3.4 Delay in Commencement Date. In the event Landlord shall be unable, for any reason, to deliver possession of the Leased Premises to Tenant on the Scheduled Date, Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage occasioned thereby, nor shall such inability affect the validity of this Lease or the obligations of Tenant. In such event, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay Annual Basic Rent or Additional Rent until the Commencement Date.

(a) Within a period of one hundred twenty (120) days after the casualty, and provided there is not then in existence of an Event of Default, commence repair, reconstruction and restoration of the Leased Premises and prosecute the same diligently to completion, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect.

(b) In the event of a partial or total destruction of either the Leased Premises, the Building, or the Property during the last two (2) years of the Lease Term, Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon giving written notice to Tenant within sixty (60) days after such destruction. For purposes of this Article 10, “partial destruction” shall be deemed destruction to an extent of at least thirty-three and one-third percent (33.33%) of the then full replacement cost of the Leased Premises, the Building, or the Property as of the date of destruction.

(c) In the event that Superior Mortgages shall require that insurance proceeds be applied against the principal balance due on the Superior Mortgage (defined below), then Landlord may, at Landlord’s option and upon sixty (60) days written notice to Tenant, elect to terminate this Lease.

10.2 Uninsured Damage. In the event the Leased Premises, the Building or the Property shall be damaged as a result of any casualty not covered by Landlord’s insurance, to any extent whatsoever, Landlord may, subject to Force Majeure, within one hundred twenty (120) days following the date of the casualty, commence repair, reconstruction or restoration of the Leased Premises, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or within ninety (90) days following the casualty elect not to so repair, reconstruct or restore the Leased Premises, the Building or the Property, as the case may be, in which event this Lease shall cease and terminate. In either event, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of Landlord’s intention within such ninety (90) day period.

10.3 Reconstruction. In the event of any reconstruction of the Leased Premises, the Building or the Property pursuant to this Article 10, such reconstruction shall be in conformity with all city, county, state and federal ordinances, rules and regulations then in existence, as the same may be interpreted and enforced. Notwithstanding that all reconstruction work shall be performed by Landlord’s contractor unless Landlord shall otherwise agree in writing, Landlord’s obligation to reconstruct the Leased Premises shall be only to the comparable condition of the Leased Premises immediately prior to the Commencement Date. Landlord’s obligation to repair and reconstruct the Leased Premises shall be limited to the amount of net proceeds of insurance received by Landlord, subject to reduction pursuant to Article 10.1(c) above. Any extra expenses incurred by Landlord in the reconstruction of the Leased Premises, the Building or any other portion of the Property as a result of the violation by Tenant of the terms and conditions set forth in Article 34 below shall be borne by Tenant. Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for the repair and restoration of all items of the Tenant Improvements or Tenant’s improvements and/or alterations installed pursuant to Article 7.2 and the replacement of Tenant’s stock in trade, trade fixtures, furniture furnishings and equipment. Tenant shall commence the installation of fixtures, equipment and merchandise promptly upon delivery to Tenant of possession of the Leased Premises and shall diligently prosecute such installation to completion.

10.4 Termination. Upon any termination of this Lease under any of the provisions of this Article 10, Landlord and Tenant each shall be released without further obligations to the other coincident with the surrender of possession of the Leased Premises to Landlord, except for items which have previously accrued and remain unpaid. In the event of termination, all proceeds from Tenant’s property insurance coverage and covering the Tenant Improvements or Tenant’s improvements and/or alterations installed pursuant to Article 7.2, but excluding proceeds for trade fixtures, merchandise, signs and other removable personal property, shall be disbursed and paid to Landlord.

10.5 Abatement. In the event of repair, reconstruction and restoration of the Leased Premises, the Minimum Annual Rental and Additional Rent shall be abated proportionately with the degree to which Tenant’s use of the Leased Premises is impaired commencing from the date of destruction and continuing during the period of such repair, reconstruction or restoration. Tenant shall continue the operation of Tenant’s business at the Leased Premises during any such period to the extent reasonably practicable from the standpoint of prudent business management. Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Leased Premises, or the building of which the Leased Premises are a part, Tenant’s personal property or for any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such damage, repair, reconstruction or restoration.

10.6 Waiver. Tenant hereby waives any statutory and common law rights of termination which may arise by reason of any partial or total destruction of the Leased Premises which Landlord is obligated to restore or may restore under any of the provisions of this Lease, including the provisions of A.R.S. 33-343 except as otherwise provided herein.

10.7 Termination. If Landlord cannot complete repairs within one hundred eighty (180) days after the casualty or Landlord elects to notify Tenant in writing within sixty (60) days of said casualty of Landlord’s intent to not complete said repairs then Tenant may terminate this lease by providing Landlord thirty (30) days notice after receipt of Landlords notice to not proceed with said repairs or after Landlord fails to complete said repairs within the stated timeframe, whichever applies.

11. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION

Landlord and Tenant hereby waives their rights and the subrogation rights of their insurer against the other and any other tenants of space in the Building or the Property, as well as their respective members, officers, employees, agents, authorized representatives and invitees, with respect to any claims including, but not limited to, claims for injury to any persons, and/or damage to the Leased Premises and/or any fixtures, equipment, personal property, furniture, improvements and/or alterations in or to the Leased Premises, which are caused by or result from (a) risks or damages required to be insured against under this Lease, or (b) risks and damages which are insured against by insurance policies maintained by Tenant or Landlord (as applicable) from time to time. Each shall obtain for the other from its insurers under each policy required by this Lease a waiver of all rights of subrogation which such insurers of Each might otherwise have against the other party.

12. LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO PERFORM TENANT OBLIGATIONS

All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the terms of this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any abatement of Annual Basic Rent or Additional Rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money, other than Annual Basic Rent, required to be paid by it hereunder, or shall fail to perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder, and such failure shall continue for five (5) days after notice thereof by Landlord (or such shorter period of time as may be reasonable following oral notice to Tenant’s personnel in the Leased Premises), Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to do so) without waiving or releasing Tenant from any of Tenant’s obligations, make any such payment or perform any such other act on behalf of Tenant. All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary incidental costs, together with interest thereon at the greater of (a) fifteen percent (15%) per annum or (b) the

rate of interest per annum publicly announced, quoted or published, from time to time, by Bank of America, at its Phoenix, Arizona office as its “reference rate” plus four (4) percentage points, from the date of such payment by Landlord until reimbursement in full by Tenant (the “Default Rate”), shall be payable to Landlord as Additional Rent with the next monthly installment of Annual Basic Rent; provided, however, in no event shall the Default Rate exceed the maximum rate (if any) permitted by applicable law.

13. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

13.1 Event of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events will constitute an “Event of Default” on the part of Tenant:

(a) Failure to pay any installment of Annual Basic Rent, any Additional Rent or any other sum required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease, and such failure shall continue for five (5) days;

(b) Failure to perform any of the other covenants or conditions which Tenant is required to observe and perform (except failure in the payment of Annual Basic Rent, Additional Rent or any other monetary obligation contained in this Lease) and such failure shall continue for fifteen (15) days (or such shorter period of time as may be specified by Landlord in the event of an emergency) after written notice thereof by Landlord to Tenant, provided that if such default is other than the payment of money and cannot be cured within such fifteen (15) day period, then an Event of Default shall not have occurred if Tenant, within such fifteen (15) day period, commences to cure such failure and diligently in good faith prosecutes the same to completion and furnishes evidence thereof to Landlord within thirty (30) days thereafter;

(c) If any warranty, representation or statement made by Tenant to Landlord in connection with this Lease is or was materially false or misleading when made -or furnished;

(d) Intentionally Omitted.

(e) Intentionally Omitted.

(f) Intentionally Omitted.

(g) The levy of a writ of attachment or execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s assets or its interest in this Lease, such attachment, execution or other seizure remaining undismissed or discharged for a period of thirty (30) days after the levy thereof;

(h) The filing of any petition by or against Tenant or any Guarantor to declare Tenant or any Guarantor a bankrupt or to delay, reduce or modify Tenant’s or any Guarantor’s debts or obligations, which petition is not discharged within forty five (45) days after the date of filing;

(i) The filing of any petition or other action taken to reorganize or modify Tenant’s or any Guarantor’s capital structure, which petition is not discharged within forty five (45) days after the date of filing;

(j) If Tenant or any Guarantor shall be declared insolvent according to law;

(k) A general assignment by Tenant or any Guarantor for the benefit of creditors;

(l) The appointment of a receiver or trustee for Tenant or any Guarantor or all or any of their respective property, which appointment is not discharged within forty five (45) days after the date of filing;

13.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Lease by Tenant, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other rights and remedies available to a landlord at law, in equity or by statute, Landlord may exercise one or more of the following remedies, all of which shall be construed and held to be cumulative and non-exclusive: (a) Terminate this Lease and re-enter and take possession of the Leased Premises, in which event, Landlord is authorized to make such repairs, redecorating, refurbishments or improvements to the Leased Premises as may be necessary in the reasonable opinion of Landlord acting in good faith for the purposes of reletting the Leased Premises and the costs and expenses incurred in respect of such repairs, redecorating and refurbishments and the expenses of such reletting (including brokerage commissions) shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within five (5) days after receipt of Landlord’s statement; or (b) Without terminating this Lease, re-enter and take possession of the Leased Premises; or (c) Without such re-entry, recover possession of the Leased Premises in the manner prescribed by any statute relating to summary process, and any demand for Annual Basic Rent, re-entry for condition broken, and any and all notices to quit, or other formalities of any nature to which Tenant may be entitled, are hereby specifically waived to the extent permitted by law; or (d) Without terminating this Lease, Landlord may relet the Leased Premises as Landlord may see fit without thereby avoiding or terminating this Lease, and for the purposes of such reletting, Landlord is authorized to make such repairs, redecorating, refurbishments or improvements to the Leased Premises as may be necessary in the reasonable opinion of Landlord acting in good faith for the purpose of such reletting, and if a sufficient sum is not realized from such reletting (after payment of all costs and expenses of such repairs, redecorating and refurbishments and expenses of such reletting (including brokerage commissions) and the collection of rent accruing therefrom) each month to equal the Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency each month within five (5) days after receipt of Landlord’s statement; or (e) Landlord may declare immediately due and payable all the remaining installments of Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent, and such amount; less the amount Tenant proves, if any, could reasonably expect to be recovered by Landlord through the releasing of the Leased Premises for the remainder of the Lease Term, shall be paid by Tenant within five (5) days after receipt of Landlord’s statement. Landlord shall not by re-entry or any other act, be deemed to have terminated this Lease, or the liability of Tenant for the total Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent reserved hereunder or for any installment thereof then due or thereafter accruing, or for damages, unless Landlord notifies Tenant in writing that Landlord has so elected to terminate this Lease. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the acceptance of Annual Basic Rent or Additional Rent, or the failure to re-enter by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of Landlord’s right to thereafter terminate this Lease and exercise any other rights and remedies available to it, and Landlord may re-enter and take possession of the Leased Premises as if no Annual Basic Rent or Additional Rent had been accepted after the occurrence of an Event of Default. Upon an Event of Default, Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord, including court costs and attorneys’ fees, in retaking or otherwise obtaining possession of the Leased Premises, removing and storing all equipment, fixtures and personal property on the Leased Premises and otherwise enforcing any of Landlord’s rights, remedies or recourses arising as a result of an Event of Default.

13.3 Additional Remedies. All of the remedies given to Landlord in this Lease in the event Tenant commits an Event of Default are in addition to all other rights or remedies available to a landlord at law, in equity or by statute, including, without limitation, the right to seize and sell all goods, equipment and personal property of Tenant located in the Leased Premises and apply the proceeds thereof to all due and unpaid Annual Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other amounts owing under the Lease. All rights, options and remedies available to Landlord shall be construed and held to be cumulative, and no one of them shall be exclusive of the other. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all rights, privileges and contingencies which may be exercised by Tenant under the Lease, including, without limitation, options to renew, extend and expand, as well as relocation rights, contraction rights and any other rights which may be exercised by Tenant during the Lease Term, shall be void and of no further force and effect.

13.4 Interest on Past Due Amounts. In addition to the late charge described in Article 14 below, if any installment of Annual Basic Rent or Additional Rent is not paid promptly when due,

it shall bear interest at the Default Rate; provided, however, this provision shall not relieve Tenant from any default in the making of any payment at the time and in the manner required by this Lease; and provided, further, in no event shall the Default Rate exceed the maximum rate (if any) permitted by applicable law.

13.5 Landlord Default. In the event Landlord should neglect or fail to perform or observe any of the covenants, provisions or conditions contained in this Lease on its part to be performed or observed, and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice of default (or if more than thirty (30) days shall be required because of the nature of the default, if Landlord shall fail to commence the curing of such default within such thirty (30) day period and proceed diligently thereafter) or for any commercially unreasonable time if an emergency situation occurs, then Landlord shall be responsible to Tenant for any actual damages sustained by Tenant as a result of Landlord’s breach, but not special or consequential damages. Should Tenant give written notice to Landlord to correct any default, Tenant shall give similar notice to the holder of any mortgages or deeds of trust against the Building or the lessor of any ground lease, and prior to any cancellation of this Lease, the holder of such mortgage or deed of trust and/or the lessor under such ground lease shall be given a reasonable period of time to correct or remedy such default. If and when such holder of such mortgage or deed of trust and/or the lessor under any such ground lease has made performance on behalf of Landlord, the default of Landlord shall be deemed cured. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Lease, any claim which Tenant may have against Landlord for failure to perform or observe any of the covenants, provisions or conditions contained in this Lease shall be deemed waived unless such claim is asserted by written notice thereof to Landlord within ten (10) days of commencement of the alleged default or occurrence of the cause of action and unless suit be brought thereon within six (6) months subsequent to the occurrence of such cause of action.

