1.20	SPECIAL PROVISIONS:

A. Existing Tenant. Tenant acknowledges that the Premises (or a portion thereof) are currently leased and occupied by a third party (the “Existing Tenant”) under a written lease with Landlord (the “Existing Lease”). Tenant agrees that, notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord’s obligations under this Lease shall be contingent upon the Existing Tenant entering into an agreement with Landlord to terminate the Existing Lease with respect to the Premises and the Existing Tenant surrendering the Premises to Landlord (the “Existing Lease Conditions”). Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant in the event the foregoing conditions are not satisfied, and in the event the conditions are not satisfied by October 31, 2014, then Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to Tenant, in which case this Lease shall terminate automatically as of the date of such notice and Landlord shall return the Prepaid Base Rent and Security Deposit to Tenant.

B. Initial Base Rent Abatement. So long as no Event of Default exists, the Base Rent shall be abated in full for the first five (5) full calendar months following the Commencement Date (the “Initial Base Rent Abatement Period”); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if any Event of Default shall occur during the Initial Base Rent Abatement Period, then, in addition to Landlord’s other rights and remedies, all Base Rent after the date of such Event of Default shall be payable in full without any abatement.

C. Right of First Offer. Subject to the following terms and conditions and the rights granted to tenants under leases executed prior to the date of this Lease and the rights now or hereafter granted by Landlord to the existing tenant(s) or occupant(s) of the “First Offer Premises” (hereinafter defined) and provided no Event of Default exists, Tenant shall have, during the Lease Term, the right of first offer to expand the Premises by leasing the First Offer Premises from Landlord when the same become available for lease after the Commencement Date. The “First Offer Premises” shall mean the entire balance of the rentable area on the 6th floor of the Building. Prior to extending an offer to lease the First Offer Premises to any third party, Landlord shall give Tenant notice (the “First Offer Notice”) of the terms (including the term [which must be not less than 5 years], rent, tenant improvement allowance and other economic terms) on which Landlord is willing to lease the First Offer Premises to Tenant (the “Offered Terms”), which Offered Terms shall be consistent with the then prevailing terms for expansion transactions in Class A office buildings within the College Boulevard corridor in Xxxxxxx County, Kansas. Tenant shall have the one-time right to lease the First Offer Premises specified in the First Offer Notice for the Offered Terms by giving irrevocable written notice to Landlord of its election to do so within 10 days after Tenant's receipt of the First Offer Notice. If Tenant shall fail to notify Landlord of its election to lease the First Offer Premises within such 10-day period, then commencing on the expiration of such 10-day period, Landlord may lease the First Offer Premises to a third party without further notice to Tenant and the terms of this paragraph shall be deemed null and void, except that if Landlord shall reduce the base rent by more than 4% from the base rent included in the Offered Term, then Landlord shall give Tenant notice of such reduced base rent and Tenant shall have the right, subject to the terms of this Section to lease the First Offer Premises for the Offered Terms (as revised to include such lower base rent) pursuant to the provisions of this Section. If Tenant shall elect to lease the First Offer Premises, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an amendment to this Lease prepared by Landlord evidencing the leasing of the First Offer Premises for the Offered Terms within 10 days after Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of such amendment. Any termination of this Lease shall terminate Tenant's right of first offer hereunder. The right of first offer granted to Tenant herein shall be personal to Tenant named herein, and if Tenant shall assign this Lease or sublease all or any portion of the Premises, then this Section 1.20.C. shall automatically be deemed null and void effective as of the date of such assignment or sublease.

D. Covered Parking. Subject to Section 18.7 and Paragraph 14 of Exhibit E, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive, un-reserved right to use, on a first-come, first served basis, up to 15 of the covered parking spaces in the covered parking area serving the Building at no additional charge.

E. Landlord’s Insurance. Landlord shall maintain throughout the Term of this Lease, (i) a policy of Commercial General Liability insurance with respect to the Total Building Facilities, and (ii) a policy of property insurance (on a special causes of loss form) insuring the Building in such amounts and with such coverages as Landlord shall determine in Landlord’s sole discretion, except that the Commercial General Liability insurance provided above shall include limits of coverage not less than $1,000,000 (Each Occurrence Limit) and $2,000,000 (General Aggregate Limit). The foregoing insurance may be covered under blanket or umbrella policies covering other properties.

F. Non-Disturbance Agreement. Upon request by Tenant, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to obtain from Landlord’s Mortgagee a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord’s Motgagee, Landlord and Tenant, but Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant if Landlord is unable to obtain the same from Landlord’s Mortgagee. If Tenant shall so request, Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of all fees and charges imposed by Landlord’s Mortgagee in connection with such agreement.

EXHIBIT A

ARTICLE 2: DEMISE

Upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, Landlord leases the Premises to Tenant and Tenant leases the Premises from Landlord.

ARTICLE 3: TERM AND OPTION PERIODS

3.1 Commencement Date. The Term of this Lease shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall expire at midnight on the Expiration Date, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. If Tenant shall take possession of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date for the purposes of making alterations and/or installing “Tenant’s Property” (as defined in Section 7.6 below), then Tenant shall perform all of its obligations under this Lease (other than the obligation to pay Rent) from the date of such possession.

3.2 Failure of Delivery. Landlord shall use good faith efforts to deliver exclusive possession of the Premises to Tenant with “Landlord’s Work” (if any) described on Exhibit D “substantially complete” (as therein defined) by the Projected Delivery Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, (a) if Landlord, for any reason whatsoever, cannot deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant by the Projected Delivery Date, then Landlord will permit Tenant to occupy the office section of the Premises on the Projected Delivery Date (to the extent legal occupancy is permitted by applicable Laws) and Landlord will then have until December 1, 2014 to deliver the balance of the Premises. During such partial occupancy, Tenant will pay the full Rent payable for the month of November. If Landlord cannot deliver the full Premises by December 1, 2014 (which date shall be extended one day for each day of delay caused by Tenant Delays), then Tenant shall pay a pro-rata Rent for the portion of the Premises occupied by Tenant from December 1, 2014 through the date immediately preceding the date that Landlord delivers the balance of the Premises. If Landlord is still unable to deliver the full Premises to Tenant by February 1, 2015 (which date shall be extended one day for each day of delay caused by Tenant Delays and/or Force Majeure), then Tenant shall have the right, as its sole and exclusive remedy, to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of such election to Landlord prior to the date Landlord delivers the Premises to Tenant. In the event of any Tenant Delay, the Commencement Date (and Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent) shall occur on the date the Commencement Date would have occurred but for such Tenant Delay. Landlord has advised Tenant of a current tenant of the Building (the “Potential Sublandlord”) that may be willing to sublease certain space to Tenant on a temporary basis to accommodate Tenant’s move to the Building. In the event Landlord has not delivered the Premises to Tenant by the Projected Delivery Date, then Landlord, in addition to the terms above, will (a) permit Tenant to move its furnishings into and use and occupy the portion of the Premises that are substantially constructed and finished (as permitted under applicable Laws) or other available temporary space in the Building, and/or (b) to cooperate with Tenant and the Potential Sublandlord to approve a sublease as contemplated above for Tenant’s temporary use pending the completion of Landlord’s Work.

3.3 Commencement Agreement. Within 30 days after the Commencement Date, the parties shall enter into a “Commencement Agreement” substantially in the form of attached Exhibit F, setting forth the actual Commencement Date and Expiration Date of the Term.

