and/or (ii) any sum which Landlord may expend or be required to expend by reason
of Tenant’s default. The use of the Security Deposit by Landlord shall not
prevent Landlord from exercising any other remedy provided by this Lease or by
law and shall not operate as either liquidated damages or as a limitation on any
recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. If any portion of the Security
Deposit is used, applied or retained by Landlord, Tenant agrees, within five (5)
days after the written demand therefor is made by Landlord, to deposit cash with

Deposit to the original Tenant hereunder, or the remaining balance thereof,

partners, or to another prospect with whom Landlord or its partners, or their
affiliates are then negotiating; (vi) the proposed assignee or sublessee will
cause Landlord’s existing parking facilities to be reasonably inadequate, or in

1,000 rentable square feet of floor space, or (vii) the nature of such party’s
proposed business operation would or might reasonably permit or require the use
of the Premises in a manner inconsistent with the “Permitted Use” specified

provisions of this Lease, would or might reasonably violate the terms of any
other lease for the Building, or would, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment,
otherwise be incompatible with other tenancies in the Building.

companies authorized to do business in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania with a
financial rating of at least an A-X as rated in the most recent edition of

fails to maintain such insurance, Landlord may, but is not required to, procure
and maintain the same, at Tenant’s expense to be reimbursed by Tenant as

such insurance policy in excess of Twenty Five Thousand ($25,000) must be
approved by Landlord in writing prior to issuance of such policy. Tenant shall
not self-insure without Landlord’s prior written consent. Each party hereto, and
anyone claiming through or under them by way of subrogation, waives and releases
any cause of action it might have against the other party and Brandywine Realty
Trust and their respective employees, officers, members, partners, trustees and
agents, on account of any loss or damage that is insured against under any
insurance policy required to be obtained hereunder or otherwise, and Landlord
hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Tenant harmless at all times as to
any related claim(s) of Brandywine Realty Trust. Each party agrees that it shall
cause its insurance carrier to endorse all applicable policies waiving the
carrier’s right of recovery under subrogation or otherwise against the other
party.

(i) replacement cost insurance including “special form” property insurance on
the Building and on the Project, (ii) builder’s risk insurance for the Landlord

litigation, and upon notice from Tenant shall defend the same at Landlord’s
expense by counsel satisfactory to Tenant.
14. FIRE DAMAGE. If (i)

