THIS Lease, dated as of the date specified in the Basic Lease Information which is attached hereto
and incorporated herein for all purposes, is made between Landlord and Tenant.
ARTICLE 1 — Premises
Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant leases from Landlord for the Term (as defined below) and
subject to the provisions hereof, to each of which Landlord and Tenant mutually agree, the
Premises, which Premises is more particularly described in the floor plans in Exhibit A hereto,
together with its appurtenances, including the right to use, in common with others, the lobbies,
entrances, stairs, elevators, off-street parking and loading areas (for loading and unloading of
materials and supplies), and other public portions of the Building. The Premises shall constitute
part of the “Rentable Area,” which shall be determined and defined by Landlord using standards
adopted by Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA). For purposes of this Lease, the
Rentable Area of the Building and the Rentable Area of the Premises are as provided in the
foregoing Basic Lease Information. The term “Common Areas” shall mean all of the common facilities
now or hereafter under, over, in or adjacent to the Building designed and intended for use by all
Tenants in the Building in common facilities now or hereafter under, over, in or adjacent to the
Building designed and intended for use by all Tenants in the Building in common with Landlord and
each other.
ARTICLE 2 — Term
Section 2.01. The term of this Lease (the “Term”) shall begin on the Commencement Date.
The Commencement Date shall be the earlier of the date:
(a) | specified in the Basic Lease Information provided Landlord has delivered the Premises with the Building Standard Leasehold Improvements as set forth on Exhibit A and B substantially completed: or |
(b) | of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises for the conduct of Tenant’s business (i.e. not occupancy for construction purposes) (the “Commencement Date”). |
Unless sooner terminated, the Term shall end at midnight on the Expiration Date specified in the
Basic Lease Information.
Section 2.02 Provided Tenant performs all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease,
including Tenant’s covenant for the payment of Rental as defined below, Tenant shall, during the
Term, peaceably and quietly enjoy the Premises without disturbance from Landlord; subject, however,
to the terms of this Lease and any deeds of trust, restrictive covenants, ground leases, easements,
and other encumbrances to which this Lease now or may become subject and subordinate.
4
ARTICLE 3 — Delivery of the Premises to Tenant
Before the Commencement Date, Landlord shall substantially complete the floor(s) or portions
thereof on which the Premises are located and shall construct the Leasehold Improvements, if any,
to be constructed or installed by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of Exhibit A and B hereto.
If for any reason Landlord cannot deliver the Premises to Tenant by the Commencement Date, this
Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable for any loss or damage resulting
therefrom, except that the Rental shall be waived for the period between the Commencement Date and
the date when Landlord can deliver possession and Landlord shall extend the Term. Tenant may not
enter or occupy the Premises until it is tendered by Landlord, unless Tenant’s entry relates to
construction work in the Premises. The Premises shall be deemed completed and possession delivered
when the Premises is completed to accommodate Tenants use. The terms of Exhibit A and B hereto
shall govern the construction and installation of all Leasehold Improvements. The term “Building
Standard Leasehold Improvements” as used herein shall mean those Leasehold Improvements which
conform to Building Standard. The term “Non-Building Standard Leasehold Improvements” as used
herein shall mean all Leasehold Improvements which exceed or deviate from Building Standard. The
terms “Building Standard” and “Non-Building Standard” as used herein shall have the meanings
specified and or indicated in Exhibit B hereto.
ARTICLE 4 — Acceptance of the Premises and Building by Tenant
Taking possession of the Premises by Tenant shall be conclusive evidence that Tenant:
(a) | accepts the Premises as suitable for the purposes for which they are leased |
(b) | accepts the Building and every part and appurtenance thereof as being in a good and satisfactory condition; and |
(c) | waives any defects in the Premises and its appurtenances, except for the completion of those items, if any, on any punch list remaining on Exhibit A and B attached hereto. |
Landlord shall not be liable, except for negligence or willful misconduct, to Tenant or any of its
agents, employees, licensees, or invitees for any injury or damage to person or property due to the
condition or design of or any defect in the Building or its mechanical systems and equipment which
may exist or occur, and Tenant, for itself and its agents, employees, licensees, and invitees,
expressly assumes all risks of injury or damage to person or property, either proximate or remote,
resulting from the condition of the Premises or the Building.
ARTICLE 5 — Rental
Section 5.01 Tenant covenants and agrees to pay to Landlord as Rental for the Premises, in
lawful money of the United States, 1/12 of the Annual Base Rental specified in the Basic Lease
Information, payable monthly in advance, without notice or demand, on the first day of each
calendar month. In the event of any late payments, Tenant agrees to pay a late charge for special
handling equal to 5% of the Rental due Rental shall be paid to Landlord, without deduction or
offset, at the address of Landlord specified in the Basic Lease Information or such other place as
Landlord may designate in writing. The first monthly installment of Rental shall be paid on the
Commencement Date, except that if Commencement Date is a date other than the first day of a
calendar month, then the monthly Rental for the first and last fractional months of the Term shall
be appropriately prorated. The term “Rental” as used herein means the sum of Annual Base Rental,
Parking Rental (as defined in Exhibit C hereof) and all other sums, whether or not expressly
denominated
5
as rent, shall constitute Rental for the purposes of Section 502(b)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code
U.S.C. 502(b)(7). A service charge of 10% of the amount of any checks returned stamped “NSF” will
be due and payable, in addition to the overdue installments to cover Landlord’s extra cost and
expense in handling and processing. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount
than the monthly installment due under this Lease shall be deemed to be other than on account of
the earliest Rental due hereunder, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or payment
as Rental be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment
without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rental or pursue any other
remedy provided in this Lease or by law.