3.4 Option Periods

(A) Tenant shall, subject to the terms of paragraphs (B) and (C) hereof, have the right to extend the Term for the Option Periods set forth in Section 1.6.D. of this Lease from the date upon which the initial Term would otherwise expire upon the same terms and conditions as those specified in this Lease.

A-1

(B) If Tenant elects to exercise its option for any Option Period, Tenant shall do so by giving Landlord notice of such election (the “Option Notice”), in accordance with the provisions of Section 18.1 of this Lease, at least 180 days before the beginning of the Option Period for which the Term is to be extended by the exercise of such option. Landlord shall deliver notice (the “Option Base Rent Notice”) to Tenant indicating Landlord’s good faith determination of the Option Period Base Rent within the 30-day period following the later of (a) Landlord’s receipt of the Option Notice, or (b) the date that is 180 days prior to the commencement of the Option Period. If Tenant, in good faith, does not agree with Landlord’s determination of the Option Period Base Rent, then Tenant shall notify Landlord of such disagreement within 15 days after its receipt of the Landlord Option Period Base Rent Notice (the “Objection Period”). Tenant’s failure to notify Landlord in writing of its objection to the Option Period Base Rent within the Objection Period shall be deemed an agreement by Tenant of the amount of the Option Period Base Rent contained in the Option Period Base Rent Notice. If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree in good faith on the amount of the Option Period Base Rent prior to the expiration of the Objection Period, either Landlord or Tenant may nullify the Option Notice by written notice to the other party, in which case the term of the Lease shall expire as if the Option Period in question were not exercised by Tenant. Once the Option Period Base Rent is determined (or deemed approved by Tenant), the parties shall execute an amendment to the Lease setting forth the Base Rent for the applicable Option Period.

(C) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in paragraph (A) of this Section, if (i) an “Event of Default” (as defined in Section 15.1) shall exist as of the date Tenant shall have given Landlord the Option Notice for such Option Period, or (ii) Tenant fails to give Landlord the Option Notice for such Option Period in the manner required in paragraph (B) above, or (iii) Tenant having given the Option Notice thereafter commits an Event of Default prior to the expiration of the then current Term, then Landlord shall thereupon have the right to negate Tenant's Option Notice for such Option Period, and if Landlord so notifies Tenant that Landlord elects to negate such notice by reason of such default, then Tenant shall be deemed without further notice and without further agreement between Landlord and Tenant to have elected not to exercise its option for such Option Period. Any holding over or failure to vacate the Premises at the end of any Term shall not be deemed or construed to be an exercise of an Option Period or an extension of this Lease. Any termination of this Lease shall terminate Tenant's rights of further extension hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, the rights granted Tenant named herein under this Section shall be personal to Tenant named herein and, upon an assignment of this Lease pursuant to Article 9 of this Lease (other than to a “Permitted Transferee”, as defined in Section 9.1), the rights granted Tenant named herein under this Section shall be of no further force and effect; however, the rights under this Section may be exercised by a Permitted Transferee.

ARTICLE 4: USE OF PREMISES

4.1 Use. Tenant shall use the Premises solely for the Permitted Use set forth in Section 1.16 and for no other use.

4.2 Rules and Regulations; Compliance. Tenant shall comply with the “Rules and Regulations” attached hereto as Exhibit E, as the same may be reasonably amended from time to time by Landlord, provided all such Rules and Regulations are enforced in a reasonable and non-discriminatory manner. Tenant shall comply with the reasonable recommendations and requirements of Landlord’s property insurance carrier, and in no event shall Tenant effect any alterations or conduct its business in the Premises in such fashion as to cause an increase in Landlord’s insurance premiums.

A-2

ARTICLE 5: RENT

5.1 Base Rent. Tenant shall pay the “Rent” (as defined below) to Landlord, without notice or demand by Landlord and without set-off, deduction or abatement (except as expressly permitted by the provisions of this Lease). Subject to Section 5.2, the Base Rent shall be payable in advance, on the Commencement Date (prorated if a partial calendar month) and thereafter on the first day of each calendar month during the Term of this Lease. Tenant shall pay as “additional rent” all other charges required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease, whether or not the same are designated as additional rent. If such amounts are not paid at the time provided in this Lease, they shall be payable as additional rent upon demand or with the next installment of Base Rent thereafter falling due, whichever shall first occur. The term “Rent” shall refer collectively to the Base Rent and the additional rent. The Rent shall be prorated for any partial month of the Term based on a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year.

5.2 Prepaid Base Rent. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall prepay the Base Rent for the first month of the Term.

5.3 Tenant’s Expense Charge. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the “Expense Charge” in accordance with Exhibit B.

5.4 Late Charges and Interest. For each monthly installment of Base Rent and/or the Expense Charge which Landlord receives after the 5th day of the month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent a service charge equal to Fifty Dollars ($50.00) for bookkeeping and administrative expenses. If Landlord issues a notice of default to Tenant by reason of Tenant’s failure to pay any installment of Base Rent and/or the Expense Charge by the 5th day of the month, Tenant shall pay Landlord an additional service charge in the amount of One Hundred Dollars ($100.00). If Landlord presents Tenant's check to any bank and Tenant’s check is dishonored, then Tenant shall additionally pay Landlord a bad check fee of Fifty Dollars ($50.00), all of such payment provisions in this Section to be cumulative. In addition, any Rent not paid within 10 days after notice of delinquency shall accrue interest from the due date until payment is received by Landlord at a rate (the “Default Rate”) which is equal to the lesser of (i) the highest lawful rate that may be charged to Tenant, or (ii) 4% per annum in excess of the “Prime Rate”, as published from time to time in The Wall Street Journal. Nothing contained in this Section 5.4, however, shall affect any other rights of Landlord contained in this Lease to recover costs and expenses in connection with the occurrence of an Event of Default nor shall payment of the foregoing service and interest charges be deemed a cure of any Event of Default nor shall acceptance by Landlord of such payment be deemed consent by Landlord to late payments or a waiver of any rights Landlord may have to pursue any remedies for a default by Tenant under this Lease.

5.5 Place of Payment. Tenant shall pay all Rent at the address shown in Section 1.13, or at such other place or places as Landlord may designate from time to time in writing.

ARTICLE 6: SECURITY DEPOSIT

Contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the Security Deposit set forth in Section 1.12. The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord, without liability for interest, as security for the payment and performance by Tenant of Tenant’s obligations contained in this Lease. The Security Deposit may be co-mingled with other funds of Landlord and shall under no circumstances be construed or held as a trust or escrow of any kind. The Security Deposit shall not constitute an advance payment of any amounts owed by Tenant under this Lease or a fixed measure of damage to which Landlord shall be entitled upon a breach of this Lease by Tenant. If an Event of Default exists, then Landlord may, at its option, and without prejudice to Landlord’s other remedies, apply the Security Deposit, or any portion thereof, toward the cost of curing Tenant’s default; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if prior to the Expiration Date or any sooner termination of this Lease, Landlord applies the Security Deposit, in whole or in part toward the rectification of Tenant’s default, then immediately following such application, Tenant shall restore the amount so used by Landlord. Tenant may not credit or deduct the Security Deposit from any month’s Rent. So long as no Event of Default exists, then Landlord shall, within 30 days after the Expiration Date or any sooner termination of this Lease, refund to Tenant any funds remaining in the Security Deposit; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, (i) Landlord may deliver the Security Deposit to the purchaser of the Total Building Facilities, and in such case, Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with respect to such Deposit, and (ii) in the event of the foreclosure of any Mortgage encumbering the Total Building Facilities, or any part thereof, or a conveyance in lieu thereof, the party who succeeds to title by reason thereof shall have no obligation for the return of the Security Deposit, except to the extent such Security Deposit was received by the party who so succeeds to title.

