(a)
Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord approximately twenty-five thousand seven hundred ninety-five
(25,795) rentable square feet located on and comprising a portion of the second floor (the “Premises”,
as more particularly shown on the space plan depicted on Exhibit A annexed hereto, hereinafter the (“Space Plan”))
of the building (the “Building”) known as and located at 711 Stewart Avenue, Garden City, New York,
upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Lease to be performed by each party. The Premises shall
not include any portion of the “Common Elements” (hereafter defined) of the Building or shall not include
any “General Common Elements” (hereafter defined) or Common Elements appurtenant to any unit in the
Condominium (hereafter defined), however Tenant shall have use of the Common Elements and General Common Elements as defined in
the Condominium Documents (as hereafter defined).


 


(b)
Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord’s predecessor has converted the Building (in which the Premises is a part)
to a condominium form of ownership (“Condominium”) and the Building constitutes a separate condominium
unit (defined hereafter as the “Office Building Unit”). Tenant acknowledges receipt of that certain
“No-Action Letter” (hereafter defined) issued by the New York State Department of Law on July 13, 2012
as File No. NA12-0095, and that certain Declaration of Condominium (the “Declaration”), as the same
may be amended from time to time, which has been recorded with the Nassau County Clerk’s Office on March 26, 2013 (at Liber
12928, page 910) in accordance with the provisions of Article 9-B of the Real Property Law of the State of New York (the “Condominium
Act”) and the by-laws adopted by the Condominium. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that this Lease and all rights
of Tenant hereunder are and shall otherwise be subject and subordinate in all respects to the provisions of the Declaration, the
by-laws, the rules and regulations of the Condominium and all other documents pursuant to which the Condominium was established
and operates (collectively, the “Condominium Documents”).


 


Subject
to the payment of “Rent” (hereafter defined) and other sums reserved in this Lease, Landlord hereby
grants to Tenant the non-exclusive right to use, with all other tenants and occupants of the Building, their subtenants, licensees
and invitees, subject to this Lease and the Condominium Documents, those areas of the Building (“General Common Elements”),
that may be used in common with any unit owners of individual Units which comprise a portion of the Office Building Unit, those
areas of the Building which the Premises are located that are allocated to a unit (“Unit Common Elements”;
the General Common Elements and the Unit Common Elements are collectively referred to as the “Common Elements”).


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


1.1
Permits; Landlord’s Work; Tenant Improvement Allowance.


 


1.1.1
Landlord will perform the build-out of the Premises (“Landlord’s Work”) using Building Standard
materials and substantially in accordance with the work letter attached hereto as Exhibit B. Landlord reserves the right to make
certain changes to the Space Plan without Tenant’s prior approval, provided such changes are required by applicable building
codes and do not (i) materially reduce the square feet area of the Premises, or (ii) materially affect the design, appearance
or quality of the Building, or the Premises. Tenant shall be responsible for all costs, including, but not limited to, any contractor
fees, architect fees, permit fees and cost of materials, resulting from any change orders to the Space Plan implemented by Tenant.
Landlord’s Work shall be deemed approved by Tenant in all respects unless Tenant, within 30 days after the Commencement
Date, notifies Landlord of specific items which are not completed or do not conform to Exhibit B and Exhibit B-1 (“Tenant’s
Punchlist”). Upon receipt of Tenant’s Punchlist, Landlord will use reasonable efforts to prosecute to completion
the items set forth on Tenant’s Punchlist within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s Punchlist, or if any such
item is not reasonably able to be completed within thirty (30) days, then Landlord shall have commenced to complete the same within
such thirty (30) day period and thereafter shall diligently and continuously prosecute the same to completion. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord agrees to repair any latent defects resulting from Landlord’s Work so
long as such latent defects are discovered by Tenant within six (6) months following the Commencement Date. If such latent defects
are discovered and notice specifically detailing the defect, the characteristics thereof and the reason same could not have been
previously discovered is received by Landlord within six (6) months following the Commencement Date, Landlord shall commence repair
of the same, at its sole expense, within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice and thereafter
prosecute completion of the same.


 


1.1.2
Prior to the Commencement Date and promptly after building permits have been obtained, Landlord shall perform Landlord’s
Work. Landlord shall obtain any and all necessary certificates of occupancy, completion and compliance with respect to all Landlord’s
Work.


 


1.1.3
For the purpose hereof, the terms “Substantially Complete” and “Substantial Completion”
shall mean the substantial completion of Landlord’s Work in accordance with the Exhibit B notwithstanding the fact that
minor or unsubstantial details of construction, fit, finish, and mechanical adjustment or decoration remain to be completed, the
non-completion of which would not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises for the Permitted Use. Landlord
shall not be responsible for any delay in the completion of Landlord’s Work arising from Tenant Delay (hereinafter defined)
or Force Majeure Delay (hereinafter defined) or Tenant’s Cabling Work (hereinafter defined).


 


1.1.4
At least fifteen (15) days prior to the Commencement Date, Landlord shall provide Tenant with access to the Premises to permit
Tenant to install Tenant’s high-speed data network and telecommunication/data cabling throughout the Premises and to perform
tests on such installation (“Tenant’s Cabling Work”), as well as installation of Tenant’s
equipment in the laboratory rooms within the Premises. Landlord shall not close the ceiling until Tenant has installed and tested
Tenant’s Cabling Work, provided that (i) the open ceiling does not cause a delay in Landlord completing any other part of
Landlord’s Work, or (ii) if the closing of the ceiling is the only remaining work for Landlord to substantially complete
Landlord’s Work, then the Commencement Date shall be deemed to have occurred on the date Landlord would have completed the
closing of the ceiling in the Premises but for the suspension of such work due to Tenant’s Cabling Work. Landlord and Tenant
shall reasonably cooperate with each other in this regard. Tenant agrees that it shall not in any way interfere with the progress
of Landlord’s Work by such access to the Premises. Should such access prove an impediment to the progress of Landlord’s
Work, Landlord may demand that Tenant vacate the Premises or take other steps to minimize the interference until such time as
Landlord’s Work is complete, and Tenant shall promptly comply with this demand. During the course of any access pursuant
to this Section 1.1.4, all terms and conditions of this Lease shall apply, except those regarding the start of the Commencement
Date and the obligation to pay Annual Rent and Additional Rent (hereinafter defined). Such access will not affect the start of
the Commencement Date or the Term (hereinafter defined) of this Lease except as expressly provided herein. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event Landlord shall be delayed in the commencement or performance of Landlord’s Work by reason of Tenant’s
actions during Tenant’s Cabling Work, the Commencement Date shall be retroactively adjusted by the number of days, if any,
by which commencement or performance of Landlord’s Work shall have been delayed by Tenant.

1.2
Failure to Deliver Possession. For purposes of this Agreement, “Tenant Delay” shall mean any act
or omission of any nature by Tenant, or its contractors, agents, employees, architects or representatives (collectively “Tenant
Parties”) which delays any of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease.


 


1.3
Delay in Landlord’s Work. If Landlord’s Work is delayed by reason of Force Majeure Delay or Tenant Delay, then
the Lease and the validity thereof shall not be affected thereby and Tenant shall not be entitled to terminate the Lease, to claim
actual or constructive eviction, partial or total, or to be compensated for loss or injury suffered as a result thereof, nor shall
the same be construed in any way to extend the term of the Lease, except as expressly set forth herein.


 


1.4

the Premises is delivered to Tenant, Landlord’s Work shall be substantially completed in accordance with all applicable
Laws, the Premises shall be in broom clean condition, structurally sound and free of leaks, and all Building Systems (as hereinafter
defined) shall be in working order. Landlord represents that, as of the date hereof, Landlord has no knowledge of any roof leaks
that affect the Premises.


 


1.5
Tenant Improvement Allowance. (a) Landlord shall provide a construction allowance (“Tenant’s Improvement
Allowance”) to reimburse Tenant for Tenant’s cost of Tenant’s Work (herein defined) in an aggregate
amount not to exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Seven Hundred Ninety-Five ($250,795.00) and 00/100 Dollars, provided that Tennant’s
Improvement Allowance shall only be applied to Tennant’s Work that is performed within the first three (3) Lease Years.
Tenant’s Improvement Allowance shall be payable to Tenant in installments, as Tenant’s Work progresses, but in no
event more frequently than monthly. Each installment of Tenant’s Improvement Allowance shall be due within thirty (30) days
after all of the following conditions shall have been satisfied:


 


	 	(i)	Tenant
    shall not be in default beyond any applicable notice and cure period of any of the terms, covenants or conditions to be performed
    or observed by Tenant under this Lease;
	 	 	 
	 	(ii)	Tenant
    shall have obtained, and at all times during the construction period shall maintain, all necessary and appropriate permits,
    licenses, authorizations and approvals from all governmental authorities having or asserting jurisdiction in connection with
    such construction, and shall have delivered true copies thereof to Landlord; and
	 	 	 
	 	(iii)	Tenant
    shall have delivered to Landlord: (x) a completed requisition for payment, certified and sworn to by an officer of Tenant
    and Tenant’s architect stating or accompanied by: (1) the amount being requested, (2) invoices for all labor and materials
    performed as part of Tenant’s Work to date, (3) intentionally omitted, (4) the value of labor and materials theretofore
    performed and incorporated in the Premises and the aggregate value of the entire Tenant’s Work to be performed, and
    (5) a certification from Tenant and Tenant’s AIA architect of the amount of Tenant’s Work which has been completed
    to date and that such work completed to date has been performed in a good and workmanlike manner in compliance with all applicable
    Laws; and (y) partial waivers of lien for the benefit of Landlord and Tenant from all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen
    who shall have furnished materials or supplies or performed work or services in connection with that portion of Tenant’s
    Work for which Tenant is seeking payment (other than subcontractors or materialmen performing work costing less than $5,000.00).
    Landlord shall not be required to make more than one (1) payment per any thirty (30) day period.


 




    	3



    	 



    

 


Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event that Tenant shall have satisfied all of the foregoing conditions other than the delivery of a partial
lien waiver required under Section 1.5(iii)(y) for such installment being requested, then, in such case, Landlord shall hold back
the portion (the “TI Retained Amount”) of such installment of Tenant’s Improvement Allowance attributable
to the work or materials furnished by Tenant’s contractor or subcontractor that did not provide the partial lien waiver
for such work or materials. Landlord shall disburse the TI Retained Amount within thirty (30) days of receipt of such partial
lien waiver.


 


	 	(b)	Landlord’s
    obligation to pay Tenant’s Improvement Allowance shall only apply to that part of Tenant’s Work in the Premises
    consisting of the installation of walls, partitions, columns, fixtures, improvements and appurtenances permanently attached
    to or built into the Premises, including the following: mechanical systems, flooring, ceilings, duct work, electrical wiring,
    plumbing, millwork, Tenant’s Generator (hereinafter defined) and supplemental air conditioning systems (if any), affixed
    carpeting and other floor coverings, but shall not include business and trade fixtures, machinery, equipment or other articles
    of personal property, professional fees, and/or so-called “soft costs”.
	 	 	 
