Each Party hereby expressly covenants and agrees to observe and perform all of the conditions and covenants herein contained on its part to be observed and performed.

1.02.Landlord and Tenant have mutually agreed and stipulated that the Demised Premises leased hereunder has a rentable area of 20,913 square feet.  Said Premises, together with all fixtures and equipment, including Landlord’s Furniture (as defined in Article 42), which at the commencement or during the term of this Lease are thereto attached (except items not deemed to be included therein and removable by Tenant as provided in Article 13), shall constitute the “Demised Premises”. 

1.03.The term of this Lease, for which the Demised Premises are hereby leased, shall commence on the Commencement Date and, subject to Tenant’s renewal rights as set forth herein, shall end at 5:00 P.M. on the last day of the calendar month in which occurs the date that is three (3) years and two (2) months after the Commencement Date, which ending date is hereinafter called the “Expiration Date”, or shall end on such earlier date upon which said Term may expire or be canceled or terminated pursuant to any of the provisions of this Lease or pursuant to law.  Promptly following the Commencement Date, Landlord and Tenant shall execute a confirmation, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to both parties, confirming the Commencement Date, the Rent Commencement Date and the Expiration Date; provided, however, failure to execute and deliver such confirmation shall not affect the validity of the Commencement Date, the Rent Commencement Date or the Expiration Date as herein set forth.

1.04.The rents reserved under this Lease (collectively the “Rent”), for the Term thereof, shall be and consist of:

(a)Fixed Base Rent in the amounts set forth in the Preamble, which shall be payable in monthly installments, as above described, on the first day of each and every calendar month during the Term commencing on the Rent Commencement Date (except as otherwise set forth in Section 1.06); and

(b)Additional Rent consisting of all such other sums of money as shall become due from and payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder (for default in payment of which Landlord shall have the same remedies as for a default in payment of fixed rent), all to be paid to Landlord at its office, or such other place, or to such agent at such place, as Landlord may designate by notice to Tenant, in lawful money of the United States of America.

1.05.Tenant shall pay the Fixed Base Rent and Additional Rent as herein reserved promptly as and when the same shall become due and payable, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Lease, without further demand therefor, and without any rights of abatement, deduction, counterclaim or setoff whatsoever except as otherwise expressly set forth herein.

4846-0294-9028.v11

1.06.Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant shall pay upon the execution and delivery of this Lease an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Security Deposit and (ii) the first month’s Fixed Base Rent.  If the Rent Commencement Date is on the first day of a month, such payment of Fixed Base Rent shall be credited against the first full monthly installment of Fixed Base Rent due and payable under this Lease.  If the Rent Commencement Date is not on the first day of a month, then on the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay prorated Fixed Based Rent for the period from the Rent Commencement Date through the last day of such month (both dates inclusive) and the payment of Fixed Base Rent made by Tenant upon the execution and delivery of this Lease shall be credited toward Fixed Base Rent for the next succeeding calendar month.

1.07.Any payment of Rent, including monthly Fixed Base Rent or any portion thereof, and any Additional Rent, which is not received within five (5) days after it is due (any such period to be referred to as a “Grace Period”), will be subject to a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the unpaid amount.  However, not more than once in each calendar year, if applicable, Tenant may have an additional five (5) business day period after the Grace Period (any such additional period to be referred to as a “Second Grace Period”) before any late payment of Rent is subject to the late charge in the preceding sentence.  The late charge, if assessed, will be compensation for Landlord’s additional cost of processing late payments.  In addition, any Rent which is not paid within thirty (30) days after it is due, including monthly Fixed Base Rent, will accrue interest at a rate equal to the Prime Rate as defined herein plus five percent (5%) per annum, from the date on which it was due until the date on which it is paid in full with accrued interest.  If Tenant is in default of this Lease for failure to pay Rent, in addition to the late charges and interest set forth above, Tenant shall be charged with and responsible for payment of all reasonable attorney fees incurred by Landlord in connection with the collection of all sums due Landlord.

If the statement furnished by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to this Section shall indicate that Tenant’s Projected Share of Increase exceeded Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase, then Landlord shall either forthwith pay the amount of such excess directly to Tenant concurrently with the statement, or shall credit the same against Tenant’s next owed monthly installment of rent within ten days thereafter.  If such statement furnished by Landlord to Tenant shall indicate that the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase exceeded Tenant’s Projected Share of Increase for the then Operating Year, Tenant shall then pay the amount of such excess to Landlord within thirty (30) days; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be required to pay Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase for any period prior to the first (1st) anniversary of the Commencement Date.

