4.02 STATEMENT OF LANDLORD - Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to Tenant an operating statement showing the actual Operating Expenses incurred for the preceding calendar year within 120 days after the end of each calendar year.

Any additional sum owed by one party to the other shall be paid within thirty (30) days of receipt of assessment. Landlord shall maintain books and records showing Operating Expenses and real estate taxes in accordance with sound accounting and management practices, consistently applied. The Tenant or its representative (which representative shall be a certified public accountant, in no manner compensated on a contingency basis, licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is located) shall have the right, for a period of forty five (45) days following the date upon which Landlord’s statement is delivered to Tenant, to examine Operating Expenses and Taxes during Standard Operating Hours, upon written notice, delivered at least three (3) business days in advance. If Tenant does not object in writing to Landlord’s statement within forty five (45) days of Tenant’s receipt thereof, specifying the nature of the item in dispute and the reasons therefore, then Landlord’s statement shall be considered final and accepted by Tenant. If Operating Expenses or Taxes for any calendar year are overstated by more than four percent (4%), the third party costs and expenses of Tenant’s review shall be split equally between Landlord and Tenant. Any amount due to the Landlord as shown on Landlord’s statement, whether or not disputed by Tenant as provided herein shall be paid by Tenant when due as provided above, without prejudice to any such written exception. The respective obligations of the parties hereto pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall survive the termination of this Lease.
ARTICLE FIVE
SECURITY DEPOSIT
Tenant concurrently with the execution of this Lease shall pay to Landlord the Security Deposit. The Security Deposit may be applied by Landlord to cure any Default of Tenant under this Lease, and upon notice by Landlord of such application, Tenant shall replenish the Security Deposit in full by paying to Landlord within ten (10) days of demand the amount so applied. The failure to so replenish the Security Deposit shall be a Default hereunder. Landlord shall not pay any interest on the Security Deposit. The Security Deposit shall not be deemed an advance payment of Rent, nor a measure of damages for any default by Tenant under this Lease, nor shall it be a bar or defense to any action which Landlord may at any time commence against Tenant. In the absence of evidence satisfactory to Landlord of an assignment of the right to receive the Security Deposit or the remaining balance thereof, and provided Tenant has complied with all of its obligations hereunder, Landlord may return the Security Deposit 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.

For services or utilities requested by Tenant and furnished by Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as a charge therefor Landlord’s prevailing rates for such services and utilities as charged to each other tenant in the Building. If Tenant shall fail to make any such payment, Landlord may, upon notice to Tenant and in addition to Landlord’s other remedies under this Lease, discontinue any or all of the additional services.

Such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay all costs incurred in connection with the installation of telephone cables and related wiring in the Premises, including, without limitation, any hook-up, access and maintenance fees related to the installation of such wires and cables in the Premises and the commencement of service therein, and the maintenance thereafter of such wire and cables. Additionally, there shall be included in Operating Expenses for the Building all installation, hook-up or maintenance costs incurred by Landlord in connection with telephone cables and related wiring in the Building which are not allocable to any individual users of such service but are allocable to the Building generally. If Tenant fails to maintain all telephone cables and related wiring in the Premises and such failure affects or interferes with the operation or maintenance of any other telephone cables or related wiring in the Building, Landlord or any vendor hired by Landlord may enter into and upon the Premises forthwith and perform such repairs, restorations or alterations as Landlord deems necessary in order to eliminate any such interference (and Landlord may recover from Tenant all of Landlord’s costs in connection therewith). Upon the Termination Date, Tenant agrees to remove all telephone cables and related wiring installed by Tenant for and during Tenant’s occupancy, which Landlord shall request Tenant to remove. Tenant agrees that neither Landlord nor any of its agents or employees shall be liable to Tenant, or any of Tenant’s employees, agents, customers or invitees or anyone claiming through, by or under Tenant, for any damages, injuries, losses, expenses, claims or causes of action because of any interruption, diminution, delay or discontinuance at any time by any third party for any reason in the furnishing of any telephone service to the Premises and the Building.
6.05 DELAYS IN FURNISHING SERVICES - Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be in breach of this Lease nor liable to Tenant for damages or otherwise, for any failure to furnish, or a delay in furnishing, or a change in the quantity or character of any service when such failure, delay or change is occasioned, in whole or in part, by repairs, improvements or mechanical breakdowns by the act or default of Tenant or other parties or by an event of Force Majeure. No such failure, delay or change shall be deemed to be an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use and possession of the Premises, or relieve Tenant from paying Rent or from performing any other obligations of Tenant under this Lease without any deduction or offset. Failure to any extent to make available, or any slowdown, stoppage, or interruption of, the specified utility services resulting from any cause beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, changes in service provider or Landlord’s compliance with any voluntary or similar governmental or business guidelines now or hereafter published or any requirements now or hereafter established by any governmental agency, board, or bureau having jurisdiction over the operation of the Building shall not render Landlord liable in any respect for damages to either persons, property, or business, nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant or work an abatement of Rent, nor relieve Tenant of Tenant’s obligations for fulfillment of any covenant or agreement hereof. Should any equipment or machinery furnished by Landlord break down or for any cause cease to function properly, Landlord shall use reasonable diligence to repair same promptly, but Tenant shall have no
10
claim for abatement of Rent or damages on account of any interruption of service occasioned thereby or resulting therefrom unless Landlord fails to make such repair.
6.06 CHOICE OF SERVICE PROVIDER - Tenant acknowledges that Landlord may, at Landlord’s sole option, to the extent permitted by applicable law, elect to change, from time to time, the company or companies which provide services (including, without limitation, electrical service, gas service, water and technical services) to the Building, the Premises and/or its occupants. Landlord shall endeavor to give Tenant not less than thirty (30) days notice of any scheduled change. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has not and does not make any representations or warranties concerning the identity or identities of the company or companies which provide services to the Building and the Premises or its occupants and Tenant acknowledges that the choice of service providers and matters concerning the engagement and termination thereof shall be solely that of Landlord. The foregoing provision is not intended to modify, amend, change or otherwise derogate any provision of this Lease concerning the nature or type of service to be provided or any specific information concerning the amount thereof to be provided. Tenant agrees to cooperate with Landlord and each of its service providers in connection with any change in service or provider.

