1 Social Work Action Group
Addressing the Homeless in the City of Fontana
FY 2022-2023 Strategic Plan
To address the increase of unsheltered homeless individuals in the City of Fontana, Social Work Action Group (SWAG) has prepared a Strategic Plan of Action. The Strategic Plan specifically targets unsheltered individuals, families, and encampments to reduce the number of visible homeless residing in the City of Fontana. With the assistance of Fontana Police Department, SWAG will identify individuals and geographical areas of concern to prioritize our efforts. SWAG will provide consistent outreach and case management services to those most in need with the ultimate goal of permanent housing. SWAG will build upon our efforts from the last year in Fontana and continue to reduce the homeless population both visibly and documented through the annual Point-in-Time Count. Simultaneously, SWAG will engage, educate, and encourage the community of Fontana to collaborate efforts and spread the message of Responsible Compassion.
1. Census of unsheltered homeless
In every community, it is vital to conduct a thorough and comprehensive census of the unsheltered homeless population. City staff, Fontana Police Department, and SWAG will work together to accurately locate, identify, survey and track, through the creation of a by-name list. A comprehensive assessment will provide an in-depth look at the individual, the circumstances and incidents that led to homelessness, such as severe trauma(s). We will also detail one’s connections and support systems in the city to leverage those individuals and incorporate those resources. This information will be used to develop an individualized action plan. This will be done on an ongoing basis as new individuals enter the city.
2. Outreach to the unsheltered homeless
Street outreach must be intensive, consistent, and strategic and needs the partnership of law enforcement and successful utilization and navigation of systems of care; behavioral health, and substance abuse treatment. Our team is comprised of individuals with specialized backgrounds in behavioral health, substance abuse, and social work who have a fundamental understanding of human development and behaviors. When we develop an action plan, we follow a flow chart that directs our activities and interactions with the individual to achieve specific outcomes, both short and long term.
3. Trip Home/ Family Reunification
When an individual is found living on the streets of Fontana and wants to reconnect with family or a positive support system, we will initiate the Trip Home/ Family Reunification process. First, SWAG will contact the family/ support system to ensure they are willing to accept and house the 51 2
individual. Next, the Family Reunification/ Trip Home request will be submitted to the SWAG Project Coordinator for approval. The SWAG Outreach Team will purchase a Greyhound bus ticket and ensure the individual boards the bus. SWAG team will contact the family or support system to confirm the individual made it to the destination. Finally, SWAG will submit a request for reimbursement for the cost of Greyhound bus ticket along with all applicable documentation.
Scope of Services
Social Work Action Group (SWAG) will work in conjunction with the City of Fontana to facilitate and lead the overall scope of homeless services for the City of Fontana. Full-time, 40 hours per week, Homeless Outreach team members will serve the project. The SWAG homeless services team will follow a Monday-Friday, 7:30am-4:30pm schedule. The term of services will be August 1, 2022- October 31, 2022. SWAG will provide the following activities and services:
• Assist with the organization and facilitation of the Point-in-Time Count for January 2023. • Respond to homeless service requests made by city staff, and law enforcement in a timely manner. • Provide immediate crisis stabilization to those experiencing behavioral health, physical crisis and emergencies and connection to behavioral health and substance abuse treatment services. • Case manage individuals that are in treatment and temporary living situations to help ensure they do not return to the streets.

COUNCIL GOALS:
· Provide a diverse range of housing types and levels of affordability while addressing homelessness in the community by promoting diverse range of housing projects and levels of affordability.
DISCUSSION:
The property at 17878 Upland Avenue was originally acquired by the City’s Housing Department on March 29, 2022. The property consists of a single-family home in disrepair with multiple unpermitted structures. The City intends to fully rehabilitate the property to meet Health and Safety standards and add the property to its affordable unit portfolio.
On September 14th, 2022, the Invitation to Bidders was sent out to six hundred sixty (660) vendors and it closed on October 13th, 2022 at 2:00 p.m. There were forty-one (41) downloads and a total of three (3) valid bids were received ranging from $229,963.00 to $384,000.00. Final Touch Construction submitted the apparent lowest bid in the amount of $229,963.00. The Inspector/Engineer estimated the total rehabilitation cost for this rehabilitation to be $202,554.00.
After reviewing the proposed bid documents and performing the license and certification checks, Housing and Purchasing staff has determined Final Touch Construction to be the lowest responsible and responsive bidder.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact associated with the approval of this item is $229,963 (contract plus contingency).

SUMMARY OF SCOPE, BUDGET, SCHEDULE, AND SIGNIFICANT
PROJECT CHANGES IN SUPPORT OF CONTRACT AMENDMENT
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL BUDGET FOR PROFESSIONAL
SERVICES PROVIDED BEYOND ORIGINAL CONTRACT AND
AMENDMENT 1
INTRODUCTION
In February 2016, the City of Fontana and NCM agreed on the scope, budget, and schedule for the Sierra Avenue Widening Project from Foothill Boulevard to Baseline Avenue (Project). The scope of work included engineering, field surveys, environmental, traffic studies, drainage, geotechnical, hazardous materials, right-of-way engineering, traffic design, landscape design, and public outreach. The original sheet count was 54 plan sheets with 40 cross section sheets, the original budget was $941,764.59, and the original schedule was 22 months (i.e., from Mar 2016 to Dec 2017).
Currently (Thursday March 31, 2022), we have $119,535.88 remaining in our contract, and beyond that for additional work NCM is requesting a Contract Amendment in the amount $357,916.77. To meet City’s stringent deadlines to take the project to construction, under good faith NCM has completed all the necessary design work without waiting for a contract amendment. NCM is respectfully requesting swift approval and execution of this contract amendment so signed plans can be issued for construction.
One of the metrics employed by our industry for estimating reasonableness of a design fee is by computing the design fee as a percentage of overall construction cost. The following table summarizes both our original fee and also the contract amendment fee request percentages relative to overall project cost.

SIERRA AVENUE WIDENING PROJECT FROM FOOTHILL BOULEVARD TO BASELINE AVENUE
Both the original design fee (12.88%) and new amended design fee (9.07%) relative percentages are significantly lower than the industry standard of 18% to 25% for Projects including the PAED+PS&E + ROW Engr+ Bid + Construction phases. This further substantiates the reasonableness of NCM’s request.
SUMMARY OF SCOPE CHANGES
A key indicator for the magnitude of the engineering (PS&E) efforts is the sheet count. Please see the original sheet count and the actual number of sheets prepared in “Table 1 – Sheet Count Comparison” below.

The original sheet count was 54 plan sheets and 40 cross section sheets. As the project design developed, the number of plan sheets increased from 54 to 92 sheets (almost twice as many), with the largest sheet increase in the construction details from 10 sheets to 30 sheets. These sheets are primarily 125
SIERRA AVENUE WIDENING PROJECT FROM FOOTHILL BOULEVARD TO BASELINE AVENUE
focused on detailing the work needed for adjacent properties and included details for significant ADA upgrades and improvements for ADA pathways and access to adjacent properties and businesses. The number of cross section sheets increased from 40 to over 360.
SUMMARY OF BUDGET CHANGES
The original budget was $941,764.59 and this was increased in February 2020 by $88,571.06 to $1,030,335.65. Please note, that this February 2020 budget increase primarily focused in NCM’s subconsultants with the understanding that another budget increase would be completed for NCM’s additional work.
SUMMARY OF SCHEDULE CHANGES
The original schedule was 22 months. The schedule is now expected to take 74 months (i.e., from March 2016 to April 2022). This is an increase of 52 months or 4.33 years.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT PROJECT CHANGES
Significant Project changes occurred during the Preliminary Engineering, Environmental Approvals, Final Design, and Right-of-Way Phases of the Project. These are:
1. Additional Budget for Surveying, TCE Plats, Legals, and Easement Deeds
2. Credit to the City for Partially Completing the Specifications
3. Significantly More Complex Roadway Design
4. Project Management for a Significantly Longer and More Complex Project
5. Additional Continuing Project Coordination Meetings
6. Preliminary Engineering, Alternative Analysis, and Final Design for a New Mid-Block Intersection
7. Additional Surveying and Right-of-Way Coordination
8. Landscape Coordination for City Requested Changes
9. Coordination with Southern California Edison for Rule 20A and 20B Undergrounding
10. Coordination with Fontana Water Company
11. Coordination with Other Utility Agencies
12. Coordination and Additional Designs for the Cypress / Foothill Storm Drain
13. Design and Plan Modifications for a New High School along Sierra Avenue
14. Design and Plan Modifications for the New Sierra Fountains Development
15. Retaining Wall Modifications for 7837 Sierra Avenue at the Northeast Corner of Malaga Street
16. Freestanding Wall Foundations and Pilaster Designs for Private Walls to be Reconstructed with the Project
17. Structural Designs for Signs

SIERRA AVENUE WIDENING PROJECT FROM FOOTHILL BOULEVARD TO BASELINE AVENUE
18. Roadway Design Model Updates
19. Coordination and Plan Modifications for Constructability Review
20. Appraisal Coordination and Assistance
21. Cost to Finish
Details for each of these significant Project changes are summarized below.
1. ADDITIONAL BUDGET FOR SURVEYING, TCE PLATS, LEGALS, AND
EASEMENT DEEDS
This additional task and budget were initially approved by the City on 11/28/2018; however, this amount was inadvertently omitted in Task Order 1.1 executed on 02/11/2020 in the amount of $88,571.06.
2. CREDIT TO THE CITY FOR PARTIALLY COMPLETING THE SPECIFICATIONS As requested by the City, NCM is providing a credit to the City in the amount of $30,974.72 for not completing the specifications.
3. SIGNIFICANTLY MORE COMPLEX ROADWAY DESIGN
The existing roadway pavement surface along Sierra Avenue is a rounded crown shape with flatter cross slopes in the middle of the roadway and steeper cross slopes along the outside edges. The existing roadway’s cross slopes are highly variable from 1.12% to 6.63% with a typical cross slope of about 3.3%. The typical existing pavement cross slope (at Sta. 33+75) is shown below. 127
SIERRA AVENUE WIDENING PROJECT FROM FOOTHILL BOULEVARD TO BASELINE AVENUE
A typical pavement widening design would establish a saw cut line just inside of the existing lip of gutter and widen the roadway using a cross slope similar to the existing. This typical approach is illustrated for the right side of the roadway in the cross section (at Sta. 33+75) below. Please note that using a cross slope similar to the existing would drop the gutter, curb, and sidewalk approx.
0.80 feet and this would create a significant impact to the adjacent property.
A more sophisticated roadway design was developed by NCM to dramatically reduce adjacent property impacts, as shown above. With this more sophisticated roadway design, the new roadway improvements match the existing adjacent surfaces to within 4 inches.
There is also a southbound left-turn pocket to Reed Street (East) at this location. Here the curbed median width narrows to 2 feet wide. At this (and other similar) locations, the new median top of curb elevations are very close to the same elevation to provide a nearly level median throughout the corridor. The overall result is a smooth uniform roadway and median design with reduced impacts to adjacent properties.
The new pavement design also provides significant upgrades for ADA facilities, pathways, and access to adjacent properties and businesses. A typical example is shown on the next page for the driveway and ADA ramp improvements at the County Square Shopping Center. At this location, the existing very short sidewalk connections must be replaced with much longer ADA ramps with upper and lower landings, edge protection curbs, and railings. Specialized custom designs were developed to fit the existing site conditions and to connect the existing and new sidewalk surfaces.
128
SIERRA AVENUE WIDENING PROJECT FROM FOOTHILL BOULEVARD TO BASELINE AVENUE
The budget requested for this task is $105,590.63 representing approximately 1023.50 hours of design staff time, this is very reasonable given the complex roadway design, including 3 additional Typical (Cross) Section sheets; 3 additional Construction Detail sheets (C1 through C-3) that shows the various pavement, cold mill, and overlay types and thicknesses; roadway design modeling; and the preparation of 264 cross section sheets. This task also included the preparation of 18 additional very complex and detailed Construction Detail sheets.
Please note, completing the design analysis, preparation, quantities and estimates for 24 additional complex plan sheets for 1023.5 hours equals 42.65 hours per sheet. This is very reasonable given the industry standard for similar plan sheets would be at least 60 hours per sheet.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $105,590.63
129
SIERRA AVENUE WIDENING PROJECT FROM FOOTHILL BOULEVARD TO BASELINE AVENUE
4. PROJECT MANAGEMENT FOR A SIGNIFICANTLY LONGER AND MORE
COMPLEX PROJECT
Completed continuing project management activities for 52 additional months including coordination with traffic, environmental, surveying, right-of-way, landscaping subconsultants and City staff and City ROW and plan check reviewers. NCM monitored the schedule of critical path activities and kept the City informed of progress and critical issues. Prepared budget requests and coordinated with the City to obtain approvals to keep schedule critical environmental and right-of-way activities moving forward.
The original Project Management budget was 40 hours for the NCM’s Project Manager and 28 hours for NCM’s clerical staff for a budget of $10,175.00. The actual Project Management work after the original schedule completion date of Dec 2017 totaled 122.5 hours and $24,552.25.
This is very reasonable given the significantly longer, more complex Project.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $24,552.25
5. ADDITIONAL CONTINUING PROJECT COORDINATION MEETINGS
NCM prepared for and attend additional Project coordination meetings including preparing and updating agendas and schedules for critical activities, reviews, and approvals. NCM identified design, environmental, utility, surveying, and right-of-way issues and coordinated with the City to develop solutions.
Originally, a total of 140 hours and $25,410 were budgeted for PDT, Utility Coordination, and right-of-way meetings and this budget was exhausted by Dec 2017. After Dec 2017, 30 additional monthly PDT, environmental and right-of-way focus meetings, and bi-weekly Project coordination meetings were completed. This required 106 hours of staff time and a budget $20,743.25. This is approximately 3 hours per meeting, which is very reasonable, especially for the PDT meetings where agendas, critical issues and solutions, and schedule updates were competed for each meeting.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $20,743.25
6. PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING, ALTERNATIVE ANALYSIS, AND FINAL DESIGN
FOR A NEW MID-BLOCK INTERSECTION
After the initial traffic analysis, it was found that with the addition of a new landscaped and decorative median along Sierra Avenue, U-turn moves at the major intersections along Sierra Avenue increased significantly. This was particularly the case in the southerly half of the project between Foothill Boulevard and Miller Avenue where large commercial centers, a County of San Bernardino office building, and multi-family developments are located. The expected impacts included long left-turn lanes, increased length of left-turn signal phases, reduced overall traffic signal operations and levels of service, longer travel distances, and potential pedestrian safety concerns. The solution was to introduce a new mid-block signalized intersection about halfway 130
SIERRA AVENUE WIDENING PROJECT FROM FOOTHILL BOULEVARD TO BASELINE AVENUE
between Foothill Boulevard and Miller Avenue. Four alterative locations were studied. Please see the sample alternative analysis is included on the following page.
Upon City approval, design a new signalized intersection with left-turn pockets long enough to accommodate U-turning traffic without blocking through traffic along Sierra Avenue was completed at Reed Street (East). Roadway and curb geometry and pavement surface designs were updated.
The addition of the mid-block signalized intersection will reduce delays at both the Foothill Boulevard and Miller Avenue intersections with Sierra Avenue and enhance traffic flow along the Sierra Avenue corridor. The cost for this additional work was 136.5 hours of staff time and $20,002.50. This is very reasonable given the significant benefits that the new mid-block signalized intersection will provide.

