Agenda

Old Action Items

  • Revision the Wavier Stuff - Raj Tabled until after lease
  • Schedule Meeting with landlord and talk with landlord - Raj and Jim can now report progress, as follows:
    • Raj and Jim (finally) had a face-to-face meeting with Barrett in his office at The Pointe, on Tuesdy, August 12.
    • The meeting was cordial. Barrett listened to our concerns.
    • Barrett proposed an "escalator clause", emailed to <directors@lvl1.org on August 13,2025> for review, discussion, and concensus approval.
    • The original proposed 5-year lease dated May 14, 2024, with 5-year term starting February 1, 2024 and expiring on January 31, 2029 will be shifted in time and replaced with a new . We are currently following its terms (without signing) and paying its Year 2 rent at $2,200/month through January of 2026.
    • The new proposed 5-year lease dated (mmddyyyy?) will have a similar 5-year term starting (mmddyyyy) and

expiring mmddyyyy. This means LVL1 will continue to pay Year 2 rent at $2,200/month through mmddyyyy. It then extends to year 3 rent, and year 4 and 5 rent is subject to the escalator clause.

    • Raj and Jim believe Barrett has listened and is acting in good faith with a concession to LVL1's advantage by extending the current duration for paying rent at the year 2 rate. Barrett has not pursued the penalty terms for LVL1 not signing the original proposed lease as another sign of his good faith.
    • The escalator clause adds flexiblity to adjust the year 4 and 5 rent rates (+/-) based on circumstances at that future time.
