be abated until the Premises can reasonably be used or are used for the conduct
of Tenant’s business.”

 

23. The first sentence of Section 7 is hereby amended to delete “Project” and
substitute “Premises” therefor.

 

24. The following provision is hereby inserted as Section 11.2:

 

“11.2 Except to the extent attributable to the negligence (whether through act
or omission) or deliberate act of Tenant, its employees or agents, and subject
to the provisions of Section 13 herein, Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant
and the employees and agents of Tenant (hereafter referred to as the “Tenant
Indemnified Parties” and individually as a “Tenant Indemnified Party”) harmless
from and against any and all demands, claims, causes of action,

(including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred in
connection with loss of life, personal injury or property damage on the Premises
caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any employee,
agent, invitee or licensee of Landlord. If any action or proceeding for which

reasonably satisfactory to Tenant.”

“(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 18,
Tenant shall not be responsible for remediating any Hazardous Substances,
releases or conditions which come to exist on or at the Premises during the term
of this Lease as a result of a condition or event which occurred outside the
Premises unless caused by the acts or omissions of Tenant or Tenant’s agents.”

 

28. Sections 19(a) and (b) of the Lease are deleted in their entirety and the
following are substituted therefor:

 

“(a) If the Premises is destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant
shall promptly notify Landlord thereof in writing (“Tenant’s Notice”). If
Landlord reasonably anticipates that completion of restoration will take more
than one hundred twenty (120) working days from the date of Landlord’s receipt
of Tenant’s Notice, Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of
Tenant’s Notice, notify Tenant in writing (“Landlord’s Notice”) of the time
required for completion of restoration; in such event either Landlord or Tenant
may terminate this Lease by written notice to the other party within ten (10)
days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Notice. Any such termination shall be
effective as of the date of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Notice. If Landlord’s
Notice is not required to be given or if neither Landlord nor Tenant elects to
terminate this Lease as aforesaid, this Lease shall not terminate and Landlord
shall at its sole cost and expense proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild
or repair the Premises to substantially the same condition existing prior to the
damage; provided, however, Landlord shall have no obligation to restore or
repair any alterations or improvements made by either Landlord or Tenant to the
Premises at Tenant’s cost beyond the Tenant Improvements. If the Premises is to
be rebuilt or repaired and is untenantable in whole or in part following the
damage, the Base Rent and the Additional Rent payable under this Lease during
the period for

 

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

which the Premises is untenantable shall be abated to the extent the Premises is
untenantable, such abatement to be in the proportion that the number of square
feet of the Building rendered untenantable bears to the total number of square
feet in the Building.

 

(b) In the event Landlord fails to substantially complete the necessary repairs
or rebuilding on or before the later of (i) one hundred twenty (120) working
days from the date of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Notice, or (ii) the length
of time set forth in Landlord’s Notice (the times set forth in both (i) and (ii)
being subject to extension for the reasons set forth in Section 19(c) below),
Tenant may terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to
Landlord; provided, however, if the necessary repairs or rebuilding are
substantially completed during such thirty (30) day period, Tenant’s notice of
termination shall be null and void and this Lease shall remain in full force and
effect. Landlord and Tenant agree that any extension of time for substantial
completion of restoration or rebuilding pursuant to Section 19(c) below shall
not exceed two hundred seventy (270) days unless due to delays caused by Tenant
or its agents.”

 

29. The following provision is hereby added at the beginning of Section 20:
“Except to the extent caused by grossly negligent or willful acts or omissions
of Landlord or its employees or agents”.

 

30. Section 22(b) is hereby amended by changing “6 months” to “9 months” and by
deleting “(except in case of an emergency)”.

Lease to an affiliate (i.e., an entity 50% or more of whose ownership interest
is owned by the same owners (or affiliates) owning 50% or more of Tenant’s
capital stock), parent or subsidiary of Tenant or to an entity to which it sells
or assigns all or substantially all of its assets or stock or with which it may
be consolidated or merged (“Affiliate”), provided such purchasing, consolidated,
merged, affiliated or subsidiary entity shall, in writing, assume and agree to
perform all of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease, shall have a net
worth at least equal to that of Tenant as of the execution of the Lease and as
of the date of such assignment, and it shall deliver such assumption with a copy
of such assignment to Landlord within ten (10) days thereafter.”

 

32. Section 26(d) is hereby amended to delete the words “or the Project”.

 

33. The following provision is hereby added as Section 27(e):

 

“(e) Landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to relet the
Premises in order to mitigate its damages, but Landlord shall not be required to
prefer the Premises over other buildings owned by Landlord or its affiliates in
the geographic area in which the Premises is located.”

 

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

34. Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that as of the date hereof, no
mortgage or ground lease affects or encumbers the Premises, except for a
mortgage dated November 15, 2002 in favor of ING Life Insurance and Annuity
Company and Security Life of Denver Insurance Company.

 

35. Section 35 of the Lease is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:
