commencing on December 1, 1996 ("Commencement Date") and ending on November 30,
2001 ("Termination Date") unless sooner terminated pursuant to any provision
hereof.
3.2 DELAY IN POSSESSION. Notwithstanding said commencement date, if for
any reason Lessor cannot deliver possession of the Premises to Lessee on said
date, Lessor shall not be subject to any liability therefor, nor shall such
failure affect the validity of this lease or the obligations of Lessee hereunder
or extend the term hereof, but in such case, Lessee shall not be obligated to
pay rent until possession of the Premises is tendered to Lessee.
3.3 EARLY POSSESSION. If Lessee occupies the Premises prior to said
commencement date, such occupancy shall be subject to all provisions hereof,
such occupancy shall not advance the termination date, and Lessee shall pay rent
for such period at the initial monthly rates set forth below.
4. RENT.
4.1 BASIC MONTHLY RENT. Lessee shall pay to Lessor, as initial Basic
Monthly Rent for the Premises, monthly payments of $9,642.50 each, plus
applicable sales tax as provided in paragraph 4.3(g), in advance, on the first

Page 1 of 31
so as to escrow Lessee's proportionate share during each calendar year during
the term of this Lease. Lessee's proportionate shall be 5.1%.
(b) Prior to the commencement of the Lease term and of each calendar
year thereafter, Lessor shall use best efforts to provide Lessee a written
estimate of Building Expenses and Lessee's proportionate share thereof for the
ensuing year or portion thereof. If, during the course of any year, it appears
that Lessor's estimate of Building Expenses was insufficient, Lessor may revise
its written estimate. Lessee shall pay the then current estimated amount to
Lessor as additional rent, in equal monthly installments, in advance. Within
one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each calendar year, Lessor shall
furnish to Lessee a statement showing in reasonable detail the actual Building
Expenses incurred by Lessor during such period, and the parties, shall within
thirty (30) days thereafter make any payment or allowance necessary to adjust
Lessee's estimated payments to Lessee's actual proportionate share required by
such annual payment. Any amount due to Lessee shall be credited against
installments next coming due under this paragraph 4.
(c) The term "Building Expenses" as used herein shall include all
costs of operation and maintenance of the Building and appurtenances thereto, as
determined by generally accepted accounting practices consistently applied, and
shall include the following costs by way of illustration but not limitation:

charged to Lessor by contractors for services, materials and supplies furnished
in connection with the operation, maintenance or repair of any part of the
Building or the heating, air conditioning, ventilating, plumbing, electrical,
elevator, and other system in the Building; (10) repairs and replacements to the
Building or any portions thereof made by the Lessor at its expense; (11)
alterations and improvements to the Building made by reason of laws and
requirement of any public authorities or the requirements of insurance bodies;
(12) management fees; (13) the cost of any capital improvements to the building
or of any machinery or equipment installed in the Building which is made or
becomes operational, as the case may be, and which has the effect of reducing
the expenses which otherwise would be included in the Building Expenses, to the
extent of the lessor of: (i) such cost, amortized over the useful life of the
improvements, machinery or equipment (as reasonably estimated by Lessor), or
(ii) the amount of each reduction in the Building Expenses; (14) reasonable
legal, accounting and other professional fees incurred in connection with the
operation, maintenance, and management of the Building; (15) refurbishing,
repainting, recarpeting or redecorating any portion if the Building; (16) taxes,

operation, and maintenance of the Building in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.
The term "Taxes" as referred to in Subparagraph 4.3(d)(p) above, shall
mean the aggregate amount for which the Building, and all land or real property
owned by Lessor underlying the Building or adjacent thereto and used in
connection with the operation of the Building are assessed by the County or any
city or municipal or other governmental body having jurisdiction for the purpose
of imposition of real estate taxes, and any expenses incurred by Lessor in
contesting such taxes or
Page 2 of 31
assessments of the assessed value of the Building. Any special or other
assessment or levy which is imposed upon the Building shall be added to the
amount so determined and shall be deemed to be included within the term "Taxes"
for the purpose hereof. If at any time during this Lease, the methods of
taxation prevailing on the date hereof shall be altered, such additional or
substitute tax, assessment, levy, imposition, or charge, shall be deemed to be
included within the term "Taxes" for the purpose hereof.
