other of any one claiming through or under each of them by way of subrogation or

waiver shall not invalidate the insurance. If, and to the extent that, such
waiver can be obtained only by the payment of additional premiums. then the
party benefiting from the waiver shall pay such premium with ten (10) days after
written demand or shall be deemed to have agreed that the party obtaining
insurance coverage shall be free of any further obligation under the provisions
hereof with respect to waiver of subrogation. Tenant acknowledges that Owner
will not carry insurance on Tenant's furniture and/or furnishings or any
fixtures or equipment, improvements, or appurtenances removable by Tenant and

thereof be underlet or occupied by anybody other than Tenant, Owner may, after
default by Tenant, collect rent from the assignee, undertenant or occupant, and
apply the net amount collected to the rent herein reserved, but no such
assignment, underletting, occupant or collection shall be deemed a waiver of
this covenant, or the acceptance of the assignee, undertenant or occupant as
tenant or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of
covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. The consent by Owner to an
assignment or underletting shall not in any wise be construed to relieve Tenant
from obtaining the express consent in writing of Owner to any further assignment
or underletting.

rent inclusion, as the case may be, to be added in RIDER attached hereto. Tenant
covenants and agrees that at all times its use of electric current shall not

the purpose of showing the same to prospective purchasers or mortgagees of the
Building, and during the last six months of the term for the purpose of showing

entry into the premises, Owner or Owner's agents may enter the same whenever
such entry may be necessary or permissible by master key or forcibly and
provided reasonable care is exercised to safeguard Tenant's property. such entry
shall not render Owner or its agents liable therefor, nor in any event shall the
obligations of Tenant hereunder be affected. If during the last month of the

therefrom, Owner may immediately enter, alter, renovate or redecorate the
Demised Premises without limitation or abatement of rent, or incurring liability

diminution or abatement of rent, nor shall such revocation, diminution or
requisition be deemed constructive or actual eviction. Any tax, fee or charge of
municipal authorities for such vault or area shall be paid by tenant.

thereof, before presentation of proof of such liquidated damages to court
commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved upon such re-letting shall
be deemed to be the fair and reasonable rental value for the part or the whole
of the premises so re-let during the term of the re-letting. Nothing herein
contained shall limit or prejudice the right of the Owner to prove for and
obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such termination, an amount equal to

diligence and in good faith, proceed to remedy or cure such default, the Owner
may serve a written three (3) days' notice of cancellation of this Lease upon
Tenant, and upon the expiration of said three (3) days this Lease and the term
thereunder shall end and expire as fully and completely as if the expiration of
such three (3) day period were the day herein definitely fixed for the end and

given, and the term shall expire as aforesaid; or if Tenant shall make default

parts thereof, either in the name of Owner or otherwise, for a term or terms,

concessions or free rent or charge a higher rental than that in this Lease and
/or (C) Tenant or the legal representatives of Tenant shall also pay Owner as
liquidated damages for the failure of Tenant to observe and perform said
Tenant's covenants herein contained, any deficiency between the rent hereby
reserved and/or covenanted to be paid and the net amount, if any, of the rents
collected on account of the Lease or Leases of the Demised Premises for each
month of the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the
term of this Lease. The failure of Owner to re-let the premises or any part or
parts thereof shall not release or affect Tenant's liability for damages. In
computing such liquidated damages there shall be added to the said deficiency
such expenses as Owner may incur in connection with re-letting, such as legal
expenses, attorneys' fees, brokerage, advertising and for keeping the Demised
Premises in good order or for preparing the same for re-letting. Any such
liquidated damages shall be paid in monthly installments by Tenant on the rent
day specified in this Lease and any suit brought to collect the amount of the
deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the rights of Owner to
collect the deficiency of any subsequent month by a similar proceeding. Owner,

re-rental may, at Owner's option, make such alterations, repairs, replacements
and/or decorations in the Demised Premises as Owner, in Owner's sole judgment,
considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of re-letting the Demised
Premises, and the making of such alterations, repairs, replacement and/or
decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability
hereunder as

to re-let the Demised Premises or in the event that the Demised Premises are
re-let, for failure to collect the rent thereof under such re-letting, and in no
event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess, if any, of such net rents
collected over the sums payable by Tenant to Owner hereunder. In the event of a
breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the covenants or provisions
hereof, Owner shall have the right of injunction and the right to invoke any
remedy allowed at law or in equity as if re-entry, summary proceedings and other
remedies were not herein provided for. Mention in this lease of any particular
remedy, shall not preclude Owner from any other remedy, in law or in equity.
Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or
under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or
dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of Owner obtaining possession of
Demised Premises, by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants
and conditions of this Lease, or otherwise.

