This Management Services Agreement (“Agreement”) dated as of July 31, 2018, by and between Sered North River, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Owner”), and Diverse Development Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Manager”).
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, Owner owns and operates, and has the right to collect rents from and manage, certain properties and desires to engage Manager to manage and operate the same to the extent hereinafter specified.
AGREEMENT:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1.
PROPERTY
This Agreement relates to the property or properties described on Schedule A, attached hereto and incorporated by reference (the “Property”). In absence of an amendment in writing between the parties to this Agreement, no other tract or parcel of real property or the improvements thereon shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 2.
COMMENCEMENT DATE
Manager’s duties and responsibilities under this Agreement shall begin as of August 1, 2018, and shall continue until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the provisions set forth herein.
ARTICLE 3.
MANAGER’S RESPONSIBILITIES
3.1 Management. To the extent herein provided and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, Manager shall manage, operate and maintain the Property in an efficient and satisfactory manner. Manager shall act in a fiduciary capacity with respect to the matters subject to Manager’s control and management under this Agreement. In this capacity, Manager shall deal at arm’s length with all third parties.
3.2 Employees; Independent Contractor. Manager shall have in its employ at all times a sufficient number of capable employees, as employees of Manager and not of Owner, to enable it to properly and adequately manage, operate and maintain the Property or Manager shall engage such independent contractors as Manager deems necessary to supplement and complement Manager’s employees and properly and adequately manage, operate and maintain the Property. Manager shall be responsible to Owner for all such employees and/or independent contractors. All matters pertaining to the employment, supervision, compensation, promotion and discharge of Manager’s employees and others engaged by Manager for the operation and maintenance of the Property are the responsibility of Manager. Manager shall fully comply with all applicable laws and regulations having to do with workers’ compensation, social security, unemployment insurance, hours of labor, wages, working conditions, and other employer-employee related subjects in connection with the Property. Manager represents that it is and will continue to be an equal opportunity employer and will advertise (to the extent Manager elects to advertise) as such. This Agreement is not one of agency by Manager for Owner but one with Manager engaged with respect to the functions undertaken by or assigned to Manager under this Agreement independently in the business of managing properties on its own behalf, as an independent contractor.
1 |
3.3 Schedule of Employees. Manager shall provide a schedule of employees with respect to all employees to be employed “on-site” in the direct management of the Property. This schedule shall include the number of employees and their title and salary range and shall also indicate which employees, if any, are bonded or are covered under Manager’s comprehensive crime insurance policy. Manager shall identify in the same manner those additional employees whose salaries may from time to time be charged pro rata to the Property for direct services rendered to such Property. Employees whose salaries are eligible to be charged pro rata include, but are not limited to, engineers or others to be mutually agreed upon by Owner and Manager from time to time.
3.4 Compliance with Laws, Mortgages, etc. Manager shall be responsible for management, operation and maintenance of the Property in compliance with federal, state and municipal laws, ordinances, regulations and orders relative to the leasing, management, operation, repair and maintenance of the Property, and with the rules, regulations or orders of the local fire inspection department, the agency or board (state or local) of casualty insurance underwriters or other similar body. Manager shall promptly remedy any violation of any such law, ordinance, rule, regulation or order which comes to its attention to the extent such remedy is within the control of Manager; provided, however, that Manager’s responsibilities shall be limited to funds made available by Owner to cause such compliance. Manager shall not knowingly commit any act of default under the terms and conditions contained in any ground lease, space lease, mortgage, deed of trust or other security instruments affecting the Property, and shall promptly notify Owner of any such default which comes to the attention and knowledge of Manager, but Manager shall not be required to incur any liability on account thereof.
3.5 Approved Budgets. Manager shall prepare and submit to Owner a proposed operating budget and a proposed capital budget for the promotion, operation, repair and maintenance of the Property for the forthcoming calendar year. The proposed budgets shall be delivered to Owner no later than December l of the calendar year preceding the year involved. Owner will consider the proposed budgets and then will consult with Manager in the ensuing period prior to the commencement of the forthcoming calendar year in order to mutually agree on an operating budget (the “Approved Operating Budget”) and on a capital budget (the “Approved Capital Budget”). Manager agrees to use diligence and to employ all reasonable efforts to ensure that the actual costs of maintaining and operating the Property shall not exceed the Approved Budget (Operating or Capital, as the case may be) pertaining thereto either in total or in any one accounting category. All expenses shall be charged to the proper account as specified in the relevant Approved Budget and no expense may be classified or reclassified for the purpose of avoiding an excess in the annual budgeted amount of an accounting category. Manager shall secure Owner’s prior approval for any expenditure except for utilities charges that will result in an excess of 5% or more in any one accounting category of the Approved Operating Budget, however, if said expenditure is less than Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) no approval is necessary. During each calendar year, Manager agrees to inform Owner of any major increases in costs and expenses that were not foreseen during the budget preparation period and thus were not reflected in either Approved Budget (Operating or Capital, as the case may be), and shall submit to Owner for approval a revised budget based upon said unforeseen costs and expenses.

