As Minimum Rental for the Premises, Tenant covenants and agrees to pay to Landlord an ANNUAL RENTAL (as set forth on the FACE PAGE), which shall be payable in MONTHLY INSTALLMENTS (as set forth on the FACE PAGE).

Should Tenant fail to pay when due any installment of rent or any other sum payable to Landlord under the terms of this Lease within five (5) days of the due date, then interest shall accrue from and after the date on which any such sum shall be due and payable, and such interest together with a late charge of One Hundred Fifty and NO/100—Dollars ($150.00) to cover the extra expense involved in handling such delinquency shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord at the time of payment of the delinquent sum.

9. TAXES.
A. Against the Premises. Tenant shall pay all Real Estate Taxes (as hereinafter defined) levied or assessed with respect to the Premises, including all improvements thereon, during each calendar year in which this Lease is in effect; provided, however, for the first year in which this Lease is in effect, such taxes on the land herein leased, but not on any improvements thereon, shall be prorated between Landlord and Tenant using January 1 as a basis; and for the last year in which this Lease is in effect, such taxes, on both the land and improvements, shall be prorated between Landlord and Tenant using January 1 as a basis. As used herein, “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean all taxes, assessments (special or otherwise), water and sewer rents and other governmental levies and charges of any and every kind, nature and sort whatsoever, ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, and substitutes therefor including all taxes whatsoever and the costs to Landlord of any appeals of any taxes or assessments (except any inheritance, estate, succession, transfer or gift tax imposed on Landlord or any income tax specifically payable by Landlord as a separate tax-paying entity without regard to Landlord’s income source as arising from or out of this Lease,) and any of the lease taxes referred to in Section 2.1(d) above which shall be paid by Tenant in accordance-with said Section) attributable in any manner to this Lease, the Premises, or the rents receivable therefrom, or any part thereof or any use thereof or any facility located therein or used in conjunction therewith including land intended for future development, or any charge or other payment required to be paid to any governmental authority relating to the Premises, whether or not any of the foregoing shall be a so-called “real estate tax.” Tenant shall pay all of said taxes at least thirty (30) days prior to the date same becomes past due and, in any event, within time to prevent any judgment, sale or forfeiture of the Premises therefor or to prevent any penalty or cost being charged against the Premises or any part thereof or against Landlord or Tenant by reason of any default in such payments.

Tenant’s estimated monthly payment for the first Lease Year of the term of this Lease shall be as set forth on the FACE PAGE.
Tenant shall not, however, be required to pay, discharge or remove any tax, tax lien, or other imposition or charge upon or against the Premises so long as Tenant shall in good faith contest the validity or amount of such tax, lien, or charge by appropriate legal proceedings which shall operate to prevent the collection of the tax assessment, lien or charge so contested or the sale of the Premises to satisfy the same.

Tenant’s share thereof shall be determined by multiplying the total amount of the Real Estate Taxes assessed against the land comprising the related Common Area, and all improvements on the related Common Area, by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the floor area of Tenant’s Building, including canopy space, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of square feet of Floor Area in all buildings then leased or held for lease in the Shopping Center. Taxes for the year in which this Lease begins, and ends, shall be prorated as set forth in paragraph A above.
Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain from the taxing authorities a separate tax assessment for the related Common Area and improvements thereon. If Landlord shall be unable to obtain such separate assessments, Landlord shall make an equitable determination of the amount of the tax attributable to the related Common Area and the improvements thereon and shall advise Tenant as to such amount.
Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord its share of the real estate taxes against the related Common Area and improvements thereon within thirty (30) days after being notified by Landlord of the amount of Tenant’s share of said tax.
10. USE OF PREMISES. The Premises are to be used and occupied by Tenant solely for the PERMITTED USE (Landlord represents the Premises are zoned CU-SC by the City of Greensboro and that such classification allows the Permitted Use as defined and set forth on the FACE PAGE) and for no other purpose whatsoever.

Landlord shall have the right from time to time to reasonably designate, relocate and limit the use of particular areas or portions of the Common Area, to remove area from the Common Area and to construct or permit the construction of additional buildings thereon, to add additional area to the Common Area, and to establish, promulgate and enforce such reasonable rules and regulations concerning the Common Area as it may deem necessary or advisable for the proper and efficient management, operation, maintenance and use thereof, and Tenant shall comply with the same. Landlord shall have the right to make changes in the Common Area or any part thereof whenever, in its opinion, it shall be desirable and for the best interest of the Shopping Center, including, without limitation, the changes in the location and relocation of driveways, entrances, exits, vehicular parking spaces, the direction and flow of traffic, the setting apart of prohibited areas, the exclusion of employee parking therefrom as Landlord may deem necessary and advisable for the proper and efficient operation and maintenance of the Common Area, and removing area from the Common Area.

