the notice by Landlord, unless Landlord substantially completed such restoration
within such thirty (30) day period, in which case, Tenant's notice of
termination shall be null and void and of no further force and effect.

releases and waives all rights of recovery against Tenant, its agents and
employees for damage or destruction or its office Building, fixtures, equipment

its sole judgment may find necessary for the building of which the demised
premises are a part.

or any part thereof, they may be so removed, but shall be replaced at Landlord's
expense when said repairs, alterations or improvements have been completed. Any
signs permitted by Landlord shall at all times conform with all municipal
ordinances or other laws and regulations applicable thereto.

premises. The recording of such mortgage or mortgages shall have preference and
precedence and be superior and prior in lien to this lease, irrespective of the

one-year period commencing on the execution of the mortgage, so long as Tenant
is not default of any term, covenant or condition of the Lease, tenant shall not
be disturbed by
lender in Tenant's possession, enjoyment, use and occupancy of the premises.
Such non-disturbance agreement (a) shall be in substance and form acceptable to
lender, (b) shall not extend beyond the on-year period commencing on the
execution of the mortgage, and c) shall only apply to the first such mortgage
affecting the premises after the date of this lease. A refusal by tenant to
execute such instruments shall entitle Landlord to the option of canceling this

performed all such covenants and conditions and is not in default or arrears in
rent. During the term hereof, Landlord may, if Landlord so elects, apply such
security, to make good any default by tenant, in which event Tenant shall, on
demand, promptly restore said security to its original amount. Liability to
repay said security to Tenant shall run with the reversion and title to said
premises whether any change in ownership thereof be by voluntary alienation or

exercise of a right of taking or entry by any mortgagee. Landlord shall assign
or transfer said security, for the benefit of Tenant, to any subsequent owner or
holder of the reversion or title to said premises, in which case the assignee
shall become liable for the repayment thereof as herein provided, and the
assignor shall be deemed to be released by tenant from all liability to return
such security. This provision shall be applicable to every alienation or change
in title and shall in no way be deemed to permit landlord to retain the security
after termination of Landlord's ownership of the reversion or title. Tenant
shall not mortgage, encumber or assign said security without the written consent
of Landlord.
14th: INCREASE OF INSURANCE RATES: If for any reason it shall be
impossible to obtain fire and other hazard insurance on the building and
improvements on the leased premises, in an amount and in the form, from an
insurance company with an A.M. Best Rating of "A" or Better, generally available
for buildings of this type in New Jersey, Landlord may, if Landlord so elects at
any time thereafter, terminate this lease and the term hereof , upon giving to
Tenant ninety (90) days notice in writing of Landlord's intention so to do, and
upon the giving of such notice this lease and the term thereof shall terminate.
If by reason of the use to which the premises are put by Tenant or character of
or the manner in which Tenant's business is carried on, the insurance rates for
fire and other hazards shall be increased, Tenant shall upon demand pay to
Landlord, as rent, the amounts by which the premises for such insurance are
increased. Such payment shall be paid with the next installment of rent but in
no case later than one month after such demand, whichever occurs sooner.

other action shall be instituted for the taking or condemnation thereof, or in
lieu of any formal condemnation proceedings or actions, Landlord shall grant
option to purchase and or shall sell and convey the said premises or any portion
thereof, to the governmental or other
5

