Property provided that Tenant is paid or receives an appropriate credit for any reduction or rebate
of Taxes actually received by Landlord that was attributable to Taxes actually paid by Tenant. For
purposes hereof, Taxes for any year shall be Taxes that are due for payment or paid in that year
rather than Taxes that are assessed, become a lien, or accrue during such year which obligation
shall survive the termination or expiration of this Lease. In the event Landlord obtains a refund
of Taxes, Landlord shall refund a portion thereof to Tenant, such portion to be based on the
percentage of the original Taxes paid by Tenant from which the refund was derived. With regard to
any general or special assessments that may be payable in installments, the amount of Taxes for
purposes of this Lease shall be determined as if Landlord had elected to pay such general or
special assessment(s) in installments and the Taxes included in Tenants Proportionate Share of
Operating Expenses shall only include those installments or parts thereof that may become due
during the Term of this Lease. 3.1.3.Operating Year. The term Operating Year shall mean the calendar year

the Operating Years in which the Term begins and ends shall be prorated to correspond to that
portion of said Operating Years occurring within the Term. Tenants Proportionate Share of
Operating Expenses and any other sums due and payable under this Lease shall be adjusted upon
receipt of the actual bills therefor, and the obligations of this Section 3shall survive the
termination or expiration of the Lease. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 3
(Additional Rent) hereof to the contrary, the term Tenants Proportionate Share of Real Estate
Taxes shall mean eighteen percent (18%) of the Real Estate Taxes for applicable Lease Year, and
the Term Tenants Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses shall mean eighteen percent (18%) of
the Operating Expenses for the applicable Lease Year. Said percentages have been agreed upon by
the parties hereto after due consideration of the rentable area of the Building. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, it is agreed that in the event the Building is not
90% occupied during any Lease Year, a reasonable and equitable adjustment shall be made by Landlord
in computing the Operating Expenses that vary with occupancy only for such year so that the
Operating Expenses shall be adjusted to the amount that would have been incurred had the Building
been fully occupied during such year. Tenants initial estimate of Additional Rent for the first
operating year shall be the following amounts: 5




---



##### 



Real
Estate Taxes: $3,252.19/Mo. Operating
Expenses: $2,550.01/Mo. 3.2.Payment of Additional Rent. Landlord shall have the right to reasonably estimate
the Operating Expenses for each Operating Year. Upon Landlords or Agents notice to Tenant of
such estimated amount, Tenant shall pay, on the first day of each month during that Operating Year,
an amount (the Estimated Additional Rent) equal to the estimate of the Tenants Proportionate
Share of Operating Expenses divided by 12 (or the fractional portion of the Operating Year
remaining at the time Landlord delivers its notice of the estimated amounts due from Tenant for
that Operating Year). Landlord shall reconcile estimated and actual Operating Expenses at any time
within six (6) months after the last day of the Operating Year in question and if the aggregate
amount of Estimated Additional Rent actually paid by Tenant during any Operating Year is less than
Tenants actual ultimate liability for Operating Expenses for that particular Operating Year,
Tenant shall pay the deficiency within 30 days of Landlords written demand therefor. If the
aggregate amount of Estimated Additional Rent actually paid by Tenant during a given Operating Year
exceeds Tenants actual liability for such Operating Year, the excess shall be credited against the
Estimated Additional Rent next due from Tenant during the immediately subsequent Operating Year,
except that in the event that such excess is paid by Tenant during the final Lease Year, then upon
the expiration of the Term, Landlord or Agent shall pay Tenant the then-applicable excess promptly
after determination thereof. No interest shall be payable to Tenant on account of payments of
Estimated Additional Rent, and payments may be commingled. 4.USE OF PREMISES AND COMMON AREAS; SECURITY DEPOSIT. 4.1.Use of Premises and Property. The Premises shall be used by the Tenant for the
purpose(s) set forth in Section 1.8above and for no other purpose whatsoever. Tenant shall not,
at any time, use or occupy, or suffer or permit anyone to use or occupy, the Premises, or do or
permit anything to be done in the Premises or the Property, in any manner that may (a) violate any
Certificate of Occupancy for the Premises or the Property; (b) cause, or be liable to cause, injury
to, or in any way impair the value or proper utilization of, all or any portion of the Property
(including, but not limited to, the structural elements of the Property) or any equipment,
facilities or systems therein; (c) constitute a violation of the laws and requirements of any
public authority or the requirements of insurance bodies or the rules and regulations of the
Property, including any covenant, condition or restriction affecting the Property provided,
however, that Tenant shall only be obligated to comply with the rules and regulations of the
Property and any covenant, condition or restriction affecting the Property to the extent that a
copy has been provided to Tenant; (d) exceed the load bearing capacity of the floor of the
Premises; (e) impair or tend to impair the character, reputation or appearance of the Property; or
(e) unreasonably annoy, inconvenience or disrupt the operations or tenancies of other tenants or
users of the Property. On or prior to the date hereof, Tenant has completed and delivered for the
benefit of Landlord a Tenant Operations Inquiry Form in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D
describing the nature of Tenants proposed business operations at the Premises, which form is
intended to, and shall be, relied upon by Landlord. 4.2.Use of Common Areas. As used herein, Common Areas shall mean all areas within
the Property that are available for the common use of tenants of the Property and that are not
leased or held for the exclusive use of Tenant or other tenants or licensees, including, but not
limited to, parking areas, driveways, sidewalks, loading areas, access roads, corridors,
landscaping and planted areas. Tenant shall have the nonexclusive right to use the Common Areas
for the purposes intended, subject to such reasonable rules and regulations as Landlord may
uniformly establish from time to time. Tenant shall not interfere with the rights of any or all of
Landlord, other tenants or licensees, or any other person entitled to use the Common Areas.
Without limitation of the foregoing, Tenant shall not park or store any vehicles or trailers on, or
conduct truck loading and unloading activities in, the Common Areas in a manner that unreasonably
disturbs, disrupts or prevents the use of the Common Areas by Landlord, other tenants or licensees
or other persons entitled to use the Common Areas. Landlord, from time to time, may change any or
all of the size, location, nature and use of any of the Common Areas although such changes may
result in inconvenience to Tenant, so long as such changes do not materially and adversely affect
Tenants use of the Premises or the access to or parking for the Premises; provided, however, that
in connection with maintenance, repair, repaving etc. of the parking lot, Tenants access thereto
and use thereof may be disrupted temporarily. In addition to 6

##### 



the foregoing, Landlord may, at any time, close or suspend access to any Common Areas to
perform any acts in the Common Areas as, in Landlords reasonable judgment, are desirable to
improve or maintain either or both of the Premises and the Property, or are required in order to
satisfy Landlords obligations under either or both of Sections 13.1and 18; provided, however,
that Landlord shall always use reasonable efforts to limit any disruption of Tenants use and
operation of the Premises in connection therewith. 4.3.Signage. Tenant shall not affix any sign of any size or character to any portion
of the Property, without prior written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant shall remove all signs of Tenant upon the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease and immediately repair any damage to either or both of the
Property and the Premises caused by, or resulting from, such removal. 4.4.Security/Damage Deposit. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this
Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord or Agent the sum set forth in Section 1.11above, in cash
(the Security), representing security for the performance by Tenant of the covenants and
obligations hereunder. The Security shall be held by Landlord or Agent, without interest, in favor
of Tenant; provided, however, that no trust relationship shall be deemed created thereby and the
Security may be commingled with other assets of Landlord. If Tenant defaults in the performance of
any of its covenants hereunder, Landlord or Agent may, without notice to Tenant, apply all or any
part of the Security, to the extent required for the payment of any Rent or other sums due from
Tenant hereunder, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord. In the event the
Security is so applied, Tenant shall, upon demand, immediately deposit with Landlord or Agent a sum
equal to the amount so used. If Tenant fully and faithfully complies with all the covenants and
obligations hereunder, the Security (or any balance thereof) shall be returned to Tenant within 30
days after the last to occur of (i) the date the Term expires or terminates or (ii) delivery to
Landlord of possession of the Premises. Landlord shall deliver the Security to any purchaser of
Landlords interest in the Premises [or any Successor Landlord (defined below), if applicable], and
thereupon Landlord and Agent shall be discharged from any further liability with respect to the
Security. 5.CONDITION AND DELIVERY OF PREMISES. 5.1.Condition of Premises. Tenant agrees that Tenant is familiar with the condition
of both the Premises and the Property, and Tenant hereby accepts the foregoing on an AS-IS,
WHERE-IS basis; provided, however, that for a period of sixty (60) days after the Commencement
Date, Tenant may notify Landlord of any latent defects in the Premises and Landlord shall repair
such latent defects at Landlords sole cost and expense. Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord
nor Agent, nor any representative of Landlord, has made any representation as to the condition of
the foregoing or the suitability of the foregoing for Tenants intended use other than as expressly
set forth in this Lease. Tenant represents and warrants that Tenant has also conducted its own
inspection of the Premises and has not discovered any condition believed to be contrary to the
foregoing representations of Landlord. Neither Landlord nor Agent shall be obligated to make any
repairs, replacements or improvements (whether structural or otherwise) of any kind or nature to
the foregoing in connection with, or in consideration of, this Lease, except (a) as set forth in
Sections 13.1and 18and (b) with respect to all (if any) repairs and improvements expressly and
specifically described in Schedule 1to the Exhibit BWork Letter attached hereto (the Landlord
Improvements). Landlord agrees to make reasonable efforts to enforce, or cause Agent to enforce,
upon Tenants request, all manufacturers or contractors warranties, if any, issued in connection
with any of the Landlord Improvements. 5.2.Delay in Commencement. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant if Landlord does
not deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on the Commencement Date in the condition required
by this Lease. The obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall not be affected thereby, except
that the Commencement Date shall be delayed until Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to
Tenant. 6.SUBORDINATION; NOTICES TO SUPERIOR LESSORS AND MORTGAGEES; ATTORNMENT. 6.1.Subordination. Provided that Tenant is provided with a reasonable and customary
subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreement duly executed by the holder 7

