5.06 Estimate Statement. Prior to the Commencement Date and on or about March 1st of each subsequent calendar year during the Term of this Lease, Master Lessor will endeavor to deliver to Master Lessee a statement (“Estimate Statement”) wherein Master Lessor will estimate both the Common Area Expenses and Master Lessee’s Monthly Common Area Expense Charge for the then current calendar year.

Page 7

Estimate Statement or the Estimate Statement for the succeeding calendar year; except that, concurrently with the regular monthly rent payment next due following the receipt of each such Estimate Statement, Master Lessee agrees to pay Master Lessor an amount equal to one monthly installment of Master Lessee’s estimated Monthly Common Area Expense Charge (less any applicable Common Area Expenses already paid) multiplied by the number of months from January, in the current calendar year, to the month of such rent payment next due, all months inclusive. If at any time during the Term of this Lease, but not more often than quarterly, Master Lessor reasonably determines that Master Lessee’s Share of Common Area Expenses for the current calendar year will be greater than the amount set forth in the then current Estimate Statement, Master Lessor may issue a revised Estimate Statement and Master Lessee agrees to pay Master Lessor, within ten (10) days of receipt of the revised Estimate Statement, the difference between the amount owed by Master Lessee under such revised Estimate Statement and the amount owed by Master Lessee under the original Estimate Statement for the portion of the then current calendar year which has expired. Thereafter Master Lessee agrees to pay Master Lessee’s Monthly Common Area Expense Charge based on such revised Estimate Statement until Master Lessee receives the next calendar year’s Estimate Statement or a new revised Estimate Statement for the current calendar year.

5.07 Actual Statement. By March 1st of each calendar year during the Term of this Lease, Master Lessor will also endeavor to deliver to Master Lessee a statement (“Actual Statement”) which states Master Lessee’s Share of the actual Common Area Expenses for the preceding calendar year. If the Actual Statement reveals that Master Lessee’s Share of the actual Common Area Expenses is more than the total Additional Rent paid by Master Lessee for Common Area Expenses on account of the preceding calendar year, Master Lessee agrees to pay Master Lessor the difference in a lump sum within ten (10) days of receipt of the Actual Statement. If the Actual Statement reveals that Master Lessee’s Share of the actual Common Area Expenses is less than the Additional Rent paid by Master Lessee for Common Area Expenses on account of the preceding calendar year, Master Lessor will credit any overpayment toward the next monthly installment(s) of Master Lessee’s Share of the Common Area Expenses due under this Lease.

5.08 Miscellaneous. Any delay or failure by Master Lessor in delivering any Estimate Statement or Actual Statement pursuant to this Section 4 will not constitute a waiver of its right to require an increase in rent nor will it relieve Master Lessee of its obligations pursuant to this Section. If Master Lessee does not object to any Estimate Statement or Actual Statement within thirty (30) days after Master Lessee receives any such statement, such statement will be deemed final and binding on Master Lessee. Even though the Term has expired and Master Lessee has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Master Lessee’s Share of the actual Common Area Expenses for the year in which this Lease terminates, Master Lessee agrees to promptly pay any increase due over the estimated expenses paid and, conversely, any overpayment made in the event said expenses decrease shall promptly be rebated by Master Lessor to Master Lessee. Such obligation will be a continuing one which will survive the expiration or termination

Page 8

of this Lease. Prior to the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term and Master Lessor’s acceptance of Master Lessee’s surrender of the Premises, Master Lessor will have the right to estimate the actual Common Area Expenses for the then current Lease Year and to collect from Master Lessee prior to Master Lessee’s surrender of the Premises, Master Lessee’s Share of any excess of such actual Common Area Expenses over the estimated Common Area Expenses paid by Master Lessee in such Lease Year.

(ii) Terminate this Lease, whether or not the leased Premises or any part thereof shall have been relet, by written notice to Master Lessee, whereupon this Lease shall end; provided, however, that no such termination of this Lease shall relieve Master Lessee of its liability and obligations under this Lease incurred prior to such termination. Upon such termination, Master Lessee shall be immediately liable for the damages, present and prospective, which were the necessary and direct result of Master Lessee’s breach, as well as for any special damages as may have resulted from such breach. All amounts and arrearages due and payable to Master Lessor by Master Lessee shall bear interest at the highest rate permitted by law.

