That for and in consideration of the rent hereinafter reserved, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby rents from Landlord, the premises described in Section 1, upon the following terms, covenants and conditions:
1.
Premises
The premises leased hereby (the "Premises") consist of 22,410 square feet, more or less, of space, as shown on Exhibit A attached hereto, contained within the warehouse office facility containing 84,760 square feet (the "Building") located on that certain parcel of land known as Xxx 0, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx (the “Land”) with an address of 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000.

2.
Term
The term of this Lease (the "Term") shall begin on the date (the “Commencement Date”) that Landlord’s Work is substantially complete, subject only to punch list and other minor or insubstantial items, as certified by Landlord’s architect, and shall continue for a period of eighty-seven (87) months after the first day of the first full calendar month following the month in which the Commencement Date occurs (unless the Commencement Date occurs on the first day of a calendar month, in which case the Term shall continue for a period of eighty-seven (87) months after the Commencement Date).
The Commencement Date is anticipated by Landlord and Tenant to be not more than one-hundred seventy-five (175) days following the later of (a) the date of this Lease, or (b) the date Landlord and Tenant confirm, in writing, their approval of the Space Plan, and associated mechanical, plumbing and electric plans, for the Premises, as hereinafter provided in Section 3.

3.
Landlord's Construction
A.
Landlord shall, at its expense, prepare the Premises (“Landlord’s Work) for Tenant’s use, in accordance with working plans and specifications for Landlord’s Work to be prepared by Landlord consistent with 7,250 square feet of standard office build-out and 15,160 square feet of standard warehouse build-out (“Landlord’s Improvements”) attached hereto as Exhibit B and Exhibit D and approved by Tenant, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Upon approval by the parties of the scope of Landlord’s Improvements, Landlord shall apply for all required building and other governmental permits for Landlord’s Work. Upon receipt of the requisite permits for Landlord’s Work, Landlord shall commence and thereafter diligently proceed with the completion of Landlord’s Work.
B.
Landlord shall provide to Tenant an allowance of $221,400.00 towards Landlord’s Improvements. The amount by which the cost of Landlord’s Improvements exceeds $221,400.00 shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon billing thereof by Landlord to Tenant with 50% due upon initial billing and the balance due within five (5) business days after Substantial Completion of Landlord’s Improvements. The permitting of racking, warehouse equipment, data/security, systems furniture, and other items outside of Landlord’s scope of work can delay issuance by Xxxx Arundel County of a Certificate of Occupancy. Therefore, “Substantial Completion” herein is defined as completion of Landlord’s work as evidenced by certification of Substantial Completion by Landlord’s Architect. In no event will Landlord be responsible for any costs of Landlord’s Improvements over $400,000.00 (or a total additional cost of $178,600.00 to Landlord above the Tenant allowance). Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Tenant to “value engineer” Landlord’s Improvements so as to mitigate the total cost of Landlord’s Improvements.
C.
Landlord and Tenant shall diligently and in good faith pursue the following schedule for the completion of Landlord’s Work:
a.
Within fifty-six (56) days from the date of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall approve Landlord’s Improvements, and Landlord shall provide Tenant with an initial cost estimate and shall apply for the requisite building and other governmental permits for the performance of Landlord’s Work; and
b.
Within seventy-five (75) days from the date of execution of this Lease a firm cost for buildout will be approved by both parties prior to starting construction and prior to the drawings being approved by Xxxx Arundel County, the governing agency. A 2% allowance will be allocated for unknown items. Costs incurred above the allowance will be allocated for unknown
2
items (e.g., material escalations; missed items not included in the drawings but incurred in the field; additional touch-up and punch list items; additional required work, labor, overtime, and supervision; BGE gas/electric service fee use and unit cost escalations during the use of temporary power). Costs incurred above the 2% allowance will be paid by Landlord, except for those items that are directly related to revisions caused by Xxxx Arundel County or caused by Tenant requesting changes and additions to the scope of work.
c.
Within one hundred seventy-five (175) days from the date of this Lease, Landlord shall complete, subject only to punch list and other minor or insubstantial items, Landlord’s Work
D.
Promptly upon completion of Landlord’s Improvements, Landlord shall obtain for Tenant (a) a certificate of completion confirming that Landlord’s Improvements complies with the Covenants, and (b) a certificate of occupancy for the Building from Xxxx Arundel County and the municipality, if applicable, subject to delays, acts or omissions of Tenant or its contractors in performing any work which is not part of Landlord’s Improvements, but which is a requirement or condition for the issuance of a certificate of occupancy.
E.
Promptly upon the issuance by Xxxx Arundel County of a certificate of occupancy for the Building, Tenant shall apply for and diligently seek to obtain from Xxxx Arundel County a zoning certificate of use for the Building, and upon issuance thereof, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of such zoning certificate of use. Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant in obtaining such zoning certificate of use.
F.
Provided Tenant approves all submittals, specifications, work orders, change orders, estimates and drawings within two (2) business days after Landlord submits such to Tenant, Landlord agrees if Landlord fails to complete Landlord’s Improvements subject only to punch list and other minor insubstantial items, within one hundred seventy-five (175) days following the initial Plan Approval Date, and the delay by Landlord is due to no fault of Tenant, then Landlord shall pay Tenant one (1) day of minimum rent payable hereunder for each one (1) day of delay beyond such one hundred seventy-five (175) days.
G.
In the event of default by Tenant under this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount, in addition to any other damages to which Landlord may be entitled, equal to $221,400 multiplied by a fraction of the numerator of which is the number of months which are remaining in the Term prior to the default and the denominator of which is 84.
H.
Upon Tenant’s request, Landlord will reasonable cooperate in providing Tenant limited early access to the warehouse portion only of the Premises for erection of racking and storage of materials therein, provided Tenant obtains permits for all such activities, indemnifies Landlord for any and all claims that may arise from such erection and material storage, and Tenant agrees any delays in obtainment of a Use and Occupancy permit by Landlord for the Premises due directly or indirectly from this early access by Tenant shall not preclude Tenant from execution of the Commencement Agreement inclusive of all the terms and considerations arising therefrom.

