Insurance

Section 8.01. Tenant's Insurance.

(1) "All Risk" property insurance against fire, theft, vandalism, malicious mischief, sprinkler leakage and such additional perils as are now, or hereafter may, be included in a standard extended coverage endorsement from time to time in general use in the State of New Jersey, upon property of every description and kind owned by Tenant and located in the Demised Premises for which Tenant is legally liable or installed by or on behalf of Tenant, including by way of example and not by way of limitation, furniture, fixtures, fittings, installations and any other personal property, in an amount equal to the full replacement cost thereof. The Tenant may self-insure as to plate glass insurance.

(2) Comprehensive General Liability Insurance coverage, to include personal injury, bodily injury, broad form property damage, and contractual liability, naming Landlord and

Landlord's mortgagee or trust deed holder and ground lessors (if any) as additional insureds in limits of not less than Three Million and 00/100 (S3,000,000.00) Dollars.

(3) Workers' Compensation insurance in form and amount as required by law.

(4) Any other form or forms of insurance or increase in the limits of any of the aforesaid enumerated coverages or other forms of insurance as Landlord or the mortgagees or ground lessors (if any) of Landlord may reasonably require from time to time if in the reasonable opinion of Landlord or said mortgagees or ground lessors said coverage and/or limits become inadequate and less than that commonly maintained by prudent tenants in similar buildings in the area by tenants making similar uses.

(B) All property insurance policies shall be taken out with insurers rated AX by Best Rating Service of Oldwick, New Jersey who are licensed to do business in the State of New Jersey and shall be in form satisfactory from time to time to Landlord. A policy or certificate evidencing such insurance together with a paid xxxx shall be delivered to Landlord not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement of the Term hereof. Such insurance policy or certificate will provide an undertaking by the insurers to notify Landlord and the mortgagors or ground lessors (if any) of Landlord in writing not less than thirty (30) days prior to any material change, reduction in coverage, cancellation, or other termination thereof. Should a certificate of insurance initially be provided, a policy shall be furnished by Tenant within thirty (30) days of the Term's commencement. The aforesaid insurance shall be written with no deductible.

(C) In the event of damage to or destruction of the Demised Premises entitling Landlord or Tenant to terminate this Lease pursuant to Article XI hereof, and if this Lease is so terminated, Tenant will immediately pay to Landlord all of its insurance proceeds, if any, relating to the leasehold improvements and alterations (but not Tenant's trade fixtures, equipment, furniture and other personal property of Tenant in the Demised Premises or those leasehold improvements and alterations to which Landlord has consented and pursuant to which consent are required to be removed by Tenant at the expiration or sooner termination of the Term) which have become Landlord's property on installation or would have become Landlord's property at the Term's expiration or sooner termination.

(D) Tenant agrees that it will not keep or use or offer for sale (if sales of goods is a permitted use pursuant to this Lease) in or upon the Demised Premises any article which may be prohibited by any insurance policy in force from time to time covering the Demised Premises. Tenant shall promptly comply with all reasonable requirements of the insurance authority or of any insurer now or hereafter in effect relating to the Demised Premises.

(E) If any insurance policy carried by Landlord, as provided in Section 8.02 hereof, shall be cancelled or cancellation shall be threatened or the coverage thereunder reduced or threatened to be reduced in any way by reason of the use or occupation of the Demised Premises or any part thereof by Tenant or any assignee or sublessee of Tenant or anyone permitted by Tenant to be upon the Demised Premises, and if Tenant fails to remedy the conditions giving rise to said cancellation or threatened cancellation or reduction in coverage on or before (i) forty-eight (48) hours after notice thereof from Landlord, or (ii) prior to said cancellation or reduction becoming effective, Tenant shall be in default hereunder and Landlord shall have all of the remedies available to Landlord pursuant to this Lease.

