(hereinafter called "Base Rental"), payable in equal monthly installments of
Seven Thousand Five Hundred Seven & 50/100 ($7,507.50) U.S. dollars in
advance, without demand, deduction or set-off on the first day of each calendar
month during the term of this lease. All payments shall be made to Centennial

the Landlord in writing.
Other remedies for non-payment of rent under paragraph 31 or elsewhere
herein notwithstanding a service charge of fifteen (15%) percent of the rent
shall become due and payable in addition to the regular rent owned under this
lease if the monthly rent payment is not received by Landlord or Landlord's
Agent's office by the fifth (5th) day of the month for which said rent is due.
A pro-rata monthly installment shall be due for the first and last month
of the term should the term begin or end on other than the first or last day of
the calendar month. In accordance with paragraph 36 of this lease Tenant's
leasable area is calculated to be 5460 square feet.
(b) Commencing as early as practical with the first whole calendar year
in which the tenant shall occupy the leased premises, the tenant shall pay
Additional rent to Landlord to cover tenant's pro-rata share of the Landlord's
operating expense increases incurred during the time tenant occupies the leased
premises, calculated as follows:
(i) Within ten days from written demand served upon Tenant by Landlord,
tenant shall pay a lump sum to Landlord for the tenant's pro-rata
share of the increase, if any, in Landlord's operating expenses
incurred in the first operational year over the base year.

2
(ii) From the first month forward for each succeeding month after the
demand for the lump sum is made the tenant's rent shall be
calculated by dividing the tenant's pro-rata share of the increases
in Landlord's operating expense as determined in the previous
operational year or portion thereof into the months of that
operational year in which tenant shall occupy the leased premises,
and increasing the tenant's monthly rent to absorb that increase
accordingly.
(iii) Rent in each succeeding operational year shall be increased
accordingly, as set forth in subsection (ii) of this paragraph. A
lump sum to absorb the new annual increases in Landlord's operating
expenses shall also be due and payable within ten days of demand at
the beginning of each succeeding operational year as set forth in
subsection (i) of this paragraph.
Landlords failure during the term of this lease to prepare and deliver any of
the tax bills, statements, notices or bills referred to in this article, or
Landlords failure to demand payment of additional rent provided for hereunder,
shall not in any way cause Landlord to forfeit or surrender its right to collect
any additional rent which may have become due during the term of this lease.
(c) Tenants Proportionate Share of such increases in Landlords Operating
Expenses shall, for the purpose of the default provisions hereof, be deemed as
additional rental due from Tenant and shall entitle Landlord to all remedies
provided herein at law or equity on account of Tenant's failure to pay rent.
(d) Tenant shall also pay, to Landlord upon demand, in addition to the
rent and additional rent mentioned, the full amount of any sales, use or other
tax (excepting income tax) that may be levied upon this lease, the leasehold
estate of Tenant, or the rents reserved herein, it is being understood that any
sales tax on rent shall be added to the rents payable hereunder and shall be
paid by Tenant, all to the end that the rents payable by Tenant hereunder shall
be received by Landlord net of any tax payable to any governmental authority
other than Landlord's income tax. If Tenant fails to pay such tax, Landlord
shall be entitled to all remedies hereunder in the same manner and to the same
extent as in the case of any other default hereunder. This provision is in
addition to any monies owned by Tenant under the provisions of Paragraph 3(b) of
this lease.
4. DELIVERY OF POSSESSION TO TENANT BY LANDLORD:
(a) Tenant agrees to accept the premises in its "as is condition" and
Landlord shall not be obligated to perform any work or spend any monies in
connection with preparing the same for Tenant's use in occupancy except those
provided in paragraph 44(a) and 44(e).
(b) In the event this lease involves the construction of space for Tenant
by Landlord, the commencement date shall be the date upon which improvements
constituting Premises have been substantially completed in accordance with plans
and specifications approved by both parties. The taking of possession by Tenant
shall conclusively establish that said improvements have been completed in
accordance with approved plans and specifications therefore and that the
Premises are in good and satisfactory condition at the time possession is taken.
The Premises should be deemed substantially completed when only minor or
insubstantial details of construction, adjustment, or decoration remain to be
performed, the noncompletion of which does not materially interfere with Tenants
use of Premises.
(c) If Landlord is unable to give Tenant possession of the Premises on the
commencement date for any reason whatsoever, Landlord shall be subject to no
liability therefore and the validity of the lease shall not be impaired thereby,
nor shall the same be construed in anyway to extend the term of this lease, but
the rent payable hereunder shall be abated (provided Tenant is not responsible
directly for the inability to obtain possession) until Landlord has given notice
to Tenant that the Premises are ready for the Tenants occupancy. If Landlord
gives Tenant permission to enter into possession of or upon the Premises prior
to the commencement date, such possession or occupancy shall be deemed to be
upon all the terms, covenants and conditions of this lease.
5. REPAIRS BY TENANT AND REMOVAL OF IMPROVEMENTS AND ALTERATIONS UPON
TERMINATION:
(a) In furtherance of the provisions of Paragraph 4 hereof, Tenant's
acceptance of the Premises in their condition at the commencement of the Term
shall be deemed to be Tenant's acknowledgment that they are suited for the use
intended by Tenant. Tenant will, at Tenant's expense take good care of Premises
and the fixtures and appurtenances therein, and will suffer no active or
permissive waste or injury thereof, and Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, but
under the direction of
2