	 	(c)	For
    purposes of this Section, the term “Tenant’s Work” shall mean all alterations performed by
    Tenant, in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, to the Premises, including, without limitation, any build-out of
    the Premises as a first-class laboratory facility and materially in accordance with the plans and specifications approved
    by Landlord.
	 	 	 
	 	(d)	In
    the event Landlord defaults in its obligation to pay any installment of Tenant’s Improvement Allowance and Landlord
    fails to either remedy such default or provide a written explanation to Tenant as to the reason for such default within thirty
    (30) days after Tenant gives Landlord notice thereof (which notice states in bold and capitalized letters “LANDLORD’S
    FAILURE TO MAKE PAYMENT MAY RESULT IN TENANT’S EXERCISING AN OFFSET RIGHT”, then Tenant shall have the right,
    but shall not be obligated, to offset against the next installment(s) of Annual Rent payable under this Lease an amount equal
    to any installment of Tenant’s Improvement Allowance which is in default, provided that no such offset shall be greater
    than fifty percent (50%) of the then monthly installment of Annual Rent.


 


1.6
Tenant may elect to install, in a located designated by Landlord, a small gas operated generator (the “Tenant’s
Generator”) that will exclusively serve the Premises. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein,
Tenant hereby elects to install Tenant’s Generator. Landlord shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, install Tenant’s
Generator, provided that Landlord’s failure to complete such installation shall not affect the start of the Commencement
Date or the Term, nor shall it affect Tenant’s obligation to pay the Annual Rent on the Rent Commencement Date. Tenant shall
be responsible for maintaining and repairing Tenant’s Generator and for obtaining and maintaining all licenses, permits
and approvals with respect to operation and removal of Tenant’s Generator. The cost of Tenant’s Generator may be paid
from Tenant’s Improvement Allowance. Landlord shall have no obligation to maintain, repair, operate or safeguard Tenant’s
Generator. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Landlord shall have the option of:


 


	 	i.	requiring
    Tenant to remove Tenant’s Generator, disconnect and/or “cap” any connections to the Building, or
	 	 	 
	 	ii.	requiring
    Tenant to leave Tenant’s Generator, reasonable wear and tear excepted.

2.
Term.


 


2.1
This Lease shall be effective upon the date first above written (the “Effective Date”). The term
of this Lease (the “Term”) shall commence upon the date (the “Commencement Date”)
of Substantial Completion of Landlord’s Work. Delivery of the Premises to Tenant is targeted to be thirty-five (35) days
from the execution of the lease (the “Target Delivery Date”) but, except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, Landlord will not incur liability if not met. The Term shall expire on the date (the “Lease Expiration Date”)
which is ten (10) years after the Rent Commencement Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms hereof. If delay
in possession is due to Tenant Delay, as defined in Section 1.2 hereof, there shall be no extension of the Commencement Date and
the Rent (as hereinafter defined) shall commence on the date that the Commencement Date would reasonably be deemed to have occurred,
but for the Tenant Delay. If by reason of such Tenant Delay Landlord shall incur additional costs and expenses, Tenant shall be
obligated to pay such additional costs as Additional Rent (hereinafter defined). Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to
the contrary:


 


(i)
if the Commencement Date shall be delayed beyond the Target Delivery Date (as such date shall be deemed extended on a day-for-day
basis by reason of Force Majeure Delay or Tenant Delay), then the Rent Abatement Period (hereinafter defined) shall be modified
to extend such period, on a day-for-day basis, for each day of such delay in the Commencement Date from and after Target Delivery
Date;


 


(ii)
if the Commencement Date shall be delayed more than thirty (30) days beyond the Target Delivery Date (as such date shall be deemed
extended on a day-for-day basis by reason of Force Majeure Delay or Tenant Delay), then the Rent Abatement Period shall be modified
to extend such period, on a two-day-for-each-day basis, for each day of such delay in the Commencement Date from and after the
thirtieth (30th) day after the Target Delivery Date; and


 


(iii)
if the Commencement Date has not occurred on or before the one hundred twentieth (120th) day after the Target Delivery
Date (as such date shall be deemed extended on a day-for-day basis by reason of Force Majeure Delay or Tenant Delay), then at
any time thereafter until the one hundred fiftieth (150th) day following the Target Delivery Date, Tenant shall have
the right to give Landlord a notice of termination of this Lease and if the Commencement Date shall not have occurred within ten
(10) business days after Landlord’s receipt of such notice of termination, then Landlord shall refund Tenant’s security
deposit and any payments of Rent theretofore made whereupon this Lease shall terminate and the parties shall have no further obligations
hereunder. If Landlord is not in receipt of Tenant’s notice of termination prior to the one hundred fiftieth (150th)
day following the Target Delivery Date, then Tenant shall thereafter have no further right to terminate the Lease pursuant to
this Section 2.1(iii).

2.2
Renewal Rights. Provided that Tenant shall not then be in default beyond any applicable grace, notice and cure period, and
that the original Tenant shall be in occupancy of the entire Premises, Tenant may extend the term of this Lease for one (1) additional
option period of five (5) years (hereinafter defined as the “Renewal Term”). Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Section 2.2, if, on the commencement of the Renewal Term, there shall be an default by Tenant
beyond any applicable grace or cure periods, Landlord, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, may elect, by written
notice to Tenant, to void Tenant’s exercise of the applicable renewal option, in which case Tenant’s exercise of the
applicable renewal option shall be of no force or effect, and the Term shall end of the Expiration Date of the initial Term of
this Lease, unless sooner cancelled or terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Lease or by Law. Tenant shall notify Landlord
in writing of its election to extend this Lease for the Renewal Term (an “Option Notice”), not less
than nine (9) months prior to the Expiration Date of the initial Term, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE as to such Option Notice requirement.
Tenant’s failure to timely exercise the option hereunder shall cause such right to terminate and be of no further force
or effect. The Annual Rent payable during the Renewal Term shall be at ninety-five percent (95%) of “Fair Market Rental
Value” (as hereinafter defined). Tenant shall have no further right to extend the term of this Lease beyond the Renewal
Term. If Tenant shall extend the term of this Lease pursuant to the provisions of this Section, such extension shall be automatically
effected without the execution of any additional documents.


 


2.3
Fair Market Value.


 


2.3.1
The “Fair Market Rental Value” of the Premises means the rental rate to a landlord under no compulsion to lease
the Premises and a tenant under no compulsion to lease the Premises would agree upon as the rent for the first year of the Renewal
Term, taking into consideration the uses permitted under this Lease, the quality, size, design and location of the Building and
the Premises (but not considering any above-Building standard improvements made by Tenant), the rent for comparable buildings
and complexes located in the area, the creditworthiness of Tenant, and refurbishment allowance (consisting of building standard
materials and paint) amount based on the market value at the time the option is exercised. For the purpose of establishing the
fair market rental value adjustment, within fifteen (15) business days following Landlord’s receipt of an Option Notice,
Landlord shall notify Tenant of the opinion of Landlord as to the Fair Market Rental Value for the Premises, which shall be the
Annual Rent applicable to the first year of the First Renewal Term or Second Renewal Term, as applicable. Tenant shall have fifteen
(15) business days following receipt of such written notice within which to notify Landlord if Tenant disputes such Fair Market
Rental Value, and upon failure of Tenant to so notify Landlord, the Fair Market Rental Value specified by Landlord shall be deemed
accepted by Tenant as the Annual Rent at the commencement of the Renewal Term. If Tenant notifies Landlord within such fifteen
(15) business day period that Tenant does not agree with the Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises specified by Landlord, and
if Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon such Fair Market Rental Value within the next ensuing thirty (30) days, then such
fair market rental value shall be determined by appraisal as described below. Landlord and Tenant will use good faith efforts
to agree on the Fair Market Rental Value as soon as practicable after Landlord receives the Option Notice.


 


2.3.2
Within ten (10) business days after the expiration of the fifteen (15) business day period set forth in Section 2.3.1,
Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint a real estate appraiser with at least five (5) years’ full-time commercial appraisal
experience in the area in which the Premises are located to appraise the then fair market rental value of the Premises. If either
Landlord or Tenant does not appoint an appraiser within fifteen (15) business days after the other has given notice of the name
of its appraiser, the single appraiser appointed will be the sole appraiser and will set the then fair market rental value of
the Premises. If two (2) appraisers are appointed pursuant to this Section 2.3.2, they will meet promptly and attempt to set the
then fair market rental value of the Premises. If they are unable to agree within thirty (30) days after the second appraiser
has been appointed, they will attempt to select a third appraiser meeting the qualifications stated in this Section 2.3.2 within
ten (10) business days after the last day the two (2) appraisers are specified. If they are unable to agree on the third appraiser.
then either the Landlord or the Tenant, by giving ten (10) business days’ prior notice to the other, can apply to a then
presiding judge of the New York Supreme Court in the County of Nassau for the selection of a third appraiser who meets the qualifications
stated in this Section 2.3.2. Landlord and Tenant each shall bear one-half (1⁄2) of the cost of appointing the third appraiser
and of paying the third appraiser’s fee (and shall each bear the cost of their own appraisers). Within thirty (30) days
after the selection of the third appraiser, a majority of the appraisers who agree will set the then fair market rental value
of the Premises. If a majority of the appraisers are unable to set the then fair market rental value of the Premises within thirty
(30) days after selection of the third appraiser, then the two (2) closest appraisals shall be averaged, and this average shall
establish the then fair market rental value of the Premises the Fair Market Rental Value shall include then customary increases
in Annual Rent.

2.3.3
In the event such Fair Market Rental Value determination shall not have been completed prior to the commencement of the Renewal
Term, Tenant shall pay as Annual Rent, effective as of and subsequent to the commencement of the applicable Renewal Term, the
Fair Market Rental Value first communicated by Landlord to Tenant, and if such Annual Rent is thereafter fixed or readjusted to
a different amount, such new Annual Rent shall take effect retroactively back to the commencement of the Renewal Term, and Tenant
or Landlord, as the case may be, shall promptly pay to the other the sum which is accrued and underpaid or overpaid as a result
of such retroactive application.


 


2.3.4
Wherever the word “Term” or “term” is used in this Lease, it shall be deemed to include the Renewal
Term, in the sense of such use shall be appropriate. During the Renewal Term, wherever the word “Expiration Date”
is used in the Lease, it shall be deemed to include the last day of the Renewal Term.


