PARKING LEASE AGREEMENT
FOR PARKING IN THE 821 DAVIS STREET GARAGE BETWEEN
THE CITY OF EVANSTON
AND
TARGET CORPORATION
PARKING LEASE AGREEMENT
1. Date and Parties. This Parking Lease Agreement ("Agreement") is made on
this day of 2017 (the "Effective Date"), by and between the City
of Evanston, an Illinois municipal corporation ("Landlord"), and Target Corporation, a
Minnesota corporation ("Tenant").
2. Tenant's Store. Tenant executed a lease agreement to lease a street level
commercial space at 1616 Sherman Avenue, Evanston, Illinois (the "Store Lease"), and
the Store Lease is conditioned on Tenant obtaining the dedicated parking spaces solely
for its customers as contemplated by this Agreement.
3. Leased Premises. Landlord is the fee owner of the property commonly
known as 821 Davis Street, Evanston, Illinois 60201 ("Property") which is legally
described on Exhibit A attached hereto, which Property is improved with and includes as
part thereof, a parking garage ("Public Garage"). Tenant desires to lease from Landlord,
and Landlord agrees to lease to Tenant, twenty-six (26) covered parking spaces in the
location identified on Exhibit B attached hereto (such number and location of spaces, the
"Leased Premises") subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Tenant must
have exclusive use of the Leased Premises during the Tenant's posted business hours, at
the time of signing the posted business hours will be 7:00 a.m. — 11:00 p.m., as may be
amended by Tenant at any time. The Leased Premises will be marked with one (1) hour
maximum use (the "Parking Limit") signage, paid for and installed by Landlord,
indicating the spaces which are for Tenant's customers during posted hours of business.
Landlord will not manage or enforce the Parking Limit at the outset of this Lease, but if
Tenant makes Landlord aware that the existing parking arrangements are insufficient to
ensure that the Leased Premises are available to Tenant's customers then Landlord will
work with Tenant to implement reasonable measures (e.g. ticketing by parking
enforcement officers or the Police Department) to ensure the Leased Premises are
available for Tenant's customers. The parties agree to work in good faith if an electronic
validation system, compatible with Tenant's systems, is necessary to ensure enforcement
of the Parking Limit. At a later date, if Tenant seeks to pursue a validation system, it
would need to purchase the validator to be installed at their facility and the cost of the
validated tickets will be the responsibility of Tenant.
4. Lease Term. The lease term ("Term") of this Lease shall start on the date of
issuance of the Final Certificate of Occupancy of the Leased Premises
("Commencement Date") and expire fifteen (15) years thereafter ("Lease Term");
provided however, that, if the Store Lease expires or terminates prior to the expiration of
the Lease Term, then this Lease shall automatically terminate simultaneously therewith.
Provided Tenant is not otherwise in default beyond any applicable cure period, Tenant
shall have two (2) options ("Extension Options"), to extend the Lease for a ten (10) year
period each ("Extension Term") upon the same terms, covenants and conditions as
herein provided. Tenant must provide Landlord written notice of its intention to exercise
the Extension Option within 90 days of expiration of the Term or an Extension Term.
2
5. Rent. Since the consideration for this Lease is Tenant's entering into the
Store Lease, Landlord assesses no monetary rent for the dedicated parking spaces
provided to Tenant's customers during the Lease Term.
6. Parking Rates for Tenant's Customers. Tenant's customers must pay the
posted parking rates for the Public Garage during the term that the automobile is parked
in the Public Garage beyond the 1-hour free parking. Landlord will not discount parking.
Landlord may, in its sole discretion, increase the standard parking rate for automobiles at
the Public Garage with no notice needed to Tenant.
7. Books and Records. Landlord or its authorized representatives may conduct
at any time upon reasonable prior notice, an audit or inspection of the usage of the Leased
Premises for the purpose of determining the degree to which Tenant's customers utilize
the Leased Premises. The parties will review and study the usage of spaces every 5
years. If greater than 50% of the spaces are not utilized on a regular basis, the Parties
agree to discuss reduction of the spaces.
8. Compliance with Law. Tenant shall not use the Leased Premises, or
knowingly permit anything to be done in or about the Leased Premises, that will in any
way conflict with any law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule or regulation now in
