This is a Commission Agreement between a property lessor and Public Properties, LLC (broker) regarding GSA's lease of office space in Nashville, Tennessee under Request for Lease Proposal No. 4TN0371. The agreement establishes the terms under which the broker will represent the United States of America, acting through the General Services Administration, as the tenant seeking to lease office space at the specified property.
The broker will receive a commission equal to four percent (4%) of the aggregate lease value for the initial non-cancelable term of the lease. The commission is earned upon lease execution and is payable without further condition or contingency at lease award. Aggregate Lease Value includes initial full service rental payments (base rent, base operating costs, and base real estate taxes) plus any fixed annual or periodic rental bumps and escalations during the initial firm term. The Aggregate Lease Value excludes rental abatements other than the Commission Credit, annual escalations for operating expenses and real estate taxes, additional amounts paid for services beyond those furnished by the lessor, commissions on option periods or lease terms beyond the firm term, and amortization of tenant improvement allowance and Building Specific Amortized Capital. Both parties represent that no other brokers have been employed and agree to indemnify each other against claims for competing commissions. The agreement requires written modification by both parties and includes provisions limiting liability to direct, reasonably foreseeable damages, with broker liability capped at the amount of commission actually received. The prevailing party in any legal dispute is entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.

The Commission shall be earned upon lease execution and is payable without further condition or contingency at lease award.

b. Any fixed annual or other periodic rental bumps and/or fixed annual or other periodic rent escalations occurring during the initial non-cancelable term of the Lease.

Lessor and Broker shall each indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any claims for brokerage fees or other commissions asserted by any broker, agent or finder employed by Lessor or Broker, respectively, or with whom Lessor or Broker, respectively, has dealt.
Lessor and Broker agree not to disclose confidential financial information on commission and/or credits, or any other information having an adverse effect on the agreement and will refrain from using the information for any other purpose than that for which it was furnished.

This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the payment of a commission by the Lessor to the Broker and supersedes all prior agreements, negotiations and understandings between the Lessor and the Broker with respect to the subject matter hereof. Any representation, inducement or agreement not contained in this Agreement shall be of no force and effect.
This Agreement may not be modified in any manner other than an instrument in writing signed by both parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