14. LATE PAYMENTS

Tenant hereby acknowledges that the late payment by Tenant to Landlord of any monthly installment of Annual Basic Rent, any Additional Rent or any other sums due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult and impracticable to ascertain. Such costs include but are not limited to processing, administrative and accounting costs. Accordingly, if any monthly installment of Annual Basic Rent, any Additional Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord within five (5) days after the date when due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such overdue amount or Two Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($200.00), whichever is greater. Tenant acknowledges that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of late payments by Tenant. Neither assessment nor acceptance of a late charge by Landlord shall constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord. Nothing contained in this Article 14 shall be deemed to condone, authorize, sanction or grant to Tenant an option for the late payment of Annual Basic Rent, Additional Rent or any other sum due hereunder.

15. ABANDONMENT AND SURRENDER

15.1 Surrender. No act or thing done by Landlord or by any agent or employee of Landlord during the Lease Term shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Leased Premises unless such acceptance is expressed in writing and duly executed by Landlord. Unless Landlord so agrees in writing, the delivery of the key to the Leased Premises to any employee or agent of Landlord shall not operate as a termination of this Lease or as a surrender of the Leased Premises.

15.2 Surrender. Tenant shall, upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, peaceably surrender the Leased Premises, including any Tenant Improvements and Tenant’s improvements and/or alterations installed pursuant to Article 7.1, in a janitorial clean condition and otherwise in as good condition as when Tenant took possession, except for (i) reasonable wear and tear subsequent to the last repair, replacement, restoration, alteration or renewal; (ii) loss by fire or other casually, and (iii) loss by condemnation. If Tenant shall abandon, vacate or surrender the

Leased Premises, or be dispossessed by process of law or otherwise, any personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and left in the Leased Premises shall be deemed abandoned and, at Landlord’s option, title shall pass to Landlord under this Lease as by a xxxx of sale. Landlord may, however, if it so elects, remove all or any part of such personal property from the Leased Premises and the costs incurred by Landlord in connection with such removal, including storage costs and the cost of repairing any damage to the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property caused by such removal shall be paid by Tenant within five (5) days after receipt of Landlord’s statement. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender to Landlord all keys to the Leased Premises and shall inform Landlord of the combination of any vaults, locks and safes left on the Leased Premises. The obligations of Tenant under this Article 15.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against any loss or liability resulting from delay by Tenant in so surrendering the Premises, including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding Tenant founded on such delay. Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to vacating the Leased Premises for the express purpose of arranging a meeting with Landlord for a joint inspection of the Leased Premises. In the event of Tenant’s failure to give such notice or to participate in such joint inspection, Landlord’s inspection at or after Tenant’s vacation of the Leased Premises shall be conclusively deemed correct, unless erroneous, for purposes of determining Tenant’s liability for repairs and restoration hereunder.

16. INDEMNIFICATION AND EXCULPATION

16.1 Indemnification. Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against, and shall be responsible for, all claims, damages, losses, costs, liens, encumbrances, liabilities and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’, accountants’ and investigators’ fees and court costs (collectively, the “Claims”), however caused, arising in whole or in part from Tenant’s use of all or any part of the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property or the conduct of Tenant’s business or from any activity, work or thing done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or by any invitee, servant, agent, employee or subtenant of Tenant in the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property, and shall further indemnify, protect, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against, and shall be responsible for, all Claims arising in whole or in part from any breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant’s part to be performed under the terms of this Lease or arising in whole or in part from any act, neglect, fault or omission by Tenant or by any invitee, servant, agent, employee or subtenant of Tenant anywhere in the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property. In case any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord to which this indemnification shall be applicable, Tenant shall pay all Claims resulting therefrom and shall defend such action or proceeding, if Landlord shall so request, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. The obligations of Tenant under this Article 16.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

16.2 Exculpation. Tenant, as a material part of the consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property, injury and death to persons and all claims of any other nature resulting from Tenant’s use of all or any part of the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property, and Tenant hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against Landlord. Neither Landlord nor its agents or employees shall be liable for any damaged property of Tenant entrusted to any employee or agent of Landlord or for loss of or damage to any property of Tenant by theft or otherwise. Landlord shall not be liable for any injury or damage to persons or property resulting from any cause, including, but not limited to, fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas, electricity, sewage, odor, noise, water or rain which may leak from any part of the Building or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing works therein, or from the roof of any structure on the Property, or from any streets or subsurfaces on or adjacent to the Building or the Property, or from any other place or resulting from dampness or any other causes whatsoever, unless caused solely by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. Neither Landlord nor its employees or agents shall be liable for any defects in the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property, nor shall Landlord be liable for the negligence or misconduct, including, but not limited to, criminal acts, by maintenance or other personnel or contractors serving the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property, other tenants or third parties, unless Landlord is grossly negligent or guilty of willful misconduct. All property of Tenant kept or stored on the Property shall be so kept or stored at the

risk of Tenant only, and Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against, and shall be responsible for, any Claims arising out of damage to the same, including subrogation claims by Tenant’s insurance carriers, unless such damage shall be caused by the willful act or gross neglect of Landlord and through no fault of Tenant. None of the events or conditions set forth in this Article 16 shall be deemed a constructive or actual eviction or result in a termination of this Lease, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any abatement or reduction of Annual Basic Rent or Additional Rent by reason thereof. Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord with respect to any defects, fires or accidents which Tenant observes in the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property.

17. ENTRY BY LANDLORD

Landlord reserves and shall at any and all reasonable times upon reasonable notice, or reasonable attempt to notify in case of an emergency, have the right to enter the Leased Premises, to inspect the same, to supply janitorial service and other services to be provided by Landlord to Tenant hereunder, to submit the Leased Premises to prospective purchasers or tenants, to post notices of non-responsibility, and to alter, improve or repair the Leased Premises and any portion of the Building of which the Leased Premises are a part, without abatement of Annual Basic Rent or Additional Rent, and may for that purpose erect scaffolding and other necessary structures where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed, always providing that access into the Leased Premises shall not be blocked thereby, and further providing that the business of Tenant shall not be interfered with unreasonably. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Leased Premises or any loss occasioned thereby. For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all the doors in, upon or about the Leased Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults and safes, and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open such doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Leased Premises, and any entry to the Leased Premises obtained by Landlord by any such means or otherwise shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Leased Premises or an eviction of Tenant from all or any portion of the Leased Premises. Nothing in this Article 17 shall be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, alterations or maintenance except as otherwise expressly required elsewhere in this Lease.

