charges, no such charge shall be due unless TENANT elects to use the services offered by LANDLORD as listed in the TENANT MANUAL. Failure by TENANT to pay for any services used by TENANT shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder, and shall
entitle LANDLORD to exercise all rights and remedies provided to it hereunder.

failure to perform any of the covenants on its part under this paragraph 6, nor shall temporary stoppages, temporary failures or interruptions of any of the services to be supplied by LANDLORD unto TENANT under this paragraph be construed as an
eviction of TENANT, work an abatement of rent, or relieve TENANT from any covenant or agreement, but LANDLORD agrees diligently to restore any services obliged to be provided by it hereunder when temporary failures, stoppages, or interruptions
occur.

 ASSIGNMENT 
  
 10. TENANT shall not, without the express prior written consent of LANDLORD, assign, mortgage, or otherwise encumber or transfer this Lease, or sublease, or permit any
other person to use or occupy, all or any part of the Premises. The parties expressly agree that: (a) LANDLORD’S consent may be withheld for any reason whatsoever and regardless of whether such withholding is contrary to any prevailing
commercial standards; and (b) LANDLORD’S decision regarding such consent shall be binding on the parties, regardless of the reason or basis of the decision. If the TENANT desires to assign or encumber this Lease or sublet the Premises or any
part thereof, the TENANT will give the LANDLORD written notice of such desire specifying the name of the proposed assignee, mortgagee, or sublessee and all of the terms of the proposed assignment, mortgage, or sublease at least sixty (60) days prior
to the date such assignment, encumbrance, or sublease is proposed to be effective. The LANDLORD will have the option for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice to: (a) terminate this Lease as of the date specified by the TENANT as
to the portion of the Premises affected; or (b) permit the TENANT to assign, encumber, or sublet such portion of the Premises; or (c) refuse to consent to the proposed assignment, encumbrance, or subletting and continue this Lease in effect as to
the entire Premises. The failure by the LANDLORD to exercise any of the foregoing options within the time provided will be deemed an exercise of option (c) above. Notwithstanding any consent granted by the LANDLORD, the TENANT, and each assignee,
mortgagee, and sublessee will at all times remain fully liable for the payment of Rent and for the performance of the TENANT’S obligations hereunder. No consent granted by the LANDLORD will constitute a waiver of the provisions of this Lease
except as to the specific instance covered thereby. In the event LANDLORD consents to such assignment, sublease, or other transfer of all or any portion of this Lease, TENANT shall remit to LANDLORD that portion of any payment TENANT receives from
its sub-lessee, assignees, etc., which exceeds the rent due and payable as is set forth in Paragraph 3 herein or any amendments hereto. 
  
 COMPLIANCE 
  
 11. TENANT agrees to maintain the Premises in a clean, orderly, healthful condition and to comply with all laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations of all governmental agencies having jurisdiction over the Premises.
TENANT will not use, occupy, or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises for any unlawful, disreputable, or hazardous purpose, maintain or permit the maintenance of any public or private nuisance, or do or permit any act or thing that may disturb
the quiet enjoyment of any other tenant of the Building, or permit anything to be done that would increase the fire insurance rate on Building or its contents.  
  
 RIGHT OF ENTRY 
  

	12.	(A) TENANT agrees that LANDLORD’S representatives shall have the right to enter all parts of the Premises at all reasonable hours to inspect, test, clean, make repairs,
alterations, and additions to the Building or the Premises that it may deem necessary or desirable or to provide any service which it is obligated to furnish tenants of the Building; provided, however, that this paragraph shall be inoperative in the
event that any federal or state law or regulation prohibits public access to the Premises without security clearance from such federal or state agencies. 