Notwithstanding the above, the following are excluded for the
definition of Building Expenses: depreciation (except as provided above);
interest on and amortization of debts; improvements made for new lessees' of the
Building; refinancing costs; the cost of any work or services performed for nay
lessee of the Building, to the extent that such work or service is separately
reimbursed; the cost of any repair or replacement (other than those described
above) which would be required to be capitalized under generally accepted
accounting principles, unless such cost may be, under said principles, amortized
over a period of not more than ten (10) years, in which event a proportionate
part of such costs may be included each year in Building Expenses over the
useful life (as reasonably estimated by Lessor) of such repair and replacement.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, the
Building Expenses which have a direct relationship to occupancy, shall be
determined as though the Building were at an occupancy rate of one hundred
percent (100%).
(d) Annual and other determinations of Building Expenses hereunder
shall be made reasonably and in good faith by Lessor. In the event of any
dispute as to the amount thereof. Lessee shall have the right after reasonable
notice and at reasonable times to inspect Lessor's accounting in any calendar
year. Such inspection will be conducted where Lessor maintains Building Expense
records Lessee shall not have the right to inspect at any time Lessee is in
default of any of the terms of the Lease. Inspection rights shall only pertain
to the Lessee and not any subtenants or assignees. If, after such inspection,
Lessee still disputes the Lessor's determination, certification as to the proper
amount shall be made by Lessor's independent certified public accountant, and
such certification shall be final and conclusive. Lessee agrees to pay the cost
of such certification unless it is determined that Lessor's original
determination was in error to Lessee's disadvantage by more than five percent
(5%). Lessee agrees that the payment of any disputed sum and, if applicable, the
deposit of the estimated cost of certification, shall be conditions precedent to
the initiation of the foregoing procedure.
(e) The Basic Monthly Rent, and other amounts required to be paid by
Lessee hereunder, are sometimes collectively referred to as, and shall
constitute, "rent".
(f) In addition to Base Monthly Rent, as adjusted and with all
additions thereto, Lessee shall pay all sales, use occupancy or other taxes
levied by the State of Florida, or any other governmental jurisdiction having

retain all or any portion of said deposit for the payment of any rent or other
charge in default or for the payment of the any other sum to which Lessor may
become obligated by reason of Lessee's default, or to compensate Lessor for any
loss or damage which Lessor may suffer thereby. If Lessor so uses or applies
all or any portion of said deposit, Lessee shall within ten (10) days after
written demand therefor deposit cash with Lessor in an amount sufficient to
restore the said deposit to the full amount hereinabove stated and Lessee's
failure to do so shall be in a material breach of this Lease. Lessor shall not
be required to keep said deposit separate from its general accounts. If Lessee
performs all of Lessee's obligations hereunder, said deposit, or so much thereof
as has not theretofore been applied by Lessor, shall be returned, without
payment of interest or other increment for its use, to Lessee (or, at Lessor's
option, to the last assignee, if any, of Lessee's interest hereunder) within

paragraph 7.2 or under any other paragraph under this Lease. Lessor may at

demand and payment for reimbursement shall not be Lessor's exclusive remedy.
(b) Lessee shall pay any such premium increases to Lessor within 30
days after receipt by Lessee of a copy of the premium statement or other

Page 6 of 31
Lessee shall, at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of such
policies, furnish Lessor with renewals or "binders" thereof, or Lessor may order

Lessee agrees to name Lessor as an additional insured on all policies necessary
under paragraph 8.1, 8.2, and 8.3.
8.6 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Lessee and Lessor each hereby release and
relieve the other, and waive their entire right of recovery against the other

policies of insurance required hereunder, give notice to the insurance carrier
or carriers that the foregoing mutual waiver of subrogation is contained in this
Lease.
8.7 INDEMNITY. Unless due to Lessor's negligence or willful misconduct,
Lessee shall indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from and against any and all
claims arising from Lessee's use of the premises or from the conduct of Lessee's
business or from any activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by

such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon; and in case any action
of proceeding be brought against Lessor by reason of any such claim, Lessee upon
notice from Lessor shall defend the same at Lessee's expense by counsel
satisfactory to Lessor. Lessee, as a material part of the consideration to

9.4 TOTAL DESTRUCTION. If at any time during the term of this Lease there
is damage, whether or not an Insured Loss, (including destruction required by
any authorized public authority), which falls into the classification of
Premises Total Destruction or Premises Building Total Destruction, this Lease
shall automatically terminate as of the date of such total destruction.
9.5 DAMAGE NEAR END OF TERM. If at any time during the last twelve (12)
months of the initial term of this Lease, or any extension or renewals thereof
there is damage, whether or not an Insured Loss, which falls within the
classification of Premises Partial Damage, Lessor may at Lessor's option cancel
and terminate this Lease as of the date of occurrence of such damage by giving
written notice to Lessee of Lessor's election to do so within 30 days after the
date of occurrence of such damage.
9.6 ABATEMENT OF RENT LESSEE'S REMEDIES.
(a) In the event of damage described in paragraphs 9.2 or 9.3, and
Lessor or Lessee repairs or restores the Premises pursuant to the provision of
this paragraph 9, the rent payable hereunder for the period during which damage,
repair or restoration continues shall be abated in proportion to the degree to
which Lessee's use of the Premises is impaired. Except for abatement of rent,
if any, Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor for any damage suffered by
reason of any such damage, destruction, repair or restoration.
(b) If Lessor shall be obligated to repair or restore the Premises
under the provisions of this Paragraph 9 and shall not commence such repair or
restoration within 90 days after such obligations shall accrue, Lessee may at
Lessee's option cancel and terminate this Lease by giving Lessor written notice
of Lessee's election to do so at any time prior to the commencement of such
repair or restoration. In such event this Lease shall terminate as of the date
of such notice.
Page 8 of 31
9.7 TERMINATION - ADVANCE PAYMENTS. Upon termination of this Lease
pursuant to this Paragraph 9, an equitable adjustment shall be made concerning
advance rent and any advance payments made by Lessee to Lessor. Lessee shall,
in addition, return to Lessee so much of Lessee's security deposit as has not
theretofore been applied by Lessor.
9.8 WAIVER. Lessor and Lessee waive the provisions of any statutes which
relate to termination of leases when leased property is destroyed and agree that
such event shall be governed by the terms of this Lease.
10. REAL PROPERTY TAXES.
10.1 PAYMENT OF TAX. Lessor shall pay as part of Building Expenses, the
real property tax, as defined in paragraph 10.3, applicable to the Premises.
10.2 ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENTS. Notwithstanding paragraph 10.1 hereof,
Lessee shall pay to Lessor upon demand therefor the entirety of any increase in
real property tax if assessed solely by reason of additional improvements placed
upon the Premises by Lessee or at Lessee's request.
10.3 DEFINITION OF "REAL PROPERTY TAX." As used herein, the term "real
property tax" shall include any form of real estate tax or assessment, general,
special, ordinary or extraordinary, and any license fee, commercial rental tax,
improvement bond or bonds, levy or tax (other than inheritance, personal income
or estate taxes) imposed on the Premises by any authority having the direct
power to tax, including any city, state or federal government, or any school,
agricultural, sanitary, fire, street, drainage or other improvement district
thereof, as against any legal equitable interest of Lessor in the Premises or in
the real property of which the Premises are a part, as against Lessor's right to
rent or other income therefrom, and as against Lessor's business of leasing the
Premises. The term "real property tax" shall also include any tax, fee, levy,
assessment or charge (i) in substitution of, partially or totally, any tax, fee,
levy, assessment or charge hereinabove included within the definition of "real
property tax" or (ii) the nature of which was hereinbefore included within the
definition of "real property tax."
10.4 PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES.
(a) Lessee shall pay prior to delinquency all taxes assessed against
and levied upon trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal
property of Lessee contained in the Premises or elsewhere. When possible,
Lessee shall cause said trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other
personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real property of
Lessor.
(b) If any of Lessee's said personal property shall be assessed with
Lessor's real property, Lessee shall pay Lessor the taxes attributable to Lessee
within 10 days after receipt of a written statement setting forth the taxes
applicable to Lessee's property.
11. UTILITIES. Lessee shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power,
telephone and other utilities and services supplied to the Premises, together
with any taxes thereon. If any such services are not separately metered to
Lessee, Lessee shall pay a reasonable proportion to be determined by Lessor of
all charges jointly metered with other premises. All such charges not
separately metered shall be a Building Expense.
12. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
12.1 LESSORS CONSENT REQUIRED. Lessee shall not voluntarily or
involuntarily assign, sublet, mortgage or otherwise encumber all or any portion
of its interest in this Lease or in the Premises without obtaining the prior
written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and
any such attempted assignment, subletting, mortgage or other encumbrance with
such consent shall be null
Page 9 of 31
and void and of no effect. It shall not be unreasonable for Lessor to withhold
its consent in order to exercise its rights set forth in paragraph 12.4.
12.2 NO RELEASE OF LESSEE. No permitted assignment, subletting, mortgage
or other encumbrance of Lessee's interest in this Lease shall relieve Lessee of
its obligation to pay the rent and to perform all of the other obligations to be
performed by Lessee hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Lessor from any other
person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Lessor of any provision of this
Lease or be a consent to any subletting, assignment, mortgage or other
encumbrance. Consent to one sublease, assignment, mortgage other encumbrance
shall not be deemed to constitute consent to any subsequent attempted
subletting, assignment, mortgage or other encumbrance.
