Section 4.02. Covenants of Tenant Regarding Use.
(a) Tenant shall (i) use and maintain the Leased Premises and conduct its business thereon in a safe, careful, reputable and lawful manner, (ii) comply with all covenants that apply to Tenant's operations within or use of the Leased Premises and all laws, rules, regulations, orders, ordinances, directions and requirements of any governmental authority or agency, now in force or which may hereafter be in force, including, without limitation, those which shall impose upon Landlord or Tenant any duty with respect to or triggered by a change in the use or occupation of, or any improvement or alteration to, the Leased Premises, (iii) comply with and obey all reasonable directions, rules and regulations of Landlord, including the Building Rules and Regulations attached hereto as Exhibit B and made a part hereof, as may be reasonably modified from time to time by Landlord on reasonable written notice to Tenant, and (iv) comply with all of the terms and restrictions of the Security/Safety/Access Rider attached hereto as Exhibit C and made a part hereof, as may be reasonably modified from time to time by Landlord on reasonable written notice to Tenant. If any of the Building Rules and Regulations is inconsistent with any express provision of this Lease, the express provision of this Lease shall prevail and the Building Rules and Regulations shall not be applicable to Tenant to the extent of the inconsistency. During the Lease Term, Tenant shall be solely responsible to apply for and procure and maintain any and all permits and government authorizations for its installation, operation and use of any of the equipment and systems of Tenant; and shall indemnify the Landlord for any and all damages arising from its failure to do so.
(b) Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Leased Premises that will in any way cause a nuisance, injure, obstruct or interfere with the rights of Landlord or other tenants or occupants of the Building. Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the non-performance by any other tenant or occupant of the Building of any of Landlord's directions, rules and regulations, but agrees that any enforcement thereof shall be done uniformly. Tenant shall not overload the floors of the Leased Premises. All damage to the floor structure or foundation of the Building due to improper positioning or storage of items or materials shall be repaired by Landlord at the sole expense of Tenant, who shall reimburse Landlord immediately therefor upon demand. Tenant shall not use the Leased Premises, nor allow the Leased Premises to be used, for any purpose or in any manner that would (i) invalidate any policy of insurance now or hereafter carried by Landlord on the Building, or (ii) increase the rate of premiums payable on any such insurance policy unless Tenant reimburses Landlord for any increase in premium charged.
(a) Landlord may, upon at least one hundred eighty (180) days' prior written notice to Tenant, require Tenant to relocate a portion of the office part of the Leased Premises (the "Released Premises") to other office premises (the "New Premises") in the Building in accordance with the provisions contained in this Section. The New Premises shall be substantially equivalent space as the Released Premises. Tenant's direct, reasonable moving costs and expenses paid to third parties shall be reimbursed by Landlord within thirty (30) days from Landlord's receipt of paid invoices from Tenant. The amounts payable under this Lease shall not be adjusted as a result of any such relocation. Within thirty (30) days after Landlord provides its relocation notice to Tenant hereunder, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease providing for the relocation of Tenant to the New Premises as provided in this Section.
(b) In the event that Tenant does not vacate and surrender possession of the Released Premises to Landlord in the time period specified by Landlord's relocation notice, or cease its operations of business at the Released Premises, as the case may be, on the date and in the manner required pursuant to the preceding paragraph, in addition to all other liabilities and damages to which Tenant shall be subject by reason thereof, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, damages, expenses, fees, costs, fines, penalties, suits, proceedings, actions, causes of action and losses of any and every kind and nature (including, without limitation, sums paid in settlement of claims and for reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) that may be imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord arising, directly or indirectly, out of or in connection with Tenant's failure to surrender possession of, or cease its operation of business at, the Released Premises. Landlord shall also have the right to specific performance with respect to Tenant's obligation to surrender possession of, and cease operation of its business at, the Released Premises. The election of Landlord to insist upon specific performance in such event shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of any provision, covenant, agreement or condition on the part of Tenant to be performed or of any other remedy that Landlord may be entitled to under this Lease, at law, in equity or otherwise.
ARTICLE 5 - UTILITIES
Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the utilities are jointly metered with other property and that Landlord will pay for such utilities and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its share of such utilities in an amount equal to $11,000/month, payable in the same manner and time and upon the same terms and conditions as the Monthly Rental Installments reserved hereunder. Landlord shall not be liable in damages or otherwise for any failure or interruption of any utility or other building service and no such failure or interruption shall entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease or withhold sums due hereunder. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may increase such monthly amount if the Tenant's scope of operations change during the Lease Term. In addition, Landlord shall have the right to separately meter the Leased Premises from the remainder of the Building and if it elects such separate metering, Tenant shall pay directly to the utility providers the actual amount of any such utilities utilized at the Leased Premises.
