• Heating and Air Conditioning Tenant shall not use any method of heating or air-conditioning, other than that supplied by Landlord, without Landlord’s prior written consent.

• HEATING, VENTILATING AND AIR CONDITIONING The Tenant will operate and regulate those portions of the heating, ventilating, and air conditioning equipment within and serving the Leased Premises so as to maintain such reasonable conditions of temperature and humidity within the Leased Premises as are determined by the Landlord and its Architect and engineers so that no direct or indirect appropriation of the heating, ventilating and air conditioning from the other portions of the Building occurs. The Tenant shall comply with such stipulations and with all Rules and Regulations of the Landlord pertaining to the operation and regulation of such equipment. The Tenant shall immediately notify the Landlord in the event that any repairs are required to the heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment serving the Leased Premises and shall reimburse the Landlord as part of its Proportionate Share of Operating Costs for the cost of any maintenance, repairs or replacements made by the Landlord in respect of the heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment serving the Leased Premises. The Landlord acknowledges that the Tenant shall not be responsible for the cost of capital repairs and capital replacements in respect of the heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment serving the Leased Premises provided that such capital repairs and capital replacements are not necessitated by the Tenant's incorrect or negligent use of equipment. The Tenant shall not under any circumstances go onto the roof of the Building or make any maintenance repairs or replacements to the heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems in the Building without the prior written consent of the Landlord. If the Tenant fails to comply with such stipulations and Rules and Regulations, the Landlord shall be entitled to take such steps as it deems advisable to correct such defaults (including, without limitation, entering upon the Leased Premises and assuming control of such equipment) without liability to the Tenant, and the Tenant will pay to the Landlord forthwith upon demand as Additional Rent all costs and expenses incurred by the Landlord in so doing. The Landlord represents and warrants to the Tenant that the heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment serving the Leased Premises and required to be installed by the Landlord pursuant to Schedule "C" is and will be at the Commencement Date in good working order and condition.

• Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Landlord shall furnish to the Premises heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (“HVAC”) in accordance with the Design Standards set forth in Exhibit D during Ordinary Business Hours. Landlord shall have access to all air-cooling, fan, ventilating and machine rooms and electrical closets and all other mechanical installations of Landlord (collectively, “Mechanical Installations”), and Tenant shall not construct partitions or other obstructions which may interfere with Landlord’s access thereto or the moving of Landlord’s equipment to and from the Mechanical Installations. No Tenant Party shall at any time enter the Mechanical Installations or tamper with, adjust, or otherwise affect such Mechanical Installations. Landlord shall not be responsible if the HVAC System fails to provide cooled or heated air, as the case may be, to the Premises in accordance with the Design Standards by reason of (i) any equipment installed by, for or on behalf of Tenant, which has an electrical load in excess of the average electrical load and human occupancy factors for the HVAC System as designed, or (ii) any rearrangement of partitioning or other Alterations made or performed by, for or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant shall install, if missing, blinds or shades on all windows, which blinds and shades shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, and shall keep operable windows in the Premises closed, and lower the blinds when necessary because of the sun’s position, whenever the HVAC System is in operation or as and when required by any Requirement. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and shall abide by the rules and regulations which Landlord may reasonably prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the HVAC System. Tenant acknowledges that the server room in the Premises currently has three heat pumps installed, being two 4-ton units, and one 2.5-ton unit (the “Existing Heat Pumps”). The 2.5-ton unit is currently connected and operational. Tenant shall determine whether it is satisfied with the condition of the Existing Heat Pumps and Landlord shall not have any responsibility or liability for the condition, operation, maintenance, repair or replacement of the Existing Heat Pumps. Tenant may operate the Existing Heat Pumps. Tenant shall be responsible for, and pay directly for, all necessary maintenance and repairs to the Existing Heat Pumps. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord monthly for the cost of all utility services used to operate the Existing Heat Pumps within 10 Business Days after receipt of Landlord’s invoice for such amount. Landlord may measure Tenant’s usage of such utility services by either a sub-meter or by other reasonable methods such as by temporary check meters or by survey. Tenant, at its cost, may replace the Existing Heat Pumps with one or more new heat pumps, provided, however, that the capacity of such replacement heat pump(s) shall not exceed the 10.5-ton capacity cooling capacity of the Existing Heat Pumps.

