2. Description of Leased Premises. Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant
leases from Landlord, the Leased Premises described in Section 1. The Leased
Premises are delineated on the floor plan attached hereto and incorporated
herein as Exhibit A. Exhibit A sets forth the general outline of the Leased
Premises and shall not be deemed a warranty on the part of Landlord that the
Leased Premises are or will be exactly as indicated on such diagram. Tenant's
occupancy of the Leased Premises shall include the use in common with others
entitled thereto of such parking areas, service roads, sidewalks, equipment
facilities, service areas, hallways, doors, stairwells, and the like (the
"Common Areas") as Landlord may, from time to time, make available to Tenant for
use in common with others, subject, however, to the terms and conditions of this
Lease and to all Rules and Regulations for the use thereof as may from time to
time be prescribed by Landlord. Landlord may increase, reduce, or change the
number, dimensions, and locations of roadways, walks, buildings, and parking
areas as Landlord from time to time deems proper. However, any such reduction
that may occur to the shared core area of the Building shall not diminish the
shared core area of the Building to less than ten percent (10%) of the gross
building square footage, without a pro rata reduction in the Minimum Rent, nor
shall any such reduction diminish the parking spaces granted to Tenant, as set
forth in Section 11 of this Lease.
3. Use of Leased Premises. The Leased Premises shall be used solely for
the Permitted Use indicated in Section 1, and for no other purpose.
Notwithstanding, Tenant, or any of its approved subtenants and/or assignees,
covenants that it will not, at any time during the Term, operate in the Leased
Premises (either directly or indirectly) as a provider of telecommunications,
cellular or long distance services that markets and services its customers
through a call center environment.
4. Length and Commencement of Term.
(a) The term of this Lease shall commence on the Commencement
Date, and continue for the Term indicated in Section 1 following the
Commencement Date. Landlord and Tenant shall execute and deliver a written
statement in recordable form prepared by Landlord specifying the Minimum Rent
due at commencement and Lease expiration date, if same have not been fixed by
this Lease.
(b) If Landlord, due to delay in construction or for any other
reason whatsoever, does not deliver possession of the Leased Premises to Tenant
on or before February 1, 2003, this Lease shall not be void or voidable;
however, if a building permit is issued by the City of Hampton by December 15,
2002, and delivery of possession of the Leased Premises is delayed beyond MARCH
30, 2003 due to delay in construction or for any reason other than a delay
caused by Tenant, Tenant may, at its option, void the lease in the manner
prescribed hereafter, after giving written notice to Landlord indicate its
intent to void this Lease. For each day after December 15, 2002 that the
building permit has not been issued, the cancellation date shall be extended day
for day. Upon receipt of Tenant's written notice of intent to terminate,
Landlord shall have an additional thirty (30) days to deliver possession of the
Leased Premises, after which period the Lease shall automatically become void if
the Leased Premises are not delivered to Tenant. In such an event, cancellation
of the Lease by Tenant in this manner shall not be considered an event of
default and Tenant will not be liable for any payment of any amounts whatsoever
and shall be due an immediate refund of any security deposits paid.
5. Rent. Tenant shall pay, as rent for the Leased Premises, the Minimum
Rent indicated in Section 1, paid in advance in monthly installments. If the
Commencement Date is not the first day of the month, rent for that month shall
be
Landlord's Initials:_________ Tenant's Initials:_________
prorated. If any rent or other sum is not received by Landlord by the fifth day
of the month, Tenant shall pay a late charge of One Thousand Dollars
($1,000.00). Such penalty, however, shall not be imposed for the first late
payment received by Landlord. If any payment under this Lease is made by check
and such check is returned by the pay or for any reason, Tenant shall pay a
returned check charge of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00). In addition, any rent or
other sum not received by Landlord when due shall bear interest from the due
date to the payment date at the prime rate published from time to time by the
Wall Street Journal, plus three percent (3%), but in no event shall it be less
than twelve percent (12%) per annum. If such rate exceeds the maximum rate
permitted by law with respect to Tenant, Tenant shall pay interest at the
highest lawful rate applicable to Tenant.
6. Payments. All rental and other payments shall be made to Landlord at
the Rent Payment Address, as indicated in Section 1, until Landlord otherwise
directs in writing. All charges, fees, and other amounts due, other than Minimum
Rent, shall be deemed Additional Rent. Unless otherwise provided in this Lease
or in writing, all payments of Minimum Rent and Additional Rent shall be payable
monthly in advance on or before the first day of each month during the Term,
without prior demand and without offset, reduction, defense, or counterclaim.
All payments shall be made prior to the close of business (Eastern Standard
Time) on the date specified for such payment and in immediately available United
States funds.
7. Operating Costs and Services.
(a) Landlord covenants that it shall pay, when due, all real
estate taxes and assessments, building insurance and all operating
expenses, including payment for ordinary janitorial service to the
Leased Premises (collectively, the "Expenses") for the Building and
Common Areas.
(b) Regarding the Common Areas associated with the Building,
Landlord shall, during normal operating business hours, furnish adequate
lighting, lavatory supplies, hot and cold water for lavatory and
drinking purposes, janitorial and cleaning, heating and air-conditioning
in the interior areas during the appropriate seasons of the year, as
well as snow, ice and trash removal, parking lot sweeping, landscape
maintenance, and nighttime lighting throughout the exterior areas of the
Building property. Any security measures that Landlord may provide are
for the protection of the Building only and shall not be relied upon by
Tenant to protect Tenant or its employees, or Tenant's or its employee's
property. Landlord shall continue to provide watch guard service in and
around the Building at the same level of coverage as provided as of the
execution of this Lease, as set forth in Exhibit G - Watch Guard
Services. The normal operating business hours for the Building are
defined as 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday, and 8:00 AM to
1:00 PM on Saturdays, exclusive of federally recognized holidays.
Notwithstanding, Tenant and its employees shall have access to the
Building and to the Leased Premises 24 hours per day, 365 days per year.
(c) Regarding the Leased Premises, Landlord shall furnish (i)
electricity sufficient for lighting and typical office equipment; (ii)
fluorescent tube replacements; (iii) janitorial and cleaning services
five nights per week in accordance with prevailing industry practices,
as set forth in Exhibit F - Janitorial Services; and (iv) electric
heating and air conditioning, as needed. All such services shall be
provided without cost to Tenant except for the cost of electricity
consumed in excess of $.11 per rentable square foot per month. Any such
excess shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent to Landlord within ten
(10) days after receipt of Landlord's invoices. If Tenant is furnished
additional services, or if Tenant's use of the Leased Premises causes
additional expense to Landlord, Tenant shall pay any associated
additional expense. If Tenant wishes to install electrical equipment
such as electrical heating or refrigeration equipment, electronic data
processing machines, or equipment using current which exceeds that
usually furnished for use in office space, Tenant shall obtain the prior
written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, and shall pay as Additional Rent the additional electricity
cost involved. If any required services are suspended or curtailed due
to accident, emergency, mechanical breakdown, or any other cause beyond
Landlord's reasonable control, Landlord shall restore the services with
reasonable dispatch, but Landlord shall not have any responsibility or
liability for the curtailment or suspension of services and there shall
be no abatement of rent or other effect on Tenant's obligations under
this Lease.

