THIS AGREEMENT OF LEASE, made this 27^th day of November, 2006, by and between JLP-LYNNHAVEN VA LLC, a Virginia limited liability company (hereinafter referred to as “Landlord”), with offices at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxx 00000-0000, and DSW INC., an Ohio corporation (hereinafter referred to as “Tenant”) with offices at 0000 Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxx 00000.

W I T N E S S E T H:

SECTION 1. PREMISES

(a) Landlord, in consideration of the rents to be paid and covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant, does hereby lease unto Tenant premises comprised of approximately 20,660 square feet of leasable space with an address of 0000 Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxx, # 000, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000 (the “Premises”) in the shopping center owned by Landlord containing approximately 100,000 square feet of leasable space on approximately 15 acres and commonly known as Lynnhaven East Shopping Center, in the City of Virginia Beach, Boroughs of Lynnhaven and Princess Xxxx and State of Virginia (the “Center”). The location, size, and area of the Premises and of the Center are substantially as shown on Exhibit “A” attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Site Plan”). A legal description of the Center is attached hereto as Exhibit “B” and made a part hereof. The approximate dimensions of the Premises shall be 100’ x 200’ plus any additional square footage for Tenant’s loading dock and/or receiving area.

(b) The square footage specified in Section 1(a) shall be certified to Tenant by Landlord’s architect prior to the Rent Commencement Date (defined in Section 3(b) below). Tenant shall have ninety (90) days from the receipt of such certification to verify or object to Landlord’s measurement. If Tenant objects to Landlord’s measurement within said ninety (90) day period, the parties shall work together in good faith to resolve the differing square footage calculations. In computing the square footage of the Premises, the Premises shall be measured from the exterior surface of exterior walls and the middle of interior walls, excluding the square footage of any mechanical and utility rooms, escalators, elevators, stairs and any other common area space located within the Premises. If the square footage of the Premises as verified and confirmed by Tenant pursuant to this Section 1(b) is less than the size specified in Section 1(a), Base Rent (defined in Section 4(a) below) and other charges shall be proportionately adjusted, but the foregoing shall not be construed as permitting a material variance in dimensions or area.

(c) Landlord covenants that the Center is or shall be developed in accordance with the Site Plan and that it shall be used as a retail shopping center throughout the term of this Lease. Landlord shall not take or consent to any action which materially adversely affects access to, visibility of, parking for or use of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no modification or replacement to the Center shall (i) reduce the ratio of parking spaces (for standard size American cars) to gross leasable area of buildings in the Center below five (5) spaces per 1,000 square feet of leasable space, (ii) alter or make any changes, including any reduction or rearrangement of parking spaces, to that portion of the Center indicated on the Site Plan as the “Protected Area”, (iii) interfere with truck access to the loading doors of the Premises, (iv) materially adversely interfere with customer access to the Premises, (v) materially adversely interfere with the visibility of the Premises from the roads providing direct access to the Center, or (vi) result in the construction of any buildings in the area designated “No Build Area” on the Site Plan. In performing any construction work, repairs or maintenance in the Center permitted under this Lease after Tenant has taken physical possession of the Leased Premises, Landlord shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any interference with parking for, access to or visibility or use of the Premises or the business of Tenant or any subtenant or licensee of Tenant.

SECTION 2. LANDLORD’S AND TENANT’S WORK

(a) Prior to delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant, Landlord shall construct, at its expense, the improvements to the Premises described on Exhibit “C” attached hereto and made a part hereof consistent with plans and specifications approved by Tenant as set

forth in Section 2(e) below (the “Landlord’s Work”). Landlord agrees to deliver the Premises to Tenant with Landlord’s Work substantially completed (as defined in Section 2(c)) on or before June 1, 2007 (the “Delivery Date”). Landlord shall give Tenant notice (the “Estimated Delivery Notice”) no later than March 1, 2007 of the status of Landlord’s construction and the estimated date that Landlord shall deliver the Premises to Tenant with Landlord’s Work substantially completed (the “Estimated Delivery Date”). Landlord may revise the Estimated Delivery Date any time prior to April 1, 2006 (the “Final Delivery Notice Date”), by which time Landlord shall have given Tenant a final notice (the “Final Delivery Notice”) of a firm delivery date (the “Final Delivery Date”) upon which the Landlord’s Work shall be substantially completed and the Leased Premises delivered to Tenant. Upon the sending of the Final Delivery Notice, Landlord shall have no further right to modify the Final Delivery Date. Neither the Estimated Delivery Date nor the Final Delivery Date shall be (y) earlier than (i) thirty (30) days after the date Tenant receives the Estimated Delivery Notice or the Final Delivery Notice, as applicable. If Landlord does not provide a Final Delivery Notice on or before the earlier of the Final Delivery Notice Date and thirty (30) days prior to the Estimated Delivery Date or if the date provided for in such Final Delivery Notice does not comply with the requirements of this Section 2, the Estimated Delivery Date shall be deemed to be the Final Delivery Date, provided such date complies with the requirements of this Section 2. If Landlord does not provide an Estimated Delivery Date on or before the Final Delivery Notice Date or if such date does not comply with the requirements of this Section 2, then the Final Delivery Date shall be deemed to be the Delivery Date.

(b) In the event that the Premises and Landlord’s Work are not substantially completed and delivered to Tenant on or before the Final Delivery Date, the Base Rent due hereunder shall be adjusted so that, after the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall receive a credit against Base Rent thereafter due Landlord equal to one (1) day of Base Rent for each day after the Final Delivery Date until delivery of the Premises is made to Tenant consistent with the terms of this Lease, including substantial completion of the Landlord’s Work.

Landlord shall complete the punch list items within thirty (30) days of the date Tenant notifies Landlord of same. Upon performance of such punch list, Tenant shall promptly acknowledge Landlord’s completion thereof. Punch list items shall not be deemed completed until an authorized representative of Tenant has provided Landlord written acknowledgment of same. Landlord agrees that any and all work performed by Landlord after delivery of the Leased Premises to Tenant shall not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s performance of Tenant’s Work, and Landlord shall be responsible for any and all costs resulting from any such unreasonable interference.

(d) Actual possession of the Premises shall have been delivered to Tenant water-tight, free of Hazardous Substances, in a good, structurally sound condition, with all of Landlord’s Work substantially completed, which substantial completion shall be evidenced by Landlord’s architect to Tenant.

(e) The Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work shall be performed (i) in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with plans and specifications approved by the other party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (ii) in compliance with all applicable governmental codes, laws, ordinances and regulations.

(f) Landlord and Tenant agree that they shall conduct a joint walk through of the Premises approximately two (2) weeks prior to the Final Delivery Date to ascertain the status of Landlord’s construction. Tenant agrees to provide, at its expense, upon delivery of the Premises to Tenant, the improvements to the Premises described on Exhibit “D” attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Tenant’s Work”).

2. The architect engaged by Landlord shall execute a certificate of completion that the Premises has been constructed in a good and workmanlike manner in accordance with the plans and specifications approved by Tenant and the other requirements for Landlord’s Work hereunder.

3. Tenant shall have been furnished with a fully executed original of a commercially reasonable non-disturbance and attornment agreement pursuant to Section 11 hereof.

4. Tenant shall have been notified no later than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the Final Delivery Date of all applicable local governmental authority code requirements, if any, for the installation of Tenant’s fixtures at the Premises and for low voltage electrical work in connection with the installation of Tenant’s music, telephone and security systems at the Premises.

