TAXES

Section 3.01 Lessee’s Obligation to Pay Taxes.

(a) Unless a the holder (a “Fee Mortgagee”) of any mortgage encumbering the fee interest of Lessor of which Lessee has been provided a copy (a “Fee Mortgage”) requires otherwise, Lessor shall, if possible, cause the applicable taxing authority to send all applicable tax bills directly to Lessee, then Lessee shall pay or cause to be paid (except as hereinafter provided in this Article), before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto for the nonpayment thereof, all real estate taxes, assessments (including, without limitation, special taxes or assessments for improvements to the Improvements) and assessments by business improvement districts, water and sewer rates and charges, any rent tax, occupancy tax or similar tax (including, without limitation, the Tax on Rental or License Fee for Use of Real Property imposed by Section 212.031 of the Florida Statutes), whether or not imposed on or measured by the rents payable by Lessee, and other governmental or quasi-governmental levies and charges, general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen, of any kind and nature whatsoever, which are now or at any time hereafter levied, imposed or become a lien upon the Demised Premises or the Improvements, or both, or any part of either thereof (all of which are hereinafter referred to collectively as “Impositions” and individually as “Imposition”).

(b) If, by law, any Imposition is payable, or may at the option of the taxpayer be paid, in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Lessee may pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments as the same respectively become due and before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto for the nonpayment of any such installment and interest. However, Lessee shall not be required to pay any installment which shall fall due after the expiration of the Term of this Lease. Any Imposition relating to a fiscal period of the taxing authority, in which the Term of this Lease shall begin or end (whether or not such Imposition shall be levied, imposed or become a lien upon the Demised Premises or the Improvements or any part of either thereof, or become payable in respect thereto during the Term of this Lease), shall be apportioned so that Lessee shall pay only that proportion of such Imposition which corresponds with the portion of said fiscal period as is within the Term of this Lease.

(c) Lessee shall not be obligated to pay any capital levy, franchise, estate, inheritance, succession, transfer tax, corporate tax, unincorporated business tax, excise tax, capital levies or mortgage recording fees of Lessor, or any income or excess profits tax or any other tax, assessment, charge or levy upon the income of Lessor, nor shall any of the foregoing be deemed to be included within the term “Impositions” as defined in Section 3.01 above. However, if a tax other than a tax of the nature specified in the foregoing sentence is levied upon the Net Rent, whether or not such tax is imposed upon Lessor in the first instance, Lessee shall pay it, or promptly reimburse Lessor for such tax, provided, however, that Lessee shall not be obligated to pay any greater amount than would have been payable by Lessor if the Net Rent had been the sole taxable income and the Demised Premises the sole asset of Lessor.

(d) Lessee, upon request of Lessor, shall furnish to Lessor for its inspection, within ten (10) business days after the date when any Imposition is payable pursuant to any provision of this Article, official receipts of the appropriate taxing authority, or if an official receipt is not available, other proof satisfactory to Lessor, evidencing the payment thereof.

Section 3.02 Tax Escrow. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 3, if a Fee Mortgagee requires monthly escrow payments for Impositions, Lessee shall, upon Lessor’s request, deposit with the Lessor (or any Fee Mortgagee designated by Lessor in writing) 1/12th of the annual Impositions as estimated by Lessor(or any such Fee Mortgagee). On the 1st day of each and every calendar month thereafter during the Term of this Lease, Lessee shall deposit with the Lessor (or any Fee Mortgagee designated by Lessor in writing), to be held by the Lessor (or such Fee Mortgagee), a sum equal to 1/12th of the annual Impositions for each then current or ensuing year. In the event that the amount of the Impositions shall not have been fixed at the time when any such monthly deposit is required to be made, Lessee shall make such deposit based upon the amount of the Imposition for the immediately preceding year, subject to adjustment as and when the amount of such Impositions is ascertained. Lessee shall provide Lessor with copies of tax bills within five (5) days after receipt thereof by Lessee. All sums deposited with the Lessor (or Fee Mortgagee) pursuant to this Section shall be applied to the payment of Impositions. No interest shall accrue on the sums so deposited. In the event the sums deposited hereunder are not sufficient to pay the Impositions when due, then Lessee shall, within ten (10) days of notice of the insufficiency, deposit with the Lessor (or Fee Mortgagee, as applicable) any such deficiency and shall also deposit such additional sums as shall be necessary to ensure that the amounts deposited hereunder plus such deposits as are required to be made in the future hereunder are sufficient to pay all Impositions then due or which will become due. In the event of a conveyance by Lessor of its interest in and to the Demised Premises, Lessor shall have no further liability with respect to the deposits for Impositions upon delivery thereof by Lessor to the transferee, provided that the transferee of the Lessor assumes the Lessor’s liability hereunder.

Section 3.03 Lessee May Contest Taxes.

(a) Lessee may contest any Impositions in any manner permitted by law, in Lessee’s name, and whenever necessary in Lessor’s name. Lessor will cooperate with Lessee and execute any documents or pleadings required for such purpose provided that such action is without expense to Lessor and that Lessor will not incur any liability by reason thereof. If such contest is instituted in the name of Lessor, Lessee shall so advise Lessor on at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice, giving full details as to the tribunal in which the contest will be brought, the Imposition contested and the amount thereof and such additional information relating thereto as Lessor may request to enable it to understand and evaluate the facts. Such contest may include appeals from any judgments, decrees or orders until a final determination is made by a court or governmental department or authority having final jurisdiction in the matter.

(b) At Lessee’s election, Lessee may defer payment of the Imposition if prior to the due date thereof Lessee shall have deposited with the Lessor the amount of the contested Imposition and an estimated amount of interest, penalties and charges which might be assessed against or become a charge on the Demised Premises and/or the Improvements by reason of such contest, and provided that the Demised Premises and/or the Improvements or any part thereof would not be in imminent danger of being forfeited or lost by reason of such deferment. Upon the termination of the contest Lessee shall pay the Imposition, as finally determined, together, with the interest, penalties and other charges in connection therewith, and upon such payment the sums deposited with the Lessor shall be returned to Lessee or, if Lessee so elects, the funds deposited with the Lessor may be used for such payment; any surplus to be returned to Lessee and any deficiency to be made good by Lessee.

(c) If at any time during the pendency of the contest, Lessor reasonably shall deem the amount deposited with the Lessor insufficient to cover the contested Imposition, interest, penalties and charges, Lessee, upon demand of Lessor, shall deposit with the Lessor such additional sums as Lessor may reasonably request. Upon failure of Lessee to make such additional deposit Lessor may pay the contested Imposition and interest, penalties and charges out of the funds held by the Lessor; any surplus to be returned to Lessee and any deficiency to be made good by Lessee.

