ARTICLE 1.
LEASE OF PREMISES AND LEASE TERM
1.1 Premises
In consideration of the mutual covenants this Lease describes and other good and valuable consideration, Landlord leases the Premises to Tenant and Tenant leases the Premises from Landlord, upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Lease. Subject to verification and adjustment as provided below, Landlord and Tenant presently believe that the useable area and rentable area of the Premises are as specified in the Basic Terms. Prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant, Landlord’s Architect’s determination of both the useable area and the rentable area of the Premises in accordance with the BOMA Standards (“Landlord’s Determination”). If the determination of the rentable area of the Premises in accordance with BOMA Standards, differs from the rentable area specified in the Basic Terms, Landlord and Tenant will amend this Lease to adjust accordingly the rentable square footage of the Premises, Base Rent, Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses Percentage, any and all Improvement Allowances and
3
all other matters in this Lease which are determined, calculated or otherwise affected by the rentable square footage of the Premises. In the event that a licensed Florida architect engaged by the Tenant shall dispute Landlord’s Determination, based on the BOMA Standards, and Tenant provides written notice (the “Dispute Notice”) to Landlord within thirty (30) days after Landlord provides Tenant with Landlord’s Determination (the “Dispute Notice Date”) detailing the basis for such dispute, the following dispute resolution procedure shall apply: (i) to the extent that the difference between the two (2) architects’ measurements is less than a two percent (2%) differential, then the two (2) measurements shall be averaged or (ii) to the extent that the difference between the two (2) architects’ measurements is greater than a two percent (2%) differential, then the Landlord’s and Tenant’s architects shall select a third architect who shall make a measurement of the Premises, based on the BOMA Standards, which measurement made by the third architect shall be averaged with the measurement made by the Landlord’s architect or the Tenant’s architect, whichever of the two shall be the closer in amount to that of the third architect, and such average shall be conclusively binding on each of Landlord and Tenant. The cost of the third architect shall be shared equally between Landlord and Tenant. To the extent either of Landlord or Tenant owe monies to the other due to such adjustment of previously paid Base Rent and/or Additional Rent, such amount shall be either: (i) paid to Landlord by Tenant with the next upcoming monthly installment of Base Rent due (in the event that Tenant owes monies to Landlord) or (ii) credited against the next upcoming installment of monthly Base Rent (in the event that Landlord owes monies to Tenant). In the event that the rentable area of the Premises, as so determined, shall be more than 90,000 rentable square feet, for purposes of this Lease, the rentable area of the Premises itself shall nevertheless be deemed not to exceed 90,000 rentable square feet; if the rentable area of the Premises, as so determined, shall be less than 81,750 rentable square feet, then, within ten (10) Business Days following Tenant’s receipt of the binding determination of such rentable area, Tenant shall have the right by written notice to Landlord to terminate this Lease. If Tenant does not provide the Dispute Notice on or before the Dispute Notice Date, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to dispute the measurement of the useable and rentable square footage of the Premises, and Landlord’s Determination shall be deemed conclusive for all purposes.
1.2 Term, Delivery and Commencement.
1.2.1 Commencement and Expiration of Term.
The Term of this Lease is the period stated in the Basic Terms. The Term commences on the Commencement Date and expires on the last day of the one hundred eightieth (180th) calendar month after the Rent Commencement Date.
1.2.2 Tender of Possession.
Landlord will achieve Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements and tender possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before the Delivery Date subject to extension for Force Majeure and Tenant Delay. If Landlord is unable to tender possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before the Delivery Date, this Lease remains in full force and effect and Landlord is not liable to Tenant for any resulting loss or damage, subject, however, to the terms of this Section 1.2.2. To the extent the date of Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements and delivery of the Premises to Tenant (the “Substantial Completion Date”) does not occur on or before the Delivery Date for reasons other than delays caused by Force Majeure or Tenant Delays, then Tenant shall receive a credit against the first accruing payments of Basic Rent due hereunder in an amount equal to two (2)
4
days of per diem Basic Rent for each one (1) day after the Delivery Date until the Substantial Completion Date actually occurs. To the extent the Substantial Completion of the Premises is delayed beyond the Delivery Date because of Tenant Delay, the Commencement Date shall be the date that Substantial Completion would have occurred but for the Tenant Delay, and Tenant shall receive no credit against Basic Rent. To the extent the Substantial Completion of the Premises is delayed because of Tenant Delay, but nevertheless occurs on or before the Delivery Date, the Commencement Date shall be the Substantial Completion Date, and the Rent Commencement Date shall be the date fourteen (14) days after the Delivery Date; provided, however, Tenant shall pay Pre-Delivery Date Rent in accordance with Section 2.1 below. If the delay in Substantial Completion of the Premises is caused by Force Majeure, the Delivery Date shall be adjusted day-for-day for the period of existence of the Force Majeure, but Tenant shall receive no credit against Basic Rent.
In the event that the Substantial Completion Date has not occurred by the date that is thirteen (13) months after the Effective Date, subject to extension for Tenant Delay and Force Majeure (the “Outside Delivery Date”), then Tenant may thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements, give written notice within ten (10) days after the Outside Delivery Date, to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to terminate this Lease (the “Tenant’s Termination Notice”). If the Substantial Completion Date has not occurred within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Termination Notice, this Lease will terminate automatically with no further action necessary by either party. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s delivery of Tenant’s Termination Notice, and if Tenant has not delivered Tenant’s Termination Notice within ten (10) days after the Outside Delivery Date, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Lease pursuant to this paragraph.
If the Substantial Completion Date has not occurred by the date that is sixteen (16) months after the Effective Date subject to extension for Tenant Delay and Force Majeure [but only Force Majeure events that occur on an area-wide basis (e.g., hurricane or large scale interruption of utilities) (“Area-Wide Force Majeure”) as opposed to site-specific Force Majeure events (e.g., lightning strike to the Building) (“Site-Specific Force Majeure”)] (the “Second Outside Delivery Date”), then Tenant may thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements, give written notice within ten (10) days after the Second Outside Delivery Date, to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to terminate this Lease (the “Tenant’s Second Termination Notice”). If the Substantial Completion Date has not occurred within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Second Termination Notice, this Lease will terminate automatically with no further action necessary by either party. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s delivery of Tenant’s Second Termination Notice, and if Tenant has not delivered Tenant’s Second Termination Notice within ten (10) days after the Second Outside Delivery Date, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Lease pursuant to this paragraph.
In the event of a termination of this Lease pursuant to this Section 1.2.2, Landlord and Tenant shall be released from any further obligation or liability to each other, other than those obligations that specifically survive the termination of this Lease and the obligations of Landlord in the immediately following two (2) sentences. In addition, if Tenant terminates this Lease in accordance with this Section 1.2.2, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for Tenant’s rental costs for space used to accommodate the facilities and/or personnel intended to be located in the Premises for a period of up to one (1) year after the date Tenant delivers the Tenant’s Termination Notice (“Tenant’s Temporary Rental Costs”), up to a maximum of $367,500.00. Tenant will provide Landlord with any applicable lease documents relating to Tenant’s Temporary Rental Costs, and Landlord shall pay Tenant’s
5
Temporary Rental Costs to Tenant within five (5) days after receipt of an invoice (including invoices received by Tenant from its Landlord, if any) from Tenant, but in no event more frequently than once per month.
Tenant’s rent credit, Tenant’s termination rights, and Tenant’s right to reimbursement, as described in this Section 1.2.2, shall constitute Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedies in the event that the Commencement Date does not occur on or before the Delivery Date, Outside Delivery Date or the Second Outside Delivery Date, as the case may be.
1.2.3 Commencement Date Memorandum.
Within a reasonable time after the Commencement Date, Landlord will deliver to Tenant the Commencement Date Memorandum with all blanks relating to dates completed with dates Landlord derives in accordance with this Lease. Tenant, within 10 days after receipt from Landlord, will execute and deliver to Landlord the Commencement Date Memorandum. Tenant’s failure to execute and deliver to Landlord the Commencement Date Memorandum does not affect any obligation of Tenant under this Lease. If Tenant does not timely execute and deliver to Landlord the Commencement Date Memorandum, Landlord and any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer may conclusively rely on the information contained in the unexecuted Commencement Date Memorandum Landlord delivered to Tenant.

1.2.5 Option to Renew.
Tenant shall have the right, to be exercised as hereinafter provided, to extend the term of this Lease for two (2) extension periods of five (5) years each, each such period sometimes hereinafter referred to as a “Renewal Term” and such periods sometimes hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Renewal Terms,” upon the following terms and conditions and subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth.
(a) At the time hereinafter set forth for the exercise of each Renewal Term and as of the commencement of such Renewal Term, this Lease shall be in full force and effect and no Event of Default by Tenant shall exist under any of the terms, covenants and conditions herein contained which has not been remedied within the applicable cure period provided for under this Lease.
(b) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease, each Renewal Term shall be upon the same terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Lease, including, but not limited to, Tenant’s obligation to pay Additional Rent, and any other cost or charge which may be due and payable by Tenant under the Lease shall continue to be applicable to such Extension Term, except that the annual Basic Rent for the first Lease Year of each Renewal Term shall be equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the then Fair Market Basic Rent (as hereinafter defined) for the Premises (the “Renewal Basic Rent”). At the commencement of the second Lease Year and each subsequent Lease Year of each five (5) year Renewal Term, the Basic Rent shall be increased to an amount equal to 102% of the Basic Rent for the immediately preceding Lease Year. All other payments on the part of Tenant to be made as provided in this Lease shall continue to be made during each of the Renewal Terms including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, impositions, insurance premiums and other expenses and charges to the extent payable by Tenant hereunder. Landlord and Tenant
6
shall endeavor to agree upon the Fair Market Basic Rent of the Premises prior to commencement of a given Renewal Term. Landlord shall communicate its determination of the Fair Market Basic Rent made in Landlord’s reasonable determination, pursuant to the criteria set forth in Section 1.2.6(c), below, to Tenant not later than fifteen (15) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or the first Renewal Term, as the case may be. Any agreement reached by the parties hereto with respect to such Fair Market Basic Rent for a given Renewal Term shall be expressed in writing and shall be executed by the parties hereto, and a copy thereof delivered to each of the parties. Should Landlord and Tenant fail to agree at least fourteen (14) months prior to the commencement of a given Renewal Term upon the Fair Market Basic Rent of the Premises, then such Renewal Basic Rent shall be Fair Market Basic Rent determined by arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Section` hereof. “Fair Market Basic Rent “ shall mean the Basic Rent, as determined by Landlord and Tenant on the basis of the then prevailing market rental rates and economic terms for office space in Comparable Buildings for tenants seeking to lease approximately the same amount of rentable area as that of the Premises then leased by Tenant pursuant to this Lease. In determining the Fair Market Basic Rent for the Premises, Landlord shall consider all elements affecting the proposed lease transaction including, but not limited to, those factors set forth in Section 1.2.6 (c).
(c) The Renewal Basic Rent during each Renewal Term shall be payable in equal monthly installments, equal to 1/12 of the annual Renewal Basic Rent, in advance on the first day of each calendar month during a Renewal Term.
(d) Tenant shall exercise its right to extend the term of this Lease for the aforesaid Renewal Terms by notifying Landlord, in writing, of its election to exercise the right to renew and extend the term of this Lease on or before the date which is at least twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the initial term of this Lease, in the case of the first Renewal Term, or a date which is at least twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the first Renewal Term, in the case of the second Renewal Term. Time shall be of the essence with respect to such notices.
(e) There shall be no further or additional right to renew this Lease other than as is herein set forth. Any termination of this Lease shall terminate any later right of renewal hereunder.
1.2.6 Arbitration
Any disagreement, dispute or determination required by or arising under the provisions of Section 1.2.5 (the “Option to Renew”) hereof requiring arbitration shall be carried on and concluded in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) In each case where it shall become necessary to resort to arbitration, and the subject of the arbitration is to determine Fair Market Basic Rent, all arbitrators appointed by or on behalf of either party or appointed pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be MAI members of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers of improved commercial and industrial real estate in the Ft. Lauderdale, Florida metropolitan area and be devoting substantially all of their time to professional appraisal work at the time of appointment and be in all respects impartial and disinterested and having at least ten (10) years experience in determining fair market rental rates for commercial buildings.
(b) The party desiring such arbitration shall give written notice to that effect to the other party, specifying in such notice the name, address and professional qualifications of the person
7
designated to act as arbitrator on its behalf. Within fifteen (15) days after service of such notice, the other party shall give written notice to the party desiring such arbitration specifying the name, address and professional qualifications of the person designated to act as arbitrator on its behalf. If the two (2) arbitrators so selected cannot agree within fifteen (15) days after the appointment of the second arbitrator, the two (2) arbitrators shall, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, select a third arbitrator. The three (3) arbitrators so selected (collectively, the “Arbitrators”) shall use best efforts to unanimously agree upon the Fair Market Basic Rent, utilizing the criteria set forth in subsection (c), below, and the decision of the Arbitrators shall be given within a period of fifteen (15) days after the appointment of such third arbitrator. In the event the Arbitrators cannot unanimously agree upon the Fair Market Basic Rent, then Landlord and Tenant agree that the Fair Market Basic Rent shall be the average of the Arbitrators’ written valuations. Tenant shall have the right to either (i) accept the Arbitrators’ determination of the Fair Market Base Rental or (ii) reject such Arbitrators’ determination, whereupon this Lease shall expire upon the end of the initial Lease Term or First Renewal Term, as the case may be, within twenty (20) days following receipt of the Arbitrators’ determination. Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator appointed by or on behalf of such party and the fees and expenses of the third Arbitrator shall be borne equally by both parties. If the party receiving a request for arbitration fails to appoint its Arbitrator within the time above specified, then either party, on behalf of both parties, may request such appointment of such second or third Arbitrator, as the case may be, by application to any Judge of the Circuit Court of the County of Broward, State of Florida, upon ten (10) days prior written notice to the other party of such intent. The Arbitrators so selected shall have all rights and powers conferred on them by the Florida Arbitration Code and, except as otherwise provided for herein, the arbitration proceedings shall be carried on and governed by such Code. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in all events, the above-described arbitration process shall be completed no later than ten (10) days prior to the applicable notice date described in Section 1.2.5(d) in order to provide Tenant sufficient time to provide notice pursuant to Section 1.2.5(d).
(c) When determining the Fair Market Basic Rent, the Arbitrators shall use Comparable Buildings, as well as the following factors:
1. The financial condition of Tenant and the tenant in the comparable premises;
2. The location, quality and age of the Building and the Comparable Building(s);
3. The extent and quality of leasehold improvements (existing or to be provided) in the Premises and the comparable premises;
4. Rent abatements, if any, given Tenant and the tenant in the comparable premises;
5. The location of the Premises within the Building and the location of the comparable premises within the Comparable Building(s);
6. The length of Tenant’s renewal term and the renewal term of the tenant in the comparable premises;
7. The nature and extent of services Landlord provides to Tenant and those the owner of the comparable premises provides;
8
8. Distinctions between “gross” and “net” leases;
9. Expense stops, if any, given Tenant and the tenant in the comparable premises;
10. Other Lease renewal concessions given to Tenant and the tenant in the comparable premises;
11. The square footage of the Premises;
12. Whether Landlord will lose rent due to vacancy of the Premises pending marketing and tenant improvement construction time.
13. Any other pertinent factors the Arbitrators deem reasonably necessary.
1.2.7 Refurbishment Allowance
(a) Provided that this Lease shall be in full force and effect and no Event of Default by Tenant exists which has not been remedied within the cure period in this Lease, Landlord shall pay to Tenant the following refurbishment allowances, at the following times:
(i) No later than the last day of Lease Year five, $3.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises (the “Year Five Allowance”);
(ii) No later than the last day of Lease Year ten, $7.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises (the “Year Ten Allowance”) (the Year Ten Allowance, together with the Year Five Allowance, collectively the “Initial Term Allowances”).
The Initial Term Allowances shall be calculated with reference only to the area of the Premises originally leased by the Tenant as of the Commencement Date (approximately 88,534 rentable square feet) less any space for which Tenant has elected an Accelerated Expiration Date as provided in Section 19.4. Tenant shall be entitled to retain any portion of the Initial Term Allowances not utilized in the refurbishment of the Premises.
(b) In addition to the Initial Term Allowances provided in paragraph (a) above, no later than the first day of each Renewal Term Landlord shall pay to Tenant a refurbishment allowance (each such allowance, an “Extension Allowance”) in an amount equal to $4.00 per rentable square foot of the Premises. Tenant shall be entitled to retain any portion of any Extension Allowance not utilized in the refurbishment of the Premises.
ARTICLE 2.
RENTAL AND OTHER PAYMENTS
2.1 Basic Rent.
9
Tenant will pay Basic Rent in monthly installments to Landlord, in advance, without offset or deduction (except as specifically provided for in this Lease), commencing on the Rent Commencement Date and continuing on the first day of each and every calendar month after the Rent Commencement Date during the Term. Tenant will make all Basic Rent payments to Property Manager at the address specified in the Basic Terms or at such other place or in such other manner as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing. Tenant will make all Basic Rent payments without Landlord’s previous demand, invoice or notice for payment. Landlord and Tenant will prorate, on a per diem basis, Basic Rent for any partial month within the Term.
Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, for the period commencing on the Rent Commencement Date up to but not including the first (1st) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date (the “Reduced Rent Period”), Tenant shall pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent only for the second (2nd) floor or third (3rd) floor of the Premises, whichever Tenant shall first elect to occupy, consisting of approximately 44,267 rentable square feet; provided, however, if the Substantial Completion Date occurs before the Delivery Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all Additional Rent and fifty percent (50%) of Basic Rent for the second (2nd) or third (3rd) floor of the Premises, whichever Tenant shall first elect to occupy, consisting of approximately 44,267 rentable square feet, for the period commencing on the Substantial Completion Date and ending on the Delivery Date (the “Pre-Delivery Date Rent”). In this event, from and after the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant will pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent in accordance with Section 2.1 as if Landlord achieved Substantial Completion and tendered possession of the Premises to Tenant on the Delivery Date; that is, notwithstanding that the Substantial Completion Date shall have occurred prior to the Delivery Date and that Tenant shall have paid Pre-Delivery Date Rent to Landlord, Tenant shall have no liability whatsoever to pay Basic Rent or Additional Rent for the period from the Delivery Date to the Rent Commencement Date.
Tenant shall be entitled to occupy portions (in 10,000 rentable square foot increments, as reasonably verified by Landlord) of or the entire remainder (i.e., the second (2nd) or third (3rd) floor, as the case may be) of the Premises during the Reduced Rent Period, provided, however, if Tenant occupies any portion of the third (3rd) floor of the Premises during the Reduced Rent Period for the purpose of conducting business, then commencing as of Tenant’s occupancy of any such portion, Tenant shall pay only Additional Rent (including a pro rata portion of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses) allocable to such portion. From and after the first (1st) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent for the entire Premises.
2.2 Additional Rent.
Article 3 of this Lease requires Tenant to pay certain Additional Rent pursuant to estimates Landlord delivers to Tenant. Tenant will make all payments of estimated Additional Rent in accordance with Sections 3.3 and 3.4 without deduction or offset and without Landlord’s previous demand, invoice or notice for payment. Tenant will pay all other Additional Rent described in this Lease that is not estimated under Sections 3.3 and 3.4 within 30 days after receiving Landlord’s invoice for such Additional Rent. Tenant will make all Additional Rent payments to the same location and, except as described in the previous sentence, in the same manner as Tenant’s Basic Rent payments. The provisions of this Section 2.2 are subject to the terms and conditions of the second (2nd) paragraph of Section 2.1 above.
2.3 Delinquent Rental Payments.
10
If Tenant does not pay any installment of Basic Rent or any Additional Rent within three (3) business days after the payment is due, Tenant will pay Landlord an additional amount equal to interest on the delinquent payment calculated at the Maximum Rate from the date on which the payment is due through the date the payment is made; Landlord’s right to such compensation for the delinquency is in addition to all of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Lease, at law or in equity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord agrees with respect to the first two (2) defaults by Tenant in the payment of Basic Rent or Additional Rent hereunder in any twelve (12) month period, Landlord shall, prior to assessing any interest upon the same provide Tenant with five (5) business days’ prior written notice and opportunity to cure the same. In the event of a third (3rd) payment default of Basic Rent or Additional Rent in any twelve (12) month period, any further delinquent payment shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate from the date due without the requirement of any additional notice or opportunity to cure.
Tenant’s covenant and obligation to pay Rent is independent from any of Landlord’s covenants, obligations, warranties or representations in this Lease, and except as otherwise provided for in this Lease, Tenant will pay Rent without any right of offset or deduction.
2.4 Tax on Rent.
Tenant shall pay, also as Additional Rent, any sales tax or excise tax on rents (excluding sales tax on any component of Operating Expenses for which sales tax is not due according to the State’s Department of Revenue), gross receipts or other tax (however described [excluding any inheritance, estate, succession, transfer, gift taxes, or income taxes imposed upon Landlord]), which is levied or assessed by the United States of America or the State or any political subdivision thereof, against Landlord in respect to the Basic Rent, Additional Rent, or other charges reserved under this Lease or as a result of Landlord’s receipt of such rents or other charges accruing under this Lease. Landlord shall take all reasonable administrative measures (including itemization of any component of Operating Expenses which may be exempt) under applicable laws or regulations which may be required to be observed or performed in order to avoid incurring sales tax on any component of Operating Expenses.
ARTICLE 3.
OPERATING EXPENSES
3.1 Payment of Operating Expenses
Tenant will pay, as Additional Rent and in the manner this Article 3 describes, Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses due and payable during any calendar year of the Term. Landlord will prorate Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses due and payable during the calendar year in which the Lease commences or terminates as of the Rent Commencement Date or termination date, as applicable, on a per diem basis based on the number of days of the Term within such calendar year. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that in no event will the total Operating Expenses collected by Landlord from all tenants of the Building exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the actual Operating Expenses of the Building. Landlord represents and warrants that Operating Expenses for the Building shall be reasonable, in accordance with standard GAAP policies, directly related to the Building, and comparable to those of other Class “A” buildings in the South Florida office space
11
market. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable and diligent efforts to minimize Operating Expenses, and shall maintain accounting books and records in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which Landlord shall cause to be audited by a licensed accounting firm on an annual basis.
3.2 Estimation of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses
Landlord will deliver to Tenant a written estimate of the following for each calendar year of the Term: (a) Operating Expenses, (b) Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses Percentage, and (c) the annual and monthly Additional Rent attributable to Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses.
3.3 Payment of Estimated Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses
Tenant will pay the amount Landlord estimates as Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses under Section 3.2 for each calendar year of the Term in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each month during such calendar year. If Landlord has not delivered the estimates to Tenant by the first day of January of the applicable calendar year, Tenant will continue paying Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses based on Landlord’s estimates for the previous calendar year. When Tenant receives Landlord’s estimates for the current calendar year, Tenant will pay the estimated amount (less amounts Tenant paid to Landlord in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence) in equal monthly installments over the balance of such calendar year, with the number of installments being equal to the number of full calendar months remaining in such calendar year.
3.4 Re-estimation of Operating Expenses
Landlord may re-estimate Operating Expenses from time to time during the Term, but no more frequently than one (1) time in any twelve (12) month period. In such event, Landlord will re-estimate the monthly Additional Rent attributable to Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses to an amount sufficient for Tenant to pay the re-estimated amount over the balance of the calendar year. Landlord will notify Tenant of the re-estimate, and Tenant will pay the re-estimated amount in the manner provided in the last sentence of Section 3.3.
3.5 Confirmation of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses
Within ninety (90) days after the end of each calendar year within the Term, Landlord will determine the actual amount of Operating Expenses and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the previous calendar year and deliver to Tenant a line-itemized written statement in a form reasonably acceptable to Tenant of the items included therein (based on audited financial books and records for the Building) (the “Reconciliation Statement”). If Tenant paid less than the actual amount of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses specified in the statement, Tenant will pay the difference to Landlord as Additional Rent in the manner Section 2.2 describes. If Tenant paid more than the actual amount of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses specified in the statement, Landlord, at Landlord’s option, will either (a) refund the excess amount to Tenant, which refund shall be included with such Reconciliation Statement, or (b) credit the excess amount against Tenant’s next due monthly installment or installments of estimated Additional Rent, provided, however, if such Reconciliation Statement shall be rendered after the expiration of the Lease, Landlord shall pay such excess to Tenant simultaneously with the rendering of such Reconciliation Statement. If Landlord is
12
delayed in delivering such statement to Tenant, such delay does not constitute Landlord’s waiver of Landlord’s rights under this section.
3.6 Tenant’s Inspection and Audit Rights
If Tenant desires to audit Landlord’s determination of the actual amount of Operating Expenses or Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for any calendar year and Tenant delivers to Landlord written notice of Tenant’s decision to audit (the “Audit Notice”) within 180 days after Landlord’s delivery of the Reconciliation Statement, then Tenant (but not any subtenant), at its sole cost and expense, upon prior written notice and during regular business hours at a time and place reasonably acceptable to Landlord (which may be the location where Landlord or Property Manager maintains copies of the applicable records, provided that such location is in Miami-Dade County or Broward County, Florida), may cause a certified public accountant to audit Landlord’s records relating to Operating Expenses. Tenant’s election to audit Landlord’s determination of Operating Expenses or Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses is deemed withdrawn unless Tenant completes and delivers the audit to Landlord within 60 days after the date Tenant delivers its Audit Notice to Landlord under this section. If the audit shows that the amount Landlord charged Tenant for Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses was greater than the amount this Article 3 obligates Tenant to pay, then, unless Landlord reasonably contests the audit, Landlord will refund the excess amount to Tenant, together with interest on the excess amount at the Maximum Rate (computed from the date Tenant delivers its dispute Audit Notice to Landlord) within 10 days after Landlord receives a copy of the audit report. If the audit shows that the amount Landlord charged Tenant for Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses was less than the amount this Article 3 obligates Tenant to pay, Tenant will pay the Landlord, as Additional Rent, the difference between the amount Tenant paid and the amount determined in the audit within ten (10) days after Tenant receives a copy of the audit report. Pending resolution of any audit under this section, Tenant will continue to pay to Landlord the estimated amounts of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses in accordance with Sections 3.3 and 3.4. Tenant must keep all information it obtains in any audit strictly confidential and may only use such information for the limited purpose this section describes and for Tenant’s own account.
If any Tenant audit of Operating Expenses reveals that Landlord charged Tenant for greater than one hundred four percent (104%) of the actual amount of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, Landlord shall pay the reasonable costs of Tenant’s audit. If Tenant’s audit for any year reveals that Landlord charged more than one hundred four percent (104%) of the actual amount of any specific line item of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, Tenant may audit the immediately preceding three (3) years’ books and records relating to such specific line-itemized component of Operating Expenses, with any overpayments paid to Tenant and underpayments paid to Landlord in the manner set forth above. If Tenant’s audit for any year reveals that Landlord charged more than one hundred seven percent (107%) of the actual total amount of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, Tenant may audit the immediately preceding three (3) years’ books and records relating to all Operating Expenses, with any overpayments paid to Tenant and underpayments paid to Landlord in the manner set forth above.
3.7 Personal Property Taxes
Tenant, prior to delinquency, will pay all taxes charged against Tenant’s trade fixtures and other personal property. Tenant will use all reasonable efforts to have such trade fixtures and other personal property taxed separately from the Property. If any of Tenant’s trade fixtures and other
13
personal property are taxed with the Property, Tenant will pay the taxes attributable to Tenant’s trade fixtures and other personal property to Landlord as Additional Rent.
3.8 Landlord’s Right to Contest Property Taxes
Landlord is not obligated to but may contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any Property Taxes. Landlord’s contest will be at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, except that if Property Taxes are reduced (or if a proposed increase is avoided or reduced) because of Landlord’s contest, Landlord may include in its computation of Property Taxes the costs and expenses Landlord incurred in connection with the contest, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees, up to the amount of any Property Tax reduction Landlord realized from the contest or any Property Tax increase avoided or reduced in connection with the contest, as the case may be. Tenant may not contest Property Taxes.
3.9 Operating Expenses; Additional Provisions Regarding Operating Expenses
(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 3 to the contrary, the amount of Controllable Operating Expenses (as hereinafter defined) included within the calculation of Operating Expenses for the purpose of calculating Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for any given calendar year shall not exceed one hundred seven percent (107%) of the Controllable Operating Expenses Cap for the immediately preceding calendar year. As used herein, the term “Controllable Operating Expenses Cap” shall mean, for the first full calendar year of the Lease, the actual Controllable Operating Expenses for such calendar year, and for each subsequent calendar year, the lesser of (i) the actual Controllable Operating Expenses for such calendar year or (ii) one hundred seven percent (107%) of the Controllable Operating Expenses Cap for the preceding calendar year. As used herein, the term “Controllable Operating Expenses” shall mean, all Operating Expenses other than costs and expenses for Property Taxes (including, but not limited to, any office park assessments or association fees), utilities (including, but not limited to electricity, fuel, water and sewer), refuse and/or trash removal (to the extent such removal service is limited to a mandated or required municipal service provider), insurance, and capital costs permitted to be included in Operating Expenses as provided in the definition of Operating Expenses as provided in this Lease.
(b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 3 to the contrary, Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the first Lease Year shall not exceed $6.81 per rentable square foot of the Premises; provided, however, if the Property is reassessed for Property Tax purposes and such reassessment materially increases the amount of Property Taxes payable with respect to the Property for the first Lease Year, then notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall only guaranty that Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, not including Property Taxes, shall not exceed $5.81 per rentable square foot of the Premises for the first Lease Year, and in the event of such a reassessment, Tenant shall pay the full amount of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses relating to Property Taxes. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts not to have the Property reassessed.
(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in Article 3 to the contrary, if Landlord shall convey title to the Property more than five (5) times during the initial term, then to the extent such fifth (5th) conveyance of the Project shall cause the Property Tax assessment of the value of Property to be increased, Tenant’s liability for Property Taxes shall thereafter be calculated using the assessed value of the Property stated in the Property Tax assessment for the year in which the sixth
14
(6th) conveyance of the Property occurs. Tenant shall continue to be liable for any increase in the millage rate and rate of taxes levied. Further this provision shall not apply for any conveyance made during any Renewal Term.
3.10 Adjustment for Variable Operating Expenses
Notwithstanding any contrary language in this Article 3, if ninety-five percent (95%) or more of the rentable area of the Building is not occupied at all times during any calendar year pursuant to leases under which the terms have commenced for such calendar year, Landlord will reasonably and equitably adjust its computation of Operating Expenses for that calendar year to obligate Tenant to pay Variable Operating Expenses in an amount equal to the amount the Tenant would have paid for such Variable Operating Expenses had 95% of the rentable area of the Building been occupied at all times during such calendar year pursuant to leases under which the terms have commenced for such calendar year. Landlord will also equitably adjust Operating Expenses to account for any Operating Expense any tenant of the Building pays directly to a service provider. For purposes of this Section 3.10, the term “Variable Operating Expenses” shall mean all expenses Landlord incurs relating to the Property in connection with janitorial services, trash and rubbish removal, electricity, gas (if applicable), water, and sewer (except to the extent that such expenses relate to the Common Area, in which case no equitable adjustment will be made).
ARTICLE 4.