17. PAYMENT OF RELATED COMMON AREA MAINTENANCE COST BY TENANT. Tenant shall pay to Landlord in addition to all other payments to be made by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease, Tenant’s share of the cost of maintaining and operating the related Common Area. Tenant’s share is to be determined and paid in the manner hereinafter set forth. The term “cost of maintaining and operating the related Common Area” shall mean the actual gross costs and expenses of every kind incurred by Landlord by reason of Landlord’s ownership or operation of the related Common Area, plus a charge of fifteen percent (15%) of such gross costs and expenses, which latter amount shall represent the cost of Landlord’s administering the related Common Area. Such costs and expenses shall include all sums expended by Landlord concerning the related Common Area for the maintenance and operation thereof and repairs thereto, and shall include but not be limited to, resurfacing, repainting, restriping, cleaning, sweeping, and janitorial services, the purchase, construction and maintenance of trash and refuse receptacles, replanting and relandscaping, directional signs and other markers, patrol of the related Common Area, and supervision of traffic direction when required, car stops, lighting and other utilities including storm water retention systems, ponds and facilities wherever located, depreciation allowance on improvement therein and machinery and equipment used in connection therewith, personal property taxes on the related Common Area, salaries, insurance costs, fringe benefits on employees at the level of property manager and below performing the services herein described, adequate public liability and property damage insurance thereon in an amount to be determined by Landlord, and all other things necessary in Landlord’s judgment for the operation and maintenance of the related Common Area in a state of good and sanitary order, condition and repair. The cost of the original construction, installation or decoration of the related Common Area shall not be a part of the cost of maintenance and operation of the related Common Area.
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in advance, on the first day of each and every month during the term of this Lease, an amount which Landlord shall estimate is Tenant’s share of the “costs of maintaining and operating the related Common Area.” Landlord shall notify Tenant, in writing, of Tenant’s estimated monthly payment. In the event the term hereof shall commence on a date other than the first day of a month, Tenant also shall make a prorated payment on the commencement date of the term for such part of the first month. Tenant’s estimated monthly payment for the first Lease Year of the term of this Lease shall be as set forth on the FACE PAGE.
Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of any calendar year during which any portion of the term of this Lease occurs, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written statement showing the total cost of maintaining and operating the related Common Area for the calendar year ending and Tenant’s share of such expenses. Tenant’s share thereof shall be determined by multiplying the total amount of such costs of maintaining and operating the related Common Area by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the floor area of Tenant’s Building, including canopy space, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of square feet of floor area in all buildings then leased or held for lease in the Shopping Center. Notwithstanding the above, in the event any tenant or occupant in the Shopping Center directly pays any portion of the cost of maintaining the related Common Facilities on its parcel or Premises (e.g. refuse removal, parking lot lighting, insurance, etc.) then the square footage of the floor area of the Premises leased to or occupied by such tenant or occupant shall be excluded in determining Tenant’s share of such costs. The square footage of the Premises leased to such tenant or occupant shall be excluded in determining Tenant’s share only with respect to the costs paid directly by such tenant. If during any calendar year for which the charges are made the number of days of the term hereof expiring is less than the number of days during which such related Common Area was maintained and operated by Landlord, Tenant’s share shall be determined by multiplying that amount which Tenant would otherwise have been liable to pay under the foregoing provisions thereof by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days of the term hereof expiring during such year, and the denominator of which shall be the number of days such related Common Area was maintained and operated by Landlord during such year. If the monthly amount paid by Tenant for such calendar year under the foregoing provisions shall exceed Tenant’s proportionate share of such annual costs, Landlord shall refund such excess to Tenant, or Landlord may, if it shall so elect, apply such excess as a credit
| 8 |
|
NGOP - Bank of Oak Ridge 9 13 04
against any existing or future liability of Tenant to Landlord. If the monthly amount paid by Tenant for such calendar year shall be less than Tenant’s proportionate share of such annual cost, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such deficiency within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such statement from Landlord.
Landlord shall keep and maintain reasonable records of all expenses for the maintenance and operation of the Common Facilities. Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense upon not less than fourteen (14) days prior written notice, to inspect Landlord’s books and records with respect to the maintenance and operation of the Common Facilities, by appointment at Landlord’s home office during normal business hours no more than once each year, provided Tenant delivers notice of such intent to inspect within one (1) year after the date Landlord delivers to Tenant the annual statement of expenses for such year. In the event Tenant fails to deliver written notice of intent to inspect within such one (1) year period or Tenant fails to inspect Landlord’s books and records within three (3) months after the date of such notice of intent to inspect, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived Tenant’s right to inspect as herein set forth and Landlord’s annual statement of such expenses as submitted to Tenant shall be conclusively deemed to have been consistent with the terms and provisions of this Lease.
18. ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS. Tenant shall have the right during the term of this Lease, to make such alterations, improvements or changes in the Premises as it shall deem necessary or beneficial in the operation of Tenant’s business; provided that no alterations, improvements or changes to the exterior of the Building or to the structural portion of the Building or which are substantial alterations, improvements, or changes shall be made without the written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
19. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. (a) Tenant may not assign this Lease, or any interest therein, and may not sublet the said Premises, or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto, or suffer any other person (the agents, employees and servants of Tenant excepted) to occupy or use the Premises, or any portion thereof, without the written consent of Landlord first had and obtained, and a consent to one assignment, subletting, occupation or use by any other person, shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation or use by another person. Landlord may withhold its consent arbitrarily for any sublease of less than the entire Premises. Any such assignment or subletting without such consent shall be void, and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate this Lease. This Lease shall not, nor shall any interest therein, be assignable, as to the interest of Tenant, by operation of law, without the written consent of Landlord.
(b) The consent of Landlord required under Section 13.1 (a) above may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided, should Landlord withhold its consent for any of the following reasons, which list is not exclusive, such withholding shall be deemed to be reasonable:
(i) Any use which would be a violation of an exclusive use or other prohibited or restricted use pursuant to the terms of any other agreement between Landlord and any other tenant or occupant of the Shopping Center in effect as of such date; provided, however, nothing in this Section 19(b)(i) shall prevent the use of the Premises as permitted in the Face Page;
(ii) Incompatibility of the proposed use with Landlord’s desired tenant mix within the Shopping Center;
(iii) Financial inadequacy of the proposed sublessee or assignee;
(iv) Any non-retail use or a retail use which is not commonly found in similar first class shopping centers;
(v) Wherein the percentage rent clause herein is not suitable for the proposed new assignee or sublessee in that either-(x) their volume could reasonably be expected to be less than that of Tenant hereunder or-(y)-the -proposed-use is the type of use which generally pays percentage rent;

