Landlord shall deliver the portion of such refund to Tenant along with such statement.  Section 5.03 Liens.  Within 30 days after Tenant’s receipt of any notice of any lien and except if such  lien pertains to any matter caused by Landlord or Landlord’s agents, employees, representatives or contractors,  Tenant shall remove and discharge or caused to be removed or discharged any charge, lien, security interest or  encumbrance upon the Premises or upon any Basic Rent, Additional Rent or other sums payable hereunder which  arises for any reason, including all liens which arise out of the possession, use, occupancy, construction, repair or  rebuilding of the Premises or by reason of labor or materials furnished or claimed to have been furnished to Tenant  or for the Premises. Tenant may provide a bond or other security reasonably acceptable to Landlord (but in no event  greater in amount than the amount of such encumbrance) to remove or pay all costs associated with the removal of  any such lien, provided the conditions of Section 5.05 shall be satisfied. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be  construed as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, to or for the performance (on behalf  of or for the benefit of Landlord) by any contractor, laborer, materialman or vendor, of any labor or services or for  the furnishing of any materials for any construction, alteration, addition, repair or demolition of or to the Premises or  any part thereof.

The obligations of Landlord under this Section shall survive any termination or expiration  of this Lease.  Section 5.05 Permitted Contests.  Tenant, at its expense, may contest, by appropriate legal  proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence, any Legal Requirements with which Tenant is required  to comply pursuant to Section 5.02(b) or any Environmental Law under Section 5.06, or the amount or validity or  application, in whole or in part, of any tax, assessment or charge which Tenant is obligated to pay or any lien,  encumbrance or charge not permitted by Sections 5.02(a), 5.03 and 6.01, provided that unless Tenant has already  paid such tax, assessment or charge, such contest may be undertaken by Tenant only in compliance with the  following conditions: (i) the commencement of such proceedings shall suspend the enforcement or collection thereof  against or from Landlord and against or from the Premises, (ii) neither the Premises nor any rent therefrom nor any  part thereof or interest therein would be in any danger of being sold, forfeited, attached or lost, (iii) Tenant shall  have furnished such security, if any, as may be required in the proceedings and as may be reasonably required by  Landlord, and (iv) if such contest be finally resolved against Tenant, Tenant shall promptly pay the amount required  to be paid, together with all charges, fees and penalties accrued thereon.

Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord  harmless against any cost or expense of any kind that may be imposed upon Landlord in connection with any such  contest and any loss resulting therefrom. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, Tenant  shall not be in default hereunder beyond any applicable cure period in respect to the compliance with any Legal  Requirements with which Tenant is obligated to comply pursuant to Section 5.02(b), any Environmental Law under  Section 5.06, or in respect to the payment of any tax, assessment or charge which Tenant is obligated to pay or any  lien, encumbrance or charge not permitted by Sections 5.02(a), 5.03 and 6.01 which Tenant is in good faith  contesting in compliance with this Section 5.05.

