AGREEMENT OF LEASE




	
      1.
        Parties.

    	
      

    





This Agreement of Lease (the “Lease”) is made this 19th day of April, 2005, by and between FV OFFICE PARTNERS, L.P., a limited partnership organized and existing under the laws of Delaware, whose address is Suite 125, 955 Chesterbrook Boulevard, Chesterbrook, PA 19087 (hereafter called “Landlord”), and MEDECISION, INC., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania whose office address as of the date of this Lease is 601 Lee Road, Chesterbrook, PA 19087 (hereinafter referred to as “Tenant”).

It is hereby agreed by and between Landlord and Tenant, intending to be legally bound, for themselves and for their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, in the manner following, it being understood that the Premises (as hereinafter defined) are demised under and subject to the following covenants, all of which are also to be regarded as strict legal conditions:




	
      2.
        Demise.

    	
      

    





Landlord does hereby lease and demise to Tenant and Tenant does hereby hire and take from Landlord, for the term and subject to the provisions hereof, the premises (the “Premises”) shown cross-hatched on the floor plan(s) (collectively, the “Floor Plans”) attached hereto as Exhibit “A,” known as Suite 200 and constituting in its entirety the second floor of the building known as 620 Lee Road, Chesterbrook Corporate Center®, Chesterbrook, PA 19087 (hereinafter referred to as the “Building”), occupying the parcel of land bounded as described on Exhibit “B” attached hereto (the “Land”). The Building and Land are sometimes collectively referred to in this Lease as the “Property”. Landlord represents that the Premises contains 14,663 rentable square feet and the Building contains 28,300 rentable square feet as measured
according to the currently effective BOMA standard and there are 105 striped vehicular parking spaces on the Land of which 5 are handicapped accessible striped spaces (collectively, the “Current Parking Configuration”).




	
      3.
        Term.

    	
      

    





(a) This demise shall be for the term (hereinafter referred to as “the Term”) beginning on the “Commencement Date” of the Term as defined in Article 3(b) of this Lease and ending, without the necessity of notice from either party to the other on August 31, 2016, subject, however, to Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease set forth in Article 43 below. The date upon which the term expires is hereinafter referred to as the “Expiration Date”.

(b) The Term shall commence on the date which is the earlier to occur of: (i) June 1, 2005; or (ii) the date on which a certificate of occupancy for the Premises is issued by Tredyffrin Township (the “Commencement Date”).

(c) When the Commencement Date is established, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly execute and acknowledge a memorandum, the form attached hereto as Exhibit “C” of the Commencement Date and the Expiration Date. 







(d)
  If the Tenant or any person claiming through the Tenant shall have continued
  to occupy the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term
  or any renewal thereof, and if the Landlord shall have consented in writing
  to such continuation of occupancy, such occupancy (unless the parties hereto
  shall have otherwise agreed in writing) shall be deemed to be under a month-to-month
  tenancy. The month-to-month tenancy shall continue until either party shall
  have notified the other in writing, at least thirty (30) days prior to the end
  of any calendar month, that the party giving such notice elects to terminate
  the month-to-month tenancy at the end of that calendar month, in which event,
  such tenancy shall so terminate. If such occupancy (the “Holdover Occupancy”)
  shall have continued without Landlord’s written consent, then such occupancy
  shall be in violation of this Lease, in which event, Tenant (i) shall be liable
  for any and all losses, claims, costs, expenses and damages suffered or incurred
  by Landlord (including, without limit thereto, court costs and counsel fee),
  whether direct or consequential, whether foreseen or unforeseen as a result
  of such continued occupancy, and Landlord shall have all of the rights and remedies
  available under this Lease, or at law or in equity, for such violation and,
  without limitation of the foregoing clause (i), (ii) will indemnify and hold
  harmless Landlord from and against all claims and demands made by succeeding
  tenants against Landlord, founded upon delay by Landlord in delivering possession
  of the Premises or portions thereof to such succeeding tenant(s). The rental
  payable with respect to each monthly period of any month-to-month tenancy (and
  to each monthly period of continued occupancy which may occur without Landlord’s
  consent) shall equal one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the monthly payment
  of Fixed Rent due for the month immediately preceding the beginning of the Holdover
  Occupancy. Any month-to-month tenancy arising with Landlord’s consent shall
  be upon the same terms and subject to the same conditions as those which are
  set forth in this Lease, except as otherwise set forth in this subparagraph
  (d), provided that if the Landlord shall have given to the Tenant, at least
  thirty (30) days prior to: (1) the expiration of the Term; or (2) the earlier
  termination of the Term; or (3) any extension of the Term; or (4) the end of
  any month of a month-to-month tenancy, written notice that the Tenant’s
  occupancy following such month or expiration or termination (as the case may
  be) shall be subject to such modifications of the terms and conditions of this
  Lease (including any provision relating to the amount and payment of rent) as
  are specified in such notice, the Tenant’s occupancy following such month
  or expiration or termination (as the case may be) shall be subject to the provisions
  of this Lease as so modified.

	
      4.
        Fixed Rent; Tenant Energy Costs; Annual Operating Costs; Lease Taxes.

    	

      

    





(a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord as rent under this Lease the aggregate of: (i)  Fixed Rent (as defined in Article 4(b) of this Lease);

(i) Tenant’s proportionate share of Tenant Energy Costs (as defined in Articles 4(c) and Article 4(d) of this Lease);

(ii) Tenant’s proportionate share of increases in Annual Operating Costs (as defined in Articles 4(c) and 4(e) of this Lease) over Base Operating Costs (as defined in Article 4(e)(i)(C) of this Lease) which sum shall be due and payable as set forth in Article 4(e) of this Lease; and 

-2-





(iii) All other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Lease.

(b) Fixed Rent.

(i) The minimum fixed annual rent (the “Fixed Rent”) due each lease year of the Term of the Lease shall be payable in equal monthly installments in advance and without prior demand, notice, set-off or deduction except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in the Lease on the first day of each and every month during the Term in accordance with the following schedule:

The term “Annual Operating Costs” shall not include: any income, inheritance, excess profits, capital stock or franchise taxes of Landlord or any interest or penalties resulting from late payment of taxes, depreciation on the Building or equipment; interest on mortgage encumbrances; ground rents; income taxes; salaries of executive officers of Landlord; the cost of correcting defects in the construction of the Building or Property; the cost of any repairs, alterations, additions, changes, replacements, and

The prime rate as such term is utilized in this Lease shall mean the rate of
interest per annum announced from time to time by Wachovia Bank or its successor as its prime lending rate (or if such prime lending rate is discontinued, such comparable rate as Landlord reasonably designates by notice to Tenant).

-5-





(ii) If Landlord shall have purchased any item of capital equipment or shall have made any capital expenditure that results in savings or reductions in Annual Operating Costs or Tenant Energy Costs applicable to leased space in the Building, then the costs of having purchased such equipment and such capital expenditures shall be included in Annual Operating Costs for the calendar year in which the costs shall have been incurred and subsequent calendar years, on a straight line basis, to the extent that such items are amortized over such period of time as reasonably can be estimated as the time in which such savings or reductions in Annual Operating Costs are expected to equal Landlord’s costs for such capital equipment or capital expenditure, with an interest factor equal to the prime rate at the time of Landlord’s having incurred said costs provided, however, in no event may the
amount of such costs included in Annual Operating Expenses exceed the amount of actual annual savings resulting therefrom. If Landlord shall have leased any such items of capital equipment designed to result in savings or reductions in Annual Operating Costs, then the rental and other costs paid pursuant to such leasing shall be included in Annual Operating Costs for the calendar year in which they shall have been incurred.

