OFFICE LEASE




     THIS LEASE AGREEMENT (the “Lease”), dated as of, but not necessarily on, November 1, 2009,
made by and between the undersigned Landlord and the undersigned Tenant.



W I T N E S S E T H   T H A T:




     Landlord, for and in consideration of the rents, covenants, agreements and stipulations herein
contained, to be paid, kept and performed by Tenant, has leased and rented, and by these presents
hereby leases and rents unto Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases upon the terms and conditions herein
contained, the Premises described in Section 1.1(b) below. This Lease shall create the
relationship of landlord and tenant between Landlord and Tenant; and Tenant has only a usufruct
which is not subject to levy and sale. So long as Tenant shall observe and perform the covenants
and agreements binding on it hereunder and subject to the terms and provisions hereof, Tenant shall
at all times during the Lease Term (as hereinafter defined) peacefully and quietly have and enjoy
possession of the Premises.



     This Lease shall be applied and construed in a commercially reasonable manner. Whenever
herein the consent, approval or concurrence of either Landlord or Tenant shall be required for
action or forbearance by the other party, it is agreed that such consent, approval or concurrence
shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, except as to matters specified as being
in the discretion or sole discretion of the party from which the consent, approval or concurrence
is required. Discretionary consent, approval or concurrence may be withheld, delayed or
conditioned without regard to any standard of reasonableness.



I




PREMISES AND OTHER DEFINITIONS




     Terms not defined in this Lease shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Lease
Summary attached as a preamble hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference. Unless the
context otherwise specifies or requires, the following terms shall have the meanings herein
specified:



     1.1 Premises. Terms used in defining Premises are:




     (a) The term “Building” shall mean the building located at 1900 Lake Park Drive,
Smyrna, Georgia, consisting of approximately 35,858 square feet of rentable space.




     (b) The term “Premises” shall mean that portion of the Building located on the floor(s)
of the Building specified in the Lease Summary, which portion is shown on the floor plan(s)
attached hereto as Exhibit “A” together with a non-exclusive right in common with others to
use and enjoy those common areas or portions of the Building, including but not limited to
driveways, sidewalks, parking lots, hallways, corridors, trash rooms, mechanical and
electrical rooms, storage rooms, stairways, entrances, exits, restrooms, lobbies, stairs,
loading docks, pedestrian walks, roofs and basements, janitor’s and storage closets within
the Building and all other common rooms and common facilities within the Building
(collectively, the “Common Areas”). Upon any expansion or contraction of the Premises
pursuant to the terms of this Lease or other agreement of the parties, the term “Premises”
shall be deemed to apply to such space as adjusted by such expansion or contraction.



     1.2 Area of the Premises. The “Rentable Area” and the “Expanded Rentable Area” of the
Premises for all purposes of this Lease shall be the agreed quantity of square footage so
designated in the Lease Summary.



     1.3  “Prime Rate” shall mean the rate of interest announced from time to time by Bank
of America, N.A. as its prime rate of interest. An increase or decrease in the Prime Rate shall
result in a corresponding increase













 







or decrease in the rate of interest being charged hereunder and shall take effect on the day
the increase or decrease in the Prime Rate is made effective. In the event that Bank of America,
N.A. shall abandon or abolish the practice of publishing the Prime Rate, or should the same become
unascertainable, Landlord shall designate a comparable reference rate which shall then be deemed to
be the Prime Rate under this Lease.



     1.4 “Property Taxes” shall mean the following: (a) personal property ad valorem taxes
imposed upon the furniture, fixtures, machinery, equipment, apparatus, systems and appurtenances
used in connection with the Building for the operation thereof; (b) real estate ad valorem taxes,
assessments, impact fees, sewer charges and transit taxes; and (c) any other federal, state or
local governmental charge, general, special, ordinary or extraordinary (but not including income or
franchise taxes or any other taxes imposed upon or measured by Landlord’s income or profits, unless
the same shall be imposed in lieu of real estate ad valorem taxes) which may now or hereafter be
levied or assessed against the Building and the land underlying the Building or the rents derived
from the Building (in the case of special taxes or assessments which may be payable in
installments, only the amount of installments paid during a calendar year shall be included in the
taxes for that year).



II




TERM, ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING




     2.1 Term. Except as otherwise provided herein, Tenant takes and accepts the Premises
from Landlord in their present condition and as suited for the use intended by Tenant, for the term
described below (the “Lease Term”). The Lease Term shall commence on the date specified in the
Lease Summary as the Commencement Date (the “Commencement Date”) and shall end at 6:00 p.m. local
time on the date specified in the Lease Summary as the Expiration Date (the “Expiration Date”).
The rental and other payments due hereunder from Tenant shall commence on the Rent Commencement
Date. Tenant may occupy the Premises for the two (2) weeks immediately preceding the Commencement
Date to install Tenant’s equipment, phone, cable and furnishings. Tenant shall be subject to all
the terms and conditions of this Lease during such two week period.