8. Security Deposit. Tenant will deposit with Landlord or Agent,
simultaneously with this Lease, the Security Deposit indicated in Section 1, as
security for the full performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under this
Lease. The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord or Agent in escrow. Any
interest accruing to the Security Deposit shall accrue to Tenant. If Tenant
fails to pay any items of rent or other sum when due, or if Landlord elects to
perform any obligation of Tenant, or if Tenant otherwise defaults, Landlord
shall have the right, at its sole option and without prejudice to any other
remedy of Landlord, to apply all or such part of the Security Deposit as may be
necessary to either pay such amount due, compensate Landlord for its performance
of Tenant's obligation, or reimburse Landlord for any loss, damage, or expense
Landlord may have sustained as a result of Tenant's default. If Landlord so
applies all or part of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall immediately upon
demand restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. The Security Deposit
and accrued interest thereon shall be returned to Tenant in accordance with the
following schedule: Twenty percent (20%) after twenty-four months, provided that
Tenant maintains an uninterrupted record of full and timely Minimum Rent
payments and has not been in default under this Lease or delinquent in any
payment of Rents, Additional Rents or other sum of money due; an additional
twenty percent (20%) after 36 months, provided that Tenant is not then, and has
not previously been, delinquent in any payment of Rents Additional Rents or
other sum of money due; an additional twenty percent (20%) after 48 months,
provided that Tenant is not then, and has not previously been, delinquent in any
payment of Rents Additional Rents or other sum of money due; an additional
twenty percent (20%) after 60 months, provided that Tenant is not then, and has
not previously been, delinquent in any payment of Rents Additional Rents or
other sum of money due, and within sixty (60) days after the expiration or
termination of the Term, including any extensions and or renewals, and upon the
surrender of the Leased Premises in good and clean condition and accordance with
the provisions of this Lease, Landlord shall return the balance of the Security
Deposit to Tenant or to the then holder of Tenant's interest under this Lease,
less an amount, if any, estimated by Landlord as necessary to satisfy any unpaid
or unperformed obligations of Tenant. Delivery of such balance shall discharge
Landlord and Agent from any liability with respect to the Security Deposit.
Landlord or Agent shall further have the right to deliver the Security Deposit
to any transferee of Landlord's interest in this Lease, at which time Landlord
and Agent shall be discharged from any further liability with respect to the
Security Deposit. Landlord or Agent shall further have the right to deliver the
Security Deposit to any transferee of Landlord's interest in this Lease, at
which time Landlord and Agent shall be discharged from any further liability
with respect to the Security Deposit.
As required under Landlord's mortgage documents, Tenant hereby agrees not to
look to Landlord's lender, as lender, lender in possession, or successor in
title to the property, for accountability, for any security deposit required by
the Landlord hereunder, unless said sums have actually been received by said
lender as security for the Tenants performance of this Lease.
9. Trade Fixtures. Tenant shall have the right to install its trade
fixtures in the Leased Premises, provided such installation shall not interfere
with either the construction or operation of the Building or the completion of
any improvements to the Leased Premises which Landlord may have specifically
agreed in this Lease to perform, and such installation shall be at the sole risk
and expense of Tenant. All trade fixtures installed in the Leased Premises by
Tenant shall remain the property of, and shall be removable by, Tenant at the
expiration of the Term, provided Tenant is not in default under this Lease, and
Tenant shall promptly repair, or reimburse Landlord for the cost of repairing,
all damages to the Leased Premises caused by the removal of those fixtures.
Tenant agrees that all additions and improvements and attached equipment
installed in or on the Premises by Tenant, including but not being limited to,
electric wiring, electric fixtures, floor coverings, heating and
air-conditioning machinery and equipment, shall immediately become the property
of Landlord and shall not be removed by Tenant at the termination of this Lease,
unless requested so to do by Landlord, in which event Tenant agrees to do so and
to repair promptly any damage caused by such removal. Landlord acknowledges that
any generator, telephone equipment, computer equipment, television cameras, and
plasma screens that may be installed by Tenant shall be deemed to be trade
fixtures.
10. Control of Common Areas and Facilities by Landlord. The Common Areas
shall at all times be subject to the exclusive control and management of
Landlord, and Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to establish,
modify, and enforce reasonable rules and regulations with respect to the Common
Areas. Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to
construct, maintain, and operate lighting facilities on all Common Areas; to
police the same; to change, in Landlord's sole discretion, the area, level,
location, quantity, and arrangement, from time to time, of the Common Areas; to
Landlord's Initials:_________ Tenant's Initials:_________
close or discontinue common use of all or any portion of the Common Areas to
such extent as may, in the opinion of Landlord or Landlord's counsel, be legally
sufficient, necessary, or proper to prevent a dedication or the accrual of any
rights to any person or the public; and to do and perform such other acts in and
to the Common Areas as Landlord, in its sole discretion, determines to be
necessary to improve the convenience and use thereof by tenants or their
officers, agents, employees, and customers, or to improve the profitability of
the Building. Landlord will operate and maintain the Common Areas in such manner
as Landlord, in its sole discretion, shall determine from time to time. Without
limiting the scope of such discretion, Landlord shall have the full right and
authority to employ all personnel and to make rules and regulations pertaining
to the proper operation and maintenance of the Common Areas and facilities.
11. Use of Parking Areas. Landlord grants to Tenant for Tenant's
non-exclusive use, a maximum number of parking spaces equivalent to eight (8)
spaces per one thousand (1,000) square foot of rentable area. Such spaces will
be unreserved and unassigned and open to all Building tenants, employees and
visitors. All automobile parking areas, driveways, entrances, and exits in or
near the Building, and other facilities furnished by Landlord in or near the
Building, shall at all times be subject to Landlord's exclusive control and
management, and Landlord shall have the right from time to time to establish,
modify, and enforce reasonable rules and regulations with respect to all such
facilities and areas. If Tenant or Tenant's employees use such parking areas,
driveways, streets, or vacant land in violation of any such rules and
regulations, Landlord may order any violating vehicles to be towed from such
areas at Tenant's sole cost and expense, plus 10% for Landlord's overhead
expenses, which shall be payable to Landlord on demand.
12. Maintenance by Landlord. Subject to the following section, Landlord
shall, within a reasonable time after having received written notice from Tenant
of such a need, make such repairs to the Building as may be necessary to keep
the Building in good condition and repair. Landlord will not be responsible for
any damage resulting from any leak or defect in the roof, sidewalls, gutters, or
downspouts unless such damage is due to Landlord's failure to repair such defect
within a reasonable time after Landlord has received notice from Tenant of the
need to repair such defect. Landlord shall maintain in good condition and
repair, and adequately light, the parking areas of the Building. In the event
that Landlord does not initiate and then complete any such repairs that have a
direct impact on Tenant in a reasonably timely manner, then Tenant shall have
the right to effect such repairs and then invoice Landlord for direct costs
incurred, provided that the costs are reasonable and appropriate. In such
circumstances, Tenant may not offset Rent payments.
13. Maintenance by Tenant. Tenant shall, at its expense, make such
repairs to the Leased Premises as are caused by the negligence or willful act of
Tenant or any of its agents, employees, contractors, licensees, or invitees.
14. Sundry Covenants of Tenant. Tenant shall: (a) comply with all
federal, state, and municipal laws, ordinances, and regulations relating to the
Leased Premises and its Permitted Use, including, without limitation, all
environmental laws, rules and regulations (collectively the "Environmental
Laws") and all laws, rules, and regulations in connection with the Americans
with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended (the "ADA"); (b) notify Landlord
immediately upon receipt of all notices or other communications by governmental
authorities regarding possible or actual noncompliance with laws, ordinances, or
regulations; (c) not use or permit to be used any advertising medium or device,
such as radio, or public address system, without Landlord's prior written
consent; (d) not use or permit to be used the Leased Premises for any illegal or
immoral purpose; and (e) keep the Leased Premises free from insects, pests, and
vermin of all kinds, and for that purpose Tenant shall use, at Tenant's cost,
such pest extermination contractor as Landlord may direct and at such internals
as Landlord may require.
The Leased Premises shall not be used for the treatment, storage, use,
or disposal of toxic or hazardous wastes or substances, or any other substance,
exposure to which is prohibited, limited, or regulated by a governmental or
quasi-governmental authority or which, even if not so regulated, could or does
pose a hazard to the health and/or safety of the occupants of the Building or
surrounding property. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and
against any expense or liability (including attorney's fees) arising under the
Environmental Laws resulting from Tenant's use of the Leased Premises or any
acts and/or omissions of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees, or
independence contractors.
15. Improvements. (Either (a) or (b) must be checked prior to
execution.)
Landlord's Initials:_________ Tenant's Initials:_________
_______ (a) Tenant is accepting the Leased Premises "as is," except as
specified in Exhibit B - "Tenant Improvements," and Tenant shall pay the
cost of any improvements or alterations desired by Tenant. Any such
improvements or alterations to the Leased Premises shall be performed
only after Tenant has obtained the prior written consent of Landlord,
which consent may be withheld for any or no reason. Tenant has inspected
the Leased Premises and is satisfied with its physical condition.
___ X__ (b) Landlord shall provide the build-out of the Leased
Premises in accordance with Exhibit B - Tenant Improvements attached
hereto. Landlord will invite RGI General Contractors, in addition to
those selected by Landlord, to submit bids to Landlord for the build out
of the Leased Premises. Landlord will allow Tenant to participate in the
general contractor selection process; however, Landlord shall make the
final selection of the general contractor based upon reasonable
selection criteria, including price, qualifications and the ability to
deliver the Leased Premises on time. Any improvements or alterations to
the Leased Premises in addition to those specified on Exhibit B - Tenant
Improvements shall be performed at Tenant's expense, and only after
Tenant has obtained the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent
may be withheld for any or no reason. Notwithstanding, Tenant shall have
the right to perform cosmetic, non-structural, non-electrical,
non-mechanical, non-plumbing improvements in the Leased Premises without
Landlord's approval, provided that any single cosmetic improvement does
not exceed $1,000 in cost, or require a building permit.
16. Compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. If the ADA
requires that action be taken with respect to the Leased Premises (not including
the Common Areas), including without limitation removing barriers and altering
the Leased Premises in accordance with the ADA Accessibility Guidelines, such
action shall be taken by Tenant; provided, however, that if such action was
required to be taken during Landlord's build-out (if applicable) of the Leased
Premises, Landlord shall take such action. Tenant shall notify Landlord
immediately upon receipt of an oral or written complaint or notice by an
employee, customer, client, invitee, licensee, or governmental authority
regarding the ADA.
17. Assignment and Subletting. Without Landlord's prior written consent,
Tenant shall not (either voluntarily, involuntarily, or by operation of law)
assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, or encumber this Lease or any
interest under this Lease; nor sublet or grant concessions of or to the Leased
Premises, in whole or in part; nor allow any person (other than Tenant, its
employees, agents, servants, and invitees) to occupy or use all or part of the
Leased Premises. If Landlord consents to any such assignment, sublease, etc.,
Tenant shall pay an assignment fee of $500.00 to reimburse Landlord for the
time, effort, and expense incurred in processing such assignment, sublease, etc.
Regardless of any such consent, no assignment or subletting shall release Tenant
of its obligations or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay rent and
perform all its other obligations under this Lease. Landlord's consent to one
assignment, subletting, occupation, or use by any other person shall not be
deemed consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation, or use by
another person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Section 17, Tenant shall have the right to sublease or assign this Lease to an
affiliated entity in which Tenant has controlling ownership without Landlord's
prior consent. Landlord's approval of any subleases or assignments to unrelated
entities shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided
such sublessee or assignee has equal or better financial strength in comparison
to Tenant.
18. Condemnation. If the whole or any part of the Leased Premises shall
be taken by power of eminent domain or condemned by any competent authority for
any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or if any adjacent property or street
shall be so taken or condemned, or reconfigured or vacated by such authority in
such manner as to require the use, reconstruction, or remodeling of any part of
the Leased Premises, or if Landlord shall grant a deed or other instrument in
lieu of such taking by eminent domain or condemnation, Landlord (and if more
than ten percent (10%) of the rentable area of the Leased Premises is taken, or
if access to the Leased Premises or any common restrooms serving the same is
materially impaired, Tenant) shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon
sixty (60) days' notice, provided such notice is given no later than 180 days
after the date of such taking, condemnation, configuration, vacation, deed, or
other instrument. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award or
payment in connection therewith, and Tenant waives any right it may have to any
such award or payment. All rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such
termination or the date of such taking, whichever shall first occur. If any part
of the Leased Premises shall be taken, and this Lease shall not be so
terminated, the rent shall be proportionately abated.
Landlord's Initials:_________ Tenant's Initials:_________
19. Damage by Fire or Other Casualty. If the Leased Premises is damaged
by fire or other casualty during the Term, but are not rendered untenable in
whole or in part, Landlord shall promptly at its expense cause such damage to
the Leased Premises to be repaired, and rent shall not be abated. If the Leased
Premises is damaged by fire or other casualty during the Term and is rendered
partially untenable, Landlord shall promptly at its own expense cause the damage
to the Leased Premises to be repaired, and rent shall be abated for the period
of untenantability in proportion to the portion of the Leased Premises rendered
untenable. If the Leased Premises is damaged by fire or other casualty during
the Term and is rendered untenable Landlord may, at its sole option, either (i)
restore the Leased Premises with reasonable dispatch to substantially the same
condition they were in prior to such damage, insofar as the proceeds from
Landlord's insurance permit, or (ii) terminate this Lease. If Landlord elects to
restore the Leased Premises, but is unable to deliver possession of the restored
Leased Premises to Tenant within sixty (60) days of the casualty, Tenant may
deliver notice to the Landlord of its intent to void the Lease. Upon receipt of
Tenant's notice of intent to terminate, Landlord shall have an additional
fifteen (15) days to deliver possession of the Leased Premises, after which
period the Lease shall automatically become void. In such an event, cancellation
of the Lease by Tenant in this manner shall not be considered an event of
default and Tenant will not be liable for any payment of any amounts whatsoever
and shall be due an immediate refund of any security deposits paid. If Landlord
elects to restore the Leased Premises, Landlord shall have no liability to
restore any improvements as may have been made to the Leased Premises,, whether
before or after the date of this Lease, nor to restore any of Tenant's fixtures,
decorations, equipment, furniture, or inventory. Landlord's sole responsibility,
if any, shall be to deliver to Tenant a shell space with roof, floor, exterior
walls, windows, and doors. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, all rent
payable shall be abated as of the date of such damage and Tenant shall remove
all of its property from the Leased Premises within thirty (30) days after the
notice of termination is given, provided Tenant is not in default at the time.