Tenant will not use the Premises for any purpose other than general office purposes, which include, but are not limited to, the use of conference and computer facilities, and employee cafeteria (subject to the terms described in the immediately following paragraph), employee kitchens (for the warming, and/or microwave cooking, of food) and break rooms and related facilities, and other legally permitted uses consistent with the characteristics of a first-class office building in Broward County, Florida (individually, a “Permitted Use,” and collectively, the “Permitted Uses”). Tenant will not use the Property or knowingly permit the Premises to be used in violation of any Laws or in any manner that would (a) violate any certificate of occupancy affecting the Property; (b) make void or voidable any insurance now or after the Effective Date in force with respect to the Property; (c) cause injury or damage to the Property or to the person or property of any other tenant on the Property; (d) cause substantial diminution in the value or usefulness of all or any part of the Property (reasonable wear and tear excepted); or (e) constitute a public or private nuisance or waste. Tenant will obtain and maintain, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, all permits and approvals required under the Laws solely on account of Tenant’s particular use of the Premises.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Tenant occupies more than 100,000 rentable square feet in the Building, and Tenant so elects by providing written notice to Landlord, Tenant may operate a cafeteria within the Premises for Tenant’s employees, subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) Tenant shall obtain permits for and construct the cafeteria, including any modifications required to be made to the Premises to accommodate a cafeteria, all at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and in compliance with all Laws;
15
(b) Tenant shall pay any increase in the premium of any insurance policy Landlord carries covering the Premises or the Property caused by Tenant’s operation of a cafeteria within the Premises;
(c) In addition to the conditions listed in subparagraphs (a) and (b) above, Tenant’s construction of a cafeteria within the Premises shall be deemed an Alteration subject to the terms and conditions of Article 8; provided, however, notwithstanding anything in Article 8 to the contrary, Tenant must obtain Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of all deliveries required to be made to Landlord pursuant to Section 8.1.
4.2 Acceptance of Premises
Except for the Warranty Terms, and as expressly otherwise set forth in this Lease, Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent, contractor or employee of Landlord has made any representation or warranty of any kind with respect to the Premises, the Building or the Property, specifically including, but not limited to, any representation or warranty of suitability or fitness of the Premises, Building or the Property for any particular purpose, except as set forth in Section 4.4. Subject to Landlord’s obligations to construct and install the Landlord’s Improvements and Tenant’s Improvements and subject to the Warranty Terms and except for latent defects, as provided in the Warranty Terms, Tenant accepts the Premises, the Building and the Property in an “AS IS — WHERE IS” condition.
4.3 Increased Insurance
Tenant will not do on the Property or permit to be done on the Premises anything that will (a) increase the premium of any insurance policy Landlord carries covering the Premises or the Property; (b) cause a cancellation of or be in conflict with any such insurance policy; (c) result in any insurance company’s refusal to issue or continue any such insurance in amounts satisfactory to Landlord; or (d) subject Landlord to any liability or responsibility for injury to any person or property by reason of Tenant’s operations in the Premises or use of the Property. Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, will comply with all reasonable rules, orders, regulations and requirements of insurers and of the American Insurance Association or any other organization performing a similar function. Tenant will reimburse Landlord, as Additional Rent, for any additional premium charges for such policy or policies resulting from Tenant’s failure to comply with the provisions of this section. Landlord hereby acknowledges that Tenant’s use of the Premises for the purposes contemplated hereby shall not violate the prohibitions herein expressed or result in any additional premium charges to Landlord.
4.4 Laws/Building Rules
This Lease is subject and subordinate to all Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby represents and warrants that (i) Landlord shall have obtained, as of the Commencement Date, all permits and authorizations from all appropriate governmental authorities required with respect to the operation of the Building, and (ii) applicable Laws, including without limitation, all applicable zoning regulations, permit the Premises to be used for the Permitted Uses. A copy of the current Building Rules is attached to this Lease as EXHIBIT “C.” Landlord shall enforce the Building Rules, as same may be amended from time to time, equitably and uniformly.

the Building Rules from time to time in Landlord’s reasonable discretion provided that any such amendment will be (i) reasonable and consistent with the rules and regulations imposed in Comparable Buildings, (ii) not materially more burdensome than the initial Building Rules, and (iii) subject to the terms of this Lease.
4.5 Common Area
Landlord grants Tenant the non-exclusive right, together with all other occupants of the Building and their agents, employees and invitees, to use the Common Area during the Term, subject to all Laws. Landlord, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, may make changes to the Common Area. Landlord’s rights regarding the Common Area include, but are not limited to, the right to (a) restrain unauthorized persons from using the Common Area; (b) place permanent or temporary kiosks, displays, carts or stands in the Common Area and lease the same to tenants; (c) temporarily close any portion of the Common Area (i) for repairs, improvements or Alterations, (ii) to discourage unauthorized use, (iii) to prevent dedication or prescriptive rights, or (iv) for any other reason Landlord deems necessary in Landlord’s reasonable judgment; (d) change the shape and size of the Common Area; (e) add, eliminate or change the location of any improvements located in the Common Area and construct buildings or other structures in the Common Area; and (f) subject to the terms of Section 4.4, impose and revise Building Rules concerning use of the Common Area, including, but not limited to, any parking facilities comprising a portion of the Common Area.

ARTICLE 8.
CHANGES AND ALTERATIONS
8.1 Landlord Approval
Tenant will not make any Structural Alterations to the Premises or any Alterations to the Common Area. Tenant shall have the right, without Landlord’s prior consent, to make Alterations other than Structural Alterations, provided that the cost of any single Alteration does not exceed $100,000.00. Other than as specifically described in the preceding sentence, Tenant will not make
28
any other Alterations without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed subject to Landlord’s reasonable conditions. Along with any request for Landlord’s consent or prior to commencing any Alterations for which Tenant does not require Landlord’s consent, Tenant will deliver to Landlord plans and specifications for the Alterations and names and addresses of all prospective contractors for the Alterations. If Landlord approves the proposed Alterations or if consent is not needed, Tenant, before commencing the Alterations or delivering (or accepting delivery of) any materials to be used in connection with the Alterations, will deliver to Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable approval copies of all contracts, proof of insurance required by Section 8.2, copies of any contractor safety programs, copies of all necessary permits and licenses and such other information relating to the Alterations as Landlord reasonably requests.

If Landlord consents to any Structural Alterations by Tenant, and Landlord requires that such Structural Alterations be removed from the Premises at Tenant’s cost at the end of the Term, Landlord must so notify Tenant at the time Landlord consents to such Structural Alterations. Tenant shall not be required to remove the Tenant Improvements at the expiration or termination of the Term. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any Supplemental AC Systems installed by Tenant shall remain the personal property of Tenant and may be removed from or may remain in the Premises at any time during the Term and after the expiration of the Term, at Tenant’s sole option and at Tenant’s sole expense; provided, however, Tenant shall repair and restore any damage caused to the Premises or the Building as a result of such removal.

Prior to commencing the Alterations, Tenant will deliver the following to Landlord in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord: evidence that Tenant and each of Tenant’s contractors have in force liability insurance insuring against construction related risks, in at least the form, amounts and coverages required of Tenant under Article 10 and copies of all applicable contracts and of all necessary permits and licenses. The insurance liability policies described above must name Landlord, Landlord’s lender (if any) and Property Manager as additional insureds.
8.3 Construction Obligations and Ownership
Landlord may inspect construction of the Alterations provided that Landlord’s inspection does not interfere with construction of such Alterations. Immediately after completing the Alterations, Tenant will furnish Landlord with contractor affidavits and full and final lien waivers. Tenant will remove any Alterations Tenant constructs in violation of this Article 8 within a
29
reasonable period of time after Landlord’s written request and in any event prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, all Alterations Tenant makes or installs (including all telephone, computer and other wiring and cabling located within the walls of and outside the Premises, but excluding Tenant’s movable trade fixtures, furniture and equipment) become the property of Landlord upon installation and, unless Landlord requires Tenant to remove any Structural Alterations, Tenant will surrender the Alterations to Landlord upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease at no cost to Landlord.
8.4 Liens
Tenant will keep the Property free from any mechanics’, materialmens’, designers’ or other liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or for Tenant or any person or entity claiming by, through or under Tenant. If any such liens are filed and Tenant, within 30 days after such filing, does not release the same of record or provide Landlord with a bond or other surety satisfactory to Landlord protecting Landlord and the Property against such liens, Landlord may after written notice to Tenant, without waiving its rights and remedies based upon such breach by Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any obligation under this Lease, cause such liens to be released by any means Landlord deems proper, including, but not limited to, paying the claim giving rise to the lien or posting security to cause the discharge of the lien. In such event, Tenant will reimburse Landlord, as Additional Rent, for all amounts Landlord pays (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs).
EXCEPT FOR WORK UNDERTAKEN BY OR ON BEHALF OF LANDLORD, NOTHING IN THIS LEASE SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE, OR CONSTRUED IN ANY WAY AS CONSTITUTING, THE CONSENT OR REQUEST OF LANDLORD, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, BY INFERENCE OR OTHERWISE, TO ANY PERSON, FIRM OR CORPORATION FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY LABOR OR THE FURNISHING OF ANY MATERIALS FOR ANY CONSTRUCTION, REBUILDING, ALTERATION OR REPAIR OF OR TO THE PREMISES OR ANY PART THEREOF, NOR AS GIVING TENANT ANY RIGHT, POWER OR AUTHORITY TO CONTRACT FOR OR PERMIT THE RENDERING OF ANY SERVICES OR THE FURNISHING OF ANY MATERIALS WHICH MIGHT IN ANY WAY GIVE RISE TO THE RIGHT TO FILE ANY LIEN AGAINST THE BUILDING OR LANDLORD’S INTEREST IN THE PREMISES.