further agrees to execute and deliver within ten (10) day of demand such further
instrument evidencing such subordination and attornment as shall be reasonably
required by any mortgagee. If Landlord shall be or is alleged to be in default
of any of its obligations owing to Tenant under this Lease, Tenant shall give to
the holder of any mortgage (the “Mortgagee”) now or hereafter placed upon the
Premises, Building and/or Project, notice by overnight mail of any such default
which Tenant shall have served upon Landlord. Tenant shall not be entitled to
exercise any right or remedy as there may be because of any default by Landlord
without having given such notice to the Mortgagee. If Landlord shall fail to
cure such default, the Mortgagee shall have forty-five (45) additional days
within which to cure such default.
16. CONDEMNATION. If in
Landlord’s reasonable judgement a taking renders the Building unsuitable at
Landlord’s option, this Lease shall, at either party’s option, terminate as of
the date title to the condemned real estate vests in the condemnor, and the Rent
herein reserved shall be apportioned and paid in full by Tenant to Landlord to
that date and all rent prepaid for period beyond that date shall forthwith be
repaid by Landlord to Tenant and neither party shall thereafter have any
liability hereunder. If this Lease is not terminated after any such taking or
condemnation, the Fixed Rent and the Additional Rent shall be equitably reduced
in proportion to the area of the Premises which has been taken for the balance
of the Term. Tenant shall have the right to make a claim against the condemnor
for moving expenses and business dislocation damages to the extent that such
claim does not reduce the sums otherwise payable by the condemnor to
Landlord.
17. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.
Each party agrees at any time and from time to time, within ten (10) days after
the other party’s written request, to execute and deliver to the other party a
written instrument in recordable form certifying all information reasonably
requested.
18. DEFAULT. If Tenant
fails to pay any installment of Rent when due; provided, however, Landlord shall
provide written notice of the failure to pay such Rent and Tenant shall have a
five (5) business day grace period from its receipt of such Landlord’s notice
within which to pay such Rent without creating a default hereunder. The late fee
set forth in Article
3 hereof shall be due on the first day after such payment is due
irrespective of the foregoing notice and grace period; Tenant “vacates” the
Premises (other than in the case of a permitted subletting or assignment) or
permits the same to be unoccupied; Tenant fails to bond over a construction or
mechanics lien within twenty (20) days of demand; Tenant fails to observe or
perform any of Tenant’s other non-monetary agreements or obligations herein
contained within twenty (20) days after written notice specifying the default,
or the expiration of such additional time period as is reasonably necessary to
cure such default, provided Tenant immediately commences and thereafter proceeds
with all due diligence and in good faith to cure such default; then, in any such
event, an “Event of Default” shall be deemed to exist and Tenant shall be in
default hereunder.
6
If an
Event of Default shall occur, the following provisions shall apply and Landlord
shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies available at law or in
equity, including the right to terminate the Lease, the rights and remedies set
forth herein, which may be exercised upon or at any time following the
occurrence of an Event of Default. 1. Acceleration of Rent.
By notice to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to accelerate all Rent and
all expense due hereunder and otherwise payable in installments over the
remainder of the Term; and the amount of accelerated rent to the termination
date, without further notice or demand for payment, shall be due and payable by
Tenant within five (5) days after Landlord has so notified Tenant, such amount
collected from Tenant shall be discounted to present value using an interest
rate of six percent (6%) per annum. Additional Rent which has not been included,
in whole or in part, in accelerated rent, shall be due and payable by Tenant
during the remainder of the Term, in the amounts and at the times otherwise
provided for in this Lease. 2. Landlord’s Damages.
The damages which Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant shall be the
sum of: (i) all Fixed Rent and Additional Rent accrued and unpaid as of the
termination date; and (ii)(a) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by
Landlord in recovering possession of the Premises, including legal fees, and
removal and storage of Tenant’s property, (ii)(b) the reasonable costs and
expenses of restoring the Premises to the condition in which the same were to
have been surrendered by Tenant as of the expiration of the Term, and (ii)(c)
the costs of reletting commissions; and (iii) all Fixed Rent and Additional Rent
otherwise payable by Tenant over the remainder of the Term as reduced to present
value and all consequential damages relating to Tenant’s breach of this Lease,