Tenant shall not, without Landlord's prior written consent, use heat-generating machines or equipment or lighting other than Building standard lights in the Leased Premises, which may affect the temperature otherwise maintained by the air conditioning system or increase the need for water normally furnished for the Leased Premises by Landlord. If such consent is given, Landlord shall have the right to install supplementary air conditioning systems or equipment in the Leased Premises, including supplementary or additional metering devices, and the cost thereof, including the cost of installation, operation and maintenance, increased wear and tear on existing equipment and other similar charges, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon billing by Landlord. If Tenant desires to use heat, ventilation or air conditioning ("HVAC") during hours other than normal business hours, (i) Tenant shall give Landlord such prior notice, as Landlord shall from time to time establish as appropriate, of Tenant's desired use, (ii) Landlord shall supply such utilities to Tenant at such hourly cost to Tenant as Landlord shall from time to time establish, and (iii) Tenant shall pay such cost to Landlord within ten (10) days after billing, as additional rent.
ARTICLE 6 - REPAIRS, MAINTENANCE AND ALTERATIONS
LANDLORD AND TENANT ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AS TO THE QUALITY OR CONDITION OF THE LEASED PREMISES, AND THE FIXTURES THERETO AND SYSTEMS THEREIN ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED AND WAIVED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY THAT THE LEASED PREMISES WILL BE REASONABLY SUITED FOR ITS INTENDED USE OR FREE OF LATENT DEFECTS. TENANT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LANDLORD IS LEASING THE LEASED PREMISES TO TENANT ON AN "AS-IS, WHERE-IS" BASIS, AND TENANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS ACCEPTING THE LEASED PREMISES ON SUCH BASIS WITH ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BEING EXCLUDED.
ARTICLE 7 - INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE
Section 7.04. Tenant's Insurance.
(a) During the Lease Term (and any period of early entry or occupancy or holding over by Tenant, if applicable), Tenant shall maintain the following types of insurance, in the amounts specified below:
(i) Liability Insurance. Commercial General Liability Insurance, ISO Form CG 00 01, or its equivalent, covering Tenant's use of the Leased Premises against claims for bodily injury or death or property damage, which insurance shall be primary and non-contributory and shall provide coverage on an occurrence basis with a per occurrence limit of not less than $2,000,000.00 for each policy year, which limits may be satisfied by any combination of primary and excess or umbrella per occurrence policies.
(ii) Property Insurance. Special Form Insurance in the amount of the full replacement cost of Tenant's Property (including, without limitation, alterations or additions performed by Tenant pursuant hereto), which insurance shall waive coinsurance limitations.
(iii) Worker's Compensation Insurance. Worker's Compensation insurance in amounts required by applicable law.
(iv) Business Interruption Insurance. Business Interruption Insurance with limits not less than an amount equal to one (1) year of rent hereunder.
(v) Automobile Insurance. Comprehensive Automobile Liability Insurance insuring bodily injury and property damage arising from all owned, non-owned and hired vehicles, if any, with minimum limits of liability of $1,000,000.00 combined single limit, per accident.
(b) All insurance required to be carried by Tenant hereunder shall (i) be issued by one or more insurance companies reasonably acceptable to Landlord, licensed to do business in the State in which the Leased Premises is located and having an AM Best's rating of A VII or better, and (ii) provide that said insurance shall not be materially changed, canceled or permitted to lapse on less than thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Landlord. In addition, Tenant's insurance shall protect Tenant and Landlord as their interests may appear, naming Landlord, and any mortgagee requested by Landlord, as additional insureds under its commercial general liability, excess and umbrella policies (but only to the extent of the limits required hereunder). On or before the Commencement Date (or the date of any earlier entry or occupancy by Tenant), and thereafter, within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of each such policy, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with certificates of insurance in the form of XXXXX 25 (or other evidence of insurance reasonably acceptable to Landlord), evidencing all required coverages, and that with the exception of Worker's Compensation insurance (if applicable), such insurance is primary and non-contributory. Upon Tenant's receipt of a request from Landlord, Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of all insurance policies, including all endorsements, evidencing the coverages required hereunder. If Tenant fails to carry such insurance and furnish to Landlord not more than five (5) days after Landlord's written request therefor such certificates of insurance or copies of insurance policies (if applicable), Landlord may obtain such insurance on Tenant's behalf and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for the cost thereof as Additional Rent. Landlord reserves the right from time to time to require Tenant to obtain higher minimum amounts or different types of insurance if it becomes customary for other landlords of similar buildings in the area to require similar sized tenants in similar industries to carry insurance of such higher minimum amounts or of such different types.