  
 (B) TENANT agrees to complete on an annual basis the attached questionnaire specified as ”Exhibit C”,
regarding the use of chemicals, radioactive material, biological agents, and other substances that may pose a hazard to the occupants of the facility. TENANT shall within seven (7) working days after the mailing of the questionnaire by the LANDLORD
return to the LANDLORD the completed questionnaire, and in the event the TENANT does not complete the questionnaire, the LANDLORD shall have the rights to terminate this Lease Agreement immediately. Depending on the responses of the TENANT, a more
detailed questionnaire may need to be completed, as well as, a review by committee may be necessary before LANDLORD can accept the TENANT. The UAB Office of Occupational Health and Safety may also conduct onsite audits from time to time to assure
itself that all operations are being conducted in a safe manner. 
  
 SURRENDER
OF PREMISES 
  
 13. At the expiration of the tenancy hereby created, TENANT
shall surrender the Premises in the same condition as the Premises were in upon delivery of possession thereto under this Lease, reasonable wear and tear excepted and damage by unavoidable casualty excepted, and shall surrender all keys for the
Premises to LANDLORD at the place then fixed for the payment of rent and shall inform LANDLORD of all combinations on locks, safes, and vaults, if any, in the Premises. TENANT shall remove all its trade fixtures and any alterations or improvements
which LANDLORD requests to be removed before surrendering the Premises as aforesaid and shall repair any damage to the Premises caused thereby. TENANT’S obligation to observe or perform this covenant shall survive the expiration or other
termination of the term of this Lease.

 14. By taking possession of the Premises, the TENANT will be deemed to have accepted the Premises as suitable for the purposes for which the same are leased, to have
accepted the Building, and, except for any matters specified in writing to the LANDLORD, TENANT agrees to indemnify and hold LANDLORD harmless from and against any and all liability, claims, demands, loss, or damage for injury to, or death of, any
person or persons or damage to property in any way arising from or in connection with the occupancy or use by tenant of the Premises or any part thereof or occasioned wholly or in part by any act of omission of TENANT, its agents, employees, or
invitees. TENANT further agrees to indemnify and hold LANDLORD harmless from all fines, suits, claims, demands, and actions resulting from any breach, violation, or nonperformance of any covenant or condition hereof by TENANT or TENANT’S
agents, employees, or invitees.

 (B) Partial Taking of Premises

 PERFORMANCE 
  
 17. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, LANDLORD shall not be deemed in default with respect to the performance of any of the terms, covenants, and
conditions of this Lease to be performed by it. If any failure of its performance shall be due to any strike, lockout, civil commotion, war, war-like operation, invasion, rebellion, hostilities, military or usurped power, sabotage, governmental
regulations or controls, inability to obtain any material or service, act of God, or any other cause whatever (including failure of TENANT to supply necessary data or instructions) beyond the reasonable control of LANDLORD, or inability of LANDLORD
to obtain financing satisfactory to LANDLORD, the time for performance by LANDLORD shall be extended by the period of delay resulting from or due to any of said causes. 
  
 OCCUPANCY OF PREMISES 
  

	18.	(A) Premises Rendered Wholly Unfit for Occupancy 

  
 In the event the Premises shall be destroyed or so damaged by fire, explosion, earthquake, or any other cause so as to become wholly unfit for occupancy,
then the LANDLORD may, if it so elects, rebuild and put the Premises in good condition and fit for occupancy within a reasonable time after such Premises have become wholly unfit for occupancy, or it may give notice in writing to TENANT terminating
this Lease. If LANDLORD elects to repair or rebuild the Premises, it shall give the TENANT notice thereof within thirty (30) days after such injury or damage of its intention to repair or rebuild, and then LANDLORD shall proceed with reasonable
speed to repair or rebuild the Premises. TENANT shall not be obligated to pay any rent from the time that such Premises were rendered wholly unfit for occupancy until such Premises are again fit and ready for occupancy. 
  
 (B) Premises Rendered Partially Unfit for Occupancy 
  
 In the event the Premises shall be destroyed or so damaged by fire,
explosion, earthquake, or any other cause so as to become partially unfit for occupancy, LANDLORD shall forthwith cause the same to be repaired as soon as is reasonably possible and, only while such damage is being repaired, TENANT shall be entitled
to a proportionate abatement of the monthly rent. 
  
 (C)
Building Rendered Totally or Partially Unfit for Occupancy 
  
 In the event that the Building in which the Premises are situated is destroyed or damaged from any cause to the extent (in LANDLORD’S sole judgment) of one-third or more of the replacement cost of such Building, LANDLORD shall have an
option to terminate this Lease, whether the Premises be damaged or not; such option to be exercised within thirty (30) days after such occurrence so damaging the Building. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, a total or
substantially total destruction of the Building shall terminate this Lease. 
  
 (D) General 
  
 LANDLORD
shall not be liable or responsible to TENANT for any inconvenience or loss due to making repairs or reconstruction as aforesaid nor for any delays in repairing or rebuilding due to strikes, acts of God, governmental regulations, or any other causes
beyond its control. Nothing herein shall be deemed to waive or relieve TENANT from any liability for any loss or damage to LANDLORD, or LANDLORD’S property due to negligence or willful acts of TENANT, its agents, servants, employees, or
invitees; provided, however, if LANDLORD’S fire and extended coverage insurance policy permits, without penalty, the release of others from liability for loss from insured casualties, such release from liability is hereby granted to the extent
that LANDLORD actually recovers for loss under such policy. 
  
 HOLDING OVER

  
 19. If the TENANT continues to occupy the Leased Premises after the
expiration or other termination of the Lease Term, such holding over will, unless otherwise agreed by the LANDLORD in writing, constitute a tenancy at will at a daily rental equal to one-thirtieth (1/30th) of an amount of equal to twice the amount
of the rent payable during the last month prior to the termination of this Lease subject to all of the other provisions set forth herein. 
  

 6 








 DEFAULT PROVISIONS 
  

	20.	(A) The happenings of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default hereunder: (i) TENANT’S failure to pay any one or more said installments of rent
hereunder as and when the same becomes due; (ii) at LANDLORD’S option, TENANT’S failure to pay the rent due hereunder within ten (10) days of the due date therefore for two consecutive months; (iii) TENANT’S filing of a petition in
bankruptcy or a petition under the Bankruptcy Act, or any amendment thereto by or against TENANT, or TENANT being adjudged a bankrupt; (iv) TENANT’S making an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (v) the appointment of a receiver of

re-enter and take possession of the Premises; or (ii) re-enter and re-let the Premises from time to time as agents of TENANT, and such re-entry and/or re-letting shall not discharge TENANT from any liability or obligations hereunder, except that net
rents (that is, gross rents less the expense of collecting and handling, and less commissions) collected as a result of such re-letting shall be a credit on TENANT’S liability for rents under the terms of this Lease; (iii) perform or cause to
be performed the obligations of the TENANT under this Lease and enter the Premises to accomplish such purpose without being liable for prosecution therefor...or (iv) terminate this Lease and demand that tenant vacate the premises occupied. In the
event LANDLORD opts to perform the obligations of the TENANT, TENANT hereby agrees to reimburse the LANDLORD on demand for any expense which the LANDLORD might incur in effecting compliance with this Lease on behalf of the TENANT, and the TENANT
further agrees the LANDLORD will not be liable for any damage resulting to the TENANT from such action, whether caused by the negligence of the LANDLORD or otherwise. Nothing herein, however, shall be construed to require LANDLORD to re-enter,
re-let, or perform the TENANT’S obligations. Nor shall anything herein be construed to postpone the right of LANDLORD to sue for rents, whether matured by acceleration or otherwise, but on the contrary, LANDLORD is hereby given the right to
demand, collect, and/or sue therefor at any time after default. 
  