Section 8.02. Landlord's Insurance. Landlord covenants and agrees that throughout the Term it will insure the Demised Premises [excluding any property with respect to which Tenant is obligated to insure pursuant to Subsection 8.01(A)(l) above] against damage by fire and standard extended coverage perils for full replacement value and public liability insurance in such reasonable amounts with such reasonable deductibles as required by any mortgagee or ground lessor (if any), or if none, as would be carried by a prudent owner of a similar building in the area. In addition, Landlord shall

maintain and keep in force and effect during the Term, rental income insurance insuring Landlord against abatement or loss of Basic Rent, including items of Additional Rent, in case of fire or other casualty similarly insured against, in an amount at least equal to the Basic Rent and Additional Rent during, at the minimum, one (1) Lease year hereunder. Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, take out and carry any other forms of insurance as it or the mortgagee or ground lessor (if any) of the Real Property may reasonably require or reasonably determine available. All insurance carried by Landlord on the Demised Premises shall be reimbursed in full by Tenant, as Additional Rent. Upon written request of Tenant, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of certificates evidencing the insurance maintained by Landlord together with copies of premium invoices with respect to such insurance coverage. Tenant further acknowledges that the exculpatory provisions of this Lease as set forth in Article XX and the provisions of this Subsection 8.02 as to Tenant's insurance are designed to insure adequate coverage as to Tenant's property and business without regard to fault and to avoid Landlord obtaining similar coverage for said loss for its negligence or that of its agents, servants or employees which would result in double coverage for the same perils which is payable by Tenant. Landlord will not carry insurance of any kind on Tenant's furniture or furnishings, or on any fixtures, equipment, appurtenances or improvements of Tenant under this Lease, and Landlord shall not be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the same.

Section 8.03. Waiver of Claim/Waiver of Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event of any loss or damage to the Building, the Premises and/or any contents, each party waives all claims against the other for any such loss or damage and each party shall look only to any insurance which it has obtained to protect against such loss. Any policy or policies of fire, extended coverage or similar casualty insurance, which either party obtains in connection with the Demised Premises, shall include a clause or endorsement denying the insurer any rights of subrogation against the other party (i.e. Landlord or Tenant) for all perils covered by said policy. Should such waiver not be available, then the policy for which the waiver is not available must name the other party as an additional insured affording it the same coverage as that provided the party obtaining said coverage.

Section 8.04. Indemnity. Tenant is and shall be in exclusive control and possession of the Demised Premises as provided herein, and Landlord shall not in any event whatsoever be liable for any injury or damage to any property or to any person happening on or about the Demised Premises, or for any injury or damage to the Demised Premises, nor to any property of Tenant, or of any other person contained therein.

Tenant shall indemnify and save Landlord harmless against and from all liabilities, claims, suits, fines, penalties, damages, losses, fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) which may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of:

(1) Any work or thing done by Tenant, its agents or employees in, on or about the Demised Premises or any part thereof;

(2) Any use, occupation, condition, operation by Tenant, its agents or employees of the Demised Premises or any part thereof or of any street, alley, sidewalk, curb, vault, passageway or space adjacent thereto or any occurrence on any of the same;

(3) Any act or omission on the part of Tenant or any subtenant or any employees, licensees or invitees;

(4) Any accident, injury (including death) or damage, unless caused by Landlord, its agents or employees, to any third party or property owned by someone other than Tenant and not under the care, custody or control of the Tenant occurring in, on or about the Demised Premises, or any part thereof or in, on or about any street, alley, sidewalk, curb, vault, passageway or space adjacent thereto; and

(5) Any failure on the part of Tenant to perform or comply with any of the covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Lease.

The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination thereof.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have no obligation to indemnify Landlord and its agents from any matter arising out of the negligence or intentional acts of Landlord or its agents.

Section 8.05. Escrow. In the event any mortgagee, ground lessor or trust deed holder requires an escrow for insurance, taxes or any other reoccurring charges, Tenant shall, on demand from Landlord, deposit the required escrow as required by any of the aforesaid. Notwithstanding the above, any payment by Tenant in excess of the actual charges for the above shall be refunded to the Tenant.

ARTICLE IX

Repairs

Section 9.01. The Tenant shall keep the Demised Premises, including the sidewalks in front thereof, in good condition and repair, and shall redecorate, paint and renovate the Demised Premises as may be necessary to keep them in good condition and repair and good appearance. The Tenant shall keep the Demised Premises and all parts thereof in a clean and sanitary condition and free from trash, flammable material and other objectionable matter. The Tenant shall keep the sidewalks, roadways and landscaped areas forming part of the Demised Premises clean and free of obstructions, snow and ice. Throughout the Term of this Lease, the Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, will take good care of the Demised Premises and will keep the same in good order and condition and make all necessary repairs and replacements thereto, structural and non-structural, interior and exterior, ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen.

