sublettings shall not operate as a waiver of Landlord's rights as to any
subsequent assignments and sublettings. In the event of the transfer and
assignment by Landlord of its interest in this Lease and/or sale of the Building
containing the Premises, Landlord shall thereby be released from any further
obligations hereunder, and Tenant agrees to look solely to such successor in

demand, in the form(s) prescribed by Landlord, execute any instruments, estoppel
certificates, releases or other documents that may be requested or required by
any holder of any superior interest for the purposes of subjecting and
subordinating this Lease to the lien of any such deed of trust, master lease,

instrument of document for Tenant should Tenant fail or refuse to do so.

agreements and conditions of this Lease, including the payment of Rental and all
other sums due hereunder, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly hold and enjoy the

24. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Tenant, concurrently with the execution of this Lease,
has deposited with the Landlord a Security Deposit as described in Item 1,
Section (h), the receipt of which is thereby acknowledged, which sum shall be
retained by Landlord as a Security Deposit. The Security Deposit shall be held
by Landlord without liability for interest and as security for the performance
by Tenant of Tenant's covenants and obligations under this Lease, it being
expressly understood that such deposit shall not be considered an advance
payment of Rent or Additional Rent, or a measure of Landlord's damages in case
of default by Tenant. Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant,
Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy, use such
deposit to the extent necessary to make good any arrearages of Rent, Additional
Rent and any other damage, injury, expense of liability caused to Landlord by
such event of default. Following any such application of the Security Deposit,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand, the amount so applied in order to
restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. If Tenant is not then in
default hereunder, any remaining balance of such deposit shall be returned by
Landlord to Tenant upon expiration of this Lease. If Landlord transfers its
ownership interest in the Building during the Lease term, Landlord may assign
the Security Deposit to the transferee and thereafter Landlord shall have no
further liability for the return of such Security Deposit.
25. MECHANICS' LIENS. Tenant is prohibited from, and agrees not to, make
alterations in the premises, and Tenant will not permit any mechanics' lien or
liens to be placed upon the Premises or the Building or improvements thereon
during the term hereof caused by or resulting from any work performed, materials
furnished or obligation incurred by or at the request of Tenant, and in the case

thereof shall continue for ten (10) days after written notice thereof from
Landlord to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right and privilege at Landlord's
option of paying the same or any portion thereof without inquiry as to the
validity thereof, and any amounts so paid, including expenses and interest,

and shall be repaid to Landlord immediately on rendition of a xxxx thereof,
together with interest per annum at the maximum rate permitted by law until

27. FORCE MAJEURE. Whenever a period of time is herein prescribed for action
to be taken by Landlord, Landlord shall not be liable or responsible for, and
there shall be excluded from the computation for any such period of time, any
delays due to strikes, riot, acts of God, shortages or labor or materials,
theft, fire, public enemy, injunction, insurrection, court order, requisition of
other governmental body or authority, war, governmental laws, regulations or
restrictions or any other causes of any kind whatsoever which are beyond the
control of Landlord.
28. SEPARABILITY. If any clause or provision of this Lease is illegal, invalid
or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this
Lease, then and in that event, it is the intention of the parties hereto that
the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby.
29. HOLDING OVER. The failure of Tenant to surrender the Premises on the date
provided herein for the termination of the term of this Lease (or at the time
the Lease may be terminated otherwise by Landlord), and the subsequent holding
over by Tenant, with or without the consent of Landlord, shall result in the
creation of a tenancy at will at 150% the Rental payable at the time of the date
provided herein for the termination of this Lease. This provision does not give
Tenant any right to hold over at the expiration of the term of this Lease, and
shall not be deemed, the parties agree, to be a renewal of the Lease term,
either by operation of law of otherwise.
30. RELOCATION. (intentionally omitted)
31. RENT A SEPARATE COVENANT. Tenant shall not for any reason withhold or
reduce Tenant's required payments of rentals and other charges provided in this
Lease, it being agreed that the obligations of Landlord hereunder are
independent of Tenant's obligations. In this regard it is specifically
understood and agreed that in the event Landlord commences any proceeding
against Tenant for non-payments of rentals or any other such sum due and payable
by Tenant hereunder, Tenant will not interpose any counterclaim or other claim
against Landlord of whatever nature or description in any such proceedings
(except as required by Florida law); and in the event that Tenant interposes any
such counterclaim or other claim against Landlord in such proceedings, Landlord
and Tenant stipulate and agree that, in addition to any other lawful remedy of
Landlord, upon motion of Landlord, such counterclaim or other claim asserted by
Tenant shall be severed out of the proceedings instituted by Landlord and the
proceedings instituted by Landlord may proceed to final judgment separately and
apart from and without consolidation with or reference to the status of such
counterclaim or any other claim asserted by Tenant.
32. JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. If two or more individuals, corporation,
partnerships, or other business associations (or any combination of two or more
thereof) shall sign this Lease as Tenant, the liability of each such individual,
corporation, partnership or other business association to pay rent and perform
all other obligations hereunder shall be deemed to be joint and several. In like
manner, if the Tenant named in this Lease shall be a partnership or other
business association, the members of which are, be virtue of statute or general
law, subject to personal liability, the liability of each such member shall be
joint and several.

33. ABSENCE OF OPTION. The submission of this Lease for examination does not
constitute a reservation of or option for the Premises, and this Lease becomes
effective only upon execution and delivery thereof by Landlord.
34. BROKERAGE COMMISSION. Tenant warrants that there are no claims for
broker's commissions or finder's fees in connection with its execution of this
Lease and agrees to indemnify and save Landlord harmless from any liability that
may arise from such claim, including reasonable attorney's fees.
35. CORPORATE TENANCY. If Tenant is a corporation, the undersigned office of
Tenant hereby warrants and certifies to Landlord that Tenant is a corporation in
good standing and is authorized to do business in the State of Florida. The
undersigned officer of Tenant hereby further warrants and certifies to Landlord
that he or she, as such officer, is authorized and empowered to bind the
corporation to the terms of this Lease by his or her signature hereto.
36. STATUTORILY MANDATED NOTIFICATION. As required by F.S. 404.056 (8),
Landlord notifies Tenant as follows: "RADON GAS: Radon is a naturally occurring
radioactive gas that, when it has accumulated in a building in sufficient
quantities, may present health risks to persons who are exposed to it over time.
Levels of radon that exceed federal and state guidelines have been found in
buildings in Florida. Additional information regarding radon and radon testing
may be obtained from your county public health unit."
37. ADDITIONAL ITEMS. Landlord reserves the right to establish an "after
hours" usage charge (not to exceed $15 per hour) for HVAC operation at any time
in the future that Landlord perceives an abuse of the no charge scenario. The
building operating hours are 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM weekdays and 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM on
Saturday.