(iii) The term “Base Operating Costs” shall mean the sum of $ 169,800.

(iv) For and with respect to each calendar year of the Term (and any renewals or extensions thereof) excluding, however, the first calendar year during which the Term of this Lease shall have commenced, there shall accrue as additional rent hereunder, and be paid within thirty (30) days after Landlord shall have given to Tenant a statement or statements of the amount due, Tenant’s proportionate share of the increase, if any, of Annual Operating Costs over Base Operating Costs.

(f) Partial Year. If only part of any calendar year shall fall within the Term, the amount computed as additional rent with respect to such calendar year under the provisions of subsection (c) of this Article shall be prorated in proportion to the portion of such calendar year falling within the Term (but the expiration or termination of the Term prior to the end of such calendar year shall not impair the Tenant’s obligation under this Lease to pay such prorated portion of such additional rent with respect to that portion of such year falling within the Term, which shall be paid on demand, as aforesaid).

-6-





(g) Payment of Estimated Increase. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, the Landlord shall be entitled to make from time to time during the Term, a reasonable estimate of the amount of additional rent which may become due under this Lease with respect to any calendar year and to require the Tenant to pay to the Landlord, at the time and in the manner in which the Tenant is required under this Lease to pay the monthly installment of the Fixed Rent with respect to such month, with respect to each calendar month during any such calendar year, one-twelfth (1/12) of the amount which Landlord shall have estimated will become payable on account of increases in Annual Operating Costs. In such event, Landlord shall cause the actual amount of the additional rent to be computed and a statement thereof sent to the Tenant within one
hundred twenty (120) days following the end of the calendar year; the Tenant or the Landlord, as the case may be, shall, within thirty (30) days after such statement is sent to Tenant, pay to the other the amount of any deficiency or overpayment, respectively, therein.



	
      (h) Disputes/Audit
        Rights.

    




(i) Any statement furnished to Tenant by Landlord under the preceding paragraph or other provisions of this Article shall constitute a final determination as between Landlord and Tenant of the additional rent due from Tenant for the period represented thereby unless Tenant, within one hundred twenty (120) days after a statement is furnished, shall have given a notice to Landlord that Tenant disputes the correctness of the statement, specifying in detail the basis for such assertion. Pending resolution of such a dispute, Tenant shall pay the additional rent in accordance with the statement furnished by Landlord.

(ii) Within one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of Landlord’s statement seeking payment of Tenant’s proportionate share of increases in Annual Operating Costs and/or Tenant proportionate share of Tenant Energy Costs, Tenant or its staff employees or an independent certified public accountant shall have the right upon at least five (5) days’ notice to Landlord, at any time during regular business hours, at Landlord’s offices at the address set forth in the heading of this Lease, to audit and review Landlord’s records relating to Base Operating Costs and ‘Annual Operating Costs and/or Tenant Energy Costs for the period covered by such Landlord statement. If after such inspection, and audit, Tenant disagrees with Landlord’s calculation of additional rent, Tenant shall so advise Landlord in writing and shall specify
the reasons for such disagreement. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to resolve such disagreement within sixty (60) day of Landlord’s receipt of such notice, then Landlord and Tenant shall select a mutually agreeable third party, either an accountant, consultant or real estate professional (the “Expert”), who will review all information supplied to Tenant in connection with said disputed item(s) and determine the amount of the overpayment, if any. The findings of such Expert shall be binding on both parties and not subject to appeal. If the Expert determines that Tenant has overpaid Tenant’s proportionate share of increases in Annual Operating Costs or Tenant’s proportionate share of Tenant Energy Costs. Landlord shall refund said overpayment to Tenant within thirty (30) days from the date of the Expert’s findings and shall promptly adjust Tenant’s estimated payments of Annual Operating Costs if necessary.

-7-












(iii) Except as set forth in the next succeeding sentence, Landlord and Tenant shall each be responsible for one-half the costs and expenses of any Expert agreed to as aforesaid. If the Expert determines that Tenant’s proportionate share of increases in Annual Operating Costs or Tenant’s proportionate share of Tenant Energy Costs was overstated by five percent (5%) or more, then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for all of Tenant’s reasonable expenses and fees incurred for the audit at the time such overpayment is returned to Tenant and Landlord shall be responsible for all of the costs and expenses of any Expert agreed to as aforesaid. Landlord’s obligation to reimburse Tenant for such audit costs shall not exceed the average amount which would be paid to anyone of the “big 4” national accounting firms (a “Big 4 Firm”) operating in the United States.
Tenant may engage only a national reputable auditing firm to conduct the above described audit at a fee which would not be calculated in whole or in part on savings to be realized by Tenant.

(iv) All of the information obtained through Tenant’s inspection with respect to financial matters (including, without limitation, costs, expenses, income), as well as any compromise, settlement, or adjustment reached between Landlord and Tenant relative to the results of the inspection shall be held in confidence by Tenant and its officers, agents, and employees and, except as may be required by applicable law or in connection with any court proceeding, arbitration, mediation or other proceeding where such information is relevant, shall not be divulged to any other person, firm, corporation, business organization, consultant, entity or occupant or tenant of Chesterbrook Corporate Center® or Glenhardie Corporate Center® at any time; and Tenant shall cause its accountant or consultant and any of its officers, agents and employees to be similarly bound.

(v) As a condition precedent to Tenant’s exercise of its rights to audit under this Article 4 (h), Tenant must deliver to Landlord a signed agreement from Tenant’s representatives who will perform such audit acknowledging that all of the results of such audit as well as any compromise, settlement, or adjustment reached by Landlord and Tenant shall be held in strict confidence and not be revealed in any manner to any person except (A) with the prior written consent of Landlord, (B) as may be required by applicable law or in connection with any court proceeding, arbitration, mediation or other proceeding where such information is relevant, and (C) to accountants and other persons who prepare or otherwise deal with the financial statements of Tenant

(vi)
  Lease Tax. If federal, state or local law now or hereafter imposes any tax,
  assessment, levy or other charge (other than any income tax) directly or indirectly
  upon the Landlord with respect to this Lease or the value thereof, or upon the
  Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, or upon the rent, additional
  rent or any other sums payable under this Lease or upon this transaction, except
  if and to the extent that the same are included in the Annual Operating Costs
  (all of which are herein called “Lease Taxes”) the Tenant shall pay
  to the Landlord, as additional rent hereunder and upon demand, the amount of
  such tax, assessment, levy or other charge, unless the Tenant shall be prohibited
  by law from paying such tax, assessment levy or other charge, in which event
  the Landlord shall be entitled, at its election, to terminate this Lease by
  written notice to the Tenant.

      5.
        Covenant to Pay Rent and Additional Rent; Late Charge.

    





Tenant shall, without prior demand, notice, setoff or deduction (except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in this Lease), pay the Fixed Rent and all other sums which may become due by Tenant under this Lease, at the times, at the places and in the manner provided in this Lease. All such other sums shall be payable as additional rent for all purposes whether or not they would otherwise be considered rent. If any payment or any part thereof to be made by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease shall have become overdue for a period in excess often (10) days, a late charge of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) may be charged by Landlord for the purpose of defraying the expense incident to handling such delinquent payment, together with interest from the date when such payment or part thereof was due at the Lease Interest Rate (defined below) or such lesser amount or rate,
if any, as represents the maximum amount or rate Landlord lawfully may charge in respect of Tenant in such circumstances. Nothing herein shall be construed as waiving any rights of Landlord arising out of any defaults of Tenant by reason of Landlord’s assessing or accepting any such late payment, the late charge and interest provided herein is separate and apart from any rights relating to remedies of the Landlord after default by Tenant in the performance or observance of the terms of this Lease. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Tenant shall be in default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to do so), in addition to any other rights it may have in law or equity, cure such default on behalf of Tenant and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any sums paid or costs incurred by Landlord in curing such default, including interest thereon at the Lease Interest Rate or such lesser rate as
represents the maximum rate Landlord lawfully may charge in respect of Tenant in such circumstances, reasonable attorney’s fees and other legal expenses, including also the said late charge and interest on all sums paid and costs incurred by Landlord as aforesaid, which sums and costs together with late charge and interest thereon shall be deemed additional rent hereunder. As used in this Lease, the “Lease Interest Rate” shall mean two percent (2%) plus the prime rate.




	
      6.
        Use.

    





The Premises are to be used only by Tenant for general office purposes and for no other purpose. Tenant shall not use or occupy the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the Premises or any part thereof to be used or occupied, other than as specified in the sentence immediately preceding. Tenant shall permit its employees, invitees and guests to park only automobiles, or similarly sized vehicles such as non-commercial trucks (no longer than a twelve-passenger van) or sport utility vehicles (but not recreational vehicles), on the Property. Tenant may park other types of vehicles at the Property with the prior consent of Landlord which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such parking shall be unreserved.

      7.
        Assignment and Subletting.

    





(a) The Tenant shall not mortgage, pledge or encumber this Lease. The Tenant shall not assign this Lease or sublet or underlet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit any other person or entity to occupy the Premises or any part thereof, without on each occasion first obtaining the written consent thereto of the Landlord which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. An assignment within the meaning of this Lease is intended to comprehend not only the voluntary action of Tenant, but also any levy or sale on execution or other legal process against Tenant’s goods or other property of the leasehold, and every assignment of assets for the benefit of creditors, and the filing of any petition or order or any adjudication in bankruptcy or under any insolvency, reorganization or other voluntary or compulsory procedure, and the filing by or against Tenant of any petition or notice for a
composition with creditors, and any assignment by operation of law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following transfers are not subject to Landlord’s consent: (i) transfers of interests in Tenant among existing shareholders; and (ii) a transaction pursuant to which Tenant becomes a “reporting company” under federal securities laws and any subsequent transactions in Tenant’s capital stock as long as such a subsequent transaction does not constitute a Tenant Transfer (as hereinafter defined) in which event Article 7 (b) of this Lease shall govern; or (iii) a sale of less than substantially all of Tenant’s capital stock.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 7(a) above, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof without Landlord’s consent to any entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant or to any corporation or other entity resulting from a merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the assets or capital stock of Tenant or to any person or entity which acquires all of the assets of Tenant’s business as a going concern (each such event a “Tenant Transfer”) provided that (i) Tenant is not then in default under this Lease; (ii) concurrently with such assignment or sublease Tenant delivers to Landlord written notice of same; (iii) in the case of a Tenant Transfer Landlord receives such background information reasonably satisfactory to Landlord concerning the nature of and the identity of the
participants in the transaction and the financial condition of all surviving entities; (iv) in case of an assignment the assignee assumes, in full, the obligations of Tenant under this Lease; (v) Tenant remains fully liable under this Lease; and (vi) there is no change in the use of the Premises. All assumption documentation provided to Landlord and/or consent to sublease documentation requested of Landlord pursuant to the terms and conditions of this subparagraph (b) must be reasonably satisfactory to Landlord as to both form and substance.

(c) If Tenant proposes to assign this Lease or sublet all or any portion of the Premises in a manner which requires Landlord’s consent under this Lease, Tenant shall, prior to the proposed effective date thereof (the “Effective Date”), deliver to Landlord a copy of the proposed agreement and all ancillary agreements with the proposed assignee or subtenant, as applicable. Landlord shall then have all the following rights, any of which Landlord may exercise by written notice to Tenant given within twenty (20) days after Landlord receives the foregoing documents:

(i) With respect to a proposed assignment of this Lease, the right to terminate this Lease on the Effective Date as if it were the scheduled expiration date of the Term (the “Expiration Date”);

(ii) With respect to a proposed subletting of the entire Premises, the right to terminate this Lease on the Effective Date as if it were the Expiration Date;

-10-





(iii) With respect to a proposed subletting of less than the entire Premises, the right to terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Premises affected by such subletting on the Effective Date, as if it were the Expiration Date, in which case Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver to Landlord an appropriate modification of this Lease in form satisfactory to Landlord in all respects; or Landlord may consent to the proposed assignment or sublease on such terms and conditions as Landlord may reasonably require, including without limitation, the execution and delivery to Landlord by the assignee of an assumption of liability agreement in form satisfactory to Landlord, including an assumption by the assignee of all of the obligations of Tenant and the assignee’s ratification of an agreement to be bound by all of the provisions of this Lease, including the warrant of attorney to
confess judgment in ejectment; or, in the case of a sublease, the execution and delivery by the subtenant of a written agreement with Landlord, in such form and with such terms, covenants and conditions as may be required by Landlord; or Landlord will consent to the proposed assignment or sublease, so long as the identity, reputation and financial strength of the proposed assignee or subtenant, and the proposed use of the Premises, are reasonably acceptable to Landlord; provided further, however, that Landlord shall in no event be required to consent to any assignment or subletting to a proposed assignee or subtenant that is (w) a government or any subdivision, agency or instrumentality thereof, (x) a school, college, university or educational institution of any type (whether for profit or non-profit) [other than the executive office of such an institution having no student areas], (y) an employment, recruitment or temporary help, service or agency (other than the executive office of
such a company) or (z) another tenant of Landlord in the Chesterbrook Corporate Center® or Glenhardie Corporate Center®.

(iv) In the event that Landlord does consent to the assignment or subletting, Tenant shall have ninety (90) days from its receipt of Landlord’s notice thereof to enter into the proposed sublease or assignment with the prospective subtenant or assignee described in Tenant’s notice to Landlord. If such sublease or assignment has not been executed within such time period and with such identified assignee or subtenant, the consent given by Landlord shall be considered to have been withdrawn.

(v) In the event that Landlord shall indicate to Tenant that it wishes to exercise any of the options set forth in subsections (i), (ii) or (iii) of Article 7 (c) above in such event Tenant shall have the right to withdraw its proposed assignment or subletting transaction upon notice to Landlord if given within ten (10) days after Landlord’s notice to Tenant in which event the proposed assignment or subletting shall be of no force or effect.

(d) No assignment or sublease, whether with or without the Landlord’s consent, shall in any way relieve or release the Tenant from liability for the performance of all terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease.

(e) In the event of any sublease or assignment by Tenant of its interest in the Premises or this Lease or any portion thereof, whether or not consented to by Landlord but excluding assignments or subleases resulting from a Tenant Transfer, each monthly installment of Fixed Rent payable hereunder with respect to the Premises or the portion thereof subject to such subletting or assignment shall be increased by an amount equal to (i) in the case of any subletting, the Excess Rent (defined below) for such portion; and, in the case of any assignment, the Excess Rent payable by the assignee as amortized on a monthly basis over the remaining Term of this Lease with interest at the Lease Interest Rate. As used herein, “Excess Rent” shall mean a sum equal to fifty percent (50%) of the amount by which the rent and other charges or other consideration paid by Tenant by any subtenant or
assignee exceeds the pro rata portion, for each month of such subletting or assignment, of the Fixed Rent and additional rent for such space then payable for such month by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Lease in the absence of this subsection (e), less the portion applicable to such month, when amortized from the dates incurred over the remaining term of the sublease or assignment, of Tenant’s cost of improvements made or paid for by Tenant to satisfy the needs of the subtenant, and legal fees, leasing commissions and similar capital costs incurred by Tenant in connection with the assignment or subletting.