The Tenant shall replace, at the Tenant's expense, all glass in and on the Demised Premises which may become broken after the date of Tenant's occupancy. When used in this Article, the term "repairs" shall include all necessary replacements and renewals. All repairs made by Tenant shall be equal in quality and class to the original work. The Tenant shall quit and surrender the Demised Premises at the end of the Term in good order and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted and in compliance with the requirements stated herein and in a "broom-clean" condition, and shall, by way of example and not by way of limitation, clean and reseal all exposed concrete floors.

Should the Tenant fail to keep the Demised Premises in good condition and repair, Landlord, after reasonable notice to Tenant (or without notice in the case of an emergency), may, without being obliged, make the repairs, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, immediately upon demand, the cost therefor, which shall constitute Additional Rent due hereunder and shall be subject to all remedies by law or otherwise for the collection of Basic Rent and Additional Rent; however, nothing herein shall be construed to impose a duty on Landlord to mitigate its damages by undertaking any repair which is Tenant's obligation.

Section 9.02. The Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Demised Premises without the prior written consent of the Landlord, which Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay. In the event Tenant has not received a response from Landlord to Tenant's request for such alteration, addition or improvement, within ten (10) days of Landlord's receipt of such request, Tenant shall so notify Landlord of its failure to respond, and should Landlord still not respond to Tenant within five (5) days of receipt of such Tenant's notice, Landlord's consent shall be deemed granted.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Tenant may, without the need for obtaining Landlord's prior written consent, make alterations, additions and improvements within the Premises which do not affect the Building Systems (i.e. heating, ventilating, plumbing, electrical or other utilities) or which do not affect any structural portion of the Building, provided said alteration, addition and/or improvement does not exceed the sum of Forty Thousand and 00/100 ($40,000.00) Dollars in the aggregate in any one (1) Lease year. Tenant shall, however, as to said alterations, additions and/or improvements not requiring Landlord's consent, provide Landlord with reasonable prior notice of its intention to perform such alterations, together with information as to the nature of said alterations, additions and/or improvements, including but not limited to plans and specifications.

Casualty

Section 11.01. If the Demised Premises or the Building is damaged or destroyed by fire, explosion, the elements or otherwise during the Term so as to render the Demised Premises wholly untenantable or unfit for occupancy, or should the Demised Premises be so badly injured that the same cannot be repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days from the happening of such injury [as determined by Landlord's architect or engineer by notice to

Landlord and Tenant within thirty (30) days of the date of the casualty], then, and in such case, the Term hereby created shall, at the option of either the Landlord or the Tenant terminate upon the giving of a notice of termination. If a notice of termination is given, the Term of this Lease shall terminate effective as of the date of such damage or destruction, and the Tenant shall immediately surrender the Demised Premises and all the Tenant's interest therein to the Landlord, and pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent to the time of such damage or destruction, and the Landlord may re-enter and repossess the Demised Premises discharged from this Lease and may remove all parties therefrom.

Section 11.02. Should the Demised Premises be rendered untenantable and unfit for occupancy, but yet be repairable within one hundred eighty (180) days from the happening of said injury [as determined by Landlord's architect or engineer within thirty (30) days of the date of the casualty], the Landlord will, provided the mortgagee makes the proceeds of any casualty insurance required to be carried pursuant to this Lease available to the Landlord to restore and further provided that the insurance proceeds so received are adequate to restore the Building and the Demised Premises, enter and repair the same with reasonable speed, and the Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall not accrue after said injury or while such repairs are being made, but shall recommence immediately after such repairs shall be completed; provided that Landlord has delivered to Tenant a certificate of occupancy as required by local law. Landlord shall endeavor to provide Tenant with thirty (30) days prior notice of the estimated date of completion of such repairs.

Section 11.03. If the Demised Premises shall be so slightly injured as not to be rendered untenantable and unfit for occupancy, the Landlord shall repair the same with reasonable promptness and the Basic Rent and Additional Rent accrued and accruing shall not cease or terminate. The Tenant shall immediately notify the Landlord in case of fire or other damage to the Demised Premises.