4.
Tenant's Construction
Any work not specifically enumerated in Landlord’s Work in accordance with Landlord’s Improvements and required for Tenant's use of the Premises shall be performed by Tenant at its sole cost and expense which additional work shall only be commenced following submission of a written request to Landlord (including a copy of plans and specifications) and receipt of written approval from Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Whenever, under the terms of this Lease, any sum of money is required to be paid by Tenant in addition to the rent herein reserved, whether such sum is designated as "additional rent", it shall, nevertheless, be deemed to be additional rent and shall be collectible as rent.

If any installment of rent or other sum payable hereunder is not received by Landlord within five (5) business days of the due date and within five (5) business days after written notice to Tenant of the delinquency, the rent or other sum shall be accompanied by a late charge of 10% of the total amount due.

Security Deposit
Tenant shall pay to Landlord a security deposit (the “Security Deposit”) in the amount of $175,000.00 payable in three incremental installments commencing with a first payment in the amount of $15,000.00 upon Tenant’s execution of this Lease. A second installment shall be due from Tenant in the amount of $60,000.00 within five (5) business days after Tenant approves the cost of build-out pursuant to Section 3C (b) herein. The final installment of the Security Deposit in the amount of $100,000.00 shall be due and payable by Tenant at the date of Landlord’s granting of early access to the warehouse portion only of the Premises to the Tenant pursuant to Section 3H herein. If Tenant is, due to unforeseen circumstances, unable to gain early access to the warehouse pursuant to Section 3H, the final installment of Security Deposit in the amount of $100,000.00 shall be due within five (5) business days after the date of Tenant occupancy as evidenced by Tenant’s execution of the Commencement Agreement pursuant to Section 2 herein. Such payments shall be made in immediately available funds, which shall be held by Landlord without liability for interest and as security for the performance by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease. The Security Deposit is not advance payment of Rent or Additional Rent or a measure or limit of Landlord’s damages upon an event of default under Section 20 of this Lease. Landlord shall be entitled to commingle the Security Deposit with Landlord’s other funds. Landlord may, from time to time and without prejudice to any other remedy, use all or part of the Security Deposit to perform any obligation which Tenant was obligated, but failed, to perform hereunder. Tenant waives the provisions of any law, now or hereafter enforced, which provide that Landlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by Tenant or to clean the Premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums reasonably necessary to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage caused by the acts or omissions of Tenant or anyone acting by, through or under Tenant. Following any such application of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the amount so applied in order to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Within thirty (30) days after the Term ends, provided Tenant has performed all of its obligations hereunder, Landlord shall return to Tenant the balance of the Security Deposit not applied to satisfy Tenant’s obligations. If Landlord transfers its interest in the Premises, then Landlord may assign the Security Deposit to the transferee and Landlord thereafter shall have no further liability for the return of the Security Deposit. The liability for the return of the Security Deposit be assumed by any transferee of Landlord’s interest under this Lease.

Upon completion of the twenty-fourth (24th) full month of the Term pursuant to Section 2 of this Lease, and provided Tenant has not defaulted in any of its rental payment obligations during the prior twenty-four (24) month period, upon Tenant’s written request, Landlord shall consent to the further reduction of the Security Deposit to $15,000, if Landlord reasonably determines that such reduction is appropriate based upon Tenant’s financial condition at that time, in which event $72,500 of the Security Deposit shall be promptly returned to Tenant.