12.3 SUBMISSION TO LESSOR. If Lessee desires at any time to assign this
Lease or to sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, it shall first notify
Lessor of its desire to do so and shall submit it in writing to Lessor (i) the
name of the proposed subtenant or assignee; (ii) the nature of the proposed
subtenant's or assignees business to be carried on in the Premises; (iii) the
terms and provisions of the proposed sublease or assignment; and (iv) such
financial information as Lessor may reasonably request concerning the proposed
subtenant or assignee.
21.4 LESSOR'S ELECTION TO RECAPTURE. At any time within thirty (30) days
after Lessor's receipt of the information specified in paragraph 12.3 above,
Lessor may by written notice to Lessee elect (i) to sublease the Premises or the
portion thereof so proposed to be subleased by Lessee, or to take an assignment
of Lessee's leasehold estate hereunder, or such part thereof as shall be
specified in the said notice, on the same terms stated in this Lease and in turn
sublease or assign to the proposed subtenant of assignee on the same terms as
those offered by Lessee to the proposed subtenant or assignee, as the case may
be; or (ii) to terminate this Lease as to the portion (including all) of the
Premises so proposed to be subleased or assigned, with a proportionate abatement
in the rent payable hereunder; provided, however, that if the proposed sublease
will cover less than one-half of the area of the Premises covered by this Lease,
will have a term (including all options to renew or extend the same) of less
than two years, and will terminate more than two years prior to the expiration
date of this Lease, then Lessor shall not be entitled to exercise option (ii)
above, but may exercise option (i). If Lessor does not exercise any option set
forth in this paragraph 12.4 within the said thirty (30) day period, Lessee may
thereafter within ninety (90) days after the expiration of said thirty (30) day
period enter into a valid assignment or sublease of the Premises or portion
thereof, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the information furnished by
Lessee to Lessor pursuant to paragraph 12.3 above, subject, however, in each
instance, to Lessor's consent, which shall not unreasonably be withheld as set
forth in paragraph 12.1 above.
12.5 OTHER PROVISIONS. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by
Lessee or a mutual cancellation hereof shall not work a merger, and shall at the
option of Lessor, terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies or
shall operate as an assignment to Lessor of such subleases or subtenancies. If
Lessee is a corporation, or is an unincorporated association or partnership, the
transfer, assignment or hypothecation of any stock or interest in such
corporation, association or partnership in the aggregate in excess of fifty
percent (50%) shall be deemed an assignment within the meaning of this Paragraph
12. Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor for Lessor's reasonable costs and
attorneys' fees incurred in conjunction with the processing and documentation of
any requested assignment, subletting, transfer, change of ownership or
hypothecation of this Lease or Lessee's interest in and to the Premises.
13. DEFAULT. In the event that Lessee defaults in the payment of any rent due
hereunder or in any other obligations under this Lease, and fails to cure such
default within (5) days after notice thereof, Lessor may accelerate all rent due
hereunder and may also, at its option, proceed with any and all of its remedies
provided by this Lease, including, but not limited to, the removal of the tenant
from the Premises. Lessee shall vacate the Premises within fifteen (15) days of
notice from Lessor. Lessor may take possession of the Premises on said date and
recover all rents and damages accrued or accruing hereunder. If on account of
any breach or default by Lessee in its obligations under this lease, it shall
Page 10 of 31
become necessary for Lessor to employ legal services to enforce or defend
Lessor's rights or remedies hereunder, Lessee agrees to pay any reasonable
attorneys' fees thus incurred by Lessor. If Lessee files a petition in
bankruptcy or be adjudicated a bankrupt, or makes an assignment for the benefit
of creditors or takes advantage of any insolvency act, Lessor may, at its option
at any time thereafter, terminate this Lease upon giving Lessee fifteen (15)
days notice of Lessor's intention to do so, and this Lease shall then expire and
end on that date fixed in such notice as if said date were the date originally
fixed in this Lease for the expiration hereof. If the Premises shall be vacated
or abandoned, or in the event of a default by Lessee, for any cause whatsoever,
Lessee shall, nevertheless, remain and continue liable to Lessor in a sum equal
to all fixed and additional rent herein reserved for the balance of the term
herein originally granted; and Lessor may re-enter the Premises using such
reasonable force for that purpose as may be necessary without being liable to
any prosecution for said re-entry or the use of such force, and Lessor may
repair or alter the Premises in such manner as Lessor may deem necessary or
advisable, or relet the Premises or any or all parts thereof for the whole or
any part of the remainder of the original term hereof or for a longer period, in
Lessor's name, or as the agent of Lessee, and out of any rent so collected or
received. Lessor shall first pay to itself the expense and cost of retaking,
repossessing, repairing, or altering the Premises (including court costs and
legal fees) and the expense of removing all persons and property therefrom, and,
second, pay to itself any cost or expense sustained in securing any new tenant
or tenants, and, third, pay to itself any balance remaining on account of the
liability of Lessee to Lessor for the sum equal to the rents reserved herein and
then unpaid by Lessee for the remainder of the term originally herein demised.