A-3

ARTICLE 7: TENANT’S ACCEPTANCE OF PREMISES;

MAINTENANCE; SURRENDER

7.1 Condition of Premises. Subject to Landlord’s performance of “Landlord’s Work”, if any, described in Exhibit D, Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises for 30 days is Tenant’s representation to Landlord that, except for latent defects in Landlord’s Work (as to which Tenant has notified Landlord within 6 months after the Delivery Date) and except for patent defects in Landlord's Work (as to which Tenant notifies Landlord within 30 days after the Delivery Date), (i) Tenant has examined and inspected the Premises, (ii) Tenant finds the Premises to be satisfactory for Tenant's intended use, (iii) Tenant accepts the Premises in its current "AS IS" condition, and (iv) Tenant has not relied on any statement or representation made by Landlord, or by anyone purporting to act on Landlord’s behalf, except as expressly set forth in this Lease. Landlord represents it is unaware of any material defects with respect to the base building mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems serving the Building that have not been disclosed to Tenant.

7.2 Move In. If Landlord is required to perform any “Landlord’s Work” pursuant to Exhibit D, then prior to Tenant’s acceptance of possession of the Premises, Tenant and Landlord shall inspect the Premises in order to prepare a “punch list” of items of Landlord’s Work which are incomplete or not in conformance with the requirements of Exhibit D. Tenant may supplement such punch list within 30 days after Tenant’s acceptance of possession of the Premises. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that one of the purposes of such inspection is to establish the condition of the Premises prior to Tenant’s installation of Tenant’s Property; it being agreed that any damage to the Building or the Premises resulting from the installation of Tenant’s Property, including during the course of Tenant’s moving, shall be repaired by Landlord at Tenant’s expense. During Tenant’s move-in, a representative of Tenant must be on-site with Tenant’s moving company to insure proper treatment of the Total Building Facilities and the Premises. Any move-in by Tenant must be effected during times reasonably designated by Landlord, which may be evenings or weekends if the scope of Tenant’s move would disrupt the businesses operated by other occupants of the Building or the operation of the Building, as reasonably determined by Landlord. Any specialized use of elevators must be coordinated with Landlord’s property manager. Tenant must properly dispose of all packing material and refuse in accordance with the Rules and Regulations.

7.3 Repairs; Alterations; Compliance with Laws. Tenant shall: (a) keep the Premises and fixtures in good condition (including replacing wall and floor coverings, moldings and other cosmetic treatments, as necessary, and maintaining, repairing and replacing, as necessary, any special equipment installed for Tenant, such as dishwashers, refrigerators, showers, supplemental air conditioning units, etc.); and (b) subject to Section 10.2, make repairs to the Premises or Building or Total Building Facilities necessitated by Tenant's misuse or negligence. Except for minor cosmetic alterations, such as painting or the installation of new wall or floor coverings, Tenant shall not alter the Premises without Landlord’s prior consent in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld with respect to interior, non-structural alterations; however, Landlord may condition such consent on Tenant’s agreement (i) to restore the Premises to their former condition on the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, if such improvements (such as internal stairs, raised floors, rolling file systems, vaults, etc.), in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, are of a nature that would require removal and repair costs that are materially in excess of the removal and repair costs associated with standard office improvements, and (ii) to engage Landlord to supervise such construction for a fee equal to 5% of the total construction cost otherwise incurred to effect such alterations. Tenant shall install Tenant’s cabling and wiring (whether installed as part of Tenant’s Work, or subsequent thereto) only within the shafts, chases, risers, raceways, and conduits (collectively, “Pathways”) reasonably designated by Landlord. Tenant shall label each cable placed by Tenant in the Pathways with identification information, including Tenant’s name (to serve as identification), floor where cable originates and floor where cable terminates, and any other information as may reasonably be required from time to time by Landlord. If Landlord shall consent to Tenant’s performance of alterations to the Premises, then Landlord may require Tenant to obtain, prior to performing any such construction work, a performance and payment bond, on the latest edition of the AIA form, covering such contractor’s obligations, in which Landlord shall be named as a dual obligee, in the total amount of the cost of such construction work. Tenant shall comply with all laws, rules and regulations (collectively, “Laws”) of all applicable governmental authorities (“Governmental Authorities”) with respect to Tenant’s manner of operations in the Premises, and shall make such alterations or additions to the Premises as are required to effect such compliance, unless compliance with such Laws would require structural alterations, in which case, Landlord shall effect such structural alterations, and the cost thereof shall be included in “Operating Expenses” as provided in Exhibit B.

A-4

7.4 Liens. Except for Landlord’s performance of Landlord’s Work (if any), Tenant shall keep the Premises, the Building and the Total Building Facilities free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Tenant. Should any claim of lien be filed against the Premises, the Building or the Total Building Facilities by reason of any act or omission of Tenant or any of Tenant’s agents, employees, contractors or representatives, then Tenant shall cause the same to be discharged of record by bond or otherwise within 20 days after notice of the filing thereof. Should Tenant fail to discharge such lien within such 20-day period, then Landlord may, in addition to Landlord’s other remedies and without investigating the validity or propriety of such lien, discharge the same, in which event Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, on demand, as additional rent, for the costs incurred by Landlord in connection therewith.

7.5 Maintenance by Landlord. Subject to Tenant’s obligations under Section 7.3, Landlord shall maintain the Premises, Common Areas and other portions of the Building and Total Building Facilities in good condition and repair. Landlord shall not be deemed to have breached its obligation to make the repairs required of Landlord as set forth in this Section, or be liable for any damages resulting therefrom, unless Landlord fails to make the same within a reasonable period (taking into consideration the type of repair involved) after receiving notice from Tenant of the need therefor.

7.6 Surrender of Premises. On the last day of the Term or on the sooner termination thereof, Tenant shall (i) subject to the provisions of Article 8, peaceably surrender the Premises in good order and repair (subject to Landlord’s maintenance obligations), except for reasonable wear and tear, and (ii) at its expense, remove from the Premises its office supplies, moveable office furniture, moveable office equipment and personal property (collectively, “Tenant’s Property”), and any of Tenant’s Property not so removed may, at Landlord’s option and without limiting Landlord’s right to compel the removal thereof, be deemed abandoned, in which event Landlord, in addition to its other rights and remedies and without liability to Tenant or to any other party, shall be entitled to retain such Property as its own free and clear of all claims of Tenant or any other party. The removal of any of Tenant’s Property shall be at Tenant’s expense and Tenant shall not damage the Premises, the Building or the Total Building Facilities during the course of such removal. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section, Landlord, at its option by notice to Tenant within 30 days after the Expiration Date or the sooner termination of this Lease, may require Tenant to remove from the Premises and/or Building all of Tenant’s telecommunications and data cabling and wiring, and if Tenant fails to effect such removal, then in addition to Landlord’s other remedies, Landlord may have such cabling and wiring removed at Tenant’s expense.

A-5

7.7 Title to Alterations. The title to all alterations, additions, improvements, repairs and decorations (including paneling, wall coverings, wall to wall carpeting and any other article affixed or attached to the walls, floors, ceilings or windows) shall vest in Landlord upon the installation thereof and shall (except as otherwise provided in Section 7.3) be surrendered with the Premises as a part thereof, without charge. Tenant shall have the right to remove all of Tenant’s Property to the Premises.

