(b) (1) Tenant shall pay to the Landlord, as additional rent, an

estate taxes and other ad valorem taxes.
(3) If the tax year for real estate taxes shall be changed by
the applicable governmental authority resulting in the payment by the Landlord
in one calendar year of Taxes which relate to more than one calendar year, then
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, for purposes
of determining the Rent Adjustment for such calendar year, such amount of taxes
shall be adjusted to an amount which is equivalent to a one-year payment of
Taxes.
(c) Tenant shall pay to the Landlord as additional rent Tenant's
Proportion of the amount of Expenses (as herein defined) attributable to any
calendar year of the Lease. For the purposes of this Section 2(c), the term

Landlord under warranty; (7) any penalty or fine incurred by Landlord due to
Landlord's violation of any federal, state, or local law or regulation and any
interest or penalties due for late payment by Landlord; (8) cost of correcting
any latent defects or original design defects in the Building construction
materials or equipment, but only to the extent such costs relate to the
structural systems of the Building; (9) expenses for any item or service not
made available by Landlord to all tenants of the Building which Tenant pays
directly to a third party or, if provided by Landlord, Tenant separately
reimburses Landlord and expenses incurred by Landlord due to special request of
tenants or third parties to the extent the same are reimbursable or reimbursed
from any other tenants or third parties; (10) fees paid to affiliates of

to retail stores, hotels and any specialty service owned and operated by

cost of any capital improvements which are necessary to keep the Project in
compliance with all governmental rules, regulations, ordinances and statutes. If
the building is not fully rented during all or a portion of any year subsequent
to the Base Year, then Landlord may elect to make an appropriate adjustment of
the Expenses for such year employing sound accounting and management principles,
to determine the amount of Expenses that would have been paid or incurred by the
Landlord had the Building been fully occupied; and the amount so determined
shall be the amount of Expenses attributable to such year. If any Project
expense, though paid in one year, relates to more than one calendar year, at the
option of Landlord such expenses may be proportionately allocated among such
related calendar years.

not be subject to any liability for the failure to give possession on said date.
Under such circumstances the rent reserved and covenanted to be paid herein for
the Expansion Space shall not commence until the Expansion Space is available
for occupancy by Tenant, and no such failure to give possession of the Expansion

Tenant, the Lease shall be amended so that the term shall be extended by the
period of time possession is delayed. If the Expansion Space is ready for
occupancy prior to the date of the Expansion Date Commencement Date and Tenant

occupancy prior to the Expansion Space Commencement Date at the rent stated in
Exhibit "D." The Expansion Space shall be deemed ready for Tenant's occupancy
and substantially complete on the Expansion Space Commencement Date if only
punchlist items of construction, decoration or mechanical adjustments remain to
be completed in the Expansion Space or any part thereof, or if the delay in the
availability of the Expansion Space for occupancy shall be due to special work,
changes, alterations or additions required or made by Tenant in the layout or
finish of the Expansion Space or any part thereof or shall be caused in whole or
in part by Tenant through the delay of Tenant in submitting plans, supplying
information, approving plans, specifications or estimates, giving authorizations
or otherwise or shall be caused in whole or in part by delay and/or default on
the part of Tenant and/or its subtenant or subtenants. In the event of any
dispute as to whether the Expansion Space is ready for Tenant's occupancy or as

the result of the aforementioned acts or omissions of Tenant, the decision of
Landlord's architect shall be final and binding on the parties.
In the event the Landlord shall be unable to obtain possession of the
Expansion Space from the current tenant, Lumbermans Mutual Casualty Company
("Lumbermans") and commence the Tenant Improvements on or prior to August 1,

10
(whether legal or illegal), civil disorder, failure of power, restrictive
governmental laws and regulations, riots, insurrections, war, shortages,
accidents, casualties, Acts of God, acts, omissions or delays of or caused by
Tenant or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of the Landlord. In such