of Tenant thereunder. If Owner, in connection with the foregoing or in
connection with any default by Tenant in the covenant to pay rent hereunder,
makes any expenditures or incurs any obligations for the payment of money,
including but not limited to attorney's fees, in instituting, prosecuting or
defending any action or proceeding, then Tenant will reimburse Owner for such
sums so paid or obligations incurred with interest and costs. The foregoing
expenses incurred by reason of Tenant's default shall be deemed to be additional
rent hereunder and shall be paid by Tenant to Owner within five (5) days of
rendition of any xxxx or statement to Tenant therefor. If Tenant's Lease term
shall have expired at the time of making of such expenditures or incurring of
such obligations, such sums shall be recoverable by Owner as damages.
20. BUILDING ALTERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT. Owner shall have the right at
any time without the same constituting an eviction and without incurring
liability to Tenant therefor to change the arrangement and/or location of public
entrances, passageways, doors, doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets
or other public parts of the Building and to change the name, number or
designation by which the Building may be known. There shall be no allowance to
Tenant for diminution of rental value and no liability on the part of Owner by
reason of inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business arising from Owner or
other Tenants making any repairs in the Building or any such alterations,
additions and improvements. Furthermore, Tenant shall not have any claim against
Owner by reason of Owner's imposition of such controls of the manner of access
to the Building of Tenant's social or business visitors as the Owner may deem
necessary for the security of the Building and its occupants.
21. NO REPRESENTATIONS BY OWNER. Neither Owner nor Owner's agents have
made any representations or promises with respect to the physical condition of
the Building, the land upon which it is erected or the Demised Premises, the
rents, Leases, expenses of operation or any other matter or thing affecting or
related to the premises except as herein expressly set forth and no rights,
easements or licenses are acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise except
as expressly set forth in the provisions of this Lease. Tenant has inspected the
Building and the Demised Premises and Tenant is thoroughly acquainted with their
condition and agrees to take the same `as is' and acknowledges that the taking
of possession of the Demised Premises by
10
11
Tenant shall be conclusive evidence that the said premises and the Building of
which the same form a part were in good and satisfactory condition at the time
such possession was so taken, except as to latent defects. All understandings
and agreements heretofore made between the parties hereto are merged in this
contract, which alone fully and completely expresses the agreement between Owner
and Tenant and any executory agreement hereafter made shall be ineffective to
change, modify, discharge or effect an abandonment of it in whole or in part,
unless such executory agreement is in writing and signed by the party against
whom enforcement of the change, modification, discharge or abandonment is
sought.
22. END OF TERM. Upon the expiration or other termination of the term of
this Lease, Tenant shall quit and surrender to Owner this Demised Premises,
broom clean, in good order and condition, ordinary wear and damages which Tenant
is not required to repair as provided elsewhere in this Lease excepted, and
Tenant shall remove all its property. Tenant's obligation to observe or perform
this covenant shall survive the expiration or other termination of this Lease.
If the last day of the term of this Lease or any renewal thereof, falls on
Sunday, this Lease shall expire at noon on the preceding Saturday unless it be a
legal holiday in which case it shall expire at noon on the preceding business
day.
23. QUIET ENJOYMENT. Owner covenants and agrees with Tenant that upon
Tenant paying the rent and additional rent and observing and performing all the
terms, covenants and conditions, on Tenant's part to be observed and performed,
Tenant may peaceably and quietly enjoy the premises hereby demised, subject,
nevertheless, to the terms and conditions of this Lease including, but not
limited to, Article 30 hereof and to the ground leases, underlying leases and
mortgages hereinbefore mentioned.
24. FAILURE TO GIVE POSSESSION. If Owner is unable to give possession of
the Demised Premises on the date of the commencement of the term hereof, because
of the holding over or retention of possession of any tenant, undertenant or
occupants or if the Demised Promises are located in a Building being
constructed, because such Building has not been sufficiently completed to make
the premises ready for occupancy or because of the fact that a certificate of
occupancy has not been procured or for any other reason, Owner shall not be
subject to any liability for failure to give possession on said date and the
validity of the Lease shall not be impaired under such circumstances, nor shall
the same be construed in any wise to extend the term of this Lease, but the rent
payable hereunder shall be abated (provided Tenant is not responsible for
Owner's inability to obtain possession) until after Owner shall have given
Tenant written notice that the premises are substantially ready for Tenant's
occupancy. If permission is given to Tenant to enter into the possession of the
Demised Premises or to occupy premises other than the Demised Premises other
than the date specified as the commencement of the term of this Lease, Tenant
covenants and agrees that such occupancy shall be deemed to be under all the
terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease, except as to the
covenant to pay rent. The provisions of this Article are intended to constitute
"an express provision to the contrary" within the meaning of Section 223-a of
the New York Real Property Law.
25. NO WAIVER. The failure of Owner to seek redress for violation of, or
to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant or condition of this Lease
or of any of the Rules or Regulations, set forth or hereafter adopted by Owner,
shall not prevent a subsequent act which would have originally constituted a
violation from having all the force and effect of an original
11
12
violation. The receipt by Owner of rent with knowledge of the breach of any
covenant of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach and no
provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Owner unless such
waiver be in writing signed by Owner. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Owner
of a lesser amount than the monthly rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be
other than on account of the earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement
or statement of any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as
rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Owner may accept such check or
payment without prejudice to Owner's right to recover the balance of such rent
or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided. No act or thing done by Owner
or Owner's agents during the term hereby demised shall be deemed an acceptance
of a surrender of said premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall
be valid unless in writing signed by Owner. No employee of Owner or Owner's
agent shall have any power to accept the keys of said premises prior to the
termination of the Lease and the delivery of keys to any such agent or employee
shall not operate as a termination of the Lease or a surrender of the premises.
26. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. It is mutually agreed by and between Owner
and Tenant that the respective parties hereto shall and they hereby do waive
trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the
parties hereto against the other (except for personal injury or property damage)
on any matters whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this
Lease, the relationship of Owner and Tenant, Tenant's use of or occupancy of
said premises, and any emergency statutory or any other statutory remedy. It is
further mutually agreed that in the event Owner commences any summary proceeding
for possession of the promises, Tenant will not interpose any counterclaim of
whatever nature or description in any such proceeding including a counterclaim
under Article 4.
27. INABILITY TO PERFORM. This Lease and the obligation of Tenant to pay
rent hereunder and perform all of the other covenants and agreements hereunder
on part of Tenant to be performed shall in no wise be affected, impaired or
excused because Owner is unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this
Lease or to supply or is delayed in supplying any service expressly or impliedly
to be supplied or is unable to make, or is delayed in making any repair,
additions, alterations or decorations or is unable to supply or is delayed in
supplying any equipment or fixtures if Owner is prevented or delayed from so
doing by reason of strike or labor troubles or any cause whatsoever including,
but not limited to, government preemption in connection with a National
Emergency or by reason of any rule, order or regulation of any department or
subdivision thereof of any government agency or by reason of the conditions of
supply and demand which have been or are affected by war or other emergency.
28. BILLS AND NOTICES. Except as otherwise in this Lease provided, a
xxxx, statement, notice or communication which Owner may desire or be required
to give to Tenant, shall be deemed sufficiently given or rendered if, in
writing, delivered to Tenant personally or sent by registered or certified mail
addressed to Tenant at the Building of which the Demised Premises form a part or
at the last known residence address or business address of Tenant or left at any
of the aforesaid premises addressed to Tenant, and the time of the rendition of
such xxxx or statement and of the giving of such notice or communication shall
be deemed to be the time when the same is delivered to Tenant, mailed or left at