|
NGOP - Bank of Oak Ridge 9 13 04
(vi) The proposed transferee does not have at least five (5) years recent experience successfully operating the same or substantially similar type business as the proposed use; and

(i) Each and every covenant, condition, or obligation imposed upon Tenant by this Lease and each and every right, remedy, or benefit afforded Landlord by this Lease shall not be impaired or diminished as a result of such assignment or sublease;
(ii) Tenant shall assign to Landlord any- and all consideration paid directly or indirectly for the assignment by Tenant to the assignee of Tenant’s leasehold interest or any and all sub rentals payable by subtenants which are in excess of the •Minimum Rent provided herein (computed on a square foot basis);
(iii) If Tenant is a corporation which is not deemed a public 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 twenty-five percent (25%) shall be deemed an assignment within this Paragraph;
(iv) Tenant shall reimburse Landlord as additional rent for Landlord’s reasonable costs and attorney’s fees incurred in conjunction with the processing and documentation of any such requested assignment, subletting, transfer, change of ownership or hypothecation of this Lease or Tenant’s interest in and to the Premises;
(V) Landlord may condition the approval of any assignment or subletting as specified herein upon an increase-in the minimum guaranteed rental-payable by Tenant or Tenant’s successor in interest (not to exceed the amount of minimum guaranteed rental Landlord is receiving for new leases of comparable space in the Shopping Center) and/or in an increase in the Security Deposit required to be deposited by Tenant or Tenant’s successor in interest;
(vi) No subletting or assignment, even with the consent of Landlord, shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Landlord from any person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or to be a consent to any assignment or subletting.
(vii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, at Landlord’s election, the following provisions shall be in effect:
(a) In the event that at any time or from time to time during the term of this Lease, Tenant desires to assign or sublet all or part of the Premises in a transaction where Landlord’s consent is required under the terms of this Section 13.1 (a), Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing (hereinafter referred to as a “First Transfer Notice”) of Tenant’s desire to so assign or sublet and shall give Landlord the right to terminate this Lease and relieve Tenant of its obligations hereunder in lieu of granting or withholding Landlord’s consent to such assignment or sublease. Such right shall be exercisable by Landlord in writing for a period commencing on the date Landlord receives the First Transfer Notice and ending on the date Tenant gives Landlord the Second Transfer Notice described in subparagraph (b) of this Section 13.1 19(c)(vii).
(b) In the event that Tenant has given Landlord a First Transfer Notice and Landlord has failed to terminate the Lease pursuant to subparagraph (a) of this Section 13.1 19(c)(vii), at such time as Tenant has obtained a proposal for an assignment of this Lease or sublease of the Premises in a transaction where Landlord’s consent is required under the provisions of this Article XIII 19, Tenant

shall notify Landlord in writing (hereinafter referred to as a “Second Transfer Notice”) of the terms of the proposed assignment or sublease and shall give Landlord the right to terminate this Lease and relieve Tenant of its obligations hereunder in lieu of granting or withholding Landlord’s consent to such assignment or sublease. Such option shall be exercisable by Landlord in writing for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of the Second Transfer Notice.
(c) If Landlord fails to exercise its right of termination of this Lease under subparagraph (a) hereinabove and Tenant fails to give Landlord a Second Transfer Notice within sixty (60) days after giving the First Transfer Notice, or if Landlord fails to exercise its right of termination of this Lease under subparagraph (b) hereinabove and Tenant fails to complete negotiations for a valid and bona fide assignment to or sublease with a third party within sixty (60) days after giving a Second Transfer Notice in accordance with the terms of the Second Transfer Notice, Tenant shall again comply with all the conditions of this Section 13.1 19(c)(vii), as if the First Transfer Notice and Second Transfer Notice had been not given and received.
(d) In the event Landlord does not exercise its rights under subparagraphs (a) and of this Section 13.1 19(c)(vii) and Tenant completes negotiations for an assignment or sublease with a third party within the sixty (60) day period referred to in subparagraph (c) of this Section 13.1 19(c)(vii), Tenant shall deliver an executed copy of such assignment or sublease to Landlord to obtain its consent as required in Section 13.1 19(a) above.
(e) In the event Landlord elects to so terminate this Lease pursuant to the provisions of this Section 13.1 19(c)(vii), Landlord may, if it elects, enter into a new lease covering the Premises, or any portion thereof, with Tenant’s intended transferee on such terms as Landlord and such transferee may agree or enter into a new lease covering the Premises or any portion thereof with any person or entity and, in either such event, Tenant shall not be entitled to any portion of the profit or other consideration received by Landlord on account of such termination and reletting. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease as above provided, Tenant shall surrender the Premises in accordance with all of the terms and provisions of this Lease to the same extent as if such date was the scheduled expiration date of the term of this Lease, within sixty (60) days following Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of its notice to terminate.