(d) Any tax refund with respect to Impositions paid by Lessee or paid by Lessor and for which Lessor has been reimbursed shall be the property of Lessee after deduction and payment of the reasonable costs of procuring such refund incurred by Lessor.

Section 3.04 Miscellaneous. The certificate, advice, receipt or xxxx of the appropriate official designated by law to make or issue the same or to receive payment of any Imposition, or of non-payment of such Imposition shall be prima facie evidence that such Imposition is due and unpaid or has been paid at the time of the making or issuance of such certificate, advice, receipt or xxxx.

(g) Such other insurance and in such amounts as may from time to time be reasonably required by Lessor against other insurable hazards which at the time are customarily insured against in the case of premises and buildings similarly situated in Tampa, Florida, due regard being, or to be given to the height and type of building, its construction, use and occupancy.

Section 9.03 Payment by Lessee. Lessee shall pay to Lessor an amount equal to one hundred (100%) percent of all insurance premiums or installments thereof for the policies of insurance described in Section 9.02 hereof, as Additional Rent, thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such insurance premiums or any installments thereof are payable, upon the receipt of a statement from Lessor specifying the amount of any such insurance premium or installment.

Section 9.06 Named Insureds. All policies of insurance required under Section 9.01 and 9.02 shall name Lessor and the holder of any Fee Mortgage on the Demised Premises, as their interests may appear.

Section 9.07 Blanket Policies. Any insurance provided for in this Article may be effected by a blanket policy or policies of insurance, or under so-called “all risk” or “multi-peril” insurance policies, provided that the amount of the total insurance available in respect of the Demised Premises and the Improvements shall be at least the protection equivalent to separate policies in the amounts herein required, and provided further that in other respects, any such policy or policies shall comply with the provisions of this Article. An increased coverage or “umbrella policy” may be provided and utilized by Lessee to increase the coverage provided by individual or blanket policies in lower amounts and the aggregate liabilities provided by all such policies covering the Demised Premises and the Improvements and Lessee’s liability hereunder shall be satisfactory provided they otherwise comply with the provisions of this Article. In any such case, it shall not be necessary to deliver the original of any such blanket policy to the Lessor, but Lessor shall be furnished with a certificate or duplicate of such policy upon request.

Section 9.08 Subrogation Rights. Neither Lessee nor Lessor shall be liable for loss or damage caused by fire or other perils covered or normally covered by insurance policies maintained or required to be maintained by this Lease by the other party with respect to the Demised Premises, or any personal property contained in the same, and each party on behalf of itself and any insurer, waives all rights of subrogation against the other with respect to those perils. This waiver of liability and subrogation shall apply regardless of the negligence of either party and shall not be limited by the amount of insurance coverage carried by the parties hereto, or either of them. Both parties shall obtain and maintain a waiver of subrogation from their respective carriers. The provisions of this Section 9.08 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE

Section 10.01 Repairs and Maintenance by Lessee. To the extent not caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor, Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall take good care of the Demised Premises and shall keep and maintain all non-structural portions of the Demised Premises (whether interior or exterior) and perform all non-structural repairs and maintenance to all Improvements, including any parking areas (except as provided in Section 10.02), landscaping, adjacent private roadways, private streets and private sidewalks that are all part of the Demised Premises, in a clean and orderly condition, free of accumulation of dirt, rubbish, snow and ice. Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall make all non-structural repairs to the Demised Premises and all Improvements, including, but not limited to, the HVAC, plumbing (but not underslab or underground plumbing or pipes) and electrical systems (collectively, the "Systems") that service the Demised Premises, parking areas, landscaped areas, sidewalks, private roadways and streets, curbs and vaults. When used in this Article, the word “repairs” shall include replacements, renewals or substitutions when necessary, and all such repairs shall be of such class and character as are appropriate at the time for the Improvements giving due consideration to the age, character and class of the Improvements.

Section 10.02 Repairs by Lessor. Lessor shall, except as otherwise provided herein, at its sole cost and expense (i) repair and maintain the Roof of the Building (ii) repair and maintain (including resurfacing, to the extent necessary in the reasonable opinion of Lessor) the parking lot as necessary (except for day to day upkeep such as trash and debris removal which will be Lessee’s responsibility), and (iii) make all structural repairs to the Building. Notwithstanding the forgoing, if any of the repairs described in this Section 10.02 are necessitated by the negligence, improper care or use by Lessee, its agents, employees, contractors, subtenants, licensees or invitees, such repairs shall be made by Lessor at Lessee's sole cost and expense. Lessor shall invoice Lessee upon completion of any work performed on Lessee’s behalf. There shall be no allowance to Lessee for a diminution of rental value and no liability on the part of Lessor by reason of inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business arising from Lessor, Lessee or others making any repairs, alterations, additions or improvements in or to any portion of the Demised Premises, or in or to the fixtures, appurtenances or equipment thereof, and, except as hereinafter provided in this Section 10.02, no liability upon Lessor for failure of Lessor or others to make any repairs, alterations, additions or improvements in or to any portion of the Demised Premises, or in or to the fixtures, appurtenances or equipment thereof. No default by Lessor under this Section 10.02 shall be deemed to have occurred unless Lessor fails to comply with the provision of this this Section 10.02 and such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after Lessor's receipt of written notice of such default from Lessee, provided that, if such default not reasonably capable of being cured within the thirty (30) days, no default shall be deemed to have occurred if Lessor commences to cure within the thirty (30) days and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion. Upon the occurrence of any default by Lessor under this Section 10.02, Lessee may perform Lessor's obligations under this Section 10.02, and offset the reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lessee in doing so against the next ensuing installments of Net Rent coming due under this Lease.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, non-structural, interior Alterations which cost less than $50,000 in the aggregate shall not require the consent of Lessor. Structural Alterations and all exterior Alterations shall be performed only by contractors or mechanics approved by Lessor, which approval or denial shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All Alterations done by Lessee shall at all times comply with all Legal Requirements and plans and specifications prepared by and at the sole cost and expense of Lessee (which shall be submitted to Lessor for its prior written approval if Lessor’s consent is required for such Alterations, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). No Alterations that require Lessor’s consent shall be undertaken by Lessee, its agents, employees, contractors, subtenants, licensees or invitees, until Lessor has approved such plans and specifications in writing (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and no amendments or additions to such plans and specifications shall be made without the prior written consent of Lessor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

Section 11.02 No Alteration, structural or otherwise, shall be undertaken until Lessee shall have procured and paid for all municipal and other governmental permits and authorizations of the various municipal departments and governmental subdivisions having jurisdiction relating to the particular phase of said Alteration to be undertaken. Lessor shall join in the application for such permits or authorizations whenever such action is necessary, provided that such action is without expense to Lessor. If by reason of any Alteration a new certificate of occupancy for the Improvements is required, Lessee shall obtain it promptly upon completion and shall furnish a copy thereof to Lessor promptly after its issuance.

