• Statement of Actual Direct Expenses and Payment by Tenant Landlord shall give to Tenant within five (5) months following the end of each Expense Year, a statement (the “Statement”) which shall state the Direct Expenses incurred or accrued for such preceding Expense Year, and which shall indicate the amount of Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses. Upon receipt of the Statement for each Expense Year commencing or ending during the Lease Term, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due that is at least thirty (30) days thereafter, the full amount of Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses for such Expense Year, less the amounts, if any, paid during such Expense Year as “Estimated Direct Expenses,” as that term is defined in Section 4.4.2, below, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Direct Expenses than the actual Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses, Tenant shall receive a credit in the amount of Tenant’s overpayment against Rent next due under this Lease. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Statement for any Expense Year shall not prejudice Landlord or Tenant from enforcing its rights under this Article 4. Even though the Lease Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses for the Expense Year in which this Lease terminates, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord such amount, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Direct Expenses than the actual Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses, Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days, deliver a check payable to Tenant in the amount of the overpayment. The provisions of this Section 4.4.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.

• Allocation of Direct Expenses The parties acknowledge that the Building is a part of a multi-building project and that the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Project (i.e., the Direct Expenses) should be shared between the Building and the other buildings in the Project. Accordingly, as set forth in Section 4.2 above, Direct Expenses (which consist of Operating Expenses and Tax Expenses) are determined annually for the Project as a whole, and a portion of the Direct Expenses, which portion shall be determined by Landlord on an equitable basis, shall be allocated to the Building (as opposed to other buildings in the Project). Such portion of Direct Expenses allocated to the Building shall include all Direct Expenses attributable solely to the Building and a pro rata portion of the Direct Expenses attributable to the Project as a whole, and shall not include Direct Expenses attributable solely to other buildings in the Project.

• Payment and Year-End Adjustment Amounts accrued pursuant to this Agreement shall be payable to the Adviser as of the last day of each month. If necessary, on or before the last day of the first month of each fiscal year, an adjustment payment shall be made by the appropriate party in order that the actual Fund Operating Expenses of a Fund for the prior fiscal year (including any reimbursement payments hereunder with respect to such fiscal year) do not exceed the Maximum Annual Operating Expense Limit.

• Base Rent Adjustments Base Rent shall be increased on each annual anniversary of the first day of the first full month during the Term of this Lease (each an “Adjustment Date”) by multiplying the Base Rent payable immediately before such Adjustment Date by the Rent Adjustment Percentage and adding the resulting amount to the Base Rent payable immediately before such Adjustment Date. Base Rent, as so adjusted, shall thereafter be due as provided herein. Base Rent adjustments for any fractional calendar month shall be prorated.

• RENTAL ADJUSTMENT The lesser of (i) 2%, or (ii) 1.25 times the change in the Price Index, as described in Section 4.02.

• Annual Adjustments Base Rent shall be increased on each annual anniversary of the first day of the first full month during the Term of this Lease (each an “Adjustment Date”) by multiplying the Base Rent payable immediately before such Adjustment Date by the Rent Adjustment Percentage and adding the resulting amount to the Base Rent payable immediately before such Adjustment Date. Base Rent, as so adjusted, shall thereafter be due as provided herein. Base Rent adjustments for any fractional calendar month shall be prorated.