ARTICLE 9.
RIGHTS RESERVED BY LANDLORD
9.1 Landlord’s Entry
Landlord and its authorized representatives may at all reasonable times and upon at least twenty-four (24) hour advance telephone notice to Tenant enter the Premises to: (a) inspect the Premises; (b) show the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees and (only during the last nine (9) months of the Lease Term) tenants; (c) post notices of non-responsibility or other protective notices available under the Laws; or (d) exercise and perform Landlord’s rights and obligations under this Lease. Tenant will also permit Landlord (or its designees) to erect, install, use, maintain, replace and repair pipes, cables, conduits, plumbing and vents, and telephone, electric and other wires or other items, in, to and through the Premises if Landlord reasonably determines that such activities are necessary or appropriate for properly operating and maintaining the Building. In addition, Tenant may, from time to time, designate certain areas within the Premises into which Landlord may not enter unless accompanied by a designated representative of Tenant. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event of an emergency, Landlord may enter any portion of the Premises at any time, with or without notice to Tenant, and whether or not accompanied by a representative of Tenant, provided, however, that Landlord shall immediately telephonically notify Tenant’s after hours representative, whose name and 24 hour telephone number Tenant shall have furnished to Landlord, in writing, from time to time. Landlord’s entry into the Premises is not to be construed as a forcible or unlawful entry into, or detainer of, the Premises or as an eviction of Tenant from all or any part of the Premises. In exercising its right of entry, Landlord shall use commercially diligent efforts: (i) to minimize any interference with the conduct of Tenant’s business, (ii) to prevent breaches of security, and (iii) to avoid damage to the Premises or the equipment, fixtures or personal property of Tenant. Landlord agrees to reimburse, within 30 days of Tenant’s request, Tenant for damage to same.
If Tenant’s business operations within the Premises are rendered inoperative as a result of Landlord’s entry into and upon any part of the Premises or portion thereof, as determined by Tenant in its reasonable discretion, so as to prevent Tenant from operating its business in the Premises, and such condition remains uncured three (3) Business Days after Tenant notifies Landlord in writing of such condition, Tenant will be entitled to a complete abatement of Basic Rent and Additional Rent during the period Tenant was prevented from operating its business operations in proportion to the portion of the Premises rendered inoperative. If Tenant’s business operations continue to be inoperative, as contemplated by the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.1, for a period of forty-five (45) days after the above-referenced written notice, Tenant shall have the right at any time thereafter to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord delivered to Landlord at any time prior to the date as of which Tenant’s business operations are no longer inoperative.
9.2 Control of Property
31
Landlord reserves all rights respecting the Property and Premises not specifically granted to Tenant or otherwise prohibited under this Lease, including, without limitation, the right to: (a) change the name of the Building (subject to the terms and conditions of Section 4.6), provided that in no event shall the Building be named for any person not a tenant of the Building; (b) designate and approve all types of signs, window coverings, internal lighting and other aspects of the Premises and its contents that may be visible from the exterior of the Premises (subject to the terms and conditions of Section 4.6); (c) grant any party the exclusive right to conduct any business or render any service in the Building, provided such exclusive right to conduct any business or render any service in the Building does not prohibit Tenant from any permitted use for which Tenant is then using the Premises and provided further that Landlord shall not lease any space in the Building to any entity whose primary business to be conducted in their premises is the operation of cruise ships (including without limitation support services for such operation), including without limitation Carnival, Princess, NCL, and Disney Cruises; (d) prohibit Tenant from installing vending or dispensing machines of any kind in or about the Premises other than those Tenant installs in the Premises solely for use by Tenant’s employees; (e) close the Building after Business Hours, except that Tenant and its employees and invitees may access the Premises after Business Hours on a 24 hour per day, 7 day per week basis, in accordance with such rules and regulations as Landlord may prescribe from time to time for security purposes which shall be uniformly and equitably enforced; (f) install, operate and maintain security systems that monitor, by closed circuit television or otherwise, all persons entering or leaving the Building; (g) install and maintain pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, and structural elements in the Premises that serve other parts or other tenants of the Building, so long as such pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, and structural elements are not visible from the interior of the Premises (i.e., are above the ceiling or within walls or closets) and do not materially interfere with Tenant’s enjoyment and use of the Premises; and (h) retain and receive master keys or pass keys to the Premises and all doors in the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or the provision of any security-related services by Landlord, Landlord is not responsible for the security of persons or property on the Property and Landlord is not and will not be liable in any way whatsoever for any breach of security except to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents or employees, but then subject to the mutual release and waiver of subrogation provisions of this Lease.
9.3 Lock Box Agent/Rent Collection Agent
Landlord, from time to time, may designate a lock box collection agent or other person to collect Rent. In such event, Tenant’s payment of Rent to the lock box collection agent or other person is deemed to have been made (a) as of the date the lock box collection agent or other person receives Tenant’s payment (if the payment is not dishonored for any reason); or (b) if Tenant’s payment is dishonored for any reason, the date Landlord or Landlord’s agent collects the payment. Neither Tenant’s payment of any amount of Rent to the lock box collection agent or other person nor Landlord’s or Landlord’s agent’s collection of such amount, if the payment is dishonored, constitutes Landlord’s waiver of any Event of Default by Tenant in the performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or Landlord’s waiver of any of Landlord’s rights or remedies under this Lease. If Tenant pays any amount to the lock box collection agent or other person other than the actual amount due Landlord, then Landlord’s or Landlord’s agent’s receipt or collection of such amount does not constitute an accord and satisfaction, Landlord is not prejudiced in collecting the proper amount due Landlord, and Landlord may retain the proceeds of any such payment, whether restrictively endorsed or otherwise, and apply the same toward amounts due and payable by Tenant under this Lease.

ARTICLE 10.

10.1.3 Other Insurance
Such other insurance as may be required by any Laws from time to time or may reasonably be required by Landlord from time to time. If insurance obligations generally required of tenants in similar space in similar office buildings in the area in which the Premises is located increase or otherwise change, Landlord may likewise increase or otherwise change Tenant’s insurance obligations under this Lease.
10.1.4 Miscellaneous Insurance Provisions
All of Tenant’s insurance will be written by companies rated at least “Best A-VII” or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

Tenant’s trade fixtures, other personal property and all other property in Tenant’s care, custody or control, are located at the Property at Tenant’s sole risk. Landlord is not liable for any damage to such property or for any theft, misappropriation or loss of such property. Tenant is solely responsible for providing such insurance as may be required to protect Tenant, its employees and invitees against any injury, loss, or damage to persons or property occurring in the Premises or at the Property, including, without limitation, any loss of business or profits from any casualty or other occurrence at the Property.
10.1.6 No Limitation
Landlord’s establishment of minimum insurance requirements is not a representation by Landlord that such limits are sufficient and does not limit Tenant’s liability under this Lease in any manner.
10.2 Landlord’s Insurance Obligations
Landlord will (except for the optional coverages and endorsements Section 10.2.1 describes) at all times during the Term maintain the insurance this Section 10.2 describes.

Landlord, at its option, may obtain such additional coverages or endorsements as Landlord deems appropriate or necessary, subject to a commercial reasonableness standard, including, without limitation, insurance covering foundation, grading, excavation and debris removal costs; business income and rents insurance; earthquake insurance; flood insurance; and other coverages. Landlord may maintain such insurance in whole or in part under blanket policies, provided such insurance shall be made specifically applicable to the Building on a “per location” basis.

34
10.2.2 Liability Insurance.
Commercial general liability insurance against claims for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage occurring at the Property in an amount appropriate for a Class “A” office building in the South Florida office space market. Such liability insurance will protect Landlord and, at Landlord’s option, Landlord’s lender and some or all of the Landlord Parties, and Tenant shall be named as an additional insured on such policy; provided, however, this insurance does not replace or supplement the liability insurance this Lease obligates Tenant to carry. Such insurance must include specific coverage provisions or endorsements (a) for broad form contractual liability insurance insuring Landlord’s obligations under this Lease; (b) naming Tenant as additional insureds; (c) waiving the insurer’s subrogation rights against all Tenant Parties; (d) providing Tenant with at least 30 days prior notice of modification, cancellation, non-renewal or expiration; and (e) expressly stating that Landlord’s insurance will be provided on a primary and non-contributory basis.
10.2.3 Landlord’s Waiver and Release of Claims and Subrogation
To the extent not expressly prohibited by the Laws, Landlord, on behalf of Landlord and its insurers, waives, releases and discharges Tenant from all claims or demands whatsoever arising out of damage to or destruction of the Property, or loss of use of the Property, occasioned by fire or other casualty, regardless of whether any such claim or demand results from the negligence or fault of Tenant, or otherwise, and Landlord will look only to Landlord’s insurance coverage (regardless of whether Landlord maintains or is required to maintain any such coverage) in the event of any such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant will continue paying Rent without any right of abatement, to the extent Landlord does not receive rent interruption insurance proceeds, if Tenant’s negligence or fault causes or contributes to any damage to the Premises or the Property. Landlord’s policy or policies of property insurance will permit releases of liability and will provide for waiver of subrogation as provided in this section. All of Landlord’s insurance will be written by companies rated at least “Best A-VII” or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Tenant.
10.3 Tenant’s Indemnification of Landlord; Landlord’s Indemnification of Tenant
(a) In addition to Tenant’s other indemnification obligations in this Lease but subject to Landlord’s agreements in Section 10.2, Tenant, to the fullest extent allowable under the Laws, will release, indemnify, protect, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold harmless the Landlord Parties from and against all Claims arising from (a) any breach or default by Tenant in the performance of any of Tenant’s covenants or agreements in this Lease, (b) any act, omission, negligence or misconduct of Tenant, (c) any accident, injury, occurrence or damage in, about or to the Property, and (d) to the extent caused in whole or in part by Tenant, any accident, injury, occurrence or damage in, about or to the Property.
(b) In addition to Landlord’s other indemnification obligations in this Lease but subject to Tenant’s agreements in Section 10.1, Landlord, to the fullest extent allowable under the Laws, will release, indemnify, protect, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Tenant) and hold harmless the Tenant Parties from and against all Claims arising from (a) any breach or default by Landlord in the performance of any of Landlord’s covenants or agreements in this Lease, (b) any act, omission, negligence or misconduct of Landlord, (c) any accident, injury, occurrence or damage in, about or to
35
the Property (exclusive of the Premises), and (d) to the extent caused in whole or in part by Landlord, any accident, injury, occurrence or damage in, about or to the Property.
10.4 Tenant’s Waiver
In addition to the other waivers of Tenant described in this Lease and to the extent not expressly prohibited by the Laws or otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Landlord and the other Landlord Parties are not liable for, and Tenant waives, any and all Claims against Landlord and the other Landlord Parties for any damage to Tenant’s trade fixtures, other personal property or business, and any loss of use or business interruption, resulting directly or indirectly from (a) any existing or future condition, defect, matter or thing in the Premises or on the Property, (b) any equipment or appurtenance becoming out of repair, (c) any occurrence, act or omission of any Landlord Party, any other tenant or occupant of the Building or any other person. This section applies especially, but not exclusively, to damage caused by the flooding of basements or other subsurface areas and by refrigerators, sprinkling devices, air conditioning apparatus, water, snow, frost, steam, excessive heat or cold, falling plaster, broken glass, sewage, gas, odors, noise or the bursting or leaking of pipes or plumbing fixtures. The waiver this section describes applies regardless whether any such damage results from an act of God, an act or omission of other tenants or occupants of the Property or an act or omission of any other person.
10.5 Tenant’s Failure to Insure
Notwithstanding any contrary language in this Lease and any notice and cure rights this Lease provides Tenant, if Tenant fails to provide Landlord with evidence of insurance as required under Section 10.1.4, then if Tenant shall fail to provide such evidence to Landlord within ten (10) business days following Landlord’s request for same, Landlord may assume that Tenant is not maintaining the insurance Section 10.1 requires Tenant to maintain and Landlord may (but is not obligated to, without further demand upon Tenant or notice to Tenant and without giving Tenant any further cure right or waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligation contained in this Lease), obtain such insurance for Landlord’s benefit. In such event, Tenant will pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, all costs and expenses Landlord incurs obtaining such insurance. Landlord’s exercise of its rights under this section does not relieve Tenant from any default under this Lease.
10.6 Option to Self Insure.
Notwithstanding anything in this Article 10 to the contrary, Tenant may self insure with respect to the insurance coverage as set forth in this Article 10 so long as Tenant demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord at the beginning of each Lease Year of such self insurance, that Tenant maintains a tangible net financial worth of at least $150,000,000.00, and provided that Tenant agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any loss, cost, damage, expense (including attorney’s fees and court costs), claim, cause of action or liability that would have been covered by the insurance policy replaced by the self-insurance, and provided further that such self insurance shall not affect any limitations of liability of Landlord described in this Lease (or the waiver of claims contained in Sections 10.1.5 and 10.4). If Tenant so elects to become a self insurer, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord notice in writing of the required coverages which it is self insuring, demonstrating such tangible net worth, setting forth the amount, limits and scope of the self insurance in respect to each type of coverage self insured (which will not be less than those required herein). Tenant, at Landlord’s request, shall provide to the holder of any Mortgage a certificate
36
satisfactory to the holder of such Mortgage, setting forth the self insured coverages, if any, and stating that all losses shall be payable to the holder of such Mortgage as its interests may appear.

Subject to the mutual waivers of subrogation included in this Article 10,Landlord shall be responsible for any and all damage to the Premises caused by Landlord’s negligence.
ARTICLE 11.
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
11.1 Tenantable Within 180 Days
Except as provided in Section 11.3, if fire or other casualty renders the whole or any material part of the Premises untenantable, Landlord shall determine (in Landlord’s reasonable discretion) its best estimate of the period of time which shall be required for the restoration of the Premises to as near their condition prior to the casualty (the “Restoration”). Landlord will provide to Tenant written notice of its estimate within 30 days after the date of the casualty. If Landlord shall reasonably determine that the Restoration can be completed in 180 days, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, provided: (i) Landlord shall restore the Premises as required pursuant to the terms of Section 11.4 and (ii) the Basic Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the period during which the Premises are untenantable shall be abated pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 11.6. If Landlord is unable to complete the Restoration in accordance with this Section 11.1 within the above-described 180 day period (subject to delays caused by Tenant Delays or Force Majeure), Tenant shall receive a credit against the next accruing payments of Basic Rent and Additional Rent due hereunder in an amount equal to two (2) days of Basic Rent and Additional Rent for each one (1) day after the end of the 180 day period until Landlord completes the Restoration. If Landlord has not achieved Substantial Completion of the Restoration within the above-described 180 day period, but only to the extent such delay is not caused by a Tenant Delay or Force Majeure, then Tenant may thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the Restoration, give written notice within ten (10) days after the above-described 180 day period has expired to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to terminate this Lease. If Substantial Completion of the Restoration has not occurred within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of such notice, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease at any time thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the Restoration. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s termination notice to be delivered pursuant to this Section 11.1, and if Tenant does not deliver such notice within the above-described 10 day period, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 11.1.
11.2 Not Tenantable Within 180 Days
If Landlord shall reasonably determine that the Restoration cannot be completed in 180 days, Tenant may elect to either (i) terminate this Lease by delivery of written notice to Landlord or (ii) accept Landlord’s estimate in such notice, and affirm this Lease, subject to the provisions of this Section 11.2. In the event Landlord is unable to complete the Restoration within the time period stated in Landlord’s notice to Tenant, but only to the extent such delay is not caused by a Tenant Delay or Force Majeure, then Tenant may thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the Restoration, give written notice within ten (10) days after the expiration of the time period stated in Landlord’s notice to Tenant, to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to terminate this Lease. If Substantial
37
Completion of the Restoration has not occurred within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of such notice, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease at any time thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the Restoration. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s delivery of its termination notice pursuant to this Section 11.2, and if Tenant has not delivered such notice within the above-described ten (10) day period, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 11.2.
11.3 Building Substantially Damaged
Notwithstanding the terms and conditions of Sections 11.1 and 11.2, if the Building is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty (regardless whether the Premises is affected) and either (a) fewer than 15 months remain in the Term (including any Renewal Term, if applicable), and Tenant shall not exercise any then unexercised Renewal Option within the applicable notice period described in Section 1.2.5, or (b) the damage reduces the value of the improvements on the Property by more than 50% (as Landlord reasonably determines value before and after the casualty), then, regardless whether Landlord determines that it can make the Building tenantable within 180 days after the date of the casualty, Landlord, at Landlord’s option, by notifying Tenant within 30 days after the casualty, may terminate this Lease effective on the date of Landlord’s notice. Landlord shall not have the right to terminate this Lease unless Landlord shall reasonably determine not to rebuild the Building and shall terminate all other leases affecting the Building. If Landlord terminates this Lease pursuant to this Section 11.3, Landlord covenants not to rebuild the Building within eighteen (18) months after the fire or other casualty event, and this covenant by Landlord shall survive the termination of this Lease; provided, however, this covenant not to rebuild within 18 months is personal to Landlord and its Affiliates and shall not run with the Land.
11.4 Insufficient Proceeds
Notwithstanding any contrary language in this Article 11, if this Article 11 obligates Landlord to repair damage to the Premises or Building caused by fire or other casualty, and Landlord’s insurance proceeds (excluding any deficiency caused by the amount of any policy deductible) are not sufficient to repair all of the damage (provided that such insufficiency is not due to Landlord’s failure to carry the insurance required under Section 10 above), or if Landlord’s lender does not allow Landlord to use sufficient proceeds to repair all of the damage, then Landlord, at Landlord’s option, by notifying Tenant within thirty (30) days after the casualty, may terminate this Lease effective on the date of Landlord’s notice, subject to the following conditions:
(a) Landlord’s termination right described in this Section 11.4 shall not apply if the above-described proceeds (or the amount of insurance proceeds that the Landlord’s lender allows Landlord to use for repairs) are insufficient in an amount less than $750,000.00;
(b) If Landlord elects not to rebuild and to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 11.4, Landlord shall terminate all other leases for space within the Building, and Landlord covenants not to rebuild the Building within eighteen (18) months after the fire or other casualty event, and this covenant by Landlord shall survive the termination of this Lease; provided, however, this covenant not to rebuild within 18 months is personal to Landlord and its Affiliates and shall not run with the Land; and
38
(c) Landlord’s rights under this Section 11.4 shall only apply to a fire or other casualty event for which Landlord reasonably determines that it cannot complete the Restoration within one hundred eighty (180) days after the fire or other casualty event.
11.5 Landlord’s Repair Obligations
If this Lease is not terminated under Sections 11.2 through 11.4 following a fire or other casualty, then Landlord will promptly commence, and diligently pursue completion of the Restoration (including, without limitation, the restoration of the Landlord Improvements and the Tenant Improvements), subject to delays caused by Tenant Delay or Force Majeure, and Basic Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the period during which the Premises are untenantable shall be abated pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 11.7 In no event is Landlord obligated to repair or restore any Alterations that are not required to be covered by Landlord’s insurance, any special equipment or improvements installed by Tenant, any personal property, or any other property of Tenant.
11.6 Rent Apportionment Upon Termination
If either Landlord or Tenant terminates this Lease under this Article 11, Landlord will apportion Basic Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses on a per diem basis and Tenant will pay the Basic Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses to (a) the date of the fire or other casualty if the event renders the Premises completely untenantable or (b) if the event does not render the Premises completely untenantable, the effective date of such termination (provided that Tenant’s obligation to pay Basic Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses shall be equitably apportioned pursuant to Section 11.7 below).
11.7 Abatement of Rent
In the event of a casualty in which less than 50% of the Premises are rendered unfit for the conduct of Tenant’s business operations, all Basic Rent and Additional Rent paid in advance shall be equitably apportioned as of the date of the casualty event and all such rent as above described thereafter accruing shall be equitably and proportionately adjusted according to the nature and extent of the destruction or damage, pending completion of the Restoration. In the event of a casualty in which more than 50% of the Premises are rendered unfit for the conduct of Tenant’s business operations in the Premises, Basic Rent and Additional Rent under this Lease will be completely abated pending completion of the Restoration; provided, however, Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall not be abated for any portion of the Premises occupied and used for a Permitted Use by Tenant.
11.8 Extension of Term
If a fire or other casualty renders more than 50% of the rentable square footage of the Premises untenantable during the Term and Landlord has an obligation to restore the Premises pursuant to this Article 11, the then expiration date of the Term shall automatically be extended for a period equal to the number of days from the date of the fire or casualty event until Landlord achieves Substantial Completion of the Restoration.

12.1 Termination of Lease
If Landlord becomes aware that a Condemning Authority is considering effecting a Taking of all or any material part of the Property, Landlord will notify Tenant (“Landlord’s Taking Notice”) within three (3) business days following Landlord’s becoming first aware of such proposed Taking and Tenant will reasonably determine whether the Taking will render the Premises unsuitable for Tenant’s intended purposes. If Tenant reasonably concludes that the Taking will render the Premises unsuitable for Tenant’s intended purposes, Landlord and Tenant will document such determination and this Lease will terminate as of the date the Condemning Authority takes possession of the portion of the Property taken. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that if more than ten percent (10%) of the rentable area of the Premises shall be subject to such Taking, or if more than ten percent (10%) of the parking shall be subject to such Taking and Landlord shall be unable to continue to provide parking spaces as required pursuant to Section 4.7 hereof within the Parking Area or to provide alternative parking spaces in the same number on property contiguous with the Property and on which the most remote parking spaces shall not be located more than 300 feet from the main door of the Building, then Tenant’s determination that such taking shall render the Premises unsuitable for Tenant’s purpose shall be conclusively deemed to be reasonable; the foregoing shall not under any circumstances be deemed to mean that any conclusion by Tenant that a Taking shall render the Premises unsuitable for Tenant’s purposes is unreasonable, notwithstanding that the Taking may affect less than ten percent (10%) of the Premises or less than ten percent (10%) of the parking spaces. Tenant will pay Rent to the date of termination provided, however, that if Tenant shall advise Landlord in writing of Tenant’s need to remain in the balance of the Premises for a period after the Condemning Authority shall have taken possession, (which notice shall (a) specify the exact term (not to exceed 180 days) that Tenant may remain in the Premises and (b) be given within thirty (30) days after the date of Landlord’s Taking Notice), then Tenant may remain in such Premises and/or the balance thereof following such Taking for a period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days following such Taking, upon all of the terms and conditions set forth herein, provided, however, that Tenant’s liability for Basic Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses Percentage shall be adjusted in the same manner as set forth in 12.2 below. If a Condemning Authority takes all or any material part of the Building or if a Taking reduces the value of the Property by 50% or more (as reasonably determined by Landlord), regardless of whether the Premises are affected, then Landlord, at Landlord’s option, by written notice to Tenant no later than fifteen (15) days following Landlord’s original notice to Tenant of such proposed Taking, may terminate this Lease effective on the date the Condemning Authority takes possession of the portion of the Property taken provided, however, that if Tenant shall advise Landlord in writing of Tenant’s need to remain in the balance of the Premises for a period after the Condemning Authority shall have taken possession (which notice shall (a) specify the exact term (not to exceed 180 days) that Tenant may remain in the Premises and (b) be given within thirty (30) days after the date of Landlord’s Taking Notice), then Tenant may remain in such Premises and/or the balance thereof following such Taking for a period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days following such Taking, upon all of the terms and conditions set forth herein, provided, however, that Tenant’s liability for Basic Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses Percentage shall be adjusted in the same manner as set forth in 12.2 below.
12.2 Landlord’s Repair Obligations
If this Lease does not terminate with respect to the entire Premises under Section 12.1 and the Taking includes a portion of the Premises, this Lease automatically terminates as to the portion of the
40
Premises taken as of the date the Condemning Authority takes possession of the portion taken and Landlord will, at its sole cost and expense, with all commercially reasonable diligence and speed, restore the remaining portion of the Premises to a complete architectural unit and restore all Landlord Improvements and Tenant Improvements originally constructed and/or installed by Landlord or Tenant, with all commercially reasonable diligence and speed. The Basic Rent for the period after the date the Condemning Authority takes possession of the portion of the Premises taken shall be reduced to a sum equal to the product of the Basic Rent provided for in this Lease multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the rentable area of the Premises after the Taking and after Landlord restores the Premises (including, without limitation, the Tenant Improvements) to a complete architectural unit, and the denominator of which is the rentable area of the Premises prior to the Taking, and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses Percentage for the same period, as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.10, shall be reduced to a percentage equal to the ratio of the rentable area of the Premises after the Taking and after Landlord restores the Premises, (including, without limitation, the Landlord Improvements and the Tenant Improvements) to a complete architectural unit, to the rentable area of the Premises prior to the taking, to account for the reduction in the rentable area of the Premises or the Building resulting from the Taking. Tenant’s obligation to pay Basic Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses will xxxxx on a proportionate basis with respect to that portion of the Premises remaining after the Taking that Tenant is unable to use during Landlord’s restoration for the period of time that Tenant is unable to use such portion of the Premises.
The condition of the Premises following Landlord’s restoration shall meet the following requirements: (i) the Premises (including, without limitation, the Tenant Improvements) shall be finished to materially the same quality and standard of the Premises existing immediately prior to the Taking; (ii) parking shall be available for use by Tenant at least to the extent necessary to provide parking spaces sufficient to satisfy the requirements of Section 4.7 hereof; and (iii) the Building, as restored, shall constitute an architecturally viable first-class building, including, without limitation, public entryways, first floor lobby, elevator lobbies on all floors of the Premises, all finished to materially the same quality and standards existing immediately prior to the Taking, materially in accordance with the Improvements Standard described in Section 17, and with the facilities and services required to be provided to Tenant by Landlord hereunder.
If Landlord fails to complete its restoration obligations hereunder with respect to the Building and the Premises (including, without limitation, Landlord Improvements and Tenant Improvements) within one hundred eighty (180) days following the date the Condemning Authority takes possession, subject to extension for Tenant Delay or Force Majeure (the “Condemnation Restoration Delivery Date”), then Tenant may thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the restoration in accordance with this Section 12.2, give written notice within ten (10) days after the Condemnation Restoration Delivery Date to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to terminate this Lease. If Substantial Completion of the restoration described in this Section 12.2 has not occurred within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of such notice, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease at any time thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the restoration described in this Section 12.2. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s termination notice to be delivered pursuant to this Section 12.2, and if Tenant does not deliver such notice within the above-described ten (10) day period, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 12.2.
12.3 Tenant’s Participation
41
Landlord is entitled to receive and keep all damages, awards or payments resulting from or paid on account of a Taking, except as expressly provided herein. Accordingly, Tenant waives and assigns to Landlord any interest of Tenant in any such damages, awards or payments. Tenant may prove in any condemnation proceedings and may receive any separate award for damages to or condemnation of Tenant’s trade fixtures and equipment, for the unamortized balance of leasehold improvements constructed at Tenant’s expense, for moving expenses and for any other losses relating to Tenant’s business as shall be permitted by law to be recovered; provided, however, notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.3 to the contrary, Tenant has no right to receive any award for its interest in this Lease or for loss of leasehold.
12.4 Exclusive Taking Remedy.
The provisions of this Article 12 are Tenant’s sole and exclusive rights and remedies in the event of a Taking. To the extent permitted by the Laws, Tenant waives the benefits of any Law that provides Tenant any abatement or termination rights or any right to receive any payment or award (by virtue of a Taking) not specifically described in this Article 12.
ARTICLE 13.
TRANSFERS
13.1 Restriction on Transfers
13.1.1 General Prohibition
Except as set forth in Section 13.1.2, Tenant will not cause or suffer a Transfer without obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant’s request for consent to a Transfer must describe in detail the parties, terms and portion of the Premises affected. Landlord will notify Tenant of Landlord’s election to consent or withhold consent within ten (10) business days after receiving Tenant’s written request for consent to the Transfer; Landlord’s failure to so notify Tenant within such ten (10) business day period shall constitute Landlord’s consent to the proposed Transfer. If Landlord consents to the Transfer, Landlord may impose on Tenant or the transferee such conditions as Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, deems appropriate. Tenant will, in connection with requesting Landlord’s consent, provide Landlord with a copy of any and all documents and information regarding the proposed Transfer and the proposed transferee as Landlord reasonably requests. Subject to the provisions of Section 13.1.3 below, no Transfer, including, without limitation, a Transfer under Section 13.1.2, releases Tenant from any liability or obligation under this Lease and Tenant remains liable to Landlord after such a Transfer as a principal and not as a surety. In no event may Tenant cause or suffer a Transfer to another tenant of the Building unless (a) such tenant pays full market rental rate at the time of such Transfer without any concessions or discounts of any kind (including, without limitation, concessions or discounts relating to tenant improvements, operating expenses, or brokerage commissions) that would effectively reduce the amount of rent paid by such tenant to less than full market rental rate, or (b) Landlord does not have available space within the Building to accommodate such tenant’s space needs. Any attempted Transfer in violation of this Lease is null and void and constitutes a breach of this Lease.
42 >
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord shall not have the right to withhold its consent to any proposed Transfer, if all of the following conditions have been satisfied to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction:
(1) | The proposed use of the Premises by the proposed transferee will be as permitted under this Lease. | |||
(2) | The proposed transferee shall not be any person or entity which shall have engaged in negotiations with Landlord or Landlord’s agent (directly or through a broker) with respect to space in the Building during the six months immediately preceding Tenant’s request for Landlord’s consent, provided that such prospective Tenant and Landlord have executed a letter of intent or otherwise reached agreement on the material economic and business terms of the transaction. | |||
(3) | There shall exist no Event Of Default by Tenant under any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease at the time that Landlord’s consent to any such Transfer is requested. |
13.1.2 Transfers to Affiliates
Tenant, without Landlord’s consent (provided that there does not then exist any Event of Default on the part of Tenant in the performance of its obligations under this Lease), may cause a Transfer to an Affiliate or Successor if Tenant (a) notifies Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to such Transfer; and (b) the transferee assumes and agrees in a writing reasonably acceptable to Landlord to perform Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and to observe all terms and conditions of this Lease.
13.1.3 Additional Provision Regarding Assignment
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 13 to the contrary, in the event Tenant should transfer its interest in the Lease to a “Credit Quality Tenant” as hereinafter defined, and at the time of such transfer this Lease shall be in full force and effect and there does not then exist any Event of Default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions herein contained which has not been remedied within the cure period as contained in this Lease, and Tenant has otherwise complied with the requirements of this Article 13, then upon the Transfer of this Lease to a Credit Quality Tenant, Landlord shall, by or before the effective date of such Transfer, deliver to Tenant, in writing, a release from any liabilities or obligations under this Lease which arise out of or relate to the portion of the Term following the effective date of such transfer. For the purposes of this Section, the term “Credit Quality Tenant” shall mean an entity qualified to do business in the State of Florida with a tangible net worth of $425 million or more, as measured in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and a credit rating of not less than BBB from Standard & Poors Rating Services or not less than Baa2 from Xxxxx’x
13.2 Costs
Tenant will pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, all reasonable costs and expenses Landlord incurs in connection with any Transfer, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and
43
costs, regardless of whether Landlord consents to the Transfer, provided, however, such costs and expenses shall in no event exceed $1,500.00 for each Transfer.
13.3 Rights of Transferees
Any assignee of Tenant’s rights hereunder shall be entitled to all of the rights, title and benefits afforded to the original Tenant hereunder, in all respects as if such assignee were the original named Tenant hereunder.

ARTICLE 14.
DEFAULTS; REMEDIES
14.1 Events of Default
The occurrence of any of the following constitutes an “Event of Default” by Tenant under this Lease:
14.1.1 Failure to Pay Rent
Tenant fails to pay Basic Rent, any monthly installment of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses or any other Additional Rent amount as and when due, and such failure continues for five (5) business days after Tenant receives written notice of such nonpayment.
14.1.2 Failure to Perform
Tenant breaches or fails to perform any of Tenant’s nonmonetary obligations under this Lease and the breach or failure continues for a period of 30 days after Landlord notifies Tenant of Tenant’s breach or failure; provided that if Tenant cannot reasonably cure its breach or failure within a 30 day period, Tenant’s breach or failure is not an Event of Default if Tenant commences to cure its breach or failure within the 30 day period and thereafter diligently pursues the cure and effects the cure within a period of time that does not exceed 60 days after the expiration of the 30 day period.
14.1.3 Misrepresentation
The existence of any material misrepresentation or omission in any financial statements, correspondence or other information provided to or Tenant’s public Securities and Exchange Commission filings accessed by Landlord in connection with (a) Landlord’s evaluation of Tenant as a prospective tenant at the Property; (b) any proposed or attempted Transfer; or (c) any consent or approval Tenant requests under this Lease; provided that any such misrepresentation or omission shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder if: (i) such proposed Transfer has not yet occurred and Tenant withdraws its request for same; or (ii) such proposed Transfer has occurred, but Tenant terminates or rescinds such transfer within 30 days following receipt of Landlord’s advice in writing to Tenant of such misrepresentation or omission; or (iii) the consent or approval which Tenant has requested is as to a matter which Tenant can remedy or cure, and Tenant remedies such matter within thirty (30) days after Landlord notifies Tenant of such misrepresentation or omission; provided that if Tenant cannot reasonably remedy such matter within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall have an additional period of time, not to exceed sixty (60) days after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period to remedy same, provided that Tenant shall commence such remedy within the thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursue same to completion.
14.1.4 [Intentionally Reserved]
14.1.5 Other Defaults
(a) Tenant makes a general assignment or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors; (b) a petition for adjudication of bankruptcy or for reorganization or rearrangement is
45
filed by Tenant; (c) a petition for adjudication of bankruptcy or for reorganization or rearrangement is filed against Tenant and is not dismissed within 60 days; (d) a trustee or receiver is appointed to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease and possession is not restored to Tenant within sixty (60) days; or (e) substantially all of Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or Tenant’s interest in this Lease is subjected to attachment, execution or other judicial seizure not discharged within sixty (60) days. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any act described in this section does not constitute an Event of Default, and the court appoints a trustee to take possession of the Premises (or if Tenant remains a debtor in possession of the Premises) and such trustee or Tenant Transfers Tenant’s interest hereunder, then Landlord is entitled to receive, as Additional Rent, the amount by which the Rent (or any other consideration) paid in connection with the Transfer exceeds the Rent otherwise payable by Tenant under this Lease. Landlord hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that Tenant’s abandonment or vacation of the Premises shall not be deemed a breach or Event of Default hereunder.
14.2 Remedies
In the event any Event of Default specified above in Section 14.1 occurs, Landlord may at any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any other right or remedy which Landlord may have by reason of such Event of Default:
14.2.1 Termination of Tenant’s Right to Possession of the Premises
Terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord. In such event Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s Event of Default including, but not limited to, the reasonable cost of recovering possession of the Premises, reasonable expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorney’s fees, and any real estate commission actually paid or required to be paid.
14.2.2 Right of Re-Entry and Reletting.
Re-enter and take possession of the Premises and relet the same for Tenant’s account, holding Tenant liable for all damages and reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in any such reletting and for any difference between the amount of rents received from such reletting and those due and payable under the terms of this Lease. In the event Landlord relets the Premises, Landlord shall have the right and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, as soon as possible following the termination of Tenant’s possession, to lease or let the Premises, either in their entirety or by subdividing same (provided any subdivision shall be undertaken only if Landlord, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, determines that such subdivision is economically and physically prudent), for such periods of time and such rentals and for such use and upon such covenants and conditions as Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, may elect, provided such covenants and conditions shall be reasonably related to market terms and conditions; and Landlord may make such repairs and improvements to the Premises as may be reasonably necessary. Landlord shall be entitled to bring such actions or proceedings for the recovery of any deficits due to Landlord as it may deem advisable, without being obligated to wait until the end of the term, and commencement or maintenance of any one or more actions shall not bar Landlord from bringing other or subsequent actions for further accruals, nor shall anything in this Subsection 14.2.2 limit or prohibit Landlord’s
46 >
right at any time to accelerate all rents and charges due from Tenant to the end of the term, or to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant;
14.2.3 Acceleration of Rent
Declare all rents and charges due hereunder to be immediately due and payable and thereupon all Basic Rent and Additional Rent (excluding Variable Operating Expenses) due to the end of the Term, less the fair market rental value for the Premises for such period, shall thereupon be accelerated; provided, however, such accelerated Basic Rent and Additional Rent (excluding Variable Operating Expenses) and such fair market rental value shall be discounted to their then present value on the basis of a five percent (5%) per annum discount from the respective dates that such amounts would have been paid hereunder. In the event that any charges due hereunder cannot be exactly determined as the date of acceleration, the amount of such charges shall be determined by Landlord in a reasonable manner based on historical increases in such charges.
14.2.4 Other Remedies
Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord under the laws or judicial decisions of the State, to the extent not inconsistent with the foregoing.
14.3 Costs
Tenant will reimburse and compensate Landlord on demand and as Additional Rent for any loss Landlord incurs in connection with, resulting from or related to any Event of Default of Tenant under this Lease, and regardless whether suit is commenced or judgment is entered. Such loss includes all reasonable legal fees, costs and expenses (including paralegal fees and other professional fees and expenses) Landlord incurs investigating, negotiating, settling or enforcing any of Landlord’s rights or remedies or otherwise protecting Landlord’s interests under this Lease. Tenant will also indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord), protect and hold harmless the Landlord Parties from and against all Claims Landlord or any of the other Landlord Parties incurs if Landlord or any of the other Landlord Parties becomes or is made a party to any claim or action (a) instituted by Tenant or by or against any person holding any interest in the Premises by, under or through Tenant; (b) for foreclosure of any lien for labor or material furnished to or for Tenant or such other person; or (c) otherwise arising out of or resulting from any act or omission of Tenant or such other person. In addition to the foregoing, Landlord is entitled to reimbursement of all of Landlord’s reasonable fees, expenses and damages, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and paralegal and other professional fees and expenses, Landlord incurs in connection with protecting its interests in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding involving Tenant, including, without limitation, any proceeding under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code; by exercising and advocating rights under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; by proposing a plan of reorganization and objecting to competing plans; and by filing motions for relief from stay. Such fees and expenses are payable on demand, or, in any event, upon assumption or rejection of this Lease in bankruptcy.
14.4 Waiver and Release by Tenant
Tenant waives and releases all Claims Tenant may have resulting from Landlord’s re-entry and taking possession of the Premises, following any Event of Default by Tenant hereunder, by any lawful means and removing and storing Tenant’s property as permitted under this Lease, regardless
47
whether this Lease is terminated, and, to the fullest extent allowable under the Laws, Tenant will release, indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord), protect and hold harmless the Landlord Parties from and against any and all Claims occasioned thereby. No such reentry, following any Event of Default by Tenant hereunder, is to be considered or construed as a forcible entry by Landlord.
14.5 Landlord’s Default
It shall be a default on the part of Landlord hereunder (a “Landlord’s Default”) if Landlord defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease and Landlord shall fail to cure such default within 30 days after receiving notice from Tenant thereof; provided that Landlord is not reasonably able to cure the default within a 30 day period, Landlord will have an additional reasonable period of time to cure the default as long as Landlord commences the cure within the 30 day period and thereafter diligently pursues the cure and effects the cure within a period of time that does not exceed 60 days after the expiration of the 30 day period. In no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant or any other person for consequential, special or punitive damages, including, without limitation, lost profits.
14.6 No Waiver
Except as specifically set forth in this Lease, no failure by Landlord or Tenant to insist upon the other party’s performance of any of the terms of this Lease or to exercise any right or remedy upon a breach thereof, constitutes a waiver of any such breach or of any breach or default by the other party in its performance of its obligations under this Lease. No acceptance by Landlord of full or partial Rent from Tenant or any third party during the continuance of any breach or default by Tenant of Tenant’s performance of its obligations under this Lease constitutes Landlord’s waiver of any such breach or default. Except as specifically set forth in this Lease, none of the terms of this Lease to be kept, observed or performed by a party to this Lease, and no breach thereof, are waived, altered or modified except by a written instrument executed by the other party. One or more waivers by a party to this Lease is not to be construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach of the same covenant, term or condition. No statement on a payment check from a party to this Lease or in a letter accompanying a payment check is binding on the other party. The party receiving the check, with or without notice to the other party, may negotiate such check without being bound to the conditions of any such statement.
ARTICLE 15.
CREDITORS; ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
15.1 Subordination
Subject to the conditions herein set forth, this Lease, all rights of Tenant in this Lease, and all interest or estate of Tenant in the Property, is subject and subordinate to the lien of any Mortgage. Tenant, on Landlord’s demand, will execute and deliver to Landlord or to any other person Landlord designates any instruments, releases or other documents reasonably required to effect the subordination of this Lease as provided in this section to the lien of any Mortgage. The subordination to any future Mortgage provided for in this section is expressly conditioned upon the mortgagee’s agreement (which shall be materially in the form of the Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreements attached as EXHIBIT “E” hereto and hereby made a part hereof, an
48
“SNDA”) that as long as there does not exist an Event of Default on the part of Tenant in the payment of Rent or the performance and observance of any covenant, condition, provision, term or agreement to be performed and observed by Tenant under this Lease, beyond any applicable grace or cure period this Lease provides Tenant, the holder of the Mortgage will not disturb Tenant’s rights under this Lease. The lien of any existing or future Mortgage will not cover Tenant’s moveable trade fixtures or other personal property of Tenant located in or on the Premises. At such time as Landlord obtains a Mortgage or any future secured loans on the Property, the Landlord, Tenant and the holder of such mortgage or future secured loan shall execute a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement in substantially the form attached this Lease as EXHIBIT “E”. With respect to any Mortgage or secured loan presently affecting the Property, Landlord shall, by or before the date of execution of this Lease, furnish an executed SNDA from such holder of such existing Mortgage or other secured loan.
15.2 Attornment
If any ground lessor, holder of any Mortgage at a foreclosure sale or any other transferee acquires Landlord’s interest in this Lease, the Premises or the Property, Tenant will attorn to the transferee of or successor to Landlord’s interest in this Lease, the Premises or the Property (as the case may be) and recognize such transferee or successor as landlord under this Lease.
Tenant waives the protection of any statute or rule of law that gives or purports to give Tenant any right to terminate this Lease or surrender possession of the Premises upon the transfer of Landlord’s interest.
15.3 Mortgagee Protection Clause
Tenant will give the holder of any Mortgage, by registered mail, a copy of any notice of default Tenant serves on Landlord, provided that Landlord or the holder of the Mortgage previously notified Tenant in writing (by way of notice of assignment of rents and leases or otherwise) of the address of such holder together with an express request for notices of default. Tenant further agrees that such mortgage holder shall have the same period of time afforded to Landlord to cure such default.
15.4 Estoppel Certificates
15.4.1 Contents
Upon the written request of either party, the other party hereto will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other a written statement in form reasonably satisfactory to the requesting party certifying: (a) that this Lease (and all guaranties, if any) is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been any modifications, that the Lease is in full force and effect, as modified, and stating the modifications); (b) that this Lease has not been canceled or terminated; (c) the last date of payment of Rent and the time period covered by such payment; (d) whether there are then existing any known breaches or defaults by the other party under this Lease, and, if so, specifying the same; (e) specifying any existing claims or defenses in favor of such party against the enforcement of this Lease (or of any guaranties); and (f) such other factual statements as the requesting party, any lender, prospective lender, investor or purchaser may reasonably request. The party from whom such statement is requested will deliver the statement to the requesting party within
49
10 Business Days after request. The requesting party may give any such statement to any lender, prospective lender, investor or purchaser and any such party may conclusively rely upon such statement as true and correct.
15.4.2 Failure to Deliver
If the party from whom such statement is requested does not timely deliver the statement referenced in Section 15.4.1 to the requesting party, (a) the requesting party may execute and deliver the statement to any third party on behalf of the other party and (b) such failure shall constitute an Event of Default or Landlord’s Default, as the case may be, under this Lease. Further, if either party so fails to timely deliver the statement, the other party and any lender, prospective lender, investor or purchaser may conclusively presume and rely, except as otherwise represented by the requesting party: (i) that the terms and provisions of this Lease have not been changed; (ii) that this Lease has not been canceled or terminated; (iii) that not more than one month’s Rent has been paid in advance; and (iv) that Landlord is not in default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease. In such event, the other party is estopped from denying the truth of such facts.
ARTICLE 16.
TERMINATION OF LEASE
16.1 Surrender of Premises
Tenant will surrender the Premises to Landlord at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease in good order, condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear, permitted Alterations and damage by casualty or condemnation excepted, and will surrender all keys to the Premises to Property Manager or to Landlord at the place then fixed for Tenant’s payment of Basic Rent or as Landlord or Property Manager otherwise direct. Tenant will also inform Landlord of all combinations on locks, safes and vaults, if any, remaining in the Premises or on the Property. Tenant will at such time remove all of its property from the Premises and, if Landlord so requests, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, all specified Alterations and improvements Tenant placed on the Premises. Tenant will promptly repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal. If Tenant does not surrender the Premises in accordance with this section, Tenant will release, indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) protect and hold harmless Landlord from and against any Claim resulting from Tenant’s delay in so surrendering the Premises, including, without limitation, any Claim made by any succeeding occupant founded on such delay. All property of Tenant not removed on or before the last day of the Term is deemed abandoned. Tenant appoints Landlord as Tenant’s agent to remove, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, all of Tenant’s property from the Premises upon termination of this Lease and to cause its transportation and storage for Tenant’s benefit, all at the sole cost and risk of Tenant, and Landlord will not be liable for damage, theft, misappropriation or loss thereof or in any manner in respect thereto.
16.2 Holding Over
If Tenant possesses the Premises after the Term expires or is otherwise terminated without executing a new lease but with Landlord’s written consent, Tenant is deemed to be occupying the Premises as a tenant from month-to-month, subject to all provisions, conditions and obligations of this Lease applicable to a month-to-month tenancy, except that (a) Basic Rent will equal the greater

If Tenant possesses the Premises after the Term expires or is otherwise terminated without executing a new lease and without Landlord’s written consent, Tenant is deemed to be occupying the Premises without claim of right (but subject to all terms and conditions of this Lease) and, in addition to Tenant’s liability for failing to surrender possession of the Premises as provided in Section 16.1, Tenant will pay Landlord a charge for each day of occupancy after expiration of the Term in an amount equal to 150% of Tenant’s then existing Rent.
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 16.2 to the contrary, upon twelve (12) months prior written notice (“Tenant’s Holdover Notice”) to Landlord, Tenant will be permitted to remain in possession of the Premises after expiration of the initial Term or any Renewal Term of this Lease (and the Term of the Lease shall be deemed to be so extended), and without the execution of a new lease, subject to all the provisions, conditions, and obligations of this Lease, except that (a) the Basic Rent will be escalated to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Basic Rent in effect during the last Lease Year of the applicable term, and (b) the holdover term during which Tenant may remain in possession of the Premises will be a term, not to exceed six (6) months, as such term will be stated in Tenant’s Holdover Notice. Time is of the essence with respect to the period during which Tenant must deliver Tenant’s Holdover Notice and to the term of Tenant’s holdover.

