NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1998
(Unaudited)
(1) The condensed statements included herein have been prepared
by the Partnership, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to a fair statement of the results of
operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent with
the annual audited statements. The adjustments made to these
condensed statements consist only of normal recurring
adjustments. Certain information, accounting policies, and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to such rules and regulations, although the Partnership
believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. It is suggested that
these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and the summary of significant
accounting policies and notes thereto included in the
Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB.
(2) Organization -
AEI Real Estate Fund XVIII Limited Partnership (Partnership)
was formed to acquire and lease commercial properties to
operating tenants. The Partnership's operations are managed
by AEI Fund Management XVIII, Inc. (AFM), the Managing
General Partner of the Partnership. Robert P. Johnson, the
President and sole shareholder of AFM, serves as the
Individual General Partner of the Partnership. An affiliate
of AFM, AEI Fund Management, Inc., performs the
administrative and operating functions for the Partnership.
The terms of the Partnership offering call for a
subscription price of $1,000 per Limited Partnership Unit,
payable on acceptance of the offer. The Partnership
commenced operations on February 15, 1989 when minimum
subscriptions of 1,500 Limited Partnership Units
($1,500,000) were accepted. The Partnership's offering
terminated December 4, 1990 when the extended offering
period expired. The Partnership received subscriptions for
22,783.05 Limited Partnership Units ($22,783,050).
Under the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement, the
Limited Partners and General Partners contributed funds of
$22,783,050, and $1,000, respectively. During the operation
of the Partnership, any Net Cash Flow, as defined, which the
General Partners determine to distribute will be distributed
90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners;
provided, however, that such distributions to the General
Partners will be subordinated to the Limited Partners first
receiving an annual, noncumulative distribution of Net Cash
Flow equal to 10% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution, as
defined, and, provided further, that in no event will the
General Partners receive less than 1% of such Net Cash Flow
per annum. Distributions to Limited Partners will be made
pro rata by Units.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)
(2) Organization - (Continued)
Any Net Proceeds of Sale, as defined, from the sale or
financing of the Partnership's properties which the General
Partners determine to distribute will, after provisions for
debts and reserves, be paid in the following manner: (i)
first, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General
Partners until the Limited Partners receive an amount equal
to: (a) their Adjusted Capital Contribution plus (b) an
amount equal to 6% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution
per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not
previously distributed from Net Cash Flow; (ii) next, 99% to
the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners until
the Limited Partners receive an amount equal to 14% of their
Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative but not
compounded, to the extent not previously distributed; (iii)
next, to the General Partners until cumulative distributions
to the General Partners under Items (ii) and (iii) equal 15%
of cumulative distributions to all Partners under Items (ii)
and (iii). Any remaining balance will be distributed 85% to
the Limited Partners and 15% to the General Partners.
Distributions to the Limited Partners will be made pro rata
by Units.
For tax purposes, profits from operations, other than
profits attributable to the sale, exchange, financing,
refinancing or other disposition of the Partnership's
property, will be allocated first in the same ratio in
which, and to the extent, Net Cash Flow is distributed to
the Partners for such year. Any additional profits will be
allocated 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General
Partners. In the event no Net Cash Flow is distributed to
the Limited Partners, 90% of each item of Partnership
income, gain or credit for each respective year shall be
allocated to the Limited Partners, and 10% of each such item
shall be allocated to the General Partners. Net losses from
operations will be allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and
2% to the General Partners.
For tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing,
or other disposition of the Partnership's property will be
allocated in accordance with the Partnership Agreement as
follows: (i) first, to those Partners with deficit balances
in their capital accounts in an amount equal to the sum of
such deficit balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited
Partners and 1% to the General Partners until the aggregate
balance in the Limited Partners' capital accounts equals the
sum of the Limited Partners' Adjusted Capital Contributions
plus an amount equal to 14% of their Adjusted Capital
Contributions per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to
the extent not previously allocated; (iii) third, to the
General Partners until cumulative allocations to the General
Partners equal 15% of cumulative allocations. Any remaining
balance will be allocated 85% to the Limited Partners and
15% to the General Partners. Losses will be allocated 98%
to the Limited Partners and 2% to the General Partners.
The General Partners are not required to currently fund a
deficit capital balance. Upon liquidation of the
Partnership or withdrawal by a General Partner, the General
Partners will contribute to the Partnership an amount equal
to the lesser of the deficit balances in their capital
accounts or 1% of total Limited Partners' and General
Partners' capital contributions.

(3) Investments in Real Estate -
The Partnership owned a 4.1022% interest in a Sizzler
restaurant in Cincinnati, Ohio, a 93.2478% interest in a
Sizzler restaurant in Springboro, Ohio, and a 100% interest
in a Sizzler restaurant in Fairfield, Ohio. In November,
1993, after reviewing the lessee's operating results, the
Partnership determined that the lessee would be unable to
operate the restaurants in a manner capable of maximizing
the restaurants' sales. Consequently, at the direction of
the Partnership, a multi-unit restaurant operator assumed
operation of the restaurants while the Partnership reviewed
the available options. In January, 1994 and June, 1994, the
Partnership closed the restaurants in Cincinnati and
Springboro, respectively, and listed them for sale or lease.
While the properties were vacant, the Partnership was
responsible for the real estate taxes and other costs
required to maintain the properties.
No rents were collected from the Sizzler restaurants in the
first nine months of 1998 and 1997. The total amount of
rent not collected in 1998 and 1997 was $101,715 and
$293,173, respectively, for the three properties. These
amounts were not accrued for financial reporting purposes.
On January 23, 1997, the Partnership sold its interest in
the Cincinnati restaurant to an unrelated third party. The
Partnership received net sales proceeds of $19,867, which
resulted in a net loss of $31,700, which was recognized as a
real estate impairment in 1996.
In December, 1996, the Partnership, in order to avoid
additional property management expenses, decided to sell the
Sizzler properties in Springboro and Fairfield rather than
to continue to attempt to re-lease the properties. As a
result, the properties were reclassified on the balance
sheet to Real Estate Held for Sale. In addition, based on
an analysis of market conditions in the area, it was
determined that a sale of the properties would result in net
proceeds of approximately $800,000. The Partnership's share
of the proceeds would be approximately $773,000. A charge
to operations for real estate impairment of $1,654,600
($693,500 for the Springboro Sizzler, and $961,100 for the
Fairfield Sizzler) was recognized in the fourth quarter of
1996, which is the difference between book value at December
31, 1996 of $2,427,600 ($1,066,500 for the Springboro
Sizzler and $1,361,100 for the Fairfield Sizzler) and the
estimated market value of $773,000 ($373,000 for the
Springboro Sizzler and $400,000 for the Fairfield Sizzler).
The charge was recorded against the cost of the land,
building and equipment.
On September 22, 1997, the Partnership sold the Sizzler
restaurant in Fairfield, Ohio to an unrelated third party.
The Partnership received net sale proceeds of $528,476,
which is in excess of the book value of the property after
the recognition of the real estate impairment. As a result,
the Partnership recognized a net gain of $128,498.
On July 21, 1998, the Partnership sold its interest in the
Sizzler restaurant in Springboro, Ohio to an unrelated third
party. The Partnership received net sale proceeds of
$350,635, which resulted in a net loss on the sale of
$22,345.

In August, 1995, the lessee of the two Rally's properties
filed for reorganization. After reviewing the operating
results of the lessee, the Partnership agreed to amend the
Leases of the two properties. Effective December 1, 1995,
the Partnership amended the Leases to reduce the annual base
rent from $47,498 and $48,392 to $15,000 for each property.
The Partnership could receive additional rent in the future
equal to 6.75% of the amount by which gross receipts exceed
$275,000. In 1997, the Leases, as amended, were confirmed
as part of the reorganization plan. The lessee has agreed
to pay all pre-petition and post-petition rents due of
$75,775 and the Partnership's related administrative and
legal expenses. However, the Partnership has not collected
any of these amounts and, due to the uncertainty of
collection, has not accrued them for financial reporting
purposes.
As of December 31, 1997, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value of
the Rally's properties was approximately $270,000. In the
fourth quarter of 1997, a charge to operations for real
estate impairment of $220,500 was recognized, which is the
difference between the book value at December 31, 1997 of
$490,500 and the estimated fair value of $270,000. The
charge was recorded against the cost of the building and
equipment.
In February, 1996, the Partnership called a letter of credit
for $109,393 related to the Taco Cabana restaurant in
Brownsville, Texas. The Partnership applied the funds to
satisfy 1996 rent income and real estate taxes due and a
portion of the real estate taxes due in 1997. In 1997, the
Partnership took possession of the property and listed it
for sale or lease. The Partnership was scheduled to
receive, but did not collect, $89,134 and $85,706 in rent in
the first nine months of 1998 and 1997, respectively. These
amounts were not accrued for financial reporting purposes.
While the property is vacant, the Partnership is responsible
for real estate taxes and other costs required to maintain
the property.
As of December 31, 1997, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value of
the Brownsville property was approximately $466,600. In the
fourth quarter of 1997, a charge to operations for real
estate impairment of $239,600 was recognized, which is the
difference between the book value at December 31, 1997 of
$706,200 and the estimated fair value of $466,600. The
charge was recorded against the cost of the land and
building.
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 94.1709% of
the Applebee's restaurant in Destin, Florida in seven
separate transactions to unrelated third parties. The
Partnership received total net sale proceeds of $1,413,627
which resulted in a total net gain of $481,379. The total
cost and related accumulated depreciation of the interests
sold was $1,053,565 and $121,317, respectively. For the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, the net gain was
$320,171.
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 90.6301% of
a Taco Cabana restaurant in San Antonio, Texas in seven
separate transactions to unrelated third parties. The
Partnership received total net sale proceeds of $1,520,182
which resulted in a total net gain of $562,654. The total
cost and related accumulated depreciation of the interests
sold was $1,043,983 and $86,455, respectively. For the nine
months ended September 30, 1997, the net gain was $172,591.

Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 77.4842% of
its interest in the Tractor Supply Company in Bristol,
Virginia in seven separate transactions to unrelated third
parties. The Partnership received total net sale proceeds
of $1,189,572 which resulted in a total net gain of
$217,301. The total cost and related accumulated
depreciation of the interests sold was $997,602 and $25,331,
respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997,

Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 26.0312% of
its interest in the Champps Americana restaurant in
Columbus, Ohio in three separate transactions to unrelated
third parties. The Partnership received total net sale

$151,139. The total cost and related accumulated
depreciation of the interests sold was $667,813 and $11,175,
respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
the net gain was $151,139.
During the first nine months of 1997, the Partnership

and General Partners as part of their regular quarterly
distributions, which represented a return of capital of
$4.77 per Limited Partnership Unit.
On July 30, 1997, the Partnership purchased a Fuddrucker's
restaurant in Thornton, Colorado for $1,405,771. The
property is leased to Fuddrucker's, Inc. under a Lease

under a Lease Agreement with a primary term of 20 years and
annual rental payments of $25,332. Effective June 20, 1998,
the annual rent was increased to $37,998. Simultaneously
with the purchase of the land, the Partnership entered into

