Introduction
On or about December 12, 1993, Lessor and William F. Power and Marlene Power, husband and
wife, as community property, hereinafter referred to as "Tenant", without regard to number and.
gender, entered into a lease whereby Lesser leased to Tenant that certain property hereinafter
referred to as the "Premises" shown on Exhibit "A" attached hereto and by reference made a part
hereof and described as those filled tidelands lying between the extension of the sidelines of Lot
16 (erroneously referred to in the Lease as Lot 15) of Tract 802, from the adjudicated mean high
tide line to the United States bulkhead line, excepting therefrom those lands lying below the
existing mean high tide line, together with all the improvements presently on said Premises.
On or about May 15, 1998, Tenant conveyed, transferred and sold all of their right, title and
interest in Lots 15 and 16 to Assignee and purported to assign their interest in the lease to
Assignee. Section 14 of the Lease provides that Tenant shall not transfer their interest in the
Lease without the prior written approval of the City Manager of Lessor. Although Lessor was
notified of the transfer and assignment of the Lease, no formal Assignment was ever executed
between Tenant and Assignee and no written consent was ever granted by Lessor.
Assignee has occupied the Premises and has paid rent to Lessor for the Premises since their
occupancy thereof from May 15, 1998. However, under the provisions of Section 8 of the Lease,
the rent thereunder is subject to periodic adjustment by reappraisal in five (5) years and every ten
(10) yeas thereafter commencing on March 22, 1998. Lessor has not performed the March 22,
1998 appraisal.
Section 4 of the Lease provides that the Tenant thereunder shall have the exclusive private
enjoyment of the Premises for residential yard, landscaping and non permanent recreational
purposes as an adjunct to the single family residence that adjoins the Premises including certain
specified uses delineated in Section 4. In this regard, Tenant utilized the Premises for driveway
access and parking which is a usage not specifically delineated in Section 4, and Assignee has
continued such usage.
Tenant and Assignee are concurrently herewith executing a formal written Assignment of Lease
in order to memorialize in writing the de facto assignment that took place on May 15, 1998
between Tenant and Assignee. Assignee and Landlord desire to have Landlord's consent to such
Assignment formalized by means of this Agreement and to address the issue of the rental
adjustment and appraisal which was not performed on March 22, 1998 and the driveway access
and parking usage of the Premises currently utilized by Assignee.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual promises and
conditions contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Lessor does hereby consent to the Assignment of Lease by Tenant to Assignee.
—However—nothing--herei-n-shall-be-construed-to--be a-wai-vor--of-or--in-an-y-way-invalidate
any of the provisions of Section 14 of the Lease dealing with assigning, subletting and
encumbering the Premises which will continue to be strictly enforced by Lessor.
2. Assignee agrees that pursuant to Section 8 of the Lease, the rent thereunder was subject
to readjustment by reappraisal on March 22, 1998, but that such reappraisal has not
occurred. Assignee agrees that Lessor shall have the right to conduct an appraisal of the
current value of the Lease, and that any rent increase resulting from such appraisal will be
paid by Assignee retroactive to date of this Agreement. Assignee reserves the right to
participate in the appraisal process as set forth in Section 8 of the Lease.
3. Lessor and Assignee agree that Section 4 of the Lease is hereby amended to provide that
driveway access and parking shall be a permitted use of the Premises under the terms of
the Lease.
4. Lessor and Assignee agree that Section 16 of the Lease is amended to provide that the
address for Notice to Tenant (Assignee) shall be as follows:
