**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

On September 1, 2025 (the "Lease Commencement Date"), Hims, Inc. ("Hims"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hims & Hers Health, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a lease agreement (the "Lease") with Mendel New Albany Property Owner LLC (the "Landlord") for the lease of approximately 352,012 square feet of space located at 9885 Innovation Campus Way, New Albany, Ohio (the "Premises"). The Company will use the Premises for office, research and development, laboratory, manufacturing, and pharmaceutical dispensing purposes

The Lease provides for an initial term of 15 years. Hims has two successive options to extend the term for five years each. Rent payments will commence on April 1, 2026 (the "Rent Commencement Date").

The Lease provides for annual base rent of $5,984,204 for the first lease year (approximately $498,684 per month), subject to the abatement provisions described below. Annual base rent will increase by approximately 3.25% each year thereafter.

Annual base rent will be abated in its entirety from the Lease Commencement Date through the day immediately preceding the Rent Commencement Date, and a portion of annual base rent equal to $262,838.42 per month will be abated for the five-month period following the Rent Commencement Date.

In addition to the base rent, Hims is responsible for all operating expenses, including insurance and real estate taxes, with such charges to commence upon the Rent Commencement Date.

As security for its obligations under the Lease, Hims delivered a letter of credit issued by JPMorgan Chase Bank in the amount of $5,984,204.

On September 1, 2025, the Company executed a Guaranty of Lease (the "Guaranty") whereby the Company will guarantee Hims' obligations under the Lease.

The foregoing description of the Lease and the Guaranty do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Lease and the Guaranty, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

attributable to the installation, inspection, adjustment, maintenance, removal or replacement by Tenant of any of Tenant's rooftop equipment or apparatus; and (J) the Roof Use shall be solely in the ordinary course of Tenant's business operations (and Tenant may not sublease, license or otherwise permit third parties to establish communications transmission facilities as part of Tenant's Roof Use except as a right appurtenant to their subletting of the Premises or assumption of this Lease). Any electric current necessary to operate the Tenant's rooftop equipment shall be obtained by Tenant from the public utility furnishing electric to the Premises (or derived from the same separately metered service in the Premises) and Landlord shall have no obligation to furnish any electric current (or any other utilities) in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord shall have the right, at any time upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Tenant indicating the relocation location and requirement, to require Tenant to relocate any of its rooftop equipment to such alternative rooftop location as is reasonably designated by Landlord in such notice. Such relocation shall be at Landlord's sole cost and expense. If Tenant fails to comply with the terms of this **Section 2.2(e)** in the Roof Use, Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to remove the Tenant's rooftop equipment that is not in compliance with Tenant's Roof Use rights set forth in this **Section 2.2(e),** in which event such removal shall be at Tenant's sole cost and expense.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Generator.</u> To the extent permitted by applicable Laws, Tenant shall have the right to install a pad and a back-up generator with a capacity reasonably acceptable to Landlord (the **"Generator")** for Tenant's exclusive use in an area approved by Landlord in its sole discretion (the **"Generator Areas").** Tenant shall be responsible for obtaining all permits and approvals necessary for the installation and operation of the Generator and delivering copies of the same to Landlord. The Generator shall be screened in a manner and design approved by Landlord and shall include any noise mitigation requirements imposed by Landlord. The Generator shall be used solely for accessory use to Tenant's operations in the Premises, and under no circumstances shall Tenant sell, lease or license the use of such Generator to any other party. Tenant may only operate the Generator when necessary for testing or for emergency power to the Premises. After installation, Tenant shall be responsible, at its expense, for (i) compliance with all Laws applicable to the Generator, (ii) maintaining any permits that may be required by any governmental authority in connection with use and maintenance of the same (and delivering copies of the same to Landlord), and (iii) complying with the Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) rules and regulations applicable to the Generator. The Generator Areas shall have suitable provision for intake air and exhaust, as well as attendant louvers and controls and systems for retention of any spilled fuel. Tenant understands and agrees that no materials whatsoever are to be furnished by Landlord and no work whatsoever is to be performed by Landlord and no services of any kind whatsoever are to be furnished by Landlord in connection with the installation, use and operation of the Generator and any related equipment. Tenant shall be responsible for maintaining the Generator and the Generator Areas in good and safe condition, and shall promptly repair any and all damage to the Generator, the Generator Areas, and to any other part of the Premises or the Property caused by or resulting from Tenant's installation, use, maintenance, repair, operation or removal of the Generator and all related equipment. All costs and expenses related to, or connected with, the use, erection, installation, maintenance, repair and operation of the Generator and/or the Fuel Tank shall be the responsibility of Tenant. Upon the expiration of the Term or upon earlier termination, if Landlord so directs by written notice to Tenant given at least six (6) months in advance of the Expiration Date, Tenant

------

shall promptly remove the Generator, the Fuel Tank and related equipment, and Tenant shall repair any damage to the portion or portions of the Premises and/or Property caused by or resulting from such removal by Tenant. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord in writing of any spill, release or discharge of fuel or other Hazardous Materials related to the Generator and/or Fuel Tank and Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless in connection with any loss, cost, damage, claim or liability arising out of the same.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Option to Extend</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Provided that, at the time of such exercise, (i) this Lease is in full force and effect, and (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (either at the time of exercise or at the commencement of the Extended Term (defined below)), and (iii) Tenant shall not have sublet more than thirty-five percent (35%) of the Premises (other than to any entity permitted under **Section 6.l(b)** and any space occupied by governmental or quasi governmental entities with which Tenant is then partnering to provide services) (any of which conditions described in clauses (i), (ii), and (iii) may be waived by Landlord at any time in Landlord's sole discretion), Tenant shall have the right and option to extend the Term of this Lease for two (2) extended terms (each an **"Extended Term")** of five (5) years each by giving written notice to Landlord not later than twelve (12) months and no sooner than fifteen (15) months prior to the expiration date of the Term then in effect. The effective giving of such notice of extension by Tenant shall automatically extend the Term of this Lease for the applicable Extended Term, and no instrument of renewal or extension need be executed. In the event that Tenant fails timely to give such notice to Landlord, this Lease shall automatically terminate at the end of the Term and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Lease. Each Extended Term shall commence on the day immediately succeeding the expiration date of the Term and shall end on the day immediately preceding the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) anniversary of the first day of the Extended Term. Each Extended Term shall be on all the terms and conditions of this Lease, except: (A) during the second Extended Term, Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term, (B) the Basic Rent for each Extended Term shall be the greater of (x) the Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises as of the commencement of such Extended Term, taking into account all relevant factors, determined pursuant to **Section 2.3(b)** below and (y) the Basic Rent in effect for the final Lease Year of the prior Term, increased by 3.25%, (C) Landlord shall not be required to furnish any materials or perform any work to prepare the Premises for Tenant's occupancy during any Extended Term, and (D) and Landlord shall not be required to provide any work allowance, reimburse Tenant for any alterations made or to be made by Tenant, or grant Tenant any rent concession.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Promptly after receiving Tenant's notice extending the Term of this Lease pursuant to **Section 2.3(a)** above, Landlord shall provide Tenant with Landlord's good faith estimate of the Fair Market Rental Value (as defined in **Section 2.3(c)** below) of the Premises for the applicable Extended Term, but in no event shall Landlord be required to deliver such estimate sooner than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration date of the Term. If Tenant is unwilling to accept Landlord's estimate of the Fair Market Rental Value as set forth in Landlord's notice referred to above, and the parties are unable to reach agreement thereon within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice by Landlord, then each party shall submit their best and final determination of Fair Market Rental Value to one another (each a **"Final FMV Determination"),** and if following ten (10) days after receipt of the final

------

determination, the parties are unable to reach agreement thereon, then either party may submit the determination of the Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises to arbitration by giving notice to the other party naming the initiating party's arbitrator within ten (10) days after the expiration of such thirty (30)-day period. Within fifteen (15) days after receiving a notice of initiation of arbitration, the responding party shall appoint its own arbitrator by notifying the initiating party of the responding party's arbitrator. If the second arbitrator shall not have been so appointed within such thirty (30) day period, the Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises shall be the Final FMV Determination as submitted by the party initiating arbitration. If the second arbitrator shall have been so appointed, the two arbitrators thus appointed shall, within fifteen (15) days after the responding party's notice of appointment of the second arbitrator, appoint a third arbitrator. If the two initial arbitrators are unable timely to agree on the third arbitrator, then either may, on behalf of both, request such appointment by the Columbus office of JAMS, Inc., or its successor, or, on its failure, refusal or inability to act, by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises for the applicable Extended Term shall be determined by the method commonly known as Baseball Arbitration, whereby Landlord's selected arbitrator and Tenant's selected arbitrator and the third arbitrator must select one or the other of the party's Final FMV Determination (it being understood that the third arbitrator shall be expressly prohibited from selecting a compromise figure). The third arbitrator's decision shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant. Each arbitrator shall be a commercial real estate broker who is independent from the parties and who has not worked for either party or their affiliates in the prior five (5) years and who has at least ten (10) years' experience in comparable buildings in the New Albany area. Each party shall pay the fees of its own arbitrator, and the fees of the third arbitrator shall be shared equally by the parties. In the event Tenant initiates the aforesaid arbitration process and as of the commencement of the applicable Extended Term the amount of the Basic Rent for the Extended Term has not been determined, Tenant shall pay the amount determined by Landlord for the Premises and when the determination has actually been made, an appropriate retroactive adjustment shall be made as of the commencement of such Extended Term if necessary. In the event that such determination shall result in an overpayment by Tenant of any Basic Rent, such overpayment shall be paid by Landlord to Tenant promptly after such determination has been made, and if such determination shall result in an underpayment by Tenant of any Basic Rent, Tenant shall pay any such amounts to Landlord promptly following such determination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For purposes of this **Section 2.3,** the determination **of"Fair Market Rental Value"** shall mean the then fair market rental value of the Premises taking into account all then-relevant factors, whether favorable to Landlord or Tenant, and based upon rental rates agreed to in comparable transactions executed within twelve (12) months prior to such determination with new tenants for comparable space in the Building and comparable transactions that landlords of other first-class laboratory and pharmaceutical manufacturing buildings in the New Albany, Ohio area (or if unavailable, in other U.S. markets with similar concentrations of like-kind lab/manufacturing uses) have agreed to accept with tenants of comparable creditworthiness for comparable space (in terms of condition, any and all Installations, Building location and floor location) of a comparable size, for a comparable use, for a nonrenewal term equal to the applicable Extended Term and commencing as of the first day of such Extended Term and taking into account all other relevant factors.

**ARTICLE 3 <u>BASIC RENT</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Payment.</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, or as directed by Landlord, the Basic Rent and Additional Rent, commencing on the Commencement Date, without offset, abatement (except as provided in **Section 11.3),** deduction or demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within ten (10) days following receipt of the mutually executed Lease, an amount equal to the first monthly installment of Basic Rent (to be applied to the first two months following the Rent Commencement Date), plus, if the Rent Commencement Date is not the first day of a calendar month, a proportionate part of the monthly installment of Basic Rent for the partial month from the Rent Commencement Date to the last day of the month in which such day occurs (and in such case, the Rent Abatement Period shall commence on the first day of the month following the Rent Commencement Date). Subject to the Rent Abatement Period, Basic Rent shall be payable in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each and every calendar month during the Term of this Lease, to Landlord at Landlord's Notice Address or at such other place as Landlord shall from time to time designate by notice, in lawful money of the United States. In the event that any installment of Basic Rent or any payment of Additional Rent is not paid when due, Tenant shall pay, in addition to any charges under **Section 14.3,** at Landlord's request an administrative fee equal to 5% of the overdue payment; provided, however, that Landlord shall waive the first late charge in any consecutive twelve (12) month period if Tenant pays the amount of such overdue payment within five (5) business days after Landlord sends written notice of such failure to Tenant. In addition to the foregoing, if payment of Rent or other charges due under this Lease are not paid when due, such past due amount shall bear interest from the date due until paid at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) twelve percent (12%) and (ii) the highest rate permitted to be charged by applicable Law (the **"Default Interest Rate").** Landlord and Tenant agree that all amounts due from Tenant under or in respect of this Lease, whether labeled Basic Rent, Direct Expense Charges, Additional Rent or otherwise, shall be considered as rental reserved under this Lease for all purposes, including without limitation regulations promulgated pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, and including further without limitation Section 502(b) thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Basic Rent and Additional Rent for any partial month shall be pro-rated on

a daily basis.

**ARTICLE 4 <u>CONDITION OF PREMISES</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Condition of Premises.</u>** The Premises are being leased in their present condition, AS IS, WITHOUT REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY by Landlord. Landlord shall have no obligation to perform any alterations or to make any improvements to the Premises to prepare them for Tenant's occupancy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord covenants and agrees that the systems, equipment and installations set forth on **<u>Exhibit I</u>** attached hereto are located in the Building and will be in place on the Commencement Date. Additionally,

------

Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that, to Landlord's knowledge as of the Effective Date of this Lease: (i) the Building Systems are in operating condition and repair; (ii) the Premises is not subject to any pending litigation or government investigation; (iii) the lease with the previous tenant, AmplyifyBio, LLC, has been terminated, and there are no encumbrances related to such lease which would impact or affect Landlord's ability to deliver the Premises to Tenant for Tenant's exclusive use.

**ARTICLE 5 <u>USE OF PREMISES</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Permitted Use.</u>** Tenant agrees that the Premises shall be used and occupied by Tenant only for the Permitted Use and for no other use without Landlord's express written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, provided that such use complies with all applicable Laws and will not permit the Premises to be used for laboratory uses above the category of Biosafety Level 2 (BSL-2). Tenant shall not perform any act or carry on any practice which may injure the Premises, or any other part of the Building or Property, or cause any offensive odors or loud noise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Installations and Alterations by Tenant.</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tenant shall make no alterations, additions or improvements (collectively, **"Alterations")** in or to the Premises (including any Alterations necessary for Tenant's initial occupancy of the Premises) or any Base Building Systems serving the Premises, without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed with respect to non-structural Alterations that do not affect or involve any portion of the Base Building or the Base Building Systems. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Tenant shall provide written advance notice of, but Landlord's prior consent shall not be required with respect to, any Alterations to the Premises which (i) are cosmetic in nature (including, but not limited to, repair and/or replacement of paint and carpeting in the Premises), (ii) do not require a permit, (iii) do not adversely affect the Structural Elements, Base Building Systems, or the Building exterior, and (iv) will not cost more than $250,000.00 in any one project or series of related projects **("Cosmetic Alterations").** If Landlord disapproves of any proposed Alterations, Landlord shall respond, in writing, stating the grounds for such disapproval, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of Tenant's request for approval of the proposed Alterations, which consent shall include all materials and information required by this Lease. If Landlord fails to respond to such request with its approval or disapproval within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of Tenant's request, then Tenant may send Landlord a reminder notice setting forth such failure containing the following sentence at the top of such notice in bold, capitalized font at least twelve (12) points in size: **"LANDLORD'S FAILURE TO RESPOND TO TIDS NOTICE WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS SHALL RESULT** IN **LANDLORD'S DEEMED APPROVAL OF TENANT'S ALTERATION"** (the **"Alteration Reminder Notice").** Any such Alteration Reminder Notice shall include a complete copy of Tenant's plans and specification for such Alteration and all other information required for Landlord to process such request. If Landlord fails to respond within five (5) Business Days after receipt of an Alteration Reminder Notice, then Tenant's Alteration for which Tenant requested Landlord's approval shall be deemed approved by Landlord. Any Alterations shall be in accordance with Landlord's Rules and

------

Regulations from time to time in effect and with plans and specifications meeting the requirements set forth in such Rules and Regulations and approved in advance by Landlord. All Alterations (including Cosmetic Alterations) shall (i) be performed in a good and workmanlike manner using only new and only quality materials and in compliance with all applicable Laws; (ii) be made at Tenant's sole cost and expense; (iii) become part of the Premises and the property of Landlord upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease unless Landlord otherwise notifies Tenant such Alteration must be removed as provided in **Section 5.2(b)** below; (iv) be made by contractors and subcontractors approved in advance by Landlord; and (v) be coordinated with any work being performed by Landlord in such a manner as not to damage the Building or interfere with the management, maintenance or operation of the Building. At Landlord's written request, Tenant shall, before its work is started, secure assurances satisfactory to Landlord in its reasonable discretion protecting Landlord against claims arising out of the furnishing of labor and materials for the Alterations. If Landlord's property management firm is not retained by Tenant under separate project management scope for any Alterations, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a fee for the property manager's services equal to reasonable and actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred for base building coordination, including review of tenant improvement plans and all actual, reasonable third party attorneys', architects', engineers', and consultants' fees. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that any review or approval by Landlord of any plans and/or specifications with respect to any Alterations is solely for Landlord's benefit, and without any representation or warranty whatsoever to Tenant with respect to the adequacy, correctness or efficiency thereof or otherwise. Landlord shall have the right to require that Tenant use Landlord's designated structural contractor and architect for the Building for the design and performance of any Alterations affecting the Structural Elements and/or that Tenant use Landlord's designated fire and life safety contractor and engineer for the Building to perform Tenant's connection to the Building's fire alarm system or any Alterations that affect the fire alarm or fire/life safety systems in the Building, but only to the extent such designated contractor and/or engineer is available and charges commercially reasonably rates. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant intends to perform certain Alterations at the Property to bring additional electrical power to the Premises, including installation of additional transformers **("Transformer Work").** The Transformer Work shall constitute Alterations to the Premises subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease. Upon completion of the Transformer Work, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for fifty percent (50%) of actual costs incurred for the Transformer Work up to a maximum reimbursement of $400,000.00, within thirty (30) days following receipt by Landlord of (i) invoices for the Transformer Work; (ii) copies of final lien waivers; (iii) a certificate signed by the Tenant's architect certifying that the Transformer Work represented by the aforementioned invoices has been completed substantially in accordance with the approved plans; (iv) a certificate of substantial completion and as-built plans; and (v) all other information and materials reasonably and promptly requested by Landlord. Landlord agrees that Tenant shall not be required to remove any element of the Transformer Work upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant at the time that Landlord approves such Alterations, require Tenant, at Tenant's expense, to remove any Alterations in the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, to repair any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal and return the affected portion of the Premises to a Building standard tenant improved condition as determined by Landlord. If Tenant fails to

------

complete such removal and/or to repair any damage caused by the removal of any Alterations in the Premises, and return the affected portion of the Premises to a Building standard tenant improved condition as determined by Landlord, then, without limiting Landlord's other rights and remedies, at Landlord's option, either (I) Tenant shall be deemed to be holding over in the Premises and Rent shall continue to accrue in accordance with the terms of **Article 12,** below, until such work shall be completed (and Landlord agrees that Tenant shall continue to have access to the Premises during such period solely for the purposes of completing such work), or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Landlord may do so and may charge the cost thereof to Tenant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notice is hereby given that Landlord shall not be liable for any labor or materials furnished or to be furnished to Tenant upon credit, and that no mechanic's or other lien for any such labor or materials shall attach to or affect the reversion or other estate or interest of Landlord in and to the Premises, the Building or the Property. To the maximum extent permitted by Law, before such time as any contractor commences to perform work on behalf of Tenant, such contractor (and any subcontractors) shall furnish a written statement acknowledging the provisions set forth in the prior clause. Tenant agrees to pay promptly when due the entire cost of any work done on behalf of Tenant, its agents, employees or independent contractors, and not to cause or permit any liens for labor or materials performed or furnished in connection therewith to attach to all or any part of the Property and immediately to discharge any such liens which may so attach. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any lien is filed against all or any part of the Property for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to, Tenant or its agents, employees or independent contractors, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall cause such lien to be dissolved promptly after receipt of notice that such lien has been filed, by the payment thereof or by the filing of a bond sufficient to accomplish the foregoing. If Tenant shall fail to discharge any such lien, within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of notice that such lien has been filed, Landlord may, at its option, discharge such lien and treat the cost thereof (including attorneys' fees incurred in connection therewith) as Additional Rent payable upon demand, it being expressly agreed that such discharge by Landlord shall not be deemed to waive or release the Event of Default in not discharging such lien. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all expenses, liens, claims, liabilities and damages based on or arising by reason of the making of any Alterations by or on behalf of Tenant to the Premises under this Section, which obligation shall survive the expiration or termination of the Term of this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Intentionally Omitted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other than any moveable trade fixtures, machinery, equipment and other personal property which may be removed without damage to the Premises, which damage shall be repaired (including capping or terminating utility hook-ups behind walls) by Tenant during the Term (collectively, **"Tenant's Removable Property"),** all real property fixtures, built-in machinery and equipment, built-in casework and cabinets, fume hoods which penetrate the roof or plenum area, built-in cold rooms, built-in warm rooms, walk-in cold rooms, walk-in wa1m rooms, clean rooms, deionized water systems, glass washing equipment, autoclaves, chillers, the Generator, built-in plumbing, electrical and mechanical equipment and systems, and any property of any kind paid for by Landlord (collectively, **"Installations")** shall not be removed by Tenant at any time during the Term and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises as a part thereof in accordance with **Section 12.2** following the expiration or

------

earlier termination of this Lease: <u>p</u><u>rovided</u><u>,</u> <u>however,</u> that Landlord shall, at the time its approval of such Installation is requested notify Tenant if it has elected to cause Tenant to remove such Installation upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. If Landlord so elects, Tenant shall remove such Installation upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and restore any damage caused by or occasioned as a result of such removal, including, when removing any Installations that were plumbed, wired or otherwise connected to any of the Base Building Systems, capping off all such connections behind the walls of the Premises and repairing any holes. Any provision of this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall be solely responsible for the ordering, delivery and installation of any telephone, telephone switching, telephone and data cabling, and Tenant's Removable Property to be installed by or on behalf of Tenant in the Premises and for the removal of all telephone and data cabling and all other lines installed in the Building by or on behalf of Tenant or anyone claiming by, through or under Tenant at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Extra Hazardous Use.</u>** Tenant covenants and agrees that Tenant will not do or permit anything to be done in or upon the Premises, or bring in anything or keep anything therein, which shall increase the rate of property or liability insurance on the Premises or the Property above the standard rate applicable to Premises being occupied for the Permitted Use. If the premium or rates payable with respect to any policy or policies of insurance carried by or on behalf of Landlord with respect to the Building and/or the Property increases as a result of any act or activity on or use of the Premises during the Term or payment by the insurer of any claim arising from any act or neglect of Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors or invitees, Tenant shall pay such increase, from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after written demand therefor by Landlord, as Additional Rent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Hazardous Materials.</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be brought upon, kept or used in or about the Premises, the Building or the Property by Tenant or any third party in violation of applicable Laws at any time during the Term or any period after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease that Tenant or any party claiming by, through or under Tenant remains in possession of the Property. If (i) Tenant breaches such obligation, (ii) the presence of Hazardous Materials as a result of such a breach results in contamination of the Property, any portion thereof, or any adjacent property, (iii) contamination of the Premises otherwise occurs during the Tenn or any extension or renewal hereof or holding over hereunder, or (iv) contamination of the Property occurs as a result of Hazardous Materials that are placed on or under or are released into the Property, then Tenant shall indemnify, save, defend (at Landlord's option and with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold the Landlord Indemnitees harmless from and against any and all demands, claims, liabilities, losses, costs, expenses, actions, causes of action, damages, suits or judgments, and all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees, charges and disbursements, regardless of whether the applicable demand, claim, action, cause of action or suit is voluntarily withdrawn or dismissed) **("Claims")** of any kind or nature, including (x) diminution in value of the Property or any portion thereof and (y) sums paid in settlement of Claims that arise during or after the Term as a result of such breach or contamination. This indemnification by Tenant includes costs incurred in connection with any investigation of site

------

conditions or any clean-up, remedial, removal or restoration work required by any governmental authority because of Hazardous Materials present in the air, soil or groundwater above, on, under or about the Property. Without limiting the foregoing, if the presence of any Hazardous Materials in, on, under or about the Property, any portion thereof or any adjacent property results in any contamination of the Property, any portion thereof or any adjacent property, then Tenant shall promptly take all actions at its sole cost and expense as are necessary to return the Property, any portion thereof or any adjacent property to its respective condition existing prior to the time of such contamination; <u>p</u><u>rovided</u> that Landlord's written approval of such action shall first be obtained, which approval Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition, or delay; and <u>p</u><u>rovided</u>, further, that it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent if such actions could have a material adverse long-term or short-term effect on the Property, any portion thereof or any adjacent property. Tenant's obligations under this Section shall not be affected, reduced or limited by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for Tenant under workers' compensation acts, disability benefit acts, employee benefit acts or similar legislation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Tenant's obligation to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Landlord shall not extend to any injury, loss, claim, damage, fine, judgment, penalty, cost, or liability arising as a result of: (A) contamination of the Premises by Hazardous Materials caused by Landlord; (B) Hazardous Materials existing on or about the Premises prior to the Commencement Date as a result of the act or omission of any party other than Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors or invitees; or (C) Hazardous Materials migrating or being released onto the Premises from off the Premises, in either case as a result of the act or omission of any party other than Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors or invitees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Landlord acknowledges that it is not the intent of this Article to prohibit Tenant from operating its business for the Permitted Use. Tenant may operate its business according to the custom of Tenant's industry, including by, but not limited to, using, handling, and storing Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Premises, so long as the use or presence of Hazardous Materials is strictly and properly monitored in accordance with applicable Laws and Environmental Laws. As a material inducement to Landlord to allow Tenant to use Hazardous Materials in connection with its business, Tenant agrees to deliver to Landlord (i) a list identifying each type of Hazardous Material to be present at the Premises that is subject to regulation under any Environmental Laws, (ii) a list of any and all approvals or permits from governmental authorities required in connection with the presence of such Hazardous Material at the Premises and (iii) correct and complete copies of (x) notices of violations of applicable Laws related to Hazardous Materials and (y) plans relating to the installation of any storage tanks to be installed in, on, under or about the Property <u>(p</u><u>rovided</u> that installation of storage tanks shall only be permitted after Landlord has given Tenant its written consent to do so, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and closure plans or any other documents required by any and all governmental authorities for any storage tanks installed in, on, under or about the Property for the closure of any such storage tanks (collectively, **"Hazardous Materials Documents").** Tenant shall deliver to Landlord updated Hazardous Materials Documents, within fourteen (14) days after receipt of a written request therefor from Landlord, not more often than once per year, unless there are any changes to the Hazardous Materials Documents or Tenant initiates any Alterations or changes its business, in either case in a way that involves any material increase in the types or amounts of Hazardous Materials. For each type of Hazardous Material listed, the Hazardous Materials Documents