##### 



of any mortgage or deed of trust or the landlord pursuant to any ground lease, this Lease
shall be subject and subordinate at all times to (a) all ground leases or underlying leases that
may now exist or hereafter be executed affecting either or both of the Premises and the Property
and (b) any mortgage or deed of trust that may now exist or hereafter be placed upon, and encumber,
any or all of (x) the Property; (y) any ground leases or underlying leases for the benefit of the
Property; and (z) all or any portion of Landlords interest or estate in any of said items.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to subordinate or cause to be
subordinated any such ground leases or underlying leases that benefit the Property or any such
mortgage or deed of trust liens to this Lease. Tenant shall execute and deliver, upon demand by
Landlord and in the form reasonably requested by Landlord, any additional documents evidencing the
priority of subordination of this Lease with respect to any such ground leases or underlying leases
for the benefit of the Property or any such mortgage or deed of trust. 6.2.Estoppel Certificates. Tenant agrees, from time to time and within 10 days after
request by Landlord, to deliver to Landlord, or Landlords designee, an estoppel certificate
stating such matters pertaining to this Lease as may be reasonably requested by Landlord. Failure
by Tenant to timely execute and deliver such certificate shall constitute a default by Tenant of
this Lease. Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this section may
be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or mortgagee of the Property or of any interest therein
or any other Landlord designee. 6.3.Transfer for Landlord. In the event of a sale or conveyance by Landlord of the
Property and an assumption of the Landlords obligations under this Lease, the same shall operate
to release Landlord from any future liability for any of the covenants or conditions, express or
implied, herein contained in favor of Tenant, and in such event Tenant agrees to look solely to
Landlords successor in interest with respect thereto and agrees to attorn to such successor
provided that any such successor expressly assumes Landlords obligations hereunder in writing. 7.QUIET ENJOYMENT. Subject to the provisions of this Lease, so long as Tenant pays
all of the Rent and performs all of its other obligations hereunder, Tenant shall not be disturbed
in its possession of the Premises by Landlord, Agent or any other person lawfully claiming through
or under Landlord; provided, however, in addition to Landlords rights under Section 16and
elsewhere in this Lease, Landlord and Landlords agents, employees, contractors and representatives
shall, upon reasonable prior notice, be provided reasonable access to the Premises such that
Landlord and Landlords agents, employees, contractors and representatives may perform the General
Maintenance Services (as hereinafter defined) without undue interruption, delay or hindrance. This
covenant shall be construed as a covenant running with the Property and is not a personal covenant
of Landlord. Tenant shall not unreasonably interrupt, delay, prevent or hinder the performance of
the General Maintenance Services by or on behalf of Landlord and Landlord shall use commercially
reasonable efforts not to interfere with Tenants use. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however,
Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have the unfettered and unilateral right to use
portions of the Common Areas (inclusive of the roof of the Building) for such purposes and uses as
Landlord may desire; provided, however, that in all events and under all circumstances, Landlords
use of any portion of the Common Areas shall not interfere, in any material respect, with any or
all of (a) Tenants rights to occupy and use the Common Areas (in the manner and for the purposes
contemplated hereunder); (b) Tenants right to utilize the vehicular parking areas located on the
Common Areas; and (c) Tenants right of access, ingress and egress to and from the Common Areas. 8.ASSIGNMENT, SUBLETTING AND MORTGAGING. 8.1. Prohibition. Tenant shall not (a) allow this lease to be assigned, in whole or in part,
by operation of law or otherwise, including, without limitation, by transfer of a controlling
interest (i.e. greater than a 25% interest) of stock, membership interests or partnership
interests, or by merger or dissolution, which transfer of a controlling interest, merger or
dissolution shall be deemed an assignment for purpose of this lease, or assign (whether directly or
indirectly), in whole or in part, this Lease, or (b) mortgage or pledge the Lease, or (c) sublet
the Premises, in whole or in part, without (in the case of any or all of (a) through (b) above) the
prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Tenant may, however, assign this Lease or sublease a portion of the Premises to an entity
controlling, controlled by, or under common control with Tenant, provided that Tenant advises
Landlord, in writing, in advance, and otherwise complies with the succeeding provisions of this 8




---



##### 



Section. In no event shall any assignment or sublease ever release Tenant or any guarantor
from any obligation or liability hereunder; and in the case of any assignment, Landlord shall
retain all rights with respect to the Security.Regardless of whether or not an assignee or
sublessee executes and delivers any documentation to Landlord pursuant to the preceding sentence,
any assignee or sublessee shall be deemed to have automatically attorned to Landlord in the event
of any termination of this Lease. 8.2. Rights of Landlord. If this Lease is assigned, or if the Premises (or any part thereof)
are sublet or used or occupied by anyone other than Tenant, whether or not in violation of this
Lease, Landlord or Agent may (without prejudice to, or waiver of its rights), collect Rent from the
assignee, subtenant or occupant. Landlord or Agent may apply the net amount collected to the Rent
herein reserved, but no such assignment, subletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a
waiver of any of the provisions of this Section 8. With respect to the allocable portion of the
Premises sublet, in the event that the total rent and any other considerations received under any
sublease by Tenant is greater than the total Rent required to be paid, from time to time, under
this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord one hundred percent (100%) of such excess as received from
any subtenant and such amount shall be deemed a component of the Additional Rent; provided,
however, that if any such subtenant is an affiliate that controls, is controlled by or is under
common control with Tenant, Tenant shall not be required to pay such excess to Landlord as
Additional Rent. 9.COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. 9.1.Compliance with Laws. Tenant shall, at its sole expense (regardless of the cost
thereof), comply with all local, state and federal laws, rules, regulations and requirements now or
hereafter in force and all judicial and administrative decisions in connection with the enforcement
thereof (collectively, Laws), pertaining to Tenants use and occupancy thereof. If any license
or permit is required for the conduct of Tenants business in the Premises, Tenant, at its expense,
shall procure such license prior to the Commencement Date, and shall maintain such license or
permit in good standing throughout the Term. Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord of any
written notice it receives of the alleged violation of any Law or requirement of any governmental
or administrative authority with respect to either or both of the Premises and the use or
occupation thereof. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction, or the admission of Tenant
in any action or proceeding against Tenant, whether Landlord is a party thereto or not, that any
such Law pertaining to the Premises has been violated, shall be conclusive of that fact as between
Landlord and Tenant. Landlord shall comply with all Laws applicable to Common Areas or portions of
the Building Landlord is obligated to maintain as well as all other Laws of general application,
and the cost thereof may be included in Operating Expenses to the extent permitted under Section
3.1.1. 9.2.Hazardous Materials. If, at any time or from time to time during the Term (or
any extension thereof), any Hazardous Material (defined below) is generated, transported, stored,
used, treated or disposed of at, to, from, on or in either or both of the Premises and the Property
by, or as a result of any act or omission of, any or all of Tenant and any or all of Tenants
Parties (defined below): (i) Tenant shall, at its own cost, at all times comply (and cause all
others to comply) with all laws (federal, state or local) relating to Hazardous Materials,
including, but not limited to, all Environmental Laws (defined below), and Tenant shall further, at
its own cost, obtain and maintain in full force and effect at all times all permits and other
approvals required in connection therewith; (ii) Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord or Agent
with complete copies of all communications, permits or agreements with, from or issued by any
governmental authority or agency (federal, state or local) or any private entity relating in any
way to the presence, release, threat of release, or placement of Hazardous Materials on or in the
Premises or any portion of the Property, or the generation, transportation, storage, use,
treatment, or disposal at, on, in or from the Premises, of any Hazardous Materials; (iii) Landlord,
Agent and their respective agents and employees shall have the right to either or both (x) enter
the Premises and (y) conduct appropriate tests for the purposes of ascertaining Tenants compliance
with all applicable laws (including Environmental Laws), rules or permits relating in any way to
the generation, transport, storage, use, treatment, disposal or presence of Hazardous Materials on,
at, in or from all or any portion of either or both of the Premises and the Property; and (iv) upon
written request by Landlord or Agent based on a reasonable basis to suspect contamination or a
violation of Environmental Laws, Tenant shall provide Landlord with the results of reasonably
appropriate tests of air, water or soil to demonstrate that Tenant complies with all applicable
laws, rules or permits relating in any way to the generation, 9

##### 



transport, storage, use, treatment, disposal or presence of Hazardous Materials on, at, in or
from all or any portion of either or both of the Premises and the Property. This Section 9.2does
not authorize the generation, transportation, storage, use, treatment or disposal of any Hazardous
Materials at, to, from, on or in the Premises in contravention of this Section 9, except that
Tenant shall have the right to use those Hazardous Materials disclosed on Exhibit D and necessary
in the operation of its business, so long as Tenant complies with Environmental Laws. Tenant
covenants to investigate, clean up and otherwise remediate, at Tenants sole expense, any release
of Hazardous Materials caused, contributed to, or created by any or all of (A) Tenant and (B) any
or all of Tenants officers, directors, members, managers, partners, invitees, agents, employees,
contractors or representatives (Tenant Parties) during the Term. Such investigation and
remediation shall be performed only after Tenant has obtained Landlords prior written consent;
provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to respond immediately to an emergency without
first obtaining such consent. All remediation shall be performed in strict compliance with
Environmental Laws and to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord. Tenant shall be liable for any
and all conditions covered hereby, and for all costs relating thereto, that are caused or created
by any or all of Tenant and any or all of Tenants Parties. Tenant shall not enter into any
settlement agreement, consent decree or other compromise with respect to any claims relating to any
Hazardous Materials in any way connected to the Premises without first obtaining Landlords written
consent (which consent may be given or withheld in Landlords sole, but reasonable, discretion) and
affording Landlord the reasonable opportunity to participate in any such proceedings. As used
herein, the term (x) Environmental Laws shall mean any and all laws pertaining to Hazardous
Materials or that otherwise deal with, or relate to, air or water quality, air emissions, soil or
ground conditions or other environmental matters of any kind; and (y) Hazardous Materials shall
mean any waste, material or substance (whether in the form of liquids, solids or gases, and whether
or not airborne) that is or may be deemed to be or include a pesticide, petroleum, asbestos,
polychlorinated biphenyl, radioactive material, urea formaldehyde or any other pollutant or
contaminant that is or may be deemed to be hazardous, toxic, ignitable, reactive, corrosive,
dangerous, harmful or injurious, or that presents a risk to public health or to the environment,
and that is or becomes regulated by any Environmental Law. The undertakings, covenants and
obligations imposed on Tenant under this Section 9.2shall survive the termination or expiration of
this Lease. Landlord represents that based on an existing Environment Report dated December 21,
1994 prepared by Groundwater Technology Inc., Landlord is not aware of any Hazardous Materials
contamination on the Property, and Landlord shall indemnify Tenant against any Losses actually

incurred by Tenant as a result of any contamination in violation of Environmental Laws existing on
the Property prior to the Commencement Date as a direct result of Landlords negligent, intentional
or willful acts or omissions. 10.INSURANCE. 10.1.Insurance to be Maintained by Landlord. Landlord shall maintain (a) all-risk
property insurance policy covering the Property (at its full replacement cost), but excluding
Tenants Property (defined below), and (b) commercial general public liability insurance covering
Landlord for claims arising out of liability for bodily injury, death, personal injury, advertising
injury and property damage occurring in and about the Property and otherwise resulting from any
acts and operations of Landlord, its agents and employees, and (c) rent loss insurance, all of the
above with limits that are required by any lender(s) of Landlord, or as are otherwise reasonably
determined by Landlord. 10.2.Insurance to be Maintained by Tenant. Tenant shall purchase, at its own
expense, and keep in force at all times during this Lease the policies of insurance set forth below
in Sections 10.2.1and 10.2.2(collectively, Tenants Policies). All Tenants Policies shall (a)
be issued by an insurance company with a Best rating of A-X or better and otherwise reasonably
acceptable to Landlord and shall be licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is
located; (b) provide that said insurance shall not be canceled or materially modified unless 30
days prior written notice shall have been given to Landlord; and (c) otherwise be in such form,
and include such coverages, as Landlord may reasonably require. Certificates of Insurance, in a
form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, evidencing all of Tenants Policies shall be delivered to
Landlord by Tenant upon commencement of the Lease and renewals thereof shall be delivered at least
30 days prior to the expiration of each Tenants Policy. Tenant shall give prompt notice to
Landlord and Agent of any bodily injury, death, personal injury, advertising injury or property
damage occurring in and about the Property. 10