18. SUBSTITUTE PREMISES

19. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

19.1 Consent of Landlord Required. Tenant shall not transfer or assign this Lease or any right or interest hereunder, or sublet the Leased Premises or any part thereof, without first obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent Landlord may not withhold unreasonably. No transfer or assignment (whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise) or subletting shall be valid or effective without such prior written consent. Should Tenant attempt to make or allow to be made any such transfer, assignment or subletting, except as aforesaid, or should any of Tenant’s rights under this Lease be sold or otherwise transferred by or under court order or legal process or otherwise, then, and in any of the foregoing events Landlord may, at its option, treat such act as an Event of Default by Tenant. Should Landlord consent to a transfer, assignment or subletting, such consent shall not constitute a waiver of any of the restrictions or prohibitions of this Article 19, and such restrictions or prohibitions shall apply to each successive transfer, assignment or subletting hereunder, if any.

19.2 Intentionally Omitted.

19.3 Delivery of Information. If Tenant wishes at any time to assign this Lease or sublet the Leased Premises or any portion thereof, it shall first notify Landlord of its desire to do so and shall submit in writing to Landlord (a) the name of the proposed subtenant or assignee, (b) the nature of the proposed subtenant’s or assignee’s business to be carried on in the Leased Premises; (c) the terms and the provisions of the proposed sublease or assignment; and (d) such financial information

as Landlord may reasonably request concerning the proposed subtenant or assignee. Tenant’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Article 19.3 shall entitle Landlord to withhold its consent to the proposed assignment or subletting.

19.4 Adjustment to Rental. In the event Tenant assigns its interest in this Lease or Sublets the Leased Premises, Landlord and Tenant shall divide any rent received by Tenant in excess of the Annual Basic Rent set forth in Article 1.12 above, as adjusted in accordance with the following ratio: Tenant - 70%, Landlord - 30%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Annual Basic Rent due from Tenant after any such assignment or subletting be less than the Annual Basic Rent specified in Article 1.12 above, as adjusted.

19.6 No Release from Liability. Landlord may collect Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent from the assignee, subtenant, occupant or other transferee, and apply the amount so collected, first to the monthly installments of Annual Basic Rent, then to any Additional Rent and other sums due and payable to Landlord, and the balance, if any, to Landlord, but no such assignment, subletting, occupancy, transfer or collection shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s, rights under this Article 19, or the acceptance of the proposed assignee, subtenant, occupant or transferee. Notwithstanding any assignment, sublease or other transfer (with or without the consent of Landlord), Tenant shall remain primarily liable under this Lease and shall not be released from performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease.

19.7 Landlord’s Expenses. If Landlord consents to an assignment, sublease or other transfer by Tenant of all or any portion of Tenant’s interest under this Lease, Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid to Landlord, a transfer fee in an amount not less than Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($500.00) to reimburse Landlord for administrative expenses and for legal, accounting and other out of pocket expenses actually incurred by Landlord.

19.8 Assumption Agreement. If Landlord consents to an assignment, sublease or other transfer by Tenant of all or any portion of Tenant’s interest under this Lease, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord, and cause the transferee to execute and deliver to Landlord, an instrument in the form and substance acceptable to Landlord in which (a) the transferee adopts this Lease and assumes and agrees to perform, jointly and severally with Tenant, all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder, (b) Tenant acknowledges that it remains primarily liable for the payment of Annual Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other obligations under this Lease, (e) Tenant subordinates to Landlord’s statutory lien, contract lien and security interest, any liens, security interests or other rights which Tenant may claim with respect to any property of transferee and (d) the transferee agrees to use and occupy the Leased Premises solely for the purpose specified in Article 20 and otherwise in strict accordance with this Lease.

20. USE OF LEASED PREMISES AND RUBBISH REMOVAL

20.1 Use. The Leased Premises are leased to Tenant solely for the Permitted Use set forth in Article 1.9 above and for no other purpose whatsoever. Tenant shall not use or occupy or permit the Leased Premises to be used or occupied, nor shall Tenant do or permit anything to be done in or about the Leased Premises nor bring or keep anything therein which will in any way increase the existing rate of or affect any casualty or other insurance on the Building or the Property, or any of their respective contents, or make void or voidable or cause a cancellation of any insurance policy covering the Building or the Property, or any part thereof or any of their respective contents. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property which will in any way obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Building or the Property or injure or annoy them. Tenant shall not use or allow the Leased Premises to be used for any improper, immoral, unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property. In addition, Tenant shall not commit or suffer to be committed any waste in or upon the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property. Tenant shall not use the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property or permit anything to be done in or about the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property which will in any way conflict with any matters of record, or any law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule or regulation now in force or which may hereafter be enacted

or promulgated, and shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly comply with all matters of record and all laws, statutes, ordinances and governmental rules, regulations and requirements now in force or which may hereafter be in force and with the requirements of any Board of Fire Underwriters or other similar body now or hereafter constituted, foreseen or unforeseen, ordinary as well as extraordinary, relating to or affecting the condition, use or occupancy of the Property, excluding structural changes not relating to or affected by Tenant’s improvements or acts. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission by Tenant in any action against Tenant, whether Landlord be a party thereto or not, that Tenant has violated any matters of record, or any law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule, regulation or requirement, shall be conclusive of that fact between Landlord and Tenant. In addition, Tenant shall not place a load upon any floor of the Leased Premises which exceeds the load per square foot which the floor was designed to carry, nor shall Tenant install business machines or other mechanical equipment in the Leased Premises which cause noise or vibration that may be transmitted to the structure of the Building.

20.2 Rubbish Removal. Tenant shall keep the Leased Premises clean, both inside and outside, subject, however, to Landlord’s obligation as set forth in Article 7.3 above. Tenant shall not burn any materials or rubbish of any description upon the Leased Premises. Tenant shall keep all accumulated rubbish in covered containers. In the event Tenant fails to keep the Leased Premises in the proper condition, Landlord may cause the same to be done for Tenant and Tenant shall pay the expenses incurred by Landlord on demand, together with interest at the Default Rate, as Additional Rent. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with all present and future laws, orders and regulations of all state, county, federal, municipal governments, departments, commissions and boards regarding the collection, sorting, separation, and recycling of waste products, garbage, refuse and trash. Tenant shall sort and separate such waste products, garbage, refuse and trash into such categories as provided by law. Each separately sorted category of waste products, garbage, refuse and trash shall be placed in separate receptacles reasonably approved by Landlord. Such separate receptacles may, at Landlord’s option, be removed from the Leased Premises in accordance with a collection schedule prescribed by law. Landlord reserves the right to refuse to collect or accept from Tenant any waste products, garbage, refuse or trash that is not separated and sorted as required by law, and to require Tenant to arrange for such collection at Tenant’s sole cost and expense using a contractor satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant shall pay all costs, expenses, fines, penalties or damages that may be imposed on Landlord or Tenant by reason of Tenant’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Article 20.2, and, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord and Landlord’s agents and employees harmless (including legal fees and expenses) from and against, and shall be responsible for, all actions, claims, liabilities and suits arising from such noncompliance, utilizing counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

21. SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT

21.1 Subordination. This Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder shall be, at the option of Landlord, subordinate to (a) all matters of record, (b) all ground leases, overriding leases and underlying leases (collectively referred to as the “leases”) of the Building or the Property now or hereafter existing, (c) all mortgages and deeds of trust (collectively referred to as the “mortgages”) which may now or hereafter encumber or affect the Building or the Property, and (d) all renewals, modifications, amendments, replacements and extensions of leases and mortgages and to spreaders and consolidations of the mortgages, whether or not leases or mortgages shall also cover other lands, buildings or leases. The provisions of this Article 21.1 shall be self-operative and no further instruments of subordination shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any instrument that Landlord, the lessor under any lease or the holder of any mortgage or any of their respective assigns or successors in interest may reasonably request to evidence such subordination. Any lease to which this Lease is subject and subordinate is called a “Superior Lease” and the lessor under a Superior Lease or its assigns or successors in interest is called a “Superior Lessor”. Any mortgage to which this Lease is subject and subordinate is called a “Superior Mortgage” and the holder of a Superior Mortgage is called a “Superior Mortgagee”. If Landlord, a Superior Lessor or a Superior Mortgagee requires that such instruments be executed by Tenant, Tenant’s failure to do so within ten (10) days after request therefor shall be deemed an Event of Default under this Lease. Tenant waives any right to terminate

this Lease because of any foreclosure proceedings. Tenant hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Landlord (and any successor Landlord) as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution coupled with an interest, to execute and deliver to any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee any documents required to be executed by Tenant for and on behalf of Tenant if Tenant shall have failed to do so within ten (10) days after request therefore.

21.2 Attornment. If any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee (or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale) succeeds to the rights of Landlord under this Lease, whether through possession or foreclosure action, or the delivery of a new lease or deed (a “Successor Landlord”), Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such Successor Landlord as Tenant’s landlord under this Lease and shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument that such Successor Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such attornment.

22. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE

Tenant shall, whenever requested by Landlord, within ten (10) days after written request by Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying: (a) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect); (b) the dates to which Annual Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any; (c) that there are not, to Tenant’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord hereunder or specifying such defaults if any are claimed; (d) that Tenant has paid Landlord the Security Deposit, (e) the Commencement Date and the scheduled expiration date of the Lease Term, (f) the rights (if any) of Tenant to extend or renew this Lease or to expand the Leased Premises and (g) the amount of Annual Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other charges currently payable under this Lease. In addition, such statement shall provide such other information and facts Landlord may reasonably require. Any such statement may be relied upon by any prospective or existing purchaser, ground lessee or mortgagee of all or any portion of the Property, as well as by any other assignee of Landlord’s interest in this Lease. Tenant’s failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon Tenant (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord; (ii) that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s performance hereunder; (iii) that Tenant has paid to Landlord the Security Deposit; (iv) that not more than one month’s installment of Annual Basic Rent or Additional Rent has been paid in advance; (v) that the Commencement Date and the scheduled expiration date of the Lease Term are as stated therein, (vi) that Tenant has no rights to extend or renew this Lease or to expand the Leased Premises, (vii) that the Annual Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other charges are as set forth therein and (viii) that the other information and facts set forth therein are true and correct.

23. SIGNS

Landlord shall retain absolute control over the exterior appearance of the Building and the exterior appearance of the Leased Premises as viewed from the public halls. Tenant shall not install, or permit to be installed, any drapes, shutters, signs, lettering, advertising, or any items that will in any way, in the sole opinion of Landlord, adversely alter the exterior appearance of the Building or the exterior appearance of the Leased Premises as viewed from the public halls or the exterior of the Building. In no event may Tenant utilize trucks, automobiles or other vehicles on the Property for signage purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall install, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, letters or numerals at or near the entryway to the Leased Premises provided Tenant obtains Landlord’s prior written consent as to size, color, design and location. All such letters or numerals shall be in accordance with the criteria established by Landlord for the Building. In addition, Landlord shall, at its cost, install Tenant’s name and suite number on the Building directory, if any; provided, however, any additions, deletions or other modifications to the Building directory shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense.

24. PARKING

24.1 Parking Facility. Landlord shall provide, operate and maintain parking accommodations (the “Parking Accommodations”), together with necessary access, having a

capacity adequate in Landlord’s opinion to accommodate the requirements of the Building and the Property. No storage of vehicles or parking for more than twenty-four (24) hours shall be allowed without Landlord’s prior written consent. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for damage, loss or theft of property or injury to persons in, upon or about the Parking Accommodations from any cause whatsoever unless caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents or employees Landlord shall have the right to establish, and from time to time change, alter and amend, and to enforce against all users of the Parking Accommodations, such reasonable requirements and restrictions as Landlord deems necessary and advisable for the proper operation and maintenance of the Parking Accommodations, including, without limitation, designation of particular areas for reserved, visitor and/or employee parking, as a part of the Rules and Regulations of the Building referenced in Article 31 hereof.

Tenant shall have the right to non-exclusive use of a minimum of 1.5 spaces per 1,000 square feet of rentable space, or the minimum required by governmental requirements, whichever is greater.

24.2 Parking Passes. Tenant is hereby allocated the number of unreserved parking passes designated in Article 1.15 hereof, entitling holders to park in unreserved parking spaces, located in the Parking Accommodations as designated by Landlord from time to time for use by Tenant, its employees and licensees, and for which Tenant shall pay the monthly charges set forth in Article 1.16 hereof.

25. LIENS

Tenant shall keep the Leased Premises free and clear of all mechanic’s and materialmen’s liens. If, because of any act or omission (or alleged act or omission) of Tenant, any mechanics’, materialmen’s or other lien, charge or order for the payment of money shall be filed or recorded against the Leased Premises, the Property or the Building, or against any other property of Landlord (whether or not such lien, charge or order is valid or enforceable as such), Tenant shall, at its own expense, cause the same to be canceled or discharged of record within thirty (30) days after Tenant shall have received written notice of the filing thereof, or Tenant may, within such thirty (30) day period, furnish to Landlord, a bond pursuant to A.R.S. 33-1004 (or any successor statute) and satisfactory to Landlord and all Superior Lessors and Superior Mortgagees against the lien, charge or order, in which case Tenant shall have the right to contest, in good faith, the validity or amount thereof.

