Exhibit 4.3

 

This Security is in global form within the meaning of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture hereinafter referred to and is registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”), or a nominee of DTC, which may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent thereof as owner and holder of this Security for all purposes.

 

Notwithstanding any other term of the Securities represented by this Global Security or the Senior Debt Securities Indenture (as defined herein) or any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between the Issuer and any Holder (including for these purposes each holder of a beneficial interest in the Securities), by its acquisition of the Securities, each Holder of the Securities acknowledges, accepts, agrees to be bound by and consents to: (a) the effect of the exercise of any UK Bail-in Power (as defined herein) by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority (as defined herein), whether or not imposed with prior notice, that may include and result in:  (i) the reduction of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due (as defined herein); (ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the Securities into the Issuer’s or another Person’s shares, other securities or other obligations (and the issue to or conferral on the Holder of the Securities of such shares, other securities or other obligations) including by means of an amendment, modification or variation of the terms of the Securities; (iii) the cancellation of the Securities; and/or (iv) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the Securities or the amount of interest payable on the Securities, or the date on which the interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; and (b) the variation, if necessary, of the terms of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture or the Securities to give effect to the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority.

 

Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of DTC to the Issuer or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.

 

Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive form in the limited circumstances referred to in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, this Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by DTC to a nominee of DTC or by a nominee of DTC to DTC or another nominee of DTC or by DTC or any such nominee to a successor depositary or a nominee of such successor depositary.

SANTANDER UK GROUP HOLDINGS PLC

Floating Rate Notes due [   ]

 

Santander UK Group Holdings plc, a public limited company incorporated in England and Wales (hereinafter called the “Issuer,” which term shall include any successor entity under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC, or registered assigns, upon presentation, the principal sum of [   ] ($[   ]) on [   ] (the “Maturity Date”) and to pay interest thereon from [   ], or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly in arrears on [   ], [   ], [   ] and [   ] in each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), and on the Maturity Date, commencing on [   ]  to, but excluding, the next Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be.  This Security will bear interest from [   ], to, but excluding, [   ], at an initial interest rate of LIBOR (as defined on the reverse hereof) plus [   ] % per annum and thereafter at an interest rate that will be reset quarterly on [   ], [   ], [   ] and [   ] of each year (each, an “Interest Reset Date”), commencing [   ], equal to LIBOR plus [   ] % per annum, until the entire principal hereof is paid or made available for payment.

 

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) preceding the related Interest Payment Date.  Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Issuer, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture.

 

Payment of the principal of and interest on and any Additional Amounts in respect of this Global Security will be paid to DTC for the purpose of permitting DTC to credit the principal and interest received by it in respect of this Global Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners thereof; provided, however, that if this Security is not a Global Security, payment of the principal of, interest on and Additional Amounts, if any, in respect of this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Trustee in The City of New York, or elsewhere as provided in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; and provided, further, that at the option of the Issuer payment of interest may be made by (a) check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Register or (b) transfer to an account of the Person entitled thereto located inside the United States.

 

If any Interest Payment Date for this Security would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, then the Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon will continue to accrue to but excluding such succeeding Business Day, except that if that Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day and interest thereon will accrue to but excluding such preceding Business Day.  If the Maturity Date or Redemption Date would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, then the payment of interest and principal will be made on the next succeeding Business Day,

 

2

 

but no additional interest shall be paid unless the Issuer fails to make payment on such next succeeding Business Day.

 

If any Interest Reset Date would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, except that if that Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, the Interest Reset Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day.

 

All amounts of principal, and premium, if any, and interest, on the Securities will be paid by the Issuer without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any and all present and future income, stamp and other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Taxes”) now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of the country in which the Issuer is organized or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax (the “Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless such deduction or withholding is required by fiscal or other laws, regulations and directives.  For the purposes of this Security, the phrase “fiscal or other laws, regulations and directives” shall include any obligation of the Issuer to withhold or deduct from a payment pursuant to an agreement described in Section 1471(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or otherwise imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, any regulations thereunder or official interpretations thereof or any law implementing an intergovernmental approach thereto (collectively, “FATCA”).  If deduction or withholding of any such Taxes shall at any time be required by the Taxing Jurisdiction, the Issuer will pay such additional amounts of, or in respect of, the principal amount of, premium, if any, and interest, on the Securities (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts paid to the Holders of the Securities, after such deduction or withholding, shall equal the respective amounts of principal, premium, if any, and interest, which would have been payable in respect of the Securities had no such deduction or withholding been required; provided, however, that the foregoing will not apply to any such Tax which would not have been payable or due but for the fact that:

 

(i)            the Holder or the beneficial owner of this Security is a domiciliary, national or resident of, or engaging in business or maintaining a permanent establishment or physically present in, the Taxing Jurisdiction or otherwise has some connection with the Taxing Jurisdiction other than the holding or ownership of this Security, or the collection of any payment of (or in respect of) principal of, premium, if any, or interest, on this Security;

 

(ii)           except in the case of a winding-up of the Issuer in the United Kingdom, this Security is presented (where presentation is required) for payment in the United Kingdom;

 

(iii)          this Security is presented (where presentation is required) for payment more than 30 days after the date payment became due or was provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to such Additional Amount on presenting (where presentation is required) the same for payment at the close of such 30 day period;

 

(iv)          the Holder or the beneficial owner of this Security or the beneficial owner of any payment of (or in respect of) principal of, or interest, on this Security failed to comply with a request of the Issuer or its liquidator or other authorized person addressed to the Holder (x) to provide information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder or such beneficial owner or (y) to make any declaration or other similar claim to satisfy any information requirement, which in the case of (x) or (y), is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

 

(v)           the withholding or deduction is imposed on a payment to or for the benefit of an individual and is required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC,

 

3

 

as amended, or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such directive;

 

(vi)          this Security is presented (where presentation is required) for payment by or on behalf of a holder who would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting (where presentation is required) this Security to another paying agent in a Member State of the European Union; or

 

(vii)         any combination of subclauses (i) through (vi) above;

 

nor shall Additional Amounts be paid with respect to the principal of, and interest on, the Securities to any holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of any Taxing Jurisdiction to be included in the income for tax purposes of a beneficiary or partner or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to such Additional Amounts, had it been the holder.  For the avoidance of doubt, all payments in respect of the Securities will be made subject to any withholding or deduction required pursuant to any fiscal or other laws, regulations and directives, including FATCA, and the Issuer shall not be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the principal of, interest and any other payments on, the Securities on account of any such deduction or withholding required pursuant to FATCA.

 

Whenever in this Security there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, on, or in respect of, the Securities such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for herein to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions hereof and as if express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) were made in any provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

 

A “Business Day” is any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York or London, England are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close.

 

Additional provisions of this Security are set forth following the signature page hereof, which provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

 

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or on behalf of the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

Floating Rate Notes due [   ]

 

This Security is one or all of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Issuer (herein called the “Securities”), initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $[    ], issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of October 9, 2015 (herein called the “Senior Debt Securities Indenture”), between the Issuer and Law Debenture Trust Company of New York, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture), to which Senior Debt Securities Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitation of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.  This Security is one or all of the series designated as the “Floating Rate Notes due [   ].” All terms used in this Security that are defined in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture.

 

The calculation agent, who shall be [       ], or its successor appointed by the Issuer, will determine the initial interest rate by reference to LIBOR on the second London Banking Day preceding the issue date and the interest rate for each succeeding Interest Reset Date by reference to LIBOR on the second London Banking Day preceding the applicable Interest Reset Date (each, an “Interest Determination Date”).  Promptly upon such determination, the calculation agent will notify the Issuer and the Trustee (if the calculation agent is not the same entity as the Trustee) of the new interest rate.  Upon the request of a holder of this Security, the calculation agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.

 

“BBA” means the British Bankers’ Association.

 

A “London Banking Day” means any day on which dealings in U.S. Dollars are transacted in the London interbank market.

 

“LIBOR” means, as of any Interest Determination Date:

 

(1)                     the offered quotation to leading banks in the London interbank market for three-month U.S. Dollar deposits (i) as defined by (A) the BBA, (B) its successor in such capacity, such as NYSE Euronext Rate Administration Ltd., or (C) such other person assuming the responsibility of the BBA or its successor in calculating the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate in the event the BBA or its successor no longer do so, and (ii) as calculated by their appointed calculation agent and published, as such rate appears on either the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service page LIBOR01 (or a successor page on such service) or, if such rate is not available, on such other information system that provides such information, in each case as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date;

 

(2)                     if no such rate is so published, then the rate for such Interest Determination Date shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded to five decimal places, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of the rates for three-month U.S. Dollar deposits quoted by the Reference Banks to the calculation agent as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date (it being understood that at least two such quotes must have been so provided to the calculation agent); or

 

(3)                     if LIBOR cannot be determined on such Interest Determination Date using the foregoing methods, then LIBOR on such Interest Determination Date shall be LIBOR in effect as determined using the foregoing methods for the first calendar day preceding such Interest Determination Date on which LIBOR can be so determined.

 

6

 

“Reference Banks” means each of four major reference banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Issuer.

 

The amount of interest accrued on this Security to each Interest Payment Date will be calculated by multiplying the principal amount of this Security by an accrued interest factor.  The accrued interest factor will be equal to the sum of the interest factors calculated for each day in the period for which interest is being paid.  The interest factor for each day is equal to the interest rate applicable to that day divided by 360.  The interest rate in effect on any Interest Reset Date will be the applicable rate as reset on that date.  The interest rate applicable to any other day is the interest rate from the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date, or, if none, the initial interest rate.

 

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, the Issuer will have the option to redeem the Securities in whole on any Interest Payment Date, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, together with accrued but unpaid interest, if any, in respect of the Securities to the date fixed for redemption (or, in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities, the accreted face amount thereof, together with accrued interest, if any), if, at any time, the Issuer shall determine that as a result of a change in or amendment to the laws or regulations of the Taxing Jurisdiction (including any treaty to which such Taxing Jurisdiction is a party), or, based upon a written legal opinion of independent United Kingdom counsel of recognized standing as set forth in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, any change in the official application or interpretation of such laws or regulations (including a decision of any court or tribunal) which change or amendment becomes effective on or after a date included in the terms of such Securities:

 

(a)           in making payment under the Securities in respect of principal or premium, if any, or interest, if any, it has or will or would on the next Interest Payment Date become obligated to pay Additional Amounts;

 

(b)           any payment of Interest on an Interest Payment Date in respect of the Securities has been treated as a “distribution”, or the payment of interest on the next Interest Payment Date in respect of any of the Securities would be treated as a “distribution,” in each case within the meaning of Section 1000 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 of the United Kingdom (or any statutory modification or re-enactment thereof for the time being); or

 

(c)           on an Interest Payment Date the Issuer was not entitled, or on the next Interest Payment Date the Issuer  would not be entitled, to claim a deduction in respect of such payment of interest in computing its United Kingdom taxation liabilities (or the value of such deduction to the Issuer would be materially reduced).

 

In the event of a redemption as described in the paragraphs above, notice of such redemption to the Holders of the Securities of any series to be redeemed in whole but not in part at the option of the Issuer shall be given by mailing notice of such redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid, at least 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to such Holders of the Securities of such series at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the Register of the Issuer.

 

The Senior Debt Securities Indenture contains provisions for satisfaction and discharge of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture applicable to the Issuer upon compliance by the Issuer with certain conditions set forth in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, which provisions apply to this Security.

 

If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture.

 

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Senior Debt Securities Indenture or for the appointment of an administrator, receiver or trustee or for any

 

7

 

other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to such Security specifying such Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture; the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of such Security shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name, as Trustee hereunder; such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or security satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity or security has failed to institute any such proceeding; and no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of such Security.  The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

 

The Senior Debt Securities Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer the rights of the Holders of the Securities under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities affected by such amendment.  The Senior Debt Securities Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture and certain past defaults under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture and their consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

 

No reference herein to the Senior Debt Securities Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

 

The Issuer may, from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the Securities, issue additional Securities of this series having the same ranking and same interest rate, Stated Maturity, redemption terms and other terms, except for the price to the public and issue date and first Interest Payment Date, as this Security; provided, however, that such additional Securities must be either treated as part of the same issue of debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes or be issued with an issue price that is no less than the adjusted issue price of this Security at the time of issuance of such additional Securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  Any such additional Securities, together with this Security, will constitute a single series of Senior Debt Securities under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture.

 

As provided in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in any place of payment where the principal of and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Registrar duly executed by the registered Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations containing identical terms and provisions, of a like aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

 

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.  As provided in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, Securities of this series

 

8

 

are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

 

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

 

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

The obligations of the Issuer under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture and this Security and all documents delivered in the name of the Issuer in connection herewith and therewith do not and shall not constitute personal obligations of the directors, officers, employees, agents or shareholders of the Issuer or any of them, and shall not involve any claim against or personal liability on the part of any of them, and all persons including the Trustee shall look solely to the assets of the Issuer for the payment of any claim thereunder or for the performance thereof and shall not seek recourse against such directors, officers, employees, agents or shareholders of the Issuer or any of them or any of their personal assets for such satisfaction.  The performance of the obligations of the Issuer under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture and this Security and all documents delivered in the name of the Issuer in connection therewith shall not be deemed a waiver of any rights or powers of the Issuer or its directors or shareholders under the Issuer’s Memorandum and Articles of Association.

 

Notwithstanding any other term of the Securities or the Senior Debt Securities Indenture or any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between the Issuer and any Holder of the Securities (including for these purposes each holder of a beneficial interest in the Securities), by its acquisition of the Securities, each Holder of the Securities acknowledges, accepts, agrees to be bound by and consents to:

 

(a) the effect of the exercise of any UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority, whether or not imposed with prior notice, that may include and result in:  (i) the reduction of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due; (ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due on the Securities into the Issuer’s or another Person’s shares, other securities or other obligations (and the issue to or conferral on the Holder of the Securities of such shares, other securities or other obligations) including by means of an amendment, modification or variation of the terms of the Securities; (iii) the cancellation of the Securities; and/or (iv) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the Securities or the amount of interest payable on the Securities, or the date on which the interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; and

 

(b) the variation, if necessary, of the terms of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture or the Securities to give effect to the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority.

 

No Amounts Due on the Securities will become due and payable or be paid after the exercise of any UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority if and to the extent such Amounts Due have been reduced, converted, cancelled, amended or altered as a result of such exercise.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture or the Securities, neither a reduction or cancellation, in part or in full, of the Amounts Due, the conversion thereof into another security or obligation of the Issuer or another Person, as a result of the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority with respect to the Issuer, nor the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities will be an Event of Default.

 

9

 

By its acquisition of the Securities, each Holder of the Securities (which for these purposes includes each holder of a beneficial interest in the Securities):(i) to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the Trustee for, agrees not to initiate a suit against the Trustee in respect of, and agrees that the Trustee will not be liable for, any action that the Trustee takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities;

 

(ii) acknowledges and agrees that neither a cancellation or deemed cancellation of the principal or interest (in each case, in whole or in part), nor the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities will give rise to a default for purposes of Section 315(b) (Notice of Default) and Section 315(c) (Duties of the Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust Indenture Act; and

 

(iii) acknowledges and agrees that, upon the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority:

 

(A) the Trustee shall not be required to take any further directions from the Holders of the Securities with respect to any portion of the Securities that are written-down, converted to equity and/or cancelled under Section 5.12 of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, and

 

(B) the Senior Debt Securities Indenture shall not impose any duties upon the Trustee whatsoever with respect to the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority.