(f) Beginning on the date of this Lease and ending on the Commencement Date, Tenant, its employees and agents shall have the right to enter the Premises or any part thereof at reasonable times during regular business hours for the purpose of making such inspections as Tenant may deem reasonably necessary. In consideration of Tenant’s right to inspect the Premises, Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from any and all loss, damage, claims, costs, demands or expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) resulting from such entry on the Premises by Tenant or its agents.

SECTION 4. MINIMUM RENT

From and after the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant covenants and agrees to pay on a monthly basis during the term “Base Rent” in the following amounts to Landlord at the address listed above or such other place as Landlord may by thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Tenant direct:

(a) For the Initial Term of the Lease Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, as Base Rent for the Premises, equal consecutive monthly installments of Twenty-five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) [which is calculated at Twenty Dollars ($20.00) per square foot using 15,000 square feet as the size of the Premises], commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, and continuing on the first day of each calendar month during the Initial Term of the Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Tenant’s annual gross sales from the Premises reach Four Million One-hundred Forty Thousand Dollars ($4,140,000.00) in any Lease Year during the Initial Term hereof (the “Gross Sales Threshold”), then Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, as Base Rent for the Premises in each lease year thereafter, equal consecutive monthly installments of Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000,00) [which is calculated at Twenty Dollars ($20.00) per square foot using 18,000 square feet as the size of the Premises], commencing on the first month of the Lease Year following Tenant’s annual statement of gross sales evidencing the Gross Sales Threshold which statement shall provided to Landlord in accordance with Section 6 (e) below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Tenant’s annual gross sales from the Premises reach Four Million Seven Hundred Fifty-one Thousand Eight Hundred Dollars ($4,751,800.00) in any Lease Year during the Initial Term hereof (the “Second Gross Sales Threshold”) then Tenant

agrees to pay to Landlord in each Lease Year thereafter, as Base Rent for the Premises, equal monthly installments of Thirty-four Thousand Four Hundred Thirty-three and 33/100 Dollars ($34,433.33) [which is calculated at Twenty Dollars ($20.00) per square foot using 20,660 square feet as the size of the Premises], commencing on the first month of the Lease Year following Tenant’s annual statement of gross sales evidencing the Second Gross Sales Threshold which statement shall be provided to Landlord in accordance with Section 6 (e) below. The square feet figures set forth above which are used to calculate Base Rent payments under this Section 4(a) shall be referred to as “Rentable Square Feet”. The monthly installments of Base Rent payable under this Section 4 shall be paid in advance on or before the first day of each calendar month from and after the Rent Commencement Date during the term hereof without notice or demand therefor and without any offsets or deductions whatsoever except as otherwise provided in this Lease. Base Rent for any partial month shall be prorated based upon a thirty (30) day month. Base Rent for any Initial Period shall be the same as the Base Rent for the first Lease Year. As used in this Lease, “Rent” shall mean Base Rent in addition to all other sums due and owing from Tenant to Landlord under this Lease.

(b) Provided Tenant has fully complied with all of the terms, provisions, and conditions on its part to be performed under this Lease and is not in default under this Lease, Tenant may, by giving written notice to the Landlord at least six (6) months on or before the expiration of the Initial Term of this Lease, extend such term for a period of five (5) years upon the same covenants and agreements as are herein set forth. The Base Rent during the first renewal term shall be the same as the Base Rent paid by Tenant in Lease Year fifteen (15) of the Initial Term hereof unless Tenant’s annual gross sales from the Premises reach Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00), whereupon Base Rent shall be increased by ten percent (10%) for the Lease Years remaining in such first renewal term.

(c) Provided Tenant has fully complied with all of the terms, provisions, and conditions on its part to be performed under this Lease and is not in default under this Lease, Tenant may, by giving written notice to the Landlord at least six (6) months on or before the expiration of the first renewal term of this Lease, extend such term for a period of five (5) years upon the same covenants and agreements as are herein set forth. The Base Rent during the second renewal term shall be the same as the Base Rent paid by Tenant in the last Lease Year of the first renewal term unless Tenant’s annual gross sales from the Premises reach Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00), whereupon Base Rent shall be increased by ten percent (10%) for the Lease Years remaining in such second renewal term.

(d) Provided Tenant has fully complied with all of the terms, provisions, and conditions on its part to be performed under this Lease and is not in default under this Lease, Tenant may, by giving written notice to the Landlord at least six (6) months on or before the expiration of the second renewal term of this Lease, extend such term for a period of five (5) years upon the same covenants and agreements as are herein set forth. The Base Rent during the third renewal term shall be the same as the Base Rent paid by Tenant in the last Lease Year of the second renewal term unless Tenant’s annual gross sales from the Premises reach Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00), whereupon Base Rent shall be increased by ten percent (10%) for the Lease Years remaining in such third renewal term. The initial term and any renewal term(s) are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “term”.

(e) In the event any sums required under this Lease to be paid are not received when due, then all such amounts shall bear interest from the due date thereof until the date paid at the rate of interest equal to two percent (2%) over the prime rate in effect from time to time as established by National City Bank, Columbus, Ohio (the “Interest Rate”), and shall be due and payable by Tenant without notice or demand, Tenant shall pay the foregoing interest thereon in addition to all default remedies of Landlord pursuant to Section 33 below.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, Tenant shall initially pay to Landlord as additional Rent, simultaneously with the payment of Base Rent, payable in equal monthly installments, the estimated monthly amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Maintenance Costs (provided for in Section 15 hereof), Real Estate Taxes (provided for in Section 27 hereof) and insurance (provided for in Section 28 hereof).

SECTION 5. PERCENTAGE RENT

(a) Beginning with the first Lease Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to Base Rent, upon the conditions and at the times hereinafter set forth, percentage rent equal to two percent (2%) of Tenant’s gross sales (as hereinafter defined) in excess of the number obtained by dividing (a) Base Rent for the applicable lease year by (b) the number .02. The annual percentage rent shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within ninety (90) days after the end of each Lease Year. Each such payment shall be accompanied by a statement signed by an authorized representative of Tenant setting forth Tenant’s gross sales for such Lease Year. For purposes of permitting verification by Landlord of the gross sales reported by Tenant, Landlord shall have the right, not more than one (1) time per Lease Year, upon not less than five (5) business days notice to Tenant, to audit during normal business hours in Tenant’s corporate office, Tenant’s books and records relating to Tenant’s gross sales for a period of two (2) years after the end of each Lease Year. Landlord agrees that no contingency fee auditor shall be employed by Landlord for the purpose of conducting any such audit. If such an audit reveals that Tenant has understated its gross sales by more than three percent (3%) for any Lease Year, Tenant, in addition to paying the additional percentage rent due, shall pay the reasonable cost of the audit within thirty (30) days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s demand for the same and copies of all bills or invoices on which such cost is based.

(b) Each Lease Year shall constitute a separate accounting period, and the computation of percentage rental due for any one period shall be based on the gross sales for such Lease Year.