------

shall include (t) the chemical name, (u) the material state (e.g., solid, liquid, gas or cryogen), (v) the concentration, (w) the storage amount and storage condition (e.g., in cabinets or not in cabinets), (x) the use amount and use condition (e.g., open use or closed use), (y) the location (e.g., room number or other identification) and (z) if known, the chemical abstract service number. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, Tenant shall not be required to provide Landlord with any Hazardous Materials Documents containing information of a proprietary nature, which Hazardous Materials Documents, in and of themselves, do not contain a reference to any Hazardous Materials or activities related to Hazardous Materials. Landlord may, at Tenant's expense, cause the Hazardous Materials Documents to be reviewed by a person or firm qualified to analyze Hazardous Materials to confirm compliance with the provisions of this Lease and with Applicable Laws. In the event that a review of the Hazardous Materials Documents indicates non-compliance with this Lease or applicable Laws, Tenant shall, at its expense, diligently take steps to bring its storage and use of Hazardous Materials into compliance. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary or Landlord's review of Tenant's Hazardous Materials Documents or use or disposal of Hazardous Materials, however, Landlord shall not have and expressly disclaims any liability related to Tenant's or other tenants' use or disposal of Hazardous Materials, it being acknowledged by Tenant that Tenant is best suited to evaluate the safety and efficacy of its Hazardous Materials usage and procedures.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At any time, and from time to time, prior to the expiration of the Term, but subject to the requirements of **Section 15.1** below, Landlord shall have the right to conduct appropriate tests of the Property or any portion thereof to demonstrate that Hazardous Materials are present or that contamination has occurred. Tenant shall pay all reasonable costs of such tests if such tests reveal that Hazardous Materials exist at the Property in violation of this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If underground or other storage tanks storing Hazardous Materials installed or utilized by Tenant are located on the Premises, or are hereafter placed on the Premises by Tenant (or by any other party, if such storage tanks are utilized by Tenant), then Tenant shall monitor the storage tanks, maintain appropriate records, implement reporting procedures, properly close any underground storage tanks, and take or cause to be taken all other steps necessary or required under the applicable Laws. Tenant shall have no responsibility or liability for underground or other storage tanks installed by anyone other than Tenant unless Tenant utilizes such tanks, in which case Tenant's responsibility for such tanks shall be as set forth in this Section. As of its execution hereof, Landlord consents in concept to Tenant's installation of above ground storage tank facilities having up to 5,000 gallons of capacity for storage of ethyl alcohol (the **"Storage Tanks")** on the Property outside of the Premises during the Term, subject to Landlord's approval of plans and specifications of such Storage Tanks, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tenant shall promptly report to Landlord any actual or suspected presence of mold or water intrusion at the Premises of which Tenant is aware.

------

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord shall be responsible to remove, remediate or abate Hazardous Materials located in the Building or at the Property (i) as of the Effective Date of this Lease or (ii) brought upon, kept or used in or about the Building or the Property in violation of applicable Environmental Laws by Landlord or any other Landlord Party, if and to the extent required by and in accordance with, applicable Environmental Laws or if such Hazardous Materials would prevent Tenant from obtaining a certificate of occupancy, create a material risk to the health and safety of Tenant or its employees, and/or otherwise materially and adversely affect Tenant's use of, or access to, the Premises. Landlord hereby agrees to indemnify, defend, save and keep Tenant harmless from and against any and all Claims incurred in connection with, or arising out of, any Hazardous Materials located in the Building or at the Property (x) as of the Effective Date of this Lease or (y) brought upon, kept or used in or about the Building or the Property in violation of applicable Environmental Laws by Landlord or any other Landlord Party.

During any period of time needed by Tenant or Landlord after the termination of this Lease to complete the removal from the Premises of any such

Hazardous Materials, as identified in the Surrender Plan under **Section 12.2(b),** Tenant shall be deemed a holdover tenant and subject to the provisions of **Section 12.1.**

Tenant shall not permit any person to enter the Premises for the purpose of providing such extermination services, unless such persons have been approved by Landlord, where such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall provide all pest control services along the exterior of the Building.

occupied or permitted to be used or occupied, by anyone other than Tenant, or be sublet (which term, without limitation, shall include granting of concessions, licenses and the like) in whole or in part, or be offered or advertised for assignment or subletting by Tenant or any person acting on behalf of Tenant, without, in each case, the prior written consent of Landlord (all of the foregoing are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as **"Transfers"** and any person to whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter sometimes referred to as a **"Transferee").** Without limiting the foregoing, any agreement pursuant to which: (x) Tenant is relieved from the obligation to pay, or a third party agrees to pay on Tenant's behalf, all or any portion of the Basic Rent or Additional Rent under this Lease; and/or (y) a third party undertakes or is granted by or on behalf of Tenant the right to assign or attempt to assign this Lease or sublet or attempt to sublet all or any portion of the Premises, shall for all purposes hereof be deemed to be a Transfer of this Lease and subject to the provisions of this **Article 6.** A Transfer under this **Article 6** shall also include a sale or other transfer (by one or more transfers) of any of the following: the voting stock, partnership interests, membership or other equity interests in Tenant (or any other mechanism such as the issuance of additional stock or the creation of additional partnership or membership interests) which results in a change of control of Tenant or a sale or other transfer (in one or more transfers) of fifty percent (50%) or more of the assets of Tenant, as if such transfer were an assignment of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if equity interests in Tenant at any time are or become traded on a national securities exchange (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), the transfer of equity interests in Tenant on a national securities exchange shall not be deemed an assignment within the meaning of this Article; provided, however, that if Tenant is a corporation the outstanding stock of which is listed on a national securities exchange, then any private purchase or buyout of stock shall be deemed a Transfer under this **Article 6.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord's consent shall not be required under **Section 6.l(a)** and **Section 6.4** shall not apply to either (x) transactions with an entity into or with which Tenant is merged or consolidated, or to which all or substantially all of Tenant's assets are transferred, or (y) transactions with an entity that acquires, directly or indirectly, the voting stock, partnership interests, membership or other equity interests in Tenant which results in a change of control of Tenant; or (z) transactions with any entity which controls or is controlled by Tenant or is under common control with Tenant (a **"Tenant Affiliate,"** and collectively with clauses (x) and (y), **"Permitted Transferees,"** and each, a **"Permitted Transferee");** provided and only on condition that in any such event:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;With respect to any transfer under clauses (x) or (y) above, if the transferee is a subsidiary of a private equity, venture capital or similar buyout fund (a **"Financial Buyer"),** then the direct holding company of such subsidiary shall deliver to Landlord a guaranty in the same form and substance as the guaranty pursuant to which it

guarantees the payment and performance of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease **("New Guaranty")** and (y) if the transferee is not a Financial Buyer, then the ultimate parent company of the Asset Transferee shall deliver a New Guaranty

If Landlord fails to respond to Tenant's Transfer Notice within such thirty (30) day period, then Tenant may send Landlord a reminder notice setting forth such failure containing the following sentence at the top of such notice in bold, capitalized font at least fourteen (14) points in size: **"LANDLORD'S FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS NOTICE WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS SHALL RESULT IN LANDLORD'S DEEMED APPROVAL OF TENANT'S PROPOSED TRANSFER"** (the **"Transfer Reminder Notice").** Any such Transfer Reminder Notice shall include a complete copy of the original Transfer and all backup documents and all other information required by this Lease.

Any consent by Landlord to a particular Transfer or other act for which Landlord's consent is required under **paragraph (a)** of **Section 6.1** shall not in any way diminish the prohibition stated in **paragraph (a)** of **Section 6.1** as to any further such Transfer or other act or the continuing liability of the original named Tenant. No Transfer hereunder shall relieve Tenant from its obligations hereunder, and Tenant shall remain fully and primarily liable therefor. Landlord may revoke any consent by Landlord to a particular Transfer if the Transfer does not provide that the Transferee agrees to be independently bound by and upon all of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions set forth in this Lease on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed, except that subtenants shall not be subject to the covenant to pay Basic Rent or Additional Rent under this Lease, except as set forth in the applicable Sublease. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, Tenant shall be fully released from all liability thereafter arising under this Lease following an assignment of this Lease that is either (a) consented to by Landlord or (b) to a Permitted Transferee; provided and on condition that such Transferee, whether or not a Permitted Transferee, shall satisfy the Tangible Net Worth and other financial requirements under **Section 6.l(b).**

Such payments shall be made on the date the corresponding payments under this Lease are due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section shall impose no obligation on Landlord to consent to an assignment of this Lease or a subletting of all or a portion of the Premises.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Intentionally Omitted.</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Further Requirements.</u>** Tenant shall reimburse Landlord on demand, as Additional Rent, for any reasonable and actual out-of-pocket costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by Landlord in connection with any actual or proposed assignment or sublease or other act described in **paragraph (a)** of **Section 6.1,** whether or not consummated, including the costs of making investigations as to the acceptability of the proposed assignee or subtenant; provided that Tenant's reimbursement costs shall be limited to

$5,000.00 per Transfer request, provided that such consent is based on Landlord's standard form of consent with only reasonable and customary comments and without any amendments or modifications required to this Lease. Any sublease to which Landlord gives its consent shall not be valid unless and until Tenant and the sublessee execute a consent agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its reasonable discretion and a fully executed counterpart of such sublease has been delivered to Landlord. It shall be a further condition to the effectiveness of any Transfer that Tenant shall have cured any Event of Default prior to the effective date of such Transfer. Any sublease shall provide that: (i) the term of the sublease ends no later than one day before the last day of the Term of this Lease; (ii) such sublease is subject and subordinate to this Lease; (iii) Landlord may enforce the provisions of the sublease, including collection of rents; and (iv) in the event of termination of this Lease or reentry or repossession of the Premises by Landlord, Landlord may, at its sole discretion and option, take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublessor, under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord's option, attorn to Landlord, but nevertheless Landlord shall not (A) be liable for any previous act or omission of Tenant under such sublease; (B) be subject to any defense or offset previously accrued in favor of the subtenant against Tenant; or (C) be bound by any previous modification of such sublease made without Landlord's written consent or by any previous prepayment of more than one month's rent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**9.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Tenant's Payment of Operating Expenses.</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as a Direct Expense Charge, an amount equal to Tenant's Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses, such amount to be apportioned for any portion of an Operating Year in which the Commencement Date falls or the Term of this Lease ends.

The monthly amount so to be paid to Landlord shall be sufficient to provide Landlord by the end of each Operating Year a sum equal to Tenant's required payment, as reasonably estimated by Landlord from time to time during each Operating Year, on account of Operating Expenses for such Operating Year. After the end of each Operating Year, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a reasonably detailed accounting of Operating Expenses for such Operating Year, and Landlord shall certify to the

The failure of Landlord to timely furnish a statement for any Operating Year shall not prejudice Landlord from enforcing its rights under this Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be responsible for Tenant's Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses attributable to any Operating Year which are first billed to Tenant more than twelve (12) months following the expiration of any such Operating Year. Except with respect to the management fee and any amortized costs for Operating Expenses incurred in any prior Operating Year, in no event shall payments to Landlord for Operating Expenses in any Operating Year result in Landlord receiving from Tenant more than one hundred percent (100%) of the actual Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord for such Operating Year.

If Tenant timely sends a notice to Landlord disputing the accounting received from Landlord, Tenant may, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, undertake an audit of such of Landlord's books as are directly relevant to the Operating Expense accounting for the Operating Year in question, provided and on condition that (i) there is then no uncured Event of Default under this Lease, (ii) Tenant has made all payments of Direct Expense Charges billed or invoiced by Landlord as of the date of the audit, (iii) the audit is performed only by Tenant's employees, internal accounting department or an independent certified public accounting firm reasonably approved by Landlord and whose fee or other compensation is fixed by contract and is in no manner computed or determined based upon the results of the audit, (iv) both Tenant and its examiners execute and deliver to Landlord a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Landlord whereby such parties expressly agree to maintain the results of such audit in strict confidence, and (v) such audit is commenced and completed and the results thereof delivered to Landlord within sixty (60) days following the date Landlord makes its books available to Tenant. If Tenant fails to timely deliver a dispute notice to Landlord, or fails to complete its audit and deliver the results thereof to Landlord within the applicable sixty (60) day period, then, in either of such events, Landlord's accounting shall be binding and conclusive upon Tenant for all purposes of this Lease. If it is finally agreed by the parties that Landlord has overstated Tenant's share of excess Operating Expenses, Landlord shall credit the amount of such overstatement against the monthly installments of Direct Expense Charges next due under this Lease (or refund such amount to Tenant if the Term has ended and Tenant has no further obligations to Landlord under this Lease). If it is finally determined and agreed by the parties that Landlord has

------

overstated Tenant's Proportionate Share of Expense Increases by more than five percent (5%) in the aggregate, then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable costs of Tenant's audit. If the audit demonstrates that Landlord has not overstated Direct Expense Charges, then Landlord may invoice Tenant for any amount by which Tenant's Direct Expense Charges under this **Section 9.2** was understated, which invoice shall be payable by Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Tenant Insurance.</u>** Tenant agrees to maintain, at Tenant's expense, in full force from the date upon which Tenant first enters the Premises for any reason, throughout the Term of this Lease, and thereafter so long as Tenant is in occupancy of any part of the Premises, (a) a policy of commercial general liability and property damage insurance (including broad form contractual liability, independent contractor's hazard and completed operations coverage) in an amount at least equal to Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence and Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000) annual aggregate, or such greater amounts as Landlord in its reasonable discretion shall from time to time request, under which Tenant is named as an insured and Landlord, and, at Landlord's request, Landlord's property manager, any Superior Mortgagee and Superior Lessor, and such other persons as Landlord reasonably may request are named as additional insureds, (b) special form (formerly known as "all-risk") property insurance on a "replacement cost" basis, insuring Tenant's Removable Property and any alterations, additions and improvements located from time to time in the Premises, whether made by Tenant pursuant to **Article 5** or otherwise existing in the Premises as of the Commencement Date (such alterations, additions and improvements collectively the **"Improvements"),** (c) workers' compensation insurance with statutory limits, (d) employer's liability insurance with the following limits: bodily injury by disease per person One Million Dollars ($1,000,000); bodily injury by accident policy limit One Million Dollars ($1,000,000); bodily injury by disease policy limit One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), (e) business automobile liability insurance including owned, hired and non-owned automobiles, in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit per occurrence, with such commercially reasonable increases as Landlord may require from time to time, (f) business interruption insurance equal to not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the estimated gross earnings (as defined in the standard form of business interruption insurance policy) of Tenant at the Premises, which insurance shall be issued on an "all risks" basis (or its equivalent); and (g) umbrella/excess liability insurance in an amount not less than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00) per occurrence and in the aggregate on a following form basis of the underlying commercial general liability, automobile liability and employer's liability policies with policy forms no more restrictive than the underlying policies. Tenant shall also maintain pollution legal liability insurance, which coverage shall include bodily injury, sickness, disease, death or mental anguish or shock sustained by any person; property damage including physical injury to or destruction of tangible property including the resulting loss of use thereof, clean-up costs, and the loss of use of tangible property that has not been physically injured or destroyed; and defense costs, charges and expenses incurred in the investigation, adjustment or defense of claims for such compensatory damages. Coverage shall apply to both sudden and non-sudden pollution conditions including the discharge, dispersal, release or escape of smoke, vapors, soot, fumes, acids, alkalis, toxic chemicals, liquids or gases, waste materials or other irritants, contaminants or pollutants into or upon land, the atmosphere or any watercourse or body of water.