##### 



10.2.1.General Liability and Auto Insurance. Tenant shall purchase and maintain,
throughout the Term, a Tenants Policy(ies) of (i) commercial general or excess liability
insurance, including personal injury and property damage, in the amount of not less than
$2,000,000.00 per occurrence, and $2,000,000.00 annual general aggregate, per location; (ii)
comprehensive automobile liability insurance covering Tenant against any losses arising out of
liability for personal injuries or deaths of persons and property damage occurring in or about the
Premises in the amount of not less than $1,000,000.00 combined single limit. The Tenants Policies
required by this Section 10.2.1shall (a) name Landlord, Agent, and any party holding an interest
to which this Lease may be subordinated as additional insureds provided Landlord has provided such
information to Tenant; (b) provide coverage on an occurrence basis; (c) provide coverage for the
indemnity obligations of Tenant under this Lease; (d) contain a severability of insured parties
provision and/or a cross liability endorsement; (e) be primary, not contributing with, and not in

maintain, throughout the Term, a Tenants Policy or Policies of (i) all-risk property insurance
covering Tenants Property (at its full replacement cost), and damage to other property resulting
from any acts or operations of Tenant, and (ii) workers compensation insurance per the applicable
state statutes covering all employees of Tenant. 10.3.Waiver of Subrogation. To the extent permitted by law, and without affecting
the coverage provided by insurance required to be maintained hereunder, Landlord and Tenant each
waive any right to recover against the other for (a) damages to property, (b) damages to all or any
portion of either or both of the Premises and the Property, (c) claims arising by reason of the
foregoing, to the extent such damages and claims are insured against, or required to be insured
against, by Landlord or Tenant under this Lease, or (d) claims paid by Tenants or Landlords
workers compensation carrier. This provision is intended to waive, fully and for the benefit of
each party, any rights and/or claims which might give rise to a right of subrogation by any
insurance carrier. The coverage obtained by each party pursuant to this Lease shall include,
without limitation, a waiver of subrogation by the carrier which conforms to the provisions of this
section. 11.ALTERATIONS. 11.1.Procedural Requirements. Tenant may, from time to time, at its expense, make
alterations or improvements in and to the Premises (hereinafter collectively referred to as
Alterations), provided that Tenant first obtains the written consent of Landlord in each
instance. Landlords consent to Alterations shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that:
(a) the Alterations are non-structural and the structural integrity of the Property shall not be
affected; (b) the Alterations are to the interior of the Premises; (c) the proper functioning of
the mechanical, electrical, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning (HVAC), sanitary and other
service systems of the Property shall not be adversely affected and the usage of such systems by
Tenant shall not be increased; (d) the Alterations have no adverse effect on other leased premises
in the Property; (e) Tenant shall have appropriate insurance coverage, reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord, regarding the performance and installation of the Alterations; (f) the Alterations shall
conform with all other requirements of this Lease; and (g) Tenant shall have provided Landlord with
reasonably detailed plans for such Alterations in advance of requesting Landlords consent.
Additionally, before proceeding with any Alterations, Tenant shall (i) at Tenants expense, obtain
all necessary governmental permits and certificates for the commencement and prosecution of
Alterations; (ii) submit to Agent, for Landlords written approval, working drawings, plans and
specifications and all permits for the work to be done and Tenant shall not proceed with such
Alterations until it has received said approval; and (iii) cause those contractors, materialmen and
suppliers engaged to perform the Alterations to deliver to Landlord certificates of insurance (in a
form reasonably acceptable to Landlord) evidencing policies of commercial general liability
insurance (providing the same coverages as required in Section 10.2.1above) and workers
compensation insurance. Such insurance policies shall satisfy the obligations imposed under
Section 10.2.1(a)through (d)and (f). After obtaining Landlords approval to the Alterations,
Tenant shall give Landlord at least five days prior written notice of the commencement of any
Alterations at the Premises, and Landlord may elect to record and post notices of
non-responsibility at the Premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 11.1, Landlords consent shall not be required for Alterations satisfying clauses (a)
through (f) above and costing $15,000.00 or less in any one instance (up to a 11




---



##### 



maximum aggregate of $50,000.00 over the Term) provided that Tenant notifies Landlord of such
Alterations prior to commencing thereon and obtains all approvals and permits necessary for the
commencement and prosecution of such Alterations. 11.2.Performance of Alterations. Tenant shall cause the Alterations to be performed
in compliance with all applicable permits, laws and requirements of public authorities, and with
Landlords reasonable rules and regulations or any other restrictions that Landlord or Agent may
impose on the Alterations. Tenant shall cause the Alterations to be diligently performed in a good
and workmanlike manner, using new materials and equipment at least equal in quality and class to
the standards for the Property established by Landlord or Agent. Tenant shall obtain all
necessary permits and certificates for final governmental approval of the Alterations and shall
provide Landlord with as built plans to the extent as built plans are generated, copies of all
construction contracts, governmental permits and certificates and proof of payment for all labor
and materials, including, without limitation, copies of paid invoices and final lien waivers. 11.3.Lien Prohibition. Tenant shall pay when due all claims for labor and material
furnished to the Premises in connection with the Alterations. Tenant shall not permit any
mechanics or materialmens liens to attach to the Premises or the Property. Tenant, at its
expense, shall procure the satisfaction or discharge of record of all such liens and encumbrances
within 60 days after the filing thereof; or, within such sixty (60) day period, Tenant shall
provide Landlord, at Tenants sole expense, with endorsements (satisfactory, both in form and
substance, to Landlord and the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust) to the existing title
insurance policies of Landlord and the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust, insuring against
the existence of, and any attempted enforcement of, such lien or encumbrance. In the event Tenant
has not so performed, Landlord may, at its option, pay and discharge such liens and Tenant shall be
responsible to reimburse Landlord, on demand and as Additional Rent under this Lease, for all costs
and expenses incurred in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the rate set forth
in Section 22.3, which expenses shall include reasonable fees of attorneys of Landlords choosing,
and any costs in posting bond to effect discharge or release of the lien as an encumbrance against
the Premises or the Property. 12.LANDLORDS AND TENANTS PROPERTY. 12.1.Landlords Property. Subject to Section 12.2, all fixtures, machinery,
equipment, improvements and appurtenances attached to, or built into, the Premises at the
commencement of, or during the Term, whether or not placed there by or at the expense of Tenant,
shall become and remain a part of the Premises; shall be deemed the property of Landlord (the
Landlords Property), without compensation or credit to Tenant; and shall not be removed by
Tenant at the Expiration Date. Further, any personal property in the Premises on the Commencement
Date, movable or otherwise, unless installed and paid for by Tenant, shall be and shall remain the
property of Landlord and shall not be removed by Tenant. In no event shall Tenant remove any of
the following materials or equipment without Landlords prior written consent (which consent may be
given or withheld in Landlords reasonable discretion): any power wiring or power panels, lighting
or lighting fixtures, wall or window coverings, carpets or other floor coverings, heaters, air
conditioners or any other HVAC equipment, fencing or security gates, or other similar building
operating equipment and decorations. 12.2.Tenants Property. All movable non-structural partitions, business and trade
fixtures, machinery and equipment, communications equipment and office equipment that are installed
in the Premises by, or for the account of, Tenant and without expense to Landlord and that can be
removed without structural damage to the Property, and all furniture, furnishings and other
articles of movable personal property owned by Tenant and located in the Premises (collectively,
the Tenants Property) shall be and shall remain the property of Tenant and may be removed by
Tenant at any time during the Term, provided Tenant repairs or pays the cost of repairing any
damage to the Premises or to the Property resulting from the installation and/or removal thereof.
At or before the Expiration Date, or the date of any earlier termination, Tenant, at its expense,
shall remove from the Premises all of Tenants Property and any Alterations that, at such time as
Landlord consents to such Alterations, Landlord informs Tenant that such Alterations must be
removed from the Premises at the end of the Term and Tenant shall repair (to Landlords reasonable
satisfaction) any damage to the Premises or the Property resulting from any installation and/or
removal of Tenants Property or Alterations. Any other items of Tenants Property that shall
remain in the Premises after the Expiration Date, or following an 12