 

Notwithstanding clause (iii), if, following the completion of the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority, the Securities remain Outstanding (for example, if the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power results in only a partial write-down of the principal of the Securities), then the Trustee’s duties under the Senior Debt Securities Indenture shall remain applicable with respect to such Securities following such completion to the extent the Issuer and the Trustee shall agree pursuant to a supplemental indenture or an amendment to the Senior Debt Securities Indenture; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority, so long as the Securities remain Outstanding, there will at all times be a Trustee for the Securities in accordance with, Section 6.09 of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, and the resignation and/or removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee will continue to be governed by Sections 6.10 and 6.11 of the Senior Debt Securities Indenture, respectively, including to the extent no additional supplemental indenture or amendment is agreed upon in the event the Securities remain Outstanding following the completion of the exercise of the Bail-in Power.

 

Upon the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the Relevant UK Resolution Authority with respect to the Securities, the Issuer will provide a written notice to DTC as soon as practicable regarding such exercise of the UK Bail-in Power for the purposes of notifying the Holders of such occurrence. The Issuer will also deliver a copy of such notice to the Trustee for information purposes. Each Holder of the Securities (including for these purposes each holder of a beneficial interest in the Securities) shall be deemed to have authorized, directed and requested DTC and any direct participant in DTC or other intermediary through which it holds the Securities to take any and all necessary action, if required, to implement the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power with respect to the Securities as it may be imposed, without any further action or direction on the part of such Holder, the Trustee or the Paying Agent.

Lease of Premises.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Granting Clause. In consideration of the obligation of Tenant to pay the Rent (as hereinafter defined) and in consideration of the other terms, covenants and conditions hereof, Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant leases from Landlord space in Landlord’s building described in Paragraph 1(a) above (the “Building”), located on a tract of land in the City and State re ferenced in Paragraph 1(a) above (the “Land”), containing the amount of square feet of leasable area set forth in Paragraph 1(b) above. The Premises are located in the Building as shown on the floor plan attached as Exhibit “A” (the “Premises”), and consist of 59,469 rentable square feet of space on floors 20-22 of the Building. The parties acknowledge that the Premises contain the leased area specified in Paragraph 1(b) above, which includes the floor area in the Premises plus a proportionate portion of the lobbies, corridors, halls, stairways, elevators, restrooms, storage areas and other areas and improvements within the Building provided by Landlord for the general use in common of lessees within the Building (collectively, the “Leased Area”), The Leased Area designated in Paragraph 1(b) above is stipulated and agreed to by Landlord and Tenant to be the area used for purposes of calculation of the Rent hereunder, regardless of any contrary measurements that may be made by Tenant or any other person at any time, and Tenant expressly acknowledges that prior to its execution of this Lease it has had opportunity to make an independent measurement and evaluation of such stipulated Leased Area and, accordingly, hereby waives any right it may have, whether pursuant to applicable law or otherwise, hereafter to challenge same or otherwise make objection thereto. Tenant shall also have exclusive use of the approximately 2,672 square foot patio on the 22nd floor located adjacent to (and shall comprise part of) the Premises (the “Patio Space”) at no additional cost. The Patio Space shall not count as square footage “leased” or “occupied” by Tenant and no construction allowance or other concession shall be payable with respect to same. At Tenant’s sole expense, Tenant shall repair and maintain (except as provided in the next sentence), and keep in a good, clean condition the Patio Space and all landscaping, improvements and personal property thereon. Landlord, at its expense, shall be responsible for all structural maintenance and repair of the Patio Space.

	
 
	
(b)
	
Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants and agrees that upon Tenant’s paying the Rent and performing all of the other terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Lease, Tenant shall, subject to the terms of this Lease and all zoning ordinances and other laws and regulations governing or regulating the use of the Premises and all easements, rights-of-way and prescriptive rights, and all presently recorded instruments which affect the Premises, peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term (as hereinafter defined).

3.
	
Term. This Lease shall continue in full force and effect, unless sooner terminated as herein provided, for the lease term specified in Paragraph 1(c) above (the “Term”), beginning on the Commencement Date stated in Section 1(c) (the “Commencement Date”). Landlord intends to tender possession of the Premises to Tenant so that Tenant may perform Tenant’s Work on June 1, 2012. Tenant agrees that if Landlord fails to deliver the Premises to Tenant on June 1, 2012 for any reason other than delay caused by Tenant, including, without limitation, the failure for any reason of the prior tenant thereof (the “Prior Tenant”) to vacate or surrender the Premises, then (a) the Commencement Date shall be deferred one day for each day of such delay, (b) the length of the Term shall be sixty (60) full calendar months plus, if the Commencement Date is not September 1, 2012, the odd number of days in the month in which the Commencement Date occurs (which partial month shall be included in the first lease month and Base Rent payable therefore shall be prorated based on the number of days in such month), (c) the Expiration Date shall be deemed changed accordingly, and (d) Tenant shall be entitled to one (1) additional day of abated Base Rent (abated at 100%) for each day of such failure by Landlord. Landlord acknowledges that in conjunction with this Lease, it shall enter into a written agreement with the Prior Tenant to vacate the Premises no later than June 1, 2012. In the event that Landlord fails to deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant by August 1, 2012 (“Outside Delivery Date”) for any reason other than delay caused by Tenant, Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon one (1) day prior written notice to Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not have the right to terminate in the event that the Prior Tenant leaves behind a non-material amount of personal property that does not unreasonably delay or interfere with the commencement of Tenant’s Work and for which Landlord promptly makes arrangements to have such property removed or disposed. This right to terminate the lease described in this paragraph shall expire and be null and void on the date Landlord tenders possession of the Premises to Tenant. Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of this Lease other than those requiring payment of Base Rent. The terms of this Section 3 shall be Tenant’s sole remedy in the event Landlord fails to deliver possession timely. 

	
4.
	
Acceptance and Use of the Premises.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Office Use. Tenant covenants and agrees that the Premises shall be used for general office purposes only and for no other purpose. Tenant’s acceptance of occupancy from Landlord shall constitute acknowledgment by Tenant that Tenant has inspected the Premises and that the Premises are suitable for Tenant’s intended use thereof and that Tenant accepts the Premises in “AS IS” condition. Tenant recognizes and agrees that Landlord is making no warranties, express or implied, as to the present or future suitability of the Premises for any particular use other than general office use.

	
 
	
(b)
	
Prohibited Activities. Tenant shall not use or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises in any manner which: (i) is unlawful or is in violation of any applicable legal or governmental requirement, ordinance or rule; (ii) may be dangerous to persons or property; (iii) may invalidate or increase the amount of premiums for any insurance policy affecting the Building (collectively “Material Insurance Change”) (and if, the foregoing notwithstanding, any additional amounts of insurance premiums are so incurred, Tenant shall pay Landlord such additional amounts on demand as Additional Rent (as hereinafter defined), provided that such payments shall not authorize such use and provided Tenant did not cure Landlord’s prior written notice to Tenant of Material Insurance Change); (iv) may create a nuisance, disturb other lessees of the Building or occupants of neighboring properties, or injure the reputation of the Building; or (v) violates the Rules and Regulations (as hereinafter defined) or any restriction, covenant or encumbrance of record affecting the Building. Without limiting the generality of this Paragraph 4, Tenant may only use or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises for educational or school purposes provided (x) such use is only incidental to Tenant’s primary use and (y) Tenant complies with a previously granted exclusive at the Building that states in pertinent part as follows:

“[No] space in the Building [may be used for] (x) a school occupying more than 10,000 rentable square feet in the Building or (y) a school of any size that primarily teaches digital arts, entertainment technology, film, computer animation or recording arts.”

Tenant shall be responsible for and pay to Landlord as Additional Rent upon demand any costs incurred by Landlord by reason of misuse and/or damage to the Premises or any portion of the Building caused by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees. All such restrictions and Rules and Regulations shall be enforced in a non-arbitrary manner among all tenants and other occupants of the Building.

5.
	
Monthly Rent, Additional Rent, etc. 

	
 
	
(a)
	
Rent. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord at the address specified in Paragraph 1(d) above, or at such other place reasonably designated from time to time in writing by Landlord, the Monthly Base Rent as specified in Paragraph 1(c) above and any Additional Rent (collectively, the “Rent”). As used herein, the term “Additional Rent” shall mean (i) any sales, use or other tax, excluding federal or state income taxes applicable to Landlord or Landlord’s personal property, now or hereafter imposed upon rents or other sums due to Landlord under this Lease, (ii) the amounts owed by Tenant as specified in Paragraph 6 hereof, (iii) any sum owed for costs incurred by Landlord which are in excess of the sum of any Tenant improvement allowance upon which Landlord and Tenant have agreed, if any, (iv) any sum owed for excess utilities, if any, under Paragraph 7 hereof, and (v) any other sums owed by Tenant pursuant to this Lease or in connection with Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises. The Rent is due in advance on the first day of each month without notice or demand and without any deduction or offset. The Rent for any partial Lease month shall be prorated. Tenant’s obligation to pay the Rent to Landlord shall be independent of every other covenant or obligation under this Lease.

	
 
	
(b)
	
Escalation. Each period of twelve (12) full calendar months during the Term, commencing on the Commencement Date, is herein referred to as a “Lease Year” (and the first Lease Year includes any fractional calendar month at the beginning of the Term). The Monthly Base Rent for each Lease Year after the first Lease Year shall be increased as shown in Paragraph 1(c) above. Accordingly, if the Commencement Date is other than the first day of a month, the first adjustment of the Monthly Base Rent pursuant hereto (i.e., the first day of the second Lease Year) shall be made on the twelfth month anniversary of the first day of the month following the month in which the Commencement Date falls and annual adjustments of the Monthly Base Rent thereafter (i.e., the first day of each Lease Year) shall be made on each anniversary of the date of such first adjustment date.

	
 
	
(c)
	
Late Charges; Partial Rent Payment. All delinquent Rent or other sums due from Tenant to Landlord shall bear interest at the greater of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law or the Prime Rate as published by JP Morgan Chase plus 7%, whichever is less, from the date due until paid. Tenant shall pay a charge equal to $50.00 per returned check or the amount to which Landlord is entitled under state law, whichever is greater. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no late fees and charges shall exceed the amounts permitted by applicable law. Tenant expressly agrees and acknowledges that Landlord’s acceptance at any time of any partial Rent payment and/or Landlord’s application of any portion thereof, at Landlord’s discretion, to the interest and/or late payment service charge associated therewith shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of its right to receive and, if necessary, seek and obtain, through any means available to Landlord, whether hereunder or pursuant to applicable law, the entirety of the subject Rent payment.

	
 
	
(d)
	
Rent Abatement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided Tenant is not in Default under this Lease, one half (1/2) of Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent shall be abated (“Abated Rent”) during the first six (6) calendar months after the Commencement Date (the “Abatement Period”). To illustrate, if the Commencement Date occurs on September 5, 2012, then the Abatement Period will commence on the Commencement Date and end on March 4, 2013. If the Abatement Period does not end on the last day of a calendar month, then on the day following the Abatement Period, Tenant shall make a prorated Base Rent payment for the remainder of such month. Tenant may be entitled to additional rent abatement following the Abatement Period pursuant to Section 3 above in the event Landlord is late in tendering possession of the Premises.

	
6.
	
Operating Costs Adjustment.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Definitions: The terms identified by this Paragraph 6 shall have the following meaning with respect to the provisions of this Lease:

If at any time during the term of this Lease the method of taxation prevailing at the commencement of the term hereof shall be altered so that any new tax, assessment, levy, imposition or charge, or any part thereof, shall be measured by or be based in whole or in part upon the Premises and/or any portion of the Building, the Premises and/or any portion of the Building, or the rent, additional rent or other income there from and shall be imposed upon the Landlord, then all such taxes, assessments, levies, impositions or charges, or the part thereof, to the extent that they are so measured or based, shall be deemed to be included within the term Real Estate Taxes for the purposes hereof, to the extent that such Real Estate Taxes would be payable if the Real Estate were the only property of Landlord subject to such Taxes.

If the Building is less than 95% occupied or in the event Landlord is providing services to less than 95% of the Building during any calendar year, the Operating Expenses for the year in question that vary with occupancy, limited to expenses associated with janitorial, janitorial supplies, waste removal, utilities other than electricity, up to 35% of the common area electricity costs, and management fees, shall be adjusted to reflect a ninety-five percent (95%) occupancy or service level, as the case may be, of the Building.

5

 

 

	
 
	
(5)
	
Real Estate Taxes, Operating Expenses and Utilities may be referred to hereinafter in this Paragraph 6 collectively as the “Common Expenses”. 

	
 
	
(6)
	
Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Tenant’s monthly obligation hereunder with respect to the Common Expenses beginning with the first month of the Term shall be the amount set forth in Paragraph 6(b) below, which shall be subject to reconciliation and adjustment as provided in Paragraph 6(b) below.

	
 
	
(b)
	
Adjustment Mechanism:

	
 
	
(1)
	
During each calendar year of the Term, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord an amount (the “Expense Payment”) equal to Tenant’s Prorata Share of the amount of the increase in each of the categories of Operating Expenses, Real Estate Taxes and Utilities over the Base Year expenses for each such category of the Common Expenses. The estimated Expense Payment for the year 2012 currently is, for Real Estate Taxes, the amount of $4.31 per r.s.f. and for Operating Expenses, the amount of $7.33 per r.s.f. It is hereby agreed that the expenses constituting Operating Expenses, Real Estate Taxes and Utilities shall be segregated from one another and calculated independently, and if the actual expense for any one of the three categories of Common Expenses is less than the Base Year expense for that category, such decrease shall not be netted against any increase from any other category of the Common Expenses. Operating Expenses shall be calculated in accordance with sound accounting principles, consistently applied.

	
 
	
(2)
	
Beginning with the first month of the first calendar year following the Base Year and continuing on each succeeding month during the Term subject to adjustment by Landlord on the first month of each succeeding calendar year during the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly on the first day of each month an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the estimated Expense Payment for the new calendar year as reasonably estimated by Landlord. Landlord shall provide a statement of such estimated Expense Payment to Tenant upon Landlord’s determination thereof, which estimate may be reasonably adjusted from time to time. Until Tenant receives such statement, Tenant’s monthly payment for the new calendar year shall continue to be paid at the then current rate; however, Tenant shall begin making the new monthly estimated Expense Payment beginning on the first day of the month following the month in which Tenant receives such statement, which shall be on or before May 1. Notwithstanding when such statement is received, Tenant acknowledges its obligations for and agrees to pay when billed the new monthly estimate of the Expense Payment for each new calendar year retroactive to the commencement of such new calendar year.