Section 11.03 All work done in connection with any Alteration shall be done promptly and in a good and workmanlike manner of first-class materials and in compliance with all Legal Requirements including the building and zoning laws and all other laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and requirements of all federal, state and municipal governments and the appropriate departments, commissions, boards and officers thereof.

Section 11.04 Intentionally Omitted.

The provisions of the preceding sentence shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. At all times when any Alteration, structural or otherwise, is in progress Lessee shall, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, maintain or cause to be maintained the insurance required to be maintained by Lessee pursuant to Section 9.01. All such insurance for bodily injury and property damage shall name the Lessor as an insured thereunder; and the policies therefor shall be submitted to the Lessor for its approval of the coverage and insurer before any work is commenced.

Section 11.06 Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall obtain forthwith the cancellation or discharge of all notices of violation issued against the Demises Premises or the Building for violation of any building, fire, safety, health, sanitary or other code, statute, ordinance or rule or regulation promulgated under them, arising from or otherwise connected with any work performed by Lessee or by Lessee’s agents, employees, contractors, subtenants, licensees or invitees with respect to the Demised Premises.

Section 11.07 The Lessee agrees that in the exercise of any rights pursuant to the provisions of this Article, any other provision of this Lease and/or pursuant to any consent to any Alteration in or to the Demised Premises, it shall perform its work in a diligent and expeditious manner.

Section 11.08 Lessee shall make arrangements for and pay the reasonable fees (not to exceed $1,500) of any architect or engineer retained by Lessor to review Lessee’s plans and specifications in connection with any proposed Alterations for which Lessor’s consent is required pursuant to this Lease.

ARTICLE XII

FIRE AND OTHER CASUALTY

Section 12.01 If the Demised Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty (a "Casualty"), Lessor, at Lessor's expense, shall repair such damage. However, Lessor shall have no obligation to repair any damage to, or to replace, Lessee's personal property or any other property or effects of Lessee. If the entire Building shall be rendered untenantable by reason of any such damage, the Rent shall xxxxx for the period from the date of such damage to the date when such damage shall have been repaired, and if only a part of the Demised Premises shall be so rendered untenantable, the Rent shall xxxxx for such period in the proportion which the rentable area of the part of the Building so rendered untenantable bears to the total rentable area of the Building. However, if prior to the date when all of such damage shall have been repaired any part of the Building so damaged shall be rendered tenantable and shall be used or occupied by Lessee or any person or persons claiming through or under Lessee, then the amount by which the Rent shall xxxxx shall be equitably apportioned for the period from the date of any such use or occupancy to the date when all such damage shall have been repaired.

Section 12.02 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 12, if during the Term a “Material Portion” (as hereinafter defined) of the Building shall be damaged or rendered untenantable by a Casualty, and if Lessor shall decide not to restore the Building, then, Lessor, at Lessor's option, may give to Lessee within ninety (90) days after such Casualty, a thirty (30) days' notice of termination of this Lease and, in the event such notice is given, this Lease and the Term shall come to an end and expire (whether or not the Term shall have commenced) upon the expiration of said thirty (30) days with the same effect as if the date of expiration of said thirty (30) days were the Expiration Date. The Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of the Casualty and any prepaid portion of Rent for any period after such date shall be refunded by Lessor to Lessee.

Section 12.03 Notwithstanding anything set forth to the contrary in this Article, in the event that any Casualty rendering a “Material Portion” (as hereinafter defined) of the Building wholly untenantable occurs during the final twelve (12) months of the Term, either Lessor or Lessee may terminate this Lease by notice to the other party within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such Casualty, this Lease shall expire on the 30th day after the date of such notice, the Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of the Casualty and any prepaid portion of Rent for any period after such date shall be refunded by Lessor to Lessee. For purposes of this Article 12, a “Material Portion” of the Building shall be deemed untenantable if due to such Casualty, (a) Lessee shall be precluded from using more than 50% of the area of the Building for the conduct of its business and (b) Lessee’s inability to so use the Building is reasonably expected to continue until at least the earlier of the (i) Expiration Date, or (ii) the 90th day after the date when such Casualty occurred.

Section 12.04 Intentionally Omitted.

Section 12.05 If (i) a Material Portion of the Building is destroyed or damaged by any Casualty to an extent that, in Lessee’s reasonable opinion, Lessee is unable to occupy the Building for the conduct of its business, and (ii) within thirty (30) days after such Casualty Lessee vacates the Demised Premises and delivers to Lessor a written report prepared by a licensed engineer stating that, in the opinion of such engineer, the necessary repairs and restoration is not reasonably capable of being completed with 270 days after the date of Casualty, then Lessee may terminate this Lease on thirty (30) days’ notice to Lessor, provided such notice is given within thirty (30) days after such Casualty.

Section 12.06 This Article 12 constitutes an express agreement governing any case of damage or destruction of the Demised Premises or the Building by fire or other Casualty, and any law which provides for such contingency in the absence of an express agreement now or hereafter in force, shall have no application in any such case.

Section 12.07 Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Article 12, if Lessor or any Fee Mortgagee shall be unable to collect all of the insurance proceeds (including rent insurance proceeds) applicable to damage or destruction of the Demised Premises or the Building by reason of any willful action or inaction on the part of Lessee then, without prejudice to any other remedies which may be available against Lessee, (i) there shall be no abatement of Rent, and (ii) Lessor shall have no obligation to restore the Demised Premises or the Building.