5.05.Commencing with the first Operating Year and thereafter, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent for the then Operating Year, Tenant’s Projected Share of Increase; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be required to pay Tenant’s Projected Share of Increase for any period prior to the first (1st) anniversary of the Commencement Date.

5.06.After the expiration of the first Operating Year and after the expiration of each Operating Year thereafter, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a reasonably detailed statement of the Operating Expenses incurred for such Operating Year which statement shall set forth Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase, if any.  If the statement furnished by Landlord to Tenant, pursuant to this Section, at the end of the then Operating Year shall indicate that Tenant’s Projected Share of Increase exceeded Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase, Landlord shall either forthwith pay the amount of excess directly to Tenant concurrently with the statement or credit same against Tenant’s next monthly installment of rent within thirty (30) days.  If such statement furnished by Landlord to Tenant hereunder shall indicate that the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase exceeded Tenant’s Projected Share of Increase for the then Operating Year, Tenant shall forthwith pay the amount of such excess to Landlord within thirty (30) days.  If Landlord has not provided Tenant a written statement for Tenant’s Projected Share of Increase as of the commencement of any Operating Year, Tenant shall be obligated to continue to pay as Additional Rent each month at the same rate as reflected in the previous estimate furnished by Landlord until such time as Landlord has sent the statement whereupon appropriate adjustments will be made.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant's contribution towards Landlord's Controllable Operating Expenses (as that term is defined below) shall not be increased by more than five percent (5%) per calendar year on a compounding and cumulative basis for the initial Term of the Lease (the “Operating Expense Cap”). “Controllable Operating Expenses” shall mean all Operating Expenses with the exception of the costs and expenses related to snow and ice removal, weather related expenses, security, insurance premiums and deductibles, costs of compliance with Laws, fuel charges and all utilities. The costs and expenses related to snow and ice removal, weather related expenses, security, insurance premiums and deductibles, costs of compliance with Laws, fuel charges and all utilities shall be deemed “Non-Controllable Operating Expenses” and Non-Controllable Operating Expenses shall be excluded from any Operating Expense Cap and Tenant 

- 14 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

shall pay its full Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase of such Non-Controllable Operating Expenses, regardless of any Operating Expense Cap.  In the event Tenant exercises a Renewal Period, Tenant's Proportionate Share of Increase for the first Lease Year of such Renewal Period shall be its full Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase, without any Operating Expense Cap being applied, based on Operating Expenses for that first full Lease Year of the applicable Renewal Period. Thereafter, the Operating Expense Cap shall be applied as set forth herein.

5.07.Every statement given by Landlord pursuant to Sections 5.03 and 5.06 shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant unless (i) within ninety (90) days after the receipt of such statement Tenant shall have given a notice to Landlord that Tenant disputes the correctness of the statement, specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such assertion.  Pending resolution of such a dispute, and absent manifest error, Tenant shall pay the Additional Rent in accordance with the statement furnished by Landlord.  Landlord agrees, upon prior written request, during normal business hours to make available for Tenant’s inspection, at Landlord’s offices, Landlord’s books and records which are relevant to any items in dispute.  If after such inspection, Tenant still disputes such statement of Taxes or Operating Expenses, either party may refer the decision of the issues raised to a reputable independent firm of certified public accountants, selected by Landlord and approved by Tenant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld as long as such firm is a regionally or nationally recognized firm with at least twenty (20) partners or principals who are certified public accountants, and the decision of such accounting firm shall be conclusively binding upon the Parties Tenant shall not be permitted to use any accounting firm or other company which derives or ties its compensation from the savings realized by Tenant for any audit. The fees and expenses involved in such decision shall be borne by Tenant, unless the accounting firm determines that Landlord’s original calculation of the actual Taxes or Operating Expenses was in error by more than five percent (5%), in which event Landlord shall pay the reasonable fees of such accounting firm.  If the inspection shows an undercharge to Tenant, Tenant shall pay the amount due to Landlord within thirty (30) days after completion of the audit.  If the audit indicates an overpayment by Tenant, then Tenant shall be entitled at Landlord’s sole option to either (i) to receive a refund from Landlord within thirty (30) days after finalization of such audit, or (ii) a credit in an amount equal to such excess against Rent next becoming due under this Lease.  In no event shall this Lease be terminable nor shall Landlord be liable for damages based upon any disagreement regarding an adjustment of Operating Expenses, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Section 5.07.  Tenant recognizes the confidential nature of Landlord’s books and records and agrees to maintain the information obtained from any examination conducted pursuant to this Section 5.07 in strict confidence.  