7. ADDITIONAL SURVEYING AND RIGHT-OF-WAY COORDINATION
Completed coordination for surveyors to expedite production of the plat maps and legal descriptions for new rights-of-way and temporary construction easements for the widening of Sierra Avenue. Tracked the status of work including every document required for every parcel including submittals, reviews, corrections, resubmittals, back-checks, corrections, resubmittals and approvals. Coordinated with City staff to provide red-lined comments, revised documents, and upon City approval, provided "wet stamped and signed" original documents to the City.
The cost for this additional work was 87.25 hours of staff time and $12,170.13. Please note that all of this work was completed after plat maps, legal descriptions, and deed documents were completed and approved in time for the Project to be approved by the Development Advisory Board and the start of appraisals.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $12,170.13
8. LANDSCAPE COORDINATION FOR CITY REQUESTED CHANGES
Completed coordination, and reviews, to update the landscaping plans including confirming the irrigation controller location, and water and electrical service locations. Checked plans for the required clearances between new trees and water, sewer, and gas pipelines and coordinated revisions. Coordinated updated plans for the City's revised planting list.
The cost for this additional work was 16 hours of staff time and $2,282.50.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $2,282.50

9. COORDINATION WITH SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON FOR RULE 20A AND 20B UNDERGROUNDING
Prepared for and attended coordination meetings with SCE and City staff to identify power poles to be removed and replaced with the new Rule 20A underground system. Provided maps and CADD files (converted into the SCE format). Attended a field walk with SCE and City staff review power poles to be removed, underground vault locations and surface mounted transformer locations. Determined additional pavement repair locations to accommodate SCE connections between the overhead and the new underground systems. Reviewed SCE designs to determine compatibility with the new roadway improvements (several times).
The cost for this additional work was 112.75 hours of staff time and $13,868.25. This is very reasonable given the numerous SCE design reviews, coordination and field meetings, and follow up efforts.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $13,868.25
10.COORDINATION WITH FONTANA WATER COMPANY
Completed coordination with the Fontana Water Company (FWC) to identify above ground water facilities to be relocated due to the widening of Sierra Avenue, to provide CADD files, and to review the FWC new waterline designs. Identified conflicts between the new waterline designs and the new proposed SCE underground facilities.
The cost for this additional work was 27.00 hours of staff time and $3,267.00. This is very reasonable given the efforts to provide CADD files and design information to the FWC and then to review, check and determine that the FWC pipeline designs had multiple conflicts with the new SCE underground facilities.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $3,267.00
11.COORDINATION WITH OTHER UTILITY AGENCIES
Completed coordination with Southern California Gas, Spectrum, Crown Castle, Centurylink, Charter and AT&T to specifically identify each utility owner's facilities to be relocated and coordinated relocations designs and checks for compatibility with the new roadway improvements. Coordinated utility relocation timeframes and site preparation requirements.
Developed potholing exhibits and coordinated with the City and potholing contractor (Aztec Engineering). Reviewed pothole data and updated utility plans accordingly.
The cost for this additional work was 85.75 hours of staff time and $10,131.00. This is very reasonable given the numerous utility reviews, coordination meetings, field reviews, and follow up efforts.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $10,131.00

12.COORDINATION AND ADDITIONAL DESIGNS FOR THE CYPRESS / FOOTHILL
STORM DRAIN
As requested by the City, NCM included a portion of the Cypress / Foothill Storm Drain Project into the Sierra Avenue Widening Project including a new 60-inch and 48-inch mainline pipelines and 24-inch and 48-inch laterals. Specialized ultra-high-capacity inlets, 28 feet-long with triple grates and specialized local inlet depressions were designed. Please see the detail below.
Temporary wooden and steel bulkheads were also designed. Coordinated with Hewitt Zollars all aspects of the design and the interconnection of the two drainage systems. Provided CADD files for the special inlet designs to Hewitt Zollars.
The cost for this additional work was 199.75 hours of staff time and $24,371.56. This is very reasonable given the designs for the complex drainage system layouts and specialized ultra-highcapacity inlets, and structural designs for the temporary bulkheads. In addition, these improvements will provide substantial benefits to the City, local community, and motorists by alleviating the current significant flooding conditions at one of the City’s major intersections.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $24,371.56
13.DESIGN AND PLAN MODIFICATIONS FOR THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL ALONG
SIERRA AVENUE
Completed design coordination, updates, and modifications for the new high school to be constructed along the easterly side of Sierra Avenue just south of Miller Avenue. Added driveways and revised grading limits, typical sections, cross sections, quantities and the engineers estimate. Revised the curb outlet drainage structure and associated curb heights and transitions. 135
SIERRA AVENUE WIDENING PROJECT FROM FOOTHILL BOULEVARD TO BASELINE AVENUE

NCM FEE REQUEST: $6,836.75
15.RETAINING WALL MODIFICATIONS FOR 7837 SIERRA AVENUE AT THE
NORTHEAST CORNER OF MALAGA STREET
Completed design coordination, updates and modifications to increase the height of the retaining wall at the northeast corner of Sierra Avenue and Malaga Street to include a 42-inch-high screening wall above the back of sidewalk elevation. Developed an exhibit package for the property owner showing the wall with a special design to use only 8-inch-wide block for both the retaining portion and the freestanding portion of the wall. Included applicable standard plans and wall material properties and strengths. Evaluated on-site drainage conditions and designed a sidewalk underdrain pipe (to be constructed by the roadway contractor) to provide positive drainage. Updated the roadway plans, quantities and estimate to delete the wall and to indicate that the property owner will build the wall.
The cost for this additional work was 56 hours of staff time and $5,270.25. This is very reasonable given the design modifications, structural wall designs and details, special exhibits, quantity, and estimate changes.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $5,270.25
16.FREESTANDING WALL FOUNDATIONS AND PILASTER DESIGNS FOR
PRIVATE WALLS TO BE RECONSTRUCTED WITH THE PROJECT
As requested by the City, NCM provided designs and details to reconstruct 4 freestanding decorative block and wrought iron walls on private properties as a part of the roadway construction contract. Completed field reviews to determine the condition of the wrought iron fence panels to determine their suitability to be reused in the reconstructed walls (i.e., sand blasted, prepared and painted). Developed details to replace each wall in kind with the same block sizes and configurations as the existing walls but with new footing and pilaster designs. 136

The cost for this additional work was 42 hours of staff time and $5,806.37. This is very reasonable given the specialized roadway and structural designs and details required for each of the 4 wall locations.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $5,806.37
17.STRUCTURAL DESIGNS FOR SIGNS
As requested by the City, developed structural designs, plans, and details to relocate an existing sign at the County Square shopping center and at 7605 Sierra Avenue.
The cost for this additional work was 52.50 hours of staff time and $6,400.00. This is very reasonable given the change that came at the tail end of the project. NCM brought the structures group to design these signs, and was still able to complete the design in a timely manner.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $6,400.00
18.ROADWAY DESIGN MODEL UPDATES
Updated the InRoads roadway design model for all of the design changes associated with the constructability review including, but not limited to, Joe's Mexican Food, Jack-in-the-Box, Circle K, Miller Avenue, pavement repairs for SCE trenches, the new high school, and the new Sierra Fountains development.
The cost for this additional work was 86.50 hours of staff time and $9,497.13. This is very reasonable given the numerous revisions and very detailed roadway design model updates including revised templates, cross sections, and quantities.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $9,497.13
19.COORDINATION AND PLAN MODIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTABILITY REVIEW
Coordination and Plan Revisions for Constructability Review - Reviewed constructability comments and completed design coordination for updated and modifications to the plans, construction notes, bid items, quantities and engineers estimate. Updated limits of grading the roadway design model, quantities. Revised and updated curb returns and curb ramp designs to retain roadway runoff along Sierra Avenue to the extent possible. Added extra notes.
The cost for this additional work was 551 hours of staff time and $54,605.02. This is very reasonable given the significant number of comments, special requests to provide back-up information, and several last-minute changes to the plans, details, quantities, and Engineer’s Estimate.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $54,605.02
20.APPRAISAL COORDINATION AND ASSISTANCE
Based upon our Project Coordination meetings and as requested by the City, NCM developed and prepared exhibits for City staff and the Appraiser to use in coordinating with property owners. 137
SIERRA AVENUE WIDENING PROJECT FROM FOOTHILL BOULEVARD TO BASELINE AVENUE
The cost for this additional work was 27.50 hours of staff time and $3,148.75. This is very reasonable given NCM’s quick responses to provide exhibits for the appraisers and property owners to facilitate agreements for the right-of-way negotiations.
NCM FEE REQUEST: $3,148.75
21. COST TO FINISH
Please note, that the above tasks capture NCM’s additional efforts up to Friday, 02/18/2022. This task captures NCM’s final costs to complete the plans, quantities, and estimate through 04/14/2022. This task includes:

SUBJECT:
Adoption of a Resolution Declaring Certain City Owned Property a Public Right of Way for Street and Public Utility Purposes for Lytle Creek Road and Accepting the Road into the City’s Street System.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2022-137, Declaring Certain City owned Property a Public Right of Way for Street and Public Utility Purposes for Lytle Creek Road and Accepting the Road into the City’s Street System.
COUNCIL GOALS:
· Invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by maintaining and improving the city's existing infrastructure.
· Invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by providing for the development of new infrastructure.
DISCUSSION:
On April 8, 2019, the City’s Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract Map No. 20010 for the Narra Hills project (“Project”). The Project reconfigured Lytle Creek Road, realigning the street with Coyote Canyon Road to the south.
To realign Lytle Creek Road, the City Council approved the Agreement Regarding Lytle Creek Road Right of Way Exchange and Joint Escrow Instructions on August 11, 2021, which allowed for property to be exchanged between Arroyo Cap II-6, LLC, San Bernardino County Flood Control, and the City.
This agreement resulted in the City receiving title of the property for Lytle Creek Road in fee simple.
It is now necessary for the City to adopt the Resolution to declare the property as a public right of way for a new public roadway, allowing public utility access to the property, and pursuant to Streets and Highways Code section 1806, accept the realigned Lytle Creek Road into the City’s street system.