   through the gross negligent conduct or willful misconduct of Landlord, Mortgagee, or their respective  agents, employees or representatives. The indemnity contained in this Section 5.06 shall survive the  expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, unless at the time of or after such expiration or earlier  termination of this Lease, Tenant provides Landlord a Site Assessment acceptable to Landlord showing the  Premises to be (1) free of all Regulated Substances except those placed on the Premises by Landlord,  Mortgagee, or their agents, employees or representatives, and (2) not in violation of Environmental Laws  and that there exists no condition which could result in any violations of Environmental Laws, except to the  extent Landlord demonstrates that any matter which is subject to this indemnity arose during the Term and  did not arise from the gross negligence or misconduct of Landlord, Mortgagee, or their respective agents,  employees or representatives.  ARTICLE VI  Section 6.01 Condemnation and Casualty.  (a) General Provisions. Except as provided in Section 6.01(b) and (c), Tenant hereby irrevocably  assigns to Landlord any award, compensation or insurance payment to which Tenant may become entitled by reason  of Tenant’s interest in the Premises (i) if the use, occupancy or title of the Premises or any part thereof is taken,  requisitioned or sold in, by or on account of any actual or threatened eminent domain proceeding or other action by  any Person having the power of eminent domain (“Condemnation”) or (ii) if the Premises or any part thereof is  damaged or destroyed by fire, flood or other casualty (“Casualty”). All awards, compensations and insurance  payments on account of any Condemnation or Casualty are herein collectively called “Compensation”.  Tenant may  not unilaterally negotiate, prosecute or adjust any claim for any Compensation; Tenant must consult with Landlord  and obtain Landlord’s consent thereto, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If  the parties are unable to so agree, then they shall appoint an entity or individual that specializes in such negotiations  which entity or individual shall negotiate, prosecute and adjust a claim for Compensation. Landlord shall be entitled  to participate in any such proceeding, action, negotiation, prosecution, appeal or adjustment as contemplated herein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VI, if permissible under applicable law, any  separate Compensation made to Tenant for its moving and relocation expenses, anticipated loss of business profits,  loss of fixtures and equipment paid for by Tenant and which are not part of the Premises (including the Severable  Property) shall be paid directly to and shall be retained by Tenant (and shall not be deemed to be Compensation),  and Tenant shall have no obligation to deliver any such funds to Landlord. All Compensation shall be applied  pursuant to this Section 6.01, and all such Compensation (less the expense of collecting such Compensation) is  herein called the “Net Proceeds”.  Except as specifically set forth herein, all Net Proceeds shall be paid to the  Proceeds Trustee (as defined in Section 6.02(b)) and applied pursuant to this Section 6.01. If the Premises or any  part thereof shall be damaged or destroyed by Casualty, and if the estimated cost of rebuilding, replacing or  repairing the same shall exceed $50,000, Tenant promptly shall notify Landlord thereof.  (b) Substantial Condemnation during the Term. If a final, non-appealable judgment of  Condemnation shall be rendered which affects all or a substantial portion of the Premises and shall render the  Improvements permanently untenantable for Tenant’s use and occupancy in Tenant’s business, as such business was  operating prior to such Condemnation, then Tenant may, not later than sixty (60) days after a determination has been  made as to when possession of the Premises must be delivered with respect to such Condemnation, deliver to  Landlord (i) notice of its intention (“Notice of Intention”) to terminate this Lease on the rental payment date which  occurs not less than thirty (30) days after the delivery of such Notice of Intention (the “Condemnation  Termination Date”), and (ii) a certificate of an authorized officer of Tenant describing the event giving rise to such  termination and stating that such Condemnation has rendered the Improvements permanently untenantable for  Tenant’s use and occupancy in Tenant’s business. This Lease shall terminate, become null and void and otherwise  have no further force and effect on the Condemnation Termination Date, except with respect to obligations and  liabilities of Tenant hereunder, actual or contingent, which have accrued on or prior to the Condemnation  Termination Date, upon payment by Tenant of all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums due and payable  hereunder as of the Condemnation Termination Date.  (c) Substantial Casualty during the Last Two Years of the Term. If an insured Casualty shall  occur with respect all or a substantial portion of the Improvements during the last two (2) years of the Term and  shall render the Improvements untenantable for Tenant’s use and occupancy in Tenant’s business, as such business  

 

