Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Tenant is granted the right to purchase electricity from a provider other than the company or companies used by LandlordTenant's hours of operation exceed four thousand one hundred sixty (4,160) hours in any Lease Year, Tenant shall indemnifypay to Landlord, defendas additional rent hereunder, an amount that would compensate Landlord for the excess wear on those building systems, the useful lives of which are shortened by such excess hours of operation (collectively, the "BUILDING SYSTEMS"), as follows. First, the hourly cost of the Building Systems (the "HOURLY BUILDING SYSTEMS COST") shall be determined by taking the total original cost of the Building Systems and dividing that figure by the product of (i) 4,160, multiplied by (ii) the weighted average of the number of years of useful life of the Building Systems, based upon the expected useful life thereof as stated by the manufacturers thereof or, in the absence of such a determination, based on the expected useful life publicized in the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Handbook - HVAC Applications, or similar industry guidelines. The Hourly Building Systems Cost shall be subject to adjustment on the first day of the second Lease Year and annually thereafter based on annual increases in the Consumer Price Index (as defined in the Phased Development Agreement), as follows. Such adjustment shall be made by subtracting the Consumer Price Index for the month in which the Lease Commencement Date falls (the "BEGINNING INDEX") from the Consumer Price Index for the first month of the Lease Year for which the adjustment is being made (the "ADJUSTMENT INDEX") and dividing that figure by the Beginning Index. The amount so determined shall be multiplied by the initial unescalated Hourly Building Systems Cost to arrive at the adjusted Hourly Building Systems Cost for the Lease Year for which the adjustment is being made. The additional rent payable on account of excess wear on the Building Systems for any Lease Year (the "EXCESS OPERATING HOURS RENT") shall be equal to the product of (x) the Hourly Building Systems Cost (as escalated), multiplied by (y) the number of Tenant's hours of operation in that Lease Year in excess of 4,160. For example, if the original cost of the Building Systems were $2,000,000 and the average useful life thereof were ten (10) years, then the Hourly Building Systems Cost would be $48.07 ($2,000,000 / 41,600). If Tenant's hours of operation in the first Lease Year were 4,420, then the excess hours over 4,160 would be 260 hours. Multiplying 260 by the Hourly Building Systems Cost ($48.07) would result in Excess Operating Hours Rent payable with respect to the first Lease Year equal to $12,498.20. In the same example, if the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index between the Lease Commencement Date and the first day of the second Lease Year were three percent (3%), then the Hourly Building Systems Cost for the second Lease Year would be $49.51. If Tenant's hours of operation in the second Lease Year were 4,680, then the excess number of hours (520), multiplied by the escalated Hourly Building Systems Cost ($49.51), would result in Excess Operating Hours Rent payable with respect to the second Lease Year equal to $25,745.20. Landlord shall make a determination as to whether Excess Operating Hours Rent is payable in accordance herewith following the conclusion of each Lease Year and shall provide notice thereof to Tenant. The amount due from Tenant pursuant to each such notice from Landlord shall be payable within fifty (50) days following demand therefor; provided that, if Tenant disputes Landlord's determination, then the matter shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with Article XXVIII below. Landlord agrees to provide an access control system for the Building that will afford Tenant access to the Premises twenty-four (24) hours per day every day of the year. At least one (1) elevator serving the Premises shall be in service at all times. Except as otherwise specified herein, Landlord shall not be required to furnish services and utilities during hours in excess of 68 hours per week unless Tenant agrees to compensate Landlord for the costs of such services and utilities.