20. Insurance.
(a) Tenant shall, at all times during the Term and at its own
cost and expense, carry: (i) comprehensive general liability insurance
on the Leased Premises (including Common Areas adjoining the Leased
Premises) with limits of not less than $2,000,000 for injury or death to
one person, $5,000,000 for injury or death to more than one person, and
$500,000 for property damage; (ii) "all-risk" casualty insurance,
written at replacement cost value and with replacement cost endorsement,
covering all Tenant's personal property in the Leased Premises
(including, without limitation, inventory, trade fixtures, floor
coverings, furniture, and other property removable by Tenant under the
provisions of this Lease) and all leasehold improvements installed in
the Leased Premises by or on behalf of Tenant; and (iii) if and to the
extent required by law, workmen's compensation or similar insurance. The
foregoing policies shall be primary policies not contributing with and
not in excess of coverage which Landlord may carry.
(b) Landlord shall maintain, upon such terms as Landlord deems
appropriate, direct physical loss or damage insurance on the shell of
the Building, Common Areas and existing tenant improvements, and a
combined single limit bodily injury and property damage liability
insurance policy. If Tenant changes its use of the Leased Premises or
introduces any hazardous materials or equipment into the Leased Premises
which cause any increase in Landlord's insurance premiums, Tenant shall
pay the increase as Additional Rent.
(c) All such insurance policies shall name Landlord as a named
insured and shall be written by companies acceptable to Landlord and in
form acceptable to Landlord. Each such policy shall also contain a
provision prohibiting cancellation without thirty (30) days' prior
written notice to Landlord or its designee. Certificates of such
insurance policies shall be delivered to Landlord promptly after the
issuance of the respective policies, and annually thereafter. If Tenant
fails to provide or maintain any such insurance, Landlord may (but shall
not be obligated to) do so and collect the cost thereof as Additional
Rent.
21. Indemnification of Landlord. Except in situations involving
Landlord's, its agents' or invitees' gross negligence or their failure to
perform their responsibilities under this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify and hold
Landlord harmless from liability for damages to person or property (including
Tenant's employees, customers, and other invitees) in or upon the Leased
Premises, including vestibules, entryways, and walkways adjoining the Leased
Premises, and the loading platform area, if any, allocated to the use of Tenant.
Tenant shall also indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from such liability for
damages in other parts of the Building if caused by Tenant's negligence,
affirmative act, or breach of its obligations under this Lease.
Landlord's Initials:_________ Tenant's Initials:_________
All property kept, stored, or maintained in the Premises shall be kept, stored,
or maintained at Tenant's sole risk. Tenant waives all claims against and
releases Landlord, and Landlord's employees and agents, from liability for
damages or injury suffered by Tenant or any person claiming through Tenant as a
result of any accident or other occurrence in or upon the Leased Premises or any
other part of the Building or Common Areas, unless the damage or injury was
caused by Landlord, or by Landlord's agents' or invitees' gross negligence,
willful misconduct or failure to perform their responsibilities under this
Lease.
22. Waiver of Subrogation. Tenant waives all claims against Landlord for
any damage or loss Tenant may suffer which is covered by an insurance policy
carried by Tenant (or which Tenant is required to carry under this Lease); and
any insurance policy carried by Tenant covering the Leased Premises, its
contents, or any part thereof, shall contain an express waiver of any right of
subrogation against Landlord by the issuer of the policy.
23. DEFAULT
23.1 "Event of Default" Defined.
Any one or more of the following events shall constitute an "Event of Default":
(a) The sale of Tenant's interest in the Premises under
attachment, execution or similar legal process, or if
Tenant is adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent under any
state bankruptcy or insolvency law or an order for
relief is entered against Tenant under the Federal
Bankruptcy Code and such adjudication or order is not
vacated within ten (10) days.
(b) The commencement of a case under any chapter of the
Federal Bankruptcy Code by or against Tenant or any
guarantor of Tenant's obligations hereunder, or the
filing of a voluntary or involuntary petition proposing
the adjudication of Tenant or any such guarantor as
bankrupt or insolvent, or the reorganization of Tenant
or any such guarantor, or an arrangement by Tenant or
any such guarantor with its creditors, unless the
petition is filed or case commenced by a party other
than Tenant or any such guarantor and is withdrawn or
dismissed within thirty (30) days after the date of its
filing.
(c) The admission in writing by Tenant or any such guarantor
of its inability to pay its debts when due;
(d) The appointment of a receiver or trustee for the
business or property of Tenant or any such guarantor,
unless such appointment shall be vacated within ten (10)
days of its entry.
(e) The making by Tenant or any such guarantor of an
assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or if in
any other manner Tenant's interest in this Lease shall
pass to another by operation of law.
(f) The failure of Tenant to pay any Minimum Rent,
Additional Rent or other sum of money when due.
(g) Default by Tenant, after receipt of written notice from
Landlord, in the performance or observance of any
covenant or agreement of this Lease (other than a
default involving the payment of money), which default
is not cured within ten (10) days after the giving of
notice thereof by Landlord, unless such default is of
such nature that it cannot be cured within such ten (10)
day period, in which case no Event of Default shall
occur so long as Tenant shall commence the curing of the
default within such ten (10) days period and shall
thereafter diligently prosecute the curing of same;
provided, however, if Tenant shall default in the
performance of any such covenant or agreement of this
Lease two (2) or more times in any twelve (12) month
period, then notwithstanding that each of such defaults
shall have been cured by Tenant, any further similar
default shall be deemed an Event of Default without the
ability for cure.
(h) The vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Tenant at
any time following delivery of possession of the
Premises to Tenant.

constituting an "Event of Default" elsewhere in this
Lease.
23.2 Remedies.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, [except for Items 23.1(a), 23.1(b),
23.1(c), 23.1(d), 23.1(e), and/or 23.1(g)], Landlord, upon 10 days notice to
Tenant (except where otherwise expressly provided for below or by applicable
law) may do any one or more of the following:
(a) With or without judicial process, enter the Premises and
take possession of any and all goods, inventory,
equipment, fixtures and all other personal property
(excluding portfolio and individual financial files) of
Tenant, which is or may be put into the Premises during
the Term, whether exempt or not from sale under
execution or attachment (it being agreed that said
property shall at all times be bound with a lien in
favor of Landlord and shall be chargeable for all Rental
and for the fulfillment of the other covenants and
agreements herein contained), and Landlord may sell all
or any part thereof at public or private sale. Tenant
agrees that ten (10) days prior written notice of any
public or private sale shall constitute reasonable
notice. The proceeds of any such sale shall be applied,
first, to the payment of all costs and expenses of
conducting the sale or caring for or storing said
property (including reasonable attorneys' fees); second,
toward the payment of any indebtedness, including
(without limitation) indebtedness for Rental, which may
be or may become due from Tenant to Landlord; and third,
to pay Tenant, on demand, any surplus remaining after
all indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord has been fully
paid;
(b) Perform, on behalf and at the expense of Tenant, any
obligation of Tenant under this Lease which Tenant has
failed to perform and of which Landlord shall have given
Tenant notice, the cost of which performance by
Landlord, together with interest thereon at the Default
Rate from the date of such expenditure, shall be deemed
Additional Rental and shall be payable by Tenant to
Landlord upon demand. Notwithstanding the provisions of
this clause (b) and regardless of whether an Event of
Default shall have occurred, Landlord may exercise the
remedy described in this clause (b) without any notice
to Tenant if Landlord, in its good faith judgment,
believes it would be materially injured by failure to
take rapid action or if the unperformed obligation of
Tenant constitutes an emergency;
(c) Elect to terminate this Lease and the tenancy created
hereby by giving ten (10) days prior written notice of
such election to Tenant, and reenter the Premises,
without the necessity of legal proceedings, and remove
Tenant and all other persons and property from the
Premises, and may store such property in a public
warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the
account of Tenant without resort to legal process and
without Landlord being deemed guilty of trespass or
becoming liable for any loss or damage occasioned
thereby; or
(d) Exercise any other legal or equitable right or remedy
which it may have.
