monthly) all charges for any services, goods or materials
furnished by Landlord at Tenant's written request which are
not required to be furnished by Landlord under this Lease

and payable in full, upon demand after the services, goods, or
materials are furnished.

prorated based on a thirty (30) day month, and for any
fractional year shall be prorated based on a three hundred
sixty (360) day year.

or to deduct the cost thereof from rent or other sums due

date on which it was due until the date on which it is paid,
regardless of whether any notice has been given by Landlord to
Tenant. This provision shall not relieve Tenant from payment
of any Monthly Rent, additional rent or other amounts due
hereunder at the time and in the manner herein specified nor
waive any other right or remedy of Landlord hereunder.
4.9 ACCEPTANCE OF LATE PAYMENTS: The receipt and acceptance by
Landlord of delinquent Rent shall not constitute a waiver of
any other default. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord
of a lesser amount than the Monthly Rent, Additional Rent or
other sums due shall be deemed to be other than on account of
the earliest stipulated amounts so due, nor shall any
endorsement or statement on any check or any letter or other
writing accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed in
accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or
payment without prejudice to Landlord's rights to recover the
balance of such rent or to pursue any other right or remedy
provided herein or at law or in equity.

during the year by Tenant's Proportionate Share. As soon as
practicable after December 31st of each year, Landlord shall
estimate the total of CAM costs for the succeeding year
("Calculation Period") and Tenant agrees to pay one twelfth

with applicable tax thereon, concurrently with each monthly
rental payment. As soon as practicable after the end of each
Calculation Period, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a
statement of Tenant's Proportionate Share of each year's
actual CAM costs. In the event that the actual CAM costs
exceed Landlord's estimate for that year, Tenant shall pay
Landlord such excess within 30 days of receipt of the
statement of actual CAM costs. In the event that the actual
CAM costs are less than the estimated CAM costs and Tenant has
paid all CAM costs installments, then Tenant shall be given a
credit for such overpayment applicable to the next year's CAM
charges.

control.

sole expense, upon reasonable prior notice to Landlord and no
more often than once per year, to perform an audit of the CAM
costs for the preceding calendar year as well as the

prorated period.
6. SECURITY DEPOSIT

Landlord as security for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of
each and every term, covenant and condition of this Lease on the part
of Tenant to be observed and performed, and Landlord shall have no
liability to pay interest thereon unless required by law. If any rent
or Additional Rent herein reserved or any other sums payable by Tenant
hereunder shall be overdue and unpaid or should Landlord make payments
on behalf of Tenant, or should Tenant fail to perform any of the terms
of this Lease, then Landlord may, at its option, and without prejudice
to any other remedy which Landlord may have on account thereof, apply

non performance of any statute, law, ordinance, rule or
regulation, any negligence of the Tenant or Tenant's Agents,
or any other event on the Premises, whatever the cause.
Tenant's indemnification does not extend to liability for
damages resulting from the sole or gross negligence of
Landlord or for Landlord's intentional misconduct.
Tenant further agrees that if, in case of any claim, demand,
action or cause of action, threatened or actual, against
Landlord, as a result of action or inaction by Tenant or
Tenant's Agents, and Tenant does not provide a defense against
any and all such claims, demands, actions or causes of action
threatened or actual, the Tenant will, in addition to the
above, pay Landlord the actual attorney's fees, other legal
expenses and costs incurred by Landlord in providing or
preparing such defense, and Tenant agrees to cooperate with
Landlord in such defense, including, but not limited to, the
providing of affidavits and testimony upon request of
Landlord.