less deducting from the total determined under subsections (i), (ii) and (iii)
above, all Rent which Landlord receives from other tenant(s) by reason of the
leasing of the Premises during any period falling within the otherwise remainder
of the Term. Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages,
provided that Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for its inability to
mitigate damages if it shall endeavor to relet the Premises in like manner as it
offers other comparable vacant space or property available for leasing to others
in the Project of which the Building is a part. 3. Landlord’s Right to
Cure. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Tenant shall
fail to perform any of its obligations hereunder, Landlord may, in addition to
any other rights it may have in law or in equity, cure such default on behalf of
Tenant, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any sums paid or
costs incurred by Landlord in curing such default, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses, together with interest at a rate of
twelve (12%) percent (“Default Rate”) from the dates of Landlord’s incurring of
costs or expenses. 4. Interest on Damage
Amounts. Any sums payable by Tenant hereunder, which are not paid after
the same shall be due, shall bear interest at the Default Rate. 5. No Waiver by
Landlord. No delay or forbearance by Landlord in exercising any
right or remedy hereunder, or Landlord’s undertaking or performing any act or
matter which is not expressly required to be undertaken by Landlord shall be
construed, respectively, to be a waiver of Landlord’s rights or to represent any
agreement by Landlord to undertake or perform such act or matter thereafter.
Waiver by Landlord of any breach by Tenant of any covenant or condition herein
contained (which waiver shall be effective only if so expressed in writing by
Landlord) or failure by Landlord to exercise any right or remedy in respect of
any such breach shall not constitute a waiver or relinquishment for
the future of Landlord’s right to have any such covenant or condition
duly performed or observed by Tenant, or of Landlord’s rights arising because of
any subsequent breach of any such covenant or condition nor bar any right or
remedy of Landlord in respect of such breach or any subsequent
breach.
In
addition to, and not in lieu of any of the foregoing rights granted to
Landlord:
WHEN THIS
LEASE OR TENANT’S
RIGHT OF POSSESSION SHALL BE TERMINATED BY COVENANT OR CONDITION BROKEN, OR FOR
ANY OTHER REASON, EITHER DURING THE TERM OF THIS LEASE OR ANY RENEWAL OR
EXTENSION THEREOF, AND ALSO WHEN AND AS SOON AS THE TERM HEREBY CREATED OR ANY
EXTENSION THEREOF SHALL HAVE EXPIRED, IT SHALL BE LAWFUL FOR ANY ATTORNEY AS
ATTORNEY FOR TENANT TO FILE AN AGREEMENT FOR ENTERING IN ANY COMPETENT COURT AN
ACTION TO CONFESS JUDGMENT IN EJECTMENT AGAINST TENANT AND ALL PERSONS CLAIMING
UNDER TENANT, WHEREUPON, IF LANDLORD SO DESIRES, A WRIT OF EXECUTION OR OF
POSSESSION MAY ISSUE FORTHWITH, WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WRIT OF PROCEEDINGS,
WHATSOEVER, AND PROVIDED THAT IF FOR ANY REASON AFTER SUCH ACTION SHALL HAVE
BEEN COMMENCED THE SAME SHALL BE DETERMINED AND THE POSSESSION OF THE PREMISES
HEREBY DEMISED REMAIN IN OR BE RESTORED TO TENANT, LANDLORD SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT
UPON ANY SUBSEQUENT DEFAULT OR DEFAULTS, OR UPON THE TERMINATION OF THIS LEASE
AS HEREINBEFORE SET FORTH, TO BRING ONE OR MORE ACTION OR ACTIONS AS
HEREINBEFORE SET FORTH TO RECOVER POSSESSION OF THE SAID PREMISES.
In any
action to confess judgment in ejectment, Landlord shall first cause to be filed
in such action an affidavit made by it or someone acting for it setting forth
the facts necessary to authorize the entry of judgment, of which facts such
affidavit shall be conclusive evidence, and if a true copy of this Lease (and of
the truth of the copy such affidavit shall be sufficient evidence) be filed in
such action, it shall not be necessary to file the original as a warrant of
attorney, any rule of Court, custom or practice to the contrary
notwithstanding.
[ILLEGIBLE]
(INITIAL). TENANT WAIVER.
TENANT SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT TENANT HAS VOLUNTARILY, KNOWINGLY AND
INTELLIGENTLY WAIVED CERTAIN DUE PROCESS RIGHTS TO A PREJUDGMENT HEARING BY
AGREEING TO THE TERMS OF THE FOREGOING PARAGRAPHS REGARDING CONFESSION OF
JUDGMENT. TENANT FURTHER SPECIFICALLY AGREES THAT IN THE EVENT OF DEFAULT,
LANDLORD MAY PURSUE MULTIPLE REMEDIES INCLUDING OBTAINING POSSESSION PURSUANT TO
A JUDGMENT BY CONFESSION AND EXECUTING UPON SUCH JUDGMENT. IN SUCH EVENT AND
SUBJECT TO THE TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN, LANDLORD SHALL PROVIDE FULL CREDIT TO
TENANT FOR ANY MONTHLY CONSIDERATION WHICH LANDLORD RECEIVES FOR THE LEASED
PREMISES IN MITIGATION OF ANY OBLIGATION OF TENANT TO LANDLORD FOR THAT MONEY.
FURTHERMORE, TENANT SPECIFICALLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM AGAINST LANDLORD AND
LANDLORD’S COUNSEL FOR VIOLATION OF TENANTS CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS IN THE EVENT
THAT JUDGMENT IFOR POSSESSION IS CONFESSED PURSUANT TO THIS
LEASE.

