Claim, containing (by attachment or otherwise) such other information as such Indemnified Person
shall have concerning such Third Person Claim.

Claim, the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person shall observe the procedures set forth
in Section 11(d) hereof.

Third Person Claim, the Indemnifying Person’s legal Representative shall have thirty (30) days to
object to such Indemnification Claim by delivering a written notice of such objection to such
Indemnified Person specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such objection. Failure to so
object in a timely manner shall constitute a final and binding acceptance of the Indemnification

Indemnifying Person’s Representative written notice of a Third Person Claim promptly after receipt
by the Indemnified Person of notice thereof, and the Indemnifying Person’s Representative, on
behalf of the Indemnifying Persons, may undertake the defense, compromise and settlement thereof
by Representatives of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person. The
failure of the Indemnified Person to notify the Indemnifying Person’s Representative of such Claim
shall not relieve the Indemnifying Persons of any Liability that the Indemnifying Persons may have
with respect to such Claim except to the extent the Indemnifying Person’s Representative
demonstrates that the defense of such Claim is prejudiced by such failure.



               (ii) Acknowledgement of Obligation to Indemnify. The Indemnifying Person’s assumption
of the defense, compromise or settlement of any such Third Person Claim shall be the Indemnifying
Person’s acknowledgment of its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Person with respect to such
Claim hereunder, unless the Indemnifying Person gives written notice to the Indemnified Person
within ten (10) days after receipt of the Indemnified Person’s notice that it Disputes its
liability to Indemnified Person with respect to such Third Person Claim notwithstanding its
assumption of the defense thereof.



               (iii) Indemnified Person’s Participation in Defense. If the Indemnified Person
desires to participate in, but not control, any such defense, compromise or settlement, it may do
so at its sole cost and expense. If, however, the Indemnifying Person’s Representative fails or
refuses to undertake the defense of such Third Person Claim within ten (10) days after written
notice of such Claim has been given to the Indemnifying Person Representative by the Indemnified
Person, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise and/or
settlement of such Claim with counsel of its own choosing. In the circumstances described in the
preceding sentence, the Indemnified Person shall, promptly upon its assumption of the defense of
such Claim, be deemed to have made an Indemnification Claim that is not a Third Person Claim for
the purposes of the procedures set forth herein.

                    (A) If, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Person, any Third Person Claim or the
Action or resolution thereof involves an issue or matter that could reasonably have a Material
Adverse Effect on the Indemnified Person’s business, operations, assets, properties or prospects,
including, but not limited to, the administration of the Tax returns and responsibilities under
the Tax Laws of the Indemnified Person:



                         (I) the Indemnified Person shall have the right to control the defense, compromise and/or
settlement of such Third Person Claim undertaken by the Indemnifying Person’s Representative;



                         (II) the Indemnified Person shall initially pay the fees, costs and expenses of the
Indemnified Person’s legal, accounting and consulting Representatives or any other Person retained
by the Indemnified Person in connection with the aforementioned defense, compromise and/or
settlement; and



                         (III) such fees, costs, expenses and all other Damages paid, suffered or incurred by the
Indemnified Person resulting from, based upon or arising out of such Third Person Claim shall be
included as part of the indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Persons hereunder.



15









 





                    (B) If the Indemnified Person shall elect to exercise such right, the Indemnifying
Person’s Representative shall have the right to participate in, but not control, the defense,
compromise and/or settlement of such Third Person Claim at its sole cost and expense.



               (v) Certain Settlements By The Indemnified Person Are Subject To The Indemnifying
Person’s Consent. No settlement of a Third Person Claim involving the asserted Liability of
any Indemnifying Person under this Article shall be made without the prior written consent by or
on behalf of the Indemnifying Person’s Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. Consent shall be presumed in the case of settlements of ten thousand dollars
($10,000) or less where the Indemnifying Person’s Representative has not responded within ten (10)
Business Days of such Representative’s receipt of written notice of such proposed settlement.



               (vi) Certain Settlements By The Indemnifying Person Are Subject to The Indemnified
Person’s Consent. If the Indemnifying Person’s Representative assumes the defense of such a
Third Person Claim:



                    (A) no compromise or settlement thereof may be effected by the Indemnifying Person’s
Representative without the Indemnified Person’s consent unless:



                         (I) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Applicable Requirements or any
violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other Claim that may be made against the
Indemnified Person;



                         (II) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying
Persons; and



                         (III) the compromise or settlement includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by
the Claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Person of a release, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, from all Liability in respect of such Third Person Claim;
and



                         (IV) the Indemnified Person shall have no Liability with respect to any compromise or
settlement thereof effected without its consent.



               (vii) Cooperation; Participation of Counsel; Access to Records.



                    (A) Third Person Claims. In connection with the defense, compromise or settlement of

accounting and other Representatives of each Party during normal business hours to all properties,
personnel, books, tax records, contracts, commitments and all other business records of such other
Party and will furnish to such other Party copies of all such documents as may reasonably be
requested (certified, if requested).



