      at
      Tenant's expense, promptly repair any damage to the Premises or Property caused
      by Tenant's entry and on-site inspections. IF

      sums payable by Tenant shall be over-due and unpaid or should payments be made
      by Landlord on behalf of Tenant, or should Tenant fail to perform any of the
      terms of this Lease, then Landlord may, at its option, appropriate and apply

      compensate toward the payment of the rents, charges or other sums due from
      Tenant, or towards any loss, damage or expense sustained by Landlord resulting
      from such default on the part of the Tenant; and in such event Tenant upon
      demand shall restore the security deposit to the amount set forth above in

    Landlord
      shall not be liable for injury to Tenant's business or loss of income there-from
      or for damage that may be sustained by the person, merchandise or personal
      property of Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees or contractors or any other
      person in or about the Premises, caused by or resulting from fire, steam,
      electricity, gas, water or rain, which may leak or flow from or into any part

      the Premises, or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of
      any
      utility installations, air conditioning system or other components of the
      Premises or the Property, except to the extent that such damage or loss is
      caused by Landlord's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Landlord makes
      no
      representations or warranties with respect to the heating, ventilation and
      air
      conditioning system(s) or utility installations existing as of the date hereof
      or in the future. Subject to the provisions of this paragraph 6, Landlord shall
      not be liable in damages or otherwise for any discontinuance, failure or
      interruption of service to the Premises of utilities or the heating, ventilation
      and air conditioning system(s) and Tenant shall have no right to terminate
      this
      Lease or withhold rental because of the same.

      a
      part of this Lease. Tenant agrees to comply with any Rules and Regulations
      of
      Landlord in connection with the Premises which are in effect at the time of
      the
      execution of the Lease or which may be from time to time promulgated by Landlord
      in its reasonable discretion, provided such Rules and Regulations are in writing
      and are not in conflict with the terms and conditions of the Lease. Landlord

      permitted use of the Premises shall
      be Professional
      Office
      Use
      Only

    ("Permitted
      Use"). The Premises shall be used and wholly occupied by Tenant solely for
      the
      purposes of conducting the Permitted Use, and the Premises shall not be used
      for
      any other purposes unless Tenant obtains Landlord's prior written approval
      of
      any change in use. Landlord makes no representation or warranty regarding the
      suitability of the Premises for or the legality (under zoning or other
      applicable ordinances) of the Permitted Use for the Premises, provided however,
      that Landlord does represent that it has no contractual obligations with other
      parties which will materially interfere with or prohibit the Permitted Use
      of
      Tenant at the Premises. At Tenant's sole expense, Tenant shall procure, maintain
      and make available for Landlord's inspection from time to time any governmental
      license(s) or permit(s) required for the proper and lawful conduct of Tenant's
      business in the Premises. Tenant shall not cause or permit any waste to occur
      in
      the Premises and shall not overload the floor, or any mechanical, electrical,
      plumbing or utility systems serving the Premises. Tenant shall keep the
      Premises, and every part thereof, in a clean and wholesome condition, free
      from
      any objectionable noises, loud music, objectionable odors or
      nuisances.

     

    TAXES,
      INSURANCE AND COMMON AREA AND PROPERTY OPERATING EXPENSES

    9.
      Landlord shall pay all taxes (including but not limited to, ad valorem taxes,
      special assessments and any other governmental charges) on the Property, shall
      procure and pay for such commercial general liability, broad form fire and
      extended and special perils insurance with respect to the Property as Landlord
      in its reasonable discretion may deem appropriate and shall maintain and operate
      the Common Areas and the Property. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its
      proportionate share of all taxes, insurance and Common Areas and Property
      operating expenses as provided herein within fifteen (15) days after receipt
      of
      notice from Landlord as to the amount due. Tenant shall be solely responsible
      for insuring Tenant's personal and business property and for paying any taxes
      or
      governmental assessments levied thereon. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for
      its
      proportionate share of taxes, insurance and Common Areas and Property operating
      expenses during the term of this Lease, and any extension or renewal thereof;
      as
      follows:

     

    Taxes

    o 
Its
      proportionate
      share of the amount by which all taxes (including but not limited to, ad valorem
      taxes, special assessments and any other governmental charges) on the Property
      for each tax year exceed all taxes on the Property for the tax year n/a _____________________; or

     

    o 
Its
      proportionate
      share of all taxes (including but not limited to, ad valorem taxes, special
      assessments and any other governmental charges) on the Property for each tax
      year.