     2.2 Removal of Tenant’s Property. Upon or prior to the termination of this Lease,
Tenant shall have the obligation to remove from the Premises and the Building all of its personal
property and trade fixtures, and peaceably surrender the Premises to Landlord in a clean and ready
to occupy condition. Such property of Tenant not so removed from the Premises or the Building upon
the termination of this Lease shall be considered abandoned by Tenant and may be disposed of by
Landlord in any manner whatsoever without accounting to Tenant for same or being liable in any way
to Tenant for such disposition. Upon surrender of possession of the Premises, Tenant shall deliver
to Landlord all keys to the Premises. Tenant shall not remove from the Premises and the Building
those Tenant improvements to the mechanical, electrical or plumbing systems of the Building.



     2.3 Holding Over. In no event shall there be any renewal of this Lease by operation
of law, and if Tenant remains in possession of the Premises after the termination of this Lease
without written authorization executed by Landlord and Tenant, but with the acquiescence or consent
of Landlord, Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying the Premises under a month-to-month periodic
tenancy at a monthly rental equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Base Rental as
adjusted by Rental Adjustment in effect during the last month of the Lease Term, plus all
additional rental provided for in this Lease, and otherwise subject to all the covenants and
provisions of this Lease insofar as the same are applicable to a month-to-month periodic tenancy.
Landlord and Tenant agree that any such periodic tenancy may be terminated by thirty (30) days
prior written notice by either party to the other party. If Tenant remains in possession after
termination of this Lease without Landlord’s acquiescence or consent, Tenant thereupon shall be
deemed a tenant-at-sufferance subject to summary eviction as provided by law.



     2.4 Assignment and Subleasing.




     (a) Tenant may not assign this Lease or sublease the Premises without obtaining the
prior written consent of Landlord which Landlord, which consent Landlord shall not
unreasonably withhold or delay.




     (b) Tenant agrees to pay, as additional rental, to Landlord, on demand, reasonable
costs incurred by Landlord (i) in connection with any request by Tenant for Landlord to
consent to any



2









 







assignment or subleasing by Tenant, and (ii) in providing any services or materials to
any assignee or sublessee of Tenant.




     (c) If, with the consent of Landlord, this Lease is assigned or the Premises or any
part thereof is subleased, Landlord may, after default by Tenant, collect rent from the
assignee, subtenant or occupant, and apply the net amount collected to the Base Rental and
additional rental herein reserved, but no such subleasing, occupancy or collection shall be
deemed (i) a waiver of any of Tenant’s covenants contained in this Lease, (ii) the
acceptance by Landlord of the subtenant as Tenant, or (iii) the release of Tenant from
further performance by Tenant of its covenants under this Lease.




     (d) Landlord’s approval of or consent to an assignment or sublease transaction shall
not operate to release Tenant from its liability hereunder, and shall not affect Landlord’s
rights under this Section 2.4 as to any subsequent proposed assignment or sublease.




     (e) Tenant covenants and agrees to deliver to Landlord one (1) fully executed
counterpart of the instruments and documents (including amendments thereto) evidencing any
approved assignment or subleasing effected pursuant to this Lease. Such delivery shall be
made promptly following the execution of any such instrument or document.

     3.2 Operating Expenses. Tenant acknowledges that in determining the Base Rental,
Landlord has assumed it will operate the Building during the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.,

Landlord the first full month Base Rental.



     3.6 Rent for Partial Months. A prorated monthly installment, based on a thirty (30)

PREPARATION, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR OF PREMISES




     4.1 Tenant Improvements. Landlord, at Landlord’s expense, shall repaint and re-carpet
the Premises and replace the missing ceiling tiles in the Premises with finishes mutually agreeable
to Landlord and Tenant, such cost not to exceed $7.50 per rentable square foot. Except as otherwise
provided in this Section 4.1, Tenant is accepting the Premises as is, and the Landlord shall have
no obligation whatsoever to perform and contribute to any additional tenant improvements for the
Premises. Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, may make additional improvements to the Premises with UCB’s
prior written consent. Improvements mutually agreed upon as of the date of this Lease are set
forth in Exhibit C.



     4.2 Repairs by Tenant. Tenant shall at its own expense keep the Premises in good
repair and tenantable condition and indemnify Landlord against any loss, damage or expense arising
by reason of any failure of Tenant so to keep the Premises in good repair and tenantable condition
or due to any act or neglect of Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, invitees, licensees,
tenants or assignees. If Tenant fails to perform, or cause to be performed, such maintenance and
repairs, then at the option of Landlord, in its sole discretion, any such maintenance or repair may
be performed or caused to be performed by Landlord and the cost and expense thereof charged to
Tenant, and Tenant shall pay the amount thereof to Landlord on demand as additional rental.
Without limitation, Tenant shall be obligated to maintain the mechanical, plumbing, and electrical
systems that are specific to the Laboratory space, and shall be responsible for maintaining such
areas in accordance with all applicable laws, rules, statutes, ordinances and codes during the
Term.