(ix) No permitted assignment or sublease shall be valid and no assignee or sublessee shall take possession of the Premises assigned or sublet unless, within ten (10) days after the execution thereof, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a duly executed duplicate original of such assignment or sublease in form satisfactory to Landlord which provides that (i) the assignee or sublessee assumes Tenant’s obligations for the payment of rent and for the full and faithful observance and performance of the covenants, terms and conditions contained herein, and (ii) that said assignee or sublessee will, at Landlord’s election, attorn directly to Landlord in the event Tenant’s Lease is terminated for any reason. Said duplicate original of the instrument of assignment or sublease shall be accompanied by a certified resolution of the board of directors of Tenant and such assignee or subtenant, if either is a corporation, which resolution authorizes the signatories to such instrument of assignment or sublease to execute same in the name and on behalf of the corporation executing same.
20. FIRE INSURANCE. Tenant shall keep the Building and all improvement to be constructed upon the Premises insured to the extent of the full insurable value thereof against loss by fire, as well as the perils covered by the term “Special Form Property Insurance” (including but not being limited to damage from riot, vandalism, and civil commotion) and against loss by earthquake and sonic boom with solvent insurance companies authorized and licensed to issue such policies in the State of North Carolina; and
| 11 |
|
NGOP - Bank of Oak Ridge 9 13 04

Such policies shall be taken out by Tenant and shall be issued in the name of Landlord and Tenant “as their interests may appear” and Tenant shall furnish Landlord a copy of each such policy within fifteen (15) days after its issuance. Each such policy shall contain an agreement by the insurer that it will not cancel or terminate the policy or reduce the limits or amount of the policy without first having given to Landlord twenty (20) days’ written notice of its intention to do so. Tenant shall pay the initial premium on such insurance policies upon completion of construction of the Building and shall deliver to Landlord a written receipt showing such payment within fifteen (15) days from such date, and Tenant shall thereafter pay all premiums necessary to keep such insurance in force and shall furnish Landlord a written receipt showing payment thereof within fifteen (15) days after the same shall have become due. In the event Tenant shall fail to pay the premiums upon such policy or policies of insurance or in the event Tenant shall fail to obtain such policy or policies of insurance, Landlord may pay said premiums or obtain said insurance and pay said premiums and Tenant shall immediately reimburse Landlord for the amount so paid.
21. LIABILITY INSURANCE.

Such liability insurance shall be in amounts of not less than One Million and NO/100—Dollars ($1,000,000.00) combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage with a per occurrence aggregate of not less than Two Million and NO/100—Dollars ($2,000,000.00) and Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) for damage to property.