---



##### 



earlier termination date, may, at the option of Landlord, be deemed to have been abandoned,
and in such case, such items may be retained by Landlord as its property or be disposed of by
Landlord, in Landlords sole and absolute discretion and without accountability, at Tenants
expense. 13.REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE. 13.1.Tenant Repairs and Maintenance. Throughout the Term, Tenant shall, at its sole
cost and expense: (i) both (x) maintain and preserve, in good condition (subject to normal and
customary wear and tear), and (y) perform any and all repairs and replacements required in order to
so maintain and preserve, in good condition, the Premises and the fixtures and appurtenances
therein (including, but not limited to, the Premises plumbing and HVAC systems, all doors,
overhead or otherwise, glass and levelers located in the Premises or otherwise available in the
Property for Tenants sole use; and excluding, however, only those specific components of the
Premises for which Landlord is expressly responsible under Section 13.2); and (ii) except to the
extent Landlord elects to repair and maintain the HVAC systems as part of General Maintenance
Services (as hereinafter defined), maintain, in full force and effect, a preventative maintenance
and service contract with a reputable service provider for maintenance of the HVAC systems of the
Premises (the HVAC Maintenance Contract). The terms and provisions of any such HVAC Maintenance
Contract shall require that the service provider maintain the Premises HVAC system in accordance
with the manufacturers recommendations and otherwise in accordance with normal, customary and
reasonable practices in the geographic area in which the Premises is located and for HVAC systems
comparable to the Premises HVAC system. In addition to Tenants obligations under (i) and (ii)
above, Tenant shall also be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred to perform any and all
repairs and replacements (whether structural or non-structural; interior or exterior; and ordinary
or extraordinary), in and to the Premises and the Property and the facilities and systems thereof,
if and to the extent that the need for such repairs or replacements arises directly or indirectly
from any or all of: (a) the performance or existence of any Alterations, (b) the installation, use
or operation of Tenants Property in the Premises, (c) the moving of Tenants Property in or out of
the Property, and (d) any act, omission, misuse, or neglect of Tenant, any of its subtenants, or
others entering into the Premises by act or omission of Tenant or any subtenant. Any repairs or
replacements required to be made by Tenant to any or all of the structural components of the
Property and the mechanical, electrical, sanitary, HVAC, or other systems of the Property or
Premises shall be performed by appropriately licensed contractors approved by Landlord, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. All such repairs or replacements shall be subject to
the supervision and control of Landlord, and all repairs and replacements shall be made with
materials of equal or better quality than the items being repaired or replaced. 13.1.1. General Maintenance Services.Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, however, from
time to time during the Term, Landlord may elect, in its sole discretion and by delivery of written
notice to Tenant, to perform on behalf of Tenant, all or some portion of the repairs, maintenance,
restoration and replacement in and to the Premises required to be performed by Tenant under this
Lease (any such repairs, maintenance, restoration and/or replacement activities that Landlord
elects to perform on behalf of Tenant are herein collectively referred to as General Maintenance
Services). Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost or value of all General Maintenance
Services provided by Landlord as Additional Rent, simultaneously with the payment of Operating
Expenses as part of Estimated Additional Rent (on a monthly estimated basis subject to annual
reconciliation, as described in Section 3.3above). Unless and until Landlord affirmatively elects
to provide General Maintenance Services, nothing contained herein shall be construed to obligate
Landlord to perform any General Maintenance Services or, except as otherwise expressly provided in
Section 13.2, to repair, maintain, restore or replace any portion of the Premises. Landlord may
from time to time, in its sole discretion, (x) reduce or expand the scope of the General
Maintenance Services that Landlord has elected to provide or (y) revoke its election to provide any
or all of the General Maintenance Services, in either event, upon delivery of not less than thirty
(30) days prior written notice to Tenant. 13.1.2.HVAC Maintenance Contract. If Landlord does not elect to repair and
maintain the HVAC systems as part of General Maintenance Services, or revokes such election at any
time after having made such election, then, within 30 days following either (a) the Commencement
Date or (b) the date on which Landlord advises Tenant that Landlord will no longer provide General
Maintenance Services for the HVAC system, whichever date is 13




---



##### 



applicable, Tenant shall procure and deliver to Landlord the HVAC Maintenance Contract.
Thereafter, Tenant shall provide to Landlord a copy of renewals or replacements of such HVAC
Maintenance Contract no later than 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiry date of the existing
HVAC Maintenance Contract. If Tenant fails to timely deliver to Landlord the HVAC Maintenance
Contract (or any applicable renewal or replacement thereof), then Landlord shall have the right to
contract directly for the periodic maintenance of the HVAC systems in the Premises and to charge
the cost thereof back to Tenant as Additional Rent. Landlord shall service the HVAC units serving
the Premises and perform such repairs as may be necessary to place those HVAC units in good working
order, and thereafter certify to Tenant that the HVAC units serving the Premises are in good
working order. If any HVAC unit serving the Premises should fail during the Term, including any
extension thereof, Landlord shall initially bear the cost of replacing the failed unit or units
subject to the remainder of this Section. The cost of the labor, materials, and the unit itself
shall be amortized at a rate of eleven percent (11%) over fifteen (15) years. Tenant shall be
required to pay, during the balance of the Term (including the extension, if Tenant exercises its
option to extend the Term) the annual amortization cost of replacement, on a monthly basis, during
the remaining term of the Lease or any extension thereof. Tenant shall have the option to
reimburse the Landlord for Tenants proportionate share of said replacement HVAC unit, at 0%
interest, provided that Landlord is in receipt of Tenants proportionate share prior to the
installation of the new unit. Tenants proportionate share shall be calculated as follows: The
total cost of the labor, materials, and the unit itself, including any necessary roof work
(amortized at 11% interest) / 15 years x months remaining in the Lease Term. In the event that
Tenant renews this Lease for an additional term, Tenant shall continue to pay to Landlord its
monthly amortized share of the new HVAC unit(s) for the months of the renewal term (calculated as
stated above). Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, in the event that the HVAC units
serving the Premises fail and require replacement during the first six (6) months of the Term,
Tenant shall not be responsible for paying an amortized monthly amount during the first six (6)
months of the Term, and shall instead commence making such payments from and after the seventh
(7th) month of the Term. 13.2.Landlord Repairs. Landlord shall repair any problems with the electrical system
serving the Premises that arise within the first sixty (60) days after the Commencement Date at
Landlords sole cost and expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord shall
maintain and preserve, in good condition, repair, replace and restore the foundation, exterior and
interior load-bearing walls, roof structure and roof covering and tuckpointing of the Property,
electrical, sewer, and plumbing to the extent serving more than one tenant premises; provided,
however, that (i) subject to the exclusions set forth above, all costs and expenses so incurred by
Landlord to repair, replace and restore the above items shall constitute Operating Expenses;
provided, however, that with respect to any costs incurred in the replacement context, those costs
shall not constitute an Operating Expense except to the extent that such costs so qualify under
Section 3.1.1(vii); and (ii) notwithstanding (i) above, in the event that any such repair,
replacement or restoration is necessitated by any or all of the matters set forth in Sections
13.1(a) through (d) above (collectively, Tenant Necessitated Repairs), then Tenant shall be
required to reimburse Landlord for all costs and expenses that Landlord incurs in order to perform
such Tenant Necessitated Repairs, and such reimbursement shall be paid, in full, within 10 days
after Landlords delivery of demand therefor. In the event Landlord fails to complete a
maintenance, repair or replacement obligation within a reasonable period of time after receiving
from Tenant written notice of the need for such repairs, or immediately in the event of an
emergency, then Tenant shall have the right to complete such obligation and Landlord shall
reimburse Tenant for the reasonable costs thereof. 14.UTILITIES. Tenant shall purchase all utility services and shall provide for
cleaning and extermination services. As provided in Section 3.1.1.above, utility charges are
included within Operating Expenses; therefore, when and as Tenant pays estimated Operating
Expenses, those estimated monthly payments shall include monthly estimated installments of utility
charges; nevertheless, at Landlords election or with Landlords consent, Tenant may pay the
utility charges for its Premises directly to the utility or municipality providing such service,
and in that event: (a) all charges shall be paid by Tenant before they become delinquent; and (b)
utility charges for the Premises shall not be included in estimated Operating Expenses. Tenant
shall be solely responsible for the repair and maintenance of any meters necessary in connection
with such services. Tenants use of electrical energy in the Premises shall not, at any time,
exceed the capacity of either or both of (i) any of the electrical conductors and equipment in or 14




---



##### 



otherwise servicing the Premises; and (ii) the HVAC systems of either or both of the Premises
and the Property. 15.INVOLUNTARY CESSATION OF SERVICES. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to avoid cessation of service including performing repairs during non-business hours where
reasonable without incurring additional expense, however Landlord reserves the right, without any
liability to Tenant and without affecting Tenants covenants and obligations hereunder, to stop
service of any or all of the HVAC, electric, sanitary, elevator (if any), and other systems serving
the Premises, or to stop any other services required by Landlord under this Lease, whenever and for
so long as may be necessary by reason of (i) accidents, emergencies, strikes, or the making of
repairs or changes which Landlord or Agent, in good faith, deems necessary or (ii) any other cause
beyond Landlords reasonable control. Further, it is also understood and agreed that Landlord or
Agent shall have no liability or responsibility for a cessation of services to the Premises or to
the Property that occurs as a result of causes beyond Landlords or Agents reasonable control. No
such interruption of service shall be deemed an eviction or disturbance of Tenants use and
possession of the Premises or any part thereof, or render Landlord or Agent liable to Tenant for
damages, or relieve Tenant from performance of Tenants obligations under this Lease, including,
but not limited to, the obligation to pay Rent; provided, however, that if any interruption of
services persists for a period in excess of five (5) consecutive business days Tenant shall, as
Tenants sole remedy, be entitled to a proportionate abatement of Rent to the extent, if any, of
any actual loss of use of the Premises by Tenant. 16.LANDLORDS RIGHTS. Landlord, Agent and their respective agents, employees and
representatives shall have the right to enter and/or pass through the Premises at any reasonable
time or times upon reasonable prior notice (except in the event of emergency): (a) to examine and
inspect the Premises and to show them to actual and prospective lenders, prospective purchasers or
mortgagees of the Property or providers of capital to Landlord and its affiliates; and (b) to make
such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements in or to all or any portion of either or both
of the Premises and the Property, or the Propertys facilities and equipment as Landlord is
required or desires to make, and Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid
interference with Tenants use, including performing repairs during non-business hours where
reasonable without incurring additional expense. Landlord and Agent shall be allowed to take all
materials into and upon the Premises that may be required in connection with any repairs,
alterations, additions or improvements, without any liability to Tenant and without any reduction
or modification of Tenants covenants and obligations hereunder; provided, however, that Landlord
shall use reasonable efforts to limit interference with Tenants business operations and Tenants
occupancy and use of the Premises. During the period of six months prior to the Expiration Date
(or at any time, if Tenant has vacated or abandoned the Premises or is otherwise in default under
this Lease), Landlord and its agents may exhibit the Premises to prospective tenants.
Additionally, Landlord and Agent shall have the following rights with respect to the Premises,
exercisable without notice to Tenant, without liability to Tenant, and without being deemed an
eviction or disturbance of Tenants use or possession of the Premises or giving rise to any claim
for setoff or abatement of Rent: (i) to designate and approve, prior to installation, all types of
signs; (ii) to have pass keys, access cards, or both, to the Premises for use in emergency
situations; and (iii) to decorate, remodel, repair, alter or otherwise prepare the Premises for
reoccupancy at any time after Tenant vacates or abandons the Premises for more than thirty (30)
consecutive days or without notice to Landlord of Tenants intention to reoccupy the Premises. 17.NON-LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION. 17.1.Non-Liability. Except as provided in Section 17.2.2, none of Landlord, Agent,
any other managing agent, or their respective affiliates, owners, partners, directors, officers,
agents and employees shall be liable to Tenant for any loss, injury, or damage, to Tenant or to any
other person, or to its or their property, irrespective of the cause of such injury, damage or
loss. Further, except as provided in Section 17.2.2, none of Landlord, Agent, any other managing
agent, or their respective affiliates, owners, partners, directors, officers, agents and employees
shall be liable to Tenant (a) for any damage caused by other tenants or persons that are not agents
of Landlord in, upon or about the Property, or caused by operations in construction of any public
or quasi-public work; or (b) injury or damage to person or property caused by fire, or theft, or
resulting from the operation of heating or air conditioning or lighting apparatus, or from falling
plaster, or from steam, gas, electricity, water, rain, snow, ice, or dampness, that may 15