Any entry or re-entry by Lessor, whether had or taken under summary proceedings
or otherwise shall not absolve or discharge Lessee from liability hereunder.
Should any rent so collected by Lessor after the payments aforesaid be
insufficient to pay to Lessor a sum equal to all fixed and additional rent
herein reserved, the balance or deficiency shall be paid by Lessee and Lessee
shall be and remain liable for any such deficiency.
Suit or suits for the recovery of any such deficiency or damages, or for a
sum equal to any installment or installments of rent or additional rent payable
hereunder, may be brought by Lessor from time to time at Lessor's election.
In the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Lessee of any of the
terms, covenants or conditions hereof, Lessor shall have the right of injunction
to restrain the same and the right to invoke any removal allowed by law or in
equity, as if specific remedies, indemnify or reimbursement where not herein
provided for.
The rights and remedies given to Lessor in this Lease are distinct,
separate and cumulative remedies and no one of them, whether or not exercised by
Lessor, shall be deemed to be in exclusion of any of the others herein by law or
equity provided.
The receipt of rent by Lessor with knowledge of any breach of this Lease by
Lessee or of any default on the part of Lessee in the observance or performance
of any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Lease, shall not be deemed
to be a waiver of any provision of this Lease.
No receipt of monies by Lessor from Lessee shall reinstate, continue or
extend the term hereof, or affect any notice theretofore given to Lessee, or
operate as a waiver of the right of Lessor to enforce the payment of fixed or
additional rent or other charges then due or thereafter falling due or operate
as a waiver of the right of Lessor to recover possession of the premises by
proper suit, action, proceedings or remedy; it being agreed that, after the
service of notice of default, and the expiration of the time therein specified,
if the default has not been cured in the meantime, or after the commencement of
suit, action or summary proceedings or of any other remedy, or after a final
order, warrant or judgment for the possession of the Premises, Lessor may
demand, receive, and collect any monies then due, or thereafter becoming due,
without in any manner affecting such notice, proceeding, suit, action, order,
warrant or judgment and any and all such monies so collected shall be deemed to
be payments on account for the
Page 11 of 31
use and occupation of the Premises, or at the election of Lessor, on account of
Lessee's liability hereunder. Acceptance of the keys to the premises, or any
similar act, by Lessor, or any agent or employee, during the term hereof, shall
not be deemed to be an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises unless Lessor
shall consent thereto in writing.
13.3 DEFAULT BY LESSOR. Lessor shall not be in default unless Lessor
fails to perform obligations required of Lessor within a reasonable time, but in
no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by Lessee to Lessor
and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises
whose name and address shall have theretofore been furnished to Lessee in
writing, specifying wherein Lessor has failed to perform such obligation,
provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor's obligation is such that more
than thirty (30) days are required for performance then Lessor shall not be in
default if Lessor commences performance within such 30-day period and thereafter
diligently prosecutes the same to completion.
13.4 LATE CHARGES. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee
to Lessor of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs
not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely
difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing
and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Lessor by the
terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any
installment of rent or any other sum due from Lessee shall not be received by
Lessor or Lessor's designee within five (5) days after such amount shall be due,
then, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a
late charge equal to 6% of such overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that
such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor
will incur by reason of late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of such late charge
by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee's default with respect
to such overdue amount, nor prevent Lessor from exercising any of the other
rights and remedies granted hereunder. In the event that a late charge is
payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for three (3) consecutive
installments of rent, then rent shall automatically become due and payable
quarterly in advance, rather than monthly, notwithstanding paragraph 4 or any
other provision of this Lease to the contrary.