Section 5.02 Upon the first anniversary of the Commencement Date of this Lease, and upon
each and every anniversary date thereafter, the then current Annual Base Rental shall be increased
by the Annual Base Rental Rate Increase (cumulative) as specified in the Basic Lease Information.
ARTICLE 6 — Operating Expenses
Intentionally left blank
ARTICLE 7 — Services by Landlord
While Tenant is occupying the Premises and is not in default under this Lease, Landlord shall, at
its expense, but subject to the provisions of Articles 6 and 8 hereof, furnish the Premises with:
(a) | passenger elevator service (where applicable) in common with other Tenants for access to and from the Premises, reasonably limited after normal business hours and on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays; |
(b) | janitorial cleaning services will be provided 5 nights a week to Tenants as is customary in comparable office buildings in the greater Harrisburg area; and |
(c) | utility services provided for in Article 8 below. |
ARTICLE 8 — Utilities
Section 8.01 While Tenant is occupying the Premises and is not in default under this
Lease, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with the following services:
(a) | potable water |
(b) | heating, ventilating, and/or air conditioning in season on business days from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. |
(c) | electric lighting for public areas and special Services Areas of the Building |
all of which services shall be provided to Tenant by Landlord and paid for by Landlord. If Tenant
requires air conditioning or heating outside the hours and days specified above, Landlord shall
furnish it only at Tenant’s request, and Tenant will bear the entire charge therefore which will be
an amount equal to the rate charged to Landlord, at that time, plus a reasonable fee to cover
Landlord’s overhead costs, with a two-hour minimum. Whenever machines or equipment that generate
abnormal heat are used in the Premises by
6
Tenant which affect the temperature or humidity otherwise maintained by the central air
conditioning system, Landlord will have the right to install supplemental air conditioning units in
the Premises, and the full total cost thereof, will be paid by Tenant to Landlord on demand.
Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of
special lighting relamping and ballasts within the Premises after initial installation of such
items.
Section 8.02 While Tenant is occupying the Premises and is not in default under this
Lease, Landlord will furnish sufficient power for lighting, personal computers, and other normal
office machines of similar low electrical consumption, all of which power shall be paid for by
Landlord . Tenant agrees that Landlord’s aforesaid obligation does not include the provision of
power for:
(a) | special mainframe type computers and/or electronic data processing equipment, |
(b) | special lighting which has electrical consumption in excess of the Building Standard lighting, or |
(c) | any item that consumes more than 0.5 kilowatts at rated capacity or requires a voltage other than 120 volt single phase |
and such consumption by Tenant shall be deemed excessive usage for which Tenant shall pay Landlord
upon receipt of an invoice for the cost to Landlord of such usage. Notwithstanding the
aforementioned, Tenant acknowledges that the Building electrical feeders have normal design
limitations, such that
(i) | in no event shall lighting have a design load greater than an average of 2.00 xxxxx per Usable square foot, and |
(ii) | collectively, Tenant’s equipment and lighting shall not have an electrical design load greater than an average of 3.75 xxxxx per Usable square foot. |
Upon the existence of Tenant’s excess electrical requirements, Landlord may, at its option, upon
not less than 30 days prior written notice to Tenant, discontinue electric services to the Premises
until Tenant reduces its power consumption to the permissible limits. Landlord will not be liable
in any way to Tenant for failure or defect in the supply or character of electric energy or any
other utility service furnished to the Premises because of any requirement, act, or omission of the
public utility servicing the Building. All installations of electrical fixtures, appliances, and
equipment within the Premises shall be subject to Landlord’s prior approval. Landlord’s obligation
to furnish utility services shall be subject to the rules and regulations of any municipal or other
governmental authority regulating the business of providing utility services. When Tenant’s use of
the Premises consumes power in excess of the Building Standard lighting and for normal office
machines of similar low consumption, then the usage of such additional consumption shall be
determined, at Landlord’s election, either
(i) | by a survey performed by a reputable consultant selected by Landlord (and paid for by Tenant when such additional consumption is proven), or |
(ii) | by separate meter in the Premises to be installed, maintained and read by Landlord at Tenant’s sole expense. |
Section 8.03 Failure to furnish, or any stoppage of, the services provided for in Article
7 above and in this Article 8 resulting from any cause will not make Landlord liable in any respect
for damages to either person, property, or business, nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor
entitle Tenant to any abatement of
7
Rental, nor relieve Tenant from its obligations under this Lease. Landlord will, with reasonable
diligence, repair any malfunction of the Building Improvements or facilities, but Tenant will have
no claim for rebate, abatement of Rental, or damages because of any malfunctions or interruptions
in service.