leak or flow from any part of the Property, or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing work of
the same. 17.2.Indemnification. 17.2.1.Tenant Indemnification. Tenant hereby indemnifies, defends, and holds
Landlord, Agent and their respective affiliates, owners, partners, directors, officers, agents and
employees (collectively, Landlord Indemnified Parties) harmless from and against any and all
Losses (defined below) arising from or in connection with any or all of: (a) the conduct or
management by Tenant of either or both the Property and the Premises or any business therein, or
any work or Alterations done, or any condition created by any or all of Tenant and Tenants Parties
in or about the Premises during the Term or during the period of time, if any, prior to the
Commencement Date that Tenant is given access to the Premises; (b) any act, omission or negligence
of any or all of Tenant and Tenants Parties; (c) any accident, injury or damage whatsoever (unless
caused by the negligence or intentional wrongful act of Landlord or any of Landlords employees,
agents or representatives) occurring in, at or upon either or both of the Property and the Premises
and caused by any or all of Tenant and Tenants Parties; (d) any breach by Tenant of any of its
warranties and representations under this Lease; (e) any actions necessary to protect Landlords
interest under this Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding or other proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code;
(f) any violation or alleged violation by any or all of Tenant and Tenants Parties of any Law
including, without limitation, any Environmental Law; (g) any breach of the provisions of Section 9
by any or all of Tenant and Tenants Parties; (h) claims for work or labor performed or materials
supplies furnished to or at the request of any or all of Tenant and Tenants Parties; (i) claims
arising from any breach or default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any covenant
contained in this Lease; (j) any Hazardous Materials used, exposed, emitted, released, discharged,
generated, manufactured, sold, transported, handled, stored, treated, reused, presented, disposed
of or recycled in, at, near or under all or any portion of the Premises as a result of the acts or
omissions of any or all of Tenant and Tenants Parties; and (k) the violation of any Environmental
Law or any permit, application or consent required in connection with any Environmental Law by any
or all of Tenant and Tenants Parties with respect to the Premises during the Term, excluding,
however, any violation of any Environmental Law resulting directly from the acts or omissions of
Landlord and Landlords employees, agents and contractors (collectively, Tenants Indemnified
Matters). In case any action or proceeding is brought against any or all of Landlord and the
Landlord Indemnified Parties by reason of any of Tenants Indemnified Matters, Tenant, upon notice
from any or all of Landlord, Agent or any Superior Party (defined below), shall resist and defend
such action or proceeding by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. The term Losses shall
mean all claims, demands, expenses, actions, judgments, damages (actual, but not consequential),
penalties, fines, liabilities, losses of every kind and nature (including, without limitation,
property damage, diminution in value of Landlords interest in the Premises or the Property,
damages for the loss or restriction on use of any space or amenity within the Premises or the
Property, damages arising from any adverse impact on marketing space in the Property, sums paid in
settlement of claims and any costs and expenses associated with injury, illness or death to or of
any person), suits, administrative proceedings, costs and fees, including, without limitation,
attorneys and consultants reasonable fees and expenses, and the costs of cleanup, remediation,
removal and restoration, that are in any way related to any matter covered by the foregoing
indemnity. The provisions of this Section 17.2.1shall survive the expiration or termination of
this Lease. 17.2.2.Landlord Indemnification. Landlord hereby indemnifies, defends and holds
Tenant harmless from and against any and all Losses actually suffered or incurred by Tenant as the
direct result of (i) any negligent, willful or intentional acts or omissions of any or all of
Landlord, Agent and any parties within the direct control of either or both of Landlord and Agent
or (ii) any default by Landlord hereunder. In the event that any action or proceeding is brought
against Tenant, and the foregoing indemnity is applicable to such action or proceeding, then
Landlord, upon notice from Tenant, shall resist and defend such action or proceeding by counsel
reasonably satisfactory to Tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Lease, however, in all events and under all circumstances, the liability of Landlord to Tenant
shall be limited to the interest of Landlord in the Property, the rents therefrom, and any
available insurance proceeds and Tenant agrees to look solely to Landlords interest in the
Property, the rents therefrom and any available insurance proceeds for the recovery of any judgment
or award against Landlord, it being intended that Landlord shall not be 16




---



##### 



personally liable for any judgment or deficiency. The provisions of this Section 17.2.2shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. 17.3.Force Majeure. Neither the obligations of Tenant (except the obligation to pay
Rent and the obligation to maintain insurance and provide evidence thereof) nor Landlord shall be
affected, impaired or excused, and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any liability whatsoever
to the other party, with respect to any act, event or circumstance arising out of (a) failure to
fulfill, or delay in fulfilling any of its obligations under this Lease by reason of labor dispute,
governmental preemption of property in connection with a public emergency or shortages of fuel,
supplies, or labor, or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar, beyond Landlords reasonable
control; or (b) any failure or defect in the supply, quantity or character of utilities furnished
to the Premises, or by reason of any requirement, act or omission of any public utility or others
serving the Property, beyond reasonable control. 18.DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION. 18.1.Notification and Repair. Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord and Agent
of (a) any fire or other casualty to the Premises or the Property, and (b) any damage to, or defect
in, any part or appurtenance of the Propertys sanitary, electrical, HVAC, elevator or other
systems located in or passing through the Premises or any part thereof. Subject to the provisions
of Section 18.3below, if either or both of the Property and the Premises is damaged by fire or
other insured casualty, Landlord shall repair (or cause Agent to repair) the damage and restore and
rebuild the Property and/or the Premises (except for Tenants Property) with reasonable dispatch
after (x) notice to it of the damage or destruction and (y) the adjustment of the insurance
proceeds attributable to such damage. Subject to the provisions of Section 18.3below, Tenant
shall not be entitled to terminate this Lease and no damages, compensation or claim shall be
payable by Landlord for purported inconvenience, loss of business or annoyance arising from any
repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises or of the Property pursuant to this Section.
Landlord (or Agent, as the case may be) shall use its diligent, good faith efforts to make such
repair or restoration promptly and in such manner as not to unreasonably interfere with Tenants
use and occupancy of the Premises, but Landlord or Agent shall not be required to do such repair or
restoration work except during normal business hours of business days. 18.2.Rental Abatement. Provided that any damage to either or both of the Property
and the Premises is not caused by, or is not the result of acts or omissions by, any or all of
Tenant and Tenants Parties, if (a) the Property is damaged by fire or other casualty thereby
causing the Premises to be inaccessible or (b) the Premises are partially damaged by fire or other
casualty, the Rent shall be proportionally abated to the extent of any actual loss of use of the
Premises by Tenant. 18.3.Total Destruction. If the Property or the Premises shall be totally destroyed
by fire or other casualty, or if the Property shall be so damaged by fire or other casualty that
(in the reasonable opinion of a reputable contractor or architect designated by Landlord): (i) its
repair or restoration requires more than 180 days or (ii) such repair or restoration requires the
expenditure of more than 50% of the full insurable value of the Property immediately prior to the
casualty or (iii) the damage (x) is less than the amount stated in (ii) above, but more than 10% of
the full insurable value of the Property; and (y) occurs during the last two years of Lease Term,
Landlord and Tenant shall each have the option to terminate this Lease (by so advising the other,
in writing) within 10 days after said contractor or architect delivers written notice of its
opinion to Landlord and Tenant, but in all events prior to the commencement of any restoration of
the Premises or the Property by Landlord. In such event, the termination shall be effective as of
the date upon which either Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, receives timely written notice
from the other terminating this Lease pursuant to the preceding sentence. If neither Landlord nor
Tenant timely delivers a termination notice, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the issuer of any casualty insurance policies on the Property
fails to make available to Landlord sufficient proceeds for restoration of the Premises or the
Property, then Landlord may, at Landlords sole option, terminate this Lease by giving Tenant
written notice to such effect within 30 days after Landlord receives notice from the insurance
company that such proceeds shall not be made available, in which event the termination of this
Lease shall be effective as of the date Tenant receives written notice form landlord of Landlords
election to terminate this Lease. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant, and Tenant shall not
be entitled to terminate this Lease by virtue of any delays in completion of repairs and
restoration. For purposes of this Section 18.3only, 17

##### 



full insurable value shall mean replacement cost, less the cost of footings, foundations and
other structures below grade. 18.4.Insurance Proceeds. Landlord shall not be obligated to expend in repairs and
restoration an amount in excess of the proceeds of insurance recovered with respect to any
casualty. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord shall be entitled to the full proceeds of any
insurance coverage whether carried by Landlord or Tenant, for damage to either or both of the
Premises and the Property (excluding any proceeds for damage to Tenants Property). In the event
that either or both of the Premises and the Property are not repaired or reconstructed, all
proceeds of insurance (excluding any proceeds covering Tenants Property), whether carried by
Landlord or Tenant, shall be payable to Landlord. Landlords duty to repair the Premises and the
Property (excluding Tenants Property) is limited to repairing the Premises to the condition
existing immediately prior to such fire or other casualty. 19.EMINENT DOMAIN. If the whole, or any substantial portion, of the Property is
taken or condemned for any public use under any Law or by right of eminent domain, or by private
purchase in lieu thereof, and such taking would prevent or materially interfere with Tenants
reasonable use of the Premises, this Lease shall terminate effective when the physical taking of
said Premises occurs. If less than a substantial portion of the Property is so taken or condemned,
or if the taking or condemnation is temporary (regardless of the portion of the Property affected),
this Lease shall not terminate, but the Rent payable hereunder shall be proportionally abated to
the extent of any actual loss of use of the Premises by Tenant and Landlord shall restore the
Premises to a complete architectural unit. Landlord shall be entitled to any and all payment,
income, rent or award, or any interest therein whatsoever, which may be paid or made in connection
with such a taking or conveyance, and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of
any unexpired portion of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any compensation specifically
and independently awarded to Tenant for loss of business or goodwill, relocation, or for its
personal property, shall be the property of Tenant. 20.SURRENDER AND HOLDOVER. On the last day of the Term, or upon any earlier
termination of this Lease, or upon any re-entry by Landlord upon the Premises, (a) Tenant shall
quit and surrender the Premises to Landlord broom-clean and in good order, condition and repair
(as defined by Exhibit C, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference), except for
ordinary wear and tear and such damage or destruction as Landlord is required to repair or restore
under this Lease, or any damage that, under Section 18.3, would give Tenant a right to terminate
this Lease, (b) Tenant shall remove all of Tenants Property therefrom, except as otherwise
expressly provided in this Lease, and (c) Tenant shall surrender to Landlord any and all keys,
access cards, computer codes or any other items used to access the Premises. Landlord shall be
permitted to inspect the Premises in order to verify compliance with this Section 20at any time
prior to (x) the Expiration Date, (y) the effective date of any earlier termination of this Lease,
or (z) the surrender date otherwise agreed to in writing by Landlord and Tenant. The obligations
imposed under the first sentence of this Section 20shall survive the termination or expiration of
this Lease. If any repairs are required to be performed in, to or at the Premises (pursuant to the
first sentence of this Section 20or any other applicable provision of this Lease) upon the
expiration or termination of the Term, Tenant shall cause such repairs to be performed, to
Landlords reasonable satisfaction, within 10 business days after the date on which this Lease is
terminated or expired. If Tenant fails to timely comply with the preceding sentence, then Landlord
shall have the right to cause the repairs to be performed, at Tenants expense, and all such
expenses so incurred by Landlord shall bear interest (at the rate specified in the second sentence
of Section 22.3) from the date the expense is incurred until the date paid, in full, by Tenant
(inclusive of interest). If Tenant remains in possession after the Expiration Date hereof or after
any earlier termination date of this Lease or of Tenants right to possession: (i) Tenant shall
be deemed a tenant-at-will; (ii) Tenant shall pay Base Rent at a rate equal to one hundred fifty
percent (150%) of the rate of Base Rent last prevailing hereunder; (iii) Tenant shall continue to
be responsible for its proportionate share of Operating Expenses hereunder; and (iv) also shall pay
all actual damages sustained by Landlord, directly by reason of Tenants remaining in possession
after the expiration or termination of this Lease. There shall be no renewal or extension of this
Lease by operation of law, and a tenancy-at-will may be terminated by either party hereto upon
thirty (30) days prior written notice given by the terminating party to the non-terminating party.
The provisions of this Section 20shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of any re-entry rights
of Landlord provided hereunder or by law. 18