 


2.4
Early Termination. Provided that at the time Tenant gives its notice of termination hereunder Tenant is not then in default
beyond any applicable notice and cure period of any of its obligations pursuant to this Lease, Tenant shall have the option to
terminate this Lease which shall be effective on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date (“Early
Termination Date”). The exercise of such option to terminate this Lease under this Section 2.4 must be accomplished
by written notice of termination (“Tenant’s Early Termination Notice”) received by Landlord not less than nine
(9) months and not more than twelve (12) from the Early Termination Date (time being of the essence) and the following
amounts shall become due and payable to Landlord, as Additional Rent under this Lease, together with delivery of Tenant’s
Early Termination Notice: the then unamortized amount of the (i) Tenant’s Improvement Allowance given pursuant to Section
1.5; and (ii) Landlord’s Work (which shall be calculated based on Landlord’s reasonable estimate of Landlord’s
out-of-pocket costs (including so-called “hard costs” and “soft costs”) in connection with Landlord’s
Work); (iii) all Rent abated in accordance with Section 3.3 hereof; (iv) any fee, commission or other compensation paid by Landlord
to any broker or finder, and (v) any legal fees, incurred in connection with this Lease. If Tenant’s notice of termination
under this Section 2.4 is not timely received by Landlord, then Tenant shall be deemed to have waived Tenant’s option to
terminate this Lease under this Section 2.4. In the event Tenant elects to terminate this Lease in accordance with this Section
2.4, Tenant shall vacate and surrender possession of the Premises on the Early Termination Date in accordance with the provisions
of Section 8.1 hereof, and the Lease shall terminate as if that were the date otherwise herein fixed for termination of this Lease,
and all Rent shall be adjusted as of such date and the parties shall thereafter be relieved of any further liability as respects
the other arising from this Lease. This termination right shall be personal to Prophase Diagnostics, Inc., and shall not be transferrable
by operation of law or otherwise.

The
Annual Rent shall be paid by Tenant in twelve (12) equal monthly installments of “Monthly Rent” in the

Rent unless the context specifically or clearly implies that only the Annual Rent is referenced. The Annual Rent and Additional
Rent shall be paid to Landlord without any prior demand therefore and without any deduction or offset except as specified elsewhere
in the Lease, in lawful money of the United States of America.

3.3
Abatement of Rent. Monthly Rent and Additional Rent shall be waived and the “Rent Commencement Date”
shall be seven (7) months after the Commencement Date (the “Rent Abatement Period”), irrespective of
whether Tenant has obtained any necessary approvals or licenses to operate Tenant’s business. The Monthly Rent and Additional
Rent that is abated during the Rent Abatement Period shall be referred to herein as the “Abated Rent.”
Tenant shall be entitled to the abatement as set forth above in this Section 3.3, provided that if Tenant shall have defaulted
beyond any applicable grace or cure periods, then, in such case, Tenant shall pay on a per diem basis the Abated Rent until such
default has been cured. Furthermore, the Abated Rent shall be recoverable in any action by Landlord under the Lease, but only
in the event Landlord has terminated this Lease due to an Event of Default by Tenant beyond any applicable notice and cure period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Rent Abatement Period, Tenant shall pay for all utilities consumed or provided in or
furnished to or attributable to the Premises from whatever source and all fees incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s
reading of any meter or submeter that serves the Premises.


 


4.
Taxes.


 


A.
“Landlord’s Tax Statement” shall mean an instrument containing a computation of any Additional
Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Article.


 


B.
The term “Taxes” shall mean all such taxes, assessments, use and occupancy taxes in respect of this
Lease and any subleases made hereunder, PILOT Payments, water and sewer charges, rates and rents, water and other meter charges
and all such other charges, taxes, levies and sums of every kind or nature whatsoever, general and special, extraordinary as well
as ordinary, whether or not now within the contemplation of the parties, as shall or may during or in respect of the Term (or
any period prior to the Term for which Annual Rent is payable) be assessed, levied, charged or imposed upon or become a lien on
the Building or parcel of land on which the Building is located (the “Land”), or any part thereof, or
anything appurtenant thereto, or the sidewalks, streets or roadways in front of, adjacent to or appurtenant to the Building or
Land (and which have a basis related in any way to the Land or Building, and/or the use or manner of use thereof), or which, if
imposed on Tenant or in respect of the Land or Building and if not paid by Tenant, would be collectible from Landlord, or which
have been so assessed, levied, charged or imposed prior to the Term (but, in the last-mentioned case, only with respect to a period
falling within the Term); provided, however, that, except if and to the extent otherwise provided in the succeeding sentence,
Taxes shall not mean federal, state or local income taxes, franchise, excise, gift, transfer, capital stock, estate, succession
or inheritance taxes or penalties or interest for late payment of any tax in respect of which Tenant shall have duly made payment
of Additional Rent as herein provided. If, at any time during the Term, the methods of taxation prevailing at the commencement
of the Term shall be altered so that, in lieu of or as a substitution in whole or in part for the taxes, assessments, levies,
impositions or charges now or hereafter levied, assessed or imposed on real estate and the improvements thereon, shall be levied,
assessed or imposed any tax or other charge on or in respect of the Land or Building or the rents, income or gross receipts of
Landlord therefrom (including any county, town, municipal, state or federal levy), then such tax or charge shall be deemed a Tax,
but only to the extent that such Tax would be payable if the Land or Building, or the rent, income or gross receipts received
therefrom, were the only property of Landlord subject to such Tax, and Tenant shall pay and discharge the same as herein provided
in respect of the payment of Taxes.


 


C.
Tenant’s Proportionate Share (“Tenant’s Proportionate Share”) shall be 22.2%, subject to
the provisions of Section 1(c) hereof.


 


D.
Landlord and the Town of Hempstead Industrial Development Agency (the “IDA”) entered into a Payment-in-Lieu-of-Tax
Agreement dated as of March 27, 2013 (the “PILOT Agreement”) whereby the payments in lieu of real estate
taxes payable by Landlord are as set forth in the PILOT Payment Schedule on Exhibit D annexed hereto. To the extent and for so
long as the PILOT Agreement between Landlord and the IDA shall be in effect, the real estate taxes payable by Tenant under Section
5(B) hereof shall mean Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the increases in payments required under the PILOT Agreement over
the 2021 base tax year as stated in the PILOT Payment Schedule (the “PILOT Base Year”), and shall be
payable as Additional Rent.


 




    	9



    	 



    

 


E.
If the PILOT Agreement is terminated or modified or expires at any time during the Term of the Lease, then Tenant shall pay, as
Additional Rent, and in lieu of any payment under Section 4(D), an amount equal to Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the increase
in Taxes, if any, over the PILOT Base Year.


 


F.
The payments required under this Article 4 shall continue during the Term of the Lease.


 


G.
If, due to a change in the method of taxation, any franchise, income, profit, sales, rental, use and occupancy, or other tax shall
be assessed or charged upon the Building and substituted for Taxes or levied against the Landlord or any owner of the Building,
such tax shall be included in the calculation of real estate taxes.


 


H.
Only Landlord shall be eligible to institute tax reduction or other proceedings to reduce the assessed valuation of the Building
or the Project. Tenant agrees that no such contest or proceeding shall relieve Tenant of any obligation to pay real estate taxes.
If Landlord shall obtain a tax refund as a result of a tax reduction proceeding, then Tenant shall, provided Tenant is not then
in default under the Lease beyond the expiration of applicable notice and cure periods, and after the final conclusion of all
appeals and all other remedies, be entitled to a refund of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the increases required to be
paid under Section 5(D) or 5(E), as the case may be, after first deducting from the gross refund all reasonable and customary
appraisal, engineering, expert testimony, attorney, printing and filing fees, and all other reasonable and customary costs and
expenses of the proceeding provided, however, that Tenant shall not receive any refund in excess of the amount actually paid by
Tenant for the applicable tax year.


 


5.

In
addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall not use or occupy the Premises in any manner or suffer or permit the Premises or any part
thereof to be used in any manner, or do or suffer or permit anything to be done in the Premises, or bring anything into the Premises

with, all requirements of any board of fire underwriters or similar body relating to the Premises, and all laws, now or hereafter
applicable to the Premises and Tenant’s use, occupancy, alteration and/or improvement thereof, including, without limitation,
the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) (collectively, “Laws”).
Such compliance obligations shall include any and all alterations, replacements, improvements and changes, whether structural
or non-structural, unforeseen and/or extraordinary, and regardless of the period of time then remaining in the Lease Term; provided,
however, that Tenant shall not be required to make any such alterations, replacements, improvements and/or changes unless (i)
the same is due to Tenant’s particular manner of use of the Premises, (ii) in connection with any Alterations made to the
Premises by Tenant, or (iii) in connection with any repairs to damage to the Premises caused by Tenant or Tenant’s agents,
employees, contractors, licensees or invitees.


 


5.3
Signs & Directory Listings.


 


(A)
Tenant shall not install any signs, awnings, canopies or advertisements in, on or about the Premises or Building unless Tenant
complies with all Laws and obtains approval therefore from all governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Premises
and obtains from Landlord approval (such approval, unless otherwise expressly provided, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed) with respect to the size, location and method of installation. Subject to the preceding sentence, Tenant may, at Tenant’s
sole cost and expense, install (i) two (2) exterior signs on the façade of the Building, with one sign facing Stewart Avenue
and the other sign facing the parking lot, (ii) one (1) identification signage on the monument signage on Stewart Avenue in front
of the Building, and (iii) one (1) identification signage at the main entrance of the Building in a location and size approved
by Landlord in its sole discretion. Tenant agrees to maintain any such sign, or advertising matter as may be approved by Landlord
in good condition and repair at all times. At the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, at Landlord’s election,
Tenant shall remove all signs, and advertising installed by or at the direction of Tenant and shall repair any damage to the Premises
and Building resulting therefrom all at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. If Tenant fails to maintain and/or remove any such
approved sign, or advertising and/or fails to repair any such damage, Landlord may do so and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for
the actual costs incurred by Landlord in performing such work. If, without Landlord’s prior written consent, Tenant installs
any sign, awning, canopy or advertising, or fails to remove any such item(s) at the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease, Landlord may upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Tenant, have such item(s) removed and stored and may
repair any damage to the Premises or Building at Tenant’s expense. All removal, repair and/or storage costs incurred by
Landlord pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.3 shall bear interest at the rate (the “Interest Rate”)
equal to Citibank’s prime rate plus five (5%) percent. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 6.3 shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 6.3 shall survive the expiration
or earlier termination of this Lease for up to one (1) year.


 




    	11



    	 



    

 


(B)
Subject to the foregoing, Tenant’s signage shall be of a size and prominence commensurate with the amount of Tenant’s
square footage in the Building as compared with other tenants, present and future, in the Building.


 


(C)
Tenant acknowledges that it is Landlord’s intention that signage at the Building will be uniform among its tenants. Tenant
shall install and maintain signage in a manner which is in conformity with signage for other tenants in the Building to the extent
that present and future leases of such tenants in the Building so provide. The installation of any new signage to comply with
the foregoing sentence shall be at the expense of Tenant, and Tenant shall be responsible for the maintenance of any such signage.
Tenant shall be responsible for any permitting from all governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Premises in connection
with the replacement of Tenant’s signage in order to comply with this Section 5.3(C).