     

    If
      the
      final Lease Year of the term fails to coincide with the tax year, then any
      excess for the tax year during which the term ends shall be reduced by the
      pro
      rata part of such tax year beyond the Lease term. If such taxes for the year
      in
      which the Lease terminates are not ascertainable before payment of the last
      month's rental, then the amount of such taxes assessed against the Property
      for
      the previous tax year shall be used as a basis for determining the pro rata
      share, if any, to be paid by Tenant for that portion of the last Lease
      Year.

     

    
      	
              o

            	
              If
                this box is checked, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its proportionate
                share of taxes by paying to Landlord, beginning on the Rent Commencement
                Date and on the first day of each calendar month during the term
                hereof,
                an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of its proportionate share
                of the
                then current tax payments for the Property. Upon receipt of bills,
                statements or other evidence of taxes due, Landlord shall pay or
                cause to
                be paid the taxes. If at any time the reimbursement payments by Tenant
                hereunder do not equal its proportionate share of the amount of taxes
                paid
                by Landlord, Tenant shall upon demand pay to Landlord an amount equal
                to
                the deficiency or Landlord shall refund to Tenant any overpayment
                (as
                applicable) as

    documented
      by Landlord. Landlord shall have no obligation to segregate or otherwise account
      for the tax reimbursements paid hereunder except as provided in this paragraph
      9.

     

    Insurance

    o 
Its
      proportionate
      share of the excess cost of commercial general liability, broad form fire and
      extended and special perils insurance with respect to the Property over the
      cost
      of the first year of the Lease term for each subsequent year during the term
      of
      this Lease; or

     

    q
Its
      proportionate share of the cost of all commercial general liability,
      broad form fire and extended and special perils insurance with respect to the
      Property.

     

    Provided,
      however, that in the event Tenant's use of the Premises results in an increase
      in the rate of insurance on the Property, Tenant also shall pay to Landlord,
      upon demand and as additional rental, the amount of any such
      increase.

     

    
      	
              o

            	
              If
                this box is checked, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its proportionate
                share of insurance by paying to Landlord, beginning on the Rent
                Commencement Date and on the first day of each calendar month during
                the
                term hereof, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of its proportionate
                share of the then current insurance premiums for the Property. Upon
                receipt of bills, statements or other evidence of insurance premiums
                due,
                Landlord shall pay or cause to be paid the insurance premiums. If
                at any
                time the reimbursement payments by Tenant hereunder do not equal
                its
                proportionate share of the amount of insurance premiums paid by Landlord,
                Tenant shall upon demand pay to Landlord an amount equal to the deficiency
                or Landlord shall refund to Tenant any overpayment (as applicable)
                as
                documented by Landlord. Landlord shall have no obligation to segregate
                or
                otherwise account for the insurance premium reimbursements paid hereunder
                except as provided in this paragraph
                9.

            


    

     

    Common
      Areas and Property Operating Expenses

              If
                this box is checked, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its proportionate
                share of Common Areas and Property operating expenses by paying to
                Landlord, beginning on the Rent Commencement Date and on the first