structural or not structural, interior or exterior, or by persons permitted on
Premises by Tenant, or Tenant moving in or out of Premises.
(b) Tenant will not, without Landlord's written consent, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld, make any alterations, additions or improvements in or
about the Premises. Tenant will not do anything to or on the Premises which
will increase the rate of fire or other insurance on the Building or the
Premises subjecting such insurance to being void or suspended. In the event
that Tenant's action, omissions or occupancy of Premises shall cause the rate of
fire or other insurance on the Building and/or Premises to be increased, Tenant
shall pay, as additional rent, the amount of any such increase promptly upon
demand by Landlord. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall
not use or permit the Premises to be used in violation of the prohibitions of
the Rules and Regulations attached hereto and made a part hereof.
(c) All alterations, additions or improvements (including, but not
limited to, carpets, draperies and drapery hardware) made or installed by
Tenant in or to the Premises shall become the property of Landlord at the
expiration of this lease. Landlord reserves the right to require Tenant to
remove any improvements or additions made to the Premises by Tenant, at Tenants
cost, and Tenant further agrees to do so prior to the expiration of the Term.
(d) No later than the last day of the Term, Tenant will remove all
Tenant's personal property and repair all injury done by or in connection with
installation or removal of said property and surrender the Premises (together
with all keys to the Premises) in as good a condition as they were at he
beginning of the Term, reasonable wear and damage by fire, the elements or
casualty excepted. All property of Tenant remaining on the Premises after
expiration of the Term shall be deemed conclusively abandoned and may be
removed by Landlord, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of
removing the same, subject, however, to Landlord's right to require Tenant to
remove any improvements or additions made to Premises by Tenant pursuant to
preceding Subparagraph (b). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
it is specially understood that damages to floor covering caused by lack of
protective mats under chairs or lack of casters on chairs shall not be
considered "reasonable wear" under the terms of this Subparagraph (d).
(e) In doing work of any nature in, to or about the Premises, Tenant will
use only contractors or workmen approved by Landlord, which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a waiver or lien
release prior to commencement of any Tenant initiated changes. Tenant shall
within 30 days pay and discharge any and all licenses, impost, liens or other
charges arising out of or in connection with the performances or any act
required of or permitted Tenant hereunder and shall keep Premises free and
clear from any and all such liens and charges. In furtherance thereof, Tenant
agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all
losses, costs, damages or liabilities resulting from or attributable to any
liens or claims of lien promptly upon notice from Landlord, or upon any prior
notice of such lien or claim of lien.
(f) In the performance of any acts required of or permitted Tenant under
Paragraph 9 or any other provisions of this lease, Tenant shall obey and comply
with all requirements, rules, regulations and ordinances of all legally
constituted authorities existing at any time during the continuance of such
performance which in any way affects the Premises or the use of the Premises by
Tenant. Such compliance shall include compliance by Tenant with requirements of
the Occupational Safety and Health Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act
and all amendments thereto, as the same applies to Tenant's use of the
Premises. Should such act require any alteration or addition to the Premises,
Tenant shall perform same at its expense, provided that Landlord first approves
in writing all plans and specifications prepared in connection with such
performance.
6. MAINTAINING FOOD OR DRINK MACHINES ON PREMISES: Tenant shall
maintain no food or drink coin operating or vending machines within the

shall not preclude Landlord from charges Tenant for utility costs therefor
pursuant to Paragraph 10(b) hereof.
7. TENANT RISK: Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any theft of
or damage to any personal property brought into the Building or the Premises by
Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors, licensees or invitees. The word

Regulations" of Landlord, as made a part hereof. Moreover, Tenant agrees to

profession in which Tenant is engaged, and in case of breach of this covenant,
Tenant agrees that Landlord may terminate either this lease or Tenant's right
to possession hereunder by giving Tenant sixty (60) days notice to vacate.
If any governmental license or permit, including without limitation a
certificate of occupancy, or any amendment thereto shall be required for the
proper and lawful conduct of Tenants business in the Premises, or any part
thereof, and a failure to secure such license or permit would in any way affect
Landlord, Tenant, at its expense, shall duly procure and maintain such license
or permit and shall submit the same to Landlord for inspection.

