Tenant's notice of termination under this Paragraph
(the "Second Expansion Space Termination Date"); or
(b) the date of termination of the Lease set forth in
Tenant's notice to Landlord with respect to the VAD

13, 1996.) The VAD Space Commencement Date for Phase I shall be
pushed back one (1) day for each day that the VAD Space
Construction for Phase I is delayed due to (i) Tenant-generated
change orders to the VAD Space Plans; (ii) delays of any nature
whatsoever caused by Tenant; and/or (iii) Tenant negligence or
willful misconduct. Landlord shall give Tenant written notice
of the anticipated VAD Space Commencement Date for Phase I on
or about seven (7) days before such Date. Upon the occurrence
of the VAD Space Commencement Date for Phase I, Landlord and
Tenant shall execute a written statement setting forth such
Date.
(ii) The VAD Space Commencement Date for Phase
II shall be the date that Phase II of the VAD Space
Construction, as shown on Exhibit A, is substantially complete,
as certified to Tenant by Landlord's architect for the VAD
Space Construction, and the date that Landlord has obtained a
final certificate of occupancy and all other licenses and
permits required with respect to construction-related issues
only, for Phase II of the VAD Space Construction. The VAD Space
Commencement Date for Phase II shall be pushed back one (1) day
for each day that the VAD Space Construction for Phase II is
delayed due to (i) Tenant-generated change orders to the VAD
Space Plans; (ii) delays of any nature whatsoever caused by
Tenant; and/or (iii) Tenant negligence or wilful misconduct.
Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of the anticipated
VAD Space Commencement Date for Phase II on or about seven (7)
days before such Date. Upon the occurrence of the VAD Space
Commencement Date for Phase II, Landlord and Tenant shall
execute a written statement setting forth such Date.
c. Possession of VAD Space. This Fourth Amendment
will remain fully effective and Tenant may not cancel or
rescind it due to late possession, regardless of when
possession is actually delivered. Moreover, in no event will
Landlord be liable to Tenant for damages, if any, sustained by
Tenant as a result of Landlord's delay in delivering the VAD
Space, except damages sustained solely as a direct result of
Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
d. Acceptance of VAD Space. Upon Landlord's
delivery of possession of the VAD Space to Tenant, Tenant will
be deemed to have accepted the VAD Space, subject to Landlord's
duties otherwise provided herein.
8. Basic Annual Rent for VAD Space.
a. Amount of Basic Annual Rent for VAD Space. Basic
Annual Rent for the VAD Space shall equal One Hundred Forty-Six
Thousand Fifty-One Dollars and Twenty-Five Cents ($146,051.25)
per annum, payable in equal monthly installments of Twelve
Thousand One Hundred Seventy Dollars and Ninety-Four Cents
($12,170.94); provided, however, that for the period from the
VAD Space Commencement Date for Phase I through the VAD Space
Commencement Date for Phase II, the applicable monthly
installment of Basic Annual Rent shall equal Six Thousand
Eighty-Five Dollars an Forty-Seven Cents ($6,085.47). Payment
of the first monthly installment hereunder shall commence on
the VAD Space Commencement Date for Phase I; provided that if
payment commences on a date that is not the first day of a

increase once annually on December 1, 1997 and on every
December 1 thereafter during the Lease Term at a fixed rate of
three percent (3%) per year.
b. Payment of Basic Annual Rent for VAD Space. The
above amounts of Basic Annual Rent for the VAD Space shall be
paid at the time and in addition to the payment of Basic Annual
Rent for the Leased Premises, and otherwise in the manner set
forth in Article III.B of the Lease.
c. Security Deposit. There shall be no Security
Deposit required hereunder for the VAD Space.
9. Adjustments to Square Footages and Percentages
a. Paragraph III.C(l)(c) of the Lease shall be
amended so that the term "Rentable Area of the Leased Premises"
shall be deemed to be Sixty-Nine Thousand Five Hundred Nine
(69,509) square feet rather than Fifty-Eight Thousand Fifty-
Four (58,054) square feet so that the term includes the VAD
Space. This amended square footage number shall apply
throughout the Lease to all references to the square footage of
the Leased Premises. However, the second through final
sentences of Paragraph III.C(l)(c) of the Lease, as amended
by this Fourth Amendment, shall not apply to the VAD Space.