                Property operating expenses for the Premises. Landlord shall pay
                or cause

                one
                hundred eighty (180) days following the end of each calendar year,
                Landlord shall: (i) cause a statement to be prepared of the actual
                cost of
                Common Areas and Property operating expenses for such calendar year
                and
                shall notiy Tenant of any overpayment or underpayment of Tenant's
                proportionate share of these items during such prior calendar year;
                and,
                (ii) establish an estimate of the cost of Common Areas and Property

                the
                preceding calendar year, such overage shall be credited to Tenant's
                proportionate share of these items for the current calendar year.
                To the
                extent Tenant has underpaid Tenant's proportionate share of these

      on
      the first day of the calendar month following receipt of the statement from
      Landlord setting forth the amount of such underpayment, pay to Landlord the
      full

      beginning on the first day of the calendar month following the date upon which
      Landlord shall have delivered to Tenant the statement for the estimated Common
      Areas and Property operating expenses for the then current calendar year, Tenant
      shall pay to Landlord the product of one-twelfth (1/12) of Tenant's
      proportionate share of the estimated Common Areas and Property operating
      expenses for the then current calendar year multiplied by the number of calendar
      months in the calendar year which shall have begun as of said first day, minus
      the aggregate amount
      of the monthly payments for Tenant's proportionate share of expenses
      theretofore paid by Tenant during such calendar year. The remainder of Tenant's
      proportionate share of such expenses for the then current calendar year shall
      be
      paid by Tenant to Landlord on the first day of each succeeding month in equal
      consecutive monthly installments of one-twelfth (1/12) of the total amount
      of
      Tenant's proportionate share of Common Areas and Property operating expenses
      as
      shown on the estimate thereof provided by Landlord. Landlord shall have no
      obligation to segregate or otherwise account for the insurance premium
      reimbursements paid hereunder except as provided in this paragraph
      9.

     

    For
      purposes of this paragraph 9,
      "Tenant's proportionate share" shall mean (check
      one):

     

    o n/a____________________ %

      or

     

    q 
      None-
      Tenant shall have no responsibility to reimburse Landlord for taxes, insurance
      or Common Areas and Property operating expenses.

     

    INSURANCE;
      WAIVER; INDEMNITY

    10.(a)
      During the term of this Lease, Tenant shall maintain commercial general
      liability insurance coverage (occurrence coverage) with
      broad form contractual liability
      coverage and with coverage limits of not less than 1,000,000.00
      combined
      single limit, per occurrence, specifically including liquor liability
      insurance covering consumption of alcoholic beverages by customers of
      Tenant should Tenant choose to sell alcoholic beverages. Such policy shall
      insure Tenant's performance of the indemnity provisions of this Lease, but
      the
      amount of such insurance shall not limit Tenant's liability nor relieve Tenant
      of any obligation hereunder. All policies of insurance provided for herein
      shall
      name as "additional insureds" Landlord, Landlord's Agent, all mortgagees of
      Landlord and such other individuals or entities as Landlord may from time to
      time designate upon written notice to Tenant. Tenant shall provide to Landlord,
      at least thirty (30) days prior to expiration, certificates of insurance to
      evidence any renewal or additional insurance procured by Tenant. Tenant shall
      provide evidence of all insurance required under this Lease to Landlord prior
      to
      the Lease Commencement Date.

     

        (b)  Landlord
      (for itself and its insurer) waives any rights, including rights of subrogation,
      and Tenant (for itself and its insurer) waives any rights, including rights
      of
      subrogation, each may have against the other for compensation of any loss or
      damage occasioned to Landlord or Tenant arising from any risk generally covered
      by the "all risks" insurance required to be carried by Landlord and Tenant.
      The
      foregoing waivers of subrogation shall be operative only so long as available
      in
      the State of North Carolina. The foregoing waivers shall be effective whether
      or
      not the parties maintain the insurance required to be carried pursuant to this
      Lease.

     

        (c)  Except
      as
      otherwise provided in paragraph 10(b), Tenant indemnifies Landlord for damages
      proximately caused by the negligence or wrongful conduct of Tenant and Tenant's
      employees, agents, invitees or contractors. Except as otherwise provided in
      paragraph 10(b), Landlord indemnifies Tenant for damages proximately caused
      by
      the negligence or wrongful conduct of Landlord and Landlord's employees, agents,
      invitees or contractors. The indemnity provisions in this paragraph 10 cover
      personal injury and property damage and shall bind the employees, agents,
      invitees or contractors of Landlord and Tenant (as the case may be). The
      indemnity obligations in this paragraph 10 shall survive the expiration or
      earlier termination of this Lease.