given or at such other address as Owner shall designate by written notice.

water consumption and Tenant shall pay for water consumed as shown on said meter
as additional rent as and when bills are rendered: (D) cleaning service for the
Demised Premises on business days at Owner's expense provided that the same are
kept in order by Tenant. If, however, said premises are to be kept clean by

enter said premises or the Building of which they are a part for such purpose.
Tenant shall pay Owner the cost of removal of any Tenant's refuse and rubbish
from the Building; (E) if the Demised Premises is serviced by Owner's air
conditioning/cooling and ventilating system, air conditioning/cooling will be
furnished to Tenant from May 15th through September 30th on business days
(Mondays through Fridays, holidays excepted) from 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. and
ventilation will be furnished on business days during the aforesaid hours except
when air conditioning/cooling is being furnished as aforesaid. If Tenant
requires air conditioning/cooling or ventilation for more extended hours or on
Saturdays, Sundays or on holidays, as defined under Owner's contract with
Operating Engineers Local 94-94A, Owner will furnish the same at Tenant's
expense. RIDER to be added in respect to rates and conditions for such
additional service: (F) Owner reserves the right to stop services of the
heating, elevators, plumbing, air conditioning, power systems or cleaning or
other services, if any, when necessary by reason of accident or for repairs,
alterations, replacements or improvements necessary or desirable in the judgment
of Owner for as long as may be reasonably required by reason thereof. If the
Building of which the Demised Premises are a part supplies manually operated
elevator service, Owner at any time may substitute automatic control elevator
service and upon ten days' written notice to Tenant, proceed with alterations
necessary therefor without in any wise affecting this Lease or the obligation of
Tenant hereunder. The same shall be done with a minimum of inconvenience to
Tenant and Owner shall pursue the alteration with due diligence.