premises or any portion thereof, then this lease, at the option of the Landlord,
shall terminate, and the term hereof shall end as of such date and Landlord
shall fix by notice in writing; and Tenant shall have no claim or right or claim
to be entitled to any portion of any amount which may be awarded as damages or
paid as the result of such condemnation proceedings or paid as the purchase
price of such option, sale or conveyance in lieu of formal condemnation
proceedings; and all rights of Tenants to damages, if any, are hereby assigned
to Landlord. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver any instruments, at the
expense of the Landlord, as may be deemed necessary or required to expedite any
condemnation proceedings or to effectuate a proper transfer of title to such
governmental or other public authority, agency, body or public utility seeking
to take or acquire the said lands and premises or any portion thereof. Tenant
covenants and agrees to vacate the said premises, remove all tenant's personal
property therefrom and deliver up peaceable possession thereof to Landlord or to
such other party designated by Landlord in the aforementioned notice. Failure by
Tenant to comply with any provisions in this clause shall subject Tenant to such
costs, expenses, damages and losses as Landlord may incur by reason of Tenant's
breach thereof.
16th: REMEDIES UPON TENANT'S DEFAULT:
a) If Tenant defaults in the performance of any of its obligations
hereunder, and such default continues for ten (10) days after the giving of
notice of such default with respect to the failure to pay any monies, or thirty
(30) days after the giving of notice of default with respect to the failure to
perform or comply with any non-monetary obligations of Tenant hereunder, then
Landlord may at its option terminate this Lease upon giving ten (10) days notice
of termination to Tenant, in which event neither Tenant nor any person claiming
through or under Tenant shall be entitled to possession or to remain in
possession of the Demised Premises but shall forthwith quit and surrender the
Demised Premises. Tenant shall have reasonable additional time beyond thirty
(30) days to cure a non-monetary default of Tenant has commenced to cure same
within thirty (3) days and thereafter proceeds with due diligence to cure same.
b) I. In the event that Tenant defaults under this Lease and such default
entitles Landlord to possession of the Demised Premises as hereinabove provided,
Landlord shall have the right to enter the Demised Premises, remove Tenant's
property and effects, without terminating this Lease or releasing Tenant, in
whole or in part, from Tenant's obligations to pay rent and all its other
obligations hereunder for the full term, relet the Demised Premises or any part
thereof, either in the same or for the account of Tenant, for such rent and for
such term or terms as Landlord may see fit, which term may, at Landlord's
option, extend beyond the balance of the term of this Lease. Landlord shall not
be required to accept any tenant offered by Tenant or to observe any
instructions given by Tenant about such reletting. In any such case, Landlord
may make such reasonable repairs, alterations and additions in and to the
Demised Premises and redecorate the same as it sees fit. Tenant shall pay
Landlord and deficiency between the rent hereby reserved and covenanted to be
paid and the net amount of rents collected on such reletting for the balance of
the term of this Lease, as well as any reasonable expense of repairing, altering
and redecorating the Demised Premises and otherwise preparing the same for
re-rental. All such expenses shall be paid by Tenant as additional rent upon
demand by Landlord. Any deficiency in rental shall be paid in monthly
installments, upon statements rendered by landlord by tenant. For the purpose of
determining the deficiency in rent, whether payable in installments or the
entire rental for the balance of the term, the rent reserved shall be deemed to
be guaranteed minimum rental herein provided for, as reduced by any rent
collected by reletting. Any suit brought to collect the amount of deficiency for
any one or more months shall not preclude any subsequent suit to collect the
deficiency for any subsequent months.
b) 2. In any case where Landlord has recovered possession of the Demised
Premises by reason of Tenant's default, Landlord may at Landlord's option, at
any time thereafter, without notice or other action by Landlord, and without
prejudice to any other rights or remedies Landlord might have hereunder or at
low or equity, become entitled to recover from Tenant, as damages for such
default, in addition to such other sums herein agreed to be paid by Tenant (to
the date of re-entry, expiration and/or dispossess), the amount, if any, by
which (i ) the sum of the fixed rent and additional rent (conclusively presuming
the additional rental to be the same as was payable for the Calendar Year
immediately preceding termination of the Lease) from the date of such default to
the date of expiration of the ten otherwise remaining term of this Lease;
exceeds (ii) the then fair and reasonable rental value of the Demised Premises
for the same period. If the Demised Premises or any part thereof is relet on an
arms-length basis by Landlord for the unexpired portion
6
of the term of this Lease or any part thereof, before presentation of proof of
such damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved
upon such reletting shall, prima facie, be the fair and reasonable rental value
for the Demised Premises, or part thereof, so relet during the term of the
reletting. Said damages shall become due and payable to Landlord immediately
upon such default of this Lease and without regard to whether this Lease be
terminated or no; and if this Lease be terminated, without regard to the manner
in which it is terminated. In the computation of such damage, the difference
between any installments of fixed rent and additional rental thereafter becoming
due and the fair and reasonable rental value of the Demised Premises for the
period of which such installment was payable shall be discounted to the date of
such default at the rate of not more than four (4%) percent per annum;
c) In addition to the rights granted to Landlord pursuant to Section B of
this Article 16, Landlord may require that, upon any termination of this Lease,
whether by lapse of time, the exercise of any option by Landlord to terminate
the same, or in any other manner whatsoever, or upon any termination of Tenant's
right to possession without termination of this Lease, Tenant shall at once
surrender possession of the Demised Premises to Landlord and immediately vacate
the same, and shall remove all its effects therefrom. If tenant fails to do so,
Landlord may, upon ten (10) days' notice, re-enter the Demised Premises, with or
without process of law, and repossess itself thereof as in its former estate and
expel and remove Tenant and any other person and properties therefrom, using
such reasonable force as may be necessary, without being deemed guilty of
conversion, trespass, eviction or forcible entry, and without thereby waiving
Landlord rights to rent or any other rights given Landlord under this Lease or
at law or in equity.
d) Tenant is in default of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord can
cure the default and Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord, as additional rent,
a sum of money equal to all reasonable amounts expended by landlord in curing
such default. If suit is brought by Landlord on account of any default and if
default is established, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all reasonable expenses of
such suit, as additional rent, including without limitation, reasonable
attorney's fees in the institution of any dispossession act or any other actions
as a result of Tenant's default. Any payment by tenant of a sum of money less
than the entire amount due Landlord at the time of such payment shall be applied
to the obligations of Tenant furthest in arrears. No endorsement or statement on
any check or accompanying any payment shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction
and any payment accepted by landlord shall be without prejudice to Landlord's
right to obtain the balance due or pursue any other remedy available to Landlord
in law and in equity.
e) If Tenant defaults in any payment of rent or additional rent, interest
shall accrue commencing on the fifth (5th) day following such due date until
paid at the greater of (i) interest at PNC Bank's Base Rate (as herein defined)
per annum plus tow (2%) percent per annum, or (ii) one and one-half percent (1
1/2%) per month, or if such rate is illegal, at the highest rate permitted by
law. PNC Bank's Base Rate shall mean the annual rate of interest announced
publicly by PNC Bank (or its successors) from time to time as its Base Rate (or
if same is discontinued, then the substitute rate therefor as announced by PNC
Bank (or its successors) or if no substitute rate is announced by PNC Bank (or
its successors), then the prime rate (the base rate on corporate loans) or
equivalent rate as published daily in The Wall Street Journal under the heading
"Money Rates".
f) If, at any time during the term of this Lease, there shall be filed by
or against Tenant, in any court pursuant to any statute either of the United
State for any state, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for the
reorganization or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator of
all or any portion of the assets of Tenant or if Tenant makes an assignment for
the benefit of creditors, or if Tenant admits in writing its or their inability
to pay its or their debts, and if, within ninety (90) days thereafter, Tenant
fails to secure a discharge thereof this Lease at the option of Landlord may be
canceled and terminated, in which event neither Tenant not any person claiming
through or under Tenant shall be entitled to possession or to remain in
possession of the Demised Premises but shall forthwith quit and surrender the
Demised Premises. Landlord shall have the right to remove all persons, goods,
fixtures and chattels therefrom, by force or otherwise, without liability for
damages.
7
g) Landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate
damages in the event of a default by Tenant (which shall not, however, obligate
Landlord to relet the Demised Premises during any period for which Landlord has
alternate comparable vacant premises in the Office Building).
h) In addition to any and all remedies set forth herein, Landlord shall
have all remedies available at law or in equity and any and all remedies shall
be cumulative and non exclusive.

