(B) The Tenant shall keep or be deemed to keep its records on a fiscal year basis, commencing with October 1, 1958. Within sixty (60) days after the end of each such fiscal year, the Tenant shall deliver to the

Landlord a written statement of the operation of the demised premises during the preceding fiscal year. If such statement shall disclose a net income after the payment of rent and all other expenses, but before depreciation, in excess of Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000), fifty per cent (50%) of the excess over Pour Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000) shall be paid as additional rent at the time of the delivery of the statement.

The Tenant shall have the right, at its sole expense, to contest or review any realty taxes, water charges or assessments by appropriate legal proceedings. It is the intention of the parties that this is a net lease, and that the Landlord shall receive the stipulated rental free from all taxes, charges or expenses of any kind.

(D) The Tenant shall deposit with the Land- lord or any designee of the Landlord, upon demand, such sums by way of advances against realty taxes, water charges, assessments and insurance premiums as the Landlord may reasonably require from time to time. If the Tenant shall make any such deposits with the Landlord, the Landlord agrees to use the sums so deposited for the payment of realty taxes, water charges, assessments or insurance premiums, as the case may be, as such charges become due and payable.

3. The Tenant may renew this lease for two (2) additional periods of twenty-five (25) years each, at the same rental and upon the same terms and conditions (excepting the clause relative to renewal), provided that the Tenant is not in default hereunder, and provided further that the Tenant gives to the Landlord at least ninety (90) days’ written notice of renewal.

4.

The Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall furnish and keep in force during the term of this lease liability insurance against accidents, with amounts of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) for a single claim, and One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) for more than one claim, which liability insurance shall be carried so as to cover the Landlord as well as the Tenant.

8. The Tenant, upon giving sixty (60) days’ prior notice as provided in Paragraph “26” hereof, may surrender this lease at the end of any month, in which event the Tenant shall have no personal liability for obligations accruing after the effective date of such surrender.

9. The Tenant may assign this lease, or sublet the premises, or any portion thereof, without the Landlord’s consent. No assignment, however, shall be valid unless the assignee shall assume in writing all the obligations of

2

the Tenant hereunder. In the event that the within lease is terminated for any reason, the Landlord agrees to accept as its tenants any sublessees under subleases made by the Tenant, provided as to each sublessee that he is not in default under the terms of his sublease, and that he attorns to the Landlord.

10. If the Tenant abandons the demised premises or is evicted therefrom, without having given sixty (60) days’ notice of termination as provided in Paragraph “8” above, such abandonment or eviction shall be treated as the said sixty (60) days’ notice, and the liability of the Tenant shall continue for a period of sixty (60) days from the end; of the month in which the abandonment or eviction occurs.

11. In the event of a surrender of this lease pursuant to Paragraph “8” hereof, or in the event of a valid assignment of this lease pursuant to Paragraph “9” hereof, or in the event of an abandonment by or eviction of the Tenant so as to create a surrender pursuant to Paragraph “10” hereof, then, in any of such events, the only obligations for which the Tenant shall continue to be liable after the effective date of such surrender or assignment shall be the payment of accrued rent and the payment of a proportion-ate share of the real estate taxes on the demised premises, of the insurance premiums, and of all other charges for which the tenant is responsible under the terms hereof, to the effective date of such surrender or assignment.

Similarly, if any party to the partnership which constitutes the Tenant herein makes a valid assignment of his interest in such partnership, and if the assignee thereof assumes in writing all of the obligations of such assignor hereunder, then such assignor shall be relieved of all personal liability under this lease except for accrued rent and a proportionate share of real estate taxes and other charges as hereinabove provided.

12. The Tenant shall keep the demised premises free of mechanics’ liens or other liens or orders for the payment of money.

The Tenant agrees that its rights hereunder are subordinate to any mortgages now on the demised premises, or which hereafter may be placed thereon, provided that the aggregate annual payment for interest and amortization on any such mortgages (excluding the principal payment due at maturity) shall not exceed Two Million One Hundred Eleven Thousand Dollars ($2,111,000). The Tenant agrees to execute, upon demand, any documents required to evidence such subordination. The Tenant further agrees that it will not do or suffer to be done any act upon the demised premises which will violate any of the terms of any such mortgages or the obligations secured thereby.

14. If the Landlord shall default under the terms of any mortgage to which this lease is subject, the Tenant may pay to the mortgagee the sum necessary to cure the de-fault. The Tenant shall have the right to offset such payment, with interest thereon, against any rent accruing hereunder until such payment and interest shall have been repaid to the Tenant in full.

15. The Landlord may terminate this lease by giving five (5) days’ notice as provided in Paragraph “26” hereof:

(A) If rent or any other payment due from the Tenant shall be unpaid for five (5) days after written notice by the Landlord; or

(C) If the Tenant shall be adjudicated a bankrupt, make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or take the benefit of any insolvency act, or if a permanent receiver or trustee in bankruptcy be appointed for the Tenant’s property and such appointment is not vacated within ninety (90) days.

3

In the event that the Landlord shall give the five (5) days’ notice of termination as hereinabove provided, this lease shall automatically terminate at the end of said five (5) day period, and it shall be lawful for the Landlord at its option to re-enter the demised premises by summary proceedings or by any action or proceeding or by force or otherwise) and to have, hold, repossess and enjoy them.

This provision shall not be construed to postpone the Landlord’s right to collect such sums by action or otherwise.

22.

23.

If the insurance proceeds shall exceed the cost of such repairs or rebuilding, the excess shall belong to the Tenant. The plans and specifications for any new or reconstructed building, or for any repairs involving material alterations, shall be approved in writing by the Landlord, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. There shall be no abatement of rent during the repairs or reconstruction.

(B) In the event that the holder of any mortgage on the demised premises shall elect to apply the proceeds of the fire insurance in reduction of the said mortgage, the Landlord shall endeavor to raise a fund equal to the net proceeds of such insurance, and if successful shall make such fund available to the Tenant for the purpose of such repairs or rebuilding. If the Landlord is unable to raise such fund within ninety (90) days, the Tenant may cancel this lease upon thirty (30) days’ written notice, or may advance toward the cost of the repairs or rebuilding an amount equal to the insurance proceeds applied by the mortgagee.

(D) If this lease is terminated pursuant to this Paragraph “23”, the proceeds of all insurance policies shall belong to the Landlord. However, the Landlord shall pay to the Tenant, upon the latter’s removal from the demised premises, a sum equal to the value of the unexpired term of the lease. If the parties cannot agree upon such value, the amount shall be fixed by arbitration through the American Arbitration Association, under its rules then in effect.

24. Both parties waive all right to trial by jury in any summary proceedings instituted by the Land-lord against the Tenant, or in any action to recover rent or any damages hereunder.