Tenant shall, at the Tenant's own expense, keep the demised premises in good
order, condition and repair and shall pay for the repair of any damages,
ordinary wear and tear excepted, caused by Tenant, its agents, employees or
invitees during the term. The Tenant shall pay the Landlord for overtime and for
any other expense incurred in the event repairs, alterations, decorating or
other work in the demised premises are not made during ordinary business hours
at the Tenant's request.
8. ALTERATIONS. The Tenant shall not do any painting or decorating, or
erect any partitions, make any non-structural alterations in or additions to the
demised premises or do any nailing, boring or screwing into the ceilings, walls
or floors, without the Landlord's prior written consent in each and every
instance, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, unless the cost of
such work is less than $10,000.00, in which case consent shall not be required.
Tenants shall not perform any structural repairs or alterations regardless of
the cost. Unless otherwise agreed by Landlord and Tenant in writing, all such
work shall be performed either by or under the direction of Landlord, but at the
cost of Tenant. The Landlord's decision to refuse such consent shall be
conclusive. If the Landlord's consent to such alterations or additions is
required, the Tenant shall furnish the Landlord for approval:
(a) plans and specifications;
(b) names and addresses of contractors;
(c) copies of contracts;
(d) necessary permits;
(e) indemnification in form and amount satisfactory to Landlord and
certificates of insurance from all contractors performing labor or furnishing
materials, insuring against any and
16
all claims, costs, damages, liabilities and expenses which may arise in
connection with the alterations or additions.
Landlord may withhold approval of any alterations or additions if the plans
or specifications therefor are not acceptable to the Landlord or Landlord's
architect or engineer (if any). In connection with any request for approval of
any alterations or additions by Tenant, Landlord may retain the services of an
outside architect and/or engineer and the reasonable fees of such architect
and/or engineer to Landlord shall be reimbursed to Landlord by Tenant.
Landlord's approval of any plans or specifications shall not be construed to be
an agreement or representation on Landlord's part as to the adequacy or
suitability of the Tenant's alterations or additions.
In the event Landlord permits the alterations or additions to be completed
by Tenant's contractor, Landlord reserves the right to require that Tenant shall
terminate its contract with any such contractor in the event said contractor
shall be engaged in a labor dispute which disrupts said contractor's work.
Landlord shall also have the right to order any contractor of Tenant who
violates any of Landlord's requirements or standards of work to cease work and
to remove himself, his equipment and his employees from the Building. Tenant
agrees that its contractors shall not conduct their work in such a manner so as
to interfere with or cause any interruption of either (i) Landlord's
construction, (ii) another tenant's occupancy or construction, or (iii) other
phases of Landlord's operation of the Building.
Whether the Tenant furnishes the Landlord the foregoing or not, the Tenant
hereby agrees to hold the Landlord its beneficiaries, Owner and Owner's partners
and their respective agents and employees harmless from any and all liabilities
of every kind and description which may arise out of or be connected in any way
with said alterations or additions. Any mechanic's lien filed against the
demised premises, or the Building of which the same form a part, for work
claimed to have been furnished to the Tenant shall be discharged of record by
the Tenant within ten (10) days thereafter, at the Tenant's expense. Upon
completing any alterations or additions whether Landlord's approval is required
or not, the Tenant shall furnish the Landlord with contractors' affidavits and
full and final waivers of lien and receipted bills covering all labor and
materials expended and used and a final set
17
of as-built drawings, plans and specifications. All alterations and additions
shall comply with all insurance requirements and with all ordinances,
regulations, laws and other requirements of any pertinent governmental
authority. All alterations and additions shall be constructed in a good and
workmanlike manner and good grades of materials shall be used.
All additions, decorations, fixtures, hardware, non-trade fixtures and all
improvements, temporary or permanent, in or upon the demised premises, whether
placed there by the Tenant or by the Landlord, shall, unless the Landlord
identifies the need for their removal at the time of installation, become the
Landlord's property and shall remain upon the demised premises at the
termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise without compensation or
allowance of credit to the Tenant. If, upon the Landlord's request, the Tenant
does not remove said additions, decorations, fixtures, hardware, non-trade
fixtures and improvements earlier identified by Landlord, the Landlord may
remove the same and the Tenant shall pay the cost of such removal to the
Landlord upon demand. Any damage caused by the removal of additions,
decorations, fixtures, hardware, non-trade fixtures and improvements may be
repaired by the Landlord at Tenant's expense.
9. ACCESS TO PREMISES. The Tenant shall permit the Landlord to erect,
use and maintain pipes, ducts, wiring and conduits in and through the Premises.
The Landlord or Landlord's agents shall have the right upon twenty-four (24)
hours prior notice (except for janitorial services or in case of an emergency in
which case Landlord shall notify Tenant as promptly as possible) to enter upon
the premises, to inspect the same, to perform janitorial and cleaning services
and to make such repairs, alterations, improvements or additions to the premises
or the Building as the Landlord may deem necessary or desirable, and the
Landlord shall be allowed to take all material into and upon said demised
premises that may be required therefor without the same constituting an eviction
of the Tenant in whole or in part and the rent reserved shall in no wise xxxxx
(except as provided in Section 10) while said repairs, alterations,
improvements, or additions are being made, by reason of loss or interruption of
business of the Tenant, or otherwise. If the Tenant shall not be personally
present to open and permit an entry into said demised premises, at any time,
when for any reason an entry therein shall be necessary or permissible, the
Landlord or Landlord's agents may enter the same
18
by a master key, or use reasonable force commensurate with the circumstances to
enter the Premises, without rendering the Landlord or such agents liable
therefor (if during such entry Landlord or Landlord's agents shall accord
reasonable care to Tenant's property), and without in any manner affecting the
obligations and covenants of this Lease. Nothing herein contained, however,
shall be deemed or construed to impose upon the Landlord any obligations,
responsibility or liability whatsoever, for the care, supervision or repair of
the Building or any part thereof, in the exercise of the rights herein provided.
The Landlord shall also have the right at any time without the same constituting
an actual or constructive eviction and without incurring any liability to the
Tenant therefor, to change the arrangement and/or location of entrances or
passages, doors and doorways, and corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or
public parts of the Building, and to close entrances, doors, corridors,
elevators or other facilities. The Landlord shall not be liable to the Tenant
for any expense, injury, loss or damage resulting from work done in or upon, or