The parties hereby agree that: (a) Landlord shall be responsible for ADA Title III compliance in the Common Areas, except as provided below, (b) Tenant shall be responsible for ADA Title III compliance in the Premises, including any leasehold improvements or other work to be performed in the Premises under or in connection with this Lease, (c) Landlord may perform, or require that Tenant perform, and Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of, ADA Title III “path of travel” requirements triggered by alterations in the Premises, and (d) Landlord may perform, or require Tenant to perform, and Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of, ADA Title III compliance in the Common Areas necessitated by the Building being deemed to be a “public accommodation” instead of a “commercial facility” as a result of Tenant’s use of the Premises.

(b) If Tenant shall not be personally present to permit an entry into the Premises when for any reason an entry therein shall be necessary or permissible, Landlord (or Landlord’s agents), after attempting to notify Tenant (unless Landlord believes an emergency situation exists), may enter the Premises without rendering Landlord or its agents liable therefor (if during such entry Landlord or Landlord’s agent shall accord reasonable care to Tenant’s property), and without relieving Tenant of any obligations under this Lease.
(c) Landlord may enter the Premises for the purpose of conducting such inspections, tests and studies as Landlord may deem desirable or necessary to confirm Tenant’s compliance with all Laws and Environmental Laws or for other purposes necessary in Landlord’s reasonable judgment to ensure the sound condition of the Property and the systems serving the Property. Landlord’s rights under this Section 7.02(c) are for Landlord’s own protection only, and Landlord has not, and shall not be deemed to have assumed any responsibility to Tenant or any other party for compliance with Laws or Environmental Laws, as a result of the exercise or non-exercise of such rights.
(d) Landlord may do any of the foregoing, or undertake any of the inspection or work described in the preceding paragraphs without such action constituting an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant, in

All Tenant Alterations shall be completed at such time and in such manner as Landlord may from time to time designate, and only by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord, which designation and approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, and whose work will not cause or threaten to cause disharmony or interference with Landlord or other tenants in the Building and their respective agents and contractors performing work in or about the Building.

Tenant shall notify Landlord immediately if Tenant receives any notice of violation of any Law in connection with completion of any Tenant Alterations and shall immediately take such steps as are necessary to remedy such violation. In no event shall such supervision or right to supervise by Landlord nor shall any approvals given by Landlord under this Lease constitute any warranty by Landlord to Tenant of the adequacy of the design, workmanship or quality of such work or materials for Tenant’s intended use or of compliance with the requirements of Section 9.01(a) (3) (i) and (ii) above or impose any liability upon Landlord in connection with the performance of such work.

such lien or claim of lien is filed, Tenant shall within ten (10) days of receiving notice of such lien or claim (a) have such lien or claim of lien released of record or (b) deliver to Landlord a bond in form, content, amount, and issued by surety, satisfactory to Landlord, indemnifying, protecting, defending and holding harmless the Indemnitees against all costs and liabilities resulting from such lien or claim of lien and the foreclosure or attempted foreclosure thereof. If Tenant fails to take any of the above actions, Landlord, in addition to its rights and remedies under Article Eleven, without investigating the validity of such lien or claim for lien, may pay or discharge the same and Tenant shall, as payment of additional Rent hereunder, reimburse Landlord upon demand for the amount so paid by Landlord, including Landlord’s expenses and attorneys’ fees.