Any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees) in enforcing any of its rights or remedies under
this Lease shall be deemed to be Additional Rental and shall be repaid to
Landlord by Tenant upon demand.
23.3 Damages.
If this Lease is terminated by Landlord pursuant to Section 23.2, Tenant
nevertheless shall remain liable for (a) any Rental and damages which may be due
or sustained prior to such termination, all reasonable costs, fees and expenses
including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses
incurred by Landlord in pursuit of its remedies hereunder, or in renting the
Premises to others from time to time (all such Rental, damages, costs, fees and
expenses being referred to herein as "Termination Damages"), and (b) additional
damages (the "Liquidated Damages"), which, at the election of Landlord, shall be
either:
Landlord's Initials:_________ Tenant's Initials:_________
(i) an amount equal to the Rental which, but for termination
of this Lease, would have become due during the
remainder of the Term, less the amount of Rental, if
any, which Landlord shall receive during such period
from others to whom the Premises may be rented (other
than any Additional Rental received by Landlord as a
result of any failure of such other person to perform
any of its obligations to Landlord), in which case such
Liquidated Damages shall be computed and payable in
monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of
each calendar month following termination of the Lease
and continuing until the date on which the Term would
have expired but for such termination, and any suit or
action brought to collect any such Liquidated Damages
for any month shall not in any manner prejudice the
right of Landlord to collect any Liquidated Damages for
any subsequent month by a similar proceeding; or
(ii) an amount equal to the present worth (as of the date of
such termination) of Rental which, but for termination
of this Lease, would have become due during the
remainder of the Term, less the fair rental value of the
Premises, as determined by an independent real estate
appraiser named by Landlord, in which case such
Liquidated Damages shall be payable to Landlord in one
lump sum on demand and shall bear interest at the
Default Rate until paid. For purposes of this clause
(ii), "present worth" shall be computed by discounting
such amount to present worth at a discount rate equal to
one percentage point above the discount rate then in
effect at the Federal Reserve Bank nearest to the
location of the Building.
Termination Damages shall be due and payable immediately upon demand by Landlord
following any termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 23.2. Liquidated
Damages shall be due and payable at the times set forth herein.
If this Lease is terminated pursuant to Section 23.2, Landlord may relet the
Premises or any part thereof, alone or together with other premises, for such
term or terms (which may be greater or less than the period which otherwise
would have constituted the balance of the Term) and on such terms and conditions
(which may include concessions or free rent and alterations of the Premises) as
Landlord, in its sole discretion, may determine, but Landlord shall not be
liable for, nor shall Tenant's obligations hereunder be diminished by reason of,
any failure by Landlord to relet the Premises or any failure by Landlord to
collect any rent due upon such reletting.
Nothing contained in this Lease shall limit or prejudice the right of Landlord
to prove for and obtain, in proceedings for the termination of this Lease by
reason of bankruptcy or insolvency, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by
any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the
proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount be
greater, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damages referred to
above. The failure or refusal of Landlord to relet the Premises or any part or
parts thereof shall not release or affect Tenant's liability for damages.
24. Waiver by Landlord. Landlord's failure to insist upon strict
performance by Tenant of any obligation under this Lease, irrespective of the
length of time for which such failure continues, shall not be construed as a
waiver or relinquishment of Landlord's right to demand strict compliance in the
future. The receipt and acceptance by Landlord or Agent of rent with knowledge
of the breach of any obligation hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such
breach, and no waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed
to have been agreed upon unless expressed in a writing signed by the parties.
25. Liens. Tenant shall pay all sums of money due for labor, services,
materials, supplies, and equipment furnished at Tenant's request with respect to
the Leased Premises or any other part of the Building. If a mechanic's,
materialman's, or other lien (or notice of intent to file such a lien) is filed
or recorded against the Leased Premises, the Building, or Landlord's interest in
either, based upon labor, services, materials, supplies, equipment, or the like
ordered, or alleged to have been ordered by Tenant, Tenant shall cause such lien
to be discharged of record within ten (10) days after Tenant first has knowledge
of such lien. If such lien is not discharged within the ten (10) day period,
Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) cause such discharge by (i) payment
to the lienor, (ii) deposit of substitute security with a court having
jurisdiction, (iii) bonding, or (iv) such other means chosen by Landlord; and
the entire cost of the discharge shall be paid to Landlord by Tenant upon
demand. Tenant shall, upon request, furnish Landlord with contractors'
affidavits, full and final waivers of right to lien, and receipted bills
covering all labor and materials expended and used in or about the Leased
Premises by or at the request of Tenant.
Landlord's Initials:_________ Tenant's Initials:_________
26. Signage. Tenant shall not place or display (or cause to be placed or
displayed) on any exterior door, wall, or window of the Leased Premises any
sign, advertising matter, or other thing of any kind, and shall not place or
display any decoration, lettering, or advertising matter on the glass of any
window or door of the Leased Premises, without Landlord's prior written
approval, Tenant shall maintain such sign, decoration, lettering, advertising
matter, or other thing, as may be approved by Landlord, in good condition and
repair at all times. Tenant, at Tenant's expense, shall be permitted to place
exterior signage on the Mercury Boulevard monumental sign, subject to code
restrictions and design approval. Additionally, Tenant, at Tenant's expense,
shall be permitted to place its name on exterior in-ground, multi-tenant
identification signs, using consistent lettering, that Landlord may, from time
to time, erect outside the Building entrances, as well as such additional
interior and exterior signage as may be approved by Landlord. Tenant shall be
obligated to use the building standard suite entry signage as defined in Exhibit
D.
27. Exhibits, Addenda, Rules, and Regulations. All Exhibits, Addenda and
Rules and Regulations appended to this Lease are hereby incorporated into this
Lease, and Tenant shall comply with and observe the same. Tenant's failure to
comply with and observe the same shall constitute a breach of this Lease.
Landlord reserves the right to amend, supplement, or add to the Rules and
Regulations from time to time, provided that Landlord gives Tenant written
notice of all such changes and that such changes are applicable to other office
tenants, except Verizon, in the Building.