Tenant shall pay all premiums coming due on said insurance. Landlord shall be named an insured in said policy although Tenants’ interest may also be insured in such policy when permissible. Each such policy shall contain an agreement by the insurer that it will not cancel or terminate the policy or reduce the limits or amounts of the policy without first having given to Landlord twenty (20) days’ written notice of its intention to do so. Tenant shall pay the initial premium on such insurance policy prior to or upon the commencement of the term of this Lease and shall deliver to Landlord a written receipt showing payment of the premium thereon within fifteen (15) days after the commencement of the term of this Lease, and Tenant shall thereafter pay all premiums necessary to keep such insurance in force and shall furnish Landlord a written receipt showing payment thereof within fifteen (15) days after the same shall have become due.
22. DAMAGE TO OR DESTRUCTION OF BUILDING. If the Building shall be damaged or destroyed by fire, windstorm, earthquake, or by any other casualty, whether insured or not, Tenant shall forthwith and immediately, at its own expense, commence to repair and restore the Building to its former condition without delay in accordance with plans and specifications which conform substantially to the former condition of the Building, both as to architecture and as to type of construction; and Tenant shall complete the same with all due diligence. All insurance proceeds by reason of such damage or destruction shall be used by Tenant for repairing and restoring the Building to its former condition. If after the tenth (10th) year of the term of this Lease, the cost of repairing such damage or destruction shall exceed the amount of all insurance proceeds paid or payable, by reason of such damage or destruction plus all deductible amounts provided for in the policies of insurance insuring against the event causing such damage or destruction, and if Tenant pays to Landlord an amount equal to the amount of all such insurance proceeds paid or payable to it plus all such deductible amounts and releases to Landlord all interest it may have in all such insurance proceeds paid or payable to Landlord, Tenant may, at its election, terminate this Lease by giving Landlord written notice of its election to do so within forty-five (45) days
| 12 |
NGOP - Bank of Oak Ridge 9 13 04
after the date such damage or destruction occurs, such termination to be effective as of the date of such damage or destruction in which event Tenant shall, unless otherwise instructed in writing by Landlord, leave all remaining improvements on the Premises and return the Premises to Landlord in substantially the same condition as received.
If Tenant does not have the right to terminate the Lease under the foregoing provisions, or it Tenant has such right but does not elect to do so, Tenant shall commence to repair and restore the Building within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction and shall diligently prosecute such repair and restoration to completion. If Tenant either fails so to commence said repair and restoration or, having commenced it, fails to diligently prosecute the same to completion after the commencement thereof, Tenant shall become liable to and immediately pay Landlord as damages an amount equal to the cost of such repair and restoration, in case Tenant shall not begin the same, or an amount equal to the cost of completing such repair and restoration, in case Tenant shall have commenced the same but shall not have prosecuted such repair and restoration to completion after the commencement thereof. In such case, Landlord may either (1) terminate this Lease and retain all of said payments as damages, or (2) repair and restore said Building or complete the repair and restoration of said Building, as the case may be, without effecting a termination of this Lease. If any insurance proceeds have been paid to Landlord as an insured by reason of such damage or destruction, such liability of Tenant to Landlord shall be deemed to be discharged to the extent of the amount of such insurance proceeds so paid to Landlord, but only to such extent.
Tenant shall give to Landlord and to all mortgagees of record prompt written notice of any damages to or destruction of any portion of the Premises resulting from fire or other casualty.
23. EMINENT DOMAIN. In the event any part of the Premises shall be taken by any authority under the power of eminent domain, then the Term of this Lease shall cease on the part so taken on the day that possession of that part shall be required for any public purpose and Minimum Rent shall be paid to that day and from that day the monthly rental herein reserved shall be reduced in proportion to the amount of the Premises taken; provided, however, that in the event less than the whole of the Premises be so taken and by virtue of such taking the remaining portion of the Premises in Tenant’s reasonable business judgment, shall in fact no longer be useful practicably for purposes for which the same had been used by or under the authority of Tenant, then, Tenant shall have the option, upon written notice to be given within sixty (60) days after such taking to terminate this Lease. Compensation and damages awarded or proceeds of sale in lieu of condemnation for a partial or total taking of the Premises shall belong to and be the sole property of Landlord provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to receive from the condemning authority by separate award, all awards made for (i) the value of Tenant’s leasehold interest for the remainder of the existing Term, (ii) the value of the taking of or damage to Tenant’s improvements, including Tenant’s building, trade fixtures, improvements, equipment and personal property for the remainder of the existing Term, (iii) the value of Tenant’s loss of business and goodwill, (iv) severance damages, if any, to the remainder of Tenant’s leasehold in the event of partial condemnation, and (v) compensation for Tenant’s relocation costs, if any.
24. LOSS OF PROPERTY OR DAMAGE. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss of any property of Tenant from the Premises or for any damages to any property of Tenant, however, occurring.
25. INDEMNITY. Tenant covenants to indemnify, protect, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold harmless Landlord and any person or persons in privity of estate with Landlord from and against any and all claims and demands of third persons (including, but not limited to, those for death, for personal injuries, or for loss of or damage to property) occurring in or arising directly or indirectly, out of or in connection with the use and occupancy of the Premises, any breach of this Lease, Tenant’s Work or alterations performed by Tenant in or to the Premises, the business conducted in the Premises, or (without limiting the foregoing) as a result of any acts, omissions, or negligence of Tenant, or any concessionaire, or their respective contractors,
| 13 |
NGOP - Bank of Oak Ridge 9 13 04
licensees, agents, servants, employees or other persons in or about the Premises, and from and against all costs, expenses and liability occurring in or in connection with any such claim or proceeding brought thereon.
26. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Tenant releases Landlord, to the extent of insurance coverage actually maintained or required to be maintained pursuant to this Lease Agreement on the Premises, from any liability for loss or damage even if such casualty should be brought about by the fault or negligence of Landlord, its agents, or employees; provided that this release shall be in effect only with respect to loss or damage occurring during the time that Tenant’s policies for fire and extended coverage insurance contain a clause to the effect that this release shall not affect the right of Tenant to recover under such policies. Tenant shall request each insurance company writing fire and extended coverage insurance policies covering its property on the Premises to include such a clause but only so long as it is includable without extra cost or, if extra cost is chargeable therefor, only so long as Landlord pays such extra cost. If extra cost is chargeable therefor, Tenant shall advise Landlord of such extra cost, and Landlord at its election may pay the same, but shall have no obligation to do so.
27. CARE OF PREMISES. Tenant shall not permit, allow or cause any act or deed to be performed or any practice to be adopted or followed in or about the Premises which shall cause or be likely to cause injury or damage to any person or to the Premises or to the Building or to the sidewalks and pavements adjoining the Premises. Tenant, at all times, shall keep the Premises in a neat and orderly condition, clean and free from rubbish, dirt, snow and ice. Tenant shall keep the Premises clean and free of rodents, bugs and vermin. Tenant shall not use or permit the use of any portion of the Premises as sleeping or living quarters or as lodging rooms, or for any illegal purpose. Tenant shall not permit, allow or cause and noxious, disturbing or offensive disturbing noise, sound or vibrations to originate on and be emitted from the Premises.
28. ENTRY FOR INSPECTION. Landlord shall have the right to enter upon the Premises, including all improvements that may be erected thereon at reasonable times when Tenant is open for business for the purpose of inspection thereof and to submit said Premises to prospective purchasers, lenders and/or tenants.
29. OWNERSHIP OF IMPROVEMENTS ON TERMINATION. Upon the expiration of the term of this Lease, as extended if extended, or upon the earlier termination of this Lease (unless hereinbefore provided otherwise as to any earlier termination), Landlord shall have the right, at its election, either (1) to require Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, to remove all improvements from the Premises and to restore the Premises to their former condition, such removal and restoration to be accomplished within a reasonable time after such termination, or (2) to retain the Building and all other improvements as Landlord’s own property with title and ownership thereof vesting in Landlord in fee simple free from any claims of Tenant, without the payment by Landlord to Tenant, of any consideration therefor of any type or kind.
30. COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY. Tenant shall comply with all laws, orders, regulations, rules and requirements of every kind and nature relating to the Premises, including any and all improvements thereon, now or hereafter in effect, of federal, state, municipal or other governmental authorities having power to enact, adopt, impose or require the same, whether they be usual or unusual, ordinary or extraordinary, and whether they or any of them relate to structural changes or requirements of whatever nature or to changes or requirements incident to, or as the result of any use or occupation thereof or otherwise; and Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses incidental to such compliance. Tenant shall have the right to contest or review any order issued against the Premises by legal proceedings or in such other manner as it may deem advisable, and may have any such order, or rule, violation, requirement or notice canceled, removed or revoked without actual compliance therewith; and if any actions or proceedings are instituted, they shall be instituted and conducted promptly at the expense of Tenant and free of expense to Landlord; and if as a result of any such proceedings any order, regulation, rule, violation, requirement, or notice is modified or partially revoked or canceled, Tenant shall then be obligated to comply only with such part thereof as shall remain force and effect.