14. CONDEMNATION. If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the
power of eminent domain, or sold under the threat of the exercise of said power
(all of which are herein called "condemnation"), this lease shall terminate as
to the part so taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or
possession, whichever first occurs. If more than 10% of the floor area of the
Premises is taken by condemnation, Lessee may, at Lessee's option, to be
exercised in writing only within ten (10) days after Lessor shall have given
Lessee written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within
ten (10) days after the condemning authority shall have taken possession)
terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such
possession. If Lessee does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the
foregoing, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of
the Premises remaining, except that the rent shall be reduced in the proportion
that the floor area taken bears to the total floor area of the Premises. Any
award for the taking of all or any part of the Premises under the power of
eminent domain or any payment made under threat of the exercise of such power
shall be the property of Lessor, whether such award shall be made as
compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or for the taking of the
fee, or as severance damages; provided, however, that Lessee shall be entitled
to any award for loss of or damage to Lessee's trade fixtures and removable
personal property. In the event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of
such condemnation, Lessor shall to the extent of severance damages received by
Lessor in connection with such condemnation, repair any damage to the Premises
caused by such condemnation except to the extent that Lessee has been reimbursed
therefor by the condemning authority. Lessee shall pay any amount in excess of
such severance damages required to complete such repair.
Page 12 of 31
15. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.
(a) Lessee shall at any time upon not less than ten (10) days prior written
notice from Lessor execute, acknowledge and deliver to Lessor a statement in
writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and
effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying
that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and the date to
which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (ii)
acknowledging that there are not, to Lessee's knowledge, any uncured defaults on
the part of Lessor hereunder, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed.
Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser
or encumbrancer of the Premises.
(b) At Lessor's option, Lessee's failure to deliver such statement within
such time shall be a material breach of this Lease or shall be conclusive upon
Lessee (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect without modification
except as may be represented by Lessor, (ii) that there are no uncured defaults
in Lessor's performance, and (iii) that not more than one month's rent has been
paid in advance or such failure may be considered by Lessor as a default by
Lessee under this Lease.
(c) If Lessor desires to finance, refinance, or sell the Premises, or any
part thereof, Lessee hereby agrees to deliver to any lender or purchaser
designated by Lessor such financial statement of Lessee as may be reasonably
required by such lender or purchaser. Such statements shall include the past
three years' financial statements of Lessee. All such financial statements
shall be received by Lessor and such lender or purchaser in confidence and shall
be used only for the purposes herein set forth.
16. LESSOR'S LIABILITY. The term "Lessor" as used herein shall mean only the
owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title or a Lessee's interest
in a ground lease of the Premises, and except as expressly provided in paragraph
15, in the event of any transfer of such title or interest. Lessor herein names
(and in case of any subsequent transfers than the grantor) shall be relieved
from and after the date of such transfer of all liability as respects to
Lessor's obligations thereafter to be performed, provided that any funds in the
hands of Lessor or the then grantor at the time of such transfer, in which
Lessee has an interest, shall be delivered to the grantee. The obligation
contained in this Lease to be performed by Lessor shall, subject to the
aforesaid, be binding on Lessor's successor and assigns, only during their
respective periods of ownership.
17. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease as determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall in no way effect the validity of any
other provision hereof.
18. INTEREST ON PAST-DUE OBLIGATIONS. Except as expressly herein provided, any
amount due to Lessor not paid when due shall bear interest at the maximum rate
then allowable by law from the date due. Payment of such interest shall not
excuse or cure any default by Lessee under this Lease, provided, however, that
interest shall not be payable on late charges incurred by Lessee nor on any
amounts upon which late charges are paid by Lessee.
19. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence.
20. ADDITIONAL RENT. Any monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the
terms of this Lease shall be deemed to be rent.
21. INCORPORATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS; AMENDMENTS. This Lease contains all
agreements of the parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein. No prior
agreement or understanding pertaining to such matter shall be effective. This
Lease shall be modified in writing only, signed by the parties in interest at
the time of the modification. Except as otherwise stated in this Lease, Lessee
hereby acknowledges that neither Lessor nor any employees or agents of any of
Lessor has made any oral or written warranties or representations to Lessee
relative to the condition or use by Lessee of said Premises
Page 13 of 31
and Lessee acknowledges that Lessee assumes all responsibility regarding the
Occupational Safety Health Act (OSHA), the legal use and adaptability of the
Premises and the compliance thereof with all applicable laws and regulations in
effect during the term of this Lease except as otherwise specifically stated in
this Lease.
22. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be
in writing and may be given by personal delivery or by certified mail, and if
given personally or by mail shall be deemed sufficiently given if addressed to
Lessee or to Lessor at the address noted below the signature of the respective
parties as the case may be. Either party may by notice to the other specify a
different address for notice purposes accept that upon Lessee's taking
possession of the Premises the Premises shall constitute Lessee's address for
notice purposes. A copy of all notices required or permitted to be given to
Lessor hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or parties at
such addresses as Lessor may from time to time hereafter designate by notice to
Lessee.