If Tenant fails to have a current and valid certificate of such policies on deposit with Landlord at all times during the Tem1 and such failure is not cured within three (3) Business Days following Tenant's receipt of notice thereof from Landlord, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to obtain such an insurance policy, and Tenant shall be obligated to pay Landlord the amount of the premiums applicable to such insurance within ten (10) days after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's request for payment thereof. Tenant's insurance policies shall not include deductibles in excess of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Tenant's Risk.</u>** Tenant agrees to use and occupy the Premises and to use such other portions of the Property as Tenant is herein given the right to use at Tenant's own risk. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees or contractors for any damage, injury, loss, compensation, or claim (including, but not limited to, claims for the interruption of or loss to Tenant's business) based on, arising out of or resulting from any cause whatsoever, including, but not limited to, repairs to any portion of the Premises or the Property, any fire, robbery, theft, mysterious disappearance and/or any other crime or casualty, the actions of any other tenants of the Building or of any other person or persons, or any leakage in any part or portion of the Premises or the Building, or from water, rain or snow that may leak into, or flow from any part of the Premises or the Building, or from drains, pipes or plumbing fixtures in the Building, unless due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord's agents, contractors or employees. Any goods, property or personal effects stored or placed in or about the Premises shall be at the sole risk of Tenant, and neither Landlord nor Landlord's insurers shall in any manner be held responsible therefor. Landlord shall not be responsible or liable to Tenant, or to those claiming by, through or under Tenant, for any loss or damage that may be occasioned by or through the acts or omissions of persons occupying adjoining premises or any part of the premises adjacent to or connecting with the Premises or any part of the Property or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be released from liability for any injury, loss, damages or liability to the extent arising from any gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its servants, employees or agents acting within the scope of their authority on or about the Premises; provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord, its servants, employees or agents have any liability to Tenant based on any loss with respect to or interruption in the operation of Tenant's business. The provisions of this **Section 10.3** shall be applicable from and after the execution of this Lease and until the end of the Tenn of this Lease, and during any additional period as Tenant may use or be in occupancy of any part of the Premises or of the Property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Landlord's Insurance.</u>** Landlord shall maintain, as a part of Operating Expenses, special form property insurance on the Building in such amounts and subject to such

------

deductibles as Landlord may reasonably determine; provided that such coverage includes a policy of commercial general liability insurance and property damage insurance in an amount at least equal to the full replacement cost of the Building. Such insurance shall be maintained with an insurance company selected by Landlord or a Superior Mortgagee, and payment for losses thereunder shall be made solely to Landlord subject to the rights of the Superior Mortgagee from time to time. Additionally Landlord may maintain such additional insurance, including, without limitation, earthquake insurance, terrorism insurance, flood insurance, liability insurance and/or rent insurance, as Landlord may in its sole discretion elect; provided, however, that any deductible incurred by Landlord in connection with an earthquake shall be amortized over the remainder of the useful life of the items repaired or reconstructed from the proceeds of such insurance, with the amortized portion of such deductible applicable to a given calendar year to be included as an Approved Capital Expenditure within Operating Expenses for such calendar year. The cost of all such additional insurance shall also be part of the Operating Expenses. Any or all of Landlord's insurance may be provided by blanket coverage maintained by Landlord or any affiliate of Landlord under its insurance program for its portfolio of properties or by Landlord's or any affiliate of Landlord's program of self-insurance. and in such event Operating Expenses shall include the portion of the reasonable cost of blanket insurance or self-insurance that is allocated to the Building. Landlord shall not be obligated to insure, and shall not assume any liability of risk of loss for, the Improvements in the Premises or Tenant's Removable Property, including any such property or work of Tenant's subtenants or occupants. Landlord will also have no obligation to carry insurance against, nor be responsible for, any loss suffered by Tenant, subtenants or other occupants due to interruption of Tenant's or any subtenant's or occupant's business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.5 <u>Waiver of Subrogation.</u>** Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant each hereby waives any and all rights of recovery, claim, action, or cause of action against the other, its agents, employees, licensees, or invitees for any loss or damage to or at the Premises or the Property or any personal property of such party therein or thereon by reason of fire, the elements, or any other cause which is covered, or would have been covered, by the insurance coverages required to be maintained by Landlord and Tenant, respectively, under this Lease, regardless of cause or origin, including omission of the other party hereto, its agents, employees, licensees, or invitees. Landlord and Tenant covenant that no insurer shall hold any right of subrogation against either of such parties with respect thereto. The parties hereto agree that any and all such insurance policies required to be carried by either shall be endorsed with a subrogation clause, substantially as follows: *'This insurance shall not be invalidated should the insured waive, in writing prior to a loss, any and all right of recovery against any party for loss occurring to the Property described therein,*" and shall provide that such party's insurer waives any right of recovery against the other party in connection with any such loss or damage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**11.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Landlord's Right of Termination.</u>** If the Premises, the Building or the Property are substantially damaged (the term "substantially damaged" meaning damage of such a character that the same cannot, in the ordinary course, reasonably be expected to be repaired

------

within six months after the date of discovery of the damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of overtime or other premiums)) by fire or other casualty (each, a **"Casualty"),** then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving notice of Landlord's election so to do within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such Casualty, whereupon this Lease shall terminate thirty (30) days after the date of such notice with the same force and effect as if such date were the date originally established as the expiration date hereof. In no event shall Landlord have any liability for damages to Tenant for inconvenience, annoyance or interruption of business arising from any Casualty. Additionally, Landlord may elect not to repair and/or rebuild the Premises, Building and/or Property, and instead terminate this Lease, by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within ninety (90) days after the date of discovery of the damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant thirty (30) days to vacate the Premises, if one or more of the following conditions is present: (i) the damage is not fully covered by Landlord's insurance policies required under this Lease; or (ii) the Superior Mortgagee does not permit adequate insurance proceeds to be applied to the rebuilding or repair of the Building or Property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**11.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Restoration; Tenant's Right of Termination</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If the Building or the Premises shall be partially or totally damaged or destroyed by a Casualty and if this Lease is not terminated as provided in this **Article 11,** then (i) Landlord shall repair and restore the Building and the Premises (but excluding Tenant's Removable Property and the Improvements **("Landlord's Restoration Work")** with reasonable dispatch (but Landlord shall not be required to perform the same on an overtime or premium pay basis) after notice to Landlord of the Casualty and the collection of the insurance proceeds attributable to such Casualty, and (ii) Tenant shall repair and restore in accordance with **Section 5.2** all of Tenant's Removable Property and the Improvements **("Tenant's Restoration Work")** with reasonable dispatch after the Casualty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if in Landlord's sole discretion it would be appropriate for safety reasons, health reasons or the efficient operation or restoration of the Building or the Premises for Landlord to perform all or a portion of Tenant's Restoration Work on behalf of Tenant, then (x) Landlord shall give Tenant a written notice specifying the portion of Tenant's Restoration Work to be performed by Landlord (the **"Specified Restoration Work"),** (y) Landlord shall perform the Specified Restoration Work, and (z) Tenant shall pay to Landlord within thirty (30) days following the giving of Landlord's written demand therefor (or Landlord shall retain from the insurance proceeds paid to Landlord in accordance with the last sentence of this **Section 11.2(a))** the cost of such Specified Restoration Work. The proceeds of insurance covering Tenant's Removable Property and the Improvements shall be paid to Landlord, and, unless Landlord restores Tenant's Removable Property and the Improvements as part of the Specified Restoration Work, upon the completion of the repair and restoration of Tenant's Removable Property and the Improvements and the reoccupancy of the Premises by Tenant, Landlord shall disburse to Tenant the proceeds of insurance maintained by Tenant covering Tenant's Removable Property and the Improvements up to the amount so expended by Tenant.

(b} Landlord shall not carry any insurance on Tenant's Removable Property or on the Improvements (including without limitation any Landlord's Work performed in connection with this Lease) that constitute part of Tenant's Restoration Work and shall not be

------

obligated to repair or replace Tenant's Removable Property or such Improvements (whether or not installed by or at the expense of Landlord). Tenant shall look solely to its insurance for recovery of any damage to or loss of Tenant's Removable Property and any Improvements. Tenant shall notify Landlord promptly of any casualty in the Premises. In the event of a partial or total destruction of the Premises, Tenant shall as soon as practicable (but no later than ten

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) Business Days after receiving written notice from Landlord) remove any and all of Tenant's Removable Property from the Premises or the portion thereof destroyed, as the case may be, and if Tenant does not promptly so remove Tenant's Removable Property, Landlord, at Tenant's expense, may remove Tenant's Removable Property to a public warehouse for deposit or retain the same in its own possession and at its discretion may sell the same at either public auction or private sale, the proceeds of which shall be applied first to the expenses of removal, storage and sale, second to any sums owed by Tenant to Landlord, with any balance remaining to the paid to Tenant; if the expenses of such removal, storage and sale shall exceed the proceeds of any sale, Tenant shall pay such excess to Landlord upon demand. Tenant shall be solely responsible for arranging for any visits to the Premises by Tenant's insurance adjuster that may be desired by Tenant prior to the removal of Tenant's Removable Property by Tenant or Landlord, as provided in this **Section 11.2(b),** or the performance by Landlord of Landlord's Restoration Work or the Specified Restoration Work and Landlord shall be under no obligation to delay the performance of same, nor shall Landlord have any liability to Tenant in the event that Tenant fails to do so. Tenant shall promptly permit Landlord access to the Premises for the purpose of performing Landlord's Restoration Work and, if applicable, the Specified Restoration Work.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any Casualty affecting the Premises, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written estimate from a reputable contractor, architect or engineer designated by Landlord as to the probable length of time that will be necessary to substantially complete Landlord's Restoration Work. If such time estimate exceeds twelve (12) months from the date of such Casualty, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Landlord thereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of such estimate (time being of the essence with respect to the giving of such notice by Tenant). In addition, if Landlord fails to complete repairs to the Premises within the longer of (i) the estimated period of Landlord's Restoration Work set forth in Landlord's original notice to Tenant and (ii) twelve months from the date of such Casualty (as such period shall be extended for any delay caused by Force Majeure), then Tenant shall have the right to terminate the Lease upon written notice delivered to Landlord within ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of such period (as so extended for Force Majeure) and prior to Landlord's completion of such repairs. If Tenant is entitled pursuant to the terms of this **Section 11.2(c)** to terminate this Lease and Tenant fails to deliver a termination notice to Landlord within the thirty (30) day period set forth herein, Tenant will be deemed to have waived Tenant's rights under this **Section 11.2(c)** to terminate the Lease on account of such Casualty. The provisions of this Section are in lieu of any statutory termination provisions allowable in the event of a Casualty.