ARTICLE 9 — Use
The Premises shall be used for general office purposes, and for no other purpose and Tenant agrees
to use and maintain the Premises in a clean, careful, safe, lawful, and proper manner.
ARTICLE 10 — Laws, Ordinances and Requirements of Public Authorities
Tenant shall, at its sole expense,
(i) | comply with all laws, orders, ordinances, and regulations of federal, state, county, and municipal authorities having jurisdiction over the Premises, |
(ii) | comply with any direction made pursuant to law of any public officer or officers requiring abatement of any nuisance, or imposing any obligation, order, or duty upon Landlord or Tenant arising from Tenant’s use of the Premises or from conditions which have been created by or at the insistence of Tenant or required by reason of a breach of any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, and |
(iii) | indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord harmless from any loss, cost, claim, or expense which Landlord may incur or suffer by reason of Tenant’s failure to comply with its obligations under clauses (i) or (ii) above. If Tenant receives written notice of violation of any such law, order, ordinance, or regulation, it shall promptly notify Landlord thereof. |
ARTICLE 11 — Observance of Rules and Regulations
Tenant and its employees, agents, visitors, and licensees shall observe faithfully and comply
strictly with all Rules and Regulations attached to this Lease (Exhibit E). Landlord shall at all
times have the right to make reasonable changes in and additions to such Rules and Regulation. Any
failure by Landlord to enforce any of the Rules and Regulations now or hereafter in effect, either
against Tenant or any other Tenant in the Building, shall not constitute a waiver of any such Rules
and Regulations. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for the failure or refusal by any other
Tenant, guest, invitee, visitor, or occupant of the Building to comply with any of the Rules and
Regulations, but Landlord shall, after receipt of notice, take reasonable action to assure
compliance.
ARTICLE 12 — Alterations
Section 12.01 Tenant may not, at any time during the Term, without Landlord’s prior
written consent make any alterations to the Premises. All alterations shall be made at Tenant’s
expense, either by Tenant’s contractors which have been approved in writing by Landlord, or at
Landlord’s option, by Landlord’s contractors on terms reasonably satisfactory to Tenant, including
a fee of 15% of the actual costs to Landlord for performing such work to cover Landlord’s overhead.
8
Section 12.02 All Leasehold Improvements (whether Building Standard or Non-Building
Standard), alterations, and other physical additions made or installed by or for Tenant in or to
the Premises shall be and remain Landlord’s property, except Tenant’s furniture, furnishings,
personal property, and moveable trade fixtures, and shall not be removed without Landlord’s written
consent.
ARTICLE 13 — Liens
Tenant shall keep the Premises, the Building, and the property on which the Building is located,
free from any liens arising from any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred
by or at the request of Tenant. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as Landlord’s
consent to any performance of labor or furnishing of any materials for any specific improvements,
alteration, or repair of, or to, the Premises, that would result in any liens against the Premises
or liability of the Landlord. If, based upon acts of Tenant, any lien is filed against the
Premises, the Building, the Property on which the Building is located, or Tenant’s Leasehold
interests therein, Tenant shall discharge same within 10 days after its filing. If Tenant fails to
discharge such lien within such period, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord,
Landlord may, at its election, discharge the lien by either paying the amount claimed to be due,
obtaining the discharge by deposit with a court or a title company, or by bonding. Tenant shall
pay on demand any amount paid by Landlord for reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses
of Landlord incurred in defending any such action or in obtaining the discharge of such lien,
together with all necessary disbursements in connection therewith, to double the amount of the lien
claim plus a sufficient amount to cover any penalties, interest, attorneys’ fees, court costs, and
other legal expenses resulting from such contest. This bond shall name Landlord and such other
parties as Landlord may direct as beneficiaries thereunder.
ARTICLE 14 — Ordinary Repairs
Tenant shall, at all times during the Term hereof and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, keep the
Premises and every part thereof in good condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear, fire and
other casualty excepted. Subject to Article 20, section 20.02 herein, Tenant shall, at the end of
the term hereof, surrender the Premises, as repaired, to Landlord in the same condition as when
received, ordinary wear and tear excepted. If Tenant fails to make such repairs promptly, Landlord
may, at its option, make such repairs, and Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand Landlord’s actual
costs in making repairs plus a fee of (15%) to cover Landlord’s overhead.