ARTICLE 6

SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGEES

6.01.This Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust, ground lease, installment sale agreement and/or other instrument or encumbrance heretofore or hereafter placed upon any or all of Landlord’s interest or estate in the Premises or the remainder of the Property and of all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof (all of which are hereinafter referred to collectively as a “mortgage”), all automatically and without the necessity of any further action on the part of the Tenant to effectuate such subordination.  Within twenty-five (25) days of any request by Landlord, Tenant shall, at the 

- 15 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

request of the holder of any such mortgage, attorn to such holder, and shall execute, acknowledge and deliver, upon demand by the Landlord or such holder, such further instrument or instruments evidencing such subordination of the Tenant’s right, title and interest under this Lease to the lien of any such mortgage, and such further instrument or instruments evidencing and elaborating such attornment, as shall be reasonably desired by such holder.  Further, (i) Landlord, at Landlord’s sole cost, shall obtain a subordination, non-disturbance agreement (“SNDA”) from the current holder of any ground lease and/or mortgage on in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H; and (ii) Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an SNDA from any future ground lessees or mortgagees substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H.  

ARTICLE 7

QUIET ENJOYMENT

7.01.Landlord covenants that if and so long as Tenant pays Fixed Base Rent and any Additional Rent as herein provided and performs Tenant’s covenants hereof, Landlord shall do nothing to affect Tenant’s right to peacefully and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Demised Premises for the term herein defined, subject to all provisions of this Lease and to any mortgage to which this Lease shall be subordinate.

ARTICLE 8

ASSIGNMENT, MORTGAGING, SUBLETTING

8.01.Tenant may not mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, assign, transfer, sublet or otherwise deal with this Lease or the Premises in any manner except as specifically provided for in this Article 8.

8.02.(a) Except for a Permitted Transfer (as hereinafter defined), in the event that Tenant desires to sublease the whole or any portion of the Demised Premises or assign the within Lease to any other party, the terms and conditions of such sublease or assignment shall be communicated to Landlord in writing not less than twenty (20) days prior to the effective date of any such sublease or assignment and Landlord shall thereafter have ten (10) business days to respond to Tenant’s request for such sublease or assignment.

(b)Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet the whole or any portion of the Premises, subject to Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, on the basis of the following terms and conditions (it being agreed that if the terms of any mortgage loan documents encumbering the Property require the mortgagee of the Property to consent to any sublease or assignment, and the mortgagee of the Property fails or refuses to consent to a proposed sublease or assignment, then Landlord shall not be deemed to have acted unreasonably in withholding its consent to such sublease or assignment):

(1)The Tenant shall provide to Landlord the name and address of the assignee or subtenant.

(2)The assignee shall assume, by written instrument, all of the obligations of this Lease, and a copy of such assumption agreement shall be furnished to Landlord within ten (10) days of its execution.  Any sublease shall expressly 

- 16 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

acknowledge that said subtenant’s rights against the Landlord shall be no greater than those of the Tenant.

(3)The Tenant and each assignee (including if such assignee is in place as a result of a Permitted Transfer), shall be and remain liable for the observance of all the covenants and provisions of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the payment of Fixed Base Rent and Additional Rent reserved herein, as and when required to be paid, through the entire Term of this Lease.

(4)The Tenant and any assignee shall promptly pay to Landlord one-half (1/2) of any net consideration received for any assignment or one-half (1/2) of the net sublease rent, as and when received, in excess of the Fixed Base Rent and Additional Rent required to be paid by Tenant for the period affected by said assignment or sublease for the area sublet, computed on the basis of an average square foot rent for the gross square footage Tenant has leased.  As used herein, net consideration and/or net rent shall mean gross rent (Fixed Base and Additional) or gross consideration less any reasonable legal fees, brokerage commissions, and/or tenant work paid by Tenant in connection with the assignment or sublet, said legal fees, brokerage commissions or tenant work to be amortized over the term of the sublet.