	
 
	
(3)
	
As soon as practicable following the end of each calendar year during the Term but no later than May 1 (provided that the annual statement may be provided as late as September 1 so long as Landlord is actively pursuing completion of such statement), beginning with the end of the calendar year following the Base Year, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a statement (the “Common Expenses Statement”) setting forth the actual amount of the Expense Payment for the calendar year just completed. To the extent that the Expense Payment for the period covered by such Common Expenses Statement exceeds the monthly- billed estimates thereof for the calendar year just completed, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the difference within thirty (30) days following its receipt of such Common Expenses Statement from Landlord. To the extent that the Expense Payment for the period covered by such Common Expenses Statement is less than the monthly-billed estimates thereof for the calendar year just completed, Landlord shall credit the difference against the estimated Expense Payment owed by Tenant for the then current calendar year, except during the last year of the term, in which case Landlord shall pay Tenant for any such outstanding amount.

	
 
	
(4)
	
Tenant’s covenant to pay the Expense Payment shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Lease. If the final year of this Lease is less than a full calendar year, then the Expense Payment for such partial calendar year shall be prorated.

	
 
	
(5)
	
After receiving an annual Common Expenses Statement and giving Landlord thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof, Tenant may inspect or audit Landlord’s records relating to Operating Expenses for the period of time covered by such Common Expenses Statement in accordance with the following provisions. If Tenant fails to object to the calculation of Operating Expenses on an annual Common Expenses Statement within ninety (90) days after the statement has been delivered to Tenant or if Tenant fails to conclude its audit or inspection within ninety (90) days after the statement has been delivered to Tenant, then Tenant shall have waived its right to object to the calculation of Operating Expenses for the year in question and the calculation of Operating Expenses set forth on such statement shall be final. Tenant's audit or inspection shall be conducted at the Building, shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Landlord's business, and shall be conducted only during reasonable business hours. Tenant shall pay the cost of such audit or inspection unless the total Operating Expenses for the period in question is determined to be in error by more than 4% in the aggregate, in which case Landlord shall pay the audit cost. Tenant may not conduct an inspection or have an audit performed more than once during any calendar year. If such 

6

 

 

	
 
		
inspection or audit reveals that an error was made in the Operating Expenses previously charged to Tenant, then Landlord shall refund to Tenant any overpayment of such costs, or Tenant shall pay to Landlord any underpayment of such costs, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after notification thereof. Tenant shall maintain the results of each such audit or inspection confidential and shall not be permitted to use any third party to perform such audit or inspection other than an independent firm of certified public accountants with at least ten (10) years of experience reviewing office building expense reconciliations: (1) that is not compensated on a contingency fee basis or in any other manner which is dependent upon the results of such audit or inspection (and Tenant shall deliver the fee agreement or other similar evidence of such fee agreement to Landlord upon request), and(2) that agrees with Landlord in writing to maintain the results of such audit or inspection confidential unless compelled by a court to deliver same. Nothing in this section shall be construed to limit, suspend, or abate Tenant's obligation to pay Rent when due, including Operating Expenses. 

	
 
	
(c)
	
Arbitration. Subject to subparagraph (b)(5) above, any dispute between the parties with respect to a Common Expenses Statement shall be settled by arbitration before a single arbitrator in the city in which the Premises is located and in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association as amended and in effect on the date notice is given of the intention to arbitrate and otherwise in accordance with applicable law. The determination of the arbitrator shall be final, binding and conclusive on all the parties and judgment may be rendered thereon by any court having jurisdiction, upon application of either Landlord or Tenant.

Services.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Description of Services. Landlord shall provide, at Landlord’s expense subject to Landlord’s ability to include same in Operating Expenses, according to customary standards for Class B office buildings of similar kind and quality in downtown Chicago, Illinois: (i) water from regular fixtures in the Building for drinking, lavatory and toilet purposes; (ii) janitorial services in the Premises five (5) days/nights per week (Monday through Friday), excluding national holidays, in accordance with Exhibit “D”, including, without limitation, cleaning and trash removal in the Common Areas (as hereinafter defined); (iii) heating and cooling (HVAC) of the Premises Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and Saturday, 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., excluding the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day (collectively, “Regular Business Hours”) (Building HVAC systems, including the existing rooftop units described in this subsection (a) below that serve the 22nd floor, shall be in good working order on the Effective Date); (iv) manned and electronic security services for the Building 365 days a year; and (v) elevator service to the Premises 365 days a year. HVAC may be provided at other times, at the sole cost and expense of Tenant, paid as Additional Rent, which charge shall be at Landlord’s then standard charge for after-hours HVAC service. The charge for base building after-hours HVAC service is currently $120 per floor per hour, subject to increase from time to time. Such hourly rates shall be based upon Landlord’s cost of providing such services, and shall include a component for Landlord’s overhead, depreciation, maintenance and labor costs in providing such services. If any of Landlord’s other tenants served by the equipment providing such additional service to the Premises request that Landlord simultaneously provide such service to such other tenants, the cost of Landlord providing such additional and concurrent service shall be prorated among all of Landlord’s tenants requesting such service, on a reasonable basis, as determined by Landlord. If the level of occupancy of the Premises, or any machinery or equipment which generates abnormal heat, creates unusual demands on the HVAC system serving the Premises, Landlord shall provide Tenant with written notice thereof. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant’s proposed 24/7 business operations will require installation and operation by Tenant of supplemental HVAC. Consequently, Landlord will reasonably approve Tenant’s installation of supplemental HVAC for the Premises. In the event that Tenant is delayed or unable to obtain a permit for Tenant’s intended supplemental HVAC equipment, then Landlord shall provide Tenant until Tenant installs its supplemental HVAC (not to exceed six (6) months), a fifty percent (50%) discount off Landlord’s standard charge for base building after-hours HVAC service (i.e., 50% off the currently $120 per floor per hour charge described above). If Tenant does not, within five (5) days after receipt of notice from Landlord, take steps, at Tenant’s expense, as shall be necessary to cease adverse effect on the air-conditioning or heating system or to install Tenant’s own Landlord-approved supplemental HVAC system, Landlord shall have the right, in its reasonable discretion, to install supplemental air-conditioning or heating units in the Premises, and the documented, third party cost of such supplemental units (including the cost of acquisition, installation, operation, use and maintenance thereof) shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord in advance or on demand as Additional Rent. Other services requested by Tenant may be provided by Landlord at its sole discretion and charged to Tenant as Additional Rent. Tenant shall have the option to contract with third party janitorial service providers at Tenant’s cost to supplement any necessary janitorial services not otherwise provided by Landlord, provided Tenant’s contractors comply with Building rules, insurance requirements and are union. Subject to availability, at Landlord’s actual cost of providing such services, Landlord may provide condenser water for Tenant’s supplemental cooling needs, provided Tenant pays as Additional Rent Landlord’s then actual charge for condenser water, currently $133.56 per ton per year, subject to increase from time to time. Landlord represents that enough condenser water is available to provide up to 40 tons of supplemental cooling capacity. Landlord’s condenser water charges shall be based upon Landlord’s actual cost of providing such service, and shall include a component for depreciation, maintenance and labor costs in providing such service.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties agree and acknowledge there are two rooftop units which currently service the conference rooms in the Premises as follows: (1) NE Rooftop Unit: Serves conference rooms A & B on the 22nd Floor, reception are on 21 and the conference room west of the reception area on the 21st Floor; and (2) E Center Unit: Serves conference room C on the 22nd Floor. During the Term, Landlord shall permit Tenant to have control of these units by installing separate meters upon Landlord’s preapproval and at Tenant’s reasonable expense. Utility costs for the operation of these units shall be an Operating Expense during Regular Business Hours and at Tenant’s sole expense outside of Regular Business Hours. As stated in Section 8(a) below maintenance of such units shall be Landlord’s responsibility. 

	
 
	
(b)
	
Electricity. Electricity shall be distributed to the Premises by Landlord. Tenant shall obtain all of its electricity from Landlord and shall pay all of Landlord’s charges, which charges shall be based on meter readings and shall not exceed Landlord’s actual charges received from the public utility furnishing such electricity directly to Tenant. All electricity used during the performance of janitor service in the Premises, or the making of any alterations or repairs in the Premises, or the operation of any special air conditioning systems serving the Premises shall be paid for by Tenant. At any time during the Term, Landlord may elect that electricity shall instead be distributed to the Premises directly by an electric utility company serving the Building, in which case Landlord shall make available Landlord’s meters, wire and conduits to be used for such distribution, without cost to Tenant (except related costs included in Operating Expenses). If an electric utility company is distributing electricity to the Premises, Tenant shall make all necessary arrangements with the utility company for metering and paying for electric current furnished to the Premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain and supply whenever necessary redundant electricity in the Building.

	
 
	
(c)
	
Interruption. Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for damages, and the Rent shall not abate, for failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any service in a timely manner due to casualty, condemnation or by reason of force majeure or any other reason other than the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Landlord. Any failure or delay as a result of these reasons shall not be considered an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s quiet enjoyment, use or possession of the Premises. However, if an interruption of service prohibits Tenant from using the Premises, such interruption is within Landlord’s control to remedy, and such interruption continues for more than three (3) consecutive days, then Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent and Additional Rent thereafter shall abate until such service and Tenant’s ability to use the Premises resumes. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises as a result of any such failure, defect or interruption of any such service, or change in the supply, character and/or quantity of, electrical service, and to restore any such services, remedy such situation and minimize any interference with Tenant’s business.

	
8.
	
Maintenance.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Maintenance by Landlord. Subject to the terms of Paragraph 6 above with respect to cost allocation, Landlord shall keep or cause to be kept the (i) foundations, (ii) roof, (iii) Building HVAC system (including the existing HVAC system that exclusively serves the 22nd floor), elevator system, and Building security system, (iv) Building common utility lines providing service to the Building or the Premises, (v) structural portions or the walls of the Building, (vi) the skylight in the north reception area between the 21st and 22nd floors; and (vii) Common Areas in good order, repair and condition except for damage thereto due to the intentional misconduct and/or negligent acts or omissions of Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees. Landlord shall commence required repairs as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving written notice from Tenant thereof. Except as provided in this paragraph, Landlord shall not be obligated to make repairs, replacements or improvements of any kind upon or to the Premises, or to any equipment, merchandise, stock in trade, facilities or fixtures therein, all of which shall be Tenant’s responsibility. Landlord shall employ security for the Building in accordance with Section 7(a) above; provided however Tenant expressly agrees and acknowledges that Landlord’s employment of security shall not be deemed an undertaking by Landlord to ensure the safety of Tenant or any of its agents, employees, contractors, customers or invitees or the property of any such parties.

	
 
	
(b)
	
Maintenance by Tenant. Tenant shall at all times and at Tenant’s sole expense keep all parts of the Premises not required herein to be maintained by Landlord (including, without limitation, Tenant’s supplemental HVAC equipment and satellite dish and related installations) in good order, condition and repair and in a clean, orderly, sanitary and safe condition, damage by unavoidable casualty excepted. Without limitation on the foregoing, Tenant’s obligations shall include, without limitation, doing such things as are necessary to cause the Premises (including, without limitation, fire/life safety systems within the Premises) to comply with all applicable current and future laws, rules, regulations and orders of any federal, state and/or local governmental and public bodies and agencies. If replacement of equipment, fixtures and appurtenances thereto are necessary, Tenant shall replace the same with equipment, fixtures and appurtenances of the same quality and shall repair all damages caused by such replacement.

9.
	
Common Areas. All private sidewalks, lighting facilities, hallways, stairways, lobbies, elevators, restrooms and other areas and improvements provided by Landlord for the general use in common of lessees and their customers in the Building (all herein collectively called the “Common Areas”) shall at all times be subject to the exclusive control and management of Landlord; provided, however, that Landlord’s exclusive control and management of the Common Areas shall not be deemed an undertaking by Landlord to ensure or be a guaranty of the safety of Tenant or any of its agents, employees, contractors, customers or invitees, or the property of any such parties. Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use the Common Areas, in common with other lessees in the Building, subject to the Rules and Regulations (as hereinafter defined). If the size or configuration of the Common Areas is diminished or altered, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant on account thereof nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or reduction or abatement of the Rent, and any such diminution or alteration shall not be considered a constructive or actual eviction. Tenant also agrees that Landlord shall have the right to do and perform such acts in and to the Common Areas as Landlord, in the exercise of its good faith business judgment, shall determine from time to time to be advisable. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Landlord’s control of and acts within the Common Areas do not materially hinder access to, nor materially diminish Tenant’s quiet enjoyment or use of, the Premises. To the extent permitted by law, Tenant may use the Building’s fire stairs connecting the floors of the Premises as convenience stairs for inter-floor access within the Premises. To the extent permitted by law and provided Landlord’s keycards continue to provide access, Tenant may install an internal key card system as part of this right at Tenant’s expense. Landlord may require that any system so installed by Tenant be compliant, compatible, and installed in a coordinated manner with Landlord’s fire and security systems, including giving the main Building system the ability to lock or unlock the doors in the event of an emergency or test. Tenant’s indemnity obligations under Section 18(a) of the Lease are hereby expanded to include accidents or occurrences in or about the stairwell, in addition to in or about the Premises. At Landlord’s request, Tenant shall be required to remove Tenant’s card key access system and restore any damage caused thereby upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease. Any alterations that Tenant desires to perform in the Building’s stairwells must be compliant with code and may only be made with Landlord’s prior written consent. 

	
10.
	
Ordinances And Regulations. Tenant shall comply promptly, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, with all current and future laws, codes, ordinances, rules and/or regulations of any municipal, county, state, federal and/or other governmental authority and any bureau or department thereof, including without limitation Environmental Laws (as hereinafter defined) and the Americans With Disabilities Act (and any and all regulations adopted in connection therewith) and with all applicable requirements of regulatory or other such insurance bodies, and of the Board of Fire Underwriters or any other body exercising similar functions, which may be applicable to the Premises and Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, and shall comply with the requirements of all of Landlord’s policies of insurance at any time in force with respect to the Building.

(a)
	
Except as expressly provided herein, Tenant shall place no signs or advertising matter on the exterior or interior of the Building or at any other location in or about the Building. Initial placement of standard directional and identification signage shall be provided by Landlord to the directory in the Building and individual entry suite identification signage, and subsequent modifications thereto shall be at Tenant’s expense. Any lettering or signs placed on the interior of the Building shall be for directional purposes only, and such signs and lettering shall be of a type, kind, character, location and description, which have been approved by Landlord in writing.

	
 
	
(b)
	
So long as Tenant is not in Default under this Lease, the originally-named Tenant or its Permitted Transferee never leases less than seventy-five percent (75%) of all leasable space on floors 20-22 of the Building, and provided Tenant obtains and maintains at Tenant's expense all necessary permits, licenses and approvals, Tenant shall have the right to install and maintain, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, (i) logo buttons in the passenger elevator cabs serving floors 20-22 of the Building, which buttons must be consistent with Building standard; and (ii) one (1) exterior sign on the Building as shown on Exhibit “E”, subject to the following terms and conditions:

(5)
	
If Tenant requests any assignment or subletting of this Lease, Tenant's rights with respect to the sign as contained herein shall not be transferable or assignable to an assignee or subtenant (other than a Permitted Transferee) without the express prior written consent of Landlord which consent may be granted, withheld or conditioned in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion.

	
 
	
(6)
	
Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or Tenant’s signage rights, unless otherwise directed by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly remove the signage and reimburse Landlord for all costs and expenses associated with restoration of the Building and any damage to the Building caused by such removal. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Tenant shall not be responsible to reimburse Landlord or repair signage damage on the Building existing on the Effective Date caused by prior signage not belonging to Tenant.

