lease the amount of Elective Leased Space which, when added to Strategic Anchor
Tenant's Minimum Space Obligation, will total [*] of the total square
footage of the applicable Facility (its "Maximum Unilateral Election"); or (iii)
elect to lease an amount of Elective Leased Space which is less than its Maximum
Unilateral Election.
(d) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the amount of
Elective Leased Space for Strategic Anchor Tenant under Subsection 3.2(c)(iii)

3.5 HUBCO RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ON FUTURE SPACE REQUIREMENTS.
If Strategic Anchor Tenant requires carrier hotel/collocation
facilities in any location, HUBCO will have a right of first refusal to provide
such facilities on terms consistent with those set forth in this Article 3.

party for the development of such a facility (such notice a "ROFR Notice").
HUBCO will notify Strategic Anchor Tenant of whether HUBCO intends to provide
the additional facilities requested within [*] days of receiving the ROFR
Notice. If HUBCO declines to provide such facilities in the city requested, with

Strategic Anchor Tenant has received a third party offer, upon the material
terms set forth in such third party offer, Strategic Anchor Tenant will be free
to develop its own carrier hotel/collocation facilities in such city, on the
express condition that Strategic Anchor Tenant (i) develops facilities no larger

forth in such ROFR Notice; (ii) executes and enters into a binding agreement to
develop such facilities within [*] days of HUBCO's declination of the
opportunity to provide the additional facilities requested by Strategic Anchor
Tenant on terms no less favorable in the aggregate to Strategic Anchor Tenant

contains more than [*] square feet of rentable space, offers to HUBCO the
right to lease space comparable to Raw Space in such additional facilities in an
amount equal to the lesser of (x) [*] of the total rentable area of such
facility and (y) [*] square feet, at a rate per square foot not more than
the lowest rate per square foot paid by any other tenant in such facility.
3.6 RELOCATION.
HUBCO reserves the right, at HUBCO's sole cost, to change the
location or configuration of the Space, provided however, that HUBCO shall not
arbitrarily or discriminatorily require such changes. HUBCO and Strategic Anchor
Tenant shall work in good faith to minimize any disruption in Strategic Anchor
Tenant's use of the Space that may be caused by such changes in location or
configuration of the Space.
3.7 RIGHT TO MATCH.
If at any time after the Effective Date of this Agreement
HUBCO enters into another strategic anchor tenant agreement covering the same
subject matter as this Agreement (such agreement a "Third Party Agreement") then
Strategic Anchor Tenant shall have the right to elect to amend and restate this
Agreement so that the terms and conditions of this Agreement conform in their
entirety with the terms and conditions of the Third Party Agreement. If
Strategic Anchor Tenant makes the election outlined in the foregoing sentence,
Strategic Anchor Tenant shall not have the right to conform this Agreement with
only selected provisions of the Third Party Agreement but must amend and restate
this Agreement to conform with the Third Party Agreement in its entirety.