ARTICLE 15 — Insurance
Section 15.01 Tenant shall, during the Term, at its sole expense, keep in force, with
Tenant, Landlord, and the mortgagees and ground lessors of Landlord named as additional insured
thereunder (except with respect to Worker’s Compensation coverage) all as their respective
interests may appear, the following insurance:
(a) | All Risk Insurance (including fire, extended coverage, vandalism, malicious mischief, extended perils, sprinkler leakage and debris removal) upon property of every description and kind owned by Tenant and located in the Building or for which Tenant is legally liable or installed by or on behalf of Tenant including, without limitation, fittings, installations, fixtures, removable trade fixtures, Non-Building Standard Leasehold Improvements (as defined in Exhibit B), and alterations, in an amount not less than the full replacement cost thereof. If there is a dispute as to the amount which comprises full replacement cost, the decision of Landlord or the mortgagees of Landlord shall be conclusive and binding. |
9
(b) | Commercial liability insurance coverage to include death, personal injury, bodily injury (not less that $1,000,000 limits), broad form property damage (not less than $1,000,000 limits), fire sprinkler hazard, operations hazard, owner’s protective coverage, contractual liability, and products and completed operations liability, with combined single liability limits not less than $1,000,000. Such coverage shall insure against all liability of Tenant and its authorized representatives and visitors arising out of, and in connection with, Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises. |
(c) | Worker’s Compensation and Employer’s Liability Insurance, with a waiver of subrogation endorsement, in form and amount satisfactory to Landlord. |
(d) | Any other form or forms of insurance as Tenant or Landlord or the mortgagees of Landlord may reasonably require from time to time in form, in amounts, and for insurance risks against which a prudent Tenant of a comparable size and in a comparable business would protect itself. |
All policies shall be issued by insurers with a Best’s Insurance Reports rating of A or better and
shall be in form satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant agrees that certificates of insurance on the
Landlord’s standard form, or certified copies of each such insurance policy, naming Landlord and
its mortgagees as additional insured, will be delivered to Landlord not later than 5 days prior to
the date that Tenant takes possession of any part of the Premises. All policies shall contain an
undertaking by the insurers to notify Landlord and the mortgagees of Landlord in writing, by
Registered U.S. Mail, not less than 30 days before any material change, reduction in coverage,
cancellation, or other termination thereof. All insurance shall be primarily as to Landlord and
not participating with any other available insurance. So long as Tenant is not in default,
proceeds of Tenant’s insurance shall be available to repair or replace the insured fixtures and
equipment.
Section 15.02 During the Term, Landlord shall insure the Building (but excluding
Non-Building Standard Leasehold Improvements and any other property which Tenant is obligated to
insure under Section 15.01 hereof) against damage by fire and standard extended coverage perils in
an amount equal to the full replacement cost thereof, and shall provide public liability insurance
in such amounts and with such deductions as Landlord considers appropriate. Landlord may, but
shall not be obligated to, take out and carry any other form or forms of insurance as it or
Landlord’s mortgagees may reasonably determine appropriate. Notwithstanding any contribution by
Tenant to the cost of insurance premiums, as provided herein, Tenant acknowledges that it has no
right to receive any proceeds from any insurance policies carried by Landlord. Landlord will not
be required to carry insurance of any kind on any Non-Building Standard Leasehold Improvements, on
Tenant’s furniture or furnishings, or on any of Tenant’s fixtures, equipment, improvements, or
appurtenances under this Lease; and Landlord shall not be obligated to repair or replace same.
Section 15.03 Tenant shall not keep in the Premises any article which may be prohibited by
any reasonable insurance policy periodically in force covering the Building. If Tenant’s occupancy
results in any increase in premiums for the insurance carried by Landlord, Tenant shall pay any
such increase in premiums as additional Rental within 10 days after being billed therefore. Tenant
shall promptly comply with all reasonable requirements of the insurance authority or any present or
future insurer relating to the Premises and the Building.
Section 15.04 If any of Landlord’s insurance policies shall be cancelled or cancellation
shall be threatened or the coverage hereunder reduced or threatened to be reduced, or if the
premiums on any of Landlord’s insurance policies are increased or threatened to be increased, in
any way because of Tenant’s use of the Premises and, if Tenant fails to remedy the cause thereof
within 48 hours after notice, Landlord may, at its
10
option, either terminate this Lease or enter upon the Premises and attempt to remedy such
condition, and Tenant shall promptly pay the cost thereof to Landlord as additional Rental.
Landlord shall not be liable for any damage or injury caused to any property of Tenant or of others
located on the Premises resulting from such entry. If Landlord is unable to remedy such condition,
then Landlord shall have all of the remedies provided for in this Lease in the event of a default
by Tenant.
Section 15.05 All policies covering real or personal property which either party obtains
affecting the Premises shall include a clause or endorsement denying the insurer any rights of
subrogation against the other party to the extent rights have been waived by the insured before the
occurrence of injury or loss. Landlord and Tenant hereby mutually waive any rights of recovery
against the other for injury or loss due to hazards covered by insurance containing such a waiver
of subrogation clause or endorsement to the extent of the injury or loss covered thereby.