	
 
	
(7)
	
Landlord makes no representation or warranty whether the City of Chicago may approve signage for Tenant. Tenant's exterior signage right and logo button signage right are personal to the above-named Tenant and its Permitted Transferees.

Alterations.

	
 
	
(a)
	
General. Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided, Landlord’s consent shall not be necessary for alterations that are non-structural and cosmetic and do not exceed $50,000 in the aggregate over a twelve (12) month period. Tenant shall permit no lien or claim for lien of a mechanic, laborer, or supplier or any other lien to be filed against the Premises and/or any portion of the Building arising out of work performed, or alleged to have been performed by, at the direction of or on behalf of Tenant. The interest of Landlord in the Land and the Building shall not be subject to liens for improvements made by Tenant or by persons claiming by, through or under Tenant, and Tenant agrees it shall notify any person making any improvements on its behalf of this provision. If requested by Landlord, Tenant shall provide to Landlord, prior to the commencement by Tenant of any alterations to the Premises as contemplated hereby, evidence reasonably satisfactory to Landlord of Tenant’s ability to pay for such work and materials in full. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless (except where such accident, injury, death or loss results from the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees, or contractors) from and against all claims and liabilities of every kind, nature and description which may arise out of or in any way be connected with such work. Should any claim of lien or other lien be filed against the Premises or the Building by reason of any act or omission of Tenant or any of Tenant’s agents, employees, contractors or representatives, then Tenant shall cause the same to be canceled and discharged of record or shall deliver to Landlord a bond or other security satisfactory to Landlord within twenty-one (21) days after the filing thereof. Should Tenant fail to discharge such lien or deliver such security within such twenty-one (21) day period, then Landlord may discharge the same, in which event Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, on demand, as Additional Rent, for the amount of the lien or the amount of the bond, if greater, plus all administrative costs incurred by Landlord in connection therewith. The remedies provided herein shall be in addition to all other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or otherwise. Tenant expressly agrees and acknowledges that in the course of the performance by it of any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises pursuant hereto, and all at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, it shall obtain all necessary governmental permits and certificates for the commencement and completion and for final approval thereof and it shall comply with all laws, codes, ordinances, rules and regulations of any municipal, county, state, federal and/or other governmental authority and/or any bureau or department thereof which relate (s) thereto and/or whose requirements may be triggered on account thereof, including, without limitation, the Americans With Disabilities Act (and any and all regulations adopted in connection therewith) and with all applicable requirements of insurance bodies and as any of such laws, codes, ordinances, rules and/or regulations may relate to, otherwise affect and/or precipitate the need for any modifications in and/or to the Common Areas and/or the Building arising from the performance by Tenant of any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises hereunder.

10

 

 

	
 
	
(b)
	
Telecommunications Improvements. 

	
 
	
(1)
	
If at any time during the Term, or any renewal thereof, Tenant contracts with or makes arrangements for service with an applications service provider (“ASP”), defined as any entity providing telephone, internet, video, cable and/or other broadband related services (the “Services”), which ASP does not have a contractual relationship with Landlord and/or any incumbent telecommunications provider (“CLEC” or “ILEC”) that does not already have an easement with respect to the Land and/or the Building (or other such similar contractual relationship or right to be present or have access to the Land and/or the Building), and which must gain and/or maintain a physical presence in the Premises and/or on the Land and/or the Building in some manner in order to provide the Services to Tenant, Tenant must notify Landlord in writing, identifying the name and contact information of such ASP, and obtain Landlord’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Landlord and the named ASP shall then negotiate and execute a telecommunications service agreement (“TSA”) allowing the ASP to access the Building and/or the Premises, as the case may be.

	
 
	
(2)
	
Additionally, if Tenant is, itself, an ASP, CLEC, ILEC, or otherwise capable of providing the Services, and desires to install fiber or other wiring or wireless solutions throughout the Premises and/or the Building, Tenant must notify Landlord in writing, obtain Landlord’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate and execute a TSA with respect to such installation.

	
 
	
(3)
	
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant contracts with an ASP, CLEC or ILEC with which Landlord does have a contractual relationship, or which does have an easement or other such right to gain access or be otherwise present on the Land and/or the Building, but which does not presently have the necessary equipment, wiring and/or fiber optics running to the Premises, and which will have to make any alteration or improvement to the Building, the Land and/or the Premises in order to provide the Services to Tenant, Tenant then must also notify Landlord in writing, identifying the name and contact information of such ASP, CLEC or ILEC, and obtain Landlord’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Landlord and the named ASP, CLEC or ILEC shall then negotiate a TSA allowing such ASP, CLEC or ILEC to access the Land and/or the Building, as the case may be. Tenant acknowledges that if Landlord consents to Tenant’s proposed arrangement for the Services, the TSA, which shall bind both Tenant and Tenant’s ASP, CLEC or ILEC (or in the case of (2) above, the TSA shall bind both Tenant and Landlord), is a nonexclusive license agreement only.

	
 
	
(c)
	
At Tenant’s expense, in compliance with all applicable law, provided such installations are compliant with Building systems, and provided Landlord’s keycards continue to provide access, Tenant may install key card reader limited access to the Premises and security systems in the elevators serving the Premises. All such installations shall be subject to the prior written approval of Landlord, not to be unreasonably withheld. At Landlord’s request, Tenant shall be required to remove such improvements installed by Tenant and restore any damage caused thereby upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.

	
13.
	
Right of Entry. Landlord and its managing agent and agents of either shall have the right, at all reasonable times during the Term, to enter and inspect the Premises and to make repairs and/or alterations Landlord deems necessary, with reasonable notice, except in cases of emergency, in which case no notice shall be required. Landlord has the right to show the Premises to prospective tenants during the last nine (9) months of the Term (unless Tenant has exercised an available renewal option), or at any time that Tenant has either permanently vacated the Premises or Tenant is in Default beyond the applicable cure period. Landlord shall have the right at all times to alter, renovate and repair portions of the Building which do not include the Premises, notwithstanding any temporary inconvenience or disturbance to Tenant. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize inconvenience or disturbance to Tenant, provided Landlord shall not be required to pay overtime.

	
14.
	
Destruction of Premises.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Casualty. If a fire or other casualty (collectively, “Casualty”) which damages the Premises or the Building occurs and materially affects the use of the Premises, Landlord shall make an initial estimate of the time needed to complete necessary repairs to the Building and the Premises and notify Tenant of same within sixty (60) days of the Casualty (“Landlord’s Notice”).

	
 
	
(b)
	
Substantial Repairs Required. If the Premises are rendered unusable by the Casualty and Landlord’s initial estimate of the time needed for repairs exceeds two hundred seventy (270) days, Landlord or Tenant may, by written notice to the other given within fifteen (15) business days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Notice, terminate this Lease effective as of the date of the Casualty. If the Premises are rendered unusable by the Casualty, but Landlord’s initial estimate of the time needed for repair is two hundred seventy (270) days or less, subject to the terms of any mortgage encumbering the Building, Landlord will proceed with the restoration of the Premises and/or the Building as set forth below.

11

 

 

	
 
	
(c)
	
Substantial Repairs Not Required. If the Premises are still usable after the Casualty, then neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease. 

	
 
	
(d)
	
Casualties During Last Six Months. Either party may terminate this Lease if the Casualty occurs within the last six (6) months of the Term and the Premises are rendered unusable.

	
 
	
(e)
	
Repairs. Unless the Lease is terminated, subject to the terms of any mortgage encumbering the Building, Landlord will repair the Premises and/or the Building (other than leasehold improvements installed by Tenant and personal property), as the case may be, to substantially the same condition as existed immediately prior to the Casualty. At the request of Landlord, Tenant shall relocate, at Tenant’s expense, all personal property from the Premises prior to and during the period of the repairs.

	
 
	
(f)
	
Rent Abatement. If the Premises are damaged by Casualty and the Lease is not terminated, the Rent and Additional Rent shall abate for that part of the Premises which is rendered unusable and not occupied by Tenant on a per-diem basis from the date of the Casualty until the date on which Landlord has substantially completed the required work. If Landlord makes other space available to Tenant and Tenant accepts such space, rent for such substitute premises shall be the fair rental value of such premises.

	
15.
	
Condemnation.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Substantial Taking. If all or part of the Building is taken or condemned by any authority for any public use or purpose (including a deed given in lieu of condemnation), which renders the Premises unusable as reasonably determined by Landlord, this Lease shall terminate as of the date title vests in such authority and the Rent shall be apportioned as of such date.

	
 
	
(b)
	
Insubstantial Taking. If any part of the Building is taken or condemned (including a deed given in lieu of condemnation), but the Premises are still completely usable, this Lease shall not terminate. Landlord, upon receipt and to the extent of a proportionate amount of the award in condemnation or proceeds of sale, shall make necessary repairs and restorations to restore the Premises to as near their former condition as circumstances will permit, and to the Building to the extent necessary to make the Premises complete. If Landlord is unable to make the Premises complete due to Condemnation, then for the purposes of this Lease, it will be considered a Substantial Taking.

	
 
	
(c)
	
Appointment of Award. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the price or award from any sale, taking or condemnation without any payment to Tenant. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant shall have the right separately to pursue against the condemning authority an award in respect of the loss, if any, to leasehold improvements paid by Tenant, Tenant’s personal property, and Tenant’s cost of relocation without any credit or allowance for Landlord and for any loss for injury, damage or destruction to or of Tenant’s business resulting from such taking. Under no circumstances shall Tenant seek or be entitled to any compensation for the value of its leasehold estate, which Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord.

	
16.
	
Assignment and Sublease.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Consent. Without the prior written consent of Landlord (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Tenant shall not sublease the Premises, or assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer or permit the transfer of this Lease or the interest of Tenant in this Lease, in whole or in part, by operation of law, court decree or otherwise. If Tenant desires to assign this Lease or to enter into any sublease of the Premises, Tenant shall deliver written notice of such intent to Landlord, together with a copy of the proposed assignment or sublease at least twenty-one (21) days prior to the effective date of the proposed assignment or sublease (provided, that Tenant agrees that Landlord’s receipt of such copy shall not be deemed to constitute Landlord’s acceptance and/or approval of the terms thereof). Any approved sublease shall be expressly subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease. In the event of any approved sublease or assignment, Tenant shall not be released or discharged from any liability, whether past, present or future, under this Lease, including any renewal term of this Lease. For purposes of this Paragraph 16, an assignment shall be considered to include a change in the majority ownership or control of Tenant if Tenant is a corporation or limited liability company whose shares of stock or membership interests are not traded publicly (only for so long as Tenant is not traded publicly) or, if Tenant is a partnership, a change in the general partner of the partnership or a change in the persons holding more than 50% of the interests in the partnership, or a change in majority ownership or control of any general partner of the partnership. Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all rent and other consideration received by Tenant in excess of the Rent to be paid by Tenant hereunder for the portion of the Premises so transferred after deduction of all Tenant expense to sublease the Premises including all concessions, professional fees, commissions and any other reasonable expense. Such rent shall be paid as and when received by Tenant.

(b)
	
Processing Fee. In the event Landlord shall consent to any assignment or sublease, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, the actual, third party reasonable attorney’s fees and related out of pocket costs associated with processing such assignment or sublease. The aforesaid reimbursement shall be due and payable upon Landlord’s invoice of same to Tenant. Said reimbursement shall be due upon each sublease and/or assignment. 

	
 
	
(c)
	
Reasonable Standards. The parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any applicable law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed assignment, sublease or other transfer where one or more of the following applies (without limitation as to other reasonable grounds for withholding consent): (i) the transferee is of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building, (ii) the transferee intends to use the Premises for purposes that are not permitted under this Lease, (iii) the subleased space and/or the remainder of the Premises are not regular in shape with appropriate means of ingress and egress suitable for normal renting purposes, (iv) the transferee is either a government (or agency or instrumentality thereof) or an occupant of the Building, (v) Tenant has committed and failed to cure a Default at the time Tenant requests consent to the proposed transfer, or (vi) in the judgment of Landlord, such a transfer would violate any term, condition, covenant, or agreement of the Landlord involving the Building or any other tenant's lease within it. If Landlord wrongfully withholds its consent to any proposed assignment, sublease or other transfer, Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy therefor shall be to seek specific performance of Landlord's obligation to consent to such transfer.

	
 
	
(d)
	
Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding Section 16(a), Tenant may assign all or part of its interest in this Lease or sublease all or part of the Premises (a “Permitted Transfer”) to the following types of entities (a “Permitted Transferee”) without the written consent of Landlord: any corporation, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, limited liability company or other business entity in which or with which Tenant, or its corporate successors or assigns, is merged or consolidated, in accordance with applicable statutory provisions governing merger and consolidation of business entities, so long as (i) Tenant’s obligations hereunder are assumed by the entity surviving such merger or created by such consolidation; and (ii) the Tangible Net Worth of the surviving or created entity is not less than the Tangible Net Worth of Tenant as of the date of the Permitted Transfer. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any such Permitted Transfer. Tenant shall remain liable for the performance of all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder, or if Tenant no longer exists because of a merger, consolidation, or acquisition, the surviving or acquiring entity shall expressly assume in writing the obligations of Tenant hereunder. Additionally, the Permitted Transferee shall expressly assume in writing the obligations of Tenant hereunder; and it shall comply with all of the terms and conditions of this Lease and the use of the Premises by the Permitted Transferee may not violate any other agreements affecting the Premises, the Building, Landlord or other tenants of the Building. No later than ten (10) business days after the effective date of any Permitted Transfer, Tenant agrees to furnish Landlord with (x) copies of the instrument effecting the Permitted Transfer, (y) documentation establishing Tenant’s satisfaction of the requirements set forth above applicable to any such Permitted Transfer, and (z) evidence of insurance as required under this Lease with respect to the Permitted Transferee. The occurrence of a Permitted Transfer shall not waive Landlord’s rights as to any subsequent Transfers. “Tangible Net Worth” means the excess of total assets over total liabilities, in each case as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, excluding, however, from the determination of total assets all assets which would be classified as intangible assets under GAAP including goodwill, licenses, patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, and franchises. In the event that Tenant desires to effect a Permitted Transfer, however the Tangible Net Worth requirement is not met, Landlord agrees to be reasonable and discuss in good faith with Tenant the possibility of achieving Tenant net worth equivalent and creditworthiness acceptable to Landlord via alternative means of credit enhancement, such as an additional letter of credit. Any subsequent assignment or sublease by a Permitted Transferee shall be subject to the terms of this Article 16.

	
17.
	
Subordination, Attornment, and Estoppel.

	
 
	
(a)
	
Subordination. This Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder are expressly subject and subordinate to the lien and provisions of any mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt, ground lease, assignment of leases or other security instrument or operating agreement (collectively, a “Security Instrument”) now or hereafter encumbering the Premises, the Building and/or the Land, or any part thereof, and all amendments, renewals, modifications and/or extensions of and to any such Security Instrument and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon any such Security Instrument. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice from Landlord, execute and deliver such further instrument or instruments, in such form as may be required by Landlord or any holder of a proposed or existing Security Instrument, subordinating this Lease to the lien of any such Security Instrument as may be requested in writing by Landlord or such holder from time to time.

