re- entry,
plus interest as provided in paragraph 14.6;
b) An amount equal to the rental lost during any period in which the
Premises are not releted if Landlord continuously use reasonable efforts to
relet the Premises during such period. If Landlord lists the Premises with a
real estate broker experienced in leasing commercial properties in the area of
the Premises, this shall constitute the taking of reasonable efforts to relet
the Premises;
c) All costs incurred in reletting or attempting to relet the Premises,
including without limitation, the cost of cleanup and repair in preparation
for a new tenant, the cost of correcting any default or restoring any
unauthorized alterations and the amount of any real estate commissions or
advertising expenses;
d) The difference between the rent reserved under this lease and the
amount actually received by Landlord upon any reletting;
e) Landlord shall have the right to collect from Tenant any reasonable
attorney's fees incurred in connection with any default under the lease,
whether such default occurs prior to, or after, Landlord's necessity to
re-enter the premises, and for collection activity undertaken by Landlord,
whether or not any litigation is commenced.
11.4 ACTIONS ON DEFAULT Landlord may sue periodically to recover
damages as they accrue throughout the lease term and no action for accrued
damages shall be a bar to a later action for damages subsequently accruing.
To avoid a multiplicity of actions, Landlord may obtain a decree of specific
performance requiring Tenant to pay the damages stated in paragraph 11.3 as
they accrue. Alternatively, Landlord may in any one action elect to recover
accrued damages plus damages attributable to the remaining term of the lease
equal to the difference between the rent under this lease and the reasonable
rental value of the Premises for the remainder of the term, discounted to the
time of the judgment at the rate of three percent per annum.
11.5 TENANT'S POSSESSION FOLLOWING DEFAULT In the event that Tenant
remains in possession following default and Landlord does not elect to
re-enter, Landlord may recover all unpaid rent and other charges, and shall
have the right to cure any non-monetary default and recover the cost of such
cure from Tenant, plus interest at the maximum legal rate from the date of the
expenditure. In addition, Landlord shall be entitled to recover attorney's
fees and costs reasonably incurred in connection with the default, whether or
not litigation is commenced. Landlord may sue to recover such amounts as they
accrue, and no one action for accrued damages shall bar a later action for
damages subsequently accruing.
11.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE The foregoing remedies shall not be exclusive
but shall be in addition to all other remedies and rights provided under
applicable law, and no election to pursue one remedy shall preclude the
Landlord from pursuing any and all other remedies available.
SECTION 12. SURRENDER ON TERMINATION
12.1 SURRENDER OF PREMISES Upon expiration of the lease term or earlier
termination because of default, Tenant shall deliver all keys to Landlord and
surrender the Premises to Landlord in same condition as it was at the time of
the signing of this lease, broom clean, and free of any outstanding utility
charges, or other charges which are the responsibility of Tenant under the
lease. Alterations constructed by Tenant pursuant to Landlord's permission
shall not be removed or restored to the original condition unless the terms of
permission for the alterations so require. Depreciation, and wear from
ordinary use for the purposes for which the Premises were let need not be
restored, but all repair for which Tenant is responsible shall be completed
prior to such surrender. Tenant's obligation under this paragraph shall not
apply in case of termination of the lease because of destruction of the
Premises.
12.2 FIXTURES With the exception of Tenant's movable trade fixtures,
all other fixtures placed upon the Premises during the term shall, at
Landlord's option, become the property of Landlord. Landlord may elect to
require Tenant to remove all such fixtures, which would otherwise remain the
property of Landlord, and to repair any damage resulting from the removal.
Should Tenant fail to effect such removals or make such repairs, Landlord may
do so and charge the cost to Tenant with interest at the maximum legal rate
from the date of the expenditure.
12.3 REMOVAL OF TENANT'S PROPERTY If tenant is not in default of its
payment obligations under this lease at the time of termination Tenant shall
remove all furnishings, furniture, trade fixtures, and all items of personal
property that remain the property of Tenant. Failure to do by the end of the
lease term shall be an abandonment of the property and Tenant shall have no
further rights therein except as provided below. Landlord may elect to
proceed as follows with respect to such abandoned property:
a) Retain or dispose of the property as it sees fit; without recourse to
Landlord;
b) Following 20-days written notice to Tenant, remove the property and
place it in public storage for Tenant's account, in which case Tenant shall be
liable for the cost of removal, transportation and storage, plus interest at
the maximum legal rate from the date of all expenditures.
12.4 HOLDOVER Should Tenant fail to vacate the Premises when required,
Landlord's rights shall be as follows:
a) Landlord may elect to treat Tenant as a tenant from month to month
subject to all the provisions of this lease except the provisions for term;
b) Upon 30 days written notice Landlord may establish a new
monthly base rental rate, or percentage rent.
c) Landlord shall not be require to make any repairs, and or major
component replacement during said holdover period, unless agreed to by
Landlord;
d) Landlord may elect to take legal action to eject Tenant from the
Premises and to collect any damages caused by Tenant's wrongful holding over.
12.5 Tenant's failure to remove property as required by paragraph 12.3
above shall constitute a failure to vacate to which paragraph 12.4 shall apply
if the property not removed will substantially interfere with occupancy of the
Premises by another tenant or with occupancy by Landlord for any purpose
including preparation for a new tenant.