-11-





(f) If, pursuant to the exercise of the Landlord’s option in 7(c)(iii) above, this Lease terminates as to only a portion of the Premises, the Fixed Rent and Tenant’s proportionate share for the additional rent shall be adjusted in proportion to the portion of the Premises affected by such termination, as determined by Landlord; and Tenant, within ten (10) days after demand, shall pay to Landlord Landlord’s actual and reasonable out-of-pocket cost of any alterations necessary to separate such portion of the Premises from the remainder of the Premises.

(g) If Landlord exercises any of its options under section 7(c)(i), (ii) or (iii), Landlord may then lease the Premises or any portion thereof to Tenant’s proposed assignee or subtenant, as the case may be, without liability whatsoever to Tenant.

(h) In addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to Landlord therefor, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease if Tenant seeks to assign, or underlet the Premises without first obtaining Landlord’s written consent. In the event that Landlord exercises said right to terminate, said termination shall become effective on the date set forth in Landlord’s written notice.




	
      8.

(a) Landlord’s Preliminary Plans. Landlord has heretofore delivered to Tenant for use by Tenant and/or its architect or engineer, an architectural floor plan with respect to the Premises, a copy of which is attached to this lease as Exhibit “D,” and such structural, electrical and mechanical plans and specifications with respect to the Premises as Tenant may reasonably require for proper and expeditious preparation of the plans and specifications to be furnished by Tenant as hereinafter provided. The receipt of all such information is hereby acknowledged by Tenant.

(b) Tenant’s Plans. Tenant shall have prepared, not later than the times set forth in Paragraph C of Exhibit “E” hereto, and shall deliver to Landlord for its approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) one mylar and two blackline prints of the complete and final descriptive information and drawings described in Paragraph D of Exhibit “E” hereto and three (3) copies of the specifications, prepared by such space planner (“Tenant’s Layout Plans”) for the construction and finishing of the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article 11, (a) if any damage is caused by or results from the negligence of Tenant, those claiming under Tenant, or their employees or invitees, respectively, rent shall not be
suspended or apportioned and Tenant shall pay, as additional rent upon demand, the cost of any repairs, made or to be made, of such damage and of any restorations, made or to be made, as a result of such damage, (b) Landlord shall have a duty to repair and replace Tenant Work at Landlord’s sole cost but shall have no duty to repair or replace any personal property, or any of Tenant’s equipment or any alterations, improvements or decorations made by Tenant after the Commencement Date, or any Direct Tenant Work (c) Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for, and Tenant shall not be entitled to terminate this Lease by virtue of, any delays in completion of repairs and (d) either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon giving written notice to the other party at any time within thirty (30) days after the date of the damage if the Premises are damaged by fire or other casualty (whether or not such event constitutes a Major Casualty) during the
last six (6) months of the Term.

(a) Tenant will not do or commit any act or thing, or suffer or permit any act or thing to be done or committed, as a result of which either 

(i) any policy of insurance of any kind on or in connection with the Property shall become void or suspended, or the insurance risk on the Building or any other portion of the Property shall (in the opinion of the insuring companies) be rendered more hazardous. Tenant shall pay as additional rent the amount of any increase of premiums for such insurance, resulting from any breach of this covenant.

(b) Tenant shall maintain throughout the Term, at Tenant’s expense, insurance against loss or liability in connection with bodily injury, death, property damage and destruction, in or upon the Premises or the remainder of the Property, and arising out of the use of all or any portion of the same by Tenant or its agents, employees, officers, invitees, visitors and guests, under policies of general public liability or commercial general liability insurance having such limits as to each as may be reasonably required by Landlord from time to time, but in any event of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) per occurrence and Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) annual aggregate for the Premises alone; and, without limitation of the foregoing, within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s request, Tenant shall have such annual aggregate increased (by the same or different

Landlord shall provide Tenant upon request an ACORD certificate of insurance evidencing the insurance required to be maintained by Landlord pursuant to the terms of this subparagraph (c).


-16-





(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, each party hereto hereby releases the other party, its agents and employees to the extent of the releasing party’s actual recovery under its insurance policies, from any and all liability for any loss or damage which may be inflicted upon the property of such party, notwithstanding that such loss or damage shall have arisen out of the negligent or intentionally tortious act or omission of the other party, its agents or employees, provided, however, that this release shall be effective only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such times as the appropriate policy of insurance of the party so releasing shall contain a clause to the effect that such release shall not affect the said policy or the right of the insured to recover thereunder; each party hereto shall use reasonable efforts to have such a clause included in
its said policies.

of watts per square foot of floor area set forth in said Paragraph B; if the Premises is used in a manner exceeding the aforementioned occupancy and electric load criteria, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, promptly upon billing, Landlord’s costs of supplying air conditioning resulting from such excess, at such rates as Landlord shall establish therefor; if due to use of the Premises in a manner exceeding the aforementioned occupancy and electrical load criteria, or due to rearrangement of partitioning after the initial preparation of the Premises, interference with normal operation of the heating, ventilating or air conditioning in the Premises results, necessitating changes in the system servicing the Premises, such changes may be made by Landlord upon request by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, subject to the provisions of section (b) of this Article 16. Landlord covenants that unless Landlord so advises Tenant at the time of Landlord’s approval of the Tenant

  for longer than five (5) consecutive business days, Tenant shall have a right
  to an abatement of Fixed Rent as of the sixth (6th)

(iii) Landlord may terminate Tenant’s right of possession and may reenter and repossess the Premises by legal proceedings, force or otherwise, without terminating this Lease. After reentry or retaking or recovering of the Premises, whether by termination of this Lease or not, Landlord may, but shall be under no obligation to, make such alterations and repairs, as Landlord may deem then necessary or advisable and relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof, either in Landlord’s name or otherwise, for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option be less than or exceed the period which otherwise would have constituted the balance of the term of this Lease and at such rent or rents and upon such other terms and conditions as in Landlord’s sole discretion may seem advisable and to such person or persons as may in Landlord’s sole discretion seem best; and whether or
not the Premises is relet, Tenant shall be liable for any loss, for such period as is or would have been the balance of the term of this Lease, of rent and all other sums payable under this Lease, plus the cost and expenses of reletting and of redecorating, remodeling or making repairs and alterations to the Premises for the purpose or reletting, the amount of such liability to be computed monthly and to be paid by Tenant to Landlord from time to time upon demand. However, Landlord shall utilize commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. Tenant shall not be entitled to any rents or other sums received by Landlord in excess of those provided for in this Lease. Tenant agrees that Landlord may file suit to recover any rent and other sums falling due under the terms of this Article from time to time and that no suit or recovery of any amount due hereunder to Landlord shall be any defense to any subsequent action brought for any
other amount due hereunder to Landlord. Tenant, for Tenant and Tenant’s successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Landlord, Tenant’s and then-agent to collect the rents due or to become due under all subleases of the Premises or any parts thereof without in any way affecting Tenant’s obligation to pay any unpaid balance of rent or any other sum due or to become due hereunder. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for Tenant’s previous breach.

