SUPPLEMENTAL LEASE PROVISIONS
ARTICLE I
TERM AND POSSESSION
SECTION 1.1 LEASE OF PREMISES, COMMENCEMENT AND EXPIRATION.
1.101 Lease of Premises. In consideration of the mutual covenants herein,
Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from
Landlord, subject to all the terms and conditions of this Lease, the
portion of the Building (as described in Item 1 of the Basic Lease
Provisions) described as the Premises in Item 2 of the Basic Lease
Provisions and that is more particularly described by the
crosshatched area on Exhibit A attached hereto (hereinafter called
(the "Premises"). The agreed rentable area of the Premises is hereby
stipulated to be the "Agreed Rentable Area" of the Premises set
forth in Item 2.b of the Basic Lease Provisions, irrespective of
whether the same should be more or less as a result of minor
variations resulting from construction of Tenant's Improvements (as
defined in the Work Letter (herein so called) attached hereto as
Exhibit C). The agreed rentable area of the Building is hereby
stipulated to be the "Agreed Rentable Area" of the Building set
forth in Item 1.b of the Basic Lease Provisions, irrespective of
whether the same should be more or less as a result of minor
variations resulting from actual construction or repair of the
Building. Landlord also grants Tenant a non-exclusive license for
the Term to use the Common Areas (as hereinafter defined) of the
Building in common with others entitled to use the Common Areas,
including, without limitation, Landlord, other tenants of the
Building and their respective employees and invitees, and other
persons authorized by Landlord, subject to the terms and conditions
of this Lease and the rules and regulations applicable to the Common
Areas.
1.102 Initial Term and Commencement. The initial term of this Lease shall
be the period of time specified in Item 6 of the Basic Lease
Provisions. The initial term shall commence on the Commencement Date
(herein so called) set forth in Item 7 of the Basic Lease Provisions
(as such Commencement Date may be adjusted pursuant to Sections 4
and $ of the Work Letter) and, unless sooner terminated pursuant to
the terms of this Lease, the initial term shall expire, without
notice to Tenant, on the Expiration Date (herein so called) set
forth in Item 8 of the Basic Lease Provisions (as such Expiration
Date may be adjusted pursuant to Sections 4 and 5 of the Work
Letter). As used in this Lease, "Term" shall mean the Initial Term
and any validly exercised Renewal Term (as defined in Rider 1
attached hereto).
SECTION 1.2 INSPECTION AND DELIVERY OF PREMISES, CONSTRUCTION OF LEASE SPACE
IMPROVEMENTS AND POSSESSION.
1.201 Delivery and Completion. Tenant hereby acknowledges that Tenant has
inspected the Premises and the Common Areas (as hereinafter defined)
and, except for latent defects discovered and reported to Landlord
by Tenant within one hundred eighty (180) days from the Commencement
Date, hereby (i) accepts the Common Areas in "as is" condition for
all purposes, subject to Landlord's completion of its obligations
under the Work Letter and (ii) subject to Landlord's completion of
its obligations under the Work Letter, accepts the Premises
(including the suitability of the Premises for the Permitted Use)
for all purposes. Tenant will perform or cause to be performed the
work and/or construction of Tenant's Improvements (as defined in the
Work Letter) in accordance with the terms of the Work Letter and
will use reasonable efforts to Substantially Complete (as defined in
the Work Letter) Tenant's Improvements by the Commencement Date set
forth in Item 7 of the Basic Lease Provisions. If Tenant's
Improvements are not Substantially Complete by the Commencement Date
set forth in Item 7 of the Basic Lease Provisions for any reason
whatsoever (including, without limitation, because of any delays
caused by Landlord), Tenant's sole remedy shall be an adjustment of
the Commencement Date and the Expiration Date to the extent
permitted under Sections 4 and 5 of the Work Letter.
1
11
1.202 Acceptance of Premises Memorandum. Upon Substantial Completion (as
defined in the Work Letter) of Tenant's Improvements, Landlord and
Tenant shall execute the Acceptance of Premises Memorandum (herein
so called) attached hereto as Exhibit D. If Tenant occupies the
Premises without executing an Acceptance of Premises Memorandum,
Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Premises for all
purposes and Substantial Completion shall be deemed to have occurred
on the earlier to occur of (i) actual occupancy or (ii) the
Commencement Date set forth in Item 7 of the Basic Lease Provisions.
SECTION 1.3 REDELIVERY OF THE PREMISES. Upon the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease or upon the exercise by Landlord of its right to
re-enter the Premises without terminating this Lease and subject to Tenant's
remaining obligations under this Section, Tenant shall immediately deliver to
Landlord the Premises, ordinary wear and tear excepted, but free of offensive
odors and in a safe, clean, neat, sanitary and operational condition, together
with all keys and parking and access cards. Tenant shall (i) within seven (7)
days after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, remove from the
Premises, at the sole expense of Tenant and unless Landlord is asserting its
lien rights therein, any equipment, machinery, trade fixtures and personalty
installed or placed in the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant and (ii) if
requested by Landlord for improvements designated at the time Landlord grants
consent to the construction or installation of the Tenant Improvements, (a)
remove all or any part of said improvements made to and conduit installed in the
Premises or the Building by or on behalf of Tenant and (b) restore the Premises
to the condition existing prior to the installation of such improvements. All
removals and work described above shall be accomplished in a good and
workmanlike manner and shall be conducted in a fashion so as not to damage the
Premises or the Building or any portion thereof. Tenant shall, at its expense,
promptly repair any damage caused by any such removal or work. If Tenant fails
to deliver the Premises in the condition aforesaid, then Landlord may restore
the Premises to such a condition at Tenant's expense. All property required to
be removed pursuant to this Section not removed within the time period required
hereunder shall thereupon be conclusively presumed to have been abandoned by
Tenant and Landlord may, at its option, take over possession of such property
and either (a) declare the same to be the property of Landlord by written notice
to Tenant at the address provided herein or (b) at the sole cost and expense of
Tenant, remove and store and/or dispose of the same or any pan thereof in any
manner that Landlord shall choose without incurring liability to Tenant or any
other person.
SECTION 1.4 HOLDING OVER. In the event Tenant or any party under Tenant claiming
rights to this Lease, retains possession of the Premises after the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease, such possession shall constitute and be
construed as a tenancy at will only, subject, however, to all of the terms,
provisions, covenants and agreements on the pan of Tenant hereunder; such
parties shall be subject to immediate eviction and removal and Tenant or any
such party shall pay Landlord as rent for the period of such holdover an amount
equal to the greater of (i) one and one-half (1.5) times the Basic Annual Rent
and Additional Rent (as hereinafter defined) in effect immediately preceding
expiration or termination, as applicable, prorated on a daily basis or (ii) the
then prevailing market rental rate, prorated on a daily basis. Landlord and
Tenant agree that they have included the foregoing provision for liquidated
damages because the actual damages to be incurred by Landlord can reasonably be
expected to approximate the amount of liquidated damages called for herein and
because the actual amount of such damages would be difficult if not impossible
to measure accurately. Tenant shall also pay and agrees to indemnify and hold
Landlord harmless from any and all damages sustained by Landlord as a result of
such holdover. The rent during such holdover period shall be payable to Landlord
in accordance with the provisions of Article 2. Tenant will vacate the Premises
and deliver same to Landlord within fourteen (14) days after Landlord's delivery
of written notice to Tenant to vacate the Premises. No holding over by Tenant,
whether with or without consent of Landlord, shall operate to extend the term of
this Lease; no payments of money by Tenant to Landlord after the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease shall reinstate, continue or extend the term
of this Lease; and no extension of this Lease after the expiration or earlier
termination thereof shall be valid unless and until the same shall be reduced to
writing and signed by both Landlord and Tenant.