28. Surrender of Premises. On expiration or sooner termination of the
Term, Tenant shall surrender to Landlord the Leased Premises and all Tenant's
improvements and alterations, broom clean, in good order, condition, and repair,
except for ordinary wear and tear or condemnation or destruction of the Leased
Premises, and except for trade fixtures that Tenant has removed. Tenant shall
also deliver to Landlord all keys to the Leased Premises and the combination to
any safe, remove all its personal property, and make all repairs and
reimbursements required pursuant to this Lease; provided, however, Tenant may
not remove its personal property from the Leased Premises without Landlord's
prior written consent, if Tenant is in breach or default hereunder.
Landlord may elect to retain or dispose of in any manner any unapproved
alterations or Tenant's personal property that Tenant does not remove from the
Premises on expiration or termination of the Term. Title to any such unapproved
alterations or Tenant's personal property that Landlord elects to retain or
dispose of after expiration of the Term shall vest in Landlord. Tenant waives
all claims against Landlord for any damage to Tenant resulting from Landlord's
retention or disposition of any such unapproved alterations or personal
property. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for Landlord's costs of storing,
removing, and disposing of any unapproved alterations or Tenant's personal
property which Landlord does not elect to acquire.
29. Holdover. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and
against all costs, claims, loss, or liability resulting from delay by Tenant in
surrendering the Leased Premises, including, without limitation, any claims made
by any succeeding tenant founded on such delay. The parties recognize and agree
that the damage to Landlord resulting therefrom may be substantial, could exceed
the amount of the Minimum Rent payable under this Lease, and could be impossible
to measure accurately. Tenant therefore agrees that if Landlord suffers such
damages due to Tenant's failure to deliver possession of the Leased Premises
within twenty-four (24) hours after the date of the expiration or termination of
the Term, then Tenant shall pay, for each month and for each portion of any
month during which Tenant holds over in the Leased Premises after the expiration
or termination of the Term, 1.5 times the aggregate of that portion of the
Minimum Rent which was payable under this Lease during the last month of the
Term; however, Tenant may with the consent of the Landlord, holdover in the
Leased Premises for a term not to exceed ninety (90) days at 1.035 times the
aggregate of that portion of the Minimum Rent which was payable under this Lease
during the last month of the Term. If, at the expiration of the ninety (90) day
Landlord agreed holdover period, Tenant has not vacated the Leased Premises and
delivered possession to Landlord, or executed a new lease with Landlord, Tenant
shall pay 1.5 times the aggregate of that portion of the Minimum Rent which was
payable under the Lease during the last month of the Term. Nothing contained in
this Lease shall be deemed to permit Tenant to retain possession of the Leased
Premises after the expiration of the Term. The provisions of this Section shall
survive the expiration or termination of the Term.
Landlord's Initials:_________ Tenant's Initials:_________
30. Subordination and Attornment. This Lease is and shall be subject and
subordinate to any mortgage, deed of trust, underlying leasehold estate, or
other arrangement or right to possession that may now or hereafter be placed
upon or affect the Leased Premises or the Land of which the Leased Premises is a
part, or against any building hereafter placed upon the land of which the Leased
Premises is a part, to all advances to be made thereunder, to the interest and
principal payable thereon, and to all renewals, replacements, modifications,
consolidations, and extensions thereof. Upon Landlord's request Tenant shall
execute and deliver such documents, in such terms as Landlord reasonably
requests, to evidence the same. Upon request of any such mortgagee, Tenant shall
attorn to and acknowledge the foreclosure purchaser or purchasers as Landlord
hereunder. The form of the current lender's non-disturbance and attornment
agreement is attached as Exhibit E.
31. Estoppel Certificates. Upon Landlord's request, Tenant shall
execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord a written statement, addressed to
such person as Landlord may request, (a) certifying that this Lease is in full
force and effect and unmodified (or if modified, specifying the modifications),
and that Landlord is not in default under this Lease (or if a default is
alleged, specifying the default), (b) stating the date to which rent and any
other charges have been paid by Tenant and the address to which notices to
Tenant should be sent, and (c) certifying or stating such other matters as may
be required by Landlord. If Landlord has not received a response within 10 days
of any such request, such certificate shall be deemed acceptable to Tenant,
whereupon Landlord shall be appointed as Tenant's attorney-in-fact to execute
and deliver such certificate.
32. Future Refinancing. If all or part of the Building can be refinanced
or further financed only upon the basis of modifications of this Lease, Tenant
shall cooperate with Landlord in making such reasonable Lease modifications as
may be required; provided, however, Tenant shall not be required to make any
modifications that impair Tenant's use of the Leased Premises or relate to, or
increase Tenant's costs, liability, risk, amount of Minimum or Excess Rent, the
use of the Leased Premises, the duration of the Term, or the improvements, if
any, to be made by Landlord to the Leased Premises.
33. Right of Entry. Tenant shall allow Landlord or its representatives
to enter the Leased Premises at any reasonable hour to inspect the same, to make
any repairs or renovations deemed necessary or desirable, or to show the Leased
Premises to prospective tenants, purchasers, or lenders.
34. Force Majeure. Whenever Tenant or Landlord is required by the terms
of this Lease or by law to perform any contract, act, work, labor or services,
or to discharge any lien against the Leased Premises, or to perform and comply
with any laws, rules, orders, ordinances, or regulations, but is unable to
perform such act(s), then Tenant or Landlord, as appropriate, shall not be
deemed to be in default and the other party shall not enforce or exercise any of
its rights under this Lease, if and so long as nonperformance or default is
directly caused by strikes, non-availability of materials, war or national
defense preemptions, governmental restrictions, acts of God, acts of the other
party, or other similar causes beyond the reasonable control of the
non-performing party. Tenant and Landlord shall in any event pay any sum of
money required to discharge any lien incurred by them if at any time the Leased
Premises, or any part thereof, is in danger of being foreclosed, forfeited, or
lost by reason of such lien.
35. Limitation of Landlord's Liability. To the extent covered by
Landlord's insurance, Landlord shall be responsible or liable for latent
defects, deterioration, or change in the condition of the Building, the Common
Areas, or the Leased Premises, and for any damage resulting therefrom, whether
to person or property, or for loss to any property of Tenant as a result of
theft or misplacement, or for inconvenience, business interruption, or loss of
business of Tenant for any reason, provided, however, if Landlord fails to keep
in place any insurance required under this Lease, Landlord shall be fully liable
for, and shall indemnify Tenant against, all such claims. To the extent covered
by Tenant's insurance, Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from
and against any and all claims arising out of Tenant's use or occupancy of, or
from any other activity permitted or suffered by Tenant in or about the Leased
Premises, the Building, or the Common Areas; provided, however, if Tenant fails
to keep in place any insurance required under this Lease, Tenant shall be fully
liable for, and shall indemnify Landlord against, all such claims. Regardless of
any other provision in this Lease, if Landlord defaults in the performance of
any of its obligations, Tenant agrees to look solely to Landlord's insurance and
Landlord's interest in the Building or to the undistributed proceeds of any sale
of the Building for the satisfaction of any judgment obtained by Tenant as a
result of any default, and Tenant shall not otherwise seek any personal money
judgment against Landlord or any of its officers, directors,
Landlord's Initials:_________ Tenant's Initials:_________
stockholders, or partners. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit Tenant's
right, if any, to obtain equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or
specific performance.