Whenever Landlord shall have the right to reenter the Premises, it shall have the right to remove all persons and property from the Premises and either treat such property as abandoned or at Landlord’s option store it in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant, all without service of notice or resort to legal process and without being deemed guilty of trespass, or becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby. However Landlord hereby expressly agrees to subordinate in favor of a lender of Tenant any statutory and/or contractual lien it may have or seek to claim against Tenant’s personal property located at the Building. Attached hereto as Exhibit “I” is the form of Landlord’s Subordination and Consent (the “Landlord Consent”) which Landlord shall execute and deliver to Tenant upon request in
favor of a lender of Tenant. Landlord agrees to reasonably consider modifications to the Landlord Consent requested by or on behalf of a secured party.

Tenant waives the right to any notice to remove as may be specified in the Landlord and Tenant Act of Pennsylvania, Act of April 6, 1951, as amended, or any similar or successor provision of law.

-24-





For the purposes of computing “the whole balance of rent and all other sums payable hereunder for the entire balance of the term of this Lease,” “the unpaid rent and other sums which would have become due (had this Lease not been terminated) after termination until the date of the judgment” and “the unpaid rent and other sums which would have become due (had this Lease not been terminated) for the balance of the term after the date of judgment,” as such quoted or any similar phrases are used in this Article 21, the amounts of additional rents which would have been due per year under this Lease shall be such amounts as Landlord shall reasonably estimate to be the per annum rates of additional rent for the calendar year during which this Lease was terminated or during which rent was accelerated, increasing annually on the first day of each calendar year
thereafter at the rate of four percent (4%) per annum compounded.

The parties recognize that no adequate remedy at law may exist for a breach of Articles 6, 7 and 10 hereof. Accordingly, Landlord may obtain specific performance of any provision of Articles 6, 7 and 10 hereof. Neither such right nor its exercise shall limit any other remedies which Landlord may have against Tenant for a breach of such Articles, including, without limitation, all remedies available under this Article 21. The reference herein to specific performance in connection with Articles 6, 7 and 10 shall not preclude the availability of specific performance, in any appropriate case, for the breach or threatened breach of any other provision of this Lease.

In addition to other remedies available to Landlord herein, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to do so), cure any default on behalf of Tenant, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for all costs incurred by Landlord in curing such default, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses, together with interest thereon at the Lease Interest Rate, which costs and interest thereon shall be deemed additional rent hereunder.

Also in addition to, and not in lieu of any of the foregoing rights granted to Landlord:

(A)
  WHEN THIS LEASE OR TENANT’S RIGHT OF POSSESSION
  SHALL BE TERMINATED BY COVENANT OR CONDITION BROKEN, OR FOR ANY OTHER REASON,
  EITHER DURING THE TERM OF THIS LEASE, AND ALSO WHEN AND AS SOON AS SUCH TERM
  SHALL HAVE EXPIRED OR BEEN TERMINATED, TENANT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AUTHORIZES
  AND EMPOWERS ANY ATTORNEY OR ANY COURT OF RECORD AS ATTORNEY FOR TENANT AND
  ANY PERSONS CLAIMING THROUGH OR UNDER TENANT TO CONFESS JUDGMENT IN EJECTMENT
  AGAINST TENANT AND ALL PERSONS CLAIMING THROUGH OR UNDER TENANT FOR THE RECOVERY
  BY LANDLORD OF POSSESSION OF THE PREMISES, FOR WHICH THIS LEASE SHALL BE SUFFICIENT
  WARRANT, WHEREUPON, IF LANDLORD SO DESIRES, A WRIT OF EXECUTION OR OF POSSESSION
  MAY ISSUE FORTHWITH, WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WRIT OR PROCEEDINGS WHATSOEVER, AND PROVIDED
  THAT IF FOR ANY REASON AFTER SUCH ACTION SHALL HAVE BEEN COMMENCED THE SAME
  SHALL BE DETERMINED, CANCELED OR SUSPENDED AND POSSESSION OF THE PREMISES HEREBY
  DEMISED REMAIN IN OR BE RESTORED TO TENANT OR ANY PERSON CLAIMING THROUGH OR
  UNDER TENANT, LANDLORD SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT, UPON ANY SUBSEQUENT DEFAULT OR
  DEFAULTS, OR UPON ANY SUBSEQUENT TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF THIS LEASE OR
  ANY RENEWAL OR EXTENSION HEREOF, OR OF TENANT’S RIGHT OF POSSESSION, AS
  HEREINBEFORE SET FORTH, TO CONFESS JUDGMENT IN EJECTMENT AS HEREINBEFORE SET
  FORTH ONE OR MORE ADDITIONAL TIMES TO RECOVER POSSESSION OF THE SAID PREMISES.

-25-





IN ANY ACTION OF OR FOR EJECTMENT, IF LANDLORD SHALL FIRST CAUSE TO BE FILED IN SUCH ACTION AN AFFIDAVIT MADE BY IT OR SOMEONE ACTING FOR IT SETTING FORTH THE FACTS NECESSARY TO AUTHORIZE THE ENTRY OF JUDGMENT, SUCH AFFIDAVIT SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF SUCH FACTS; AND IF A TRUE COPY OF THIS LEASE (AND OF THE TRUTH OF THE COPY SUCH AFFIDAVIT SHALL BE SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE) BE FILED IN SUCH ACTION, IT SHALL NOT BE NECESSARY TO FILE THE ORIGINAL AS A WARRANT OF ATTORNEY, ANY RULE OF COURT, CUSTOM OR PRACTICE TO THE CONTRARY NOTWITHSTANDING. TENANT RELEASES TO LANDLORD, AND TO ANY AND ALL ATTORNEYS WHO MAY APPEAR FOR TENANT, ALL PROCEDURAL ERRORS IN ANY PROCEEDINGS TAKEN BY LANDLORD, WHETHER BY VIRTUE OF THE WARRANTS OF ATTORNEY CONTAINED IN THIS LEASE OR NOT, AND ALL LIABILITY THEREFOR.

As
  used in this Article 21, the “term” shall include the Term of this
  Lease and any renewals or extensions thereof to which Tenant shall have become
  bound.

22.
  Remedies Cumulative.




All
  remedies available to Landlord under this Lease and at law and in equity shall
  be cumulative and concurrent. No termination of this Lease or taking or recovering
  possession of the Premises shall deprive Landlord of any remedies or actions
  against Tenant for rent, for charges or for damages for the breach of any covenant
  or condition herein contained, nor shall the bringing of any such action for
  rent, charges or breach of covenant or condition, nor the resort to any other
  remedy or right for the recovery of rent, charges or demands for such breach
  be construed as a waiver or release of the right to insist upon the forfeiture
  and to obtain possession. No reentering or taking possession of the Premises,
  or making of repairs, alterations or improvements thereto, or reletting thereof,
  shall be construed as an election on the part of Landlord to terminate this
  Lease unless written notice of such intention be given by Landlord to Tenant.
  The failure of Landlord to insist upon strict and/or prompt performance of the
  terms, agreements, covenants and conditions of this Lease or any of them, and/or
  the acceptance of such performance thereafter shall not constitute or be construed
  as a waiver of Landlord’s right to thereafter enforce the same strictly
  according to the tenor thereof in the event of a continuing or subsequent default.