 


5.4
Common Areas. As used in this Lease, the term “Common Areas” shall mean the parts of the project in which Building
is located (the “Project”) designated by Landlord from time to time for the common use of all tenants
of the Project and as otherwise may be set forth in the Condominium Documents. Landlord reserves the right to make changes to
the location, dimensions, identify any type of any other building within the Project and to construct additional buildings or
additional stories on existing buildings or other improvements in the Project, and to eliminate buildings from the Project, except
for the Building in which the Premises is located, Tenant and its employees, patients, approved subtenants and licensees shall
have the non-exclusive (or exclusive where provided herein or in the Condominium Documents) right and license to use the Common
Areas as constituted from time to time, such use to be in common with Landlord, other tenants of the Project and other persons
permitted by Landlord to use the same. Landlord may temporarily close any part of the Common Area for such periods of time as
may be necessary to make repairs or alterations, provided, however, that Landlord shall not make any changes to the Common Areas,
the Project or any building or improvement located therein which change would materially and negatively impact on Tenant’s
use and occupancy of the Premises or access thereto. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize disruption
to Tenant’s business in the exercise of its rights pursuant to this Section 5.4. Landlord shall be responsible for the operation,
management and maintenance of all Common Areas except as otherwise set forth in Section 30.


 


6.2
Refuse. Tenant agrees not to keep any trash, garbage, waste or other refuse on the Premises except in sanitary containers
and agrees to regularly and frequently remove same from the Premises and store such trash, garbage, waste and other refuse in
dumpsters designated by Landlord. Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the charges for Landlord’s dumpster services based
on Tenant’s proportionate share of such charges for such dumpster services, which shall be such charges multiplied by a
fraction the numerator of which shall be the gross square feet of the Premises and the denominator of which shall be the gross
square feet of all tenants and occupants of the Building using such common dumpster services.

Surrender; Holding Over.


 


8.1
Surrender of Premises. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender all keys for the Premises
to Landlord, and Tenant shall deliver exclusive possession of the Premises to Landlord broom clean and in good condition and repair,
reasonable wear and tear and minor conditions arising from Tenant’s move-in and move-out excepted, with all of Tenant’s
personal property removed therefrom, and all damage caused by such removal repaired, as required pursuant to Sections 11.2 and
11.3 below. If, for any reason, Tenant fails to surrender the Premises on the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease,
with such removal and repair obligations completed, then, in addition to the provisions of Section 8.3 below and Landlord’s
rights and remedies under Section 11.4 and the other provisions of this Lease, Tenant shall, beginning on the thirtieth (30th)
day following the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel reasonably approved
in writing by Landlord) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, judgments, suits, causes of action,
losses, liabilities, penalties, fines, expenses and costs (including, without limitation, costs, sums paid in settlement of claims,
attorneys’ fees, consultant fees and expert fees and court costs, but excluding indirect or consequential damages) (collectively,
“Claims”) which arise or result from such failure to surrender, including, without limitation, any Claims
made by any succeeding tenant based thereon. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease.


 


8.2
Holding Over. If Tenant holds over after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, then, without waiver of
any right on the part of Landlord as a result of Tenant’s failure to timely surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord,
Tenant shall become a tenant at sufferance only, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease so far as applicable (including
Tenant’s obligation to pay all costs, expenses and any other Additional Rent under this Lease), but at a Monthly Rent equal
to the following: (i) beginning as of the 1st day of holdover, one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the Monthly
Rent applicable to the Premises immediately prior to the date of such expiration or earlier termination; and (ii) beginning as
of the 60th day of holdover, one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Monthly Rent applicable to the Premises immediately
prior to the date of such expiration or earlier termination; and (iii) beginning as of the 90th day of holdover and
continuing for any period thereafter, two hundred percent (200%) of the Monthly Rent applicable to the Premises immediately prior
to the date of such expiration or earlier termination. Acceptance by Landlord of rent after such expiration or earlier termination
shall not constitute a consent to a hold over hereunder or result in an extension of this Lease. Tenant shall pay an entire month’s
Monthly Rent calculated in accordance with this Section 8.2 for any portion of a month it holds over and remains in possession
of the Premises pursuant to this Section 8.2.


 


8.3

shall be liable for, and shall pay before delinquency, all personal taxes and assessments levied against (a) any personal property
or trade fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the Premises and (b) any tenant improvements or alterations (including Tenant Changes)
in or about the Premises and/or the Building made by Tenant.


 




    	14



    	 



    

 


10.
Repairs.


 


10.1
Tenant’s Repair Obligations as to Premises. Tenant shall at all times take good care of the Premises, and the “Building
Systems,” and all fixtures and appurtenances therein other than (i) structural items, (ii) the facade, (iii) the
roof, (iv) the foundation, (v) Common Areas, and (vi) those portions of the fire alarm, fire sprinkler, plumbing, sanitary and
electrical distribution systems up to the point where such systems enter the Premises. All damage or injury to the Premises and
to such fixtures and appurtenances, including structural items and Common Areas and Exterior Areas (as defined in Section 11.1),
caused by Tenant’s moving property in and out of the Premises, or by Tenant’s installation or removal of fixtures,
furniture or other property or from any other action or omission by Tenant, shall be repaired and restored or replaced promptly
by Tenant, at its sole cost and expense. All repairs, restorations and replacements shall be in quality and class at least equal
to the original work or installations. Tenant shall pay for any security guards and systems and card access systems, which it
desires to install on the Premises. The term “Building Systems” shall be defined to mean all mechanical,
plumbing, ventilating, heating, air conditioning sprinkler systems, sanitary systems, electrical systems, fire alarm and sprinkler
systems, and any supplemental HVAC systems and conduits, which service the Premises. Replacement of all bulbs and ballasts is
the sole responsibility of Tenant. Landlord shall have the option of performing the replacements at Tenant’s expense. Landlord
shall provide Tenant with key card(s) for Landlord’s existing card access system for the main entrance to the Building.


 


10.2
Landlord’s Cure Option. If Tenant fails to make repairs, restorations or replacements as required under Section 10.1,
after thirty (30) days’ written notice to Tenant, then the same may be made by Landlord after five (5) days’ notice
to Tenant if not cured (except in the case of an emergency), at Tenant’s expense, and the amounts spent by Landlord (together
with interest thereon at the Interest Rate, from the date of Landlord’s expenditure through the date of Tenant’s payment
in full) shall be collectible as Additional Rent, to be paid by Tenant on demand by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if,
in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, any such repairs are immediately necessary to address an emergency, or to the extent that
the condition in need of repair poses a bona fide threat to the structural integrity of the Building or an adjacent space or to
any Building System or to the safety of any other tenant and invitees therein, then, on notice to Tenant’s on-site manager,
Landlord may forthwith make said repairs on behalf of the Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, to be calculated and paid by Tenant
in accordance with the preceding sentence.


 


10.3
No Diminution of Rental. There shall be no allowance to Tenant for a diminution of rental value, and no liability on Landlord’s
part, by reason of inconvenience, annoyance or injury to Tenant’s business arising from the making of repairs, alteration,
additions or improvements in or to the Premises or the Building, or to the fixtures, appurtenances or equipment thereof, by Landlord
(or those of its employees, agents or contractors), Tenant or others. Landlord will use commercially reasonable good faith efforts
not to materially interrupt Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the Premises when making such repairs, alterations, additions
or improvements but, the obligation to use good faith efforts shall not require Landlord to employ overtime labor or pay any premium
or surcharge for labor or materials.


 




    	15



    	 



    

 


10.4
As-Is. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, except to the extent specifically set forth in this Lease or any exhibit annexed
hereto or document referenced herein and except for Landlord’s Work to be performed pursuant to the terms hereof, Landlord
has not made, does not make and specifically negates and disclaims any representations, warranties, promises, covenants, agreements
or guarantees, express or implied, of any kind or character whatsoever concerning or with respect to (i) the value, nature, quality
or condition (including, without limitation, the environmental condition) of the Premises, and the Building; (ii) the suitability
of the Premises, and the Building for any and all activities and uses which Tenant may conduct thereon except as otherwise expressly
set forth herein; (iii) the compliance of the Premises, and the Building with any Laws; (iv) the habitability, merchantability,
marketability, profitability or fitness for a particular purpose of the Premises, and the Building; (v) the manner or quality
of the construction or materials incorporated into the Premises and the Building; (vi) the manner, quality, state of repair or
lack of repair of the Premises and the Building; (vii) the lawfulness of the use of the Premises for the Permitted Use; or (viii)
any other matter with respect to the Premises and the Building, it being agreed that all risks incident to all of these matters
are to be borne by Tenant, except as provided to the contrary herein. Tenant further acknowledges and agrees that any information
provided or to be provided by or on behalf of Landlord with respect to the Premises and the Building was obtained from a variety
of sources and that Landlord has not made any independent investigation or verification of such information and makes no representations
as to the accuracy or completeness of such information, except as provided to the contrary herein. Tenant further acknowledges
and agrees that, except to the extent specifically set forth in this Lease, the leasing of the Premises as provided for herein
is made on an “AS-IS” condition and basis with all faults. Tenant recognizes that the Premises contains built-in furniture
installed by the prior occupant. Tenant represents that it has inspected such built-in furniture and is not relying on any representation
of Landlord or the prior occupant, and that Landlord does not represent or warrant the condition of the built-in furniture, and
Tenant accepts the same in their “as is” condition as they exist on the date of this Lease.


 


11.
Alterations.


 


11.1
Tenant Changes; Conditions. Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions, improvements to the Premises other than minor
non-structural alterations or alterations costing less than One Hundred Fifty Thousand ($150,000.00) Dollars and other decorating
or renovations of a minor nature to the Premises (collectively, “Tenant Changes,” and individually,
a “Tenant Change”) unless Tenant first obtains Landlord’s prior written approval thereof, which
approval Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may withhold its consent,
in its sole and absolute discretion, with respect to any such alterations, additions, improvements to or affecting (i) the Building’s
structure, roof and systems (the “Base Building Components”) or any other structural components and/or
systems serving the Premises or any portion thereof, or (ii) the exterior portions of the Building (the “Exterior
Areas”). Tenant may not make any alterations to the Common Areas.


 


11.2
Removal of Tenant Changes. All Tenant Changes (and specifically excluding Tenant’s furniture fixtures and equipment)
which have become permanently affixed to the Premises shall become the property of Landlord and shall remain upon and be surrendered
with the Premises at the end of the Term of this Lease; provided, however, that if, contemporaneously with Tenant’s request
for Landlord’s consent to any Tenant Change, Tenant requests the right to remove said Tenant Change at the end of the Term
of this Lease, Landlord will respond in writing to such requests simultaneously with its approval of such Tenant Change. In no
event shall Tenant be required to remove any of the improvements existing in the Building as of the date possession thereof is
delivered to Tenant, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.4. If Landlord requires Tenant to remove any such items as described
above, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, remove the identified items on or before the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease
and repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal. The removal of any supplemental HVAC units installed by Tenant pursuant
to Section 15.2.1 shall be at Landlord’s sole option.