funds to TLLC for the construction of a Tumbleweed
restaurant on the site. Through September 30, 1998, the
Partnership had advanced $595,824 for the construction of
the property and was charging interest on the advances at a
rate of 8.5%. Effective August 28, 1998, the interest rate
was increased to 10.25%. The total purchase price,
including the cost of the land, will be approximately
$1,490,000. After the construction is complete, the Lease
Agreement will be amended to require annual rental payments
of approximately $153,000.
In April, 1998, the Partnership entered into an Agreement to
purchase an Old Country Buffet restaurant to be constructed
in Northlake, Illinois. On May 18, 1998, the Partnership
purchased the land for $330,000. The Partnership charged
interest on the land at a rate of 10% until September 27,
1998. On September 28, 1998, the tenant began paying annual
rent of $130,000. On September 30, 1998, the Partnership
advanced $370,000 for the construction of the property.
After the construction is complete, the Partnership will pay
$639,000 of additional construction costs. The total
purchase price will be approximately $1,339,000. The
property is leased to OCB Realty Co. under a Lease Agreement
with a primary term of 20 years.
AEI REAL ESTATE FUND XVIII LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)
(3) Investments in Real Estate - (Continued)
On August 28, 1998, the Partnership purchased a 38% interest
in a parcel of land in Centerville, Ohio for $703,376. The
land is leased to Americana Dining Corporation (ADC) under a
Lease Agreement with a primary term of 20 years and annual
rental payments of $49,236. Simultaneously with the
purchase of the land, the Partnership entered into a
Development Financing Agreement under which the Partnership
will advance funds to ADC for the construction of a Champps
Americana restaurant on the site. Through September 30,
1998, the Partnership had advanced $141,042 for the
construction of the property and was charging interest on
the advances at a rate of 7%. The Partnership's share of
the total purchase price, including the cost of the land,
will be approximately $1,609,300. After the construction is
complete, the Lease Agreement will be amended to require
annual rental payments of approximately $166,000. The
remaining interests in the property are owned by AEI Real
Estate Fund XVII Limited Partnership, AEI Income & Growth
Fund XXI Limited Partnership and AEI Income & Growth Fund
XXII Limited Partnership, affiliates of the Partnership.
During 1997 and the first nine months of 1998, the
Partnership incurred net costs of $100,294 related to the
review of potential property acquisitions. Of these costs,
$10,441 have been capitalized and allocated to land,
building and equipment. The remaining costs of $89,853 have
been capitalized and will be allocated to property
acquisitions in future periods.
(4) Payable to AEI Fund Management -
AEI Fund Management, Inc. performs the administrative and
operating functions for the Partnership. The payable to AEI
Fund Management represents the balance due for those
services. This balance is non-interest bearing and
unsecured and is to be paid in the normal course of
business.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Results of Operations
For the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, the
Partnership recognized rental income of $1,083,020 and
$1,058,808, respectively. During the same periods, the
Partnership earned investment income of $174,133 and $129,390,
respectively. In 1998, rental income increased as a result of
the additional rent received from six property acquisitions in
1997 and 1998 and rent increases on eight properties. The
increase in rental income was partially offset by the property
sales discussed below. In 1998, the Partnership earned
additional investment income on the net proceeds from the
property sales.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
The Partnership owned a 4.1022% interest in a Sizzler
restaurant in Cincinnati, Ohio, a 93.2478% interest in a Sizzler
restaurant in Springboro, Ohio, and a 100% interest in a Sizzler
restaurant in Fairfield, Ohio. In November, 1993, after
reviewing the lessee's operating results, the Partnership
determined that the lessee would be unable to operate the
restaurants in a manner capable of maximizing the restaurants'
sales. Consequently, at the direction of the Partnership, a
multi-unit restaurant operator assumed operation of the
restaurants while the Partnership reviewed the available options.
In January, 1994 and June, 1994, the Partnership closed the
restaurants in Cincinnati and Springboro, respectively, and
listed them for sale or lease. While the properties were vacant,
the Partnership was responsible for the real estate taxes and
other costs required to maintain the properties.
No rents were collected from the Sizzler restaurants in
the first nine months of 1998 and 1997. The total amount of rent
not collected in 1998 and 1997 was $101,715 and $293,173,
respectively, for the three properties. These amounts were not
accrued for financial reporting purposes.
On January 23, 1997, the Partnership sold its interest in
the Cincinnati restaurant to an unrelated third party. The
Partnership received net sales proceeds of $19,867, which
resulted in a net loss of $31,700, which was recognized as a real
estate impairment in 1996.
In December, 1996, the Partnership, in order to avoid
additional property management expenses, decided to sell the
Sizzler properties in Springboro and Fairfield rather than to
continue to attempt to re-lease the properties. As a result, the
properties were reclassified on the balance sheet to Real Estate
Held for Sale. In addition, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined that a sale of the
properties would result in net proceeds of approximately
$800,000. The Partnership's share of the proceeds would be
approximately $773,000. A charge to operations for real estate
impairment of $1,654,600 ($693,500 for the Springboro Sizzler,
and $961,100 for the Fairfield Sizzler) was recognized in the
fourth quarter of 1996, which is the difference between book
value at December 31, 1996 of $2,427,600 ($1,066,500 for the
Springboro Sizzler and $1,361,100 for the Fairfield Sizzler) and
the estimated market value of $773,000 ($373,000 for the
Springboro Sizzler and $400,000 for the Fairfield Sizzler). The
charge was recorded against the cost of the land, building and
equipment.
On September 22, 1997, the Partnership sold the Sizzler
restaurant in Fairfield, Ohio to an unrelated third party. The
Partnership received net sale proceeds of $528,476, which is in
excess of the book value of the property after the recognition of
the real estate impairment. As a result, the Partnership
recognized a net gain of $128,498.
On July 21, 1998, the Partnership sold its interest in the
Sizzler restaurant in Springboro, Ohio to an unrelated third
party. The Partnership received net sale proceeds of $350,635,
which resulted in a net loss on the sale of $22,345.
In August, 1995, the lessee of the two Rally's properties
filed for reorganization. After reviewing the operating results
of the lessee, the Partnership agreed to amend the Leases of the
two properties. Effective December 1, 1995, the Partnership
amended the Leases to reduce the annual base rent from $47,498
and $48,392 to $15,000 for each property. The Partnership could
receive additional rent in the future equal to 6.75% of the
amount by which gross receipts exceed $275,000. In 1997, the
Leases, as amended, were confirmed as part of the reorganization
plan. The lessee has agreed to pay all pre-petition and post-
petition rents due of $75,775 and the Partnership's related
administrative and legal expenses. However, the Partnership has
not collected any of these amounts and, due to the uncertainty of
collection, has not accrued them for financial reporting
purposes.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
As of December 31, 1997, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value of the
Rally's properties was approximately $270,000. In the fourth
quarter of 1997, a charge to operations for real estate
impairment of $220,500 was recognized, which is the difference
between the book value at December 31, 1997 of $490,500 and the
estimated fair value of $270,000. The charge was recorded
against the cost of the building and equipment.
In February, 1996, the Partnership called a letter of
credit for $109,393 related to the Taco Cabana restaurant in
Brownsville, Texas. The Partnership applied the funds to satisfy
1996 rent income and real estate taxes due and a portion of the
real estate taxes due in 1997. In 1997, the Partnership took
possession of the property and listed it for sale or lease. The
Partnership was scheduled to receive, but did not collect,
$89,134 and $85,706 in rent in the first nine months of 1998 and
1997, respectively. These amounts were not accrued for financial
reporting purposes. While the property is vacant, the
Partnership is responsible for real estate taxes and other costs
required to maintain the property.
As of December 31, 1997, based on an analysis of market
conditions in the area, it was determined the fair value of the
Brownsville property was approximately $466,600. In the fourth
quarter of 1997, a charge to operations for real estate
impairment of $239,600 was recognized, which is the difference
between the book value at December 31, 1997 of $706,200 and the
estimated fair value of $466,600. The charge was recorded
against the cost of the land and building.
During the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
the Partnership paid Partnership administration expenses to
affiliated parties of $188,901 and $195,928, respectively. These
administration expenses include costs associated with the
management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting
requirements and correspondence to the Limited Partners. During
the same periods, the Partnership incurred Partnership
administration and property management expenses from unrelated
parties of $51,017 and $96,475, respectively. These expenses
represent direct payments to third parties for legal and filing
fees, direct administrative costs, outside audit and accounting
costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs. The decrease
in these expenses in 1998, when compared to 1997, is the result
of expenses incurred in 1997 related to the Sizzler and Rally's
situations discussed above.
As of September 30, 1998, the Partnership's annualized
cash distribution rate was 6.1%, based on the Adjusted Capital
Contribution. Distributions of Net Cash Flow to the General
Partners were subordinated to the Limited Partners as required in
the Partnership Agreement. As a result, 99% of distributions and
income were allocated to Limited Partners and 1% to the General
Partners.
Inflation has had a minimal effect on income from
operations. It is expected that increases in sales volumes of
the tenants due to inflation and real sales growth, will result
in an increase in rental income over the term of the Leases.
Inflation also may cause the Partnership's real estate to
appreciate in value. However, inflation and changing prices may
also have an adverse impact on the operating margins of the
properties' tenants which could impair their ability to pay rent
and subsequently reduce the Partnership's Net Cash Flow available
for distributions.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
AEI Fund Management, Inc. (AEI) performs all management
services for the Partnership. AEI is currently analyzing its
computer hardware and software systems to determine what, if any,
resources need to be dedicated regarding Year 2000 issues. The
Partnership does not anticipate any significant operational
impact or incurring material costs as a result of AEI becoming
Year 2000 compliant.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the
Partnership's cash balances decreased $3,476,563 mainly as a
result of cash used to purchase additional properties. Net cash
provided by operating activities increased from $886,237 in 1997
to $1,060,794 in 1998. The increase was due to an increase in
income and a decrease in expenses in 1998, and net timing
differences in the collection of payments from the lessees and
the payment of expenses.
The major components of the Partnership's cash flow from
investing activities are investments in real estate and proceeds
from the sale of real estate. During the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, the Partnership generated cash flow
from the sale of real estate of $350,635 and $3,196,982,
respectively. During the same periods, the Partnership expended
$3,924,927 and $1,445,445, respectively, to invest in real
properties (inclusive of acquisition expenses) as the Partnership
reinvested cash generated from property sales.
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 94.1709%
of the Applebee's restaurant in Destin, Florida in seven separate
transactions to unrelated third parties. The Partnership
received total net sale proceeds of $1,413,627 which resulted in
a total net gain of $481,379. The total cost and related
accumulated depreciation of the interests sold was $1,053,565 and
$121,317, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30,
1997, the net gain was $320,171.
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 90.6301%
of a Taco Cabana restaurant in San Antonio, Texas in seven
separate transactions to unrelated third parties. The
Partnership received total net sale proceeds of $1,520,182 which
resulted in a total net gain of $562,654. The total cost and
related accumulated depreciation of the interests sold was
$1,043,983 and $86,455, respectively. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, the net gain was $172,591.
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 77.4842%
of its interest in the Tractor Supply Company in Bristol,
Virginia in seven separate transactions to unrelated third
parties. The Partnership received total net sale proceeds of
$1,189,572 which resulted in a total net gain of $217,301. The
total cost and related accumulated depreciation of the interests
sold was $997,602 and $25,331, respectively. For the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, the net gain was $72,607.
Through December 31, 1997, the Partnership sold 26.0312%
of its interest in the Champps Americana restaurant in Columbus,
Ohio in three separate transactions to unrelated third parties.
The Partnership received total net sale proceeds of $807,777
which resulted in a total net gain of $151,139. The total cost
and related accumulated depreciation of the interests sold was
$667,813 and $11,175, respectively. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, the net gain was $151,139.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
During the first nine months of 1997, the Partnership
distributed $104,820 of the net sale proceeds to the Limited and
General Partners as part of their regular quarterly
distributions, which represented a return of capital of $4.77 per
Limited Partnership Unit.
On July 30, 1997, the Partnership purchased a Fuddrucker's
restaurant in Thornton, Colorado for $1,405,771. The property is
leased to Fuddrucker's, Inc. under a Lease Agreement with a
primary term of 20 years and annual rental payments of $148,387.
On December 23, 1997, the Partnership purchased a 23.95%
interest in a parcel of land in Troy, Michigan for $361,889. The
land is leased to Champps Entertainment, Inc. (Champps) under a
Lease Agreement with a primary term of 20 years and annual rental
payments of $25,332. Effective June 20, 1998, the annual rent
was increased to $37,998. Simultaneously with the purchase of
the land, the Partnership entered into a Development Financing
Agreement under which the Partnership advanced funds to Champps
for the construction of a Champps Americana restaurant on the
site. Initially, the Partnership charged interest on the
advances at a rate of 7.0%. Effective June 20, 1998, the
interest rate was increased to 10.50%. On September 3, 1998,
after the development was completed, the Lease Agreement was
amended to require annual rental payments of $122,605. The
Partnership's share of the total acquisition costs, including the
cost of the land, was $1,175,806. The remaining interests in the
property are owned by AEI Real Estate Fund XV Limited
Partnership, AEI Real Estate Fund XVII Limited Partnership and
AEI Net Lease Income & Growth Fund XIX Limited Partnership,
affiliates of the Partnership.
In January, 1998, the Partnership entered into an
agreement to purchase a 45% interest in a Tumbleweed restaurant
in Chillicothe, Ohio. On April 13, 1998, the Partnership
purchased its share of the land for $216,915. The land is leased
to Tumbleweed, LLC (TLLC) under a Lease Agreement with a primary
term of 15 years and annual rental payments of $18,438.
Effective August 10, 1998, the annual rent was increased to
$22,234. Simultaneously with the purchase of the land, the
Partnership entered into a Development Financing Agreement under
which the Partnership will advance funds to TLLC for the
construction of a Tumbleweed restaurant on the site. Through
September 30, 1998, the Partnership had advanced $300,558 for the
construction of the property and was charging interest on the
advances at a rate of 8.5%. Effective August 10, 1998, the
interest rate was increased to 10.25%. The Partnership's share
of the total purchase price, including the cost of the land, will
be approximately $610,650. After the construction is complete,
the Lease Agreement will be amended to require annual rental
payments of approximately $62,600. The remaining interests in
the property are owned by the Individual General Partner and AEI
Net Lease Income & Growth Fund XIX Limited Partnership,
affiliates of the Partnership.
In April, 1998, the Partnership entered into an agreement
to purchase a Tumbleweed restaurant in Columbus, Ohio. On May 1,
1998, the Partnership purchased the land for $503,832. The land
is leased to TLLC under a Lease Agreement with a primary term of
15 years and annual rental payments of $42,826. Effective August
28, 1998, the annual rent was increased to $51,643.
Simultaneously with the purchase of the land, the Partnership