   was operating prior to such Casualty, for a period of greater than 180 days, then Tenant may, not later than sixty  (60) days after such Casualty, deliver to Landlord (i) notice of its intention to terminate this Lease on the next rental  payment date which occurs not less than thirty (30) days after the delivery of such notice (the “Casualty  Termination Date”), (ii) a certificate of an authorized officer of Tenant describing the event giving rise to such  termination and stating that such Casualty has rendered the Improvements permanently untenantable for Tenant’s  use and occupancy in Tenant’s business, and (iii) documentation to the effect that termination of this Lease will not  be in violation of any agreement then in effect with which Tenant is obligated to comply pursuant to this Lease.  Upon payment by Tenant of all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums then due and payable hereunder to and  including the Casualty Termination Date, this Lease shall terminate, become null and void and otherwise have no  further force and effect on the Casualty Termination Date, except with respect to obligations and liabilities of Tenant  hereunder, actual or contingent, which have accrued on or prior to the Casualty Termination Date, and the Net  Proceeds from any Casualty shall belong to and be paid, assigned and set over to Landlord; provided, however,  Tenant shall be entitled to any separate award expressly made to Tenant by any governmental authority for the cost  of or the removal of Tenant’s equipment, fixtures, moving expenses and other similar damages available to Tenant.  (d) Less Than Substantial Condemnation or any Casualty. If, after a Condemnation or Casualty,  Tenant does not give or does not have the right to give notice of its intention to terminate this Lease as provided in  subsection 6.0l(b) or 6.0l(c), then this Lease shall continue in full force and effect and Tenant shall, at its expense,  rebuild, replace or repair the Premises in conformity with the requirements of subsections 2.01, 2.02 and 5.03 so as  to restore the Premises (in the case of Condemnation, as nearly as practicable) to the condition, and character thereof  immediately prior to such Casualty or Condemnation; provided that Tenant and Landlord shall use reasonable  efforts to consider modifications which would make the Improvements a more contemporary design. To the extent  the Net Proceeds with respect to any Casualty are less than $100,000, such amount shall be paid to Tenant to be used  to rebuild, replace or repair the Premises in a lien free and good and workmanlike manner. To the extent the Net  Proceeds from any Casualty are $100,000 or greater, such amount shall be paid to the Proceeds Trustee and prior to  any such rebuilding, replacement or repair, Tenant shall determine the maximum cost thereof (the “Restoration  Cost”), which amount shall be reasonably acceptable to Landlord. The Restoration Cost shall be paid first out of  Tenant’s own funds to the extent that the Restoration Cost exceeds the Net Proceeds payable in connection with  such occurrence, after which expenditure Tenant shall be entitled to receive the Net Proceeds from the Proceeds  Trustee, but only against (i) certificates of Tenant delivered to Landlord and the Proceeds Trustee from time to time  but no more often than monthly as such work of rebuilding, replacement and repair progresses, each such certificate  describing the work for which Tenant is requesting payment and the cost incurred by Tenant in connection therewith  and stating that Tenant has not theretofore received payment for such work and (ii) such additional documentation or  conditions as Landlord or the Proceeds Trustee may reasonably require, including copies of all contracts and  subcontracts relating to restoration, architects’ certifications, title policy updates and lien waivers or releases. Any  Net Proceeds remaining after final payment has been made for such work from Net Proceeds and after Tenant has  been reimbursed from Net Proceeds for any portions it contributed to the Restoration Cost with respect to any  Casualty shall be paid to Tenant and with respect to any Condemnation shall be paid to Landlord. In the event of any  temporary Condemnation, this Lease shall remain in full effect and Tenant, if Tenant is not in Default, beyond any  applicable cure period, under any provision of this Lease, shall be entitled to receive the Net Proceeds allocable to  such temporary Condemnation, except that any portion of the Net Proceeds allocable to the period after the  expiration or termination of the Term shall be paid to Landlord. If the cost of any rebuilding, replacement or repair  required to be made by Tenant pursuant to this subsection 6.0l(d) shall exceed the amount of such Net Proceeds, the  deficiency shall be paid by Tenant. For avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Landlord be responsible for providing  funds to fund restoration following a Casualty unless such Casualty was caused by any act, omission, or fault of  Landlord or any of Landlord’s agents, representatives, contractors, employees, members, successors or assigns.  (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, all of the foregoing provisions of this  Section 6.01 shall be subject and subordinate to any provisions to the contrary contained in any subordination, non- disturbance and attornment agreement between Tenant and any applicable Mortgagee.    Section 6.02 Insurance.   (a) Tenant shall maintain insurance on the Premises of the following character:  

 

   (i) Property Insurance covering Tenant’s property including betterments and  improvements against risks of direct physical loss using Causes of Loss - Special Form, including loss by  fire, lightning, flooding (if the Premises are in a flood zone), earthquakes (if the Premises are in an  earthquake zone), windstorm and hail (to include Named Storms).