the use of, any adjacent or nearby building, land, street or alley.
Tenant shall permit Landlord and its agents, upon request, to enter and/or
pass through the premises or any part thereof, at reasonable times during normal
business hours to show the premises to holders of encumbrances on the interest
of Landlord, or prospective purchasers, mortgagees, lessors or tenants of the
Building or any portion thereof. Landlord shall also have the right to enter
and/or pass through the premises, or any part thereof, at such times as such
entry shall be required by circumstances of emergency affecting the premises or
any other portion of the Building.
10. UNTENANTABILITY. If a substantial portion of the demised premises or
the Building is made untenantable by fire or other casualty, Landlord may elect:
(a) to terminate this Lease as of the date of the fire or casualty by
notice to the Tenant within ninety (90) days after that date, or
(b) proceed with all due diligence to repair, restore or rehabilitate
the Building or the demised Premises, other than leasehold improvements paid for
by Tenant, at Landlord's expense, in which event this Lease shall not terminate.
In the event
19
Landlord proceeds to repair or restore the Building and Premises but is unable
to complete the repairs or restoration to the Building and Premises within 180
days after such damage has occurred, then Tenant shall have the right to
terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord which notice must be provided
to Landlord no later than 10 days after the expiration of the 180 day period.
Landlord shall not be deemed in default with respect to repair or restoration of
the Building or the Premises, if the failure to timely perform is due in whole
or in part to any strike, labor trouble (whether legal or illegal), civil
disorder, failure of power, restrictive governmental laws and regulations,
riots, insurrections, war, shortages, accidents, casualties, Acts of God, acts,
omissions or delays of or caused by Tenant or any other cause beyond the
reasonable control of the Landlord. In such event Tenants right to terminate the
Lease shall be extended, by the number of days repair or restoration has been
delayed by such act or events.
In the event the Lease is not terminated pursuant to these provisions, Base
Rent shall xxxxx on a per diem basis during the period of untenantability. In
the event of the termination of this Lease pursuant to this section, Base Rent
shall be apportioned on a per diem basis and paid to the date of the fire or
other casualty. In the event that the Building or the demised premises is
partially damaged by fire or other casualty but an insubstantial portion of the
Building or the demised premises is made untenantable, then Landlord shall,
except during the last year of the term hereof, proceed with all due diligence
to repair and restore the demised premises or the Building and the Base Rent
shall xxxxx in proportion to the non-usability of the demised premises during
the period of untenantability. If an insubstantial portion of the demised
premises is made untenantable as aforesaid during the last year of the term
hereof, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease as of the date of
the fire or other casualty by giving written notice thereof to Tenant within
thirty (30) days after the date of fire or other casualty, in which event the
Base' Rent shall be apportioned on a per diem basis and paid to the date of such
fire or other casualty. Substantial as referred to in this Section 10 shall be
more than thirty (30%) percent. No damage, compensation or claim shall be
payable by Landlord for inconvenience, loss of business or annoyance arising
from any repair or restoration of any portion of the demised premises or other
portion of the Building except as herein set forth.
20
11. INSURANCE. Tenant shall carry:
(a) Comprehensive public liability insurance during the entire term
hereof covering both Tenant and Landlord as insureds to afford protection to the
limits of not less than $2,000,000 for combined single limit bodily injury and
property damage liability.
(b) Insurance against fire, sprinkler leakage, vandalism, and the
extended coverage perils for the full replacement value of all additions,
improvements and alterations to the premises, and of all office furniture, trade
fixtures, office equipment, merchandise and all other items of Tenant's property
on the premises.
All insurance required to be maintained by Tenant shall be on terms and
with companies satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant shall, prior to the commencement
of the term, and during the term, 30 days prior to the expiration of the
policies of insurance, furnish to Landlord certificates evidencing such
coverage, which certificates shall state that such insurance coverage may not be
changed or cancelled without at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to
Landlord or Tenant.
12. SUBROGATION. The parties hereto agree to have any and all fire,
extended coverage or any and all material damage insurance which may be carried
endorsed with the following subrogation clause: "This insurance shall not be
invalidated should the insured waive prior to a loss any or all right of
recovery against any party for loss occurring to the property described herein";
and each party hereto hereby waives all claims for recovery from the other party
for any loss or damage to any of its property insured under valid and
collectible insurance policies to the extent of any recovery collectible under
such insurance.
13. EMINENT DOMAIN. If a substantial part of the Building, or a
substantial part of the demised premises, shall be lawfully taken or condemned
for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or conveyed under threat of such
condemnation, the term of this Lease shall end upon, and not before, the date of
the taking of possession by the condemning authority, and without apportionment
of the award. Tenant hereby assigns to the Landlord Tenant's
21
interest in such award, if any. Current rent shall be apportioned as of the date
of such termination.
If any part of the Building shall be so taken or condemned, or if the grade
of any street or alley adjacent to the Building is changed by any competent
authority and such taking or change of grade makes it necessary or desirable to
demolish, substantially remodel, or restore the Building, the Landlord shall
have the right to cancel this Lease upon not less than thirty (30) days' notice
prior to the date of cancellation designated in the notice. No money or other
consideration shall be payable by the Landlord to the Tenant for the right of
cancellation, and the Tenant shall have no right to share in the condemnation
award or in any judgment for damages caused by the change of grade.
If any insubstantial portion of the premises shall be lawfully taken or
condemned or conveyed under threat of condemnation so that the premises can be
used by Tenant for the purposes set forth in Section 6, and this Lease is not
terminated by Landlord, Landlord shall repair the premises, and the Lease shall
be amended to reduce the Tenant's Proportion and Base Rent in the proportion of
the amount taken. No temporary taking of the premises and/or Tenant's rights
therein shall terminate this Lease. Any award made by reason of any such
temporary taking shall belong entirely to Landlord and Tenant shall not be
entitled to share therein.
14. ASSIGNMENT-SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not, without Landlord's prior
written consent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld:
(a) Assign, hypothecate, mortgage, encumber, or convey this Lease or
any interest under it;
(b) Allow any transfer thereof or any lien upon Tenant's interest by
operation of law;
(c) Sublet the demised premises in whole or in part; or
(d) Permit the use or occupancy of the premises by any party other