     4.3 Repairs by Landlord. Landlord shall at its own expense unless otherwise provided
herein keep and maintain in good order and repair the Common Areas of the Building. Additionally,
Landlord is responsible for maintaining and repairing the roof.



     4.4 Alterations by Tenant. Tenant shall make no structural alterations or additions
of any kind in or to the Premises. Tenant shall otherwise have the right to alter the Premises
with Landlord’s consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed so long as such alterations
comply with Landlord’s reasonable rules and regulations, all local law, rules and ordinances are
followed, and Tenant submits a governmentally approved set of plans to Landlord prior to
commencement of such alterations. If a building permit is required in connection with such work,
Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its approval of the Tenant’s plans
prior to submittal for permit applications. Landlord shall not assess any fees in connection with
its review.



     4.5 Discharge of Liens. Tenant is not authorized to contract for or on behalf of
Landlord for work on or the furnishing of materials to the Premises or any other part of the
Building. Tenant shall discharge of record by payment, bond or otherwise, within thirty (30) days
subsequent to the date of its receipt of notice thereof from Landlord, any mechanic’s, laborer’s or
similar lien filed against the Premises or the Building for work or materials claimed to have been
furnished at the instance of Tenant. If Tenant shall fail to cause such lien or claim of lien to
be so discharged or bonded within such period, in addition to any other right or remedy it may
have, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the same by paying the amount claimed
to be due or by procuring the discharge of such lien or claim by deposit in court or bonding, and
in any such event, Landlord shall be entitled, if Landlord so elects, to compel the prosecution of
any action for the foreclosure of such lien or claim by the claimant and to pay the amount of the
judgment, if any, in favor of the claimant, with interest, costs and allowances. Tenant shall pay
as additional rental on demand from time to time any sum or sums so paid by Landlord and all costs
and expenses incurred by Landlord, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees in
processing such discharge or in defending any such action.



     4.6 Damage and Destruction.




     (a) If the Building or Premises is damaged partially or wholly by fire, the elements,
act of God or other casualty, and if such damage cannot, in Landlord’s reasonable
estimation, be materially restored within one hundred twenty (120) days of such damage, then
either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date of such fire or casualty
and the Lease Term shall end on such date as if that date had been originally fixed in this
Lease for the expiration of the Lease Term. Landlord or Tenant shall exercise its option provided herein by written notice to the other within sixty
(60) days of such fire or other casualty.




4









 









     (b) If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to subsection (a) above, then Landlord,
within such one hundred twenty (120) day period, shall repair and restore to a condition
substantially the same as existing on the date of this Lease the Building or Premises, as
the case may be (except that Landlord may elect not to rebuild, and thus terminate this
Lease, if such damage occurs during the last year of the Lease Term, regardless of any term
extension option which is unexercised at the date of occurrence of the casualty). In the
event that Landlord shall fail to complete such repairs and material restoration within
sixty (60) days after the end of such 120 day period and Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the
Premises is then materially impaired by the uncompleted restoration, Tenant may at its
option and as its sole remedy terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to Landlord,
whereupon the Lease shall end on the date of such notice as if the date of such notice were
the date originally fixed in this Lease for the expiration of the term hereof; provided,
however, that if construction is delayed because of changes, deletions or additions in
construction requested by Tenant, or because of strikes, lockouts, casualties, acts of God,
war, material or labor shortages, governmental regulation or control or other causes beyond
the reasonable control of Landlord, the period for restoration, repair or rebuilding shall
be extended for the amount of time Landlord is so delayed. In no event shall Landlord be
required to rebuild, repair or replace any personal property, equipment or trade fixtures
which belong to Tenant.




     (c) If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to this Section 4.6 and if the Premises
are unfit for occupancy in whole or in part following such damage, the Base Rental and
Rental Adjustment payable during the period in which the Premises are unfit for occupancy
shall be reduced in proportion to the number of square feet of Rentable Area of the premises
rendered unusable by such damage.




     (d) Any insurance which may be carried by Landlord or Tenant against loss or damage to
the Building or Premises shall be for the sole benefit of the party carrying such insurance
and under its sole control except that Landlord’s insurance may be subject to control by the
holder or holders of any indebtedness secured by a mortgage or deed to secure debt covering
any interest of Landlord in the Premises or the Building.




     (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the holder of any
indebtedness secured by a mortgage or deed to secure debt covering the Premises or Building
requires that any insurance proceeds be paid to it, then Landlord shall have the right to
terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Tenant within fifteen
(15) days after such requirement is made by any such holder, whereupon the Lease shall end
on the date of such damage as if the date of such damage were the date originally fixed in
this Lease for the expiration of the Lease Term.