ARTICLE XIII

CONDEMNATION

Section 13.01 In the event that the whole of the Demised Premises or the Building shall be lawfully condemned or taken in any manner for any public or quasi-public use, this Lease and the Term and estate hereby granted shall forthwith cease and terminate as of the date of vesting of title. In the event that only a part of the Building shall be so condemned or taken, then effective as of the date of vesting of title, the Rent hereunder shall be abated in an amount thereof apportioned according to the rentable area of the Building so condemned or taken. In the event that only a part of the Demised Premises shall be so condemned or taken, then (a) if such condemnation or taking shall be of a “Material Portion” of the Building or a substantial part of the means of access thereto, Lessor and Lessee each shall have the right, by delivery of notice in writing to the other within a sixty (60) days following the date on which Lessee shall have received notice of vesting of title, to terminate this Lease and the Term and estate hereby granted as of the date of vesting of title or (b) if neither Lessor nor Lessee elects to terminate this Lease, as aforesaid, this Lease shall be and remain unaffected by such condemnation or taking, except that the Rent shall be abated to the extent, if any, hereinabove provided in this Article. In the event that only a part of the Building shall be so condemned or taken and this Lease and the Term and estate hereby granted are not terminated as hereinabove provided, Lessor will, at its expense, restore the remaining portion of the Building as nearly as practicable to the same condition as it was in prior to such condemnation or taking. In the event of a termination in any of the cases hereinabove provided, this Lease and the Term and estate granted shall expire as of the date of such termination with the same effect as if that were the Expiration Date of this Lease, and the Rent hereunder shall be apportioned as of such date. For purposes of this Article 13, a “Material Portion” of the Building shall be deemed taken if due to such condemnation or taking, (a) Lessee shall be precluded from using more than 50% of the area of the Building for the conduct of its business and (b) Lessee’s inability to so use the Building is reasonably expected to continue until at least the earlier of the (i) Expiration Date, or (ii) the 90th day after the date of the vesting of title.

Section 13.02 In the event of any condemnation or taking hereinabove mentioned of all or part of the Demised Premises, Lessor shall be entitled to receive the entire award in the condemnation proceeding, including any award made for the value of the estate vested by this Lease in Lessee, and Lessee hereby expressly assigns to Lessor any and all right, title and interest of Lessee now or hereafter arising in or to any such award or any part thereof, and Lessee shall be entitled to receive no part of such award, except that the Lessee may file a claim for any taking of nonmovable fixtures owned by Lessee and for moving expenses incurred by Lessee. It is expressly understood and agreed that the provisions of this Article 13 shall not be applicable to any condemnation or taking for governmental occupancy for a limited period except that if a material portion of the Demised Premises is taken then rent shall xxxxx proportionately during the limited period of such taking.

Section 13.03 In the event any action is filed to condemn the Demised Premises or any part thereof by any public or quasi public authority under the power of eminent domain, or in the event that any action is filed to acquire the temporary use of the Demised Premises or any part thereof, or in the event that any such action is threatened or any public or quasi public authority communicates to Lessor or Lessee its desire to acquire the Demised Premises or any part thereof, or the temporary use thereof, by a voluntary conveyance or transfer in lieu of condemnation, either Lessor or Lessee shall give prompt notice thereof to the other.

ARTICLE XIV

INDEMNITY; WAIVER

Section 14.01 Indemnification. Except for claims arising due to the negligence, misconduct, error or omission of Lessor or Lessor’s agents, contractors, servants, employees or invitees, Lessee will indemnify Lessor, defend and save Lessor harmless from against any and all claims, actions, lawsuits, damages, liability and expense (including, but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fee) arising from loss, damage or injury to persons or property occurring in, on or about the Demised Premises, arising out of the Demised Premises, or occasioned wholly or in part by any negligence, act or omission of Lessee, Lessee’s agents, contractors, servants, employees, space tenants, subtenants, invitees, licensees, or employees. In case any action or proceeding be brought against Lessor by reason of any such claim, Lessee upon notice from Lessor shall resist and defend such action or proceeding and employ counsel therefor reasonably satisfactory to Lessor, which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed.

Section 14.02 Inspection by Lessee. Lessee has inspected and is fully familiar with the physical condition of the Demised Premises and the Improvements and building service equipment presently situated thereon. Lessor has made no representations of whatever nature in connection with the condition of the Demised Premises or of the Improvements or building service equipment presently situated thereon and Lessor shall not be liable for any latent or patent defect therein. By entering into occupancy of the Demised Premises, Lessee shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed that Lessor, up to the time of such occupancy had performed all of its obligations hereunder and that the Demised Premises were in satisfactory condition as of the date of such occupancy. Nothing in this Section 14.02 shall relieve Lessor of Lessor’s obligations under Section 10.02 hereof.

Section 14.03 Prevailing Party. In any legal action brought by Lessor or Lessee against the other party in connection with this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reimbursement from the other party for any reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of the legal action incurred by the prevailing party.

Section 15.01 Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Lessee shall not mortgage, pledge, encumber or otherwise hypothecate this Lease or the Demised Premises or any part thereof in any manner whatsoever, and any attempt to do so shall be void and a material breach of this Lease. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Lessee shall not, whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise: (a) assign or otherwise transfer this Lease or offer or advertise to do so or (b) sublet any part of the Demised Premises, or offer or advertise to do so without obtaining the prior written consent of the Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any attempt by Lessee to assign or transfer this Lease (or its Term and estate) or offer or advertise to do so or sublet any part of the Demised Premises, or offer or advertise to do so, without strictly complying with the requirements of this Article shall be void and a material breach of this Lease. Use or occupancy of the Demised Premises by a licensee, concessionaire, or any person other than Lessee is a sublease subject to this Article. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall (i) have the right to assign this Lease or sublet all or any portion of the premises without Lessor’s consent (but after written notice) to any entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with Lessee as of the date on which such assignment or subletting is being made (any such entity being a “Related Party” and any such assignment or subletting being a “Related Party Assignment,” which shall include without limitation an assignment of Lessee’s interest under this Lease by operations of law or as a consequence of a merger of Lessee into or with a Related Party, a change of control of or change of ownership of Lessee provided a Related Party thereafter controls Lessee, or a sale of substantially all of Lessee’s assets to a Related Party) and (ii) sublet 10,000 square feet or less, in the aggregate, of any part of the Demised Premises to any entity or person, provided that such subtenant shall not engage in any Environmental Activity in or about the subleased premises (except that said subtenant may use cleaners and lubricant products provided they are used in accordance with Legal Requirements). Lessee shall give Lessor written notice of such sublease along with a copy of the executed sublease agreement at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of the sublease. For purposes of the definition of “Related Party,” the term “control” (including the correlative meanings of the terms “controlled by” and “under common control with”), means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management policies of an entity, whether through the ownership of voting securities, or by contract or otherwise.

Section 15.02 Lessor acknowledges its consent to that certain sublease of even date herewith by Lessee, as sub-landlord, and Purification Technologies, as sub-tenant, with respect to a portion of the Demised Premises more particularly described therein.

Section 15.03 No assignment of this Lease shall be valid or binding on Lessor unless and until the assignee executes and delivers to Lessor an agreement whereby the assignee assumes and agrees to be bound by all of the provisions of this Lease and to perform all of the obligations of Lessee hereunder.