Section 11.04. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.01, neither the Landlord nor the Tenant shall have any option to terminate this Lease upon the happening of an injury referred to in Section 11.01, provided: (i) that the happening of such injury occurs at a time when the unexpired Term of this Lease is two (2) years or more; (ii) further provided that the mortgagee makes the proceeds of any casualty insurance required to be carried pursuant to this Lease available to Landlord to restore; and (iii) further provided that the insurance proceeds so received are adequate to restore the Building and the Demised Premises. In such event, the Landlord shall repair the Demised Premises, even to the extent of rebuilding the Building if necessary, subject, however, to the receipt of sufficient insurance proceeds. The Landlord shall promptly enter and repair the Demised Premises with reasonable speed, making due allowance for conditions beyond the Landlord's control, including but not limited to time lost in adjusting insurance claims and strikes, and the Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall not accrue after such injury and while repairs are being made, provided Landlord receives the proceeds of rent insurance maintained by the Tenant, but shall recommence immediately after said repairs shall be completed and the Landlord delivers possession thereof to the Tenant. Landlord shall have no obligation to repair or restore Tenant's improvements.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event Landlord shall commence the restoration of the Demised Premises in accordance with this Section 11.04, and if Tenant's acts or omissions, or those of its agents, servants, or employees did not cause the casualty, then unless Landlord restores the Demised Premises within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date of the casualty, as said period is extended by Force Majeure, however in no event beyond two hundred seventy (270) days from the date of the casualty, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days' prior notice to Landlord of its intent so to do, which notice shall be given no earlier than said one hundred eightieth (180th) day as extended by Force Majeure, but in no event beyond said two hundred seventieth (270th) day, unless Landlord completes said restoration within the thirty (30) day period similarly extended by Force Majeure but not beyond two hundred seventy (270) days from the date of the casualty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, during said restoration, Landlord's architect or engineer determines that the Premises

will not be restored within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date of the casualty, subject to Force Majeure [but not beyond two hundred seventy (270) days from the date of the casualty], then Landlord shall so notify Tenant and Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease on thirty (30) days' notice to Landlord of its intent to do so, unless Landlord completes said restoration within said thirty (30) day period, similarly extended for Force Majeure.

ARTICLE XII

Condemnation

Section 12.01. If Tenant's use of the Demised Premises is materially affected due to a taking under any power of eminent domain or condemnation then, at the option of the Tenant, to be exercised in writing within thirty (30) days of the taking of title thereto, this Lease shall expire within thirty (30) days of the date of such notice and the Basic Rent and any Additional Rent herein reserved shall be apportioned as of that date. However, if the Tenant does not exercise the aforementioned option, or if the taking does not materially affect the Tenant's use of the Demised Premises, this Lease shall not expire but the Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be equitably apportioned. If the Landlord and the Tenant fail to agree upon an equitable apportionment, the Basic Rent and Additional Rent for the Building, after such taking, shall be determined in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association of Somerset, New Jersey, and the arbitrator shall be empowered to assess the costs and expenses of the proceedings as part of the determination. Pending such determination the Tenant shall pay, on account of the Basic Rent and Additional Rent, such proportion of the Basic Rent and Additional Rent reserved in this Lease as the total area of the Building after the taking bears to the total area of the Building before the taking, subject to adjustment in accordance with the arbitrator's award. If the Landlord can, after such taking, construct an addition to the remaining Building so as to restore all of the Building area and Building facilities theretofore taken, the Landlord shall, subject to the adequacy of the condemnation award and to the mortgagee making the same available to the Landlord, promptly construct such addition and restore such facilities so taken and upon the completion of such restoration, the full Basic Rent and Additional Rent reserved by this Lease shall be reinstated, as of the date of such restoration, and, if the Tenant is able to occupy and use the Building, the proportionate Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be paid by the Tenant as herein provided, during the period between the taking and the restoration of the Building and facilities. No part of any award shall belong to the Tenant except that nothing contained herein is intended to affect or limit the Tenant's separate claim for fixtures or other improvements owned by Tenant provided the same does not diminish the Landlord's award. It is expressly understood and agreed that the provisions of this Article XII shall not be applicable to any condemnation or taking for governmental occupancy for a limited period of time, and this Lease shall be and remain unaffected by such condemnation or taking and the Tenant shall continue to be responsible for all of its obligations hereunder and Tenant shall continue to pay the Basic Rent and Additional Rent as provided in the Lease, provided in the event of any such condemnation or taking Tenant shall be entitled to appear, claim, prove and receive any award; but if the period of temporary use or occupancy extends beyond the expiration date, Landlord shall be entitled to appear, claim, prove and receive the entire award as represents the costs of restoration to the Demised Premises and the portion of any such award allocable to the period following the expiration date. To the extent Landlord receives any award for loss of Tenant's rental or for the temporary use and occupancy of the Demised Premises attributable to any portion of the Term hereof, Landlord agrees to credit same against the Basic Rent and Additional Rent and otherwise payable by Tenant hereunder. For purposes of this Section 12.01, a "limited period of time" shall be deemed to mean six (6) months or less.