19. SURRENDER. Tenant shall, at the
expiration of the Term, promptly quit and surrender the Premises in good order
and condition, normal wear and tear and damages caused by fire and other
casualty excepted, and in conformity with the applicable provisions of this
Lease. Tenant shall have no right to hold over beyond the expiration of the Term
and in the event Tenant fails to deliver possession of the Premises as herein
provided, Tenant’s occupancy shall not be construed to effect or constitute
anything other than a tenancy at sufferance. During the first thirty days
occupancy beyond the expiration of the Term, the amount of Fixed Rent owed to
Landlord by Tenant shall automatically increase for an additional month at one
hundred fifty percent (150%), the sum of the Rent as those sums are at that time
calculated under the provisions of the Lease. Thereafter, the amount of Fixed
Rent owed to Landlord by Tenant shall automatically increase, on a month to
month basis, at two hundred percent (200%), the sum of the Rent as those sums
are at that time calculated under the provisions of the Lease. The acceptance of
rent by Landlord or the failure or delay of Landlord in notifying or evicting
Tenant following the expiration or sooner termination of the Term shall not
create any tenancy rights in Tenant and any such payments by Tenant may be
applied by Landlord against its costs and expenses, including attorney’s fees,
incurred by Landlord as a result of such holdover.
20. RULES AND REGULATIONS. At all times
during the Term, Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees and licenses shall
comply with all rules and regulations specified on Exhibit “D” attached
hereto and made a part hereof, together with all reasonable rules and
regulations as Landlord may from time to time promulgate provided they do not
materially increase the financial burdens of Tenant or take away any rights
specifically provided to Tenant in this Lease. In the event of an inconsistency
between the rules and regulations and this Lease, the provisions of this Lease
shall control.
21. GOVERNMENTAL
REGULATIONS. Tenant shall, in the use and occupancy of the Premises and
the conduct of Tenant’s business or profession therein, at all times comply with
all applicable laws, ordinances, orders, notices, rules and regulations of the
federal, state and municipal governments. Landlord shall be responsible for
compliance with Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 00
X.X.X. §00000 et seq. and its regulations,
(collectively, the “ADA”) (i) as to the design and construction of exterior and
interior common areas (e.g. sidewalks and
parking areas) and (ii) with respect to the initial design and construction by
Landlord. Except as set forth above in the initial sentence hereto, Tenant shall
be responsible for compliance with the ADA in all other respects concerning the
use and occupancy of the Premises, which compliance shall include, without
limitation (i) provision for full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services,
facilities, privileges, advantages or accommodations of the Premises as
contemplated by and to the extent required by the ADA, (ii) compliance relating
to requirements under the ADA or amendments thereto arising after the date of
this Lease and (iii) compliance relating to the design, layout, renovation,
redecorating, refurbishment, alteration, or improvement to the Premises made or
requested by Tenant at any time following completion of the Landlord’s
Work.
22. NOTICES. Wherever a notice is