23. WAIVERS. No waiver by Lessor of any provision hereof shall be deemed a
waiver of any provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by Lessee of the same
or any other provision. Lessor's consent to, or approval of any act, shall not
be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor's consent to or approval
of any subsequent act by Lessee. The acceptance of rent hereunder by Lessor
shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach by Lessee of any provisions
hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular rent so accepted,
regardless of Lessor's acknowledge of such preceding breach at the time of
acceptance of such rent.
24. RECORDING. Lessee shall, upon request of Lessor, execute, acknowledge and
deliver to Lessor a "short form" memorandum of this Lease for recording
purposes. Unless requested by Lessor, neither this Lease nor a "short form"
hereof shall be recorded. If Lease or "short form" is recorded, other than, by
the request of Lessor, such action would be considered a material default of the
Lease.
25. HOLDING OVER. If Lessee, with Lessor's consent, remains in possession of
the Premises or any part thereof after the expiration of the term hereof, such
occupancy shall be a tenancy at sufferance. Except as set forth in this
paragraph to the contrary, all the provisions of this Lease pertaining to the
obligations of Lessee shall apply to the Tenant during its occupancy at
sufferance. All options and rights of first refusal, if any, granted to Lessee
under the terms of this Lease shall be deemed terminated and be of no further
effect during said tenancy at sufferance, Base Monthly Rent during the tenancy
at sufferance shall be one and one-half times the Base Monthly Rent for the last
month during which the Lease was in effect. The Tenant shall vacate the
Premises upon written demand by Lessor.
26. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed
exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at
law or in equity.
27. COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. Each provision of this Lease performable by
Lessee shall be deemed both a covenant and a condition.
28. BINDING EFFECT; CHOICE OF LAW. Subject to any provisions hereof
restricting assignment or subletting by Lessee and subject to the provisions of
Paragraph 16, this Lease shall bind the parties, their personal representatives,
successors and assigns. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State
wherein the Premises are located, in the value of Palm Beach County.
29. SUBORDINATION.
(a) This Lease, at Lessor's option, shall be subordinate to any ground
lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or any other hypothecation or security now or
hereafter placed upon the real property of which the Premises are a part and to
any and all advances made on the security thereof and to all renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof.
Notwithstanding such
Page 14 of 31
subordination, Lessee's right to quiet possession of the Premises, as set forth
in Section 37 of this Lease, shall not be disturbed if Lessee is not in default
and so long as Lessee shall pay the rent and observe and perform all of the
provisions of this Lease, unless this Lease is otherwise terminated pursuant to
its terms. If any mortgagee, trustee or ground lessor shall elect to have this
Lease subordinate to the lien of its mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease,
and shall give written notice thereof to Lessee, this Lease shall be deemed
subordinate to such mortgage, deed of trust, or ground lease, whether this Lease
is dated prior or subsequent to the date of said mortgage, deed of trust or
ground lease or the date of recording thereof.
(b) Lessee agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate an
attornment, a subordination or to make this Lease subordinate to the lien of any
mortgage deed of trust or ground lease, as the case may be. Lessee's failure to
execute such documents within 10 days after written demand shall constitute a
material default by Lessee hereunder, or, at Lessor's option, Lessor shall
execute such documents on behalf of Lessee as Lessee's attorney-in-fact. Lessee
does hereby make, constitute and irrevocably appoint Lessor as Lessee's
attorney-in-fact and in Lessee's name, place and stead, to execute such
documents in accordance with this paragraph 29(b).
30. ATTORNEY'S FEES. If either party brings an action to enforce the terms
hereof or declare rights hereunder, the prevailing party in any such action, on
trial or appeal, shall be entitled to his reasonable attorney's fees to be paid
by the losing party as fixed by the court.
31. LESSOR'S ACCESS. Lessor and Lessor's agents shall have the right to enter
the Premises at reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the same, showing
the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or lessees, and making such
alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises or to the
building of which they are a part as Lessor may deem necessary or desirable.
Lessor may at any time place on or about the Premises any ordinary "For Sale"
signs and Lessor may at any time during the last 120 days of the term hereof
place on or about the Premises any ordinary "For Lease" signs, all without
rebate of rent or liability to Lessee.