10.2 INSURANCE:
a. Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, obtain and keep in
force during the term of this Lease a policy of
commercial general liability insurance insuring
Landlord and Tenant against any liability arising out
of Tenant's use, occupancy or maintenance of the
Premises and all Common Areas with a combined single
limit per occurrence of $1,000,000 exclusive of
defense costs and any deductible or self-insured
retention, or such other limits as Landlord may from
time to time reasonably require. The limit of such
insurance shall not, however, limit the liability of
the Tenant hereunder. If Tenant shall fail to procure
and maintain such insurance, Landlord may, but shall
not be required to, procure and maintain same, but at
the expense of Tenant.
b. Tenant shall maintain a policy of insurance against
risk of loss from any cause whatsoever to all of its
personal property upon the Premises, to the full
extent of replacement cost, which policy of insurance
shall contain a standard waiver of subrogation clause
or endorsement. Upon request, Tenant shall provide
evidence of its insurance coverage.
c. All insurance required hereunder shall be with
companies approved by Landlord, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord, prior to occupancy of the Premises, copies
of any policy of liability insurance required herein
or certificates evidencing the existence and amounts
of such insurance with Landlord named as an
additional insured, and thereafter shall deliver any
replacement policies to Landlord prior to expiration
of the current policy. No policy shall be cancelable
or subject to reduction of coverage except after 30
days prior written notice to Landlord. If any policy
that Tenant is required to maintain is written on a
claims-made Insurance form, each policy must have a
retroactive date that is not later than the
Commencement Date. Furthermore, if insurance coverage
is written on a claims-made basis, Tenant's
obligation to provide insurance will be extended for
an additional period equal to the statute of
limitations for such claims plus one year. Insurance
may be provided in the form of blanket insurance
policies covering properties in addition to the
Premises or entities in addition to Tenant. All
blanket policies must provide that the overall
aggregate limit of liability that applies to Landlord
or the Premises is independent from any overall or
annual aggregate that applies to other entities or
properties.
-12-
10.3 ASSUMPTION OF RISK: Tenant, as a material part of the
consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage
to property or injury to persons, in, upon or about the
Premises from any cause, and Tenant hereby waives all claims
in respect thereof against Landlord. Landlord and Landlord's
Agents shall not be liable for any damage to property
entrusted to Landlord or Landlord's Agents, from any cause
whatsoever, unless caused by or due to the gross negligence of
Landlord or Landlord's Agents or Employees. Landlord and
Landlord's Agents shall not be liable for any latent defect in
the Premises or in the Building.
10.4 NOTICE TO LANDLORD: Tenant shall give prompt notice to
Landlord in case of fire or accidents, or needed repair in the
Premises or, if known by the Tenant, in other parts of the
Building.
10.5 CHATTEL PLEDGE: Tenant hereby pledges and assigns the Landlord
all furniture and fixtures, goods and chattels of the Tenant,
which may be brought or put on the Premises, as security for
the payment of Rent herein reserved, and agrees that the
Landlord's lien for the payment of Rent may be enforced by
distress, foreclosure or otherwise, at the option of the
Landlord, and Tenant agrees that such lien is granted to the
Landlord and vested in Landlord, and the Tenant further agrees
that in case of the failure of Tenant to pay the Rent herein
when the same shall become due, and it becomes necessary for
the Landlord to collect Rent by suit or through an attorney,
or should Landlord employ an attorney because of the breach of
any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained in this
lease, the Tenant will pay the Landlord its actual attorney's
fee together with all costs and charges incurred by, through
or in connection with such collection or in any other suit or
action or appeal which may be brought in any court because of
a breach of any terms, covenants or agreements contained in
this Lease.
10.6 MUTUAL WAIVER OF SUBROGATION: Landlord and Tenant hereby
mutually release and waive their respective rights of recovery
and subrogation against each other for any loss insured by
fire, extended coverage and other property insurance policies
existing for the benefit of the respective parties to the
extent such waiver is permitted by such policies or insurance
carriers. If either party fails to obtain insurance required
hereunder, it bears the full risk of its own loss.
11. ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLETTING
11.1 TENANT: The Tenant shall not sell, assign, transfer, mortgage,
hypothecate or otherwise encumber this Lease or the leasehold
interest granted hereby, or any other interest therein, or
permit the use of the Premises or any part thereof by any
person or persons other than the Tenant and Tenant's Agents
and business invitees, or sublet the Premises, or any part
thereof, without the prior written consent of the Landlord in
Landlord's sole discretion in each such case. Notwithstanding
any such assignment, mortgage, hypothecation, encumbrance or
subletting, the Tenant shall at all times remain fully
responsible and liable for the payment of the rent and
Additional Rent and (or compliance with all of the obligations
of the Tenant under the terms, provisions and covenants of
this Lease. If Tenant is a corporation, unincorporated
-13-
association, trust or general or limited partnership, the
sale, new issue, assignment, transfer or hypothecation of any
stock or other ownership interest of such entity which from
time to time in the aggregate exceeds twenty-five percent
(25%) of such interest shall be deemed an assignment subject
to the provisions of this Section 11.1. If Tenant subleases or
assigns any portion of the Premises and whether or not such
sublease or assignment was consented to, and the rental
exceeds the amount of rent due hereunder, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord one-half (1/2) of all such excess rent as Additional
Rent. In no event shall Tenant be permitted to sublease or
assign any portion of the Premises at a rental amount less
than the amount due under the terms of this Lease. Any act
described in this Section 11.1 which is done without the
consent of the Landlord shall be null and void and shall be an
Event of Default.
11.2 LANDLORD: Landlord shall have the right to sell, transfer or
assign any of its rights and obligations under this Lease.
12. SIGNS; ADVERTISING
The Tenant shall not place or maintain or permit to be placed or

other public areas of the Building except such numerals and lettering
on doorways as may be approved and permitted by the Landlord.
13. MAINTENANCE OF INTERIOR OF PREMISES
The Tenant shall take good care of the Premises and shall, at the

and repair and shall promptly make all repairs to the same to the
satisfaction of the Landlord, and at the end, or earlier termination,
of the Term, shall deliver the Premises to Landlord in the same
condition as received, wear and tear by ordinary use thereof, fire and
other casually excepted. Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to,
make any repairs which are not promptly made by Tenant and charge
Tenant for the cost thereof as Additional Rent.
14. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
If the Building is damaged by fire or other peril not caused in whole
or in part by Tenant, to the extent that the entire Premises are
rendered untenantable and cannot be reasonably rendered in as good a
condition as existed prior to the damage within ninety (90) days from
the date that Landlord secures permits for the reconstruction of the
Premises, the Term of this Lease may be terminated by the Landlord or
the Tenant by giving written notice to the other party; but if such
damage is not such as to permit termination of the Lease as above
provided, then if such damage is not caused by Tenant or Tenants
Agents, employees, or invitees, a proportionate reduction shall be made
in the rent corresponding to the time during which and to the portions
of the Premises of which the Tenant shall hereby be deprived of
possession. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
secure the requisite permits and governmental approvals to reconstruct
the Premises in a timely manner. If Landlord is unable to secure the
requisite permits and governmental approvals within six (6) months of
the date of the damage, then either Landlord or Tenant may elect to
terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other party. The
Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be responsible or liable for any
loss due to business interruption occasioned by such fire, casually or
other cause which renders the Premises untenantable nor shall Landlord
be liable for any damage to Tenants property or persons. Tenant may not
terminate this Lease on account of any damage caused by Tenant or
Tenant's agents, employees, guests or invitees.

such time as shall be required to evict Tenant, together with