-26-





  23.
    Landlord Default.


It
  shall constitute a default under this Lease (a “Landlord Default”)
  if Landlord fails to keep, observe or perform any of its obligations to be kept,
  observed or performed under this Lease within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s
  receipt of notice of nonperformance from Tenant; provided, however, that if
  the subject breach is not susceptible to cure within thirty (30) days, then
  within such additional time, if any, as is reasonably necessary to effectuate
  such cure, so long as Landlord has commenced such cure and diligently pursues
  same to completion; and provided further, that in the event of a breach constituting
  an emergency, Tenant shall be permitted to cure such breach immediately without
  providing Landlord notice. If Landlord fails to commence to cure such default
  within such thirty (30) day period or thereafter to diligently pursue the completion
  of such cure, then Tenant may elect (but shall not be obligated), to cure such
  default on behalf of Landlord. If Tenant elects to cure the default Landlord
  shall reimburse Tenant for the costs of such cure promptly following written
  demand therefore from Tenant provided that such demand is accompanied by reasonable
  supporting documentation concerning the nature of the costs in question. If
  such reimbursement is not provided to Tenant within thirty (30) after Landlord’s
  receipt of Tenant’s reimbursement demand Tenant may not setoff against
  rent but may pursue legal proceedings against Landlord to recover the amount
  in question. However, in the event that Tenant shall obtain a final judgment
  against Landlord concerning the amount in question and at that time Landlord’s
  equity in the Property is insufficient to satisfy the judgment Tenant shall
  be permitted to offset the amount of the judgment against rent due under this
  Lease. If the default in question by Landlord continues to persist after the
  expiration of the aforementioned thirty (30) day period (subject to extension
  as described above if the default in question can not be reasonably cured within
  thirty (30) days) and continues to remain outstanding after Landlord is given
  by Tenant a second written notice (which may be provided no earlier than thirty
  (30) days after issuance of the first described notice) then in such event Tenant
  shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon notice to Landlord if provided
  to Landlord within forty-five (45) days after the date of the above described
  second notice.

24.
  Lease Subordinated.




(a) This Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust, ground lease, installment sale agreement and/or other instrument or encumbrance heretofore or hereafter placed upon any or all of Landlord’s interest or estate in the Building or the remainder of the Property and of all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof (all of which are hereinafter referred to collectively as a “mortgage”), all automatically and without the necessity of any further action on the part of the Tenant to effectuate such subordination so long as the holder of the superior interest (ground lessor; mortgagee, etc.) provides to Tenant for execution its customary form of subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement. The Tenant shall, at the request of the holder of any such mortgage, attorn to such holder, and
shall execute, enseal, acknowledge and deliver, upon demand by the Landlord or such holder, such further instrument or instruments evidencing such subordination of the Tenant’s right, title and interest under this Lease to the lien of any such mortgage, and such further instrument or instruments evidencing and elaborating such attornment, as shall be desired by such holder.

(b) Anything contained in the foregoing provisions of this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, any such holder may at any time subordinate its mortgage to the operation and effect of this Lease, without the necessity of obtaining the Tenant’s consent thereto, by giving notice of the same in writing to the Tenant, and thereupon this Lease shall be deemed to be prior to such mortgage without regard to their respective dates of execution, delivery and/or recordation, and in that event such holder shall have the same rights with respect to this Lease as though this Lease shall have been executed, delivered and recorded prior to the execution and delivery of such mortgage.


-27-





(c)
  andlord shall obtain for the benefit of Tenant concurrently with Tenant’s
  execution of this Lease, a subordination non-disturbance and attornment agreement
  from Landlord’s existing mortgagee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
  “J”.

25.
  Condemnation.

(a)
  If the whole or a substantial part of the Property shall be taken or condemned
  for a public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain
  or private purchase in lieu thereof by any competent authority, Tenant shall
  have no claim against Landlord and shall not have any claim or right to any
  portion of the amount that may be awarded as damages or paid as a result of
  any such condemnation or purchase including, without limit, any right of Tenant
  to damages for loss of its leasehold; all right of Tenant to damages therefor
  are hereby assigned by Tenant to Landlord. The foregoing shall not, however,
  deprive Tenant of any separate award for moving expenses, business dislocation
  damages or for any other award which would not reduce the award payable to Landlord.
  Upon the date the right to possession shall vest in the condemning authority
  following the taking of the whole or a substantial part of the Property, this
  Lease shall cease and terminate with rent adjusted to such date and Tenant shall
  have no claim against Landlord for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease.




(b) For purposes of this Article 25, the taking of a “substantial part of the Property” shall mean a taking which renders Tenant unable in Tenant’s reasonable opinion to carry out its business in the Premises irrespective of whether or not a substantial portion of the Premises itself is taken or condemned. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that if access to the Property from public roads or parking at the Property is materially impaired or denied (without such event being mitigated by other factors e.g. the creation of substitute access or substitute parking of reasonably equivalent utility and convenience to Tenant) such event may constitute the taking of a substantial taking of the Property irrespective of the square footage of the Premises taken as well.

(c)
  In the event of any temporary eminent domain taking of the Premises or any part
  thereof for temporary use, this Lease shall not be affected in any manner, the
  Term shall not be reduced, and the Tenant shall continue to pay in full the
  Fixed Rent, additional rent and all other sums of money and charges in this
  Lease reserved and provided to be paid by Tenant. Tenant shall be entitled to
  receive for itself such portion of any eminent domain award made for such temporary
  use with respect to the period of the taking which is within the Term; provided
  that if such temporary taking shall remain in full force at the expiration or
  earlier termination of this Lease, the award shall be apportioned between Landlord
  and Tenant in proportion to the respective portions of the period of temporary
  taking which falls within the Term and which falls outside the Term.

-28-






26.
  Paramount Lease.

If Landlord is or becomes lessee or installment purchaser of the Building, then Tenant agrees that Tenant takes possession subordinate to the interest of Landlord’s lessor or installment seller, its successors and assigns, but notwithstanding the foregoing, in case Landlord’s tenancy or interest as installment purchaser shall terminate either by expiration, forfeiture or otherwise, then Landlord’s lessor or installment seller, its heirs, administrators, executors, successors and assigns, shall have all the rights of Landlord under this Lease, following such termination. In the event of any such termination of Landlord’s tenancy or interest as installment purchaser, Tenant hereby agrees to attorn to Landlord’s lessor, its heirs, administrators, executors, successors and assigns, and to recognize such lessor or installment seller, its heirs, administrators, executors,
successors and assigns, as Tenant’s Landlord for the balance of the term of this Lease and any extensions or renewals of this Lease. Tenant shall execute, enseal, acknowledge and deliver, upon demand by Landlord or Landlord’s lessor or installment seller, such further instrument or instruments evidencing such subordination of Tenant’s right, title and interest under this Lease to the interests of such lessor or installment seller and such further instrument or instruments of attornment, as shall be desired by such lessor or installment seller.

28. Definition of “the Landlord”.

The word “Landlord” is used herein to include the Landlord named above and any subsequent owner of such Landlord’s interest in the Building, as well as their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, each of whom shall have the same rights, remedies, powers, authorities and privileges as it would have had had it originally signed this Lease as Landlord, including the right to proceed in its own name to enter judgment by confession or otherwise, but any such person, whether or not named herein, shall have no liability hereunder after it ceases to hold such interest. Neither Landlord nor any principal of or partner in Landlord, whether disclosed or undisclosed, shall be under any personal liability with respect to any of the provisions of this Lease and if Landlord shall default in the performance of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease or
otherwise, Tenant shall look first to the equity of Landlord in its interest in the Property for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies. However in the event that a final judgment is obtained by Tenant against Landlord and Landlord’s equity in the Property is then insufficient to satisfy such judgment Tenant shall be permitted to setoff the amount by which such judgment exceeds the aforementioned equity against the next payment of Fixed Rent or Additional Rent then becoming due under this Lease.