17.
Casualty Insurance; Damage or Destruction
Landlord shall maintain “Causes of Loss-Special Form” casualty insurance on the Premises for the full replacement cost thereof, including rent interruption insurance on the Premises in an amount equal to at least six months of gross rent revenues, containing a waiver of subrogation for the benefit of Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within thirty (30) days after Landlord's written request, Tenant’s pro-rata share of the annual cost of any insurance premiums for this insurance. The parties hereby agree that Tenant’s pro-rate share of the cost of such insurance is 26.4%.
Tenant shall, at its expense, maintain at least standard fire and extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, and sprinkler damage insurance on its trade fixtures, equipment and other personal property in the Premises, existing Landlord-provided improvements to the Premises, on the leasehold improvements to the Premises, and all other improvements provided by the Tenant or Landlord to the Premises hereafter for their full replacement cost, containing a waiver of subrogation for the benefit of Landlord. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any damage to any property of Tenant from any cause, unless it is due to Landlord's willful misconduct, gross negligence, or failure to comply with terms of the Lease. Certificates evidencing the insurance required hereby, naming Landlord as an additional insured, shall be delivered to Landlord at the beginning of the Term and thirty (30) days prior to the time of any renewal or replacement of such insurance.
If the Premises, or any part of the Building, are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty to an extent which can reasonably be expected to be fully repairable within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the casualty, Landlord shall repair, restore, rebuild and replace the damaged or destroyed part, and complete the same as soon as reasonably possible, subject to delays beyond its reasonable control, to the condition they were in prior to the damage or destruction, except for changes in design or materials as may then be required by law or prudent under the circumstances. If the Premises are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty so as to render it wholly or substantially untenable, and to an extent which can not reasonably be expected to be fully repairable within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the casualty (as determined by an independent general contractor or qualified architect selected and approved by both Landlord and Tenant), either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by written notice given to the other party within thirty (30) days of the date of the casualty.
If Landlord elects to repair and restore, there shall be an abatement of rent and additional rent until the Premises are substantially restored to their prior condition. If either party terminates this Lease as above provided, rent and additional rent shall be paid through the date of the casualty. If Landlord fails to substantially restore the Premises within six (6) months after the date of casualty, Tenant may elect to terminate the remainder of its Lease Term if such substantial restoration is not completed by Landlord after not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall diligently pursue repair or restoration in a timely manner.
11
Landlord and Tenant shall each insure their properties as herein required, and neither shall be responsible to the other for any damage to its property from any cause whatsoever. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive and release each other from and against any and all rights of recovery, claims or causes of action, against the other, its agents, officers, contractors, or employees, for any loss or damage that may occur to the Premises, or any part thereof, or any personal property of such party therein, by reason of fire, the elements, or any other cause which could be insured against under the terms of any of the insurance policies required to be maintained by the respective parties under this Section 18, regardless of cause or origin, including the negligence of the other party hereto, its agents, officers, contractors, or employees, and covenants that no insurer shall hold any right of subrogation against the other party. Landlord and Tenant each hereby acknowledge and agree it is not the intention of the parties that they be relieved from liability for negligence contrary to any statute or public policy of the State of Maryland, but rather that each avail itself of insurance coverage without subjecting the other to liability for losses that could have been insured, and without subjecting the other to subrogation claims of any insurer, and each party hereby agrees that the availability of insurance coverage is a fair and adequate alternative to pursuing claims for negligence against each other, and, therefore, agree that a mutual waiver of such claims is in the best interests of both parties.
18.
Eminent Domain
If the Premises, or any part thereof, are condemned under the power of eminent domain, or sold by Landlord to a condemning authority under threat of condemnation, this Lease shall terminate as to the part condemned on the date title or possession vests in the condemning authority, whichever is first.
If any condemning authority notifies Landlord of a proposed condemnation of any part of the Premises, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of the proposed condemnation together with whatever plats and data are furnished to Landlord by the condemnor concerning the extent of the proposed condemnation. Tenant shall have thirty (30) days after the date of such notice in which to elect to cancel this Lease effective upon consummation of the condemnation. If Tenant gives Landlord written notice of such election within thirty (30) days, and if the proposed condemnation is consummated, this Lease shall terminate entirely on the same date that this Lease terminates as to the condemned portion of the Premises (or as to the entire Premises if the condemnation will render the Premises unsuitable for the normal conduct of Tenant’s business). If Tenant does not make a timely election to cancel this Lease, and the condemnation is consummated, Landlord may, at its sole discretion, elect to diligently pursue restoration of the remaining Premises as a complete architectural unit; and the rent shall thereafter be reduced proportionately to the reduction in the area of the Premises.
In the event of a condemnation, the entire award shall belong to Landlord and Tenant shall not be entitled to share in any part of the condemnation award (including consequential damages). Tenant shall, however, be entitled to retain any separate award obtained from the condemning authority for moving and relocation expenses and loss of trade fixtures, equipment and other personal property, to the extent compensable without diminution of Landlord's award.