force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated.
9. Landlord Repair Responsibility. Landlord shall repair and maintain the
Leased Premises, including snow removal, rubbish removal, lighting, paving, repair of
potholes, and curb cuts in a manner consistent with other parking facilities in the City of
Evanston. Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to make such repairs or to perform
any maintenance if need for such repair is due to the neglect on the part of the Tenant.
Tenant shall provide Landlord with notice of any repairs needed and Landlord shall
address said repair(s) within a reasonable time to be agreed between City and Tenant. If
during such repairs, Landlord is unable to make the Leased Premises available for use by
Tenant's guests for a period of ten (10) consecutive days or more, Landlord shall be
required to provide separate dedicated parking during the period of repairs. The
provisions of this Section shall not apply in the case of damage or destruction by fire or
other casualty or a taking under the power of eminent domain which are governed by
Sections 15 and 16, respectively, of this Agreement.
10. Tenant Alterations Prohibited. Tenant shall not, at any time during the
Lease Term, make any alterations, decorations, additions, or improvements to the Leased
Premises, except for signage and branding elements (e.g., paint, graphics, or other
materials reflecting Tenant's corporate designs and branding that are prototypical from
time to time) as well as repair and replacement thereof.
11. Utilities. Landlord shall be responsible. for and pay for all utilities supplied to
the Leased Premises.
12. Insurance to be Maintained by Landlord, Waiver. Throughout the term,
Landlord covenants to maintain insurance with respect to the Public Garage insuring
3
against loss or damage by fire and such other hazards for the full insurable replacement
cost of such improvements, less deductibles; and comprehensive public liability, and
property damage insurance in such limits as deemed appropriate. Landlord and Tenant
hereby release each other from any liability for loss or damage by fire or other casualty
coverable by a standard form of "all risk" insurance policy ("Special Extended
Coverage"), irrespective of (i) any negligence of the other, its agents or employee, or
(ii) the amount of such insurance required or actually carried, including any deductible or
self-insurance reserve
13. Casualty/Restoration. In the event the Public Garage is damaged by fire,
explosion or any other casualty and as a consequence thereof, Landlord is unable to
provide twenty-six (26) parking spaces in another portion of the Parking Garage,
Landlord will use best efforts to provide alternative parking at another City parking
garage. In the event that Landlord elects not to repair or rebuild the Parking Garage, then
this Agreement shall terminate as of the date of the casualty., Tenant shall have no further
obligation under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may elect to
nullify such termination by notice to Tenant delivered within ninety (90) days of the date
of termination. In the event that Landlord timely notifies Tenant of such election,
Landlord and Tenant shall amend this Agreement to reflect the substitute location of the
Leased Premises, number of parking spaces at the substitute location, and such other
modifications to terms and conditions that are warranted on the basis of such substitution
and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. If, following any Landlord
termination of this Lease, Landlord elects to rebuild the Parking Garage (or the portion
thereof affected by the casualty) within three (3) years after the casualty, then Landlord
shall provide notice to Tenant and offer to lease the Leased Premises to Tenant on the
same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease (the "Rebuilding Offer"). In the
event Tenant desires to accept the Rebuilding Offer, Tenant shall make the election by
notice to Landlord within one hundred twenty (120) days after Tenant's receipt of the
Rebuilding Offer.

taken for a public or quasi -public use by the State or federal government, this Agreement

contrary in the Ordinance, Tenant shall have no further obligation to lease parking spaces
from Landlord and the Project shall be deemed conforming as to parking.
(b) Less than 50% Taken: If the taking affects less than 50 percent of the Public
Garage and Landlord continues to provide the required number of parking spaces to
Tenant, then Landlord will, with reasonable diligence, proceed at Landlord's expense to

90 days after the date of the actual physical taking.