13.2 It is understood and agreed that Landlord shall not have any liability to Tenant whatsoever as a result of Landlord's inability to furnish any of the utilities or services required to be furnished by Landlord under the terms of this Lease, whether resulting from breakdown, removal from service for maintenance or repairs, strikes, scarcity of labor or materials, acts of God, governmental requirements or from any other cause whatsoever. It is further agreed that, except as provided in this Section 13.2, any such inability to furnish the utilities or services required hereunder shall not be considered an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the Premises, and hold harmless Landlord from and against all lossesshall not entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease or to an abatement of any rent payable hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else in this Lease, claims, demands, expenses and judgments caused by, or directly or indirectly arising from, the acts or omissions of Tenant’s electricity provider (including, but not limited to, expenses and/or fines incurred by Landlord in the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof for five (5) consecutive business days or for ten (10) business days in any twelve (12) month period (the "ELIGIBILITY PERIOD") as a result of any interruption of utilities or services or access (including elevator access) or any repair, maintenance or alteration performed by Landlord after the Lease Commencement Date (other than repairs undertaken pursuant to Article XVI hereof) which renders the Premises inaccessible or untenantable (the foregoing circumstances being referred to herein as "SUSPENSION EVENTS"), then all Annual Base Rent and additional rent payable hereunder shall be reduced after expiration of the Eligibility Period for such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or a portion thereof, in the proportion that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable area of the Premises; provided that, any interruption of utilities or services resulting from Tenant’s 's failure to timely pay for any electricity provider fails that is billed directly to provide sufficient power Tenant by the electric utility pursuant to Section 4.7 hereof shall not be deemed a Suspension Event and shall not entitle Tenant to any rent abatement hereunder. Landlord will repair and restore any such interrupted services or utilities as soon as reasonably practicable following the interruption thereof.
13.3 Tenant shall employ its own contractor or personnel to furnish char and janitorial service to the Premises, and shall pay for such services directly to the contractor employed by Tenant for such purpose. Tenant's janitorial contractor, and the cleaning specifications incorporated into Tenant's contract with its janitorial contractor, shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such services shall be provided in accordance with cleaning standards customarily maintained in first-class suburban office buildings in the North Bethesda/Rockville/Gaithersburg corridor. In the event Landlord reasonably determines that the Premises are not being kept clean in accordance with such standards, Tenant agrees to take all measures reasonably required by Landlord for the proper cleanliness of the Premises in accordance with such standards upon notice from Landlord. If Tenant fails to institute such measures promptly after notice from Landlord, Landlord shall have the right, at its option, to provide cleaning and janitorial services for the Premises in accordance with such standards and to charge Tenant all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, together with a fee equal to fifteen percent (15%) of such costs and expenses so incurred, as well as damages resulting from additional rent hereunder. Except in situations posing an emergency or a health hazard or danger to persons or property, Landlord shall not undertake any action under the improper preceding sentence unless such violation or faulty installation failure shall continue uncured for a period of fifteen (15) days after Landlord has given notice to Tenant of such violation or construction failure; provided that if such violation or failure is not susceptible of facilities being cured within such fifteen (15) day period, Landlord shall not undertake any action if Tenant commences curative action within such fifteen (15) day period and proceeds diligently thereafter to cure such violation or equipment in or on failure until completion. If Tenant so requests at any time during the Lease Term, Landlord will arrange for janitorial service to be furnished to the Premises by Tenant or Tenant’s electricity provider. Nothing contained Landlord's janitorial contractor; provided that, in this such instance, the two percent (2%) limit on the management fee specified in Section shall restrict Landlord’s right to require at any time separate metering of utilities furnished to the Premises. Landlord shall separate, meter for the Premises for electricity consumption and the cost of any such meter and its installation, maintenance and repair 4.2(a)(ix) hereof shall be paid increased to two and one-fourth percent (2.25%). -38- 39

If Tenant uses machines or equipment that generates excessive heat the deficiencies are not, in Tenant's reasonable judgment, substantially corrected during the Premises that affects the temperature otherwise maintained by the HVAC system, Landlord reserves the right to install supplementary air conditioning units in the Premises and the cost thereof, including the cost of installation, operation and maintenance thereof, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within next succeeding thirty (30) days days, then Tenant may deliver a further notice to Landlord advising Landlord of demand thereforsuch fact, and, provided Landlord will not incur any liability to the contractor as a result thereof, Landlord shall terminate the contract of such deficient contractor and select a qualified replacement contractor.
