C. Net Lease. This Lease, except as expressly provided herein, is and shall be construed as a "net lease," and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, throughout the Term of this Lease, the Rent without abatement, deduction or set-off (except as expressly provided in this Lease); all other charges described herein; and under no circumstances or conditions, whether now existing or hereafter arising, or whether or not beyond the present contemplation of the parties, shall Landlord be required to make any payment or provide any services of any kind whatsoever or be under any other obligation or liability except as expressly provided in this Lease. Landlord shall pay all taxes attributable to the Leased Premises and the Building. Tenant shall pay the insurance obligations as set forth in Section 7. There are no ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇.
D. Determining Rent. It is agreed by Landlord and Tenant that no rent for the use, occupancy or utilization of the Leased Premises shall be, or is, based in whole or in part on the net income or profits derived by any person from the Leased Premises, and Tenant further agrees that it will not enter into any sublease, license, concession or other agreement for any use, occupancy or utilization based in whole or in part on the net income or profits derived by any person from the Leased Premises so leased, used, occupied or utilized. Nothing in the foregoing sentence, however, shall be construed as permitting or constituting Landlord's approval of any sublease, license, concession, or other use, occupancy, or utilization agreement not otherwise approved by Landlord in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 hereof.
E. Security Deposit.
(1) The Tenant shall deposit with the Landlord the sum of $8,000.00 as a security and damage deposit, which total amount shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement, this sum can be used by landlord to offset any and all losses or costs associated with tenants failure to perform any of the conditions herein. Such amounts withheld may include attorney’s fees and/or court costs incurred as a result of a Tenant default.
(2) If Tenant is in default with respect to this Agreement, including but not limited to, the payment of Base or Additional Rent (additional rent is defined as late fees or court fees associated with Tenant default), Landlord may, at its option, use, apply or retain all or any part of this security deposit for the payment of any amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant’s default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant’s default, including attorney’s fees and costs incurred. Tenant’s failure to replace any amount so used within five (5) days from Landlord’s written demand, shall be a material breach of this Agreement. Landlord shall not be required to keep this security deposit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such deposit.
(3) Within sixty (60) days after termination of this Agreement or surrender and acceptance of the Leased Premises, whichever occurs last, Landlord shall return to Tenant the full security deposit or in the event that actual cause exists for retaining any portion of the security deposit, the Landlord shall provide the Tenant with a written statement listing the exact reasons for the retention of any portion of the security deposit. When the statement is delivered, it shall be accompanied by payment of the difference between any sum deposited and the amount retained. The Landlord is deemed to have complied with this Section by mailing said statement and any payment required to the last known address of the Tenant. Nothing in this Section shall preclude the Landlord from retaining the security deposit for nonpayment of rent, abandonment of the Leased Premises, or nonpayment of utility charges, build out costs, repair work, or cleaning contracted for by the Tenant.

(a) Transfer the funds, or any remainder after lawful deductions, to the Landlord's successor in interest and notify the Tenant by mail of such transfer and of the transferee's name and address; or
(b) Return the funds, or any remainder after lawful deductions, to the Tenant.
(4) Upon compliance with this subsection, the Landlord shall be relieved of further liability with respect to the security deposit.
(5) Upon receipt of transferred funds under this Section, the transferee, in relation to such funds, shall be deemed to have all of the rights and obligations of a Landlord holding the funds as a security deposit.

In the event any payment required hereunder is not made within ten (10) business days of the date due, a late charge in the amount of five hundred dollars ($500.00) shall be automatically charged to Tenant and due immediately. Acceptance of the late charge payment by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of its other rights and remedies granted by law or this Agreement.
4. BUILDING OPERATING COSTS.
A. Additional Landlord’s Rights. Landlord reserves the right from time to time without unreasonable interference with Tenant's use to install, use, maintain, repair and replace pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and appurtenant meters and equipment for service to other parts of the building in which the Leased Premises are located (“Building”) above the ceiling surfaces, below the floor surfaces, within the walls and in the central core areas, and to relocate any pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and appurtenant meters and equipment included in the Leased Premises which are located in the Leased Premises or located elsewhere outside the Leased Premises, and to expand the Building and to do and perform such other acts and make such other changes in, to or with respect to the Common Areas (“Common Areas” is defined as the back yard and parking lot) and Building as Landlord may, in the exercise of sound business judgment, deem to be appropriate.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Lease to the contrary, the Landlord acknowledges, agrees and understands that the Tenant and any Subtenant are operating a retail marijuana cultivation facility and/or medical marijuana optional premise cultivation facility (as that term may be defined or described under relevant Colorado law) and are entitled to possess, cultivate, distribute, transport, and/or acquire marijuana under applicable state law and Landlord hereby authorizes such use.