(c) The term “gross sales” as used in this Lease is hereby defined to mean the gross dollar aggregate of all sales or rental or manufacture or production of merchandise and all services, income and other receipts whatsoever of all business conducted in, at or from any part of the Premises, whether for cash, credit, check, charge account, gift or merchandise certificate purchased or for other disposition of value regardless of collection. Should any departments, divisions or parts of Lessee’s business be conducted by any subleases, concessionaires, licensees, assignees or others, then there shall be included in Lessee’s gross sales, all “gross sales” of such department, division or part, whether the receipts be obtained at the Premises or elsewhere in the same manner as if such business had been conducted by Lessee. Gross sales shall exclude the following: (i) all credit, refunds, and allowances granted to customers; (ii) all excise taxes, sales taxes, and other taxes levied or imposed by any governmental authority upon or in connection with such sales; (iii) bulk sales of goods in connection with the sale of Tenant’s business; (iv) sales of fixtures, furniture, equipment and other items not made in the ordinary course of business; (v) salvage sales of damaged merchandise; (vi) discount sales made to employees of the Tenant and Tenant’s subsidiaries and affiliated corporations, if any; (vii) exchanges of merchandise between Tenant’s warehouse or other stores and other similar movements of merchandise; (viii) returns to suppliers; (ix) the proceeds from vending machines and coin operated telephones and commissions on such proceeds to the extent such proceeds and commissions are less than five percent (5%) of Gross Sales exclusive of such proceeds and commissions; (x) uncollectible customer charges and bad checks; (xi) disallowed credit card amounts and credit card service charges or fees retained by the credit card company; (xii) delivery charges; and (xiii) customer credit insurance.

(d) The percentage rental, if any, shall be paid within ninety (90) days after the end of each lease year, accompanied by a statement in writing signed by Tenant setting forth its gross sales from the sale of all items for such lease year. Tenant shall keep at its principal executive offices, where now or hereafter located, true and accurate accounts of all receipts from the Premises. Landlord, its agents and accountants, shall have access to such records at any and all times during regular business hours for the purpose of examining or auditing the same. Tenant shall also furnish to Landlord any and all supporting data in its possession relating to gross sales and any deductions therefrom as Landlord may reasonably require. Landlord agrees to keep any information obtained therefrom confidential, except as may be required for Landlord’s tax returns, or in the event of litigation or arbitration where such matters are material.

(e) Tenant shall at all times maintain accurate records which shall be available for Landlord’s inspection at any reasonable time.

(f) If Landlord, for any reason, questions or disputes any statement of percentage rental prepared by Tenant, then Landlord, at its own expense, may employ such non-contingency fee accountants as Landlord may select to audit and determine the amount of gross sales for the period or periods covered by such statements. If the report of the accountants employed by Landlord shall show any additional percentage rental payable by Tenant, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord such additional percentage rental plus interest at one (1) point over the prime rate, commencing on the date such percentage rentals should have been paid, within thirty (30) days after such report has been forwarded to Tenant, unless Tenant shall, within said thirty (30) day period, notify Landlord that Tenant questions or disputes the correctness of such report. In the event that Tenant questions or disputes the correctness of such report, the accountants employed by Tenant and the accountants employed by Landlord shall endeavor to reconcile the question(s) or dispute(s) within thirty (30) days after the notice from Tenant questioning or disputing the report of Landlord’s accountants. In the event that it is finally determined by the parties that Tenant has understated percentage rent for any Lease year by three percent (3%) or more, Tenant shall pay the cost of the audit. Furthermore, if Tenant’s gross sales cannot be verified due to the insufficiency or inadequacy of Tenant’s records, then Tenant shall pay the cost of the audit. The cost of any audit resulting from failure to report percentage rent after written notification of default shall be at the sole cost of Tenant.

(d) Whenever, pursuant to the REA, the consent or approval of Landlord shall be required by or requested, and such consent or approval could diminish the rights or increase the obligations of Tenant thereunder or under this Lease, or could adversely affect Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, or the conduct of Tenant’s business therein, such consent or approval

shall not be granted without the prior written consent of Tenant, which consent may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion.

(e) Landlord shall not amend, or modify the REA if such amendment or modification could diminish the rights or increase the obligations of Tenant thereunder of under this Lease, or could adversely affect Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises or the conduct of Tenant’s business therein, nor shall Landlord terminate the REA.

10. As of the date of this Lease, there are no sign ordinances, restrictive covenants, uniform sign plans or other signage restrictions which would prevent the Premises from having the signage (including, without limitation, the square foot area and size of letters) as depicted on Exhibit “F” hereof.

SECTION 7. RIGHT TO REMODEL

(a) Tenant may, at Tenant’s expense, make repairs and alterations to the interior non-structural portions of the Premises and remodel the interior of the Premises, excepting structural and exterior changes, in such manner and to such extent as may from time to time be deemed necessary by Tenant for adapting to the Premises to the requirements and uses of Tenant and for the installation of its fixtures, appliances and equipment. Any structural or exterior alteration may only be made by Tenant with the prior written approval of Landlord, which approval may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion. All plans for any structural alterations shall

be submitted to Landlord for endorsement of its approval prior to commencement of work. Upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall be obligated, if it remodels and/or alters the Premises, to restore the Premises upon vacating the same. Tenant will indemnify and save harmless the Landlord from and against all mechanics liens or claims by reason of repairs, alterations or improvements which may be made by Tenant to the Premises. Inasmuch as any such alterations, additions or other work in or to the Premises may constitute or create a hazard, inconvenience or annoyance to the public and other tenants in the Center, Tenant shall, if so directed in writing by Landlord, erect barricades, temporarily close the Premises, or affected portion thereof, to the public or take whatever measures are necessary to protect the building containing the Premises, the public and the other tenants of the Center for the duration of such alterations, additions or other work. If Landlord determines, in its sole judgment, that Tenant has failed to take any of such necessary protective measures, and Tenant fails to cure same within ten (10) days after notice thereof, Landlord may do so and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost thereof within ten (10) days after Landlord bills Tenant therefor.

(b) All such work, including Tenant’s Work pursuant to Exhibit “D” shall be performed lien free by Tenant. In the event a mechanic’s lien is filed against the premises or the Center, Tenant shall discharge or bond off same within ten (10) days from the filing thereof. If Tenant fails to discharge said lien, Landlord may bond off or pay same without inquiring into the validity or merits of such lien, and all sums so advanced shall be paid on demand by Tenant as additional rent.

SECTION 8. UTILITIES

(a) Prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord shall provide, at Landlord’s expense, by separate meter, electric, water, sewer, and other utilities to the Premises sufficient to meet Tenant’s requirements. Landlord shall further provide, or cause to be provided, all such utility services to the Premises during the term of this Lease. Tenant agrees to be responsible and pay for all public utility services rendered or furnished to the Premises during the term hereof, including, but not limited to, heat, water, gas, electric, steam, telephone service and sewer services, together with all taxes, levies or other charges on such utility services when the same become due and payable. Tenant shall be responsible for all utility services and costs inside the premises. Landlord shall not be liable for the quality or quantity of or interference involving such utilities unless due directly to Landlord’s negligence.

(b) During the term hereof, whether the Premises are occupied or unoccupied, Tenant agrees to maintain heat sufficient to heat the Premises so as to avert any damage to the Premises on account of cold weather.

(c) Tenant agrees to be responsible for its rubbish removal from the Premises. Tenant shall be permitted to maintain and operate, at no extra charge: (i) a trash compactor in the portion of the Common Areas designated on Site Plan as “Trash Compactor Pad”; and (ii) a trash container(s) in the portion(s) of the Common Areas designated on Site Plan as “Trash Container Pad”. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall keep the trash compactor and containers neat and clean and repair any damage caused by use and storage of such compactor and containers.

SECTION 9. GLASS

The Tenant shall maintain the glass part of the Premises, promptly replacing any breakage and fully saving the Landlord harmless from any loss, cost or damage resulting from such breakage or the replacement thereof.