• Air Conditioning 35.01 Landlord shall make available to Tenant, and Tenant shall be permitted to use, the base Building equipment presently supplying air-conditioning service to the Premises and any replacements thereof (the “Existing HVAC Equipment”) Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (i) during the Building’s “Cooling Season” (which is currently May 15 through October 15) for those portions of the Existing HVAC Equipment serving the perimeter portions of the Premises, and (ii) three hundred sixty-five (365) days a year for those portions of the Existing HVAC System serving the interior portions of the Premises, in each instance subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Article. Landlord represents that as of the date hereof the Existing HVAC Equipment is in working order and has a cooling capacity which is appropriate for normal office use and normal occupancy density, to wit: the Existing HVAC Equipment is designed to make available a capacity of one (1) ton of HVAC per 300 usable square feet, and is designed to deliver a summer-winter temperature of between 72 and 78 degrees Fahrenheit. Landlord shall repair and maintain the Existing HVAC Equipment in good working order and condition, at Landlord’s cost and expense; provided, however, that all other air conditioning systems, equipment and facilities hereafter located in or servicing the Premises (the “Supplemental Systems”) including, without limitation, the ducts, dampers, registers, grilles and appurtenances utilized to distribute conditioned air within the Premises in connection with both the Existing HVAC Equipment and/or the Supplemental Systems (collectively hereinafter referred to as the “HVAC System”), shall be maintained, repaired and operated by Tenant in compliance with all present and future laws and regulations relating thereto at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. The parties acknowledge that as of the date hereof there is a two (2) ton water cooled supplemental air conditioning unit installed at the Premises (the “Existing Supplemental System”). Landlord hereby approves, in concept only, subject to Tenant’s compliance with the applicable provisions of this Lease including, without limitation, the provisions of this Article and of Article 8, above, Tenant’s installation, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, of an additional three (3) ton supplemental air conditioning unit (or, should Tenant elect to remove the Existing Supplemental System, then Tenant’s installation of a five (5) ton supplemental air conditioning unit) to service the Premises (the “Additional Supplemental System”). Tenant shall pay for all electricity consumed in the operation of the HVAC System (and/or water, gas and steam) for the production of chilled and/or condenser water and its supply to the Premises, if applicable, which shall become the obligation of Tenant subject to the terms of Article 41 of this Lease. Tenant shall pay for all parts and supplies necessary for the proper operation of the HVAC System (other than the Existing HVAC Equipment) (and any restoration or replacement by Tenant of all or any part thereof shall be in quality and class at least equal to the original work or installations); provided, however, that Tenant shall not alter, modify, remove or replace the HVAC System, or any part thereof, without Landlord’s prior written consent, except that Tenant may remove the Existing Supplemental System in conjunction with Tenant’s installation of a five (5) ton replacement unit as contemplated hereinabove.

• Heat and Air-Conditioning Landlord shall provide and maintain heat, ventilation and air-conditioning (“HVAC”) equipment sufficient to maintain the Premises at comfortable temperatures for general office use, subject to all federal, state and municipal regulations, during Normal Building Operating Hours (as defined in the Rules and Regulations) and subject to compliance by Tenant with the following and the provisions of Section 6.2.4. If Tenant shall require HVAC at times other than Normal Building Operating Hours, Landlord may furnish such service and Tenant shall pay therefor such charges as may from time to time be in effect. If the temperature otherwise maintained in any portion of the Premises by the HVAC system is affected as a result of (i) the type or quantity of any lights, machines or equipment used by Tenant in the Premises, (ii) the occupancy of any portion of the Premises by more than one person per two hundred (200) square feet of rentable area, (iii) an electrical load for lighting or power in excess of the limits specified in Section 6.2.4, or (iv) any partitioning or other improvements installed by Tenant, then at Tenant’s sole cost, Landlord may install any equipment, or modify any existing equipment Landlord deems necessary to restore the temperature balance. Tenant agrees to keep closed, when necessary, blinds or other window treatments which, because of the sun’s position, must be closed to provide for the efficient operation of the air conditioning system, and Tenant agrees to cooperate with Landlord and to abide by the reasonable regulations and requirements which Landlord may prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the HVAC system. Landlord shall have no responsibility for providing any service from Separate HVAC Equipment, as defined in Section 6.1.3.

• ELECTRICAL SERVICES A. Landlord shall provide electric power for a combined load of 3.0 xxxxx per square foot of useable area for lighting and for office machines through standard receptacles for the typical office space.

• Generator Subject to the provisions of this Section 29.36, Tenant shall be entitled to install, operate and maintain a generator and any other equipment related thereto, including, without limitation, a fuel system, wiring and shaft space (“Generator”) next to the Building at Tenant’s sole cost and expense (without paying any additional fee or rental to Landlord for the use thereof). Prior to the installation of the Generator, Tenant shall inspect the proposed location to determine a suitable location for the Generator, and Tenant shall submit written plans and specifications relative to the type, size and proposed location (including any proposed screening) of the Generator to Landlord for its review and written approval. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the cost of acquisition, installation, operation, and maintenance of the Generator; and Tenant shall install, maintain and operate the Generator in accordance with all federal, state, and local laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations, including without limitation, obtaining and maintaining any and all permits, approvals and licenses required to install and operate the Generator by any governmental authority having jurisdiction. Landlord and Tenant agree that, upon the expiration of earlier termination of the Lease Term, Tenant shall not be required to remove the Generator, any associated cabling, wiring and screening or other improvements. Tenant shall not be entitled to grant or assign to any third party (other than a permitted assignee of Tenant’s rights under the Lease or a permitted subtenant relative to the Premises (or a portion thereof)) the right to use the Generator without Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s discretion). Upon reasonable advance notice to Tenant (and provided Landlord reasonably coordinates with Tenant and provides an alternate source of backup generator capacity during said transition), Landlord shall be entitled to cause the Generator to be moved to another location near the Building, at Landlord’s cost and expense. Tenant shall pay all personal property taxes on the Generator. Tenant shall also pay any increases in the real property taxes of the Building due to the installation of the Generator within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice from Landlord which includes proof of such increase in taxes. Tenant’s indemnity obligations under Section 5.4.1.5 of the Lease, relating to the use of Hazardous Materials, shall apply to the use and operation of the Generator. Finally, Tenant’s insurance obligations under Section 10.3 of the Lease shall apply to the Generator.