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
10.01 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING -
(a) Without the prior written consent of Landlord, Tenant may not sublease, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer or permit the transfer of this Lease or the encumbering of Tenant’s interest therein in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises, or any part thereof, by anyone other than Tenant. If Tenant desires to enter into any sublease of the Premises or assignment of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver written notice thereof to Landlord (“Tenant’s Notice”), together with the identity of the proposed subtenant or assignee and the proposed principal terms thereof and financial and other information sufficient for Landlord to make an informed judgment with respect to such proposed subtenant or assignee at least forty five (45) days prior to the commencement date of the term of the proposed sublease or assignment. If Tenant proposes to sublease less than all of the Rentable Area of the Premises, the space proposed to be sublet and the space retained by Tenant must each be a marketable unit as reasonably determined by Landlord and otherwise in compliance with all Laws. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of its approval or disapproval of the proposed sublease or assignment or its decision to exercise its rights under Section 10.02 within twenty (20) days after receipt of Tenant’s Notice (and all required information). In no event may Tenant sublease any portion of the Premises or assign the Lease to any other tenant of the Building. Tenant shall submit for Landlord’s approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) any advertising which Tenant or its agents intend to use with respect to the space proposed to be sublet.
(b) With respect to Landlord’s consent to an assignment or sublease, Landlord may take into consideration any factors which Landlord may deem relevant, and the reasons for which Landlord’s denial shall be deemed to be reasonable shall include, without limitation, the following: (i) the business reputation or creditworthiness of any proposed assignee is not acceptable to Landlord; (ii) in Landlord’s reasonable judgment the proposed assignee or sublessee would diminish the value or reputation of the Building or Landlord; (iii) any proposed assignee’s or sublessee’s use of the Premises would violate Section 7.01 of the Lease or would violate the provisions of any other leases of tenants in the Building; (iv) the proposed assignee or sublessee is either a governmental agency, a school or similar operation, or a medical related practice; (v) the proposed sublessee or assignee is a bona fide prospective tenant of Landlord in the Building as demonstrated by a written proposal dated within ninety (90) days prior to the date of Tenant’s request; or (vi) the proposed sublessee or assignee would materially increase the estimated pedestrian and vehicular traffic to and from the Premises and the Building. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to consider a consent to any proposed (i) sublease of the Premises or assignment of the Lease if a Default then exists under the Lease, or a fact or condition exists, which but for the giving of notice or the passage of time would constitute a Default, or (ii) assignment of the Lease which would assign less than the entire Premises. In the event Tenant believes that Landlord has wrongfully withheld its consent to any proposed sublease of the Premises or assignment of the Lease, Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy therefor shall be to seek specific performance or a declaratory judgment of Landlord’s obligations to consent to such sublease or assignment.
15
(c) Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to a subletting or assignment under this Section 10.01. Any approved sublease or assignment shall be expressly subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease. Any such subtenant or assignee shall execute such documents as Landlord may reasonably require to evidence such subtenant or assignee’s assumption of such obligations and liabilities. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of all agreements executed by Tenant and the proposed subtenant and assignee with respect to the Premises. Landlord’s approval of a sublease or assignment shall not constitute a waiver of Landlord’s right to consent to further assignments or subleases. Furthermore, Tenant shall remain jointly and severally liable for the performance of all terms and conditions of this Lease, notwithstanding any sublease or assignment to which Landlord may have consented.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article Ten, Tenant shall have the right, without the prior written consent of Landlord, to sublease the Premises to an Affiliate or to assign this Lease to an Affiliate, but (i) no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the effective date of the assignment or sublease, the assignee or sublessee shall execute documents reasonably satisfactory to Landlord to evidence such subtenant or assignee’s assumption of the obligations and liabilities of Tenant under this Lease, except in the case of any assignment which occurs by operation of law (and without a written assignment) as a consequence of merger, consolidation or non-bankruptcy reorganization; (ii) within ten (10) days after the effective date of such assignment or sublease, give notice to Landlord which notice shall include the full name and address of the assignee or subtenant, and a copy of all agreements executed between Tenant and the assignee or subtenant with respect to the Premises; and (iii) within fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s request, such documents or information which Landlord reasonably requests for the purpose of substantiating whether or not the assignment or sublease is to an Affiliate.