B. Tenant shall not use, handle, store or dispose of any oil (excluding oils derived from the marijuana plant), hazardous or toxic substances, materials or wastes (excluding marijuana) (collectively “Hazardous Materials”) in, under, on or about the Leased Premises except for such storage and use consented to by Landlord in advance which consent may be withheld in Landlord's reasonable discretion. Any Hazardous Materials in the Leased Premises, and all containers therefor, shall be used, kept, stored and disposed of in conformity with all applicable laws, ordinances, codes, rules, regulations and orders of governmental authorities. If the transportation, storage, use or disposal of Hazardous Materials anywhere on the Leased Premises in connection with Tenant's use of the Leased Premises results in (1) contamination of the soil or surface or ground water or (2) loss or damage to person(s) or property, then Tenant agrees (i) to notify Landlord immediately of any contamination, claim of contamination, loss or damage, (ii) after consultation with and approval by Landlord, to clean up all contamination in full compliance with all applicable statutes, regulations and standards, and (iii) to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any claims, suits, causes of action, costs and fees, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, arising from or connected with any such contamination, claim of contamination, loss or damage.

The terms of this Section shall apply to any transportation, storage, use or disposal of Hazardous Materials irrespective of whether Tenant has obtained Landlord's consent therefor but nothing in this Lease shall limit or otherwise modify the requirement of obtaining Landlord's prior consent as set forth in the first sentence of this Section.

Landlord's rights of entry shall be exercisable only at reasonable times, in a reasonable manner so as not to unreasonably interfere with the operation of Tenant's business, at reasonable intervals and on reasonable notice to Tenant as permitted by the Colorado Marijuana Code. Nothing contained herein, however, shall impose or imply any duty on the part of Landlord to make any repairs or perform any such work on the Leased Premises or to the Changes or Alterations. In any circumstances where Landlord is permitted to enter upon the Leased Premises, no such entry shall constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenant's use and possession of the Leased Premises or render Landlord liable for damages of loss of business or otherwise or entitle Tenant to be relieved from any of its obligations or grant Tenant any right of set-off or recoupment or other remedy. Upon reasonable notice to Tenant, the Landlord and/or its authorized representatives shall have the unlimited right to inspect the premises to ensure compliance with the Colorado Marijuana Code.

It is further agreed that the rules and regulations set forth in Exhibit B shall be and are hereby made a part of this Lease, and Tenant agrees that its employees and agents, or any others permitted by Tenant to occupy or enter the Leased Premises, will at all times abide by these rules and regulations and that a default in the performance and observance of these rules and regulations shall cause Tenant to be in default of this Agreement. Landlord reserves the right to make such other and further reasonable rules and regulations as in its judgment may, from time to time, be needful and desirable for the safety, care and cleanliness of the Leased Premises and for the preservation of good order.
11. SUBLETTING/ASSIGNMENTS . Tenant shall not transfer, assign or encumber this Agreement, or sublet the Leased Premises or any part thereof, without in each case obtaining the prior written consent of the Landlord. In the event Landlord consents to subletting of the Leased Premises, any and all rents or other consideration for any reason received by Tenant in excess of the rents required under this Agreement shall be construed as part of the Base Rent payable to Landlord. Any attempt by Tenant to assign, transfer, encumber or sublet this Premises without Landlord’s written consent shall be void and shall give Landlord the right and option to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Tenant. The consent by Landlord to any assignment, transfer, subletting to any party other than Landlord shall not be construed as a waiver or release of Tenant from the terms of any covenant or obligation under this Lease nor shall the collection or acceptance of Rent from any such assignee, transferee, subtenant or occupant constitute a waiver or release of Tenant from any covenant or obligation contained in this Lease, nor shall such assignment or subletting be construed to relieve Tenant from giving Landlord reasonable notice, nor from obtaining the consent in writing of Landlord to any further assignment or subletting. In the event that Tenant defaults hereunder Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord any and all rent due from any subtenant of Tenant and hereby authorizes each such subtenant to pay said rent directly to Landlord. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Landlord consents to an assignment or sublease pursuant to this Section 11, Landlord may condition its consent upon the entry by such transferee into an agreement (in form and substances satisfactory to Landlord) with Landlord, by which such transferee assumes all of Tenant’s obligations hereunder. Any assignment of this Lease to a wholly owned subsidiary shall be permitted provided at all times the subsidiary remains wholly owned by Tenant.
12. LIENS .
A. Liens Prohibited. Tenant shall not permit any mechanic’s or materialmen’s liens to be filed against the real property of which the Leased Premises form a part nor against the Leased Premises. The Landlord shall have the right at all reasonable times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices which it deems necessary for protection from such liens.
B. Covenant against Liens. If, because of any act or omission (or alleged act or omission) of Tenant, any mechanics' or other lien, charge, or order for the payment of money or other encumbrances shall be filed or imposed against Landlord, any Mortgagee, and/or any portion of the Leased Premises (whether or not such lien, charge, order, or encumbrance is valid or enforceable as such), Tenant shall, at its cost and expense, cause same to be discharged of record or bonded within ten (10) days after notice to Tenant of the filing or imposition thereof; and Tenant shall indemnify and defend Landlord against, and save Landlord harmless from, all losses, costs, damages, expenses, liabilities, suits, penalties, claims, demands, and obligations, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees, resulting therefrom. If Tenant fails to comply with the foregoing provisions, Landlord shall have the option of discharging or bonding any such lien, charge, order, or encumbrance, and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord (as additional rent) for all losses, costs, damages, and expenses resulting therefrom or incurred in connection therewith, together with interest thereon (at a rate equal to the Maximum Legal Rate), promptly upon demand.