(a) The filing by, on behalf of or against Tenant of any petition or pleading to declare Tenant a bankrupt, voluntary or involuntary, under any bankruptcy law or act.
(b) The appointment by any court or under any law of a receiver trustee, or other custodian of the property, assets or business of Tenant.

If Landlord shall elect to terminate Tenant’s right to possession only as above provided, without terminating the term hereof, Landlord, at its option, may enter into the Premises and remove Tenant’s property and other evidences of tenancy and take and hold possession thereof without such entry and possession terminating the term hereof or in any way releasing Tenant in whole or in part from its obligation to pay the rent herein reserved for the full term hereof. Upon and after entry into possession without termination of the term hereof, Landlord may, but need not, relet the Premises or any part for the account of Tenant to any person, firm or corporation other than Tenant for such rent, for such time, and upon such terms as Landlord in its sole discretion shall determine. If any rent collected by Landlord upon such reletting for Tenant’s account is not sufficient to pay monthly the full amount of the rent herein reserved and not theretofore paid by Tenant, together with the costs of any repairs, alterations, or redecoration necessary for such reletting, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of each monthly deficiency upon demand, and if the rent so collected from such reletting is more than sufficient to pay the full amount of the rent reserved hereunder, together with the aforementioned costs, such excess amount shall belong solely to the Landlord.