WHEREAS, on August 11th, 2021, the City Council of the City of Fontana (“City”) approved the Agreement Regarding Lytle Creek Road Right of Way Exchange and Joint Escrow Instructions (“Agreement”) allowing certain property to be exchanged between Arroyo Cap II-6, LLC, San Bernardino County Flood Control and the City, as more particularly described in Exhibit “A”, attached hereto; and
WHEREAS, under the Agreement, Arroyo Cap II-6 conveyed property to the City in fee simple, as more particularly described and shown in Exhibit “B”, attached hereto and incorporated herein (“Property”); and
WHEREAS, in accordance with the conditions of approval for Tentative Tract Map No. 20010 approved by the City’s Planning Commission on April 8th, 2019, Arroyo Cap II-6 must construct public roadway improvements for the development of the Property, and must maintain those improvements until the project is complete and ready to be dedicated and accepted by the City; and

SUBJECT:
Authorize the purchase of a 621G Wheel Loader from Sonsray Machinery.
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Purchasing Office to use the NJPA Cooperative Purchasing Agreement now Sourcewell (Contract # 32119-CNH) for the purchase of one (1) Case 621G wheel loader from Sonray Machinery, Fontana, CA in the amount of $215,995.00 plus sales tax (7.75%), tire tax of $7.00 and processing fee of $399.00 for a total of $233,140.62.
COUNCIL GOALS:
· Operate in a businesslike manner by creating a memorable customer experience with every interaction.
· Practice sound fiscal management by living within our means while investing in the future.
DISCUSSION:
The Public Works Department (Utilities and Streets Division) is responsible for maintaining a variety of infrastructure needs such as, cleaning road edges on City streets, concrete removal, and repair to City sidewalks. Assist with excavation to access underground sewer pipes and the removal of debris from multiple empty lots throughout the City. A heavy equipment loader is an essential piece of equipment used to maintain multiple jobs throughout the City. The current loader no longer meets the standards set by California regulatory entity, CARB. The new loader is equipped with a tier 4 carb compliant engine. Purchase of the unit was approved and funds have been transferred to Fleet Fund 06-8319, as part of the FY22/23 vehicle replacement budget.
The selected 621G Loader is being recommended for purchase after a comprehensive review process by Department staff, Field staff and Fleet. Discussing the departments needs to perform their daily duties, staff has reviewed specifications from multiple manufacturers. Based upon the research, the loader capable of keeping up with the demands required by the department, at the lowest cost to the City, is the Case 621G loader. This unit will meet the needs of the Department and Sonsray equipment can also provide quick parts, service, repairs, and technical support.
Fontana City Code Article V- Purchasing Section 10-152(4) authorizes bidding to be exempt since competitive bidding already conducted by another agency. Staff is recommending that the City Council authorize this purchase between Sonray Machinery and the City, and to “piggy-back” off the Sourcewell contract for the loader.

The Public Works Department (Utilities and Streets Division) is responsible for the maintenance and repair of the City underground sewer infrastructure which covers a span of 43.07 square miles. The camera van is an essential piece of equipment needed to maintain the network of sewer main lines, laterals, and storm drains and identifying damage or collapsed pipes due to natural events like tree roots. The department is requesting to purchase a new vehicle to replace the current camera van in service. Additional funds to purchase the vehicle was approved fourth quarter and funds were transferred to Fleet Fund 06-8319.
The selected camera van is being recommended for purchase after a comprehensive review process by Department staff, Field staff and Fleet. Discussing the departments priorities to successfully utilize their vehicle to perform their daily duties the staff has reviewed specifications from multiple manufacturers. Based upon the research, the van that meets the departments goals is the Cues camera van mounted on a Ford E-450 chassis from National Auto Fleet. This unit will meet the need of the Sewer Department and Plumbers Depot (authorized Cues dealer) can provide parts, service, repairs, and technical support.

The City of Fontana, in collaboration with the Fontana Unified School District (FUSD), is proposing a new program to serve community members taking part in the Fontana Unified School District’s implementation of the Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P). The ELO-P provides State funding for afterschool and summer school enrichment programs for transitional kindergarten through sixth grade. Programs that qualify for the funding may include before school, after school, summer, or intersession learning programs that focus on developing the academic, social, emotional, and physical needs and interests of pupils through hands-on, engaging learning experiences.
The City of Fontana, CSD Fontana Expanded Learning Program (FELP), is currently in its fifteenth year of collaboration with the Fontana Unified School District (FUSD) as the provider of the After School Education and Safety Grant (ASES) program and has expanded operations to include ELO-P activities through FY2023-2024 per an existing contract and subsequent amendments.
This proposal, is to specifically work with Transitional Kindergarten (TK) students at two City Community Centers, providing additional contract services to FUSD in a program modeled after the existing City Tiny Tot program. The CSD Facilities Division provides the Tiny Tot Program (for ages 3 to 5), a recreation activity providing basic instruction on letters, numbers, shapes, colors, and City of Fontana Page 1 of 3 Printed on 12/7/2022

The initial term of this Agreement is January 10 through June 30 of 2023. This pilot program will be evaluated in the spring of 2023 to consider a term extension for future fiscal years. It is expected that this program will be extended by a multi-year agreement including a possible expansion to additional City facilities. Funding in the amount of $453,690.00 will cover staffing and programmatic costs and will be 100% reimbursable to City by FUSD through State grants/funding sources.
The proposed Agreement will allow the City to:
· Host FUSD TK students, with a maximum student to staff ratio of 10:1, at the Cypress Neighborhood Center and at the Don Day Neighborhood Center. § Providing services on all FUSD calendar schooldays, Monday through Friday after normal school dismissal times until 6:00pm, of student oversight daily per classroom. § Providing services for 30 non-schooldays for a maximum of nine hours of student oversight daily per classroom.

§ Utilize FUSD school sites to host the TK program on a case-by-case basis when deemed in the students’ best interest due to inclement weather, available resources, and other factors identified by FUSD and City.
The proposed ELO-P TK program discussed herein was reviewed and approved by the Fontana Unified School District Board at a FUSD Board of Education Meeting in June of 2022. The City of Fontana reviewed the proposal during the City Council Meeting on July 12, 2022, approving and appropriating a budget of $453,690.00 in addition to new hires for program implementation as: one City of Fontana Page 2 of 3 Printed on 12/7/2022

Proposal for FUSD ELO-P TK Services
The City of Fontana, Community Services Department (CSD), is herein proposing a new program to serve community members taking part in the Fontana Unified School District’s implementation of the Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P). The ELO-P provides State funding for afterschool and summer school enrichment programs for transitional kindergarten through sixth grade.

Tenant shall, commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter on the first day of each sixmonth period, with the first payment due on January 2, 2023, pay Landlord such Six-Month Period Payment, without setoff, deduction or demand.
a. Back Rent. Tenant shall pay the back rent due for occupancy of the Property since July 1, 2015, in the total amount of $4,369,779.00 (“Back Rent”) to the Landlord. The terms of payment for Back Rent shall be subject to a separate agreement between the Parties, which shall be executed concurrently with this Lease.

16498.00372\40646600.3
2 from Tenant is not received by Landlord within ten (10) days after it becomes due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of 5% of the overdue rent as a late charge. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to the overdue amount or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord.
c. Interest on Unpaid Rent. Aside from Back Rent, Rent or other charges under this Lease not paid within five (5) days of the date due shall, in addition to any late charges under Section 4(b) above, bear interest at the lesser of the maximum legal rate or 10% per annum from the date due until paid.
d. Annual Adjustment. Base Rent shall increase by 2% on July 1, 2023, and then annually at the end of each 12-month period by 2.0% (rounded to nearest full cent).

Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in as good condition as when originally received, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire, earthquake, flood or act of God excepted, and including any repairs or improvements made by Tenant. If Tenant fails to maintain the Premises in good order and repair, after thirty (30) days' prior written notice, Landlord may, at its option, make such repairs, and Tenant shall pay the reasonable cost thereof as additional rent hereunder within ten (10) days after receipt of a written statement therefor. In the event the giving of thirty (30) days' prior notice may result in additional damage to the Premises, Landlord may make such repairs, at Tenant's expense, without thirty days' prior written notice.
d. Inspection by Certified Access Specialist. Landlord discloses that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist as referenced in California Civil Code Section 1938 subsection (e) which provides: "A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does 233
16498.00372\40646600.3
3 not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant.
The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises."

Landlord shall not be responsible for any interruptions or disturbance of service regardless of whether Tenant is paying directly for such services or if such services are being contracted for by Landlord, nor shall there be any abatement of rent resulting from any cessation or interruption of utility service or other service contemplated by this section. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(1) or any other applicable existing or future law, ordinance or governmental regulation permitting the termination of this Lease due to the interruption of failure of any services to be provided under this Lease.

Any alterations, additions, or improvements affixed to the Premises, except furnishings, equipment, and trade fixtures, shall, at Landlord's option, become part of the real property and belong to Landlord on expiration or termination of the term and any extension thereof. If Landlord consents to the making of any alteration, additions, or improvements to the Premises, they shall be made at Tenant's sole cost and expense.

If an assignment or subletting involves a use other than that permitted in Paragraph 7 above, Tenant must comply with said Paragraph 7.
Consent to one assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person shall not be deemed to be consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person.
Consent to any such assignment or subletting shall in no way relieve Tenant of any liability under this Lease. Any such assignment or subletting without such consent shall be void, and shall, at the option of the Landlord, constitute a default under the terms of this Lease. No sublease or assignment shall release Tenant from continuing liability hereunder. In the event that Landlord shall consent to a sublease or assignment hereunder, Tenant shall pay Landlord reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred in connection with the processing of documents necessary to giving of such consent.

All insurance policies required by this Section 17 (i) must be issued by insurance companies having an "A" rating or better by Standard and Poor's, and if not rated by Standard & Poor's, then a rating of "A" by A.M. Best Company, and (ii) may be satisfied by a primary policy or combination of primary and umbrella policies. The insurance provisions set forth in this Section 17 set forth the minimum amounts and scopes of coverage to be maintained by Landlord and Tenant and are not to be construed in any way as a limitation on each party's liability under this Lease. Landlord, as a public entity, may satisfy any of its insurance requirements by use of self-insurance, deductible, captive insurance company or risk pool. The responsibility to fund any financial obligation for self-insurance, the election not to insure, and/or deductibles shall be assumed by, for the account of, and at the sole risk of each party. The application of coverage within this self-insurance, election not to insure, and/or deductible shall be deemed covered in accordance with the policy forms set forth in this Section 17.
Destruction of Premises.
a. Destruction Due to Risk Covered by Insurance.

