(e) The term "Tenant's Proportionate Share" is ________________%, which
was determined by dividing the gross rentable square footage of the Building
into the Tenant's rentable square footage.
Section 3.2. Interim Additional Rent. During the period from the commencement
date of this Lease until January, 19__, Tenant shall pay an interim Additional
Rent of $5.35 per square foot per year and any adjustment thereof to reflect the
interim Additional Rent charge for 19__ , which is merely an estimate of actual
Taxes and Operating Expenses for such period. In early January of each year of

days of receipt of assessment.
Section 3.3. Budget; Future Additional Rent. Landlord shall furnish to Tenant
prior to January 31 of each year, a budget setting forth Landlord's estimate

equal to the monthly sum payable under this Section. If there shall be any
increase or decrease in the Taxes or Operating Expenses for any year, whether
during or after such year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a revised Budget and
the Additional Rent shall be adjusted and paid or refunded, as the case may be.

Section 3.4. Statement of Actual Costs. Within one Hundred Twenty (120) days
after the end of each year, Landlord shall furnish to tenant an Operating
Statement showing actual Taxes paid and Operating Costs incurred or reserved for
the preceding year. If the Operating Statement shows that the sums paid by
Tenant under this Article minus any amounts collected and held in the reserve
account exceed Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Additional Rent allocated to
Operating Expenses, Landlord shall promptly either refund to Tenant the amount
of such excess or permit Tenant to credit the amount thereof against subsequent
payments of Additional Rent under this Article; and if the Operating Statement
shows that the sums paid by Tenant were less than Tenant's Proportionate Share
of the same, Tenant shall pay the amount of such deficiency within ten (10) days
after demand therefore. Each Operating Statement given by Landlord shall be
conclusive and binding upon Tenant (a) unless within thirty (30) days after the
receipt thereof, Tenant shall notify Landlord that it disputes the accuracy of
said Operating Statement, specifying the particular respects in which the
Operating Statement is claimed to be incorrect. Failure of Landlord to submit
the written statement referred to herein shall not waive any rights of Landlord.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Base Rent shall never be decreased below that
amount set forth in Section 2.1 of this Lease.
ARTICLE IV
Preparation of Premises
Section 4.1. Leasehold Improvements. The Premises shall be completed and
prepared for Tenant's occupancy in the manner, and subject to the provisions of
a separate agreement between Landlord and Tenant. The facilities, materials and
work to be furnished, installed and performed in the Premises by Landlord, at
its expense, are hereinafter referred to as "Landlord's Work". In addition, such
other facilities, materials and work which may be undertaken by or for the
account of Tenant to equip, decorate and furnish the Premises for Tenant's
occupancy are hereinafter referred to as "Tenant's Work".
Section 4.2 Completion by Landlord. The Premises shall be deemed ready for
occupancy on the date on which Landlord's Work shall have been substantially
completed; the same shall be deemed substantially completed notwithstanding the
fact that minor or insubstantial details of construction, mechanical adjustment
or decoration remain to be performed, the non-completion of which does not
materially interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises. Landlord shall give
Tenant at least ten (10) days notice of the date on which Landlord estimates
Landlord's Work will be substantially completed. Any variance between the date
so estimated and the date on which Landlord's Work shall have been substantially
completed shall be of no consequence. Tenant shall occupy the Premises promptly
after the same are ready for occupancy.
Section 4.3. Delay by Tenant. If the substantial completion of the Landlord's
Work shall be delayed due to: (a) any act or omission of the Tenant or any of
its employees, agents or contractors (including, but not limited to, (i) any
delays due to