retained by Owner as an administrative fee.
38. ELECTRICITY.
16
17
a. Owner agrees to supply Tenant with such electric current as
Tenant shall reasonably require (consistent with the existing electrical
capacity contained in the Demised Premises) for Tenant's wiring facilities and
equipment within the Demised Premises as of the commencement of occupancy
thereof by Tenant, and in consideration thereof Tenant agrees that the basic
annual rent reserved in the within Lease shall be increased by the agreed upon
sum of Fourteen Thousand Three Hundred Dollars ($14,300) (the "Base Charge"),
retroactive to the date of possession which Base Charge increase to basic annual
rent shall in no event be subject to reduction but shall be subject to being
increased as hereinafter provided. Owner shall not be liable in any way to
Tenant for any failure or defect in the supply or character of electric energy
furnished to the Demised Premises by reason of any requirement, act or omission
of the public utility serving the Building with electricity or for any other
reason not attributable to Owner. Tenant shall furnish and install all lighting
tubes, lamps, bulbs and ballasts required in Demised Premises, at Tenant's
expense, or shall pay Owner's reasonable charges therefor on demand except with
respect to air conditioning supplied to tenants of this Building through a
centrally located air conditioning system which Owner may have agreed to supply
to Tenant at Owner's sole costs and expense as shall be specified, if
applicable, in a separate Article of this Lease. Tenant shall pay for the cost
of electricity consumed, including central air conditioning by any air
conditioning equipment located in the Demised Premises as well as any other air
conditioning equipment furnishing, in conjunction with the operation of,
conditioned air to the Demised Premises irrespective of whether any such
equipment is located in the Demised Premises or in any other portion of the
Building. The term "equipment" as used herein shall be deemed to include,
without limitation, all components and auxiliary equipment used in connection
with air conditioning equipment servicing the Demised Premises including
Tenant's pro rata share of the cost of the electrical operation of the cooling
tower(s) used in connection therewith if the air conditioning equipment is water
cooled.
b. After Tenant shall have entered into possession of the Demised
Premises, or any portion thereof, Owner, at anytime and from time to time during
the term of this Lease, shall have the right to have surveys made by Owner's
electrical consultant of the electrical consumption within the Demised Premises
and the determination of said electrical consultant shall determine whether the
Base Charge for electricity (as same may have been increased by previous surveys
and determinations made by Owner's electrical consultant) is less than the then
electrical consumption charge determined by Owner's electric consultant to be
properly payable by Tenant as a result of the then current survey determination
made by said electrical consultant and if the Base Charge shall be less than the
electrical consumption charge so determined by Owner's consultant to be
applicable to Tenant's consumption of electricity then, effective as of the date
of occupancy in the case of the first survey and effective as of the date of the
making of the second and subsequent surveys the Base Charge increase to basic
annual rent (as same may have been previously increased pursuant to the
provisions hereof) shall be further increased by an amount equal to the
difference between: (1) the Base Charge increase (plus any previous increases to
the Base Charge increase in accordance with the provisions hereof); and (2) the
then electrical consumption charge determined to be applicable by Owner's
consultant.
Survey made by Owner's electrical consultant shall be based upon the use
of such electric current between the hours of 8 A.M. to 6 P.M. on Mondays
through Fridays, and 8 A-M, to 1 P.M. on Saturdays and such other days and hours
when Tenant uses electricity for lighting and for the operations of the
machinery, appliances and equipment used by Tenant in the Demised
17
18
Premises. In addition, if cleaning services are provided by Owner, such survey
shall include Owner's normal cleaning hours of up to five hours per day for
lighting within the Demised Premises and for electrical equipment normally used
in such cleaning.
The cost of the first survey made by Owner's electrical consultant shall
be borne by Owner. With respect to subsequent surveys, if Owner's consultant
shall determine that there has been an increase in Tenant's use of electrical
current then, in addition to the other requirements and obligations imposed on
Tenant in this Article, Tenant shall pay the fees of the electrical consultant
making such survey. The findings of such electrical consultant shall be binding
and conclusive on Owner and Tenant.
c. Tenant's use of electric energy in the Demised Premises shall
not at any time exceed the capacity of any of the electrical conductors,
machinery and equipment in or otherwise serving the Demised Premises. In order
to insure that such capacity is not exceeded and to avert possible adverse
effect upon the Building electric service, Tenant shall not, without Owner's
prior written consent in each instance, connect any additional fixtures,
machinery, appliances or equipment to the Building electric distribution system
or make any alteration or addition to Tenant's machinery, appliances or
equipment or the electric system of the Demised Premises existing on the
commencement date of the term hereof. Should Owner grant such consent all
additional risers or other equipment required therefor shall be provided by
Owner and the cost thereof shall be paid by Tenant upon Owner's demand. As a
condition to granting such consent, Owner may require Tenant to agree to an