Section 12.02. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver any instruments, at the expense of Landlord, as may be reasonably necessary or required to expedite any condemnation proceeding or to effectuate a proper transfer of title to such governmental or other public authority, agency, body or public utility seeking to take or acquire the Demised Premises or any portion thereof. The Tenant covenants and agrees to vacate the Demised Premises

in the event the Lease is terminated as a result of condemnation and to remove all of Tenant's personal property therefrom in accordance with the terms of this Lease and deliver up peaceably possession thereof to the Landlord or to such other party designated by Landlord by written notice in the condition provided for in the Lease. In the event that the Lease is terminated all obligations of the parties (except those obligations accruing prior to the termination date and those which by the terms of this Lease survive termination) shall cease as of such taking. Landlord and Tenant each agree to provide prompt notice to the other of any taking or proposed taking of the Demised Premises or any part thereof.

If this Lease is terminated as provided in Section 15.01, or as permitted by law, the Tenant shall peaceably quit and surrender the Demised Premises to the Landlord, and the Landlord may, without further notice, enter upon, re-enter, possess and repossess the same by summary proceedings, ejectment or other legal proceedings, and again have, repossess and enjoy the same as if this Lease had not been made, and in any such event neither the Tenant nor any person claiming through or under the Tenant by virtue of any law or an order of any court shall be entitled to possession or to remain in possession of the Demised Premises, and the Landlord, at its option, shall forthwith, notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, be entitled to recover from the Tenant in lieu of all other claims for damages on account of such termination as and for liquidated damages an amount equal to the excess of all Term Basic Rent and Additional Rent reserved hereunder for the unexpired portion of the Term of this Lease discounted at the rate of six (6%) percent per annum to the then present worth, over the fair rental value of the Demised Premises at the time of termination for such unexpired portion of the Term (the rent received on a reletting shall be conclusively accepted as the fair rental value). Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of the Landlord, in any bankruptcy or reorganization or insolvency proceeding, to prove for and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such

termination an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any bankruptcy or reorganization or insolvency proceedings, or to prove for and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such termination, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law whether such amount shall be greater or less than the excess referred to above.

Section 15.03. If the Landlord re-enters and obtains possession of the Demised Premises, as provided in Section 15.02 of this Lease, following an Event of Default, the Landlord shall have the right, without notice, to repair or alter the Demised Premises in such a manner as the Landlord may deem necessary or advisable so as to put the Demised Premises in good order and to make the same rentable, and shall have the right, at the Landlord's option, to relet the Demised Premises or a part thereof, and the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord on demand all reasonable expenses incurred by the Landlord in obtaining possession, and in altering, repairing and putting the Demised Premises in good order and condition and in reletting the same, including reasonable fees of attorneys and architects, and all other reasonable expenses or commissions, and the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord upon the rent payment dates following the date of such re-entry and including the date for the expiration of the Term of this Lease in effect immediately prior to such re-entry, the sums of money which would have been payable by the Tenant as Monthly Basic Rent and Additional Rent hereunder on such rent payment dates if the Landlord had not re-entered and resumed possession of the Demised Premises, deducting only the net amount of rent (basic and additional), if any, which the Landlord shall actually receive (after deducting from the gross receipts the expenses, costs and payments of the Landlord which in accordance with the terms of this Lease would have been borne by the Tenant) in the meantime from and by any reletting of the Demised Premises, and the Tenant shall remain liable for all sums otherwise payable by the Tenant under this Lease, including but not limited to the expense of the Landlord aforesaid, as well as for any deficiency aforesaid, and the Landlord shall have the right from time to time to begin and maintain successive actions or other legal proceedings against the Tenant for the recovery of such deficiency, expenses or damages or for a sum equal to any Monthly Basic Rent payment and Additional Rent. As an alternative remedy, the Landlord shall be entitled to damages against the Tenant for breach of this Lease, at any time (whether or not the Landlord shall have become entitled to or shall have received any damages as hereinabove provided) in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Term Basic Rent and Additional Rent which would be payable under this Lease at the date of the expiration of the Term, less the amount of Term Basic Rent and Additional Rent received by the Landlord upon any reletting, both discounted to present worth at the rate of six (6%) percent per annum, semi-annually. The obligation and liability of the Tenant to pay the Term Basic Rent and the Additional Rent shall survive the commencement, prosecution and termination of any action to secure possession of the Demised Premises. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require the Landlord to wait to begin such action or other legal proceedings until the date when this Lease would have expired had there not been an Event of Default.