There shall be no certification required of the gross Rentable
Area of the VAD Space.
b. Paragraph III.C(l)(e) of the Lease shall be
amended as of the VAD Space Commencement Date so that the term
"Tenant's Portion (with respect to the payment of Common
Area Expenses, Taxes and Insurance)" will be Fifty and Sixty-
Five One Hundredths Percent (50.65%) rather than Forty-Two
and Thirty-One One Hundredths Percent (42.31%), so that the
term includes the VAD Space. This amended Tenant's Portion
shall apply throughout the Lease.
c. The estimated amounts set forth in Paragraph
III.C(2) (a) and (b) of the Lease shall be amended as of the
VAD Space Commencement Date by adding thereto the estimated
amounts of such Taxes, Insurance and Common Area Expenses
for the VAD Space. Therefore, commencing on the VAD Space
Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in
addition to the amounts set forth in the Lease sections
listed above, with and at the same time as the monthly payments
of Basic Annual Rent, the following amounts with respect to the
VAD Space:
(i) One Thousand Twenty-One Dollars and Forty
Cents ($1,021.40) per month as one-twelfth of Tenant's
estimated Portion of Common Area Expenses, which amount
includes One Hundred Forty-Three Dollars and Nineteen Cents
($143.19) per month as one-twelfth of Tenant's estimated
Portion of the Insurance Costs. The limitation on increases in
Common Area Expenses under the Lease shall apply to Tenant's
Portion of Common Area Expenses for the VAD Space, except that
the Common Area Expenses for the VAD Space for the first Lease
Year shall not be limited in any way.
(ii) One Thousand Four Hundred Forty-One
Dollars and Forty-Two Cents ($1,441.42) per month as
one-twelfth of Tenant's estimated Portion of Taxes.
10. Use Restrictions and Rules. Paragraph IV.A of the
Original Lease shall apply to the VAD Space.
11. Improvements by Tenant. Subsection (i) of the second
paragraph of Paragraph IV.B of the Lease shall be stricken in
its entirety and replaced with the following:
"(i) the aggregate cost of the same does not exceed
One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) with respect
to the Expanded Leased Premises, Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($50,000) with respect to the Second
Expansion Space, or Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000)
with respect to the VAD Space . . ."
12. Insurance. Paragraph IV.E of the Original Lease and
shall apply to the VAD Space.
13. Damage and Destruction. Article VI of the Lease shall
be amended by adding the underlined language to the last
paragraph thereof and adding a new paragraph at the end thereof
as follows:
Notwithstanding the preceding three (3) paragraphs of
this Article VI, if Landlord or Tenant has the right to
terminate the Lease pursuant to this Article VI due to damage
or destruction to the Expanded Leased Premises only (excluding
the Second Expansion Space and VAD Space) by fire, other
casualty, or any other cause (except condemnation), then
Landlord or Tenant automatically shall have the right pursuant
to this Article VI to terminate the Lease with respect to the
Second Expansion Space and VAD Space, regardless of whether the
Second Expansion Space and/or the VAD Space has suffered any
damage or destruction. In addition to the termination rights
with respect to the Second Expansion Space and VAD Space in the
immediately preceding sentence, Tenant shall have the right to
terminate the Lease with respect to the Second Expansion Space
and VAD Space within one (1) year of the date of damage or
destruction to the Expanded Leased Premises, upon thirty (30)
days' prior written notice to Landlord. In the event of such
termination, the same conditions shall apply as are set forth
in Article VI. If Landlord or Tenant has the right to terminate
the Lease pursuant to this Article VI due to damage or
destruction to the Second Expansion Space and/or VAD Space only
(excluding the Expanded Leased Premises), Landlord or Tenant
shall not have any right to terminate the Lease with respect to
the Expanded Leased Premises. If Landlord or Tenant duly
terminates the Lease under Article VI with respect to the
Second Expansion Space and/or VAD Space, the Lease shall remain
in full force and effect with respect to the Expanded Leased
Premises, and the Second Expansion Space and/or VAD Space shall
be stricken from the definition of "Leased Premises" under the
Lease. Upon such damage or destruction to the Second Expansion
Space and/or the VAD Space, the parties agree to enter into an
amendment to the Lease setting forth the reduced Leased
Premises and other related changes to the Lease, including,
without limitation, reduction of Basic Annual Rent and Tenant's
Portion of Common Area Expenses, Taxes and Insurance.