increase in the basic annual rent by an amount which will reflect the value of
the additional service to be furnished by Owner, that is, the potential
additional electrical current to be made available to Tenant based upon the
estimated additional capacity of such additional risers to other equipment. If
Owner and Tenant cannot agree thereon, such amount shall be determined by an
electrical engineer or consultant to be selected by Owner and paid by Tenant.
When the amount of such increase is so determined, the parties shall execute an
agreement supplementary hereto to reflect such increase in the amount of basic
annual rent stated in this Lease effective from the date such additional service
is made available to Tenant; but such increase shall be effective from such date
even if such supplementary agreement is not executed.
d. If the public utility rate schedule for the supply of electric
current to the Building or the utility company fuel adjustment charge or demand
charge shall be increased or decreased at any time after the date hereof, or if
there shall be a change in taxes or if additional taxes shall be imposed on the
sale or furnishing of such electric current, or if there shall be a change in
the space constituting the Demised Premises, or if Tenant's failure to maintain
its machinery and equipment in good order and repair causes greater consumption
of electrical current, or if Tenant uses electricity on days or hours other than
those specified in subparagraph (b) hereof, or if Tenant adds any machinery,
appliances or equipment, the basic annual rent herein reserved shall be
equitably adjusted to reflect any or all of the foregoing as may be applicable.
If Owner and Tenant cannot agree thereon, the amounts of such adjustment(s)
shall be determined, based on standard practices, by any electrical engineer or
consultant, to be selected by Owner and paid by Tenant and the findings of said
electrical engineer or consultant shall be binding and conclusive upon the
parties. When the amounts of such adjustment are so determined, the parties
shall execute an agreement supplementary hereto to reflect such adjustment in
the amount of the of the basic annual rent stated in this Lease effective from
the
18
19
date of the increase or decrease of such usage as determined by such electrical
engineer, or consultant, or as the case may be, from the effective date of such
increase or decrease in the public utility rate schedule; but such adjustment
shall be effective from such date whether or not such a supplementary agreement
is executed.
e. Owner reserves the right to discontinue furnishing electric
current to Tenant in the Demised Premises at any time upon not less than thirty
(30) days' notice to Tenant. If Owner exercises such right of termination, this
Lease shall continue in full force and effect and shall be unaffected thereby,
except only that, from and after the effective date of such termination, Owner
shall not be obligated to furnish electric energy to Tenant and the basic annual
rent payable under this Lease shall be reduced by the amount of any previous
increases thereto an on account of electricity supplied pursuant to the
provisions of this Article. Owner, upon the expiration of the aforesaid notice
to Tenant, may discontinue furnishing the electric current; but, if, for any
reason, the supply of electric current by Owner to the Tenant shall thereafter
continue for any period of time, this shall be without waiver of the right of
Owner thereafter to terminate the same without further notice, and the Tenant
shall continue to pay the basic annual rent as increased pursuant to this
Article as herein provided until such time as the supply of current shall in
fact be discontinued. If Owner so discontinues furnishing electric energy to
Tenant, Tenant shall arrange to obtain electric energy directly from the public
utility company furnishing electric service to the Building. Such electric
energy may be furnished to Tenant by means of the then existing Building system
feeders, risers and writing to the extent that the same are, in Owner's sole
judgment, available, suitable and safe for such purposes. All meters and
additional panel boards, feeders, risers, wiring and other conductors and
equipment which may be required to obtain electric energy directly from such
public utility company shall be installed and maintained by Tenant at its
expense. In addition and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Article, Owner at anytime during the term of this Lease on not less than
thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Tenant may require Tenant to purchase
electricity from Owner or from a meter company designated by Owner upon the
terms of such submetering clause that may then be currently used by Owner in the
Building of which the Demised Premises form a part. If Owner shall elect to have
Tenant purchase electricity directly from Owner or Owner's designated meter
company as aforesaid, then Owner at Owner's sole cost and expense (but with
Tenant's reasonable cooperation) shall perform all wiring as may be necessary to
have Tenant's electrical consumption measured by submeters provided by Owner at
Owner's sole cost and expense.
f. If any tax is imposed upon Owner with respect to electrical
energy furnished as a service to Tenant by any federal, state, municipal or
other authority, Tenant covenants and agrees that where permitted by law or
applicable regulations, Tenant's pro rata share of such taxes, shall be
reimbursed by Tenant to Owner within ten (10) days after being billed therefor.
39. OPERATING EXPENSE ESCALATION INDEX. Intentionally omitted.
40. REAL ESTATE TAX ESCALATION. In addition to the basic annual rent
hereinbefore reserved, Tenant covenants and agrees to pay to Owner as additional
rent, sums computed in accordance with the following provisions:
19
20