land, will be approximately $1,490,000. After the construction
is complete, the Lease Agreement will be amended to require
annual rental payments of approximately $153,000.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
In April, 1998, the Partnership entered into an Agreement
to purchase an Old Country Buffet restaurant to be constructed in
Northlake, Illinois. On May 18, 1998, the Partnership purchased
the land for $330,000. The Partnership charged interest on the
land at a rate of 10% until September 27, 1998. On September 28,
1998, the tenant began paying annual rent of $130,000. On
September 30, 1998, the Partnership advanced $370,000 for the
construction of the property. After the construction is
complete, the Partnership will pay $639,000 of additional
construction costs. The total purchase price will be
approximately $1,339,000. The property is leased to OCB Realty
Co. under a Lease Agreement with a primary term of 20 years.
On August 28, 1998, the Partnership purchased a 38%
interest in a parcel of land in Centerville, Ohio for $703,376.
The land is leased to Americana Dining Corporation (ADC) under a
Lease Agreement with a primary term of 20 years and annual rental
payments of $49,236. Simultaneously with the purchase of the
land, the Partnership entered into a Development Financing
Agreement under which the Partnership will advance funds to ADC
for the construction of a Champps Americana restaurant on the

interests in the property are owned by AEI Real Estate Fund XVII
Limited Partnership, AEI Income & Growth Fund XXI Limited
Partnership and AEI Income & Growth Fund XXII Limited
Partnership, affiliates of the Partnership.
The Partnership's primary use of cash flow is distribution
and redemption payments to Partners. The Partnership declares
its regular quarterly distributions before the end of each
quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end
of each quarter. The Partnership attempts to maintain a stable
distribution rate from quarter to quarter. Prior to 1998,
redemption payments were paid to redeeming Partners in the fourth
quarter of each year. Beginning in 1998, redemption payments
will be paid to redeeming Partners on a quarterly basis. The
redemption payments generally are funded with cash that would
normally be paid as part of the regular quarterly distributions.
As a result, total distributions and distributions payable have
fluctuated from year to year due to cash used to fund redemption
payments.
The Partnership may acquire Units from Limited Partners
who have tendered their Units to the Partnership. Such Units may
be acquired at a discount. The Partnership is not obligated to
purchase in any year more than 5% of the number of Units
outstanding at the beginning of the year. In no event shall the
Partnership be obligated to purchase Units if, in the sole
discretion of the Managing General Partner, such purchase would
impair the capital or operation of the Partnership.
On April 1, 1998, six Limited Partners redeemed a total of
161.0 Partnership Units for $128,961 in accordance with the
Partnership Agreement. On July 1, 1998, nineteen Limited
Partners redeemed a total of 199.0 Partnership Units for
$159,399. On October 1, 1998, seventeen Limited Partners
redeemed a total of 216.8 Partnership Units for $173,544. The
Partnership acquired these Units using Net Cash Flow from
operations. In prior years, a total of sixty-eight Limited
Partners redeemed 1,295.52 Partnership Units for $1,028,771. The
redemptions increase the remaining Limited Partners' ownership
interest in the Partnership.
ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Continued)
The continuing rent payments from the properties, together
with cash generated from the property sales, should be adequate
to fund continuing distributions and meet other Partnership
obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.

so submitted.
8. APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT - Lessor shall have received an

The Development Financing shall be disbursed (a "Disbursement") as
follows:
1. PROCEDURE - Not more often than monthly, Lessee may submit an
Application for Payment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
"C" requesting the Disbursement of proceeds under the Development
Financing, which request shall be submitted to Lessor and to LTIC-
CDD at least five (5) business days prior to the date on which a
Disbursement is requested. Provided the conditions of this
Development Financing Agreement are met on the date requested for
such advance, Lessor shall advance to LTIC-CDD amounts certified
to be currently payable by Lessee (excluding the retainage
hereinafter specified) for the then incurred portion of Total
Construction Costs pursuant to the Application for Payment. All
costs shall have been approved in writing by the Project
Architect, Lessee, Contractor, and if required by Lessor, by the
Inspecting Architect. All interest accruing need not be
disbursed to LTIC-CDD, but may be immediately and automatically
credited by Lessor to the Development Financing account. LTIC-
CDD shall disburse all funds advanced to it by Lessor in
accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and
any special escrow requirements imposed by LTIC-CDD as a
condition to its acting as the disbursing agent hereunder. The
disbursed proceeds of the Development Financing shall bear
interest from and including the date of disbursement to LTIC-CDD
or the date of credit by Lessor provided that in the event LTIC-
CDD shall fail to disburse any advances within five (5) business
days after the date set for an advance, LTIC-CDD shall return
said advance to Lessor and interest on such advance shall abate
from and after the date of such return. Any amounts disbursed to
LTIC-CDD and returned by LTIC-CDD to the Lessor shall not be
deemed to be advanced under the Development Financing Documents.
Each Application for Payment shall clearly set forth the amounts
due to Lessee and to each Contractor out of the requested
Development Financing and shall be accompanied by the following:
a. A Draw Request Certificate in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit "D" certifying that each contractor or
materialman for which payment is requested in the relevant
Application for Payment has satisfactorily completed the work or
furnished the materials for which payment is requested in
accordance with the applicable contract; that all work for which
an Application for Payment is made substantially conforms to the
Contract Documents and any approved changes, and is in place; and
that sufficient funds remain of the undisbursed Development
Financing proceeds to complete the Project and that all funds
previously disbursed have been applied as per the previous
Application for Payment.
b. Waivers of Mechanics' Liens and
Materialmen's Liens executed by all Contractors for all work done
and all materials furnished to the Leased Premises and included
in such current Application for Payment, or evidence reasonably
required by Title to insure over the same by special specific
endorsement, or such other releases or lien pursuant to bonding
or otherwise to prevent such liens from attaching to the Leased
Premises.
c. Waivers of Mechanics' Liens and
Materialmen's Liens executed by all Sub-Contractors and workmen
and materialmen for all work done and all materials furnished to
the Leased Premises and included in the immediately preceding
Application for Payment, or evidence reasonably required by Title
to insure over the same by special specific endorsement, or such
other releases or lien pursuant to bonding or otherwise to
prevent such liens from attaching to the Leased Premises.
d. Such other supporting evidence,
including invoices and receipts as may be requested by Lessor or
LTIC-CDD to substantiate all payments which are to be made out of
the Disbursement or to substantiate all payments then made in
respect to the Project.
2. INTEREST ADVANCE - If interest has accrued on the Development
Financing and is unpaid or fees are payable to the Lessor
hereunder, Lessor shall be, and hereby is, authorized at any time
to advance to itself from the proceeds of the Development
Financing the total amount of such accrued interest and fees,
whether or not an Application for Payment has been submitted by
the Lessee and the same shall be deemed to be an advance of the
proceeds of the Development Financing under this Agreement in the
same manner and with the same effect as if advanced under the
provisions above. It is understood Lessor may establish an
automatic interest reserve whereby Lessor may withdraw from the
Development Financing account on a regular basis the accrued
interest on the Development Financing and credit the Development
Financing balance with the same.
3. ASSESSMENT AND TAX ADVANCE - As taxes and assessments become due
on the Leased Premises, Lessor shall be, and hereby is,
authorized to advance to itself automatically from the proceeds
of the Development Financing, the total amount of such taxes and
assessments and the same shall be deemed to be an advance of the
proceeds of the Development Financing under this Agreement in the
same manner and with the same effect as if advances under the
provisions above, if not previously paid before due pursuant to
Lessee's obligations under the Lease.
4. DISBURSE UNDER DEVELOPMENT FINANCING DOCUMENT - All sums advanced
and disbursed hereunder shall be disbursed under and shall be
secured by the Development Financing Documents.
5. PAYMENTS TO SUBCONTRACTORS - In its reasonable discretion LTIC-
CDD may make payments directly to any subcontractor or
materialman.

to ninety percent (90%) of the value, exclusive of Contractor's
profit and overhead, of the materials and labor furnished to the
Leased Premises and the balance (herein called the Retainage)
shall be retained by Lessor, provided that thirty (30) days after
completion by each subcontractor or materialman of his
subcontract Lessor will disburse to such party, or to the
Contractor on behalf of such party the Retainage withheld from
said party, provided that as a condition to such disbursement the
Lessee and Project Architect and the Inspecting Architect shall
certify to Lessor the date that such Party's subcontract has been
fully and satisfactorily completed and the subcontractor or
materialmen shall have supplied Title with satisfactory final
lien waivers, including final lien waivers for any of its
submaterialmen or sub- contractors and the requirements of any
bonding company issuing the Bonds shall have been fulfilled. Any
Retainage due the Contractor for work performed or materials
furnished by the Contractor and the final balance of Contractor's
profit and overhead shall be disbursed on the Final Disbursement
Date pursuant to Article IX hereof. Contractor's profit and
overhead shall be disbursed based upon and in proportion to the
percentage of completion of the Project, or amounts payable under
the Construction Contract for work actually performed, whichever
is less, as certified by the Project Architect.