     (f) If any such casualty stated in this Section 4.6 occurs, Landlord shall not be
liable to Tenant for inconvenience, annoyance, loss of profits, expenses or any other type
of injury or damage resulting from the repair of any such damage, or from any repair,
modification, arranging or rearranging of any portion of the Premises or any part or all of
the Building or for termination of this Lease as provided in this Section 4.6.



     4.7 Eminent Domain.




     (a) If all or any substantial part of the Building or of the Premises should be taken
for any public or quasi-public use under governmental law, ordinance or regulation or by
right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, and the taking would
prevent or materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises for the purpose for which
it is then being used, this Lease shall terminate effective when the physical taking shall
occur in the same manner as if the date of such taking were the date originally fixed in
this Lease for the expiration of the Lease Term.




     (b) If part of the Building or Premises is taken for any public or quasi-public use
under any governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain or by
private purchase in lieu thereof, and this Lease is not terminated as provided in subsection
(a) above, this Lease shall not terminate



5









 







but the Base Rental and Rental Adjustment payable hereunder during the unexpired
portion of this Lease shall be reduced to such extent, if any, as may be fair and reasonable
under all of the circumstances and Landlord shall undertake to restore the Building and
Premises to a condition suitable for Tenant’s use, as near to the condition thereof
immediately prior to such taking as is reasonably feasible under the circumstances.




     (c) Tenant shall not share in any condemnation award or payment in lieu thereof or in
any award for damages resulting from any grade change of adjacent streets, the same being
hereby assigned to Landlord by Tenant; provided, however, that Tenant may, to the extent
provided by law, separately claim against and receive from the condemning authority, if
legally payable, compensation for Tenant’s removal, relocation costs, loss of business,
business interruption and loss of trade fixtures, but only if and to the extent no such
claim or award therefor will reduce or affect Landlord’s awards.




     (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.7, if during
the Lease Term the use or occupancy of any part of the Building or Premises shall be taken
or appropriated temporarily for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental law,
ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, this Lease shall be and remain
unaffected by such taking or appropriation and Tenant shall continue to pay in full all
rental payable hereunder by Tenant during the Lease Term provided Tenant’s Premises is not
affected. In the event of any such temporary appropriation or taking, Tenant shall be
entitled to receive that portion of any award which represents compensation for the loss of
use or occupancy of the Premises during the Lease Term, and Landlord shall be entitled to
receive that portion of any award which represents the cost of restoration and compensation
for the loss of use or occupancy of the Premises after the end of the term of this Lease.



     4.8 Reports of Defects. Tenant shall report to Landlord immediately in writing any
damage to or defective condition in or about the Building or Premises known to Tenant.



     4.9 Landlord’s Right to Enter Premises. Tenant shall not change the locks on any
entrance to the Premises or install additional locks without Landlord’s prior written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed by Landlord. Upon Tenant’s written
request to Landlord, Landlord will make a reasonable change of locks on behalf of Tenant and at
Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Landlord and its agents, employees and contractors upon
forty-eight (48) hours’ prior telephonic notice shall have the right to enter the Premises at such
times as Landlord deems reasonably necessary to make necessary repairs, additions, alterations and
improvements to the Building, including, without limitation, the erection, use and maintenance of
pipes and conduits and repairs to adjacent premises or other premises. Landlord shall also be
allowed to take into and through the Premises any and all needed materials that may be required to
make such repairs, additions, alterations and improvements. During such time as work is being
carried on, in or about the Premises, provided such work is carried out in a manner so as not to
interfere unreasonably with the conduct of Tenant’s business therein, the rent provided herein
shall in no wise abate. In the event of emergency, or if otherwise necessary to prevent injury to
persons or damage to property, such entry to the Premises may be made without prior notice and by
force, if necessary.

     (a) The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an event of default
(“Default”) by Tenant hereunder:

within five (5) business days from designated due date;




     (ii) Tenant’s interest in the Lease or the Premises shall be subjected to any

Rules and Regulations in Exhibit “B” hereto, as the same may hereafter be amended
from time to time, and such breach or failure shall continue for more than thirty

breach or failure from Landlord; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not
apply to amended rules that unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s intended use of the
Premises.




     (iv) Tenant breaches or fails to comply with any other term, provision,
condition or covenant of this Lease, and such breach or failure shall continue for
more than thirty (30) days subsequent to the date of receipt by Tenant of written
notice of such breach or failure from Landlord if the matter in question is not
reasonably susceptible of cure by Tenant within the 30-day period, then Tenant shall
have such additional time as may reasonably be necessary, but no more than an
additional seventy (70) days, within which to effect curative action provided that
Tenant institutes the curative action within the 30-day period and prosecutes the
same diligently to completion;




     (v) Tenant, if a corporation, joint venture, partnership, limited liability
company, limited partnership or trust, without Landlord’s prior written consent and
the written assumption of this Lease by another party approved by Landlord, both in
Landlord’s discretion, shall be dissolved or its status as an entity is terminated;
or




     (vi) If Tenant is a joint venture, trust, general partnership, limited

state insolvency laws or of any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code.