21.EVENTS OF DEFAULT. 21.1.Bankruptcy of Tenant. It shall be a default by Tenant under this Lease if
Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or files a voluntary petition under any
state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency law, or an involuntary petition alleging an act of
bankruptcy or insolvency is filed against Tenant under any state or federal bankruptcy or
insolvency law that is not dismissed within 90 days, or whenever a petition is filed by or against
(to the extent not dismissed within 90 days) Tenant under the reorganization provisions of the
United States Bankruptcy Code or under the provisions of any state or federal law of like import,
or whenever a petition shall be filed by Tenant under the arrangement provisions of the United
States Bankruptcy Code or similar state or federal law, or whenever a receiver of Tenant, or of, or
for, the property of Tenant shall be appointed, or Tenant admits it is insolvent or is not able to
pay its debts as they mature. 21.2.Default Provisions. Each of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant
under this Lease: (a) if Tenant fails to pay Rent or any other payment when due hereunder within
five days after written notice from Landlord of such failure to pay on the due date; provided,
however, that if in any consecutive 12 month period, Tenant shall, on two (2) separate occasions,
fail to pay any installment of Rent on the date such installment of Rent is due, then, on the third
such occasion and on each occasion thereafter on which Tenant shall fail to pay an installment of
Rent on the date such installment of Rent is due, Landlord shall be relieved from any obligation to
provide notice to Tenant, and Tenant shall then no longer have a five day period in which to cure
any such failure; or (b) if Tenant fails, whether by action or inaction, to timely comply with, or
satisfy, any or all of the obligations imposed on Tenant under this Lease (other than the
obligation to pay Rent) for a period of 30 days after Landlords delivery to Tenant of written
notice of such default under this Section 21.2(b); provided, however, that if the default cannot,
by its nature, be cured within such 30 day period, but Tenant commences and diligently pursues a
cure of such default promptly within the initial 30 day cure period, then Landlord shall not
exercise its remedies under Section 22unless such default remains uncured for more than 60 days
after the initial delivery of Landlords original default notice. 22.RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. 22.1.Landlords Cure Rights Upon Default of Tenant. If Tenant defaults in the
performance of any of its obligations under this Lease, and fails to cure such default on a timely
basis (pursuant to Section 21.2), Landlord, without thereby waiving such default, may (but shall
not be obligated to) perform the same for the account, and at the expense of, Tenant. 22.2.Landlords Remedies. In the event of any default by Tenant under this Lease,
Landlord, at its option, and after any applicable notice and cure period (as required pursuant to
Section 21.2), but without additional notice or demand from Landlord, if any, as provided in
Section 21.2has expired, may, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided in this Lease,
or otherwise at law or in equity: (a) terminate this Lease and Tenants right of possession of the
Premises; or (b) terminate Tenants right of possession of the Premises without terminating this
Lease; provided, however, that Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, whether
Landlord elects to proceed under Subsections (a) or (b) above, relet the Premises, or any part
thereof for the account of Tenant, for such rent and term and upon such terms and conditions as are
acceptable to landlord and commercially reasonable. In addition, for purposes of any reletting,

Landlord is authorized to decorate, repair, alter and improve the Premises to the extent deemed
necessary by Landlord, in its reasonable discretion. In the event of the termination of this Lease
by Landlord pursuant to (a) above, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant (i) all
damages and other sums that Landlord is entitled to recover under any provision of this Lease or at
law or in equity, including, but not limited to, all fixed dollar amounts of Base Rent and
Additional Rent accrued and unpaid for the period up to and including such termination date; (ii)
all other additional sums payable by Tenant, or for which Tenant is liable, or in respect of which
Tenant has agreed to indemnify Landlord, under any of the provisions of this Lease, that may be
then owing and unpaid; (iii) all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, court costs and
attorneys reasonable fees) incurred by Landlord in the enforcement of its rights and remedies
under this Lease; and (iv) any damages provable by Landlord as a matter of law including, without
limitation, an amount equal to the positive difference, if any, between (x) the discounted
present value (at 10% per annum) of the Base Rent provided to be paid for the remainder of the
Term (measured from the effective termination date 19




---



##### 



of this Lease) and (y) the fair market rental value of the Leased Premises (determined at the
date of termination of this Lease). If Landlord elects to pursue its rights and remedies under
Subsection (b) above, and the Premises are relet and a sufficient sum is not realized therefrom,
then to satisfy the payment, when due, of Base Rent and Additional Rent reserved under the Lease
for any monthly period (after payment of all Landlords reasonable expenses of reletting), Tenant
shall, in Landlords sole judgment, either (i) pay any such deficiency monthly or (ii) pay such
deficiency on an accelerated basis, which accelerated deficiency shall be discounted at a rate of
10% per annum. If Landlord elects to pursue its rights and remedies under Subsection (b) above,
and Landlord fails to relet the Premises, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the sum of (x) the
projected costs of Landlords expenses of reletting (including the anticipated costs of repairs,
alterations, improvements, additions, legal fees and brokerage commissions) as reasonably estimated
by Landlord and (y) the accelerated amount of base Rent and Additional Rent due under the Lease for
the balance of the Term, discounted to present value (a rate of 6% per annum). Tenant agrees that
Landlord may file suit to recover any sums due to Landlord hereunder from time to time and that
such suit or recovery of any amount due Landlord hereunder shall not be any defense to any
subsequent action brought for any amount not theretofore reduced to judgment in favor of Landlord.
If Landlord elects to pursue its rights and remedies under Subsection (b), then Landlord shall at
any time have the further right and remedy to rescind such election and pursue its rights and
remedies under Subsection (a). In the event Landlord elects, pursuant to clause (b) of this
Section 22.2, to terminate Tenants right of possession only, without terminating this Lease,
Landlord may, at Landlords option, enter into the Premises, remove Tenants Property, Tenants
signs and other evidences of tenancy, and take and hold possession thereof, as provided in Section
20hereof; provided, however, that such entry and possession shall not terminate this Lease or
release Tenant, in whole or in part, from Tenants obligation to pay the Base Rent and Additional
Rent reserved hereunder for the full Term, or from any other obligation of Tenant under this Lease.
Any and all property that may be removed from the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the authority
of the Lease or of law, to which Tenant is or may be entitled, may be handled, removed or stored by
Landlord at the sole risk, cost and expense of Tenant, and in no event or circumstance shall
Landlord be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, upon demand, any and all expenses incurred in such removal and all storage charges
against such property so long as the same shall be in Landlords possession or under Landlords
control. Any such property of Tenant not retaken from storage by Tenant within thirty (30) days
after the end of the Term, however terminated, shall be conclusively presumed to have been conveyed
by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease as in a bill of sale, without further payment or credit by
Landlord to Tenant. 22.3.Additional Rights of Landlord. Any and all costs, expenses and disbursements,
of any kind or nature, incurred by Landlord or Agent in connection with the enforcement of any and
all of the terms and provisions of this Lease, including attorneys reasonable fees (through all
appellate proceedings), shall be due and payable (as Additional Rent) upon Landlords submission of
an invoice therefor. All sums advanced by Landlord or Agent on account of Tenant under this
Section, or pursuant to any other provision of this Lease, and all Base Rent and Additional Rent,
if delinquent or not paid by Tenant and received by Landlord when due hereunder, shall bear
interest at the rate of 3% per annum above the prime or reference or base rate (on a per
annum basis) of interest publicly announced as such, from time to time, by the Bank One, or its
successor (Default Interest), from the due date thereof until paid, and such interest shall be
and constitute Additional Rent and be due and payable upon Landlords or Agents submission of an
invoice therefor. The various rights, remedies and elections of Landlord reserved, expressed or
contained herein are cumulative and no one of them shall be deemed to be exclusive of the others or
of such other rights, remedies, options or elections as are now or may hereafter be conferred upon
Landlord by law. 22.4.Event of Bankruptcy. In addition to, and in no way limiting the other remedies
set forth herein, Landlord and Tenant agree that if Tenant ever becomes the subject of a voluntary
or involuntary bankruptcy, reorganization, composition, or other similar type proceeding under the
federal bankruptcy laws, as now enacted or hereinafter amended, then: (a) adequate assurance of
future performance by tenant pursuant to bankruptcy Code Section 365 will include (but not be
limited to) payment of an additional/new security deposit in the amount of three times the then
current Base Rent payable hereunder; (b) any person or entity to which this Lease is assigned,
pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be deemed, without further act or deed, to
have assumed all of the obligations of Tenant arising under this 20