ARTICLE XIII
DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION, CONDEMNATION, USE OF INSURANCE PROCEEDS
1. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF THE LEASED PREMISES. Lessee will
give the Lessor prompt notice of any damage to or destruction of
the Leased Premises and in case of loss covered by policies of
insurance the Lessor (whether before or after the exercise of the
Put if Lessee be in default hereof) is hereby authorized at its
option to settle and adjust any claim arising out of such
policies and collect and receipt for the proceeds payable
therefrom, provided, that the Lessee may itself adjust and
collect for any losses arising out of a single occurrence
aggregating not in excess of $50,000.00. Any expense incurred by
the Lessor in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds
(including the cost of any independent appraisal of the loss or
damage on behalf of Lessor) shall be reimbursed to the Lessor
first out of any proceeds. The proceeds or any part thereof
shall be applied to reduction of the Put Price, which Put may
then be exercised by Lessor, without the application of any
prepayment premium, or to the restoration or repair of the Leased
Premises, the choice of application to be solely at the
discretion of Lessor.
2. CONDEMNATION. Lessee will give the Lessor prompt notice of
any action, actual or threatened, in condemnation or eminent
domain affecting the Leased Premises and hereby assigns,
transfers, and sets over to the Lessor the entire proceeds of any
award or claim for damages for all or any part of the Leased
Premises taken or damaged under the power of eminent domain or
condemnation, the Lessor being hereby authorized to intervene in
any such action and to collect and receive from the condemning
authorities and give proper receipts and acquittances for such
proceeds. Lessee will not enter into any agreements with the
condemning authority permitting or consenting to the taking of
the Leased Premises unless prior written consent of Lessor is
obtained. Any expenses incurred by the Lessor in intervening in
such action or collecting such proceeds shall be reimbursed to
the Lessor first out of the proceeds. The proceeds or any part
thereof shall be applied to reduction of the Put Price, which Put
may then be exercised by Lessor, without the application of any
prepayment premium, or to the restoration or repair of the Leased
Premises, the choice of application to be solely at the
discretion of Lessor.
3. DISBURSEMENT OF INSURANCE AND CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS. Any
restoration or repair shall be done under the supervision of an
architect acceptable to Lessor and pursuant to plans and
specifications approved by the Lessor. Subject to paragraph 4
below, in any case where Lessor may elect to apply the proceeds
to repair or restoration or permit the Lessee to so apply the
proceeds they shall be held by Lessor for such purposes and will
from time to time be disbursed by Lessor to defray the costs of
such restoration or repair under such safeguards and controls as
Lessor may reasonably require to assure completion in accordance
with the approved plans and specifications and free of liens or
claims. Lessee shall on demand deposit with Lessor any sums
necessary to make up any deficits between the actual cost of the
work and the proceeds and provide such lien waivers and
completion bonds as Lessor may reasonably require. Any surplus
which may remain after payment of all costs of restoration or
repair shall be applied against the rent then most remotely to be
paid, whether due or not, without application of any prepayment
premium or credit.
4. LESSOR TO MAKE PROCEEDS AVAILABLE. In the event of insured
damage to the improvements or in the event of a taking by
condemnation of only a portion of the improvements or land area
of the Leased Premises, and provided, the portion remaining can
with restoration or repair continue to be operated for the
purposes utilized immediately prior to such damage or taking, and
if the appraised value of the Leased Premises after such
restoration or repair shall not have been reduced, and provided
further, no event of default exists under this Agreement after
the expiration of any applicable cure periods and Lessee is
diligently pursuing a course of conduct reasonably designed to
cure such default, and the Lessee certified to Lessor their
intention to remain in possession of the Leased Premises without
any abatement or adjustment of rental payments, the Lessor agrees
to make the proceeds available to the restoration or repair of
the improvements on the Leased Premises in accordance with the
provisions of paragraph 3 hereof.
ARTICLE XIV
MANDATORY PUT UPON DEFAULT
Should Lessee commit an event of Default under this Agreement or
any Development Financing Document (after the expiration of any
applicable notice and cure period) ("Uncured Default"), Lessor
shall have the following rights:
Upon an Uncured Default, or damage or destruction or condemnation
of the Leased Premises not addressed by paragraph XIII (4), if
Lessor elects to exercise the following option, Lessee shall
purchase the Leased Premises from Lessor subject to the following
terms and conditions:
A. The purchase price at which Lessor
shall sell the Leased Premises to Lessee, shall be the total
amount of Initial Disbursed Funds disbursed by Lessor to
acquire the Leased Premises at the Closing Date (as defined
in the Commitment), plus the total amount of funds disbursed
pursuant to this Agreement, plus all accrued interest and
incurred expenses of Lessor fundable pursuant to this
Agreement, plus all reasonable costs of collection and
enforcement of the terms hereof.
B. At such time as Lessor shall elect
to sell the Leased Premises, Lessor shall give Lessee
written notice of its intent to exercise its option to sell
the Leased Premises to Lessee, including in such notice
Lessor's calculation of the Purchase Price through the
actual closing of the sale of the Leased Premises to Lessee
pursuant to the terms hereof (the "Sale Date"), which shall
be sixty days from such notice by Lessor. Lessee shall on
or before the Sale Date deliver the purchase price as set
forth in subparagraph (A) of this Article to Lessor. Upon
such delivery, which shall be preceded by ten (10) days
notice to Lessor, Lessor shall deliver to Lessee a warranty
deed and appropriate affidavits evidencing that Lessor
transfers the Leased Premises to Lessee subject to
restrictions, easements or other encumbrances upon title
existing as of the date of delivery, if any, except to the
extent, if any, placed of record or caused by Lessor. The
purchase price to be paid to Lessor shall be a net amount.
All expenses in connection with the transfer of the Leased
Premises, including, but not limited to appraisal fees,
title insurance, recording fees, documentary stamps,
conveyance tax, title evidence, and all other closing costs,
shall be paid by the Lessee. The purchase price shall be
paid by Lessee in cash to Lessor concurrently with the
conveyance of the Leased Premises by the Lessor to the
Lessee. If Lessor elects to sell the Leased Premises to
Lessee pursuant to the terms hereof, the Leased Premises
shall be conveyed by the Lessor to the Lessee "As Is".
If Lessee shall fail to pay the Purchase Price on or before the
Sale Date, Lessor may terminate the Lease, and sell the Leased
Premises to any third party purchaser. Lessor may then send
Lessee notice of the shortfall (the "Deficiency"), if any,
between the amount of the net proceeds received by Lessor in such
sale, and the total amount of Initial Disbursed Funds disbursed
by Lessor to acquire the Parcel at the Closing Date (as defined
in the Commitment), plus the total amount of funds disbursed
pursuant to this Agreement, plus all accrued interest and
incurred expenses of Lessor fundable pursuant to this Agreement,
plus all reasonable costs of collection and enforcement of the
terms hereof. Lessee shall immediately upon receipt of such
notice of Deficiency remit the amount of the Deficiency in good
funds to Lessor.
Lessor's rights under this Mandatory Put shall expire on the
Final Disbursement Date when the amendment to the Lease has been
executed by all parties as set forth in Article IX hereof.
ARTICLE XV
RENT, INTEREST, AND RENTAL MODIFICATION DATE
1. Rent shall be payable by Lessee and calculated as follows, on the
funds advanced by Lessor on the Closing Date for the purchase of
the land and related closing costs (the "Initial Disbursed
Funds"): Rent shall accrue in the amount of $10,797.43 per month
absent an uncured Default by Lessee; absent an uncured Default,
accrued rent during the period of construction of the
Improvements shall not be payable until the Final Disbursement
Date. Upon the occurrence of an uncured Default, all accrued
rent shall be immediately due and payable.

following the Rental Modification Date) in the amount of $
16,196.15 per month out of pocket. On the Final Disbursement
Date, absent an Uncured Default, Rent shall be adjusted and
documented by the lease amendment contemplated in Article IX
hereof and paid to Lessor as described in Article F. of the
Commitment.
2. Disbursed proceeds of the Development Financing shall accrue
interest at a rate of seven percent (7.0%) per annum, which
interest shall accrue unpaid unless advanced by Lessor to itself,
or Lessee shall default hereunder, which default shall remain
uncured after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure
period. However, one hundred and eighty days (180) from the date
hereof, (the "Rental Modification Date"), Lessee shall begin
making monthly payments of subsequently accruing interest at the
rate of 10.5% per annum out of pocket ("Out of Pocket Invoiced
Interest") within 5 days after invoice from Lessor.
3. Upon the occurrence of an event of default which remains
uncured after the expiration of applicable notice and cure
periods, disbursed proceeds of the Development Financing shall
accrue interest at a rate of Fifteen Percent (15.0%) per annum,
or the highest rate allowed by law, whichever is less, and the