SECTION 10. PERSONAL PROPERTY

The Tenant further agrees that all personal property of every kind or description that may at any time be in or on the Premises shall be at the Tenant’s sole risk, or at the risk of those claiming under the Tenant, and that the Landlord shall not be liable for any damage to said property or loss suffered by the business or occupation of the Tenant caused in any manner whatsoever.

SECTION 11. RIGHT TO MORTGAGE

(a) Landlord reserves the right to subject and subordinate this Lease at all times to the lien of any deed of trust, mortgage or mortgages now or hereafter placed upon Landlord’s interest in the Premises; provided, however, that no default by Landlord, under any deed of trust, mortgage or mortgages, shall affect Tenant’s rights under this Lease, so long as Tenant performs the obligations imposed upon it hereunder and is not in default hereunder, and Tenant attorns to the holder of such deed of trust or mortgage, its assignee or the purchaser at any foreclosure sale. Any such subordination shall be contingent upon Tenant receiving a commercially reasonable subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement (“SNDA”). It is a condition, however, to the subordination and lien provisions herein provided, that Landlord shall procure from any such mortgagee an agreement in writing, which shall be delivered to Tenant or contained in an SNDA, providing in substance that so long as Tenant shall faithfully discharge the obligations on its part to be kept and performed under the terms of this Lease and is not in default under the terms hereof, its tenancy will not be disturbed nor this Lease affected by any default under such mortgage. The parties acknowledge that the SNDA attached hereto as Exhibit “I” is commercially reasonable. Landlord represents and warrants that, as of the date of this Lease and the Commencement Date, there are no mortgages, ground leases or other encumbrances that could dispossess Tenant’s leasehold interest hereunder (collectively, “Mortgages”) on Landlord’s fee title to the Center other than that certain Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents and Security Agreement granted by Landlord in favor of Key Bank National Association and recorded on September 6, 2006 in the City of Virginia Beach Recorder’s Office as Document Number 20060906001348180 (the “Mortgage”). Landlord agrees that Tenant’s obligations under this Lease shall be contingent upon Tenant entering into an SNDA with the holder of such Mortgage on or before the Commencement Date.

(b) Wherever notice is required to be given to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease, Tenant will likewise give such notice to any mortgagee of Landlord’s interest in the Premises upon notice of such mortgagee’s name and address from Landlord. Furthermore, such mortgagee shall have the same rights to cure any default on the part of Landlord that Landlord would have had.

SECTION 12. SUBLEASE OR ASSIGNMENT

(a) Tenant may assign Tenant’s interest in this Lease or sublet all or any portion of the Premises to a nationally or regionally recognized retailer without Landlord’s consent. Any other assignment or subletting not specifically provided for in this Section 12 shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord’s review of the proposed assignee or subtenant shall be limited to business reputation, business experience, a retail use compatible with then existing tenant mix of the Center, and financial ability to perform its obligations under this Lease or the proposed sublease, as the case may be. In any such event, Tenant shall remain fully and primarily liable hereunder. Tenant’s right to assign or sublet shall be subject to any then existing exclusives or primary use exclusives for tenants leasing more than 15,000 square feet of space in the Center.

Tenant may, without the consent of Landlord, (i) grant licenses and/or concessions within the Premises or (ii) assign or sublet all or any portion of the Premises to (a) any parent, affiliate or subsidiary corporation of Tenant; (b) a transferee or successor by merger, consolidation or acquisition of Tenant or its parent or subsidiary; or (c) a transferee with a good business reputation who is acquiring all or substantially all of the stores of Tenant in the State of Virginia or the assets of Tenant, its parent or subsidiary. Any such assignee or sublessee shall be bound by the terms of this Lease. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord in the ordinary course of its business an instrument whereby the assignee or entity succeeding to Tenant’s interest hereunder agrees to be bound by the terms of this Lease.

(b) Landlord may assign Landlord’s interest in this Lease without the consent of Tenant (a) to any entity to which Landlord transfers its fee interest in the Premises provided such entity (i) agrees in writing to be bound by all the terms of this Lease and (ii) such assignment is pursuant to a bona fide arm’s length transaction not designed to reduce Landlord’s liability or to otherwise exempt Landlord from any provision of this Lease or (b) subject to Section 12, as security for any indebtedness undertaken by Landlord.

SECTION 13. COMMON AREAS

Landlord grants to Tenant and its customers, agents, employees, licensees, invitees and subtenants, a non-exclusive easement in common with the other tenants of the Center for the use of all Common Areas. Landlord hereby covenants and agrees that Landlord shall not grant any party other than tenants of the Center and their customers, agents, employees, licensees, invitees and subtenants a right to utilize the parking areas in the Center, and Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to restrict the use of the parking areas to such parties. “Common Areas” means all areas and facilities in the Center provided and so designated by Landlord and made available by Landlord in the exercise of good business judgment for the common use and benefit of tenants of the Center and their customers, employees and invitees. Common Areas shall include (to the extent the same are constructed), but not be limited to, the parking areas, sidewalks, landscaped areas, corridors, stairways, boundary walls and fences, incinerators, truckways, service roads, and service areas not reserved for the exclusive use of Tenant or other tenants.

SECTION 14. OPERATION OF COMMON AREAS

(a) From and after the Commencement Date, Landlord, at its cost and expense, shall operate the Center and maintain the Common Areas and the Center in a clean and safe condition and repair so that Tenant and its customers, guests, invitees, licensees, officers and employees can use and enjoy the same. The obligations of Landlord pursuant hereto shall include, without limitation, the maintenance of the Center and any pylon structure(s) (excluding therefrom Tenant’s advertising panels), regular cleaning of the Common Areas, removal of trash and debris from the Common Areas, repairing the asphalt and concrete portions of the Common Areas (including potholes, curbs and sidewalks), repairing common utility lines and facilities, repairing storm drains, repairing parking lot lights, maintaining the landscaped portion of the Common Areas (including regular grass cutting), maintaining floodlights and other necessary means of illumination sufficient to illuminate the Common Areas during twilight and evening hours that Tenant’s store is open for business and in operation, prompt removal of snow and ice on every occasion where safety of the Common Areas or access to the Premises is impeded, and periodic restriping of the parking area. Landlord covenants that such maintenance and repair shall be planned and preventative maintenance undertaken in order to maintain the Common Areas in a good and usable condition and so as to avoid any breakdown of maintenance and avoidable costly repairs. Landlord shall at all times have exclusive control of the Common Areas and may at any time and from time to time: (i) promulgate, modify and amend reasonable rules and regulations for the use of the Common Areas, which rules and regulations shall be binding upon Tenant upon delivery of a copy thereof to Tenant; (ii) temporarily close any part of the Common Areas, including but not limited to closing the streets, sidewalks, road or other facilities to the extent necessary to prevent a dedication thereof or the accrual of rights of any person or of the public therein; (iii) exclude and restrain anyone from the use or occupancy of the Common Areas or any part thereof except bona fide customers and suppliers of the tenants of the Center who use said areas in accordance with the rules and regulations established by Landlord; and (iv) engage others to operate and maintain all or any part of the Common Areas, on such terms and conditions as Landlord shall, in its sole judgment, deem reasonable and proper; and (v) make such changes in the Common Areas as in its opinion are in the best interest of the Center, including but not limited to changing the location of walkways, service areas, driveways, entrances, existing automobile parking spaces and other facilities, changing the direction and flow of traffic and establishing prohibited areas; provided, however, that any such change shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 1(c) of this Lease.