---



##### 



Lease on and after the effective date of such assignment, and any such assignee shall, upon
demand by Landlord, execute and deliver to Landlord an instrument confirming such assumption of
liability; (c) notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, all amounts payable by
Tenant to or on behalf of Landlord under this Lease, whether or not expressly denominated as
Rent, shall constitute rent for the purposes of Section 502(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code; and
(d) if this Lease is assigned to any person or entity pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code, any and all monies or other considerations payable or otherwise to be delivered to Landlord
or Agent (including Base Rent, Additional Rent and other amounts hereunder), shall be and remain
the exclusive property of Landlord and shall not constitute property of Tenant or of the bankruptcy
estate of Tenant. Any and all monies or other considerations constituting Landlords property
under the preceding sentence not paid or delivered to Landlord or Agent shall be held in trust by
Tenant or Tenants bankruptcy estate for the benefit of Landlord and shall be promptly paid to or
turned over to Landlord. 23.BROKER. Tenant covenants, warrants and represents that the broker set forth in
Section 1.10 (A)was the only broker to represent Tenant in the negotiation of this Lease
(Tenants Broker). Landlord covenants, warrants and represents that the broker set forth in
Section 1.10 (B)was the only broker to represent Landlord in the negotiation of this Lease
(Landlords Broker). Landlord shall be solely responsible for paying the commission of
Landlords Broker and Tenants Broker. Each party agrees to and hereby does defend, indemnify and
hold the other harmless against and from any brokerage commissions or finders fees or claims
therefor by a party claiming to have dealt with the indemnifying party and all costs, expenses and
liabilities in connection therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and
expenses, for any breach of the foregoing. The foregoing indemnification shall survive the
termination or expiration of this Lease. 24.MISCELLANEOUS. 24.1.Merger. All prior understandings and agreements between the parties are merged
in this Lease, which alone fully and completely expresses the agreement of the parties. No
agreement shall be effective to modify this Lease, in whole or in part, unless such agreement is in
writing, and is signed by the party against whom enforcement of said change or modification is
sought. 24.2.Notices. Any notice required to be given by either party pursuant to this
Lease, shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been properly given, rendered or made only
if personally delivered, or if sent by Federal Express or other comparable commercial overnight
delivery service, addressed to the other party at the addresses set forth below (or to such other
address as Landlord or Tenant may designate to each other from time to time by written notice), and
shall be deemed to have been given, rendered or made on the day so delivered or on the first
business day after having been deposited with the courier service: If to Landlord:

 24.3.Non-Waiver. The failure of either party to insist, in any one or more
instances, upon the strict performance of any one or more of the obligations of this Lease, or to
exercise any election herein contained, shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment for
the future of the performance of such one or more obligations of this Lease or of the right to
exercise such election, but the Lease shall continue and remain in full force and effect with
respect to any subsequent breach, act or omission. The receipt and acceptance by Landlord or Agent
of Base Rent or Additional Rent with knowledge of breach by Tenant of any obligation of this Lease
shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach. 24.4.Legal Costs. Any party in breach or default under this Lease (the Defaulting
Party) shall reimburse the other party (the Nondefaulting Party) upon demand for any legal fees
and court (or other administrative proceeding) costs or expenses that the Nondefaulting Party
incurs in connection with the breach or default, regardless whether suit is commenced or judgment
entered. Such costs shall include legal fees and costs incurred for the negotiation of a
settlement, enforcement of rights or otherwise. Furthermore, in the event of litigation, the court
in such action shall award to the party in whose favor a judgment is entered a reasonable sum as
attorneys fees and costs, which sum shall be paid by the losing party. Tenant shall pay Landlords
attorneys reasonable fees incurred in connection with Tenants request for Landlords consent
under provisions of this Lease governing assignment and subletting, or in connection with any other
act which Tenant proposes to do and which requires Landlords consent. 24.5.Parties Bound. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Lease, this
Lease shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the successors and assignees of the
parties hereto. Tenant hereby releases Landlord named herein from any obligations of Landlord for
any period subsequent to the conveyance and transfer of Landlords ownership interest in the
Property. In the event of such conveyance and transfer, Landlords obligations shall thereafter be
binding upon each transferee (whether Successor Landlord or otherwise). No obligation of Landlord
shall arise under this Lease until the instrument is signed by, and delivered to, both Landlord and
Tenant. 24.6.Recordation of Lease. Tenant shall not record or file this Lease (or any
memorandum hereof) in the public records of any county or state. 24.7.Survival of Obligations. Upon the expiration or other termination of this
Lease, neither party shall have any further obligation nor liability to the other except as
otherwise expressly provided in this Lease and except for such obligations as, by their nature or
under the circumstances, can only be, or by the provisions of this Lease, may be performed after
such expiration or other termination. 24.8.Governing Law; Construction. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the state in which the Property is located. If any provision of this
Lease shall be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected but
shall be enforced to the extent permitted by law. The captions, headings and titles in this Lease
are solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect its interpretation. This Lease shall
be construed without regard to any presumption or other rule requiring construction against the
party causing this Lease to be drafted. Each covenant, agreement, obligation, or other provision
of this Lease to be performed by Tenant, shall be construed as a separate and independent covenant
of Tenant, not dependent on any other provision of this Lease. All terms and words used in this
Lease, regardless of the number or gender in which they are used, shall be deemed to include any
other number and any other gender as the context may require. This Lease may be executed in
counterpart and, when all counterpart documents are executed, the counterparts shall constitute a
single binding instrument. 24.9.Time. Time is of the essence for this Lease. If the time for performance
hereunder falls on a Saturday, Sunday or a day that is recognized as a holiday in the state in
which the Property is located, then such time shall be deemed extended to the next day that is not
a Saturday, Sunday or holiday in said state. 22

LEASE EXHIBIT B WORK LETTER This Work Letter (this Work Letter) is incorporated into and made a part of the Lease. All
terms not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Lease. In the event of any
conflict between the terms and provisions of the Lease and those of this Work Letter, the terms and
provisions of this Work Letter shall control, in all events. 1. Performance of Work. Landlord shall cause to be performed, in accordance with the
terms of this Work Letter, those certain improvements (Landlord Improvements) depicted in the
plans, specifications and working drawings described in Schedule 1attached hereto and made a part
hereof (the Final Plans). All Landlord Improvements shall be performed in a good and workmanlike
manner, using new first grade quality materials. Landlord shall be responsible to obtain all
necessary governmental and municipal approvals and permits required as a condition precedent to the
performance and installation of the Landlord Improvements, and all costs and expenses incurred by
Landlord pursuant to this sentence shall be deemed to constitute Work Cost, as defined below. The
Final Plans have been prepared by LHB Engineers and Architects (Architect). All work required
for the construction and installation of the Landlord Improvements (Work) shall be performed only
by Landlords contractor(s) (collectively, the Contractor). Landlord shall use its good faith
efforts to cause the Landlord Improvements to be substantially completed by March 31, 2005 (the
Scheduled Commencement Date); however, as described in Paragraph 6below, the Commencement Date
may not actually occur on the Scheduled Commencement Date. The costs to construct the Landlord
Improvements, including, but not limited to, the cost to prepare the Final Plans (collectively, the
Work Cost), shall be paid for by Landlord (except as otherwise specifically set forth below):
provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord be obligated to pay a Work Cost in excess of the
amount that it costs to complete the Landlord Improvements as described on Schedule I, unless such
excess is incurred in connection with a Substitution, as set forth below. Tenant shall be solely
responsible for (and shall promptly reimburse Landlord for) any amount incurred in connection with
Change Orders as set forth below. 2. Change Orders. From time to time after the date of the Lease, Tenant may notify
Landlord of changes that Tenant proposes be made to the Final Plans (a Change Order). Promptly
upon Tenants delivery to Landlord of a Change Order, Landlord shall give Tenant a notice (Change
Order Notice) of both: (i) The amount, if any, Landlord would require Tenant to pay for the
change in question; and (ii) whether Landlord believes the requested change would result in a delay
in substantial completion (an Estimated Delay) and the expected period of the delay. Tenant
shall notify Landlord of its final approval or disapproval of the Change Order within two (2)
business days after Landlord delivers to Tenant the applicable Change Order Notice (Change Order
Response Period). If Tenant fails to timely notify Landlord of its approval or disapproval of any
proposed Change Order, Tenant shall be deemed to have automatically disapproved that particular
Change Order and Landlord shall not proceed to implement any of the changes specified therein. If
Tenant timely notifies Landlord of its approval of the Change Order, then, within three (3)
business days after the expiration of the applicable Change Order Response Period, Tenant shall pay
Landlord amount of any increase in the Work Cost (as set forth in the applicable Change Order
Notice) in accordance with Paragraph 4of this Work Letter; and upon receipt of such payment,
Landlord shall implement the changes specified in the Change Order. In such event, however, any
delay in the Scheduled Commencement Date resulting solely from the change described in the relevant
Change Order shall be deemed a Delay Event (defined below). 3. Substitutions. From time to time after the date of the Lease, Landlord may notify
Tenant of any proposed substitutions (Substitutions) in the materials or designs described in the
Final Plans that Landlord determines are reasonably necessary to avoid delays in the Scheduled
Commencement Date (a Substitution Notice). The Substitutions shall be of substantially the same
character and quality as those described in the Final Plans. Any Substitution Notice shall
describe in reasonable detail: (i) the nature of the Substitutions, (ii) any estimated increase in
the Work Cost, if Tenant approves the Substitutions, and (iii) any estimated delay in the Scheduled
Commencement Date if Tenant disapproves the Substitutions. Tenant shall notify Landlord of its
approval or disapproval of the Substitutions within three (3) business days after Landlord delivers
the relevant Substitution Notice to Tenant (Substitution Response Period). If Tenant fails
timely to notify Landlord of its approval or disapproval, Tenant shall 27