Section 15.04 Notwithstanding any assignment or sublease to any other person, Lessee shall remain fully liable for the payment of Rents and for the performance of all the other obligations of Lessee contained in this Lease. Any act or omission of an assignee or subtenant or any person claiming under or through any of them that violates this Lease shall be deemed a violation of this Lease by Lessee.

Section 15.05 The consent by Lessor to any assignment to any entity or person other than a Related Party shall not relieve Lessee or any person claiming through or under Lessee of the obligation to obtain the consent of Lessor, pursuant to the provisions of this Article to any future assignment or sublease.

Section 15.06 Intentionally Omitted.

Section 15.07 Lessee shall reimburse Lessor on demand for any reasonable costs (not to exceed $2,500.00) that Lessor may incur in connection with any proposed assignment or sublease other than to a Related Party, including, without limitation, the costs of making investigations as to the acceptability of the proposed assignee or subtenant, and legal costs incurred in connection with any request for consent.

Section 15.08 Intentionally Omitted.

Section 15.09 Intentionally Omitted.

Section 15.10 Intentionally Omitted.

Section 15.11 If this Lease is assigned, whether or not in violation of the provisions of this Lease, Lessor may collect rent from the assignee. If the Demised Premises or any part thereof are sublet, whether or not in violation of this Lease, Lessor may, after monetary default by Lessee and expiration of Lessee's time to cure such default, collect rent from the sublessee until such violation is cured. In either event, Lessor may apply the net amount collected to payment of Rent, but no such assignment, subletting, or collection shall be deemed a waiver of any of the provisions of this Lease, an acceptance of the assignee or sublessee as a lessee or a release of Lessee from the performance by Lessee under this Lease.

ARTICLE XVI

SUBORDINATION

Section 16.01 This Lease is subject and subordinate in all respects to (i) the Fee Mortgage encumbering the Demised Premises on the date hereof (the “Existing Fee Mortgage”) and (ii) any “Institutional Fee Mortgage” (as hereinafter defined) which may now or hereafter be placed on or affect the real property of which the Demised Premises form a part, or parts of such real property, and/or Lessor's interest or estate therein, and to each advance made and/or hereafter to be made under any such Existing Fee Mortgage and/or Institutional Fee Mortgage, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof and all substitutions therefore. This Section 16.01 shall be self operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination, Lessee shall execute and deliver promptly any certificate that Lessor and/or the holder of any such Existing Fee Mortgage (the “Existing Fee Mortgagee”) and/or the holder of any Institutional Fee Mortgage (an “Institutional Fee Mortgagee”) and/or their respective successors in interest may request as to the subordination of this Lease. As used herein, an “Institutional Fee Mortgage” means a mortgage held by any savings bank, commercial bank, insurance company or other recognized institutional lender.

Section 16.02 (i) Within thirty (30) days after the date of this Lease, Lessor shall deliver to Lessee an “SNDA” (as hereinafter defined) to be executed by Lessee, Lessor and the Existing Fee Mortgagee, on the Existing Fee Mortgagee’s standard form. Lessee agrees to execute and deliver such SNDA to Lessor within ten (10) days after delivery by Lessor.

(ii) Prior to executing and delivering to any Institutional Fee Mortgagee an Institutional Fee Mortgage after the date of this Lease, Lessor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an SNDA to be executed by Lessee, Lessor and such Institutional Fee Mortgagee on the standard form then used by such Institutional Fee Mortgagee. Lessee agrees to execute and deliver such SNDA to Lessor within ten (10) days after delivery by Lessor.

(iii) With respect to any Fee Mortgage other than the Existing Fee Mortgage and any Institutional Fee Mortgage (a “Private Mortgage”), Lessee agrees to subordinate its interest under this Lease to any such Private Mortgage hereafter placed on the Premises, provided that, as a condition to such subordination, Lessee, Lessor and the holder of such Private Mortgage shall execute and deliver to each other a commercially reasonable SNDA.

(iv) As used herein, an “SNDA” means agreement to be executed by Lessee, Lessor and the Fee Mortgagee confirming the subordination of this Lease to the Fee Mortgage and containing an agreement by the Fee Mortgagee to the effect that so long as no default exists under this Lease, Lessee shall not be joined as a party defendant in any action or proceeding which may be instituted or taken by such Fee Mortgagee for the purpose of foreclosing any such Fee Mortgage and, so long as no default shall exist, (x) Lessee shall not be evicted from the Demised Premises, (y) Lessee’s leasehold estate hereunder shall not be terminated or disturbed and (z) the Fee Mortgagee shall recognize this Lease.

Section 16.03 Without limitation of any of the provisions of this Lease, in the event that any Fee Mortgagee and/or its assigns shall succeed to the interest of Lessor or of any successor lessor and/or shall have become lessee under a new ground or underlying lease, then, at the option of such mortgagee, this Lease shall nevertheless continue in full force and effect and Lessee shall and does hereby agree to attorn to such mortgagee or its assigns and to recognize such mortgagee or its respective assigns as its lessor.

Section 16.04 Lessee and Lessor shall, at any time and from time to time upon not less than ten (10) business days' prior notice to the other, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the requesting party a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modification) and the dates to which the rent, additional rent and other charges have been paid in advance, if any, and stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signer of such certificate Lessor or Lessee is in default in performance of any covenant, agreement, term, provision or condition contained in this Lease, and if so, specifying each such default of which the signer may have knowledge, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant hereto may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or lessee of said real property or any interest or estate therein, any Fee Mortgagee or prospective Fee Mortgagee thereof or any prospective assignee of this Lease or of any Fee Mortgage.

Section 16.05 Intentionally Omitted.

ARTICLE XVII

QUIET ENJOYMENT

Section 17.01 Quiet Enjoyment. Lessor covenants and agrees with Lessee that upon Lessee paying the Net Rent and other monetary sums due under the Lease and performing its covenants and conditions hereunder, Lessee shall and may peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Demised Premises and the Improvements for the entire Term of this Lease without hindrance or molestation of anyone claiming by, through or under Lessor, subject however to the provisions of this Lease.

ARTICLE XVIII

SIGNS

Section 18.01 Lessee shall also have the right to erect signs on the facade of the Building provided (i) the size, design, location and content of such sign complies with all applicable Legal Requirements, (ii) Lessee obtains all required permits therefor, and (iii) Lessee pays all costs and expenses attributable to Lessee’s installation and use of such sign, including, without limitation, labor and material costs and permit fees. Lessor does not represent or warrant that permits are obtainable for any particular sign.