In addition, if the Casualty occurs in the last twelve (12) months of the Term and Tenant is prevented from using the Premises for ninety (90) consecutive days or more, Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If this Lease is terminated under any of the provisions of this **Article XI** as a result of a Casualty, Landlord shall be entitled to retain for its benefit the proceeds of

------

insurance maintained by Tenant on the Improvements. This **Section 11.2** shall be deemed an express agreement governing any damage or destruction of the Premises by fire or other casualty, and any law providing for a contingency in the absence of an express agreement, now or hereafter in force, shall have no application.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**11.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Abatement of Rent.</u>** If the Premises is damaged by a Casualty, provided no Event of Default exists, Basic Rent and Direct Expense Charges payable by Tenant shall abate proportionately for the period from the date of such fire or other casualty until the earlier of (a) the date that Landlord substantially completes Landlord's Restoration Work (provided that if Landlord would have completed Landlord's Restoration Work at an earlier date but for Tenant having failed to cooperate with Landlord in effecting such Work or collecting insurance proceeds, then the Premises shall be deemed to have been repaired and restored on such earlier date and the abatement shall cease), or (b) the date Tenant or other occupant reoccupies any portion of the Premises (in which case the Basic Rent and Direct Expense Charges allocable to such reoccupied portion shall be payable by Tenant from the date of such occupancy). Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Lease to the contrary, (i) there shall be no abatement with respect to any portion of the Premises which has not been rendered untenantable by reason of fire or other casualty and which is accessible, whether or not other portions of the Premises are untenantable, and (ii) any abatement of Basic Rent or Direct Expense Charges applicable to any portion of the Premises which was rendered untenantable by reason of a casualty shall cease on the earliest of the dates referred to in clauses (a) or (b) of the preceding sentence provided such portion is accessible, whether or not other portions of the Premises remain untenantable; provided that, in regards to both clauses (i) and (ii) above, all Basic Rent and Direct Expense Charges shall be abated regardless of whether a portion of the Premises is accessible following a casualty if, in Tenant's commercially reasonable discretion, Tenant cannot reasonably operate its business in such accessible portion and does not in fact conduct business in the Premises. Landlord's determination of the date Landlord's Restoration Work to the Premises shall have been substantially completed shall be controlling unless Tenant disputes same by notice to Landlord given within ten (10) days after such determination by Landlord, and pending resolution of such dispute, Tenant shall pay Basic Rent and Direct Expense Charges in accordance with Landlord's determination.. Prior to Landlord commencing Landlord's Restoration Work, Tenant shall obtain from all applicable governmental authorities all licenses, permits, and approvals that may be required to permit Landlord to enter the Premises and/or to commence any restoration work therein (collectively referred to herein as **"Hazardous Materials Clearances").** Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, if any Hazardous Materials Clearances are required, then any abatement of Basic Rent or of Direct Expense Charges provided under this Lease in connection with a fire or other casualty shall accrue only from and after the date on which Tenant obtains such Hazardous Materials Clearances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if by reason of any act or omission by Tenant, any subtenant or any of their respective partners, directors, officers, servants, employees, agents or contractors, Landlord, any Mortgagee shall be unable to collect all of the insurance proceeds (including, without limitation, rent insurance proceeds) applicable to the casualty, then, without prejudice to any other remedies which may be available against Tenant, the abatement of Basic Rent or of Direct Expense Charges shall be reduced by such uncollected insurance amount.

In no event shall Landlord have any liability for damages to Tenant for inconvenience, annoyance or interruption of business arising from such exercise of the power of eminent domain.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If any part of the Building or any material portion of the Property is taken by any exercise of the right of eminent domain, then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease (even if Landlord's entire interest in the Premises may have been divested) by giving notice of Landlord's election so to do within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of the effective date of such taking, whereupon this Lease shall terminate thirty (30) days after the date of such notice with the same force and effect as if such date were the date originally established for the expiration of the Term of this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If this Lease shall not be terminated pursuant to **Section 11.4(b**), Landlord shall thereafter use due diligence to restore the Premises (excluding any Alterations made by Tenant pursuant to **Section 5.2)** to proper condition for Tenant's use and occupation, provided that Landlord's obligation shall be limited to the amount of compensation recoverable by Landlord from the taking authority. If, for any reason, such restoration shall not be substantially completed within six (6) months after the expiration of the ninety (90) day period referred to in **Section 11.4(b)** (which six month period may be extended for such periods of time as Landlord is prevented from proceeding with or completing such restoration for any cause beyond Landlord's reasonable control, but in no event for more than an additional three (3) months), Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Landlord thereof within thirty (30) days after the expiration of such period (as so extended). Upon the giving of such notice, this Lease shall cease and come to an end thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice, without further liability or obligation on the part of either party unless, within such thirty (30) day period, Landlord substantially completes such restoration. Such right of termination shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity for Landlord's failure so to complete such restoration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Landlord shall have and hereby reserves and excepts, and Tenant hereby grants and assigns to Landlord, all rights to recover for damages to the Property and the leasehold interest hereby created, and to compensation accrued or hereafter to accrue by reason of such taking, and by way of confirming the foregoing, Tenant hereby grants and assigns, and covenants with Landlord to grant and assign to Landlord, all rights to such damages or compensation, and covenants to deliver such further assignments and assurances thereof as Landlord may from time to time request, and Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord its attorney in fact to execute and deliver in Tenant's name all such assignments and assurances. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to prevent Tenant from prosecuting in any condemnation proceedings a claim for the value of (i) the cost of Tenant's moving and relocation expenses, (ii) any of Tenant's Removable Property installed in the Premises by Tenant at Tenant's expense, (iii) for relocation expenses, (iv) the cost of any Alterations to the Premises paid for by Tenant, and (iv) loss of business or goodwill, provided that such action shall not affect the amount of compensation otherwise recoverable by Landlord from the taking authority.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**12.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Holding Over.</u>** If Tenant or anyone claiming by, through or under Tenant shall remain in possession of all or any part of the Premises (which shall include a failure by Tenant to remove any Tenant's Removable Property or Alterations which Landlord notified Tenant were to be removed at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term) after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease, such holding over shall be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a Basic Rent equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Basic Rent in effect for the last rental period of the Tenn for the first thirty (30) days of any holdover and thereafter one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Basic Rent in effect for the last rental period of the Term, plus Direct Expense Charges and other Additional Rent herein provided (prorated on a daily basis). In addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, costs and damages, direct and/or indirect, sustained by reason of any such holding over that continues for more than thirty (30) days after such expiration or earlier termination, including, without limitation, claims made by and loss of any succeeding tenant arising out of such failure to timely surrender possession in the condition required under this Lease. In all other respects, such holding over shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease as far as applicable (and excluding any extension, expansion or rights of first offer of tenant) in the Lease. Nothing contained in this **Article 12** shall be construed as a consent by Landlord to any holding over by Tenant, and Landlord shall have the right to immediately terminate such holding over pursuant to applicable Law. The provisions of this **Article 12** shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law.

Tenant shall remove all of Tenant's Removable Property, all signs installed by or on behalf of Tenant in or on the Premises and the Building, all lines and other wiring and cabling installed by Tenant prior to or during the Term. Tenant shall repair any damage to the Premises or the Building caused by such removal and restore the affected area to its condition prior to the installation thereof. Any Tenant's Removable Property which shall remain in the Building or on the Premises after the expiration or termination of the Term of this Lease shall be deemed conclusively to have been abandoned, and either may be retained by Landlord as its property or may be disposed of in such manner as Landlord may see fit, at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Upon written request by Tenant given at least six (6) months' prior to the expiration of this Lease, Tenant and Landlord shall conduct

Landlord shall have the unrestricted right to deliver the Surrender Plan and any report by Landlord 's environmental consultant with respect to the surrender of the Premises to third parties. Such third parties and the Landlord Parties shall be entitled to rely on the Surrender Plan.

Tenant's obligations under this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.

**<u>RIGHTS OF MORTGAGEES; TRANSFER OF TITLE</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**13.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Rights of Mortgagees or Ground Lessor.</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This Lease, and all rights of Tenant hereunder, are and shall be subject and subordinate to any ground or underlying leases of the Property and to all renewals, extensions, modifications and replacements thereof, and to all mortgages, deeds of trust or similar encumbrances which may now or hereafter affect the Property, whether or not such mortgages or other encumbrances shall also cover other lands and/or buildings, and to each and every advance made or hereafter to be made under such mortgages and other encumbrances, and to all renewals, modifications, replacements, extensions and consolidations of such mortgages and other encumbrances. This Section shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any instrument that Landlord, the lessor under any such lease or the holder of any such mortgage or other encumbrance or any of their respective successors in interest may reasonably request to evidence such subordination. Any lease to which this Lease is, at the time referred to, subject and subordinate is herein called **"Superior Lease"** and the lessor of a Superior Lease or its successor in interest at the time referred to, is herein called **"Superior Lessor";** and any mortgage or other encumbrance to which this Lease is, at the time referred to, subject and subordinate, is herein called **"Superior Mortgage"** and the holder of a Superior Mortgage, or its successor in interest at the time referred to, is herein called **"Superior Mortgagee."** If any Superior Mortgagee, shall so elect, this Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder, shall be superior in right to the rights of such holder, with the same force and effect as if this Lease had been executed, delivered and recorded, or a statutory notice hereof recorded, prior to the execution, delivery and recording of any such Superior Mortgage. The election of any such Superior Mortgagee shall become effective upon either notice from such Superior Mortgagee to Tenant in the same fashion as notices from Landlord to Tenant are to be given hereunder or by the recording in the appropriate registry or recorder's office of an instrument in which the Superior Mortgagee subordinates its rights under such Superior Mortgage to this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee or the nominee or designee of any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Lease, whether through possession or foreclosure action or delivery of a new lease or deed, or otherwise, then at the request of such party so succeeding to Landlord's rights (herein called

**"Successor Landlord"),** Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such Successor Landlord as Tenant's landlord under this Lease and shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument that such Successor Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such attornment. Upon such attornment, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between the

------

Successor Landlord and Tenant upon all of the terms, conditions and covenants as are set forth in this Lease, except that the Successor Landlord shall not be (i) liable in any way to Tenant for any act or omission, neglect or default on the part of Landlord under this Lease, (ii) responsible for any monies owing by or on deposit with Landlord to the credit of Tenant, (iii) subject to any counterclaim or setoff which theretofore accrued to Tenant against Landlord, (iv) bound by any modification of this Lease subsequent to such Superior Lease or Superior Mortgage, or by any previous prepayment of fixed rent for more than one (1) month, which was not approved in writing by the Superior Lessor or the Superior Mortgagee thereto, (v) liable to the Tenant beyond the Successor Landlord's interest in the Property and the rents, income, receipts, revenues, issues and profits issuing from such Property, (vi) responsible for the performance of any work to be done by the Landlord under this Lease to render the Premises ready for occupancy by the Tenant, (vii) liable for the payment of any improvement allowance or similar amount owing to Tenant on account of the performance of any alterations or leasehold improvements to the Premises or the Building, or (viii) required to remove any person occupying the Premises or any part thereof, except if such person claims by, through or under the Successor Landlord.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this **Article 13,** as a condition to the subordination of this Lease to a future Superior Mortgage or future Superior Lease, such Superior Mortgagee or Superior Lessor shall execute a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in the standard form customarily employed by such Superior Mortgagee or Superior Lessor with commercially reasonable provisions requested by Tenant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In no event shall the acquisition of Landlord's interest in the Property by a purchaser which, simultaneously therewith, leases Landlord's entire interest in the Property back to the seller thereof be treated as an assumption by operation of law or otherwise, of Landlord's obligations hereunder, but Tenant shall look solely to such seller-lessee, and its successors from time to time in title, for performance of Landlord's obligations hereunder. In any such event, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to the lease to such purchaser. For all purposes, such seller-lessee, and its successors in title, shall be the Landlord hereunder unless and until Landlord's position shall have been assumed by such purchaser-lessor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Except as provided in **paragraph (b)** of this Section, in the event of any transfer of title to the Property by Landlord, Landlord shall thereafter be entirely freed and relieved from the performance and observance of all covenants and obligations hereunder.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**13.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Notice to Mortgagee.</u>** Tenant shall not seek to enforce any remedy it may have for any default on the part of Landlord without first giving any Superior Mortgagee and Superior Lessor, as applicable, written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, specifying the default in reasonable detail, and affording such Superior Mortgagee and Superior Lessor, as applicable, (i) a reasonable opportunity to perform Landlord's obligations hereunder (but not less than thirty (30) days), if such default can be cured without such Superior Mortgagee or Superior Lessor, as applicable, taking possession of the mortgaged or leased estate, or (ii) time to obtain possession of the mortgaged or leased estate and then to cure such default of Landlord, if such default cannot be cured without such Superior Mortgagee or Superior Lessor or taking possession of the mortgaged or leased estate. The curing of any of Landlord's defaults by a Superior Mortgagee or Superior Lessor shall be treated as performance by Landlord.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Landlord may terminate Tenant's right of possession without terminating this Lease upon written notice to Tenant to such effect, in which event

Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any other notice and cure period set forth herein, Landlord may exercise its rights under this **Section 14.2(a)(iv)** without prior notice or upon shorter notice than otherwise required hereunder (and as may be reasonable under the circumstances) in the event of any one or more of the following circumstances is present: (i) there exists a reasonable risk of prosecution of Landlord unless such obligation is performed sooner than the stated cure period; (ii) there exists an emergency arising out of the defaulted obligation; or (iii) the Tenant has failed to obtain insurance required by this Lease, or such insurance has been canceled by the insurer without being timely replaced by Tenant, as required herein; and

It shall not constitute a constructive or other termination of this Lease or Tenant's right to possession if Landlord (a) exercises its right to repair or maintain the Premises, (b) performs any unperformed obligations of Tenant, (c) stores or removes Tenant's property from the Premises after Tenant's dispossession, (d) attempts to relet, or, in fact, does relet, the Premises or (e) seeks the appointment of a receiver on Landlord's initiative to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease.

Tenant shall pay such current damages to Landlord monthly on the days which the Basic Rent would have been payable hereunder if this Lease had not been terminated.