All such costs will be amortized over the term of the sublease or assignment pursuant to sound accounting principles.
10.04 TENANT LIABILITY - In the event of any sublease or assignment, whether or not with Landlord’s consent, Tenant shall not be released or discharged from any liability, whether past, present or future, under this Lease, including any liability arising from the exercise of any renewal or expansion option, except to the extent expressly permitted by Landlord. Tenant’s liability shall remain primary, and in the event of default by any subtenant, assignee or successor of Tenant in performance or observance of any of the covenants or conditions of this Lease, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against said subtenant, assignee or successor. If Landlord grants consent to such sublease or assignment, Tenant shall pay all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by Landlord with respect to such assignment or sublease. In addition, if Tenant has any options to extend the term of this Lease or to add other space to the Premises, such options shall not be available to any subtenant or assignee, directly or indirectly without Landlord’s express written consent, which may be given, or not given, in Landlord’s sole discretion.
16
10.05 ASSUMPTION AND ATTORNMENT - If Tenant shall assign this Lease as permitted herein, the assignee shall expressly assume all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder in a written instrument satisfactory to Landlord and furnished to Landlord not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the effective date of the assignment.

(a) If a Default occurs, Landlord shall have the rights and remedies hereinafter set forth, which shall be distinct and cumulative, and which shall be in addition to all other remedies available under applicable law: (i) Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving Tenant notice of Landlord’s election to do so, in which event, the term of this Lease shall end and all of Tenant’s rights and interests shall expire on the date stated in such notice; (ii) Landlord may terminate Tenant’s right of possession of the Premises without terminating this Lease by giving notice to Tenant that Tenant’s right of possession shall end on the date specified in such notice; or (iii) Landlord may enforce the provisions of this Lease and may enforce and protect the rights of the Landlord hereunder by a suit or suits in equity or at law for the specific performance
17
of any covenant or agreement contained herein, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy.
(b) In the event that Landlord terminates the Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to recover all Landlord’s expenses of reletting, including without limitation, repairs, alterations, improvements, additions, decorations, legal fees and brokerage commissions (collectively, the “Reletting Expenses”).
(c) In the event Landlord proceeds pursuant to subparagraph (a)(ii) above, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to relet the Premises, or any part thereof for the account of Tenant, for such rent and term and upon such terms and conditions as are reasonably acceptable to Landlord. If the Premises are relet and the consideration realized therefrom after payment of all Landlord’s Reletting Expenses, is insufficient to satisfy the payment when due of Rent reserved under this Lease for any monthly period, then Tenant shall pay Landlord upon demand any such deficiency (the “Deficiency”) monthly, or at Landlord’s option, Tenant shall pay the Deficiency which Landlord reasonably estimates will be due for the remainder of the Term. If such consideration is greater than the amount necessary to pay the full amount of the Rent, the full amount of such excess shall be retained by Landlord and shall in no event be payable to Tenant. Tenant agrees that upon its Default, Landlord may either file suit to collect the Deficiency for the remainder of the Term, or may file suit to recover any sums due to Landlord hereunder from time to time, in which event such suit or recovery of any amount due Landlord hereunder shall not be any defense to any subsequent action brought for any amount not theretofore reduced to judgment in favor of Landlord.
(d) In the event a Default occurs, Landlord may, at Landlord’s option, enter into the Premises, remove Tenant’s property, fixtures, furnishings, signs and other evidences of tenancy, and take and hold such property; provided, however, that such entry and possession shall not terminate this Lease or release Tenant, in whole or in part, from Tenant’s obligation to pay the Rent reserved hereunder for the full Term or from any other obligation of Tenant under this Lease. Any and all property which may be removed from the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the authority of the Lease or law, to which Tenant is or may be entitled, may be handled, removed or stored by Landlord at the risk, cost and expense of Tenant, and Landlord shall in no event be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. Tenant shall pay 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 Landlord’s control. Any such property of Tenant not retaken from storage by Tenant within thirty (30) days after the Termination Date, shall be conclusively presumed to have been conveyed by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease as a xxxx of sale without further payment or credit by Landlord to Tenant.
11.03 ATTORNEY’S FEES - Tenant shall be liable for, and shall pay upon demand, all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Landlord in enforcing the Tenant’s performance of its obligations under this Lease, or resulting from Tenant’s Default (regardless of whether suit is initiated), or incurred by Landlord in any litigation, negotiation or transaction in which Tenant causes Landlord, without Landlord’s fault, to become involved or concerned.
11.04 BANKRUPTCY - The following provisions shall apply in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of Tenant:
(a) In connection with any proceeding under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code where the trustee of Tenant elects to assume this Lease for the purposes of assigning it, such election or assignment, may only be made upon compliance with the provisions of (b) and (c) below, which conditions Landlord and Tenant acknowledge to be commercially reasonable. In the event the trustee elects to reject this Lease then Landlord shall immediately be entitled to possession of the Premises without further obligation to Tenant or the trustee.
18
(b) Any election to assume this Lease under Chapter 11 or 13 of the Bankruptcy Code by Tenant as debtor-in-possession or by Tenant’s trustee (the “Electing Party”) must provide for:
