each remaining year of the Lease term herein granted,

the above ad valorem taxes, pro rata, based on the
square footage occupied by the Lessee, in the 156,206

all sums paid by Lessor the above coverage, pro rata,
based on the square footage occupied by the Lessee in
the 156,206 square foot building in excess of the
annual premium for said coverage for the year 1996,
unless such increases shall result of the
occupancy or use by any other tenant in
the building, in which case Lessee shall have no
obligation to pay any portion of such increase.
However, if such increases are the result of the
occupancy or use of Lessee or of the occupancy or use
by any sub-tenant or assignee of Lessee, Lessee shall
be responsible for the increase on the entire building.
Upon being notified by Lessor of said increased sums,
Lessee will remit to Lessor said amount within thirty
(30) days.

insurance coverage on all equipment, inventory,
fixtures, furniture, appliances and other personal
property on the Premises.

to have occurred upon the Premises in an amount not
less than $2,000,000.00, per occurrence of coverage for
injury (including death) to one or more persons
attributable to a single occurrence and for property
damage.

Lessee each waives all right of recovery against the
other for, and agrees to release the other from
liability for, loss or damage to the extent such loss
or damage is covered by valid and collectible insurance
in effect at the time of such loss or damage; provided
however, that the foregoing release by each party is
conditioned upon the other party's carrying insurance
with the above described waiver of subrogation, and if
such coverage is not obtained or maintained by either
party, then the other party's foregoing release shall
be deemed to be rescinded until such waiver is either
obtained or reinstated.
All insurance provided for in this Lease shall be
effected under enforceable policies issued by insurers
of recognized responsibility licensed to do business in
the state where the Premises are located. At least 15
days prior to the expiration date of any policy
procured by Lessee, the original renewal policy for
such insurance shall be delivered by the Lessee to the
Lessor. Within fifteen (15) days after the premium on
any such policy shall become due and payable, the
Lessor shall be furnished with satisfactory evidence of
its payment. The original policy or policies shall be
delivered to Lessor at the commencement of this Lease.
If the Lessee provides any insurance required by
this Lease in the form of a blanket policy, the Lessee
shall furnish satisfactory proof that such blanket
policy complies in all respects with the provisions of
this Lease, and that the coverage thereunder is at lest
equal to the coverage which would be provided under a
separate policy covering only the Premises.
If the Lessor so requires, the policies of
insurance provided for shall be payable to the holder
of any mortgage, as the interest of such holder may
appear, pursuant to a standard mortgage clause. All
such policies shall, to the extent obtainable provide
that any loss shall be payable to the Lessor or to the
holder of any mortgage notwithstanding any act or
negligence of the Lessee which might otherwise result
in forfeiture of such insurance. All such policies
shall, to the extent obtainable, contain an agreement
by the insurers that such policies shall not be
cancelled without a least thirty (30) days prior
written notice to the Lessor and to the holder of any
mortgage to whom loss hereunder may be payable.
Additional Charges 30. In addition to rent, Lessee shall pay monthly in
advance concurrent with rental payments, all applicable
State and Local Sales Tax on all sums due under this
Lease.
Radon Gas 31. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas
that, when it has accumulated in a building in
sufficient quantities, may present health risks to
persons who are exposed to it over time.
Levels of radon that exceed federal and state
guidelines have been found in buildings in Florida.
Additional information regarding radon and radon
testing may be obtained from your county public
health unit.
Grounds and
Common Area

herein above, Lessor shall provide all material,
equipment and labor for exterior landscape and grounds

mulching, weeding, fertilizing, insecticiding, pruning,
routine replacement of trees and shrubbery, and other
landscaping, drainage, and irrigation system
maintenance. Lessor will also provide landscaping and

irrigation and storm water management systems which
serve the Premises and Westside Industrial Park
("common area maintenance").

remaining year of the Lease term herein granted, or any

reimburse Lessor for all sums paid by Lessor for the
above grounds and common area maintenance, pro rata
based on the square footage occupied by the Lessee, in
the 156,206 square foot building in excess of the total
amount of grounds and common area maintenance payable
for the year 1996. Upon being notified by Lessor of
said pro rata amount of grounds and common area
maintenance, Lessee will remit same to Lessor within
thirty (30) days in the same manner as rent.

33. The building of which the Premises are a part
is served by one water meter. Lessor shall be billed by
the utility for all water consumed in building along
with related sewer charges, and Lessor shall promptly
pay said bills. Lessor shall, however, invoice Lessee
monthly for Lessee's share of such water and sewer
charges based on Lessee's portion of the leased space
in building, and Lessee shall promptly pay said bills.
If Lessee's consumption of water is increased by
"non-domestic" manufacturing, processing, or other
uses, exclusive of "domestic" uses such as office,
restroom, drinking fountain, or is increased by
"domestic" uses arising from occupancy by more than one
person per 2000 sq. ft. of leased floor area, Lessee's
share of water billed shall take such extra uses into
account. Conversely, if water use by any other occupant
of the building is increased by such "non-domestic" use
or "domestic" uses arising from occupancy exceeding one
person per 2000 sq. ft. of leased floor area, such
other occupant's billing shall take such extra use into
account. All other utilities will be separately
metered.