3.6 Collection of Rents and Other Income. Manager will endeavor to collect all rents including escalation billings, as approved by Owner, for tenant participation in increases in operating and fixed expenses and other charges which may become due Owner at any time from any tenant, or from others, for services provided in connection with, or for the use of, the Property or any portion thereof. In addition, Manager will undertake to collect and identify any income due Owner from miscellaneous services provided to tenants or the public including, but not limited to, parking income, tenant storage, and coin operated machines of all types (e.g., vending machines and pay telephones). All monies so collected shall be deposited in the Operating Account and on or about the 6th day of each month the Manager shall remit to Owner’s designated account, all sums in the Operating Account in excess of those required to operate the Property for the balance of such month. A similar transfer of funds shall be made on or about the 20th of each month. Manager cannot and may not terminate any lease, lock out a tenant, institute suit for rent or for use and occupancy, or proceedings for recovery of possession, without the prior written approval of Owner. In connection with such suits or proceedings only legal counsel designated by Owner shall be retained, and all such suits or proceedings shall be brought in the name of Owner and shall be handled in such manner as Owner directs. All legal expenses incurred in bringing such suits or proceedings shall be operating expenses.
3.7 Repairs. Manager shall attend to the making and supervision of all ordinary and extraordinary repairs, decorations and alterations to the Property; however, no single expenditure which is not included in the Approved Operating Budget or the Approved Capital Budget made for such purposes shall exceed Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) without prior approval of the Owner. Disbursements for actual and reasonable expenses for materials and labor for such purposes will be made from the Operating Account. Excluded from this provision are expenditures to refurbish, rehabilitate, remodel, or otherwise prepare areas covered by new leases; such expenditures are to be handled in accordance with Section 3.8. In case of emergency Manager may make expenditures for repairs which exceed the aforementioned amount without prior written approval if Manager deems such expenditure to be necessary to prevent damage or injury. Manager will inform Owner of any such emergency expenditures before the end of the next business day.
3.8 Capital Expenditures. The Approved Capital Budget shall, except as limited by this Section 3.8, constitute an authorization for Manager to expend funds in accordance with such budget only for amounts equal to, or less than, Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000). Any capital expenditure must be specifically authorized in writing by Owner if for: (i) items not included in the Approved Capital Budget, (ii) items limited by this Section 3.8, or (iii) for amounts of more than Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000). With respect to the purchase and installation of major items of new or replacement equipment (including, without limitation, elevators, heating or air-conditioning equipment, furniture and furnishings, carpets or other floor coverings), Manager shall recommend that Owner purchase these items when Manager believes such purchase to be necessary or desirable. Owner may arrange to purchase and install the same itself or may authorize Manager to do so subject to such supervision and specification requirements and conditions as Owner may prescribe in any such approval.

3.9 Service Contracts. Manager shall not enter into any contract for cleaning, maintaining, repairing or servicing the Property or any of the constituent parts of the Property without the prior consent of Owner unless provided for in the Operating Budget. As a condition to obtaining such consent, Manager shall supply Owner with a copy of the proposed contract and shall state to Owner the relationship, if any, between Manager (or the person or persons in control of Manager) and the party proposed to supply such goods or services, or both. Each such service contract shall: (a) be in the name of Manager, (b) identify the Property and be assignable, at Owner’s option to Owner or Owner’s nominee, (c) include a provision for cancellation thereof by Owner or Manager effective upon 30 days’ written notice and (d) shall require that all contractors provide evidence of sufficient insurance. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any provision of Article l4, Manager shall, at Owner’s option, assign to Owner or Owner’s nominee all service agreements pertaining to the Property and Owners or Owner’s nominee shall assume all Manager’s obligations thereunder.
3.10 Taxes, Mortgages.

Manager shall make payments on account of any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument, if any, affecting the Property to the extent Owner directs that Manager make such payments (either in the Approved Budgets or otherwise).
3.11 Leasing. The Manager shall make every reasonable effort to obtain and keep desirable tenants for the Property; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall restrict the right of Manager, its officers, directors and shareholders, to own, operate and/or manage other properties that compete with or might be competitive with the Property. Manager shall, so far as possible, procure references from prospective tenants, investigate such references, and use its best judgment in the selection of prospective tenants. As soon as possible following any vacancy, Manager will prepare adequate rental listings and promptly distribute them to one or more reputable and active real estate brokers. All terms and conditions of each listing agreement shall be subject to Owner’s review and written approval prior to such distribution. After a vacancy is so listed, Manager will cooperate with any of such brokers in any manner likely to aid in successfully filling the vacancy. The Manager agrees to perform whatever service may be required in connection with the negotiation of leases or renewals, extensions, modifications, or cancellations thereof. Leasing commissions will be paid from the Operating Account.
3.12 Execution of Leases. All leases are to be prepared by Manager in accordance with the leasing guidelines established by Owner with respect to the Property. Except as otherwise mutually agreed by Owner and Manager in a particular case, all leases shall be prepared by Manager and submitted to Owner for execution by Owner in Owner’s name.
3.13 Advertising. The Manager shall prepare advertising plans and promotional material to be used to further rentals. Such plans or material shall only be used if approved in advance by Owner, and in conformance with such approval.

INSURANCE

Manager will be covered as an additional insured in all liability insurance maintained with respect to the Property.