Property Insurance should contain waiver of subrogation by the insurer against  the Landlord for all losses. Property Insurance shall have a deductible of no more than $25,000 per  occurrence, provided Tenant shall have the right to reasonably increase the such deductible amount over  time provided (i) such alternative deductible amount is commensurate for the deductibles then maintained  by other tenants of similar buildings and (ii) Landlord’s written agreements with its lender do not require  Landlord to ensure that Tenant maintains a deductible of no more than $25,000 per occurrence.   (ii) Commercial general liability insurance and/or umbrella liability insurance (on  an occurrence basis), on ISO form CG 0001 0413, or its equivalent, against claims for bodily injury, death  or property damage occurring on, in or about the Premises in the minimum amounts of $1,000,000 Per  Occurrence and $2,000,000 General Aggregate with deletions of contractual liability exclusions.  Defense  expenses are to be provided as an additional benefit and not within the limits of liability.

Such insurance shall be written by companies authorized to do business in the state where the  Premises are located and carrying an A.M. Best Rating of at least A VIII or A-.    (b) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of its policies and Certificate of Insurance,  evidencing the existence of all insurance which is required to be maintained by Tenant hereunder and payment of all  premiums therefor, such delivery to be made (i) upon the execution and delivery hereof and (ii) at least ten (10) days  following receipt of request. Tenant shall not obtain or carry separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in  the event of loss with that required by this Section 6.02 unless Landlord is named an additional insured therein and  unless there is a mortgagee endorsement in favor of Mortgagee with loss payable as provided herein. Tenant shall  immediately notify Landlord whenever any such separate insurance is obtained and shall deliver to Landlord the  policies or certificates evidencing the same. Any insurance required hereunder may be provided under blanket  policies, provided that the Premises are specified therein.  (c) Tenant shall directly pay for all insurance required of Tenant under this Lease.  

 

   (d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, provided Tenant  maintains the insurance required of Tenant as set forth above, each party hereto hereby waives any and all rights of  recovery, claim, action or cause of action, against the other party and its agents, officers, and employees, for any loss  or damage that may occur to the Premises (including the Improvements) or to the Severable Property or any other  property of Tenant in, on or about the Premises, regardless of cause or origin, including the negligence of the other  party and its agents, officers, and employees, without prejudice to any waiver or indemnity provisions applicable to  Tenant and any limitation of liability provisions applicable to Landlord hereunder, of which provisions Tenant shall  notify all insurers.   (e) All insurance required to be carried by Tenant hereunder shall provide that said insurance  shall not be materially changed, canceled or permitted to lapse on less than thirty (30) days' prior written notice to  Landlord. In addition, Tenant shall name Landlord, and any mortgagee, as requested by Landlord, as additional  insured under its commercial general liability, excess and umbrella policies (but only to the extent of the limits  required hereunder). On or before the Commencement Date (or the date of any earlier entry or occupancy by  Tenant), and thereafter, within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of each such policy, Tenant shall furnish  Landlord with certificates of insurance in the form of ACORD 27, ACORD 28 (or other evidence of insurance  reasonably acceptable to Landlord), evidencing all required coverages, and that with the exception of Worker's  Compensation insurance, such insurance is primary and non-contributory. Landlord reserves the right from time to  time to require Tenant to obtain higher minimum amounts or different types of insurance if it becomes customary  for other landlords of similar buildings to require similar sized tenants to carry insurance of such higher minimum  amounts or of such different types.  ARTICLE VII  Section 7.01 Conditional Limitations; Default Provisions.  (a) Any of the following occurrences or acts shall constitute an Event of Default under this Lease:  (i) If Tenant shall (1) fail to pay any Basic Rent, recurring Additional Rent or other  recurring sum when due and such failure shall continue for ten (10) days after Landlord’s written notice to  Tenant of such failure or (2) fail to observe or perform any other provision hereof not otherwise specifically  described in this Section 7.01(a) and such non-monetary failure shall continue for fifteen (15) days after  Landlord’s written notice to Tenant of such failure (provided that, in the case of any such failure which  cannot be cured by the payment of money and cannot with diligence be cured within such fifteen (15) day  period, if Tenant shall commence promptly to cure the same and thereafter prosecute the curing thereof  with diligence, the time within which such failure may be cured shall be extended for such period as is  necessary to complete the cure thereof with diligence;  (ii) If Tenant shall file a petition in bankruptcy or for reorganization or for an  arrangement pursuant to any federal or state law or shall be adjudicated a bankrupt or become insolvent or  shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if a petition proposing the adjudication of Tenant  as a bankrupt or its reorganization pursuant to any federal or state bankruptcy law or any similar federal or  state law shall be filed in any court and Tenant shall consent to or acquiesce in the filing thereof or such  petition shall not be discharged or denied within ninety (90) days after the filing thereof; or  (iii) If a receiver, trustee or conservator of Tenant, or of all or substantially all of the  assets of Tenant, or of the Premises or Tenant’s estate therein shall be appointed in any proceeding brought  by Tenant, or if any such receiver, trustee or conservator shall be appointed in any proceeding brought  against Tenant and shall not be discharged within ninety (90) days after such appointment, or if Tenant  shall consent to or acquiesce in such appointment.  (b) If an Event of Default shall have happened and be continuing, Landlord shall have the right to give  Tenant notice of Landlord’s termination of the Term. Upon the giving of such notice, the Term and the estate hereby  granted shall expire and terminate on such date as fully and completely and with the same effect as if such date were  the date herein fixed for the expiration of the Term, and all rights of Tenant hereunder shall expire and terminate,  but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided.  