                    (B) Agency Claims. Intentionally deleted.



               (viii) Statutes of Limitation. Subject to the approval of a Party’s insurance
carrier, if a Third Person Claim is brought against a Party with respect to which either Party may
have a Claim against the other, the Parties shall execute a statute of limitation tolling
agreement as to such Claims until the Third Person Claim is resolved.



          (e) Payment of Indemnification Claim. Upon determination of the amount of an Indemnification
Claim, whether by agreement between the Indemnifying Person’s Representative and the Indemnified
Person or by an arbitration award or by any other final adjudication, the Indemnifying Persons

prior to the condemnation or other taking; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be
obligated to use any other funds to restore the Premises.



          (e) Award. Except as set forth in Section 14(d)(ii)(C), Landlord shall receive the entire
award or other compensation for the Land, the Building and other improvements that are subject to a

good faith estimate of the time needed to repair the damage caused by such Casualty.




          (b) Tenant’s Rights. Tenant may terminate this Lease immediately up providing written notice
thereof to Landlord if: (i) a portion of the Building or Premises is damaged by Casualty such that
Tenant is prevented from conducting its business in the Premises or the Building in a manner
substantially the same as that conducted immediately before such Casualty; and (ii) Landlord
estimates that the damage caused thereby cannot be repaired within 180 days from the date of such
Casualty (or, regardless of such estimate, if such damages are not repaired within 180 days from
the date of such Casualty).




          (c) Landlord’s Rights. Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving written notice of its
election to terminate within 30 days after the Damage Notice has been delivered to Tenant if a
Casualty damages the Premises or a material portion of the Building and: (i) Landlord estimates
that the damage to the Premises cannot be repaired within 180 days from the date of such Casualty;
(ii) the damage to the Premises exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the replacement cost thereof
(excluding foundations and footings), as estimated by Landlord, and such damage occurs during the
last two (2) years of the Term; (iii) the damage to the Premises exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the
replacement cost thereof (excluding foundations and footings) and is not substantially covered by
Landlord’s insurance policies by reason of an exclusion from such policies outside of Landlord’s
control (e.g., such policies exclude Casualties caused by terrorist attack); or (iv) Landlord is
required to pay the insurance proceeds arising out of the Casualty to a Landlord’s Mortgagee.




          (d) Repair Obligation. If neither Party elects to terminate this Lease following a Casualty,
Landlord shall, within a commercially reasonable time after the date of such Casualty: (i) begin to
repair the Premises; and (ii) proceed with commercially reasonable diligence to restore the
Premises to substantially the same condition as they existed immediately before such Casualty.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be required to repair or replace any: (A)
alterations or betterments within the Premises, which shall be promptly and with due diligence
repaired and restored by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense; or (B) furniture, equipment,
trade fixtures or personal property in the Premises or the Building that is owned or leased by
Tenant or any Person other than






19









 







Landlord. Landlord’s obligation to repair or restore the Premises shall be limited to the
extent of the insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord for the Casualty in question;
provided, however, that any shortfall in insurance proceeds caused by Landlord’s failure to
comply with its insurance obligations in Section 10(b) shall be deemed to be a Landlord Event
of Default. If this Lease is terminated under the provisions of this Section 15, Landlord
shall be entitled to the full proceeds of the insurance policies providing coverage for all
alterations, improvements and betterments in the Premises (and, if Tenant has failed to
maintain insurance on such items as required by Section 15(a) of this Lease, Tenant shall pay
Landlord an amount equal to the proceeds Landlord would have received had Tenant maintained
insurance on such items as required by this Lease).




          (e) Abatement of Rent. If the Premises are damaged by Casualty, Rent for the portion of
the Premises rendered untenantable by the damage shall be abated on a reasonable basis from
the date of such damage until the: (i) completion of Landlord’s repairs; or (ii) date of
termination of this Lease by Landlord or Tenant as provided above. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant shall continue to pay Rent without abatement if a Tenant Party was the
direct cause of the Casualty causing such damage.




     16. Personal
Property Taxes. Tenant shall be liable for all taxes levied or
assessed against personal property, furniture, or fixtures placed by Tenant in the Premises or in
or on the Building or Project. Tenant shall repay to Landlord within thirty (30) days following
written request therefore any taxes that Landlord has elected to pay relating to: (i) taxes for
which Tenant is liable and that are levied or assessed against Landlord or Landlord’s property;
and/or (ii) any increase in the assessed value of Landlord’s property by inclusion of such
Tenant’s personal property, furniture or fixtures. Landlord shall not pay such amount if: (A)
Tenant notifies Landlord that Tenant will contest the validity or amount of such taxes before
Landlord makes such payment; (B) Tenant thereafter diligently proceeds with such contest in
accordance with Applicable Law; and (C) the non-payment thereof does not pose a threat of loss or
seizure of the Project or Landlord’s interest therein or impose any fee or penalty against
Landlord.