ARTICLE 16 — Damage by Fire or Other Cause
Section 16.01 Subject to Sections 16.02 and 16.03 hereof, if the Building is damaged by
fire or other casualty so as to affect the Premises, Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord, who
shall (but only if the proceeds from Landlord’s insurance available to Landlord
(i) | are free from collection by Landlord’s mortgagee, ground or primary lessor, and |
(ii) | are sufficient) |
have the damage repaired with reasonable speed at the expense of Landlord, subject to delays which
may arise by reason of adjustment of loss under insurance policies and to other delays beyond
Landlord’s reasonable control. Provided such damage was not the result of the negligence or
willful misconduct of Tenant, or Tenant’s employees or invitees, an abatement in the Rental
hereunder shall be allowed as to that portion of the Premises rendered untenantable by such damage
until such time as Landlord determines that such damaged portion of the Premises has been made
tenantable for Tenant’s use.
Section 16.02 If the Premises are damaged or destroyed by any cause whatsoever, and if, in
the Landlord’s reasonable opinion the Premises cannot be rebuilt or made fit for Tenant’s purposes
within 120 days of the damage or destruction, or if the proceeds from insurance remaining after
payment of any such proceeds to Landlord’s mortgagee, ground, or primary lessor, are insufficient
to repair or restore the damage by destruction, Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease
by giving the Tenant, within 60 days after such damage or destruction, notice of termination, and
thereupon Rental and any other payments for which Tenant is liable under this Lease shall be
apportioned and paid to the date of such damage, and Tenant shall immediately vacate the Premises,
provided, however, that those provisions of this Lease which are designated to cover matters of
termination and the period thereafter shall survive the termination hereof.
Section 16.03 If either
(a) | the Building is damaged or destroyed to the extent that, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion it would not be economically feasible to repair or restore such damage or destruction, or |
(b) | in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the damage or destruction to the Building cannot be repaired or restored within 60 days after such damage or destruction, |
Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease by giving Tenant, within 60 days after such
damage, notice of such termination requiring Tenant to vacate the Premises 60 days after delivery
of the notice of
11
termination, and thereupon Rental and any other payments shall be apportioned and paid to the date
on which possession is relinquished and Tenant shall immediately vacate the Premises according to
such notice of termination, provided, however, that those provisions of this Lease which are
designed to cover matters of termination and the period thereafter shall survive the termination
hereof.
Section 16.04 No damages shall be payable by Landlord for inconvenience, loss of business,
or annoyance arising from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises, or the
Building. Landlord shall use its best efforts to have such repairs made promptly so as not to
unnecessarily interfere with Tenant’s occupancy.
Section 16.05 The provisions of this Article shall be considered an express agreement
governing any case of damage or destruction of the Building, the Building Standard Leasehold
Improvements, the Non-Building Standard Leasehold Improvements, the alterations, or the Premises by
fire or other casualty.
ARTICLE 17 — Condemnation
If the Premises shall be taken or condemned, in whole or in part, for any public purpose to such an
extent as to render said Premises untenantable, this Lease shall, at the option of Landlord or
Tenant, forthwith terminate. All proceeds from any taking or condemnation shall belong to and be
paid to Landlord, except to the extent of any proceeds awarded to Tenant on account of moving and
relocation expenses and depreciation to and removal of Tenant’s physical property.
ARTICLE 18 — Assignment and Subletting
Section 18.01 If Tenant should desire to assign this Lease or sublet the Premises (or any
part thereof), Tenant shall give Landlord written notice at least 60 days in advance thereof.
Landlord shall then have a period of 30 days following receipt of such notice within which to
notify Tenant in writing that Landlord elects either
(a) | to terminate this Lease as to the space so affected by Tenant in its notice, in which event Tenant, subject to the provisions of this Lease which expressly survive the termination hereof, shall be relieved of all further obligations hereunder as to such space; |
(b) | to permit Tenant to assign or sublet such space, subject, however, to the subsequent written approval of the proposed assignee or subtenant by Landlord, and provided that if the Rental rate agreed upon between Tenant and its proposed subtenant is greater than the Rental rate that Tenant must pay Landlord hereunder, then 100% of such excess Rental shall be considered additional Rental owed by Tenant to Landlord, and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord in the same manner that Tenant pays Annual Base Rental; or |
(c) | to refuse to consent to Tenant’s assignment or subleasing of such space and to continue this Lease in full force and effect as to the entire Premises, in which case, any judgment against Landlord for unreasonable denial shall be limited to specific performance of approval of said assignment or sublease. |
No assignment or subletting by Tenant shall relieve Tenant of Tenant’s obligations under this
Lease. Any attempted assignment or sublease by Tenant in violation of the terms and provisions of
this Section 18.01
12
shall be void. In no event shall Tenant solicit assignees or sub lessees in other Buildings owned
by Landlord, or at less than a fair market rate.
Section 18.02 Landlord may sell, transfer, assign, and convey all or any part of the
Building and any and all of its rights under this Lease, provided Landlord’s successor in interest
assumes Landlord’s obligations hereunder, and in the event Landlord assigns its rights under this
Lease, Landlord shall be released from any further obligations hereunder, and Tenant agrees to look
solely to Landlord’s successor in interest for performance of such obligations.