changes in or additions to Landlord's Work, or (ii) any delays by Tenant in the
submission of plans, drawings, specifications, or other information or in
approving any work, drawings, or estimates or in giving any authorizations or
approvals); or (b) any additional time needed for the completion of Landlord's
Work by the inclusion on Landlord's Work of any special work, then the Premises
shall be deemed ready for occupancy on the date they would have been ready but
for such delay and Rent shall commence as of such earlier date.
Section 4.4. Time Not of the Essence. If Landlord is unable to give possession
of the Premises on the Commencement Date, for any reason whatsoever, Landlord
shall not be subject to any liability for said failure and the validity of this
Lease shall not be impaired under such circumstances, nor shall the same be
construed in any way to extend the term of this Lease. If the Premises are
delivered after the Commencement Date, the Base Rent and Additional Rent payable
hereunder shall be abated (provided Tenant is not responsible for the inability
to obtain possession) until Landlord has given a second notice to Tenant that
the Premises are ready for Tenant's occupancy. If Landlord shall give Tenant
permission to enter into the possession of the Premises prior to the
Commencement Date, such possession or occupancy shall be deemed to be upon all
the terms, covenants, conditions, and provisions of this Lease including the
execution of an estoppel certificate.
Section 4.4. Acceptance of Premises. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has not
made any representations or warranties with respect to the condition of the
Premises and neither Landlord or any assignee of Landlord shall be liable for
any latent defect therein. The taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant
shall be conclusive evidence that the Premises were in good and satisfactory
condition at the time such possession was taken, except for the minor or
insubstantial details referred to in this Section of which Tenant gives Landlord
notice, within thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date, specifying such
details with reasonable particularity.

rendered untenantable due to such damage until such damage is repaired. If the
Premises shall be so damaged by fire or otherwise that the cost of restoration
shall exceed Fifty Percent (50%) of the replacement value thereof, exclusive of
foundations, immediately prior to such damage, Landlord may, within thirty (30)

(a) A sum which at the time of such termination of this Lease, or at
the time of any re-entry by Landlord, as the case may be, represents the then
value of the excess, if any, of: (1) the aggregate amount of the Monthly Base
Rent and Additional Rent which would have been payable by Tenant (conclusively
presuming the average monthly Additional Rent to be the same as were payable for
the year, or, if less than 365 days have then elapsed since the Commencement
Date, the partial year, immediately preceding such termination or re-entry) for
the period commencing with such earlier termination of this Lease or the date of
any such re-entry, as the case may be, and ending with the date contemplated as
the expiration date hereof if this Lease had not so terminated or if Landlord
had not so re-entered the Premises; over (ii) the aggregate rental value of the
Premises for the same period; or
(b) Sums equal to the Monthly Base Rent and the Additional Rent which
would have been payable by Tenant had this Lease not so terminated or had
Landlord not so re-entered the Premises, payable upon the due dates therefore
specified herein following such termination or such re-entry and until the date
contemplated and the expiration date if this Lease had not so terminated or if
Landlord had not so re-entered the Premises.
If Landlord, at his option, shall relet the Premises during said period,
Landlord shall credit Tenant with the net rents received by Landlord from such
reletting, such net rents to be determined by first deducting from the gross
rents, as and when received by Landlord, the expenses incurred or paid by
Landlord in terminating this Lease and/or re-entering the Premises and in
securing possession thereof, as well as the expenses of reletting, including,
without limitation, the alteration and preparation of the Premises for new
Tenants, brokers' commissions, attorneys' fees, and all other expenses properly
chargeable against the Premises and the rental therefrom. It is hereby
understood that any such reletting may be for a period shorter or longer than
the remaining term of this Lease but in no event shall Tenant be entitled in any
suit for the collection of damages pursuant hereto to a credit in respect of any
net rents from a re-letting, except to the extent that such net rents are
actually received by Landlord.
(c) A lump sum equal to the Monthly Base Rent then in effect plus the
estimated Additional Rent to become due for the remainder of the term of this
Lease.