The price and revision to the Construction Schedule, once received and approved by Landlord will be submitted to Tenant’s Representative for approval, together with appropriate detailed back-up information, including, without limitation, the subcontractor bids and a break down of all labor, materials, profit and overhead (which profit and overhead shall not exceed 7% of the cost of labor and materials) involved in the Change Order to enable Tenant’s Representative to properly evaluate the price and schedule. Upon receipt of such information, the Tenant’s Representative shall have five (5) Business Days within which to approve or object such proposed Change Order. In the event the Tenant’s Representative and Landlord reach agreement on a Change Order, to the extent such Change Order affects the critical path of the Construction Schedule, the Construction Schedule shall be revised, and if there is an increase in the number of days of the Construction Schedule’s critical path, then such days shall be deemed a Tenant Delay.
17.4 Construction Price and Major Subcontracts
56 >
Landlord shall cause the Tenant’s Improvements to be constructed under the supervision and control of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, the Florida certified and licensed general contractor for Opus South Corporation (the “Landlord’s Contractor”). For the construction of the Tenant’s Improvements, the construction price (the “Construction Price”) for the Tenant’s Improvements (subject to the application of the Improvement Allowance) shall be the sum of: (A) the cost of all labor and materials required to construct the Tenant’s Improvements in accordance with the Interior CDs (including without limitation the cost of any Change Orders), (B) the cost of obtaining all required permits for the Tenant’s Improvements (including the cost of permit-expediting, up to $1,500), (C) the cost of an on-site xxxxxxx responsible for the supervision of the labor relating to the Tenant’s Improvements at a rate no higher than $25 per hour, which shall in no event exceed a total of $20,000 for the Tenant’s Improvements, (D) the reasonable cost of printing plans, if any, for the Tenant’s Improvements incurred by Landlord, and (E) the profit and overhead of the Landlord’s Contractor, which shall not exceed 7% of the sum of (A), (B), (C) and (D) above, provided such Construction Price shall in no event exceed the amount of the Final Budget.
The Landlord’s Contractor shall submit, to a range of between two (2) and five (5) subcontractors and materialmen, of which, at a minimum, two (2) shall be subcontractors or materialmen, as the case may be, chosen by Tenant and reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and Landlord’s Contractor (the “Tenant-Selected Subcontractors”), calls for bids (each a “CFB”) for the following hard costs: mechanical, electrical, conduit for cabling, plumbing, and drywall and all other components which in any single instance shall cost $10,000.00 or more (the “Major Hard Cost Components”). All subcontractors and materialmen to which CFBs are submitted shall meet, both at the time the CFBs are submitted and at the time Landlord’s Contractor selects subcontractors and materialmen, the qualifying criteria described on EXHIBIT “L” attached hereto (the “Qualifying Criteria”) in both Landlord’s and Tenant’s reasonable discretion.
The form of such CFBs shall be commercially reasonable and satisfactory to Tenant and shall stipulate that each prospective subcontractor shall, with respect to such Major Hard Cost Component, furnish to a specified location, mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant, no later than a specified hour on a specified date, its sealed bid for the construction of the subject Major Hard Cost Component (including, without limitation, all labor and materials reasonably inferable from or incidental to the Interior CDs with respect to such Hard Cost Component), for a stipulated sum, with an itemization of unit costs, as appropriate for such Bid, and shall agree to a retainage of not less than 10% of such stipulated sum, until completion of the subject work. Following the receipt of the bids for each such Hard Cost Component (the “Bids”) Landlord’s Contractor shall select the subcontractor for such Major Hard Cost Component (a “Major Subcontractor”) who submits the lowest Bid, and within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, Landlord’s Contractor shall enter into a stipulated sum subcontract with such Major Subcontractor, on terms materially consistent with those set forth in the Bid (the “Major Subcontract”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a subcontractor who submitted the lowest Bid for a Major Hard Cost Component fails to meet all of the Qualifying Criteria at the time Landlord’s Contractor selects the Major Subcontractors, Landlord’s Contractor shall not be obligated to select such non-qualifying subcontractor and may select the subcontractor for such Major Hard Cost Component who submitted the next lowest Bid.
The Landlord shall hold a retainage of 10% of each subcontract price from each payment to the Landlord’s Contractor (the “Retainage”), which Retainage shall be paid only upon the Substantial Completion of the Tenant’s Improvements (subject to a further retainage of 150% of the reasonably estimated costs of all Punch List items, until the completion of same); provided, however, no
57
retainage shall be held with respect to materials purchased directly from vendors (i.e., not purchased through subcontractors).
Subject to the terms of Section 1.2.2, the Landlord’s Contractor shall construct the Tenant’s Improvements by the Delivery Date in accordance with the Construction Schedule.
17.5 Tenant’s Representative

Tenant may change Tenant’s Representative at any time upon written notice to Landlord in accordance with provisions of this Lease. Tenant’s Representative and Tenant’s designated agents (which may include, without limitation, a construction manager and/or construction auditor) shall have the right to inspect the Tenant’s Improvements at all reasonable times so long as such parties do not unreasonably interfere with the construction of the Tenant’s Improvements.
17.6 Tenant’s Installations
Tenant at its expense shall construct and install all such improvements as Tenant shall require which are not included in the Tenant’s Improvements (“Tenant’s Initial Alterations”) and shall install its furniture, trade fixtures and equipment (“FFE”), so that Tenant may be able to occupy the Premises for the uses and purposes herein intended. Tenant’s Initial Alterations shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 8, with respect to Alterations. Tenant may begin to construct and install such Tenant’s Initial Alterations and to install such FFE prior to Substantial Completion of the Tenant’s Improvements, provided, however, that no such pre-Substantial Completion construction or installation shall in any way delay or interfere with the construction of the Landlord’s Improvements or the Tenant’s Improvements. Tenant shall arrange a meeting to coordinate with Landlord, prior to any such pre-Substantial Completion construction or installation, and Landlord and Tenant shall each coordinate in good faith to insure that their respective contractors work together in harmony. Tenant’s access to the Premises for such construction and installation shall at all times be subject to the terms and conditions of the Lease (except for Tenant’s obligation to pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent) and subject to the Landlord’s commercially reasonable rules and regulations regarding such access. Tenant shall be responsible for obtaining all necessary permits and approvals at Tenant’s expense, in connection with the work performed by Tenant’s contractors.
17.7 Landlord Supervision
Landlord shall make all commercially reasonable efforts to monitor and supervise the construction of the Tenant’s Improvements in order to ensure that such Tenant’s Improvements are constructed in accordance with the Interior CDs within the Construction Price, and in accordance with the Construction Schedule. Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord or its designee shall conduct weekly meetings with the Landlord’s Contractor and other appropriate parties to verify that all work is being performed according to the Interior CDs, the approved Change Orders and the Construction Schedule. Landlord or its designee shall prepare meeting minutes after each such meeting and submit same to Tenant’s Representative, regarding the status of the construction, including any material variance with the Interior CDs and/or Construction Schedule.

The Arbitrator shall render a decision with respect to the dispute, within five (5) Business Days after receipt thereof or such longer period of time as reasonably required by the Arbitrator if the decision with respect to such dispute cannot reasonably be completed within such five (5) Business Days. The Arbitrator’s fees and costs shall be divided equally between Landlord and Tenant.

Landlord shall pay to Tenant the full amount of the Design Allowance upon the Effective Date. To the extent that the cost of the preparation of the Plans shall exceed the Design Allowance or the Construction Price shall exceed the Tenant Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall be liable for the difference.

Landlord shall not charge Tenant fees for construction coordination or supervision, or for review or approval of Plans or Change Orders, or for the cost of utility services, air conditioning or other services provided during installation of furnishings, fixtures or equipment. The Construction Price shall be paid as follows: (i) Landlord shall disburse the full amount of the Tenant Improvement Allowance and (ii) if the Construction Price shall exceed the Tenant Improvement Allowance, then, following the disbursement of the full amount of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall pay all remaining Tenant’s Improvements costs, not to exceed the Construction Price, on or before the fifteenth (15th) Business Day after Tenant’s receipt of an invoice therefor from Landlord or Landlord’s Contractor, but no more frequently than once monthly; provided, however, the Retainage shall be disbursed by Tenant to the Landlord’s Contractor only upon (A) the Substantial Completion of the Tenant’s Improvements, subject to a further retainage of 150% of the reasonably estimated cost of the Punch List items until the final completion of same; (B) the submittal of the final release of lien from the Landlord’s Contractor; (C) the submittal of the final contractor’s affidavit as contemplated by Chapter 713, Florida Statutes, indicating that all subcontractors have been paid in full, and (D) a written certification from Tenant’s Architect that the Tenant’s Improvements have been substantially completed to Tenant’s reasonable satisfaction.

18.23 Nondisclosure of Lease Terms
The terms and conditions of this Lease constitute proprietary information of Landlord that Tenant will use reasonable efforts to keep confidential in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 18.23. Tenant’s disclosure of the terms and conditions of this Lease could adversely affect Landlord’s ability to negotiate other leases and impair Landlord’s relationship with other tenants. Accordingly, Tenant will use commercially reasonable efforts to not directly or indirectly disclose the terms and conditions of this Lease to any other tenant or prospective tenant of the Building or to any other person or entity other than those parties who have a legitimate need to know such information (and who will also keep the same in confidence) in connection with Tenant’s on-going business activities.

The terms and provisions of this Lease represent the results of negotiations between Landlord and Tenant, each of which are sophisticated parties and each of which has been represented or been given the opportunity to be represented by counsel of its own choosing, and neither of which has acted under any duress or compulsion, whether legal, economic or otherwise. Consequently, the terms and provisions of this Lease must be interpreted and construed in accordance with their usual and customary meanings, and Landlord and Tenant each waive the application of any rule of law that ambiguous or conflicting terms or provisions contained in this Lease are to be interpreted or construed against the party who prepared the executed Lease or any earlier draft of the same.
65
Landlord’s submission of this instrument to Tenant for examination or signature by Tenant does not constitute a reservation of or an option to lease and is not effective as a lease or otherwise until Landlord and Tenant both execute and deliver this Lease. The parties agree that, regardless of which party provided the initial form of this Lease, drafted or modified one or more provisions of this Lease, or compiled, printed or copied this Lease, this Lease is to be construed solely as an offer from Tenant to lease the Premises, executed by Tenant and provided to Landlord for acceptance on the terms set forth in this Lease, which acceptance and the existence of a binding agreement between Tenant and Landlord may then be evidenced only by Landlord’s execution of this Lease.
18.25 Consents and Approvals
Whenever the Lease requires Landlord’s consent or approval, Landlord will not withhold its approval or consent unreasonably or in bad faith, and Landlord will not unreasonably delay its response to Tenant’s request for approval or consent. Landlord will be deemed to have given its consent or approval to any request made by Tenant if Landlord does not respond to Tenant in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or such earlier time as is expressly provided herein) after Landlord’s receipt of such request. All notices or communications required under this Lease shall be given in accordance with Section 18.1 hereof. If Landlord withholds its consent or approval to a Tenant request, Landlord shall give Tenant a detailed written statement setting forth the basis for withholding its consent or approval. In the event Tenant shall request the consent, review, or approval of Landlord under this Lease, Tenant shall not be charged any fee for any such required consent, review, or approval.
Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that all lenders of Landlord whose approval is necessary for Landlord’s execution of this Lease have authorized all terms, covenants, and conditions, of the Lease prior to the Effective Date.
18.26 Radon Gas
The following disclosure is required by Florida law:

SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE,
AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT
THIS SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE, AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into this _________ day of April, 2000, by and among AMSOUTH BANK, an Alabama state-chartered bank (“Lender”), whose address is ATTN: Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx X, 00000 Feather Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000, and MIRAMAR 75. L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), whose address is 0000 X. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000, and ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES LTD., a Liberian corporation (“Tenant”), whose address is ____________________________________________________________ .
PART A. BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
Section 1. BACKGROUND. By that certain lease dated _______ 2000, with Landlord, (the “Lease”), Tenant leased certain premises located in ______________ County, Florida, as described in the Lease, which premises are located on that land described in Exhibit “A” attached hereto incorporated herein. Landlord has conveyed, mortgaged and encumbered the land, rents, leases and improvements containing Tenant’s premises to Lender by a Mortgage and Security Agreement (the “Mortgage”) to secure repayment of a loan in the amount of $17,385,000.00 from Lender to Landlord and performance of such other obligations as are or may be provided therein. The property encumbered by the Mortgage is herein called the “Property”. Landlord’s interest in the Lease has been assigned to Lender as additional security for Landlord’s obligations under the Mortgage. The performance of such obligations also from time to time are or may be secured by other written instruments that are herein collectively called the “Security Instruments”.
Section 2. PURPOSE. The parties wish to provide for the subordination of the Lease to the lien of the Mortgage, the non-disturbance of Tenant’s possession under the Lease if Lender pursues any remedy provided by the Mortgage, Tenant’s attornment to Lender, and certain other matters, all as set forth in this Agreement. Among other things, the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement constitute the consideration for the parties’ respective obligations set forth in this Agreement.
PART B. GENERAL COVENANTS
Section 3. SUBORDINATION. The Lease, including any and all amendments, modifications, replacements, substitutions, extensions, and renewals, and all other right, title, and
interest of Tenant in and to the Property whether now existing or hereafter acquired, is hereby and will continuously remain subordinate, subject, and inferior to all of the following: (i) the lien of the Mortgage and the security provided by the Security Instruments, (ii) all terms and provisions of the Mortgage and the Security Instruments; (iii) all sums now or hereafter secured by the Mortgage, or the Security Instruments, or any combination; (iv) all rights, remedies, powers, privileges, and immunities provided by the Mortgage, or the Security Instruments, or any combination, or otherwise available to the holder of the Mortgage and the Security Instruments at law or in equity; and (v) to any and all extensions, renewals, replacements, modifications, additions, substitutions, or consolidations of the Mortgage, or the Security Instruments, or any combination, irrespective of amount, term, or other provisions.
Section 4. RENTS. Landlord and Tenant jointly and severally agree that the Mortgage provides for the direct payment to Lender of all rents and other monies due and to become due to Landlord under the Lease, upon the occurrence of certain conditions as set forth in the Mortgage, without Lender’s taking possession of the Property or otherwise assuming Landlord’s position, or any of Landlord’s obligations, under the Lease. Upon receipt from Lender of written notice to pay all such rents and other monies to or at the direction of Lender, Landlord authorizes and directs Tenant thereafter to make all such payments to or at the direction of Lender, releases Tenant of any and all liability to Landlord for any and all payments so made, and will defend, indemnify, and hold Tenant harmless of and from any and all claims, demands, losses, or liabilities asserted by, through, or under Landlord (except by Lender) for any and all payments so made. Upon receipt of such notice, Tenant thereafter will pay all monies then due and to become due from Tenant under the Lease to or at the direction of Lender, notwithstanding any provision of the Lease to the contrary. Tenant agrees that neither Lender’s demanding or receiving any such payments, nor Lender’s exercising any other right, remedy, privilege, power, or immunity granted by the Mortgage, will operate to impose any liability upon Lender for performance of any obligation of Landlord under the Lease unless and until Lender elects otherwise in writing or acquires title to the Property by foreclosure of otherwise. Such payments will continue until Lender directs Tenant otherwise in writing. The provisions of this Section will apply from time to time throughout the term of the Lease.
Section 5. CURE. If Tenant becomes entitled to terminate the Lease because of any default by Landlord, then Tenant, as a condition precedent to such termination, shall give Lender written notice specifying Landlord’s default(s) and Tenant’s election to terminate the Lease. Lender then will have the right, but not the obligation, to cure the specified default(s) within a period of thirty (30) days after service of such notice with respect to any default that can be cured within thirty (30) days, or if said default can not be cured within thirty (30) days, but Lender commences to cure such default within thirty (30) days after service of such notice and diligently proceeds to effect a cure, in such event the Lender shall have a reasonable period of time to cure the default. If Lender within the applicable time period elects not to cure the specified default(s), then, in any such event, Tenant may proceed to terminate the Lease without liability to Lender. If Lender does cure the specified default(s) within the applicable cure period, then the Lease will continue in force and effect notwithstanding Tenant’s notice of election to terminate the Lease because of the specified default(s). Neither Lender’s undertaking to cure, nor Lender’s actual cure, of any and all default(s) pursuant to this Section will operate to impose any liability upon Lender for any obligation of Landlord under the Lease, unless and until Lender elects otherwise in writing. The provisions of this Section also apply to Tenant’s exercising any right, whether provided by the Lease or otherwise available at law or in equity, to offset, withhold, or xxxxx rents or otherwise to suspend performance of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease, except in connection with any casualty or condemnation loss, as may be
provided in the Lease, provided that Tenant shall be entitled to (i) offset rent by amounts expended under Section 19 of the Lease, and (ii) xxxxx rent under Section 6.3 of the Lease.
> Section 6. Intentionally omitted.
> Section 7. NON-DISTURBANCE. Lender will not, in the exercise of any right, remedy, or privilege granted by the Mortgage, or the Security Instruments, or otherwise available to Lender at law or in equity, disturb Tenant’s possession under the Lease so long as:
> (a) No Event of Default (as defined in the Lease) has occurred and is continuing under the Lease at the time Lender exercises any such right, remedy, or privilege; and
> (b) The Lease at that time is in full force and effect according to its original terms, or with such amendments or modifications as Lender shall have approved, as provided below; and
> (c) Tenant thereafter continues to fully perform all of its obligations under the Lease; and
> (d) Tenant attorns to or at the direction of Lender, as provided in the following Section.
>Without limitation of the foregoing, and so long as the foregoing conditions are met, Lender agrees that (i) Tenant will not be named as a party to any foreclosure or other proceeding instituted by Lender; and (ii) any sale or other transfer of the Property, or of Landlord’s interest in the Lease, pursuant to foreclosure or any voluntary conveyance or other proceeding in lieu of foreclosure, will be subject and subordinate to Tenant’s possession under the Lease; and (iii) the Lease will continue in force and effect according to its original terms, or with such amendments as Lender shall have approved, as provided below.
> Section 8. ATTORNMENT. Tenant will attorn to Lender, to any Receiver or similar official for the Property appointed at the instance and request, or with the consent, of Lender, and to any person who acquires the Property, or the Landlord’s interest in the Lease, or both, pursuant to Lender’s exercise of any right, remedy, or privilege granted by the Mortgage, the Security Instruments, or otherwise available at law or in equity, or by virtue of a conveyance of the Property by Landlord to a third party. Without limitation, Tenant will attorn to any person or entity that acquires the Property from Landlord or pursuant to foreclosure of the Mortgage, or by any proceeding or voluntary conveyance in lieu of such foreclosure, or from Lender, whether by sale, exchange, or otherwise. Tenant from time to time will execute and deliver at Lender’s request all customary instruments that may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such attornment. Upon any attornment under this Section, the Lease will continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between Tenant and the person or entity to whom Tenant attorns, except that such person or entity will not be: (i) liable for any act, omission, or default of any prior landlord, unless such act, omission, or default has occurred after Lender, its designees or assigns have obtained title to the Property by foreclosure or otherwise; or (ii) subject to any offsets, claims, or defenses that Tenant may have against any prior landlord, unless such act, omission, or default has occurred after Lender, its designees or assigns have obtained title to the Property by foreclosure or otherwise; or (iii) bound by any rent or additional rent, or any other sum of money, that Tenant may have paid for more than
>
>one month in advance to any prior Landlord; or (iv) bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease, or waiver of any of its provisions, made without Lender’s consent, as provided in the next Section. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Tenant agrees and acknowledges that Lender has no obligation to construct the improvements contemplated by the Lease.
> Section 9. AMENDMENT. Landlord and Tenant agree that the terms of the Lease constitute a material inducement to Lender’s entering into and performing this Agreement. Landlord and Tenant accordingly jointly and severally agree that they will not amend or modify the Lease, or waive the benefit of any of its material provisions, or in any way terminate or surrender the Lease except as expressly provided in the Lease, or this Agreement, or both, without Lender’s prior written approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed so long as no such action will adversely affect the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage and the Security Instruments. The parties also mutually agree that there will be no merger of the Lease without Lender’s prior written consent if Tenant acquires any other estate in the premises demised by the Lease. All amendments, modifications, substitutions, renewals, extensions, and replacements of the Lease will be and remain subordinated as provided in Section 3 above without the necessity of any further act of the Parties.
> Section 10. ESTOPPEL LETTERS. Whenever reasonably requested by Lender, Landlord and Tenant severally from time to time will execute and deliver to or at the direction of Lender, and without charge, a written certification of all of the following:
> (a) That the Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that the Lease is in full force and effect as modified, and stating the date and nature of each modification);
> (b) The date, if any, to which Rent and other sums payable under the Lease have been paid, and the amount of security deposit and prepaid rent, if any;
> (c) That no notice has been received by Tenant of any default which has not been cured except as to default specified in such certificate;
> (d) To Tenant’s knowledge, Landlord is not in default under the lease except as to default specified in such certificate, nor is there now any fact or condition which, with notice or lapse of time both, will become a default;
> (e) Such other customary matters as may be reasonably requested by Lender. Any such certificate may be relied upon by any actual or prospective purchaser, mortgagee or beneficiary under any deed or mortgage of the Property or any part thereof.