ARTICLE 19 — Indemnification
Tenant waives all claims against Landlord for damage to any property or injury to, or death of, any
person in, upon, or about the Building, the Premises or Parking Facilities arising at any time and
from any and all causes whatsoever other than solely by reason of the negligence or willful
misconduct of Landlord, its agents, employees, representatives, or contractors, and Tenant agrees
that it will defend, indemnify, save, and hold harmless, Landlord from and against all claims,
demands, actions, damages, loss, cost, liabilities, expenses, and judgments suffered by, recovered
from, or asserted against Landlord on account of any damage to any property or injury to, or death
of, any person arising from the use of the Building, the Premises, or the Parking Facilities by
Tenant or its employees or invitees, except such as is caused solely by the negligence or willful
misconduct of Landlord, its agents, employees, representatives, or contractors. Tenant’s foregoing
indemnity obligation shall include reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by Landlord. The provisions of this Article 19 shall survive the termination of
this Lease with respect to any damage, injury, or death occurring before such termination. If
Landlord is made a party to any litigation commenced by or against Tenant or relating to this Lease
or to the Premises, and provided that in any such litigation, Landlord is not finally adjudicated
to be at fault, then Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and court
costs, incurred by or imposed upon Landlord because of any such litigation, and the amount of all
such costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and court costs, shall be a demand obligation
owing by Tenant to Landlord, and shall be considered as additional Rental.
ARTICLE 20 — Surrender of the Premises
Section 20.01 Upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease for any cause
whatsoever, Tenant shall peacefully vacate the Premises in as good order and condition as the same
were at the beginning of the Term or may thereafter have been improved by Landlord or Tenant,
subject only to reasonable use and wear thereof, and repairs which are Landlord’s obligation
hereunder.
Section 20.02 Landlord may require Tenant to remove any Non-Building Standard Leasehold
Improvements, alterations, and physical additions installed in the Premises upon termination of
this Lease. In the event Landlord so elects, and Tenant fails to remove the aforementioned items,
Landlord may remove and store same at Tenant’s cost, and Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand, the
cost of restoring the Premises to Building Standard, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Tenant
agrees to remove, at Tenant’s expense, all of its furniture, furnishings, personal property, and
moveable trade fixtures by the Expiration Date, and shall promptly reimburse Landlord for the cost
of repairing all damage done to the Premises or the Building by such removal.
Section 20.03 Should Tenant continue to hold the Premises after the termination of this
Lease, whether the termination occurs by lapse of time or otherwise, such holding over shall,
unless otherwise agreed to by Landlord in writing, constitute and be construed as a tenancy at will
at a monthly Rental equal to 2.5 times the monthly Rental Rate for the Premises as of the date of
termination, and subject to all of the other terms
13
set forth herein except any right to renew or expand this Lease. Tenant shall be liable to
Landlord for all damage which Landlord suffers because of any holding over by Tenant, and Tenant
shall indemnify Landlord against all claims made by any other Tenant or prospective Tenant against
Landlord resulting from delay by Landlord in delivering possession of the Premises to such other
Tenant or prospective Tenant.
ARTICLE 21 — Estoppel Certificates
Tenant agrees to furnish, when requested by Landlord or the holder of any deeds of trust covering
the Building, the Land, or any interest of Landlord therein, a certificate signed by Tenant
certifying to such parties as Landlord may designate to the extent true matters with respect to the
terms and status of this Lease and the Premises, stating that Tenant, as of the date of such
certificate, has no charge, lien, or claim of offset under this Lease or otherwise against Rentals
or other charges due or to become due hereunder; and such other matters as may be requested by
Landlord or the holder of any such deeds of trust. To the extent any such statements requested are
not true, Tenant shall explain such facts in writing. Landlord agrees periodically to furnish,
when reasonably requested in writing by Tenant, certificates signed by Landlord containing
substantially the same information as described above.