• Base Rent Adjustment The Base Rent payable hereunder shall be adjusted upward from time to time in accordance with the following provisions: (a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord as an adjustment to Rent, an amount equal to the excess (the “Excess”) from time to time of total annual Operating Expenses per square foot of Rentable Area of the Premises, as Grossed-Up, over and above the Expense Stop. The Excess shall be obtained by multiplying (i) the difference between the annual Operating Expense per square foot of Rentable Area in the Premises and the Expense Stop, by (ii) the total Rentable Area of the Premises as set forth in Section 1.15. Such amount shall be paid in advance in monthly installments on the same dates as Base Rent is due and payable hereunder based on Landlord’s notice delivered to Tenant from time to time setting forth Landlord’s good faith estimate of the Operating Expenses for the current calendar year. Landlord shall have the right to adjust such amount no more than once a year to reflect any changes in Landlord’s estimate of Operating Expenses. (b) By April 1 of each calendar year during the Lease Term, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement (“Actual Statement”) of Landlord’s annual Operating Expenses, as Grossed-Up, for the previous calendar year. If for any calendar year the amounts collected from Tenant for the prior year, as a result of Landlord’s estimate of Operating Expenses, exceeds the amount of the Excess actually due during such prior year, then Landlord shall refund to Tenant any overpayment (or at Landlord’s option, apply such amount against Rent due or to become due hereunder). Likewise, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, any underpayment with respect to the prior year. (c) In the event of any good faith dispute as to the amount of the Excess as set forth in the statement of actual Operating Expenses, Tenant shall have the right, no more frequently than once per calendar year, after reasonable notice to Landlord and at reasonable times, to inspect and photocopy Landlord’s Operating Expenses records at Landlord’s offices. If, after such inspection and photocopy, Tenant continues, in good faith, to dispute the amount of the Excess as set forth in said statement, Tenant shall be entitled not later than one (1) year following Tenant’s receipt of an Actual Statement to retain a national, independent, certified public accountant who is not contracted on a contingency fee basis and is mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant to audit Landlord’s Operating Expenses records with respect to the calendar year covered by Actual Statement to determine the proper amount of the Excess. Landlord shall be entitled to review the results of such audit promptly after completion of same. If such audit proves that Landlord has overcharged Tenant, then within fifteen (15) days after the results of the audit are made available to Landlord, Landlord shall credit Tenant the amount of such overcharge toward the payments of Base Rent and Additional Rent next coming due under this Lease. If the results of such audit prove that Landlord has undercharged Tenant, then within fifteen (15) days after the results of the audit are made available to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any such undercharge. Tenant agrees to pay the cost of such audit, provided that Landlord shall reimburse Tenant the amount of such cost if the results of such audit prove that Landlord’s determination of the Excess (as set forth in the Actual Statement) was in error by more than six percent (6%). If Tenant does not request an audit in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c) within one (1) year after Tenant’s receipt of an Actual Statement, such Actual Statement shall be conclusively binding upon Tenant. Landlord shall be required to maintain records of all Operating Expenses for three (3) years following the issuance of the Operating Expense statement for such Operating Expenses. The payment by Tenant of any amounts pursuant to this Article shall not preclude Tenant from questioning the correctness of any such statement.

• Operating Expense Payments Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written estimate of Operating Expenses for each calendar year during the Term (the “Annual Estimate”), which may be revised by Landlord from time to time during such calendar year. During each month of the Term, on the same date that Base Rent is due, Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount equal to 1/12th of Tenant’s Share of the Annual Estimate. Payments for any fractional calendar month shall be prorated.

• Limit on Operating Expenses The Advisor hereby agrees to limit the Fund’s current Operating Expenses to an annual rate, expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the month, to the amounts listed in Appendix A (the “Annual Limit”). In the event that the current Operating Expenses of the Fund, as accrued each month, exceed its Annual Limit, the Advisor will pay to the Fund, on a monthly basis, the excess expense within the first ten days of the month following the month in which such Operating Expenses were incurred (each payment, a “Fund Reimbursement Payment”).

• Operating Expenses Unless modified in accordance with Exhibit D, Landlord maintenance addendum, attached hereto, it is the intention of the parties and they hereby agree that this shall be a triple net Lease, and the Landlord shall have no obligation to provide any services, perform any acts or pay any expenses, charges, obligations or costs of any kind whatsoever with respect to the Premises, and Tenant hereby agrees to pay one hundred percent (100%) of any and all Operating Expenses as hereafter defined for the entire term of the Lease and any extensions thereof in accordance with specific provisions hereinafter set forth. The term Operating expenses shall include all costs to Landlord of operating and maintaining the Building and related parking areas, and shall include, without limitation, real estate and personal property taxes and assessments, management fee, heating, electricity, water, waste disposal, sewage, operating materials and supplies, service agreements and charges, lawn care, snow removal, restriping, repairs, repaving, cleaning and custodial, security, insurance, the cost of contesting the validity or applicability of any governmental acts which may affect operating expenses, and all other direct operating costs of operating and maintaining the Building and related parking areas, unless expressly excluded from operating expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, operating costs (and Tenant's obligations in relation thereto) shall not include (i) any expense chargeable to a capital account or capital improvement, ground leases; principal or interest payments on any mortgage or deed of trust on the premises; (ii) any amount for which Landlord is reimbursed through insurance, by third persons, or directly by other tenants of the premises, (iii) repair costs occasioned by fire, windstorm or other casualty, (iv) any construction, repair or maintenance expenses or obligations that are the sole responsibility of Landlord (not to be reimbursed by Tenant), (v) leasing commissions and other expenses incurred in connection with leasing any other area located on the premises to any other party, (vi) any expense representing an amount paid to an affiliate or subsidiary of Landlord which is in excess of the amount which would be paid in the absence of such relationship, and (vii) costs of items and services for which Tenant reimburses Landlord or pays third persons directly.