Section 15.04. The Tenant hereby waives all right of redemption to which the Tenant or any person under it may be entitled by any law nor or hereafter in force. Notwithstanding anything herein contained, Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to relet the Demised Premises in order to mitigate its damages, but nothing herein shall limit the Landlord's right, in its sole discretion, to approve any tenant and to determine the terms and conditions of any lease, including but not limited to rent and length of term. The Landlord's remedies hereunder are in addition to any remedy allowed by law.

Section 15.05. In the event of any breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the agreements, terms, covenants or conditions contained in this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to enjoin such breach or threatened breach and shall have the right to invoke any right or remedy allowed at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise as though re-entry, summary dispossess proceedings, and other remedies were not provided for in this Lease. During the pendency of any proceedings brought by Landlord to recover possession by reason of default, Tenant shall continue all money payments required to be made to Landlord, and Landlord may accept such payments for use and occupancy of the Demised Premises. In such event, Tenant waives its right in such proceedings to claim as a defense that the receipt of such money payments by Landlord constitutes a waiver by landlord of such default.

ARTICLE XVI

Assignment and Sublease

Section 16.01. The Tenant may not mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, assign, transfer, sublet or otherwise deal with this Lease or of the Demised Premises in any manner except as specifically provided for in this Article XVI.

Section 16.02. In the event that Tenant desires to sublease the whole or any portion of the Demised Premiss or assign the within Lease to any other party, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of such desire and furnish Landlord with an exact copy of the proposed assignment or sublease not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date on which Tenant desires to make such assignment or sublease and the identity of the subtenant or assignee. The Tenant shall not submit, nor shall Landlord accept, any assignment or sublease for review which has a proposed rent less than the current market value. The Landlord shall require a Five Hundred and 00/100 ($500.00) Dollar payment to cover its handling charges for each request for consent to any sublet or assignment prior to its consideration of the same.

Section 16.03. The Landlord shall have a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of the aforementioned notice within which to notify the Tenant in writing that Landlord elects either:

(A) to terminate this Lease as to the space so affected as of the date so specified by the Tenant as above (with the same effect as if such date was the date fixed herein for the expiration of the Term) in which event Tenant will be relieved of all further obligation hereunder as to such space; or

(B) to, upon the execution of the proposed sublease or assignment to the proposed subtenant or assignee, assume the proposed assignment or sublease so that such prospective sublessee or assignee shall then become the tenant of the Landlord hereunder; or

(C) to permit the Tenant to assign or sublet such space, subject, however, to the Tenant remaining liable for the observance of all of the covenants and provisions of this Lease, including, but not limited to the payment of Term Basic Rent reserved herein, through the entire Term of this Lease. If the rental rate agreed between Tenant and assignee or sublessee is greater than the Term Basic Rent and Additional Rent that Tenant must pay Landlord (computed on the basis of an average square foot rent for the Demised Premises), then all of such excess rental shall be shared equally by Landlord and Tenant; or

(D) to reasonably refuse to consent to Tenant's assignment or sublet and to continue this Lease in full force and effect. The Landlord's refusal to consent shall not be deemed unreasonable if, by way of example and not by way of limitation, the proposed assignment or sublet is to any governmental or quasi-governmental agency or to anyone whose use would impose abnormal or excessive wear and tear on the Demised Premises.

If Landlord should fail to notify Tenant in writing of such election within said thirty (30) day period, Landlord shall be deemed to have elected option (C) above. No future assignment or subletting shall be made except upon compliance with this Section. Any attempted assignment or sublease by Tenant in violation of this Section shall be void. This absolute prohibition against assigning or subletting except in compliance with this Section shall include those by operation of law or statute.