Such destruction shall not terminate this Lease. If the existing laws do not permit the restoration, either party can terminate this Lease immediately by giving notice to the other party. Provided, however, if the cost of the restoration exceeds the amount of proceeds received from the insurance, or the estimate of time to fully restore the Premises exceeds the lesser of 270 days or the remaining Term of the Lease, Landlord can elect to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after determining that the restoration cost will exceed the insurance proceeds. b. Destruction Due to Risk Not Covered by Insurance. If, during the term of this Lease and any renewal term, the Premises or the Property and other improvements in which the Premises are located are totally or partially destroyed by a risk not covered by the insurance, rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, Landlord can elect to terminate 240
16498.00372\40646600.3
10 this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after determining the restoration cost and replacement value.

d. Waiver of Civil Code Sections. Tenant waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(2) and California Civil Code Section 1933(4) with respect to any destruction of the Premises.
Default and Landlord's Remedies.
a. Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant:
(1) Tenant shall fail to pay when due any rent or any other monetary sum payable under this Lease.
(2) Tenant shall fail to observe, keep or perform any of the other terms, covenants, agreements or conditions contained in this Lease if such default continues for a period of ten (10) days after written notice by Landlord specifying the nature of the default with reasonable particularity, unless the nature of the default is such that more than ten (10) days is required to cure it and Tenant commences to cure it within such ten (10) -day period and thereafter diligently pursues it to completion.
(3) Tenant shall become bankrupt or insolvent or make a transfer in fraud of creditors, or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or take or have taken against Tenant any proceedings of any kind under any provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Act or under any other insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization act and, in the event any such proceedings are involuntary, Tenant is not discharged from the same within thirty (30) days thereafter. (4) A receiver is appointed for a substantial part of the assets of Tenant, and such receivership is not released within thirty (30) days. (5) The abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, or the vacation (hereby defined to be thirty (30) or more consecutive days of continual absence from the Premises) of the Premises by Tenant.
(6) This Lease or any estate of Tenant hereunder shall be levied upon by any attachment or execution and such levy is not released within thirty (30) days.
Notices given under this Section shall specify the alleged default and the applicable Lease provisions, and shall demand that Tenant perform the provisions of this Lease or pay the rent that is in arrears, as the case may be, within the applicable period of time, or quit the Premises. b. Landlord's Remedies. If any default by Tenant shall occur, and following notice of default as required by this Lease (for the period applicable to the default under the applicable provision of this Lease), Landlord shall have the following remedies in addition to all other rights 241
16498.00372\40646600.3
11 and remedies provided by law or equity, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively or in the alternative.
(1) Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving written notice of such intention to terminate. In the event that Landlord shall so elect to terminate this Lease, then Landlord may recover from Tenant:
(a) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(d) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and (e) At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
As used in Subparagraphs (a) and (b) above of this Section, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate an individual is permitted by law to charge. As used in subparagraph (c) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
(2) In the event of the vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, or in the event that Landlord shall elect to reenter as provided herein or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then Landlord shall have the remedy specified by Civil Code Section 1951.4, in which Landlord may from time to time recover all rental as it becomes due or relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account of Tenant on such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. In the event that Landlord shall elect so to relet, then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied first, to the payment of any indebtedness, other than rent due hereunder, owed by Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any cost (including commissions) of such reletting; third, to the payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; fourth, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent hereunder, be less than the rent payable during that month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord upon demand.
Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any and all costs and expenses incurred 242
16498.00372\40646600.3
12 by Landlord in such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.
(3) No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Signs. All signs and graphics of every kind visible in or from public view or corridors, or the exterior of the Premises, whether inside or outside the Premises, shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval and shall be subject to compliance with any applicable Laws, including local sign ordinances and Historic Preservation laws. Landlord may provide, at its option, a building directory sign, for which Tenant shall pay its Proportionate Share.
Estoppel Certificate. Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days of request a commercially reasonable estoppel statement. Landlord and Tenant intend that any estoppel statement delivered pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the building or any interest therein and failure to execute and return such estoppel shall be a material breach of the Lease.
Eminent Domain. In case the whole of the Premises, or such part thereof that substantially interferes with the reasonable use of the Premises as a fire station, shall be taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or authority by exercise of the right of appropriation, condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking, either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority. Tenant shall not assert any claim against Landlord or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking and Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. In the event the amount of property or the type of estate taken shall not substantially interfere with the reasonable use of the Premises as a fire station, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire amount of the award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. If there is no substantial interference or if there is substantial interference, but neither party elects to terminate, Landlord shall promptly proceed to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as the Premises existed prior to such partial taking, to the extent possible by application of the condemnation proceeds only, and a proportionate allowance shall be made to Tenant for the rent corresponding to the time during which, and to the part of the Premises of which Tenant shall be so deprived on account of such taking and restoration. Nothing contained in this Section shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in any award made to Tenant for the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant. Each party waives the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 allowing either party to petition the Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the premises.
Attorneys' Fees. If either party commences an action against the other party arising out of or in connection with this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from the losing party reasonable attorney's fees and costs of suit.
Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder may be given by personal delivery or by United States certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to Tenant at the Premises 243
16498.00372\40646600.3
13 and to Landlord at 8353 Sierra Ave, Fontana, California 92335, or at such other address as the Landlord shall designate in writing.
Waiver; Accord and Satisfaction. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord on any default by Tenant shall impair such right or be construed as a waiver.
The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent rent shall not constitute a waiver of any other default; it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular rent payment involved. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the rent payment herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease.
Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Lease as to the performance of all terms, covenants, and conditions stated herein.
Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, all of the terms and conditions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

1 COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT (the "Lease") is made and entered into by and between CITY OF FONTANA, a municipal corporation ("Landlord") and FONTANA FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT, a subsidiary district of the City of Fontana ("Tenant"), under the following terms and conditions:
Introduction. Landlord owns the commercial property located at 8143 Banana Avenue, Fontana, California, 92335, located in the City of Fontana California (APN 0230-041-01) (the “Property”). The Property is improved with Fire Station No. 73 and other improvements. Tenant has occupied Property since at least July 1, 2015, without payment of rent.
Description of the Leased Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord a portion of the Property consisting of approximately 79,088 square feet, known as 8143 Banana Avenue, referred to herein as the "Premises" and shown on Exhibit A.
Term, Occupancy, and Renewal.
a. Term. The term of this Lease shall commence on January 1, 2023 (the "Commencement Date") and shall continue until June 30, 2035. b. Occupancy. Tenant has been in occupancy of the Premises under a prior agreement, and subsequent month-to-month tenancy, which agreement and tenancy are hereby terminated by the execution of this Lease (except for such provisions which expressly survive). c. Option to Renew. Provided Tenant is not in default under any terms of this Lease, and in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord, Tenant is hereby granted an option to renew this Lease, under the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease, for the further term of 10 years from and after the expiration of the original term of this Lease as set forth under Section 3(a) (the "Renewal Term") by giving Landlord written notice of election of exercise option to at least 120 days prior to the expiration of the then unexpired term; provided, if Tenant fails to timely notify Landlord of election to extend for any option period, all succeeding option periods, if any, shall automatically expire and lapse and the Lease shall terminate at the end of the term then in effect.
Rent. The annual rent as of the Commencement Date shall be $0.89 per square foot per month, or $70,388.32 per month, and $422,329.92 for each six-month period (“Six-Month Period Payment”), subject to increase as provided in Section 4(d) below (“Base Rent”). Tenant shall, commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter on the first day of each sixmonth period, with the first payment due on January 2, 2023, pay Landlord such Six-Month Period Payment, without setoff, deduction or demand.
a. Back Rent. Tenant shall pay the back rent due for occupancy of the Property since July 1, 2015, in the total amount of $5,803,477.44 (“Back Rent”) to the Landlord. The terms of payment for Back Rent shall be subject to a separate agreement between the Parties, which shall be executed concurrently with this Lease.
b. Late Charge. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of rent will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease. If any installment of rent due 253
16498.00372\40646600.3
2 from Tenant is not received by Landlord within ten (10) days after it becomes due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of 5% of the overdue rent as a late charge. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to the overdue amount or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord.
c. Interest on Unpaid Rent. Aside from Back Rent, Rent or other charges under this Lease not paid within five (5) days of the date due shall, in addition to any late charges under Section 4(b) above, bear interest at the lesser of the maximum legal rate or 10% per annum from the date due until paid.
d. Annual Adjustment. Base Rent shall increase by 2% on July 1, 2023, and then annually at the end of each 12-month period by 2.0% (rounded to nearest full cent).
Place of Payment of Rent. Rent and all other sums which shall become due under this Lease, including but not limited to late charges and additional rent, shall be payable by hand delivery or mail at City of Fontana, 8353 Sierra Ave, Fontana, California 92335, or at such other place as Landlord may designate from time to time in writing. Mailed payments must be received (not postmarked) by Landlord by the date due.
Condition of, and Improvements to, Premises.
a. Improvements. Under this Lease, Landlord shall have no obligation or responsibility, actual or implied, to install, construct, accommodate, or make any improvements to the Premises prior to, or as a condition of, Tenant's occupation of the Premises. b. As-Is Condition. Tenant warrants and agrees that Tenant has inspected the Premises. Tenant agrees to take possession of the Premises in an AS-IS condition (which exists on the date this Lease is signed) and Tenant further agrees that, if Tenant wishes to construct any improvement in the Premises, Tenant shall comply with all requirements in Exhibit B as well as Section 13 (Alterations and Liens) of this Lease. Landlord makes no representations regarding the condition, status, compliance with laws or suitability for a particular purpose for Tenant's use. c. Condition Upon Surrender. Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in as good condition as when originally received, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire, earthquake, flood or act of God excepted, and including any repairs or improvements made by Tenant. If Tenant fails to maintain the Premises in good order and repair, after thirty (30) days' prior written notice, Landlord may, at its option, make such repairs, and Tenant shall pay the reasonable cost thereof as additional rent hereunder within ten (10) days after receipt of a written statement therefor. In the event the giving of thirty (30) days' prior notice may result in additional damage to the Premises, Landlord may make such repairs, at Tenant's expense, without thirty days' prior written notice.
d. Inspection by Certified Access Specialist. Landlord discloses that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist as referenced in California Civil Code Section 1938 subsection (e) which provides: "A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does 254
16498.00372\40646600.3
3 not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant.
The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises." Pursuant to the foregoing Section 1938(e), Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, if Tenant wishes to have the Premises inspected by a CASp: (i) Tenant must notify Landlord on or before the date when Tenant executes this Lease pursuant to the election below; (ii) the inspection will be at Tenant's sole cost and expense; (iii) the inspection must be scheduled through Landlord and in coordination with the Building’s property manager; (iv) any repairs or modifications necessary to correct any violation of construction-related accessibility standards that is noted in the CASp report shall be Tenant’s responsibility; and (v) Tenant must provide a copy of the CASp report to Landlord on completion.

Tenant shall not commit or allow to be committed any waste in or upon the Premises.

Any such storage shall be permitted only by the prior written consent of Landlord or Landlord's designated agent, which consent may be revoked at any time. In the event that any unauthorized storage shall occur then Landlord shall have the right, without notice, in addition to any other rights and remedies that it may have, to remove the property and charge the cost to Tenant, which cost shall be payable as additional rent immediately upon demand by Landlord.

Landlord shall not be responsible for any interruptions or disturbance of service regardless of whether Tenant is paying directly for such services or if such services are being contracted for by Landlord, nor shall there be any abatement of rent resulting from any cessation or interruption of utility service or other service contemplated by this section. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(1) or any other applicable existing or future law, ordinance or governmental regulation permitting the termination of this Lease due to the interruption of failure of any services to be provided under this Lease.

Alterations and Liens. Tenant shall not make or cause to be made any alterations, additions, or improvements to or of the Premises or any part thereof without the prior written consent of Landlord. If any alterations require additional changes to comply with Laws which are triggered by Tenant's alterations, all such resulting requirements to comply with Laws shall be at Tenant's expense and any Landlord consent to such alterations shall be conditioned on Tenant's payment for same. Any alterations, additions, or improvements affixed to the Premises, except furnishings, equipment, and trade fixtures, shall, at Landlord's option, become part of the real property and belong to Landlord on expiration or termination of the term and any extension thereof. If Landlord consents to the making of any alteration, additions, or improvements to the Premises, they shall be made at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Tenant shall comply with the provisions of Exhibit B with regard to all Alterations and Improvements.

In the event Tenant makes any alterations to the Premises that trigger or give rise to a requirement that the Premises come into compliance with any governmental laws, ordinances, statutes, order and or regulations (such as ADA requirements), Tenant shall be fully responsible for complying, at its sole cost and expense with same. Tenant shall file a Notice of Completion after completion of any alteration or improvement and provide Landlord with a copy thereof.
Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of a set of “as built” drawings of any such work.