ARTICLE XIX

CONDITIONAL LIMITATIONS; DEFAULTS

Section 19.01 Events of Default. If any one or more of the following events herein (sometimes called “Events of Default” or individually “Event of Default”) shall happen:

(a) Lessee shall abandon the Demised Premises and/or the Improvements and such abandonment shall continue for a period of fifteen (15) days after notice by Lessor; or

(b) Lessee shall default in making payment to Lessor of any Net Rent or any other amounts due on a monthly basis hereunder, as and when the same shall become due and payable, and such default in payment shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after notice by Lessor; provided, however, that if Lessee shall default in the timely payment of Rent more than two times in any period of 12 months, then, notwithstanding that such defaults shall have each been cured within the applicable period provided above, upon any further default in the timely payment of Rent, Lessor may serve a five (5) day notice of termination upon Lessee without affording Lessee an opportunity to cure such further default; or

(c) Lessee shall default in complying with any other agreements, terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease and such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after notice by Lessor specifying the claimed default; provided, however, that with respect to non-monetary defaults only, if the nature of such non-monetary default is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period, Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default if Lessee shall within such thirty (30) day period commence such cure and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion; or

(d) If at any time during the Term of this Lease (i) any proceedings in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization shall be instituted against Lessee pursuant to any federal or state law now or hereafter enacted, or any receiver or trustee shall be appointed of all or any portion of Lessee’s business or property, or any execution or attachment shall issue against Lessee or any of Lessee’s business or property or against the leasehold estate created hereby, and any of such proceedings, process or appointment be not discharged and dismissed within sixty (60) days from the date of such filing, appointment or issuance; or (ii) Lessee shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or Lessee shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or Lessee shall file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or petition for (or enter into) an arrangement or for reorganization, composition or any other arrangement with Lessee’s creditors under any federal or state law now or hereafter enacted, or this Lease or the estate of Lessee herein shall pass to or devolve upon, by operation of law or otherwise, anyone other than Lessee (except as herein provided);

then, and in any such events, Lessor at any time thereafter during the continuance of such Event of Default may serve a written five (5) day notice of cancellation and termination of this Lease (the “Termination Notice”) upon Lessee, and upon the expiration of said five (5) days, this Lease and the Term hereunder shall end and expire as fully and completely as if the date of expiration of such five (5) day period were the day herein definitely fixed for the end and expiration of this Lease and the Term thereof, and Lessee shall then quit and surrender to Lessor the Demised Premises, the Improvements and each and every part thereof, and Lessor may enter into or repossess the Demised Premises, the Improvements and each and every part thereof, either by force, summary proceedings or otherwise.

Section 19.02 Lessee’s Liability. No such expiration or termination of this Lease shall relieve Lessee of its liability and obligation to pay Net Rent, Impositions, insurance premiums and any other amounts due Lessor hereunder, and such liability and obligations shall survive any such expiration or termination.

Section 19.03 Right to Re-Enter and Re-Let. If this Lease shall terminate pursuant to any of the provisions of this Article or if this Lease shall terminate by expiration, forfeiture, cancellation, surrender, operation of law, issuance of final court order or otherwise then in any of said events:

(a) Lessor may re-enter the Demised Premises, and enter the Improvements to remove therefrom Lessee, its agents, employees, licensees and any sublessees, persons, firms or corporations and all of their respective property, using such reasonable force for that purpose as may be necessary without being liable for prosecution or damages therefor, and thereupon Lessor shall be entitled to retain possession of the Demised Premises and the Improvements with all additions, alterations and improvements thereon, fixtures and appurtenances thereto, free from any estate or interest of Lessee therein. Lessee does hereby expressly waive service of any notice of intention to re-enter or enter except as herein otherwise expressly provided.

(b) Lessor, at Lessor’s option, may relet the whole or any part of parts of the Demised Premises and the Improvements, from time to time, either in the name of Lessor or otherwise, to such lessee or lessees, for such term or terms ending before, on or after the date fixed in this Lease for the expiration of the Term; at such rental or rentals and upon such other conditions, which may include concessions and free rent periods, as Lessor, in its sole discretion, may determine. Lessor shall have no obligation to relet the Demised Premises, the Improvements or any part thereof and shall in no event be liable for refusal or failure to relet the Demised Premises, the Improvements or any part thereof, or, in the event of any such reletting, for refusal or failure to collect any rent due upon such reletting, and no such refusal or failure shall operate to relieve Lessee of any liability under this Lease or otherwise to affect any such liability. Lessor, at Lessor’s option, may make such repairs, replacements, alterations, additions, improvements, decorations and other physical changes in and to the Demised Premises and the Improvements as Lessor, in its sole discretion, considers advisable or necessary in connection with any such reletting or proposed reletting, without relieving Lessee of any liability under this Lease or otherwise affecting any such liability.

Section 19.04 Late Charge. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee to Lessor of Net 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. Accordingly, if any installment of Net Rent or any other sum due from Lessee hereunder shall not be received by Lessor or Lessor’s designee within ten (10) days after such amount shall be due, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to the lesser of (i) $1,000 or (ii) five percent (5%) of such overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such a 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.

Section 19.05 Waiver of Rights. Lessee, for itself and for any and all persons claiming through or under Lessee, including its creditors, upon the termination of this Lease in accordance with the terms hereof, or in the event of entry of judgment for the recovery of the possession of the Demised Premises and the Improvements in any action or proceeding, or if Lessor shall enter the Demised Premises and the Improvements by process of law or otherwise, hereby waives any right of redemption provided or permitted by any statute, law or decision now or hereafter in force, and does hereby waive, surrender and give up all rights or privileges which it or they may or might have, under and by reason of any present or future law or decision, to redeem the Demised Premises and the Improvements or for a continuation of this Lease for the Term hereby demised after having been dispossessed or ejected therefrom by process of law.

Section 19.06 Receipt of Rent. No receipt of moneys by Lessor from Lessee after the termination hereof in any lawful manner shall reinstate, continue or extend the Term, or affect any notice theretofore given to Lessee, or operate as a waiver of the right of Lessor to enforce the payment of any Net Rent then due or thereafter falling due, or operate as a waiver of the right of Lessor to recover possession of the Demised Premises and the Improvements by proper suit, action, proceedings or other remedy; it being agreed that after the service of the Termination Notice as herein provided and the expiration of the time therein specified, after the commencement of any suit, action, proceedings or other remedy, or after a final order or judgment for possession of the Demised Premises and the Improvements, Lessor may demand, receive and collect any moneys due, or thereafter falling due, without in any manner affecting such notice, suit, action, proceedings, order or judgment; and any and all such moneys so collected shall be deemed to be payments on account of the use and occupation of the Demised Premises and the Improvements, or, at the election of Lessor, on account of Lessee’s liability hereunder.