(b) Tenant shall keep all Common Areas free of obstructions created or permitted by Tenant. Tenant shall permit the use of the Common Areas only for normal parking and ingress and egress by its customers and suppliers to and from the Premises. If in Landlord’s opinion unauthorized persons are using any of the Common Areas by reason of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, Landlord shall have the right at any time to remove any such unauthorized persons from said areas or to restrain unauthorized persons from said areas. Landlord, Tenant, and others constructing improvements or making repairs or alterations in the Center shall have the right to make reasonable use of portions of the Common Areas.

(c) Throughout the term, Landlord shall keep the Common Areas fully lighted and open to the customers of the Center seven (7) days a week from dusk until 11:00 p.m. Monday

through Saturday and until 7:00 p.m. on Sunday (“Normal Hours”). Upon request of Tenant, Landlord shall keep the Common Areas lighted for as long as after Normal Hours as Tenant shall request, provided Tenant shall pay for a share of the reasonable cost of said requested lighting, which share shall be equal to the product of (i) such costs, and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of square feet of leasable space within the Premises and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate number of square feet of leasable space of all premises within the Center (including the Premises) open later than Normal Hours (excluding, however, those tenants and occupants who separately control and pay for their own Common Area lighting). In addition to the foregoing, Landlord shall provide for low level security lighting from one (1) hour after the close of business in the Premises until xxxx.

SECTION 15. COMMON AREA MAINTENANCE, TENANT’S SHARE

(a) Tenant shall initially pay to Landlord as additional rental, simultaneously with the payment of Base Rent called for under Section 4(a), the estimated monthly amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the “Maintenance Costs” (as defined in Section 15(b) below) for the operation and maintenance of the Common Areas as set forth in Section 4(c), One and 75/100 Dollars ($1.75) per square foot based on the Rentable Square Feet then in effect under Section 5(a) above.

(b) The Maintenance Costs for the common areas shall be computed on an accrual basis, under generally accepted accounting principles, and shall include all costs of operating, maintaining, repairing and replacing the common areas, including by way of example but not limitation: (i) cost of labor (including worker’s compensation insurance, employee benefits and payroll taxes); (ii) materials, and supplies used or consumed in the maintenance or operation of the common area; (iii) the cost of operating and repairing of the lighting; (iv) cleaning, painting, removing of rubbish or debris, snow and ice, private security services, and inspecting the common areas; (v) the cost of repairing and/or replacing paving, curbs, walkways, markings, directional or other signs; landscaping, and drainage and lighting facilities; (vi) rental paid for maintenance of machinery and equipment; and (vii) a reasonable allowance to Landlord for Landlord’s supervision, which allowance shall not in an accounting year exceed five percent (5%) of the total of all Maintenance Costs (excluding insurance costs) for such accounting year (all of the foregoing are collectively referred to herein as “Maintenance Costs”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following shall be excluded, deducted or credited from Maintenance Costs when computing Tenant’s Proportionate Share of same: (a) Net recoveries received by Landlord from tenants as a result of any act, omission, default or negligence or as the result of breaches by tenants of the provisions of their leases and/or other amounts received by Landlord from third parties, which recoveries and/or amounts reimburse Landlord for or reduce Maintenance Costs; (b) Gross revenues from charges, if any, made for the use of the parking facilities and other Common Areas or facilities of the Center (including, without limitation, the sale or rental of advertising space); (c) The cost of the land underlying and the construction of the Center, whether initially or in connection with any replacement or expansion thereof and whether mandated by law or otherwise, including, without limitation, costs of correcting (I) defective conditions in the Center resulting from defects in or inadequacy of the initial design or construction of the same, or (II) code violations, including the payment of fines or citations in connection therewith; (d) The depreciation or amortization of the Center or any part thereof or any equipment or other property used in connection therewith; (e) the initial cost of the installation of the parking areas or facilities or the amortization or depreciation of such initial cost; (f) The cost of providing or performing improvements, work or repairs to or within (I) any portion of the premises of any other tenants or occupants in the Center, (II) any other building which is not part of the Common Areas or (III) any portion of the Center the use of which is not available to Tenant; (g) Any reserves for future expenditures or liabilities which would be incurred subsequent to the then current accounting year; (h) Any bad debt loss, rent loss or reserves for bad debt or rent loss; (i) Legal fees, audit fees, leasing commissions, advertising expenses and other costs incurred in connection with (I) the original development or original leasing of the Center, (II) the future re-leasing of the Center, (III) any advertising or promotion of the Center or any part thereof, and (IV) disputes with other tenants or third parties; (j) Costs of repairing or restoring any portion of the Center damaged or destroyed by any casualty or peril whether insured, uninsured or uninsurable; (k) Costs in connection with the cleanup or removal of hazardous materials; (l) The cost of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, and all regulations promulgated pursuant thereto; (m) Net

recoveries from insurance policies taken out by Landlord to the extent that the proceeds reimburse Landlord for expenses which have previously been included or which would otherwise be included in Maintenance Costs; (n) Contributions to Maintenance Costs by tenants or occupants whose space is permitted by provisions in the Lease to be excluded from the denominator of the Tenant’s Proportionate Share; (o) Costs associated with repairs or improvements the need for which arose prior to the date of this Lease; (p) Any otherwise permissible fees or costs to the extent in excess of prevailing and competitive rates; (q) Costs of a capital nature, including all capital improvements, alterations, repairs and/or replacements (for purposes of this Lease, “costs of a capital nature” shall mean the cost of any item or service the useful life of which exceeds 36 months); (r) Costs relating to the negligence of Landlord or its contractors, agents or employees or the payment of any claims or damages relating to the same; (s) Any insurance costs.

(c) Landlord shall maintain accurate and detailed records of all Maintenance Costs for the common areas in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For purposes of this Lease, “Tenant’s Proportionate Share” shall be the product of the applicable cost or expense multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the gross leasable area (expressed in square feet) of the Premises and the denominator of which shall be the gross leasable area (expressed in square feet) of all leasable space in the Center. Tenant’s Proportionate Share of that portion of the Center owned by Landlord is estimated to be fifteen percent (15%), during the first Lease Year.

(d) The actual amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of all Maintenance Costs shall be computed by Landlord within one hundred eighty (180) days after the end of each accounting year (which Landlord may change from time to time). At this time Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement showing in reasonable detail the actual Maintenance Costs incurred during such accounting year and Tenant’s Proportionate Share thereof (prorated for any partial Lease year, with appropriate adjustments to reflect any change in the floor area of the premises or the gross leasable area of a building occurring during such accounting year). Any excess payments from Tenant shall be applied to the next installments of the Maintenance Costs hereunder, or refunded by Landlord. Any underpayments by Tenant shall be paid to Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt of such reconciliation statement. Tenant’s estimated monthly Maintenance Cost hereunder may be adjusted by written notice from Landlord. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 15 to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant agree that the actual amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Maintenance Costs, excluding costs for snow and ice removal, shall not increase by more than five percent (5%) in any lease year over the previous Lease Year, and that Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Maintenance Costs for the first lease year, excluding costs for snow and ice removal, shall not exceed One and 75/100 Dollars ($1.75) per square foot.