59. TIME OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence of this Lease and all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions hereof.
60. LEASEHOLD MORTGAGE. In addition to and in expansion of Tenant’s rights of mortgaging and subletting, Landlord agrees as follows:
A. Mortgage of Leasehold Interest. Tenant shall have the right without Landlord’s consent to mortgage and otherwise encumber Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises, and Tenant’s interest in the Building and any related improvements, or any
| 20 |
|
NGOP - Bank of Oak Ridge 9 13 04
part thereof, at any time during the Lease Term as security for the performance of Tenant’s obligations under an instrument encumbering the same. It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that Landlord’s fee interest in the Premises shall not in any manner be encumbered, reduced or diminished by Tenant through such pledging or encumbering of Tenant’s leasehold interest. Any such pledge or encumbrance placed pursuant to this Section 60 is herein referred to as a “Mortgage.” The term “Mortgagee” shall mean a holder of record of any Mortgage. Any Mortgage shall require the Mortgagee to give Landlord written notice of any default under the Mortgage and the right for a period of thirty (30) days to cure such default.
B. Notification to Landlord of Mortgage. Upon placing a record of Mortgage, Tenant shall notify Landlord of the terms, provisions, rights and obligations thereof and of the address of the Mortgagee to which notices shall be sent. So long as a Mortgage is in effect as to which such notice has been given, no alteration, amendment, modification or voluntary termination of this Lease shall be made without the prior written consent of such Mortgagee.
C. Notice to Mortgagee. When giving notice to Tenant with respect to any default under this Lease, Landlord shall also send a copy of such notice to each Mortgagee as to which Landlord has received notice from Tenant, and no such notice to Tenant shall be effective unless a copy of such notice is duly sent to the Mortgagee. Each Mortgagee will have sixty (60) days after the expiration of any grace period of Tenant to cure the default, or cause the same to be remedied. All such notices to Mortgagee shall be sent registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed to Mortgagee at the address contained in the notice sent by Tenant_at the time the Mortgage is entered into, or at such other address as Mortgagee shall subsequently designate in writing received by Landlord.
D. Right of Mortgagee to Cure Default. Upon the occurrence of any default, each Mortgagee shall have the right to make good such default in the place of Tenant, whether the same consists of failure to pay rent or failure to make any other payment or to perform any other matter or thing which Tenant is hereby required to do or perform, and Landlord shall accept such performance on the part of the Mortgagee as though the same has been done or performed by Tenant. In the case of any default by Tenant (other than in the payment of rent or other payment or money hereunder) which can be cured only by the party having title or possession of the Building and improvements or of Tenant’s interest under this Lease, Landlord will take no action to obtain possession of the Premises or exercise any other remedies for default without first giving to the Mortgagee reasonable time (not to exceed ninety (90) days) within which either (i) to obtain title or possession (including possession by a receiver) and cure such default, in the case of a default which is susceptible of being cured when the Mortgagee has obtained possession or title, or (ii) to institute foreclosure proceedings and complete such foreclosure, or otherwise acquire Tenant’s interest under this Lease, with diligence and continuity; provided, however, that the Mortgagee shall not be required to continue such possession, hold such title or continue such foreclosure proceedings if the default shall be cured; and provided, further, that nothing herein shall preclude Landlord from exercising any rights and remedies under this Lease with respect to any other default by Tenant during any period of such foreclosure, subject to the provisions hereof.
E. Mortgagee’s Right to Leasehold Interest. Any Mortgagee may become the legal owner and holder of Tenant’s interest created by this Lease by foreclosure of its Mortgagee, or as a result of the assignment of this Lease in lieu of foreclosure, or upon entering into a new lease with Landlord as hereinafter provided, whereupon such Mortgagee (or its assignee) shall immediately assume Tenant’s obligations under this Lease so long as (but not longer than) such Mortgagee is in or entitled to possession of the Premises or holds the leasehold interest hereunder.
F. New Lease with Mortgagee Upon Transfer of Tenant’s Interest. In the event of transfer of Tenant’s interest to a Mortgagee, Landlord will, upon request, enter into a new lease (“New Lease”) of the Premises with the Mortgagee or its assigns as Tenant for the remainder of the original Lease Term, effective as of the date of such transfer of Tenant’s interest in this Lease,
| 21 |
|
NGOP - Bank of Oak Ridge 9 13 04
for the rent, and upon the covenants, agreements, terms, conditions and limitations herein contained, provided that all defaults hereunder are cured, and provided further that entering into a New Lease will not release Tenant from any of its obligations to Landlord hereunder.
G. New Lease with Mortgagee Upon Termination of Lease. If pursuant to the provisions contained in Section 31, Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, then in such event Landlord agrees to enter into a New Lease (“New Lease”) of the Premises with the Mortgagee or its assigns as Tenant for the remainder of the original Lease Term, effective as of the date of such termination, for the rent, and upon the covenants, agreements, terms, conditions and limitations herein contained, subject to the following conditions:
| (1) | The Mortgagee, or its assigns, shall make written request to Landlord for such New Lease within forty-five (45) days after the date of such termination; and such written request shall be accompanied by a payment to Landlord of all sums then due Landlord under this Lease. |
| (2) | The Mortgagee, or its assigns, shall, pay to Landlord, at the time of the execution and delivery of the New Lease, any and all sums then due thereunder. |
| (3) | The Mortgagee, or its assigns, shall, on or before the execution of the New Lease, perform all the other conditions required to be performed by Tenant to the extent that Tenant shall have failed to perform such conditions, or if such other conditions require additional time to be performed, the Mortgagee or its assigns given written assurance that same will be performed as quickly as reasonably possible. |
| (4) | Upon the execution and delivery of the New Lease, any subleases which may have heretofore been assigned and transferred to Landlord shall thereupon be assigned and transferred by Landlord to the new lessee, without recourse to Landlord. |
| (5) | Tenant shall not be released from any of its obligations to Landlord hereunder. |
Termination of Mortgagee Upon Termination of Lease. Upon termination of this Lease by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of Section 31 hereof, any mortgage granted by Tenant shall also thereby be terminated unless a New Lease is entered into with the Mortgagee or its assigns as described above.
61. CONDITIONS TO TENANT’S OBLIGATIONS. Tenant’s obligations under this Lease are expressly conditioned upon the written approval of the Premises for the location of a bank by the North Carolina State Banking Commission and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Tenant shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such approvals. Notwithstanding the above Tenant shall receive such approval within 60 days or said lease shall become null and void.

COVENANT FOR MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENTS
Section 1. Agreement to Pay for Maintenance. The Declarant, for each Parcel owned by it within the Subject Property, and each Owner of any Parcel, by acceptance of a deed therefor, whether or not it shall be so expressed in such deed, are deemed to have agreed to all of the covenants contained in this Declaration and expressly to covenant and agree to pay to the Association an annual assessment, which shall be in such amounts and payable at such times as determined by the Association, which assessments shall be used as required or deemed appropriate by the Association for the repair, maintenance and replacement of the Designated Maintenance Items, including the Wet Detention Pond. Such maintenance and repairs shall include, but not be limited to, the cost
6
EXHIBIT C
of repairs, replacements and additions, and the cost of labor, equipment, materials and management and supervision including a reasonable management fee (not to exceed five percent (5%) of such costs and expenses) to the Management Firm. The assessment also will provide for the procurement and maintenance of insurance, the provision of adequate reserves for the replacement of major structures incorporated into the Wet Detention Pond, taxes, such other needs as may arise, and any other charges incurred by the Association as provided in the Bylaws of the Association (the “Association Costs”).
Section 2. Amount of Assessments. The Owner of each Parcel shall pay to the Association its Pro-rata Share (as hereinabove defined in Section 18 of Article I) of the total Association Costs provided in Section 1 above, payable in such amounts and at such times as determined by the Association.
Section 3. Management Firm. The Association, by majority vote, shall designate a management firm (the “Management Firm”) on or before the first day of each calendar year to perform the maintenance and repair of Designated Maintenance Items located on the Common Area. The Management Firm as so designated shall perform such maintenance and shall pay the Association Costs, and shall xxxx each Owner for its share of such costs, calculated as provided in Section 2 above, on a quarterly basis. Each Owner shall pay such Owner’s share of such Association Costs, and the amounts so billed shall be due and payable to such Management Firm within thirty (30) days after the bills are rendered. Declarant hereby designates Starmount as the Management Firm for calendar years 1998 and 1999. Thereafter, the Management Firm shall be selected on a competitive bid basis.
Section 4. Failure to Maintain. If any Owner (the “Defaulting Owner”) fails to maintain its Parcel and the Improvements thereon in the condition required under Article V hereof, then any Owner or group of owners (the “Maintaining Owner”) may undertake to maintain such area upon fifteen (15) days prior written notice to the Defaulting Owner, and the Defaulting Owner shall pay all costs and expenses of such maintenance to the Maintaining Owner within ten (10) days after receipt of a detailed invoice for such cost and expenses, a copy of the contract with the licensed contractor performing such work, and evidence that the contractor was the low bidder of at least two licensed contractor bidders.
Section 5. Effect of Nonpayment. Any amount due under the terms of this Declaration which is not paid within thirty (30) days after the due date shall bear interest from the due date at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum or the maximum interest rate permitted to be legally charged under the laws of the State of North Carolina at the time of such delinquency, whichever is less, and shall be a charge on the Parcel of the Defaulting Owner and shall be a continuing lien upon the Parcel of the Defaulting Owner. In the case of co-ownership of a Parcel, all of the co-owners shall be jointly and severally liable for the entire amount of any such lien. Any Owner, or group of Owners, their agents or representatives may bring an action at law against any other Owner obligated to pay amounts due under the terms of this Declaration or may foreclose the lien against the Parcel, and interest, late payment fees, costs and reasonable attorney’s fees of such action or foreclosure shall be added to the amount due.

Section 6. Subordination of the Lien to Mortgages. The liens provided for herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any first or second lien deed of trust on a Parcel, provided the beneficiary of such deed of trust is an Institutional Lender. Sale or transfer of a Parcel or any portion of the Subject Property shall not affect any lien, but the sale or transfer of a Parcel or any portion of the Subject Property which is subject to a mortgage or deed of trust to which the lien is subordinate, pursuant to a foreclosure of such mortgage or deed of trust or any proceeding in lieu of foreclosure thereof, shall extinguish such lien as to any amount which became due prior to such sale or transfer. No such sale or transfer shall relieve such Parcel from liability for any amount thereafter becoming due or from the lien thereof, and the liens provided for in this Article IV shall continue to be subordinate to the lien of those mortgages and deeds of trust identified in the first sentence of this Section 6.
Section 7. Records and Audit. The Management Firm shall maintain detailed books and records of all costs and expenses incurred by it in the performance of its obligations under this Article IV, for a period of at least twenty-four (24) months following the end of each calendar year.

Section 8. Certificates. The Management Firm shall, upon written demand and payment of a reasonable charge not to exceed twenty dollars ($20.00), furnish to any Owner a certificate in writing signed by an authorized officer of the Management Firm setting forth whether the assessments against such Owner’s Parcel have been paid to date, and if not, the amount due and owing. These certificates shall be conclusive as evidence for third parties as to the status of assessments against such Parcel.
Section 9. Default by Association. Upon default by the Association in the payment to the jurisdiction entitled thereto of any assessments for public improvements or ad valorem taxes levied against the Common Area, which default shall continue for a period of six (6) months, each Owner of a Parcel shall become personally obligated to pay to the jurisdiction a portion of the taxes or assessments in an amount determined by dividing the total taxes and/or assessments due to the jurisdiction by the total number of Parcels. If the sum is not paid by the Owner within thirty (30) days, the sum shall become a continuing lien on the Parcel of the Owner, his heirs, devisees, personal representatives, and assigns. The taxing or assessing jurisdiction may either bring an action at law against the Owner personally obligated to pay the same, or may elect to foreclose the lien against the Parcel of the Owner.