     

    REPAIRS
      BY LANDLORD

    11.
      Landlord agrees to keep in good repair the roof, foundation, structural
      supports, exterior walls (exclusive of all glass and exclusive of all exterior
      doors) and the Common Areas of the Property, except repairs rendered necessary
      by the negligence or intentional wrongful acts of Tenant, its employees, agents,
      invitees or contractors. Tenant shall promptly report in writing to Landlord
      any
      defective condition known to it which Landlord is required to repair and failure
      to report such conditions shall make Tenant responsible to Landlord for any
      liability incurred by Landlord by reason of such conditions.

     

    REPAIRS
      BY TENANT

     12.
      (a) Tenant accepts the Premises in
      their present condition and as suited for the Permitted Use and Tenant's
      intended purposes. Tenant,
      throughout the initial term of this Lease, and any extension or renewal thereof,
      at its expense, shall maintain in good order and repair the Premises,
      except those
      repairs expressly required to be made by Landlord hereunder. Tenant shall use
      only licensed contractors for repairs where such
      license is

      repairs in excess of $ 100.00

     

        (b)
      Tenant
      agrees to return the Premises to Landlord at the expiration or prior termination
      of this Lease, in as good condition and repair as on the Lease Commencement
      Date, natural wear and tear, damage by storm, fire, lightning, earthquake or

      which may void any manufacturers or installers warranty with relation to the
      Premises or the Property. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless
      from

    If
      this
      box is checked, there is heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment
      exclusively serving the Premises. Tenant, at its expense, shall maintain in
      good
      order and repair, including but not limited to replacement of parts,
      compressors, air handling units and heating units; provided that, as to repair
      or replacement expenses for heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment
      in excessof
$
n/a
(per
      occurrence) or $
n/a
      (annually), Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the amount
      in

     

    excess
      of
      the stated amount, provided that Tenant has obtained Landlord's prior written
      approval of the contractor and the repair or replacement.

     

    ALTERATIONS

    13.  Tenant
      shall not make any alterations, additions, or improvements to the Premises
      without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
      unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant shall promptly remove
      any
      alterations, additions, or improvements constructed in violation of this
      paragraph 13 upon Landlord's written request. All approved alterations,
      additions, and improvements will be accomplished in a good and workmanlike
      manner, in conformity with all applicable laws and regulations, and by a
      contractor approved by Landlord, free of any liens or encumbrances. Landlord
      may
      require Tenant to remove any alterations, additions or improvements (whether
      or
      not made with Landlord's consent) at the termination of the Lease and to restore
      the Premises to its prior condition, all at Tenant's expense. All alterations,
      additions and improvements which Landlord has not required Tenant to remove
      shall become Landlord's property and shall be surrendered to Landlord upon
      the
      termination of this Lease, except that Tenant may remove any of Tenant's
      machinery, equipment or trade fixtures which can be removed without material
      damage to the Premises or the Property. Tenant shall repair, at Tenant's
      expense, any damage to the Premises or the Property caused by the removal of
      any
      such machinery, equipment or trade fixtures.

     

    DESTRUCTION
      OF OR DAMAGE TO PREMISES

    14.  (a)
      If
      the Premises are totally destroyed by storm, fire, lightning, earthquake or
      other casualty , Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease on
      written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such destruction and
      this
      Lease shall terminate as of the date of such destruction and rental shall be
      accounted for as between Landlord and Tenant as of that date.

     

        (b)  If
      the
      Premises are damaged but not wholly destroyed by any such casualties or if
      the
      Landlord does not elect to terminate the Lease under paragraph 14(a) above,
      Landlord shall commence (or shall cause to be commenced) reconstruction of
      the
      Premises within one hundred twenty (120) days after such occurrence and
      prosecute the same diligently to completion, not to exceed two hundred seventy
      (270) days from the date upon which Landlord receives applicable permits and
      insurance proceeds. In the event Landlord shall fail to substantially complete
      reconstruction of the Premises within said two hundred seventy (270) day period,
      Tenant's sole remedy shall be to terminate this Lease.