     17. Events
of Default. Each of the following occurrences
shall be an Event of Default:



          (a) Tenant Event of Default.




               (i) Payment Default. Tenant’s failure to pay Rent by the first day of each month
during the Term of this Lease, unless subject to abatement or otherwise excused hereunder.



               (ii) Estoppel. Tenant fails to provide any estoppel certificate after Landlord’s
written request therefor pursuant to Section 23(d) and such failure shall continue for five (5)
Business Days after Landlord’s second written notice thereof to Tenant.



               (iii) Insurance. Tenant fails to procure, maintain and deliver to Landlord evidence of
the insurance policies and coverages as required under Section 10(a) and such failure shall

               (iv) Mechanic’s Liens. Tenant fails to pay and release of record, or diligently
contest and bond around, any mechanic’s lien filed against the Premises or the Project for any
work performed, materials furnished, or obligation incurred by or at the request of Tenant,
within the time and in the manner required by Section 7(f)(ii).



               (v) Other Defaults. Tenant fails to perform, comply with, or observe any other
material agreement or obligation of Tenant under this Lease and the continuance of such failure
for a period of more than thirty (30) days after Landlord has delivered to Tenant written
notice thereof.



               (vi) Insolvency. The filing of a petition by or against Tenant (the term “Tenant”
shall include, for the purpose of this Section 17(a)(vi) any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations
hereunder): (i) any bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding; (ii) seeking any relief under any
state or federal debtor relief law; (iii) for the appointment of a liquidator or receiver for
all or substantially all of Tenant’s property or for Tenant’s interest in this Lease; (iv) for

20









 











               (i) Insurance. Landlord fails to procure, maintain and deliver to Tenant evidence of

material agreement or obligation of Landlord under this Lease and the continuance of such failure
for a period of more than thirty (30) days after Tenant has delivered to Landlord written notice
thereof.



               (iii) Insolvency. The filing of a petition by or against Landlord (the term

assignment for the benefit of creditors proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such
petition filed against Landlord shall not be an Event of Default if Landlord causes such
proceedings to be dismissed within ninety (90) days after the filing thereof.



          (c) Notice Periods. Any notice periods provided for under this Section 17 shall run
concurrently with any statutory notice periods and any notice given hereunder may be given
simultaneously with or incorporated into any such statutory notice.




     18. Remedies.



          (a) Landlord’s Remedies. Upon any Tenant Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to
all other rights and remedies afforded Landlord hereunder or by law or equity, take any one or
more of the following actions:




               (i) Termination of Lease. Terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice
thereof, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord
for Landlord’s account, and pay to Landlord the sum of: (A) all amounts due under Section 19(a);
and (B) all accrued Rent and other sums hereunder required to be paid through the date of
termination;



               (ii) Termination of Possession. Terminate Tenant’s right to possess the Premises
without terminating this Lease by giving written notice thereof to Tenant, in which event Tenant
shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord for Tenant’s account and pay
to Landlord: (A) all Rent and other amounts accrued hereunder to the date of termination; (B) all
amounts due from time to time under Section 19(a); and (C) all Rent and other net sums required
hereunder to be paid by Tenant during the remainder of the Term, diminished by any net sums
thereafter received by Landlord through reletting the Premises during such period, after
deducting all costs incurred by Landlord in reletting the Premises. If Landlord elects to proceed
under this Section 18(a)(ii), Landlord may remove all of Tenant’s property from the Premises and
store the same in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for the account of, Tenant,
without becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby. Landlord shall
mitigate Tenant’s liability under this Section 18(a)(ii) by using Landlord’s commercially
reasonable best efforts to promptly relet the Premises on such terms as Landlord in commercially
reasonable discretion may determine (including a term different from the Term, rental
concessions, and alterations to, and improvement of, the Premises). Notwithstanding the foregoing
however, Landlord shall not be obligated to: (I) relet the Premises before leasing other portions
of the Building; or (II) accept any prospective tenant proposed by Tenant unless such proposed
tenant meets all of Landlord’s commercially reasonable leasing criteria. Tenant shall not be
entitled to the excess of any consideration obtained by reletting over the Rent due hereunder.
Unless Landlord delivers written notice to Tenant expressly stating that it has elected to
terminate this Lease, all actions taken by Landlord to dispossess or exclude Tenant from the
Premises shall be deemed to be taken under this Section 18(a)(ii). If Landlord elects to proceed
under this Section 18(a)(ii), Landlord may at any time elect to terminate this Lease under
Section 18(a)(i).



               (iii) Perform Acts on Behalf of Tenant. Perform any act Tenant is obligated to
perform under the terms of this Lease and enter upon the Premises in connection therewith if
necessary, without being liable for any claim for damages therefor. Except in the case of an
emergency (as determined in the Landlord’s sole judgment), Landlord shall telephone or telefax
Tenant prior to entering the Premises. In all events, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord on demand
for any expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with Tenant’s obligations
under this Lease plus interest at the Default Rate.