Tenant, for itself and any and all persons claiming through or under Tenant, including its creditors, upon the termination of this Lease and of the term of this Lease in accordance with the terms hereof, or in the event of entry of judgment for the recovery of the possession of the Premises in any action or proceeding, or if Landlord shall enter the Premises by process of law or otherwise, hereby waives any right of redemption provided or permitted by any statute, law or decision now or hereafter in force, and does hereby waive, surrender and give up all rights or privileges which it or they may or might have under and by reason of any present or future law or decision, to redeem the Premises or for a continuation of this Lease for the term of this Lease hereby demised after having been dispossessed or ejected therefrom by process of law, or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition to any other remedies under this **Article 14,** Tenant shall immediately become liable to Landlord for all damages proximately caused by Tenant's breach of its obligations under this Lease, including all costs Landlord incurs in reletting (or attempting to relet) the Premises or any part thereof, including, without limitation, brokers' commissions, expenses of cleaning, altering and preparing the Premises for new tenants, legal fees and all other like expenses properly chargeable against the Premises and the rental received therefrom and like costs, provided that nothing set forth in this **Section 14.2(t)** shall be construed to impose upon Landlord any obligation to relet the Premises or to mitigate its damages hereunder, except to the extent expressly set forth in this Lease below or as required under applicable Law. If Landlord does elect to relet the Premises (or any portion thereof), such reletting may be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining Term, and upon such

terms and conditions as Landlord deems appropriate, in its sole and absolute discretion, and Tenant shall have no interest in any sums collected by Landlord in connection with such reletting except to the extent expressly set forth herein. If the Premises or any part thereof shall be relet in combination with any other space, then proper apportionment on a per-square foot basis shall be made of the rent received from such reletting and of the expenses of such reletting. If Landlord shall succeed in reletting the Premises during the period in which Tenant is paying monthly rent damages as described in **Section 14.2(c),** Landlord shall credit Tenant with the net rents collected by Landlord from such reletting, after first deducting from the gross rents, as and when collected by Landlord, (A) all expenses incurred or paid by Landlord in collecting such rents, and (B) any theretofore unrecovered costs associated with the termination of this Lease or Landlord's reentry into the Premises, including any theretofore unrecovered expenses of reletting or other damages payable hereunder. If the Premises or any portion thereof be relet by Landlord for the unexpired portion of the Term before presentation of proof of such damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved upon such reletting shall, prima facie, constitute the fair and reasonable rental value for the Premises, or part thereof, so relet for the term of the reletting. Landlord shall not be liable in any way whatsoever for its failure or refusal to relet the Premises or, if the Premises or any part are relet, for its failure to collect the rent under such reletting, and no such refusal or failure to relet or failure to collect rent shall release or affect Tenant's liability for damages or otherwise under this Lease.

trustee shall make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for authority and approval to assume this Lease and enter into such assignment; (2) Adequate Assurance of Future Performance (as hereinafter defined) of all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, and (3) Landlord determines, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that the assignment of this Lease will not breach any other lease, or any mortgage, financing agreement, or other agreement relating to the Property by which Landlord or the Property is then bound (and Landlord shall not be required to obtain consents or waivers from any third party required under any lease, mortgage, financing agreement, or other such agreement by which Landlord is then bound). Landlord shall have the option, to be exercised by notice to Tenant or such trustee given at any time prior to the date the application is filed for court approval of the assumption and assignment of this Lease to the proposed assignee, to accept an assignment of this Lease upon the same terms and conditions and for the same consideration, if any, as the bona fide offer made by such proposed assignee, less any brokerage commissions which may be payable out of the consideration to be paid by such person for the assignment of this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For purposes only of paragraph (g) above, and in addition to any other requirements under the Bankruptcy Code, any future federal bankruptcy law and applicable case law, **"Adequate Assurance of Future Performance"** means at least the satisfaction of the following conditions, which Landlord and Tenant acknowledge to be commercially reasonable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the proposed assignee submitting a current financial statement, audited by a certified public accountant, that allows a net worth and working capital in amounts determined in the reasonable business judgment of Landlord to be sufficient to assure the future performance by the assignee of Tenant's obligation under this Lease; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if requested by Landlord in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, the proposed assignee obtaining a guarantee (in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord) from one or more persons who satisfy Landlord's standards of creditworthiness; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the proposed assignee is of a character and financial worth such as is in keeping with the standards of Landlord, and the purposes for which the proposed assignee intends to use the Premises are uses expressly permitted by and not prohibited by this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**14.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Additional Rent.</u>** If Tenant shall fail to pay when due any sums under this Lease designated as a Direct Expense Charge or other Additional Rent, Landlord shalt have the same rights and remedies as Landlord has hereunder for failure to pay Basic Rent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**14.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Remedying: Defaults.</u>** Landlord shall have the right, but shall not be required, to pay such sums or do any act which requires the expenditure of monies which may be necessary or appropriate by reason of an Event of Default of Tenant, and in the event of the exercise of such right by Landlord, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord forthwith upon demand all such sums, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate, as Additional Rent.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**14.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Remedies Cumulative.</u>** The specified remedies to which Landlord may resort hereunder are not intended to be exclusive of any remedies or means of redress to which Landlord may at any time be entitled lawfully, and Landlord may invoke any remedy (including the remedy of specific performance) allowed at law or in equity as if specific remedies were not herein provided for.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**14.6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Enforcement Costs.</u>** If either Landlord or Tenant should bring suit or arbitration against the other with respect to this Lease, then all costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party therein (including, without limitation, its actual appraisers', accountants', attorneys' and other professional fees, expenses and court costs), shall be paid by the other party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**14.7&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Waiver.</u>**

non-action on the part of the other, no matter how long the same may continue, shall never be a waiver by Tenant or Landlord, respectively, of any of the other's rights hereunder. Further, no waiver at any time of any of the provisions hereof by Landlord or Tenant shall be construed as a waiver of any of the other provisions hereof, and a waiver at any time of any of the provisions hereof shall not be construed as a waiver at any subsequent time of the same provisions. The consent or approval of Landlord or Tenant to or of any action by the other requiring such consent or approval shall not be construed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord's or Tenant's consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar act by the other.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any waiver by either party of any provisions of this Lease must be in a writing signed by the waiving party. In addition, Landlord's acceptance of any payment from Tenant after a termination of this Lease due to an Event of Default by Tenant shall not have the effect of reinstating this Lease, nor estop Landlord from exercising any of the rights and remedies granted to Landlord hereunder arising out of such Event of Default. No payment by Tenant or acceptance by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Basic Rent, Direct Expense Charges, Additional Rent and other sums due hereunder shall be deemed to be other than on account of the total amount due from Tenant to Landlord, to be applied in such order as Landlord deems appropriate. In no event shall any endorsement or statement on any check or accompanying any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction; and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such Basic Rent, Direct Expense Charges, Additional Rent or other sum and to pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**14.8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Letter of Credit</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tenant shall, simultaneously with the execution of this Lease by Tenant, deliver to Landlord an irrevocable letter of credit (the **"Letter of Credit")** which shall be held by Landlord in accordance with this **Section 14.8** and shall (A) be in the initial amount set forth in **Section 1.1;** (B) be issued on the form attached hereto as **Exhibit G** or other form approved by Landlord; (C) name Landlord as its beneficiary; and (D) be drawn on an FDIC insured financial institution reasonably satisfactory to Landlord **("Approved Issuer")** that satisfies both the Minimum Rating Agency Threshold and the Minimum Capital Threshold (as those terms are

------

defined below). The Letter of Credit (and any renewals or replacements thereof) shall be for a term of not less than one (1) year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The **"Minimum Rating Agency Threshold"** shall mean that the issuing bank has outstanding unsecured, uninsured and unguaranteed senior long-term indebtedness that is then rated (without regard to qualification of such rating by symbols such as "+" or"-" or numerical notation) "A2" or better by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. and/or "A" or better by Standard & Poor's Rating Services, or a comparable rating by a comparable national rating agency designated by Landlord in its discretion. The **"Minimum Capital Threshold"** shall mean that the issuing bank has combined capital, surplus and undivided profits of not less than

$10,000,000,000.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If the issuer of the Letter of Credit gives notice of its election not to renew such Letter of Credit for any additional period, Tenant shall be required to deliver a Substitute Letter of Credit (the **"Substitute Letter of Credit")** satisfying the conditions of this Section at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the term of such Letter of Credit. If the issuer of the Letter of Credit ceases to satisfy the applicable requirements which are necessary to maintain its status as an Approved Issuer, Tenant shall be required, not later than ten (10) Business Days after Landlord notifies Tenant of such failure, to deliver to Landlord a Substitute Letter of Credit from an Approved Issuer. Tenant agrees that it shall, from time to time, as necessary, whether as a result of a draw on the Letter of Credit by Landlord pursuant to the terms hereof or as a result of the expiration of the Letter of Credit then in effect, renew or replace the original and any subsequent Letter of Credit so that a Letter of Credit, in the amount required hereunder, is in effect until a date which is at least sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Term of this Lease. If Tenant fails to furnish such renewal or replacement at least sixty (60) days prior to the stated expiration date of the Letter of Credit then held by Landlord, Landlord may draw upon such Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds thereof (and such proceeds need not be segregated) as a cash security deposit pursuant to the terms of this Section. Any renewal or replacement of the original or any subsequent Letter of Credit shall meet the requirements for the original Letter of Credit as set forth above, except that such replacement or renewal shall be issued by an Approved Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Upon an Event of Default, or if any proceeding shall be instituted by or against Tenant pursuant to any of the provisions of any Act of Congress or State Law relating to bankruptcy, reorganizations, arrangements, compositions or other relief from creditors (and, in the case of any proceeding instituted against it, if Tenant shall fail to have such proceedings dismissed within sixty (60) days) or if Tenant is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent as a result of any such proceeding, Landlord at its sole option may draw down all or any portion of the Letter of Credit as may be required to pay Landlord's resulting damages as provided in this Lease. The balance of any Letter of Credit cash proceeds shall be held as a cash security deposit. Should the entire Letter of Credit, or any portion thereof, be drawn down by Landlord, Tenant shall, upon the written demand of Landlord, deliver a Substitute Letter of Credit in the amount drawn (less any cash proceeds then being held by Landlord) and Tenant's failure to do so within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such written demand shall constitute an additional Event of Default hereunder. The application of all or any part of the cash proceeds of the Letter of Credit to any obligation or Event of Default of Tenant under this Lease shall

------

not deprive Landlord of any other rights or remedies Landlord may have nor shall such application by Landlord constitute a waiver by Landlord.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the event that Landlord transfers its interest in the Premises, and upon no less than ten (10) Business Days' advance notice from and at no cost to Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an amendment to the Letter of Credit or a Substitute Letter of Credit naming Landlord's successor as the beneficiary thereof. Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant in executing any documents or providing any information requested by the Approved Issuer pursuant to the terms of the Letter of Credit in connection with any such transfer. If Tenant fails to deliver such amendment or replacement within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such written notice from Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to draw down the entire amount of the Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds thereof as a cash security deposit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Landlord shall hold the Letter of Credit and the balance of proceeds remaining after a draw on the Letter of Credit, as the case may be (hereinafter referred to collectively as the **"Security Deposit")** as security for Tenant's performance of all of its Lease obligations. After an Event of Default, Landlord may apply the Security Deposit, or any part thereof, to Landlord 's damages without prejudice to any other Landlord remedy. Landlord has no obligation to pay interest on the Security Deposit and may co-mingle the Security Deposit with Landlord' s funds. If Landlord conveys its interest under this Lease, the Security Deposit, or any part not applied previously, may be turned over to the grantee in which case Tenant shall look solely to the grantee for the proper application and return of the Security Deposit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Should Tenant comply with all of such terms, covenants and conditions and promptly pay all sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, the Security Deposit shall (less any portion thereof which may have been utilized by Landlord to cure any default or applied to any actual damage suffered by Landlord) be returned to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the end of the Term, unless an Event of Default (or a default that with notice and the passage of time would constitute an Event of Default) exists at the end of the Term, in which event, the thirty-(30)-day period shall commence on the date that Tenant cures such Event of Default or default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the last day of the eighteenth (18<sup>th</sup>) full calendar month of the Term, provided that (i) Tenant is not then in default under this Lease and (ii) Tenant has not been in monetary or material non monetary default beyond applicable notice and cure periods within the last eighteen (18) months, Landlord shall, upon Tenant's written request **("Tenant's Reduction Request"),** consent to an amendment to the existing Letter of Credit that reduces the amount of the Letter of Credit to $5,984,204.00. In addition, upon the last day of the thirty-sixth (36<sup>th</sup>) full calendar month of the Term, provided that (A) Tenant is not then in default under this Lease and (B) Tenant has not been in monetary or material non-monetary default beyond applicable notice and cure periods within the last eighteen (18) months, Landlord shall, upon receipt of a Tenant's Reduction Request, consent to an amendment to the existing Letter of Credit that reduces the amount of the Letter of Credit to $2,992,102.02.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(30) day period, and thereafter diligently pursue cure to its completion) (such period of time, the **"Landlord Cure Period").**