(c) Treat the Lease as remaining in existence, curing Master Lessee’s default by performing or paying the obligation which Master Lessee has breached, all sums paid or expenses incurred by Master Lessor directly or indirectly incurring Master Lessee’s default, which amounts shall become immediately due and payable and shall bear interest at the highest rate permitted by law from the date of disbursement by Master Lessor until paid by Master Lessee. If the breach consists of a failure to pay the rent stipulated in this Lease and Master Lessor elects to treat the Lease as remaining in existence, Master Lessor can take such action as is necessary to recover the rent due as each installment matures or for the whole amount at the end of the term, or Master Lessor can immediately upon the breach take such action as is necessary to recover the entire remaining unpaid rent for the balance of the term hereof.

(d) Any failure by Master Lessor to insist, or any election by Master Lessor not to insist, upon strict performance by Master Lessee of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Lease shall not be deemed to be a waiver of same or of any other terms, provision or condition thereof and Master Lessor shall have the right at any time or times thereafter to insist upon strict performance by Master Lessee of any and all of such terms, provisions and conditions. Nothing contained in this Lease and no act done or omitted by Master Lessor pursuant to the powers and rights granted Master Lessor under the terms of this Lease shall be deemed to be a waiver by Master Lessor of the rights and remedies of Master Lessor under this Lease and this Lease is made and accepted without prejudice to any of the rights and remedies possessed by Master Lessor under the terms of this Lease. Further, in no event shall any such action or inaction described above by Master Lessor with respect to any of the terms and conditions contained herein, whether evidenced by a written agreement or otherwise, operate in any manner as the action or inaction of Master Lessor’s Lender or as the agreement of Master Lessor’s Lender and shall not affect in any manner any rights of Master Lessor’s Lender to enforce all of the terms and provisions herein or to bind Master Lessor’s Lender in any manner.

Page 14

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, Master Lessor shall have no right to exercise any of the remedies in this Article 13 without the prior written approval of Master Lessor’s Lender, which may be given or withheld in Master Lessor’s Lender’s sole discretion.

13.03. Indemnification. In addition to its other obligations under this Lease, the Master Lessee will indemnify and save harmless the Master Lessor (including the Master Lessor’s partners, members, shareholders, officers, directors and employees, each individually an “Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, costs, charges and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, which may be imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against such persons (except to the extent the same are caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of the Master Lessor, its agents, employees, licensees, invitees, contractors and/or subcontractors) by reason of any of the following:

(a) any work or thing done by anyone other than the Master Lessor in, on or about the Premises or any part thereof;

(b) any use, non-use, possession, occupation, condition, operation, maintenance or management of the Premises or any part thereof or any street, alley, sidewalk, curb, passageway or space adjacent thereto;

(c) any gross negligence of the Master Lessee or any agent, contractor, employee, licensee or invitee of the Master Lessee;

(d) any accident or injury to any person (including death) or damage to property occurring in, on or about the Premises or any part thereof or any street, alley, sidewalk, curb, passageway, or space adjacent thereto;

(e) any failure on the part of Master Lessee to perform or comply with any of the agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Lease on its part to be performed or complied with; and

(f) any default by Master Lessor, or any of the parties who together constitute Master Lessor, under this Lease, any Loan Document, any other agreement or obligation which relates to the Premises and is not made an obligation of the Master Lessee pursuant to this Lease.

Page 15

In the event that any action or proceeding shall be brought against an Indemnified Party by reason of any matter covered by this Section 13.03, the Master Lessee, upon notice from the Indemnified Party, will at the Master Lessee’s sole cost and expense resist or defend the same. To the extent of the proceeds received by the Master Lessor under any insurance policy furnished or supplied to the Master Lessor by the Master Lessee, the Master Lessee’s obligation to indemnify and save harmless an Indemnified Party against the hazard which is the subject of such insurance shall be deemed to be satisfied.

ARTICLE 14:

SUBORDINATION, ESTOPPEL AND LIENS

14.01. Subordination. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan and any and all Loan Documents, Master Lessor reserves the right to grant a mortgage or mortgages on Master Lessor’s interest in the Premises and this Lease. Master Lessee shall, upon the written request of Master Lessor accompanied by Master Lessor’s Lender’s written consent, subordinate this Lease to the lien of any mortgage upon the Premises; provided, that any subordination agreement to be signed by Master Lessee shall contain a non-disturbance provision that will remain effective as long as Master Lessee is not in default hereunder beyond any applicable cure period. Such agreement shall be substantially in the form reasonably satisfactory to Master Lessee and any such mortgagee. As used herein, “mortgage” shall include mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds to secure debt or other similar instruments, and any modifications or extensions of same.