overnight courier service; (iii) forwarded by Registered or Certified mail,
return receipt requested, postage prepaid; (iv) facsimile with a copy mailed by

Each such
notice shall be deemed to have been given to or served upon the party to which
addressed on the date the same is delivered or delivery is refused.
23. BROKERS. Landlord and
Tenant each represents and warrants to the other that such party has had no
dealings, negotiations or consultations with respect to the Premises or this
transaction with any broker or finder other than Xxxxx Lang LaSalle. Each party
shall indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against all liability, cost
and expense, including attorney’s fees and court costs, arising out of any
misrepresentation or breach of warranty under this Article. The broker shall be
paid by Landlord pursuant to a separate agreement.
24. LANDLORD’S LIABILITY. Landlord’s
obligations hereunder shall be binding upon Landlord only for the period of time
that Landlord is in ownership of the Building; and, upon termination of that
ownership, Tenant, except as to any obligations which are then due and owing,
shall look solely to Landlord’s successor in interest in the Building for the
satisfaction of each and every obligation of Landlord hereunder. Landlord shall
have no personal liability under any of the terms, conditions or covenants of
this Lease and Tenant shall look solely to the equity of Landlord in the
Building for the satisfaction of any claim, remedy or cause of action accruing
to Tenant as a result of the breach of any section of this Lease by Landlord. In
addition to the foregoing, no recourse shall be had for an obligation of
Landlord hereunder, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect
thereof, against any past, present or future trustee, member, partner,
shareholder, officer, director, partner, agent or employee of Landlord, whether
by virtue of any statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment
or penalty or otherwise, all such other liability being expressly waived and
released by Tenant with respect to the above-named individuals and
entities.
25. RELOCATION. Landlord, at its sole expense,
on at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to Tenant, may require Tenant
to move from the Premises to another corner suite of substantially comparable
size and decor in the Building or in the Project. In the event of any such
relocation, Landlord shall pay all the expenses of preparing and decorating the
new premises so that they will be substantially similar to the Premises and
shall also pay the expenses of moving Tenant’s furniture and equipment to the
new premises.
26. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. (a) Successors. The
respective rights and obligations provided in this Lease shall bind and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto, their successors and assigns; provided,
however, that no rights shall inure to the benefit of any successors or assigns
of Tenant unless Landlord’s written consent for the transfer to such successor
and/or assignee has first been obtained as provided in Article 9 hereof; (b)
Governing Law. This Lease shall be
construed, governed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania, without regard to principles relating to conflicts of law; (c)
Entire Agreement. This Lease, including
the Exhibits and any Riders hereto, supersedes any prior discussions, proposals,
negotiations and discussions between the parties and the Lease contains all the
agreements, conditions, understandings, representations and warranties made
between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may
not be modified orally or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing
signed by both parties hereto or their respective successors in interest.
Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Lease can only
be extended pursuant to the terms hereof, with the due exercise of an option (if
any) contained herein or through a written agreement signed by both Landlord and
Tenant specifically extending the Term. No negotiations, correspondence by
Landlord or offers to extend the term shall be deemed an extension of the
termination date for any period whatsoever; (d) Time of
the Essence. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE IN
ALL PROVISIONS OF THIS LEASE, INCLUDING ALL NOTICE PROVISIONS TO BE PERFORMED BY
OR ON BEHALF OF TENANT; (e) Accord
and Satisfaction. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a
lesser amount than any payment of Fixed Rent or Additional Rent herein
stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest
stipulated Fixed Rent or Additional Rent due and payable hereunder, nor shall
any endorsement or statement or 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 pursue any other right or remedy provided for in this
Lease, at law or in equity; (f) Guaranty. Intentionally omitted. (g)
Force Majeure. If by reason of strikes or other
labor disputes, fire or other casualty (or reasonable delays in adjustment of
insurance), accidents, orders or regulations of any Federal, State, County or
Municipal authority, or any other cause beyond Landlord’s or Tenant’s (as the
case may be) reasonable control (each, a “force majeure event”), Landlord is
unable to furnish or is delayed in furnishing any utility or service required to
be furnished by Landlord under the provisions of this Lease or is unable to
perform or make or is delayed in performing or making any installations,
decorations, repairs, alterations, additions or improvements, or is unable to
fulfill or is delayed in fulfilling any of Landlord’s other obligations under
this Lease, no such inability or delay shall constitute an actual or
constructive eviction, in whole or in part, or entitle Tenant to any abatement
or diminution of Fixed Rent, or relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under
this Lease, or impose any liability upon Landlord or its agents, by reason of
inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant, or injury to or interruption of Tenant’s
business, or otherwise. If Tenant is prohibited from or delayed in performing
any of its non-monetary obligations hereunder due to a force majeure event, it
shall not relieve Landlord of its obligations hereunder during the pendency of
such force majeure event. In the event that Tenant is delayed in performing any
act (other than any of its monetary obligations hereunder) because of a force
majeure event, then such performance shall be excused for the period of the
delay and the period for the performance of any such act shall be extended for
an equivalent period. (h) Financial Statments.
Tenant shall furnish to Landlord, Landlord’s Mortgagee, prospective Mortgage or
purchaser reasonably requested financial information; (i) Authority. Tenant represents and
warrants that (a) Tenant is duly organized, validly existing and legally
authorized to do business in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and (b) the
persons executing this Lease are duly authorized to execute and deliver this
Lease on behalf of Tenant. Landlord represents and warrants that (a) it is duly
organized, validly existing and legally authorized to do business in the

Fees. In connection with any litigation arising out of this Lease,

incurred, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
9

state courts located in Delaware County and to the federal courts located in the
Eastern District of Pennsylvania.