 (C) Upon default, or upon the termination of this Lease or re-entry upon the Premises for any one or more of the causes set forth above, or upon any termination of this Lease or re-entry upon the Premises, the rents hereunder for the
remainder of the entire rental period, and all other indebtedness, if any, payable under the provisions hereof, shall be and become immediately due and payable at the option of LANDLORD and without regard for whether or not possession of the
Premises shall have been surrendered to or taken by LANDLORD; provided, however, no default on account of payment for rent shall occur until such rent is ten (10) days in arrears, and no default for other cause shall occur until the expiration of a
period of thirty (30) days after written notice to TENANT of any breach of any other covenant hereof without correction of such breach. 
  
 (D) In the event of employment of an attorney by LANDLORD for collection of any amount due hereunder or for the institution of any suit for possession of
the Premises, or for advice or services incident to the breach of any other covenant of this Lease by TENANT or on account of bankruptcy proceedings by or against TENANT or on account of bankruptcy proceedings by or against TENANT, or the leasehold
interest of TENANT, TENANT agrees to pay and shall be taxed with a reasonable attorney’s fee which shall be a part of the debt evidenced and secured by this Lease. In order further to secure the prompt payment of said rents when the same
mature, and the faithful performance by TENANT of all and singular the terms, conditions, and covenants on the part of TENANT herein contained and all damages and costs that LANDLORD may sustain by reason of the violation of said terms, conditions,
and covenants, or any of them, TENANT does hereby waive any and all right to claim personal property as exempt from levy and sale under the Constitution and Laws of the State of Alabama or any other State. 
  
 SECURITY DEPOSIT 
  
 21. LANDLORD and TENANT acknowledge that TENANT has previously deposited with the LANDLORD the sum of $8,000 ($4,800 for Suites 131 and 259
and $3,200 for Suite 274) in connection with the Lease Agreement dated May 1, 2004 (“Prior Deposit”). TENANT and LANDLORD agree that LANDLORD may hold the Prior Deposit, without interest, as 

  

 7 








 
security for the payment of rent and any and all other sums of money for which TENANT shall or may become liable to LANDLORD under this Lease, and for the
faithful performance by TENANT of all other covenants and agreements under this Lease. The foregoing deposit shall be returned to TENANT after the termination of this Lease and any renewal hereof, provided TENANT shall have made all such payments
and performed all such covenants and agreements. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to limit the amount of any claim, demand, or cause of action of LANDLORD against TENANT under the provisions of this Lease. 
  
 REMEDIES 
  
 22. TENANT agrees that all remedies herein given LANDLORD, including all those not set forth but provided by law shall be cumulative, and
the exercise of one or more of any such remedies by LANDLORD shall not exclude the exercise of any other lawful remedy nor shall any waiver by LANDLORD, express or implied, of any breach of any term, covenant, or condition hereof be deemed a waiver
of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant, or condition hereof. Acceptance of rental by LANDLORD from TENANT or any assignee, sub-tenant, or other successor in interest to TENANT, with or without notice shall never be
construed as a waiver of any breach of any term, condition, or covenant of this Lease. Failure of LANDLORD to declare any default upon occurrence thereof, or delay in taking action with respect thereto, shall not waive such default, but LANDLORD
shall have the right to declare such default at any time and take such action as may be authorized hereunder, in law or equity, or otherwise. TENANT agrees to pay all costs and expenses that may be incurred in connection with the enforcement of any
of the provisions of this Lease.

the Building and/or Premises. Such sale, assignment, or transfer may be made to a corporation, trust, trust company, individual, or group of individuals, and howsoever made shall be binding on TENANT in all respects and recognized by TENANT. In the
event LANDLORD transfers LANDLORD’S interest in the Building and/or Premises, LANDLORD will thereby be released from any further obligation of any kind whatsoever hereunder and the TENANT agrees to attorn to and look solely to the transferee
for the performance of such obligations. TENANT agrees to execute and deliver to the designee of the LANDLORD from time to time within ten (10) days after written request therefor all instruments that might be required by the LANDLORD to confirm