26. HOLDING OVER

It is agreed that the date of termination of this Lease and the right of Landlord to recover immediate possession of the Leased Premises thereupon is an important and material matter affecting the parties hereto and the rights of third parties, all of which have been specifically considered by Landlord and Tenant and that Tenant shall have no right to continue to occupy the premises without the express written consent of the Landlord. In the event of any continued occupancy or holding over of the Leased Premises with the express written consent of Landlord beyond the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or of Tenants right to occupy the Leased Premises, whether in whole or in part, shall be deemed a monthly tenancy and Tenant shall pay one and one-half (1.5) times the Annual Basic Rent then in effect for the first thirty (30) days and two hundred percent (200%) thereafter plus any Additional Rent or other charges or payments contemplated in this Lease, and any other costs, expenses, damages, liabilities and attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord on account of Tenant’s holding over. The preceding provision of this paragraph shall not be construed as Landlord’s consent for Tenant to holdover and no holdover shall operate to extend the terms of the Lease.

27. ATTORNEYS’ FEES

Tenant shall pay to Landlord all amounts for costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in connection with any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease or incurred in order to enforce the terms or provisions of this Lease. Such amounts shall be payable within five (5) days after receipt by Tenant of Landlord’s statement. In addition, if any action shall be instituted by either of the parties hereto for the enforcement of any of their respective rights or

remedies in or under this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the losing party all costs incurred by the prevailing party in such action and any appeal therefrom, including reasonable attorneys’ fees to be fixed by the court. Further, should Landlord be made a party to any litigation between Tenant and any third party, then Tenant shall pay all costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by or imposed upon Landlord in connection with such litigation.

28. RESERVED RIGHTS OF LANDLORD

Landlord reserves the following rights, exercisable without liability to Tenant for damage or injury to property, persons or business and without effecting an eviction, constructive or actual, or disturbance of Tenant’s use or possession or giving rise to any claim:

(a) To name the Building and the Property and to change the name or street address of the Building or the Property;

(h) To relocate various facilities within the Building and on the Property if Landlord shall determine such relocation to be in the best interest of the development of the Building and the Property, provided, that such relocation shall not materially restrict access to the Leased Premises;

(i) To change the nature, extent, arrangement, use and location of the Building Common Areas, provided that such change does not materially restrict Tenant’s use of the Leased Premises, the Building and the Property;

(j) To make alterations or additions to and to build additional stories on the Building and to build additional buildings or improvements on the Property; and

(k) To install vending machines of all kinds in the Leased Premises and the Building, and to receive all of the revenue derived therefrom, provided, however, that no vending machines xxxxx be installed by Landlord in the Leased Premises unless Tenant so requests.

29. EMINENT DOMAIN

29.1 Taking. If the whole of the Building is lawfully and permanently taken by condemnation or any other manner for any public or quasi-public purpose, or by deed in lieu thereof, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of vesting of title in such condemning authority and the Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be pro rated to such date. If any part of the Building or Property is so taken, or if the whole of the Building is taken, but not permanently, then this Lease shall be unaffected thereby, except that (a) Landlord may terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant within ninety (90) days after the date of vesting of title in the condemning authority, and (b) if twenty percent (20%) or more of the Leased Premises shall be permanently taken and the remaining portion of the Leased Premises shall not be reasonably sufficient for Tenant to continue operation of its business, Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord within ninety (90) days after the date of vesting of title in such condemning authority. This Lease shall terminate on the date of taking. The Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be pro rated to the earlier of the termination of this Lease or such date as Tenant is required to vacate the Leased Premises by reason of the taking. If this Lease is not terminated as a result of a partial taking of the Leased Premises, the Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be equitably adjusted according to the rentable area of the Leased Premises and Building remaining.

29.2 Award. In the event of a taking of all or any part of the Building or the Property, all of the proceeds or the award, judgment, settlement or damages payable by the condemning authority shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of Landlord, and Tenant hereby assigns all of its right, title and interest in and to any such award, judgment, settlement or damages to Landlord. Tenant shall, however, have the right, to the extent that the same shall not reduce or prejudice amounts available to Landlord, to claim from the condemning authority, but not from Landlord, such compensation as may be recoverable by Tenant in its own right for relocation benefits, moving expenses, and damage to Tenant’s personal property and trade fixtures.

30. NOTICES

Any notice or communication given under the terms of this Lease shall be in writing and shall be delivered in person, sent by any public or private express delivery service or deposited with the United States Postal Service or a successor agency, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage pre-paid, addressed as set forth in the Basic Provisions, or at such other address as a party may from time to time designate by notice hereunder. Notice shall be effective upon delivery. The inability to deliver a notice because of a changed address of which no notice was given or a rejection or other refusal to accept any notice shall be deemed to be the receipt of the notice as of the date of such inability to deliver or rejection or refusal to accept. Any notice to be given by Landlord may be given by the legal counsel and/or the authorized agent of Landlord.

31. RULES AND REGULATIONS

Tenant shall abide by all rules and regulations (the “Rules and Regulations”) of the Building and the Property imposed by Landlord, as attached hereto as Exhibit “F” or as may hereafter be issued by Landlord. Such Rules and Regulations are imposed to enhance the cleanliness, appearance, maintenance, order and use of the Leased Premises, the Building and the Property, and the proper enjoyment of the Building and the Property by all tenants and their clients, customers and employees. The Rules and Regulations may be changed from time to time upon ten (10) days notice to Tenant. Breach of the Rules and Regulations, by Tenant shall constitute an Event of Default if such breach is not fully cured within ten (10) days after written notice to Tenant by Landlord. Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for nonperformance by any other tenant, occupant or invitee of the Building or the Property of any Rules or Regulations.

32. ACCORD AND SATISFACTION

No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the monthly installment of Annual Base Rent and Additional Rent (jointly called “Rent” in this Article 32), shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated Rent due and not yet paid, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction. Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or to pursue any other remedy in this Lease.

33. BANKRUPTCY OF TENANT

33.1 Chapter 7. If a petition is filed by, or an order for relief is entered against Tenant under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code and the trustee of Tenant elects to assume this Lease for the purpose of assigning it, the election or assignment, or both, may be made only if all of the terms and conditions of Articles 33.2 and 33.4 below are satisfied. If the trustee fails to elect to assume this Lease for the purpose of assigning it within sixty (60) days after appointment, this Lease will be deemed to have been rejected. To be effective, an election to assume this Lease must be in writing and addressed to Landlord and, in Landlord’s business judgment, all of the conditions hereinafter stated, which Landlord and Tenant acknowledge to be commercially reasonable, must have been satisfied. Landlord shall then immediately be entitled to possession of the Premises without further obligation to Tenant or the trustee, and this Lease will be terminated. Landlord’s right to be compensated for damages in the bankruptcy proceeding, however, shall survive.

