adjustment(s) may result in a decrease, the effective Lease rate shall never be based upon a rate which is less than the original base annual rent.

In those years in which the interest rate on Landlord’s mortgage encumbering the real estate is adjusted, the base annual rent shall be adjusted based upon 100% of the increase or decrease of the mortgage interest rate (as and when the mortgage interest rate adjustment occurs) as well as the CPI index adjustment set forth hereinabove, provided there shall be no adjustment in the interest rate on Landlord’s mortgage during the initial five (5) lease years.

5. NET RENTAL. It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Lease is a “triple net Lease” and that the rentals payable to Landlord shall, except for those specifically identified obligations of Landlord set forth in paragraph 14 below, be a net rental and Tenant, as hereinafter more particularly set forth, shall pay any and all taxes, costs and expenses arising from the use and occupancy of the leased premises. If a sales tax or other similar tax . is imposed against Landlord on the rentals due pursuant to this Lease Agreement during the term of this Lease or any extension thereof, Tenant shall pay as additional rent such tax as may be imposed. In no event, however, shall Tenant be required to pay any income tax based on the receipt of the rentals by Landlord.

6. TAXES. Tenant shall have the responsibility of paying, as additional rent, all real estate taxes, special assessments or similar charges levied against the leased premises and the improvements thereon by virtue of any present or future law of the United States of America, the State of Iowa, any county or municipality, or any political subdivision of any of the aforesaid. On the first day of each month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, one twelfth (1/12) of the estimated real estate taxes, special assessments, or other charges to become due during the following twelve (12) month period, which funds shall be applied by Landlord to payment of said taxes as the same become due and payable. Landlord will maintain such payments in a non-interest bearing account. Estimated tax payments will be made on the best information currently available. As of the end of each fiscal tax year, any overpayments will be credited and any underpayment will be added in computing the estimated taxes to be paid for the following fiscal tax year. As a new millage rate becomes known or a new assessed value becomes known, the same adjustments will be made as outlined above. Tenant shall have the responsibility of paying any increase in the real estate taxes caused by any other improvements constructed by or at the direction of Tenant. In the event Landlord pays any taxes, assessments, or charges from the funds in its possession, it will furnish Tenant with receipts showing the payments made. In the event Landlord fails to properly apply any funds in its possession to the payment of taxes, Tenant may pay the same and deduct the amount thereof, together with interest thereon at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum until fully repaid, from the rentals payable hereunder. Taxes payable under the provisions of this paragraph shall be prorated as of the date tills Lease commences. Taxes payable for the year the Lease terminates shall be prorated as of the date the Lease expires and Tenant’s share of those taxes shall be due and payable with the final month’s rent

payment. In the event any special assessments are made against the premises payable in annual installments at the option of the taxpayer, Tenant will only be obligated to pay such installments, together with interest or other carrying charge, as shall become due and payable during the Lease term.

In the event of partial destruction, Landlord shall repair such damages within ninety (90) days of its occurrence unless and only to the extent prevented from so doing by acts of God, the elements, the public enemy, strikes, riots, insurrection, government regulations, city ordinances, labor, material or transportation shortages, or other causes beyond Landlord’s reasonable control.

In the event of a total destruction or damage of the leased premise so that Tenant is not able to conduct its business on the premises or the then current legal use for which the premises are being used and which damages cannot be repaired within ninety (90) days, this Lease may be terminated at the option of either Landlord or Tenant. Such termination in such event shall be effected by written notice of one party to the other, within forty-five (45) days after such destruction. Tenant shall surrender possession within ten (10) days after such notice issues, and each party shall be released from all future obligations hereunder, Tenant paying rental pro rata only to the date of such destruction.

All re-plantings and re-landscaping shall be governed by the then current Landscaping Standards applicable to the Lot.

8. Required Development. The Owner shall commence the construction of improvements on the Lot in accordance with approved plans and specifications within one year of his purchase of the Lot from the Developer. If the construction is not timely commenced, or once commended, not diligently pursued to completion, the Owner shall nonetheless be required to install acceptable landscaping on the entire Lot. Such landscaping shall comply with the requirements of paragraph 7 and shall include the sodding of the entire ground surface of the Lot. If the Owner fails to either install or maintain the landscaping, Developer shall have the right, privilege and license (but not the obligation) to do so, and all amounts expended by Developer, together with a surcharge of ten percent of cost for overhead shall be, upon written demand of Developer, immediately due and payable by the Owner. If not paid by the Owner with thirty days of demand, the charges shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent per annum and shall be collectible by all lawful means.

9. Option to Repurchase. If an Owner fails to commence construction of improvements on the Lot within one year of its purchase of the Lot from Developer or, after commencement of construction, fails to diligently pursue the construction to completion, so that the development is completed in substantial accordance with plans and specifications approved by Developer on or before the second anniversary date of the Owner’s purchase of the Lot from Developer, then Developer shall have the option to repurchase the Lot for the same price paid by the Owner to Developer. This option shall be exercised by Developer within ninety (90) days of the event giving rise to such option by written notice to said Owner of its successors in interest. If the option is not so timely exercised, it shall expire and be of no further force or effect. The notice shall specify a closing date between thirty (30) and sixty (60) days of the date of the notice.

Should any such Owner fail to timely fulfill this duty and responsibility after such notice, then Developer shall have the right, license and power, but not the obligation, to perform such care and maintenance. The Owner of the Lot shall be liable for the cost of any such work, plus a 10% surcharge for Developer’s over head, and shall, within thirty (30) days of billing, reimburse Developer for all such amounts. Any amount not so paid shall bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum and shall be collectible by all lawful mans.

Any sums not timely paid by the Owner shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum and shall be collectable by all lawful means.

You are advised to inform yourself of these matters by independent investigation.

You should determine whether any solid waste, hazardous substances, pollutants, above or below ground storage tanks, drainage wells, water wells, land fill sites or other environmentally regulated conditions exist on the property. Such conditions are not ordinarily shown in the abstract, but they may result in injunctions, fines, required clean-up, or other remedial action under federal, state, or local laws. These laws may impose liens against the property and personal liability against the owner, even though the owner did nothing to create the condition, and acquired the property without knowing about it.