 

   (c) If an Event of Default shall have happened and be continuing, Landlord shall have the immediate  right, whether or not the Term shall have been terminated pursuant to subsection 7.01(b), to reenter and repossess  the Premises and the right to remove all persons and property (subject to Section 3.02) therefrom by summary  proceedings, ejectment or any other legal action or in any lawful manner Landlord determines to be necessary or  desirable. Landlord shall be under no liability by reason of any such reentry, repossession or removal. No such  reentry, repossession or removal shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate the Term unless a notice  of such termination is given to Tenant pursuant to subsection 7.0l(b) or unless such termination is decreed by a  court.  (d) At any time or from time to time after a reentry, repossession or removal pursuant to subsection  7.0l(c), whether or not the Term shall have been terminated pursuant to subsection 7.0l(b), Landlord may relet the  Premises for the account of Tenant, in the name of Tenant or Landlord or otherwise. Landlord may collect any rents  payable by reason of such reletting.   Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to relet the Premises or for any  failure to collect any rent due upon any such reletting. Landlord agrees to make reasonable efforts to mitigate its  damages under this Lease in the event Tenant defaults under this Lease.  (e) No expiration or termination of the Term pursuant to subsection 7.0l(b), by operation of law or  otherwise, and no reentry, repossession or removal pursuant to subsection 7.0l(c) or otherwise, and no reletting of  the Premises pursuant to subsection 7.0l(d) or otherwise, shall relieve Tenant of its liabilities and obligations  hereunder, all of which shall survive such expiration, termination, reentry, repossession, removal or reletting other  than as provided by applicable law.  (f) In the event of any expiration or termination of the Term or reentry or repossession of the  Premises or removal of persons or property therefrom by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default beyond  any applicable cure period, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums required to  be paid by Tenant, in each case to and including the date of such expiration, termination, reentry, repossession or  removal, and, thereafter, Tenant shall, until the end of what would have been the Term in the absence of such  expiration, termination, reentry, repossession or removal and whether or not the Premises shall have been relet, be  liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord all Basic Rent, all Additional Rent and other sums which would be  payable under this Lease as and when due.  (g) The remedies described above are not in limitation of any and all remedies that Landlord may  have at law and equity.    Section 7.02 Bankruptcy or Insolvency.  (a) If Tenant shall become a debtor in a case filed under Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy  Code and Tenant or Tenant’s trustee shall fail to elect to assume this Lease within sixty (60) days after the filing of  such petition or such additional time as provided by the court within such sixty (60) day period, this Lease shall be  deemed to have been rejected. Immediately thereupon, Landlord shall be entitled to possession of the Premises  without further obligation to Tenant or Tenant’s trustee, and this Lease, upon the election of Landlord, shall  terminate, but Landlord’s right to be compensated for damages (including liquidated damages pursuant to any  provision hereof) or the exercise of any other remedies in any such proceeding shall survive, whether or not this  Lease shall be terminated.  (b) Neither the whole nor any portion of Tenant’s interest in this Lease or its estate in the Premises  shall pass to any trustee, receiver, conservator, assignee for the benefit of creditors or any other Person, by operation  of law or otherwise under the laws of any state having jurisdiction of the person or property of Tenant, unless  Landlord shall have consented to such transfer. No acceptance by Landlord of rent or any other payments from any  such trustee, receiver, assignee, or Person shall not be deemed to constitute such consent by Landlord nor shall it be  deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to terminate this Lease for any transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Lease  without such consent.  