32. AUCTIONS. Lessee shall not conduct, nor permit to be conducted, either
voluntarily or involuntarily, any auction upon the Premises without first having
obtained Lessor's prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Lease, Lessor shall not be obligated to exercise any standard
of reasonableness in determining whether to grant such consent.
33. SIGNS. Lessee shall not place any sign upon the Premises. The Lessee
shall be listed in the Building Directory and shall utilize the standard
building sign at the designated area at or near the entry to its premises. All
signs must be approved by Lessor.
34. MERGER. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, or a
mutual cancellation thereof or a termination by Lessor shall not work a merger,
and shall, at the option of Lessor, terminate all or any existing subtenancies
or may, at the option of Lessor, operate as an assignment to Lessor of any or
all of such subtenancies.
35. CONSENTS. Except for paragraph 32 hereof, wherever in this Lease the
consent of one party is required to an act of the other party, such consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld.
36. GUARANTOR. In the event that there is a guarantor of this Lease, said
guarantor shall have the same obligations as Lessee under this Lease.
37. QUIET POSSESSION. Upon Lessee paying the rent for the Premises and
observing and performing all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on
Lessee's part to be observed and performed hereunder. Lessee shall have quiet
possession of the Premises for the entire term hereof subject to all of the
provisions of this Lease. The individuals executing this Lease on behalf of
Lessor represent and warrant
Page 15 of 31
to Lessee that they are fully authorized and legally capable of executing this
Lease on behalf of Lessor and that such execution is binding upon all parties
holding an ownership interest in the Premises.
38. RULES AND REGULATIONS. Lessee agrees that it will abide by, keep and
observe all reasonable rules and regulations which Lessor may make from time to
time for the management, safety, care, and cleanliness of the Building and
grounds, the parking of vehicles and the preservation of good order therein as
well as for the convenience of other occupants and tenants of the Building. The
violations of any such rules and regulations shall be deemed a material breach
of this Lease by Lessee.
39. SECURITY MEASURES. Lessee assumes all responsibility for the protection of
Lessee, its agents and invitees from acts of third parties.
40. EASEMENTS. Lessor reserves to itself the right, from time to time, to
grant such easements, rights and dedications that Lessor deems necessary or
desirable, and to cause the recordation of Parcel Maps and restrictions, so long
as such easements, rights, dedications, maps and restrictions do not
unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Lessee. Lessee shall
sign any of the aforementioned documents upon request of Lessor and failure to
do so shall constitute a material breach of this Lease.
41. AUTHORITY. If Lessee is a corporation, trust, or general or limited
partnership, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of such entity
represents and warrants that he or she is duly authorized to execute and deliver
this Lease on behalf of said entity. If Lessee is a corporation, trust or
partnership, Lessee shall, within thirty (30) days after execution of this
Lease, deliver to Lessor evidence of such authority satisfactory to Lessor.
LESSOR AND LESSEE HAVE CAREFULLY READ AND REVIEWED THIS LEASE AND EACH TERM AND

processors, photocopiers, kitchen appliances and other small office
equipment) using 110 volt, 20 AMP circuits, except as provided in

(which shall not be unreasonably withheld) connect any additional
items to
Page 19 of 31

thereof shall be paid by Lessee upon Lessor's demand.
C. If Lessee uses any of the services or electric current enumerated in
this Paragraph in an amount or for a period in excess of that provided
for herein, then Lessor reserves the right to charge Lessee as
additional rent a reasonable sum as reimbursement for the direct cost
of such added services. In the event of disagreement as to
reasonableness of such charge, the opinion of the appropriate local
utility company or a local independent professional engineer shall
prevail.
D. Except for Lessor's negligence or willful misconduct, Lessor shall in
no way be liable for cessation of any of the above services caused by
strike, accident or breakdown, nor shall Lessor be liable for damages
from the stopping of elevators or elevator service, or any of the
fixtures or equipment in Building being out of repair, or for injury
to person or property, caused by any defects in the electrical
equipment, heating, ventilating and air conditioning system, elevators
or water apparatus, or for any damages arising out of failure to
furnish the services enumerated in this Paragraph 7.
E. Notwithstanding anything in the contrary in subparagraph 4.3 of the
Lease Agreement, Lessor shall have the right, at any time, to install
an electrical metering device to monitor electrical consumption on the
Premises. Lessor's right to install a metering device pursuant to
this subparagraph 7(E) shall be in addition to Lessor's right to
install such device pursuant to subparagraph 7(B) of this Lease.
F. It is understood and agreed that any and all costs and expenses for
which Lessor bills Lessee and which Lessee is liable to pay to Lessor
under the provisions of this Paragraph 7 shall be deemed to be
