COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT

 

THIS COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT ("Lease") is made and entered into as of March 1, 1998, by and between Phil Phillips, Jr. ("Lessor"), and Premier Graphics, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Lessee").

1. Term and Premises. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lessor hereby leases and lets to Lessee, and Lessee leases and accepts from Lessor, for a term of ten (10) years, commencing on the date the warehouse facility is completed and made available to Lessee (the "Commencement Date"), and expiring on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Commencement Date (the "Term"), that certain real property with a municipal address of 807 Old Missouri Road, Spring dale, Arkansas, 72764 and more particularly described in Exhibit A hereto (the "Premises").

2. Basic Rent. During the first five (5) years of the Term, Lessee shall pay Lessor, at the address of Lessor indicated herein, the sum of Ninety-Seven Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($97,500.00) per year ($3.25 per square foot) as rent for the Premises (the "Basic Rent"). The Basic Rent shall be paid to Lessor in monthly installments of Eight Thousand One Hundred Twenty-Five and 00/100 Dollars per month ($8,125.00), which monthly rental payments shall be paid in advance on the first day of each calendar month during the term of this Lease. During the second five (5) years of the Term, the Basic Rent shall escalate at the beginning of each year at the rate of five percent (5%) per year. If the Term does not commence on the first day of a calendar month, Lessee will pay in advance, on the first day of the Term, a pro rata part of the regular monthly rent installment, based on the number of days of the Term occurring within the calendar month in which the Term commences; and the rent installment due on the first day of the last calendar month occurring during the Term shall be similarly prorated. All rental payments shall be considered "past due" on the fifteenth (15th) of the month in which they are due, and if said payment has not been received by the Lessor by such date there will be a late charge of five percent (5.0%) of the monthly rental on all such "past due rentals," it being agreed that such is the reasonable additional expense incurred by Lessor in handling such late payments. All rental payments and other payments by Lessee to Lessor shall be mailed or delivered to Lessor at the address of Lessor indicated herein or to such other person or address in such city as Lessor may direct by written notices to Lessee. Lessee hereby waives any and all notices and demands for payment of the monthly rental payments of Basic Rent due under this Lease to Lessor.

3. Additional Rent. In addition to the payment of Basic Rent, Lessee shall pay all of the following costs arising from or related to the Premises, which costs shall be collectively referred to herein as additional rent ("Additional Rent"):

(a) Maintenance of Premises. Lessee shall, at its sole expense, take good care of the Premises and any building now or hereafter erected thereon, both inside and outside, and keep the same and all parts thereof in good order and condition, suffering no waste or injury, and shall, at Lessee's sole expense, promptly make all needed maintenance or repairs, in and to any building or structure or equipment now or hereafter erected upon the Premises, including all fixtures, machinery, heating, plumbing and electrical systems and other equipment now or hereafter belonging to or connected with the Premises or used in their operation. All such repairs shall be of first class quality sufficient for the proper maintenance and operation of the Premises. Lessee shall not obstruct or permit the obstruction of the street or sidewalk and shall keep the sidewalk and curb adjoining the Premises clean and free of snow and ice. If Lessee fails to make such repairs or maintenance promptly, or within fifteen (15) days of occurrence, Lessor may, at its option, make them, and Lessee shall repay the cost thereof to Lessor on demand. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lessor shall be required to make all repairs to the Premises that are structural in nature, which shall include repairs to the roof, and load bearing walls unless caused by Lessee's negligence. Lessee shall immediately report any damage or malfunction which occurs with respect to the Premises.

(b) Maintenance of Common Areas. Lessee shall pay to Lessor, as Additional Rent, all costs and expenses of every kind and nature paid or incurred by Lessor during the Term of the Lease (and any renewal term) in operating, managing, equipping, lighting, repairing, replacing, policing and maintaining the common parking and ingress and egress areas (herein "Common Areas") of the Premises (except structural repairs as set forth in Paragraph 3. a. above). Alternatively, Lessor may require Lessee to perform (or cause to be performed) such maintenance. Such costs and expenses shall include, but shall not be limited to: utilities, lighting the Common Areas, if any, cleaning costs, expenses of planting, replanting and replacing flowers, landscaping, water and sewerage charges, premiums for liability and property damage, and fees for required licenses and permits.

(ii) Personal Property Taxes.

(1) Lessee shall pay prior to delinquency all taxes assessed against and levied upon trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal property of Lessee contained on the Premises or elsewhere. When possible, Lessee shall cause said trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real property taxes.

(2) If any of Lessee's personal property shall be assessed with Lessor's real property, Lessee shall pay Lessor the taxes attributable to Lessee within ten (10) days after receipt of a written statement setting forth the taxes applicable to Lessee's property.

This indemnification and the terms and provisions of this Paragraph 11 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

(h) Lessor acknowledges that Lessee has not caused or contributed to any Release of a Hazardous Material or any other condition of environmental contamination at the Premises which occurred or came into existence prior to the commencement of this Lease and Lessee's possession of the Premises thereunder (hereinafter referred to as a "Preexisting Environmental Condition"); and Lessor hereby fully and forever releases and discharges Lessee, its directors, officers, employees, successors and assigns, from any and all claims, causes of action, liabilities, losses, demands, fines, penalties, judgments, orders, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, engineers' fees and consultants' fees), which in any way arises out of, or results from, a Preexisting Environmental Condition.

12. Entry for Repairs and Inspection. Lessee shall permit Lessor and its officers, agents or representatives, the right to enter into and upon any and all parts of the Premises at all reasonable hours to inspect same or clean or make repairs or alterations or additions as Lessor may deem necessary or desirable. Lessee shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent by reason thereof.