writing of its desire to do so not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the
proposed effective date of such assignment or subletting, such notice to include
(a) the name of the proposed subtenant or assignee; (b) the nature of the
proposed subtenant or assignee's business to be carried on in the premises; (c)
the terms and provisions of the proposed sublease or assignment; (d) such
financial information as Landlord may reasonably request concerning the proposed
subtenant or assignee; and (e) an executed copy of the instrument of assignment
or sublease. At any time within ten (10) working days after Landlord's receipt
of the notice and the above required information in a form and content
satisfactory to Landlord, Landlord shall notify the Tenant that:
(i) it consents to the sublease or assignment; or
(ii) it refuses to consent to the sublease or assignment;
or
(iii) with respect to the proposed assignment or sublease of
the entire premises that it cancels the Lease effective as of the beginning of
the sublease term or assignment; or
(iv) with respect to the proposed sublease of part of the
premises that, effective as of the beginning of the sublease term, it amends the
Lease to reduce the premises by the portion of the premises proposed to be
sublet and further appropriately amends the Lease because of the reduction of
the premises.
(2) The use for which the premises may he sublet shall be only
for lawful office use in keeping with the general character of the Building.
(3) If Tenant shall sublet or assign the demised premises at a
rental in excess of the Base Rent and any additional
23
rent herein provided, any profit generated after reduction of Tenant's expenses
related to such sublet, amortized over the remaining term of the Lease, shall be
divided equally between Landlord and Tenant. Tenant expenses shall be limited to
reasonable legal fees, commissions, Tenants improvements paid for by Tenant and
moving allowance paid by Tenant to the Sublessee.
Any assignment or subletting shall not release Tenant of liability under
this Lease or permit any subsequent prohibited act, unless specifically provided
in such consent. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, on demand, all reasonable
costs incurred by Landlord in connection with any request by Tenant of Landlord
in connection with any consent to any assignment or subletting by Tenant not to
exceed $1,000.00. No assignment shall be binding on Landlord unless such
assignee or Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a counterpart of such assignment
and an instrument which contains a covenant of assumption by the assignee
satisfactory in substance and form to Landlord.
(4) Tenant shall have the right to assign or transfer any interest in
this Lease without Landlord's consent to a "Related Transferee," which term
shall mean any of the following: Tenant's parent or any subsidiary or affiliate
of Tenant, or a successor to Tenant by way of merger, consolidation, corporate
reorganization, or the purchase of all or substantially all of Tenant's assets.
Any transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition and/or power to vote the
outstanding shares of corporate stock of Tenant shall not be deemed an
assignment.
15. WAIVER OF CLAIMS AND INDEMNITY. To the extent permitted by law, the
Tenant releases the Landlord, its beneficiaries, partners and their respective
agents and servants from, and waives all claims for, damage to person or
property sustained by the Tenant or any occupant of the Building or premises
resulting from the Building or premises or any part of either or any equipment
or appurtenance becoming out of repair, or resulting from any accident in or
about the Building, or resulting directly or indirectly from any act or neglect
of any tenant or occupant of the Building or any other person, including
Landlord's agents and servants. This Section 15 shall apply especially, but not
exclusively, to the flooding of basements or other subsurface areas, and to
damage caused by refrigerators, sprinkling devices, air-conditioning apparatus,
water, snow, frost, steam, excessive heat or cold,
24
falling plaster, broken glass, sewage, gas, odors or noise, or the bursting or
leaking of pipes or plumbing fixtures, and shall apply equally whether any such
damage results from the act or neglect of the Landlord or of other tenants,
occupants or servants in the Building or of any other person, and whether such
damage be caused or result from any thing or circumstances above mentioned or
referred to, or any other thing or circumstances whether of a like nature or of
a wholly different nature. If any such damage, whether to the demised premises
or to the Building or any part thereof, or whether to the Landlord or to other
tenants in the Building, results from any act or neglect of the Tenant, its
employees, agents, invitees, and customers, the Tenant shall be liable therefor
and the Landlord may, at the Landlord's option, repair such damage and the
Tenant shall, upon demand by Landlord, reimburse the Landlord forthwith for the
total cost of such repairs. The Tenant shall not be liable for any damage caused
by its act or neglect if the Landlord or a tenant has recovered the full amount
of the damage from insurance and the insurance company has waived its right of
subrogation against the Tenant. All property belonging to the Tenant or any
occupant of the premises that is in the Building or the premises shall be there
at the risk of the Tenant or other person only, and the Landlord shall not be
liable for damages thereto or theft or misappropriation thereof.
Tenant agrees to indemnify and save the Landlord, its beneficiaries,
partners and their respective agents and employees harmless against any and all
claims, demands, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees for
the defense thereof, arising from Tenant's occupation of the demised premises.
In case of any action or proceeding brought against Landlord, its beneficiaries,
Owner and Owner's partners or their respective agents or employees by reason of
any such claim, upon notice from Landlord, Tenant covenants to defend such
action or proceeding by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.
16. MORTGAGE-GROUND LEASE. Landlord may execute and deliver a mortgage or
trust deed in the nature of a mortgage, both sometimes hereinafter referred to
as "mortgage" against the Building, the Real Property or any interest thereon,
and may sell and lease back the underlying land on which the Building is
situated. If the mortgagee or trustee named in any mortgage or trust deed
hereafter made shall agree that, if it becomes the owner of the Building by
foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, it
25
will recognize the rights and interest of Tenant under the Lease and not disturb
Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises if and so long as Tenant is not in
default under the Lease, then this Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder
shall thereafter be expressly subject and subordinate at all times to any such
Mortgage and/or ground lease, and all amendments, modifications and renewals
thereof and extensions, consolidations or replacements thereof, and to all
advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security thereof. Tenant agrees
to execute and deliver such further instruments in confirmation of the
subordination of this Lease to said Mortgage or ground lease as may be requested
in writing by Landlord from time to time. Tenant hereby appoints Landlord as
attorney-in-fact for Tenant with full power and authority to execute and deliver
in the name of the Tenant any such instrument in the event Tenant fails to do
so.
Should any Mortgage affecting the Building or the Real Property be
foreclosed or if any ground or underlying lease be terminated:
(a) The liability of the mortgagee, trustee or purchaser at such
foreclosure sale or the liability of a subsequent owner designated as Landlord
under this Lease shall exist only so long as such trustee, mortgagee, purchase
or owner is the owner of the Building or Real Property and such liability shall
not continue or survive after further transfer of ownership.
(b) Upon request of the mortgagee or trustee, Tenant will attorn, as
Tenant under this Lease, to the purchaser at any foreclosure sale thereunder, or
if any ground or underlying lease be terminated for any reason, Tenant will
attorn as tenant under this Lease to the ground Lessor under the ground lease
and will execute such instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to evidence
such attornment.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
Mortgagee by notice in writing to Tenant may subordinate its Mortgage to this
Lease.
17. CERTAIN RIGHTS RESERVED TO THE LANDLORD. The Landlord reserves and
may exercise the following rights without affecting Tenant's obligations
hereunder:
26
(a) to change the name or street address of the Building;
(b) to install and maintain a sign or signs on the interior or
exterior of the Building;