36. Notices. Any notice, demand, consent, request, or other
communication required or permitted under this Lease shall be in writing and
shall be given by hand delivery or sent by the United States mail by certified
mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and addressed as indicated in
Section 1. Notice shall be deemed given when hand delivered or two days after
deposit with the United States Postal Service. The parties may change their
respective addresses by written notice to all other parties.
37. Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants that Tenant, on paying all rents
and performing all the obligations set forth in this Lease, shall have and enjoy
quiet and peaceable possession of the Leased Premises during the Term.
38. Entire Agreement. This Lease contains the entire agreement between
the parties with respect to the leasing of the Leased Premises and supersedes,
merges and replaces all prior written or oral agreements, negotiations, offers,
representations, and warranties with respect to the leasing of the Leased
Premises. This agreement cannot be altered, waived, or modified in any way,
including the provisions of this Section, except in a writing signed by the
parties. No course of dealing between the parties, no usage of trade, and no
parol or outside evidence of any nature shall be used to modify, interpret, or
supplement any provision of this Lease.
39. Survival. The representations, warranties, and agreements of the
parties contained in this Lease and in all other documents delivered in
connection with this Lease shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of
this Lease.
40. Severability. If any provision of this Lease is unenforceable, the
remainder of this Lease shall continue in effect and be construed as if the
unenforceable provision had not been contained in this Lease. Each provision of
this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by
law.
41. Successors and Assigns. This Lease shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the parties and their respective heirs, personal
representatives, successors, and assigns; provided, however, that this Section
shall not be construed to permit the assignment of this Lease except as
expressly provided.
42. Third Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Lease are intended
to benefit only the parties to this Lease. No person not a party to this Lease
shall be deemed a third party beneficiary of this Lease, nor shall any such
person be authorized or empowered to enforce the provisions of this Lease,
except to the extent such a person becomes a permitted assignee of one of the
parties.
43. Venue. Regardless of what venue would otherwise be permissive or
required, the parties stipulate that all actions arising under or affecting this
Lease shall be brought in the Circuit or General District Courts of the City of
Hampton, Virginia, the parties agreeing that such forum is mutually convenient
and bears a reasonable relationship to this Lease.
44. Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process. The parties
irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the state courts of the Commonwealth
of Virginia and to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia, for the purpose of any suit, action, or other
proceeding arising under or affecting this Lease.
45. Counting Days. In computing the number of days for purposes of this
Lease, all days shall be counted including weekends and holidays; provided,
however, that if the last day for taking any action under this Lease shall fall
on a Saturday, Sunday, or banking holiday, the time for taking such action shall
be extended to the next regular business day.
46. Number and Gender. When used in this Lease, the singular includes
the plural, the plural includes the singular, and the use of any gender includes
any other gender, as circumstances may require. The term "person" includes both
natural persons and entities.
Landlord's Initials:_________ Tenant's Initials:_________
47. Headings. The headings contained in this Lease are for the
convenience of the parties only, and are not a part of the substantive agreement
of the parties nor shall they affect the meaning or interpretation of any
provision of this Lease in any way.
48. Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in multiple counterparts.
When at least one copy of this Lease has been executed by each party to this
Lease, this Lease shall be in full force and effect, and all of such
counterparts shall be read together as a single agreement.
49. Recording. Upon request of either Tenant of Landlord, the parties
shall execute a short form of this Lease on a written document witnessed and
acknowledged in form capable of being recorded in the public records, which
short form Lease shall be recorded at the sole cost and expense of the party
requesting the same in the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court of the city

50. Reimbursement for Credit Report. Intentionally omitted
51. Agent's Commission.
(a) In consideration of Agent's services in procuring
this Lease, Landlord shall pay Agent a leasing commission per
separate agreement. Landlord and Tenant represent to each other
that they have not dealt with any broker in connection with this
Lease, other than Agent and CB Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, and that no broker
or other person is entitled to any commission or fee by reason
of the negotiation and execution of this Lease.
(b) Upon execution of this Lease by both parties, Lessor
shall pay to CB Xxxxxxx Xxxxx of Virginia, Inc., licensed real
estate broker, the sum of four percent (4%) of the aggregate

for brokerage services rendered by said broker to Lessor in this
transaction.
52. Agent Disclosure. The parties acknowledge that Divaris Real Estate,
Inc. is a licensed real estate brokerage firm and is acting in the capacity as
broker for the Building.
53. Trial by Jury. Landlord and Tenant each waives any right to trial by
jury of any issue(s) in a summary proceeding or any other suit, action,
proceeding or counterclaim at any time brought or instituted by or against the
other with respect to or involving the Leased Premises or any matter arising
under or connected with this Lease and the relationship of Landlord and Tenant
created by this Lease.
54. Right of First Refusal. Landlord grants to Tenant the right of first
refusal on the contiguous first floor space directly below the proposed
Premises, commonly known as Suites 173 - 185, and more specifically delineated
in Exhibit BA-1. The right of first refusal will apply to any functional part of
this area that Tenant chooses to lease. In the event that Landlord proposes, or
in good faith intends to propose to lease, some or the entire first right of
refusal space, Landlord shall provide written notice of the significant terms
and conditions of such proposal. Tenant shall have the first right to lease the
proposed space under the same terms and conditions by providing affirmative
written notice to Landlord within ten (10) days of receipt of Landlord's notice.
Tenant's affirmative response shall be binding upon Tenant. Failure by Tenant to
notify Landlord of its intentions within ten (10) days shall be deemed a waiver
of Tenant's right to lease such space.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF each corporate party hereto has caused this Lease to
be executed in its name and behalf by its duly authorized officer or agent; each
individual party hereto has hereunto set his hand, and each partnership party
hereto has caused this Lease to be executed in its name and behalf by the

WHEREAS, Tenant desires a recognition of and consent to the Lease terms
by Second Mortgagee and to be assured of continued occupancy of the Leased
Premises under the terms of the Lease in the event that Second Mortgagee

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the sum of One Dollar ($1.00) by
each party in hand, paid to the other, the receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, and in connection of the mutual promises, covenants and agreements
herein contained, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby,
promise, covenant and agree as follows:
1. Incorporation of Recitals. The Recitals portion of this
Agreement is hereby incorporated by this reference as fully as though it were
here rewritten.
2. Subordination of Lease. The Lease shall be subject and
subordinate to the lien, operation and effect of the Mortgage, the Second
Mortgage, the Assignment and the Second Assignment insofar as either of these
instruments affects the Facility or other real and personal property owned by
the Landlord of which the Leased Premises is a part, and to all renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof, to the full
extent of the principal sum secured thereby and interest thereon, with the same
force and effect as if the Mortgage, the Second Mortgage, the Assignment and the
Second Assignment had been executed, delivered, and duly recorded in the Public
Records, prior to the execution and delivery of the Lease. Mortgagee and Second
Mortgagee hereby consent to the terms and provisions of the Lease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee consent to the
removal by Tenant of its Personal Property on the Leased Premises in accordance
with the terms of the Lease.
3. Non-Disturbance of Tenant. In the event that Mortgagee and
Second Mortgagee, or any purchaser at foreclosure sale or any successor or
assign (such purchaser, successor or assign, "Successor") takes possession of
the Leased Premises as a mortgagee-in-possession, by foreclosure of the Mortgage
or the Second Mortgage, by acquisition of title in lieu of foreclosure, or
pursuant to the Assignment or the Second Assignment, Mortgagee and Second
Mortgagee (and their Successors) agree not to disturb Tenant's right to
possession of the Leased Premises so long as Tenant is not then in default under
any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease, beyond any applicable
cure period.