(b)
	
Attornment. In the event of foreclosure of any such Security Instrument by voluntary agreement or otherwise, or the commencement of any judicial action seeking such foreclosure, Tenant, at the request of Landlord, shall attorn to such mortgagee or purchaser in foreclosure. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver at any time upon request of any such mortgagee, purchaser or their successors any instrument to further evidence such attornment. 

	
 
	
(c)
	
Estoppel Certificate.

(d)
	
SNDA. It shall be a condition to the effectiveness of this Lease that Landlord, Tenant and Landlord’s current mortgage lender execute the Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement (“SNDA”) attached hereto as Exhibit “F”. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a SNDA from Landlord’s future mortgage lenders on the lender’s standard form. Tenant shall pay Landlord’s mortgage lender’s SNDA processing, legal and other fees. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for same within thirty (30) days of receipt of an invoice therefore. Tenant may be required to execute a SNDA first before Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee will execute; with respect to the SNDA attached hereto as Exhibit “F”, Tenant’s execution thereof shall be simultaneous to the execution of this Lease. A party’s signature on a SNDA shall evidence such party’s acceptance of such SNDA.

Landlord may upon request, at any time and from time to time, inspect or copy any insurance policies that this Lease requires Tenant to maintain. Tenant agrees that, if Tenant does not obtain and maintain such insurance, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) after five (5) days’ notice to Tenant during which time Tenant does not supply Landlord evidence of the required insurance, procure said insurance on Tenant’s behalf and charge Tenant the premiums therefor, payable upon demand. Tenant shall have the right to provide the insurance required hereunder pursuant to blanket policies obtained by Tenant, provided such blanket policies afford coverage as required by this Lease.

Mutual Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant each agree that neither Landlord nor Tenant (nor their respective successors or assigns) will have any claim against the other for any loss, damage or injury to property which is covered by insurance carried by either party (or which would have been covered if the respective party had carried the insurance required by this Lease), notwithstanding the negligence of either party in causing the loss. Each party agrees to obtain an agreement from its insurer permitting the foregoing waiver if the policy does not expressly permit a waiver of subrogation.

	
 
	
(f)
	
Independent Obligations. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Tenant’s insurance obligations under this Lease are independent of Tenant’s indemnity obligations, liabilities and duties under this Lease.

15

 

 

	
 
	
(2)
	
To the full extent permissible under the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended, or any successor thereto, (a) if Tenant or any Guarantor, shall file a petition in bankruptcy or for reorganization or for an arrangement pursuant to any present or future federal or state bankruptcy law or under any similar federal or state law, or shall be adjudicated, bankrupt or insolvent or shall make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or if a petition or answer proposing the adjudication of Tenant or any Guarantor as a bankrupt or its reorganization under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy law or any similar federal or state law shall be filed in any court and such petition or answer shall not be discharged or denied within thirty (30) days after the filing thereof; (b) if a receiver, trustee or liquidator of Tenant or any Guarantor of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or any Guarantor of the Premises or any portion thereof shall be appointed in any proceeding brought by or against Tenant or any Guarantor and shall not be discharged within thirty (30) days after such appointment, or if Tenant or any Guarantor shall consent to or acquiesce in such appointment; or (c) if the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended, specifically Sections 363 and 365 thereof, are not satisfied to the fullest extent possible. 

	
 
	
(b)
	
Remedies. Upon the occurrence of a Default by Tenant under this Lease at the option of Landlord and in addition to all other rights and remedies provided in this Lease, at law or in equity, Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies:

	
 
	
(1)
	
to terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant, in which event the Term and all right, title and interest of Tenant hereunder shall end on the date stated in such notice;

	
 
	
(2)
	
to terminate the right of Tenant to possession of the Premises without terminating this Lease, by giving notice to Tenant that Tenant’s right of possession shall end on the date stated in such notice, whereupon the right of Tenant to possession of the Premises or any part thereof shall cease on the date stated in such notice. In the event of the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to re-enter the Premises without demand of Rent or demand of possession and forthwith to proceed to recover possession of the Premises by process of law; any notice to quit, or of intention to re-enter the same being hereby expressly waived by Tenant;

	
 
	
(3)
	
Landlord may enforce the provisions of this Lease and may enforce and protect the rights of Landlord hereunder by a suit or suits in equity or at law for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained herein, and for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy, including without limitation (aa) injunctive relief, (bb) recovery of all moneys due or to become due from Tenant under any of the provisions of this Lease, and (cc) any other damages incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s Default;

	
 
	
(4)
	
Intentionally deleted; and

	
 
	
(5)
	
to recover from Tenant all reasonable damages and expenses incurred by Landlord as a result of any breach by Tenant. Any damages or loss of Rent sustained by Landlord may be recovered by Landlord, at Landlord’s option, at the time of reletting, or in separate actions, from time to time, as said damages shall have been made easily ascertainable by successive reletting, or, at Landlord’s option, may be deferred until the expiration of the Term in which event Tenant hereby agrees that the cause of action shall not be deemed to have accrued until the Termination Date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, Landlord shall not be required to serve Tenant with any notices or demands as a prerequisite to its exercise of any of its rights or remedies under this Lease, other than those notices and demands specifically required under this Lease.

In the event of the termination of this Lease by Landlord as provided for by subparagraph (1) above, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages and other sums which Landlord is entitled to recover under any provision of this Lease or at law or equity, including, but not limited to, all the fixed dollar amounts of Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent accrued and unpaid for the period up to and including such termination date, as well as all other additional sums payable by Tenant, or for which Tenant is liable or in respect of which Tenant has agreed to indemnify Landlord under any of the provisions of this Lease, which may be then owing and unpaid, and all costs and expenses, including without limitation court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by Landlord in the enforcement of its rights and remedies hereunder and, in addition, any damages provable by Landlord as a matter of law including, without limitation, an amount equal to the present value of the excess of the Monthly Base Rent provided to be paid for the remainder of the Term (such present value to be computed on the basis of a per annum discount rate equal to 6%) over the fair market rental value of the Premises (determined at the date of termination of this Lease) after deduction of all anticipated expenses of reletting. In the alternative, Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to recover from Tenant, and Tenant shall remain liable for, all Monthly Base Rent, Additional Rent and other amounts due and owing under this Lease not theretofore accelerated and paid pursuant to the provisions of this Lease plus (x) damages equal to all other sums which would have accrued under the Lease after the date of termination had it not been terminated, such damages to be due and payable as such sums would have become due, less (y) such amounts as Landlord may receive 

16

 

 

from reletting after first paying all costs of such reletting, including, without limitation, brokerage commissions and the costs of repairs, alterations, additions and redecorations, and the expenses of re-entry, and the net amounts of rent collected remaining after such expenses shall operate only as an off-setting credit against the amount due hereunder with any excess or residue belonging to Landlord solely. Should the fair market rental value of the Premises after deduction of all anticipated expenses of reletting exceed the Monthly Base Rent provided to be paid by Tenant for the remainder of the Term, Landlord shall not be obligated to pay to Tenant any part of such excess or to credit any part of such excess against any other sums or damages for which Tenant may be liable to Landlord.

If Landlord terminates the right of Tenant to possession of the Premises without terminating this Lease as provided in subparagraph (2) above, such termination of possession shall not release Tenant, in whole or in part, from Tenant’s obligation to pay the Monthly Base Rent hereunder for the full Term, and the present value of the aggregate amount of the Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent (at the then current rates therefor) for the period from the date stated in the notice terminating possession to the Termination Date (such present value to be computed on the basis of a per annum discount rate equal to 6%) shall, at the option of Landlord, be immediately due and payable by Tenant to Landlord, together with any other moneys due hereunder, and Landlord shall have the right to immediate recovery of all such amounts. In the alternative, Landlord shall have the right from time to time, to recover from Tenant, and Tenant shall remain liable for, all Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent not theretofore accelerated and paid pursuant to the foregoing sentence and any other sums thereafter accruing as they become due under this Lease during the period from the date of such notice of termination of possession to the Termination Date. In any such case, Landlord may (but shall be under no obligation to, except as may be required by Law) releting the Premises or any part thereof for the account of Tenant for such rent, for such time (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term of this Lease) and upon such terms as Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion shall determine, and Landlord shall not be required to accept any tenant offered by Tenant or to observe any instructions given by Tenant relative to such reletting. Also, in any such case, Landlord may after prior written notice to Tenant change the locks or other entry devices of the Premises and make repairs, alterations and additions in or to the Premises and redecorate the same to the extent deemed by Landlord necessary or desirable, and Tenant shall upon written demand pay the cost thereof together with Landlord’s expenses of reletting, including, without limitation, brokerage commissions payable to Landlord or Landlord’s agent or to others. To the extent permitted by law, Landlord shall also have the right to take possession of any property of Tenant on the Premises, to store such property at the expense and risk of Tenant or to sell or otherwise dispose of such property in such manner as Landlord may see fit without notice to Tenant. Landlord may collect the rents from any such reletting and apply the same first to the payment of the expenses of reentry, redecoration, repair and alterations and the expenses of reletting and second to the payment of Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant hereunder, and any excess or residue shall operate only as an offsetting credit against the amount of Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent due and owing or paid as a result of acceleration or as the same thereafter becomes due and payable hereunder, but the use of such offsetting credit to reduce the amount of Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent due Landlord, if any, shall not be deemed to give Tenant any right, title or interest in or to such excess or residue and any such excess or residue shall belong to Landlord solely; and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to a credit on its indebtedness to Landlord in excess of either the aggregate sum (including Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent) due and owing or paid as a result of acceleration or which would have been paid by Tenant for the period for which the credit to Tenant is being determined, had no default occurred, as applicable. No such reentry, repossession, repairs, alterations, additions or reletting shall be construed as an eviction or ouster of Tenant or as an election on Landlord’s part to terminate this Lease, unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant, nor shall the foregoing operate to release Tenant in whole or in part from any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, and Landlord may, at any time and from time to time, sue and recover judgment for any deficiencies from time to time remaining after the application from time to time of the proceeds of any such reletting.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages to the extent required by Illinois law; provided, that the sole remedy of Tenant in connection with the failure of Landlord to so mitigate damages if required by law shall be a reduction in Landlord’s recovery by the amount that Tenant proves could reasonably have been mitigated.

	
22.
	
Bike Room. The Building’s basement contains a bicycle storage room that can accommodate up to twenty (20) bicycles. Provided this Lease is in effect and Tenant is not in Default, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right in common with Landlord and other Building tenants to utilize the bicycle storage room for daily bike parking, free of charge. Additional bicycle storage may be made available by Landlord in the future, provided Landlord reserves the right to charge Building standard rates for additional bicycle storage.

17

 

 

	
23.
	
Surrender of Premises. Upon expiration or termination of this Lease or termination of Tenant’s right of possession of the Premises, Tenant shall surrender and vacate the Premises immediately and deliver possession thereof to Landlord in a clean, good and leaseable condition, except for (i) damage not caused by the acts of Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees and (ii) ordinary wear and tear. Charges incurred by Landlord for removal of boxes and debris left in the Premises which exceed normal janitorial costs shall be charged to Tenant. Movable trade fixtures, personal property and all telephone, communication and data lines and cables (collectively, “Telecommunication Equipment”) owned, installed or caused to be installed by Tenant in the Premises or elsewhere, shall be removed by Tenant in a good and workmanlike manner provided, however, that Tenant shall repair any damage to the Premises or Building caused by such removal; except in the event the Premises was delivered to Tenant with existing Telecommunication Equipment, Tenant shall not be required to remove any Telecommunication Equipment upon expiration or termination of the Lease. All items authorized to be removed but subsequently not removed shall, at Landlord’s option, be conclusively presumed to have been abandoned by Tenant, and title thereto shall pass to Landlord without any payment or credit, and Landlord may, at its option, either store or dispose of these items at Tenant’s expense. Except as otherwise noted herein, if any alterations or improvements are made by Tenant, with or without Landlord’s approval, Tenant will, at its expense and upon request by Landlord, restore the Premises to its original condition. Landlord will inform Tenant at time of plan approval whether Landlord will require removal upon Lease expiration or earlier termination of any alterations or improvements that Tenant desires to install. 

	
24.
	
Holding Over. If Tenant, or any assignee or sublessee of Tenant, shall continue to occupy the Premises after the termination or expiration of this Lease for any reason without the prior written consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be a tenancy at sufferance. For the first forty-five (45) days of any holdover tenancy by Tenant, or any assignee or sublessee of Tenant, Landlord, by notice to Tenant, may adjust the Rent to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Rent for the last month of the Term; thereafter the Rent shall be two hundred percent (200%) of the Rent for the last month of the Term. Acceptance by Landlord of any Rent after termination shall not constitute a renewal of this Lease or a consent to such holdover occupancy, nor shall it waive Landlord’s right of re-entry or any other right contained in this Lease or provided by law. Additionally, if Tenant or any assignee or sublessee of Tenant shall continue to occupy the Premises after the termination or expiration of this Lease for any reason without the prior written consent of Landlord for more than thirty (30) days, then Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against all liabilities and damages sustained by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s retention of the Premises, including, without limitation, damages arising because of Landlord’s inability to deliver the Premises to a succeeding tenant.

	
25.
	
Security Deposit. Upon Tenant's execution and submission of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an unconditional, irrevocable letter of credit in the amount of $500,000.00 that conforms to the requirements of this Article  (“Letter of Credit”). The Letter of Credit shall serve as security for the prompt, full and faithful performance by Tenant of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease. In the event that Tenant is in Default hereunder and fails to cure within any applicable time permitted under this Lease, or in the event that Tenant owes any amounts to Landlord upon the expiration of this Lease, Landlord may use or apply only that part of the Letter of Credit necessary to cure such Default(s) or pay such unpaid amounts hereunder. The use or application of the Letter of Credit proceeds or any portion thereof shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy provided hereunder or under any law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages. In no event shall the Letter of Credit be considered an advance payment of Rent, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to use the Letter of Credit for the payment of Rent. Landlord shall have the right to transfer the Letter of Credit to any purchaser of the Building, Landlord’s affiliates, and/or the Building’s lender. Upon such transfer, Tenant shall look solely to such purchaser for return of the Letter of Credit and Landlord shall be relieved of any liability with respect to the Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit shall be: (a) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord (with the following criteria at a minimum); (b) at all times in the stated face amount of not less than $500,000.00 (except as otherwise provided below in this Section) and shall on its face state that multiple and partial draws are permitted and either (i) that partial draws will not cause a corresponding reduction in the stated face amount of the Letter of Credit or (ii) that, within five (5) business days after any such partial draw, the issuer will notify Landlord in writing that the Letter of Credit will not be reinstated to its full amount in which event Landlord shall have the right to immediately draw on the remainder of the Letter of Credit (it being understood that the Letter of Credit shall at all times be not less than the total Letter of Credit amount as so required); (c) issued by a commercial bank reasonably acceptable to Landlord with a banking office in Chicago, Illinois for the account of Tenant and its permitted successors and assigns under this Lease; (d) made payable to, and expressly transferable and assignable one or more times at no charge by, the owner from time to time of the Building or its lender (which transfer/assignment shall be conditioned only upon the execution of a reasonable and customary written document in connection therewith), whether or not the original account party of the Letter of Credit continues to be the Tenant under this Lease by virtue of a change in name or structure, merger, assignment, transfer or otherwise; (e) payable at sight upon presentation to a Chicago, Illinois branch of the issuer of a simple sight draft stating only that Landlord is permitted to draw on the Letter of Credit under the terms of the Lease and setting forth the amount that Landlord is drawing; (f) of a term not less than one year, and shall on its face state that the same shall be renewed automatically, without the need for any further written notice or amendment, for successive minimum one year periods, unless the issuer notifies Landlord in writing, at least forty-five (45) days prior to the expiration date thereof, that such issuer has elected not to renew the Letter of Credit (which 

18

 

 

		
will thereafter entitle Landlord to draw on the Letter of Credit); and (g) at least thirty (30) days prior to the then current expiration date of such Letter of Credit, either (1) renewed (or automatically and unconditionally extended) from time to time through the forty-fifth (45th) day after the expiration of the Lease Term, or (2) replaced by Tenant with another Letter of Credit meeting the requirements of this Section. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord to effect any modifications, transfers or replacements of the Letter of Credit requested by Landlord in order to assure that Landlord is at all times fully secured by a valid Letter of Credit that may be drawn upon by Landlord, its successors and assigns. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, any cure or grace period provided in connection with a Default shall not apply to any of the foregoing requirements of the Letter of Credit and, specifically, if any of the aforesaid requirements are not complied with timely, then an immediate Default shall occur and Landlord shall have the right to immediately draw upon the Letter of Credit without notice to Tenant. In the event that Landlord draws on the Letter of Credit and holds the proceeds of same as a cash security deposit, then upon presentation to Landlord of a new Letter of Credit that meets the requirements of this Section, Landlord shall refund to Tenant the unapplied cash in exchange for the replacement Letter of Credit. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued by a commercial bank that has a credit rating with respect to certificates of deposit, short term deposits or commercial paper of at least A-2 (or equivalent) by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc., or at least P-2 (or equivalent) by Standard & Poor’s Corporation, and shall be otherwise acceptable to Landlord in its reasonable discretion. If the issuer’s credit rating is reduced below A-2 (or equivalent) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or below P-2 (or equivalent) by Standard & Poor’s Corporation, or if the financial condition of such issuer changes in any other materially adverse way, then Landlord shall have the right to require that Tenant obtain from a different issuer a substitute Letter of Credit that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Section and Tenant’s failure to obtain such substitute Letter of Credit within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s written demand therefor (with no other notice or cure or grace period being applicable thereto, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary) shall entitle Landlord to immediately draw upon the then existing Letter of Credit in whole or in part, without notice to Tenant. In the event the issuer of any Letter of Credit held by Landlord is insolvent or is placed into receivership or conservatorship by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or any successor or similar entity, or if a trustee, receiver or liquidator is appointed for the issuer, then, effective as of the date of such occurrence, said Letter of Credit shall be deemed to not meet the requirements of this Section and, within thirty (30) days thereof, Tenant shall replace such Letter of Credit with other collateral acceptable to Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion (and Tenant’s failure to do so shall, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, constitute a Default for which there shall be no notice or grace or cure periods being applicable thereto other than the aforesaid thirty (30) day period). Any failure or refusal of the issuer to honor the Letter of Credit shall be at Tenant’s sole risk and shall not relieve Tenant of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided no Default has occurred hereunder within the 12 month period preceding a reduction date set forth below, Tenant may reduce the amount of the Letter of Credit to $350,000.00 after the first anniversary of the Commencement Date, $200,000.00 after the second anniversary of the Commencement Date, and $100,000.00 after the fourth anniversary of the Commencement Date with no further reduction thereafter. However, Landlord reserves the right to increase the required amount of the Letter of Credit in the event that Tenant leases additional space in the Building. In the event of such expansion during the first year of the Term such increase shall not exceed an amount equal to $8.40 per rentable square foot of the expansion space and shall burn off proportionately with the original Letter of Credit; after the first year Landlord shall have the right to determine in Landlord’s discretion the amount of the increased Letter of Credit based on Landlord’s review of Tenant’s financial statements at the time.

Limitation of Landlord’s Liability. As used in this Lease, “Landlord” shall mean the entity herein named as such, and its successors and assigns. No person holding Landlord’s interest under this Lease (whether or not such person is named as “Landlord”) shall have any liability after such person ceases to hold such interest, except for any liability accruing while such person held such interest. No principal, officer, employee, manager, member or partner (general or limited) of Landlord shall have any personal liability under any provision of this Lease. If Landlord defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease or otherwise becomes liable to Tenant for any reason, Tenant shall look solely to Landlord’s interest in the Building and the undistributed rents, issues, profits and proceeds thereof and not to the other assets of Landlord, if any, or the assets, interest or rights of any principal, officer, employee, manager, member or partner (general or limited) for satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies. In no event shall Landlord ever be liable for consequential damages, including, without limitation, lost profits.

	
27.
	
Encumbrances on Landlord’s Title. Upon request of Landlord, Tenant will promptly release or modify, or cause to be released or modified, at Tenant’s expense, any financing statement given by Tenant to a third party, any memorandum of mechanic’s lien filed against Tenant with respect to work on the Premises, or any other recorded document filed by or on account of Tenant (“Document”), which, in Landlord’s sole opinion, adversely affects, clouds or otherwise encumbers Landlord’s title to any part of the Building or the Land, so that the Document shall not encumber any portion of the Building or the Land other than Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises. Tenant’s obligations in this Paragraph 27 shall survive expiration or termination of this Lease.

29.
	
Successor And Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 16 above, this Lease shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their successors, permitted assigns and legal representatives. In the event of the sale, assignment, or transfer by Landlord of its interest in the Building or in this Lease (other than a collateral assignment to secure a debt of Landlord prior to enforcement), Landlord shall be released and discharged from all of its covenants and obligations hereunder, except such obligations as Landlord shall have accrued prior to any such sale, assignment or transfer, and Tenant agrees to look solely to such successor of Landlord for performance of such obligations. Any securities or funds given by Tenant to Landlord to secure performance by Tenant of its obligations may be assigned by Landlord to such successor of Landlord and Landlord thereafter shall be discharged from any further obligation relating thereto. Landlord’s assignment of the Lease or of any or all of its rights shall in no manner affect Tenant’s obligations hereunder. Landlord shall have the right to freely sell, assign or otherwise transfer its interest in the Building, the Land and/or this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Lease shall bind and inure to the benefit of Landlord’s successors, assigns and legal representatives and therefore shall not terminate (through no fault of Tenant) in the event of any assignment of Landlord, including but not limited to, in the event of merger, consolidation, sale or acquisition of Landlord.

If any Hazardous Material is permitted by Landlord, Tenant shall remove all such Hazardous Material upon the expiration or termination of this Lease and restore the Premises to a condition satisfactory to Landlord.

Landlord may elect to join and participate in any settlements or other proceedings initiated in connection with any claims under any Environmental Law and to have its reasonable attorney’s fees paid by Tenant. Tenant agrees to promptly and completely cure and remedy, at Tenant’s, sole cost and expense, every violation of an Environmental Law caused by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees.

Renewal Option. Tenant is hereby granted the option (“Extension Option”) to extend the term of the Lease for one (1) period of five (5) years (“Extension Term”). The Extension Option may be exercised only by giving Landlord irrevocable and unconditional written notice thereof no earlier than eighteen (18) months and no later than nine (9) months prior to the commencement of the Extension Term. Tenant may not exercise the Extension Option if Tenant is in Default under the Lease beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period either at the date of said notice or at any time thereafter prior to commencement of the Extension Term. Upon exercise of the Extension Option, all references in the Lease to the Term shall be deemed to be references to the Term as extended pursuant to the Extension Option. The Extension Term shall be on the same terms, covenants and conditions as are contained in the Lease, except that (i) no additional extension option shall be conferred by the exercise of the Extension Option, (ii) Base Rent applicable to the Premises for the Extension Term shall be determined as provided below, and (iii) any initial rent abatement, concession or allowance which are in the nature of economic concessions or inducements shall not be applicable to any Extension Term. In addition to Base Rent, Tenant shall pay Additional Rent, and other Rent during the Extension Term as provided in this Lease. Base Rent per annum per rentable square foot of the Premises for the Extension Term shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Current Market Rate for lease terms commencing on or about the date of commencement of the Extension Term. The term “Current Market Rate” means the prevailing rental rate per rentable square foot under office leases recently executed for comparable space in the Building and in comparable buildings in 

23

 

 

		
the Central Loop in Chicago, Illinois. The determination of Current Market Rate shall take into consideration net versus gross lease (and differing base years if applicable); any differences in the size of space being leased, the location of space in the building and the length of lease terms; any differences in definitions of rentable square feet or rentable area with respect to which rental rates are computed; the value of rent abatements, allowances (for demolition, space planning, architectural and engineering fees, construction, moving expenses or other purposes), the creditworthiness of Tenant; the length of the time period for construction; the location and quality of the building and the location and quality of the space within the building; the age of the building; common area factors; lease assumptions; moving and space planning allowances; refurbishment allowances; and other pertinent factors. The Current Market Rate may include an escalation of a fixed net rental rate (based on a fixed step or index) then prevailing in the market. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice to extend Landlord shall deliver to Tenant written notice of the Current Market Rate and shall advise Tenant of the required adjustment to Base Rent, if any. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of Landlord’s notice, notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant (a) accepts Landlord’s determination of the Current Market Rate; (b) rejects Landlord’s determination of the Current Market Rate, or (c) requests that the Current Market Rate be determined by an appraiser (“Arbitration Request”). If Tenant rejects Landlord’s determination, Tenant’s exercise of the Extension Option granted herein shall be deemed revoked and of no further force of effect. If Tenant requests that the Current Market Rate be determined by an appraiser, Landlord and Tenant, within ten (10) days after the date of the Arbitration Request, shall each simultaneously submit to the other, in a sealed envelope, its good faith estimate of the Current Market Rate (collectively referred to as the “Estimates”). If the higher of such Estimates is not more than one hundred five percent (105%) of the lower of such Estimates, then Current Market Rate shall be the average of the two Estimates. If the Current Market Rate is not resolved by the exchange of Estimates, Landlord and Tenant, within seven (7) days after the exchange of Estimates, shall each select an appraiser to determine which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the Current Market Rate. Each appraiser so selected shall be certified as an MAI appraiser and shall have had at least five (5) years’ experience within the previous ten (10) years as a real estate appraiser working in the same submarket in which the Building is located, with current working knowledge of current office rental rates and practices. For purposes of this Lease, an “MAI” appraiser means an individual who holds an MAI designation conferred by, and is an independent member of, the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (or its successor organization, or in the event there is no successor organization, the organization and designation most similar). Upon selection, Landlord’s and Tenant’s appraisers shall work together in good faith to agree upon which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the Current Market Rate. The Estimate chosen by such appraisers shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant as the Current Market Rate. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an appraiser within the seven day period referred to above, the appraiser appointed by the other party shall be the sole appraiser for the purposes hereof. If the two appraisers cannot agree upon which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the Current Market Rate within the twenty (20) days after their appointment, then, within ten (10) days after the expiration of such twenty (20) day period, the two (2) appraisers shall select a third appraiser meeting the aforementioned criteria. Once the third appraiser has been selected as provided for above, then, as soon thereafter as practicable but in any case within fourteen (14) days, the appraiser shall make his determination of which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the Current Market Rate and such Estimate shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant as the Current Market Rate. The parties shall share equally in the costs of the third appraiser. Any fees of any appraiser, counsel or experts engaged directly by Landlord or Tenant, however, shall be borne by the party retaining such appraiser, counsel or expert. In the event that the Current Market Rate has not been determined by the commencement date of the Extension Term, Tenant shall pay the most recent Base Rent set forth in the Lease until such time as the Current Market Rate has been determined. Upon such determination, Base Rent shall be retroactively adjusted. If such adjustment results in an underpayment of Base Rent by Tenant, Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of such underpayment within thirty (30) days after the determination thereof. If such adjustment results in an overpayment of Base Rent by Tenant, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against the next installment of Base Rent due under the Lease and, to the extent necessary, any subsequent installments until the entire amount of such overpayment has been credited against Base Rent. Tenant must timely exercise the Extension Option or the Extension Option shall terminate. Tenant's exercise of the Extension Option shall not operate to cure any default by Tenant of any of the terms or provisions in the Lease, nor to extinguish or impair any rights or remedies of Landlord arising by virtue of such default. If the Lease or Tenant's right to possession of the Premises shall terminate in any manner whatsoever before Tenant shall exercise the Extension Option, or if Tenant shall have subleased or assigned all or any portion of the Premises other than to a Permitted Transferee, then immediately upon such termination, sublease or assignment, the Extension Option shall simultaneously terminate and become null and void. The Extension Option is personal to Tenant and its Permitted Transferees. 

	
35.
	
Fixed Expansion Option. Provided that Tenant is not in Default, Tenant shall have a one-time right and option (“Fixed Expansion Option”) to lease approximately 12,249 rentable square feet on the 19th floor of the Building (“Fixed Expansion Space”). Tenant may exercise its Fixed Expansion Option, if at all, by delivering to Landlord during the first twelve (12) months of the Term a written notice (“Fixed Expansion Option Notice”) of Tenant’s election to exercise its Fixed Expansion Option.

During the Term, Tenant may send Landlord a written request for a list of all unencumbered, available, vacant demised spaces greater than 5,000 rentable square feet located in the same elevator bank as the Premises (“Expansion Option Request”). Within twenty-one (21) days of receipt of the Expansion Option Request, Landlord shall provide Tenant a list of all unencumbered, available, vacant demised spaces greater than 5,000 rentable square feet located in the same elevator bank as the Premises together with Landlord’s determination of the Current Market Rate for such space (“Landlord’s Availability Notice”). Tenant may elect to exercise its Variable Expansion Option by written notice to Landlord, which must be exercised within ten (10) days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Availability Notice, Tenant’s notice to identify the location(s) that Tenant desires to lease from such list of no fewer than 5,000 rentable square feet and no more than 15,000 rentable square feet in the aggregate. Landlord shall not be required to demise or separately meter any space in connection with Tenant’s exercise of the Variable Expansion Option.

Right of First Offer. Provided Tenant does not exercise its Fixed Expansion Option, subject to existing renewal or expansion options of other tenants, and subject to Landlord’s reserved right to lease directly to the then-current tenant and subtenants of the Offer Space, provided Tenant is not in Default under the Lease, Landlord shall, prior to offering the same to any other party, first offer to lease to Tenant any space that Landlord desires to make available for lease on the nineteenth (19th) floor of the Building (the “Offer Space”); such offer shall be in writing and specify the lease terms for the Offer Space, including the rent to be paid for the Offer Space, any rent abatement to be offered, the term, any allowance to be provided, and the date on which the Offer Space shall be included in the Premises (the “Offer Notice”). The Offer Notice shall also state the amount of the increase to the Letter of Credit that would be required by Landlord as set forth in Section 25 above. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant elects to lease the entire Offer Space on the terms set forth in the Offer Notice, within ten (10) days after Landlord delivers to Tenant the Offer Notice. If Tenant timely elects to lease the Offer Space, then Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to the Lease on the terms set forth in the Offer Notice and, to the extent not inconsistent with the Offer Notice terms, the terms of the Lease; however, Tenant shall accept the Offer Space in an “AS-IS” condition and Landlord shall not provide to Tenant any allowances (e.g., moving allowance, construction allowance, and the like) or other concessions except as specifically provided in the Offer Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of the Offer Notice, Landlord has received, but not previously made, an offer to lease all or part of the Offer Space from a third party (a “Third Party Offer”) and such Third Party Offer includes space in excess of the Offer Space, Tenant must exercise its rights hereunder, if at all, as to all of the space contained in the Third Party Offer. If Tenant fails or is unable to timely exercise its right hereunder, then such right shall lapse, time being of the essence with respect to the exercise thereof (it being understood that Tenant’s right hereunder is a one-time right only), and Landlord may lease all or a portion of the Offer Space to third parties on such terms as Landlord may elect, although Landlord must re-offer the Offer Space to Tenant in the event that Landlord’s new deal terms are 3% or more lower on a Net Effective Basis than Landlord’s offer to Tenant or in the event Landlord has not executed a lease of the Offer Space at issue with a third party within 1 year of the Offer Notice. For purposes of this Section, “Net Effective Basis” means the annuitized present value of the lease when considering base rent, downtime, term, abated rent, and tenant improvement costs. Tenant may not exercise its right of first offer if Tenant is in Default or if Tenant or a Permitted Transferee is not then leasing and occupying the entire Premises initially leased hereunder. For purposes hereof, if an Offer Notice is delivered for less than all of the Offer Space but such notice provides for an expansion, right of first refusal, or other preferential right to lease some of the remaining portion of the Offer Space, then such remaining portion of the Offer Space shall thereafter be excluded from the provisions of Tenant’s right of first offer in the event of exercise of such preferential right. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to pay a commission with respect to any space leased by Tenant under this Section other than to Tenant’s designated broker who is actively involved in negotiations on Tenant’s behalf at the time and with whom Landlord has executed a commission agreement, and Tenant and Landlord shall each indemnify the other against all costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, and other liability for commissions or other compensation claimed by any other broker or agent claiming the same by, through, or under the indemnifying party. Tenant’s right of first offer shall terminate if (a) the Lease or Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises is terminated, (b) Tenant assigns any of its interest in the Lease other than to a Permitted Transferee, (c) Tenant ever leases fewer than seventy-five percent (75%) of the Premises initially leased to Tenant hereunder, or (d) less than one (1) full calendar year remains in the term of the Lease, unless Tenant exercises an available renewal option.

Satellite Dish. Tenant may lease at no charge up to 25 square feet of space on the roof of the Building so that Tenant may install a satellite transmitting or receiving dish, a microwave antenna and/or repeaters necessary for Tenant’s business (and not for public broadcasting) (individually and collectively, the “Antenna”), provided that (a) the size, location and manner of installation of such Antenna shall be determined by Landlord in its sole discretion, (b) the Antenna shall be located so as to not be visible except from above the Building and Tenant shall install such screens as may be necessary to prevent the visibility of the Antenna, (c) no such Antenna shall be affixed to the roof of the Building by any device which penetrates the roof and Landlord shall have the right to approve in advance Tenant’s mounting of the Antenna, (d) Tenant shall bear all costs and liability incurred with respect to the installation, operation, maintenance, removal and insuring of the Antenna, (e) installation, operation and removal of the Antenna shall be performed in such manner as is necessary in order to preserve Landlord's roof warranty, and (f) the installation, operation and maintenance of the Antenna is permitted under and performed in full compliance with all applicable laws and the rules and regulations of the Building. Landlord agrees that Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use a pathway in the Building for installation, operation, maintenance and removal of equipment connecting the Antenna to the Premises; provided that (i) such use of the pathway may be shared with other tenants and Landlord, (ii) Tenant shall make no installation or alteration outside of the Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent, and (iii) such use otherwise complies with this Section. Tenant shall be responsible for the repair and maintenance of the Antenna and all related equipment and components during the Term of this Lease, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, at Landlord’s option Tenant shall either leave the Antenna and related equipment in place or, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, remove said Antenna and all related equipment and components and repair any damage to the roof and the Building caused as a result of such use or removal. Any required structural reinforcement shall be made at Tenant's sole cost and will be performed by contractors approved by Landlord. Landlord will not be liable to Tenant or to any other person whomsoever for any injury to person or damage to property, arising out of any use of the roof or any other portion of the Building in connection with the Antenna and Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord from any and all liability thereof.

EXHIBIT C

CONSTRUCTION ADDENDUM

1. Acceptance of Premises. Except as set forth in this Exhibit, Tenant accepts the Premises in their “AS-IS” condition on the date that this Lease is entered into. However, if the prior tenant removes its security system or any part thereof and causes damage to the Premises or Building in the process, Landlord, not Tenant, shall be responsible for the repair of such damage to the Building.

2. Working Drawings.

(a) Preparation and Delivery. Tenant shall provide to Landlord for its approval final working drawings (architectural and MEP drawings), prepared by Valerio DeWalt Train Architects or another design consultant reasonably acceptable to Landlord (the “Architect”), of all alterations and improvements that Tenant proposes to install in the Premises; such working drawings shall be delivered in AutoCAD format together with a hard copy thereof and shall include the partition layout, ceiling plan, electrical outlets and switches, telephone outlets, drawings for any modifications to the mechanical and plumbing systems of the Building, and detailed plans and specifications for the construction of the alterations and improvements called for under this Exhibit in accordance with all applicable laws.

(b) Approval Process. Landlord shall notify Tenant whether it approves of the submitted working drawings within ten (10) business days after Tenant’s submission thereof. If Landlord disapproves of such working drawings, then Landlord shall notify Tenant thereof specifying in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval, in which case Tenant shall, within three (3) business days after such notice, revise such working drawings in accordance with Landlord’s objections and submit the revised working drawings to Landlord for its review and approval. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing whether it approves of the resubmitted working drawings within five (5) business days after its receipt thereof. This process shall be repeated until the working drawings have been finally approved by Tenant and Landlord.

(c) Landlord’s Approval; Performance of Work. Landlord’s approval of such working drawings shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that (1) they comply with all laws, (2) the improvements depicted thereon do not adversely affect (in the reasonable discretion of Landlord) the Building structure or the Building’s mechanical systems, the exterior appearance of the Building, or the appearance of the common areas, (3) such working drawings are sufficiently detailed to allow construction of the improvements in a good and workmanlike manner, and (4) the improvements depicted thereon conform to the rules and regulations promulgated from time to time by Landlord for the construction of tenant improvements. As used herein, “Working Drawings” shall mean the final working drawings approved by Landlord, as amended from time to time by any approved changes thereto, and “Work” shall mean all improvements to be constructed in accordance with and as indicated on the Working Drawings. Landlord’s approval of the Working Drawings shall not be a representation or warranty of Landlord that such drawings are adequate for any use or comply with any law, but shall merely be the consent of Landlord thereto. Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, sign the Working Drawings to evidence its review and approval thereof. After the Working Drawings have been approved, Tenant shall cause the Work to be performed in accordance with the Working Drawings.

3. Contractors; Performance of Work. The Work shall be performed only by licensed contractors and subcontractors approved in writing by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. All contractors and subcontractors shall be required to procure and maintain insurance against such risks, in such amounts, and with such companies as Landlord may reasonably require. Certificates of such insurance, with paid receipts therefor, must be received by Landlord before the Work is commenced. The Work shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner free of defects, shall conform strictly with the Working Drawings, and shall be performed in such a manner and at such times as and not to interfere with or delay Landlord’s other contractors, the operation of the Building, and the occupancy thereof by other tenants. All contractors and subcontractors shall contact Landlord and schedule time periods during which they may use Building facilities in connection with the Work (e.g., elevators, excess electricity, etc.). To promote labor harmony, Landlord may require that Tenant use union contractors.

4. Construction Contracts.

(a) Tenant’s General Contractor. Tenant shall enter into a construction contract with a general contractor selected by Tenant and approved by Landlord in a form acceptable to Tenant’s representative for the Work, which shall comply with the provisions of this Section 4 and provide for, among other things, (1) a one-year warranty for all defective Work; (2) a requirement that Tenant’s Contractor maintain general commercial liability insurance of not less than a combined single limit of $3,000,000, naming Landlord, Landlord’s property management company, Landlord’s mortgagee and Tenant as additional insureds; (3) a requirement that the contractor perform the Work in substantial accordance with the Working Drawings and in a good and workmanlike manner; (4) a requirement that the contractor is responsible for daily cleanup work and final clean up (including removal of debris); and (5) those items described in Section 4.(b) (collectively, the “Approval Criteria”). Landlord shall have three (3) business days to notify Tenant whether it approves the proposed construction agreements. If Landlord disapproves of the proposed construction agreements, then it shall specify in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval, in which case Tenant shall revise the proposed construction agreements to correct the objections and resubmit them to Landlord within two business days after Landlord notifies Tenant of its objections thereto, following which Landlord shall have two business days to notify Tenant whether it approves the revised construction agreements.

C-1

 

(b) All Construction Contracts. Tenant may competitively bid the Work. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Landlord and Tenant, each of Tenant’s construction contracts shall: (1) provide a schedule and sequence of construction activities and completion reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (2) be in a contract form that satisfies the Approval Criteria, and (3) be assignable following an uncured default by Tenant under the Lease to Landlord and Landlord’s mortgagee.

5. Change Orders. Tenant may initiate changes in the Work. Each such change must receive the prior written approval of Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; however, if such requested change would adversely affect (in the reasonable discretion of Landlord) (a) the Building structure or the Building’s mechanical systems, (b) the exterior appearance of the Building, or (c) the appearance of the common areas, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole and absolute discretion. Tenant shall, upon completion of the Work, furnish Landlord with an accurate record drawing of the Leasehold Improvements as constructed in Autocad format (together with a hard copy thereof), which record drawing shall be incorporated into this Exhibit by this reference for all purposes. If Tenant requests any changes to the Work described in the Working Drawings, then such increased costs and any additional design costs incurred in connection therewith as the result of any such change shall be added to the Total Construction Costs.

6. Definitions. As used herein “Substantial Completion,” “Substantially Completed,” and any derivations thereof mean the Work in the Premises is substantially completed (as reasonably determined by Landlord) in accordance with the Working Drawings. Substantial Completion shall have occurred even though minor details of construction, decoration, and mechanical adjustments remain to be completed.

7. Walk-Through; Punchlist. When Tenant considers the Work in the Premises to be Substantially Completed, Tenant will notify Landlord and within three (3) business days thereafter, Tenant’s representative shall conduct a walk-through of the Premises and identify any necessary touch-up work, repairs and minor completion items that are necessary for final completion of the Work and deliver same to Landlord. Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to cause the contractor performing the Work to complete all punchlist items within 30 days after delivery thereof.

8. Cost of the Work. The entire cost of performing the Work (including design of the Work and preparation of the Working Drawings, costs of construction labor and materials, electrical usage during construction, additional janitorial services, related taxes and insurance costs, and the construction supervision fee referenced in Section 10 of this Exhibit, all of which costs are herein collectively called the “Total Construction Costs”) in excess of the Construction Allowance (hereinafter defined) shall be paid by Tenant. Upon approval of the Working Drawings, selection of a contractor, and determination of the estimated Total Construction Costs, Tenant shall promptly execute a work order agreement or other documents to ensure that Landlord is provided: the final Working Drawings, a budget that itemizes the Total Construction Costs and sets forth the Construction Allowance, a construction schedule, and a list of all of Tenant’s contractors and suppliers.

9. Construction Allowance. Landlord shall provide to Tenant a construction allowance of $32.00 per rentable square foot in the Premises (the “Construction Allowance”) to be applied toward the Total Construction Costs, as adjusted for any changes to the Work. In the event that the amount of the Total Construction Costs is estimated to exceed the Construction Allowance, then each disbursement of the Construction Allowance shall be made pari passu with Tenant’s payment, from Tenant’s own funds, of the excess of the Total Construction Costs minus the Construction Allowance relative to such disbursement. For example, if the budgeted Total Construction Costs are $100 and the Construction Allowance is $80, each disbursement (draw) shall be paid 80% by Landlord and 20% by Tenant. Landlord shall pay to Tenant the Construction Allowance in multiple disbursements (but not more than once in any calendar month) following the receipt by Landlord of the following items: (a) a request for payment and sworn statements of owner and contractor, (b) final or partial lien waivers, as the case may be, from all persons performing work or supplying or fabricating materials for the Work, fully executed, acknowledged and in recordable form, (c) the Architect’s certification that the Work for which reimbursement has been requested has been finally completed, including (with respect to the last application for payment only) any punch-list items, on the appropriate AIA form or another form approved by Landlord, and, with respect to the disbursement of the last 10% of the Construction Allowance, (i) the permanent certificate of occupancy issued for the Premises, (ii) Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, (iii) as-built drawings in AutoCAD format and hard copy required by Section 5 above, (iv) copies of all contractor and supplier warranties obtained by Tenant, and (v) an estoppel certificate confirming such factual matters as Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably request (collectively, a “Completed Application for Payment”). Landlord shall pay the amount requested in the applicable Completed Application for Payment to Tenant within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s submission of the Completed Application for Payment. If, however, the Completed Application for Payment is incomplete or incorrect, Landlord’s payment of such request shall be deferred until thirty (30) days following Landlord’s receipt of the Completed Application for Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Exhibit, Landlord shall not be obligated to make any disbursement of the Construction Allowance during the pendency of any of the following: (1) Landlord has received written notice of any unpaid claims relating to any portion of the Work or materials in connection therewith, other than claims which will be paid in full from such disbursement, (2) there is an unbonded lien outstanding against the Building or the Premises or Tenant’s interest therein by reason of work done, or claimed to have been done, or materials supplied or specifically fabricated, claimed to have been supplied or 

C-2

 

specifically fabricated, to or for Tenant or the Premises, (3) the conditions to the advance of the Construction Allowance are not satisfied, or (4) Tenant is in default under the Lease. At least fifty percent (50%) of the Construction Allowance must be used to pay for hard construction costs in the Premises. This shall include costs of demolition, construction, paint, carpet, HVAC work, cabling and wiring, any work on the Patio Space (including landscaping), and costs of architectural and engineering consultants related to the Work. The remaining fifty percent (50%) of the allowance may be used to pay for the following in the Premises: hard construction costs; soft construction costs; furniture, fixtures, and equipment; and credit against Base Rent, provided that no more than $5.00 per square foot of the Construction Allowance may be used as rent credit. The Construction Allowance must be used (i.e. work performed and invoices submitted to Landlord) within twelve (12) months following the Commencement Date or shall be deemed forfeited with no further obligation by Landlord with respect thereto (subject to Tenant’s ability to use up to $5.00 per square foot of the Construction Allowance as rent credit).

10. Construction Management. Landlord or its affiliate or agent shall supervise the Work and coordinate the relationship between the Work, the Building and the Building Systems. In consideration for Landlord’s construction supervision services, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a construction supervision fee equal to one and a half percent (1.5%) of Total Construction Costs. In addition, Tenant shall be responsible to pay for (a) reasonable third party expenses incurred with Landlord’s review and supervision of Tenant’s plans, drawings and Work, and (b) Landlord’s actual costs of security guard and other personnel reasonably required by Landlord during Tenant’s use of loading docks, elevator and freight (which may be union charges and which may include minimum charges).