shall not in any manner be construed to relieve Tenant from obtaining Owner's
express written consent to any other or further assignment or subletting nor
shall any such consent by Owner serve to relieve or release Tenant from its
obligations to fully and faithfully observe and perform all of the terms,
covenants and conditions of this Lease on Tenant's part to be observed and

make an assignment or a subletting of all or substantially all of the Demised
Premises Owner shall have the option to cancel and terminate this Lease as of
the date proposed by Tenant for such assignment or subletting, which option

day period, of canceling and terminating this Lease only as to such portion of
the Demised Premises to take effect as of the proposed effective date thereof as
stated in Tenant's notice. In the event Owner exercises its option under this
subparagraph (2) the rent and all other charges payable hereunder shall be
equitably adjusted and apportioned.
c. If Owner does not exercise its right of cancellation under
either of the foregoing two options granted under subparagraph (b) hereof within
the time set forth therein, Tenant agrees to then use Xxxx Equities LTD. as its
exclusive rental agent, having the sole and exclusive right to lease, at agent's
then prevailing commission rates, and to promptly notify such renting agent of
its desire to assign or sublet its Lease, (notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant
shall have the right to attempt to assign Tenant's interest in this Lease or
sublease all or portions of the Demised Premises to third parties procured by
Tenant or by outside brokers whom Tenant may wish to utilize provided, however