33.2 Chapters 11 and 13. If Tenant files a petition for reorganization under Chapters 11 or 13 of the Bankruptcy Code or a proceeding that is filed by or against Tenant under any other chapter of the Bankruptcy Code is converted to a Chapter 11 or 13 proceeding and Tenant’s trustee or Tenant as a debtor-in-possession fails to assume this Lease within sixty (60) days from the date of the filing of the petition or the conversion, the trustee or the debtor-in-possession will be deemed to have rejected this Lease. To be effective, an election to assume this Lease must be in writing and addressed to Landlord and, in Landlord’s business judgment, all of the following conditions, which Landlord and Tenant acknowledge to be commercially reasonable, must have been satisfied:

(a) The trustee or the debtor-in-possession has cured or has provided to Landlord adequate assurance, as defined in this Article 33.2, that;

(1) The trustee will cure all monetary defaults under this Lease within ten (10) days from the date of the assumption; and

(2) The trustee will cure all non-monetary defaults under this Lease within thirty (30) days from the date of the assumption.

(b) The trustee or the debtor-in-possession has compensated Landlord, or has provided to Landlord adequate assurance, as defined in this Article 33.2, that within ten (10) days from the date of the assumption Landlord will be compensated for any pecuniary loss it incurred arising from the default of Tenant, the trustee, or the debtor-in-possession as recited in Landlord’s written statement of pecuniary loss sent to the trustee or the debtor-in-possession. For purposes of this Lease, pecuniary loss shall include all attorneys’ fees and court costs incurred by Landlord in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding filed by or against Tenant.

(c) The trustee or the debtor-in-possession has provided Landlord with adequate assurance of the future performance of each of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease; provided, however, that:

(1) The trustee or debtor-in-possession will also deposit with Landlord as security for the timely payment of Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent, an amount equal to three months Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent accruing under this Lease.

(2) If not otherwise required by the terms of this Lease, the trustee or the debtor-in-possession will also pay in advance, on each day that the Annual Basic Rent is payable, one twelfth of Tenant’s estimated annual obligations under the Lease for the Additional Rent.

(3) From and after the date of the assumption of this Lease, the trustee or the debtor-in-possession will pay the Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent as provided in Article 1.12 above.

(4) The obligations imposed upon the trustee or the debtor-in-possession will continue for Tenant after the completion of bankruptcy proceedings.

(d) Landlord has determined that the assumption of the Lease will not:

(1) Breach any provisions in any other lease, mortgage, financing agreement, or other agreement by which Landlord is bound relating to the Property; or

(2) Disrupt, in Landlord’s judgment, the tenant mix of the Building or any other attempt by Landlord to provide a specific variety of Tenants in the Building that, in Landlord’s judgment, would be most beneficial to all of the tenants of the Building and would enhance the image, reputation, and profitability of the Building.

(e) For purposes of this Article 33.2 “adequate assurance” means that:

(1) Landlord will determine that the trustee or the debtor-in-possession has, and will continue to have, sufficient unencumbered assets after the payment of all secured obligations and administrative expenses to assure Landlord that the trustee or the debtor-in-possession will have sufficient, funds to fulfill Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and to keep the Leased Premises properly staffed with sufficient employees to conduct a fully operational, actively promoted business on the Leased Premises; and

(2) An order will have been entered segregating sufficient cash payable to Landlord and/or a valid and perfected first lien and security interest will have been granted in property of Tenant, trustee, or debtor-in-possession that is acceptable for value and kind to Landlord, to secure to Landlord the obligation of the trustee or debtor-in-possession to cure the monetary or non-monetary defaults under this Lease within the time periods set forth above.

33.3 Landlord’s Right to Terminate. In the event that this Lease is assumed by a trustee appointed for Tenant or by Tenant as debtor-in-possession under the provisions of Article 33.2 above and, thereafter, Tenant is either adjudicated a bankrupt or files a subsequent petition for arrangement under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, then Landlord may terminate, at its option, this Lease and all Tenant’s rights under it, by giving written notice of Landlord’s election to terminate.

33.4 Assignment by Trustee. If the trustee or the debtor-in-possession has assumed the Lease, under the terms of Article 33.1 or 33.2 above, and elects to assign Tenant’s interest under this Lease or the estate created by that interest to any other person, that interest or estate may be assigned only if Landlord acknowledges in writing that the intended assignee has provided adequate assurance, as defined in this Article 33.4, of future performance of all of the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease to be performed by Tenant.

33.5 Adequate Assurance. For the purposes of this Article 33 “adequate assurance of future performance” means that Landlord has ascertained that each of the following conditions has been satisfied:

(1) The assignee has submitted a current financial statement, audited by a certified public accountant, that shows a net worth and working capital in amounts determined by Landlord to be sufficient to assure the future performance by the assignee of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease,

(2) If requested by Landlord, the assignee will obtain guarantees, in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord from one or more persons who satisfy Landlord’s standards of creditworthiness;

(3) Landlord has obtained all consents or waivers from any third party required under any lease, mortgage, financing arrangement or other agreement by which Landlord is bound, to enable Landlord to permit the assignment;

(4) When, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, the trustee or the debtor-in-possession is obligated to pay reasonable use and occupancy charges for the use of all or part of the Leased Premises, the charges will not be less than the Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent.

33.6 Consent of Landlord. Neither Tenant’s interest in the Lease nor any estate of Tenant created in the Lease will pass to any trustee, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, or any other person or entity, or otherwise by operation of law under the laws of any state having jurisdiction of the person or property of Tenant unless Landlord consents in writing to the transfer. Landlord’s acceptance of Annual Basic Rent or Additional Rent or any other payments from any trustee, receiver, assignee, person, or other entity will not be deemed to have waived, or waive, the need to obtain Landlord’s consent or Landlord’s right to terminate this Lease for any transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Lease without that consent.

Landlord may approve such use subject to reasonable conditions to protect the Leased Premises, the Building or the Property, and Landlord’s interests.

34.4 Compliance With Laws. Tenant shall strictly comply with, and shall maintain the Leased Premises in compliance with, all Hazardous Materials Laws. Tenant shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect all permits, licenses and other governmental approvals required for Tenant’s operations on the Leased Premises under any Hazardous Materials Laws and shall comply with all terms and conditions thereof.

Neither the consent by Landlord to the use, generation, storage, release, disposal or transportation of Hazardous Materials nor the strict compliance with all Hazardous Material Laws shall excuse Tenant from Tenant’s indemnification obligations pursuant to this Article 34. The foregoing indemnity shall be in addition to and not a limitation of the indemnification provisions of Article 16 of this Lease. Tenant’s obligations pursuant to this Article 34 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Lease.