21









 











          (b) Tenant’s Remedies. Upon any Landlord Event of Default or other breach by Landlord of its
obligations, covenants, agreements, representations or warranties hereunder, Tenant may, in
addition to all other rights and remedies afforded Landlord hereunder or by law or equity: (i)
enforce its indemnification rights under Section 11 hereof; and (ii) if Landlord fails to cure any
such Landlord Event of Default within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of written notice
thereof, or such longer period of time as may be necessary provided Landlord is diligently
attempting to cure, Tenant may terminate this Lease immediately upon Tenant’s payment to Landlord
all accrued Rent and other sums hereunder required to be paid through the date of termination.




     19. Payment by Parties; Non-Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.



          (a) Payment by Tenant. Upon any Tenant Event of Default, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
all costs incurred by Landlord (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses)
in: (i) obtaining possession of the Premises; (ii) removing and storing Tenant’s or any other
occupant’s property; (iii) repairing, restoring, altering, remodeling, or otherwise putting the
Premises into condition acceptable to a new tenant; (iv) performing Tenant’s obligations that
Tenant failed to perform; (v) enforcing, or advising Landlord of, its rights, remedies, and
recourses arising out of the default; and (vi) other amounts due and owing under Section 11.




          (b) Payment by Landlord. Upon any Landlord Event of Default, Landlord shall pay to Tenant all
costs incurred by Tenant (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in:
(i) performing Landlord’s obligations that Landlord failed to perform; (ii) enforcing its rights,
remedies, and recourses arising out of the default; and (iii) other amounts due and owing under
Section 11.




          (c) No Waiver. Landlord’s acceptance of Rent following an Event of Default shall not waive
Landlord’s rights regarding such Event of Default. No waiver by a Party of any violation or
breach of any of the terms contained herein shall waive such non-breaching Party’s rights regarding
any future violation of such term. Landlord’s acceptance of any partial payment of Rent shall not
waive Landlord’s rights with regard to the remaining portion of the Rent that is due, regardless of
any endorsement or other statement on any instrument delivered in payment of Rent or any writing
delivered in connection therewith; accordingly, Landlord’s acceptance of a partial payment of Rent
shall not constitute an accord and satisfaction of the full amount of the Rent that is due.




          (d) Cumulative Remedies. Any and all remedies set forth in this Lease: (i) shall be in
addition to any and all other remedies Landlord may have at law or in equity, (ii) shall be
cumulative, and (iii) may be pursued successively or concurrently as Landlord may elect. The
exercise of any remedy by a Party shall not be deemed an election of remedies or preclude such
Party from exercising any other remedies in the future.




     20. Surrender of Premises.



          (a) Surrender. No act by Landlord shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the
Premises, and no agreement to accept a surrender of the Premises shall be valid unless it is in
writing and signed by Landlord.




          (b) Delivery of Premises to Landlord. At the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant:
(i) shall deliver to Landlord the Premises with all improvements located therein in good repair and
condition, free of Hazardous Materials placed on the Premises during the Term, broom-clean,
reasonable wear and tear (and condemnation and Casualty damage not caused by Tenant, as to which
Sections 14 and 15 shall control) excepted; (ii) deliver to Landlord all keys to the Premises;
(iii) may remove all unattached trade fixtures, furniture, and personal property placed in the
Premises or elsewhere in the Building by Tenant if Tenant has performed all of Tenant’s obligations
hereunder; (iv) may not remove any such trade fixtures, furniture, or personal property in the
Premises that was paid for, in whole or in part, by Landlord or any wiring or cabling unless
Landlord requires such removal; (iv) shall, at Landlord’s option, remove such alterations,
additions, improvements, trade fixtures, personal property, equipment, wiring, conduits, cabling,
and furniture, including Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment, as Landlord may reasonably request;
provided, however, that Tenant shall not be required to remove any such addition or
improvement to the Premises or the Project if Landlord has specifically agreed in writing that the
improvement or addition in question need not be removed; (v) shall repair all damage caused by such
removal; (vi) at Landlord’s reasonable option, shall be deemed to have abandoned all items not so
removed, which items may be appropriated, sold, stored, destroyed or otherwise disposed of by
Landlord without notice to Tenant and without any obligation to account for such items; any such
disposition shall not be considered a strict foreclosure or other exercise of Landlord’s rights.
The provisions of this Section 20 shall survive the end of the Term.








22









 








     21. Holding
Over. If Tenant fails to vacate the Premises at the end of the Term,
Tenant shall be a tenant at sufferance and, in addition to all other Losses and remedies to which
Landlord may be entitled for such holding over; (a) Tenant shall pay, in addition to the other
Rent, Basic Rent equal to 125% of the Rent payable during the last month of the Term, for each day
of holdover, and (b) Tenant shall otherwise continue to be subject to all of Tenant’s obligations
under this Lease. The provisions of this Section 21 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a
waiver of any of Landlord’s other rights or remedies provided herein or at law. If Tenant fails
to surrender the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, in addition to any
other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold
Landlord harmless from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and liability
resulting from such failure, including any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such
failure to surrender, and any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom.