(e) If Tenant, for any reason in the exercise of good business judgment, questions or disputes any statement of Maintenance Costs prepared by Landlord, then Tenant, at its own expense, may employ such accountants as Tenant may select to review Landlord’s books and records solely with respect to Maintenance Costs during the prior two Lease years and to determine the amount of Maintenance Costs for the period or periods covered by such statements. If the report of the accountants employed by Tenant shall show any overcharge paid by Tenant, then Tenant shall receive a credit from Landlord for such difference. Any underpayment shall be paid by Tenant. Tenant agrees that no contingency fee auditors shall be employed by Tenant for the purpose of conducting any such audit. In the event that Landlord questions or disputes the correctness of such report, the accountants employed by Tenant and the accountants employed by Landlord shall endeavor to reconcile the question(s) or dispute(s) within thirty (30) days after the notice from Tenant questioning or disputing the report of Landlord’s accountants. In the event that it is finally determined by the parties that Landlord has overstated Maintenance Costs for any Lease year by three percent (3%) or more, Landlord shall pay the reasonable cost of the audit. Furthermore, if Landlord’s Maintenance Costs cannot be verified due to the insufficiency or inadequacy of Landlord’s records, then Landlord shall pay the cost of the audit.

SECTION 16. EMINENT DOMAIN

(a) In the event the entire premises or any part thereof shall be taken or condemned either permanently or temporarily for any public or quasi-public use or purpose by any

competent authority in appropriation proceedings or by any right of eminent domain, the entire compensation or award therefore, including leasehold, reversion and fee, shall belong to the Landlord and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in and to such award.

(b) In the event that only a portion of the Premises, not exceeding twenty percent (20%) of same, shall be so taken or condemned, and the portion of the Premises not taken can be repaired within ninety (90) days from the date of which possession is taken for the public use so as to be commercially fit for the operation of Tenant’s business, the Landlord at its own expense shall so repair the portion of the Premises not taken and there shall be an equitable abatement of rent for the remainder of the term and/or extended terms. The entire award paid on account thereof shall be paid to the Landlord. If the portion of the Premises not taken cannot be repaired within ninety (90) days from the date of which possession is taken so as to be commercially fit for the operation of Tenant’s business, then this Lease shall terminate and become null and void from the time possession of the portion taken is required for public use, and from that date on the parties hereto shall be released from all further obligations hereunder except as herein stated and Tenant shall have no claim for any compensation on account of its leasehold interest. No other taking, appropriation or condemnation shall cause this Lease to be terminated. Any such appropriation or condemnation proceedings shall not operate as or be deemed an eviction of Tenant or a breach of Landlord’s covenant of quiet enjoyment and Tenant shall have no claim for any compensation on account of its leasehold interest.

(c) In the event that more than twenty percent (20%) of the Premises shall at any time be taken by public or quasi-public use or condemned under eminent domain, then at the option of the Landlord or Tenant upon the giving of thirty (30) days written notice (after such taking or condemnation), this Lease shall terminate and expire as of the date of such taking and any prepaid rental shall be prorated as of the effective date of such termination.

SECTION 17. TENANT’S TAXES

Tenant further covenants and agrees to pay promptly when due all taxes assessed against Tenant’s fixtures, furnishings, equipment and stock-in trade placed in or on the Premises during the term of this Lease.

SECTION 18. RISK OF GOODS

All personal property, goods, machinery, and merchandise in said Premises shall be at Tenant’s risk if damaged by water, fire, explosion, wind or accident of any kind, and Landlord shall have no responsibility therefore or liability for any of the foregoing and Tenant hereby releases Landlord from such liability.

SECTION 19. USE AND OCCUPANCY

(a) Tenant agrees to initially open and operate a DSW for the retail sales of shoes and other footwear in the Premises, fully staffed and stocked and equivalent to other DSW stores operated by Tenant in the State of Virginia. The Premises during the term of this Lease shall be occupied for the operating and conducting therein of a retail shoe store or any other lawful retail purpose. Any use other than a retail shoe store shall be consistent with the then existing character of the Center, and shall not violate those exclusives and prohibited uses set forth on Exhibit “E” attached hereto and made a part hereof, which are the exclusives and prohibited uses in effect for the Center as of the date hereof, for so long as and to the extent said exclusives and prohibited uses are still in full force and effect, as well as exclusives and prohibited uses hereafter granted for tenants leasing more than 15,000 square feet of space elsewhere within the Center, for so long as and to the extent said exclusives are still in full force and effect.

(b) For so long as Tenant is continuously and regularly operating its business in the Premises, Landlord will not hereafter lease any space within the Center or permit any space within the Center to be used by any person, persons, partnership or entity who devotes ten percent (10%) or more of its selling area to the sale of footwear (the “Exclusive Use”). The foregoing limitation shall not apply to typical shoe departments found in department stores, junior department stores, general merchandise and discount stores, and clothing retailers, such as Filene’s Basement, Marshalls, TJ Maxx and similar type stores so long as such tenants are

operating their prototypical shoe department. Any portion of the Center which is sold by Landlord during the term shall contain a deed restriction incorporating the foregoing Exclusive Use.

In the event an owner of an existing leasehold interest at the Center who has the right as of the date hereof to engage in the Exclusive Use (an “Excluded Leasehold”), and such owner desires to assign or sublet its leasehold interest in the Center, or any part thereof, and in connection therewith Landlord’s consent is required or requested, whether with respect to such assignment or subletting or any modification of such Excluded Leasehold in connection therewith, then Landlord agrees that it shall condition its consent thereto to such owner of the Excluded Leasehold agreeing to thereafter being subject to the Exclusive Use. In the event any such third party contests Landlord’s right to condition its consent to such Excluded Leasehold thereafter being subject to the Exclusive Use, Landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy the provisions of this paragraph. In the event Landlord fails to exercise commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Excluded Leasehold to be subject to the Exclusive Use, Tenant shall be entitled to a reduction in minimum rent in accordance with the provisions of the immediately following paragraph.

Landlord acknowledges that in the event of a breach or an attempted or prospective breach of this Section 19(b), Tenant’s remedies at law would be inadequate. Therefore, in any such event, if such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord, Tenant shall be entitled, at its option and without limitation of any other remedy permitted by law or equity or by this Lease, (i) to elect to pay in lieu of Base Rent and percentage rent due under this Lease two percent (2%) of Tenant’s gross sales calculated according to Tenant’s standard procedures in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, (ii) to cancel this Lease on thirty (30) days written notice to Landlord, and/or (iii) to full and adequate relief by temporary or permanent injunction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the remedy of lease cancellation shall not be applicable if the violation of this Section 19(b) is due to the breach of another tenant’s lease and Landlord is, in Tenant’s good faith judgment, diligently pursuing appropriate legal proceedings to halt the violation and such violation is so halted within sixty (60) days of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice.

(c) Tenant shall at all times conduct its operations on the Premises in a lawful manner and shall, at Tenant’s expense, comply with all laws, rules, orders, ordinances, directions, regulations, and requirements of all governmental authorities, now in force or which may hereafter be in force, which shall impose any duty upon Landlord or Tenant with respect to the business of Tenant and the use, occupancy or alteration of the Premises. Tenant shall comply with all requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act, and shall be solely responsible for all alterations within the Premises in connection therewith. Tenant covenants and agrees that the Premises shall not be abandoned or left vacant and that only minor portions of the Premises shall be used for office or storage space in connection with Tenant’s business conducted in the Premises.

Without being in default of this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to cease operating (go dark) at any time and for whatever reason after the first (1^st) lease year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant’s right to vacate (go dark), shall not release or excuse the Tenant from any obligations or liabilities, including the payment of minimum rent and additional rent and other charges, under this Lease without the express written consent of Landlord. In the event Tenant fails to (i) open and operate within ninety (90) days after delivery of the Premises or (ii) operate for one hundred twenty (120) or more consecutive days, Landlord shall have the right, effective upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Tenant, to terminate the Lease as Landlord’s sole remedy, provided that if Tenant recommences operating fully stocked in substantially all of the premises within such thirty (30) days, Landlord’s termination shall be null and void. In the event Tenant fails to open and operate as provided above or shall cease operating as provided above, Landlord’s sole remedy on account thereof shall be limited to the right to elect to recapture the premises and terminate the Lease, whereupon there shall be no further liability of the parties hereunder.