Section 16.04. In any event, except as otherwise provided in Section 16.03, the acceptance by the Landlord of any Basic Rent or Additional Rent from the assignee or from any of the subtenants or the failure of the Tenant to insist upon a strict performance of any of the terms, conditions and covenants herein shall not release the Tenant herein, nor any assignee assuming this Lease, from any and all of the obligations herein during and for the entire Term of this Lease.

Section 16.05. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any sublet or assignment to an Affiliated Company or to any entity into which Tenant has been merged or which is wholly owned by Tenant, or by which Tenant is wholly owned in connection with a joint venture entered into by Tenant shall not be subject to the provisions of Sections 16.01, 16.02, and 16.03(A), (B) and (D). As used herein, Affiliated Company shall mean any corporation related to such party as a parent, subsidiary or brother-sister corporation so that such corporation and such party or such corporation and such party and other corporations constitute a controlled group as determined under Section 1563 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and as elaborated by the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

In the event that any or all of Tenant's interest in the Demised Premises and/or this Lease is transferred by operation of law to any trustee, receiver, or other representative or agent of Tenant, or to Tenant as a debtor in possession, and subsequently any and all of Tenant's interest in the Demised Premises and/or this Lease is offered or to be offered by Tenant or any trustee, receiver, or other representative or agent of Tenant as to its estate or property (such person, firm or entity being hereinafter referred to as the "Grantor"), for assignment, conveyance, lease, or other disposition to a person, firm or entity other than Landlord (each such transaction being hereinafter referred to as a "Disposition"), it is agreed that Landlord has and shall have a right of first refusal to purchase, take, or otherwise acquire, the same upon the same terms and conditions as the Grantor thereof shall accept upon such Disposition to such other person, firm, or entity; and as to each such Disposition the Grantor shall give written notice to Landlord in reasonable detail of all of the terms and conditions of such Disposition within twenty (20) days next following its determination to accept the same but prior to accepting the same, and Grantor shall not make the Disposition until and unless Landlord has failed or refused to accept such right of first refusal as to the Disposition, as set forth herein.

Landlord shall have sixty (60) days next following its receipt of the written notice as to such Disposition in which to exercise the option to acquire Tenant's interest by such Disposition, and the exercise of the option by Landlord shall be effected by notice to that effect sent to the Grantor; but nothing herein shall require Landlord to accept a particular Disposition or any Disposition, nor does the rejection of any one such offer of first refusal constitute a waiver or release of the obligation of the Grantor to submit other offers hereunder to Landlord. In the event Landlord accepts such offer of first refusal, the transaction shall be consummated pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Disposition described in the notice to Landlord. In the event Landlord rejects such offer of first refusal, Grantor may consummate the Disposition with such other person, firm, or entity; but any decrease in price of more than two (2%) percent of the price sought from Landlord or any change in the terms of payment for such Disposition shall constitute a new transaction requiring a further option of first refusal to be given to Landlord hereunder. Without limiting any of the provisions of Article XV, if pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Code (herein the "Code"), or any similar law hereafter enacted having the same general purpose, Landlord declines the right provided it in the preceding paragraph and Tenant is permitted to assign this Lease notwithstanding the restrictions contained in this Lease, adequate assurance of future performance by an assignee expressly permitted under such Code shall be deemed to mean the deposit of cash security in an amount equal to one (1) year's Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent for the next succeeding twelve (12) months (which Additional Rent shall be reasonably estimated by Landlord), which deposit shall be held by Landlord for the balance of the Lease Term, without interest, as security for the full performance of all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, to be held and applied in the same manner specified for security in Section 23.02.

Except as specifically set forth above, no portion of the Demised Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease may be acquired by any other person or entity, whether by assignment, mortgage, sublease, transfer, operation of law or act of the Tenant, nor shall Tenant pledge its interest in this Lease or in any security deposit required hereunder.

Section 16.06. If Tenant is a corporation and if at any time

during the Lease Term the persons owning a majority of its "voting stock" at the time of the execution of this Lease should cease to own a majority of such voting stock (except as the result of transfers by bequest or inheritance), Tenant covenants to notify Landlord of any such transfer and such transfer shall be deemed an assignment of this Lease. In the event of such transfer, Landlord may either (a) not unreasonably withhold its consent thereto or (b) terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant to be effective ninety (90) days after service. This Section shall not apply whenever Tenant is a corporation, the outstanding stock of which is listed on a recognized stock exchange. For the purposes of this Section 16.06, stock ownership shall be determined in accordance with the principles set forth in Section 544 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to and including the date of this Lease, and the term "voting stock" shall refer to shares of stock regularly entitled to vote for the election of directors of the corporation.