Notwithstanding anything set forth above in this
Article VI, if Landlord or Tenant has the right to terminate
the Lease pursuant to this Article VI due to damage or
destruction to one or the other of the Second Expansion Space
or the VAD Space, but not both Spaces, then Landlord or Tenant
shall not have the right to terminate the Lease under this
provision with respect to the non-damaged Space in Building B,
or with respect to the Expanded Leased Premises.
14. Condemnation. The last sentence of the second
paragraph of Article VII of the Lease shall only apply to the
Expanded Leased Premises, and shall not apply to the Second
Expansion Space and VAD Space. In addition, Article VII of the
Lease shall be amended by adding the underlined language to the
last paragraph thereof and adding a new paragraph at the end
thereof as follows:
Notwithstanding the preceding two (2) paragraphs of
this Article VII, if Landlord or Tenant has the right to
terminate the Lease pursuant to this Article VII due to taking
or condemnation of the Expanded Leased Premises only
(excluding the Second Expansion Space and VAD Space), then
Landlord or Tenant automatically shall have the right pursuant
to this Article VII to terminate the Lease with respect to the
Second Expansion Space and VAD Space, regardless of whether the
Second Expansion Space and/or the VAD Space has been condemned
in whole or in part. However, if Landlord or Tenant has any
right to terminate the Lease pursuant to this Article VII due
to condemnation or taking of the Second Expansion Space and/or
VAD Space only (excluding the Expanded Leased Premises),
Landlord or Tenant shall not have the right to terminate the
Lease with respect to the Expanded Leased Premises. If Landlord
or Tenant duly terminates the Lease under Article VII with
respect to the Second Expansion Space and/or VAD Space, the
Lease shall remain in full force and effect with respect to the
Expanded Leased Premises, and the Second Expansion Space and/or
VAD Space shall be stricken from the definition of "Leased
Premises" under the Lease. Upon such condemnation of the
Second Expansion Space and/or VAD Space, the parties agree to
enter into an amendment to the Lease setting forth the reduced
Leased Premises and other related changes to the Lease,
including, without limitation, a reduction of Basic Annual Rent
and Tenant's Portion of Common Area Expenses, Taxes and
Insurance.
Notwithstanding anything set forth above in this
Article VII, if Landlord or Tenant has the right to terminate
the Lease pursuant to this Article VII due to taking or
condemnation of one or the other of the Second Expansion Space
or the VAD Space, but not both Spaces, then Landlord or Tenant
shall not have the right to terminate the Lease under this
provision with respect to the non-condemned Space in Building
B, or with respect to the Expanded Leased Premises.
15. Parking. Paragraph X.O of the Lease shall be amended
by adding Tenant's right to the non-exclusive use of an
additional three (3) parking spaces per one thousand (1,000)
square feet of the VAD Space for a total of Thirty-Four (34)
parking spaces. Therefore, in addition to the 214 non-exclusive
and 15 exclusive parking spaces set forth in the Lease, Tenant
shall have the non-exclusive use of 34 additional parking
spaces in the front and rear of Building B. If Tenant's loading
requirements or other requirements in the rear of Building B
are such that there is room for additional parking, then Tenant
shall have the non-exclusive use of additional parking spaces
in the rear of Building B.