In the event of total or partial destruction of the Building or the Leased Premises by fire or other casualty, Landlord agrees promptly to restore and repair same within one hundred eighty (180) days after such casualty (the "Scheduled Completion Date"); provided, however, Landlord's obligation hereunder with respect to the Leased Premises shall be limited to the reconstruction of such of the leasehold improvements as were originally in the Leased Premises on the Commencement Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be in default for failing to timely complete such restoration and repair unless Tenant provides to Landlord written notice of default for such failure on or after the Scheduled Completion Date and Landlord fails to complete such restoration and repair within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice. The Monthly Rental Installments shall proportionately xxxxx during the time that the Leased Premises or any part thereof are unusable because of any such damage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Leased Premises are (a) so destroyed that they cannot be repaired or rebuilt within one hundred eighty (180) days from the casualty date; or (b) destroyed by a casualty that is not covered by the insurance required hereunder or, if covered, such insurance proceeds are not released by any mortgagee entitled thereto or are insufficient to rebuild the Building and the Leased Premises; then, in case of a clause (a) casualty, either Landlord or Tenant may, or, in the case of a clause (b) casualty, then Landlord may, upon thirty (30) days' written notice to the other party, terminate this Lease with respect to matters thereafter accruing; provided, however, that the Monthly Rental Installment shall proportionately xxxxx during the time that the Leased Premises or any part thereof are unusable because of any such casualty.
ARTICLE 9 - EMINENT DOMAIN
If all or any substantial part of the Building or Common Areas shall be acquired by the exercise of eminent domain, Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Tenant on or before the date possession thereof is so taken. If all or any part of the Leased Premises or Building or Common Areas shall be acquired by the exercise of eminent domain so that the Leased Premises shall become impractical for Tenant to use for the Permitted Use, Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord as of the date possession thereof is so taken. All damages awarded shall belong to Landlord; provided, however, that Tenant may claim dislocation damages if such amount is not subtracted from Landlord's award.
ARTICLE 10 - ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE
Tenant shall not assign, mortgage, pledge or in any manner transfer this Lease or any interest therein, nor sublet the Leased Premises in whole or in part without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Landlord's sole discretion. In the event of any assignment or subletting of this Lease, Tenant shall remain primarily liable hereunder, and any extension, expansion, rights of first offer, rights of first refusal or other options granted to Tenant under this Lease shall be rendered void and of no further force or effect. The acceptance of rent from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the provisions of this Lease or to be consent to the assignment of this Lease or the subletting of the Leased Premises. Any assignment or sublease consented to by Landlord shall not relieve Tenant (or its assignee) from obtaining Landlord's consent to any subsequent assignment or sublease.
If Tenant shall make any assignment or sublease, with Landlord’s consent, for a rental in excess of the rent payable under this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of any such excess rental (after deduction of Tenant's reasonable costs of subletting or assignment) upon receipt. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($500.00) upon demand by Landlord for reasonable accounting and attorneys' fees incurred in conjunction with the processing and documentation of any requested assignment, subletting or any other hypothecation of this Lease or Tenant's interest in and to the Leased Premises as consideration for Landlord's consent.
In addition, upon any proposed assignment of this Lease by Tenant, or a request for Landlord's consent to an assignment of this Lease, Landlord shall be permitted to terminate this Lease upon notice to Tenant.
No assignment of this Lease by Tenant or subletting of all or any portion of the Leased Premises shall be effective unless and until Tenant shall deliver to Landlord (i) all information reasonably requested by Landlord in connection with evaluating a proposed assignee or subtenant, and (ii) an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, pursuant to which (i) in the case of an assignment, such assignee assumes and agrees to be bound by all of the provisions of this Lease and confirming the assignee's agreement to accept and be bound by all of the Tenant's obligations under this Lease; and (ii) in the case of a sublease, such subtenant acknowledges that its sublease is subject and subordinate to this Lease and agrees to be bound by the Lease.