     22. Certain
Rights Reserved
 by Landlord. Provided that the
exercise of such rights does not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises,
Landlord shall have the following rights:



          (a) Building Operations. Landlord may: (i) decorate and make inspections, repairs,
alterations, additions, changes, or improvements, whether structural or otherwise, in and about the
Project, or any part thereof; (ii) enter upon the Premises after giving Tenant reasonable written
notice thereof, except in cases of real or apparent emergency, in which case no notice shall be
required; (iii) during the continuance of any such work, temporarily close doors, entryways, public
space, and corridors in the Building and/or interrupt or temporarily suspend Building services and
facilities; (iv) change the arrangement and location of entrances or passageways, doors, and
doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, restrooms or other public parts of the Building;




          (b) Security. To take such reasonable measures as Landlord deems advisable for the security
of the Building and its occupants including: (i) evacuating the Building for cause, suspected cause
or for drill purposes; (ii) temporarily denying access to the Building; and (iii) closing the
Building after normal business hours and on Sundays and Holidays, subject, however, to
Tenant’s right to enter when the Building is closed after normal business hours under such
reasonable regulations as Landlord may prescribe from time to time;




          (c) Prospective Purchasers and Lenders. To enter the Premises at all reasonable hours to
show the Premises to prospective purchasers or lenders; and




          (d) Prospective Tenants. At any time during the last twelve (12) months of the Term (or
earlier if Tenant has notified Landlord in writing that it does not desire to renew the Term) or at
any time following the occurrence of an Event of Default, to enter the Premises at all reasonable
hours to show the Premises to prospective tenants.




     23. Miscellaneous.



          (a) Landlord Transfer. Landlord may transfer any portion of the Project and any of its
rights under this Lease. If Landlord assigns its rights under this Lease, then Landlord shall
thereby be released from any further obligations hereunder arising after the date of transfer,
provided that the assignee assumes in writing Landlord’s obligations hereunder arising from and
after the transfer date.




          (b) Force Majeure. Whenever a period of time is herein prescribed for action to be taken by
either Party hereto, such Party shall not be liable or responsible for, and there shall be excluded
from the computation of any such period of time, any delays due to strikes, riots, acts of God,
shortages of labor or materials, war, terrorist acts or activities, governmental laws, regulations,
or restrictions, or any other causes of any kind whatsoever which are beyond the control of such
Party.




          (c) Brokerage. Except as previously disclosed in writing by Tenant to Landlord, Tenant is
not represented by any broker or agent in connection with the negotiation or execution of this
Lease. Any broker so disclosed to Landlord by Tenant shall be compensated, if at all, as provided
in a written agreement between Landlord and such broker. Tenant and Landlord shall each indemnify
the other against all costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, liens and other liability for commissions
or other compensation claimed by any other broker or agent claiming the same by, through, or under
the Indemnifying Party.




          (d) Estoppel Certificates. From time to time, Tenant shall furnish to any Person designated by
Landlord, within ten (10) days after Landlord has made a request therefor, a certificate signed by
Tenant confirming and





23









 







containing such factual certifications and representations as to this Lease as Landlord may
reasonably request. Unless otherwise required by Landlord’s Mortgagee or a prospective purchaser
or mortgagee of the Project, the initial form of estoppel certificate to be signed by Tenant is
attached hereto as Exhibit F. If Tenant does not deliver to Landlord the certificate signed by
Tenant within such required time period, Landlord, Landlord’s Mortgagee and any prospective
purchaser or mortgagee, may conclusively presume and rely upon the following facts: (i) this Lease
is in full force and effect; (ii) the terms and provisions of this Lease have not been changed
except as otherwise represented by Landlord; (iii) not more than one monthly installment of Basic
Rent and other charges have been paid in advance; (iv) there are no claims against Landlord nor
any defenses or rights of offset against collection of Rent or other charges; and (v) Landlord is
not in default under this Lease. In such event, Tenant shall be estopped from denying the truth of
the presumed facts.




          (e) Notices. All notices and other communications given pursuant to this Lease shall be in
writing and shall be: (i) hand-delivered to the intended addressee at the address specified in the
Basic Lease Information; (ii) sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service to the
address specified in the Basic Lease Information; or (iii) sent by facsimile transmission during
normal business hours followed by a confirmatory letter sent in another manner permitted hereunder.
All notices shall be effective upon delivery to the address of the addressee. The Parties
hereto may change their addresses by giving notice thereof to the other in conformity with this
provision.




          (f) Separability. If any clause or provision of this Lease is illegal, invalid, or
unenforceable under present or future laws, then the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected
thereby and in lieu of such clause or provision, there shall be added as a part of this Lease a
clause or provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable clause or
provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable.