     

        (c)  In
      the
      event of any casualty at the Premises during the last one (1) year of the Lease
      Term, Landlord and Tenant each shall have the option to terminate this Lease
      on
      written notice to the other of exercise thereof within sixty (60) days after
      such occurrence.

     

        (d)  In
      the
      event of reconstruction of the Premises, Tenant shall continue the operation
      of
      its business in the Premises during any such period to the extent reasonably
      practicable from the standpoint of prudent business management, and the
      obligation of Tenant to pay annual rental and any other sums due under this
      Lease shall remain in full force and effect during the period of reconstruction.
      The annual rental and other sums due under this Lease shall be abated
      proportionately with the degree to which Tenant's use of the Premises is
      impaired, commencing from the date of destruction and continuing during the
      period of such reconstruction. Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation
      or damages from Landlord for loss of use of the whole or any part of the
      Premises, Tenant's personal property, or any inconvenience or annoyance
      occasioned by such damage, reconstruction or replacement.

     

        (e)  In
      the
      event of the termination of this Lease under any of the provisions of this
      paragraph 14, both Landlord and Tenant shall be released from any liability
      or
      obligation under this Lease arising after the date of termination, except as
      otherwise provided for in this Lease.

     

    GOVERNMENTAL
      ORDERS

    15.
Tenant,
      at its own expense, agrees to comply with: (a) any law, statute, ordinance,
      regulation, rule, requirement, order, court decision or procedural requirement
      of any governmental or quasi-governmental authority having jurisdiction over
      the
      Premises; (b) the rules and regulations of any applicable governmental insurance
      authority or any similar body, relative to the Premises and Tenant's activities
      therein; (c) provisions of or rules enacted pursuant to any private use
      restrictions, as the same may be amended from time to time and (d) the Americans
      with Disabilities Act (42 U.S.C. S. § 12101, et seq.) and the regulations and
      accessibility guidelines enacted pursuant thereto, as the same may be amended
      from time to time. Landlord and Tenant agree, however, that if in order to
      comply with such requirements the cost to Tenant shall exceed a sum equal to
      one
      (1) year's rent, then Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving written notice
      of termination to Landlord in accordance with the terms of this Lease, which
      termination shall become effective sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice
      and which notice shall eliminate the necessity of compliance with such
      requirements, unless, within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice, Landlord
      agrees in writing to be responsible for such compliance, at its own expense,
      and
      commences compliance activity, in which case Tenant's notice given hereunder
      shall not terminate this Lease.

      shall place no signs upon the outside walls, doors or roof of the Premises
      or
      anywhere on the Property, except with the express written consent of the
      Landlord in Landlord's sole discretion. Any consent given by Landlord shall
      expressly not be a representation of or warranty of any legal entitlement to
      signage at the Premises or on the Property. Any and all signs placed on the
      Premises or the Property by Tenant shall be maintained in compliance with
      governmental rules and regulations governing such signs and Tenant shall be
      responsible to Landlord for any damage caused by installation, use or
      maintenance of said signs, and all damage incident to removal
      thereof.

      ENTRY OF PREMISES

    21.  Landlord
      may advertise the Premises "For Rent" or "For Sale" 60  days

      business purposes and otherwise as may be agreed by Landlord and Tenant.

      the
      Premises, either after their use by Tenant or upon the expiration or earlier
      termination of this Lease, in compliance with all Hazardous Materials
      Requirements.

      its
      use, storage and disposal ofHazardous Materials, and shall develop and maintain,
      and where necessary file with the appropriate authorities, all reports,

      from
      and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, penalties,
      fines, costs, expenses and claims of any and every kind whatsoever (including
      attorney's fees and costs) paid, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against

      the
      Premises or the Property of any Hazardous Materials caused by Tenant or Tenant's
      employees, agents, invitees or contractors. This indemnity shall also apply
      to
      any release of Hazardous Materials caused by a
      fire or other casualty to the Premises if such Hazardous Materials
      were stored on the Premises or the Property
      by Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees or successors in
      interest.

