The foregoing shall apply to increases in real estate taxes assessed against the land or Building generally, and not resulting from improvements placed thereon by Tenant. In the event of any increases in real estate taxes resulting from improvements, alterations or additions made by Tenant, Tenant shall pay the entire amount of said increase. “Taxes” as used herein shall include, but not by way of limitation, all paving taxes, special paving taxes, Metropolitan District Charges, and any and all other benefits or assessments which may be levied on the Property or the Building, but shall not include any income tax on the income or rent payable hereunder. “Taxes” as used herein shall also include all legal fees and costs incurred by Landlord in contesting any proposed tax assessment increase or obtaining any reduction in assessment, provided that any such fees and costs shall only be included in Operating Costs if, as the result of such contest, Tenant receives the benefit of a reduction in its pro rata share of its Tax liability hereunder. If Landlord receives any refund of Taxes as a result of any such contest, Tenant shall be entitled to a credit equal to its proportionate share thereof.
5
(b) If, during any annual period of the term, Operating Costs exceed those costs incurred during the calendar year 2004, Tenant shall pay Landlord, as additional rent, its proportionate share thereof, which shall be the same proportion which the total rentable area of the Premises (i.e., the Branch Banking Suite and the Corporate Office Suite) bears to the total rentable area of the Building. One hundred percent (100%) of all Operating Costs with respect to the Drive-Through Building shall be paid by Tenant, including electricity which will be sub-metered, insurance premiums and other utilities.

Landlord shall not be required to furnish any services for the Drive-Through Building, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant shall be responsible for all janitorial services in connection therewith.
(c) Landlord shall notify Tenant from time to time of the amount which Landlord estimates will be the amount payable by Tenant in accordance with paragraph (b), above, and Tenant shall pay such amounts to Landlord in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each month, simultaneously with payments of the rent reserved pursuant to Section 1 hereof. Within a reasonable period of time following the end of each annual period of the term, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a statement showing the actual amounts incurred by Landlord as set forth in paragraph (b), the amount theretofore paid by Tenant, and the amount of the resulting balance due thereon, or overpayment thereof, as the case may be.

In the event Tenant has made any overpayment, such overpayment shall be credited by Landlord against the next installment or installments of rent which are due and payable hereunder, or if the term of this Lease has expired, such overpayment shall be refunded by Landlord to Tenant, without interest, within five (5) days after the date of such statement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that nothing contained in the preceding sentence shall prohibit or limit Tenant’s ability to operate as a commercial bank. Tenant will, at Tenant’s sole expense, but only to the extent it does not interfere with Tenant’s operation as a commercial bank, take all such actions and make any installations or alterations as may be necessary to obtain the greatest possible reduction in the insurance rates for the Premises and the Building caused by the occupancy of Tenant, the nature of the business carried on by Tenant in the Premises, or otherwise resulting from any act of Tenant, its agents, servants, employees or customers, or anything done or suffered to be done by Tenant, its agents, servants, employees or customers, or anything done or suffered to be done by Tenants, its agents, servants, employees or customers.
8. Insurance - Indemnity.
(a) Tenant covenants and agrees that from and after the date of delivery of the Premises from Landlord to Tenant, Tenant will carry and maintain, at its sole cost and expense and in the amounts specified and in the form hereinafter provided, the following types of insurance:
(i) Public Liability and Property Damage. General Public Liability Insurance covering the Premises and Tenant’s use thereof against claims for personal injury or death and property damage occurring upon, in or about the Premises, such insurance to afford protection to the limit of not less than $2,000,000 arising out of any one occurrence, and against property damage to afford protection to the limit of not less than $2,000,000; or such insurance may be for a combined single limit of $2,000,000 per occurrence. The insurance coverage required under this Section 8(a)(i) shall, in addition, extend to any liability of Tenant arising out of Tenant’s indemnities hereinafter provided, as well as Independent Contractors’ Liability, Products/Completed Operations Liability, Personal Injury Liability and Contractual Liability.
(ii) Boilers. If Tenant’s Premises shall contain a boiler or other pressure vessel, Tenant shall carry Boiler and Machinery Insurance with a direct damage limit not less than the full value of the Building.

(iii) Tenant Improvements and Property. Insurance covering all leasehold improvements and other improvements installed by Tenant upon the Premises, trade fixtures and personal property from time to time in, on or upon the Premises and any alterations, improvements, additions or changes made by Tenant thereto in an amount not less than one hundred percent (100%) of their full replacement cost from time to time during the Lease term, providing protection against perils included within the standard Maryland form of fire and extended coverage insurance policy, together with insurance against sprinkler leakage or other sprinkler damage, vandalism and malicious mischief. Any policy proceeds from such insurance, so long as this Lease shall remain in effect, shall be held in trust by Tenant’s insurance company first for the repair, reconstruction, restoration or replacement of the property damaged or destroyed.
7
(iv) Plate Glass. Plate glass insurance covering all plate glass in the Premises. Tenant shall be and remain liable for the repair and restoration of all such plate glass.
Tenant further covenants and agrees to carry and maintain, at all times during the term of this Lease, the aforegoing types of insurance (and any other types of insurance) in amounts at least equal to the minimum amounts of such insurance coverages commonly required of Tenants in comparable office buildings in the are&
(b) All policies of insurance to be provided by Tenant shall be issued in form acceptable to Landlord by insurance companies with general policyholder’s rating of not less than A and a financial rating of AAA as rated in the most current available “Best’s” Insurance Reports, and qualified to do business in Maryland. Each such policy shall be issued in the names of Landlord and Tenant. Said policies shall be for the mutual and joint benefit and protection of each of said parties and executed copies of each such policy of insurance or a certificate thereof shall be delivered to Landlord within ten (10) days after delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant and thereafter at least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of each such policy. As often as any such policy shall expire or terminate, renewal or additional policies shall be procured and maintained by Tenant in like manner and to like extent. All such policies of insurance shall contain a provision that the company writing said policy will give to Landlord at least thirty (30) days’ notice in writing in advance of any cancellations, or lapse, or the effective date of any reduction in the amounts of insurance. In the event Tenant shall fail to promptly furnish any insurance herein required, Landlord may affect the same for a period not exceeding one (1) year and Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord upon demand, as additional rent, the premium so paid by Landlord. If, upon Tenant’s failure, rather than purchase separate insurance coverage, Landlord chooses to include Tenant’s coverage under Landlord’s insurance policies, then Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord upon demand, as additional rent, the greater of the increase in Landlord’s premium resulting therefrom or One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00). All such public liability, property damage and other casualty policies shall be written as primary policies which do not contribute to and are not in excess of coverage which Landlord may carry. All such public liability and property damage policies shall contain a provision that Landlord shall nevertheless be entitled to recover under said policies for any loss occasioned to it, its servants, agents and employees by reason of negligence of Tenant or any other named assured. Any insurance provided for may be affected by a policy or policies of blanket insurance, covering additional items or locations; provided, however that (i) Landlord shall be named as an additional insured thereunder as its interests may appear; (ii) the coverage afforded Landlord will not :be reduced or diminished by reason of the use of such blanket policy of insurance; (iii) any such policy or policies (except any covering the risks referred to in paragraph (a)(i) above), shall specify therein (or Tenant shall furnish Landlord with a written statement from the insurers under such policy specifying) the amount of the total insurance allocated to the “Tenant Improvements and Property” more specifically detailed in paragraph (iii), above; and (iv) the requirements set forth herein are otherwise satisfied. Any insurance policies herein required to be procured by Tenants shall contain an express waiver of any right of subrogation by the insurance company against the Landlord, unless Tenant’s insurer charges a premium for such waiver of subrogation in excess of the standard premium which would have been charged if no such waiver were included. If at any time Tenant does not obtain the waiver because of the increased premium, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of its inability to obtain the waiver because of such increased premium charge.
8
(c) Tenant shall, and does hereby, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and any other parties in interest set forth in paragraph (b), above, from and against any and all liabilities, fines, claims, damages and actions, costs and expenses of any kind or nature (including attorneys’ fees) and of anyone whatsoever (i) relating to or arising from the use and occupancy of the Premises; (ii) due to or arising out of any mechanic’s lien filed against the Premises, the Building, or any part thereof, for labor performed or for materials furnished or claimed to be furnished to Tenant at Tenant’s request (such labor and materials shall not include the labor and materials to be performed by Landlord in accordance with Exhibit A, B and C), or (iii) due to or arising out of any breach, violation or nonperformance of any covenant, condition or agreement in this Lease set forth and contained on the part of Tenant to be fulfilled, kept, observed or performed, unless such damage or injury shall be occasioned by the gross negligence or willful act or omission of the Landlord, in which event, Landlord shall indemnify and hold harmless Tenant to the extent of such negligence or willful act or omission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall at all times remain liable for, and indemnify and hold harmless Landlord as aforesaid against, any damage or injury arising from perils against which Tenant is required by this Lease to insure, regardless of the negligence or willful acts or omissions of others.
9. Alterations.
Tenant shall not make any alterations to the Premises, or any part thereof, without prior written consent of Landlord in each instance first had and obtained. If Tenant shall desire to make such alterations, plans for the same shall first be submitted to and approved by Landlord, and all work and installations shall be performed by Tenant at its own expense in accordance with approved plans. Tenant agrees that all such work shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner, that the structural integrity of the Building shall not be impaired, and that no liens shall attach to the Premises by reason thereof. Tenant agrees to obtain, at Tenant’s expense, all permits required for such alterations.