 

   Section 7.03 Additional Rights of Landlord.  (a) Failure to insist upon the strict performance of any provision hereof or to exercise any option,  right, power or remedy contained herein shall not constitute a waiver or relinquishment thereof for the future.  Receipt by Landlord of any Basic Rent, Additional Rent or other sums payable hereunder with knowledge of the  breach of any provision hereof shall not constitute waiver of such breach, and no waiver by Landlord of any  provision hereof shall be deemed to have been made unless made in writing. Landlord shall be entitled to seek  injunctive relief in case of the violation, or attempted or threatened violation, of any of the provisions hereof, or to a  decree compelling performance of any of the provisions hereof, or to any other remedy allowed to Landlord by law  or equity.  (b) Tenant hereby waives and surrenders for itself and all those claiming under it, including creditors  of all kinds, (i) any right and privilege which it or any of them may have to redeem the Premises or to have a  continuance of this Lease after termination of Tenant’s right of occupancy by order or judgment of any court or by  any legal process or writ, or under the terms of this Lease, or after the termination of the Term as herein provided,  (ii) the benefits of any law which exempts property from liability for debt and (iii) Tenant specifically waives any  rights of redemption or reinstatement available by law or any successor law.  (c) If an Event of Default on the part of Tenant shall have occurred hereunder and be continuing, then,  without thereby waiving such default, Landlord may, but shall be under no obligation to, take all action, including  entry upon the Premises, to perform the obligation of Tenant hereunder immediately and without notice in the case  of any emergency as may be reasonably determined by Landlord and upon five (5) business days notice to Tenant in  other cases. All reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys’  fees and expenses (including those incurred in connection with any appellate proceedings), shall constitute  Additional Rent under this Lease and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.  In the event of an Event of  Default, Landlord will be entitled to retain as damages: (i) all of Landlord's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses  incurred in obtaining possession of the Premises and reletting the Premises, including reasonable attorneys' fees,  outside brokerage commissions, and the cost of any repairs required to be made to the Premises which are Tenant's  obligations hereunder, and (ii) the difference between the Rent thereafter becoming due under the Lease, and the  proceeds from reletting the Premises.     (d) The late rate (“Late Rate”) shall be the lesser of (i) three percent (3%) per annum or (ii) the  maximum rate permitted by applicable law.  If Tenant shall fail to pay when due any Basic Rent, Additional Rent or  other sum required to be paid by Tenant hereunder within ten (10) days following the date on which same is due,  Landlord shall be entitled to collect from Tenant as Additional Rent and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to  such Basic Rent, Additional Rent or other sum, interest on the delinquency equal to the Late Rate from the date due  until paid.  In addition, Landlord may, at its option, charge Tenant a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the  overdue amount as liquidated damages (“Late Charge”) to compensate Landlord for potential inability to meet  financial obligations and the additional expense of handling delinquent payments (the exact amount of Landlord’s  injury being impractical to calculate).    Section 7.04 Landlord Default.  Landlord shall not be deemed in default of this Lease unless Landlord  fails within a reasonable time to perform an obligation required to be performed by Landlord under the provisions of this  Lease.  For purposes of this Section, a reasonable time shall in no event be less than thirty (30) days after receipt by  Landlord, and by the holders of any ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises whose name and  address shall have been furnished to Tenant in writing for such purpose, of written notice specifying wherein such  obligation of Landlord has not been performed; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's obligation is such that  more than thirty (30) days after such notice are reasonably required for its performance, then Landlord shall not be in  breach of this Lease if performance is commenced within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter reasonably pursued  to completion.

Exhibit 4.2

DESCRIPTION OF THE REGISTRANT’S SECURITIES
REGISTERED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 OF THE
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

Lumos Pharma, Inc. (the “Company”, “Lumos”, “we”, “our” or “us”) has one class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”): our common stock. The following summary of the terms of our common stock, is based upon our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended (the “Charter”), and our amended and restated bylaws (the “Bylaws”). This summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by express reference to, the applicable provisions of our Charter and our Bylaws, which are filed as exhibits to our Annual Report on Form 10-K, of which this Exhibit 4.2 is a part, and are incorporated by reference herein. We encourage you to read our Charter, our Bylaws and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) for more information.