-30-





29. Definition of “the Tenant”.

As used herein, the term “Tenant” shall be deemed to refer to each and every person and/or entity hereinabove named as such and to such persons’ and/or entities’ respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, each of whom shall have the same obligations, liabilities, rights and privileges as it would have possessed had it originally executed this Lease as the Tenant. However, no such rights, privileges or powers shall inure to the benefit of any assignee of the Tenant, immediate or remote, unless the assignment to such assignee has been approved in writing by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Lease and such assignee shall have executed and delivered to Landlord the written documents required by Landlord referred to hereinbefore. Each and every person hereinabove named as the Tenant shall be bound jointly and severally by the terms,
covenants and agreements contained herein.

30. Estoppel Certificate; Mortgagee Lease Comments.

(D) if applicable, Tenant has accepted the possession of the Premises and has entered into occupancy of the Premises and the date on which the Term shall have commenced and the corresponding expiration date; 

(ii) stating whether or not to the actual knowledge of the signer without independent investigation of such certificate all conditions under the Lease to be performed by Landlord prior thereto have been satisfied and whether or not Landlord is then in default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Lease and specifying, if any, each such unsatisfied condition and each such default of which the signer may have knowledge; and stating any other fact or certifying any other condition reasonably requested by Landlord or requested by any mortgagee or prospective mortgagee or purchaser of the Property or of any interest therein.

(b) Tenant acknowledges that Landlord’s mortgagees and/or the trustee under a trust indenture for bond holders who shall be providing construction and/or permanent financing for the Building (“Mortgagees”) may require various changes in the terms of this Lease as a part of and a condition of their financing. Tenant agrees to cooperate and act in good faith in agreeing to such changes in this Lease by written amendments to this Lease which are required by any of the Mortgagees, provided that such changes do not increase Tenant’s economic burdens under this Lease or otherwise impair Tenant’s occupancy or use of the Building for its operations in ordinary course in the manner anticipated by this Lease.




	
            31.
 	
            Severability.
 





No determination or adjudication by any court, governmental or administrative body or agency or otherwise that any provision of this Lease or of any amendment hereto or modification hereof is invalid or unenforceable in any instance shall affect the validity or the enforceability of any other provision of this Lease, of such amendment or modification, or any other such amendment or modification, or of such provision in any other instance or circumstance which is not within the jurisdiction of such court, body or agency or controlled by its said determination or adjudication. Each and every provision hereof and of each such amendment or modification shall be and remain valid and enforceable to the fullest extent allowed by law, and shall be construed wherever possible as being consistent with applicable law.




	
            32.
 	
            Miscellaneous.
 





(a) The Building may be designated and known by any name Landlord may choose and such name may be changed from time to time at Landlord’s sole discretion.

(b) The term “person” shall be deemed to mean a natural person, a trustee, a corporation, a partnership and any other form of legal entity;

(c) The respective obligations of the Landlord and Tenant under this Lease shall be solely and exclusively for the benefit of the other party to this Lease and its successors and assigns and no other person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such obligations in accordance with their terms. No other person shall have a right or cause of action on account thereof and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be responsible or liable to any third party in connection therewith;

(d) Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed in a manner to create any relationship between Landlord and Tenant other than the relationship of lessor and lessee and Landlord and Tenant shall not be considered partners or co-venturers or in an employer- employee or principal-agent relationship for any purpose;

-32-





(e) Landlord and Tenant each hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of Common Pleas of Pennsylvania and/or the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania concerning any disputes, actions or proceedings between Landlord and Tenant whether arising under this Lease or any other agreement or undertaking, and Landlord and Tenant irrevocably consent to service of process by certified mail return receipt requested to such party’s address set forth in Article 27 of this Lease.

(h) Landlord shall have the right at any time, and from time to time, during the Term, to unilaterally amend the provisions of this Lease if Landlord is advised by its counsel that all or any portion of the monies paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder are, or may be deemed to be, unrelated business income within the meaning of the United States Internal Revenue Code or regulations issued thereunder, and Tenant agrees that it will execute all documents or instruments necessary to effect such amendment or amendments, provided that no such amendment shall result in Tenant having to pay in the aggregate a larger sum of money on account of its occupancy of the Premises under the terms of this Lease as so amended, and provided further that no such amendment or amendments shall result in Tenant receiving under the provisions of this Lease less services than it is entitled to receive, nor services
of a lesser quality and provided further that Tenant shall not be required to enter into any amendment which would be reasonably likely to result in the Lease being characterized under GAAP as a capital lease.

(i) No waiver of any provision of this Lease shall be implied by any failure of a party to the Lease to enforce any remedy allowed for the violation of such provision, even if such violation is continued or repeated, and no express waiver shall affect any provision other than the one(s) specified in such waiver and only then for the time and in the manner specifically stated. No receipt of monies by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease shall in any way alter the length of the Term or of Tenant’s right of possession hereunder or after the giving of any notice shall reinstate, continue or extend the Term or affect any notice given to Tenant prior to the receipt of such moneys, it being agreed that after the service of notice or the commencement of a suit or after final judgment for possession of the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any rent due, and the
payment of said rent shall not waive or affect said notice, suit or judgment.

-33-





(j) It is mutually agreed by and between Landlord and Tenant that they hereby waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other on any matter whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises or claim of injury or damage.

(k) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord and Landlord’s agents have made no representation, agreements, conditions, warranties, understandings, or promises, either oral or written, other than as herein set forth, with respect to this Lease, the Property, the Building, the Premises, or otherwise.

Landlord shall pay all commissions, fees and other compensation due and payable to the Transaction Broker arising from this Lease including from any exercise of the rights set forth in Articles 42 below, if any. This Article 33 shall survive the expiration of the Term or sooner termination of this Lease.

Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the sum of Forty-Seven Thousand Six Hundred Fifty-Four Dollars and Seventy-Five Cents ($47,654.75), with fifty percent (50%) of such sum to be paid concurrently with the execution of this Lease, and the balance being due upon Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises. Such sum shall be retained by Landlord as a security deposit without interest and not in trust or in a separate account as security for the payment by Tenant of the rent herein agreed to be paid and for the faithful performance of the covenants contained in this Lease. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord shall be entitled, at its sole discretion to apply such security deposit aforesaid, 

(i) to payment of

36. Rights of Mortgage Holder.

If the holder of a mortgage covering the Building shall have given prior written notice to Tenant that it is the holder of such mortgage and such notice includes the address at which notices to such mortgagee are to be sent, then Tenant agrees to give to such holder notice simultaneously with any notice given to Landlord to correct any default of Landlord as hereinabove provided in Article 23 and agrees that the holder of record of such mortgage shall have the right, if exercised within the same time period as is accorded Landlord under this Lease to cure a default, to correct or remedy such default before Tenant may take any action under this Lease by reason of such default.

37. Whole Agreement.

It is expressly understood and agreed by and between all the parties hereto that this Lease and any riders attached hereto and forming part hereof set forth all the promises, agreements, warranties, representations and understandings between Landlord and Tenant relative to the Premises and this leasehold, and that there are no promises, agreements, conditions, warranties, representations or understandings, either oral or written, between them other than as herein set forth. It is further understood and agreed that, except as herein otherwise provided, no subsequent alteration, amendment, understanding or addition to this Lease shall be binding upon Landlord or Tenant unless reduced to writing and signed by them.