16. Rights of First Offer. The provisions of Paragraph 18
of the First Amendment shall be amended to the extent, and only
to the extent, set forth below:
a. (i) Tenant shall have the right of first offer
(the "Hitachi First Offer Right"), on the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth, to lease that portion of Building B
contiguous to the VAD Space (the "Hitachi First Offer Space"),
as shown on Exhibit A, containing approximately Three Thousand
Three Hundred Seventy (3,370) rentable square feet, and as of
the date first set forth above, occupied by Nissei Sangyo
America, Ltd. ("Hitachi") under a lease between Landlord and
Hitachi (the "Hitachi Lease") at such time as such Space
becomes available after its initial leasing by Hitachi. Tenant
shall have the right to lease the Hitachi First Offer Space at
the then-current VAD Space Basic Annual Rent, with a tenant
improvement allowance of Seven Dollars and Fifty Cents ($7.50)
per square foot.
(ii) Tenant shall have the right of first offer
(the "Bodymasters First Offer Right"), on the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth, to lease that portion of
Building B contiguous to the VAD Space (the "Bodymasters First
Offer Space"), as shown on Exhibit A, containing approximately
Ten Thousand Seventy-Three (10,073) rentable square feet, and
occupied as of the Effective Date by Healthco Fitness
("Bodymasters") under a lease between Landlord and Bodymasters
(the "Bodymasters Lease"). Tenant shall have the Bodymasters
First Offer Right at such time as the Bodymasters First Offer
Space becomes available, subject to any renewal options in the
Bodymasters Lease. Tenant shall have the right to lease the
Bodymasters First Offer Space at the then-current market rent
(as determined below), including, without limitation, then-
current market increases of basic annual rent for each lease
year of such lease. Market rent shall be determined based, in
part, upon a tenant improvement allowance for the Bodymasters
First Offer Space agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant.
Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith
to determine market rent for the Bodymasters First Offer Space,
based on the mutually-agreed tenant improvement allowance,
within ten (10) days after Landlord receives Tenant's First
Offer Notice (as defined below). However, if Landlord and
Tenant cannot agree on a market rent within such ten (10)-day
period, after diligent, good faith efforts, then market rent
for the Bodymasters First Offer Space, taking into
consideration the tenant improvement allowance established by
Landlord and Tenant, shall be determined by a three-broker
method conducted as follows:
(1) Within five (5) days after Landlord and
Tenant shall have failed to agree upon a market rent during the
ten (10)-day period set forth above, Landlord and Tenant shall
give written notice to the other that each, at its own expense,
has hired and appointed as a broker, a disinterested person of
recognized competence and professional experience as a broker
of comparable commercial and industrial real estate in the
Baltimore-Washington Metropolitan Area. The two (2) brokers
thus appointed shall diligently work together for fifteen (15)
days after their appointment to determine the market rent for
the Bodymasters First Offer Space. Landlord and Tenant shall
each be entitled to present evidence and argument to the two
(2) brokers. If the two brokers cannot agree on such a market
rent within such fifteen (15)-day period, they shall each
prepare a written report setting forth what each believes the
market rent to be and the supporting data therefor. They shall
then appoint a third broker who shall also be a disinterested
person of recognized competence and professional experience as
a broker of comparable commercial and industrial real estate in
the Baltimore-Washington Metropolitan Area (the "Broker"). In
the event that the two (2) brokers appointed as aforesaid shall
be unable to agree, within ten (10) days after their failure to
agree on a market rent, on the appointment of the Broker, they
shall give written notice of such failure to the parties
hereto, and the parties shall request that such appointment be
made by the then President of the Maryland/Washington, D.C.