prepare and deliver to Tenant a statement showing Tenant's actual
Additional Rent for the applicable calendar year, provided that with
respect to the calendar year in which the Expiration Date occurs,
(x) that calendar year shall be deemed to have commenced on January
1 of that year and ended on the Expiration Date (the "Final Calendar
Year") and (y) Landlord shall have the right to estimate the actual
Operating Expenses allocable to the Final Calendar Year but which
are not determinable within such 120 day period. If Tenant's total
monthly payments of Additional Rent for the applicable year are less
than Tenant's actual Additional Rent, then Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the amount of such underpayment. If Tenant's total monthly
payments of Additional Rent for the applicable year are more than
Tenant's actual Additional Rent, then Landlord shall credit against
the next Additional Rent payment or payments due from Tenant the
amount of such overpayment; provided, however, with respect to the
Final Calendar Year, Landlord shall pay to Tenant the amount of such
excess payments, less any amounts then owed to Landlord. Unless
Tenant takes written exception to any item within ninety (90) days
after the furnishing of an annual statement, such statement shall be
considered as final and accepted by Tenant. Any amount due Landlord
as shown on any such statement shall be paid by Tenant within thirty
(30) days after it is furnished to Tenant.
2.204 Revisions in Estimated Additional Rent. If Real Estate Taxes,
utility expenses or Additional Pass Through Costs increase during a
calendar year (based on new information and supporting documentation
from actual or anticipated operations of the Building) or if the
number of square feet of rentable area in the Premises increases,
Landlord may revise the estimated Additional Rent during such year
by giving Tenant written notice to that effect and thereafter Tenant
shall pay to Landlord, in each of the remaining months of such year,
an additional amount equal to the amount of such increase in the
estimated Additional Rent divided by the number of months remaining
in such year.
SECTION 2.3 RENT DEFINED AND NO OFFSETS. Basic Annual Rent, Additional Rent and
all other sums (whether or not expressly designated as rent) required to be paid
to Landlord by Tenant under this Lease (including, without limitation, any sums
payable to Landlord under any addendum, exhibit, rider or schedule attached
hereto) shall constitute rent and are sometimes collectively referred to as
"Rent." Each payment of Rent shall be paid by Tenant when due, without prior
demand therefor and without deduction or setoff, except as specifically set
forth in Sections 5.202, 7.1 and 8.3.
SECTION 2.4 LATE CHARGES. If any installment of Basic Annual Rent or Additional
Rent or any other payment of Rent under this Lease shall not be paid when due, a
"Late Charge" of five cents (5.05) per dollar so overdue may be charged by
Landlord to defray Landlord's administrative expense incident to the handling of
such overdue payments. Each Late Charge shall be payable on demand.

with Landlord on the same prorata percentages and for the same time frames with
respect to any future finish allowance given to Tenant in connection with an
expansion or other addition to the Premises. Tenant shall not be entitled to
interest thereon and Landlord may commingle such Security Deposit with any other
funds of Landlord. The Security Deposit shall not be considered an advance
payment of rental or a measure of Landlord's damages in case of default by
Tenant. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, Landlord
may, but shall not be required to, from time to time, without prejudice to any
other remedy, draw on any letter of credit and use, apply or retain all or any
part of this Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in
default or for the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or
become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant's default or to compensate
Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of
Tenant's default, including, without limitation, costs and attorneys' fees
incurred by Landlord to recover possession of the Premises. If Tenant is not in
default of the Lease on the fourth anniversary of the Commencement Date, the
Security Deposit shall be reduced to $0.00 and any letter of credit shall
promptly be returned to Tenant. Tenant agrees that it will not assign or
encumber or attempt to assign or encumber the monies deposited herein as the
Security Deposit and that Landlord and its successors and assigns shall not be
bound by any such actual or attempted assignment or encumbrance. Regardless of
any assignment of this Lease by Tenant, Landlord may return the Security Deposit
to the original Tenant, in the absence of evidence satisfactory to Landlord of
an assignment of the right to receive the Security Deposit or any part of the
balance thereof.

as Landlord reasonably deems necessary for the comfortable
occupancy of the Premises, subject to events of force majeure
and to any governmental requirements, ordinances, rules,
regulations, guidelines or standards relating to, among other
things, energy conservation. Landlord shall, on a continuous

constant temperature (+/-5(0) F.) selected from temperatures
in a range from 42 - 48 F. The specific temperature may be
changed by Landlord from time to time within the range
indicated in the preceding sentence.
(b) After Hours HVAC. If Tenant requires HVAC to the Premises
during times other than the hours stated above, Landlord shall
make such services available upon request by Tenant if

meters are called "BTU Meters"). The BTU Meters measure the
energy consumed by the HVAC Equipment by British Thermal Units
("BTUs"). As part of Additional Rent, Tenant will pay
Landlord, monthly, the cost of the energy consumed by the HVAC
Equipment ("Monthly Submetered BTU Charges"), which cost shall
be the product of (x) the BTUs consumed during such month by
the HVAC Equipment (as evidenced by the BTU Meters),
multiplied by (y) the per hour amount then charged to tenants
in the Building generally, but not to exceed Landlord's then
current actual cost, which rate is currently $8.56 per
1,000,000 BTUs per hour.
5.103 Electricity.
(a) Consumption. Landlord shall furnish to the Premises electric
current for normal office purposes at the electrical panel on

Tenant's responsibility for Excess Consumption Costs, Tenant
shall not (i) without the express prior written consent of
Landlord (except as provided below), install or use or permit
the installation or use of any computer or electronic data
processing equipment or any other electrical equipment which
(singly) requires a voltage other than 120 volts single phase
or otherwise has high electrical consumption or (ii) use
electric current in excess of the capacity of the feeders or

at Tenant's expense and as part of Tenant's Improvements,
install or cause to be installed, maintain and repair
submeters. All electrical lines to or panel boxes for the
Premises that are submetered are herein referred to as
"Submetered Lines," and each such submeter which measures
electrical consumption of the Submetered Lines or the Premises
is herein referred to as a "Submeter." As a part of Additional
Rent, Tenant shall pay Landlord the Excess Consumption Costs,
which shall be equal to the kilowatt hours of Excess
Consumption multiplied by the then current cost per kilowatt
hour of electricity charged by the electric utility provider
to the Building. Billing for metered electricity will be on an
actual cost basis from the electric utility without xxxx-up to
Landlord.
(c) UPS. Landlord shall also furnish, twenty-four (24) hours a

prior written approval, circuits within the Premises to
connect to the UPS. All requirements for UPS will be
separately metered and billed to the Tenant as additional

alternate electrical power supply to the Premises from standby
generators located in the Building ("Building Backup
Generators"). Such alternate supply shall be used only in case
the Building's normal power supply is interrupted or during
temporary, scheduled testing of such equipment, or as deemed
necessary by Landlord. Such power supply shall be sufficient
to supply, under normal operating conditions, electrical power
adequate for the operation of the Building, subject to the
limitations described herein, and the Premises. For purposes
of this 5.103(c), the total power requirements for all
equipment in the Premises,
10

In the event Tenant desires to exceed the 111 kVA limit,
Tenant must obtain the written approval of Landlord and, if
approved (and subject to availability), Tenant shall pay a
one-time charge of Landlord's cost to provide such additional
power, which cost is currently $750 per kVA. The Building
Back-up Generators shall be maintained so as to start up and
operate automatically in the event of interruption of normal
power supply, and shall provide emergency power to all
Building systems on a priority basis. As generator capacity
becomes available, the system begins loading the critical load
groups in order of priority. The system will not add load
unless generator capacity is available. Those Building systems
receiving priority in order of their importance are fire and
life safety systems, elevator systems, chilled water and
building automation systems, UPS power and data center floors
of the Building. Tenant acknowledges that in the event of an
emergency, the Building Back-up Generators may be required to

discretion. Tenant shall provide to Landlord written plans and
specifications for the Tenant fire suppression system. All wiring
and other improvements necessary for the system outside of the
Building fire alarm closet, including (without limitation) control
wires for indication of system alarm, system trouble, system tamper,

SECTION 5.2 SERVICE INTERRUPTION.
5.201 Service Interruption. Landlord shall not be liable for and, except
as provided in subsection 5.202 below, Tenant shall not be entitled
to any abatement or reduction of Rent by reason of, Landlord's
failure to maintain temperature or electrical constancy levels or to
furnish any of the foregoing services when such failure is caused by
accident, breakage, repairs, strikes, lockouts or other labor
disturbance or labor dispute of any character, governmental
regulation, moratorium or other governmental action, inability by
exercise of reasonable diligence to obtain electricity, water or
fuel, or by any other cause beyond Landlord's reasonable control
(collectively, "Uncontrollable Events"), nor shall any such
Uncontrollable Event or results or effects thereof be construed as
an eviction (constructive or actual) of Tenant or as a breach of any
implied warranty, or relieve Tenant front the obligation to perform
any covenant or agreement herein and in no event shall Landlord be
liable for damage to persons or property (including, without
limitation, business interruption), or be in default hereunder, as a
result of any such Uncontrollable Event or results or effects
thereof. However, promptly upon any interruption, curtailment,
stoppage or suspension of services and/or utilities to be furnished
by Landlord under Section 5.1, Landlord will commence diligent good
faith efforts to restore same and will diligently proceed with such
efforts until such services and/or utilities are restored.
5.202 Limited Right to Abatement of Rent. If any portion of the Premises
becomes unfit for occupancy because Landlord fails to deliver any
service as required under Section 5.1 above for any period (other
than a reconstruction period conducted pursuant to Section 7.1 or
Article 8 below) exceeding five (5) consecutive days after written
notice by Tenant to Landlord and provided such failure is not caused
by Tenant, Tenant's contractors or any of their respective agents or
employees, Tenant shall be entitled to a fair partial abatement of
Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent for any such portion of the
Premises from the expiration of such five (5) consecutive day period
until such service is restored. If the failure to furnish services
which causes the Premises to be unfit for occupancy is caused by the
failure of Landlord, its employees, agents or contractors, to
perform Landlord's duties under this Lease and is not cured within
thirty (30) consecutive days after receipt of Tenant's notice to
Landlord, or if the failure to furnish services which causes the
Premises to be unfit for occupancy is not caused by such failure and
is not cured within ninety (90) consecutive days after receipt of
Tenant's notice to Landlord, then Tenant at its option may terminate
this Lease and all of its obligations for the remaining balance of
the Term by delivering notice to Landlord within ten (10) days after
the applicable thirty (30) consecutive day period or ninety (90)
consecutive day period, as the case may be. For purposes of this
Section 5.202, the term "unfit for occupancy" shall mean the
Premises cannot reasonably be used for its then current Permitted
Use.