     (b) Upon the occurrence of a Default, Landlord shall have the option to do and perform
any one or more of the following in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other remedy
or right permitted it at law or in equity or by this Lease:



9









 






     (i) Landlord, with or without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at any
time thereafter reenter the Premises and perform, correct or repair any condition
which shall constitute a failure on Tenant’s part to keep, observe, perform, satisfy
or abide by any term, condition, covenant, agreement or obligation of this Lease or
of the Rules and Regulations now in effect or hereafter adopted, and Tenant shall
fully reimburse and compensate Landlord on demand for all costs and expenses incurred
by Landlord in such performance, correction or repairing, including accrued interest
as provided in the next sentence. All sums so expended to cure Default shall accrue
interest from the date of demand until date of payment at a rate of interest which is

(y) sixteen percent (16%) per annum, but in no event at a rate higher than that
permitted by applicable law.




     (ii) Landlord, with or without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at any
time thereafter demand in writing that Tenant vacate the Premises and thereupon
Tenant shall vacate the Premises and remove therefrom all property thereon belonging
to or placed on the Premises by, at the direction of or with consent of Tenant within
ten (10) days of receipt by Tenant of such notice from Landlord, whereupon Landlord
shall have the right to reenter and take possession of the Premises. Any such
demand, reentry and taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall not of itself
constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of this Lease or of the Premises
by Tenant and shall not of itself constitute a termination of this Lease by Landlord.




     (iii) Landlord, with or without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at
any time thereafter reenter the Premises and remove therefrom Tenant and all property
belonging to or placed on the Premises by, at the direction of or with consent of
Tenant. Any such reentry and removal by Landlord shall not of itself constitute an
acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of this Lease or of the Premises by Tenant and
shall not of itself constitute a termination of this Lease by Landlord.




     (iv) Landlord, with or without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at any
time thereafter relet the Premises or any part thereof for such time or times, at
such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its
sole discretion may deem advisable, and Landlord may make any alterations or repairs
to the Premises which it may deem necessary or proper to facilitate such reletting;
and Tenant shall pay all costs of such reletting including but not limited to the
cost of any such alterations and repairs to the Premises, reasonable attorneys’ fees
and brokerage commissions; and if this Lease shall not have been terminated, Tenant
shall continue to pay all rent and all other charges due under this Lease up to and
including the date of beginning of payment of rent by any subsequent tenant of part
or all of the Premises, and thereafter Tenant shall pay monthly during the remainder
of the term of this Lease the difference, if any, between the rent and other charges
collected from any such subsequent tenant or tenants and the rent and other charges
reserved in this Lease, but Tenant shall not be entitled to receive any excess of any
such rents collected over the rents reserved herein.




     (v) Landlord may immediately or at any time thereafter terminate this Lease, and
this Lease shall be deemed to have been terminated upon receipt by Tenant of written
notice of such termination; upon such termination Landlord shall recover from Tenant
all damages Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination including, without
limitation, unamortized sums expended by Landlord for construction of Tenant
Improvements, all arrearages in rentals, costs, charges, additional rentals and
reimbursements, the cost (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) of
recovering possession of the Premises, the cost of any alteration of or repair to the
Premises which is necessary or proper to prepare the same for reletting and, in
addition thereto, Landlord at its election shall have and recover as damages from
Tenant rents and other charges which Landlord would be entitled to receive from
Tenant pursuant to the provisions of clause (iv) of this subsection (b) above if the
Lease were not terminated.




     (c) In the event Landlord institutes dispossessory proceedings or dispossesses or
evicts Tenant by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord shall have the option to do and
perform any one or more of the foregoing in addition to, and not in limitation of, any
remedy or right permitted it by law or in



10









 






equity or by this Lease. Specifically, without limiting the foregoing, in the event
Landlord institutes dispossessory proceedings or dispossesses or evicts Tenant by summary
proceedings or otherwise and/or re-enters and takes possession of the Premises, Tenant shall
remain liable for all rent (including Base Rental, Rental Adjustment and additional rental)
and all other charges under the Lease for the remainder of the Lease Term.




     (d) No course of dealing between Landlord and Tenant or any failure or delay on the
part of Landlord in exercising any rights of Landlord under this Section 8.1 or under any
other provisions of this Lease shall operate as a waiver of any rights of Landlord hereunder
or under any other provisions of this Lease, nor shall any waiver of a Default on one
occasion operate as a waiver of any subsequent Default or of any other Default. No express
waiver shall affect any condition, covenant, rule or regulation other than the one specified
in such waiver and that one only for the time and in the manner specifically stated.




     (e) The exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the rights and remedies provided in
this Lease shall not prevent the subsequent exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the
other rights and remedies herein provided. All remedies provided for in this Lease are
cumulative and may, at the election of Landlord, be exercised alternatively, successively or
in any other manner and are in addition to any other rights provided for or allowed by law
or in equity.