Section 19.07 Lessor’s Remedies. If this Lease and the demised Term shall expire and come to an end as provided in this Article XIX or by or under any summary proceeding or any other action or proceeding, or if Lessor shall re-enter the Demised Premises as provided above, or by or under any summary proceeding or any other action or proceeding, then, in any of said events:

(a) Lessee shall pay to Lessor all Rent and other charges payable under this Lease by Lessee to Lessor to the date upon which this Lease and the demised Term shall have expired and come to an end or to the date of re-entry upon the Demised Premises by Lessor, as the case may be; and

(b) Lessee shall also be liable for and shall pay to Lessor, as damages, any deficiency (referred to as “Deficiency”) between the Net Rent and other amounts payable by Lessee under this Lease for the period which otherwise would have constituted the unexpired portion of the demised Term and the net amount, if any, of rents collected under any reletting effected pursuant to the provisions of Section 19.03 above, for any part of such period (first deducting from the rents collected under any such reletting all of Lessor’s expenses in connection with the termination of this Lease or Lessor’s re-entry upon the Demised Premises and the Improvements and with such reletting as follows: costs in repossessing the Demised Premises (including legal and court expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees, brokerage commissions, and expenses incurred making repairs to the Demised Premises which are Lessee’s responsibility under this Lease. Any such Deficiency shall be paid in monthly installments by Lessee on the days specified in this Lease for payment of installments of Net Rent. Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee each monthly Deficiency as the same shall arise, and no suit to collect the amount of Deficiency for any month shall prejudice Lessor’s right to collect the Deficiency for any subsequent month by a similar proceeding; and

(c) At any time after the demised Term shall have expired and come to an end or Lessor shall have re-entered upon the Demised Premises and the Improvements, as the case may be, whether or not Lessor shall have collected any monthly Deficiency as aforesaid, Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee, and Lessee shall pay to Lessor, on demand, as and for liquidated and agreed final damages, a sum equal to the amount by which the Net Rent and other amounts payable by Lessee under this Lease for the period which otherwise would have constituted the unexpired portion of the demised Term exceeds the then fair and reasonable rental value of the Demised Premises and the Improvements for the same period, both discounted to present worth at the rate of four (4%) percent per annum, less the aggregate amount of Deficiency theretofore collected by Lessor pursuant to the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section 19.07 for the same period. If, before presentation of proof of such liquidated damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the Demised Premises, the Improvements or any part thereof, shall have been relet by Lessor for the period which otherwise would have constituted the unexpired portion of the demised Term, or any part thereof, the amount of rent reserved upon such reletting shall be deemed, prime facie, to be the fair and reasonable rental value for the part or whole of the Demised Premises and the Improvements so relet during the term of reletting.

Section 19.08 Interest. Any Rent or damages payable under this Lease and not paid, and such payment remains unpaid for ten (10) days after notice thereof shall bear interest at the rate of twelve (12%) percent per annum (the “Interest Rate”), but in no event higher than the highest legal rate, from the due date until paid, and the interest shall be deemed Additional Rent.

Section 19.09 Remedies Not Exclusive. Lessor’s remedies provided in this Lease shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other rights and remedies available to Lessor at law or in equity or otherwise.

Section 19.10 Limitation of Remedies. Notwithstanding anything in this Article XIX to the contrary, (i) in no event may Lessor accelerate any of Lessee’s obligations under this Lease except in the event of a monetary default by Lessee beyond any applicable notice and cure period and (ii) in no event may Lessor lock Lessee out of the Demised Premises without first obtaining a court order.

ARTICLE XX

LESSOR’S RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULTS.

Section 20.01 Lessor’s Right to Cure. Whenever Lessee shall fail to comply with and perform any term, covenant, or condition of this Lease, then, following (a) ten (10) days prior written notice as to any monetary default; or (b) following thirty (30) days’ prior written notice as to other defaults; or (c) following shorter notice if reasonably necessary to meet an emergency situation or governmental time limitation, Lessor may perform, or cause to be performed, such term, covenant or condition, and take such other steps, including entry onto the Demised Premises and the Improvements, as it may deem advisable, to achieve such performance or compliance, in which event Lessee shall reimburse Lessor upon demand for all costs and expenses suffered or incurred by it in connection therewith, together with interest at the Interest Rate. Acting in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall not be deemed to obligate Lessor to commence or complete the curing of any term, covenant, or condition which is in default within said time limits or otherwise. Lessee hereby waives any claim and releases Lessor and Lessor’s agents, contractors and employees from all liability for damage occasioned by any action taken by Lessor pursuant to this Section. Such action by Lessor shall not constitute or be deemed a waiver or release of Lessee from any obligation of Lessee contained in this Lease or from any default by Lessee and without waiving Lessor’s right to take such action as may be permissible under this Lease as a result of such default. Any sum of money (other than Net Rent) accruing from Lessee to Lessor pursuant to this Section, may, at Lessor's option, be deemed Additional Rent, and Lessor shall have the same remedies as are available for Lessee's failure to pay any installment of Net Rent when due. Lessee's obligations under this Article shall survive the expiration of sooner termination of the Term.

ARTICLE XXI

SECURITY DEPOSIT

Section 21.01 Lessee shall deposit the sum of $20,980.13 (the “Security Deposit”) with Lessor upon the execution of this Lease in cash as security for the faithful performance and observance by Lessee of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, including the surrender of possession of the Demised Premises to Lessor as herein provided. It is understood and agreed that the amount of the Security Deposit shall at all times equal one (1) month of Net Rent, and upon any increase in the Net Rent payable under the terms of this Lease, Lessee shall immediately deposit such additional sums as are necessary to increase the amount of the Security Deposit so that it shall equal one (1) month of Net Rent. If Lessee defaults in the payment or performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease, including the payment of Rent and such default continues beyond the applicable notice and cure period, then Lessor may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the Security Deposit and use, apply, or retain the whole or any part of such proceeds, as the case may be, to the extent required for the payment of any Rent or any other sum as to which Lessee is in default, including (i) any sum which Lessor may expend or may be required to expend by reason of Lessee’s default, and (ii) any damages or Deficiency to which Lessor is entitled pursuant to this Lease or applicable law, whether such damages or Deficiency accrue before or after summary proceedings or other reentry by Lessor. If Lessor uses, applies or retains any part of the Security Deposit, Lessee, upon demand, shall deposit with Lessor the amount so applied or retained so that Lessor shall have the full Security Deposit on hand at all times during the Term. If Lessee shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, the Security Deposit (or so much thereof as remains) shall be returned to Lessee after the Expiration Date and after delivery of possession of the Demised Premises to Lessor in the manner required by this Lease. Lessee expressly agrees that Lessee shall have no right to apply any portion of the Security Deposit against any of Lessee’s obligations to pay Rent hereunder.