2. Tenant fails to perform or observe any term, condition, covenant or obligation required to be performed or observed by it under this Lease for a period of twenty (20) days after notice thereof from Landlord; provided, however, that if the term, condition, covenant or obligation to be performed by Tenant is of such nature that the same cannot reasonably be cured within twenty (20) days and if Tenant commences such performance or cure within said twenty (20) day period and thereafter diligently undertakes to complete the same, then such failure shall not be a default hereunder if it is cured within a reasonable time following Landlord’s notice, but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after Landlord’s notice.

3. A trustee or receiver is appointed to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s assets in, on or about the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease (and Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease does not regain possession within sixty (60) days after such appointment); Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or substantially all of Tenant’s assets in, on or about the Premises or Tenant’s interest in this Lease are attached or levied upon under execution (and Tenant does not discharge the same within sixty (60) days thereafter).

(b) Landlord’s Remedies: Upon the occurrence of any event of default, Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies, any one or more of which may be exercised without further notice to or demand upon Tenant:

1. Landlord may re-enter the Premises and cure any default of Tenant, in which event Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any reasonable out-of-pocket cost and expenses which Landlord may incur to cure such default; and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage which Tenant may sustain by reason of Landlord’s action.

2. Landlord may terminate this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession under this Lease as of the date of such default, without terminating Tenant’s obligation to pay rent due hereunder, in which event (A): neither Tenant nor any person claiming under or through Tenant shall thereafter be entitled to possession of the Premises, and Tenant shall immediately thereafter surrender the Premises to Landlord; (B) Landlord may re-enter the Premises and dispose Tenant or any other occupants of the Premises by force, summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and may remove their effects, without prejudice to any other remedy which Landlord may have for possession or arrearages in rent; and (C) notwithstanding a termination of this Lease, Landlord shall use good faith efforts to re-let all or any part of the Premises for at least the balance of the term of this Lease for commercially reasonable rent, whereupon Tenant shall be obligated to pay to Landlord as liquidated damages the difference between the rent provided for herein and that provided for in any lease covering a subsequent re-letting of the Premises, such deficiency to be computed and paid monthly at the times that Rent is payable hereunder, together with all of Landlord’s reasonable costs and expenses for preparing the Premises for re-letting, including all repairs which are Tenant’s obligations hereunder, reasonable broker’s and attorney’s fees, and all loss or damage which Landlord may sustain by reason of such termination, re-entry and re-letting, it being expressly understood and agreed that the liabilities and remedies specified herein shall survive the termination of this Lease. Notwithstanding a termination of this Lease by Landlord, Tenant shall remain liable for payment of all rentals and other charges and costs imposed on Tenant herein, in the amounts, at the times and upon the conditions as herein provided. Landlord shall credit against such liability of the Tenant all amounts received by Landlord from such re-letting after first reimbursing itself for all reasonable costs incurred in curing Tenant’s defaults and re-entering, preparing and refinishing the Premises for re-letting, and re-letting the Premises.

3. Upon termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 33(b)2, Landlord may recover possession of the Premises under and by virtue of the provisions of the laws of the State of Virginia, or by such other proceedings, including reentry and possession, as may be applicable.

4. If the Tenant shall not remove all of Tenant’s property from said Premises as provided in this Lease, Landlord, at its option, may remove any or all of said property in any manner that Landlord shall choose and store same without liability for loss thereof, and Tenant will pay the Landlord, on demand, any and all reasonable expenses incurred in such removal and storage of said property for any length of time during which the same shall be in possession of Landlord or in storage, or Landlord may, upon thirty (30) days prior notice to Tenant, sell any or all of said property in such manner and for such price as the Landlord may reasonably deem best and apply the proceeds of such sale upon any amounts due under this Lease from the Tenant to the Landlord, including the reasonable expenses of removal and sale.

5. Any damage or loss of rent sustained by Landlord may be recovered by Landlord, at Landlord’s option, at the time of the reletting, or in separate actions, from time to time, as said damage shall have been made more easily ascertainable by successive relettings, or at Landlord’s option in a single proceeding deferred until the expiration of the term of this Lease (in which event Tenant hereby agrees that the cause of action shall not be deemed to have accrued until the date of

expiration of said term) or in a single proceeding prior to either the time of reletting or the expiration of the term of this Lease.

6. In the event of a breach by Tenant of any of the covenants or provisions hereof, Landlord shall have the right of injunction and the right to invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity as if reentry, summary proceedings, and other remedies were not provided for herein. Mention in this Lease of any particular remedy shall not preclude Landlord from any other remedy, in law or in equity. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Premises by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants and conditions of this Lease or other use.

7. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws, in the event of eviction or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under any provision of this Lease. No receipt of monies by Landlord from or for the account of Tenant or from anyone in possession or occupancy of the Premises after the termination of this Lease or after the giving of any notice shall reinstate, continue or extend the term of this Lease or affect any notice given to the Tenant prior to the receipt of such money, it being agreed that after the service of notice or the commencement of a suit, or after final judgment for possession of said Premises, the Landlord may receive and collect any rent or other amounts due Landlord and such payment shall not waive or affect said notice, said suit or said judgment.

(c) Additional Remedies and Waivers: The rights and remedies of Landlord set forth herein shall be in addition to any other right and remedy now or hereinafter provided by law and/or equity and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative and shall not be deemed inconsistent with each other, and any two or more or all of said rights and remedies may be exercised at the same time or at different times and from time to time without waiver thereof of any right or remedy provided or reserved to Landlord. No action or inaction by Landlord shall constitute a waiver of a default and no waiver of default shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the Landlord.

(d) Default by Landlord. Any failure by Landlord to observe or perform any provision, covenant or condition of this Lease to be observed or performed by Landlord, if such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Tenant to Landlord, shall constitute a default by Landlord under this Lease, provided, however, that if the nature of such default is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within a thirty (30) day period, Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if it shall commence such cure within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter rectify and cure such default with due diligence.

(e) Interest on Past Due Obligations: All monetary amounts required to be paid by Tenant or Landlord hereunder which are not paid on or before the due date thereof shall, from and after such due date, bear interest at the Interest Rate, and shall be due and payable by such party without notice or demand.

All policies of insurance required to be maintained by the parties hereunder shall contain waiver of subrogation provisions so long as the same are available.

SECTION 35. LIABILITY OF LANDLORD; EXCULPATION

(a) Except with respect to any damages resulting from the gross negligence of Landlord, its agents, or employees, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, its agents, employees, or customers for any damages, losses, compensation, accidents, or claims whatsoever. The foregoing notwithstanding, it is expressly understood and agreed that nothing in this Lease contained shall be construed as creating any liability whatsoever against Landlord personally, and in particular without limiting the generality of the foregoing, there shall be no personal liability to pay any indebtedness accruing hereunder or to perform any covenant, either express or implied, herein contained, or to keep, preserve or sequester any property of Landlord and that all personal liability of Landlord to the extent permitted by law, of every sort, if any, is hereby expressly waived by Tenant, and by every person now or hereafter claiming any right or security hereunder; and that so far as the parties hereto are concerned, the owner of any indebtedness or liability accruing hereunder shall look solely to the Premises and the Center for the payment thereof.