    25.
      (a)
      This Lease and all of Tenant's rights hereunder are and shall be subject and
      subordinate to all currently existing and future mortgages affecting the
      Premises. Within ten (10) days after the receipt of a written request from
      Landlord or any Landlord mortgagee, Tenant shall confirm such subordination
      by
      executing and delivering Landlord and Landlord's mortgagee a recordable
      subordination agreement and such other documents as may be reasonably requested,
      in form and content satisfactory to Landlord and Landlord's mortgagee. Provided,
      however, as a condition to Tenant's obligation to execute and deliver any such
      subordination agreement, the applicable mortgagee must agree that mortgagee
      shall not unilaterally, materially alter this Lease and this Lease shall not
      be
      divested by foreclosure or other default proceedings thereunder so long as
      Tenant shall not be in default under the terms of this Lease beyond any
      applicable cure period set forth herein. Tenant acknowledges that any Landlord
      mortgagee has the right to subordinate at any time its interest in this Lease
      and the leasehold estate to that of Tenant, without Tenant's
      consent.

     

        (b)  If
      Landlord sells, transfers, or conveys its interest in the Premises or this
      Lease, or if the same is foreclosed judicially or nonjudicially, or otherwise
      acquired, by a Landlord mortgagee, upon the request of Landlord or Landlord's
      successor, Tenant shall attorn to said successor, provided said successor
      accepts the Premises subject to this Lease. Tenant shall, upon the request
      of
      Landlord or Landlord's successor, execute an attornment agreement confirming
      the
      same, in form and substance acceptable to Landlord or Landlord's successor
      and
      Landlord shall thereupon be released and discharged from all its covenants
      and
      obligations under this Lease, except those obligations that have accrued prior
      to such sale, transfer or conveyance; and Tenant agrees to look solely to the
      successor in interest of Landlord for the performance of those covenants
      accruing after such sale, transfer or conveyance. Such agreement shall provide,
      among other things, that said successor shall not be bound by (a) any prepayment
      of more than one (1) month's rental (except the Security Deposit) or (b) any
      material amendment of this Lease made after the later of the Lease Commencement
      Date or the date that such successor's lien or interest first arose, unless
      said
      successor shall have consented to such amendment.

     

        (c)  Within
      ten (10) days after request from Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver
      to
      Landlord an estoppel certificate (to be prepared by Landlord and delivered
      to
      Tenant) with appropriate facts then in existence concerning the status of this
      Lease and Tenant's occupancy, and with any exceptions thereto noted in writing
      by Tenant. Tenant's failure to execute and deliver the Estoppel Certificate
      within said ten (10) day period shall be deemed to make conclusive and binding
      upon Tenant in favor of Landlord and any potential mortgagee or transferee
      the
      statements contained in such estoppel certificate without
      exception.

     

    ABANDONMENT

    26.
      Tenant shall not abandon the Premises at any time during the Lease term. If
      Tenant shall abandon the Premises or be dispossessed by process of law, any
      personal property belonging to Tenant and left on the Premises, at the option
      of
      Landlord, shall be deemed abandoned, and available to Landlord to use or sell
      to
      offset any rent due or any expenses incurred by removing same and restoring
      the
      Premises.

     

    NOTICES

    27.  All
      notices required or permitted under this Lease shall be in writing and shall
      be
      personally delivered or sent by U.S. certified mail, return receipt requested,
      postage prepaid. Notices to Tenant shall be delivered or sent to the address
      shown at the beginning of this Lease, except that upon Tenant taking possession
      of the Premises, then the Premises shall be Tenant's address for such purposes.
      Notices to Landlord shall be delivered or sent to the address shown at the