(g) to grant to anyone the exclusive right to conduct any particular
business or undertaking in the Building;
(h) to exhibit the demised premises to others and to display "For

(i) to close the Building after regular working hours and on legal
holidays subject, however, to Tenant's right to admittance, under such
reasonable regulations as Landlord may prescribe from time to time, which may
include by way of example but not of limitation, that persons entering or
leaving the Building identify themselves to a watchman by registration or
otherwise and that said persons establish their right to enter or leave the
Building;
(j) to approve the weight, size and location of safes or other heavy
equipment or articles, which articles may be moved in, about, or out of the
Building or premises only at such times and in
27
such manner as Landlord shall direct and in all events, however, at Tenant's
sole risk and responsibility;
(k) to designate and/or approve, prior to installation, all types of
window shades, blinds, drapes, awnings, window ventilators and other similar
equipment, and to control all internal lighting that may be visible from the

(l) to take any and all measures, including inspections, repairs,
alterations, decorations, additions and improvements to the premises or to the
Building, as may be necessary or desirable for the safety, protection or
preservation of the premises or the Building or the Landlord's interests, or as
may be necessary or desirable in the operation of the Building.
The Landlord may enter upon the demised premises and may exercise any or
all of the foregoing rights reserved without being deemed guilty of an eviction
or disturbance of the Tenant's use or possession and without being liable in any
manner to the Tenant and without abatement of rent or affecting any of the
Tenant's obligations hereunder.
18. HOLDING OVER. If the Tenant retains possession of the demised
premises or any part thereof after the termination of the term or any extension
thereof, by lapse of time or otherwise, the Tenant shall pay the Landlord the
monthly rent, (including Rent Adjustment which Landlord may reasonably
estimate) at double the rate payable for the month immediately preceding said
holding over, computed on a per-month basis, for each month or part thereof that
the Tenant thus remains in possession, and in addition thereto, Tenant shall pay
the Landlord all damages, consequential as well as direct, sustained by reason
of the Tenant's retention of possession, provided, however, that Tenant shall
not be responsible for consequential damages incurred during the first thirty
(30) days of any such holdover. Such tenancy shall be subject to every other
term, covenant and agreement contained herein. The provisions of this paragraph
do not exclude the Landlord's rights of re-entry or any other right here-under.
19. LANDLORD'S REMEDIES. All rights and remedies of the Landlord herein
enumerated shall be cumulative, and none shall exclude any other right or remedy
allowed by law.
28
intentionally omitted
(a) If the Tenant defaults in the payment of rent, and the Tenant
does not cure the default within ten (10) days after demand for payment of such
rent or if the Tenant defaults in the prompt and full performance of any other
provisions of this Lease, and the Tenant does not cure the default within thirty
(30) days after written demand by the landlord that the default be cured (unless
the default involves a hazardous condition, which shall be cured forthwith) or
if the leasehold interest of the Tenant be levied upon under execution or be
attached by process of law or if the Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit
of creditors or admits its inability to pay its debts or if a receiver he
appointed for any property of the Tenant, or if Tenant abandons the premises and
is in default of any provision of this Lease, then and in any such event the
Landlord may, if the Landlord so elects but not otherwise, and with or without
notice of such election, and with or without any demand whatsoever, either
forthwith terminate this Lease and the Tenant's right to possession of the
premises or, without terminating this Lease, forthwith terminate the Tenant's
right to possession of the premises.
(b) Upon any termination of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or
otherwise, or upon any termination of the Tenant's right to possession without
termination of the Lease, the Tenant shall surrender possession and vacate the
premises immediately, and deliver possession thereof to the Landlord, and hereby
grants to the Landlord full and free license to enter into and upon the premises
in such event with or without process of law and to repossess the Landlord of
the premises as of the Landlord's former estate and to expel or remove the
Tenant and any' others who may be occupying or be within the premises and to
remove any and all property therefrom, using such force as may be necessary,
without being deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction or forcible
entry or detainer, and without relinquishing the Landlord's rights to rent or
any other right given to the Landlord hereunder or by operation of law.
(c) Upon termination of the Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to
recover as damages a sum of money equal to the present value, on the date of
termination, of the Rent provided herein to be paid by Tenant to Landlord for
the remainder of the Lease term
29
plus all rent accrued and unpaid up to and including the termination date.
(d) In the event Landlord elects to terminate Tenant's right to
possession without terminating the Lease the Landlord shall take reasonable
measures to relet all or any part of the Premises for such rent and upon such
terms as shall be satisfactory to Landlord (including the right to relet the
Premises for a term greater or lesser than that remaining under the Lease Term,
and the right to relet the Premises as part of a larger area, and the right to
change the character or use made of the Premises). For the purpose of such
reletting, Landlord may decorate or make any repairs, changes, alterations or
additions in or to the Premises that may be necessary or convenient. If Landlord
is unable to relet the Premises, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the
present value, at the time of default, of the Rent herein to be paid by Tenant
for the remainder of the Lease Term, plus all rent accrued and unpaid at the
time of default. If the Premises are relet and a sufficient sum shall not be
realized from such reletting after paying all of the expenses of such
decoration, repairs, changes, alterations, additions, the expenses of such
reletting and the collection of the rent accruing therefrom (including but not
by of limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and brokers' commissions), to
satisfy the Rent herein provided to be paid for the remainder of the Lease Term,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand any deficiency. Landlord shall not be
deemed to have failed to use reasonable measures to relet the Premises by reason
of the fact that Landlord has leased or sought to lease other vacant premises in
the building in preference to reletting the Premises, or by reason of the fact
that Landlord has sought to relet the Premises at a rental rate higher than that
payable by Tenant under the Lease (but not in excess of the then current market
rental rate).
(e) Any and all property which may be removed from the premises by
the Landlord pursuant to the authority of the Lease or of law, to which the
Tenant is or may be entitled, may be handled, removed or stored by the Landlord
at the risk, cost and expense of the Tenant, and the Landlord shall in no event
be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. The Tenant
shall pay to the Landlord, upon demand, any and all expenses incurred in such
removal and all storage charges against such property so long as the same shall
be in the Landlord's possession or under the
30
Landlord's control. Any such property of the Tenant not retaken from storage by
the Tenant within thirty (30) days after the end of the term, however
terminated, shall be conclusively presumed to have been conveyed by the Tenant
to the Landlord under this Lease as a xxxx of sale without further payment or
credit by the Landlord to the Tenant.
(f) Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a first lien upon the interest
of Tenant under this Lease to secure the payment of moneys due under this Lease,
which lien may be enforced in equity; and Landlord shall be entitled as a matter
of right to have a receiver appointed to take possession of the demised premises
and relet the same under order of court.
(g) The Tenant shall pay upon demand all the Landlord's costs,
charges and expenses, including the fees of counsel, agents and others retained
by the Landlord, incurred in performing or in enforcing the Tenant's obligations
hereunder or incurred by the Landlord in any litigation, negotiation or
transaction in which the Tenant causes the Landlord, without the Landlord's
fault, to become involved or concerned.
(h) The obligation of Tenant to pay the Rent reserved during the
balance of the Term, or during any extension, or any holdover tenancy created by
acts of the parties shall not be deemed to be waived, released or terminated, by
the service of any five-day notice, other notice to collect, demand for
possession, or notice that the tenancy hereby created will be terminated on the
date therein named, the institution of any action of forcible detainer or
ejectment or any judgment for possession that may be rendered in such action, or
any other act or acts resulting in the termination of the Lease of Tenant's
right to possession of the Premises.
(i) Tenant agrees that Landlord may file suit to recover any sums due
to Landlord under this Lease from time to time and that such suit or recovery of
any amount due Landlord hereunder shall not be any defense to any subsequent

24. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Tenant agrees to deposit with Landlord, upon the
execution of this Lease, the sum of $22,295.59 as security for the full and
faithful performance by Tenant of each and every term, provision, covenant and
condition of this Lease. If Tenant defaults in respect to any of the terms,
provisions, covenants and conditions of this Lease including, but not limited
to, payment of the Base Rent and Rent Adjustments, Landlord may use, apply or
retain the whole or any part of the security so deposited for the payment of any
such rent in default, or for any other sum which the Landlord may expend or be
required to expend by reason of Tenant's default including, without limitation,
any damages or deficiencies in the reletting of the demised premises, whether
such damages or deficiency shall have accrued before or after any re-entry by
Landlord. If any of the security shall be so used, applied or retained by
Landlord at any time or from time to time, Tenant shall promptly, in each such
instance, on written demand therefor by Landlord, pay to Landlord such
additional sum as may be necessary to restore the security to the original
amount set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph. If Tenant shall fully

(b) the removal of Tenant and its property from the demised premises;
(c) the surrender of the demised premises by Tenant to Landlord in
accordance with this Lease; and
(d) the time required for the Rent Adjustment due pursuant to the

interest on the aforesaid security. In the absence of evidence satisfactory to
Landlord of an assignment of the right to receive the security or the remaining
balance thereof, Landlord may return the security to the original Tenant,
regardless of one or more assignments of this Lease. Upon the transfer of
Landlord's interest under this Lease, Landlord's obligation to Tenant with
respect to the security deposit shall terminate upon assumption of such
obligation by the transferee.
25. COVENANT AGAINST LIENS. Tenant has no authority or power to cause or
permit any lien or encumbrance of any kind whatsoever, whether created by act of
Tenant, operation of law or otherwise, to attach to or be placed upon Landlord's
title or interest in the Real Property and any and all liens and encumbrances
created by Tenant shall attach to Tenant's interest only. Tenant covenants and
agrees not to suffer or permit any lien of mechanics or materialmen or others to
be placed against the Land, Building or the premises with respect to work or
services claimed to have been performed for or materials claimed to have been
furnished to Tenant or the premises, and in case of any such lien attaching,
Tenant covenants and agrees immediately to cause it to be released and removed
of record.
26. RENEWAL OPTION.
(a) Tenant shall have one option to renew (the "Renewal Option") the
Lease for one (1) additional five (5) year term to commence June 1, 2002 and
terminate May 31, 2007 (the "Renewal Term") upon notifying Landlord in writing
of the election to renew the Lease, not less than one hundred eighty (180) days
prior to the Expiration Date (the "Option Notice").
(b) Annual Base Rent for the Renewal Term shall be the greater of 95%
of the current market rental rate ("Market Rent") prevailing at the time of the
Option Notice or $309,401.34. Landlord shall advise Tenant in writing regarding
Landlord's proposed Market Rent within ten (10) business days of Landlord's
receipt of the Option Notice.
(c) For purposes of the Lease "Market Rent" shall mean the annual
rate of rent per square foot of rentable area, including concessions, if any,
and building standard tenant improvement
34
allowance for leases with comparable term commencing on or about the same time
such rate is to be determined for comparable space in similar buildings within
the same geographic area for the same term in arm's length transactions between
a landlord and a willing and informed tenant.
(d) If Tenant disagrees with Landlord's determination of "Market
Rent", the parties shall meet and attempt to resolve their disagreement within
fifteen (15) business days after Landlord's notice to Tenant designating the
"Market Rent". If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement, then the
following procedure shall be followed: within five (5) business days after the
expiration of the fifteen (15) day period described above, Landlord shall
promptly select an MAI appraiser or other real estate professional and Tenant
shall promptly select an MAI appraiser or other real estate professional (said
two appraisers or professionals are herein the "Initial Appraisers"). Each
appraiser shall be independent, familiar with office buildings and rents in the
north suburban Chicago area and with a minimum of ten (10) years experience in
evaluating office rents. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to designate its
Initial Appraiser within the five (5) business days described above, then the
Initial Appraiser that has been duly designated by the other party shall
determine the "Market Rent". The cost of each Initial Appraiser shall be paid
by the party selecting such appraiser. Each appraiser shall submit to Landlord
and Tenant, within fifteen (15) business days after both appointments, its
written appraisal of the "Market Rent" with respect to the space to be leased
based on a five (5) year term beginning as of the date of the Option Notice. If
the appraisals of the "Market Rent" determined by the Initial Appraisers are
less than ten percent (10%) apart (i.e., the higher appraisal is less than one
----
hundred ten percent (110%) of the lower appraisal), the "Market Rent" shall be
determined by taking the average of the two (2) appraisals. In the event the
appraisals of the "Market Rent" determined by the Initial Appraisers are ten
percent (10%) or more apart (i.e., the higher appraisal is one hundred ten
----
percent (110%) or more of the lower appraisal), the Initial Appraisers shall,
within five (5) business days thereafter, select a third appraiser with the same
qualifications or who meets the same criteria as required of the Initial
Appraisers ("Third Appraiser"). The Third Appraiser shall submit to Landlord
and Tenant, within fifteen (15) business days after its appointment, its written
appraisal of the "Market Rent" with respect to the space to be leased as of the
35
Option Notice. The cost of the Third Appraiser shall be borne equally by
Landlord and Tenant. If the appraisal of the Third Appraiser is ten percent
(10%) or less at variance from the point that is equidistant between the
appraisals of the Initial Appraisers, the average of the three (3) appraisals
shall determine the "Market Rent". If the appraisal of the Third Appraiser is
more than ten percent (10%) at variance from the point that is equidistant
between the appraisals of the Initial Appraisers, the "Market Rent" shall be
determined by taking the average of the two (2) closest appraisals.
(e) In the event Tenant exercises the Renewal Option, Landlord and
Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of the determination of the "Market Rent",
execute an amendment to the Lease to include the new Monthly Base Rent and
Annual Base Rent.
(f) The Renewal Option shall automatically terminate upon the
earliest to occur of: (i) the expiration or termination of the Lease; (ii) the
termination of Tenant's right to possession of the Premises; (iii) the failure
of Tenant to timely or properly exercise the Renewal Option; (iv) Tenant's
default in the performance of its obligations under the Lease which have not
been cured within the applicable grace period, if any; or (v) Tenant's
assignment or sublease of its interest under the Lease.
27. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) No receipt of money by the Landlord from the Tenant after the
termination of this Lease or after the service of any notice or after the
commencement of any suit, or after final judgment for possession of the demised
premises shall reinstate, continue to extend the term of this Lease or affect
any such notice, demand or suit.
(b) No waiver of any default of the Tenant hereunder shall be implied
from any omission by the Landlord to take any action on account of such default
if such default persists or be repeated, and no express waiver shall affect any
default other than the default specified in the express waver and then only for
the time and to the extent therein stated.
(c) The words "Landlord" and "Tenant" wherever used in the Lease
shall be construed to mean plural where necessary, and
36
the necessary grammatical changes required to make the provisions hereof apply
either to corporations or individuals, men or women, shall in all cases be
assumed as though in each case fully expressed.
(d) Each provision hereof shall extend to and shall, as the case may
require, bind and inure to the benefit of the Landlord and the Tenant and their
respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns in the event
this Lease has been assigned by Landlord or by Tenant with the express written
consent of the Landlord.
(e) Submission of this instrument for examination does not constitute
a reservation of or option for the premises. The instrument does not become
effective as a lease or otherwise until executed and delivered by both Landlord
and Tenant.
(f) All amounts (unless otherwise provided herein, and other than the
Base Rent and Rent Adjustment which shall be due as hereinbefore provided) owed
by the Tenant to the Landlord hereunder shall be deemed additional rent and be
paid within ten (10) days from the date the Landlord renders statements of
account therefor. All such amounts (including Base Rent and Rent Adjustment)
shall bear interest from the date due until the date paid at the rate of 2%
above the announced Corporate Base rate of interest in effect at The First
National Bank of Chicago on the date of payment or at the maximum legal rate of
interest, allowed by law, if such maximum legal rate is applicable and lower.
Whenever rent is referred to in this Lease, it shall include Base Rent, Rent
Adjustment and Additional Rent.
(g) All riders attached to this Lease and initialed by the Landlord
and the Tenant are hereby made a part of this Lease as though inserted in this
Lease.
(h) The headings of sections are for convenience only and do not
limit or construe the contents of the sections.
(i) If the Tenant shall occupy the premises prior to the beginning of
the term of this Lease with the Landlord's consent, all the provisions of this
Lease shall be in full force and effect as soon as the Tenant occupies the
premises.
37