(i) listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List
maintained by the Office of Foreign Asset Control, Department of the Treasury
(“OFAC”) pursuant to Executive Order No. 13224, 66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (Sept. 25,

regulations of OFAC (including without limitation the Trading with the Enemy
Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1-44; the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50
U.S.C. §§ 1701-06; the unrepealed provision of the Iraq Sanctions Act, Publ.L.
No. 101-513; the United Nations Participation Act, 22 U.S.C. § 2349 as-9; The
Cuban Democracy Act, 22 U.S.C. §§ 6001-10; The Cuban Liberty and Democratic
Solidarity Act, 18 U.S.C. §§ 2332d and 233; and The Foreign Narcotic Kingpin
Designation Act, Publ. L. No. 106-120 and 107-108, all as may be amended from
time to time); or any other applicable requirements contained in any enabling
legislation or other Executive Orders in respect of the Order (the Order and
such other rules, regulations, legislation or orders are collectively called the
“Orders”); (vi) engaged in activities prohibited in the Orders; or (vii) (and
has not been) convicted, pleaded nolo contendere, indicted, arraigned or
custodially detained on charges involving money laundering or predicate crimes
to money laundering, drug trafficking, terrorist-related activities or other
money laundering predicate crimes or in connection with the Bank Secrecy Act (31
U.S.C. §§ 5311 et. seq.). Tenant further represents, warrants and covenants that
Tenant shall conduct its business operations in compliance with the forgoing
laws, rules, orders and regulations. Tenant hereby agrees to defend, indemnify,
and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims, damages, losses,
risks, liabilities, and expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs) arising
from or related to any breach of the foregoing representations, warranties and
covenants. The breach of either of the above representations, warranties and
covenants by Tenant shall be an Event of Default under this Lease.
29. EARLY ACCESS TO
PREMISES. Tenant and its authorized agents, employees and contractors
shall have the right, at Tenant’s own risk, expense and responsibility, at all
reasonable times 15 days prior to the Commencement Date, to enter the Premises
for the purpose of taking measurements and installing its furnishings, fixtures
and equipment.
30. EARLY TERMINATION.
Tenant shall have a one-time right to terminate this Lease at the end of the
50th
month of the Term, provided Tenant (i) is not then in default, (ii) gives
Landlord not less than twelve (12) months prior written notice, and (iii) pays
to Landlord, at the time of said notice the sum of $93,000 representing the
unamortized cost of the transaction (“Termination Payment”). Failure to provide
written notice and payment within the prescribed time frame will be considered
by Landlord, without the necessity of additional notice, as a waiver of this
right to terminate. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the Termination Payment
is not a penalty and is fair and reasonable compensation to Landlord for the
loss of expected rentals from Tenant over the remainder of the scheduled
term.
31. RENEWAL. Provided
Tenant is neither in default at the time of exercise nor has Tenant ever been in
default (irrespective of the fact that Tenant cured such default) of any
monetary obligations under this Lease more than twice during the Term and such
monetary default aggregates in excess of $50,109.15, and Tenant is fully
occupying the Premises and the Lease is in full force and effect. Tenant shall
have the right to renew this Lease for one (1) term of five (5) years beyond the
end of the current Term (“Renewal Term”). Tenant shall furnish written notice of
intent to renew nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the current Term,
failing which, such renewal right shall be deemed waived; time being of the
essence. The terms and conditions of this Lease during the Renewal Term shall
remain unchanged except that the annual Fixed Rent shall increase each year by
3% from the previous year. Anything herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding. Tenant shall have no right to renew the term hereof other than
or beyond the one (I) term of five (5) years hereinabove described. It shall be
a condition of such Renewal Term that Landlord and Tenant shall have executed,
not less than seven (7) months prior to the expiration of the Term hereof, an
appropriate amendment to this Lease, in form and content satisfactory to each of
them, memorializing the extension of the Term hereof for the Renewal
Term.
32. QUIET ENJOYMENT.
Provided Tenant has performed all of the terms and conditions of this Lease to
be performed by Tenant, including the payment of Fixed Rent and Additional Rent,
Tenant shall peaceably and quietly hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term,
without hindrance from Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or under
Landlord, under and subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease and of any
mortgages now or hereafter affecting all of or any portion of the
Premises.
IN