11. Construction Representatives. Landlord’s and Tenant’s representatives for coordination of construction and approval of change orders will be as follows, provided that either party may change its representative upon written notice to the other:

12. Roof Installations. The Working Drawings may call for, and the Work may include, installation of supplemental HVAC equipment to serve the Premises, which may include installation of HVAC equipment on the Building’s roof. In such instance, Landlord agrees that Tenant may use an area of approximately 8 feet by 35 feet (but no more space than is necessary based on Tenant’s plans) exclusive of the steel substructure platform for the unit on the roof of the Building so that Tenant may install HVAC equipment for the Premises (the “Rooftop Unit”), provided that (a) the size, location and manner of installation of such Rooftop Unit shall be determined by Landlord in its sole discretion, (b) the Rooftop Unit shall be located so as to not be visible except from above the Building and Tenant shall install such screens as may be necessary to prevent the visibility of the Rooftop Unit, (c) no such Rooftop Unit shall be affixed to the roof of the Building by any device which penetrates the roof and Landlord shall have the right to approve in advance Tenant’s mounting of the Rooftop Unit, (d) Tenant shall bear all costs and liability incurred with respect to the installation, operation, maintenance, and insuring of the Rooftop Unit, (e) installation and operation of the Rooftop Unit shall be performed in such manner as is necessary in order to preserve Landlord's roof warranty, and (f) the installation, operation and maintenance of the Rooftop Unit is permitted under and performed in full compliance with all applicable laws and the rules and regulations of the Building. Landlord agrees that Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use a pathway in the Building for installation, operation, and maintenance of equipment connecting the Rooftop Unit to Tenant’s HVAC installations in the Premises; provided that (i) such use of the pathway may be shared with other tenants and Landlord, (ii) Tenant shall make no installation or alteration outside of the Premises without Landlord's prior written consent, and (iii) such use otherwise complies with this Section. Tenant shall be responsible for the repair and maintenance of the Rooftop Unit and all related equipment and components during the Term of this Lease, at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, the Rooftop Unit and related equipment shall remain in place and shall be deemed conveyed by Tenant to Landlord without further Bill of Sale and shall thereafter be Landlord’s personal property. The Rooftop Unit and related equipment shall be in good working order upon the date of conveyance to Landlord. Any structural reinforcement required for Tenant’s rooftop installations before the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease shall be made at Tenant's sole cost and will be performed by contractors approved by Landlord. Landlord will not be liable to Tenant or to any other person whomsoever for any injury to person or damage to property, arising out of any use of the roof or any other portion of the Building in connection with the Rooftop Unit and Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord from any and all liability thereof.

C-3

 

13. Miscellaneous. To the extent not inconsistent with this Exhibit, the Lease shall govern the performance of the Work and Landlord’s and Tenant’s respective rights and obligations regarding the improvements installed pursuant thereto. Initial and subsequent construction in the Premises by Tenant shall comply with the Building’s environmental and energy efficiency initiatives in effect at the time of construction. Such initiatives may include, but shall not be limited to, usage of low VOC construction materials (including, without limitation, low VOC paint and carpet); energy efficient lighting (and controls), equipment, and appliances; HVAC efficiencies; water use reduction; CFC reduction; recycling; construction waste management; usage of locally manufactured materials; usage of rapidly renewable materials; and usage of recycled materials.

SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT

Tenant’s Trade Name: GRUBHUB, INC.

NOTICE: THIS SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT RESULTS IN YOUR LEASEHOLD ESTATE IN THE PROPERTY BECOMING SUBJECT TO AND OF LOWER PRIORITY THAN THE LIEN OF THE SECURITY DOCUMENTS (DEFINED BELOW).

THIS SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of March , 2012, by and between GRUBHUB, INC., a Delaware corporation

(“Tenant”), and WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A. (“Lender”).

RECITALS

	
A.
	
111 WEST WASHINGTON, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Owner”), is the owner of the land and improvements commonly known as Burnham Center located at 111 West Washington Street, Chicago, Illinois 60602 and more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Property”).

	
B.
	
Tenant is the tenant under a lease dated March, 2012, executed by Owner (or its predecessor in interest), as landlord, and Tenant, as tenant (as the same may have been amended, the “Lease”), covering certain premises (the “Premises”)

	
C.
	
Lender is the current holder of a mortgage loan (the “Loan”) previously made to Owner, evidenced by a note (the “Note”) and secured by, among other things: (a) a first mortgage, deed of trust or deed to secure debt encumbering the Property (the “Mortgage”): and (b) a first priority assignment of leases and rents on the Property (the “Assignment of Leases and Rents”) contained in the Mortgage or in a separate document. The Mortgage and the Assignment of Leases and Rents are collectively referred to as the “Security Documents.” The Note, the Security Documents and all other documents executed in connection with the Loan are collectively referred to as the “Loan Documents.”

	
D.
	
Tenant has requested Lender’s agreement that if Lender forecloses on the Mortgage or otherwise exercises Lender’s remedies under the Security Documents, Lender will not disturb Tenant’s right to quiet possession of the Premises under the terms of the Lease.

	
E.
	
Lender is willing to so agree on the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement, including, without limitation. Tenant’s agreement to subordinate the Lease and attorn to Lender as provided herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for mutual consideration, including the mutual covenants and agreements set forth below, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

	
1.
	
SUBORDINATION. The Lease is and shall remain unconditionally subject and subordinate to (a) the liens or charges imposed by the Security Documents, (b) all currently outstanding or future advances secured by the Security Documents, and (c) all renewals, amendments, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of the Security Documents. The subordination described herein is intended by the parties to have the same force and effect as if the Security Documents and such renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of the Security Documents had been executed, acknowledged, delivered and recorded prior to the Lease and any amendments or modifications thereof.

	
2.
	
NON-DISTURBANCE. If Lender exercises any of its rights under the Security Documents, including any right of entry on the Property pursuant to the Mortgage or upon a foreclosure of or deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage, Lender shall not disturb Tenant’s right of quiet possession of the Premises under the terms of the Lease, so long as Tenant is not in default under this Agreement or, beyond any applicable grace period, under the Lease.

1

 

	
3.
	
ATTORNMENT. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, should title to the Premises and the landlord’s interest in the Lease be transferred to Lender or any other person or entity by foreclosure of or deed in-lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage, Tenant shall, for the benefit of Lender or such other person or entity, effective immediately and automatically upon the occurrence of any such transfer, attorn to Lender or such other person or entity as landlord under the Lease and shall be bound under all provisions of the Lease including, but not limited to, the obligation to pay all rent required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of the Lease, for the remainder of the Lease term. 

	
4.
	
PROTECTION OF LENDER. If Lender succeeds to the interest of the landlord under the Lease, Lender shall assume and perform the landlord’s obligations under the Lease for the benefit of Tenant thereafter, provided that Lender shall not be:

	
 
	
(a)
	
liable for any act or omission of any previous landlord under the Lease;

	
 
	
(b)
	
subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant may have against any previous landlord under the Lease;

	
 
	
(c)
	
bound by any payment of rent or additional rent which Tenant might have paid for more than one month in advance of the due date under the Lease to any previous landlord;

	
 
	
(d)
	
obligated to make any payment to Tenant which any previous landlord was required to make before Lender succeeded to the landlord’s interest, provided, however, that if any amount of the Construction Allowance (as defined in the Lease) remains to be paid by the prior landlord under Exhibit C, Tenant may offset such remaining amounts from the payment of Rent (as defined in the Lease);

	
 
	
(e)
	
accountable for any monies deposited with any previous landlord (including security deposits), except to the extent such monies are actually received by Lender;

	
 
	
(f)
	
bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease or any waiver of any term of the Lease made without Lender’s written consent, except any amendment effected pursuant to Sections 34 through 37 of the Lease;

	
 
	
(g)
	
bound by any surrender or termination of the Lease made without Lender’s written consent (unless effected unilaterally by Tenant pursuant to the express terms of the Lease);

	
 
	
(h)
	
obligated to complete any improvement or construction on the Property or to pay or reimburse Tenant for any tenant improvement allowance, construction allowance or leasing commissions, provided, however, that if any amount of the Construction Allowance remains to be paid by the prior landlord under Exhibit C, Tenant may offset such remaining amounts from the payment of Rent;

	
 
	
(i)
	
liable for any default of any previous landlord under the Lease;

	
 
	
(j)
	
bound by any provision in the Lease granting Tenant a purchase option or first right of refusal or offer with regard to the Property. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Lease, upon any such succession, the Lease shall be deemed to have been automatically amended to provide that Lender’s obligations and liabilities under the Lease shall be limited solely to Lender’s interest, if any, in the Property, and the undistributed rents, issues, profits and proceeds thereof (collectively, “Lender’s Interest”) and, following such succession, Tenant shall look exclusively to Lender’s Interest for the payment or discharge of any obligations of Lender under the Lease.

	
5.
	
LENDER’S RIGHT TO CURE. Tenant shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice of any default(s) by landlord under the Lease in the same manner as, and whenever, Tenant shall give any such notice to Owner. Lender shall have the right to remedy, or cause to be remedied, any default by Owner under the Lease, and, for such purpose Tenant grants Lender such additional period of time as may be reasonable to enable Lender to remedy, or cause to be remedied, any such default in addition to the period given to Owner for remedying, or causing to be remedied, any such default. Tenant shall accept performance by Lender of any covenant or condition to be performed by Owner under the Lease with the same force and effect as though performed by Owner. No default by Landlord under the Lease shall exist or shall be deemed to exist (a) so long as Lender, in good faith, shall have commenced to cure such default within the above-referenced time period and shall be prosecuting the same to completion with reasonable diligence, subject to force majeure, or (b) if possession of the Premises is required in order to cure such default, or if such default is not susceptible of being cured by Lender, so long as Lender, in good faith, shall have notified Tenant that Lender intends to institute enforcement proceedings under the Security Documents, and, thereafter, so long as such proceedings shall have been instituted and shall be prosecuted with reasonable diligence. Lender shall have the right, without notice to Tenant or Tenant’s consent, to foreclose the Mortgage or to accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or otherwise realize upon the Mortgage or to exercise any other remedies under the Security Documents or state law.

2

 

	
6.
	
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS. Tenant consents to the Assignment of Leases and Rents and acknowledges Lender shall have no duty, liability or obligation whatsoever under the Lease or any extension or renewal thereof, either by virtue of said assignment or by any subsequent receipt or collection of rents thereunder, unless Lender shall specifically undertake such liability in writing or unless Lender or its designee or nominee becomes, and then only with respect to periods in which Lender or its designee or nominee becomes, the fee owner of the Premises. Upon Tenant’s receipt of a written notice from Lender of a default by Owner under the Loan, Tenant shall thereafter, if requested by Lender, pay rent to Lender in accordance with the terms of the Lease and Owner agrees that any payment to Lender in such case shall be in satisfaction of Tenant’s obligations to Owner. Lender’s delivery of such notice to Tenant, or Tenant’s compliance therewith, shall not be deemed to (a) cause Lender to succeed to or assume any obligations or responsibilities of Owner under the Lease or (b) relieve Owner of any of its obligations under the Lease. 

	
7.
	
INSURANCE PROCEEDS AND CONDEMNATION AWARDS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Lease, the terms of the Loan Documents shall continue to govern with respect to the disposition of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, and any obligations of Owner to restore the Property following a casualty or condemnation shall, insofar as they apply to Lender, be limited to the amount of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards received by Lender after the deduction of all costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such proceeds or awards. Following the foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage, the provisions of this section shall remain in full force and effect unless and until fee title to the Premises becomes vested in a person or entity other than (a) the holder of the Loan at the time of such foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure or (b) a parent, subsidiary or affiliate of such holder.

	
8.
	
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASE BY TENANT. Tenant shall not assign any right or interest of Tenant under the Lease (except for an assignment that is permitted under the Lease without Owner’s consent), without Lender’s prior written consent.

	
9.
	
MISCELLANEOUS

	
 
	
9.1
	
 Heirs, Successors and Assigns. The covenants herein shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the heirs, successors and assigns of the parties hereto. The term “Lender” as used herein includes any successor or assign of the named Lender herein, including without limitation, any co-lender at the time of making the Loan, any purchaser at a foreclosure sale and any transferee pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure, and their successors and assigns, trustees and agents, as well as any single purpose entity established by Lender to take title to the Property by reason of such foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure. The terms “Tenant” and “Owner” as used herein include any successor or assign of the named Tenant and Owner herein, respectively; provided, however, that such reference to Tenant’s or Owner’s successors and assigns shall not be construed as Lender’s consent to any assignment or other transfer by Tenant or Owner.

	
 
	
9.2

9.3
	
Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Lender and Tenant with regard to the subordination of the Lease to the Security Documents and the rights and obligations of Tenant and Lender as to the subject matter of this Agreement, and shall supersede and cancel, but only insofar as would affect the priority between the Security Documents and the Lease, any prior agreements as to such subordination, including, without limitation, those provisions, if any, contained in the Lease which provide for the subordination of the Lease to a deed or deeds of trust, a mortgage or mortgages, a deed or deeds to secure debt or a trust indenture or trust indentures. 

	
 
	
9.4
	
Disbursements. Lender, in making disbursements of any funds pursuant to the Loan Documents, is under no obligation to, nor has Lender represented that it will, monitor or control the application of such funds by the recipient and any application of such funds for purposes other than those provided for in the Loan Documents shall not defeat this agreement to subordinate in whole or in part.

	
 
	
9.5
	
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute and be construed as one and the same instrument.

If any legal action, suit or proceeding is commenced between Tenant and Lender regarding their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover, in addition to damages or other relief, costs and expenses, attorneys’ fees and court costs (including, without limitation, expert witness fees). As used herein, the term “prevailing party” shall mean the party which obtains the principal relief it has sought, whether by compromise settlement or judgment. If the party which commenced or instituted the action, suit or proceeding shall dismiss or discontinue it without the concurrence of the other party, such other party shall be deemed the prevailing party.

	
 
	
9.8
	
Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to be enforceable, or if such modification is not practicable, such provision shall be deemed deleted from this Agreement, and the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and shall be liberally construed in favor of Lender.

	
 
	
9.9
	
Termination; Amendment.

9.10
	
Governing Law. This Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to or in connection with this Agreement, the relationship of the parties or the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the parties shall be governed by the law of the state where the Property is located, without regard to any conflicts of law principles.

	
 
	
9.11
	
 Authority. Tenant represents and warrants to Lender that all persons executing this Agreement on behalf of Tenant are authorized by Tenant to do so and that such execution hereof is the binding act of Tenant enforceable against Tenant.

	
 
	
9.12
	
Form of Agreement. Owner and Tenant acknowledge that Lender enters into numerous agreements of this type on a regular basis, both in its own capacity and as a commercial mortgage servicer on behalf of other lenders, and that the specific provisions contained in any agreement of this type entered into by Lender will vary depending on numerous transaction-specific factors, including, without limitation, the borrowers, loan documents, tenants, leases, servicers, servicing agreements and property and market conditions involved in the transaction. Accordingly, Owner and Tenant further acknowledge that the specific provisions contained in this Agreement will not necessarily be acceptable to Lender in connection with any other transaction.