 


11.3
Removal of Personal Property. All articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed by Tenant at its expense on the
Premises (including business and trade fixtures, furniture non-permanent fixtures and movable partitions and those Tenant Changes
for which Landlord has consented to Tenant’s removal thereof) shall be, and remain, the property of Tenant, and shall be
removed by Tenant from the Premises, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, on or before the expiration or sooner termination
of this Lease. Tenant shall repair any damage caused by such removal.


 




    	16



    	 



    

 


11.4
Tenant’s Failure to Remove. If Tenant fails to remove by the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease all of its
personal property, or any items of Tenant Changes identified by Landlord for removal pursuant to Section 11.2 above, Landlord
may (without liability to Tenant for loss thereof) at Tenant’s sole cost and in addition to Landlord’s other rights
and remedies under this Lease, at law or in equity: (a) remove and store such items in accordance with applicable law upon fifteen
(15) days prior written notice to Tenant; and/or (b) upon additional fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to Tenant sell
all or any such items at private or public sale for such price as Landlord may obtain as permitted under applicable law.


 


12.
Liens.


 


Tenant
shall not permit any mechanic’s, materialmen’s or other liens to be filed against all or any part of the Land nor
against Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises, by reason of or in connection with any repairs, alterations, improvements
or other work contracted for or undertaken by Tenant or any other act or omission of Tenant or Tenant’s agents, employees,
contractors, licensees or invitees. If any such liens are filed, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, within twenty (20) days after
filing thereof, cause such lien to be released of record or bonded so that it no longer affects title to the Premises or the Building.
If Tenant fails to cause such lien to be so released or bonded within such twenty (20) day period, Landlord may, without waiving
its rights and remedies based on such breach, and without releasing Tenant from any of its obligations, cause such lien to be

13.
Assignment and Subletting.


 


13.1
Restriction on Transfer. Except as hereinafter set forth Tenant shall not assign or encumber this Lease in whole or in part,
nor sublet all or any part of the Premises, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord will not unreasonably
delay, condition or withhold, except as provided in this Section 13. The consent by Landlord to any assignment, encumbrance or
subletting shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity for such consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. This prohibition
against assigning or subletting shall be construed to include a prohibition against any assignment or subletting by operation
of law. Without limiting in any way Landlord’s right to withhold its consent on any reasonable grounds, it is agreed that
Landlord will not be acting unreasonably in refusing to consent to an assignment or sublease if, in Landlord’s reasonable
opinion, (a) the proposed assignee or subtenant does not have the financial capability to fulfill the obligations imposed by the
assignment or sublease, as applicable, (b) the proposed assignment or sublease involves a use of the Premises that is prohibited
by the terms hereof, (c) the proposed assignee or subtenant is not, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, of reputable or good
character, or (d) Landlord’s mortgagee(s) or superior Landlord(s) does(do) not approve such assignment or sublease. If Tenant
is a corporation, or is an unincorporated association or partnership, the transfer, assignment or hypothecation of any stock or
interest in such corporation, association or partnership in the aggregate in excess of forty-nine percent (49%) shall be deemed
an assignment within the meaning and provisions of this Section 13.1.

13.2
Additional Conditions. A condition to Landlord’s consent to any assignment, sublease or other transfer of this Lease
will be the delivery to Landlord of a true copy of the fully executed instrument of assignment, sublease or transfer, in form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, which instrument shall, in the case of an assignment, include an express assumption
by the assignee of all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. No assignment, sublease or other transfer will release
Tenant of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay the Rent and to perform
all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. No collection or receipt of Rent by Landlord shall be deemed a waiver
on the part of Landlord, or the acceptance of the assignee, subtenant or occupant as Tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further
performance by Tenant of covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. Consent by Landlord to one assignment, sublease or
other transfer will not be deemed consent to any subsequent transfer. In the event of default by any transferee of Tenant or any
successor of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity
of exhausting remedies against such transferee or successor. If Tenant effects a transfer or requests the consent of Landlord
to any transfer (whether or not such transfer is consummated), then, upon demand, and as a condition precedent to Landlord’s
consideration of the proposed assignment or sublease, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’
fees and costs and other reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in reviewing such proposed assignment or sublease. Notwithstanding
any contrary provision of this Lease, if Tenant or any proposed transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed
its consent to a proposed transfer or otherwise has breached its obligations under this Section 14, Tenant’s and such transferee’s
only remedy shall be for Tenant to seek a declaratory judgment and/or injunctive relief requiring Landlord to issue such consent,
and Tenant, on behalf of itself and, to the extent permitted by law, and any such proposed transferee, waives all other remedies
against Landlord, including without limitation, the right to seek monetary damages or to terminate this Lease.


 


13.3
Within ten (10) days after payment as to an assignment, or ten (10) days after the due date of any payment under a sublease,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord 100% of any consideration received for any assignment or subletting, in excess of the rent required
to be paid by Tenant for the Premises (in the case of an assignment) or the area sublet, as the case may be, computed on a per
square foot rent basis for the gross square footage Tenant has sublet. 


 


13.4
The provisions of Section 13.1 hereof shall not apply to transactions with a corporation or other legal entity into or with
which Tenant (or any permitted subtenant of Tenant) is merged or consolidated or to transactions with a corporation or other legal
entity to which all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets or all or substantially all of Tenant’s equity interests
(and all of the assets or equity interests, as applicable, of Tenant’s Affiliate which owns or controls all of the facilities
operated thereby) are transferred, whether or not pursuant to a sale, (collectively, a “Tenant’s Successor”)
or to any corporation which controls or is controlled by Tenant or is under common control with Tenant (herein called a “Tenant’s
Affiliate”), provided that in any of such events (a) the Tenant’s Successor (x) is a reputable entity of good

and observed shall have been delivered to Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of any such transaction,

this Lease, (f) the Tenant Successor or Tenant’s Affiliate, as the case may be, is an experienced owner and operator of
a business of the same type and quality as that to be operated in the Demised Premises pursuant to the provisions of this Lease,
(g) the Tenant Successor or Tenant’s Affiliate, as the case may be, has a good business and personal reputation and shall
continue to operate the business at the Demised Premises for the express uses permitted hereunder, (h) neither the Tenant Successor
or Tenant’s Affiliate nor any of its principals has been bankrupt or the holder of fifty (50%) percent or more of the issued
shares of any class of shares of a corporation or of a fifty (50%) percent or more interest in a partnership or other similar
entity, either of which has been bankrupt in the five (5) years preceding the date of the proposed assignment, and (i) the Tenant
Successor or Tenant’s Affiliate, as the case may be, will carry on business in the Premises in a manner comparable to that
of the named Tenant and in accordance with the Permitted Use. For purposes hereof, the term “Net Worth”
shall mean the excess of total assets over total liabilities; total assets and total liabilities each being determined in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, excluding, however, from the determination of total assets
all assets which would be classified as intangible assets under generally accepted accounting principles, including, without limitation,

is controlled by Tenant or is under common control with Tenant, then Tenant may substitute a guarantor as guarantor (the “Substitute
Guarantor”) under the guaranty; provided (i) the Substitute Guarantor, if an individual, is a reputable person who
is a principal of the then assignee/Tenant, (ii) the Substitute Guarantor then has a Net Worth, after giving effect to such assignment,

the other party, its officers, directors, members, servants, agents or employees for such loss or damage, whether or not the loss
or damage was due to the acts or omissions of the other party or its officers, directors, members, servants, agents or employees.
Upon the occurrence of any casualty insured against, each shall have full authority to, and shall, take all necessary measures
to negotiate, compromise or adjust any loss under such party’s policy. Each party hereby waives any and all right of recovery,
which it might otherwise have against the other party, its employees and servants and agents for loss or damage to the Premises
or Tenant’s furniture, furnishings, fixtures and personal property. Each party, at its cost and expense, will cause its
insurance carrier to include, in each policy of insurance that said party is, by the terms and provisions of this Lease, required
to obtain or which is obtained by said party, an endorsement (i) waiving the right of subrogation against the other party and
its agents, officers, directors, members, servants and mortgagees with respect to losses payable under such policies or (ii) agreeing
that such policies shall not be invalidated should the insured waive in writing prior to a loss any or all right of recovery against
any party for losses covered by such policies.


 


19.4
Waiver. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Article 19, Tenant hereby expressly waives the provisions of Section 227
of the Real Property Law, or any other law or statute hereafter enacted of similar import, and agrees that the foregoing provisions
of this Article shall govern and control in lieu thereof.

    	27



    	 



    

 


20.2.
Recovery of Rent. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 20.1(A), if there shall be an Event of Default at any time
or from time to time under the provisions of subdivision (A) (1) of Section 20.1A, Landlord may, in lieu of giving a Termination
Notice, at any time after the occurrence of any such Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, institute an action
for the recovery of the Rent in respect of which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Neither the commencement
of any such action for the recovery of Rent nor the prosecution thereof shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to
give a Termination Notice in respect of any such Event of Default during the continuance thereof and Landlord may, notwithstanding
the commencement and prosecution of any such action, give a Termination Notice and terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 20.1.A
(1) at any time during the continuance of such Event of Default.


 


20.3
Interest on Late Payments. If Tenant fails to pay any item of Rent on or prior to the fifth (5th) day after the date when

the date of payment. In addition, Tenant shall pay Landlord an administrative fee, as Additional Rent, of $500.00 for each such
nonpayment or late payment. Nothing contained in this Section 20.3 limits Landlord’s available rights or remedies after
the occurrence of an Event of Default.


 


20.4
Re-Entry. In the event that this Lease shall be terminated as provided in this Article, Landlord or Landlord’s agents
may, immediately, or at any time thereafter, without further notice, enter upon and re-enter the Premises and possess and repossess
itself thereof, by summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and have, hold and enjoy the Premises and the right to receive
all income of and from the same. No re-entry by Landlord pursuant to this Article shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender
of this Lease nor shall it absolve or discharge Tenant from any liability under this Lease.


 


20.5
Reletting. In the event that this Lease shall be terminated as provided in this Article, Landlord may, at any time or from
time to time thereafter, relet the Premises or any part thereof, for such term or terms (which may be greater or less than the
period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term) and on such conditions (which may include concessions or
free rent, as Landlord may determine, to any tenant which it may deem suitable and satisfactory and for any use and purpose it
may deem appropriate and may collect and receive the rents therefor. Landlord, at its option, may make such repairs, alterations,
additions, improvements, decorations and other physical changes in and to the Premises, as Landlord considers advisable or necessary
in connection with any such reletting or proposed reletting, without relieving Tenant of any liability under this Lease or otherwise
affecting any such liability. Landlord shall in no way be responsible or liable for any failure to relet the Premises, or any
part thereof, or for any failure to collect any rent due upon such reletting. Landlord shall not in any event be required to pay
Tenant any sums received by Landlord on a reletting of the Premises, or any part thereof, whether or not in excess of the rent
reserved in this Lease.