EXHIBIT “F”
SPECIAL STIPULATIONS
Provided that this Lease shall be in full force and effect and there shall then exist no Event of Default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms, covenants, and conditions contained herein which has not been remedied within the cure period in this Lease as of the date Tenant exercises its rights to expand hereunder or as of the date that the expansion of the Premises as provided hereunder is effective, Tenant shall have the option to expand the Premises (the “Expansion Option”) on the following terms and conditions:
(a) The Expansion Option shall be the right to add to the Premises up to approximately 25,000 rentable square feet located on the first floor of the Building and as depicted on EXHIBIT “K” attached hereto (the “Expansion Space”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. If Tenant desires to exercise the Expansion Option, Tenant must provide written notice to Landlord, at least ten (10) months prior to the last day of the fifth Lease Year, that it intends to exercise the Expansion Option so as to expand into all or any portion of the Expansion Space; provided, however, if Tenant elects to expand into less than all of the Expansion Space, the portion of the Expansion Space then remaining shall be of a size and location which is reasonably marketable and usable. Tenant’s delivery of written notice of its intent to exercise the Expansion Option, as described in the immediately preceding sentence, shall constitute an irrevocable commitment by Tenant to lease the portion of the Expansion Space specified in Tenant’s written notice.
(b) In the event Tenant so notifies Landlord of the exercise of the Expansion Option, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice of exercise of the Expansion Option an amendment of this Lease adding the Expansion Space to the Premises demised hereunder, which amendment shall provide: (i) a description and floor plate depiction of the Expansion Space, the rentable area of which shall be subject to verification measurement on the same basis as set forth in Section 1.1; (ii) additional annual Basic Rent shall be payable for such Expansion Space in the amount of the rentable area of the Expansion Space multiplied by the then current (as of the Expansion Space Commencement Date) Basic Rent per rentable square foot for the Premises, subject to adjustment as provided in the Basic Terms; (iii) the Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses Percentage for the Expansion Space shall be calculated by dividing the rentable square footage of the Expansion Space by the rentable square footage of the Building; (iv) the Expansion Space Commencement Date for the demise of the Expansion Space, which shall be as set forth in subsection (e) below; (v) the expiration date for the Expansion Space which shall be coterminous with the expiration date of the Lease as to the original Premises; (vi) confirmation that Tenant shall be entitled to retain and utilize and/or otherwise dispose of all then existing improvements in any such Expansion Space, in addition to the Expansion Space Improvement Allowance described below; (vii) any other provision that Landlord and Tenant may mutually agree upon; and (viii) an express ratification of all terms and conditions of the Lease not specifically amended by such amendment.
(c) So long as Miramar 75, L.L.C., or one of its Affiliates, is the Landlord, Landlord shall be the general contractor for construction of improvements for the Expansion Space (the “Expansion Space Improvements”). If Miramar 75, L.L.C., or one of its Affiliates, is not the Landlord under this Lease, Tenant may choose its own general contractor for the Expansion Space Improvements, which general contractor must be approved by Landlord in its reasonable discretion.
(d) The Expansion Space Improvements shall be constructed in accordance with and subject to the same provisions as set forth in Section 17 of this Lease (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 19.1), and if Tenant is entitled to choose the general contractor, the Expansion Space Improvements shall be deemed Alterations subject to the terms and conditions of Article 8 to the extent such terms and conditions are not covered by or not inconsistent with Section 17 (provided Tenant shall not be responsible for removing any such Alterations at the end of the Term); and
(e) For the purposes of this Section 19.1, the term “Expansion Space Commencement Date” shall mean the following:
(i) If Tenant is entitled to choose the general contractor for the Expansion Space Improvements, the term “Expansion Space Commencement Date” shall mean the earlier of (a) Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements or (b) the ninetieth (90th) day following the date of the issuance of all permits required in connection with the construction of such improvements (provided Tenant shall use its best efforts to obtain same promptly after the Expansion Space Commencement Date), subject to Force Majeure. Any occupancy of the Expansion Space by Tenant prior to the Expansion Space Commencement Date will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Lease, except for Tenant’s obligation to pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent.
(ii) If Landlord is the general contractor for the Expansion Space Improvements, the term “Expansion Space Commencement Date” shall mean the date on which Landlord achieves Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements. If Landlord is unable to achieve Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space and deliver the Expansion Space to Tenant on or before the date that is one hundred thirty (130) days after the first day of the sixth (6th) Lease Year (the “Expansion Space Delivery Date”) for reasons other than delays caused by Force Majeure or Tenant Delays, then Tenant shall receive a credit against the first accruing payments of Basic Rent due for the Expansion Space in an amount equal to two (2) days of per diem Basic Rent for each one (1) day after the Expansion Space Delivery Date until the actual date of Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements. Landlord will use commercially reasonable efforts to achieve Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements as quickly as possible. To the extent the Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space is delayed beyond the Expansion Space Delivery Date because of a Tenant Delay, the Expansion Space Commencement Date shall not be adjusted, and Tenant shall receive no credit against Basic Rent. If the delay in the Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space is caused by Force Majeure, the Expansion Space Delivery Date shall be adjusted day-
for-day for the period of existence of the Force Majeure, but Tenant shall receive no credit against Basic Rent with respect to such delay.
In the event that the date of Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements has not occurred by the date that is one hundred sixty (160) days after the first (1st) day of the sixth Lease Year, subject to extension for Tenant Delay and Force Majeure (the “Expansion Space Outside Delivery Date”), then Tenant may thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements, give written notice within ten (10) days after the Expansion Space Outside Delivery Date, to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to terminate the Lease with respect to the Expansion Space only (the “Tenant’s Expansion Space Termination Notice”). If the date of Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements has not occurred within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Expansion Space Termination Notice, this Lease will terminate, with respect to the Expansion Space only, automatically with no further action necessary by either party. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s delivery of Tenant’s Expansion Space Termination Notice, and if Tenant has not delivered Tenant’s Expansion Space Termination Notice within ten (10) days after the Expansion Space Outside Delivery Date, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Lease with respect to the Expansion Space pursuant to this paragraph.
If Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements has not occurred by the date that is one hundred ninety (190) days after the first (1st) day of the sixth Lease Year, subject to extension for Tenant Delay and Area-Wide Force Majeure (the “Second Expansion Space Outside Delivery Date”), then Tenant may thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements, give written notice within ten (10) days after the Second Expansion Space Outside Delivery Date, to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to terminate this Lease with respect to the Expansion Space only (the “Tenant’s Second Expansion Space Termination Notice”). If Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements has not occurred within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Second Expansion Space Termination Notice, this Lease will terminate, with respect to the Expansion Space only, automatically with no further action necessary by either party. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s delivery of Tenant’s Second Expansion Space Termination Notice, and if Tenant has not delivered Tenant’s Second Expansion Space Termination Notice within ten (10) days after the Second Expansion Space Outside Delivery Date, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Lease with respect to the Expansion Space pursuant to this paragraph.
Tenant’s rent credit and Tenant’s termination rights, as described in this subparagraph (ii), shall constitute Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedies in the event that the date of Substantial Completion of the Expansion Space Improvements does not occur on or before the Expansion Space Delivery Date, the Expansion Space Outside Delivery Date, or the Second Expansion Space Outside Delivery Date, as the case may be.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 19.1(e)(ii) shall only apply if Landlord is the general contractor for the Expansion Space Improvements.
(f) Landlord shall give Tenant an improvement allowance for Tenant’s Improvements to the Expansion Space of (a) $25.00 per rentable square foot of the Expansion Space (exclusive of Landlord’s Improvements in accordance with Section 17.1.1) if the Expansion Space has not been previously built out for occupancy for another tenant (i.e., “first generation space”), or (b) $10.00 per rentable square foot of the Expansion Space if the Expansion Space has been previously built out for occupancy by another tenant (i.e., “second generation space”) (the “Expansion Space Improvement Allowance”). With respect to first generation space, said Expansion Space Improvement Allowance shall be in addition to Landlord’s Improvements to the Expansion Space (which shall be in all material respect to the Landlord’s Improvements for the Premises described in Section 17 and shall satisfy the Landlord’s Improvements Standards described therein). With respect to second generation space, (i) such Improvement Allowance shall be in addition to all such Landlord’s Improvements and all other improvements then existing in such second generation space and (ii) Landlord shall be responsible for the costs of redemising the Expansion Space (but not for demolition costs, which shall be at Tenant’s expense). Any costs for improvements to the Expansion Space in excess of the applicable Expansion Space Improvement Allowance shall be paid by Tenant. Tenant shall be entitled to retain the balance of the Expansion Space Improvement Allowance, to the extent costs for improvements to the Expansion Space shall be less than such Expansion Space Improvement Allowance. Landlord shall pay the entire amount of such Expansion Space Improvement Allowance to Tenant on or before the Expansion Space Commencement Date for the demise of such Expansion Space.
19.2 Right of Notice
(a) At all times during the Term (including any Renewal Terms), provided that this Lease is in full force and there shall then exist no Event of Default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions herein contained as of the date of Tenant’s exercise of its rights under this Section 19.2 or the date of Tenant’s expansion as provided herein, then, Landlord shall advise Tenant of any current or pending available space in the Building, at the earlier of (i) the date as of which such space becomes vacant or (ii) the date which shall be the later of the date nine (9) months prior to the termination of any then existing lease or the expiration of any renewal options provided therein (such space being herein referred to as the “Notice Space” and Landlord’s written notice to Tenant thereof being herein referred to as a “Notice of Intent to Lease”). Tenant shall have the right to notify Landlord in writing that Tenant is electing to expand the Premises into an area comprised of all or a portion of such Notice Space (“Tenant’s Election”) at any time before the date Landlord provides Tenant with a Landlord’s Notice (as defined below) with respect to all or a portion of such Notice Space, at which time Tenant’s rights pursuant to this subsection (a) shall cease as to the space covered by the Notice of Intent to Lease, subject to the provisions of Section 19(b) below; provided, however, if Tenant elects to expand into less than all of the Notice Space, the portion of the Notice Space then remaining shall be of a size and location which is reasonably marketable and usable. Tenant’s delivery of Tenant’s Election to Landlord shall constitute an irrevocable commitment by Tenant to lease the Notice Space that is the subject of Tenant’s Election. At
any time prior to Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Election, Landlord shall be free to enter into lease negotiations for the Notice Space with such third party or any other third party, free of any rights of Tenant hereunder, subject to Tenant’s rights described in the following paragraph.
(b) At any time prior to Tenant’s having exercised its rights under Section 19.2(a) with respect to any Notice Space, if Landlord enters into a letter of intent with a third party to lease such Notice Space, Landlord shall promptly provide written notice (“Landlord’s Notice”) and a copy of such letter of intent to Tenant. Tenant will then have fifteen (15) days after its receipt of Landlord’s Notice to provide written notice to Landlord that Tenant intends to lease such Notice Space, which written notice shall constitute an irrevocable commitment by Tenant to lease all (and not a portion) of the Notice Space that is the subject of such letter of intent described in Landlord’s Notice on the same terms and conditions as currently in effect under this Lease. Tenant’s failure to provide such written notice within fifteen (15) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Notice will constitute a waiver of Tenant’s rights under this Section 19.2(b), and in such event, Landlord will be free to enter into a lease with the third party for such Notice Space, free of any rights of Tenant hereunder; provided, however, notwithstanding that the Landlord may enter into a lease with a third party with respect to such Notice Space following the expiration of Tenant’s rights thereto, Landlord shall again furnish to Tenant a Notice of Intent to Lease with respect to the Notice Space on the earlier of (i) the date as of which such Notice Space shall again become vacant, or (ii) the later of the date that is nine (9) months prior to the termination of any then existing lease affecting such Notice Space or the expiration of any renewal options thereunder, and Tenant shall again have the rights with respect thereto provided herein.
(c) The following provisions shall apply to Tenant’s lease of any Notice Space pursuant to this Section 19.2:
(i) Landlord shall deliver any Notice Space to be leased by Tenant pursuant to this Section 19.2 on the date that such Notice Space is vacated by the then existing tenant; provided, however, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts (including without limitation bringing an eviction action) to cause any such existing tenant to vacate such Notice Space and, if such existing tenant does not vacate such Notice Space within one hundred twenty (120) days after the termination of the then existing lease, Tenant may rescind its commitment to lease such Notice Space;
(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the term of the Lease for any Notice Space shall be at least five (5) years from the Notice Space Commencement Date (as defined below); accordingly, in the event that there should be less than five (5) years remaining on the Term of this Lease as of the Notice Space Commencement Date, then Tenant’s exercise of its expansion rights as contained in this Section 19.2 shall be conditioned upon Tenant, at Tenant’s option, either (a) simultaneously exercising its Option to Renew as contained in Section 1.2.5 hereof, or (b) simultaneously extending the then Term of this Lease to a date which is coterminous with a date which is five (5) years after the Notice Space Commencement Date;
(iii) If Tenant exercises its right to lease any Notice Space, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s receipt of such notice an amendment of this Lease adding the Notice Space to the Premises demised hereunder, which amendment shall provide: (a) a description and floor plate depiction of the Notice Space, the rentable area of which shall be subject to verification measurement on the same basis as set forth in Section 1.1; (b) additional annual Basic Rent shall be payable for such Notice Space in the amount of the rentable area of the Notice Space multiplied by the then current (as of the Notice Space Commencement Date) Basic Rent per rentable square foot for the Premises, subject to adjustment as provided in the Basic Terms; (c) the Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses Percentage for the Notice Space, which shall be calculated by dividing the rentable square footage of the Notice Space by the rentable square footage of the Building; (d) the expiration date for the Notice Space, which shall be coterminous with the expiration date of the Lease as to the original Premises, subject to the immediately preceding subparagraph (ii); (e) confirmation that Tenant shall be entitled to retain and utilize and/or otherwise dispose of all then existing improvements in any such Notice Space, in addition to the Notice Space Improvement Allowance described below; (f) the Notice Space Commencement Date (as defined below); (g) any other provision that Landlord and Tenant may mutually agree upon; and (h) an express ratification of all terms and conditions of the Lease not specifically amended by such amendment; and
(iv) Landlord shall give Tenant an improvement allowance for the Notice Space Improvements (as defined below) in the same amounts and manner described in Section 19.1(f) (the “Notice Space Improvement Allowance”).
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant has failed to exercise an Option to Renew within the notice period described in Section 1.2.5(d), all of Tenant’s notice rights as described in this Section 19.2 shall automatically terminate with no further action necessary by either party.
(e) So long as Miramar 75, L.L.C., or one of its Affiliates, is the Landlord, Landlord shall be the general contractor for construction of improvements for the Notice Space (the “Notice Space Improvements”). If Miramar 75, L.L.C., or one of its Affiliates, is not the Landlord under this Lease, Tenant may choose its own general contractor for the Notice Space Improvements, which general contractor must be approved by Landlord in its reasonable discretion.
(f) The Notice Space Improvements shall be constructed in accordance with and subject to the same provisions as set forth in Section 17 of this Lease (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 19.2), and if Tenant is entitled to choose the general contractor, the Notice Space Improvements shall be deemed Alterations subject to the terms and conditions of Article 8 to the extent such terms and conditions are not covered by or not inconsistent with Section 17; and
(g) For the purposes of this Section 19.2, the term “Notice Space Commencement Date” shall mean the following:
(i) If Tenant is entitled to choose the general contractor for the Notice Space Improvements, the term “Notice Space Commencement Date” shall mean the earlier of (a) Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements or (b) the ninetieth (90th) day following the date of the issuance of all permits required in connection with the construction of such improvements (provided Tenant shall use its best efforts to obtain same as promptly as possible, subject to Force Majeure.
(ii) If Landlord is the general contractor for the Notice Space Improvements, the term “Notice Space Rent Commencement Date” shall mean the date on which Landlord achieves Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements. If Landlord is unable to achieve Substantial Completion of the Notice Space and deliver the Notice Space to Tenant on or before the date that is one hundred thirty (130) days after the later of the mutual execution of the amendment to the lease described in subparagraph (iii) above or the vacation of the Notice Space by any tenant (the “Notice Space Delivery Date”) for reasons other than delays caused by Force Majeure or Tenant Delays, then Tenant shall receive a credit against the first accruing payments of Basic Rent due for the Notice Space in an amount equal to two (2) days of per diem Basic Rent for each one (1) day after the Notice Space Delivery Date until the actual date of Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements. Landlord will use commercially reasonable efforts to achieve Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements as quickly as possible. To the extent the Substantial Completion of the Notice Space is delayed beyond the Notice Space Delivery Date because of a Tenant Delay, the Notice Space Commencement Date shall not be adjusted, and Tenant shall receive no credit against Basic Rent. If the delay in Substantial Completion of the Notice Space is caused by Force Majeure, the Notice Space Delivery Date shall be adjusted day-for-day for the period of existence of the Force Majeure, but Tenant shall receive no credit against Basic Rent with respect to such delay.
In the event that the date of Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements has not occurred by the date that is one hundred sixty (160) days after the Notice Space Commencement Date, subject to extension for Tenant Delay and Force Majeure (the “Notice Space Outside Delivery Date”), then Tenant may thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements, give written notice within ten (10) days after the Notice Space Outside Delivery Date, to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to terminate the Lease with respect to the Notice Space only (the “Tenant’s Notice Space Termination Notice”). If the date of Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements has not occurred within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Notice Space Termination Notice, this Lease will terminate, with respect to such Notice Space only, automatically with no further action necessary by either party. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s delivery of Tenant’s Notice Space Termination Notice, and if Tenant has not delivered Tenant’s Notice Space Termination Notice within ten (10) days after the Notice Space Outside Delivery Date, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Lease with respect to such Notice Space pursuant to this paragraph.
If Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements has not occurred by the date that is one hundred ninety (190) days after the Notice Space Commencement Date subject to extension for Tenant Delay and Area-Wide Force Majeure (the “Second Notice Space Outside Delivery Date”), then Tenant may thereafter, but prior to Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements, give written notice within ten (10) days after the Second Notice Space Outside Delivery Date, to Landlord of Tenant’s desire to terminate this Lease with respect to such Notice Space only (the “Tenant’s Second Notice Space Termination Notice”). If Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements has not occurred within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Second Notice Space Termination Notice, this Lease will terminate, with respect to such Notice Space only, automatically with no further action necessary by either party. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s delivery of Tenant’s Second Notice Space Termination Notice, and if Tenant has not delivered Tenant’s Second Notice Space Termination Notice within ten (10) days after the Second Notice Space Outside Delivery Date, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate this Lease with respect to such Notice Space pursuant to this paragraph.
Tenant’s rent credit and Tenant’s termination rights, as described in this subparagraph (ii), shall constitute Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedies in the event that the date of Substantial Completion of the Notice Space Improvements does not occur on or before the Notice Space Delivery Date, the Notice Space Outside Delivery Date, or the Second Notice Space Outside Delivery Date, as the case may be.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 19.2(g)(ii) shall only apply if Landlord is the general contractor for the Notice Space Improvements.
19.3 Intentionally Deleted
19.4 Acceleration of Expiration Date by Tenant
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant may modify and accelerate the expiration date of the Term of this Lease to a date which is on or after the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Commencement Date (the “Accelerated Expiration Date”), so that the term of this Lease shall expire on the Accelerated Expiration Date, by (a) providing Landlord with written notice on or before twelve (12) months prior to Tenant’s proposed Accelerated Expiration Date (the “Notification Date”), of its intent to modify the term of this Lease so that this Lease shall expire as of the Accelerated Expiration Date, and (b) paying on or before the Accelerated Expiration Date a fee (the “Termination Fee”) in consideration for Landlord’s agreement to modify the term of this Lease in an amount equal to: (i) the Tenant’s Improvements Allowance paid or payable by Landlord, and all real estate commissions paid by Landlord in connection with this Lease (each times a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full calendar months remaining in the initial term as of the Accelerated Expiration Date, and the denominator of which is 180), and (ii) six (6) months’ Basic Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses (using the Basic Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses in effect for the month in which the Accelerated Expiration date occurs) for the Premises (including any Expansion Space and/or Notice Space leased by Tenant) for which the Term
is being accelerated. The Termination Fee shall be due and payable by Tenant on or before the Accelerated Expiration Date. Tenant’s notice will state with specificity Tenant’s Accelerated Expiration Date. Failure of Tenant to either (a) provide written notice of its intent to accelerate on or before the Notification Date or (b) pay the Termination Fee due hereunder on or before the Accelerated Expiration Date, shall constitute a waiver of Tenant’s right to accelerate the expiration date hereunder. Tenant may accelerate the expiration of this Lease for less than the entire Premises; provided, however, if Tenant elects to accelerate the expiration date for less than all of the Premises, Tenant may only reduce the Premises by full floor increments. In the event of such partial acceleration of the termination date, the Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease, modifying the Basic Terms in proportion to the reduction of the Premises, and the Termination Fee set forth above will be prorated based on that portion of the Premises for which Tenant is electing to accelerate the expiration date of this Lease. The Termination Fee payable by Tenant hereunder shall not be deemed to be Rent, but rather, shall be a fee paid to Landlord in consideration of Landlord’s agreement to permit the acceleration of the expiration date of the Term of this Lease as provided in this Section 19.4.
19.5 Roof Rights.
Subject to the approval of all applicable governmental authorities and agencies, Landlord agrees to permit Tenant to install, use and operate one or more satellite antennas or dishes on the rooftop of the Building. Landlord shall make available to Tenant, for Tenant’s use such space on the roof of the Building as Tenant shall from time to time require for no rent or other charge whatsoever therefor. Tenant’s use of the roof of the Building shall be on a non-exclusive basis. In connection with Tenant’s use of the roof of the Building, Landlord shall make available to Tenant access to the roof for the construction, installation, maintenance, repair, operation and use of such antenna equipment, as well as reasonable space in the Building to run electrical and telecommunications conduit from such equipment to the Premises. Tenant shall furnish to Landlord copies of its plans and specifications for such equipment, prior to the commencement of any construction and/or installation thereof, and any such construction shall be Alterations subject to the terms and conditions of Article 8. Such plans and specifications shall include details on the means of attaching such equipment to the roof of the Building, shall be prepared by qualified and licensed engineers and show all other structural, aesthetic, mechanical and electrical details related to such equipment and the installation thereof. Landlord shall allow Tenant to run conduit or cabling from the Premises to the antenna or satellite in accordance with the Landlord approved plans. Further, to the extent that any such antenna or dish may be visible at street level, at Landlord’s request, such plans shall provide for the screening of such equipment, if necessary, with material compatible with the exterior of the Building and reasonably acceptable to Landlord. Any and all roof or wall penetrations must be specifically approved in writing by Landlord, and such work must be performed so as to avoid any possibility of voiding or affecting any roof warranties in favor of Landlord. Tenant shall have the responsibility to secure all necessary approvals from state, federal and other governmental authorities to construct, operate and maintain such equipment and all structural, electrical or other mechanical changes to the Building. All such equipment shall be constructed and maintained by Tenant in accordance with all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations and in compliance with the requirements of any insurers of the Building and in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations of Landlord relating to the roof. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all loss, claim, damage and expense arising out of Tenant’s failure to comply with this Section (including, but not limited to, any damage to the roof as a result of such construction, maintenance, or operation of such equipment), subject always to the mutual release and
waiver of subrogation provisions of this Lease. All work in connection with such equipment shall be done by Tenant as an Alteration under the Lease. Tenant shall give Landlord any notice that Tenant receives from third parties that any of the equipment is or may be in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation. Tenant shall pay all taxes of any kind or nature whatsoever levied upon said equipment and all licensing fees, franchise taxes and other charges and expenses and all other costs of any nature whatsoever related to the construction, ownership, maintenance and operation of said equipment. All power or other utilities required for such equipment shall be provided by Landlord at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, provided same are separately metered. Upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, Tenant shall remove all of such equipment within fifteen (15) days following such termination or expiration (without the same constituting a holdover occupancy), and Landlord shall allow Tenant reasonable access to the Building to accomplish such removal. Tenant shall fully repair and restore any damage to the Building occasioned thereby, including, but not limited to any damage or penetrations to the roof occasioned by such removal, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Nothing herein shall prevent Landlord from allowing other tenants in the Building or third parties providing communications services to other tenants in the Building from using the roof and other areas of the Building for the development, installation, and operation of similar equipment or facilities, provided such facilities do not materially interfere with the operation of Tenant’s equipment pursuant to the rights granted hereunder. Landlord agrees that it shall not permit third parties to use the roof and other areas of the Building for the installation and operation of similar equipment or facilities if such third parties do not use such equipment to provide services to tenants in the Building, without the prior consent of Tenant to any such third party usage.
19.6 Storage Area
Provided that there then exists no Event of Default on the part of Tenant under this Lease, Landlord shall provide to Tenant, for no additional Rent, storage space in the Building core area or in unoccupied areas of the Building up to a maximum square footage determined by Landlord it its reasonable discretion, based on and subject to the availability of such space. Such storage space will be unairconditioned and will be leased in “AS IS” shell condition, except for fire sprinklers. The location of such storage space shall be determined by Landlord, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, and Landlord may relocate such storage space to other locations in the Building, as Landlord may determine. Tenant shall be responsible for maintaining and cleaning such storage space, and shall insure all personal property stored therein under Tenant’s property insurance. All personal property stored in such storage area shall be at Tenant’s sole risk. In the event that the storage area is needed by Landlord for occupancy by any other tenant or potential tenant in the Building, Landlord may terminate Tenant’s rights to the storage area upon thirty (30) days prior written notice given to Tenant. If Tenant has not completely vacated and fully repaired and restored such storage area within the thirty (30) day period described in the immediately preceding sentence, Landlord may remove and store Tenant’s personal property stored in such storage area, and fully repair and restore such storage area, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all expenses incurred with respect to such removal, storage, repairs, and restoration, immediately upon receipt of an invoice therefor.
19.7 Land Acquisition Contingency
Landlord hereby represents and warrants to Tenant that Landlord will not own the Land as of the Effective Date. Notwithstanding that Landlord is under contract pursuant to that certain Agreement for the Purchase and Sale of Real Property dated November 19, 1999, as extended by that certain letter agreement executed by Opus South Corporation on January 6, 2000, and as amended by
that certain First Amendment to Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Real Property dated January 21, 2000, that certain Second Amendment to Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Real Property dated March 21, 2000, and that certain Third Amendment to Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Real Property executed by Opus South Corporation on March 25, 2000 (collectively, the “Contract”) by and between Opus South Corporation (an Affiliate of Landlord) and Monarch Towne Center, Ltd.