     8.2 Insolvency or Bankruptcy. The making by Tenant of an assignment for the benefit
of its creditors, the appointment under state law of a receiver to take possession of all or
substantially all of Tenant’s assets, or the voluntary or involuntary involvement of Tenant as a
principal in a state law insolvency or reorganization proceeding, may, at the option of Landlord,
be deemed and declared a Default by Tenant hereunder. Tenant covenants and agrees promptly to
notify Landlord in writing of (i) the occurrence of any of the events described in the preceding
sentence or any event similar thereto, whether occurring in Georgia or any other jurisdiction, and
(ii) the institution by or against Tenant of any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code
including a copy of the petition filed to initiate such proceeding.



     8.3 Late Payments. Tenant shall pay, in the event Base Rental, additional rental or
other charge to be paid by Tenant hereunder are not paid when due, (A) a late fee of five percent
(5%) of the amount past due, which late fee Tenant acknowledges is an agreed reimbursement to
Landlord for the administrative expense incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s late payment
and not a penalty; and (B) interest on the amount past due (excluding late fees) at a rate which is
the lower of (x) a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus two percent (2%), or (y) sixteen
percent (16%) per annum, but in no event at a rate higher than that permitted by applicable law,
from due date until paid. Should Tenant make a partial payment of past due amounts, the amount of
such partial payment shall be applied first, to late fees, second, to accrued but unpaid interest,
and third, to past due amounts, in inverse order of their due date.



     8.4 Attorneys’ Fees for Collection. If any Base Rental, additional rental or other
debt owing by Tenant to Landlord hereunder is collected by or through an attorney-at-law, Tenant
agrees to pay the reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord in such collection action.



     8.5 No Waiver of Rights. No failure or delay of either party to exercise any right or
power given it herein or to insist upon strict compliance by the other party of any obligation
imposed on it herein and no custom or practice of either party hereto at variance with any term
hereof shall constitute a waiver or a modification of the terms hereof by either party or any right
it has herein to demand strict compliance with the terms hereof by the other party. Neither party
has or shall have any authority to waive any provision of this Lease unless such waiver is
expressly made in writing.

or times, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord or to the holder of any mortgage, deed to

hereunder during the period such party has possession of all or such portion of the Building and/or
the land underlying the Building which it has purchased or leased. Should all of the land
underlying the Building and the entire Building be severed as to ownership by sale and/or lease,
then, unless the Tenant is otherwise notified to the contrary in writing, either the owner of the
entire Building or the lessee of the entire Building, as the case may be, which has the right to
lease space in the Building to tenants shall be deemed the “Landlord”. Tenant shall be bound to
any successor landlord for all the terms, covenants and conditions hereof and shall execute any
attornment agreement not in conflict herewith at the request of any successor landlord.



     9.9 Georgia Law. The laws of the State of Georgia shall govern the interpretation,
validity, performance and enforcement of this Lease.

specifically provided otherwise, all references to terms of days or months shall be construed as
references to calendar days or calendar months, respectively.

which shall be deemed an original and any of which shall be deemed to be complete in itself and may
be introduced into evidence or used for any purpose without the production of the other
counterparts.

disputes, governmental regulations, riots, war, terrorism, insurrection, acts of God or other
causes beyond the control of the party whose performance is being excused (but such causes shall
not include insufficiency of funds).

not to record or permit the recording of this Lease.



     9.16 Hazardous Substances.




     (a) Tenant hereby covenants that Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous
Substances to be placed, held, located or disposed of in, on or at the Premises or any part
thereof, and neither the Premises nor any part thereof shall ever be used as a dump site or

     (b) Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord harmless from and
against any and all losses, liabilities, including strict liability, damages, injuries,
expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of any settlement or judgment and
claims of any and every kind whatsoever paid, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against,
Landlord by any person or entity or governmental agency for, with respect to, or as a direct
or indirect result of, the presence on or under, or the escape, seepage, leakage, spillage,
discharge, emission, discharging or release from, the Premises of any Hazardous Substance,
laboratory chemicals and/or medical waste (including, without limitation, any losses,
liabilities, including strict liability, damages, injuries, expenses, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees, costs of any settlement or judgment or claims asserted or arising under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, any so-called federal,
state or local “Superfund” or “Superlien” laws, statute, law, ordinance, code, rule,
regulation, order or decree regulating, relating to or imposing liability, including strict
liability, substances or standards of conduct concerning any Hazardous Substance, laboratory
chemicals and/or medical waste), provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity is limited
to matters arising solely from Tenant’s violation of the covenant contained in subsection
(a) of this Section 9.16.




     (c) For purposes of this Lease, “Hazardous Substances” shall mean and include those
elements or compounds which are contained in the list of hazardous substances now or
hereafter adopted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) or the
list of toxic pollutants designated by Congress or the EPA or which are now or hereafter
defined as hazardous, toxic, pollutant, infectious or radioactive by any other Federal,

relating to, or imposing liability or standards of conduct concerning, any hazardous, toxic
or dangerous waste, substance or material, as now or at any time hereafter in effect.