ARTICLE 11 - TRANSFERS BY LANDLORD
ARTICLE 12 - DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
Section 12.01. Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall be a "Default":
(a) Tenant fails to pay any Monthly Rental Installments or Additional Rent when due; provided, however, that Landlord agrees to give Tenant written notice of such failure twice during any calendar year during the Lease Term and from and after Landlord has given two (2) such notices during any calendar year, Tenant shall have committed a Default under this Lease in the event it fails to pay any further Monthly Rental Installments or Additional Rent during such calendar year when due and payable with no further notice required from Landlord during such calendar year. If notice is given as provided above, Tenant shall be in default if it fails to pay such delinquent Monthly Rental Installment or Additional Rent within five (5) business days after receipt of such notice.
(b) Tenant fails to perform or observe any other term, condition, covenant or obligation required under this Lease for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord; provided, however, that if the nature of Tenant's default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required to cure, then such default shall be deemed to have been cured if Tenant commences such performance within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently completes the required action within a reasonable time.
(c) Tenant shall vacate or abandon the Leased Premises, or fail to occupy the Leased Premises or any substantial position thereof for a period of thirty (30) days without payment of rent.
(d) Tenant shall assign or sublet all or a portion of the Leased Premises in contravention of the provisions of Article 10 of this Lease.
(e) All or substantially all of Tenant's assets in the Leased Premises or Tenant's interest in this Lease are attached or levied under execution (and Tenant does not discharge the same within sixty (60) days thereafter); a petition in bankruptcy, insolvency or for reorganization or arrangement is filed by or against Tenant (and Tenant fails to secure a stay or discharge thereof within sixty (60) days thereafter); Tenant is insolvent and unable to pay its debts as they become due; Tenant makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; Tenant takes the benefit of any insolvency action or law; the appointment of a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy for Tenant or its assets if such receivership has not been vacated or set aside within thirty (30) days thereafter; or, dissolution or other termination of Tenant's corporate charter if Tenant is a corporation.
(a) Landlord may re-enter the Leased Premises and cure any Default of Tenant, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord as Additional Rent for any costs and expenses that Landlord thereby incurs; and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage that Tenant may sustain by reason of Landlord's action, except to the extent such loss or damage resulted directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord.
(b) Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving Tenant notice of termination, in which event this Lease shall expire and terminate on the date specified in such notice of termination and all rights of Tenant under this Lease and in and to the Leased Premises shall terminate. Tenant shall remain liable for all obligations under this Lease arising up to the date of such termination, and Tenant shall surrender the Leased Premises to Landlord on the date specified in such notice.
(c) Without terminating this Lease, Landlord may terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Leased Premises, and thereafter, neither Tenant nor any person claiming under or through Tenant shall be entitled to possession of the Leased Premises. In such event, Tenant shall immediately surrender the Leased Premises to Landlord, and Landlord may re-enter the Leased Premises and dispossess Tenant and any other occupants of the Leased Premises by any lawful means and may remove their effects, without prejudice to any other remedy that Landlord may have. Upon termination of possession, Landlord may re-let all or any part thereof as the agent of Tenant for a term different from that which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Lease Term and for rent and on terms and conditions different from those contained herein, whereupon Tenant shall be immediately obligated to pay to Landlord an amount equal to (i) the present value (discounted at the Prime Rate) of the difference between the rent provided for herein and (A) that provided for in any lease covering a subsequent re-letting of the Leased Premises, for the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Lease Term had this Lease not been terminated (said period being referred to herein as the "Remaining Term"), or (B) if not relet, then the market rent that Landlord could reasonably expect to receive with respect to the Leased Premises for the remaining Lease Term (the "Accelerated Rent Difference"); (ii) the costs of recovering possession of the Leased Premises and all other reasonable expenses, loss or damage incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's Default ("Default Damages"), which shall include, without limitation, expenses of preparing the Leased Premises for re-letting (other than costs of tenant improvements for the buildout specific to the new tenant), demolition, repairs, brokers' commissions and attorneys' fees, and (iii) all unpaid
Monthly Rental Installments and Additional Rent that accrued prior to the date of termination of possession, plus any interest and late fees due hereunder (the "Prior Obligations"). Neither the filing of any dispossessory proceeding nor an eviction of personalty in the Leased Premises shall be deemed to terminate the Lease.