Section 16.07. Tenant shall have no claim, and hereby waives the right to any claim, against Landlord for money damages by reason of any refusal, withholding or delaying by Landlord of any consent, and in such event, Tenant's only remedies therefor shall be an action for specific performance, injunction or declaratory judgment to enforce any such requirement. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant may commence such action by means of an order to show cause before the Superior Court of New Jersey, in which event Landlord acknowledges Tenant's rights to an expedited proceeding and to notify Landlord of the institution of the Order to Show Cause by telephone means. Landlord and Tenant further agree that the determination of such Court shall be conclusive and non-appealable.

ARTICLE XVIII

Holding Over

Section 18.01. If the Tenant shall remain in the Demised Premises after the expiration of the Term without having executed and delivered a new lease with the Landlord, such holding over shall not constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease. The Landlord may, at its option, elect to treat the Tenant as one who has not removed at the end of its Term, and thereupon be entitled to all the remedies against the Tenant provided by law in that situation, or the Landlord may elect, at its option, to construe such holding over as a tenancy from month to month, subject to all the terms and conditions of this Lease, except as to duration thereof, and in that event the Tenant shall pay Monthly Basic Rent and Additional Rent in advance in the amount as provided for pursuant to N.J.S.A. 2A:42-6. The time limitations described in this Article XVIII shall not be subject to extension for Force Majeure, except that any increased rental as herein described shall not be applicable for the first thirty (30) days beyond the expiration of the Term if, and only if, said holding over is as a result of Tenant's inability to move its furniture, fixtures and equipment to a new location for reasons attributable to Force Majeure.

ARTICLE XIX

Liens

Section 19.01. Tenant shall not do any act, or make any contract, which may create or be the foundation for any lien or other encumbrance upon any interest of Landlord or any ground or underlying lessor in any portion of the Demised Premises. If, because of any act or omission (or alleged act or omission) of Tenant, any Notice of Intention, mechanic's or other lien, ,charge, or order for the payment of money or other encumbrance shall be filed against Landlord and/or any ground or underlying lessor and/or any portion of the Demised Premises (whether or not such lien, charge, order, or encumbrance is valid or enforceable as such), Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, cause same to be discharged of record or bonded within fifteen (15) days after the filing thereof; and Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless Landlord and all ground and underlying lessor(s) against and from all costs, liabilities, suits, penalties, claims, and demands, including reasonable counsel fees, resulting therefrom. If Tenant fails to comply with the foregoing provisions, Landlord shall have the option of discharging or bonding any such lien, charge, order, or encumbrance, and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for all costs, expenses and other sums of money in connection therewith (as additional rental) with interest at the maximum rate permitted by law promptly upon demand. All materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics, laborers and any other person now or hereafter contracting with Tenant or any contractor or subcontractor of Tenant for the furnishing of any labor services, materials, supplies, or equipment with respect to any portion of the Demised Premises, at any time from the date hereof until the end of the Lease Term, are hereby charged with notice that they look exclusively to Tenant to obtain payment for same.

Tenant covenants and agrees to make no claims for any such loss, damage or injury at any time. Nothing in this Section 20.01 shall be construed to preclude any claim for personal injury by any third party or for any property damage claim by any third party for its property, provided

said property is not under the care, custody or control of Tenant if such loss or injury is due in whole or in part to Landlord's negligence or misconduct or that of its employees or agents. As used herein, third parties include but are not limited to employees, agents, contractors, invitees or any other party not occupying the Demised Premises pursuant to a sublet or license or as a successor or assign of Tenant.

Section 21.01. The Landlord, or its agents, shall have the right to enter the Demised Premises at reasonable hours to examine the same, or to exhibit the Demised Premises to prospective purchasers and to place upon the Demised Premises a suitable "For Sale" sign, which sign must be approved by the Tenant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. For twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Term, the Landlord, or its agents, may exhibit the Demised Premises to prospective tenants and may place the usual "To Let" signs thereon.

Failure of Tenant to deposit the security required by this Section within thirty (30) days after Landlord's written demand shall constitute a material breach of this Lease by Tenant.
