Dollars ($75,000.00) in consideration for Seller’s occupancy and possession of the Building during
the Post-Occupancy Term. The monthly use and occupancy fee for any partial month during the

partial month that Seller remains in occupancy and possession of the Building and any such amount
previously paid in excess of the amount determined due shall be refunded to Seller.
3. Real Estate Taxes and Insurance. During the Post-Occupancy Term Seller will, within
ten (10) days after Purchaser’s request therefor, reimburse Purchaser for fifty percent (50%) of
all (i) real estate taxes, and (ii) premiums for casualty and liability insurance incurred or paid
for by Purchaser relating to the Building. In addition, Seller will defend, indemnify and hold
Purchaser harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, damages and expenses which
Purchaser may suffer, incur or sustain, or for which Purchaser may become liable, by virtue of the
injury to or death of any person(s), or the loss of property owned by Seller’s customers, including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or in connection with Seller’s use
and occupancy of the Building from and after the Effective Date until the end of the Post-Occupancy
Term to the extent not reimbursed to Purchaser through insurance proceeds. In the event of a
casualty rendering the Building partially untenantable and capable of prompt restoration, Purchaser
shall promptly restore the Building and improvements. In the event of a casualty rendering the
building wholly untenantable or not capable of prompt restoration, this Agreement shall terminate
and Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of insurance proceeds related to Seller’s damaged
property. Rent and other obligations shall xxxxx on an equitable basis during any period of
untenantability.
4. Utilities. Seller shall pay for the cost of any and all utility consumption and
telephone charges incurred in the Building during the Post-Occupancy Term until Seller vacates and