• Parking Areas Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord will not be responsible for any loss, theft or damage to vehicles, or the contents thereof, parked or left in the parking areas of the Premises and Tenant shall install at least one sign in the parking areas so advising its employees, visitors or invitees who may use such parking areas. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.5, parking areas shall be used for parking by vehicles no larger than full-size passenger automobiles or pick-up trucks, herein called "Permitted Size Vehicles." Vehicles other than Permitted Size Vehicles shall be parked and loaded or unloaded as directed by Landlord in the Rules and Regulations. Tenant shall not permit or allow any vehicles that belong to or are controlled by Tenant or Tenant's employees, suppliers, shippers, customers, contractors or invitees to be loaded, unloaded or parked in areas other than those designated by Landlord for such activities. Tenant agrees not to use or permit its employees, visitors or invitees to use the parking areas for overnight storage of vehicles, except for trucks on the Premises in the process of loading or unloading, and except for semi-tractors and trailers parked in the areas shown on the Site Plan as "Tenant's Designated Truck Parking". Tenant covenants and agrees that it shall not permit any of its employees, agents, contractors, vendors or shippers to park trucks, automobiles, trailers or other vehicles on any of the public streets in the general vicinity of the Premises or the industrial or business park in which the Premises are located. If Tenant permits or allows any of the prohibited activities described above for a period of five (5) business days after written notice from Landlord, then Landlord shall have the right, without further notice, in addition to such other rights and remedies that it may have, to remove or tow away the vehicle involved at Landlord's risk and expense. All responsibility for damage and theft to vehicles and their contents is assumed by the parties owning the same, including, respectively, Tenant or Tenant's partners, trustees, officers, directors, shareholders, members, invitees, or any of Tenant's assignees, subtenants or assignees' or subtenants' agents, employees, contractors, customers, suppliers, servants, guests, or independent contractors (collectively, "Tenant Parties"). Tenant shall repair or cause to be repaired, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, any and all damage, ordinary wear and tear excepted, to any portion of the Property caused by the use by Tenant Parties of the driveway or parking areas within the Property. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant by reason of any moratorium, initiative, referendum, statute, regulation or other governmental action which could in any manner prevent or limit the parking rights of Tenant hereunder. Any governmental charges or surcharges or other monetary obligations imposed relative to Parking rights with respect to the Building shall be considered assessments and shall be Payable by Tenant as set forth in Paragraph 4.1; as of the Commencement Date, Landlord represents there are no such charges or surcharges imposed on the Premises.

• Lighting Landlord will furnish both Building Standard and non-Building Standard lamps, bulbs, ballasts and starters that are part of the Leasehold Improvements for purchase by Tenant at Landlord's cost, plus Landlord's standard administration fee. Landlord will install non-Building Standard items at Landlord's scheduled rate for this service.

• Parking Throughout the Lease Term, Tenant shall have the exclusive right to use, free of charges, the number of parking spaces set forth in Section 12 of the Summary, which parking spaces constitute the entirety of the parking under the Building and the adjacent surface parking, being all of the parking in the Project. Tenant shall comply with the Parking Rules and Regulations which are in effect on the date hereof, as set forth in the attached Exhibit D and all reasonable modifications and additions thereto which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the Parking Areas by Landlord, and/or Landlord’s Parking Operator (as defined below); provided that such modifications or alterations do not effect Tenant’s use of or access to the Parking Areas.

Landlord may delegate its responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator (the “Parking Operator”) in which case the Parking Operator shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to Landlord. Any parking tax or other charges imposed by governmental authorities in connection with the use of such parking shall be paid directly by Tenant or the parking users, or, if directly imposed against Landlord, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all such taxes and/or charges within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s demand therefor. The parking rights provided to Tenant pursuant to this Article 23 are provided solely for use by Tenant’s own personnel visitors and invitees and such rights may not be transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant without Landlord’s prior approval, except in connection with an assignment of this Lease or sublease of the Premises made in accordance with Article 14 above.