13. Condemnation. If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the power of eminent domain, or sold under the threat of the exercise of said power (all of which are herein called "Condemnation"), this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs. If more than ten percent (10%) of the floor area of any building on the Premises, or more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the land of the Premises which is not occupied by any building, is taken by Condemnation, Lessee may, at Lessee's option, to be exercised in writing within ten (10) days after Lessor has given Lessee written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within ten (10) days after the condemning authority has taken possession) terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Lessee does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining, except that the rent shall be reduced in the proportion that the floor area of the building or the area of unimproved land taken bears to the total floor area of the building or land, whichever the case may be. Any award for the taking of all or any part of the Premises under the power of eminent domain or any payment made under threat of the exercise of such power shall be the property of Lessor, whether such awards hall be made as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or for the taking of the fee, or as severance damages; provided, however, that Lessee shall be entitled to any award for loss of or damage to Lessee's trade fixtures and removable personal property. In the event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of such Condemnation, Lessor shall to the extent of the award received by Lessor in connection with such condemnation, repair any damage to the Premises caused by such Condemnation; provided, however, that if such Condemnation has taken more than thirty-thee and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the total floor area of the buildings on the Premises, Lessor may, at Lessor's option, to be exercised in writing within ten (10) days after Lessor has given Lessee written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within ten (10) days after the condemning authority has taken possession) terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession.

14. Holding Over. Any holding over after the expiration of this Lease shall constitute a month-to-month tenancy, and Lessee shall be subject to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease during such holdover period.

15. Damage or Destruction. Should the current building upon the Premises be totally destroyed by fire or other casualty, or so damaged thereby that rebuilding or repairs cannot be completed within ninety (90) days from date of the fire or casualty, this Lease shall terminate, and Lessee shall be allowed a total abatement of the rent from the date of occurrence of such damage or destruction. However, if the damage is such that rebuilding or repairs can be completed within ninety (90) days, the Lessor covenants and agrees to make such repairs within ninety (90) days and to allow Lessee an abatement of the rent for such time as the building is untenantable, in proportion to the floor space rendered untenable, and the Lessee covenants and agrees that the terms of this Lease shall not be otherwise affected thereby.

16. Events of Default: Remedies.

(a) Default by Lessee. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default and breach of this Lease by Lessee: (i) The abandonment of the Premises by Lessee. (ii) The failure by Lessee to make any payment of Basic Rent, Additional Rent or any other payment required to be made by Lessee hereunder, as and when due for a period of ten (10) days. (iii) The failure by Lessee to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Lessee, other than described in clause (i) and (ii) above, which failure then continues for a period of fifteen (15) days after written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessee's default is such that more than fifteen (15) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default if Lessee commences such cure within said fifteen (15) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion. (iv) The making by Lessee of any general arrangement or assignment for the benefit of creditors, the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Lessee's assets or of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within thirty (30) days, filing of a voluntary or involuntary petition in bankruptcy or adjudication of Lessee as bankrupt or insolvent.

17. Remedies. In the event of any such default or breach by Lessee, Lessor may at any time thereafter, after written notice to Lessee as provided above, and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such default or breach:

(a) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. In such event, Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages incurred by Lessor by reason of Lessee's default including, but not limited to, all unpaid Basic Rent and Additional Rent for the balance of the Term (or any extension thereof), the cost of recovering possession of the Premises and any other sum of money or damages owed to Lessor pursuant to the terms hereof. Lessor agrees to use reasonable effort in mitigating any damage from a breach by Lessee.

(b) Maintain Lessee's right to possession in which case this Lease shall continue in effect whether or not Lessee has abandoned the Premises. In such event, Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of Lessor's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to accelerate all remaining rent under the Lease.

18. Alterations and Additions.

(a) Lessee shall not, without Lessor's prior written consent, make any alterations, improvements, additions, or utility installations in, on or about the Premises, except for nonstructural alterations not exceeding $10,000 in cumulative costs during the Term of this Lease. In any event, whether or not in excess of $10,000 in cumulative cost, Lessee shall make no change or alteration to the exterior of the buildings on the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent. As used in this Paragraph 17, the term "utility installation" shall mean carpeting, window coverings, airlines, power panels, electrical distribution systems, lighting fixtures, space heaters, air conditioning, plumbing, and fencing. Lessor may require that Lessee, at Lessee's sole expense, remove any or all of said alterations, improvements, additions or utility installations at the expiration of the Term, and restore the Premises to their prior condition. Should Lessee make any alterations, improvements, additions or utility installations without the prior approval of Lessor, Lessor may require that Lessee remove any or all of the same at any time.

(b) Lessee shall pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Lessee at or for use in the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by any mechanics' or material men's lien against the Premises or any interest therein. If Lessee shall, in good faith, contest the validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then Lessee shall, at its sole expense, defend itself and Lessor against the same and shall pay and satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the enforcement thereof against the Lessor or the Premises, upon the condition that if Lessor shall require, Lessees hall furnish to Lessor a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor in an amount equal to such contested lien claim or demand indemnifying Lessor against liability forth e same and holding the Premises free from the effect of such lien or claim.

(c) Unless Lessor requires their removal, as set forth in Paragraph 17. a., all alterations, improvements, additions and utility installations (except utility installations which constitute trade fixtures of Lessee), which may be made on the Premises, shall become the property of Lessor and remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises at the expiration of the term. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Paragraph 17. c., Lessee's machinery and equipment, other than that which is affixed to the Premises so that it cannot be removed without material damage to the Premises, shall remain the property of Lessee and may be removed by Lessee.

19. Waiver. Failure of either party to declare any default immediately upon occurrence thereof or delay in taking any action in connection therewith shall not waive such default, but either party shall have the right to declare any such default at any time and take such action as might be lawful or authorized hereunder, either at law or in equity.