assignee or subtenant; (ii) the terms and conditions of the proposed assignment
or subletting; (iii) the nature and character of the business and credit of the
proposed assignee or subtenant, and any other information reasonably requested
by the Owner.
Owner shall have the further option, to be exercised within thirty (30)
business days from submission of Tenant's request, to require Tenant to execute
an assignment or sublease to Owner or Owner's designee on the same terms and
conditions in Owner's own name, or the name of Owner's designee, with a right to
sublease to others without Tenant's consent being required for such or any
further sublettings. If Owner shall not exercise its foregoing further option
within the time set forth, its consent to any such proposed assignment or
subletting shall not be unreasonably withheld or unduly delayed, provided,
however, that Owner may withhold consent thereto if in the exercise of its sole
judgment it determines that:
(1) The financial condition and general reputation of the
proposed assignee or subtenant are not consistent with the extent of the
obligation undertaken by the proposed assignment or sublease.
(2) The proposed use of the Demised Premises is not
appropriate for the Building or in keeping with the character of the existing
tenancies or permitted by the Tenant's Lease (but the foregoing shall not be
deemed to enlarge the purposes for which the Demised Premises are permitted to
be used as set forth in this Lease).
22
23
(3) The nature of the occupancy of the proposed assignee
or subtenant will cause an excessive density of employees or traffic or make
excessive demands on the Building's services or facilities or in any other way

the time is a tenant or occupant of the premises in the Building of which the
Demised Premises are a part (or to a subsidiary or related entity of such a
tenant or occupant) or to one who at the time is a tenant or occupant of
promises in any other Building then managed by Xxxx Equities LTD.

portion of the Demised Premises at a rental rate less than the rental rate Owner
is then asking for other space in the Building. In the event Owner should
withhold or delay its consent to any proposed assignment or sublease, the sole
remedy of Tenant shall be to institute action for specific performance if Tenant
believes that such withholding or delaying of consent was unreasonable and
Tenant hereby expressly waives any claim for monetary damages by reason of such
withholding or delaying of consent by Owner.
d. Further, and as a condition of Owner's consent to any
assignment or subletting:
(1) That Tenant at the time of requesting Owner's consent
shall not be in default in the payment of any rent, additional rent, or other
sums or charges provided to be paid by tenant hereunder and further that Tenant

conditions of this Lease. If Tenant shall duly comply with all of the foregoing

assignee has agreed to and does pay to Tenant in consideration of the making of
such assignment less however all out-of-pocket costs actually incurred by Tenant
in connection with the making of such assignment, including but not limited to
any brokerage fees, advertising and alteration costs; and (2) in the event of a
subletting the amount, if any, by which the fixed basic
23
24
rent and additional rent payable by the sublessee to Tenant shall exceed the
fixed basic rent plus additional rent allowable to that part of the Demised
Premises affected by such sublease, pursuant to any side agreement as
consideration (partial or otherwise) for Tenant making such subletting. Such
additional rent payments shall be made monthly within five (5) days after
receipt of the same by Tenant or within five (5) days after Tenant is credited
with the same by the assignee or subleasee. At the time of submitting the
proposed assignment or sublease to Owner, Tenant shall certify to Owner in
writing whether or not the assignee or sublessee has agreed to pay any monies to

the amounts and time of payment thereof in reasonable detail.
f. If this Lease shall be assigned, or if the Demised Premises or
any part thereof be sublet or occupied by any person or persons other than
Tenant, Owner may, after default by Tenant, collect rent from the assignee,
subtenant or occupant and apply the net amount collected (which may be treated
by Owner as rent or as use and occupancy) to the rent herein reserved but no
such assignment, subletting, occupancy or collection of rent shall be deemed a
waiver of the covenants in this Article, nor shall it be deemed acceptance of
the assignee, subtenant or occupant as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the
full performance by Tenant of all the terms, conditions and covenants of this
Lease.
g. Each permitted assignee or transferee shall assume and be
deemed to have assumed this Lease and shall be and remain liable jointly and
covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained on Tenant's part to be
performed for the term of this Lease and any renewals and severally with Tenant
for the payment of the rent, additional rent and adjustment of rent, and for the