reserves the right and at all times shall have the right to repair,
change, redecorate, alter, improve, modify, renovate, enclose or
make additions to any, part of the Property (including, without
limitation, structural elements and load bearing elements within the
Premises) and to enclose and/or change the arrangement and/or
location of driveways or parking areas or landscaping or other
Common Areas of the Property, all without being held guilty of an
actual or constructive eviction of Tenant or breach of any implied
warranty and without an abatement of Rent (the "Reserved Right").
Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Landlord's Reserved Right shall include, but not be limited to, the
right to do any of the following: (i) erect and construct
scaffolding, pipe, conduit and other structures on, within and
outside of the Premises when reasonably required by the nature of
the changes, alterations, improvements, modifications, renovations
and/or additions being performed, (ii) repair, change, renovate,

consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. All Installations shall be at
Tenant's sole cost and expense. Without in any way limiting

Installations and approves such contractor's insurance coverage to
be provided in connection with the work, (b) Landlord approves final
and complete plans and specifications for the work and (c) the
appropriate governmental agency, if any, has approved the plans and

claims, causes of action and liens arising from or in connection
with any Installations performed by or on behalf of Tenant. All

engineers) of any of Tenant's contractors or Tenant's drawings.
plans or specifications which are prepared in connection with any
construction of improvements (including, without limitation,

which they relate, for any use, purpose or condition.

ARTICLE 7
INSURANCE, FIRE AND CASUALTY
SECTION 7.1 TOTAL OR PARTIAL DESTRUCTION OF THE BUILDING OR THE PREMISES. In the
event that the Building is totally destroyed by fire or other casualty or in the
event the Building (or any portion thereof) is so damaged that the Premises will
be, in Landlord's reasonable opinion, unfit for occupancy (as defined in Section
5.202 hereof) for a period exceeding one hundred eighty (180) days after the
date of such damage, Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease, in which event
Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated during the unexpired
portion of this Lease effective with the date of such damage. Landlord or Tenant
shall exercise the termination right pursuant to the preceding sentence, if at
all, by delivering written notice of termination within ten (10) days after
Landlord's determination given to Tenant in writing that the repairs cannot be
completed within such one hundred eighty (180) day period. In the event the
Building or the Premises are damaged by fire or other casualty and, in
Landlord's reasonable opinion, the Premises can be made tenantable within one
hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such damage, or if the damage is
more serious but neither Landlord nor Tenant elects to terminate this Lease
pursuant to this Section, in either such event Landlord shall, within sixty (60)
days after the date of such damage, commence rebuilding or repairing the
Building and the Premises (including Tenant's Improvements), but only to the
extent of insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord for such repairs, to
substantially the same condition which existed immediately prior to the
happening of the casualty. Landlord shall allow Tenant a fair diminution of
Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent during the time the Premises are unfit for
occupancy; provided, that if such casualty was caused by Tenant, its agents,
employees, or contractors, Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated
only to the extent Landlord is compensated for such Basic Annual Rent and
Additional Rent by loss of rents insurance, if any. Notwithstanding any
provision or inference herein to the contrary, Landlord's obligation to restore
the Building and the Premises is expressly limited to the amount of casualty
insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord. Without limiting the preceding
sentence, Tenant understands and agrees that if any mortgagee under a deed of
trust, security agreement or mortgage on the Building should require that the
insurance proceeds be used to retire or reduce the mortgage debt or if the
insurance company issuing Landlord's fire and casualty insurance policy fails or
refuses to pay Landlord the proceeds under such policy, Landlord shall have no
obligation to rebuild and this Lease shall terminate upon notice by Landlord to
Tenant. Any insurance which may be carried by Landlord or Tenant against loss or
damage to the Building or to the Premises shall be for the sole benefit of the
party carrying such insurance and under its sole control.

7.202 Other Requirements of Insurance. All such insurance will be issued
and underwritten by companies reasonably acceptable to Landlord and
will contain endorsements that (a) such insurance may not lapse with
respect to Landlord or Property Manager or be canceled or amended
with respect to Landlord or Property Manager without the insurance
company giving Landlord and Property Manager at least thirty (30)
days prior written notice of such cancellation or amendment, (b)
Tenant will be solely responsible for payment of premiums, (c) in
the event of payment of any loss covered by such policy, Landlord or
Landlord's designees will be paid first by the insurance company for

and/or the Premises) and (d) Tenant's insurance is primary in the
event of overlapping coverage which may be carried by Landlord.

Tenant shall deliver to Landlord renewals thereof at least thirty
(30) days prior to the expiration of the respective policy terms.
SECTION 7.3 LANDLORD'S INSURANCE.
7.301 Types of Coverage. Landlord covenants and agrees that from and after
the date of delivery of the Premises from Landlord to Tenant,
Landlord will carry and maintain, at its sole cost and expense, the
insurance set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subsection.

injury, broad form property damage, operations hazard and

the requirements of this Section 7.3 are otherwise satisfied. Tenant
shall have no rights in any policy or policies maintained by
Landlord.
SECTION 7.4 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Landlord and Tenant each hereby waives any
rights it may have against the other (including, but not limited to, a direct
action for damages) on account of any loss or damage occasioned to Landlord or
Tenant, as the case may be (even if such loss or damage is caused by the fault,
negligence or other tortious conduct, acts or omissions of the released party or
the released party's directors, employees, agents or invitees), to their
respective property, the Premises, its contents or to any other portion of the
Building or the Property arising from any risk covered by the fire and extended
coverage property insurance required to be carried by Tenant and Landlord,
respectively, under subsections 7.201(b) and 7.301(b) above or, if the coverage
provided thereby is broader, the fire and extended property insurance actually
carried by the damaged
16
26
party. Without in any way limiting the foregoing waivers and to the extent
permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto each, on behalf of their
respective insurance companies insuring the property of either Landlord or
Tenant against any such loss, waive any right of subrogation that Landlord or
Tenant or their respective insurers may have against the other party or their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents or invitees and all rights of
their respective insurance companies based upon an assignment from its insured.
Each party to this Lease agrees immediately to give to each such insurance
company written notification of the terms of the mutual waivers contained in
this Section and to have said insurance policies properly endorsed, if
necessary, to prevent the invalidation of said insurance coverage by reason of
said waivers. The foregoing waiver shall be effective whether or not the parties
maintain the required insurance.
SECTION 7.5 INDEMNITY. Tenant will indemnify and hold Landlord, Property Manager
and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents harmless from,
and reimburse Landlord for and with respect to, all claims, demands, actions,
damages, loss liabilities, judgments, costs and expenses, including without
limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and court costs (each a "Claim" and
collectively the "Claims") which (i) are suffered by, recovered from or asserted
against Landlord, (ii) are not paid by insurance carried by Tenant or Landlord
(without in any way affecting the requirements of or Landlord's rights under
subsection 7.202(d) above) and (iii) arise from or in connection with (a) the
use or occupancy of the Premises and/or any accident, injury or damage occurring
in or at the Premises or (b) any breach by Tenant of any representation or
covenant in this Lease; provided, however, such indemnification of Landlord by
Tenant shall not include any Claim waived by Landlord under Section 7.4 above or
any Claim to the extent caused by the negligence, gross negligence or willful
misconduct of Landlord. Landlord will indemnify and hold Tenant, its officers,
directors, employees and agents harmless from, and reimburse Tenant for and with
respect to, all Claims which (i) are suffered by, recovered from or asserted
against Tenant, (ii) are not paid by insurance carried by Tenant or Landlord,