**PURSUANT TO SECTION 14.9 OF THE LEASE."** In connection with any Tenant Cure Repairs, Tenant shall perform all such work or repairs in accordance with all applicable Laws in a good and workmanlike manner, consistent with the standards of the Building, using new or like new materials.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Without limiting the foregoing rights regarding Tenant Cure Repairs, if a condition exists at the Premises which poses an imminent threat (i) to the physical well-being of persons at the Building or (ii) of material damage to Tenant's personal property in the Premises (each an **"Emergency Situation"),** then Tenant shall give Landlord written notice to both Landlord's property manager and Tenant's principal contact with Landlord **("Tenant's Emergency Situation Notice").** Thereafter, Landlord shall have five (5) Business Days to commence a cure with respect to such Emergency Situation (which may consist of Landlord developing a schedule determined in good faith setting forth the basic steps Landlord proposes to be taken to cure such Emergency Situation in a commercially reasonable time frame given the specifics of the Emergency Situation required and the times when such work is proposed to be done), and shall diligently prosecute such cure to completion (collectively **"Emergency Repairs").** If Landlord fails to commence to perform such Emergency Repairs within such five (5) Business Day period after Landlord receives Tenant's Emergency Situation Notice, or, to the extent Landlord commences to cure with such time period but fails to thereafter diligently pursue such Emergency Repairs to completion, then Tenant may send Landlord a notice **("Tenant Emergency Self-Help Notice")** notifying Landlord that Tenant intends to undertake self-help remedies for such Emergency Repairs (which Tenant's Emergency Self Help Notice shall clearly indicate that Tenant intends to take steps necessary to remedy the event giving rise to the Emergency Situation), and Landlord may indicate in writing within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such Tenant Emergency Self-Help Notice whether Landlord reasonably and in good faith disputes Tenant's right to perform self-help as set forth herein (a **"Landlord Dispute Notice").** Landlord's failure to timely deliver a Landlord Dispute Notice

shall conclusively be deemed Landlord's waiver of any claim that Tenant was not permitted to conduct self-help in accordance with this **Section 14.9(c).** If Landlord fails to timely provide a Landlord Dispute Notice, then Tenant may perform such Emergency Repairs or other actions as set forth in the Tenant Emergency Self-Help Notice at Landlord's expense; provided, however, that in no event shall Tenant undertake any actions which will or are reasonably likely to materially and adversely affect (other than to a de minimis extent) (I) the Structural Elements, (II) any Base Building Systems, or (ID) the exterior appearance of the Building. Tenant shall perform all such Emergency Repairs in accordance with all applicable Laws in a good and workmanlike manner, consistent with the standards of the Building, using new or like new materials

Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for such costs within thirty (30) days following Tenant's written request. Tenant may claim a default by Landlord under this Lease for any amount not timely paid by Landlord. Any final award in favor of Tenant for any such default, which is not subject to appeal, from a court or arbitrator in favor of Tenant, which is not paid by Landlord within the time period directed by such award (together with interest at the Default Interest Rate from the date Landlord was required to pay such amount until such offset occurs), may be offset by Tenant from Basic Rent next due and payable under this Lease; provided, however, Tenant may not deduct the amount of the award against more than twenty-five percent (25%) of Basic Rent next due and owing (until such time as the entire amount of such judgment is deducted).

To the extent of any conflicts or inconsistencies between the terms and provisions of this **Section 14.10** and the terms and provisions of the remainder of this Lease, the terms and provisions of this

------

provisions of this Lease or otherwise in exercising Landlord's rights or fulfilling Landlord's obligations under this Lease. Landlord and its invitees shall also have the right upon at least forty-eight (48) hours prior notice to enter the Premises, for the purpose of inspecting them or exhibiting them to prospective purchasers, prospective or actual Superior Lessors or Superior Mortgagees of the Building and, during the final twelve (12) months of the Term, to prospective tenants. For each of the above purposes, Landlord shall at all times have a key with which to unlock all the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant's vaults, safes and special security areas designated in advance by Tenant to Landlord. In an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to use any means that Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in and to the Premises. Any entry into the Premises by Landlord in the manner hereinbefore described shall not be deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant from any portion of the Premises. No provision of this Lease shall be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, alterations or decorations except as otherwise expressly agreed to be performed by Landlord in this Lease. In connection with any entry into the Premises by Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors, such party shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to interfere with Tenant's business operations.

Subject to **Section 10.5** above, Landlord shall be responsible for any damage to the Premises or Tenant's Removable Property caused by Landlord's entry into the Premises.

Except in the event of an emergency, as a condition to entry upon the Premises for any reason under this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to request that Landlord first enter into a Non Disclosure Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as **<u>Exhibit C</u>** (the **"NDA").**

Tenant shall have the right to require that any employee, contractor, subcontractor or vendor of Landlord execute such NDA with Tenant prior to entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that Tenant operates in a highly regulated industry that places conditions and limits on non-employee access to the entire Premises (the **"Restricted Access Area"),** which include background checks on vendors serving the Restricted Access Area and installation of an independent security system for the Restricted Access Area. Accordingly, Landlord agrees that from and after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall have the right to have a representative employed by Tenant accompany Landlord and its agents to gain entry to the Restricted Access Area for the purposes of showing the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or tenants, and making such alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Restricted Access Area as Landlord may deem necessary or desirable and the erecting, using and maintaining of utilities, services, pipes and conduits through the Restricted Access Area, and the representative shall remain present at all times while the Landlord or the Landlord's agents are present therein. Tenant shall have a representative available to Landlord 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to provide access to Landlord in an emergency, including being accompanied by the representative if necessary; however, Landlord shall be entitled to enter the Restricted Access Area without Tenant's representative present in an emergency that threatens material harm to persons or property.

The provision contained in the foregoing sentence is not intended to, and shall not, limit any right that Tenant might otherwise have to obtain injunctive relief against Landlord or any successor of Landlord, or to take any action not involving the personal liability of Landlord or any successor of Landlord to respond in monetary damages from Landlord's assets other than Landlord's equity interest in the Property.

Furthermore, whenever Tenant requests Landlord's consent or approval (whether or not provided for herein), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, as Additional Rent, any reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, if any) in connection therewith.

Landlord warrants and represents that Landlord has dealt with no broker in connection with the consummation of this Lease other than the Broker, and, in the event of any brokerage claims against Tenant predicated upon prior dealings with Landlord, Landlord agrees to defend the same and indemnify Tenant against any such claim. Landlord shall be responsible to pay the commission or fee due to the Broker as and to the extent provided in a separate written agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Rules and Regulations.</u>** Tenant, its employees, representatives, agents, subtenants, licensees, contractors, and invitees shall abide by the Rules and Regulations from time to time established by Landlord, it being agreed that Landlord shall have the right from time to time during the Term to make reasonable changes in and additions to the Rules and Regulations as Landlord deems necessary for the management, safety, care, cleanliness, conservation and sustainability of the Building and the Property and for the preservation of good order therein; provided, that no such other Rules and Regulations shall materially adversely affect Tenant's use of, or access to and from, the Premises, or materially increase any of Tenant's obligations, or materially decrease any of Tenant's rights, under this Lease. The Rules and Regulations shall be generally applicable to all tenants of the Building of similar nature to the Tenant named herein. Landlord agrees that any such Rules and Regulations will be uniformly enforced in a reasonable and non-discriminatory manner, provided, however, Landlord may waive any one or more of the Rules and Regulations for the benefit of any particular tenant if Landlord reasonably deems such waiver appropriate, but no such waiver shall be construed as a waiver of such Rules and Regulations in favor of any other tenant, nor prevent Landlord from enforcing such Rules and Regulations against any or all tenants of the Building. Landlord shall not have any obligation to enforce the Rules and Regulations or the terms of any other lease against any other Tenant and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for violation thereof by any other tenant, its employees, representatives, agents, contractors, visitors, subtenants, licensees or invitees. In the event that there shall be a conflict between such Rules and Regulations and the provisions of this Lease, the provisions of this Lease shall control. The Rules and Regulations currently in effect are set forth in **<u>Exhibit F</u>** attached hereto and made a part hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.7&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Financial Statements.</u>** Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, within ten (10) Business Days after Landlord's reasonable written request for the same (but not more than twice in any twelve month period unless requested in connection with a proposed sale or financing, or upon an Event of Default), Tenant's and Guarantor's most recently completed annual financial statements and Tenant's and Guarantor's most recently completed quarterly financial

statements (such annual statements being audited) prepared and certified by an independent certified public accountant and certified by an officer of Tenant or Guarantor, as applicable, as being true and correct in all material respects; as well as, upon Landlord's request, Tenant's and Guarantor's current financial forecasts and projections. Landlord and its affiliates and investors shall keep such financial statements confidential and shall execute a confidentiality agreement in form acceptable to Landlord, provided that Landlord shall be permitted to deliver such financial statements to a lender, purchaser or lessor or a prospective lender, purchaser or lessor in connection with (i) a sale or financing of the Building or the Property or any interest in any deed of trust encumbering the Building or the Property, or (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of the interests in Landlord or (iii) any other recapitalization of the equity interests in Landlord, so long as Landlord first advises the recipient of the confidential nature of such statements.

------

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and only so long as Guarantor's stock is publicly traded on a national exchange (or publicly listed in an equivalent manner, such as on NASDAQ) that requires its financial statements to be publicly disclosed, Tenant shall have no obligation to deliver any financial statements to Landlord if Tenant's financial information is not prepared separately from Guarantor's. Any such financial statements may be relied upon by any actual or potential lessor, purchaser, or mortgagee of the Property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Intentionally Omitted.</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.9&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Confidentiality.</u>** Tenant agrees that this Lease and the terms contained herein will be treated as strictly confidential and except as required by Law (or except with the written consent of Landlord) Tenant shall not disclose the same to any third party except for Tenant's partners, lenders, accountants and attorneys who have been advised of the confidentiality provisions contained herein and agree to be bound by the same. In the event Tenant is required by Law to provide this Lease or disclose any of its terms, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt notice of such requirement prior to making disclosure so that Landlord may seek an appropriate protective order. If failing the entry of a protective order Tenant is compelled to make disclosure, Tenant shall only disclose portions of the Lease which Tenant is required to disclose and will exercise reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the information so disclosed.

Landlord agrees that this Lease and the terms contained herein will be treated as strictly confidential and except as required by Law (or except with the written consent of Tenant) Landlord shall not disclose the same to any third party except for Landlord's current and prospective partners, lenders, and prospective purchasers, as well as accountants, attorneys, advisors and consultants who have been advised of the confidentiality provisions contained herein and agree to be bound by the same.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.10&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Invalidity of Particular Provisions; Saving Clause.</u>** If any term or provision of this Lease, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. If (but solely to the extent) the limitations on Landlord's liability set forth in this Lease would be held to be unenforceable or void in the absence of a modification holding the Landlord liable to Tenant or to another person for injury, loss, damage or liability arising from Landlord's omission, fault, negligence or other misconduct on or about the Premises, or other areas of the Property appurtenant thereto or used in connection therewith and not under Tenant's exclusive control, then such provision shall be deemed modified as and to the extent (but solely to the extent) necessary to render such provision enforceable under applicable Law. The foregoing shall not affect the application of **Section 15.3** to limit the assets available for execution of any claim against Landlord.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.11&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Provisions Binding, Etc.</u>** Except as herein otherwise provided, the terms hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns, respectively, of Landlord and Tenant (except in the case of Tenant, only such successors and assigns as may be permitted hereunder) and, if Tenant shall be an individual, upon and to his heirs, executors,

------

administrators, successors and permitted assigns. Each term and each provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant shall be construed to be both a covenant and a condition. Any reference in this Lease to successors and assigns of Tenant shall not be construed to constitute a consent to assignment by Tenant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.12&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Recording.</u>** Tenant agrees not to record this Lease, but each party hereto agrees, on the request of the other, to execute a short form memorandum of lease in recordable form and complying with applicable Law and shall contain no information other than what is statutorily required to record a short form memorandum of lease. In no event shall such document set forth the rent or other charges payable by Tenant under this Lease; and any such document shall expressly state that it is executed pursuant to the provisions contained in this Lease, and is not intended to vary the terms and conditions of this Lease. At any time following Landlord's request, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) Business Days after such request a release of any document recorded in the real property records for the location of the Property evidencing this Lease or notice of termination of this Lease in recordable form, which shall be held in escrow by Landlord until the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. The obligations of Tenant under this Section shal1 survive the expiration or any earlier termination of the Term.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.13&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Notice.</u>** Whenever, by the terms of this Lease, notice shall or may be given either to Landlord or to Tenant (excluding notices pursuant to **Section 15.1),** such notice shall be in writing and shall be sent by hand, registered or certified mail, or overnight or other commercial courier, postage or delivery charges, as the case may be, prepaid as follows:

If intended for Landlord, addressed to Landlord at the address set forth in **Article 1** of this Lease (or to such other address or addresses as may from time to time hereafter be designated by Landlord by like notice).

If intended for Tenant, addressed to Tenant at the address set forth in **Article 1** of this Lease (or to such other address or addresses as may from time to time hereafter be designated by Tenant by like notice).

Except as otherwise provided herein, all such notices shall be effective when received; provided, that (i) if receipt is refused, notice shall be effective upon the first occasion that such receipt is refused, (ii) if the notice is unable to be delivered due to a change of address of which no notice was given, notice shall be effective upon the date such delivery was attempted, (iii) if the notice address is a post office box number, notice shall be effective the day after such notice is sent as provided hereinabove or (iv) if the notice is to a foreign address, notice shall be effective two (2) days after such notice is sent as provided hereinabove.

Notices may be sent by email to an address provided by the receiving party and such notice shall be effective when sent, provided that the sending party shall also deliver a hard copy notice by the other means set forth above.

Any notice given by an attorney on behalf of Landlord or by Landlord's managing agent shall be considered as given by Landlord and shall be fully effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.14&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Authority.</u>** Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that (i) Tenant is duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of Delaware, and possesses all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business, (ii) Tenant has full power and authority to carry on its business, enter into this Lease and consummate the transaction contemplated by this Lease, (iii) the individual executing and delivering this Lease on Tenant's behalf has been duly authorized to do so, (iv) this Lease has been duly executed and delivered by Tenant, (v) this Lease constitutes a valid, legal, binding and enforceable obligation of Tenant (subject to bankruptcy, insolvency or creditor rights laws generally, and principles of equity generally), (vi) the execution, delivery and performance of this Lease by Tenant will not cause or constitute a default under, or conflict with, the organizational documents of Tenant or any agreement to which Tenant is a party, (vii) the execution, delivery and performance of this Lease by Tenant will not violate any applicable Law, and (viii) all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required on the part of Tenant for the execution, delivery and performance of this Lease have been obtained or made.