ARTICLE 8: CASUALTY DAMAGE

8.1 Restoration; Termination by Landlord. If the Premises shall be partially damaged by fire or other casualty insurable under a policy of property insurance on a special causes of loss form, Landlord shall, except as otherwise provided herein, promptly repair and restore the Premises (exclusive of Tenant's Property) substantially to the condition thereof immediately prior to such damage or destruction. If by reason of such occurrence: (i) the Premises is damaged in whole or in part as a result of a risk which is not covered by a policy of property insurance on a special causes of loss form; (ii) the Premises is damaged during the last two years of the Term to the extent the cost of restoration would exceed 25% of the replacement cost of the Premises; or (iii) the Building is damaged (whether or not the Premises is damaged) to the extent the cost of restoration of the Building would exceed 25% of the replacement cost of the Building, then in any such event, Landlord may elect either to repair the damage as aforesaid, or to cancel this Lease by written notice of cancellation given to Tenant within sixty (60) days after the date of such occurrence, and thereupon this Lease shall terminate; however, Landlord shall not terminate this Lease pursuant to clause (iii) unless Landlord concurrently terminates the leases of all other tenants in the Building which it has the right to terminate by reason of such damage. Tenant shall vacate and surrender the Premises to Landlord as soon as commercially reasonable after receipt of such notice of termination (but in no event longer than 20 days after the date of Landlord’s notice).

8.2 Tenant’s Right to Terminate. If the Premises is rendered untenantable by casualty damage, and such damage cannot be restored within 240 days from the date of such damage, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of such fact (the “Restoration Advice”) within 30 days after the occurrence of such damage, and Tenant shall then have the right to terminate this Lease, exercisable (if at all) by notice to Landlord within 20 days after receiving the Restoration Advice from Landlord. Upon the termination of this Lease, whether by Landlord or Tenant, the Rent shall be adjusted as of the effective date of termination.

8.3 Tenant’s Obligation to Remove Tenant’s Property. Unless this Lease is terminated as aforesaid, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, and Tenant shall promptly remove from the damaged portion of the Premises all of Tenant’s Property.

A-6

8.4 Rent Abatement. If by reason of such casualty (other than an uninsurable casualty), the Premises is rendered wholly untenantable, then the Rent payable by Tenant shall be fully abated, or if only partially damaged, such Rent shall be abated proportionately as to that portion of the Premises rendered untenantable, in either event (unless the Lease is terminated, as aforesaid) from the date of such casualty until the Premises have been substantially restored, or until Tenant's business operations are restored in the entire Premises, whichever shall first occur. Tenant shall continue the operation of Tenant's business in the Premises to the extent reasonably practicable from the standpoint of prudent business management. Except for the abatement of the Rent hereinabove set forth, Tenant shall not be entitled to, and hereby waives, all claims against Landlord for any compensation or damage for loss of use of the Premises and/or for any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by any such damage or restoration.

ARTICLE 9: ASSIGNMENT – SUBLEASE

9.1 Transfers. Tenant shall not voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law assign or encumber this Lease, in whole or in part, nor sublet all or any part of the Premises (collectively, a “Transfer”) without the prior consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent (subject to Landlord’s termination rights under Section 9.2 below) shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease. Landlord hereby consents to any Transfer to an entity (a “Permitted Transferee”) (a) that is controlled by, controlling, or under common control with Tenant named herein, so long as such relationship continues (i.e., the cessation of such relationship shall be deemed at that time a Transfer requiring Landlord’s consent) or (b) that purchases all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant named herein or that is the surviving entity in connection with a merger involving Tenant named herein; provided that Tenant gives Landlord prior notice of such Transfer and, in the case of (b) above, such purchaser or surviving entity, upon the closing of such transaction, has a net worth (exclusive of good will an other similar intangible assets) equal to or greater than the net worth of Tenant as of the date of this Lease, as certified to Landlord, in each case, by an independent certified accountant. The consent by Landlord to any Transfer shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity for such consent to any subsequent Transfer. Notwithstanding any Transfer, Tenant shall remain fully liable under this Lease and shall not be relieved from performing any of its obligations hereunder. As a condition to any assignment of this Lease by Tenant which is permitted under this Lease (including an assignment to a Permitted Transferee), the assignee thereof shall be required to execute and deliver to Landlord an agreement, in recordable form, whereby such assignee assumes and agrees with Landlord to discharge all obligations of Tenant under this Lease.

9.2 Landlord Recapture Right. If Tenant shall request Landlord's consent to any Transfer, Tenant shall submit to Landlord with such request the name of the proposed assignee or subtenant, such information concerning its business, financial responsibility and standing as Landlord may reasonably require, and the consideration (and terms and conditions thereof) to be paid for and the effective date of the proposed Transfer. Upon receipt of such request and all such information, Landlord shall have the right (without limiting Landlord's right of consent in respect of such Transfer), by giving notice to Tenant within 15 days thereafter, (i) to terminate this Lease if the request is for an assignment or a subletting of all the Premises, or (ii) if such request is to sublet a portion of the Premises only, to terminate this Lease with respect to such portion (the “Surrender Premises”). If Landlord exercises its right to terminate this Lease, the effective date of termination shall be set forth in Landlord's notice to Tenant, but such date shall not be earlier than the effective date of the proposed Transfer, nor later than 90 days thereafter. If Landlord so elects to terminate this Lease, Tenant shall continue to pay the Rent to Landlord until the effective date of termination, on which date Tenant will surrender possession of the Premises or the portion thereof subject to such right of termination to Landlord in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.6. If Landlord shall terminate this Lease as to a portion of the Premises only, then following such termination the Rent shall be reduced in the same proportion as the number of square feet of rentable area in the Surrender Premises bears to the number of square feet of rentable area in the Premises immediately prior to such termination. The provisions of this Section shall not apply to Transfers to Permitted Transferees.

A-7

9.3 Assignment Consideration. If Tenant shall request Landlord's consent to an assignment of this Lease and Landlord shall consent thereto, the assignee ("Assignee") shall pay directly to Landlord, as additional rent hereunder, at such times as the Assignee shall have agreed to pay Tenant, an amount equal to any consideration the Assignee shall have agreed to pay Tenant on account of such assignment; however, the provisions of this Section shall not apply to assignments to Permitted Transferees.

9.4 Subleasing Consideration. If Tenant shall request Landlord's consent to a subletting of the Premises or any part thereof and Landlord shall consent thereto, Tenant shall pay Landlord, as additional rent, in addition to the Rent, an amount equal to any consideration paid by the subtenant to Tenant in excess of (i) the Rent payable hereunder if all of the Premises are so sublet, or (ii) if less than all of the Premises are so sublet, the Rent payable hereunder allocable (on a per square foot basis) to the portion of the Premises so sublet. The foregoing amount shall be determined monthly and paid by Tenant to Landlord on the first day of each calendar month in advance during the term of such sublease.

9.5 Processing Fees. Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for a processing charge of $250.00 per occurrence, plus reasonable attorney's fees incurred by Landlord in connection with the documentation of any assignment, subletting, license, concession, creation of a security interest, granting of a collateral assignment, change of ownership or other transfer under this Section for which Landlord's consent is required or sought, it being agreed that Landlord shall not be required to take any action thereon until Landlord is paid such amounts.

9.6 Change of Ownership. If at any time during the Term a cumulative total of more than 49% of the ownership interests in the entity comprising Tenant shall be transferred, directly or indirectly, by sale, assignment, gift or in any other manner, any such transfer shall, unless made with Landlord's prior consent, be deemed an unauthorized assignment of this Lease and a default by Tenant under this Lease.

9.7 Transfer by Landlord and Limitation of Liability. If Landlord transfers its interest in the Building, upon such transfer, Landlord (and in the case of any subsequent transfer, the then transferor) shall be released from all liability with respect to the performance of any obligations on Landlord’s part to be performed under this Lease from and after the date of such transfer, it being intended hereby that Landlord’s obligations under this Lease shall be binding on Landlord, its successors and assigns, only during and in respect of their respective periods of ownership of an interest in the Building. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant agrees that Tenant shall look solely to the estate of Landlord in the Total Building Facilities for the collection of any judgment (or other judicial process) requiring the payment of money by Landlord upon any default or breach by Landlord with respect to any of the terms and provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Landlord, subject, however, to the prior rights of the holder of any Mortgage covering the Total Building Facilities, and no other assets of Landlord shall be subject to levy, execution or other judicial process for the satisfaction of Tenant's claim and Landlord shall not be liable for any such default or breach except to the extent of Landlord's estate in the Total Building Facilities.

A-8

ARTICLE 10: INSURANCE

10.1 Tenant Insurance Requirements. Throughout the Term, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall maintain a policy of Commercial General Liability Insurance with a combined single limit each Occurrence and General Aggregate per location of at least $3,000,000.00, which policy shall insure against liability of Tenant arising out of Tenant's use of the Premises, and which policy shall insure the indemnity provisions contained herein. Not more frequently than once every 3 years, Landlord may require the limits to be increased if in its reasonable judgment the coverage is insufficient. Such insurance shall: (i) be issued by insurance companies licensed to do business in the state in which the Premises are located (the “State”) with a general policyholder's rating of at least A- and a financial rating of at least IX in the most current Best's Insurance Reports or if the Best's ratings are changed or discontinued, the parties shall agree to a comparable method of rating insurance companies; (ii) name Landlord and its designees as additional insureds; (iii) provide that the insurance shall not be canceled, allowed to lapse or materially amended unless 30 days advance notice is given to Landlord; (iv) be primary policies; and (v) have no deductible exceeding $10,000.00. Tenant shall provide Landlord with an “ACCORD 27” certificate of insurance, evidencing the foregoing coverage, such certificates to be provided on or before the Delivery Date, and thereafter at least 30 days prior to the expiration of the applicable insurance policy.

10.2 Waiver of Claims. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is agreed that each party (the “Releasing Party”) hereby releases the other (the “Released Party”) from any liability which the Released Party would, but for this Section have had to the Releasing Party during the Term, resulting from the occurrence of any accident or occurrence or casualty (i) which is or would be covered by a property insurance policy (on a special causes of loss form) or by a sprinkler leakage, boiler and machinery or water damage policy in the State (irrespective of whether such coverage is being carried by the Releasing Party), and/or (ii) covered by any other property insurance being carried by the Releasing Party at the time of such occurrence, which accident, occurrence or casualty may have resulted in whole or in part from any act or neglect of the Released Party, its officers, agents or employees; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the release hereinabove set forth shall become inoperative and null and void if the Releasing Party wishes to place the appropriate insurance with an insurance company which (y) takes the position that the existence of such release vitiates or would adversely affect any policy so insuring the Releasing Party in a substantial manner and notice thereof is given to the Released Party, or (z) requires the payment of a higher premium by reason of the existence of such release, unless in the latter case the Released Party within 10 days after notice thereof from the Releasing Party pays such increase in premium.

10.3 Indemnification.

A. Tenant will, subject to the provisions of Section 10.2, indemnify, defend and save harmless Landlord, and its partners, members, managers, agents and employees, from and against any and all claims, actions, liability and expense (including reasonable attorneys fees) in connection with loss of life, bodily injury and/or damage to property (collectively, “Loss”) arising from or out of any occurrence (i) in, upon or at the Premises, or the occupancy or use by Tenant, its agents, employees, servants, subtenants, licensees or concessionaires of the Premises or any part thereof, except to the extent the same is caused by the negligent act or omission of Landlord, its agents or employees, and/or (ii) outside the Premises to the extent occasioned wholly or in part by any negligent act or omission of Tenant, its agents, employees, servants, subtenants, licensees or concessionaires. If any action or proceeding is brought against the parties indemnified under this paragraph by reason of any of the aforementioned causes, Tenant, upon receiving notice thereof from Landlord, agrees to defend such action or proceeding by adequate counsel at its own expense.

A-9

B. Landlord will, subject to the provisions of Section 10.2, indemnify, defend and save harmless Tenant, its officers, agents and employees from all Loss arising from or out of any occurrence (i) in, at or upon the Premises to the extent occasioned wholly or in part by any negligent act or omission of Landlord, its agents or employees; and/or (ii) in or upon any of the Common Areas or any part thereof, except to the extent the same is caused by the negligent act or omission of Tenant, its agents, employees, servants, subtenants, licensees or concessionaires. If any action or proceeding is brought against Tenant, its officers, agents or employees, by reason of any of the aforementioned causes, Landlord, upon receiving notice thereof from Tenant, agrees to defend such action or proceeding by adequate counsel at its own expense.

10.4 Non-Liability of Landlord. Tenant has had full opportunity to examine the Premises and is fully informed, independently of Landlord, as to the character of the Total Building Facilities (including the Premises), its construction and structure. All of Tenant’s Property of any kind or description whatsoever in the Building shall be at Tenant’s sole risk. Landlord shall not be held liable for any damage to Tenant’s Property, or for damage suffered by Tenant arising from any act or omission of any other occupants of the Total Building Facilities, their employees or other persons, or from the bursting, overflowing or leaking of utility pipes or from the malfunctioning of the heating or plumbing fixtures or any mechanical systems, or from leaking windows, doors or roofs, or caused in any other manner whatsoever; however, nothing set forth in this Section 10.4 shall be construed to exculpate Landlord from liability with respect to Landlord’s breach of this Lease.

ARTICLE 11: MORTGAGE PRIORITY

11.1 Mortgage of Premises. Upon the written request of the holder (the “Mortgagee”) of any Mortgage now or hereafter encumbering the Total Building Facilities or any part thereof, Tenant shall subordinate its rights under this Lease to the lien of such Mortgage; however, as a condition of any subordination of this Lease to a Mortgage hereafter placed on the Total Building Facilities or any part thereof, the Mortgagee shall be required to agree in writing with Tenant that Tenant’s possession of the Premises will not be disturbed by the Mortgagee in connection with its enforcement of the Mortgage so long as no Event of Default exists hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Mortgagee elects to have this Lease superior to its Mortgage, then upon Mortgagee’s request, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver an instrument, in the form used by said Mortgagee, effecting such priority; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, with respect to the priority of entitlement to insurance proceeds or any award in condemnation, the Mortgage shall remain prior to this Lease. Tenant, upon Landlord’s request, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver such instruments as are required to effect the intent of this Section. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, Tenant shall not subordinate its rights under this Lease to the lien of any junior or second Mortgage covering all or part of the Total Building Facilities without the prior consent of the holder of the first Mortgage covering all or any part of the Total Building Facilities. Tenant shall, in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of, or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale under, any Mortgage made by Landlord covering any part of the Total Building Facilities, attorn to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure or sale and recognize such purchaser as Landlord under this Lease. If any liens are created in favor of Tenant pursuant to any provision of this Lease, such liens shall be deemed, without the execution of any confirmatory agreement, to be subordinate to the lien of any Mortgage now or hereafter covering any part of the Total Building Facilities and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security thereof.

11.2 Notice to Mortgagee. Tenant agrees to give the holder of any Mortgage covering all or any part of the Total Building Facilities prompt notice in writing in the event of any casualty damage to the Premises or in the event of any default on the part of Landlord under this Lease, provided Tenant has received prior written notice of the address of any such Mortgagee. Tenant agrees to allow such Mortgagee a reasonable length of time (taking into consideration for the purpose of determining such permitted length of time any Force Majeure delays and/or the need to commence foreclosure proceedings), after notice, to cure or cause the curing of such default before exercising Tenant’s rights of self-help under this Lease, if any, or terminating or declaring a default under this Lease; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, in no event shall Tenant have the right to exercise any of its rights under this Lease if such Mortgagee has commenced to cure, within 60 days after receipt of notice, a default by Landlord and is thereafter diligently pursuing the remedies necessary to cure such default.

X-00

00.0 Xxxxxxxx Certificate. Tenant agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver to and in favor of any proposed Mortgagee or purchaser of the Total Building Facilities or any part thereof, within 15 days after written request by Landlord an estoppel certificate, stating, among other things: (a) whether this Lease is in full force and effect; (b) whether this Lease has been modified, supplemented or assigned by Tenant and, if so, identifying and describing any such modification, supplement or assignment; (c) the date to which Rent has been paid; (d) whether Tenant knows of any default on the part of Landlord or has any claim against Landlord and, if so, specifying the nature of such default or claim; (e) the Commencement Date and the Expiration Date; (f) the amount, if any, of any Rent prepaid by Tenant, and the amount of any Security Deposit; and (g) whether Landlord is required to make any payments to Tenant, and if so, whether such payments have been made. If any such certificate is not returned within the requisite 15-day period of time, and such failure continues for longer than 5 days after a subsequent notice of such failure from Landlord (which subsequent notice shall alert Tenant of the monetary consequences described in this sentence), then commencing on the 6th day after such notice of default and continuing each day thereafter, Tenant agrees to pay as additional rent, the sum of $25.00 per day, until such certificate is returned.

ARTICLE 12: ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE

12.1 Use of Hazardous Substances. Tenant shall not use, store, generate, treat, sell or dispose, nor permit the use, storage, generation, treatment, selling or disposal (collectively, “Use”) of any Hazardous Substances in, on or about the Premises or the Total Building Facilities except in such amounts and of such types within the Premises as are permitted by Laws and which are commonly and customarily used in the cleaning, maintenance and operation of Tenant’s business in the Premises in accordance with the Permitted Uses. Tenant shall promptly comply with all Laws now or hereafter in force pertaining to Tenant’s Use of Hazardous Substances in, on or about the Premises. Tenant shall allow Landlord or Landlord’s agents or representatives to enter the Premises at all reasonable times to confirm Tenant’s compliance with all applicable Laws regarding Tenant’s Use of Hazardous Substances. In the event such inspection reveals any violation of any applicable Laws by Tenant regarding Hazardous Substances, then, in such event, any and all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s inspection of the Premises and Landlord’s monitoring of Tenant’s compliance with this Section, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, shall be deemed additional rent and shall be due and payable by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.

12.2 Hazardous Substances. The term “Hazardous Substances” shall mean any substance now or hereafter designated as, or containing components designated as, hazardous, dangerous, toxic or harmful and/or subject to regulation by any Law, including asbestos in any form, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, transformers or other equipment which contains dielectric fluid or other fluids containing levels of polychlorinated biphenyls in excess of 50 parts per million and petroleum products in any form.

12.3 Tenant Indemnity. Tenant shall indemnify, defend and save harmless Landlord, its partners, members, managers, agents and employees from Loss arising during the Term of this Lease or any time thereafter, as a result of Tenant’s breach of this Article 12.

A-11

ARTICLE 13: SIGNS

Tenant shall not erect or display any sign, logo, or advertising material outside the Premises (including on any exterior doors, or on the exterior walls of the Premises), or in any window of the Premises, without the prior written consent of Landlord. Landlord shall furnish, install and maintain a Building directory (listing Tenant as an occupant in the Building) at a location in or near the lobby of the Building. Landlord shall install a building standard suite tenant identification sign at the entrance to the Premises.

ARTICLE 14: LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO ALTER

Landlord shall have the right at any time (and from time to time) (i) to alter the size, area, level and location of hallways, entrances, parking areas, driveways, sidewalks, landscaped areas and all other portions of the Total Building Facilities, (ii) to construct additional stories on the Building, and additional buildings in the vicinity thereof, (iii) to permit owners or occupants of land outside the Building Land and their invitees to use the parking areas, roads and sidewalks on the Building Land, (iv) to relocate all or any part of any building or parking area, (v) to relocate the premises leased to any other tenant, (vi) to close the Building whenever it may be necessary to comply with any Law, in case of public disturbance, in case of an emergency situation involving the protection or security of the Building or its occupants or for any other reason which Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, shall deem proper, (vii) to change the name or street address of the Building or suite number of the Premises, (viii) to install, affix and maintain any signs in the interior or exterior of the Building, (ix) to grant to any person or to reserve to Landlord the exclusive right to conduct any business or render any service in the Building (but such action by Landlord shall not restrict Tenant’s ability to use the Premises for the Permitted Use), and (x) to take any other action Landlord deems reasonable in connection with the operation, maintenance or preservation of the Building. Landlord further reserves the right to run pipes, conduits and ducts through the Premises (provided any resulting reduction in usable area is insignificant), and to carry on work within the Premises and in the vicinity thereof (including the erection of scaffolding and barricades, provided reasonable access to the Premises is preserved); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, in connection with all such work, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts consistent with accepted construction practice to minimize interference with Tenant’s operations by reason thereof. The exercise of any such rights reserved to Landlord shall not be deemed to constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s possession of the Premises or give rise to any claim of damage, including any claim for set-off or abatement of Rent.

ARTICLE 15: DEFAULT

15.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Lease:

A. Tenant fails to pay when due any installment of Rent and such default shall continue for 10 days after written notice to Tenant;

B. Tenant breaches any other agreement, covenant or obligation herein set forth and such breach shall continue and not be remedied within 20 days (or such longer period as may reasonably be required to rectify such breach with the exercise of due diligence) after Landlord shall have given Tenant notice of such default;

C. Tenant fails to take prompt possession and move into the Premises when the Premises is ready for occupancy.

A-12

D. Tenant files (or has filed against it and not stayed or vacated within 60 days after filing) any petition or action for relief under any creditor's law (including bankruptcy, reorganization, or similar action), either in state or federal court; or

E. Tenant makes any transfer in fraud of creditors, has a receiver appointed for its assets (and such appointment shall not have been stayed or vacated within 30 days), or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors.

15.2 Landlord’s Remedies.

A. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, at its option and without waiving any other rights or remedies:

(1) At its option, by notice to Tenant, to terminate this Lease. Upon the service of such notice of termination, the Term shall automatically terminate.

(2) At its option, by notice to Tenant, to terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises without termination of this Lease.

(3) Upon (i) any termination of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or by the exercise of any option by Landlord to terminate the same or in any other manner whatsoever, or (ii) any termination of Tenant's right to possession without termination of this Lease, Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord and immediately vacate the same, and remove all effects therefrom, except such as may not be removed under other provisions of this Lease. If Tenant fails to surrender possession and vacate as aforesaid, Landlord may forthwith re-enter the Premises, and repossess itself thereof as in its former estate and expel and remove Tenant and any other persons and property therefrom, using such force as may be necessary, without being deemed guilty of trespass, eviction, conversion or forcible entry and without thereby waiving Landlord's rights to Rent or any other rights given Landlord under this Lease or at law or in equity. If Tenant shall not remove all effects from the Premises as hereinabove provided, Landlord may, at its option, remove any or all of such effects in any manner it shall choose and store the same without liability for loss thereof, and Tenant shall pay Landlord, on demand, any and all expenses incurred in such removal and storage of such effects for any length of time during which the same shall be in Landlord's possession or in storage. No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord, as provided in subparagraph (2) of this paragraph, shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless a notice of such intention is given to Tenant (all other demands and notices of forfeiture or other similar notices being hereby expressly waived by Tenant). Notwithstanding any reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach in the manner provided in this Section.

(4) At its option, to make such alterations and repairs as Landlord shall determine may be reasonably necessary to relet the Premises, and to relet the same or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term) and upon such terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable. Upon each reletting, all rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied as follows: first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due under this Lease from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such reletting, including brokerage fees and attorneys' fees and costs of such alterations and repairs, each of which fees and costs shall be reasonable in amount; and third, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any surplus of any sums received by Landlord on a reletting in excess of the Rent payable hereunder. If such rentals and other amounts received from such reletting during any month are less than those to be paid during that month by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord (notwithstanding the fact that Landlord may have received rental in excess of the Rent payable hereunder in previous or subsequent months), such deficiency to be calculated and payable monthly.

A-13

(5) At its option, to collect from Tenant any other loss or damage which Landlord may sustain by reason of any breach and any diminished value of the Premises resulting from such breach.

(6) Exercise all other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, including, without limitation, declaratory, injunctive or other equitable relief (and Tenant hereby waives any right to require that Landlord post a bond in connection therewith). All Landlord’s remedies shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and may be exercised and enforced concurrently. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies provided herein shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of any default by Tenant. Landlord may bring suits for amounts owed by Tenant hereunder or any portions thereof, as the same accrue or after the same have accrued, and no suit or recovering of any portion due hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to collect all amounts to which Landlord is entitled hereunder, nor shall the same serve as a defense of any subsequent suit brought for any amount not theretofore reduced to judgment. Landlord may pursue one or more remedies against Tenant and, if applicable, need not make an election of remedies until findings of fact are made by a court of competent jurisdiction.

15.3 Costs of Enforcement. If suit is brought to enforce this Lease, the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled to recover its costs of enforcement, including attorneys’ fees, applicable court costs, investigation and discovery costs and costs of appeal (if any).

15.4 Mitigation of Damages. If Landlord terminates this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession:

A. Landlord shall be required only to use reasonable good faith efforts to mitigate Landlord’s damages after regaining actual possession of the Premises, which reasonable good faith efforts shall not exceed such efforts as Landlord generally uses to lease other space in the Building;

B. Landlord will not be deemed to have failed to mitigate if Landlord leases any other comparable portions of the Building before reletting all or any portion of the Premises; and

C. Any failure to mitigate with respect to any period of time shall only reduce the Rent and other amounts to which Landlord is entitled hereunder by the reasonable rental value of the Premises during such period.

In recognition that the value of the Building depends on the rental rates and terms of leases therein, Landlord’s rejection of a prospective replacement tenant based on an offer of rentals below Landlord’s published rates for new leases of comparable space in the Building at the time in question, or at Landlord’s option, below the rates provided in this Lease, or containing terms less favorable than those contained herein, shall not give rise to a claim by Tenant that Landlord failed to mitigate Landlord’s damages.

A-14

15.5 Multiple Defaults.

A. If Tenant fails to pay the Rent by the 20th day of the month and by reason thereof, Landlord sends Tenant a notice of such default on 2 or more occasions during any 12 month period, regardless of whether any such default is cured, then, in addition to all other remedies otherwise available to Landlord, Tenant shall, within 10 days after demand by Landlord, post a security deposit in, or increase the existing Security Deposit by, a sum equal to 3 months’ installments of Base Rent. Any security deposit posted pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall be governed by Article 6 above.

B. Notwithstanding the notice and grace periods set forth in Section 15.1, if Landlord sends Tenant a notice of default under this Lease on more than 2 occasions during any 12 month period with respect to the same or a substantially similar default (e.g., repeated failures to pay monthly installments of Base Rent), then in addition to all other remedies available to Landlord, the necessity for Landlord to comply with any notice requirements or cure periods otherwise set forth in Section 15.1 shall be deemed waived by Tenant with respect to any subsequent default (whether similar or dissimilar) during such 12-month period.

15.6 Cessation of Business.

If Tenant shall vacate the Premises, or shall cease operating in the Premises for longer than 45 days, for a reason other than a Force Majeure, then Landlord may, at its option, at any time thereafter, and after providing tenant a 10 day written notice with opportunity to cure, may elect to terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant, and if Landlord so elects (i) this Lease shall terminate effective as of the date (“Termination Date”) which is 5 days after the date of Landlord’s termination notice, (ii) Tenant shall surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord on the Termination Date in the condition required by Section 7.6, (iii) the Rent shall be adjusted as of the Termination Date, and (iv) neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Lease thereafter, except those obligations which are intended to survive such termination; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, nothing set forth in this Section shall be construed to relieve Tenant of continuing liability if an Event of Default shall exist as of the Termination Date.

15.7 Right to Cure Defaults.

If Tenant fails to perform any agreement or obligation on its part to be performed under this Lease, Landlord shall have the right (i) if no emergency exists, to perform the same after giving 20 days notice to Tenant; and (ii) in any emergency situation to perform the same immediately without notice or delay. For the purpose of rectifying Tenant's defaults as aforesaid, Landlord shall have the right to enter the Premises. Tenant shall on demand reimburse Landlord for the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in rectifying Tenant’s defaults as aforesaid, including reasonable attorney's fees. Except for the intentional misconduct or negligence of Landlord, Landlord shall not be liable or in any way responsible for any loss, inconvenience, annoyance or damage resulting to Tenant or anyone holding under it for any action taken pursuant to this Section. Any act or thing done pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of any such default or a waiver of any covenant, term or condition herein contained or the performance thereof.

If all or any material part of the Building shall be condemned or conveyed in lieu of the threat of condemnation (collectively, a “Condemnation”), then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant within 30 days following the date of such Condemnation. If any material portion of the Premises shall be the subject of a Condemnation, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord within 30 days from the date of such Condemnation. In the event this Lease is not so terminated, then this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Landlord shall restore the remaining portions of the Building and Premises to a condition comparable to its condition immediately prior to such Condemnation (less the portion lost in the taking).

18.8 Non-Waiver. Neither acceptance of Rent by Landlord or failure by Landlord to complain of any default of Tenant shall constitute a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights hereunder, and no endorsement or statement on any check or on any letter accompanying any check shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction. Waiver of any breach of any provision herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision herein contained. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the party to be charged therewith. Receipt by Landlord of Tenant’s keys to the Premises shall not constitute an acceptance of surrender of the Premises.

In addition to the Base Rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent on the first day of each month in advance, commencing January 1 of the “Initial Operating Expenses Year” (as described in Section 1.9 of the Lease), an amount (the “Expense Charge”) which is equal to one-twelfth of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the amount by which the Operating Expenses, as estimated for such year by Landlord, exceed the actual Operating Expenses for the “Base Year” set forth in Section 1.8 of the Lease. Tenant’s Expense Charge for each succeeding calendar year shall be estimated by Landlord and notice of such estimate shall be furnished to Tenant from time to time. Within 20 days after receipt of such estimate, Tenant shall pay Landlord any deficiency in Tenant’s Expense Charge for that year, and subsequent installments of Tenant’s Expense Charge for that year shall be based on such estimate by Landlord. By April 30 of each calendar year or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall determine the actual Operating Expenses for the preceding calendar year (and Tenant’s actual Expense Charge) and furnish to Tenant a statement thereof (“Expense Statement”). If the total Expense Charge paid by Tenant in such calendar year exceeds Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the actual increase in Operating Expenses for such calendar year (as disclosed in the Expense Statement), then (provided Tenant is not in default) such excess shall be credited toward future installments of Tenant’s Expense Charge until exhausted, unless the Lease Term shall have expired, in which event, Landlord shall (provided all amounts owing by Tenant to Landlord have been paid) refund such excess to Tenant within 30 days after such amount is known. If Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the actual increase in Operating Expenses exceeds the Expense Charge paid by Tenant in such calendar year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord in one (1) lump sum within 20 days of receipt of Landlord’s Expense Statement. In the event that the Lease Term ends on a day other than the last day of a calendar year the amount of Tenant’s Expense Charge for such partial calendar year shall be pro rated based on the number of days in such partial calendar year. Tenant’s obligation to pay Tenant’s Expense Charge shall survive the expiration of this Lease.

CONSTRUCTION EXHIBIT

1. Landlord’s Work. Subject to the terms of this Exhibit and the Lease, Landlord will perform the following work (“Landlord’s Work”) with respect to the Premises:

A. Plans. In co-operation with Tenant, Landlord has caused a floor plan of the Premises to be prepared, depicting the layout of the Premises, including the location of doors, walls and partitions (the “Floor Plan”). A copy of the Floor Plan has been initialed by the parties to signify their approval thereof. Tenant shall timely furnish an architect designated by Landlord (the “Architect”) with such information and guidance with respect to Tenant’s requirements for the design of the Premises (which shall be consistent with the Floor Plan) as the Architect may require from time to time, it being agreed that in any event any such requested information shall be supplied within 5 days after written request. Based on such input supplied by Tenant, Landlord shall cause the Architect to prepare plans and specifications (the “Construction Plans”) describing “Landlord’s Construction Work” (defined below), which shall be consistent with the Floor Plan and shall include (a) furniture plans showing details of space occupancy, (b) reflected ceiling plans, (c) partition and door location plans, (d) telephone, security and electrical plans (noting any special lighting and power load requirements), and (e) finish plans, schedules and specifications for Landlord’s Work. Tenant agrees that the Construction Plans are based upon information supplied by Tenant, and accordingly, Landlord shall not be liable for any omission from the Construction Plans or for any design defect in the Construction Plans. The Construction Plans shall be subject to Tenant’s and Landlord’s respective approvals, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant shall respond to submissions of the Construction Plans (or any components thereof) within 7 days after Tenant’s receipt of the same; otherwise, such submissions shall be deemed approved by Tenant. The term “Plans Costs” shall mean all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the preparation of the Floor Plan and Construction Plans, including, without limitation, the fees of the Architect.

B. Governmental Approvals. Promptly after the date Landlord and Tenant approve in writing the Construction Plans, Landlord will submit the Construction Plans, if necessary, to the applicable Governmental Authorities for review and approval and will obtain all governmental approvals, permits and licenses (collectively, the “Governmental Approvals”) required for the construction of Landlord’s Construction Work. The term “Governmental Approvals Costs” shall mean all costs incurred by Landlord in obtaining the Governmental Approvals.

C. Landlord’s Construction Work. Promptly after Landlord obtains all Governmental Approvals, a general contractor designated by Landlord (“Landlord’s Contractor”) will construct improvements in the Premises substantially in accordance with the Construction Plans (“Landlord’s Construction Work”), EXCEPT that Landlord’s Construction Work shall not include the following, all of which shall be performed by Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, (a) all work designated on the Construction Plans as “Tenant’s Work,” and (b) the installation of all of Tenant’s Property in the Premises. The term “Landlord’s Construction Work Costs” shall mean all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s Construction Work, including a Landlord’s construction supervisory fee not to exceed 1%of the Landlord’s Construction Work Costs (exclusive of such supervisory fee).

3. Change Orders. Upon Tenant’s request and submission by Tenant (at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) of the necessary information and/or plans and specifications for changes in Landlord’s Construction Work from that specified in the Construction Plans (“Changes”), Landlord may, at its election, incorporate such Changes into Landlord’s Construction Work, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense if the Changes increase Landlord’s Work Costs. Landlord’s consent to Changes shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, prior to commencing any Changes in Landlord’s Construction Work requested by Tenant, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a written statement of the cost of such Changes and overhead and a proposed Tenant Extra Order (the “TEO”) for such Changes in the standard form then in use by Landlord. If Tenant shall fail to enter into such TEO within one week after Tenant’s receipt thereof, Landlord may proceed to do only Landlord’s Construction Work as specified in the Construction Plans. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, concurrently with its execution of the TEO, the entire net increase in “Cost of the Changes” as shown in the statement delivered by Landlord. As used herein “Cost of Changes” shall include, without limitation, the actual construction cost plus design costs and permit fees, together with an administrative fee to Landlord equal to 5% of the other Cost of Changes. Landlord shall not be required to consent to any Changes which would result in a postponement of the Commencement Date, unless Tenant agrees that the Commencement Date will occur on the date it would have otherwise occurred, but for the Changes.

4. Tenant’s Work. Subject to the terms of this Exhibit and the Lease, Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall perform the following work (“Tenant’s Work”) in the Premises: (a) perform all work designated on the Construction Plans as “Tenant’s Work,” (b) install all of Tenant’s Property in the Premises, and (c) perform all other work (other than Landlord’s Work) required to open the Premises for business.

Landlord will expend for Landlord’s performance of Landlord's Work a tenant finish allowance (“Allowance”) equal to the lesser of (i) the “Maximum Allowance” (as set forth in Section 1.19 of the Lease) or (ii) Landlord’s Work Costs. Landlord and Tenant hereby approve the preliminary plans and scope of work attached hereto as Exhibit D-1 (together, the “Preliminary Plans”) which have been prepared by Landlord’s contractor with guidance and input from Tenant. Tenant acknowledges that the Preliminary Plans include certain upgraded finishes and work which result in the projected Landlord Work Costs to exceed the Allowance. Tenant agrees to pay for these upgrades, totaling $47,070.00 (the “Excess”), plus the cost of any other changes to the Landlord’s Construction Work as set forth on the Preliminary Plans. Tenant shall pay the Excess to Landlord prior to Landlord commencing Landlord’s Construction Work. Tenant agree that the Construction Plans will be prepared consistent with and will incorporate the Preliminary Plans.

If at any time such entry shall cause or threaten to cause such disharmony or interference, including labor disharmony, Landlord may withdraw such license upon twenty-four (24) hours’ prior written notice to Tenant, in which case, Tenant shall immediately discontinue Tenant’s Work until the resolution of any such labor dispute, it being agreed that such labor disruption shall be deemed a Tenant Delay if caused by Tenant’s contractors, subcontractors, material suppliers, agents or employees.

(d) Tenant shall comply with Landlord’s reasonable construction rules and regulations.

Landlord shall not be liable for any injury, loss or damage which may occur to any of Tenant’s Work or to property placed in the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, the same being at Tenant’s sole risk and liability.

In the event the performance of Tenant’s Work causes Landlord to incur extra costs, such as the cost of furnishing after hours heating and cooling to the Premises, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such extra cost.
