Section 2.01 Payment
All rent and other charges payable to the Landlord under any provision
of this Lease shall be paid to the Landlord, or as the Landlord may otherwise
designate, in lawful money of the United States at the address of the Landlord
or at such other place as the Landlord in writing may designate, without any
set-off or deduction whatsoever, and without any prior demand therefor. In
addition to the payment of the Rent and other charges, the Tenant shall also pay

Section 2.02 Minimum Rent
The fixed minimum annual rent during the term of this Lease shall be
payable by the Tenant in equal monthly installments on or before the first day
of each month in advance without any prior demand therefor and without any
deduction and set-off whatsoever, and shall be as follows:
1. The minimum rent for the first twelve months shall be One thousand nine
hundred eighty six and 67/100 ($1,986.67) Dollars per month for a total
of Twenty three thousand eight hundred forty and 04/100 ($23,840.04)
Dollars for the twelve month period.
2. The minimum rent for the next twelve months shall be determined by
Section 2.03 of the Lease Agreement using the prior period as the base
period.
3. The minimum rent for the next three months shall be determined by
Section 2.03 of the Lease Agreement using the period as the base
period.
Section 2.03 Adjustment of Fixed Minimum Rent
The annual Fixed Minimum Rent shall be subject to periodical adjustment
(but never below the amount specified in the previous lease year) on the first
day of each Lease Period and on each anniversary thereafter. Landlord shall
notify Tenant of the adjustment upon Landlord's calculation of same but the
failure to do so within any specific time shall not be a waiver or release of
Landlord's right to collect/charge the increased minimum rent. The term "index"
means the South Consumer Price Index, All Items, For All Urban Consumers
(1982-84-100) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or other governmental
agency then publishing the Index (or if such index is no longer published, the
Index of Consumer Prices in Miami most closely comparable to the Index). The
term "Base Number" means the index number immediately preceding the month in
which falls the first day of the prior lease period, for which the rent is being
calculated. The term "Current Number" means the index number immediately
preceding the month in which falls the date of commencement of the particular
Lease Period. If the latest Current Number exceeds the Base Number, then the
Fixed Minimum Rent for the next Lease Period shall be increased to an amount
which is the product obtained by multiplying the Fixed Minimum Rent set forth in
Section 2.02 of this lease by a fraction, the numerator of which fraction is
such latest Current Number and the denominator of which fraction is the Base
Number. Such increased Fixed Minimum Rent shall be effective throughout the
Lease Period next following such latest Current Number. The basic or minimum
rental for each year of the extended time shall not be less than the amount of
rent being paid during the prior lease year. As used herein, the term "Lease
Period" means the First Lease Period which is 12 months and each consecutive
period, except that if the commencement date of the Lease Term is a day other
than the first day of a calendar month, then the first lease Period shall
include the number of days beginning with such commencement date and ending on
the last day of such month. This Section 2.03 shall apply to the Item #2 & #3 of
section 2.02. The minimum annual increase shall not be less than 4 percent.
Section 2.04 Real Estate Taxes
For the purposes of this Section, the term "taxes" shall include all
real estate taxes, assessment (general and special) and other governmental
impositions and charges of every kind and nature whatsoever, extraordinary as
well as ordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, and each and every installment
thereof which shall or may during the lease term be levied, assessed, imposed,
become due and payable, or liens upon, or arise in connection with the use,
occupancy or possession of, or grow due or payable out of, or for, the building
or any part thereof, or the land (the "Parcel") upon which the building is
situated or any other improvements thereon. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord
Tenant's share of taxes, as herein provided. Tenant's proportionate share of
taxes assessed with respect to all buildings in the industrial Park shall be
determined by multiplying the amount of such taxes by a fraction, the
denominator of which shall be the rentable square foot area of all buildings
constructed in the Industrial Park upon which any such taxes are assessed and
the numerator of which shall be the total number of square feet of ground floor
area contained in the demised premises as set forth in Section 1.01 hereof.
Taxes shall be prorated as of the commencement date of the Lease upon the due
date basis of the appropriate taxing authorities.
In addition to the foregoing, should the State of Florida or any
political subdivision thereof or any governmental authority having jurisdiction
thereover, impose a tax and/or assessment (other than a franchise tax) upon or
against the rentals payable hereunder by Tenant or Landlord, either by way of
substitution for the taxes and assessments levied or assessed against such land
and such buildings, or in addition hereto, such tax and/or assessments shall be
paid by Tenant.
Landlord will estimate the obligations anticipated to be required to be
paid by Tenant to Landlord as provided in this Section 2.04 and Tenant shall pay
1/12 thereof in equal monthly installments together with the payment of minimum
annual rent. In the event that the aggregate of Tenant's installments during the
year shall be less than the amount of the obligations due from Tenant, such
deficiency shall be paid to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after demand
therefor. If there shall have been an overpayment by Tenant, Tenant shall be
given a credit towards the next due payment of its share of taxes.
Notwithstanding any thing in this Section 2.04 to the contrary, all
costs and expenses incurred by Landlord during negotiations for or contests of
the amount of the taxes shall be included with the term "Taxes". In the event a
refund is obtained, Landlord shall credit a portion thereto the next installment
of rent due from Tenant in proportion to the share of such taxes originally paid
by Tenant from which the refund was derived.
In addition to the foregoing, Tenant at all times shall be responsible
for and shall pay, before delinquency, all taxes levied, assessed or unpaid on
any leasehold interest, any right of occupancy, any investment of Tenant in the
Demised Premises, or any personal property of any kind owned, installed or used
by Tenant, including Tenant's leasehold improvements or on Tenant's right to
occupy the Demised Premises.
Section 2.05 Additional Rent
The Tenant shall pay as additional rent any money and charges required
to be paid pursuant to the terms of this Lease Agreement, whether or not the
same may be designated "additional rent". If such amounts or charges are not
paid at the time provided in the Lease, they shall nevertheless, if not paid
when due, be collectible as rent thereafter falling due hereunder, but nothing
herein contained shall be deemed to suspend or delay the payment of any amount
of money or charge at the time the same becomes due and payable hereunder, or
limit any other remedy of the Landlord.
2
Section 2.06 Past Due Rent
If Tenant shall fail to pay any rent or additional rent when the same

thereof to the date of payment at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum.