ARTICLE 22 — Subordination
Section 22.01 This Lease is subject and subordinate to any deeds of trust, mortgages, or
other security instruments, and any other supplements or amendments thereto, which presently or may
in the future cover the Building and the Land or any interest of Landlord therein, and to any
increases, renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, and extensions of any of such
deeds of trust, mortgages, or security instruments. Landlord agrees to use his best efforts to
obtain for Tenant a “non-disturbance” agreement from the holder or beneficiary of any deeds of
trust, mortgages or other security instruments that in the future may cover the Building and the
Land or any interest of Landlord therein. This provision is declared by Landlord and Tenant to be
self-operative and no further instrument shall be required to effect such subordination of this
Lease. Tenant shall, however, upon demand, execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord any
further instruments and certificates evidencing such subordination as Landlord may require. This
Lease is further subject and subordinate to
(a) | all ground or primary Leases in existence at the date hereof and to any supplements, modifications, and extensions thereof heretofore or hereafter made, and |
(b) | utility easements and agreements, covenants, restrictions, and other encumbrances which do not materially adversely effect Tenant’s intended use of the Premises, both existing and future. |
Section 22.02 Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing provisions of Section 22.01
hereof, any such mortgagee or ground or primary lessor shall have the right at any time to
subordinate any such ground or primary Leases, deeds of trust, mortgages, or other security
instruments to this Lease on such terms and subject to such conditions as such mortgagee or ground
or primary lessor may consider appropriate in its discretion. At any time, before or after the
institution of any proceedings for the foreclosure of any such deeds of trust, mortgages, or other
security instruments or termination of any ground or primary Lease, or sale of the Building under
any such deeds of trust, mortgages, or other security instruments or termination of any ground or
primary Lease, Tenant shall attorn to such ground or primary lessor or such purchaser upon any such
sale or the grantee under any deed in lieu of such foreclosure and shall recognize such ground or
primary lessor or such purchaser or grantee as Landlord under this Lease. The agreement of Tenant
to attorn contained in the immediately preceding sentence shall survive any such termination of any
ground or primary Lease, foreclosure sale, trustee’s sale, or conveyance in lieu thereof. Tenant
shall upon demanded at
14
any time, before or after any such termination, execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord’s
mortgagee or ground or primary lessor any written instruments and certificates evidencing such
attornment as Landlord’s mortgagee or ground or primary lessor may reasonably require.
ARTICLE 23 — Parking
Landlord will permit Tenant to use the areas designated by Landlord (“Parking Area”) for parking of
vehicles in common with other Tenants in the Building during the Term as more fully provided for in
Exhibit C hereto.
ARTICLE 24 — Default and Remedies
Section 24.01 The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall, at
Landlord’s option, constitute an event of default of this Lease:
(a) | if Tenant shall fail to pay any Rental or other sums payable by Tenant hereunder within 10 days of written notice thereof from Landlord (provided, however, if such event of default shall occur more than once in every 6 months period, Landlord shall not be required to provide any written notice of default and an event of default shall occur as and when such Rental or other sums becomes due and payable); |
(b) | if Tenant shall fail to perform or observe any other term hereof or any of the Rules and Regulations and such failure shall continue for more than 30 days after notice thereof from Landlord; |
(c) | if Tenant fails to take occupancy within 30 days following substantial completion; |
(d) | if Tenant deserts or vacates any substantial portion of the Premises; |
(e) | if any petition is filed by or against Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease under any section or chapter of the present or any future Federal Bankruptcy Code or under any similar law or statute of the United States or any state thereof; |
(f) | if Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease becomes insolvent or makes a transfer in fraud of creditors; |
(g) | if Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or |
(h) | if a receiver, custodian, or trustee is appointed for Tenant or for any of the assets of Tenant which appointment is not vacated within 30 days of the date of such appointment. |
Section 24.02 If an event of default occurs, at any time thereafter Landlord may do one or
more of the following without any additional notice or demand:
(a) | Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord. If Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without notice and without prejudice to any other remedy Landlord may have, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and its effects without being liable to prosecution or any claim for damages therefore; and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all loss and damage which |
15
Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination, whether through inability to relet the Premises or otherwise, including any loss of Rental for the remainder of the Term. Any such loss of Rental shall be offset by any Rental received by Landlord as a result of reletting the Premises during the remainder of the Term. |
(b) | Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant’s event of default shall be considered a total breach of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and Tenant immediately shall become liable for such damages for such breach amount, equal to the total of: |
(1) | the costs of recovering the Premises; |
(2) | the unpaid Rental due for the remaining term as of the date of termination, plus interest thereon at a rate per annum from the due date equal to 5% percent over the Prime Rate; provided, however, that such interest shall never exceed the Highest Lawful Rate; |
(3) | the total Rental and other benefits which Landlord would have received under the Lease for the remainder of the Term, at the rates then in effect, together with all other expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with Tenant’s default, |
(4) | all other sums of money and damages owing by Tenant and Landlord. |
(c) | Enter upon and take possession of the Premises as Tenant’s agent without terminating this Lease and without being liable to prosecution or any claim for damages therefore, and Landlord may relet the Premises as Tenant’s agent and receive the Rental therefore, in which event Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the cost of renovating, repairing, and altering the Premises for a new Tenant or Tenants and any deficiency that may arise by reason of such reletting; provided, however, that Landlord shall have no duty to relet the Premises and Landlord’s failure to relet the Premises shall not release or affect Tenant’s liability for Rental or for damages. |
(d) | Do whatever Tenant is obligated to do under this Lease and may enter the Premises without being liable to prosecution or any claim for damages therefore, to accomplish this purpose. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord immediately upon demand for any expenses which Landlord incurs in thus effecting compliance with this Lease on Tenant’s behalf, and Landlord shall not be liable for any damages suffered by Tenant from such action, whether caused by the negligence of Landlord or otherwise. |
Section 24.03 No act or thing done by Landlord or its agents during the Term shall
constitute an acceptance of an attempted surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept a
surrender of the Premises or to terminate this Lease shall be valid unless made in writing and
signed by Landlord. No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall constitute
an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease, unless a written notice of such intention is given
to Tenant Notwithstanding any such reletting or re-entry or taking possession, Landlord may at any
time thereafter terminate this Lease for a previous default. Landlord’s acceptance of Rental
following an event of default hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of such event of
default. No waiver by Landlord of any breach of this Lease shall constitute a waiver of any other
violation or breach of any time of the terms hereof. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or
more of the remedies herein provided upon a breach hereof shall not constitute a waiver of any
other breach of the Lease.