Landlord hereby represents and warrants to Tenant that as of the Effective Date of this Lease (a) Landlord is duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of Delaware, and possesses all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business, (b) Landlord has full power and authority to enter into this Lease and consummate the transaction contemplated by this Lease without additional approvals or consents, (c) the individual executing_ and delivering this Lease on Landlord's behalf has been duly authorized to do so, (d) this Lease has been duly executed and delivered by Landlord, (e) this Lease constitutes a valid, legal, binding and enforceable obligation of Landlord (subject to bankruptcy, insolvency or creditor rights laws generally, and principles of equity generally); (f) the execution, delivery and performance of this Lease by Landlord will not cause or constitute a default under, or conflict with, the organizational documents of Landlord or any agreement to which Landlord is a party, (g) the execution, delivery and performance of this Lease by Landlord will not violate any applicable Law, and (h) all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required on the part of Landlord for the execution, delivery and performance of this Lease have been obtained or made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.15&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>When Lease Becomes Binding; Entire Agreement; Modification.</u>** The submission of this document for examination and negotiation does not constitute an offer to lease, or a reservation of, or option for, the Premises, and this document shall become effective and binding only upon the execution and delivery hereof by both Landlord and Tenant. This Lease is the entire agreement between Landlord and Tenant, and this Lease expressly supersedes any negotiations, considerations, representations and understandings and proposals or other written documents relating hereto. This Lease may be modified or altered only by written agreement between Landlord and Tenant, and no act or omission of any employee or agent of Landlord shall alter, change or modify any of the provisions hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.16&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Paragraph Headings and Interpretation of Sections.</u>** The paragraph headings throughout this instrument are for convenience and reference only, and the words contained therein shall in no way be held to explain, modify, amplify or aid in the interpretation, construction or meaning of the provisions of this Lease. The provisions of this Lease shall be construed as a whole, according to their common meaning (except where a

------

precise legal interpretation is clearly evidenced), and not for or against either party. Use in this Lease of the words "including," "such as" or words of similar import, when followed by any general term, statement or matter, shall not be construed to limit such term, statement or matter to the specified item(s), whether or not language of non-limitation, such as ''without limitation" or "including, but not limited to," or words of similar import, are used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other terms or matters that could fall within a reasonably broad scope of such term, statement or matter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.17&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Joint and Several Liability; Successors and Assigns.</u>** If there shall be more than person or entity which constitute the "Tenant" hereunder, the obligations of Tenant hereunder shall be joint and several for all such persons and entities. The covenants and conditions herein contained, subject to the provisions as to assignment, shall inure to and bind the heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns of the parties hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.18&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Waiver of Jury Trial</u>** In any action or proceeding arising herefrom, Landlord and Tenant hereby consent to (i) the jurisdiction of any competent court within the state where the Building is located, (ii) service of process by any means authorized by the law of the state where the Building is located, and (iii) in the interest of saving time and expense, trial without a jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other or their successors in respect of any matter arising out of or in connection with this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, Tenant's use or occupancy of the premises, and/or any claim for injury or damage, or any emergency or statutory remedy. In the event Landlord commences any summary proceedings or action for nonpayment of Basic rent or Additional Rent, Tenant shall not interpose any counterclaim of any nature or description (unless such counterclaim shall be mandatory) in any such proceeding or action, but shall be relegated to an independent action at law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.19&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Reservation.</u>** Nothing set forth in this Lease shall be deemed or construed to restrict Landlord from making any repairs, renovations, replacements, improvements and modifications to, or to reconfigure, any of the Parking Areas or Common Facilities serving the Property, and Landlord expressly reserves the right to make any such repairs, renovations, replacements, improvements and modifications or reconfigurations to such areas and other facilities of the Building and Common Facilities as Landlord may deem appropriate, including the addition or deletion of temporary or permanent improvements therein. In connection with the foregoing, Landlord may temporarily close or cover entrances, doors, windows, corridors, or other facilities without liability to Tenant; however, in doing so, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to not unreasonably interfere with or disturb Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises or the Parking Areas which are for Tenant's exclusive use. Notwithstanding anything else in this Section to the contrary, Landlord shall be permitted to exercise the foregoing rights only if: (i) Tenant's use of the Premises, access thereto, or services or facilities furnished or available to the Premises are not materially and adversely affected, (ii) Landlord shall not reduce Tenant's usable space of the Premises; and (iii) Landlord shall repair all damage caused and restore such areas of the Premises to the condition existing immediately prior to such work.

No subsequent alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Lease shall be binding upon Landlord or Tenant, unless reduced to writing and signed by the party or parties to be charged therewith. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including pdf or any electronic signature process complying with the U.S. Federal ESIGN Act of 2000) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.

Operating Expenses

Operating Expenses shall include the following, without limitation:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.All expenses incurred by Landlord or Landlord's agents which shall be directly related to employment of personnel, including amounts incurred for wages, salaries and other compensation for services, payroll, social security, unemployment and similar taxes, workmen's compensation insurance, disability benefits, pensions, hospitalization, retirement plans and group insurance, uniforms and working clothes and the cleaning thereof, and expenses imposed on Landlord or Landlord's agents pursuant to any collective bargaining agreement for the services of employees of Landlord or Landlord's agents in connection with the operation, repair, maintenance, cleaning, management and protection of the Property, including without limitation day and night supervisors, manager, accountants, bookkeepers, janitors, carpenters, engineers, mechanics, electricians and plumbers and personnel engaged in supervision of any of the persons mentioned above; provided that, if any such employee is also employed on other property of Landlord, such compensation shall be suitably prorated among the Building and such other properties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.The cost of services, utilities, materials and supplies furnished or used in the operation, repair, maintenance, cleaning, cleaning supplies and equipment (including rental), care of landscaping and irrigation systems, installing intrabuilding network cabling and maintaining, repairing, securing and replacing existing intrabuilding network cabling, management and protection of the Property and the Building.

Annual charge-off shall be determined by dividing the original capital expenditure plus an interest factor equal to 9% by the number of years of useful life of the capital expenditure; and the useful life shall be determined reasonably by Landlord in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices in effect at the time of making such expenditure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.Costs for electricity, water and sewer use charges, gas and other utilities supplied to the Property and not paid for directly by tenants.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)Marketing costs, including real estate broker's or other leasing commissions, attorneys' fees, space planning costs, and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with lease, sublease and/or assignment negotiations and transactions with present or prospective tenants or other occupants of the Building;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xi)Costs incurred, in excess of the deductible, in connection with repairs or other work needed to the Building because of fire, windstorm, or other casualty or cause insured against by Landlord;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xii)Any costs, fines or penalties incurred because Landlord violated any governmental rule or authority;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xiii)Costs incurred to comply with applicable Law with respect to Hazardous Materials, which exist at the Building or the Property as of the Commencement Date or which are not otherwise the responsibility of Tenant under any provision of this Lease;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xviii)The wages and benefits of any employee who does not devote substantially all of his or her employed time to the Building or the Property unless such wages and benefits are prorated to reflect time spent on operating and managing the Building or the Property vis-à-vis time spent on matters unrelated to operating and managing the Building or the Property; provided that in no event shall Operating Expenses include wages and/or benefits attributable to personnel above the level of portfolio property manager or portfolio engineer.

<u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</u> corporation, with an address of <u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</u> (the "**Guarantor**") in favor of MENDEL NEW ALBANY PROPERTY OWNER LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (hereinafter called "**Landlord**"), having an office at c/o Vitrian OpCo LLC, 7200 Wisconsin Avenue, Suite 960, Bethesda, MD 20814, with respect to that certain lease dated <u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</u>, 2025 (the "**Lease**") between Landlord and HIMS INC., a Delaware corporation ("**Tenant**"), covering certain space in the building located at and numbered 29885 Innovation Campus Way, New Albany, Ohio. In order to induce Landlord to enter into the Lease, Guarantor hereby guarantees, unconditionally and absolutely, to Landlord, its successors and assigns (without requiring any notice of nonpayment, nonkeeping, nonperformance or nonobservance or proof of notice or demand whereby to charge Guarantor, all of which Guarantor hereby expressly waives), the full and faithful keeping, performance and observance of all the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of the Lease provided to be kept, performed and observed by Tenant (expressly including, without being limited to, the payment as and when due of the base rent, additional rent, charges and damages payable by Tenant under the Lease) and the payment of any and all other damages for which Tenant shall be liable by reason of any act or omission contrary to any of said covenants, agreements, terms, provisions or conditions (collectively the "**Obligations**").

As a further inducement to Landlord to enter into the Lease and in consideration thereof, Guarantor represents and warrants that Tenant is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guarantor and therefore Guarantor will benefit by Tenant's entering into the Lease.

As a further inducement to Landlord to enter into the Lease and in consideration thereof, Guarantor hereby expressly covenants and acknowledges as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.This Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be continuing and irrevocable until the earlier to occur of (i) Guarantor's payment of liabilities hereunder, exclusive of Landlord's enforcement costs and (ii) Tenant's performance of all of its Obligations, including those which survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease (provided, however, that Guarantor's obligations hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect in the event that all or any part of such payment or performance is avoided or recovered directly or indirectly from Landlord as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise). This Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall continue during any option period, extended term or renewal period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.Guarantor hereby waives the right to assert any defense to its liability under this Guaranty based on (a) Guarantor's right to require Landlord to proceed against Tenant or a co- guarantor or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by Landlord at any time; (b) any defense that may arise by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of any other person or persons or the failure of Landlord to file or enforce a claim against the estate (in administration, bankruptcy or any other proceeding) of any other person or persons; (c) Landlord's failure to make any demand for performance or to give a notice of nonperformance to Tenant; (d) any defense based

------

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a transfer of Tenant's interest in the Lease, pursuant to which a replacement guarantor acceptable to Landlord guarantees the obligations of the transferee to Landlord in a form substantially the same as this Guaranty, then this Guaranty and Guarantor's liability arising under this Guaranty after the date of such transfer shall be terminated as of the date of the transfer. Guarantor hereby waive all presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty by Landlord, and this Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor immediately upon its delivery to Landlord.<br>

Guarantor hereby assigns to Landlord any rights Guarantor may have to file a claim and proof of claim in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding of Tenant and any awards or payments thereon to which Guarantor would otherwise be entitled, to the extent of any unsatisfied Obligation. Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all claims it may have against Tenant to Landlord's claims under the Lease.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.The liability of Guarantor is coextensive with that of Tenant and also joint and several with Tenant, and action or suit may be brought against Guarantor and carried to final judgment and/or completion and recovery had, either with or without making Tenant or any co-guarantor a party thereto.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.Neither Guarantor's obligation to make payment in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed, stayed, released or limited in any manner whatsoever by any impairment, modification, change, release, limitation or stay of the liability of Tenant or its estate in bankruptcy or any remedy for the enforcement thereof, resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or other statute or from the decision of any court interpreting any of the same, and Guarantor shall be obligated under this Guaranty as if no such impairment, stay, modification, change, release or limitation had occurred.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.This Guaranty, and all of the terms hereof, shall be binding on Guarantor and the successors, assigns, and legal representatives of each Guarantor.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.If any proceeding is brought to interpret or enforce this Guaranty, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party all of the prevailing party's attorneys' fees, costs of experts and consultants, and court and arbitration costs, including costs related to arbitration, trial, appeal or collection of any judgment, and any costs incurred in connection with or relating to any bankruptcy proceedings of Guarantor. The prevailing party shall be determined by the judge or arbitrator governing the proceeding, although nothing contained in this Guaranty requires the parties to arbitrate any disputes concerning this Guaranty.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.Should any provision of this Guaranty be determined to be illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, all other provisions hereof shall nevertheless be deemed effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.The acceptance by Landlord of the performance of any of the Obligations under the Lease by Guarantor, including, without limitation, the acceptance of rent payments, shall constitute neither an assignment of the Lease to Guarantor nor Landlord's consent to such an assignment.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.Guarantor, from time to time within fifteen (15) business days following Landlord's request, shall (a) deliver to Landlord Guarantor's most recently audited, or if not available, unaudited, financial statements, in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord; provided, however, that Guarantor shall not be compelled to furnish any such financial statements more than once in any twelve month period, except in case of a sale or other transfer of the Property by Landlord, a financing of the Property, or upon a default of Tenant; and further provided, however, that so long as Guarantor's shares are traded on a public exchange, Landlord will look solely to public sources of information to secure data concerning Guarantor's financial condition and affairs, (b) execute and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate containing such truthful information as Landlord may reasonably request, and (c) execute and deliver to Landlord such further instruments or documentation as may

Guarantor hereby assigns to Landlord any rights Guarantor may have to file a claim and proof of claim in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding of Tenant and any awards or payments thereon to which Guarantor would otherwise be entitled, to the extent of any unsatisfied Obligation. Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all claims it may have against Tenant to Landlord's claims under the Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.The liability of Guarantor is coextensive with that of Tenant and also joint and several with Tenant, and action or suit may be brought against Guarantor and carried to final judgment and/or completion and recovery had, either with or without making Tenant or any co-guarantor a party thereto.