 


20.6
Tenant Waivers. Tenant, on its own behalf and on behalf of all persons claiming through or under Tenant including all creditors,
does hereby waive any and all rights and privileges, so far as is permitted by law, which Tenant and all such persons might otherwise
have under any present or future law, to (i) the service of any notice of intention to re-enter or institute legal proceedings
to that end, excluding service of process, (ii) redeem the Premises, (iii) re-enter or repossess the Premises, or (iv) restore
the operation of this Lease, after Tenant shall have been dispossessed by a judgment or by warrant of any court or judge, or after
any re-entry by Landlord or after any expiration or termination of this Lease and the Term, whether such dispossess, re-entry,
expiration or termination shall be by operation of law or pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. The words “re-enter,”
“re-entry” and “re-entered” as used in this Lease shall not be deemed to be restricted to their technical
legal meanings.


 


20.7
Disputed Rent. In the event the Tenant shall dispute the validity or amount, or the time or manner of payment of, any rent
claimed by Landlord to be due from Tenant under this Lease, Tenant shall nevertheless pay the same and such payment may be without
prejudice to Tenant’s position if Tenant so requests at the time of payment. If the dispute shall be finally determined
in Tenant’s favor by a court of competent jurisdiction, Landlord shall within a reasonable period of time not to exceed
sixty (60) days’ pay Tenant the amount of Tenant’s overpayment of such rent. Tenant’s failure to observe and
perform the provisions of this Section shall be deemed a default under subdivision (1) of Section 2.1.

21.
Measure of Damages in Event of Default


 


21.1.
Damages. In the event that this Lease be terminated pursuant to Article 20 as a result of an Event of Default on the part
of the Tenant and whether or not the Premises be relet, Landlord shall be entitled to retain all monies, if any, paid by Tenant
to Landlord, whether as advance rent or otherwise, but such monies shall be credited by Landlord against any rent due at the time
of such termination, or at Landlord’s option, against any damages payable by Tenant, and Landlord shall be entitled to recover
from Tenant, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the following:


 


(a)
All Rent to the date upon which this Lease and the Term shall have terminated, and


 


(b)
All expenses reasonably incurred by Landlord in recovering possession of the Premises (including summary proceedings), restoring
the Premises to good order and condition, maintaining the Premises in good order and condition while vacant, altering or otherwise
preparing the same for reletting, and in reletting the Premises (including brokerage commissions and legal expenses), plus all
costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in applying for Landlord’s Permits, the same to be paid by Tenant to Landlord on
demand, and


 


(c)
The amount by which the Rent which, but for the termination of this Lease, would have been payable under this Lease from the date
of termination to the Expiration Date exceeds the rental and other income, if any, collected by Landlord in respect of the Premises,
or any part thereof, subject nevertheless to the provisions of Section 20.5, said amount to be due and payable by Tenant to Landlord
on the several days on which the rent reserved in this Lease would have become due and payable for the period which otherwise
would have constituted the unexpired portion of the Term (that is to say, upon each of such days Tenant shall pay to Landlord
the amount of deficiency then existing).


 


21.2
Whether or not Landlord shall have collected any monthly deficiencies aforesaid, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from
Tenant on demand, as and for liquidated damages, a lump sum payment equal to the amount by which the Rent payable hereunder for
the period which otherwise would have constituted the unexpired portion of the Term, and conclusively presuming the Additional
Rent to be the same as was payable for the year immediately preceding such termination or re-entry and thereafter increasing by
five (5%) percent per annum) exceeds the then rental value of the Premises for the same period both discounted at a rate equal
to then applicable Treasury Rate to present value. If the Premises or any part thereof be relet by Landlord for the unexpired
portion of the Term, or any part thereof, before presentation of proof of such liquidated damages to any court, commission or
tribunal, the amount of rent reserved upon such reletting shall be deemed prima facie to be the fair and reasonable rental
value for the part or the whole of the Premises so relet during the term of the reletting. Nothing herein contained shall limit
or prejudice the right of the Landlord to prove for and obtain as damages by reason of such termination an amount equal to the
maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such damages
are to be proved, whether or not such amount be greater or less than the amount of liquidated damages referred to above (due account
to be taken, however, of the amounts, if any, collected under this Article 21).


 


21.3
Excess Rent. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess of the rental and other income collected by Landlord
in respect of the Premises over the sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder. In no event shall Tenant be entitled in any
suit for the collection of damages pursuant to this Article to a credit in respect of any such rental and other income, except
to the extent that such rental and other income is allocable to the portion of the Term in respect of which such suit is brought
and is actually received by Landlord prior to the entry of judgment in such suit.


 




    	29



    	 



    

 


21.4
Separate Actions. Separate actions may be maintained by Landlord against Tenant from time to time to recover any damages,
which, at the commencement of any such action, have then or theretofore become due and payable to Landlord under Article 20, without
waiting until the end of the Term and without prejudice to Landlord’s right to collect damages thereafter.


 


21.5
Rights and Remedies Cumulative. All rights, options and remedies of Landlord contained in this Section 21 and elsewhere in
this Lease shall be construed and held to be cumulative, and no one of them shall be exclusive of the other, and Landlord shall
have the right to pursue any one or all of such remedies or any other remedy or relief which may be provided by law or in equity,
whether or not stated in this Lease. Nothing in this Section 21 shall be deemed to limit or otherwise affect Tenant’s indemnification
of Landlord pursuant to any provision of this Lease.


 


22.
Subordination.


 


This
Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to the Decalaration and any ground or master lease (and such extensions and
modifications thereof), and to the lien of any mortgage now or hereafter encumbering all or any portion of the Premises (as well
as to any advances made thereunder and to all renewals, replacements, modifications and extensions thereof). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to subordinate or cause to be subordinated the Declaration or any ground or master leases
or the lien of any or all mortgages to this Lease. In the event that any mortgage is foreclosed or a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure
is made for any reason, at the election of Landlord’s successor in interest, Tenant shall attorn to and become the tenant
of such successor. Tenant hereby waives its rights under any current or future law which gives or purports to give Tenant any
right to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of Tenant hereunder in the event of any such foreclosure
proceeding or sale. Subject to the foregoing, Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord within fifteen (15)
days after receipt of written demand by Landlord and in the form reasonably required by Landlord, any additional documents evidencing
the priority or subordination of this Lease with respect to the Declaration or any ground lease or master lease or the lien of
any such mortgage or Tenant’s agreement to attorn. If, in connection with Landlord’s obtaining or entering into any
financing or ground lease for any portion of the Premises, the lender or ground Landlord shall request modifications to this Lease,
Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after request therefor, execute an amendment to this Lease including such modifications, provided
such modifications are reasonable, do not increase the obligations of Tenant hereunder, or adversely affect the leasehold estate
created hereby or Tenant’s rights hereunder and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for its reasonable costs (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) in connection with the foregoing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall use
best efforts to obtain a non-disturbance agreement from the holder of the mortgage currently encumbering the Project (“Lender”)
substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F. Tenant may negotiate said form with the Lender provided that Tenant will
pay any fee or cost imposed by Lender, the IDA and its counsel as a result thereof, and Tenant’s obligations under this
Lease shall not be waived or delayed, and Landlord’s rights and remedies shall not be materially affected in the event a
non-disturbance agreement is not executed. Furthermore, in the event this Lease is to be subject to any mortgage hereafter in
effect, then Landlord shall use best efforts to deliver to Tenant a non-disturbance agreement, reasonably satisfactory to Tenant
and the then mortgagee.


 




    	30



    	 



    

 


23.
Estoppel Certificate.


 


Within
ten (10) business days following Landlord’s written request, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate
certifying: (a) the Commencement Date; (b) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, that this
Lease is in full force and effect as modified, and stating the date and nature of such modifications); (c) the date to which the
Rent and other sums payable under this Lease have been paid; (d) that there are not, to the best of Tenant’s knowledge,
any defaults under this Lease by either Landlord or Tenant, except as specified in such certificate; (e) all work to be completed
by Landlord shall have been completed and performed; (f) the amount of any security deposit; and (g) such other matters as are
reasonably requested by Landlord. Any such estoppel certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 23 may be relied upon by any
mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of any portion of the Premises, as well as their assignees.


 


24.
Quiet Enjoyment.


 


Landlord
covenants and agrees with Tenant that, upon Tenant performing all of the covenants and provisions on Tenant’s part to be
observed and performed under this Lease (including payment of Rent hereunder), Tenant shall and may peaceably and quietly have,
hold and enjoy the Premises in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease as against all persons claiming
by, through or under Landlord.


 


25.
Transfer of Landlord’s Interest.


 


The
term “Landlord” as used in this Lease, so far as covenants or obligations on the part of the Landlord
are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the landlord or landlords, at the time in question, of the fee title
to, or a Tenant’s interest in a ground lease of, the Premises. In the event of any transfer or conveyance of any such title
or interest (other than a transfer for security purposes only), the transferor shall be automatically relieved of all covenants
and obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease accruing after the date of such transfer or conveyance.


 


26.
Limitation on Parties’ Liability.


 


26.1
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, the obligations of Landlord under this Lease (including
any actual or alleged breach or default by Landlord) do not constitute personal obligations of the individual partners, members,
managers, directors, officers or shareholders of Landlord or Landlord’s partners or affiliates, and Tenant shall not seek
recourse against the individual partners, members, managers, directors, officers or shareholders of Landlord or Landlord’s
partners or affiliates, or any of their personal assets for satisfaction of any liability with respect to this Lease. In addition,
in consideration of the benefits accruing hereunder to Tenant and notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary,
Tenant hereby covenants and agrees for itself and all of its successors and assigns that the liability of Landlord for its obligations
under this Lease (including any liability as a result of any actual or alleged failure, breach or default hereunder by Landlord),
shall be limited solely to, and Tenant’s and its successors’ and assigns’ sole and exclusive remedy shall be
against, Landlord’s interest in the Premises, and no other assets of Landlord.


 


26.2
Except in connection with the enforcement of any guaranty, notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary,
the obligations of Tenant under this Lease (including any actual or alleged breach or default by Tenant) do not constitute personal
obligations of the individual partners, members, managers, directors, officers or shareholders of Tenant or Tenant’s partners
or affiliates, and Landlord shall not seek recourse against the individual partners, members, managers, directors, officers or
shareholders of Tenant or Tenant’s partners or affiliates, or any of their personal assets for satisfaction of any liability
with respect to this Lease.

27.
Miscellaneous.


 


27.1
Governing Law. This Lease shall be governed by, and construed pursuant to, the laws of the State of New York.


 


27.2
Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Section 13 above, and except as otherwise provided in this Lease, all
of the covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties
hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives and permitted successors and assigns.


 


27.3
No Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant or a mutual termination thereof shall not work as a merger
and shall, at the option of Landlord, either (a) terminate all or any existing subleases, or (b) operate as an assignment to Landlord
of Tenant’s interest under any or all such subleases.


 


27.4
Professional Fees. If either Landlord or Tenant should bring suit against the other with respect to this Lease, including
for unlawful detainer or any other relief against the other hereunder, then all costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing
party therein (including, without limitation, its actual appraisers’, accountants’, attorneys’ and other professional
fees, expenses and court costs), shall be paid by the other party.


 


27.5
Waiver. The waiver by either party of any breach by the other party of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall
not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant and condition herein contained,
nor shall any custom or practice which may become established between the parties in the administration of the terms hereof be
deemed a waiver of, or in any way affect, the right of any party to insist upon the performance by the other in strict accordance
with said terms. No waiver of any default of either party hereunder shall be implied from any acceptance by Landlord or delivery
by Tenant (as the case may be) of any rent or other payments due hereunder or any omission by the non-defaulting party to take
any action on account of such default if such default persists or is repeated, and no express waiver shall affect defaults other
than as specified in said waiver. The subsequent acceptance of rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of
any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular
rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent.


 


27.6
Prior Agreements; Amendments. This Lease, including the Summary and all Exhibits and Riders attached hereto contains all of
the covenants, provisions, agreements, conditions and understandings between Landlord and Tenant concerning the Premises and any
other matter covered or mentioned in this Lease, and no prior agreement or understanding, oral or written, express or implied,
pertaining to the Premises or any such other matter shall be effective for any purpose. No provision of this Lease may be amended
or added to except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest. The parties
acknowledge that all prior agreements, representations and negotiations are deemed superseded by the execution of this Lease to
the extent they are not expressly incorporated herein.


 


27.7
Separability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Lease (except for Tenant’s obligation to pay
Rent) shall in no way affect, impair or invalidate any other provision hereof, and such other provisions shall remain valid and
in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.


 




    	32



    	 



    

 


27.8
Accord and Satisfaction. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a Landlord amount than the rent payment herein stipulated
shall be deemed to be other than on account of the rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying
any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice
to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease. Tenant agrees
that each of the foregoing covenants and agreements shall be applicable to any covenant or agreement either expressly contained
in this Lease or imposed by any statute or at common law.


 


27.9
Force Majeure Delay. In the event that either party shall be delayed or hindered in or prevented from the performance of any
act required hereunder by reason of preemption, strikes, lock-outs, labor troubles, labor disputes, shortages of labor and material,
inability to procure materials, failure of power, governmental moratorium or other governmental action or inaction (including
failure, refusal or delay in issuing permits, approvals and/or authorizations), government restrictions (including restrictions
issued as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic or any other public health emergency so declared by governmental authority), injunction
or court order, riots, insurrection, war, enemy action, civil commotion, riot, insurrection, fire, earthquake, flood or other
natural disaster or other reason of a like nature, not the fault of said party and other acts of God (herein collectively, “Force
Majeure Delay”), then performance of such act shall be excused for the period of the delay and the period for the
performance of any such act shall be extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay, provided that Force Majeure
Delay shall not apply to Tenant’s obligations to pay Rent or any other charges, fees or costs pursuant to this Lease.


 


27.10
Parking. Tenant shall have the use of six (6) reserved parking spaces, which parking spaces shall be designated by Landlord.
Subject to the Municipal Code and all other applicable laws and regulations, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to (four)
4 parking spaces for every 1,000 square feet of rentable area in the parking lot around the Building for Tenant’s non-exclusive
use as depicted on the parking diagram (the “Parking Diagram”) annexed hereto as Exhibit G. Common parking
areas shall be provided at no additional cost for use by Tenant, its personnel and visitors in common with such other parties
as Landlord shall permit to use the same on a “first come, first served” basis, subject to the preceding sentence.
Landlord reserves the right, at all times during the term hereof, to promulgate and enforce reasonable rules and regulations with
respect to the same in accordance with the terms of Section 17.1 hereof. Tenant, its permitted assignees and subtenants, personnel
and visitors shall not, at any time, park trucks or delivery vehicles in any of the areas designated for automobile parking. Landlord
shall have no responsibility to police or otherwise insure Tenant’s use thereof. All parking spaces and parking areas shall
be unattended and shall be utilized at the vehicle owner’s own risk. Landlord shall not be liable for any injury to persons
or property or loss by theft, or otherwise, of any vehicle or its contents.

Tenant has deposited with Landlord the sum of $240,000.00 (“Security Deposit”) as security for the
faithful performance by Tenant of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease. It is agreed that in the event Tenant defaults
in any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Lease, including but not limited to the payment of Rent, or failure to restore
under Article 11, Landlord may use, apply or retain (as it elects) the whole or any part of the Security Deposit to the extent
required for the payment of any Rent or any other sum as to which Tenant is in default or for any sum which Landlord may expend
or may be required to expend by reason of Tenant’s default, including but not limited to any damages or deficiency in the
re-letting of the Premises, whether such damages or deficiency accrued before or after summary proceedings or other re-entry by
Landlord. In any such event, Tenant shall be obligated to restore the security within fifteen (15) days after demand by Landlord
to the full amount called for hereunder. In the event that Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the terms, provisions,
covenants and conditions of this Lease, including but not limited to payment of all Rent due hereunder, the Security Deposit shall
be returned to Tenant after the expiration of the term of this Lease and after delivery of entire possession of the Premises to
Landlord and an inspection and accounting by Landlord indicating Tenant’s full compliance.


 


29.2
Letter of Credit. As an alternative to the cash Security Deposit required under Section 29.1, Tenant may, within the first
twelve (12) months following the Commencement Date, deliver to Landlord a letter of credit (“Letter of Credit”)
to serve as security for the full and faithful performance and observance by Tenant of all of the terms, conditions, covenants
and agreements of this Lease. The Letter of Credit must be in a form acceptable to Landlord and must conform to the requirements
of Section 29.3 below, and the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to the Letter of Credit shall be governed by
the provisions of Sections 29.4 and 29.5, below.


 


29.3
Requirements for Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit must conform to each the following requirements:


 


29.3.1
Such Letter of Credit shall be a clean, irrevocable and unconditional letter of credit transferable in whole or in part by
Landlord. The Letter of Credit and any renewal, amendment and replacement thereof shall be issued by a commercial bank (the “Issuing
Bank”) which is a member of The Clearing House LLC, reasonably acceptable to Landlord, which Letter of Credit shall
have a term of one year, with automatic renewals and with thirty (30) days’ notice to Landlord for non-renewal, be for the
account of Landlord, provide for partial drawdowns and be in the amount set forth below, as security for the faithful performance
and observance by Tenant of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease, including, without limitation, the surrender of
possession of the Premises to Landlord as herein provided. Tenant agrees to cause the Issuing Bank to renew the Letter of Credit,
in the same form, or to obtain a Letter of Credit from another Issuing Bank conforming to the provisions of this Section annually
during the term of this Lease. The Letter of Credit or any remaining portion of any sum collected by Landlord thereunder from
the Issuing Bank, together with any other portion of any other sums then held by Landlord as security and which sums Landlord
is not entitled to apply or retain with respect to any default by Tenant hereunder, shall be returned to Tenant within Thirty
(30) days after the Fixed Expiration Date.

29.3.2
The Letter of Credit must expressly state that all fees and expenses are for the account of Tenant, that neither the beneficiary
nor any successor beneficiary shall have any obligation to pay any such fees or expenses, and that the failure of Tenant to pay
any such fees or expenses shall not affect the rights of the beneficiary thereunder; and


 


29.3.3
The original Letter of Credit to be delivered by Tenant upon execution of this lease shall be in the face amount of $240,000.00.


 


Tenant
acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have no responsibility or liability on account of any error by the Issuing Bank.


 


29.4
Sale or Lease of the Building or Property. In the event of the sale or lease of the Building,
Landlord shall have the right, at no cost to Landlord, to transfer the Security Deposit or Letter of Credit, as the case may be,
without charge for such transfer, to the purchaser or lessee, and Landlord shall thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability
for the return of such Security Deposit or Letter of Credit (excluding liability, if any, relating to draws made by Landlord or
Landlord’s designated beneficiary prior to the date of transfer, if any), as the case may be. In such event, Tenant agrees
to look solely to the new landlord for the return of said Security Deposit or Letter of Credit (excluding liability, if any, relating
to draws made by Landlord or Landlord’s designated beneficiary prior to the date of transfer, if any), as the case may be.
It is agreed that the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment made of such rights to a new landlord. In
the event of the posting of a Letter of Credit in lieu of the cash Security Deposit, Tenant shall execute such documents as may
be necessary to accomplish such transfer or assignment of the Letter of Credit.


   
 


29.5
No Assignment. Tenant covenants that it will not assign or encumber, or attempt to assign
or encumber, the Security Deposit or Letter of Credit held hereunder, and that neither Landlord nor its successors or assigns
shall be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment, or attempted encumbrance. In the event that any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or other debtor-creditor proceedings shall be instituted by or against Tenant, its successors or assigns,
or any guarantor of Tenant hereunder, the security shall be deemed to be applied to the payment or the Base Rent and Additional
Rent due Landlord for periods prior to the institution of such proceedings and the balance, if any, may be retained by Landlord
in partial satisfaction of Landlord’s damages.


 





30.
OFAC Compliance


 


30.1
Landlord and Tenant each represents and warrants to the other that (a) it and each person or entity owning an interest in
it, is (i) not currently identified on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List maintained by the Office of
Foreign Assets Control, Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”) and/or on any other similar list maintained
by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, executive order or regulation (collectively, the “List”),
and (ii) not a person or entity with whom a citizen of the United States is prohibited to engage in transactions by any trade
embargo, economic sanction, or other prohibition of United States law, regulation, or Executive Order of the President of the
United States, (b) none of its funds or other assets constitute property of, or are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly,
by any Embargoed Person (as hereinafter defined), (c) no Embargoed Person has any interest of any nature whatsoever in it (whether
directly or indirectly), (d) none of its funds have been derived from any unlawful activity with the result that the investment
in it is prohibited by law or that the Lease is in violation of law, and (e) it has implemented procedures, and will consistently
apply those procedures, to ensure the foregoing representations and warranties remain true and correct at all times. The term,
“Embargoed Person” means any person, entity or government subject to trade restrictions under U.S. law,
including but not limited to, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. § 1701 et seq., The Trading
with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq., and any Executive Orders or regulations promulgated thereunder with the result

30.2
Tenant covenants and agrees (a) to comply with all requirements of law relating to money laundering, anti-terrorism, trade
embargoes and economic sanctions, now or hereafter in effect, (b) to immediately notify Landlord in writing if any of the representations,
warranties or covenants set forth in this paragraph or the preceding paragraph are no longer true or have been breached, or if

Lease, and (d) at the request of Landlord, to provide such information as may be requested by Landlord to determine Tenant’s
compliance with the terms hereof.