14.02. Estoppel. Within 10 days after the request by either party, the other party agrees to deliver to the requesting party and to any potential mortgagee, assignee or purchaser of the requesting party’s interest in the Premises an estoppel certificate, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the requesting party, certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, whether same is in full force and effect as modified, and stating the modifications), that, to the certifying party or, to the reasonable knowledge and belief, there are no defenses or offsets thereto (or stating those claimed by the certifying party), that there are no defaults by the certifying party or, to the reasonable knowledge and belief of the certifying party, on the part of the requesting party (or, if such defaults exist, stating their nature) and such other matters as the requesting party may reasonably request; provided, however, that no such estoppel certificate shall be deemed to amend or modify this Lease.

14.03. Liens. Master Lessee shall have no authority, express or implied, to create or place a leasehold mortgage or any other lien or encumbrance of any kind or nature whatsoever upon, or in any manner to bind, the interest of Master Lessor in the Premises or to charge the rentals payable hereunder for any claim in favor of any person dealing with Master Lessee, including those who may furnish materials or perform labor for any construction or repairs, and each such claim shall affect and each such lien shall attach to, if at all, only the leasehold interest granted to Master

Page 16

Lessee by this Lease. Master Lessee covenants and agrees that it will pay or cause to be paid all sums legally due and payable by it on account of any labor performed or materials furnished in connection with any work performed on the Premises on which any lien is or can be validly and legally asserted against its leasehold interest in the Premises or the improvements thereon and that it will save and hold Master Lessor harmless from any and all loss, cost or expense based on or arising out of asserted claims or liens against the leasehold estate or against the right, title and interest of Master Lessor in the Premises or under the terms of this Lease. Master Lessee will not permit any mechanic’s lien or liens or any other liens which may be imposed by law affecting Master Lessor’s or its mortgagee’s interest in the Premises to be placed upon the Premises, and in case of the filing of any such lien Master Lessee will promptly pay or bond over same. If any such lien shall remain in force and effect for 20 days after written notice thereof, Master Lessor shall have the right and privilege at Master Lessor’s option of paying and discharging the same or any portion thereof without inquiry as to the validity thereof, and any amounts so paid, including expenses and interest, shall be so much additional indebtedness hereunder due from Master Lessee to Master Lessor and shall be repaid to Master Lessor immediately on rendition of a xxxx thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Master Lessee shall have the right to contest any such lien in good faith and with all due diligence so long as any such contest, or action taken in connection therewith, protects the interest of Master Lessor and Master Lessor’s mortgagee in the Premises and Master Lessor and any such mortgagee are, by the expiration of said 20 day period, furnished such protection and indemnification against any loss, cost or expense related to any such lien and the contest thereof as are reasonably satisfactory to Master Lessor and any such mortgagee. Except as otherwise provided herein, Master Lessor hereby waives any contractual, statutory or other Master Lessor’s lien on Master Lessee’s furniture, fixtures, supplies, equipment, inventory and Master Lessee’s other property.

14.04 Master Lessor’s Lender’s Rights. Master Lessor and Master Lessee acknowledge, for the benefit of Master Lessor’s Lender, that in connection with the Loan, Master Lessor’s Lender has or will receive an assignment of this Lease by an assignment of Leases and Rents to be recorded in the real estate records of XxXxxx County, Illinois, and that Master Lessor’s Lender is relying upon such assignment in making the Loan. Master Lessor and Master Lessee acknowledge and agree upon any Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents, Master Lessor’s Lender will be entitled to enforce such assignment of this Lease and replace Master Lessor under this Lease for all purposes. Master Lessee agrees, from and after notice from Master Lessor’s Lender of its exercise of rights under such assignment, to acknowledge Master Lessor’s Lender as Master Lessor and attorn to Master Lessor’s Lender under the Lease.

If, as a result of such proceedings, Master Lessor is forced to refund any payment made by Master Lessee to Master Lessor because it is found to be a preference or for any other reason, Guarantor hereby covenants to pay such amount to Master Lessor upon demand.