ARTICLE 8
CONDEMNATION
SECTION 8.1 CONDEMNATION RESULTING IN CONTINUED USE NOT FEASIBLE. If the
Property or any portion thereof that, in Landlord's reasonable opinion, is
necessary to the continued efficient and/or economically feasible use of the
Property shall be taken or condemned in whole or in part for public purposes, or
sold to a condemning authority in lieu of taking, then the term of this Lease
shall, at the option of Landlord, forthwith cease and terminate.
SECTION 8.2 TOTAL CONDEMNATION OF PREMISES. In the event that all or
substantially all of the Premises is taken or condemned or sold in lieu thereof
or if Tenant will be unable to use a substantial portion of the Premises or it
is reasonably anticipated that safe and reasonable access to the Building will
not be available or that Tenant's use of the Premises in the manner used
immediately prior to such taking will be substantially impaired for a period of
one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days by reason of a taking, either Landlord
or Tenant may terminate this Lease by delivering written notice thereof to the
other within ten (10) business days after notice of the taking, condemnation or
sale in lieu thereof to be effective as of the date of such taking, condemnation
or sale in lieu thereof.
SECTION 8.3 CONDEMNATION WITHOUT TERMINATION. If upon a taking or condemnation
or sale in lieu of the taking of all or less than all of the Property which (a)
does not give either Landlord or Tenant the right to terminate this Lease or (b)
gives either Landlord or Tenant the right to terminate this Lease pursuant to
Section 8.1 or 8.2 above and neither Landlord nor Tenant elect to exercise such
termination right, then this Lease shall continue in full force and effect,
provided that, if the taking, condemnation or sale includes any portion of the
Premises, the Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent shall be redetermined on the
basis of the remaining square feet of Agreed Rentable Area of the Premises.
Landlord, at Landlord's sole option and expense, shall restore and reconstruct
the Building to substantially its former condition to the extent that the same
may be reasonably feasible, but such work shall not be required to exceed the
scope of the work done by Landlord in originally constructing
17
27
the Building, nor shall Landlord in any event be required to spend for such work
an amount in excess of the amount received by Landlord as compensation or
damages (over and above amounts going to the mortgagee of the property taken)
for the part of the Building or the Premises so taken.
SECTION 8.4 CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS. Landlord shall receive the entire award
(which shall include sales proceeds) payable as a result of a condemnation,
taking or sale in lieu thereof. Tenant hereby expressly assigns to Landlord any
and all right, title and interest of Tenant now or hereafter arising in and to
any such award. Tenant shall, however, have the right to recover from such
authority through a separate award which does not reduce Landlord's award, any
compensation as may be awarded to Tenant on account of moving and relocation
expenses and depreciation to and removal of Tenant's physical property.
ARTICLE 9
LIENS
Tenant shall keep the Premises free from all liens arising out of any work
performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or for Tenant and
Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from, and reimburse Landlord
for and with respect to, any and all claims, causes of action, damages, expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees), arising from or in connection with any
such liens. In the event that Tenant shall not, within ten (10) days following
notification to Tenant of the imposition of any such lien, cause the same to be
released of record by payment or the posting of a bond in amount, form and
substance reasonably acceptable to Landlord, Landlord shall have, in addition to
all other remedies provided herein and by law, the right but not the obligation,
to cause the same to be released by such means as it shall deem proper,
including payment of or defense against the Claim giving rise to such lien. All
amounts paid or incurred by Landlord in connection therewith shall be paid by
Tenant to Landlord on demand and shall bear interest from the date of demand
until paid at the rate set forth in Section 15.10 below. Nothing in this Lease
shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request
of Landlord, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any contractor,
subcontractor, laborer or materialman for the performance of any labor or the
furnishing of any materials for any specific improvement, alteration or repair
of or to the Building or 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 that would give rise to the filing
of any mechanic's or other liens against the interest of Landlord in the
Property or the Premises.
ARTICLE 10
TAXES ON TENANT'S PROPERTY
Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay, prior to their becoming delinquent,
any and all taxes and assessments levied against, and any increases in Real
Estate Taxes as a result of, any personal property or trade or other fixtures
placed by Tenant in or about the Premises and any improvements (other than
Tenant's Improvements) constructed in the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant.
ARTICLE 11
SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNING
SECTION 11.1 SUBLEASE AND ASSIGNMENT. Tenant shall not assign this Lease, or
allow it to be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise
(it being agreed that for purposes of this Lease, assignment shall include,
without limitation, the transfer of a majority interest of stock, partnership or
other forms of ownership interests, merger or dissolution) or mortgage or pledge
the same, or sublet the Premises or any part thereof or permit the Premises to
be occupied by any firm, person, partnership or corporation or any combination
thereof, other than Tenant, without the prior written consent of Landlord. In no
event shall any assignment or sublease ever release Tenant from any obligation
or liability hereunder.
SECTION 11.2 TENANT'S CONTINUING OBLIGATIONS. Without limiting Landlord's
consent rights and as a condition to obtaining Landlord's consent, (i) each
assignee must assume all obligations under this Lease and (ii) each subtenant
must confirm that its sublease is subject and subordinate to this Lease. In
addition, each assignee and subtenant shall agree to cause the Premises to
comply at all times with all requirements of the Disability Acts
18
28
(as amended), including, but not limited to, obligations arising out of or
associated with such assignee's or subtenant's use of or activities or business
operations conducted within the Premises. No assignee or subtenant of the
Premises or any portion thereof may assign or sublet the Premises or any portion
thereof. Consent by Landlord to one or more assignments or sublettings shall not
operate as a waiver of Landlord's rights as to any subsequent assignments and/or
sublettings. All reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by Landlord in
connection with any assignment or sublease proposed by Tenant will be the
responsibility of Tenant and will be paid by Tenant upon receipt of an invoice
from Landlord.
SECTION 11.3 LANDLORD'S RIGHTS RELATING TO ASSIGNEE OR SUBTENANT. To the extent
the rentals or income derived from any sublease or assignment exceed the rentals
due hereunder, all such excess rentals (after first deducting all reasonable
costs associated with such sublease or assignment) shall be the property of and
paid over to Landlord in consideration for Landlord's consent to the applicable
assignment or sublease. Landlord may at its option collect directly from such
assignee or subtenant all rents becoming due to Tenant under such assignment or
sublease. Tenant here by authorizes and directs any such assignee or subtenant
to make such payments of rent directly to Landlord upon receipt of notice from
Landlord, and Tenant agrees that any such payments made by an assignee or
subtenant to Landlord shall, to the extent of the payments so made, be a full
and complete release and discharge of rent owed to Tenant by such assignee or
subtenant. No direct collection by Landlord from any such assignee or subtenant
shall be construed to constitute a novation or a release of Tenant or any
guarantor of Tenant from the further performance of its obligations hereunder.
Receipt by Landlord of any rent from any assignee, subtenant or occupant of the
Premises or any part thereof shall not be deemed a waiver of the above covenant
in this Lease against assignment and subletting or a release of Tenant under
this Lease. In the event that, following an assignment or subletting, this Lease
or the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder are terminated for any reason,
including without limitation in connection with default by or bankruptcy of
Tenant (which, for the purposes of this Section 11.3, shall include all persons
or entities claiming by or through Tenant), Landlord may, at its sole option,
consider this Lease to be thereafter a direct lease to the assignee or subtenant
of Tenant upon the terms and conditions contained in this Lease.
SECTION 11.4 ERISA AND UBTI RESTRICTIONS. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, including, without limitation Sections 11.1 and 11.2
above, no assignment or subletting shall be permitted if (i) the proposed
assignee or subtenant or any person which, directly or indirectly, controls, is
controlled by, or is under common control with, the proposed assignee or
subtenant directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common
control with Landlord or any person who controls Landlord; and (ii) the proposed
assignment or sublease (1) provides for a rental or other payment for the
leasing, use, occupancy or utilization of all or any portion of the Premises
based, in whole or in part, on the income or profits derived by any person from
the property so leased, used, occupied or utilized other than an amount based on
a fixed percentage or percentages of gross receipts or sales or (2) does not
provide that such assignee or subtenant shall not enter into any lease,
sublease, license, concession or other agreement for the use, occupancy or
utilization of all or any portion of the Premises which provides for a rental or
other payment for such use, occupancy or utilization based, in whole or in part,
on the income or profits derived by any person from the property so leased,
used, occupied or utilized other than an amount based on a fixed percentage or
percentages of gross receipts or sales; or (iii) in the reasonable opinion of
Landlord's counsel, such proposed assignment or subletting will (1) cause a
violation of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 by such
proposed assignee or subtenant, by Landlord, or by any person which, directly or
indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with,
Landlord or any person who controls Landlord or (2) result in Landlord, or any
person which, directly or indirectly controls Landlord, receiving "unrelated
business taxable income" (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code).
SECTION 11.5 ASSIGNMENT BY OPERATION OF LAW. The dissolution of a corporation or
partnership which is Tenant, the transfer of a majority of the assets of Tenant,
the addition and withdrawal of shareholders in a corporation which is Tenant and
the withdrawal from and addition of partners to any partnership which is Tenant
shall constitute an assignment of this Lease which is prohibited without
Landlord's consent. However, notwithstanding the foregoing and for purposes of
this Lease, the following shall not be considered assignments prohibited
hereunder or otherwise require Landlord's consent: (1) the dissolution of Tenant
(if Tenant is a partnership) and immediate reconstitution into a partnership or
the addition or withdrawal of partners, or the reallocation of interests among
partners of Tenant; (2) the dissolution of Tenant (if Tenant is a corporation)
and the
19
29
immediate reconstitution of Tenant into a new corporation, or the addition of
stockholders and the withdrawal of stockholders in the normal course of Tenant's
business, (3) the assignment of this Lease to any successor of Tenant (A) into
which or with which Tenant is merged or consolidated, (B) arising from the
transfer of Tenant's interest under this Lease made in conjunction with the
transfer of a majority of the assets and liabilities of Tenant, or (C) arising
from the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of another corporation by
Tenant so long as in each of the circumstances described in (1) through (3)
above the surviving partnership, corporation or assignee shall assume all
obligations of Tenant hereunder and include a majority of the partners that were
partners (in the case of a partnership) or include the same controlling
shareholders (in the case of a corporation) of Tenant during the twelve (12)
month period immediately prior to the time of the applicable event and the
surviving partnership, corporation or assignee can demonstrate to Landlord's
reasonable satisfaction the same or better financial strength as possessed by
Tenant on the date hereof. Further, Landlord agrees to not unreasonably withhold
or delay its consent to any proposed sublease or assignment to an Affiliate of
Tenant.
ARTICLE 12
TRANSFERS BY LANDLORD, SUBORDINATION AND
TENANT'S ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE
SECTION 12.1 SALE OF THE PROPERTY. In the event of a sale, transfer or
conveyance by Landlord of the Property (which sale, transfer or conveyance by
Landlord may be consummated freely without consent or approval of Tenant), the
same shall operate to release Landlord from any and all liability under this
Lease arising after the date of such sale, provided that if a Security Deposit
has been made by Tenant, Landlord shall not be released from liability with
respect thereto unless Landlord transfers the Security Deposit to the purchaser.
SECTION 12.2 SUBORDINATION, ATTORNMENT AND NOTICE. This Lease is subject and
subordinate to (i) any lease wherein Landlord is the tenant and to the liens of
any and all mortgages and deeds of trust, regardless of whether such lease,
mortgage or deed of trust now exists or may hereafter be created with regard to
all or any part of the Property, (ii) any and all advances (including interest
thereon) to be made under any such lease, mortgage or deed of trust and (iii)
all modifications, consolidations, renewals, replacements and extensions of any
such lease, mortgage or deed of trust. Tenant also agrees that any lessor,
mortgagee or trustee may elect (which election shall be revocable) to have this
Lease superior to any lease or lien of its mortgage or deed of trust and, in the
event of such election and upon notification by such lessor, mortgagee or
trustee to Tenant to that effect, this Lease shall be deemed superior to the
said lease, mortgage or deed of trust, whether this Lease is dated prior to or
subsequent to the date of said lease, mortgage or deed of trust. Tenant shall,
in the event of the sale or assignment of Landlord's interest in the Premises
(except in a sale-leaseback financing transaction), or in the event of the
termination of any lease in a sale-leaseback financing transaction wherein
Landlord is the lessee, attorn to and recognize such purchaser, assignee or
mortgagee as Landlord under this Lease. Tenant shall, in the event of any
proceedings brought for the foreclosure of, or in the event of the exercise of
the power of sale under, any mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises,
attorn to and recognize purchaser at such sale, assignee or mortgagee, as the
case may be, as Landlord under this Lease. The above subordination and
attornment clauses shall be self-operative and no further instruments of
subordination or attornment need be required by any mortgagee, trustee, lessor,
purchaser or assignee. In confirmation thereof, Tenant agrees that, upon the
request of Landlord, or any such lessor, mortgagee, trustee, purchaser or
assignee, Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever instruments may be required
for such purposes and to carry out the intent of this Section 12.2. If an
Affiliate of Landlord shall be the mortgagee, then it shall be an express
condition precedent to the effectiveness of the agreement to subordinate set
forth in this Section 12.2 that Landlord obtain from Landlord's mortgagee an
agreement, on mortgagee's standard form, that, notwithstanding any foreclosure
by Landlord's mortgagee's, or deed, or other conveyance in lieu of foreclosure
with respect thereto, Tenant's leasehold estate created hereunder and Tenant's
other options and rights arising out of this Lease should not be disturbed or
affected so long as no default by Tenant exists under the terms of this Lease
(after notice and opportunity to cure as provided herein).

hereunder, Landlord may, without judicial process, terminate this
Lease by giving written notice thereof to Tenant (whereupon all
obligations and liabilities of Landlord hereunder shall terminate)
and, without further notice and without liability, repossess the
Premises. Landlord shall be entitled to recover all loss and damage
Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination, whether through
inability to relet the Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise,
including without limitation, the following (without duplication of
any element of damages):
(1) accrued Rent to the date of termination and Late
Charges, plus interest thereon at the rate established
under Section 15.10 below from the date due through the
date paid or date of any judgment or award by any court
of competent jurisdiction, the unamortized cost of
Tenant's Improvements, brokers' fees and commissions,
attorneys' fees, moving allowances and any other costs
incurred by Landlord in connection with making or
executing this Lease, the cost of recovering the
Premises and the costs of reletting the Premises
(including, without limitation, advertising costs,
brokerage fees, leasing commissions, reasonable
attorneys' fees and refurbishing costs and other costs
in readying the Premises for a new tenant);
(2) the present value of the Rent (discounted at a rate of
interest equal to six percent [6%] per annum [the
"Discount Rate"]) that would have accrued under this
Lease for the balance of the Lease term but for such
termination, reduced by the reasonable fair market
rental value of the Premises for such balance of the
Lease term (determined from the present value of the
actual base rents, discounted at the Discount Rate,
received and to be received from Landlord's reletting of
the Premises or, if the Premises are not relet, the base
rents, discounted at the Discount Rate, that would be
received from a comparable lease and comparable tenant
for a comparable term and taking into account among
other things, the condition of the Premises, market
conditions and the period of time the Premises may
reasonably remain vacant before Landlord is able to
re-lease the same to a suitable replacement tenant, it
being agreed that Landlord shall have no obligation to
relet or attempt to relet the Premises);
(3) plus any other costs or amounts necessary to compensate
Landlord for its damages.
13.202 Repossession and Re-Entry. Upon the occurrence of a default by
Tenant hereunder, Landlord may, without judicial process,
immediately terminate Tenant's right of possession of the Premises
(whereupon all obligations and liability of Landlord hereunder shall
terminate), but not terminate this Lease, and, without notice,
demand or liability, enter upon the Premises or any part thereof,
take absolute possession of the same, expel or remove Tenant and any
other person or entity who may be occupying the Premises and change
the locks. If Landlord terminates Tenant's possession of the
Premises under this subsection 13.202, (i) Landlord shall have no
obligation whatsoever to tender to Tenant a key for new locks
installed in the Premises, (ii) Tenant shall have no further right
to possession of the Premises and (iii) Landlord shall have no
obligation whatsoever to relet or attempt to relet the Premises.
Landlord may, however, at its sole option relet the Premises or
22
32
any part thereof for such terms and such rents as Landlord may in
its sole discretion elect. If Landlord elects to relet the Premises,
rent received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied
first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due
hereunder from Tenant to Landlord (in such order as Landlord shall
designate), second, to the payment of any costs of such reletting,
including, without limitation, refurbishing costs, reasonable
attorneys' fees, advertising costs, brokerage fees and leasing
commissions and third, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid
hereunder (in such order as Landlord shall designate), and Tenant
shall satisfy and pay to Landlord any deficiency upon demand
therefor from time to time. Landlord shall not be responsible or
liable for any failure to relet the Premises or any part thereof or
for any failure to collect any rent due upon any such reletting. No
such re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord
shall be construed as an election on Landlord's part to terminate
this Lease unless a written notice of such termination is given to
Tenant pursuant to subsection 13.201 above. If Landlord relets the
Premises, either before or after the termination of this Lease, all
such rentals received from such lease shall be and remain the
exclusive property of Landlord, and Tenant shall not be, at any
time, entitled to recover any such rental. Landlord may at any time
after a reletting elect to terminate this Lease.
13.203 Cure of Default. Upon the occurrence of a default hereunder by
Tenant, Landlord may, without judicial process and without having
any liability therefor, enter upon the Premises and do whatever
Tenant is obligated to do under the terms of this Lease and Tenant
agrees to reimburse Landlord on demand for any expenses which
Landlord may incur in effecting compliance with Tenant's obligations
under this Lease, and Tenant further agrees that Landlord shall not
be liable for any damages resulting to Tenant from such action,
whether caused by the negligence of Landlord, its agents, employees,
contractors or otherwise.
13.204 Continuing Obligations. No repossession of or re-entering upon the
Premises or any part thereof pursuant to subsection 13.202 or 13.203
above or otherwise and no reletting of the Premises or any part
thereof pursuant to subsection 13.202 above shall relieve Tenant or
any Guarantor of its liabilities and obligations hereunder, all of
which shall survive such repossession or re-entering. In the event
of any such repossession of or re-entering upon the Premises or any
part thereof by reason of the occurrence of a default, Tenant will
continue to pay to Landlord Rent required to be paid by Tenant.
13.205 Cumulative Remedies. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other right
or remedy set forth herein or otherwise available to Landlord at law
or in equity and each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative
and in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or now
or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. In addition
to the other remedies provided in this Lease and without limiting
the preceding sentence, Landlord shall be entitled, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, to injunctive relief in case of the
violation, or attempted or threatened violation, of any of the
covenants, agreements, conditions or provisions of this Lease, or to
a decree compelling performance of any of the covenants, agreements,
conditions or provisions of this Lease, or to any other remedy
allowed to Landlord at law or in equity.
SECTION 13.3. DEFAULTS BY LANDLORD, Landlord shall be in default under this
Lease if and only if Landlord fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder
and said failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after Tenant
delivers written notice thereof to Landlord and each mortgagee who has a lien
against any portion of the Property and whose name and address has been provided
to Tenant, provided that if such failure cannot reasonably be cured within said
thirty (30) day period, Landlord shall not be in default hereunder if the
curative action is commenced within said thirty (30) day period and is
thereafter diligently pursued until cured. In no event shall (i) Tenant claim a
constructive or actual eviction or that the Premises have become unsuitable
hereunder or (ii) a constructive or actual eviction or breach of any implied
warranty be deemed to have occurred under this Lease, prior to the expiration of
the notice and cure periods provided under this Section 13.3. Any notice of a
failure to perform by Landlord shall be sent to Landlord at the addresses and to
the attention of the parties set forth
23
33
in the Basic Lease Provisions. Any notice of a failure to perform by Landlord
not sent to Landlord at all addresses and/or to the attention of all parties
required under this Section and to each mortgagee who is entitled to notice or
not sent in compliance with Article 14 below shall be of no force or effect.
SECTION 13.4 LANDLORD'S LIABILITY.
13.401 Tenant's Rights in Respect of Landlord Default. Tenant is granted no
contractual right of termination by this Lease, except to the extent
and only to the extent set forth in Sections 5.202, 7.1 and 8.2
above and Section 13.7 below. If Tenant shall recover a money
judgment against Landlord, such judgment shall be satisfied only out
of the right, title and interest of Landlord in the Property (as the
same may then be encumbered) and, subject to the rights of
mortgagees, any insurance carried in the name of Landlord and
Landlord shall not be liable for any deficiency. If Landlord is
found to be in default hereunder by reason of its failure to give a
consent that it is required to give hereunder, Tenant's sole remedy
will be an action for specific performance or injunction. The
foregoing sentence shall in no event be construed as mandatorily
requiring Landlord to give consents under this Lease. In no event
shall either Landlord or Tenant be liable to the other for
consequential or special damages by reason of a failure to perform
(or a default) by the respective party hereunder. In no event shall
Tenant have the right to levy execution against any property of
Landlord other than its interest in the Property as hereinbefore
expressly provided.
13.402 Certain Limitations on Landlord's Liability. Unless caused by
Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct and without
limiting the provisions of Section 7.4, Landlord shall not be liable
to Tenant for any claims, actions, demands, costs, expenses, damage
or liability of any kind (i) arising out of the use, occupancy or
enjoyment of the Premises by Tenant or any person therein or holding
under Tenant or by or through the acts or omissions of any of their
respective employees, officers, agents, invitees or contractors,
(ii) caused by or arising out of fire, explosion, falling sheetrock,
gas, electricity, water, rain, snow or dampness, or leaks in any
part of the Premises, (iii) caused by or arising out of damage to
the roof, pipes, appliances or plumbing works or any damage to or
malfunction of heating, ventilation or air conditioning equipment or
(iv) caused by Tenants or any persons either in the Premises or
elsewhere in the Building (other than Common Areas) or by occupants
of property adjacent to the Building or Common Areas or by the
public or by the construction of any private, public or quasi-public
work. In no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss of
or damage to property of Tenant or of others located in the Premises
or the Building by reason of theft or burglary.

to such new space in the Building ("Substituted Premises").
Effective on the date of such relocation, this lease shall be
amended via an amendment to same, to be executed by both
Landlord and Tenant, by deleting the description of the
original Premises and substituting therefor the description of
the Substituted Premises, it being understood and agreed that
all other terms and conditions of this Lease shall remain the
same. In no event shall the term for the Substituted Premises
commence prior to the date when the leasehold improvements in
the Substituted Premises are substantially completed by
Landlord and/or its contractors, at Landlord's sole cost and
expense, on Tenant's behalf. Anything in the foregoing
provisions of this Section 15.19 (a) to the contrary
notwithstanding, Landlord shall not have the right to relocate
the Premises if less than twelve (12) months remain in the
Term (except if Tenant shall have exercised its Renewal Option
pursuant to Rider 1) or in the Renewal Term, as the case may
be.
(b) Landlord shall pay for or otherwise reimburse Tenant for all
reasonable out-of-pocket expense incurred by Tenant pursuant
to the relocation to the Substituted Premises, including, but
not limited to, the following: (i) all reasonable costs and
expenses, including filing fees and building permits, of
reconstructing leasehold improvements in the Substituted
Premises to substantially the same condition and level of
improvements as existed in the Premises prior to such
relocation (i.e. to replicate the Premises); (ii) reasonable
moving costs insofar as furniture, fixtures and equipment,
filing cabinets and the contents thereof, supplies, telephone
and equipment (including disconnect and connect charges),
computer equipment, and all other property (including personal
property) of Tenant and its employees located in the Premises
(using a commercial mover reasonably approved by Tenant or if
Tenant elects to do the moving itself, Landlord will reimburse
Tenant for the reasonable costs it would have incurred had a
commercial mover acceptable to Landlord been hired on a
competitive basis; (iii) fiber network, and other
communications- and computer-related cabling and connections
setup charges; (iv) space planning/interior architecture and
engineering fees; (v) reasonable reprinting of stationary,
brochures and all other printed materials used by Tenant in
its business (on which the address of the Premises appears) of
the same quality and quantity as on hand immediately
29
39
prior to Landlord's notice to Tenant of its exercising of this
relocation right; and (vi) reasonable costs of

first offer rights in generally similar locations and
condition (including contiguity), relative to the existing
location of the Premises and the expansion and first offer
space, on the same terms and conditions as available to Tenant
pursuant to Riders 2 and 3; and Tenant's Renewal Option, as
set forth in Rider 1, shall remain in full force and effect.

its business.

dated as of __________________, 1995 executed by and between LASALLE PARTNERS
MANAGEMENT LIMITED (in its capacity as agent for Xxxxxx Street Limited
Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership) ("Landlord"), and WOLF
COMMUNICATIONS COMPANY, a Texas corporation ("Tenant"). Any capitalized term not
defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to it in the Lease. Landlord and
Tenant agree as follows:
1. Plans.
1.1 Construction Plans. Tenant's architect shall prepare and deliver to
Landlord, within fourteen (14) calendar days after execution of the Lease,
construction plans (such construction plans, when approved, and all changes and
amendments thereto agreed to by Landlord and Tenant in writing, are herein
called the `Construction Plans") for all of Tenant's improvements in the
Premises, (all improvements required by the Construction Plans are herein called
"Tenant's Improvements"), including complete detail and finish drawings for
partitions, doors, reflected ceiling, telephone outlets, electrical switches and
outlets and building standard heating, ventilation and air conditioning
equipment and controls. Within five (5) business days after Construction Plans
are delivered to Landlord, Landlord shall approve (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld) or disapprove same in writing and if disapproved,
Landlord shall provide Tenant, Tenant's architect and Tenant's engineer specific
reasons for disapproval. Tenant shall promptly revise and redeliver the
Construction Plans for Landlord's review. The foregoing process shall continue
until the Construction Plans are approved by Landlord.
1.2 Changes to Approved Plans. If any re-drawing or re-drafting of the
Construction Plans is necessitated by Tenant's requested changes (all of which
shall be subject to Landlord's approval), the expense of any such re-drawing or
re-drafting required in connection therewith, Landlord's review of such
re-drawing or re-drafting, and the expense of any work and improvements
necessitated by such re-drawing or re-drafting will be charged to Tenant.
1.3 Coordination of Planners and Designers. It shall be Tenant's responsibility
to cause necessary coordination of its agents' efforts with Landlord's agents to
ensure that no delays are caused to either the planning or construction of the
Tenant's Improvements. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord the cost incurred for

Review Fee"). The Construction Plans Review Fee shall not exceed $3,840.00.
1.4 Compliance With Disability Acts. Tenant shall cause the construction of
Tenant's Improvements to be completed such that Tenant, the Premises and
Tenant's Improvements (as constructed) will be in compliance with the Disability
Acts. Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against, and
reimburse Landlord for and with respect to, any and all claims, liabilities and
expenses (including, without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses)
incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of or in connection with any
violation of the Disability Acts by Tenant and/or Tenant's Improvements or the
Premises not being in compliance with the Disability Acts. The foregoing
indemnity shall not include any claims or expenses arising out of the negligence
or gross negligence of Landlord or Landlord's employees, agents or contractors.
2. Construction and Costs of Tenant's Improvements.
2.1 Construction Obligation and Finish Allowance. Landlord shall provide Tenant

Landlord, from time to time upon Landlord's receipt of satisfactory evidence of
appropriate expenditures for payment of the contract sum required to be paid to
the general contractor engaged to construct
C-i
44
Tenant's Improvements (the "Contract Sum"). Any unused Finish Allowance may be
applied to future Tenant Improvements or refurbishments in the initial Premises
or additional space leased by Tenant during the Term. Tenant acknowledges that
demolition of existing improvements, addition or movement of lights,
refurbishment of the ceiling system, balancing of HVAC, movement and alteration
of the sprinkler system, and some secondary duct installation will be deducted
from the Finish Allowance. Landlord agrees to provide Tenant, in addition to the

of the Premises on the 7th Floor to replace panels/tiles in the Premises and may
utilize all existing improvements in the Premises.
2.2 Excess Costs. If the sum of the Permitted Costs exceeds the Finish
Allowance, then Tenant shall pay all such excess costs.
3. Tenant's Contractor.
(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Exhibit C to the contrary, Tenant
shall contract with Xxxx Computer Environments, Inc. (the "Tenant's
Contractor") to construct Tenant's Improvements. Tenant's Contractor
shall (and its contract shall so provide that it shall):
(i) be capable of working in harmony with the Landlord's space
planners, architects, engineers, contractors, workmen,
mechanics, or other agents or independent contractors in the
performance of their work ("Landlord's Agents") and shall
comply with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be
promulgated by Landlord;
(ii) maintain such payment and performance bonds and insurance in
force and effect as may be reasonably requested by Landlord or
as required by applicable law; and
(iii) use reasonable efforts to reach an understanding with
Landlord's Agents as to the conduct of their work, including
but not limited to those matters relating to hoisting,
Building systems, systems interfacing, clean-up, use of
temporary utilities, protection of installed materials or-
equipment, sanitary facilities, temporary heating, lighting
and cooling and access to the Premises (it being understood
that the Tenant's Contractor shall arrange with and pay to
Landlord's Agents an amount, if any, negotiated by such
parties in good faith, with respect to such functions and
services).
(b) Landlord's sole obligation with respect to construction of the
Tenant's Improvements shall be to deliver the Premises in its as-is
condition and contribute the Finish Allowance in accordance with
Section 2 of this Exhibit C.
(c) Tenant's Contractor shall use only subcontractors pre-approved by
Landlord for all mechanical, electrical, plumbing or fire protection
work within the Building. Landlord and Tenant agree that Xxxx
Electric shall be the electrical subcontractor.
(d) The Construction Plans Review Fee shall be payable to Landlord in
consideration of Landlord's engineers (CHP & Associates) review of
Tenant's Construction Plans drawn by Tenant's engineers, and may be
offset against the Finish Allowance as invoices are received by
Landlord from CHP & Associates.
Prior to the Commencement Date, Tenant, Tenant's Contractor and other authorized
representatives of Tenant shall have the right to enter upon the Premises for
the purposes of preparing the Premises for construction and for construction of
Tenant's Improvements. Landlord shall not be liable for any injury, loss or
damage to any of Tenant's installations or decorations made prior to the
Commencement Date and not installed by Landlord. Tenant shall indemnify and hold
harmless Landlord and Landlord's Agents from and against and reimburse Landlord
for and with respect to, any and all costs, expenses, claims, liabilities and
causes of action arising out of or in
C-ii
45
connection with work performed in the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant.
Landlord is not responsible for the function and maintenance of Tenant's
Improvements which are different than Landlord's standard improvements at the
Property or improvements, equipment, cabinets or fixtures not installed by
Landlord. Such entry by Tenant and the Tenant's Contractor pursuant to this
Section 3 shall be deemed to be under all of the terms, covenants, provisions
and conditions of the Lease except the covenant to pay Rent.
4. Delays. Delays in the completion of Construction Plans or completion of
construction of Tenant's Improvements or in obtaining a certificate of
occupancy, if required by the applicable governmental authority, caused by
Tenant, Tenant's Contractor (hereinafter defined) or any person, firm or
corporation employed by Tenant or Tenant's Contractor shall constitute "Tenant
Delay". If the completion of Tenant's Improvements are affected by any Tenant
Delay, then the date Substantial Completion shall be deemed to have occurred
shall be the date the Premises are Substantially Complete, but moved up by one
day for each day of Tenant Delay (by way of example, if the Premises would have
been Substantially Complete on December 1 but for three (3) days of Tenant
Delay, the date of Substantial Completion shall be deemed to have occurred on
November 28). If the completion of Tenant's Improvements are affected by any
delay other than Tenant Delay, then the date Substantial Completion shall be
deemed to have occurred shall be the date the Premises are Substantially
Complete, but moved back (i.e., extended) by one day for each day of such delay
(by way of example, if the Premises would have been Substantially Complete on
December 1 but for three days of delay that are not Tenant Delays, the date of
Substantial Completion shall be deemed to have occurred on December 4).
5. Substantial Completion and Punch List. The terms "Substantial Completion" and
"Substantially Complete," as applicable, shall mean when Tenant's Improvements
are sufficiently completed in accordance with the Construction Plans so that
Tenant can reasonably use the Premises for the Permitted Use (as described in
Item 11 of the Basic Lease Provisions). When Landlord considers Tenant's
Improvements to be Substantially Complete, Landlord will notify Tenant and
within two (2) business days thereafter, Landlord's representative and Tenant's
representative shall conduct a walk-through of the Premises and identify any
necessary touch-up work, repairs and minor completion items as are necessary for
final completion of Tenant's Improvements. Neither Landlord's representative nor
Tenant's representative shall unreasonably withhold his agreement on punch list
items. The Commencement Date set forth in No. 7 of the Basic Lease Provisions is
calculated based on Tenant substantially completing all of Tenant's Improvements
within ten (10) weeks after Landlord's approval of Construction Plans. The
Commencement Date shall be adjusted commensurately with adjustments in
Substantial Completion as set forth in Paragraph 4 above and shall occur on the
date of Substantial Completion whether or not occurring before or after the date
set forth in the Basic Lease Provisions.
6. Temporary Supply of Power. Prior to the Commencement Date and during
construction of Tenant's Improvements, Landlord shall supply temporary power,
HVAC, freight elevator and security during construction, at no additional charge
to Tenant so long as and to the extent that Tenant's usage is reasonable.
7. Special Improvements. Tenant shall have the right to include the following
improvements within Tenant's Improvements, provided the construction and
installation of same are performed by contractors acceptable to Landlord:
(a) modification of existing sprinkler system in Premises in a manner
acceptable to Landlord; and
(b) tie in by Tenant into the Building's security system in a manner
acceptable to Landlord.
8. Landlord's Work. Landlord's sole obligation shall be to construct, at
Landlord's expense, the Landlord's Work, as follows:
(i) All Labor, materials, equipment, services and other items
necessary to complete the multi-tenant corridor(s) and core
finishes, including the elevator lobby on Level 7, in a manner
consistent with the other low rise multi-tenant floors in the
Building.

alarm system to accommodate the signals from the tenant system
requiring integration with the Building's system.
(iii) Terminations made at the electrical closet, transformers,
risers, conduits, feeders and switchboards necessary to
furnish the Premises with electrical power as outlined in
Paragraph 5.103 of this Lease.

coordination of construction and approval of change orders will be as follows,
provided that either party may change its representative upon written notice to
the other:

RIDER I
RENEWAL OPTION
SINGLE RENEWAL TERM
This Rider is attached to and a part of that certain Lease Agreement dated
as of _____________________, 1995, executed by and between LASALLE PARTNERS
MANAGEMENT LIMITED (in its capacity as agent for Xxxxxx Street Limited
Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership) ("Landlord"), and WOLF
COMMUNICATIONS COMPANY, a Texas corporation ("Tenant"). Any capitalized term not
defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to it in the Lease. Landlord and
Tenant agree as follows:
1. If, and only if, on the Expiration Date and the date Tenant notifies
Landlord of its renewal of the term of this Lease (as provided below), (i)
Tenant is not in default under this Lease, (ii) Tenant then occupies, and
the Premises then consist of, at least all the original Premises and (iii)
this Lease is in full force and effect, then Tenant (or any approved
Assignee, but not any subtenant of Tenant) shall have and may exercise an
option to renew this Lease for a contiguous portion of the Premises equal
to or exceeding 12,312 square feet (the "Renewal Space") for one (1)
additional term of five (5) years (the "Renewal Term") upon the sane terms
and conditions contained in this Lease with the exceptions that (x) this
Lease shall not be further available for renewal and (y) the rental for
the Renewal Term shall be the "Market Rental Rate", but in no event will
the Base Annual Rent for the Renewal Term be less than the Base Annual
Rent for the last twelve (12) calendar months of the initial term of the
Lease. If Tenant renews for less than all of the Premises, then the
configuration of the Renewal Space and the portion of the Premises not
renewed must be reasonably acceptable to Landlord.
2. The Market Rental Rate is hereby defined to mean the then prevailing fair
market rental rate in the Building determined on a "gross" lease basis as
of the exercise of the respective provision by Tenant, which a willing
tenant would pay and a willing landlord would accept for space of
comparable size and condition, taking into consideration all relevant
factors, including the following:
(1) use, location, size and/or floor level(s) of the space in question,
including view, elevator lobby exposure, etc.;
(2) tenant improvement or refurbishment allowance to be provided;
(3) abatement (including with respect to base rental, operating expenses
and real estate taxes, and parking charges);