Chapter of the Society of Industrial and Office Realtors (or
any organized successor thereto) within thirty (30) days after
such request. The Broker shall, as promptly as possible, but in
no event more than thirty (30) days after the date of his or
her selection, determine the market rent for the Bodymasters
First Offer Space, without having access to the reports of the
first two (2) brokers. Landlord and Tenant shall each be
entitled to present evidence and argument to the Broker. Once
the Broker has determined the market rent, the final market
rent shall be determined as follows: (a) if the Broker's
determination is higher than that of both of the first two
brokers, then the higher market rent as determined by the first
two brokers shall be conclusive and binding on Landlord and
Tenant; (b) if the Broker's determination is lower than that of
both of the first two brokers, then the lower market rent as
determined by the first two brokers shall be conclusive and
binding on Landlord and Tenant; and (c) if the Broker's
determination is between that of the first two brokers, then
the Broker's determination shall be conclusive and binding on
Landlord and Tenant.
(2) After the market rent has been
determined by the two (2) brokers, or determined by the method
involving the Broker, as applicable, written notice shall
immediately be given to Landlord and Tenant stating the
determination(s), and Landlord and Tenant shall be furnished a
copy of such determination(s) signed by the decision-maker(s).
If the Broker is utilized, Landlord and Tenant shall review all
three (3) determinations to arrive at the final market rent
pursuant to the method set forth above. Landlord and Tenant
shall each pay one-half (1/2) of the costs of the Broker, if
applicable.
(iii) Tenant shall exercise either of or both
its First Offer Rights only upon written notification to
Landlord of Tenant's exercise of any such First Offer Right
(the "First Offer Notice"). Such First Offer Notice must be
given to Landlord within five (5) business days after Tenant
receives Landlord's written notification to Tenant ("Landlord's
Offer") of the termination of the Hitachi and/or Bodymasters
Lease, as applicable.
(iv) Time is of the essence with respect to
Tenant's exercise of its rights under this Subparagraph, and
Tenant acknowledges that Landlord requires strict adherence to
the requirement that the applicable First Offer Notice be
timely made and in writing. Within ten (10) days after the
market rent for the Bodymasters First Offer Space has been
determined as provided above, Tenant shall have the right, by
written notice to Landlord, to rescind its exercise of its
Bodymasters First Officer Notice, as applicable.
(v) In the event Tenant fails to provide
Landlord with the applicable First Offer Notice within the five
(5) day period set forth in Subparagraph 16(a)(iii) above,
Landlord shall be free to offer said Hitachi or Bodymasters
First Offer Space to a third party on any terms whatsoever, and
the applicable First Offer Right shall be null and void and of
no further force and effect.
(vi) In the event that either one or both of
the First Offer Rights are exercised by Tenant, the rent
applicable to the applicable First Offer Space as set forth
above in this Paragraph 16, shall be payable in equal monthly
installments (and, where applicable, fractions thereof), at the
times and in the manner as provided with respect to, and in
addition to, the monthly installments of the Basic Annual Rent
as set forth in Article III.B. of the Lease.
b. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Paragraph 16, the following provisions shall apply to the First
Offer Rights and to Tenant's lease, if any, of the applicable
First Offer Space.
(i) Tenant shall not be entitled to exercise
the rights accorded to Tenant in Subparagraph 16(a), unless on
the date Tenant gives Landlord notice of such exercise and on
the applicable First Offer Space Commencement Date, as
hereinafter defined, Tenant (for purposes of this subsection
only, the term "Tenant" shall be deemed to be MedImmune, Inc.
or an entity which succeeds to all or substantially all of the
assets of MedImmune, Inc.) is in possession of the Leased
Premises and Tenant is not in default of the Lease;
(ii) The lease by Tenant of the applicable
First Offer Space, if any, shall commence on the date set forth
in Landlord's Offer (the "Hitachi First Offer Space
Commencement Date" or the "Bodymasters First Offer Space
Commencement Date") and shall terminate on November 30, 2006,
under and subject to the terms of this Lease (except to the
extent modified by Landlord's Offer), with the same force and
effect as though this Lease had originally provided for the
rental of the Leased Premises and the applicable First Offer
Space, except that the Basic Annual Rent applicable to the
applicable First Offer Space shall be adjusted as set forth
above. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence,
Tenant shall have the right to cancel the lease for the Hitachi
First Offer Space and/or the lease for the Bodymasters First
