Rent. Immediately upon the Commencement Date, LESSEE shall pay to LESSOR the

PREMISES during periods when the School would otherwise be closed, as established annually
Lease Agreement/City of Miami/Lindsey Hopkins Technical College- DRAFT 4.15.15
Page 2 of 26
in the LESSOR'S official Elementary and Secondary School calendar. Prior to the start of the
Initial Term and each subsequent renewal term, LESSEE shall provide LESSOR or its designee
with a written list of the days LESSEE is requesting use of the DEMISED PREMISES, during
periods when the School would otherwise be closed ("Additional Days"). LESSEE may also
make additional requests for such use, from time to time and on an infrequent basis. LESSOR or
its designee shall review LESSEE'S request, and shall notify LESSEE as to which days, if any,

LESSEE's operation within the DEMISED PREMISES during the Additional Days ("Operating
Expenses"). Operating Expenses for the Initial Term shall be based on fiscal year 2014-2015

adjusted accordingly, with payments due as enumerated above.

and any subsequent renewal term, evaluate Operating Expenses actually incurred by LESSOR
during the subject term, and use said evaluation to establish Operating Expenses for any

Excess"), and said Operating Excess is no greater than five (5%) percent, LESSEE shall pay to

accompanied by a statement reasonably detailing the Operating Excess, prior to LESSEE
paying that portion of the Operating Excess greater than five (5%) percent.
Audit Rights; Overpayments. LESSEE shall have the right to audit, or cause to be
audited, LESSOR's records pertaining to Operating Expenses. Any overpayments discovered
in the course of such audit due to LESSOR's overbilling, or any overpayment discovered by
LESSOR's post -Term evaluations, shall be credited to LESSEE's account, and applied to
LESSEE'S next quarterly payment of Operating Expenses, or if no quarterly payment shall be
due, refunded to LESSEE within sixty (60) days following the discovery of said overpayment or

PREMISES due to unreasonable interference or violation of any applicable rules and
regulations or the LESSOR'S criteria, then LESSEE shall immediately discontinue its activities
at the DEMISED PREMISES, and shall proceed only after the LESSOR, or its designee, has

to continue.
LESSEE shall cause any Qualified Contractor doing work within the DEMISED

shall be an additional insured on all liability coverages except Workers' Compensation
Insurance. LESSEE'S Qualified Contractor(s) shall maintain such insurance at all times when
constructing the Work throughout the term of this Agreement.

Page 8 of 26
written request by the LESSOR, to defend any suit, action, or demand brought against the
LESSOR on any claim or demand arising out of, resulting from, or incidental to the Lessee
Contractor's performance under any contract by and between LESSEE and/or its assigns and any
and all contractors and subcontractors. This provision shall survive the expiration, cancellation or
early termination of this Agreement. Furthermore, LESSEE and/or its assigns shall cause the
indemnification provision and the duty to defend provision in its Contract with Lessee Contractors
to survive the cancellation, early termination, or expiration of any and all contracts by and between
LESSEE and/or its assigns and any Lessee Contractor.
If, as a result of LESSEE'S actions in the performance of the work, or failure to act,
portions of the DEMISED PREMISES or School are damaged, in the sole opinion of the
LESSOR, then the LESSEE shall repair and/or restore the damaged area, at its sole cost and
expense, to the same or better condition as existed prior to such action. LESSEE shall

LESSOR. In the event that LESSEE is unable to complete the repair work within said thirty (30)
day period, LESSEE shall provide the LESSOR with written notification stating the reasons,
together with a mutually agreed to schedule for the completion of the repairs. If LESSEE fails to
complete the repair work within the prescribed time frame, then the LESSOR, at its sole option,
shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make the necessary repairs, at LESSEE'S sole
cost and expense. LESSEE covenants and agrees that it shall reimburse the LESSOR for this
work within thirty (30) days of receipt from the LESSOR of an invoice for same, accompanied
by such documentation as may be reasonably required by LESSEE to substantiate the nature
and completeness of the work. Failure by LESSEE to reimburse the LESSOR shall be grounds
for placing LESSEE in default under this Agreement.

LESSEE or its agents, contractors, or invitees, resulting in a significant impact to operations or
the safety and well-being of the LESSOR'S students, staff, and visitors, and requiring

otherwise, so long as all protections and relevant provisions set forth in §255.05 are provided to
all persons defined in Florida Statutes §713.01 who furnish labor, services, or materials for the
prosecution of the Work provided for in the Agreement.
LESSEE shall not permit any liens to be filed or attached to the DEMISED PREMISES
for any reason whatsoever, including, but not limited to, as a result of the Work performed by
LESSEE pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that any such lien is recorded in the official
records of Miami -Dade County, Florida, LESSEE shall, within twenty (20) calendar days of the
date of such filing, cause such lien to be removed of record or properly transferred to a bond
under Chapter 713, Florida Statutes. In the event a notice of violation is issued by any
jurisdictional agency relating to the Work, said notice of violation shall be the sole responsibility
of LESSEE, and LESSEE shall cure said violation(s) within thirty (30) days of receipt thereof, at
LESSEE'S sole cost and expense. Should LESSEE fail to comply with this requirement, then
LESSOR may, by its own effort, cause such lien or other violations to be removed of record and
cured. LESSEE shall be liable to the LESSOR for all costs of such removal including, without
limitation, any and all reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and any other cost or expense
incurred or expended by the LESSOR.
It is expressly understood by the Parties that LESSEE shall not commence any of the
Work or construction activities within the DEMISED PREMISES or at or about the School site

LESSOR'S designee, verifying that the Work on the DEMISED PREMISES has been satisfactorily
and properly completed, and shall not release its Qualified Contractor from its contractual
obligations or make final payment to the Qualified Contractor until the LESSOR'S designee
attests to the satisfactory completion of the Work.
In the event that LESSEE or LESSEE'S Qualified Contractor do not complete the Work
within the DEMISED PREMISES, LESSEE covenants and agrees to restore the DEMISED
PREMISES, at LESSEE'S sole cost and expense, to the same or better condition existing prior
