Lease shall terminate or be terminated for any reason, or Sublandlord's right to

is hereby agreed that Sublandlord leases the Subleased Premises to Subtenant
upon each and all of the terms, conditions, covenants and obligations of the
Master Lease, and Subtenant hereby unconditionally and irrevocably accepts this
Sublease and the Subleased Premises subject to and upon, and hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally assumes and agrees to be bound by and perform, each and all
of the terms, conditions, covenants and obligations of the Master Lease binding
on the "Tenant" thereunder with respect to the Subleased Premises, and such
terms, conditions, covenants and obligations of the Master Lease are hereby
incorporated by reference herein as if Sublandlord were the "Landlord"
thereunder and Subtenant were the "Tenant" thereunder and the "Premises" therein
were the Subleased Premises, except as otherwise expressly provided herein and
except to the extent that the terms of the Master Lease are inconsistent with
the express terms of this Sublease.
(b) Subtenant
shall look solely and directly to the Master Landlord for any and all services
to be provided to the Subleased Premises pursuant to the Master Lease or
otherwise. Failure on the part of the Master Landlord or any party to

under this Sublease.

may from time to time request in seeking to enforce Master Landlord's
obligations to provide services and rights pursuant to the Master Lease;

reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) actually
incurred by Sublandlord in connection therewith. If and to the extent
Sublandlord receives an abatement of rent with respect to all or any portion of
the Subleased Premises on account of such lack of services, then Sublandlord
shall grant a parallel abatement (pertaining to such portion of the Subleased
Premises) to Subtenant. If Master Landlord shall default in the
performance of any of Master Landlord's obligations under the Master Lease,
Sublandlord shall, at Subtenant's written reasonable request, use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause Master Landlord to remedy such default (including
but not limited to promptly sending notice of such default to Master Landlord);
and if (x) such default shall continue uncured beyond the applicable cure period
provided in the Master Lease, and (y) Subtenant shall give notice to Sublandlord
requesting that Sublandlord institute an appropriate action or proceeding for
the enforcement of said Master Landlord obligations and Sublandlord shall fail
to do so within a reasonable time after Subtenant’s written request therefor (no
less than 20 days after receipt of such written request), then Subtenant shall
have the right to institute an appropriate action or proceeding against Master
Landlord in the name of Sublandlord to enforce Sublandlord’s rights under the
Master Lease which are applicable to Subtenant (and shall reasonably cooperate
with such reasonable requests of Subtenant as may be necessary to enable
Subtenant to proceed in Sublandlord’s name), using counsel reasonably acceptable
to Sublandlord (it being agreed that Xxxxxx, Xxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP is hereby
deemed acceptable).
(d) Sublandlord
shall not (A) (1) do anything which would constitute a violation or breach of
any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Master Lease or which would
cause the Master Lease to be terminated or forfeited. or (2) permit any such
violation or breach, (B) voluntarily cancel or surrender the Master Lease, or
(C) assign or sublease its interest thereunder (other than pursuant to this
Sublease).

force and effect as of the date hereof; (ii) a true, correct and complete copy
of the Master Lease has been

supplements thereto, and is attached hereto as Exhibit
A; (iii) Sublandlord has received no notice or claim that the Subleased

use, (iv) Sublandlord has fully performed its obligations under the Master Lease
in all material respects through the date of this Sublease, (v) to the knowledge
of Sublandlord, there are no pending claims against Sublandlord nor, to the
knowledge of Sublandlord, any facts that would reasonably be expected to give
rise to a claim against Sublandlord, under the Master Lease by the
counterparties thereto, (vi) there exists no defaults by Sublandlord
(or any event that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both,
would constitute a default on the part of Sublandlord) under the Master Lease
and (vii) to Sublandlord’s knowledge, there exists no defaults by Master
Landlord (or any event that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or
both, would constitute a default by Master Landlord) under the Master
Lease.
(i) Sublandlord
shall not modify the Master Lease without Subtenant's prior consent, and any
such modification shall not be effective against Subtenant without Subtenant's
written consent.
(j) Wherever

Master Landlord prior to taking any action, Subtenant shall notify Sublandlord

withheld in Sublandlord's reasonable discretion. This Sublease shall
not be assigned by operation of law. Any attempt to sell, assign, or
sublet without the reasonable consent of Sublandlord and Master Landlord (if
required under the Master Lease) shall constitute a default hereunder by
Subtenant.

occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an Event of Default by
Subtenant:
(a) Failure

Lease when due and owing by Subtenant and such failure continues for three (3)

thirty (30) days after notice has been given to Subtenant. If the
default is curable, but cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days,
Subtenant shall not be in default of this Sublease if Subtenant commences to
cure the default within the thirty (30) day period and diligently and in good
faith continues to cure the default, provided, however that in no event shall a
default remain uncured for a period of more than ninety (90) days.

notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this section, Subtenant
shall not be obligated to indemnify Sublandlord against any such loss, cost,
damage, expense or liability to the extent caused by Sublandlord’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct. In case any action or proceeding is
brought against Sublandlord by reason of any such claim, Subtenant, upon notice
from Sublandlord, covenants to diligently defend such action or proceeding, and
to retain legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to Sublandlord in connection
therewith.
12. Indemnification by