(7) space planning/interior architecture/engineering allowance(s);
(8) refurbishment and repainting allowances;

cooling and heating, plus hourly charges therefor);
Rider 1-i
60
(12) distinction between "gross" and "net" lease
(13) base year or dollar amount for escalation purposes (both operating
expenses and real estate taxes);
(14) any other adjustments (including by way of indexes) to base rental;
(15) credit standing and financial stature of the tenant;
(16) term of length of lease;
(17) the time the particular rental rate under consideration is to become
effective.
Landlord will take into consideration the tenant inducements offered in
the transactions considered by Landlord in determining the Market Rental
Rate.
3. If Tenant desires to renew this Lease, Tenant must notify Landlord in
writing of its intention to renew on or before the date which is at least
nine (9) months but no more than twelve (12) months prior to the
Expiration Date. If Tenant timely notifies Landlord of Tenant's exercise
of its right to renew, this Lease shall be extended as provided herein and
Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an amendment to this Lease to reflect
the extension of the term and changes in Rent in accordance with this
Rider. If Tenant fails to timely notify Landlord in writing of Tenant's
exercise of its right to renew, this Lease shall end on the Expiration
Date and Landlord shall have no further obligations or liability
hereunder.
4. The Renewal Space shall be delivered to Tenant in an "as is", broom-clean
condition. Landlord will, however, provide Tenant with a refurbishment
allowance in an amount not to exceed $5.00 per square foot of Rentable
Area within the Renewal Space. Such finish allowance shall be used to

approval of Construction Plans, as provided in the Expansion Space work
letter) and (ii) the date that Tenant commences use of the applicable
Expansion Space. Upon such rent commencement date. (w) the Agreed Rentable
Area of the Premises shall be deemed increased by the agreed rentable area

increased to an amount equal to one twelfth (1/12th) of the Basic Annual
Rent for the Premises (as increased) and (z) Additional Rent for the
Premises shall be recalculated on the basis of the increased Agreed
Rentable Area of the Premises.
D. At such time as Basic Annual Rent commences with respect to any Expansion
Space, Landlord and Tenant will enter into an amendment to this Lease
accurately reflecting the addition of the Expansion Space to the Premises,
(ii) the increase in the Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent payable
under this Lease, (iii) the increase in Tenant's Pro Rata Share Percentage
and (iv) such other amendments as are necessary.
Rider 2-i

E. Landlord and Tenant shall promptly execute an Acceptance of Premises
Memorandum in substantially the form of Exhibit D attached to the Lease.
If Tenant occupies the Expansion Space without executing the Acceptance of
Premises Memorandum, Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Expansion
Space for all purposes.
F. Notwithstanding any provision or inference in this Rider to the contrary,
the Expansion Option shall expire and be of no further force or effect on
the earlier of (i) the expiration or earlier termination of the initial
term of this Lease, (ii) a default by Tenant under this Lease beyond any
applicable grace period or (iii) the eighteen month anniversary of the

A. Prior to leasing to a third party any of the area described on Schedule A
attached to this Rider (the "Opportunity Expansion Space"), Landlord shall
deliver to Tenant a written statement ("Statement") setting forth that the
entire Opportunity Expansion Space, or named portion thereof, is or will
be available for direct lease and, in the case of space for which Landlord
has received an offer to lease from a bona ride prospective tenant (a
"Third Party Offer"), the name of such tenant. A prospective tenant shall
be considered bona fide when such prospective tenant has delivered to
Landlord a counter-proposal to lease the space, at which time Landlord
shall provide Tenant with the amount of space and the term (including
renewal terms) contained within the offer. Tenant shall have ten (10)
business days after receipt of the Statement in the case of a Third Parry
Offer, or twenty (20) business days otherwise, within which to notify
Landlord in writing that it desires to lease the entire applicable
Opportunity Expansion Space set forth in the Statement (each such written
notice is herein referred to as a "Notice"). Failure by Tenant to notify
Landlord within such applicable period shall be deemed an election by
Tenant not to lease the applicable Opportunity Expansion Space and
Landlord shall have the right to lease such space. If Landlord does not
lease such Opportunity Expansion Space within the later of (x) one hundred
twenty (120) days after Landlord's receipt of Tenant's Notice or (y)
termination of continuous good faith negotiations with the prospective
tenant, then Landlord will again comply with the provisions of this Rider
prior to leasing such space to any other third party. Tenant may at any
time during the Term express interest in any space which is available in
the Opportunity Expansion Space, and Landlord shall provide a Statement to
Tenant covering such space. If and when Tenant leases all Opportunity
Expansion Space (including any Expansion Space which may then be subject
to this Rider 3), Tenant's rights hereunder shall be extended to all space
on the 7th floor of the Building which is or may become available for
lease, subject to (a) prior rights of other tenants in the Building and
(b) renewals by tenants actually occupying space on the 7th floor whether
or not such renewals are set forth in their leases.
B. If Tenant exercises a right to take any Opportunity Expansion Space prior
to the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Commencement Date, then such
Opportunity Expansion Space shall be provided upon the same terms as the
initial Premises, including Landlord's obligation to furnish the same
finish allowance and concessions as provided for the initial Premises,
reduced, however, as necessary to permit Landlord to fully amortize on a
straight line basis using a 10% interest factor the finish allowance and
concessions over the balance of the Term (not including any renewal term).
Thereafter, the Opportunity Expansion Space shall be leased to Tenant upon
all terms and conditions of this Lease with the following exceptions: (i)
all Opportunity Expansion Space shall be delivered to Tenant in "as is"
condition, except for latent defects reported to Landlord within one
hundred eighty (180) days after delivery; (ii) Basic Annual Rent for the
Opportunity Expansion Space will be the Market Rental Rate determined as
set forth in Rider 1; (iii) the Basic Monthly Rent for the agreed rentable
area of the Opportunity Expansion Space will be equal to one-twelfth
(1/12th) of the Basic Annual Rent for the Opportunity Expansion Space;
(iv) the Opportunity Expansion Space will be improved in accordance with
paragraph D of this Rider; (v) Tenant shall not be entitled to any
allowances or inducements with respect to the applicable Opportunity
Expansion Space; and (vi) Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent with
respect to the applicable Opportunity Expansion Space shall commence on

applicable Opportunity Expansion Space for any purpose or (y) the earlier
of Substantial Completion or ten (10) weeks from the date Landlord
delivers the Opportunity Expansion Space to Tenant for construction of
leasehold improvements (subject to extension for Force Majeure and
Landlord not unreasonably delaying its consent
Rider 3-i
65

work letter). Upon such rent commencement date, (1) the Agreed Rentable
Area of the Premises shall be deemed increased by the agreed rentable area
of the Opportunity Expansion Space, (2) Basic Annual Rent for the Premises
shall be deemed increased by an amount equal to the Basic Annual Rent for
the Opportunity Expansion Space, (3) Basic Monthly Rent for the Premises
shall be deemed increased to an amount equal to one twelfth (1/12th) of
the Basic Annual Rent for the increased Premises and (4) Additional Rent
for the Premises shall be recalculated on the basis of the increased
Agreed Rentable Area of the Premises.
C. The failure of Tenant to exercise its rights to take Opportunity Expansion
Space in any given instance shall not prejudice its right to exercise its
rights to lease with respect to any other space or the same space after
the appropriate period, should all or any part of such space again become
available for direct lease or should Landlord again have a bona fide,
prospective tenant for such space.
D. Within fifteen (15) days after Landlord's receipt of a Notice, Tenant and
Landlord will enter into a work letter substantially in the form of
Exhibit C attached to the Lease (including a reasonable Construction Plans
Review Fee), provided that such form shall be amended to (i) set forth
appropriate dates, (ii) amend the finish allowance to be an amount
calculated in accordance with the other provision of this Rider 3 and
(iii) provide for such other matters as are necessary to reflect the
agreements of the parties with respect to the finish out of the applicable
Opportunity Expansion Space. Pursuant to the work letter, Tenant shall
construct or cause to be constructed improvements in the applicable
Opportunity Expansion Space in substantial accordance with construction
plans agreed to by Landlord and Tenant.
E. Landlord and Tenant shall promptly upon request of Landlord execute an
Acceptance of Premises Memorandum in substantially the form of Exhibit D

without executing the Acceptance of Premises Memorandum, Tenant shall be
deemed to have accepted such Opportunity Expansion Space for all purposes.

and Tenant will enter into an amendment to this Lease accurately
reflecting (i) the addition of the applicable Opportunity Expansion Space
to the Premises, (ii) the increase in Basic Annual Rent and Additional
Rent payable under this Lease, (iii) the increase in Tenant's Pro Rata
Share Percentage and (iv) such other amendments as are necessary.
G. Notwithstanding any other provision or inference herein to the contrary,
Tenant's rights and Landlord's obligations under this Rider shall expire
and be of no further force or effect on the expiration or earlier
termination of the initial term of this Lease, or during the continuation
of a default by Tenant under this Lease.