In the event of any continuing default by Landlord of its obligations under this Lease, after the expiration of the cure period set forth in Section 14.5, Tenant, after giving Landlord an additional five (5) business days written notice of such continued default and Landlord’s failure to cure such default within said five (5) business day period, may take any and all action reasonably necessary to cure such default by Landlord, and Landlord shall thereafter be obligated to reimburse Tenant for the costs reasonably incurred in connection therewith within fifteen (15) days following receipt of Tenant’s invoice together with supporting backup documentation (including paid receipts) as reasonably required by Landlord. All such amounts expended by Tenant shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate from the date of Tenant’s invoice for the same until the full repayment of such costs by Landlord. If Landlord fails to pay such amounts within said fifteen (15) day period, then Tenant, upon an additional five (5) Business Days notice to Landlord, and Landlord’s failure to pay such amounts within said five (5) Business Days, shall have the right to offset such sums against the Basic Rent due under this Lease provided, however, the monthly amount of such offset (together with any offset to which Tenant is entitled under Section 18.8) shall not exceed the greater of (i) 25% of the monthly Basic Rent payable by Tenant hereunder, or (ii) an amount of the monthly Basic Rent payable hereunder which is necessary to fully amortize, on a straight line basis, the amounts owed by Landlord to Tenant hereunder over the remaining Term of the Lease, together with interest at the Maximum Rate.

in a manner to be mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant, which upgrades shall be at Landlord’s expense as a portion of Landlord’s Work. Tenant shall have no obligation to restore the Premises at the end of the Term as to any construction related to such internal dedicated staircase.
19.11 Right of Initial Offer
Upon Substantial Completion of the “shell” construction of the Building by Landlord, prior to marketing the Property for sale, Landlord shall offer to sell the Property to Tenant at a stated sales price by providing written notice to Tenant containing the basic terms of such proposed sale (the “Offer Notice”). Tenant shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Offer Notice to give written notice to Landlord of its desire to purchase the Property at the price and upon the basic terms stated in the Offer Notice (the “Offer”). Such Offer will include a purchase and sale agreement executed by Tenant containing all of the terms and conditions pursuant to which Tenant would agree to purchase the Property (the “Purchase Agreement”). If Tenant fails to give such written notice on a timely basis, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its Right of Initial Offer described herein, and the Right of Initial Offer shall terminate automatically with no further action necessary by either party. Within ten (10) days after the date of the receipt of the Offer (the “Response Period”), Landlord shall either accept the Offer by delivering an executed Purchase Agreement to Tenant or reject the Offer by providing written notice to Tenant stating the reasons for such rejection (the “Rejection Notice”). Failure of Landlord to either execute such Purchase Agreement or deliver the Rejection Notice within the Response Period shall be deemed a rejection of the Offer. If Landlord accepts the Offer, Tenant shall have an additional thirty (30) days to conduct due diligence relating to the Property. During said thirty (30) due diligence period, if Tenant determines in its sole discretion that the Property is unsuitable for its needs, Tenant may elect to terminate the Purchase Agreement by delivering written notice to Landlord. Should Tenant elect to so terminate the Purchase Agreement, its Right of Initial Offer shall terminate automatically with no further action necessary by either party. If Tenant does not terminate the Purchase Agreement within the thirty (30) day due diligence period, then the sale transaction shall be consummated in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. If Tenant defaults in its obligation to close the transaction on the terms contained in the Purchase Agreement then the Right of Initial Offer shall terminate automatically with no further action necessary by either party.
If Landlord rejects or is deemed to have rejected the Offer for failure to respond on a timely basis, then Landlord and Tenant will negotiate in good faith for a period not to exceed more than ten (10) days after the expiration of the Response Period and attempt to agree upon the terms of the a sale and purchase agreement mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant. In the event that Landlord and Tenant, after negotiating in good faith, are unable to achieve the terms of the sale and purchase and execute a mutually acceptable Purchase Agreement within such ten (10) day period, Tenant’s Right of Initial Offer shall terminate automatically with no further action necessary by either party.
Time is of the essence with respect to each of the time periods specified in this Section 19.11. The Right of Initial Offer described herein shall be personal to the Tenant and may not be assigned by the Tenant to any third party without the prior consent of Landlord, which consent may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 18.25.
19.12 State and Municipal Incentives
Subject to the immediately following sentence, to the extent that Landlord or Tenant receives any monetary or development incentives relating to the Property from the State of Florida, Broward County, or City of Miramar, including without limitation, Job Growth (County), and QTI and Road Fund (State) incentives (collectively, “Incentives”), and (i) to the extent Tenant receives any such Incentives directly, Tenant shall be entitled to retain all such Incentives on its behalf, for its benefit, (ii) to the extent Landlord receives any such Incentives, in cash, Landlord shall promptly pay such cash Incentives to Tenant and (iii) to the extent that Landlord receives any Incentives in the form of impact fee credits, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a credit against the amounts of initial Basic Rent payable by Tenant, equal to (a) the amount of impact fee credits received by Landlord, multiplied by (b) the percentage obtained by dividing (i) the number of rentable square feet of the Premises at the time such impact fee credits are received by Landlord by (ii) the number of total rentable square feet in the Building.
19.13 Landlord’s Lien Subordination
Landlord hereby agrees that it hereby waives its statutory or common law lien rights on Tenant’s personal property for unpaid rent. Without limiting the self-executing nature of the foregoing, Landlord agrees to execute and deliver such waiver documentation as may be reasonably required or requested by Tenant in connection with the waiver described in this paragraph.
19.14 Title
(a) Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that, as of the date Landlord purchases the Land pursuant to the Contract, the Land shall be free from any and all liens, claims, and encumbrances except for the Permitted Encumbrances;
(b) Tenant acknowledges that the reservations for canals and drainage described in subparagraphs (c)(i) and (c)(ii) of Section 19.7 may remain Permitted Encumbrances, and that same shall not constitute a breach or default by Landlord of its representation and warranty contained in this Section 19.14. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the exercise of such reservations actually and materially disrupts Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the Premises or Common Area, same shall constitute a Landlord’s Default under Section 14.5 hereof; provided, however, to the extent that such exercise does actually and materially disrupt Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the Premises or Common Area, including, without limitation, by way of any consequential loss of parking, Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord’s cure of such default shall be the taking of all commercially reasonable measures to replace or reconstruct those portions of the Premises or the Common Area so disrupted within a commercially reasonable period following the disruption.

(e) Item 6 of the Basic Terms is hereby amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“6. Initial Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses Percentage: 100% (see Article III).” |
(f) The next to last sentence of Section 1.1 is hereby amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“In the event that the rentable area of the Premises, as so determined, shall be more than 130,600 rentable square feet, for purposes of this Lease, the rentable area of the Premises shall nevertheless be determined not to exceed 130,600 rentable square feet; if the rentable area of the Premises, as so determined, shall be less than 120,000 rentable square feet, then within ten (10) Business Days following Tenant’s receipt of the binding determination of such rentable area, Tenant shall have the right by written notice to Landlord to terminate this Lease.” |
(g) The first paragraph of Section 1.2.2 of the Lease is hereby amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“Landlord will (a) achieve by or before April 2, 2001 (the “Installation Delivery Date”), subject to extension for Force Majeure and Tenant Delay, the level of completion (the “Pre-Installation Completion”) of the Landlord’s Improvements and Tenant’s Improvements required so that Tenant may thereupon immediately commence the installation of the modular furniture contemplated by the Interior CDs (the “Modular Furniture”) and continuously and uninterruptedly pursue such installation to completion, and (b) achieve Substantial Completion of the Tenant’s Improvements and tender possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before the Delivery Date, subject to extension for Force Majeure and Tenant Delay. If (a) Landlord is unable to achieve Pre-Installation Completion and to permit Tenant to commence installation of the Modular Furniture on or before the Installation Delivery Date or (b) Landlord is unable to achieve Substantial Completion of the Tenant’s Improvements and tender possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before the Delivery Date, this Lease remains in full force and effect and Landlord is not liable to Tenant for any resulting loss or damage, subject however, to the terms of this Section 1.2.2. To the extent the date of Pre-Installation Completion does not occur on or before the Installation Delivery Date for reasons other than delays caused by Force Majeure or Tenant Delays (a “Pre-Installation Delay”) then the Substantial Completion Date shall be deemed postponed one day for each day of Pre-Installation Delay. To the extent the Substantial Completion Date does not occur on or before the Delivery Date for reasons other then delays caused by Force Majeure or Tenant Delays (a “Substantial Completion Delay”), then Tenant shall receive a credit against the first accruing payments of Basic Rent due hereunder in an amount equal to two (2) days per diem Basic Rent for each one (1) day after the Delivery Date until the Substantial Completion Date actually occurs. |
3
To the extent the Substantial Completion Date occurs later than the Delivery Date because of Tenant Delay, the Commencement Date shall be the date that the Substantial Completion Date would have occurred but for the Tenant Delay, and Tenant shall receive no credit against Basic Rent with respect to the days of Tenant Delay. To the extent that the Substantial Completion Date is delayed because of Tenant Delay, but nevertheless occurs on or before the Delivery Date, the Commencement Date shall be the Substantial Completion Date, and the Rent Commencement Date shall be the date fourteen (14) days after the Delivery Date, provided, however, Tenant shall pay Pre-Delivery Date Rent in accordance with Section 2.1 below. If a Pre-Installation Delay or a Substantial Completion Delay, as the case may be, is caused by Force Majeure, the Installation Delivery Date and the Delivery Date, as the case may be, shall be adjusted day-for-day for the period of existence of the Force Majeure, but Tenant shall receive no credit against Basic Rent therefor.” |
(h) The last paragraph of Section 1.2.2 of the Lease is hereby amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“Tenant’s rent credit, Tenant’s termination rights, and Tenant’s right to reimbursement, as described in this Section 1.2.2, shall constitute Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedies in the event that Pre-Installation Completion does not occur on or before the Installation Delivery Date, and/or the Commencement Date does not occur on or before the Delivery Date, Outside Delivery Date or the Second Outside Delivery Date, as the case may be.” |
(i) The second (2nd) and third (3rd) paragraphs of Section 2.1 of the Lease are hereby amended and deleted, in their entirety, and replaced with the following: |
“Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply: |
(a) For the period commencing on the Rent Commencement Date up to but not including the first (1st) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date (the “Reduced Rent Period”), Tenant shall pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent for the third (3rd floor) of the Premises, consisting of approximately 44,267 rentable square feet; provided, however, if the Substantial Completion Date occurs before the Delivery Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all Additional Rent and fifty percent (50%) of Basic Rent for the third (3rd) floor of the Premises on a per diem basis, for each day of the period commencing on the Substantial Completion Date and ending on the day immediately preceding the Delivery Date (the “Pre-Delivery Date Rent”). In this event, from and after the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant will pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent for the third (3rd) floor of the Premises in accordance with this Section 2.1 as if the Substantial Completion Date for the third (3rd) floor of the Premises was the Delivery Date; that is, notwithstanding that the Substantial Completion Date for |
4
the third (3rd) floor shall have occurred prior to the Delivery Date and that Tenant shall have paid Pre-Delivery Date Rent to Landlord, Tenant shall have no liability whatsoever to pay Basic Rent or Additional Rent for the third (3rd) floor for the period from the Delivery Date to the Rent Commencement Date. |
(b) For the period commencing on the fourteenth (14th) day after the Substantial Completion Date and ending on the last day of the Reduced Rent Period, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all Additional Rent and fifty percent (50%) of Basic Rent for the second (2nd) floor of the Premises, consisting of approximately 44,267 rentable square feet. | |
(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, during the Reduced Rent Period, Tenant shall pay no Basic Rent or Additional Rent for the first (1st) floor of the Premises; provided, however, if Tenant or any subtenant or assignee of Tenant shall occupy any portion of the first floor for the purpose of conducting business during the Reduced Rent Period, or if Tenant collects rent of any kind from any assignee or subtenant of Tenant, then commencing as of the Tenant’s or any subtenant’s or assignee’s occupancy (as the case may be) or the date rent shall commence under any sublease or assignment (as the case may be) of or for any such portion, Tenant shall pay only Additional Rent (including a pro rata portion of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses) allocable to such portion of the first floor. | |
(d) From and after the first (1st) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date (i.e., the last day of the Reduced Rent Period), Tenant shall pay full Basic Rent and Additional Rent for the entire Premises in accordance with Item 4 of the Basic Terms of this Lease.” |
(j) The first paragraph of Section 4.7 is hereby amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“Tenant shall be entitled to exclusive use of all parking in the parking area serving the Property (the “Parking Area”), as depicted on EXHIBIT “M” attached hereto and hereby made a part hereof (the “Site Plan”) and shall be entitled to selectively identify certain spaces within the Parking Area as reserved spaces or visitor spaces. The total number of parking spaces (including handicapped spaces) in the Parking Area is 824. All parking spaces shall be provided to Tenant at no charge throughout the Term of this Lease, including any Renewal Term. Landlord will provide handicapped parking spaces for the Building in accordance with applicable laws.” |
(k) Subsection 17.3.6(a) is hereby amended, in its entirety to read as follows: |
“(a) Design. By no later than October 26, 2000, Tenant shall have prepared Interior CDs for Landlord’s review and approval. The Interior CDs shall be in a form sufficient so that (i) all required building permits can be obtained, based |
5
upon submittal of the Interior CDs to the appropriate governmental authorities and (ii) upon the proper completion of (A) the Tenant’s Improvements and (B) installation of the Modular Furniture contemplated by the Interior CDs, a required certificate of occupancy can be issued by the governmental authorities having jurisdiction.” |
(l) The following language is hereby added to the end of subsection 17.3.6(d): |
“Promptly after Substantial Completion of the Tenant’s Improvements, Landlord shall assign to Tenant all building permits applicable to the Tenant’s Improvements (the “Permits”), to the extent the Permits are assignable. Other than as otherwise described in this subparagraph, and whether or not the Permits are assignable, Landlord shall have no obligations or liabilities whatsoever after the Substantial Completion Date relating to the Permits; provided, however, after the Substantial Completion Date, Landlord shall take no affirmative steps to terminate the Permits.” |
(m) The first sentence of Section 17.9 is hereby amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“Landlord agrees to provide to Tenant (i) an allowance with respect to the preparation of the Plans, in the amount of $8,853.40 (the “Design Allowance”), and (ii) an allowance with respect to the construction of the Tenant’s Improvements in accordance with the Construction Price, in the amount of $3,131,349.00, calculated on the basis of $24.38 per rentable square foot (the “Tenant Improvement Allowance”).” |
(n) Section 19.8 is amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“Landlord agrees that at least thirty (30) days prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord shall pay to Tenant a moving contribution in the amount of $2.96 per rentable square foot of the Premises (the “Moving Contribution”); such Moving Contribution shall be in addition to and not a part of the Tenant Improvement Allowance. | |
Landlord further agrees that by or before the Substantial Completion Date, Landlord shall pay to Tenant a lighting contribution in the amount of $1.00 per rentable square foot (i.e., $128,447.00) (the “Lighting Contribution”). To the extent that the cost of purchasing light fixtures within the Premises shall exceed the Lighting Contribution, Tenant shall be liable for the difference.” |
6
(o) The definition of “Substantial Completion” in Exhibit “A” is amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“ ‘Substantial Completion’ means the completion of the Landlord’s Improvements and the Tenant’s Improvements, as evidenced by the issuance by the City or other appropriate authority of a conditional or unconditional certificate of occupancy or similar document for the Premises (a “CO”), permitting Tenant’s occupancy for the Permitted Uses (or, if a CO has not been issued, completion of the Landlord’s Improvements and Tenant’s Improvements to that stage that a CO would have been issued only but for the failure of Tenant to have installed the Modular Furniture), including without limitation (i) the completion of all detail work that is the responsibility of Landlord (except for minor aesthetic items that, in the reasonable discretion of Tenant, do not impede the full use of the Premises and Common Areas for the Permitted Uses) and (ii) the completion of all Building Systems and components, including, without limitation, all mechanical, electrical and HVAC systems and the installation of elevators so that same shall be fully operational in the Building and the Premises (except for work being performed by Tenant), and Tenant can fully and completely occupy the Premises for its Permitted Uses (subject to the provisions of this paragraph relating to Tenant’s failure to install the Modular Furniture). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Substantial Completion shall not be deemed to have been achieved unless the Punch List shall reflect that less than five (5%) percent, in terms of cost, of the Tenant’s Improvements remain uncompleted, and Landlord shall have completed at least ninety-five (95%) percent, in terms of cost, of all Common Area improvements in the Building and Property that affect the Tenant, including, without limitation, Building lobby and parking lot, and entrances thereto, and corridors and restrooms (using finishes as prescribed by Tenant and in accordance with the terms of this Lease).” | |||
(p) The following definition is hereby added to Exhibit “A”: | |||
“ ‘Substantial Completion Date’ means the later of (x) the date as of which Landlord achieves Substantial Completion and delivers the Premises to Tenant and (y) the date thirty-one (31) days following the Installation Delivery Date.” |
(q) The definition of “Tenant Delay” in Exhibit “A” attached to the Lease is hereby amended, in its entirety, to read as follow: |
“ ‘Tenant Delay’ or ‘Tenant Delays’ means any delay(s) caused or contributed to by Tenant, including, without limitation, any delay(s) expressly deemed as Tenant Delay or Tenant Delays in this Lease, provided, however, that any delay in the issuance of a CO as a consequence of Tenant’s failure to install the Modular Furniture in accordance with the Interior CDs shall not constitute a Tenant Delay.” |
7
(r) The definition of “Tenant’s Improvements” in Exhibit “A” attached to the Lease is hereby amended, in its entirety, to read as follow: |
“ ‘Tenant’s Improvements’ means all initial improvements to the Premises (other than Landlord’s Improvements) to be designed, constructed and/or installed by Landlord and paid for by Tenant, subject to the Design Allowance and the Improvement Allowance; provided, however, the term “Tenant’s Improvements’ does not include the Modular Furniture, which is expressly deemed a part of the FFE to be installed by Tenant as described in Section 17.6 (Tenant’s Installations).” |
(s) Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Exhibit “B” attached to the Lease is hereby deleted and that the Exhibit “B” attached hereto is inserted in lieu thereof and incorporated by reference herein. | |
(t) Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Exhibit “H” attached to the Lease is deleted and that the Exhibit “H” attached hereto is inserted in lieu thereof and incorporated herein by reference as the correct legal description of the Land. | |
(u) The following provision is hereby deleted from Page 2 of Exhibit “I” (Landlord’s Improvements): |
“Ceiling lighting: 2’ x 4’ (3) lamp F32/T8 with energy-saving electronic ballasts, Parabolic 18-cell light fixtures, 277 volts (palletized for 1/80 RSF).” |
(v) The following sections of the Lease are hereby terminated, deleted and of no further force or effect: Section 19.1 (Option to Expand), Section 19.2 (Right of Notice) and Section 19.4 (Acceleration of Expiration Date by Tenant). |
3. Ratification. Except as expressly modified herein, the Lease will remain in full force and effect, and the terms thereof are hereby ratified and confirmed.