(i)
The filing of a petition by or against Tenant for adjudication as a bankrupt under the Bankruptcy Code, as now or hereafter amended or supplemented, or for a reorganization within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code, or for an arrangement within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code, or the commencement of any action or proceeding for the dissolution or liquidation of Tenant, whether instituted by or against Tenant, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of the property of Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall grant Tenant a sixty day period after any involuntary bankruptcy filing to vacate said filing, or to seek dismissal of the appointment of a receiver or trustee, provided, Tenant is not past due in its rental obligations and all post filing rents are paid to Landlord in a prompt manner;
(ii)
The making by Tenant of an assignment for the benefit of creditors.
(iii)
Failure of Tenant to pay, within five (5) days after written notice from Landlord, the rent or additional rent herein reserved, or any other sum payable by Tenant.
(iv)
A default by Tenant in the performance of any other material term, covenant, agreement or condition of this Lease on the part of Tenant to be performed for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice thereof, unless such performance shall reasonably require a longer period in which case Tenant shall not be deemed in default if Tenant commences the required performance promptly and thereafter pursues and completes such action diligently and expeditiously.
(b)
In the event of a default by Tenant as set forth above, which has not been cured, Landlord may, at any time thereafter, at its election, in addition and without prejudice to any and all other remedies available to Landlord as a result of such default, terminate this Lease and Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, and thereafter, by any lawful means, take possession of the Premises, and remove Tenant, any occupants and any property there from, without being guilty of or liable for trespass or damages and without relinquishing any rights of Landlord against Tenant.
(c)
If this Lease is terminated pursuant to the above, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for rent and additional rent to the date of termination together with (1) all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees for any proceedings which may be necessary for Landlord to recover possession of the Premises, and (2) damages to be calculated and payable utilizing either of the two options (at Landlord's sole discretion) as follows:
(i)
The monthly rent and additional rent payable by Tenant hereunder, which shall be payable when due, less the rent directly attributable to the existing Premises (net of attorneys’ fees, leasing commissions, tenant improvement and remodeling costs, and other related re-leasing incurred by Landlord expenses) if any, received by Landlord from others to whom the Premises may be rented on such terms and conditions and at such rentals as Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, exercised in objective good faith, shall deem proper. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to excess rent, if any, that Landlord may receive from any substitute tenant.
13
(ii)
An amount equal to the sum of (a) the present value (as of the date of Tenant's default) using an interest rate of six percent (6%) on all rent and additional rent which would have become due during the remainder of the Term of this Lease, minus (b) the present value (at the same rate) of the fair rental value of the Premises for the remainder of the Term of this Lease. Said amount shall constitute liquidated damages and shall be payable to Landlord in one lump sum on demand.
(d)
No act or thing done by Landlord shall be deemed to be an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, unless Landlord executes a written release of Tenant. Tenant’s liability hereunder shall not be terminated by execution of a new lease of the Premises by Landlord. The failure by Landlord to insist upon the performance of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon an unremedied breach thereof, or the acceptance of full or partial rent during the continuance of any unremedied breach, shall not constitute a waiver of the performance of such term, covenant or condition. No term, covenant or condition of this Lease to be performed or complied with by Tenant, and no unremedied breach thereof, shall be deemed waived, altered or modified except by a written instrument executed by Landlord. The waiver of any breach shall not affect or alter this Lease, but each and every term, covenant and condition shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach thereof. Upon any default, Tenant waives all legal, equitable and/or statutory rights to redeem its interest under this Lease.
(e)
In addition to the above, if Tenant defaults in the performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition to be performed under this Lease, and Tenant fails to materially pursue rectification of said default within thirty (30) days after written notice to Tenant of said default by Landlord, Landlord may take any necessary action to rectify the default on Tenant's behalf. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord reasonably deems the default of a nature requiring immediate resolution, it may proceed immediately to rectify said default. All money advanced and costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in rectifying defaults, together with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, shall be repaid by Tenant to Landlord promptly upon demand.
(f)
Each right and remedy of Landlord provided for in this Lease shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right or remedy provided for herein or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the rights or remedies provided for in this Lease, or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, or by statute or otherwise, shall not be construed as an election of remedies so as to preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other right or remedy for such breach. If Landlord obtains a judgment against Tenant arising out of any default by Tenant under this Lease, then Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable attorney's fees and other expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith.