All notices referred to hereunder shall be deemed given upon receipt after
said notice is mailed by United States registered or certified mail as

23rd: TITLE AND QUIET ENJOYMENT: Landlord covenants and represents that
Landlord is the owner of the premises herein leased and has the right and
authority to enter into, execute and deliver this lease; and does further
covenant that Tenant, on paying the rent and performing the conditions and
covenants herein contained, shall and may peacefully and quietly have, hold, and
enjoy the leased premises for the term aforementioned.
24th: ENTIRE CONTRACT: This lease contains the entire contract between the
parties. No representative, agent or employee of Landlord has been authorized to
make any representations or promises with reference to the within lease or to
vary, alter or modify the terms hereof. No additions, changes or modifications,
renewals or extensions hereof, shall be binding unless reduced in writing and
signed by Landlord and Tenant.
25th: SERVICES PROVIDED BY LANDLORD: Landlord shall provide:
a) Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (hereinafter called "HVAC")
to the Demised Premises during Building Hours, as appropriate for the season,
and lighting and electric energy for the Common Office Facilities as in
Landlord's sole judgment is necessary or desirable to insure proper operation of
the Office Building. As used in this Lease the "Building Hours" shall be Monday
through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., and Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00
p.m., excluding Sunday and those holidays set forth as follows: New Year's Day,
President's Day, memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and
Christmas Day. Landlord shall furnish HVAC for usual Office Building
requirements as set forth above. At additional cost to Tenant, based upon a
charge of Sixty and 00/100 ($60.00) Dollars per hour of any part thereof, as
such charge may be adjusted by Landlord from time to time upon written notice
thereof to Tenant, Landlord shall provide HVAC to the Demised Premises at other
times, provided that, with respect to any such additional service, a) Tenant
shall notify Landlord and request the same twenty-four (24) hours in advance and
b) if another tenant or tenants in the Office Building request such additional
service for the same period of time and same HVAC units which serve the Demised
Premises also serve such tenant's premises, then the additional cost will be
shared between Tenant and such tenant or tenant's based on the floor area of the
Demised Premises compared to the floor area of the premises leased by such other
tenant or tenant's. By way of example and not limitation, assume that Tenant
requests HVAC service Saturday morning from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and another
tenant in the Office Building who leased 14,735 square feet and whose HVAC is
provided through the same HVAC unit which also supplies the Demised Premises and
such other tenant also requests such HVAC service for the same day and time,
then the cost for such HVAC service to Tenant for such Saturday would be Forty
and 30/100, calculated as follows:
3 hours x $60 = $180.00 x [4252 sq. ft./4252 sq. ft. + 14,735 sq. ft.] =
$40.30
b) Running fresh hot and cold water for adequate Tenant purposes.
c) Cleaning services as set forth on Exhibit "B" annexed hereto and made a
part hereof, subject however to the conditions therein stated. Except as
provided for on Exhibit "B", Tenant shall pay the costs of all other cleaning
services required by Tenant.

access ways thereto), curbs and other exterior Common Office Facilities.

Regulations as landlord or Landlord's agents may from time to time adopt. Notice
of any additional rules or regulations shall be given at least ten (10) days
prior to becoming effective. The right to dispute the reasonableness of any
additional Rule or Regulation upon Tenant's part shall be deemed waived unless
the same shall be asserted by service of a notice in writing upon landlord
within ten (10) days after the serving of notice thereof. Nothing in this lease
contained shall be construed to impose upon Landlord any duty or obligation to

visitors or licensees.

shared equally by Tenant and Landlord. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Landlord may, at its option, and at its expense at any time

company (or Landlord in the event of submetering) for such usage.