General
Under our Charter, we are authorized to issue up to 75,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of our preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. Our board of directors may establish the rights and preferences of the preferred stock from time to time. As of December 31, 2020, we had outstanding 8,293,821 shares of common stock and no shares of preferred stock outstanding or designated.

Lumos’ common stock

Voting Rights

Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors, other than any amendment to the Charter that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of preferred stock, except as otherwise required by law. Our Charter and our Bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting rights. Because of this, the holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors can elect all of the directors standing for election, if they should so choose.

Dividends

Subject to preferences that may apply to any outstanding preferred stock, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably any dividends that our board of directors may declare out of funds legally available for that purpose on a non-cumulative basis.

Liquidation

In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred stock.

Rights and Preferences

Holders of our common stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or other rights, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of our common stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of the holders of shares of any series of our preferred stock that we may designate in the future.

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Computershare Shareowners Services, LLC.

Listing

Our common stock is listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “LUMO.” 

Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Lumos Charter Documents

Among other things, our Charter and our Bylaws provide for the following:

Our board of directors may issue up to 5,000,000 shares of our preferred stock, with such rights, preferences and privileges as the board of directors may designate.

The personal liability for monetary damages of our directors to us and to our stockholders is limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including, without limitation, the DGCL. This provision may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and may discourage or deter stockholders or management from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duty.

Special meetings of stockholders may only be called by our board of directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors, the chairman of the board of directors, or the chief executive officer. In addition, our Bylaws establish procedures, including requirements for advance written notice and the form and content for stockholder notices, with regard to the nomination of candidates for election as directors and stockholder proposals. These provisions may delay or preclude stockholders from bringing matters before a meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at a meeting of stockholders, which could delay or deter takeover attempts or changes in management.

Our board of directors is divided into three classes of directors, with each class serving staggered three-year terms. As a result, approximately one-third of the board of directors will be elected each year. The classified board provision could have the effect of discouraging a third party from making a tender offer or attempting to obtain control of us. In addition, the classified board provision could delay stockholders who do not agree with the policies of the board of directors from removing a majority of the board of directors for two years.

Our Charter does not provide for cumulative voting for our directors. The absence of cumulative voting may make it more difficult for stockholders owning less than a majority of our stock to elect any directors to our board of directors. In addition, directors may be removed only for cause, and removal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of 66 2/3% of our voting stock.

Subject to the rights of the holders of any outstanding series of our preferred stock, all vacancies, including newly created directorships, may, except as otherwise required by law, be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of our directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, unless the board of directors determines by resolution that any such vacancies will be filled by the stockholders. In addition, the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of our board of directors.

Stockholders are permitted to amend our Bylaws only upon receiving at least 66 2/3% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of all outstanding shares then entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

The combination of these provisions will make it more difficult for our existing stockholders to replace our board of directors as well as for another party to obtain control of us by replacing our board of directors. Because our board of directors has the power to retain and discharge our officers, these provisions could also make it more difficult for 

existing stockholders or another party to effect a change in management. In addition, the authorization of undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change our control.

These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continued stability in the composition of our board of directors and its policies and to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to reduce our vulnerability to hostile takeovers and to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, such provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and may have the effect of delaying changes in our control or management. As a consequence, these provisions may also inhibit fluctuations in the market price of our stock that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts. We believe that the benefits of these provisions, including increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure our company, outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging takeover proposals, because negotiation of takeover proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law

We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, with the following exceptions:

•     before such date, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder;

•     upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction began, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding, but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder, those shares owned (i) by persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

•     on or after such date, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

In general, Section 203 defines a “business combination” to include the following:

•     any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder;

•     any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder;

•     subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder;

•     any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock or any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or

•     the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits by or through the corporation.

In general, Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as an entity or person who, together with the entity or person’s affiliates and associates, beneficially owns, or is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and within three years prior to the time of determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation.