     (d) Landlord shall have the right but not the obligation, and without limitation of
Landlord’s rights under this Lease, to enter onto the Premises or to take such other actions
as it deems necessary or advisable to cleanup, remove, resolve or minimize the impact of, or
otherwise deal with, any Hazardous Substance following receipt of any notice from any person
or entity (including without limitation the EPA) asserting the existence of any Hazardous
Substance in, on or at the Premises or any part thereof which, if true, could result in an
order, suit or other action against Tenant or Landlord or both. All reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by Landlord in the exercise of any such rights, which costs and expenses
result from Tenant’s violation of the covenant contained in subsection (a) above, shall be
deemed additional rental under this Lease and shall be payable by Tenant upon demand.




     (e) This Section 9.16 shall survive cancellation, termination or expiration of this
Lease.



14









 






     (f) Except as otherwise provided herein, Landlord assumes all responsibility for
compliance by the property/site/facility with all environmental laws, rules and regulations
and agrees to and does hereby hold Tenant harmless from any claims, liabilities, fines or
penalties which may be made or levied against Tenant on account thereof for any pre—lease
or pre-existing conditions. Landlord represents that the Premises are free from asbestos
and other hazardous substances.



     9.17 Names. Upon written notice to Tenant, Landlord reserves the right, from time to
time, to change the name of the development, the name of the Building and the street address of the
Building. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, any name given the
development, the Building or any other deceptively similar name, or use any associated service mark
or logo of the development or the Building for any purpose other than Tenant’s business address.



     9.18 Shared Communications Services. Landlord may contract with a vendor (the “Shared
Services Vendor”) to make available to tenants of the Building certain shared communications
services. With respect to such shared communications services, if and so long as available,
Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:




     (a) Tenant, at its election, may contract with Shared Services Vendor or any other
vendor for communications services. Tenant may make such election at its sole and absolute
discretion.




     (b) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Shared Services Vendor is an independent
contractor of Landlord and not Landlord’s employee, agent, partner or joint venturer and
Tenant waives any and all right Tenant may have or claim to have to assert the contrary.




     (c) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that any cessation or interruption of shared
communications services or default by Shared Services Vendor under the terms and conditions
of Tenant’s agreement with Shared Services Vendor shall not constitute a default under this
Lease nor a constructive eviction by Landlord of Tenant. Tenant agrees that it shall not
abate or setoff against any amount of Base Rental, Rental Adjustment, additional rent or
other sum due under this Lease for any claim against Shared Services Vendor or for a default
under Tenant’s agreement with Shared Services Vendor. Tenant waives and releases Landlord
from any and all claims Tenant may have, now or in the future, against Landlord, if any,
that arise from or are related to the acts, omissions, negligence or gross negligence of
Shared Services Vendor or its agents and employees.



     9.19 Ownership and Management Disclosure. Landlord discloses to Tenant, and Tenant
acknowledges, that Landlord is the owner of record of the Building and the Premises.



     9.20 Effect of Lease Termination. No termination of this Lease by reason of exercise
of an optional right, lapse of time, failure of condition or election of a party to terminate shall
release or otherwise relieve either party from liability for breach of this Lease or from
performance of any contractual obligation provided herein accruing prior to such termination. The
possessory rights of Tenant, however, shall cease and expire as of the effective time of any such
termination.



     9.21 Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants with Tenant that Tenant shall peaceably hold
and enjoy the Premises during the full term of this Lease and any extension and renewals upon
paying the rent and performing its covenants herein contained, subject only to the terms of this
Lease and any interests of record to which this Lease may be or become subject and subordinate.

talking machine, unmusical noise, whistling, singing or in any other way. Tenant shall not
throw anything out of the doors, windows or skylights or down the passageways. Tenant
shall not cause or permit any unseemly or disturbing activity or conduct to be visible
through any window, opening, doorway, glass storefront or other glass surface or any other
means of visibility that disturbs or interferes with (i) tenants or other occupants of the
building or their licensees or invitees or (ii) neighboring buildings or



 









 




premises or those having business with them, including without limitation, receptions,
parties, recreation and other activities of a social nature not directly related to
Tenant’s use of the Premises.




     11. Neither Tenant, nor any of Tenant’s servants, employees, agents, visitors or
licensees, shall at any time bring or keep upon the Premises any inflammable, combustible
or explosive fluid or chemical substance, other than reasonable amounts of cleaning fluids
or solvents required in the normal operation of Tenant’s business.



     12. No additional locks or bolts of any kind shall be placed upon any of the doors or
windows by Tenant, nor shall any changes be made in existing locks or the mechanism
thereof, without the prior written approval of Landlord and unless and until a duplicate
key is delivered to Landlord. Tenant shall, upon the termination of its tenancy, restore
to Landlord all keys of stores, offices and toilet rooms, either furnished to, or
otherwise procured by, Tenant, and in the event of the loss of any keys so furnished,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost thereof.