34.12 Landlord Representation. Landlord will supply at its expense a copy of Landlord’s existing environmental report showing that there are no hazardous substances in the Premises and shall have no obligation to update said report.

In order to induce Tenant to enter into the Lease (which is incorporated herein by reference to the extent that the provisions of this Work Letter may apply thereto) and in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:

Attached to this Work Letter is a schedule (the “Work Schedule”) setting forth the time table for the planning and completion of the installation of the tenant improvements to be constructed in the Leased Premises (the “Tenant Improvements”). The Work Schedule sets forth each of the various items of work to be done in connection with the completion of the Tenant Improvements and shall become the basis for completing the Tenant Improvements. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that time is of the essence with respect to their respective obligations as set forth in this Work Letter.

2. Tenant Improvements. The Tenant Improvements shall include the work described on Annex I to this Exhibit “E”, which work shall be done in the Leased Premises pursuant to the Tenant Improvements Plans described in Paragraph 3 below.

3. Tenant Improvement Plans. Tenant shall meet with Landlord’s architect and/or space planner for the purposes of preparing a space plan for the layout of the Premises. Based upon such space plan, Landlord’s architect shall prepare final working drawings and specifications for the Tenant Improvements. Such final working drawings and specifications are referred to in this Work Letter as the “Tenant Improvement Plans.”

4. Preparation of Tenant Improvement Plans and Final Pricing. After the preparation of the space plan and after Tenant’s approval thereof in accordance with the Work Schedule, Landlord shall cause its architect to prepare and submit to Tenant the Tenant Improvement Plans. Promptly after the approval of the Tenant Improvement Plans by Landlord and Tenant in accordance with the Work Schedule, the Tenant Improvement Plans shall be submitted to the appropriate governmental body for plan checking and building permits. Landlord, with Tenant’s cooperation, shall cause to be made such changes in the Tenant Improvement Plans necessary to obtain required permits. Tenant acknowledges that after final approval of the Tenant Improvement Plans, no further changes to the Tenant Improvement Plans may be made without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld but may be conditioned on the agreement by Tenant to pay all additional costs and expenses resulting from such requested changes that exceed the Allowance (defined below).

5. Construction of Tenant Improvements. After the Tenant Improvement Plans have been prepared and approved, and building permits for the Tenant Improvements have been issued, Landlord shall enter into a construction contract with its contractor for the installation of the Tenant Improvements in accordance with the Tenant Improvement Plans. The Tenant Improvements shall be constructed in a good, workmanlike and lien free manner, and in conformance with applicable building codes. Landlord shall supervise the completion of the Tenant Improvements and shall endeavor in good faith to secure the completion of the Tenant Improvements in accordance with the Work Schedule. The cost of the Tenant Improvements shall be paid as provided in Paragraph 6 below. Tenant shall accept the Tenant Improvements upon substantial completion thereof, as reasonably determined by Landlord’s architect.

6. Payment of the Cost of the Tenant Improvements.

a. Tenant Improvement Allowance. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant a Tenant Improvement allowance (the “Allowance”) based upon a calculation of Twenty-five and 0/100 Dollars ($25.00) per usable square foot of the Leased Premises. Landlord and Tenant agree that the usable square Footage of the Leased Premises is 4846 usable square feet. The Allowance shall be used only for:

(i) Payment of the cost of preparing the space plan and the final working drawings and specifications, including mechanical, electrical and structural drawings and of all other aspects of the Tenant Improvement Plans, including the charges of Landlord’s space planner and Landlord’s architect.

(ii) The payment of permit and license fees relating to construction of the Tenant Improvements; and Construction of the Tenant Improvements, including without limitation the following:

(6) All plumbing, fixtures, pipes and accessories to be installed within the Leased Premises; and

(7) All monument and directory signage.

b. Additional Costs. The cost of each of the items set forth in Paragraph 6(a) above shall be charged against the Allowance. In the event the anticipated cost of installing the Tenant Improvements, as established by Landlord’s final pricing schedule, shall exceed the Allowance, or in the event any of the Tenant Improvements are not to be paid for from the Allowance, the excess shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord prior to the commencement of construction of the Tenant improvements.

c. Chances to Tenant Improvement Plans. In the event that Tenant shall request any changes or substitutions to the Tenant Improvement Plans, after the Tenant Improvement Plans have been prepared and the final pricing established by Landlord, any additional costs attributable thereto shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord prior to the commencement of the work represented by such changes, unless covered under the Allowance.

d. Unused Allowance. No portion of the Allowance may be credited toward Annual Basic Rent or Additional Rent.

7. Early Entry. Landlord shall permit Tenant and Tenant’s agents to enter the Leased Premises prior to the Commencement Date in order that Tenant may do such work as may be required by Tenant to make the Leased Premises ready for Tenant’s use and occupancy. If Landlord permits such entry prior to the Commencement Date, such permission is conditioned upon Tenant and its agents, contractors, employees and invitees working in harmony and not interfering with Landlord and its agents, contractors and employees in the installation of the Tenant Improvements or in the performance of work for other tenants and occupants of the Building. If at any time such entry shall cause or threaten to cause disharmony or interference, Landlord shall have the right to withdraw such permission upon twenty-four (24) hours notice to Tenant. Any entry into the Leased Premises by Tenant prior to the Commencement Date shall be subject to all of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of the Lease, other than with

respect to Tenant’s obligation to pay Annual Basic Rent. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall not be liable in any way for any injury, loss or damage which may occur to Tenant, its agents, contractors and employees or to Tenant’s work and installations made in the Leased Premises or to property placed therein prior to the Commencement Date, all of the same being at Tenant’s sole risk, provided, however, that Landlord shall be liable to Tenant for the gross negligence of Landlord, its agents, contractors and employees.

8. Punch List Procedure. Not later than the day prior to the Commencement Date, Tenant shall prepare a list (the “Punch List”) of any deficiencies or incompleted work regarding any Tenant Improvements. Provided that such items are Landlord’s responsibility pursuant to the Tenant Improvement Plans, Landlord shall correct such deficiencies or incompleted work within a reasonable period of time, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after receipt of the Punch List, after which Landlord shall have no further obligation to alter, change, decorate or improve the Leased Premises, whether to adapt the same for the use for which it is leased or for any other purpose. The existence of such deficiencies or incompleted work shall not effect Tenant’s obligation to accept the Leased Premises as otherwise required hereunder.

9. Assignment of Warranties. Landlord shall assign to Tenant the non-exclusive right to enforce any and all warranties which Landlord may receive from any contractor, supplier or other person or entity involved with construction of the Tenant Improvements, which assignment shall continue until the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease or the expiration of the warranty, whichever occurs first.