and only with LaSalle Partners and U.S. Equities as broker in connection with
this Lease, and that insofar as the Landlord and Tenant know no other broker
negotiated this Lease or is entitled to any commission in connection therewith.
Landlord and Tenant each indemnifies and holds the other and its beneficiaries,
partners and their respective agents and employees harmless from all claims of
any other broker or brokers in connection with this Lease. Landlord shall not

brokers for (i) the Expansion Space if Tenant exercises the First Termination
Option or the Second Termination Option or (ii) the Initial Space for the
remaining term of the Lease for the Initial Space if and after the Tenant

title of the Tenant, and nothing herein contained shall empower the Tenant to do
any act which can, shall or may encumber such title.

performance and enforcement of this Lease.
(o) If any term, covenant or condition of this Lease or the
application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of
such term, covenant or condition to persons or circumstances other than those as
to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and
each term,
38
covenant or condition of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the
fullest extent permitted by law.
(p) Landlord has no obligation pursuant to this Lease except as
expressly provided for herein. Landlord's or Owner's liability hereunder shall
cease upon the transfer of Landlord's or Owner's interest in this Lease.

covenants, promises, agreements, conditions and understandings between Landlord
and Tenant, concerning the demised premises and there are no covenants,
promises, agreements, conditions or understandings, either oral or written,
between them other than are herein set forth. Except as herein otherwise

shall be binding upon Landlord or Tenant unless reduced to writing and signed by
them.
(r) The undersigned signators warrant that they have full power and
authority to execute this Lease on behalf of the respective parties hereto.
28. RESERVATION OF RIGHTS. Notwithstanding any provision of Section 6(b)
or Section 15 or the Lease to the contrary, no agreement of Tenant in Section
6(b) or 15 shall be deemed to exempt Landlord from liability for damage or
injury to persons or damage to property caused by or resulting from the
negligence or willful conduct of Landlord, its agents, servants, or employees in
the operation or maintenance of the Premises or the Building.
29. EXCULPATORY CLAUSE. This Lease is executed by LaSalle National Trust,