may consider the extent of the load of such equipment upon the Building's
electrical distribution systems the weight or size of the equipment, the noise
which electrical equipment generates, and other relevant factors. No electrical
equipment may be installed which, in Landlord's opinion will overload the
wiring installations of the Building or interfere with the reasonable use of
such wiring, or of the Building itself, by other tenants. Should Landlord grant

circuits and/or equipment required therefor shall be provided by Landlord and
the cost of installation (and any additional cost of electrical usage) shall be

the appropriate local utility company or a local independent professional
engineer shall prevail.

services caused by strike, accident or breakdown, or any other cause beyond

Tenant's obligations hereunder and fails to cure such default within thirty (30)
days after written notice from Landlord, or if Tenant files for or is
adjudicated a bankrupt, or if a receiver of trustee is appointed for Tenant's
property including Tenant's interest in Premises, and such receiver or tustee is
not removed within sixty (60) days, or if, whether voluntarily or involuntarily,
Tenant takes advantage of any debtor relief proceedings under any present or
future law, whereby the rent or any part thereof is, or is proposed to be
reduced or payment thereof deferred, or if Tenant makes an assignment for
benefit of creditors, or if the Premises or Tenant's effects or interest therein
should be levied upon or attached under process against Tenant, not satisfied or

evidence of all the rental value of the premises. Tenant shall be liable to
Landlord for the deficiency, if any, between all rent received hereunder and
the total rental applicable to the Term hereof obtained by Landlord on
reletting, or for Landlord's expenses in restoring Premises and all costs
incident to such reletting.

ending thereof by the lapse of time other otherwise shall affect Landlord's
right to collect rent and all other charges due.

consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, assign this
lease or any interest hereunder, or sublet Premises or any part hereof, or
permit the use of the Premises by any party other than Tenant.
In the event that at any time or from time to time during the term of
this lease, Tenant desires to sublet all or part of the demised Premised,
Tenant shall notify the Landlord in writing (hereinafter referred to as "Sublet
Notice") of the terms of the proposed subletting and the area so
5

not to exceed the annual base rent plus adjustment of rent and additional rent
which Tenant is required to pay to Landlord under this lease for the same space.

after receipt of the sublet notice.
Consent to one assignment of sublease shall not destroy or waive this
provision, and all later assignments and sublease shall likewise be made only

hours to show Premises to mortagees, or prospective purchasers or tenants, or
to inspect Premises, or to make repairs required of Landlord under the terms
hereof or repairs or improvements to adjoining space within the Building. Such
entry by Landlord shall not entitle Tenant to any rent abatement.
19. TRANSFER OF TENANTS: In the event the Premises rented to Tenant are
less than 2000 square feet in area, Landlord reserves the right, at its option
and upon giving thirty (30) days written notice in advance to Tenant, to
transfer and remove Tenant from the Premises to any other available rooms and
offices of substantially equal size and area and equivalent rental in Building
of which the Premises are a part. Landlord shall bear the expense of said
removal as well as the expense of any renovations or alterations necessary to
make the new space substantially conform in layout and appointment with the
original Premises.

thereafter, and it shall be deemed without further agreement that the purchaser
or the lessee, as the case may be, has assumed and agreed to carry out any and
all covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder during the period such
party has possession of the Building. Should the land and the entire Building
be severed as to ownership by sale and/or lease, then the owner of the entire
Building or lessee of the entire Building that has the right to lease the space
in Building to tenants shall be deemed the "Landlord". Tenant shall be bound to

hereof and shall execute any attornment agreement not in conflict herewith at

provided Tenant has fully performed hereunder. Landlord shall have the right to
apply any part of said deposit to cure any default of Tenant and if Landlord
does so, Tenant shall upon demand deposit with Landlord the amount so applied
so that Landlord shall have the full deposit on hand at all times during the
term of this lease. In the event of a sale of the Building, or a lease of the
Building, subject to this lease, Landlord shall have the right to transfer the
security deposit to the vendee or lessee and Landlord shall thereupon be
released from all liability for the return of such security deposit and Tenant

extension rights it now has under its
present lease, nor shall it preclude
Landlord from entering into a lease with a
subsequent new tenant for the same space,
but the first right of refusal does preclude
Landlord from offering any extension or
renewal options to such new tenant beyond

The base rental rates specified above for the Right of First Refusal Spaces
shall apply only to the first year of the term. For each subsequent year of
term, the base rental rates shall increase by three percent (3%) annually
for each space respectively.
If Tenant elects to exercise its Right of First Refusal on any of these