(b) If the Tenant obtains a money judgment against Landlord, any of its officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members or their successors or assigns under any provisions of or with respect to this Lease or on account of any matter, condition or circumstance arising out of the relationship of the parties under this Lease, Tenant’s occupancy of the building or Landlord’s ownership of the Center, Tenant shall be entitled to have execution upon any such final, unappealable judgment only upon Landlord’s fee simple or leasehold estate in the Center (whichever is applicable) and not out of any other assets of Landlord, or any of its officers, directors, shareholders, members or partners, or their successor or assigns; and Landlord shall be entitled to have any such judgment so qualified as to constitute a lien only on said fee simple or leasehold estate.

Notwithstanding the above, Tenant shall have the right to offset any final, unappealable judgment against twenty five percent (25%) of all minimum rent and all percentage rental (but no other additional rent components) if not paid to Tenant by Landlord within thirty (30) days thereafter.

(c) It is expressly agreed that nothing in this Lease shall be construed as creating any personal liability of any kind against the assets of any of the officers, directors, members, partners or shareholders of Tenant, or their successors and assigns.

SECTION 36. RIGHTS CUMULATIVE

Notwithstanding any of the terms and provisions herein contained to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant shall each have the duty and obligation to mitigate, in every reasonable manner, any and all damages that may or shall be caused or suffered by virtue of defaults under or violation of any of the terms and provisions of this Lease agreement committed by the other.

SECTION 38. SIGNS

(a) Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, construct, erect and maintain at the location shown on the Site Plan a pylon sign upon which Tenant’s advertising panel shall be installed.

Thereafter, throughout the term of this Lease, Tenant shall have continuous representation on (a) such pylon

sign and any replacement pylon sign consistent with Exhibit “F” and (b) any new pylon signs erected at the Center, and Tenant shall have no worse representation on any such new pylon sign(s) than any other tenant of the Center leasing the same or less square feet of leasable space as Tenant.

(b) Tenant shall have the right to install its standard signs and awnings on the exterior of the Leased Premises provided that the same are in compliance with local code. Landlord agrees to provide an adequate building facia for Tenant’s signs. Tenant shall also have the right to place signs or banners in the windows of the Premises provided the same have been professionally prepared.

(c) Tenant shall have the right to alter its exterior and pylon signs with Landlord’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, Tenant shall have no obligation to obtain Landlord’s consent to any change in Tenant’s signage if such signage is consistent with Tenant’s then prototypical signage.

SECTION 39. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This Lease shall constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto; all prior agreements between the parties, whether written or oral, are merged herein and shall be of no force and effect. This Lease cannot be changed, modified, or discharged orally but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, modification or discharge is sought.

SECTION 40. TENANT’S PROPERTY

All equipment, inventory, trade fixtures and other property owned by the Tenant and located in the Premises shall remain the personal property of the Tenant and shall be exempt from the claims of the Landlord or any mortgagee or lienholder of the Landlord without regard to the means by which they are installed or attached specifically not including, however, the Tenant Improvements (defined in Section 49(a) below) which throughout the term and upon the expiration of this Lease shall be and remain the property of Landlord. The Landlord expressly waives any statutory or common law landlord’s lien and any and all rights granted under any present or future laws to levy or distrain for rent (whether in arrears or in advance) against the aforesaid property of the Tenant on the Premises and further agrees to execute any reasonable instruments evidencing such waiver, at any time or times hereafter upon the Tenant’s request including the “Landlord’s Waiver” described in Section 56(c) hereof. The Tenant shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, to remove such trade fixtures or equipment. If such removal damages any part of the Premises, the Tenant shall repair such damages.

Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any and all liabilities, penalties, demands, actions, costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney fees), remediation and response costs incurred or suffered by Landlord directly or indirectly arising due to the breach of Tenant’s obligations set forth in this Section. Such indemnification shall survive expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. At the expiration or sooner termination hereof, Tenant shall return the Premises to Landlord in

substantially the same condition as existed on the date of commencement hereof free of any hazardous substances in, on or from the Premises.

(b) Landlord hereby represents and warrants that, except as set forth in that certain Phase I Environmental Site Assessment dated February 2006, prepared by Xxxxx X.

(c) If any such hazardous substances are discovered at the Center (unless introduced by the Tenant, its agents or employees) or if any asbestos or asbestos containing material is discovered in the Premises (unless introduced by the Tenant, its agents or employees), and removal, encapsulation or other remediation is required by applicable laws, the Landlord immediately and with all due diligence and at no expense to the Tenant shall take all measures necessary to comply with all applicable laws and to remove such hazardous substances or asbestos from the Center and/or encapsulate or remediate such hazardous substances or asbestos, which removal and/or encapsulation or remediation shall be in compliance with all environmental laws and regulations, and the Landlord shall repair and restore the Center at its expense. From the date such encapsulation, remediation and restoration is complete, the rent due hereunder shall be reduced by the same percentage as the percentage of the Premises which, in the Tenant’s reasonable judgment, cannot be safely, economically or practically used for the operation of the Tenant’s business. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if in the Tenant’s reasonable judgment, such removal, encapsulation, remediation and restoration cannot be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days or the same is not actually completed by Landlord within such one hundred eighty (180) day period following the date such hazardous substances or asbestos are discovered and such condition materially adversely affects Tenant’s ability to conduct normal business operations in the premises, then the Tenant may terminate this Lease by written notice to the Landlord within thirty (30) days after such 180 day period, which notice shall be effective on Landlord’s receipt thereof.

Any such Leasehold Mortgage shall be a lien only upon Tenant’s leasehold estate hereunder and Tenant’s interests in this Lease and shall not encumber Landlord’s fee simple title to the Center or the Leased Premises. Pursuant to any such Leasehold Mortgage, the Leasehold Mortgagee or another person or entity (a “Successor-Tenant”) may acquire title to Tenant’s interest in the leasehold estate in the Leased Premises in any lawful way, including but not limited to, through foreclosure, assignment in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise. In such event, the Successor-Tenant shall succeed to the rights of Tenant under this Lease, including the right to possession of the Leased Premises, in which event Landlord shall recognize the Successor-Tenant as the tenant under this Lease, the same as if such Successor-Tenant were the original tenant hereunder.

(b) Tenant shall notify Landlord (and any Fee Mortgagee, as hereinafter defined in Section 56(d) below), in the manner hereinafter provided for the giving of notice, of the execution of such Leasehold Mortgage and the name and place for service of notice upon Leasehold Mortgagee.

(c) Landlord does hereby waive any statutory or other lien of the Landlord in Tenant’s present and after-acquired assets, including among other things, Tenant’s inventory and equipment. To evidence such waiver for the benefit of a lender of Tenant, Landlord agrees execute and deliver to Tenant and any such lender a commercially reasonable “Landlord’s Waiver” whereby Landlord agrees to waive any lien on Tenant’s assets including its inventory and equipment.

(d) In the event that, at any time prior to the execution of this Lease and the recordation of a memorandum of lease in accordance with Section 47 hereof, Landlord has mortgaged or otherwise encumbered the fee simple title to the Premises, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a commercially reasonable SNDA (as defined in Section 11) containing terms substantially similar to the terms of the document so entitled attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit “I”, duly executed by the holder of any such mortgage or encumbrance (the “Fee Mortgagee”). Landlord agrees that Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall be contingent upon

delivery by Landlord to Tenant of an SNDA executed by the Fee Mortgagee on or before the Commencement Date, as more fully set forth in Section 11.
