(1) REAL ESTATE TAXES: Lessee agrees to pay its proportionate share
of the real estate taxes during the term of this Lease and any renewal or
extension thereof, including any period during which Lessee shall transact
business in the Demised Premises prior to the commencement of the term of this
Lease. For the purposes of this Article, the term "Real Estate Taxes" shall
include all real estate taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges, betterment
assessments, sales and/or rent taxes, special assessments, other governmental
impositions and charges of every kind and nature whatsoever, extraordinary as
well as ordinary, foreseen and unforeseen and each and every installment thereof
which shall or may, during the Lease term, be levied, assessed, imposed, become

or possession of or grow due or payable out of, or for, the XXXXXX X. XXXXXXXXX,
TRUSTEE or any part thereof, and all costs incurred by Lessor in contesting,
litigating or negotiating the same with the governmental authority. Lessee's
proportionate share shall be computed by multiplying the total amount of the

gross leasable areas of the Demised Premises and the denominator of which is the
gross leasable area of all building or portion thereof (including the Demised
Premises) occupied by Lessee in the XXXXXX X. XXXXXXXXX, TRUSTEE determined as
of the Commencement Date of the Lease and thereafter as of the beginning of the
calendar year in which such taxes are paid. Lessee hereby waives any right it
may have by statute or otherwise to protect real estate taxes to any public
taxing authority. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to include as a
tax which shall be the basis of real estate taxes, any inheritance, estate,
succession, transfer, gift, franchise, corporation, income or profit tax or
capital levy that is or may be imposed upon Lessor; provided, however, that if
any time after the date hereof, the methods of taxation shall be altered so that
in lieu of or as a substitute for the whole or any part of the taxes now levied,
assessed or imposed (a) a tax on the rents receive3d from such real estate, or
(b) a license fee measured by the rents receivable by Lessor which is otherwise
measured by or based in whole or in part upon the XXXXXX X. XXXXXXXXX, TRUSTEE
or any portion thereof, or (c) an income or franchise tax, then the same shall
be included in the computation of real estate taxes hereunder, computed as if
the amount of such tax or fee so payable were that due if the XXXXXX X.
XXXXXXXXX, TRUSTEE were the only property of Lessor subject thereto.
(A) Lessee agrees to pay to the Lessor the sum of $11,694.97
Dollars per annum payable in monthly installments of $974.58 on the first day of
each calendar month as its estimated payment of Real Estate taxes until the
XXXXXX X. XXXXXXXXX, TRUSTEE is assessed as substantially completed. For each
year thereafter Lessee shall pay Lessor monthly one-twelfth (1/12) of the amount
of Lessee's proportionate tax liability based on the actual taxes for the
preceding calendar year. Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing of the actual
amount due by Lessee for the preceding calendar year when determined. Any amount
paid by Lessee which exceeds the true amount due shall be credits on the next
succeeding payment due pursuant to this Section. If the Lessee has paid less
than the true amount due, Lessee shall pay the difference within ten (10) days
of receipt of notice from Lessor. If the term of this Lease shall begin or end
other than on the first or last day of a calendar year, these charges shall be
billed and adjusted on the basis of such fraction of a calendar year. Should the
taxing authorities include in such real estate taxes, machinery, equipment,
fixtures, inventory or other personal property or assets of the Lessee, then
Lessee shall also pay its proportionate share of the entire real estate taxes
for such items.
(B) Lessee shall pay to Lessor, together with each installment of
Rent, all sales or rent taxes from time to time imposed in connection with rents
paid by Lessee under this Lease.