Tenant shall not either voluntarily, or by operation of law, assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or encumber this Lease or any interest therein, and shall not sublet the said Premises or any part thereof, or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto, or allow any other person (the employees, agents, servants and invitees of Tenant excepted) to occupy or use the said Premises, or any portion thereof, without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If an assignment or subletting involves a use other than that permitted in Paragraph 7 above, Tenant must comply with said Paragraph 7.
Consent to one assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person shall not be deemed to be consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person.
Consent to any such assignment or subletting shall in no way relieve Tenant of any liability under this Lease. Any such assignment or subletting without such consent shall be void, and shall, at the option of the Landlord, constitute a default under the terms of this Lease. No sublease or assignment shall release Tenant from continuing liability hereunder. In the event that Landlord shall consent to a sublease or assignment hereunder, Tenant shall pay Landlord reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred in connection with the processing of documents necessary to giving of such consent. Any excess consideration above the rental rate provided in this Lease Tenant is entitled to as a result of any assignment or sublease shall be divided and paid 50% to Tenant and 50% to Landlord; provided, however, that if Tenant is in default under this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to all such excess consideration

Tenant’s indemnity is not intended to nor shall it relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease to the extent such policies cover the results of negligent acts or omissions of Landlord, its employees, agents, volunteers, contractors, council members, board members and officers or the failure of Landlord to perform any of its obligations under this Lease. The obligations of Tenant under this Section 16(b) shall survive the termination or earlier expiration of this Lease. c. Exemption of Landlord from Liability.

Insurance. Tenant shall obtain and maintain at all times during the Term of this Lease insurance against claims for injuries to personal or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the Lease by the Tenant, its agents, representatives, employees, invitees, or subcontractors.

The umbrella liability or excess liability policy shall be written on an "occurrence" form with a self-insured retention no greater than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000). Such policies shall name Landlord as an additional insured and shall be primary to any insurance maintained by Landlord. h. Waiver of Subrogation. The parties release each other, and their respective authorized representatives, from any claims (for damage to any person or to the Premises and/or the building in which the Premises are located, and to the fixtures, personal property, Tenant's improvements, and alterations of either Landlord or Tenant in or on the Premises and/or the building in which the Premises are located) that are caused by or result from risks which are insured against under any insurance policies carried by the parties and in force at the time of any such damage and to the full extent of any proceeds paid under said policies. i. Ratings, Certificates. All policies shall be taken out with insurers licensed to do business in California with a current Best Rating of (A, XIII) and in form satisfactory from time to time to Landlord. Certificates of insurance evidencing all such insurance and acceptable to the Landlord shall be filed with Landlord prior to occupancy of the Premises and at least ten (10) days prior to the expiration of the term of each policy thereafter. Such certificates of insurance must specifically show all the special policy conditions required in this Paragraph 9, including "additional insured," "waiver of subrogation," "notice of cancellation," and "primary insurance" 260
16498.00372\40646600.3
9 wording applicable to each policy. Alternatively, a certified, true and complete copy of each properly endorsed policy may be submitted. All policies shall contain an undertaking by the insurers to notify Landlord and the mortgagees of Landlord in writing not less than thirty (30) days prior to any material change, reduction in coverage, cancellation, or other termination thereof.
Tenant shall furnish Landlord with proof of renewal or binders for new insurance at least thirty (30) days before the expiration date of each policy. With respect to CGL Insurance, Tenant shall name Landlord, its employees, elected officials, board members, officers, agents and volunteers as additional insureds with respect to Tenant's negligence for any claims arising out of Tenant's operations in or upon the Premises.

Best Company, and (ii) may be satisfied by a primary policy or combination of primary and umbrella policies. The insurance provisions set forth in this Section 17 set forth the minimum amounts and scopes of coverage to be maintained by Landlord and Tenant and are not to be construed in any way as a limitation on each party's liability under this Lease. Landlord, as a public entity, may satisfy any of its insurance requirements by use of self-insurance, deductible, captive insurance company or risk pool. The responsibility to fund any financial obligation for self-insurance, the election not to insure, and/or deductibles shall be assumed by, for the account of, and at the sole risk of each party. The application of coverage within this self-insurance, election not to insure, and/or deductible shall be deemed covered in accordance with the policy forms set forth in this Section 17.
Destruction of Premises.
a. Destruction Due to Risk Covered by Insurance. If, during the term of this Lease and any renewal term, the Premises or the Property and other improvements in which the Premises are located are totally or partially destroyed from a risk covered by insurance carried by either Tenant or Landlord for the Property, rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, Landlord shall restore the Premises or the Property, and other improvements in which the Premises are located, to substantially the same condition as they were immediately before destruction if they can be repaired within 270 days from date of destruction. Such destruction shall not terminate this Lease. If the existing laws do not permit the restoration, either party can terminate this Lease immediately by giving notice to the other party. Provided, however, if the cost of the restoration exceeds the amount of proceeds received from the insurance, or the estimate of time to fully restore the Premises exceeds the lesser of 270 days or the remaining Term of the Lease, Landlord can elect to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after determining that the restoration cost will exceed the insurance proceeds. b. Destruction Due to Risk Not Covered by Insurance. If, during the term of this Lease and any renewal term, the Premises or the Property and other improvements in which the Premises are located are totally or partially destroyed by a risk not covered by the insurance, rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, Landlord can elect to terminate 261
16498.00372\40646600.3
10 this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after determining the restoration cost and replacement value.
c. Abatement or Reduction of Rent. In case of destruction, there shall be an abatement or reduction of rent between the date of destruction and the date of substantial completion of restoration based on the extent to which the destruction interferes with Tenant's use of the Premises.
d. Waiver of Civil Code Sections. Tenant waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(2) and California Civil Code Section 1933(4) with respect to any destruction of the Premises.
Default and Landlord's Remedies.
a. Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant:
(1) Tenant shall fail to pay when due any rent or any other monetary sum payable under this Lease.
(2) Tenant shall fail to observe, keep or perform any of the other terms, covenants, agreements or conditions contained in this Lease if such default continues for a period of ten (10) days after written notice by Landlord specifying the nature of the default with reasonable particularity, unless the nature of the default is such that more than ten (10) days is required to cure it and Tenant commences to cure it within such ten (10) -day period and thereafter diligently pursues it to completion.
(3) Tenant shall become bankrupt or insolvent or make a transfer in fraud of creditors, or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or take or have taken against Tenant any proceedings of any kind under any provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Act or under any other insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization act and, in the event any such proceedings are involuntary, Tenant is not discharged from the same within thirty (30) days thereafter. (4) A receiver is appointed for a substantial part of the assets of Tenant, and such receivership is not released within thirty (30) days. (5) The abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, or the vacation (hereby defined to be thirty (30) or more consecutive days of continual absence from the Premises) of the Premises by Tenant.
(6) This Lease or any estate of Tenant hereunder shall be levied upon by any attachment or execution and such levy is not released within thirty (30) days.
Notices given under this Section shall specify the alleged default and the applicable Lease provisions, and shall demand that Tenant perform the provisions of this Lease or pay the rent that is in arrears, as the case may be, within the applicable period of time, or quit the Premises. b. Landlord's Remedies. If any default by Tenant shall occur, and following notice of default as required by this Lease (for the period applicable to the default under the applicable provision of this Lease), Landlord shall have the following remedies in addition to all other rights 262
16498.00372\40646600.3
11 and remedies provided by law or equity, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively or in the alternative.
(1) Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving written notice of such intention to terminate. In the event that Landlord shall so elect to terminate this Lease, then Landlord may recover from Tenant:
(a) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(d) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and (e) At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
As used in Subparagraphs (a) and (b) above of this Section, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate an individual is permitted by law to charge. As used in subparagraph (c) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
(2) In the event of the vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, or in the event that Landlord shall elect to reenter as provided herein or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then Landlord shall have the remedy specified by Civil Code Section 1951.4, in which Landlord may from time to time recover all rental as it becomes due or relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account of Tenant on such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. In the event that Landlord shall elect so to relet, then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied first, to the payment of any indebtedness, other than rent due hereunder, owed by Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any cost (including commissions) of such reletting; third, to the payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; fourth, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent hereunder, be less than the rent payable during that month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord upon demand.
Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any and all costs and expenses incurred 263
16498.00372\40646600.3
12 by Landlord in such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.
(3) No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Signs. All signs and graphics of every kind visible in or from public view or corridors, or the exterior of the Premises, whether inside or outside the Premises, shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval and shall be subject to compliance with any applicable Laws, including local sign ordinances and Historic Preservation laws. Landlord may provide, at its option, a building directory sign, for which Tenant shall pay its Proportionate Share.
Estoppel Certificate. Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days of request a commercially reasonable estoppel statement. Landlord and Tenant intend that any estoppel statement delivered pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the building or any interest therein and failure to execute and return such estoppel shall be a material breach of the Lease.
Eminent Domain. In case the whole of the Premises, or such part thereof that substantially interferes with the reasonable use of the Premises as a fire station, shall be taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or authority by exercise of the right of appropriation, condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking, either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority. Tenant shall not assert any claim against Landlord or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking and Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. In the event the amount of property or the type of estate taken shall not substantially interfere with the reasonable use of the Premises as a fire station, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire amount of the award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. If there is no substantial interference or if there is substantial interference, but neither party elects to terminate, Landlord shall promptly proceed to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as the Premises existed prior to such partial taking, to the extent possible by application of the condemnation proceeds only, and a proportionate allowance shall be made to Tenant for the rent corresponding to the time during which, and to the part of the Premises of which Tenant shall be so deprived on account of such taking and restoration. Nothing contained in this Section shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in any award made to Tenant for the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant. Each party waives the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 allowing either party to petition the Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the premises.
Attorneys' Fees. If either party commences an action against the other party arising out of or in connection with this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from the losing party reasonable attorney's fees and costs of suit.
Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder may be given by personal delivery or by United States certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to Tenant at the Premises 264
16498.00372\40646600.3
13 and to Landlord at 8353 Sierra Ave, Fontana, California 92335, or at such other address as the Landlord shall designate in writing.
Waiver; Accord and Satisfaction. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord on any default by Tenant shall impair such right or be construed as a waiver.
The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent rent shall not constitute a waiver of any other default; it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular rent payment involved. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the rent payment herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease.
Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Lease as to the performance of all terms, covenants, and conditions stated herein.
Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, all of the terms and conditions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Landlord may transfer its interest in the Premises without the consent of Tenant and such transfer or subsequent transfer shall not be deemed a violation on Landlord's part of any of the terms and conditions of this Lease.

1 COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT (the "Lease") is made and entered into by and between CITY OF FONTANA, a municipal corporation ("Landlord") and FONTANA FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT, a subsidiary district of the City of Fontana ("Tenant"), under the following terms and conditions:
Introduction. Landlord owns the commercial property located at 11500 Live Oak Avenue, Fontana, California, 92335, located in the City of Fontana California (APN 0237-201-27) (the “Property”). The Property is improved with Fire Station No. 74 and other improvements. Tenant has occupied Property since at least July 1, 2015, without payment of rent.
Description of the Leased Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord a portion of the Property consisting of approximately 65,340 square feet, known as 11500 Live Oak Avenue, referred to herein as the "Premises" and shown on Exhibit A.
Term, Occupancy, and Renewal.
a. Term. The term of this Lease shall commence on January 1, 2023 (the "Commencement Date") and shall continue until June 30, 2035. b. Occupancy. Tenant has been in occupancy of the Premises under a prior agreement, and subsequent month-to-month tenancy, which agreement and tenancy are hereby terminated by the execution of this Lease (except for such provisions which expressly survive). c. Option to Renew. Provided Tenant is not in default under any terms of this Lease, and in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord, Tenant is hereby granted an option to renew this Lease, under the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease, for the further term of 10 years from and after the expiration of the original term of this Lease as set forth under Section 3(a) (the "Renewal Term") by giving Landlord written notice of election of exercise option to at least 120 days prior to the expiration of the then unexpired term; provided, if Tenant fails to timely notify Landlord of election to extend for any option period, all succeeding option periods, if any, shall automatically expire and lapse and the Lease shall terminate at the end of the term then in effect.
Rent. The annual rent as of the Commencement Date shall be $0.89 per square foot per month, or $58,152.60 per month, and $348,915.60 for each six-month period (“Six-Month Period Payment”), subject to increase as provided in Section 4(d) below (“Base Rent”). Tenant shall, commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter on the first day of each sixmonth period, with the first payment due on January 2, 2023, pay Landlord such Six-Month Period Payment, without setoff, deduction or demand.
a. Back Rent. Tenant shall pay the back rent due for occupancy of the Property since July 1, 2015, in the total amount of $4,794,649.20 (“Back Rent”) to the Landlord. The terms of payment for Back Rent shall be subject to a separate agreement between the Parties, which shall be executed concurrently with this Lease.
b. Late Charge. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of rent will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease. If any installment of rent due 274
16498.00372\40646600.3
2 from Tenant is not received by Landlord within ten (10) days after it becomes due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of 5% of the overdue rent as a late charge. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to the overdue amount or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord.
c. Interest on Unpaid Rent. Aside from Back Rent, Rent or other charges under this Lease not paid within five (5) days of the date due shall, in addition to any late charges under Section 4(b) above, bear interest at the lesser of the maximum legal rate or 10% per annum from the date due until paid.
d. Annual Adjustment. Base Rent shall increase by 2% on July 1, 2023, and then annually at the end of each 12-month period by 2.0% (rounded to nearest full cent).
Place of Payment of Rent. Rent and all other sums which shall become due under this Lease, including but not limited to late charges and additional rent, shall be payable by hand delivery or mail at City of Fontana, 8353 Sierra Ave, Fontana, California 92335, or at such other place as Landlord may designate from time to time in writing. Mailed payments must be received (not postmarked) by Landlord by the date due.

Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in as good condition as when originally received, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire, earthquake, flood or act of God excepted, and including any repairs or improvements made by Tenant. If Tenant fails to maintain the Premises in good order and repair, after thirty (30) days' prior written notice, Landlord may, at its option, make such repairs, and Tenant shall pay the reasonable cost thereof as additional rent hereunder within ten (10) days after receipt of a written statement therefor.

Such destruction shall not terminate this Lease. If the existing laws do not permit the restoration, either party can terminate this Lease immediately by giving notice to the other party. Provided, however, if the cost of the restoration exceeds the amount of proceeds received from the insurance, or the estimate of time to fully restore the Premises exceeds the lesser of 270 days or the remaining Term of the Lease, Landlord can elect to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after determining that the restoration cost will exceed the insurance proceeds. b.

Default and Landlord's Remedies.
a. Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant:
(1) Tenant shall fail to pay when due any rent or any other monetary sum payable under this Lease.
(2) Tenant shall fail to observe, keep or perform any of the other terms, covenants, agreements or conditions contained in this Lease if such default continues for a period of ten (10) days after written notice by Landlord specifying the nature of the default with reasonable particularity, unless the nature of the default is such that more than ten (10) days is required to cure it and Tenant commences to cure it within such ten (10) -day period and thereafter diligently pursues it to completion.
(3) Tenant shall become bankrupt or insolvent or make a transfer in fraud of creditors, or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or take or have taken against Tenant any proceedings of any kind under any provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Act or under any other insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization act and, in the event any such proceedings are involuntary, Tenant is not discharged from the same within thirty (30) days thereafter. (4) A receiver is appointed for a substantial part of the assets of Tenant, and such receivership is not released within thirty (30) days. (5) The abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, or the vacation (hereby defined to be thirty (30) or more consecutive days of continual absence from the Premises) of the Premises by Tenant.
(6) This Lease or any estate of Tenant hereunder shall be levied upon by any attachment or execution and such levy is not released within thirty (30) days.
Notices given under this Section shall specify the alleged default and the applicable Lease provisions, and shall demand that Tenant perform the provisions of this Lease or pay the rent that is in arrears, as the case may be, within the applicable period of time, or quit the Premises. b. Landlord's Remedies. If any default by Tenant shall occur, and following notice of default as required by this Lease (for the period applicable to the default under the applicable provision of this Lease), Landlord shall have the following remedies in addition to all other rights 283
16498.00372\40646600.3
11 and remedies provided by law or equity, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively or in the alternative.
(1) Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving written notice of such intention to terminate. In the event that Landlord shall so elect to terminate this Lease, then Landlord may recover from Tenant:
(a) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(d) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and (e) At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
As used in Subparagraphs (a) and (b) above of this Section, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate an individual is permitted by law to charge. As used in subparagraph (c) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
(2) In the event of the vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, or in the event that Landlord shall elect to reenter as provided herein or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then Landlord shall have the remedy specified by Civil Code Section 1951.4, in which Landlord may from time to time recover all rental as it becomes due or relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account of Tenant on such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. In the event that Landlord shall elect so to relet, then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied first, to the payment of any indebtedness, other than rent due hereunder, owed by Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any cost (including commissions) of such reletting; third, to the payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; fourth, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent hereunder, be less than the rent payable during that month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord upon demand.
Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any and all costs and expenses incurred 284
16498.00372\40646600.3
12 by Landlord in such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.
(3) No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Signs. All signs and graphics of every kind visible in or from public view or corridors, or the exterior of the Premises, whether inside or outside the Premises, shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval and shall be subject to compliance with any applicable Laws, including local sign ordinances and Historic Preservation laws. Landlord may provide, at its option, a building directory sign, for which Tenant shall pay its Proportionate Share.
Estoppel Certificate. Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days of request a commercially reasonable estoppel statement. Landlord and Tenant intend that any estoppel statement delivered pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the building or any interest therein and failure to execute and return such estoppel shall be a material breach of the Lease.
Eminent Domain. In case the whole of the Premises, or such part thereof that substantially interferes with the reasonable use of the Premises as a fire station, shall be taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or authority by exercise of the right of appropriation, condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking, either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority. Tenant shall not assert any claim against Landlord or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking and Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. In the event the amount of property or the type of estate taken shall not substantially interfere with the reasonable use of the Premises as a fire station, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire amount of the award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. If there is no substantial interference or if there is substantial interference, but neither party elects to terminate, Landlord shall promptly proceed to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as the Premises existed prior to such partial taking, to the extent possible by application of the condemnation proceeds only, and a proportionate allowance shall be made to Tenant for the rent corresponding to the time during which, and to the part of the Premises of which Tenant shall be so deprived on account of such taking and restoration. Nothing contained in this Section shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in any award made to Tenant for the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant. Each party waives the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 allowing either party to petition the Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the premises.
Attorneys' Fees. If either party commences an action against the other party arising out of or in connection with this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from the losing party reasonable attorney's fees and costs of suit.
Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder may be given by personal delivery or by United States certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to Tenant at the Premises 285
16498.00372\40646600.3
13 and to Landlord at 8353 Sierra Ave, Fontana, California 92335, or at such other address as the Landlord shall designate in writing.
Waiver; Accord and Satisfaction. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord on any default by Tenant shall impair such right or be construed as a waiver.
The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent rent shall not constitute a waiver of any other default; it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular rent payment involved. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the rent payment herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease.
Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Lease as to the performance of all terms, covenants, and conditions stated herein.
Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, all of the terms and conditions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

16498.00372\40646600.3

1 COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT (the "Lease") is made and entered into by and between CITY OF FONTANA, a municipal corporation ("Landlord") and FONTANA FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT, a subsidiary district of the City of Fontana ("Tenant"), under the following terms and conditions:
Introduction. Landlord owns the commercial property located at 17459 Slover Avenue, Fontana, California, 92335, located in the City of Fontana California (APN 0256-011-22) (the “Property”). The Property is improved with Fire Station No. 77 and other improvements. Tenant has occupied Property since at least July 1, 2015, without payment of rent.
Description of the Leased Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord a portion of the Property consisting of approximately 87,555 square feet, known as 17459 Slover Avenue, referred to herein as the "Premises" and shown on Exhibit A.
Term, Occupancy, and Renewal.
a. Term. The term of this Lease shall commence on January 1, 2023 (the "Commencement Date") and shall continue until June 30, 2035. b. Occupancy. Tenant has been in occupancy of the Premises under a prior agreement, and subsequent month-to-month tenancy, which agreement and tenancy are hereby terminated by the execution of this Lease (except for such provisions which expressly survive). c. Option to Renew. Provided Tenant is not in default under any terms of this Lease, and in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord, Tenant is hereby granted an option to renew this Lease, under the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease, for the further term of 10 years from and after the expiration of the original term of this Lease as set forth under Section 3(a) (the "Renewal Term") by giving Landlord written notice of election of exercise option to at least 120 days prior to the expiration of the then unexpired term; provided, if Tenant fails to timely notify Landlord of election to extend for any option period, all succeeding option periods, if any, shall automatically expire and lapse and the Lease shall terminate at the end of the term then in effect.
Rent. The annual rent as of the Commencement Date shall be $0.89 per square foot per month, or $77,923.95 per month, and $467,543.70 for each six-month period (“Six-Month Period Payment”), subject to increase as provided in Section 4(d) below (“Base Rent”). Tenant shall, commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter on the first day of each sixmonth period, with the first payment due on January 2, 2023, pay Landlord such Six-Month Period Payment, without setoff, deduction or demand.
a. Back Rent. Tenant shall pay the back rent due for occupancy of the Property since July 1, 2015, in the total amount of $6,424,785.90 (“Back Rent”) to the Landlord. The terms of payment for Back Rent shall be subject to a separate agreement between the Parties, which shall be executed concurrently with this Lease.
b. Late Charge. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of rent will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease. If any installment of rent due 295
16498.00372\40646600.3
2 from Tenant is not received by Landlord within ten (10) days after it becomes due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of 5% of the overdue rent as a late charge. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to the overdue amount or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord.
c. Interest on Unpaid Rent. Aside from Back Rent, Rent or other charges under this Lease not paid within five (5) days of the date due shall, in addition to any late charges under Section 4(b) above, bear interest at the lesser of the maximum legal rate or 10% per annum from the date due until paid.
d. Annual Adjustment. Base Rent shall increase by 2% on July 1, 2023, and then annually at the end of each 12-month period by 2.0% (rounded to nearest full cent).
Place of Payment of Rent. Rent and all other sums which shall become due under this Lease, including but not limited to late charges and additional rent, shall be payable by hand delivery or mail at City of Fontana, 8353 Sierra Ave, Fontana, California 92335, or at such other place as Landlord may designate from time to time in writing. Mailed payments must be received (not postmarked) by Landlord by the date due.
Condition of, and Improvements to, Premises.
a. Improvements. Under this Lease, Landlord shall have no obligation or responsibility, actual or implied, to install, construct, accommodate, or make any improvements to the Premises prior to, or as a condition of, Tenant's occupation of the Premises. b. As-Is Condition. Tenant warrants and agrees that Tenant has inspected the Premises. Tenant agrees to take possession of the Premises in an AS-IS condition (which exists on the date this Lease is signed) and Tenant further agrees that, if Tenant wishes to construct any improvement in the Premises, Tenant shall comply with all requirements in Exhibit B as well as Section 13 (Alterations and Liens) of this Lease. Landlord makes no representations regarding the condition, status, compliance with laws or suitability for a particular purpose for Tenant's use. c. Condition Upon Surrender. Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in as good condition as when originally received, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire, earthquake, flood or act of God excepted, and including any repairs or improvements made by Tenant. If Tenant fails to maintain the Premises in good order and repair, after thirty (30) days' prior written notice, Landlord may, at its option, make such repairs, and Tenant shall pay the reasonable cost thereof as additional rent hereunder within ten (10) days after receipt of a written statement therefor. In the event the giving of thirty (30) days' prior notice may result in additional damage to the Premises, Landlord may make such repairs, at Tenant's expense, without thirty days' prior written notice.
d. Inspection by Certified Access Specialist. Landlord discloses that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist as referenced in California Civil Code Section 1938 subsection (e) which provides: "A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does 296
16498.00372\40646600.3
3 not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant.
The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises." Pursuant to the foregoing Section 1938(e), Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, if Tenant wishes to have the Premises inspected by a CASp: (i) Tenant must notify Landlord on or before the date when Tenant executes this Lease pursuant to the election below; (ii) the inspection will be at Tenant's sole cost and expense; (iii) the inspection must be scheduled through Landlord and in coordination with the Building’s property manager; (iv) any repairs or modifications necessary to correct any violation of construction-related accessibility standards that is noted in the CASp report shall be Tenant’s responsibility; and (v) Tenant must provide a copy of the CASp report to Landlord on completion.

Tenant shall not commit or allow to be committed any waste in or upon the Premises.

In the event that any unauthorized storage shall occur then Landlord shall have the right, without notice, in addition to any other rights and remedies that it may have, to remove the property and charge the cost to Tenant, which cost shall be payable as additional rent immediately upon demand by Landlord.

Any alterations, additions, or improvements affixed to the Premises, except furnishings, equipment, and trade fixtures, shall, at Landlord's option, become part of the real property and belong to Landlord on expiration or termination of the term and any extension thereof.

If an assignment or subletting involves a use other than that permitted in Paragraph 7 above, Tenant must comply with said Paragraph 7.
Consent to one assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person shall not be deemed to be consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person.
Consent to any such assignment or subletting shall in no way relieve Tenant of any liability under this Lease. Any such assignment or subletting without such consent shall be void, and shall, at the option of the Landlord, constitute a default under the terms of this Lease.

Tenant shall obtain and maintain at all times during the Term of this Lease insurance against claims for injuries to personal or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the Lease by the Tenant, its agents, representatives, employees, invitees, or subcontractors.

The responsibility to fund any financial obligation for self-insurance, the election not to insure, and/or deductibles shall be assumed by, for the account of, and at the sole risk of each party. The application of coverage within this self-insurance, election not to insure, and/or deductible shall be deemed covered in accordance with the policy forms set forth in this Section 17.
Destruction of Premises.
a. Destruction Due to Risk Covered by Insurance. If, during the term of this Lease and any renewal term, the Premises or the Property and other improvements in which the Premises are located are totally or partially destroyed from a risk covered by insurance carried by either Tenant or Landlord for the Property, rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, Landlord shall restore the Premises or the Property, and other improvements in which the Premises are located, to substantially the same condition as they were immediately before destruction if they can be repaired within 270 days from date of destruction. Such destruction shall not terminate this Lease. If the existing laws do not permit the restoration, either party can terminate this Lease immediately by giving notice to the other party. Provided, however, if the cost of the restoration exceeds the amount of proceeds received from the insurance, or the estimate of time to fully restore the Premises exceeds the lesser of 270 days or the remaining Term of the Lease, Landlord can elect to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after determining that the restoration cost will exceed the insurance proceeds. b. Destruction Due to Risk Not Covered by Insurance. If, during the term of this Lease and any renewal term, the Premises or the Property and other improvements in which the Premises are located are totally or partially destroyed by a risk not covered by the insurance, rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, Landlord can elect to terminate 303

10 this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after determining the restoration cost and replacement value.
c. Abatement or Reduction of Rent. In case of destruction, there shall be an abatement or reduction of rent between the date of destruction and the date of substantial completion of restoration based on the extent to which the destruction interferes with Tenant's use of the Premises.
d. Waiver of Civil Code Sections. Tenant waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(2) and California Civil Code Section 1933(4) with respect to any destruction of the Premises.
Default and Landlord's Remedies.

(1) Tenant shall fail to pay when due any rent or any other monetary sum payable under this Lease.
(2) Tenant shall fail to observe, keep or perform any of the other terms, covenants, agreements or conditions contained in this Lease if such default continues for a period of ten (10) days after written notice by Landlord specifying the nature of the default with reasonable particularity, unless the nature of the default is such that more than ten (10) days is required to cure it and Tenant commences to cure it within such ten (10) -day period and thereafter diligently pursues it to completion.
(3) Tenant shall become bankrupt or insolvent or make a transfer in fraud of creditors, or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or take or have taken against Tenant any proceedings of any kind under any provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Act or under any other insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization act and, in the event any such proceedings are involuntary, Tenant is not discharged from the same within thirty (30) days thereafter.

If any default by Tenant shall occur, and following notice of default as required by this Lease (for the period applicable to the default under the applicable provision of this Lease), Landlord shall have the following remedies in addition to all other rights 304
16498.00372\40646600.3
11 and remedies provided by law or equity, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively or in the alternative.
(1) Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving written notice of such intention to terminate. In the event that Landlord shall so elect to terminate this Lease, then Landlord may recover from Tenant:
(a) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(d) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and (e) At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
As used in Subparagraphs (a) and (b) above of this Section, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate an individual is permitted by law to charge. As used in subparagraph (c) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
(2) In the event of the vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, or in the event that Landlord shall elect to reenter as provided herein or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then Landlord shall have the remedy specified by Civil Code Section 1951.4, in which Landlord may from time to time recover all rental as it becomes due or relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account of Tenant on such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. In the event that Landlord shall elect so to relet, then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied first, to the payment of any indebtedness, other than rent due hereunder, owed by Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any cost (including commissions) of such reletting; third, to the payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; fourth, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent hereunder, be less than the rent payable during that month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord upon demand.
Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any and all costs and expenses incurred 305
16498.00372\40646600.3
12 by Landlord in such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.
(3) No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Signs. All signs and graphics of every kind visible in or from public view or corridors, or the exterior of the Premises, whether inside or outside the Premises, shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval and shall be subject to compliance with any applicable Laws, including local sign ordinances and Historic Preservation laws. Landlord may provide, at its option, a building directory sign, for which Tenant shall pay its Proportionate Share.
Estoppel Certificate. Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days of request a commercially reasonable estoppel statement. Landlord and Tenant intend that any estoppel statement delivered pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the building or any interest therein and failure to execute and return such estoppel shall be a material breach of the Lease.
Eminent Domain. In case the whole of the Premises, or such part thereof that substantially interferes with the reasonable use of the Premises as a fire station, shall be taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or authority by exercise of the right of appropriation, condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking, either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority. Tenant shall not assert any claim against Landlord or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking and Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. In the event the amount of property or the type of estate taken shall not substantially interfere with the reasonable use of the Premises as a fire station, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire amount of the award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. If there is no substantial interference or if there is substantial interference, but neither party elects to terminate, Landlord shall promptly proceed to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as the Premises existed prior to such partial taking, to the extent possible by application of the condemnation proceeds only, and a proportionate allowance shall be made to Tenant for the rent corresponding to the time during which, and to the part of the Premises of which Tenant shall be so deprived on account of such taking and restoration. Nothing contained in this Section shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in any award made to Tenant for the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant. Each party waives the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 allowing either party to petition the Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the premises.
Attorneys' Fees. If either party commences an action against the other party arising out of or in connection with this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from the losing party reasonable attorney's fees and costs of suit.
Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder may be given by personal delivery or by United States certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to Tenant at the Premises 306
16498.00372\40646600.3
13 and to Landlord at 8353 Sierra Ave, Fontana, California 92335, or at such other address as the Landlord shall designate in writing.
Waiver; Accord and Satisfaction. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord on any default by Tenant shall impair such right or be construed as a waiver.
The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent rent shall not constitute a waiver of any other default; it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular rent payment involved. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the rent payment herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease.
Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Lease as to the performance of all terms, covenants, and conditions stated herein.
Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, all of the terms and conditions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. In the event of any transfer, assignment or other conveyance or transfers of any such title or tenant, Landlord herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be automatically freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer. Landlord may transfer its interest in the Premises without the consent of Tenant and such transfer or subsequent transfer shall not be deemed a violation on Landlord's part of any of the terms and conditions of this Lease.

1 COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS COMMERCIAL LEASE AGREEMENT (the "Lease") is made and entered into by and between CITY OF FONTANA, a municipal corporation ("Landlord") and FONTANA FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT, a subsidiary district of the City of Fontana ("Tenant"), under the following terms and conditions:
Introduction. Landlord owns the commercial property located at 7110 Citrus Avenue, Fontana, California, 92335, located in the City of Fontana California (APN 0228-233-01) (the “Property”). The Property is improved with Fire Station No. 78 and other improvements. Tenant has occupied Property since at least July 1, 2015, without payment of rent.
Description of the Leased Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord a portion of the Property consisting of approximately 71,955 square feet, known as 7110 Citrus Avenue, referred to herein as the "Premises" and shown on Exhibit A.
Term, Occupancy, and Renewal.
a. Term. The term of this Lease shall commence on January 1, 2023 (the "Commencement Date") and shall continue until June 30, 2035. b. Occupancy. Tenant has been in occupancy of the Premises under a prior agreement, and subsequent month-to-month tenancy, which agreement and tenancy are hereby terminated by the execution of this Lease (except for such provisions which expressly survive). c. Option to Renew. Provided Tenant is not in default under any terms of this Lease, and in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord, Tenant is hereby granted an option to renew this Lease, under the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease, for the further term of 10 years from and after the expiration of the original term of this Lease as set forth under Section 3(a) (the "Renewal Term") by giving Landlord written notice of election of exercise option to at least 120 days prior to the expiration of the then unexpired term; provided, if Tenant fails to timely notify Landlord of election to extend for any option period, all succeeding option periods, if any, shall automatically expire and lapse and the Lease shall terminate at the end of the term then in effect.
Rent. The annual rent as of the Commencement Date shall be $0.89 per square foot per month, or $64,039.95 per month, and $384,239.70 for each six-month period (“Six-Month Period Payment”), subject to increase as provided in Section 4(d) below (“Base Rent”). Tenant shall, commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter on the first day of each sixmonth period, with the first payment due on January 2, 2023, pay Landlord such Six-Month Period Payment, without setoff, deduction or demand.
a. Back Rent. Tenant shall pay the back rent due for occupancy of the Property since July 1, 2015, in the total amount of $5,280,057.90 (“Back Rent”) to the Landlord. The terms of payment for Back Rent shall be subject to a separate agreement between the Parties, which shall be executed concurrently with this Lease.
b. Late Charge. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of rent will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease. If any installment of rent due 316
16498.00372\40646600.3
2 from Tenant is not received by Landlord within ten (10) days after it becomes due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of 5% of the overdue rent as a late charge. The parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to the overdue amount or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord.
c. Interest on Unpaid Rent. Aside from Back Rent, Rent or other charges under this Lease not paid within five (5) days of the date due shall, in addition to any late charges under Section 4(b) above, bear interest at the lesser of the maximum legal rate or 10% per annum from the date due until paid.
d. Annual Adjustment. Base Rent shall increase by 2% on July 1, 2023, and then annually at the end of each 12-month period by 2.0% (rounded to nearest full cent).
Place of Payment of Rent. Rent and all other sums which shall become due under this Lease, including but not limited to late charges and additional rent, shall be payable by hand delivery or mail at City of Fontana, 8353 Sierra Ave, Fontana, California 92335, or at such other place as Landlord may designate from time to time in writing. Mailed payments must be received (not postmarked) by Landlord by the date due.
Condition of, and Improvements to, Premises.
a. Improvements. Under this Lease, Landlord shall have no obligation or responsibility, actual or implied, to install, construct, accommodate, or make any improvements to the Premises prior to, or as a condition of, Tenant's occupation of the Premises. b. As-Is Condition. Tenant warrants and agrees that Tenant has inspected the Premises. Tenant agrees to take possession of the Premises in an AS-IS condition (which exists on the date this Lease is signed) and Tenant further agrees that, if Tenant wishes to construct any improvement in the Premises, Tenant shall comply with all requirements in Exhibit B as well as Section 13 (Alterations and Liens) of this Lease. Landlord makes no representations regarding the condition, status, compliance with laws or suitability for a particular purpose for Tenant's use. c. Condition Upon Surrender. Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in as good condition as when originally received, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire, earthquake, flood or act of God excepted, and including any repairs or improvements made by Tenant. If Tenant fails to maintain the Premises in good order and repair, after thirty (30) days' prior written notice, Landlord may, at its option, make such repairs, and Tenant shall pay the reasonable cost thereof as additional rent hereunder within ten (10) days after receipt of a written statement therefor. In the event the giving of thirty (30) days' prior notice may result in additional damage to the Premises, Landlord may make such repairs, at Tenant's expense, without thirty days' prior written notice.
d. Inspection by Certified Access Specialist. Landlord discloses that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist as referenced in California Civil Code Section 1938 subsection (e) which provides: "A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does 317
16498.00372\40646600.3
3 not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant.
The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises." Pursuant to the foregoing Section 1938(e), Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, if Tenant wishes to have the Premises inspected by a CASp: (i) Tenant must notify Landlord on or before the date when Tenant executes this Lease pursuant to the election below; (ii) the inspection will be at Tenant's sole cost and expense; (iii) the inspection must be scheduled through Landlord and in coordination with the Building’s property manager; (iv) any repairs or modifications necessary to correct any violation of construction-related accessibility standards that is noted in the CASp report shall be Tenant’s responsibility; and (v) Tenant must provide a copy of the CASp report to Landlord on completion. By initialing below, Tenant represents that:
Tenant wishes to have a CASp inspection of the Premises Initials: ______________ Tenant hereby waives its right to have a CASp inspection of the Premises Initials: ____________ Use. The Premises shall be used only for the operation of Fire Station No. 71 and for no other purpose (“Permitted Use”). Tenant shall not use any portion of the Premises for purposes other than those specified without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord.
Uses Prohibited. In addition to uses prohibited pursuant to Paragraph 7, Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises nor bring or keep anything therein which is not within the permitted use of the Premises which will in any way increase the existing rate of or affect any fire or other insurance upon the Property or any of its contents, or cause a cancellation of any insurance policy covering the Property or any part thereof or any of its contents. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Property or injure or annoy them or use or allow the Premises to be used for any improper, immoral, unlawful or objectionable purpose; nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises.