 


30.3.
Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that inclusion on the List at any time during the Lease Term of this shall be
a material default of the Lease. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant shall not permit the Leased Premises
or any portion thereof to be used or occupied by any person or entity on the List or by any Embargoed Person (on a permanent,
temporary or transient basis), and any such use or occupancy of the Leased Premises by any such person or entity shall be a material
default of the Lease.


 


31.
Condominium Provisions.


 


31.1
Wherever in this Lease there is an obligation or duty imposed upon Landlord and there is a corresponding obligation imposed
upon the Condominium or Condominium Association pursuant to the Condominium Documents, then, in each such instance, this Lease
shall be read as though the obligation or duty of the Landlord was in fact the obligation or duty of the Condominium or the Condominium
Association, as the case may be, and subject to Tenant’s right to exercise any remedy provided hereunder for Landlord’s
failure to perform as required, Landlord shall otherwise have no duty to Tenant with respect thereto except to use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the Condominium Association to so perform such obligation or duty or as herein otherwise specified.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Lease, any provision of this Lease that requires Landlord
to “cause the Condominium Association” to provide services or perform any other act shall be deemed to require Landlord
to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Condominium Association to do the same, and Landlord shall not be liable to
Tenant for any failure in performance resulting from the failure in performance by the Condominium Association, and Landlord’s
obligations hereunder are accordingly conditional where such obligations require such parallel performance by the Condominium
Association, provided that Landlord shall, at Landlord’s cost and expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce
such rights as Landlord may have against the Condominium Association under the Condominium Documents for the benefit of Tenant
upon Tenant’s written request therefor (and to forward to the Condominium Association any notices or requests for consent
as Tenant may reasonably request).


 


31.2
To the extent that the obligations set forth in this Lease on the part of Landlord to be performed, including, without limitation,
any obligations with respect to services and the maintenance, repair and restoration of the Building and Building systems, are,
in accordance with the provisions of the Condominium Documents, the obligations of the Condominium Association, Landlord shall
not be responsible for the performance of any such obligations and Tenant agrees to look solely to the Condominium Association
for the performance of such obligations. Landlord shall, however, use commercially reasonable efforts to require the Condominium
Association to comply with the terms of the Condominium Documents. Landlord shall in no event be liable to Tenant, nor shall the
obligations of Tenant hereunder be impaired or the performance thereof excused, because of any failure or delay on the Condominium
Association’s part in performing such obligations.


 




    	36



    	 



    

 


31.3
The use of the Premises and the Common Elements, or any part thereof, by Tenant or any of Tenant’s employees and invitees
shall be subject at all times during the Term to the Condominium Documents and the additional Condominium rules and regulations
adopted from time-to-time by the Landlord or the Condominium Association governing, without limitation, the use of the passageways,
signs, exterior of the Building, lighting and other matters affecting other tenants in, and the general management and appearance
of, the Building and Project, provided such future rules and regulations do not diminish Tenant’s rights hereunder.


 


32.
IDA Lease.


 


Tenant
acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease: (i) the fee title Landlord of the Project
is the Town of Hempstead Industrial Development Agency (“IDA”), and that Landlord’s interest therein
is its interest under that certain Lease Agreement, dated as of March 27, 2013 between the IDA, as Landlord, and Landlord, as
Tenant (the “IDA Master Lease”), (ii) Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises will be subject
and subordinate to the terms and conditions of the IDA Master Lease, (iii) this Lease, Tenant’s rights hereunder, and Tenant’s
ability to assign or sublease are subject to the approval of the IDA, (iv) contemporaneously herewith, Tenant shall execute and
deliver to Landlord the IDA Tenant Agency Compliance Agreement attached hereto collectively as Exhibit E.


 


33.
Right of First Refusal to Lease.


 


33.1.
Provided (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) this Lease has not been otherwise terminated or cancelled,
Tenant shall have the right of first refusal (the “ROFR”) to lease either or both of the spaces located
on the ground floor of the Building containing 4,500 square feet (the “4500 SF Space”) and 4,600 square
feet (the “4600 SF Space;” together with the 4500 SF Space herein referred to as the “ROFR
Space”). If at any time during the Term after the date hereof, Landlord receives from a third party an acceptable,
bona fide, arms-length offer to lease (“Offer to Lease”) the ROFR Space, then Landlord shall give to
Tenant notice (the “Lease Notice”) in writing of any such proposed Offer to Lease, setting forth the
material terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, the following (the “Offer Terms”): (a)
the commencement date of the proposed lease and the expiration date of the proposed lease, (b) the base annual rental payable,
(c) any material additional rent payable with respect to the ROFR Space, including any additional rent related to increases in
real estate taxes or other charges, (d) the dollar amount of any work which Landlord is willing to perform or pay for in the ROFR
Space, (e) any concession or free rent period applicable to the proposed letting, and (f) any other material term and condition.
During the ten (10) day period following the date Landlord gives the Lease Notice to Tenant, Tenant shall have the option (the
“ROFR Space Option”) to lease the ROFR Space from Landlord on the Offer Terms. Tenant shall exercise
the ROFR Space Option by giving Landlord notice thereof (the “Exercise Notice”) on or before the last
day of such ten (10) day period (the “Exercise Notice Date”), time being of the essence. Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary contained herein, Tenant’s ROFR rights with respect to the 4500 SF Space is subject and subordinate
to the rights of Northwell Health Inc. (or any successor that is a permitted assignment under the terms of its lease), and to
lease the ROFR Space in accordance with the terms of their lease.


 




    	37



    	 



    

 


33.2.
Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease, effective as of the date such ROFR Space is to be included in
the Premises, on the same terms contained in the Offer Notice except that (i) Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall proportionately
increase, (ii) if the term of the lease for the ROFR Space is less than the initial Term of this Lease, then the lease for the
ROFR Space shall be coterminous with the initial Term of this Lease, (iii) if the term of the lease for the ROFR Space is greater
than the initial Term of this Lease (excluding the renewal option), then the initial Term of this Lease shall be extended so that
it shall be coterminous with the term of the lease of the ROFR Space, in which case the Annual Rent for the Premises shall increase
each additional Lease Year by 2.75%; (iv) Landlord shall not be obligated to perform any work to prepare the ROFR Space for Tenant’s
occupancy and (v) if the ROFR is exercised by Tenant any time after the third (3rd) anniversary of the Commencement
Date, then the initial Term of this Lease shall be increased so that the initial Term shall expire on the date that is the later
of (x) ten (10) years from the effective date of the lease for the ROFR Space or (y) the expiration date of the term of the lease
of the ROFR Space. If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree on the terms of the amendment within ten (10) days after Tenant has timely
elected to lease the ROFR Space, Tenant, at any time after such ten (10) day period and prior to the execution of the amendment,
shall have a right to withdraw its election to lease the ROFR Space. If Tenant fails to timely exercise its right hereunder, then
such right shall lapse as to the ROFR Space covered by the applicable Lease Notice, time being of the essence with respect to
the exercise thereof, Landlord may lease the ROFR Space to the third party submitting the applicable offer substantially on the
terms set forth in the applicable Lease Notice. If Landlord and Tenant do not execute an amendment within thirty (30) days after
Tenant has timely elected to lease the ROFR Space, Landlord may, at any time after such thirty (30) day period and prior to the
execution of the amendment, lease the ROFR Space to the third party submitting the applicable offer substantially on the terms
set forth in the applicable Lease Notice. The ROFR Space Option shall apply only to, and may not be exercised by any person or
entity other than the Tenant expressly named in this Lease.


 


34.
Right of First Offer.


 


34.1.
Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter
set forth, Tenant shall have a right of first offer with respect to the sale of the Office Building Unit during the Term (the
“ROFO”). If Landlord determines, in Landlord’s sole discretion, to offer the Office Building Unit
for sale during the Term, Landlord shall first give written notice to Tenant setting forth the “Material Terms” upon
which Landlord is willing to sell the Office Building Unit to Tenant (the “Offer Notice”). For the purposes
hereof, “Material Terms” shall mean (i) the purchase price, (ii) the required contract deposit/down
payment, (iii) the proposed closing date, and (iv) such other terms as Landlord may determine. Within twenty (20) days after receipt
of such Offer Notice (the “ROFO Exercise Period”), Tenant may elect, by written notice to Landlord (“Tenant
Election Notice”), to accept the offer contained in the Offer Notice and to purchase the Office Building Unit in
accordance with a Purchase Agreement (hereinafter defined). The failure of Tenant to give a Tenant Election Notice within the
ROFO Exercise Period, time being of the essence, shall constitute an irrevocable waiver of the ROFO, and Landlord shall thereafter
have the unrestricted right to offer the Office Building Unit for sale and to sell the Office Building Unit to any other person
or entity on any terms and conditions selected by Landlord in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion provided the sales
price is not less than ninety (90%) percent of the sales price that was set forth in the Offer Notice to Tenant. If Landlord does
not execute and deliver a contract for the sale of the Office Building Unit to a third party purchaser within one (1) year following
the end of the ROFO Exercise Period, or if the proposed sales price is less than ninety (90%) percent of the sales price that
was set forth in the Offer Notice to Tenant, the Tenant’s ROFO hereunder shall reinstate (a “ROFO Reinstatement”).


 




    	38



    	 



    

 


34.2.
If Tenant gives a Tenant Election Notice within the ROFO Exercise Period, then within ten (10) days thereafter, Landlord shall
prepare and deliver to Tenant a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) containing the Material
Terms that were contained in the Offer Notice and any other usual and customary terms as are contained in commercial real estate
sales contracts in Nassau County, New York including, without limitation, (i) usual and customary adjustments, including rents,
security deposit, common charges and real estate taxes; (ii) payment by seller of the NYS Real Property Transfer Tax, (iii) the
delivery by seller at closing of a bargain and sale deed without covenants against grantor’s acts, containing the covenant
required by Section 13 of the Lien Law; and (iv) acceptance of the Office Building Unit by purchaser at closing in its then “as
is” condition. Within ten (10) business days after receipt of the Purchase Agreement from Landlord, the Tenant shall execute
and deliver the Purchase Agreement to Landlord, together with a bank check payable to Landlord’s attorneys in the amount
of the required deposit/down payment. Landlord shall execute the Purchase Agreement and deliver one fully executed counterpart
thereof to Tenant within five (5) business days after receipt. If Tenant fails to execute and deliver the Purchase Agreement and
pay the deposit/down payment within said ten (10) business day period, or if Tenant fails to close title in accordance with the
terms of the Purchase Agreement for any reason, Tenant shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived the ROFO, this Section 34 shall
be deemed null and void, and Landlord shall thereafter have the unrestricted right to offer the Office Building Unit for sale
and to sell the Office Building Unit to any other person or entity on any terms and conditions selected by Landlord in Landlord’s
sole and absolute discretion, subject to Tenant’s right to a ROFO Reinstatement pursuant to Section 34.1 above, if applicable.


 


34.3.
The ROFO set forth herein shall be deemed null and void ab initio upon the termination of this Lease for any reason,
or assignment of this Lease to any assignee.