Section 21.02 Upon a sale or other transfer of the Demised Premises or any of Lessor’s interest therein, Lessor shall transfer the Security Deposit to the transferee. Lessee shall look solely to the new landlord for the return of such Security Deposit and the provisions of this Section shall apply to every transfer or assignment made of the Security Deposit to a new landlord. Lessee will not assign or encumber, or attempt to assign or encumber, the Security Deposit, and neither Lessor nor its successors or assigns shall be bound by any such actual or attempted assignment or encumbrance.

ARTICLE XXII

SURRENDER

Section 22.01 Except as is herein otherwise provided, Lessee shall on the last day of the Term or upon any earlier termination of this Lease, well and truly surrender and deliver up the Demised Premises and the Improvements to the possession and use of Lessor without fraud or delay and in good order, condition and repair, except for reasonable wear and tear and damage by casualty or condemnation expenses, free and clear of all lettings and occupancies other than subleases then terminable at the option of the Lessor thereof or subleases to which Lessor shall have specifically consented, and free and clear of all liens and encumbrances other than those, if any, presently existing or created or suffered by Lessor.

Section 22.02 Unless otherwise agreed by the parties hereto in a writing executed by both parties prior to the Expiration Date of this Lease, there shall be no holding over by Lessee after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and the failure by Lessee to deliver possession of the Demised Premises to Lessor shall be an unlawful holdover. During any period in which Lessee so holds over, at Lessor's option, the rental value of the Demised Premises, payable from the date immediately following the date on which Lessee was to deliver the Demised Premises through and including the last day of the calendar month in which Lessee so delivers the Demised Premises, shall be deemed to be equal to (i) one hundred fifty (150%) percent of the Net Rent payable immediately preceding the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and (ii) all other items of Additional Rent that would have been otherwise payable hereunder had this Lease not expired or been terminated. Acceptance by Lessor of any such rent during the period in which Lessee so holds over shall not cure or waive Lessee's default, nor prevent Lessor from exercising, before or after such acceptance, any of the remedies provided by this Lease or at law or in equity. Payment of any such rent and other sums during any period in which Lessee holds over shall not excuse Lessee's obligation to vacate and surrender the Demised Premises on the date, and in the manner and condition, required under this Lease. Lessee waives any rights it may have under applicable law in connection with any holdover proceedings that Lessor may institute against Lessee. If the Demised Premises are not surrendered upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease with respect to all or any portion of the Demised Premises, Lessee hereby indemnifies Lessor against loss, cost, injury, damage, claim, expense, or liability (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) resulting from delay by Lessee in so surrendering the same, including any claims made by any succeeding tenant or prospective tenant or prospective tenant founded upon such delay. Lessee's obligations under this Article shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.

Section 22.03 All appurtenances, fixtures, improvements, additions and other property attached to or built into the Demised Premises, whether by Lessor or Lessee or others, and whether at Lessor's expense, or Lessee's expense, or the joint expense of Lessor and Lessee, shall be and remain the property of Lessor, except that any such fixtures, improvements, additions and other property installed at the sole expense of Lessee with respect to which Lessee has not been granted any credit or allowance by Lessor, and which are removable without material damage to the Demised Premises may be removed by Lessee on condition that Lessee shall repair at its expense any damage to the Demised Premises or the Building resulting from such removal.

Section 22.04 Any personal property of Lessee or any sublessee which shall remain in the Improvements after the termination of this Lease and the removal of Lessee or such sublessee from the Improvements, may, at the option of Lessor, be deemed to have been abandoned by Lessee or such sublessee and either may be retained by Lessor as its property or be disposed of, without accountability, in such manner as Lessor may see fit, or if Lessor shall give written notice to Lessee to such effect, such property shall be removed by Lessee at Lessee’s sole cost and expense.

Section 22.05 The provisions of this Article shall survive any termination of this Lease.

ARTICLE XXIII

INTENTIONALLY OMITTED

ARTICLE XXIV

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 24.01 Force Majeure. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, neither Lessor nor Lessee shall be responsible for delays caused by acts of God, fire, earthquake, hurricane or tornado (or comparable adverse weather conditions of unusual severity, such as, by way of example, severe flooding), war, material shortages, strikes, embargoes, acts of the public enemy, riot, insurrection or civil disorder, or other reasons of a like nature which are beyond the reasonable control of Lessor or Lessee (collectively referred to herein as “Force Majeure”). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the financial inability of Lessor or Lessee to perform their respective obligations under this Lease shall not constitute an event of Force Majeure, nor shall any Force Majeure excuse Lessee’s obligation to pay Rent when due pursuant to this Lease.

Section 24.02 Intentionally Omitted.

Section 24.03 Waiver of Trial by Jury. To the extent permitted by law, Lessor and Lessee hereby waive trial by jury in any litigation brought by either of the parties hereto against the other on any matter in any way connected with this Lease.

Section 24.04 Payments of Money. In the event of nonpayment by Lessee of any sum of money whatsoever which is payable by Lessee under any provision of this Lease, Lessor shall have the same rights and remedies by reason of such nonpayment as if Lessee had failed to pay an installment of Net Rent.

Section 24.05 No Waiver of Rights. No failure by either party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Lease or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of such covenant, agreement, term or condition. No covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Lease to be performed or complied with by either party, and no breach thereof, shall be waived, altered or modified except by a written instrument executed by the non-defaulting party. No waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Lease, but each and every covenant, agreement, term and condition of this Lease shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach thereof.

Section 24.06 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. In addition to the remedies set forth in this Lease, Lessor and Lessee shall have the right to pursue any and all other remedies available at law or in equity, provided that in no event shall either party be liable for consequential, punitive or exemplary damages in connection with this Lease. All rights and remedies of Lessor and Lessee under this Lease or existing at law or in equity are cumulative, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies shall not be taken to exclude or waive the right to the exercise of any other.

Section 24.07 Transfer of Lessor’s Interest. In the event of a sale or conveyance by Lessor of Lessor’s interest in the Demised Premises, other than a transfer for security purposes only, Lessor shall be relieved, from and after the date specified in such notice of transfer, of all obligations and liabilities accruing thereafter on the part of the Lessor.