---



##### 



be deemed to have automatically disapproved the Substitutions described in the relevant
Substitution Notice. If Tenant disapproves or is deemed to have disapproved the Substitutions,
Landlord shall not implement the Substitutions and any delay in the Scheduled Commencement Date
resulting therefrom shall be deemed a Delay Event. 4. Payment of Cost of Changes. As provided above, Tenant shall be responsible for the
payment of any increase in the Work Cost resulting from an approved Change Order or Substitution.
Tenants failure to timely make any payment of such increase in Work Cost, as required pursuant to
Paragraphs 2and 3above, within three (3) days after Landlords delivery of written demand
therefor, shall automatically be deemed an Event of Default and, in addition to any other remedies
Landlord may have on account of such Event of Default, Landlord may immediately suspend Work and in
such event, Landlord shall not be responsible for any delay in the Scheduled Commencement Date. 5. Substantial Completion Date and Punch List Items. The Architect shall determine the
date on which the construction and installation of the Landlord Improvements are substantially
completed in substantial accordance with the Final Plans, as such Final Plans may be modified by
any Change Orders and Substitutions (Substantial Completion Date). The Architect shall certify
to Landlord and Tenant, in writing, the Substantial Completion Date (Substantial Completion
Notice). The Commencement Date shall be the date that is five (5) days after the date on which
the Architect delivers the Substantial Completion Notice. Within five (5) days after the Architect
delivers the Substantial Completion Notice, the parties shall inspect the Premises to determine
those items, if any, that Landlord and Tenant determine to be unfinished, or improperly completed,
but which do not materially impair Tenants use or occupancy of the Premises (the Punch List
Items). Tenant shall be entitled to supplement the Punch List for a period of fifteen (15) days
thereafter. The Punch List shall set forth a time mutually acceptable to the parties by which each
item on the Punch List shall be completed or corrected. If the parties are unable to mutually
agree on a time, the correction or completion period shall be thirty (30) days, unless such item is
not reasonably susceptible of being corrected or completed within such time. If any Punch List Item
is not completed or corrected within the time specified on the Punch List, then Landlord shall
continue to be obligated to complete that item, but Tenant shall be entitled to complete or correct
any such Punch List Item at any time following seven (7) days written notice to Landlord unless
Landlord disputes Tenants claim that a Punch List Item is incomplete or improperly completed, in
which case Tenant shall defer such self-help for a reasonable period while Landlord and Tenant
attempt to resolve the dispute over whether a Punch List Item is incomplete or improperly
completed. If Tenant corrects or completes an item on the Punch List, Landlord shall reimburse
Tenant for the reasonable costs of completion or correction within twenty (20) days following a
written demand by Tenant accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation. Whether or not Tenant
exercises its right of self help, Landlord shall remain responsible for the prompt
completion/correction of all Punch List Items in connection with the Landlord Improvement work to
be performed by Landlord under this Lease. At Landlords request from time to time, Tenant will furnish Landlord with written statements
acknowledging the completion of the Punch List Items. Any disputes as to the nature or existence
of any Punch List Item or as to the substantial completion of the Landlord Improvements shall be
resolved by reasonable and joint decision of the Architect and a duly licensed Illinois architect
selected by Tenant. 6. Delay. 6.1. Delay Events: The Scheduled Commencement Date may be delayed from time to
time due to any or all of the following events (collectively, Delay Events) : 6.1.1. Change Orders requested or approved by Tenant and approved by Landlord
in which Landlord identifies that the change that is the subject of the Change Order
will result in a delay, but not beyond the delay indicated thereon; 6.1.2. Tenants failure timely to pay any increase in Work Costs resulting from
an approved Change Order or Substitution and as required under Paragraphs 2 and 3
above. Any act of Tenant or its agents, employees or contractors that wrongfully
interferes with the Work; 28

##### 



6.1.3. Any delay due to, or in connection with, materials specified by Tenant
to be procured from a particular source, including, without limitation, any delivery
delays or delays relating to the quality or other characteristics of such materials; 6.1.4. Any delay of any applicable governmental authority to issue appropriate
permits for construction of the Landlord Improvements and a certificate of occupancy
(or comparable certification) for the Premises upon substantial completion of the
Landlord Improvements; and 6.1.5. A matter arising or occurring under Section 17.3of the Lease. 7. Limit on Landlords Liability. Without limitation of Landlords limitation of
liability set forth in the Lease, Landlord shall not be liable for any damage caused to Tenant due
to a delay, whether as a result of a Delay Event or otherwise, in the delivery of possession of the
Premises to Tenant. 29

    Tenant shall exercise its right to extend the term of this Lease for the aforesaid
Renewal Terms by notifying Landlord, in writing, of its election to exercise the right to
renew and extend the term of this Lease at least nine (9) months prior to expiration of the
applicable Renewal Terms.d)
    If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon Fair Market Value within forty five
(45) days after Tenants exercise of its option to extend the Term, each party shall
designate a commercial appraiser with MAI within five (5) business days thereafter, and the
two appraisers so selected shall mutually designate a third appraiser within five (5)
business days after both of such appraisers have been designated by the parties. The three
(3) appraisers shall then determine the Fair Market Value for the Leased Premises within
thirty (30) days following designation of the third appraiser. If the three (3) appraisers
are unable to agree upon Fair Market Value, the determinations of the two appraisers whose
determinations of Fair Market Rent are closest together shall be averaged, and the
determination of the third appraiser shall be disregarded. 38

EXHIBIT H RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER TO LEASE:Landlord hereby covenants and agrees that Tenant shall have a
Right of First Opportunity to lease any space that is contiguous to the Premises initially leased
to Tenant, under and as of the date of this Lease and that becomes available during the Term of the
Lease (an Additional Space). Such Right of First Opportunity is granted on and subject to the
following terms and conditions:  1.
    If, when and as (a) Landlord becomes aware that an Additional Space will become available for
lease to a third party, and (b) Landlord is prepared to deliver to a potential third party
tenant a proposal to lease such Additional Space, Landlord shall promptly notify Tenant, in
writing (an ROFO Notice). Tenant shall then have the right to lease the Additional Space
if, when and as the same becomes available, and on the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth.2.
    The ROFO Notice shall describe the economic and other relevant terms and conditions upon
which Landlord is prepared to lease the Additional Space to a third party tenant (the ROFO
Terms), including, but not limited to, the term for which the Available Space is to be
leased; the commencement date of that lease term; the per annum, per square foot base rent
proposed to be charged by Landlord for the Additional Space (the Rental Rate); and all (if
any) monetary concessions that Landlord is prepared to offer to such third party in
consideration of its lease of the Additional Space.3.
    Upon Landlords delivery of the ROFO Notice, Tenant shall have five (5) business days (ROFO
Response Period) in which to advise Landlord, in writing (the ROFO Response), whether or
not Tenant desires to exercise its Right of First Opportunity and lease all (but not some
portion) of the Additional Space on all of the ROFO Terms, except as otherwise specifically
provided below in this Lease Exhibit F, Section G.4.
    If Tenant fails to timely deliver an ROFO Response (or, if Tenant timely delivers the ROFO
Response, but declines to lease all of the Additional Space on the ROFO Terms), then Tenant
shall automatically be deemed to have irrevocably waived its Right of First Opportunity with
respect to its opportunity to lease that particular Additional Space pursuant to the
particular ROFO Terms set forth in the then-applicable ROFO Notice. In that event, Landlord
shall be free to lease the then-applicable Additional Space to one or more third party tenants
(an ROFO Lease) on substantially the same or better (from Landlords perspective) terms as
are set forth in the ROFO Notice previously delivered to Tenant.5.
    If Tenant timely delivers an ROFO Response and advises Landlord of its desire to lease the
entirety of the Additional Space on the ROFO Terms set forth in the applicable ROFO Notice,
then, within ten (10) business days of Tenants delivery of the ROFO Response to Landlord,
Landlord and Tenant shall execute and enter into an amendment to this Lease, pursuant to which
amendment Tenant shall lease the Additional Space on all of the terms, conditions and
limitations set forth in this Lease, except that (i) the annual Base Rent for the Additional
Space shall be the product of (x) the Rental Rate and (y) the number of rentable square feet
comprising the Additional Space; (ii) Tenants Proportionate Share shall be appropriately
adjusted (increased) to account for the additional square footage comprising the Additional
Space; (iii) the definition of the Premises shall be amended to include the Additional Space;
and (iv) the Term of this Lease shall remain unchanged with respect to the Premises initially
leased hereunder and the Term applicable to the Additional Space shall be co-terminus with the
Term for the Premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease or in
the ROFO Notice, if Tenant timely delivers an ROFO Response, Tenant shall be obligated to
lease the entirety of that Additional Space on a strictly as-is, where-is basis, without
any tenant improvements, alterations, modifications, representations or warranties of any
nature whatsoever from Landlord. 39

6.
    In the event that (a) Landlord delivers an ROFO Notice, but Tenant fails to timely deliver an
ROFO Response; and (b) therefore, Landlord has the right to, and does, actively pursue the
negotiation of the terms and conditions of a ROFO Lease, but in the course of such pursuit,
Landlord desires to modify or amend any of the ROFO Terms in any material respect, then
Landlord may not finalize the terms and conditions of, execute, and enter into an ROFO Lease,
based on and incorporating a material change in the ROFO Terms, without once again first
delivering a revised ROFO Notice to Tenant, reflecting the then-applicable ROFO Terms,
whereupon the provisions of Paragraphs 3 through 5 above shall once again apply. For purposes
of this Paragraph 6, a modification of the Rental Rate originally included in the ROFO Terms
shall be deemed material if that Rental Rate is reduced by more than ten percent (10%) of the
Rental Rate originally offered to Tenant.7.
    Tenant specifically acknowledges and agrees that its Right of First Opportunity shall not
apply to the renewal or extension of any existing lease (as of the date of this Lease) in the
Building, whether pursuant to a renewal right or otherwise, nor shall the Right of First
Opportunity apply with respect to any expansion of space, or relocation to alternative space,
by an existing tenant (as of the date of this Lease) in the Building.8.
    Tenant shall have no right to exercise (or to preserve the prior exercise of) the Right of
First Opportunity if and to the extent that Tenant is in default under the Lease past the
expiration of applicable cure periods at either or both of (a) the date Landlord would
otherwise be obligated to deliver an ROFO Notice; and (b) at any time thereafter prior to the
applicable commencement date for the lease of the Additional Space (after timely delivery of
an ROFO Response by Tenant). In the event of such a default by Tenant, Tenant shall be deemed
to have irrevocably waived its Right of First Opportunity during the period of time that any
such default remains uncured; therefore, (a) during a period of default, Landlord shall have
no obligation to deliver a ROFO Notice; and (b) if Landlord delivers an ROFO Notice, and
Tenant timely delivers an ROFO Response, advising of Tenants election to lease the
then-applicable Additional Space, but Tenant then defaults after its delivery of the ROFO
Response, then such ROFO Response shall immediately be automatically and irrevocably rendered
null and void, whereupon Landlord shall be free to lease the then-applicable Additional Space
to any party Landlord desires, and on whatever terms Landlord deems appropriate.9.
    The Right of First Opportunity is personal to Tenant, except that if Tenant assigns all (but
not some portion) of its interest under this Lease, such assignee shall be entitled to the
benefits of this Right of First Opportunity. If Tenant subleases any portion of the Premises
or assigns or otherwise transfers some (but not all) of Tenants interest under the Lease to
any other person or entity, whether or not pursuant to, and in accordance with, the
requirements of this Lease, no sublessee, assignee or transferee shall have, or be entitled
to, any of the rights or benefits of the Right of First Opportunity.10.
    The Right of First Opportunity created hereby is granted to Tenant only for the Initial Term.
The Right of First Opportunity created hereby shall be null and void as of the expiration of
the Initial Term. 40