          (g) Amendments; Binding Effect; No Electronic Records. This Lease may not be amended except by
instrument in writing signed by Landlord and Tenant. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to
have been waived by a Party unless such waiver is in writing signed by such waiving Party, and no
custom or practice which may evolve between the Parties in the administration of the terms hereof
shall waive or diminish the right of either Party to insist upon the performance by the other Party
in strict accordance with the terms hereof. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree not to conduct the
transactions or communications contemplated by this Lease by electronic means, except by facsimile
transmission as specifically set forth in Section 23(e) and email under Section 6(b); nor shall the
use of the phrase “in writing” or the word “written” be construed to include electronic
communications except by facsimile transmissions as specifically set forth in Section 23(e) and
email under Section 6(b). The terms and conditions contained in this Lease shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the Parties, and upon their respective successors in interest and
legal representatives, except as otherwise herein expressly provided. This Lease is for the sole
benefit of Landlord and Tenant, and, other than Landlord’s Mortgagee, no third party shall be
deemed a third party beneficiary hereof.




          (h) Quiet Enjoyment. Provided Tenant has performed all of its obligations hereunder, Tenant
shall peaceably and quietly hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term, without hindrance from
Landlord or any Person claiming by, through, or under Landlord, but not otherwise, subject to the
terms and conditions of this Lease.




          (i) No Merger. There shall be no merger of the leasehold estate hereby created with the fee
estate in the Premises or any part thereof if the same Person acquires or holds, directly or
indirectly, this Lease or any interest in this Lease and the fee estate in the leasehold Premises
or any interest in such fee estate.




          (j) No Offer. The submission of this Lease to Tenant shall not be construed as an offer, and
Tenant shall not have any rights under this Lease unless Landlord executes a copy of this Lease
and delivers it to Tenant.




          (k) Entire Agreement. This Lease constitutes the entire agreement between Landlord and Tenant
regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes all oral statements and prior writings relating
thereto. Except for those set forth in this Lease, no representations’, warranties, or agreements
have been made by Landlord or Tenant to the other with respect to this Lease or the obligations of
Landlord or Tenant in connection therewith. The normal rule of construction that any ambiguities
be resolved against the drafting Party shall not apply to the interpretation of this Lease or any
exhibits or amendments hereto.




          (l) Waiver of Jury Trial. To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law,
Landlord and Tenant each waive any right to trial by jury in any Litigation or to have a jury
participate in









24









 






resolving any Dispute arising out of or with respect to this Lease or any other instrument,
document or agreement executed or delivered in connection herewith or the transactions related
hereto.




          (m) Governing Law; Venue. This Lease shall be deemed to have been executed and delivered
in the State of Florida and will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal law
of the State of Florida, excluding any conflicts or choice of law, rule or principle that might
otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Lease to the substantive law of another
jurisdiction. Each Party shall bring any Action that relates to any Claim arising out of or related
to this Lease exclusively in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida or
a Florida state court of competent jurisdiction and solely in connection with Claims arising under
this Lease or the transactions contained in or contemplated by this Lease: (i) irrevocably submits
to the exclusive jurisdiction of such chosen courts; (ii) waives any objection to laying venue in
any such action or proceeding in such chosen courts; (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by
Applicable Law, waives any objection that such chosen courts are an inconvenient forum or do not
have jurisdiction over any Party; and (iv) agrees that service of process upon such Party in any
such action or proceeding will be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 23(e).




          (n) Recording. Tenant shall not record this Lease or any memorandum of this Lease without the
prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld or denied in the sole and
absolute discretion of Landlord, and any recordation by Tenant shall be a material breach of this
Lease. Tenant grants to Landlord a power of attorney to execute and record a release releasing any
such recorded instrument of record that was recorded without the prior written consent of
Landlord.




          (o) Joint and Several Liability. If Tenant is comprised of more than one Person, each such
Person shall be jointly and severally liable for Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. All
unperformed obligations of a Party hereunder not fully performed at the end of the Term shall
survive the end of the Term, including Tenant’s payment obligations with respect to Rent and all
obligations concerning the condition and repair of the Premises.




          (p) Financial Reports. Within fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s request, Tenant will furnish
Tenant’s most recent thrift financial report, or equivalent call report or financial report,
submitted by Tenant to the applicable regulatory authority If Tenant is a publicly traded
corporation, Tenant may satisfy its obligations hereunder by providing to Landlord Tenant’s most
recent annual and quarterly reports. Tenant will discuss its financial reports with Landlord and,
following the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, will give Landlord access to Tenant’s
books and records in order to enable Landlord to verify the financial statements. Landlord shall
treat all such financial information as Confidential Information in accordance with the provisions
of Section 23(s). Landlord will not disclose any aspect of Tenant’s financial reports that Tenant
designates to Landlord as confidential except as permitted by Section 23(s) and to: (i) Landlord’s
Mortgagee or prospective mortgagees or purchasers of the Building; (ii) in Litigation between
Landlord and Tenant; and/or (iii) if required by court order. Tenant shall not be required to
deliver the financial reports required under this Section 23(p) more than once in any twelve
(12)-month period unless requested by Landlord’s Mortgagee or a prospective buyer or lender of the
Building or an Event of Default occurs.




          (q) Landlord’s Fees. Whenever Tenant requests Landlord to take any action not required of it
hereunder or give any consent required or permitted under this Lease, Tenant will reimburse
Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable, out-of-pocket costs payable to third Persons and incurred by
Landlord in reviewing the proposed action or consent, including reasonable attorneys’, engineers’
or architects’ fees, within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of a statement of
such costs. Tenant will be obligated to make such reimbursement without regard to whether Landlord
consents to any such proposed action.




          (r) Telecommunications. Tenant and its telecommunications companies, including local exchange
telecommunications companies and alternative access vendor services companies, shall have no right
of access to and within the Building, for the installation and operation of Telecommunications
Services, for part or all of Tenant’s telecommunications within the Building and from the Building
to any other location without Landlord’s prior written consent. All providers of
Telecommunications Services shall be required to comply with the rules and regulations of the
Building, Applicable Laws and Landlord’s policies and practices for the Building. Tenant
acknowledges that Landlord shall not be required to provide or arrange for any Telecommunications
Services and that Landlord shall have no liability to any Tenant Party in connection with the
installation, operation or maintenance of Telecommunications Services or any equipment or
facilities relating thereto. Tenant, at its cost and for its own account, shall be solely
responsible for obtaining all Telecommunications Services.









25









 











          (s) Confidentiality.




               (i) In General. Neither Party shall make use of, disseminate or in any way disclose
any Confidential Information of the other Party or its Affiliates, except: (A) as necessary to
perform its obligations hereunder; (B) as may be required by Applicable Law; or (C) with the
express written authorization of the Disclosing Party. Each Party shall keep Confidential
Information confidential and ensure that its Affiliates, employees, agents, and Representatives
who have access to such Confidential Information comply with this non-disclosure obligation. If a
Party contracts with any agents or independent contractors to perform certain of its obligations
hereunder, such Party shall enter into a confidentiality agreement with such Person under which
such Person and its employees, agents and Representatives are restricted from disclosing, using or
duplicating such Confidential Information, except in a manner consistent with this Section 23(s).
The Parties shall maintain appropriate physical, electronic, technical, and procedural safeguards

PARKING



     Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby accepts from Landlord the following parking
spaces: 141 reserved or unreserved parking spaces in the Parking Garage contiguous to the Building
and (ii) 50 unreserved parking spaces in the off-site parking lot located at the corner of Rosselle
and Oak Streets (collectively, the “Parking Facilities”). Pricing for each such parking space shall
be as follows: $130.00 per reserved parking space, $80.00 per unreserved parking space, and $50.00
per off-site parking space. Pricing is subject to increase each Lease year. Tenant shall advise
Landlord on or before October 1, 2006 how many of its parking spaces it wants to be reserved
spaces. Tenant may change such designation of its parking spaces from time to time.



     Tenant shall at all times comply with all Laws respecting the use of the Parking Facilities.
Landlord reserves the right to adopt, modify, and enforce reasonable rules and regulations
governing the operation and use of the Parking Facilities from time to time. Tenant shall have
access to the Parking Facilities at all times except as may be required for maintenance and repair.
Landlord may refuse to permit any person who violates such rules and regulations to park in the
Parking Facilities, and any violation of the rules and regulations shall subject the car to removal
from the Parking Facilities.



     Tenant may validate visitor parking by such method or methods as Landlord may approve, at the
validation rate from time to time generally applicable to visitor parking. Except for reserved
parking, the parking spaces provided hereunder shall be provided on an unreserved, “first-come,
first served” basis. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has arranged or may arrange for the Parking
Facilities to be operated by an independent contractor, not affiliated with Landlord.



     There will be a replacement charge payable by Tenant equal to the amount posted from time to time
by Landlord for loss of any magnetic parking card or parking sticker issued by Landlord.



     If, for any reason, Landlord is unable to provide all or any portion of the parking spaces to which
Tenant is entitled hereunder, then Tenant’s obligation to pay for such parking spaces shall be
abated for so long as Tenant does not have the use thereof; this abatement shall be in settlement
of all claims that Tenant might otherwise have against Landlord because of Landlord’s failure or
inability to provide Tenant with such parking spaces. Landlord shall not be responsible for
enforcing Tenant’s parking rights against any third parties.



     Landlord assumes no responsibility whatsoever for loss or damage to any vehicle or its contents,
however caused. Vehicles should be locked and valuables should not be left in the vehicle.



     No refunds, credits or allowances will be granted to Tenant for absence, vacation or other non-use
of the Parking Facilities by Tenant or its employees.



     Tenant shall defend, indemnify and hold landlord harmless from and against any and all actions,
claims, liabilities, losses, expenses or damages incurred by Landlord attributable to the
carelessness, negligence or fault of Tenant or any of its agent, employees, or invitees from any
cause, including property damage, injury or death to any person or persons.

EXHIBIT H




RENEWAL OPTION



     Provided no Event of Default exists and Tenant is occupying the entire Premises at the time of such
election, Tenant may renew this Lease for up to three (3) additional periods of five (5) years, by
delivering written notice of the exercise thereof to Landlord on or before 180 days before the
expiration of the Term, as the same may be extended hereby. The Basic Rent payable for each month
during such extended Term shall be the prevailing rental rate (the
“Prevailing Rental
Rate”), at the commencement of such extended Term, for renewals of space in buildings of
equivalent quality, size, utility and location, with the length of the extended Term and the credit
standing of Tenant to be taken into account. Within 30 days after receipt of Tenant’s notice to
renew, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant written notice of the Prevailing Rental Rate and shall
advise Tenant of the required adjustment to Basic Rent, if any, and the other terms and conditions
offered. Tenant shall, within ten days after receipt of Landlord’s notice, notify Landlord in
writing whether Tenant accepts or rejects Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate.
If Tenant timely notifies Landlord that Tenant accepts Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing
Rental Rate, then, on or before the commencement date of the extended Term, Landlord and Tenant
shall execute an amendment to this Lease extending the Term on the same terms provided in this
Lease, except as follows:



          (a) Basic Rent shall be adjusted to the Prevailing Rental Rate;




          (b) Landlord shall lease to Tenant the Premises in their then-current condition, and Landlord shall
not provide to Tenant any allowances (e.g., moving allowance, construction allowance, and the like)
or other tenant inducements; and




          (c) Tenant shall pay for the parking spaces which it is entitled to use at the rates from time to
time charged to patrons of the Parking Facilities and/or any other Parking Facilities associated
with the Building during the extended Term (plus all applicable taxes).



In the event Tenant rejects Landlord’s quoted Prevailing Rental Rate, Landlord and Tenant shall
each select an MAI appraiser with substantial experience in the downtown Jacksonville, Florida,
office market for the purpose of making a determination of the prevailing market rental rate in
downtown Jacksonville, Florida for comparable office space which has been built out for occupancy;
if Landlord or Tenant fails to notify the other of the identity of its selected appraiser within
thirty (30) days of the other’s written demand therefor (which demand shall identify the notifying
party’s appraiser and make reference to this provision’s consequences for failure to identify the
appraiser), the party who failed to identify its appraiser shall be deemed to have consented to the
Prevailing Rental Rate determined in good faith by the appraiser selected by the other party.
Assuming that both appraisers are timely selected, the two selected appraisers shall each then make
an independent determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate and they shall together select a third
MAI appraiser, similarly experienced, who shall select which of the two (2) determinations it
believes to be most accurate. The chosen determination shall be final and not subject to appeal.
Each party to the Lease shall pay the fees and costs of its own appraiser and one-half of the fees
and costs of the jointly-selected appraiser.




     Tenant’s rights under this Exhibit shall terminate if (1) this Lease or Tenant’s right to
possession of the Premises is terminated, (2) Tenant fails to timely exercise its option under this
Exhibit, time being of the essence with respect to Tenant’s exercise thereof, or (3) Landlord
determines, in its sole but reasonable discretion, that Tenant’s financial condition or
creditworthiness has materially deteriorated since the date of this Lease.

RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL



     During the Term of this Lease, if Tenant is not in default under this Lease, and space on the 6th
floor becomes available, Landlord shall first give Tenant written notice of the square footage and
availability date. The rent per square foot of rentable area for such space shall be at the same
per square foot rate that Tenant is then paying for the original Premises for monthly Basic Rent,
subject to the same increases plus Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs. The Term of the Lease shall
remain unchanged. Tenant shall have five (5) business days after receipt of any such notice to
elect to lease all such space on the terms of this Lease with the Rent as set forth above. If
Tenant rejects any such offer, or fails to respond to any such offer within said period, Landlord
shall be free to lease the offered space to a third party. If Tenant accepts any such offer,
Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to the Lease adding the additional space to the
Premises, increasing the Rent based upon the then applicable rental rate per square foot under the
Lease, and adding three (3) parking spaces per rentable square foot of the additional space. The
space shall be delivered “as is”.
Tenant shall be responsible for any tenant improvements which it
may desire to the additional space, at its expense. All such improvements shall be subject to the
prior review and approval of Landlord. In the event Tenant leases such space, Tenant’s obligation
to pay Rent on such space shall commence upon the date which is the earlier to occur of ninety (90)
days after the date Landlord delivers such space to Tenant or the date Tenant first opens for
business in such space.

SIGNAGE