deliver to Owner a duplicate original of the instrument of assignment which
contains a covenant of assumption by the assignee of all the obligations
aforesaid and shall obtain from Owner the aforesaid written consent prior
thereto. Any assignment, sublease or agreement permitting the use and occupancy
of the premises to which Owner shall not have expressly consented in writing
shall be deemed null and void and of no force and effect.

Office Lease dated November 22, 1999, by and between 1995 CAM LP, a New York
Partnership, c/o XXXX EQUITIES LTD, 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx,
00000, party on the first part, hereinafter referred to as OWNER, and Virage,
Inc., a California corporation, having an office at 0000 0xx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx,
Xxx Xxxx, party of the second part, hereinafter referred to as TENANT. This
addendum shall be read in conjunction with the Standard Form of Lease and rider
attached hereto. If there should be any inconsistency or ambiguity between the
terms of this addendum and the rider portions of this Lease and/or the Standard
Form of Lease, then the addendum shall control.
The parties hereby covenant and agree as follows:
1. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Owner
shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any alterations, installations,
additions or improvements which are non-structural and which do not affect
utility services, plumbing or electrical systems in the Building.
2. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if due to
Owner's repairs necessitated by Owner's actions, Tenant is unable to use the
Demised Premises for the operation of Tenant's business therein for a period in
excess of twelve (12) consecutive business days, Tenant shall, in addition to
any rights Tenant may have, be entitled to the abatement of the basic annual
rent and additional rent from and after the expiration of said twelve (12)
consecutive business day period until the time that Tenant shall be able to
resume the conduct of its business in the Demised Premises.
3. The failure of Tenant to seek redress for a violation of, or to
insist upon the strict performance of any covenant or condition of this Lease
shall not prevent a subsequent act which would have originally constituted a
violation from having all the force and effect of any original violation. The
continuing compliance of Tenant with the terms of this Lease with knowledge of
breach of any covenant of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach
and no provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Tenant
unless such waiver is signed in writing by Tenant.

refuse and rubbish from the building which rubbish and refuse is of the nature
and kind disposed of in the ordinary course of business provided the same is
non-toxic and non-hazardous. Tenant recognizes and acknowledges that it may be
charged a fee and will promptly pay to Owner any such fee for the disposal of
bulky or excessive rubbish and refuse of the nature and kind disposed of outside
of the ordinary course of business.
5. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, after
receipt of notice from Tenant of its intention to lease or sublease all or part
of the Demised Premises, Owner shall have thirty (30) days within which to
exercise its options set forth in Clause 43 of said Lease to provide its consent
or denial to Tenant's proposal to sublet part or all of the Demised Premises.
Through this Addendum, Owner specifically consents to Tenant's subletting of no
more than
37
Thirty Percent (30%) of the Demised Premises to British Broadcasting
Corporation, pursuant to Clause 43 of the Standard Form of Office Lease.
6. In case it shall be necessary for Tenant to institute any action or
proceeding against Owner for the violation of any of the covenants and
provisions of this lease or for the recovery of possession of the Demised
Premises or should Tenant be compelled to intervene in any action or proceeding
wherein Owner is a party in order to enforce or protect Tenant's rights or
interests hereunder, then and in any of such events, if Tenant shall be
successful in such action or proceeding, Owner shall be obligated to pay
Tenant's reasonable attorney's fees, costs and disbursements incurred for the
institution and prosecution of any such action, proceeding or intervention.
7. Owner and Tenant hereby agree and covenant to act in good faith and
use their best efforts, without Owner incurring monetary expense, to work
jointly to obtain an agreement from British Broadcasting Corporation to
contribute monies to reimburse Tenant for expenses Tenant incurs in undertaking
improvements to the Demised Premises.