ARTICLE XXIII
Miscellaneous
Section 23.1. Financial Statements. Throughout the Term of this Lease, Landlord
may periodically request from Tenant its most current and complete financial
statement including, but not limited to, its balance sheet and profit and loss
statement.
Section 23.2. Estoppel Certificates. Each party agrees, at any time and from
time to time, as requested by the other party to execute and deliver to the
other a statement certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and
effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and
effect as modified and stating the modifications), certifying the dates to which
the Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent have been paid, stating whether or
not, the other party is in default in performance of any of its obligations
under this Lease, and, if so, specifying each such default and stating whether
or not any event has occurred which with the giving of notice or passage of
time, or both, would constitute such a default, and, if so, specifying each such
event. Any such statement delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed a
representation and warranty to be relied upon by the party requesting the
certificate and by others with whom such party may be dealing, regardless of
independent investigation. Tenant also shall include in any such statements such
other information concerning this Lease as Landlord may reasonably request. It
shall be a condition precedent to the Landlord's obligation to deliver
possession of the Premises to the Tenant, that Tenant execute an estoppel
certificate accepting the Premises and acknowledging the Lease. In the event

material breach of the Lease. If Tenant fails to execute the initial estoppel
certificate, Rent shall continue to accrue but Landlord shall be under no
obligation to deliver possession of the Premises.
Section 23.3. Approval by Superior Mortgagee. This Lease shall become binding
upon Landlord's execution and approval of the Lease by Landlord's Superior
Mortgagee for the building. Tenant agrees that Landlord may make modifications
to this Lease, if required by Landlord's Superior Mortgagee, which modifications
shall be binding upon Tenant without further signature, provided such
modifications do not materially impair Tenant's rights hereunder or materially
increase Tenant's obligations hereunder.

Records of Palm Beach County, Florida, or in any other

execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord for purposes of recording, such
memorandum of this Lease as Landlord may request for the purpose of obtaining
the benefits of Section 713.10 of the Florida Statutes (or any successor
legislative provision) which applies to mechanics liens. In no event shall such
memorandum set forth the rent or other charges payable by the Tenant under this
Lease; and any such memorandum shall state expressly that it is executed
pursuant to the provisions contained in this Lease, and that it is not intended
to and shall not be deemed to change vary or otherwise affect any of the terms,
covenants, conditions and/or provisions of this Lease.
If such memorandum is recorded, Tenant, upon request of Landlord, shall
forthwith execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all documents which Landlord
may require so as to release such memorandum from record. Furthermore, such
memorandum shall provide that Tenant, for itself and its heirs, personal
representatives, successors and assigns, does hereby make, constitute and
appoint any person coming within the definition of Landlord herein, and any
officer of any entity coming within such definition, as its, his, her or their
attorney-in-fact and in its, his, her or their name, place and xxxxx, to execute
and acknowledge, whenever desired by Landlord, any instrument which Landlord may
deem appropriate to release such memorandum from record and shall further
provide that such appointment is coupled with an interest and is not revocable
by Tenant, or any heir, personal representative, successor or assign of Tenant.
Section 23.5. Entire Agreement, etc. This Lease and the writing referred to
herein constitute the entire understanding between the parties and shall bind
the parties, their successors and assigns. No representations, except as herein
expressly set forth, have been made by any party to the other, and this Lease
cannot be amended, modified or canceled, except by a writing, signed by Landlord
and Tenant during the term of this Lease. The headings and captions contained in
this Lease are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed part of or
be used in construing this Lease.

accordance with the laws of the State of Florida. If any provision of this Lease
or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, for any reason
and to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease and
the application of that provision to other persons or circumstances permitted by
law shall apply. The table of contents, captions, invalid or unenforceable, the
application of that provision permitted by law headings and titles in this Lease
are solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect its interpretation.
This Lease shall be construed without regard to any presumption or other rule
requiring construction against the party causing this Lease to be drafted. Each
covenant, agreement, obligation, or other provision of this Lease on Tenant's
part to be performed, shall be deemed and construed as a separate and
independent covenant of Tenant, not dependent on any other provision of this
Lease. All terms and words used in this Lease, regardless of the number or
gender in which they are used, shall be deemed to include any other number and
any other gender as the context may require.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Lease the day and year first