“13.1.3 Additional Provision Regarding Assignment |
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 13 to the contrary, in the event Tenant should assign its interest in the Lease to a “Credit Quality Tenant” as hereinafter defined, and at the time of such assignment, this Lease shall be in full force and effect and there does not then exist any Event of Default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions herein contained which has not been remedied within the cure period as contained in this Lease, and Tenant has otherwise complied with the requirements of this Article 13, then upon the assignment of this Lease to a Credit Quality Tenant, Landlord shall, by or before the effective date of such assignment, deliver to Tenant, in writing, a release from any liabilities or obligations under this Lease which arise out of or relate to the portion of the Term following the effective date of such assignment. For the purposes of this Section, the term “Credit Quality Tenant” shall mean an entity qualified to do business in the State of Florida with a tangible net worth of $425 million or more, as measured in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and a credit rating of not less than BBB from Standard Poors Rating Services or not less than Baa2 from Xxxxx’x. For purposes of this Section, Tenant will be deemed to have assigned its interest to a “Credit Quality Tenant” if a leasehold mortgagee of Tenant succeeds to Tenant’s leasehold interest by operation of law following foreclosure of a leasehold mortgage, but only so long as the successor tenant (i.e., the leasehold mortgagee) otherwise meets the criteria for a “Credit Quality Tenant” described above.” |
(h) The first sentence of Section 17.9 of the Original Lease, as amended in the Second Amendment, is hereby amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“Landlord agrees to provide to Tenant (i) an allowance with respect to the preparation of the Plans, in the amount of $8,853.40 (the “Design Allowance”), which Design Allowance has already been paid to Tenant, and (ii) an allowance with respect to the construction of the Tenant’s Improvements in accordance with the Construction Price, in the amount of $3,133,805.20 (the “Tenant Improvement Allowance”).” |
(i) The fourth sentence of Section 17.9 of the Original Lease, as amended in the Second Amendment, is hereby amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“To the extent the Construction Price shall be less than the Tenant Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall be entitled to a credit against Base Rent and Additional Rent in the amount of such savings (the “Tenant Improvement Allowance Savings”).” |
(j) Section 19.8 of the Original Lease, as amended in the Second Amendment, is amended, in its entirety, to read as follows: |
“Tenant shall be entitled to a moving contribution from Landlord in the amount of $380,478.40 (the “Moving Contribution”); such Moving Contribution shall be in addition to and not a part of the Tenant Improvement Allowance. | |
Tenant shall also be entitled to a lighting contribution from Landlord in the amount $128,532.00 (the “Lighting Contribution”).” |
Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Landlord shall not be obligated to pay the Moving Contribution and Lighting Contribution directly to Tenant, but rather Landlord and Tenant agree that Tenant shall be entitled to a credit against Base Rent and Additional Rent in the aggregate amount (the “Tenant’s Rent |
4
Credit”) of the Moving Contribution, Lighting Contribution, and Tenant Improvement Allowance Savings, as provided in Section 17.9 of the Lease. |
(k) Tenant acknowledges that it has elected not to purchase the Property pursuant to its Right of Initial Offer in Section 19.11 of the Original Lease, and Landlord and Tenant agree that Section 19.11 of the Original Lease is hereby deleted and of no further force and effect. |
3. Construction Provisions; Tenant’s Rent Credit. Pursuant to the Lease, Tenant is entitled to a total of $3,642,815.60 of Tenant allowances and contributions under the Lease (the “Total Allowance”), which Total Allowance has been calculated by adding the Tenant Improvement Allowance of $3,133,805.20, the Lighting Contribution of $128,532.00, and the Moving Contribution of $380,478.40. Landlord and Tenant agree that the current estimated Construction Price to complete construction of the Tenant’s Improvements (including, without limitation, the costs of purchasing light fixtures and the costs of any Change Orders approved by Landlord) as of the date hereof to be applied by Landlord against the Total Allowance is $2,919,569.00 (the “Estimated Total Construction Price”). Based on the Estimated Total Construction Price, Tenant and Landlord agree that Tenant’s Rent Credit would be $723,246.60, subject to reconciliation between Landlord and Tenant as described in the following paragraph. From and after the Rent Commencement Date (i.e., May 17, 2001), Landlord has been sending, and will continue to send, to Tenant a monthly notice stating that Landlord is applying Tenant’s Rent Credit toward Tenant’s first due Rent obligations under the Lease and showing the then current uncredited balance of Tenant’s Rent Credit, as currently estimated. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Landlord has been applying, and will continue to apply, the Tenant’s Rent Credit against Tenant’s Rent obligations until the Tenant’s Rent Credit has been exhausted.
Notwithstanding anything in the Lease (including Section 17.9, as amended) to the contrary, to the extent that the actual Construction Price to complete construction of the Tenant’s Improvements (including, without limitation, the costs of purchasing light fixtures and the costs of any Change Orders approved by Landlord)(the “Actual Total Construction Price”) shall exceed the Estimated Total Construction Price, Tenant’s Rent Credit shall be reduced accordingly. To the extent the Actual Total Construction Price shall be less than the Estimated Total Construction Price, the Tenant’s Rent Credit shall be increased accordingly.
4. Confirmation of Third Floor Occupancy. Once Tenant has occupied and commenced business operations in the portions of the Premises located on the third (3rd) floor of the Building (the “Third Floor”), Tenant shall, within five (5) Business Days after Landlord’s request, provide Landlord with a written notice to Landlord confirming that Tenant has occupied and commenced business operations on the Third Floor.
5. Ratification. Except as expressly modified herein, the Lease will remain in full force and effect, and the terms thereof are hereby ratified and confirmed.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Third Amendment, on the day and year first above written.

A. Landlord and Tenant entered into that certain Multi-Tenant Office Lease Agreement, dated May 3, 2000, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Multi-Tenant Office Agreement, dated June 1, 2000, that certain Second Amendment to Multi-Tenant Office Lease Agreement, dated November 20, 2000, and that certain Third Amendment to Multi-Tenant Office Lease Agreement, dated as of October 11, 2001 (collectively, the “Lease”), which Lease is for certain premises (the “Premises”) located in an office building in Miramar, Florida (the “Building”), which Premises and Building are more particularly described in the Lease; and
B. Landlord and Tenant desire to amend the Lease on the terms and conditions of this Fourth Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements made herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:
TERMS:
1. Recitals. The foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated herein by reference. Except as otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Lease.
2. Amendments to Lease. The Lease is hereby amended as follows:
(a) The following is hereby added to Section 1.2.6(c) of the Lease: |
“14. The allocation of management and maintenance and repair responsibilities in this Lease and in leases for comparable premises.” |
(b) Section 2.4 of the Lease is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows: |
“2.4 Tax on Rent.
Tenant shall pay, also as Additional Rent, any sales tax or excise tax on Rents (excluding sales tax on any component of Operating Expenses or other charges, fees or expenses payable by Tenant under this Lease on which sales tax is not due according to the state’s Department of Revenue), gross receipts or other tax (however described excluding any inheritance, estate, succession, transfer, gift taxes, or income taxes imposed upon Landlord), which is levied or assessed by the United States of America or the state or any political subdivision thereof, against Landlord in respect to the Basic Rent, Additional Rent, or other charges reserved under this Lease or as a result of Landlord’s receipt of such rents or other charges accruing under this Lease. Landlord shall take all reasonable administrative measures (including itemization of any component of Operating Expenses which may be exempt) under applicable laws or regulations which may be required to be observed or performed in order to avoid incurring sales tax on any component of Operating Expenses or other charges, fees or expenses (other than Basic Rent) payable by Tenant under this Lease.” |
(c) Section 3.3 of the Lease is hereby amended to add the following: |
“In addition to Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, as Operating Expenses are defined in Exhibit “A”, Tenant shall pay to Landlord each month throughout the Term hereof, together with each monthly installment of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, a monthly property management fee (the “Property Management Fee”), in the amount of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00), provided, however, that such Monthly Property Management Fee shall be adjusted on the commencement date of each Lease Year, commencing June 1, 2004, by multiplying the Monthly Property Management Fee for the prior Lease Year by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Index (as defined below) published for the third (3rd) calendar month prior to the commencement date of such Lease Year and the denominator of which shall be the Index published for the third (3rd) calendar month prior to the commencement date of the immediately preceding Lease Year. As used herein, the term “Index” shall mean the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (All Items) as published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics for the Miami-Fort Lauderdale Area (1982-1984=100). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Monthly Property Management Fee for any Lease Year shall not exceed one hundred four percent |
2
(104%) of the Monthly Property Management Fee for the preceding Lease Year.” |
(d) Section 3.7 of the Lease is hereby amended by deleting therefrom the third (3rd) sentence in its entirety. | |
(e) Section 3.8 of the Lease is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows: |
“3.8 Property Taxes.
(a) Tenant covenants and agrees to pay during the Term directly to the applicable authority, before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto for the non-payment thereof, all Property Taxes which at any time during the Term may be assessed, levied, confirmed, imposed upon or become a lien on the Property to the extent such Property Taxes pertain to and are allocable to the Term. Within ten (10) business days after receipt thereof, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant any xxxx or statement for Property Taxes from the applicable governmental authority. Tenant shall have the right to take advantage of all applicable discounts for early payment of Property Taxes. If any assessments included with the Property Taxes are payable or, at the option of the taxpayer, may be paid, in installments, Tenant may pay the same in installments as the same respectively become payable and before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto for the non-payment of any installment. With respect to the calendar year in which the Term commences and the calendar year in which the Term expires, Tenant shall be responsible only for the prorated portion of the Property Taxes for such year or for such calendar year falling within the Term. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if title to the Property shall be conveyed more than five (5) times during the Initial Term, then to the extent such fifth (5th) conveyance of the Property shall cause the Property Tax assessment of the value of the Property to be increased, Tenant’s liability for Property Taxes shall thereafter be calculated using the assessed value of the Property stated in the Property Tax assessment for the year in which the sixth (6th) conveyance of the Property occurs. Tenant shall continue to be liable for any increase in the millage rate and rate of taxes levied. Further, this provision shall not apply with respect to any conveyance made during any Renewal Term. To the extent Tenant’s liability for Property Taxes shall be limited as hereinabove provided, Landlord shall be responsible for paying all Property Taxes in excess of Tenant’s liability therefor, as so limited. |
3
(b) Tenant shall have the right at its own expense to contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any Property Taxes, by appropriate proceeding diligently conducted in good faith, in which event, Tenant may postpone or defer payment of such Property Taxes if (a) neither the Premises nor any portion thereof would, by reason of such postponement or deferment, be in danger of being forfeited or lost, and (b) Tenant shall have deposited with Landlord cash or a letter of credit issued by a national bank or federal savings and loan association in the amount of the Property Taxes so contested and unpaid, together with all interest and penalties which may accrue in Landlord’s reasonable judgment in connection therewith. If, during the continuance of such proceedings, Landlord shall, from time to time, reasonably deem the amount deposited, as aforesaid, insufficient, Tenant shall, upon demand of Landlord, make additional deposits of such additional sums of money or such additional certificates of deposit, or letters of credit as Landlord may reasonably request. Upon failure of Tenant to make such additional deposits, the amount theretofore deposited may be applied by Landlord to the payment, removal and discharge of such Property Taxes, and the interest, fines and penalties in connection therewith, and any costs, fees (including attorney’s fees) and other liability (including costs incurred by Landlord) accruing in any such proceedings. Upon the termination or final determination of any such proceedings, Tenant shall pay the amount of such Property Taxes or part thereof, if any, as finally determined in such proceeding, the payment of which may have been deferred during the prosecution of such proceedings, together with any costs, fees, including attorneys’ fees, interest, penalties and fines in connection therewith, and upon such payment Landlord shall return all amounts or certificates or letters of credit deposited with it with respect to the contest of such Property Taxes, as aforesaid, or, at the written direction of Tenant, Landlord shall make such payment out of the funds on deposit with Landlord or by drawing upon such letters of credit and the balance, if any, shall be returned to Tenant. Tenant shall be entitled to the refund of any Property Taxes, penalty, fine and/or interest thereon which may have been paid by Tenant prior thereto. Landlord shall not be required to join in any proceedings referred to in this section, unless the provisions of any law, rule or regulation at the time in effect shall require that such proceedings be brought by or in the name of Landlord, in which event, Landlord shall join in such proceedings or permit the same to be brought in the name of Landlord, in which event Landlord shall join in such proceedings to permit the same to be brought in Landlord’s name, upon Tenant’s compliance with such conditions as Landlord may |
4
reasonably require, and provided Landlord shall not have any liability for any costs or fees, including attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, in connection with any such proceedings. During the time when any such cash or certificate of deposit is on deposit with Landlord, and prior to the time when the same is returned to Tenant or applied against the payment, removal or discharge of Property Taxes, as above provided, Tenant shall be entitled to receive all interest paid thereon. |
(c) At Landlord’s written demand after any Event of Default and for as long as such Event of Default is uncured, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the known or reasonably estimated yearly Property Taxes payable with respect to the Premises in monthly payments equal to one-twelfth of the known or reasonably estimated yearly Property Taxes next payable with respect to the Premises. From time to time Landlord may reasonably reestimate the amount of Property Taxes, and in such event Landlord shall notify Tenant, in writing, of such reestimate and fix future monthly installments for the remaining period prior to the next Property Tax due date in an amount sufficient to pay the reestimated amount over the balance of such period after giving credit for payments made by Tenant on the previous estimate. In the event that as of date as of which Tenant shall elect to pay Property Taxes in accordance with Section 3.8(a), above, the event of default that shall have been the occasion for Landlord’s demand for the monthly escrow of estimated Property Taxes with Landlord shall remain uncured, then Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the balance of the sums which, together with the sums previously escrowed with Landlord, shall be sufficient to pay the Property Taxes, assuming payment thereof as of the date five (5) business days following Landlord’s receipt thereof from Tenant, and thereupon Landlord shall be responsible to pay such Property Taxes and Tenant shall have no further liability therefor. In the event that the event of default that shall have been the occasion of Landlord’s demand for the monthly escrow of estimated Property Taxes with Landlord shall have been cured, then, within five (5) business days following request therefor from Tenant, Landlord shall, as the case may be, return the letter(s) of credit or pay to Tenant the entire amount of the cash sums or certificates of deposit theretofor escrowed with Landlord for Property Taxes, together with interest thereon. If the total monthly payments made by Tenant pursuant to this paragraph shall exceed the amount of payments necessary for said Property Taxes, such excess shall be credited on subsequent monthly payments of the same nature; or if the Lease shall theretofore have expired or terminated, paid to Tenant within thirty (30) days following such expiration or termination, but if the |
5
total of such monthly payments so made under this paragraph shall be insufficient to pay such Property Taxes when due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord such amount as may be necessary to make up the deficiency, within thirty (30) days following notice thereof from Landlord. |
(d) In addition to the right of Tenant under this Section to contest the amount or validity of Property Taxes, Landlord shall also have the right, but not the obligation, to contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any Property Taxes not contested by Tenant, by appropriate proceedings conducted in the name of Landlord or in the name of Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord elects to contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any Property Taxes, such contests by Landlord shall be at Landlord’s expense, provided, however, that if the amounts payable by Tenant for Property Taxes are reduced (or if a proposed increase in such amounts is avoided or reduced) by reason of Landlord’s contest of Property Taxes, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for costs incurred by Landlord in contesting Property Taxes, but such reimbursements shall not be in excess of the amount saved by Tenant by reason of Landlord’s actions in contesting such Property Taxes. With respect to the Property Taxes for the year which are the subject of such protest, Tenant shall be entitled to the refund of any Property Taxes or estimated amounts therefor, and all penalties, fines and/or interest thereon which may have been paid by Tenant prior thereto. |
(f) The last sentence of Section 3.9(a) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: |
“As used herein, the term “Controllable Operating Expenses” shall mean all Operating Expenses other than costs and expenses for insurance and capital costs permitted to be included in Operating Expenses as provided in the definition of Operating Expenses as provided in this Lease.” |
(g) Section 3.9(c) of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety. | |
(h) Section 3.10 of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety. | |
(i) Article 6 of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: |
6
"ARTICLE 6.
UTILITIES AND SERVICES
6.1 Payment of Utilities. Tenant will pay, when due, all charges of every nature, kind or description for utilities furnished to the Premises or chargeable against the Premises, including all charges for water, sewage, heat, gas, light, garbage, electricity, telephone, steam, power, or other public or private utility services. |
6.2 Additional Charges. In the event that any charge or fee is required by the state in which the Premises are located, or by any agency, subdivision, or instrumentality thereof, or by any utility company furnishing services or utilities to the Premises, as a condition precedent to furnishing or continuing to furnish utilities to the Premises, such charge or fee shall be deemed to be a utility charge payable by Tenant. The provisions of this Section 6.2 shall include, but not be limited to, any charges or fees for present or future water or sewer capacity to serve the Premises, any charges for the underground installation of gas or other utilities or services, and other charges relating to the extension of or change in the facilities necessary to provide the Premises with adequate utility services.” |
6.3 Landlord warrants and represents to Tenant that Landlord has furnished to the Building, and, as of the date of the Fourth Amendment, the Building continues to be serviced by the following services (the “Building Services”): |
6.3.1 Electrical Energy. The Premises are served by electrical energy at a minimum of 9.0 xxxxx per rentable square foot, connectable load, for lighting and for operating office machines for general office use. Electrical energy is sufficient for Tenant to operate personal computers and other equipment of similar low electrical consumption, but is not sufficient for lighting in excess of two (2) xxxxx per square foot installed or for electrical convenience outlets in excess of six (6) xxxxx per square foot installed; provided, however, there is one (1) spare watt available for use for lighting or electrical convenience outlets at Tenant’s discretion. Tenant will not use any equipment requiring electrical energy in excess of the electrical energy actually furnished to the Premises unless Tenant shall pay all costs of installing the equipment and facilities as necessary to furnish such excess energy. |
6.3.2 Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning. The Premises are served by heating, ventilation and air conditioning, pursuant to the HVAC specifications described as a part of the Landlord’s Improvements. There are not less than four (4) separate HVAC zones per floor, each capable of being operated individually, in |
7
accordance with the HVAC specifications. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense shall have the right to install adequate supplemental air conditioning units (“Supplemental AC Systems”) in portions of the Premises, as Tenant deems necessary in its sole discretion. |
6.3.3 Telecom and Data Systems. The Premises are served by the following telecom and data systems at the Building: (i) dual fiber optic routes into the Building, (ii) dual control office feeds, and (iii) one copper feed into the Building, all as more particularly described as a part of Landlord’s Improvements. |
6.3.4 Security. The Premises are served by a controlled access security system to reasonably control access to the main entry as well as other points of ingress or egress to Building and parking areas with the specifications more particularly set forth as a part of Landlord’s Improvements. Landlord has additionally constructed (a) a security desk in the reception area of the first floor lobby of the Building, to Tenant’s reasonable specifications and (b) security cameras and a central monitoring station in the reception area of the first floor lobby area, the cost of which cameras and monitoring station shall be amortized over the useful life thereof, and the annual amortized costs shall be included in Operating Expenses. |
6.3.5 Life Safety Systems. The Premises are served by a building life safety system, which is more particularly described as a part of Landlord’s Improvements. |
6.4 Other Provisions Relating to Services. Subject to the limitations set forth below, no interruption in, or temporary stoppage of any of the services this Article 6 describes is to be deemed an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use and possession of the Premises, nor does any interruption or stoppage relieve Tenant from any obligation this Lease describes, render Landlord liable for damages or entitle Tenant to any rent abatement. |