Year thereafter, the annual Base Rent due and
payable shall increase by an amount equal to the
lesser of: a) Seven and 35/100 Percent (7.35%) of
the Base Rent payable for the immediately prior
Lease Year, or b) The "CPI-U Percentage Increase"
of the Base Rent payable for the prior Lease Year.
"CPI-U" shall mean the Consumer
Price Index for All Urban Consumers, (all items),
published by the United States Department of
Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) (1982-84
equal 100), U.S. Cities Average, or, in the event
said index ceases to be published, by any
successor index recommended as a substitute
therefor by the United States Government or a
comparable, nonpartisan substitute reasonably
designated by Lessor. If the BLS changes the base
reference period for the Price Index from 1982-
84=100, the CPI-U Percentage Increase shall be
determined with the use of such conversion formula
or table as may be published by the BLS.
The term "CPI-U Percentage
Increase" shall mean the percentage increase in
the CPI-U determined by reference to the increase,
if any, in the latest monthly CPI-U issued prior
to the first day of the Lease Year for which Base
Rent is being increased, over the CPI-U issued for
the same month in the third year prior (e.g., the
June CPI-U for the year 2000 over the June CPI-U
for the year 1998.) Said month's CPI-U shall be
used even though that CPI-U will not be for the
month in which the renewal term commences. In no
event shall the CPI-U Percentage Increase be less
than zero.
(C) Overdue Payments.
Lessee shall pay interest on all overdue payments of Rent or
other monetary amounts due hereunder at the rate of fifteen
percent (15%) per annum or the highest rate allowed by law,
whichever is less, accruing from the date such Rent or other
monetary amounts were properly due and payable.
ARTICLE 5. INSURANCE AND INDEMNITY
(A) Lessee shall, throughout the Term or Renewal Terms, if
any, of this Lease, at its own cost and expense, procure and
maintain insurance which covers the Leased Premises and
improvements against fire, wind, and storm damage (including
flood insurance if the Leased Premises is in a federally
designated flood prone area) and such other risks (including
earthquake insurance, if the Leased Premises is located in a
federally designated earthquake zone or in an ISO high risk
earthquake zone) as may be included in the broadest form of all
risk, extended coverage insurance as may, from time to time, be
available in amounts sufficient to prevent Lessor or Lessee from
becoming a co-insurer within the terms of the applicable
policies. In any event, the insurance shall not be less than one
hundred percent (100%) of the then insurable value, with such
commercially reasonable deductibles as Lessor may reasonably
require from time to time. Additionally, replacement cost
endorsements, vandalism endorsement, malicious mischief
endorsement, waiver of subrogation endorsement, waiver of co-
insurance or agreed amount endorsement (if available), and
Building Ordinance Compliance endorsement and Rent loss
endorsements (for a period of 90 days) must be obtained.
(B) Lessee agrees to place and maintain throughout the Term
or Renewal Terms, if any, of this Lease, at Lessee's own expense,
public liability insurance with respect to Lessee's use and
occupancy of said premises, including "Dram Shop" or liquor
liability insurance, if the same shall be or become available in
the State of Ohio, with initial limits of at least $1,000,000 per
occurrence/$3,000,000 general aggregate (inclusive of umbrella
coverage), or such additional amounts as Lessor shall reasonably
require from time to time.
(C) Lessee agrees to notify Lessor in writing if Lessee is
unable to procure all or some part of the aforesaid insurance.
In the event Lessee fails to provide all insurance required under
this Lease, Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation,
to procure such insurance on Lessee's behalf, following five (5)
business days written notice to Lessee of Lessor's intent to do
so (unless insurance then in place would during such period, or
already has, lapsed, in which case no notice need be given) and
Lessee may obtain such insurance during said five day period and
not then be in default hereunder. If Lessor shall obtain such
insurance, Lessee will then, within five (5) business days from
receiving written notice, pay Lessor the amount of the premiums
due or paid, together with interest thereon at the lesser of 15%
per annum or the highest rate allowable by law, which amount
shall be considered Rent payable by Lessee in addition to the
Rent defined at Article 4 hereof.
(D) All policies of insurance provided for or contemplated
by this Article can be under Lessee's blanket insurance coverage
and shall name Lessor, Lessor's corporate general partner, and
Robert P. Johnson, as the general partner of Lessor, and Lessee
as additional insured and loss payee, as their respective
interests (as landlord and lessee, respectively) may appear, and
shall provide that the policies cannot be canceled, terminated,
changed, or modified without thirty (30) days written notice to
the parties. In addition, all of such policies shall be in place
on or before the Occupancy Date and contain endorsements by the
respective insurance companies waiving all rights of subrogation,
if any, against Lessor. All insurance companies providing
coverages must be rated "A" or better by Best's Key Rating Guide
(the most current edition), or similar quality under a successor
guide if Best's Key Rating shall cease to be published. Lessee
shall maintain legible copies of any and all policies and
endorsements required herein, to be made available for Lessor's
review and photocopy upon Lessor's reasonable request from time
to time. On the Occupancy Date and no less than fifteen (15)
business days prior to expiration of such policies, Lessee shall
provide Lessor with legible copies of any and all renewal
Certificates of Insurance reflecting the above terms of the
Policies (including endorsements). Lessee agrees that it will
not settle any property insurance claims affecting the Leased
Premises in excess of $25,000 without Lessor's prior written
consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Lessor shall consent to any settlement of an insurance claim
wherein Lessee shall confirm in writing with evidence reasonably
satisfactory to Lessor that Lessee has sufficient funds available
to complete the rebuilding of the Premises.
(E) Lessee shall defend, indemnify, and hold Lessor
harmless against any and all claims, damages, and lawsuits
arising after the Occupancy Date of this Lease and any orders,
decrees or judgments which may be entered therein, brought for
damages or alleged damages resulting from any injury to person or
property or from loss of life sustained in or about the Leased
Premises, unless such damage or injury results from the
intentional misconduct or the gross negligence of Lessor and
Lessee agrees to save Lessor harmless from, and indemnify Lessor
against, any and all injury, loss, or damage, of whatever nature,
to any person or property caused by, or resulting from any act,
omission, or negligence of Lessee or any employee or agent of
Lessee. In addition, Lessee hereby releases Lessor from any and
all liability for any loss or damage caused by fire or any of the
extended coverage casualties, unless such fire or other casualty
shall be brought about by the intentional misconduct or
negligence of Lessor. In the event of any loss, damage, or
injury caused by the joint negligence or willful misconduct of
Lessor and Lessee, they shall be liable therefor in accordance
with their respective degrees of fault.
(F) Lessor hereby waives any and all rights that it may
have to recover from Lessee damages for any loss occurring to the
Leased Premises by reason of any act or omission of Lessee;
provided, however, that this waiver is limited to those losses
for which Lessor is compensated by its insurers, if the insurance
required by this Lease is maintained. Lessee hereby waives any
and all right that it may have to recover from Lessor damages for
any loss occurring to the Leased Premises by reason of any act or
omission of Lessor; provided, however, that this waiver is
limited to those losses for which Lessee is, or should be if the
insurance required herein is maintained, compensated by its
insurers.
ARTICLE 6. TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND UTILITIES
(A) Lessee shall be liable and agrees to pay the charges
for all public utility services rendered or furnished to the
Leased Premises, including heat, water, gas, electricity, sewer,
sewage treatment facilities and the like, all personal property
taxes, real estate taxes, special assessments, and municipal or
government charges, general, ordinary and extraordinary, of every
kind and nature whatsoever, which may be levied, imposed, or
assessed against the Leased Premises, or upon any improvements
thereon, at any time after the Occupancy Date of this Lease for
the period prior to the expiration of the term hereof, or any
Renewal Term, if exercised.
(B) Lessee shall pay all real estate taxes, assessments for
public improvements or benefits, and other governmental
impositions, duties, and charges of every kind and nature
whatsoever which shall or may, during the term of this Lease, be
charged, laid, levied, assessed, or imposed upon, or become a
lien or liens upon the Leased Premises or any part thereof. Such
payments shall be considered as Rent paid by Lessee in addition
to the Rent defined at Article 4 hereof. If due to a change in
the method of taxation, a franchise tax, Rent tax, or income or
profit tax shall be levied against Lessor in substitution for or
in lieu of any tax which would otherwise constitute a real estate
tax, such tax shall be deemed a real estate tax for the purposes
herein and shall be paid by Lessee; otherwise Lessee shall not be
liable for any such tax levied against Lessor.
(C) All real estate taxes, assessments for public
improvements or benefits, water rates and charges, sewer rents,
and other governmental impositions, duties, and charges which
shall become payable for the first and last tax years of the term
hereof shall be apportioned pro rata between Lessor and Lessee in
accordance with the respective number of months during which each
party shall be in possession of the Leased Premises (or through
the expiration of the term hereof, if longer) in said respective
tax years. Lessee shall pay within 60 days of the expiration of
the term hereof Lessor's reasonable estimate of Lessee's pro-rata
share of real estate taxes for the last tax year of the term
hereof, based upon the last available tax bill. Lessor shall
give Lessee notice of such estimated pro-rata real estate taxes
no later than 75 days from the end of the term hereof. Upon
receipt of the actual statement of real estate taxes for such
prorated period, Lessor shall either refund to Lessee any over
payment of the pro-rata Lessee obligation, or shall assess and
Lessee shall pay promptly upon notice any remaining portion of
the Lessee's pro-rata obligation for such real estate taxes.
(D) Lessee shall have the right to contest or review by
legal proceedings or in such other manner as may be legal (which,
if instituted, shall be conducted solely at Lessee's own expense)
any tax, assessment for public improvements or benefits, or other
governmental imposition aforementioned, upon condition that,
before instituting such proceeding Lessee shall pay (under
protest) such tax or assessments for public improvements or
benefits, or other governmental imposition, duties and charges
aforementioned, unless such payment would act as a bar to such
contest or interfere materially with the prosecution thereof and
in such event Lessee shall post with Lessor alternative security
reasonably satisfactory to Lessor. All such proceedings shall be
begun as soon as reasonably possible after the imposition or
assessment of any contested items and shall be prosecuted to
final adjudication with reasonable dispatch. In the event of any
reduction, cancellation, or discharge, Lessee shall pay the
amount that shall be finally levied or assessed against the
Leased Premises or adjudicated to be due and payable, and, if
there shall be any refund payable by the governmental authority
with respect thereto, if Lessee has paid the expense of Lessor in
such proceedings, Lessee shall be entitled to receive and retain
the refund, subject, however, to apportionment as provided during
the first and last years of the term of this Lease.
(E) Lessor, within sixty (60) days after notice to Lessee
if Lessee fails to commence such proceedings, may, but shall not
be obligated to, contest or review by legal proceedings, or in
such other manner as may be legal, and at Lessor's own expense,
any tax, assessments for public improvements and benefits, or
other governmental imposition aforementioned, which shall not be
contested or reviewed, as aforesaid, by Lessee, and unless Lessee
shall promptly join with Lessor in such contest or review, Lessor
shall be entitled to receive and retain any refund payable by the
governmental authority with respect thereto.
(F) Lessor shall not be required to join in any proceeding
referred to in this Article, unless in Lessee's reasonable
opinion, the provisions of any law, rule, or regulation at the
time in effect shall require that such a proceeding be brought by
and/or in the name of Lessor, in which event Lessor shall upon
written request, join in such proceedings or permit the same to
be brought in its name, all at no cost or expense to Lessor.
(G) Within thirty (30) days after Lessor notifies Lessee in
writing that Lessor has paid such amount, Lessee shall also pay
to Lessor, as additional Rent, the amount of any sales tax,
franchise tax, excise tax, on Rents imposed by the State where
the Leased Premises are located. At Lessor's option, Lessee
shall deposit with Lessor on the first day of each and every
month during the term hereof, an amount equal to one-twelfth
(1/12) of any estimated sales tax payable to the State in which
the property is situated for Rent received by Lessor hereunder
("Deposit"). From time to time out of such Deposit Lessor will
pay the sales tax to the State in which the property is situated
as required by law. In the event the Deposit on hand shall not
be sufficient to pay said tax when the same shall become due from
time to time, or the prior payments shall be less than the
current estimated monthly amounts, then Lessee shall pay to
Lessor on demand any amount necessary to make up the deficiency.
The excess of any such Deposit shall be credited to subsequent
payments to be made for such items. If a default or an event of
default shall occur under the terms of this Lease, Lessor may, at
its option, without being required so to do, apply any Deposit on
hand to cure such default, in such order and manner as Lessor may
elect.
ARTICLE 7. PROHIBITION ON ASSIGNMENTS AND SUBLETTING; TAKE-BACK
RIGHTS
(A) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Article,
Lessee shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of
Lessor, in each instance:
1. assign or otherwise transfer this
Lease, or any part of Lessee's right, title or
interest therein;
2. sublet all or any part of the
Leased Premises or allow all or any part of the
Leased Premises to be used or occupied by any
other Persons (herein defined as a Party other
than Lessee, be it a corporation, a partnership,
an individual or other entity); or
3. mortgage, pledge or otherwise
encumber this Lease, or the Leased Premises.
(B) For the purposes of this Article:
1. the transfer of voting control of
any class of capital stock of any corporate Lessee
or sublessee, or the transfer voting control of
the total interest in any other person which is a
Lessee or sublessee, however accomplished, whether
in a single transaction or in a series of related
or unrelated transactions, shall be deemed an
assignment of this Lease, or of such sublease, as
the case may be;
2. an agreement by any other Person,
directly or indirectly, to assume Lessee's
obligations under this Lease shall be deemed an
assignment;
3. any Person to whom Lessee's
interest under this Lease passes by operation of
law, or otherwise, shall be bound by the
provisions of this Article;
4. each material modification,
amendment or extension or any sublease to which
Lessor has previously consented shall be deemed a
new sublease; and
5. Lessee shall present the signed
consent to such assignment and/or subletting from
any guarantors of this Lease, such consent to be
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Lessor.
Lessee agrees to furnish to Lessor within five (5) business
days following demand at any time such information and assurances
as Lessor may reasonably request that neither Lessee, nor any