38. Renewal Option.

(a) Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term (the “Renewal Option”) for one period of five (5) years commencing on the day following the Expiration Date and ending the fifth anniversary of the Expiration Date (such period, the “Renewal Term”). In the event that the Term shall be extended by Tenant’s exercise of the Renewal Option the period comprising the Renewal Term shall constitute a portion of the Term for all purposes of this Lease. The Renewal Option must be exercised, if at all, by written notice by Tenant to Landlord (the “Renewal Notice”) not later than nine (9) months prior to the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Renewal Option shall be null and void and Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term if on the date Tenant exercises the Renewal Option or on the date immediately preceding the commencement date of the Renewal
Term: (a) an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing; or (b) Tenant shall not be creditworthy in the judgment of Landlord. During the Renewal Term all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease applicable to the Building during the Term shall apply except that the Fixed Rent payable by Tenant for the Building during the Renewal Term shall be the then Fair Market Rent (as hereinafter defined).

(b) For purposes of this Article 38, the term “Fair Market Rent” shall mean a sum equal to ninety five percent (95%) of the rental rate for comparable space under primary lease (and not sublease), situated in first-class, reputable, established office buildings of comparable size, quality and location to the Building in the Market Area, engaged in then- prevailing customary rental market practices with respect to market rent concessions and other tenant inducements (described in the aggregate or a dollar per square foot basis) then being given to tenants, including without limitation, rental abatement concessions, tenant improvements or allowances provided or to be provided, customary third party leasing brokerage commissions for comparable transactions, and any other monetary and nonmonetary concessions, if any, being granted to tenants in connection with such comparable space
and which rent shall also reflect appropriate adjustments in light of any difference between the Building and those buildings comparable to the Building located in the Market Area. Landlord and Tenant shall endeavor to mutually agree upon the Fair Market Rent within the forty-five (45) day period commencing on Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s exercise of the Renewal Option. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Fair Market Rent within such forty-five (45) day period, then the Fan- Market Rent shall be established by appraisal in accordance with the procedure set forth in paragraph (c) below.

-35-





(c) If Landlord and Tenant do not mutually agree upon the Fair Market Rent pursuant to subparagraph (b) above, within ten (10) days after the expiration of the forty-five (45) day period referred to therein, each party hereto, at its cost, shall engage a real estate appraiser to act on its behalf in determining the Fair Market Rent. The appraisers shall each have at least ten (10) years’ experience with leases in first class office buildings in the Market Area. If a party does not appoint an appraiser within such ten (10) day period but an appraiser is appointed by the other party, the single appraiser appointed shall be the sole appraiser and shall set the Fair Market Rent within thirty (30) days after the expiration of such ten (10) day period. If the two appraisers are appointed by the parties as stated herein, such appraisers shall meet promptly and attempt to set the Fair Market
Rent. If such appraisers are unable to agree within thirty (30) days after appointment of the second appraiser (the “Decision Date”), the appraisers shall select a third appraiser meeting the qualifications specified above in this paragraph (c) within ten (10) days after the Decision Date. Each of the parties hereto shall bear one-half (1/2) the cost of appointing the third appraiser and of the cost of the third appraiser’s fee. The third appraiser shall be a person who has not previously acted in any capacity for either party. Within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third appraiser, the majority of the appraisers shall set the Fair Market Rent, If a majority of the appraisers are unable to set the Fair Market Rent within such thirty (30) day period each appraiser shall, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, render a separate appraisal. The Fair Market Rent arrived at by the three appraisers shall be averaged and the resulting average shall be the Fair Market
Rent. Tenant shall have a period often (10) days after the determination of Fair Market Rent pursuant to the foregoing terms and conditions of this paragraph (c) to notify Landlord that Tenant elects to withdraw from and cancel its exercise of the Renewal Option. In the event Tenant shall fail to so notify Landlord within the aforementioned ten (10) day period then the Renewal Option shall be deemed to be in full force and effect.

(d) If the Fair Market Rent has not been determined by the commencement date of the Renewal Term, Tenant shall pay Fixed Rent at the same amount as is required for the last month of the initial Term for the Premises until such time as the Fair Market Rent has been determined. Upon such determination, the Fixed Rent for the Premises shall be retroactively adjusted to the commencement of the Renewal Term for the Premises. If such adjustment results in an underpayment of Fixed Rent by Tenant, Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of such underpayment within thirty (30) days after the determination thereof. If such adjustment results in an overpayment of Fixed Rent by Tenant, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against the next installment of Fixed Rent and additional rent due under the Lease and, to the extent necessary, any subsequent installments, until the entire amount of such
overpayment has been credited against Fixed Rent.

-36-





(e) If Tenant is entitled to and properly exercises its Renewal Option, Landlord shall prepare an amendment (the “Renewal Amendment”) to reflect changes in the Fixed Rent, term and other applicable provisions. The Renewal Amendment shall be sent to Tenant within a reasonable time after receipt of Tenant’s notice of exercise of its Renewal Option and the final determination of the Fair Market Rent and Tenant shall execute and return the Renewal Amendment to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after Tenant’s receipt of same, but, an otherwise valid exercise of the Renewal Option shall be fully effective whether or not the Renewal Amendment is executed.

39. TI Allowance.

Landlord shall provide Tenant the sum of $371,120.53 ($25.31) per rentable square foot) in tenant improvement allowance (the “TI Allowance”). Provided that Tenant is not then in default under this Lease, at Tenant’s request Landlord shall disburse portions of the TI Allowance to Tenant to reimburse Tenant for the “hard” and “soft” costs related to Tenant Work. If the actual cost of the Tenant Work is less than the TI Allowance any such excess shall be disbursed to Tenant upon Tenant’s request to Landlord to reimburse Tenant for costs incurred to purchase or install moveable walls, office furniture, cubicles and work stations and/or for the cost of Tenant’s Direct Tenant Work. Tenant shall be required to provide to Landlord reasonable evidence of the Tenant’s incurring of the applicable Tenant Work (e.g. copies of vendor invoices) or as to
the excess nature of funds concerning which Tenant seeks a disbursement of the TI Allowance. Landlord shall pay Tenant within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s request for a disbursement of the TI Allowance. The cost of all final plans may be reimbursed to Tenant out of the TI Allowance. Tenant, at its sole cost, may engage a project manager to assist it in connection with the construction of the Tenant Work.

40. Tenant Financial Statements.

Upon the request of Landlord (which may be made no more often than twice in each calendar year) Tenant shall supply to Landlord copies of all of Tenant’s most recent financial statements then available. Such financial statements shall be provided by Tenant to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s request therefor and shall be kept confidential but may be disclosed to: (i) the extent required by law; and (ii) Landlord’s employees and advisors (e.g. accountants, attorneys etc.) who are similarly bound by such confidentiality, to the extent necessary for Landlord to exercise its rights and fulfill its obligations under this Lease.

41. Landlord Representations and Warranties.

Landlord hereby covenants and warrants that:

(i) Landlord is the fee simple owner of the Building and the Property, and Landlord has good and marketable title thereto.

(vii) There are no hazardous or toxic substances in, under or about the Property except for items customarily utilized in an office building setting all of which are being utilized in accordance with applicable law.

(viii) Landlord is duly organized, validly subsisting legal entity, qualified to do business in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, with no proceedings pending or contemplated for its dissolution or reorganization, voluntarily or involuntarily.

(ix) Landlord has the full right, power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Lease and the person executing this Lease on behalf of Landlord is authorized to do so.

Annual fixed rent under the Relocation Lease (as hereinafter defined) shall be equal to the aggregate of: (i) then Fair Market Rent (which shall be calculated as set forth in Article 38 of this Lease); and (ii) the then applicable Unamortized Transaction Cost Component (as hereinafter defined). The lease (the “Relocation Lease”) between Landlord and Tenant for Tenant’s new premises (the “Relocation Premises”) [which will also involve a termination of this Lease], shall be on the same terms as those contained in this Lease.