16
Section 24.04 No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Landlord
unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Landlord. Nor shall any custom or practice which
may evolve between the parties in the administration of the terms of this Lease be construed to
waive or lessen Landlord’s right to insist upon strict performance of the terms of this Lease. The
rights granted to Landlord in this Lease shall be cumulative of every other right or remedy which
Landlord may otherwise have at law or in equity or by statue, and the exercise of one or more
rights or remedies shall not prejudice or impair the current or subsequent exercise of other rights
or remedies.
ARTICLE 25 — Waiver by Tenant
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Tenant waives for itself and all claiming by, through,
and under it, including creditors of all kinds
(a) | any right and privilege which it or any of them may have under any present or future constitution, statute, or rule of law to redeem the Premises or to have a continuance of this Lease for the Term after termination of Tenant’s right of occupancy by order or judgment of any court or by any legal process or writ, under the terms of this Lease, or after the termination of the Term as herein provided, |
(b) | the benefits of any present or future constitution, statute, or rule of law which exempts property form liability for debt or for distress for rent, and |
(c) | the provisions of law relating to notice and/or delay in levy of execution in case of eviction of a Tenant for non-payment of rent. |
ARTICLE 26 — Security Deposit
The Security Deposit if any shall be held by Landlord, without interest, as security for the
performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Landlord may, without prejudice to any other
remedy, use the Security Deposit to remedy any default in any obligation of Tenant hereunder, and
such use shall survive the termination of this Lease, and Tenant shall promptly, on demand, restore
the Security Deposit to its original amount. If Tenant is not in default at the termination of
this Lease, any remaining portion of the Security Deposit shall be returned to Tenant. If Landlord
transfers its interest in the Premises during the Term, Landlord shall assign the Security Deposit
to the transferee who shall then become obligated to Tenant for its return, and thereafter Landlord
shall have no further liability for its return.
ARTICLE 27 — Attorney’s Fees and Legal Expenses
In any action or proceeding brought by either party against the other with respect to this Lease,
the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party’s reasonable attorneys’
fees, investigation costs, and other legal expenses and court costs incurred by such party in such
action or proceeding as the court may find to be reasonable. The prevailing party shall be the one
who receives the net judgment in its behalf at the end of any action.

created or any interest in this Lease or in any interest in such fee estate. In the event of a

limited to Landlord’s interest in the Building and the Land, and Landlord shall not be personally
liable for any deficiency.

regulations, or restrictions, or any other cause of any kind whatsoever which is beyond the control
of such party.

notices, or the release of any party liable for the payment of Tenant’s obligations hereunder.

representations or promises with respect to the Premises or the Building except as herein expressly
set forth and all reliance with respect to any representations or promises is based solely on those

or underlying Lease, any lender shall request reasonable modifications in the Lease as a condition

adversely affect either the Leasehold interest hereby created or Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the
Premises.
Section 29.15 This Lease shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Any action brought to enforce or interpret this Lease shall be
brought in the court of appropriate jurisdiction in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. Should any
provision of this Lease require judicial interpretation, it is agreed that the Court interpreting
or considering same shall not apply the presumption that the terms hereof shall be more strictly
construed against a party by reason of the rule or conclusion that a document should be construed
more strictly against the party who itself or through its agent prepared the same, it being agreed
that all parties hereto have participated in the preparation of this Lease and that legal counsel
was consulted by each party before the execution of this Lease.

Lease, to show them to prospective Tenants at reasonable hours and, if they are vacated, to prepare
them for re-occupancy. Landlord shall cause its officers, agents and representatives to exercise
care with any such entry not to unreasonably interfere with the operation and normal office routine
of Tenant (except in the case of emergency).

containing at least the same amount of Rentable Area as contained in the Premises (“Substitution
Space”). If such relocation occurs, the description of the Premises set forth in this Lease shall,
without further act on the part of Landlord or Tenant, be deemed amended so that the Substitution
Space shall be deemed the Premises hereunder, and all of the terms, covenants, conditions and
provisions of this Lease shall continue in full force and effect and shall apply to the
Substitution Space. The cost of relocating Tenant and altering the Substitution Space to make it
comparable to the Premises shall be borne by Landlord. The Annual Base Rental for the Substitution
Space shall be the amount specified under item 14 of the Basic Lease Information.
Section 29.20 The Exhibits and numbered riders attached to this Lease are by this
reference incorporated fully herein. The term “this Lease” shall be considered to include all such