previously permitted sublessee or assignee, has violated the
provisions of this Article.
(C) If Lessee agrees to assign this Lease or to sublet all
or any portion of the Leased Premises, Lessee shall, prior to the
effective date thereof (the "Effective Date"), deliver to Lessor
executed counterparts of any such agreement and of all ancillary
agreements with the proposed assignee or sublessee, as
applicable. If Lessee shall fail to do so, and shall have
surrendered possession of the Leased Premises in violation of its
duty of prior notice and failed to obtain Lessor's prior consent
(if and where required herein), and, if in such event, Lessor in
its sole discretion (except as otherwise specifically limited
herein) shall not consent to a proposed sublease or assignment,
Lessor shall then have all of the following rights, any of which
Lessor may exercise by written notice to Lessee given within
thirty (30) days after Lessor receives the aforementioned
documents:
1. with respect to a proposed
assignment of this Lease, the right to terminate
this Lease on the Effective Date as if it were the
Expiration Date of this Lease;
2. with respect to a proposed
subletting of the entire Leased Premises, the
right to terminate this Lease on the Effective
Date as if it were the Expiration Date; or
3. with respect to a proposed
subletting of less than the entire Leased
Premises, the right to terminate this Lease as to
the portion of the Leased Premises affected by
such subletting on the Effective Date, as if it
were the Expiration Date, in which case Lessee
shall promptly execute and deliver to Lessor an
appropriate modification of this Lease in form
satisfactory to Lessor in all respects.
4. with respect to a proposed
subletting or proposed assignment of this Lease,
impose such conditions upon Lessor's consent as
Lessor shall determine in its sole discretion.
(D) If Lessor exercises any of its options under Article
7(C) above, (and if Lessor shall impose conditions upon its
consent and Lessee shall fail to meet any conditions Lessor may
impose upon its consent), Lessor may then lease the Leased
Premises or any portion thereof to Lessee's proposed assignee or
sublessee, as the case may be, without liability whatsoever to
Lessee.
(E) Notwithstanding anything above to the contrary, Lessor
agrees to consent to any assignment or sublease all or any
portion of the Lessee's interests herein to Unique Casual
Restaurants, Inc., or a franchisee or licensee in good standing
of Champps Entertainment Inc, for the Champps restaurant concept,
provided Lessor is given prior written notice of such sublease or
assignment, accompanied by a copy of such sublease or assignment,
and the consents of Lessee and Guarantors (such consent to be in
form and substance satisfactory to Lessor) to such assignment or
sublet, affirming their continued liability hereunder (or under
their guaranty, respectively).
Lessor agrees that its consent to any other proposed
assignment or sublet shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed, provided Lessor is given prior written notice of such
sublease or assignment, accompanied by a copy of such sublease or
assignment, and the consents of Lessee and Guarantors (such
consent to be in form and substance satisfactory to Lessor) to
such assignment or sublet, affirming their continued liability
hereunder (or under their guaranty, respectively).
(F) Notwithstanding anything above to the contrary, the
Lessee's interest herein shall not be assignable in any manner in
accordance with the terms hereof unless and until the termination
of the Development Financing Agreement as set forth in Article 35
hereof.
ARTICLE 8. REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE
(A) Lessee covenants and agrees to keep and maintain in
good order, condition and repair the interior and exterior of the
Leased Premises during the term of the Lease, or any renewal
terms, and further agrees that Lessor shall be under no
obligation to make any repairs or perform any maintenance to the
Leased Premises. Lessee covenants and agrees that it shall be
responsible for all repairs, alterations, replacements, or
maintenance of, including but without limitation to or of: The
interior and exterior portions of all doors; door checks and
operators; windows; plate glass; plumbing; water and sewage
facilities; fixtures; electrical equipment; interior walls;
ceilings; signs; roof; structure; interior building appliances
and similar equipment; heating and air conditioning equipment;
and any equipment owned by Lessor and leased to Lessee hereunder,
as itemized on Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein
by reference; and further agrees to replace any of said equipment
when necessary. Lessee further agrees to be responsible for, at
its own expense, snow removal, lawn maintenance, landscaping,
maintenance of the parking lot (including parking lines, seal
coating, and blacktop surfacing), and other similar items.
(B) If Lessee refuses or neglects to commence or complete
repairs promptly and adequately, after prior written notice as
required under Article 16(B) (except in cases of emergency to
prevent waste or preserve the safety and integrity of the Leased
Premises, in which case no notice need be given), Lessor may
cause such repairs to be made, but shall not be required to do
so, and Lessee shall pay the cost thereof to Lessor within five
(5) business days following demand. It is understood that Lessee
shall pay all expenses and maintenance and repair during the term
of this Lease. If Lessee is not then in default hereunder,
Lessee shall have the right to make repairs and improvements to
the Leased Premises without the consent of Lessor if such repairs
and improvements do not exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars
($50,000.00), provided such repairs or improvements do not affect
the structural integrity of the Leased Premises. Any repairs or
improvements in excess of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) or
affecting the structural integrity of the Leased Premises may be
done only with the prior written consent of Lessor, such consent
not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All alterations and
additions to the Leased Premises shall be made in accordance with
all applicable laws and shall remain for the benefit of Lessor,
except for Lessee's moveable trade fixtures. In the event of
making such alterations as herein provided, Lessee further agrees
to indemnify and save harmless Lessor from all expense, liens,
claims or damages to either persons or property or the Leased
Premises which may arise out of or result from the undertaking or
making of said repairs, improvements, alterations or additions,
or Lessee's failure to make said repairs, improvements,
alterations or additions.
ARTICLE 9. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS
Lessee will comply with all statutes, ordinances, rules,
orders, regulations and requirements of all federal, state, city
and local governments, and with all rules, orders and
regulations of the applicable Board of Fire Underwriters which
affect the use of the improvements. Lessee will comply with all
easements, restrictions, and covenants of record against or
affecting the Leased Premises and any franchise or license
agreements required for operation of the Leased Premises in
accordance with Article 14 hereof.
ARTICLE 10. SIGNS
Lessee shall have the right to install and maintain a sign
or signs advertising Lessee's business, provided that the signs
conform to law, and further provided that the sign or signs
conform specifically to the written requirements of the
appropriate governmental authorities.
ARTICLE 11. SUBORDINATION
(A) Lessor reserves the right and privilege to subject and
subordinate this Lease at all times to the lien of any mortgage
or mortgages now or hereafter placed upon Lessor's interest in
the Leased Premises and on the land and buildings of which said
premises are a part, or upon any buildings hereafter placed upon
the land of which the Leased Premises are a part, provided such
mortgagee shall execute its standard form, commercially
reasonable subordination, attornment and non-disturbance
agreement. Lessor also reserves the right and privilege to
subject and subordinate this Lease at all times to any and all
advances to be made under such mortgages, and all renewals,
modifications, extensions, consolidations, and replacements
thereof, provided such mortgagee shall execute its standard form,
commercially reasonable subordination, attornment and non-
disturbance agreement.
(B) Lessee covenants and agrees to execute and deliver,
upon demand, such further instrument or instruments subordinating
this Lease on the foregoing basis to the lien of any such
mortgage or mortgages as shall be desired by Lessor and any
proposed mortgagee or proposed mortgagees, provided such
mortgagee shall execute its standard form, commercially
reasonable subordination, attornment and non-disturbance
agreement.
ARTICLE l2. CONDEMNATION OR EMINENT DOMAIN
(A) If the whole of the Leased Premises are taken by any
public authority under the power of eminent domain, or by private
purchase in lieu thereof, then this Lease shall automatically
terminate upon the date possession is surrendered, and Rent shall
be paid up to that day. If any part of the Leased Premises shall
be so taken as to render the remainder thereof materially
unusable in the opinion of a licensed third party arbitrator
reasonably approved by Lessor and Lessee, for the purposes for
which the Leased Premises were leased, then Lessor and Lessee
shall each have the right to terminate this Lease on thirty (30)
days notice to the other given within ninety (90) days after the
date of such taking. In the event that this Lease shall
terminate or be terminated, the Rent shall, if and as necessary,
be paid up to the day that possession was surrendered.
(B) If any part of the Leased Premises shall be so taken
such that it does not materially interfere with the business of
Lessee, then Lessee shall, with the use of the condemnation
proceeds to be made available by Lessor, but otherwise at
Lessee's own cost and expense, restore the remaining portion of
the Leased Premises to the extent necessary to render it
reasonably suitable for the purposes for which it was leased.
Lessee shall make all repairs to the building in which the Leased
Premises is located to the extent necessary to constitute the
building a complete architectural unit. Provided, however, that
such work shall not exceed the scope of the work required to be
done by Lessee in originally constructing such building unless
Lessee shall demonstrate to Lessor's reasonable satisfaction the
availability of funds to complete such work. Provided, further,
the cost thereof to Lessor shall not exceed the proceeds of its
condemnation award, all to be done without any adjustments in
Rent to be paid by Lessee. This lease shall be deemed amended to
reflect the taking in the legal description of the Leased
Premises.
(C) All compensation awarded or paid upon such total or
partial taking of the Leased Premises shall belong to and be the
property of Lessor without any participation by Lessee, whether
such damages shall be awarded as compensation for diminution in
value to the leasehold or to the fee of the premises herein
leased. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude
Lessee from prosecuting any claim directly against the condemning
authority in such proceedings for: Loss of business; damage to
or loss of value or cost of removal of inventory, trade fixtures,
furniture, and other personal property belonging to Lessee;
provided, however, that no such claim shall diminish or otherwise
adversely affect Lessor's award or the award of any fee
mortgagee.
ARTICLE 13. RIGHT TO INSPECT
Lessor reserves the right to enter upon, inspect and examine
the Leased Premises at any time during business hours, after
reasonable notice to Lessee, and Lessee agrees to allow Lessor
free access to the Leased Premises to show the premises. Upon
default by Lessee or at any time within ninety (90) days of the
expiration or termination of the Lease, Lessee agrees to allow
Lessor to then place "For Sale" or "For Rent" signs on the Leased
Premises. Lessor and Lessor's representatives shall at all times
while upon or about the Leased Premises observe and comply with
Lessee's reasonable health and safety rules, regulations,
policies and procedures. Lessor agrees to indemnify and hold
Lessee, its successors, assigns, agents and employees from and
against any liability, claims, demands, cause of action, suits
and other litigation or judgements of every kind and character,
including injury to or death of any person or persons, or
trespass to, or damage to, or loss or destruction of, any
property, whether real or personal, to the extent resulting from
the negligence or willful misconduct or Lessor or Lessor's
representatives while upon or about the Leased Premises.
ARTICLE 14. EXCLUSIVE USE
(A) After the Occupancy Date, Lessee expressly agrees and
warrants that the Leased Premises will be used exclusively as a
Champps Restaurant or other casual dining sit-down restaurant.
In any other such case, after obtaining Lessor's prior written
consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed,
Lessee may conduct any lawful business from the Leased Premises.
Lessee acknowledges and agrees that any other use without the
prior written consent of Lessor will constitute a default under
and a violation and breach of this Lease. Lessee agrees: To
open for business within a reasonable period of time after
completion of construction of the contemplated Improvements; to
operate all of the Leased Premises during the Term or Renewal
Terms during regular and customary hours for businesses similar
to the permitted exclusive use stated herein, unless prevented
from doing so by causes beyond Lessee's control or due to
remodeling; and to conduct its business in a professional and
reputable manner.
(B) If the Leased Premises are not operated as a Champps
Restaurant or other casual dining sit-down restaurant or other
permitted use hereunder, or remain closed for thirty (30)
consecutive days (unless such closure results from reasons beyond
Lessee's reasonable control) and in the event Lessee fails to pay
Rent when due or fulfill any other obligation hereunder, then
Lessee shall be in default hereunder and Lessor may, at its
option, cancel this Lease by giving written notice to Lessee or
exercise any other right or remedy that Lessor may have;
provided, however, that closings shall be reasonably permitted
for replacement of trade fixtures or during periods of repair
after destruction or due to remodeling.
ARTICLE 15. DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES
If, during the term of this Lease, the Leased Premises are
totally or partially destroyed by fire or other elements, within
a reasonable time (but in no event longer than one hundred eighty
(180) days and subject to the provisions herein below), Lessee
shall repair and restore the improvements so damaged or destroyed
as nearly as may be practical to their condition immediately
prior to such casualty. All rents payable by Lessee shall be
abated during the period of repair and restoration to the extent
that Lessor shall be compensated by the proceeds of the rent loss
insurance required to be maintained by Lessee hereunder.
Provided Lessee is not in default hereunder (and retains
according to the terms hereof the right to rebuild) with the
Lessor's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, Lessee shall have the right to
promptly and in good faith settle and adjust any claim under such
insurance policies with the insurance company or companies on the
amounts to be paid upon the loss. The insurance proceeds shall
be used to reimburse Lessee for the cost of rebuilding or
restoration of the Leased Premises. Risk that the insurance
company shall be insolvent or shall refuse to make insurance
proceeds available shall be with Lessee. The Leased Premises
shall be so restored or rebuilt so as to be of at least equal
value and substantially the same character as prior to such
damage or destruction. If the insurance proceeds are less than
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), they shall be paid to Lessee
for such repair and restoration. If the insurance proceeds are
greater than or equal to Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), they
shall be deposited by Lessee and Lessor into a customary
construction escrow at a nationally recognized title insurance
company, or at Lessee's option, with Lessor ("Escrowee") and
shall be made available from time to time to Lessee for such
repair and restoration. Such proceeds shall be disbursed in
conformity with the terms and conditions of a commercially
reasonable construction loan agreement. Lessee shall, in either