2
4. Attornment to Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee.
(a) In the event that Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee (or
their Successors) succeeds to the interest of Landlord under the Lease,
Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee (or their Successors) and Tenant hereby agree to
be bound to one another under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the
Lease. Accordingly, from and after such event, Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee
(or their Successors) and Tenant shall have the same remedies against one
another for the breach of any agreement contained in the Lease as Tenant and
Landlord had before Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee (or their Successors)
succeeded to the interest of Landlord, provided, however, Mortgagee and Second
Mortgagee (or their Successors) shall not be: (i) bound by any rent, additional
rent or other sum which Tenant might have paid for more than one (1) month in
advance to Landlord of its due date under the Lease; (ii) liable for any act or
omission of Landlord unless Tenant shall have given notice (pursuant to
Paragraph 6(b) hereof) of such act or omission to the party who was then holder
of the Mortgage and the Second Mortgage (whether or not such holder elected to
cure or remedy such act or omission); (iii) liable for the return of any
security deposits which Tenant may have paid to any prior landlord (including
Landlord), unless such deposit is available to the party who was the holder of
the Mortgage or the Second Mortgage at the time of a foreclosure; (iv) subject
to any offset (except those expressly prohibited under the Lease) or defense or
claims in the nature of a counterclaim which Tenant might have against Landlord
unless such offset or defense is due to a default by Landlord, and Mortgagee and
Second Mortgagee have been given proper notice of such default and failed to
cure such default; (v) bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease made
without the written consent of the Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee (or their
Successors) other than an amendment or modification of the Lease which does not:
(w) increase or decrease the term of the Lease; (x) decreases the rent; (y)
materially increase Landlord's or Tenant's rights or obligation thereunder; or
(z) material decrease Tenant's or Landlord's rights or obligations thereunder;
and (vi) liable to Tenant for the payment of money to satisfy a judgment in the
event of any default or breach with respect to any of the terms, covenants and
conditions of the Lease to be observed and/or performed by the Mortgagee and
Second Mortgagee if Mortgagee or Second Mortgagee should succeed to the position
of the Landlord under the Lease, beyond the estate of the Mortgagee and Second
Mortgagee in the Facility and the rents and other income therefrom, it being the
intention of this Agreement that no asset of Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee
except any interest it may have in the Facility, shall be subject to levy,
execution or other procedures for the satisfaction of any money judgment of
Tenant.
(b) This attornment shall be effective and self-operative
without the execution of any further instrument by any of the parties hereto
immediately upon the Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee or any purchaser at a
foreclosure sale or any successor or assign succeeding to the interest of the
Landlord under the Lease, and the respective rights and obligations of Tenant
and Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee upon such attornment, to the extent of the
then remaining balance of the term of the Lease and any extension or renewal
permitted thereby, shall be and are the same as are now set forth therein.
5. Attornment to New Owner. In the event that any one else
acquires title to or the right to possession of the Lease Premises upon the
foreclosure of the Mortgage or the Second
3
Mortgage, or upon the sale of the Facility or any part thereof by Mortgagee and
Second Mortgagee (or their Successors) after foreclosure or acquisition of title
in lieu thereof or otherwise, Tenant agrees not to seek to terminate the Lease
by reason thereof, but shall remain bound unto the new owner, and any liability
of Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee to Tenant under the Lease or hereunder
accruing after the transfer shall terminate upon transfer of title to the
Facility to such new owner.
6. Representations and Covenants by Both Landlord and Tenant.
(a) Landlord and Tenant represent and warrant to the
Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee that the Lease sets forth the all agreements of
Landlord and Tenant with respect to the Leased Premises. The Lease has not been
modified or amended and is in full force and effect on the date hereof.
(b) Landlord and Tenant covenant and agree with the
Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee that Landlord and Tenant will send to Mortgagee
and Second Mortgagee copies of notices of default required to be given by either
of them under the Lease or received by either of them with respect to the Leased
Premises, which shall be sent to Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee at the same time
as such statement or notice is sent by that party to the other.
7. Tenant Representations and Covenants. Tenant hereby
warrants and represents, covenants and agrees to and with Mortgagee and Second
Mortgagee that:
(a) Tenant will not seek to terminate the Lease by reason
of any default by the Landlord until Tenant shall have given written notice of
such default to the Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee (or their Successors), and
until in the event of (i) a default which (A) adversely affects in any material
respect the interior of the Lease Premises or Tenant's use thereof, or (B)
interferes in any material respect with vehicular or pedestrian access to the
Leased Premises or the Facility or the parking area serving the Leased Premises,
a period of thirty (30) days shall have elapsed; and (ii) any other default by
Landlord, a period of forty (40) days shall have elapsed, the Mortgagee and
Second Mortgagee (or their Successors) shall have the right, but not the
obligation to remedy such default; provided, however, that if the default does
not involve the payment of money from Landlord to Tenant and is of such a nature
that it could not be reasonably remedied within such 30-day or 40-day period, as
the case may be, or the nature of the default or the requirements of local law
require the Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee (or their Successors) to appoint a
receiver or to foreclose on or commence legal proceedings to recover possession
of the Facility in order to effect such remedy and such legal proceedings and
consequent remedy cannot reasonably be achieved within the applicable 30-day or
40-day period, then the Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee (or their Successors)
shall have such further time as is reasonable under the circumstances to effect
such remedy; provided, however, that the Mortgagee (or their Successors) shall
notify Tenant within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Tenant's notice of the
intention of the Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee (or their Successors) to effect
such remedy; and provided, further, that the Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee (or
their Successors) promptly institute legal proceedings to appoint a receiver for
the Facility to foreclosure on or recover possession of the Facility within the
applicable 30-day or 40-day
4
period and thereafter prosecutes said proceedings and remedy with due diligence
and continuity to completion.
(b) Tenant shall certify in writing to Mortgagee and
Second Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days in connection with any proposed
assignment of the Mortgage, the Second Mortgage, the Assignment or the Second
Assignment, whether or not, to Tenant's knowledge, any default on the part of
Landlord then exists under the Lease or whether any event has occurred which,
but for the passage of time, the giving of notice or both, would constitute a
default under the Lease.
(c) Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee (or their Successors)
and assigns shall be named as an additional insured, as its interest may appear,
in any policies of insurance now or hereafter required under the Lease.
(d) Upon receipt by Tenant from Mortgagee and Second
Mortgagee of notice of any default under the Mortgage, the Second Mortgage, the
Assignment or the Second Assignment, Tenant shall pay all rents and other sums
due under the Lease directly to Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee, Landlord
agreeing that any such payment to Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee will be an
absolute release to Tenant of any obligation to pay the same sum to Landlord.
(e) All of Landlord's right, title and interest as lessor
under the Lease is being duly assigned to Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee
pursuant to the terms of the Assignment, the Second Assignment and pursuant to
the terms thereof all rental payments under the Lease shall continue to be paid
to Landlord in accordance with the terms of the Lease unless and until Tenant is
otherwise notified in writing by Mortgagee and Second Mortgagee.
8. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure

hereto.