(d) Landlord may terminate this Lease and recover from Tenant all damages Landlord may incur by reason of Tenant's default, including, without limitation, an amount which, at the date of such termination is equal to the sum of the following: (i) the value of the excess, if any, discounted at the Prime Rate of interest, of (A) the Monthly Rental Installments, Additional Rent and all other sums that would have been payable hereunder by Tenant for the Remaining Term, less (B) the aggregate reasonable rental value of the Leased Premises for the Remaining Term, as determined by a real estate broker licensed in the State of Indiana who has at least ten (10) years of experience, (ii) all of Landlord's Default Damages, and (iii) all Prior Obligations. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the payment of the amount set forth in clause (i) above shall not be deemed a penalty, but shall merely constitute payment of liquidated damages, it being understood that actual damages to Landlord are extremely difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain. It is expressly agreed and understood that all of Tenant's liabilities and obligations set forth in this Section 12.02(d) shall survive termination.
(e) Landlord may xxx for injunctive relief or to recover damages for any loss resulting from the Default.
(f) If Landlord terminates this Lease or Tenant's right to possession, Landlord's duty to mitigate its damages under this Lease shall be as follows: (1) Landlord shall be required to use commercially reasonable efforts ·to mitigate, which shall not exceed such efforts as Landlord generally uses to lease other space in the Building, (2) Landlord will not be deemed to have failed to mitigate if Landlord leases any other portions of the Building before reletting all or any portion of the Leased Premises, and (3) Landlord shall not be deemed to have failed to mitigate if it reasonably incurs costs and expenses for repairs, maintenance, changes, alterations, and improvements to the Leased Premises (whether to prevent damage or to prepare the Leased Premises for reletting), brokerage commissions, advertising costs, attorneys' fees, any economic incentives given to replacement tenants, and costs of collecting rent from replacement tenants. In recognition that the value of the Building depends on the rental rates and terms of leases therein, Landlord's rejection of a prospective replacement tenant based on an offer of rentals substantially below Landlord's published rates for new leases of comparable space at the Building at the time in question, or at Landlord's option, below the rates provided in this Lease, containing terms less favorable than those contained herein, shall not give rise to a claim by Tenant that Landlord failed to mitigate Landlord's damages. Tenant shall bear the burden of proving Landlord's failure to mitigate.
ARTICLE 13 - TENANT'S RESPONSIBILITY REGARDING ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS AND HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES
Section 13.01. Environmental Definitions.
(a) "Environmental Laws" shall mean all present or future federal, state and municipal laws, ordinances, rules and regulations applicable to the environmental and ecological condition of the Leased Premises, and the rules and regulations of the Federal Environmental Protection Agency and any other federal, state or municipal agency or governmental board or entity having jurisdiction over the Leased Premises.
(b) "Hazardous Substances" shall mean those substances included within the definitions of "hazardous substances," "hazardous materials," "toxic substances," "solid waste" or "infectious waste" under Environmental Laws and petroleum products.

Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall comply with all Environmental Laws with respect to any of the foregoing Biological Items allowed under this Section. Landlord may condition its consent to the presence of such animals based on quantity, type, arrangements for storage, sanitation, transportation, and other physical and logistical considerations as Landlord may reasonably determine in each instance and from time to time as circumstances may require.
Tenant will (i) obtain and maintain in full force and effect all environmental permits that may be required from time to time under any Environmental Laws applicable to Tenant or the Leased Premises and (ii) be and remain in compliance with all terms and conditions of all such environmental permits and with all other limitations, restrictions, conditions, standards, prohibitions, requirements, obligations, schedules and timetables contained in all Environmental Laws applicable to Tenant or the Leased Premises. From time to time upon Landlord's written request, Tenant shall provide to Landlord all environmental permits pertaining to the Leased Premises and Tenant's business operations therein.

(a) Tenant hereby represents and warrants that (i) Tenant is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (if applicable) in accordance with the laws of the State under which it was organized; (ii) Tenant is authorized to do business in the State where the Building is located; and (iii) the individual(s) executing and delivering this Lease on behalf of Tenant has been properly authorized to do so, and such execution and delivery shall bind Tenant to its terms.
(b) Landlord hereby represents and warrants that (i) Landlord is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (if applicable) in accordance with the laws of the State under which it was organized; (ii) Landlord is authorized to do business in the State where the Building is located; and (iii) the individual(s) executing and delivering this Lease on behalf of Landlord has been properly authorized to do so, and such execution and delivery shall bind Landlord to its terms.