     13. Tenant shall not overload any floor. Tenant shall obtain Landlord’s consent before
bringing any safes, freight, furniture or bulky articles into the Building and Landlord
can specify to Tenant the location for the placement of such articles. All removals, or
the carrying in or out of any safes, freight, furniture or bulky matter of any description
must take place during the hours which Landlord or its agent may determine from time to
time. Landlord reserves the right to inspect all freight to be brought into the Building
and to exclude from the Building all freight which violates any of these Rules and
Regulations or the Lease of which these Rules and Regulations are a part.



     14. Tenant shall not occupy or permit any portion of the Premises to be occupied, without
Landlord’s expressed prior written consent, as an office for a public stenographer or
typist, or for the possession, storage, manufacture or sale of liquor, narcotics, dope,
tobacco in any form, or as a barber or manicure shop, or as a public employment bureau or
agency, or for a public finance (personal loan) business; provided, however, nothing in
this sentence shall be deemed to prohibit Tenant or its employees or business invitees
from personal use of tobacco. Tenant shall not engage or pay any employees on the
Premises, except those actually working for Tenant on said premises, nor advertise for
laborers giving an address at the Building. Tenant shall not keep or utilize any jukebox,

     15. Tenant agrees to employ such janitorial contractor as Landlord may from time to time
designate, for any waxing, polishing and other maintenance work of the Premises and of the
Tenant’s furniture, fixtures and equipment. Tenant agrees that it shall not employ any
other cleaning and maintenance contractor, nor any individual, firm or organization for
such purpose without Landlord’s prior written consent.



     16. Landlord shall have the right to prohibit any advertising by Tenant which, in
Landlord’s opinion, tends to impair the reputation of the Building or its desirability as
a building for offices, and upon written notice from Landlord, Tenant shall refrain from
or discontinue such advertising.



     17. Landlord reserves the right to exclude from the Building between the hours of 6:00
p.m. and 7:00 a.m. and at all hours on Sundays, legal holidays and after 2:00 p.m. on
Saturdays all persons who do not sign in and out on a register in the lobby of the
Building, showing the name of the person, the Premises visited and the time of arrival and
departure. All such persons entering or leaving the Building during such times may be
expected to be questioned by the Building security personnel as to their business in the
Building. Landlord shall in no case be liable for damages for any error with regard to the
admission to or exclusion from the Building of any person. In the case of invasion, mob,
riot, public excitement or other circumstances rendering such action advisable in the
Landlord’s opinion, Landlord reserves the right to prevent access to the Building during
the continuance of the same by such action as Landlord may deem appropriate, including
closing doors.



     18. The Premises shall not be used for lodging or sleeping or for any immoral or illegal
purpose or for any other activity not appropriate, in Landlord’s sole discretion, to an
office building of the quality and stature of the Building.



 









 





     19. The requirements of Tenant will be attended to only upon application at the office of
the Building. Building employees shall not perform any work or do anything outside of

trucks, except those equipped with rubber tires and side guards. No hand trucks shall be
used in passenger elevators.



     22. Tenant, in order to obtain maximum effectiveness of the cooling system, shall lower
and/or close the blinds or drapes when sun’s rays fall directly on windows of Premises.
Tenant shall not remove the standard blinds installed in the Premises.



     23. All paneling, rounds or other wood products not considered furniture shall be of fire
retardant materials. Before installation of any such materials, certification of the

a manner satisfactory to Landlord.

without Landlord’s consent.



     25. All articles and the arrangement style, color and general appearance thereof, in the
interior of the Premises that will be visible from the exterior thereof, including,
without limitation, window displays, advertising matter, signs, merchandise, furniture and
store fixtures, shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, and, in any case, shall be
maintained in keeping with the character and standards of the development of which the
Building is a part.



     26. Landlord may waive any one or more of these Rules and Regulations for the benefit of
any particular Tenant or Tenants, but no such waiver by Landlord shall be construed as a
waiver of such Rules and Regulations in favor of any other Tenant or Tenants, nor prevent
Landlord from thereafter enforcing any such Rules and Regulations against any or all of
the Tenants of the Building.



     27. Tenant shall abide by no-smoking restrictions in all areas within the Building, other
than spaces, designated or posted by Landlord as smoking areas.



     28. These Rules and Regulations are in addition to, and shall not be construed to in any
way modify or amend, in whole or part, the terms, covenants, agreements and conditions of
the main text (including Special Stipulations) of the Lease, which text shall control in
the instance of conflict.



     29. Landlord reserves the right to make such other and reasonable rules and regulations as
in its judgment may from time to time be needed for safety, care and cleanliness of the
Building, and for the preservation of good order therein. Such other Rules and Regulations
shall be effective upon written notification of Tenant.