instance, deliver to Lessor or Escrowee (as the case may be)
satisfactory evidence of the estimated cost of completion
together with such architect's certificates, waivers of lien,
contractor's sworn statements and other evidence of cost and of
payments as the Lessor or Escrowee may reasonably require and
approve. If the estimated cost of the work exceeds One Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($100,000), all plans and specifications for
such rebuilding or restoration shall be subject to the reasonable
approval of Lessor.
Any insurance proceeds remaining with Escrowee after the
completion of the repair or restoration shall be paid to Lessor
to reduce the sum of monies expended by Lessor to acquire its
interest in the Lease Premises and rent hereunder shall be
reduced by 10.5% of such amount.
If the proceeds from the insurance are insufficient, after
review of the bids for completion of such improvements, or should
become insufficient during the course of construction, to pay for
the total cost of repair or restoration, Lessee shall, prior to
commencement of work, demonstrate to Escrowee and Lessor's
reasonable satisfaction, the availability of such funds necessary
to completion construction and Lessee shall deposit the same with
Escrowee for disbursement under the construction escrow
agreement.
Provided, further, that should the Leased Premises be
damaged or destroyed to the extent of fifty (50%) percent of its
value or such that Lessee cannot carry on business as a casual
dining restaurant without (in the opinion of a licensed third
party architect reasonably approved by Lessor and Lessee) being
closed for more than sixty (60) days (which duration of closure
may be established by Lessee by the affidavit of the approved
independent third party architect as to the estimated time of
repair) during the last two (2) years of the remaining term of
this Lease or any of the option terms of this Lease, if any
further options to renew remain, Lessee may elect within 30 days
of such damage, to then exercise at least one (1) option to renew
this Lease so that the remaining term of the Lease is not less
than five (5) years in order to be entitled to such insurance
proceeds for restoration or rebuilding. Absent such election,
this Lease shall terminate upon Lessor's receipt of funds at
least equal to the estimated cost of such repair or restoration.
ARTICLE 16. ACTS OF DEFAULT
Each of the following shall be deemed a default by Lessee
and a breach of this Lease:
(A) Failure to pay the Rent or any
monetary obligation herein reserved, or any part
thereof when the same shall be due and payable.
Interest and late charges for failure to pay Rent
when due shall accrue from the first date such
Rent was due and payable; provided, however,
Lessee shall have five (5) business days after
written notice from Lessor within which to cure
the failure to pay the Rent or any monetary
obligation herein reserved.
(B) Failure to do, observe, keep and
perform any of the other terms, covenants,
conditions, agreements and provisions in this
Lease to be done, observed, kept and performed by
Lessee; provided, however, that Lessee shall have
Thirty (30) days after written notice from Lessor
within which to cure such default, or such longer
time as may be reasonably necessary if such
default cannot reasonably be cured within Thirty
(30) days, if Lessee is diligently pursuing a
course of conduct that in Lessor's reasonable
opinion is capable of curing such default, but in
any event such longer time shall not exceed 120
days after written notice from Lessor of the
default hereunder.
(C) The abandonment of the premises by
Lessee, the adjudication of Lessee as a bankrupt,
the making by Lessee of a general assignment for
the benefit of creditors, the taking by Lessee of
the benefit of any insolvency act or law, the
appointment of a permanent receiver or trustee in
bankruptcy for Lessee property, or the appointment
of a temporary receiver which is not vacated or
set aside within sixty (60) days from the date of
such appointment; provided, however, that the
foregoing shall not constitute events of default
so long as Lessee continues to otherwise satisfy
its obligations (including but not limited to the
payment of Rent) hereunder.
ARTICLE 17. TERMINATION FOR DEFAULT
In the event of any uncured default by Lessee and at any
time thereafter, Lessor may serve a written notice upon Lessee
that Lessor elects to terminate this Lease. This Lease shall
then terminate on the date so specified as if that date had been
originally fixed as the expiration date of the term herein
granted, provided, however, that Lessee shall have continuing
liability for future rents for the remainder of the original term
and any exercised renewal term as set forth in Article 19,
notwithstanding any earlier termination of the Lease hereunder
(except where Lessee has exercised a right to terminate where
granted herein), preserving unto Lessor the benefit of its
bargained-for rental payments.
ARTICLE 18. LESSOR'S RIGHT OF RE-ENTRY
In the event that this Lease shall be terminated as
hereinbefore provided, or by summary proceedings or otherwise, or
in the event of an uncured default hereunder by Lessee, or in the
event that the premises or any part thereof, shall be abandoned
by Lessee and Rent shall not be paid or other obligations
(including but not limited to repair and maintenance obligations)
of Lessee hereunder shall not be met, then Lessor or its agents,
servants or representatives, may immediately or at any time
thereafter, re-enter and resume possession of the premises or any
part thereof, and remove all persons and property therefrom,
either by summary dispossess proceedings or by a suitable action
or proceeding at law, or by force or otherwise without being
liable for any damages therefor, except for damages resulting
from Lessor's negligence or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding
anything above to the contrary, if Lessee is still in possession
of the Leased Premises, Lessor agrees to use such legal
proceedings (summary or otherwise) prescribed by law to regain
possession of the Leased Premises.
ARTICLE 19. LESSEE'S CONTINUING LIABILITY
(A) Should Lessor elect to re-enter as provided in this
Lease or should it take possession pursuant to legal proceedings
or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, Lessor shall
undertake commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate Lessee's
continuing liability hereunder as such efforts may be prescribed
by law or statute (which shall include listing the Leased
Premises with a licensed commercial real estate broker and
securing the property against waste, but shall not otherwise
include the expenditure of Lessor's funds, unless the same be
required by law or statute), and in addition, Lessor may either
(i) terminate this Lease or (ii) it may from time to time,
without terminating the contractual obligation of Lessee to pay
Rent under this Lease, make such alterations and repairs as may
be necessary to relet the Leased Premises or any part thereof for
the remainder of the original Term or any exercised Renewal
Terms, at such Rent or Rents, and upon such other terms and
conditions as Lessor in its sole discretion may deem advisable.
Termination of Lessee's right to possession by Court Order shall
be sufficient evidence of the termination of Lessee's possessory
rights under this Lease, and the filing of such an Order shall be
notice of the termination of Lessee's Right of First Refusal as
set forth in any Memorandum of Lease of record.
(B) Upon each such reletting, without termination of the
contractual obligation of Lessee to pay Rent under this Lease,
all Rents received by Lessor shall be applied as follows:
1. First, to the payment of any
indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from
Lessee to Lessor;
2. Second, to the payment of any costs
and expenses of such reletting, including
brokerage fees and attorney's fees and of costs of
such alterations and repairs;
3. Third, to the payment of Rent and
other monetary obligations due and unpaid
hereunder;
4. Finally, the residue, if any, shall
be held by Lessor and applied in payment of future
Rent as the same may become due and payable
hereunder.
If such Rents received from such reletting during any month are
less than that to be paid during that month by Lessee hereunder,
Lessee shall pay any such deficiency to Lessor. Such deficiency
shall be calculated and paid monthly. No such re-entry or taking
possession of such Leased Premises by Lessor shall be construed
as an election on its part to terminate Lessee's contractual
obligations under this Lease respecting the payment of rent and
obligations for the costs of repair and maintenance unless a
written notice of such intention be given to Lessee.
(C) Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination,
Lessor may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease
for any uncured breach.
(D) In addition to any other remedies Lessor may have with
this Article 19, Lessor may recover from Lessee all damages it
may incur by reason of any uncured breach, including: The cost
of recovering and reletting the Leased Premises; reasonable
attorney's fees; and, the present value (discounted at a rate of
8% per annum) of the excess of the amount of Rent and charges
equivalent to Rent reserved in this Lease for the remainder of
the Term over the then reasonable Rent value of the Leased
Premises (or the actual Rents receivable by Lessor, if relet),
(the Lessee bearing the burden of proof to demonstrate the amount
of rental loss for the same period, that through reasonable
efforts to mitigate damages, could have been avoided) for the
remainder of the Term, all of which amounts shall be immediately
due and payable from Lessee to Lessor in full. In the event that
the Rent obtained from such alternative or substitute tenant is
more than the Rent which Lessee is obligated to pay under this
Lease, then such excess shall be paid to Lessor provided that
Lessor shall credit such excess against the outstanding
obligations of Lessee due pursuant hereto, if any.
(E) It is the object and purpose of this Article 19 that
Lessor shall be kept whole and shall suffer no damage by way of
non-payment of Rent or by way of diminution in Rent. Lessee
waives and will waive all rights to trial by jury in any summary
proceedings or in any action brought to recover Rent herein which
may hereafter be instituted by Lessor against Lessee in respect
to the Leased Premises. Lessee hereby waives any rights of re-
entry it may have or any rights of redemption or rights to redeem
this Lease upon a termination of this Lease.
ARTICLE 20. PERSONALTY, FIXTURES AND EQUIPMENT
(A) All building fixtures, building machinery, and building
equipment used in connection with the operation of the Leased
Premises including, but not limited to, heating, electrical
wiring, lighting, ventilating, plumbing, walk-in
refrigerators/coolers, walk-in freezers, air conditioning
systems, and the equipment owned by Lessor and leased to Lessee
hereunder as specifically set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto
and incorporated herein by reference shall be the property of
Lessor. All other trade fixtures and all other articles of
personal property owned by Lessee shall remain the property of
Lessee.
(B) Lessee shall furnish and pay for any and all equipment,
furniture, trade fixtures, and signs, except for such items, if
any, described in Article 20(A) above, as owned by Lessor.
Lessee agrees that Lessor shall have a lien on all Lessee's
equipment, furniture, trade fixtures, furnishings, and signs as
security for the performance of and compliance with this Lease,
subject to the rights of any bona fide third party's security
interest in such property. Provided Lessee is not in default
hereunder, Lessor will agree that its interest in the personal
property of Lessee will be subordinated to financing which may
exist or which Lessee may cause to exist in the future on that
same personal property.
(C) At the end of the term of this Lease, the property
described at Article 20(B) above, after written notice to Lessor
given at least ten (10) business days prior to any proposed
removal, may be removed from the Leased Premises by Lessee
regardless of whether or not such property is attached to the
Leased Premises so as to constitute a "fixture" within the
meaning of the law; however, all damages and repairs to the
Leased Premises which may be caused by the removal of such
property shall be paid for by Lessee.
ARTICLE 21. LIENS
Lessee shall not do or cause anything to be done whereby the
Leased Premises may be encumbered by any mechanic's or other
liens. Whenever and as often as any mechanic's or other lien is
filed against said Leased Premises purporting to be for labor or
materials furnished or to be furnished to Lessee, Lessee shall
remove the lien of record by payment or by bonding with a surety
company authorized to do business in the state in which the
property is located, within forty-five (45) days from the date of
the filing of said mechanic's or other lien and delivery of
notice thereof to Lessee. Should Lessee fail to take the
foregoing steps within said forty-five (45) day period (or in any
event, prior to the expiration of the time within which Lessee
may bond over such lien to remove it as a lien upon the Leased
Premises), Lessor shall have the right, among other things, to
pay said lien without inquiring into the validity thereof, and
Lessee shall forthwith reimburse Lessor for the total expense
incurred by it in discharging said lien as additional Rent
hereunder.
ARTICLE 22. NO WAIVER BY LESSOR EXCEPT IN WRITING
No agreement to accept a surrender of the Leased Premises or
termination of this Lease shall be valid unless in writing signed
by Lessor. The delivery of keys to any employee of Lessor or
Lessor's agents shall not operate as a termination of the Lease
or a surrender of the premises. The failure of Lessor to seek
redress for violation of any rule or regulation, shall not
prevent a subsequent act, which would have originally constituted
a violation, from having all the force and effect of an original
violation. Neither payment by Lessee or receipt by Lessor of a
lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to
be other than on account of the earliest stipulated Rent. Nor
shall any endorsement or statement on any check nor any letter
accompanying any check or payment as Rent be deemed an accord and
satisfaction. Lessor may accept such check or payment without
prejudice to Lessor's right to recover the balance of such Rent
or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease. This Lease
contains the entire agreement between the parties, and any
executory agreement hereafter made shall be ineffective to change
it, modify it or discharge it, in whole or in part, unless such
executory agreement is in writing and signed by the party against
whom enforcement of the change, modification or discharge is
sought.
ARTICLE 23. QUIET ENJOYMENT
Lessor covenants that Lessee, upon paying the Rent set forth
in Article 4 and all other sums herein reserved as Rent and upon
the due performance of all the terms, covenants, conditions and
agreements herein contained on Lessee's part to be kept and
performed, shall have, hold and enjoy the Leased Premises free
from molestation, eviction, or disturbance by Lessor, or by any
other person or persons lawfully claiming the same, and that
Lessor has good right to make this Lease for the full term
granted, including renewal periods.
ARTICLE 24. BREACH - PAYMENT OF COSTS AND ATTORNEYS' FEES
Each party agrees to pay and discharge all reasonable costs,
and actual attorneys' fees, including but not limited to
attorney's fees incurred at the trial level and in any appellate
or bankruptcy proceeding, and expenses that shall be incurred by
the prevailing party in enforcing the covenants, conditions and
terms of this Lease or defending against an alleged breach,
including the costs of reletting. Such costs, attorneys fees,
and expenses if incurred by Lessor shall be considered as Rent as
due and owing in addition to any Rent defined in Article 4
hereof.
ARTICLE 25. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
Either party to this Lease will, at any time, upon not less
than ten (10) business days prior request by the other party,
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the requesting party a
statement in writing, executed by an executive officer of such
party, certifying that: (a) this Lease is unmodified (or if
modified then disclosure of such modification shall be made); (b)
this Lease is in full force and effect; (c) the date to which the
Rent and other charges have been paid; and (d) to the knowledge
of the signer of such certificate that the other party is not in
default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or
condition contained in this Lease, or if a default does exist,
specifying each such default of which the signer may have
knowledge. It is intended that any such statement delivered
pursuant to this Article may be relied upon by any prospective
purchaser or mortgagee of the Leased Premises or any assignee of
such mortgagee or a purchaser of the leasehold estate.
ARTICLE 26. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
During the term of this Lease, Lessee will, within ninety
(90) days after the end of Lessee's fiscal year, furnish its
financial statements to Lessor. Lessee's financial statements
shall include, at a minimum, a consolidated balance sheet and
statement of operations, and do not need to be prepared by an
independent certified public accountant, but shall be prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
(hereafter "GAAP") and be represented and warranted in writing as
true and correct by the chief financial officer or other
authorized officer of Lessee. Additionally, during the term of
the Lease, Lessee will within forty-five (45) days from the end
of each quarter of each fiscal year, furnish Lessor with Lessee's
financial statements and operating statements of the Leased
Premises for such quarter. Lessor shall have the right to
require such financial statements and operating statements on a
monthly basis after the occurrence of a default. Said quarterly
(or monthly, if requested by Lessor) statements do not need to be
prepared by an independent certified public accountant, but shall
be represented and warranted in writing as true and correct by
the chief financial officer or other authorized officer of
Lessee. The financial statements shall conform to GAAP, and
include, at a minimum, a balance sheet and statement of
operations.
ARTICLE 27. MORTGAGE
Lessee does hereby agree to make reasonable modifications of
this Lease requested by any Mortgagee of record from time to
time, provided such modifications are not substantial and do not
increase any of the Rents or obligations of Lessee under this
Lease or substantially modify any of the business elements of
this Lease.
ARTICLE 28. OPTION TO RENEW
If this Lease is not previously canceled or terminated and
if Lessee has materially complied with and performed all of the
covenants and conditions in this Lease after applicable cure
periods and is not currently in default, then Lessee shall have
the option to renew this Lease upon the same conditions and
covenants contained in this Lease for Three (3) consecutive
periods of Five (5) years each (singularly "Renewal Term"). Rent
during the Twenty-Second, Twenty-Fifth, Twenty-Eighth, Thirty-
First, and Thirty-Fourth Lease Year of the Renewal Term shall
increase by the lesser of Seven and Thirty-Five One Hundredths
Percent (7.35%) of the Rent payable for the preceding Lease Year,
or the CPI-U Percentage Increase, as defined in Article 4 hereof.
The first Renewal Term will commence on the day following
the date the original Term expires and successive Renewal Terms
would commence on the day following the last day of the then
expiring Renewal Term. Except as otherwise provided in Article
15 hereof, Lessee must give ninety (90) days written notice to
Lessor of its intent to exercise this option prior to the
expiration of the original Term of this Lease or any Renewal
Term, as the case may be.
ARTICLE 29. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
(A) All written notices shall be given to Lessor or Lessee
by certified mail or nationally recognized overnight mail.
Notices to either party shall be addressed to the person and
address given on the first page hereof. Lessor and Lessee may,
from time to time, change these addresses by notifying each other
of this change in writing. Notices of overdue Rent may be sent
to Lessee by regular, special delivery, or nationally recognized
overnight mail.
(B) The terms, conditions and covenants contained in this
Lease and any riders and plans attached hereto shall bind and
inure to the benefit of Lessor and Lessee and their respective
successors, heirs, legal representatives, and assigns.
(C) This Lease shall be governed by and construed under the
laws of the State where the Leased Premises are situate.
(D) In the event that any provision of this Lease shall be
held invalid or unenforceable, no other provisions of this Lease
shall be affected by such holding, and all of the remaining
provisions of this Lease shall continue in full force and effect
pursuant to the terms hereof.
(E) The Article captions are inserted only for convenience
and reference, and are not intended, in any way, to define,
limit, describe the scope, intent, and language of this Lease or
its provisions.
(F) In the event Lessee remains in possession of the
premises herein leased after the expiration of this Lease and
without the execution of a new lease and without Lessor's written
permission, Lessee shall be deemed to be occupying said premises
as a tenant from month-to-month, subject to all the conditions,
provisions, and obligations of this Lease insofar as the same can
be applicable to a month-to-month tenancy except that the monthly
installment of Rent shall be One Hundred Fifty percent (150%) the
amount due on the last month prior to such expiration.
(G) If any installment of Rent (whether lump sum, monthly
installments, or any other monetary amounts required by this
Lease to be paid by Lessee and deemed to constitute Rent
hereunder) shall not be paid when due, or non-monetary default
shall remain uncured after the expiration of any applicable cure
period, Lessor shall have the right to charge Lessee a late
charge of $250.00 per month for each month that any amount of
Rent installment remains unpaid or non-monetary default shall go
uncured after the first such occurrence in any 12 month period.
Said late charge shall commence after such installment is due or
non-monetary default goes uncured after the expiration of any
applicable cure period and continue until said installment,
interest and all accrued late charges are paid in full or such
non-monetary default is cured.
(H) Any part of the Leased Premises may be conveyed by
Lessor for private or public non-exclusive easement purposes at
any time, provided such easement does not interfere with the
access to the Leased Premises, visibility, or operations of the
business of Lessee. In such event Lessor shall, at its own cost
and expense, restore the remaining portion of the Leased Premises
to the extent necessary to render it reasonably suitable for the
purposes for which it was leased, all to be done without
adjustments in Rent to be paid by Lessee. All proceeds from any
conveyance of an easement shall belong solely to Lessor.
(I) For the purpose of this Lease, the term "Rent" shall be
defined as Rent under Article 4, and any other monetary amounts
required by this Lease to be paid by Lessee.
(J) Lessee agrees to cooperate with Lessor to allow Lessor
to obtain and use at Lessor's expense promotional photographs of
the Leased Premises, to the extent permitted by Lessee's
franchisor or licensor.
ARTICLE 30. REMEDIES
NON-EXCLUSIVITY. Notwithstanding anything contained herein
it is the intent of the parties that the rights and remedies
contained herein shall not be exclusive but rather shall be
cumulative along with all of the rights and remedies of the
parties which they may have at law or equity.
ARTICLE 31. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS INDEMNITY
Lessee covenants, represents and warrants to Lessor, its
successors and assigns, (i) that it has not used or permitted and
will not use or permit the Leased Premises to be used, whether
directly or through contractors, agents or tenants, and to the
best of Lessee's knowledge and except as disclosed to Lessor in
writing, the Leased Premises has not at any time been used for
the generating, transporting, treating, storage, manufacture,
emission of, or disposal of any dangerous, toxic or hazardous
pollutants, chemicals, wastes or substances as defined in the
Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and
Liability Act of 1980 ("CERCLA"), the Federal Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 ("RCRA"), or any other
federal, state or local environmental laws, statutes,
regulations, requirements and ordinances ("Hazardous Materials");
(ii) that there have been no investigations or reports involving
Lessee, or the Leased Premises by any governmental authority
which in any way pertain to Hazardous Materials (iii) that the
operation of the Leased Premises has not violated and is not
currently violating any federal, state or local law, regulation,
ordinance or requirement governing Hazardous Materials; (iv) that
the Leased Premises is not listed in the United States
Environmental Protection Agency's National Priorities List of
Hazardous Waste Sites nor any other list, schedule, log,
inventory or record of Hazardous Materials or hazardous waste
sites, whether maintained by the United States Government or any
state or local agency; and (v) that the Leased Premises will not
contain any formaldehyde, urea or asbestos, except as may have
been disclosed in writing to Lessor by Lessee at the time of
execution and delivery of this Lease. Lessee agrees to indemnify
and reimburse Lessor, its successors and assigns, for:
(a) any breach of these representations and warranties, and
(b) any loss, damage, expense or cost arising out
of or incurred by Lessor which is the result of a
breach of, misstatement of or misrepresentation of the
above covenants, representations and warranties, and
(c) any and all liability of any kind whatsoever
which Lessor may, for any cause and at any time,
sustain or incur by reason of Hazardous Materials
discovered on the Leased Premises during the term
hereof or placed or released on the Leased Premises by
Lessee;
together with all attorneys' fees, costs and disbursements
incurred in connection with the defense of any action against
Lessor arising out of the above. These covenants,
representations and warranties shall be deemed continuing
covenants, representations and warranties for the benefit of
Lessor, and any successors and assigns of Lessor and shall
survive expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. The
amount of all such indemnified loss, damage, expense or cost,
shall bear interest thereon at the lesser of 15% or the highest
rate of interest allowed by law and shall become immediately due
and payable in full on demand of Lessor, its successors and
assigns.
ARTICLE 32. ESCROWS
Upon a default by Lessee which is uncured after the
expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, or upon the
request of Lessor's Mortgagee, if any, Lessee shall deposit with
Lessor on the first day of each and every month, an amount equal
to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the estimated annual real estate
taxes, assessments and insurance (if the insurance is to be
purchased by Lessor) ("Charges") due on the Leased Premises, or
such higher amounts reasonably determined by Lessor as necessary
to accumulate such amounts to enable Lessor to pay all charges
due and owing at least thirty (30) days prior to the date such
amounts are due and payable. From time to time out of such
deposits Lessor will, upon the presentation to Lessor by Lessee
of the bills therefor, pay the Charges or at Lessee's option,
will upon presentation of receipted bills therefor, reimburse
Lessee for such payments made by Lessee. In the event the
deposits on hand shall not be sufficient to pay all of the
estimated Charges when the same shall become due from time to
time or the prior payments shall be less than the currently
estimated monthly amounts, then Lessee shall pay to Lessor on
demand any amount necessary to make up the deficiency. The
excess of any such deposits shall be credited to subsequent
payments to be made for such items. If a default or an event of
default shall occur under the terms of this Lease, Lessor may, at
its option, without being required so to do, apply any Deposit on
hand to cure the default, in such order and manner as Lessor may
elect.
ARTICLE 33. NET LEASE
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary it
is the intent of the parties hereto that this Lease shall be a
net lease and that the Rent defined pursuant to Article 4 should
be a net Rent paid to Lessor. Any and all other expenses
including but not limited to, maintenance, repair, insurance,
taxes, and assessments, shall be paid by Lessee.
ARTICLE 34. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
Lessor, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby gives
and grants to Lessee a right of first refusal (the "Right of
First Refusal") to purchase the Leased Premises, subject to the
following terms and conditions:
(A) Duration of Right of First Refusal. The Right of First
Refusal and all rights and privileges of Lessee hereunder shall
be in force for the term of this Lease until the expiration of
Lessee's right to possession.
(B) Manner of Exercising Right of First Refusal. If Lessor
("Selling Lessor") shall desire to sell all or any portion of its
interest in the Leased Premises (subject to the terms of this
Lease), Selling Lessor shall give Lessee written notice of
Selling Lessor's intention to sell Selling Lessor's interest
(partial or whole) in the Leased Premises. Such notice
("Lessor's Notice") shall give Selling Lessor's name and address
and state a price at which Selling Lessor intends to sell and
will sell a specified portion or all of its interest in the fee
simple to the Leased Premises. If Lessee shall fail to exercise
its Right of First Refusal as set forth herein, the terms of
Article 34(E) shall apply. For twenty (20) business days
following the giving of such notice, Lessee shall have the option
to purchase such portion of the fee interest of the Selling
Lessor as set forth in Lessor's Notice at the price in cash
stated in the Lessor's Notice. A written notice in substantially
the following form, addressed to Selling Lessor and signed by
Lessee and given, in accordance with the provisions of Article
29(A) hereof, within the period for exercising the Right of First
Refusal, submitted with a bank cashier's check or money order
payable to the order of Selling Lessor in the amount of $5,000.00
(the "Earnest Money") shall be an effective exercise of Lessee's
Right of First Refusal, to wit:
(date)
"We hereby exercise the Right of First Refusal to purchase such
portion of the fee interest of the Selling Lessor (as set forth
in Lessor's Notice) in the property commonly known as Champps,
Dayton, Ohio, pursuant to the Right of First Refusal contained in
that certain Net Lease Agreement between us pertaining to said
premises."
(C) Terms of Sale if Right of First Refusal Exercised.
Upon Lessee's exercise of the Right of First Refusal in
accordance with the provisions of subparagraph (B) hereof,
Selling Lessor shall be obligated to sell and convey by
recordable general warranty deed, good and indefeasible title to
its interest in the Leased Premises (or such portion thereof as
set forth in Lessor's Notice) subject only to the matters
affecting title which were of record at the time Selling Lessor
came into title to the Leased Premises and those matters which
Lessee created, suffered or permitted to accrue during the term
hereof, and Lessee shall be obligated to purchase such Lessor's
interest upon the following terms and conditions:
(i) Price. The price "Purchase Price" at which
Selling Lessor shall sell and Lessee shall purchase the
Leased Premises shall be the price stated in Lessor's
Notice.
(ii) Closing. Closing shall be sixty (60) days
after the expiration of the twenty days within which
Lessee may exercise its Right of First Refusal, unless
the parties mutually agree otherwise. The Purchase
Price less credit for the Earnest Money and any other
credits to which Lessee is entitled hereunder shall be
tendered in cash or other certified funds by Lessee at
Closing.
(iii) Evidence of Title. Not less than ten
(10) days prior to closing, Selling Lessor shall obtain
a commitment for an ALTA owner's policy of title
insurance dated within thirty (30) days of the closing
date, issued by a nationally recognized title insurance
company selected by Selling Lessor (the "Title
Company") in the amount of the Purchase Price
determined pursuant to subparagraph (C)(i) above,
naming Lessee as the proposed insured, and covering the
fee simple title to the Leased Premises, and showing
Selling Lessor vested with good title to portion of the
Leased Premises being sold, subject only to the matters
affecting title which were of record at the time
Selling Lessor came into title to the Leased Premises
and those matters which Lessee created, suffered or
permitted to accrue during the term hereof. Such title
commitment shall be conclusive evidence of good title.