Landlord shall not be responsible for any interruptions or disturbance of service regardless of whether Tenant is paying directly for such services or if such services are being contracted for by Landlord, nor shall there be any abatement of rent resulting from any cessation or interruption of utility service or other service contemplated by this section. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(1) or any other applicable existing or future law, ordinance or governmental regulation permitting the termination of this Lease due to the interruption of failure of any services to be provided under this Lease.

If any alterations require additional changes to comply with Laws which are triggered by Tenant's alterations, all such resulting requirements to comply with Laws shall be at Tenant's expense and any Landlord consent to such alterations shall be conditioned on Tenant's payment for same. Any alterations, additions, or improvements affixed to the Premises, except furnishings, equipment, and trade fixtures, shall, at Landlord's option, become part of the real property and belong to Landlord on expiration or termination of the term and any extension thereof. If Landlord consents to the making of any alteration, additions, or improvements to the Premises, they shall be made at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Tenant shall comply with the provisions of Exhibit B with regard to all Alterations and Improvements.

Tenant shall file a Notice of Completion after completion of any alteration or improvement and provide Landlord with a copy thereof.
Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of a set of “as built” drawings of any such work.

Tenant shall not either voluntarily, or by operation of law, assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or encumber this Lease or any interest therein, and shall not sublet the said Premises or any part thereof, or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto, or allow any other person (the employees, agents, servants and invitees of Tenant excepted) to occupy or use the said Premises, or any portion thereof, without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If an assignment or subletting involves a use other than that permitted in Paragraph 7 above, Tenant must comply with said Paragraph 7.
Consent to one assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person shall not be deemed to be consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person.
Consent to any such assignment or subletting shall in no way relieve Tenant of any liability under this Lease. Any such assignment or subletting without such consent shall be void, and shall, at the option of the Landlord, constitute a default under the terms of this Lease. No sublease or assignment shall release Tenant from continuing liability hereunder. In the event that Landlord shall consent to a sublease or assignment hereunder, Tenant shall pay Landlord reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred in connection with the processing of documents necessary to giving of such consent. Any excess consideration above the rental rate provided in this Lease Tenant is entitled to as a result of any assignment or sublease shall be divided and paid 50% to Tenant and 50% to Landlord; provided, however, that if Tenant is in default under this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to all such excess consideration

Tenant’s indemnity is not intended to nor shall it relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease to the extent such policies cover the results of negligent acts or omissions of Landlord, its employees, agents, volunteers, contractors, council members, board members and officers or the failure of Landlord to perform any of its obligations under this Lease. The obligations of Tenant under this Section 16(b) shall survive the termination or earlier expiration of this Lease. c. Exemption of Landlord from Liability.

Tenant hereby agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for injury to Tenant's business or any loss of income therefrom or for damage to the property of Tenant, or injury to or illness or death of Tenant or any Tenant Party or any other person in or about the Premises, whether such damage, illness or injury is caused by fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage, leakage or other defects of sprinklers, wires, appliances, ventilation, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause, and whether said damage, illness or injury results from conditions arising upon the Premises, upon other portions of the Property or from other sources or places, and regardless of whether the cause of such damage, illness or injury or the means of repairing the same is inaccessible to Tenant, except only damage, illness or injury caused solely by Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Insurance. Tenant shall obtain and maintain at all times during the Term of this Lease insurance against claims for injuries to personal or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the Lease by the Tenant, its agents, representatives, employees, invitees, or subcontractors.

Ratings, Certificates. All policies shall be taken out with insurers licensed to do business in California with a current Best Rating of (A, XIII) and in form satisfactory from time to time to Landlord. Certificates of insurance evidencing all such insurance and acceptable to the Landlord shall be filed with Landlord prior to occupancy of the Premises and at least ten (10) days prior to the expiration of the term of each policy thereafter. Such certificates of insurance must specifically show all the special policy conditions required in this Paragraph 9, including "additional insured," "waiver of subrogation," "notice of cancellation," and "primary insurance" 323

Best Company, and (ii) may be satisfied by a primary policy or combination of primary and umbrella policies. The insurance provisions set forth in this Section 17 set forth the minimum amounts and scopes of coverage to be maintained by Landlord and Tenant and are not to be construed in any way as a limitation on each party's liability under this Lease. Landlord, as a public entity, may satisfy any of its insurance requirements by use of self-insurance, deductible, captive insurance company or risk pool. The responsibility to fund any financial obligation for self-insurance, the election not to insure, and/or deductibles shall be assumed by, for the account of, and at the sole risk of each party. The application of coverage within this self-insurance, election not to insure, and/or deductible shall be deemed covered in accordance with the policy forms set forth in this Section 17.
Destruction of Premises.
a. Destruction Due to Risk Covered by Insurance. If, during the term of this Lease and any renewal term, the Premises or the Property and other improvements in which the Premises are located are totally or partially destroyed from a risk covered by insurance carried by either Tenant or Landlord for the Property, rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, Landlord shall restore the Premises or the Property, and other improvements in which the Premises are located, to substantially the same condition as they were immediately before destruction if they can be repaired within 270 days from date of destruction. Such destruction shall not terminate this Lease. If the existing laws do not permit the restoration, either party can terminate this Lease immediately by giving notice to the other party. Provided, however, if the cost of the restoration exceeds the amount of proceeds received from the insurance, or the estimate of time to fully restore the Premises exceeds the lesser of 270 days or the remaining Term of the Lease, Landlord can elect to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after determining that the restoration cost will exceed the insurance proceeds. b. Destruction Due to Risk Not Covered by Insurance. If, during the term of this Lease and any renewal term, the Premises or the Property and other improvements in which the Premises are located are totally or partially destroyed by a risk not covered by the insurance, rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, Landlord can elect to terminate 324
16498.00372\40646600.3
10 this Lease by giving notice to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after determining the restoration cost and replacement value.
c. Abatement or Reduction of Rent. In case of destruction, there shall be an abatement or reduction of rent between the date of destruction and the date of substantial completion of restoration based on the extent to which the destruction interferes with Tenant's use of the Premises.
d. Waiver of Civil Code Sections. Tenant waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(2) and California Civil Code Section 1933(4) with respect to any destruction of the Premises.
Default and Landlord's Remedies.
a. Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant:
(1) Tenant shall fail to pay when due any rent or any other monetary sum payable under this Lease.
(2) Tenant shall fail to observe, keep or perform any of the other terms, covenants, agreements or conditions contained in this Lease if such default continues for a period of ten (10) days after written notice by Landlord specifying the nature of the default with reasonable particularity, unless the nature of the default is such that more than ten (10) days is required to cure it and Tenant commences to cure it within such ten (10) -day period and thereafter diligently pursues it to completion.
(3) Tenant shall become bankrupt or insolvent or make a transfer in fraud of creditors, or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or take or have taken against Tenant any proceedings of any kind under any provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Act or under any other insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization act and, in the event any such proceedings are involuntary, Tenant is not discharged from the same within thirty (30) days thereafter. (4) A receiver is appointed for a substantial part of the assets of Tenant, and such receivership is not released within thirty (30) days. (5) The abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, or the vacation (hereby defined to be thirty (30) or more consecutive days of continual absence from the Premises) of the Premises by Tenant.
(6) This Lease or any estate of Tenant hereunder shall be levied upon by any attachment or execution and such levy is not released within thirty (30) days.
Notices given under this Section shall specify the alleged default and the applicable Lease provisions, and shall demand that Tenant perform the provisions of this Lease or pay the rent that is in arrears, as the case may be, within the applicable period of time, or quit the Premises. b. Landlord's Remedies. If any default by Tenant shall occur, and following notice of default as required by this Lease (for the period applicable to the default under the applicable provision of this Lease), Landlord shall have the following remedies in addition to all other rights 325
16498.00372\40646600.3
11 and remedies provided by law or equity, to which Landlord may resort cumulatively or in the alternative.
(1) Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving written notice of such intention to terminate. In the event that Landlord shall so elect to terminate this Lease, then Landlord may recover from Tenant:
(a) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(b) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(d) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and (e) At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
As used in Subparagraphs (a) and (b) above of this Section, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate an individual is permitted by law to charge. As used in subparagraph (c) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
(2) In the event of the vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, or in the event that Landlord shall elect to reenter as provided herein or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then Landlord shall have the remedy specified by Civil Code Section 1951.4, in which Landlord may from time to time recover all rental as it becomes due or relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account of Tenant on such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. In the event that Landlord shall elect so to relet, then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied first, to the payment of any indebtedness, other than rent due hereunder, owed by Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any cost (including commissions) of such reletting; third, to the payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; fourth, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent hereunder, be less than the rent payable during that month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord upon demand.
Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any and all costs and expenses incurred 326
16498.00372\40646600.3
12 by Landlord in such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.
(3) No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Signs. All signs and graphics of every kind visible in or from public view or corridors, or the exterior of the Premises, whether inside or outside the Premises, shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval and shall be subject to compliance with any applicable Laws, including local sign ordinances and Historic Preservation laws. Landlord may provide, at its option, a building directory sign, for which Tenant shall pay its Proportionate Share.
Estoppel Certificate. Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days of request a commercially reasonable estoppel statement. Landlord and Tenant intend that any estoppel statement delivered pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the building or any interest therein and failure to execute and return such estoppel shall be a material breach of the Lease.
Eminent Domain. In case the whole of the Premises, or such part thereof that substantially interferes with the reasonable use of the Premises as a fire station, shall be taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or authority by exercise of the right of appropriation, condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking, either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority. Tenant shall not assert any claim against Landlord or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking and Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. In the event the amount of property or the type of estate taken shall not substantially interfere with the reasonable use of the Premises as a fire station, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire amount of the award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. If there is no substantial interference or if there is substantial interference, but neither party elects to terminate, Landlord shall promptly proceed to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as the Premises existed prior to such partial taking, to the extent possible by application of the condemnation proceeds only, and a proportionate allowance shall be made to Tenant for the rent corresponding to the time during which, and to the part of the Premises of which Tenant shall be so deprived on account of such taking and restoration. Nothing contained in this Section shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in any award made to Tenant for the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant. Each party waives the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 allowing either party to petition the Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the premises.
Attorneys' Fees. If either party commences an action against the other party arising out of or in connection with this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from the losing party reasonable attorney's fees and costs of suit.
Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder may be given by personal delivery or by United States certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to Tenant at the Premises 327
16498.00372\40646600.3
13 and to Landlord at 8353 Sierra Ave, Fontana, California 92335, or at such other address as the Landlord shall designate in writing.
Waiver; Accord and Satisfaction. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord on any default by Tenant shall impair such right or be construed as a waiver.
The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent rent shall not constitute a waiver of any other default; it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular rent payment involved. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the rent payment herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease.
Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Lease as to the performance of all terms, covenants, and conditions stated herein.
Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, all of the terms and conditions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. In the event of any transfer, assignment or other conveyance or transfers of any such title or tenant, Landlord herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be automatically freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer. Landlord may transfer its interest in the Premises without the consent of Tenant and such transfer or subsequent transfer shall not be deemed a violation on Landlord's part of any of the terms and conditions of this Lease.
Titles and Definitions. The titles of paragraphs herein are for identification only. They shall not be considered to be a part of this Lease and shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation thereof. The words "Landlord" and "Tenant" as used in this Lease shall include both singular, plural, masculine, feminine, and neuter as the context shall require.