(5)In any event, the acceptance by Landlord of any rent (Fixed Base and Additional) from the assignee or from any of the subtenants or the failure of Landlord to insist upon a strict performance of any of the terms, conditions and covenants herein shall not release Tenant herein, nor any assignee assuming this Lease, from any and all of the obligations herein during and for the entire Term of this Lease.

(6)Landlord shall require a One Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollar ($1,500.00) payment to cover its handling charges for each request for consent to any sublet or assignment prior to its consideration of the same.

(7)Tenant shall have no claim, and hereby waives the right to any claim, against Landlord for money damages by reason of any refusal, withholding or delaying by Landlord of any consent, and in such event, Tenant’s only remedies therefor shall be an action for specific performance, injunction or declaratory judgment to enforce any such requirement.

8.03.Any sublet or assignment to (i) an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Tenant, or (ii) any successor of Tenant resulting from a merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the assets or equity interests of Tenant or other form of corporate reorganization (in any such case, a “Permitted Transfer”), shall not be subject to the provisions of Subsection 8.02(b)(4) and shall not require Landlord’s prior written consent, but the provisions of Subsections 8.02(b)(2), (3), (5) and (7) shall apply to any Permitted Transfer.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order for an assignment resulting from a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant to a third party to be deemed a Permitted Transfer, (x) the purchaser of Tenant’s assets must have a net worth computed in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles at least equal to the net worth of Tenant on the date of 

- 17 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

such sublet or assignment, and (y) upon request provide proof reasonably satisfactory to Landlord of such net worth prior to the effective date of any such transaction.   

8.04.Except as specifically set forth above, no portion of the Demised Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease may be acquired by any other person or entity, whether by assignment, mortgage, sublease, transfer, operation of law or act of the Tenant, nor shall Tenant pledge its interest in this Lease or in any security deposit required hereunder.

9.02.Tenant may, at its expense (and if necessary, in the name of but without expense to Landlord) contest, by appropriate proceedings prosecuted diligently and in good faith, the validity, or applicability to the Demised Premises, of any law or requirement of public authority, and Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant at no cost to Landlord in such proceedings provided that:

(a)Tenant shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Landlord against all liability, loss or damage which Landlord shall suffer by reason of such non-compliance or contest, including reasonable attorney’s fees and other expenses reasonably incurred by Landlord;

(b)Such non-compliance or contest shall not constitute or result in any violation of any superior mortgage, or, if such superior mortgage shall permit such non-compliance or contest on condition of the taking of action or furnishing of security by Landlord, such action shall be taken and such security shall be furnished at the expense of Tenant; 

(c)Tenant shall keep Landlord advised as to the status of such proceedings;

(d)Tenant, by its acts or omissions, does not place Landlord or other tenants in jeopardy or subject to any form of penalty or fine; and

- 18 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

in the State of New Jersey upon property of every description and kind owned by Tenant and or under Tenant’s care, custody or control located in the Building or for which Tenant is legally liable or installed by or on behalf of Tenant, including by way of example and not by way of limitation, furniture, fixtures, installation and any other personal property in an amount equal to the full replacement costs thereof; (b) Commercial General Liability Insurance Coverage to include personal injury, bodily injury, broad form property damage, operations hazard, owner’s protective coverage, and blanket contractual liability naming Landlord, and Landlord’s mortgagee or trust deed holder and ground landlord (if any) as additional named insureds in an amount per occurrence of not less than One Million and 00/100 ($1,000,000) Dollars combined single limit per occurrence and Two Million and 00/100 ($2,000,000) Dollars general aggregate for bodily injury or death and property damage occurring in, upon, adjacent, or connected with the Demised Premises and any part thereof on a per location basis, as well as at least One Million and 00/100 ($1,000,000) Dollars of coverage for property insurance.  Tenant shall name such other insureds associated with the Building as Landlord reasonably requests.  Tenant shall pay all premiums and charges therefor and upon failure to do so Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make payments, and in such latter event the Tenant agrees to pay the amount thereof to Landlord on demand and said sum shall be deemed to be Additional Rent, and in each instance collectible on the first day of any month following the date of notice to Tenant in the same manner as though it were rent originally reserved hereunder, together with interest thereon at the rate of three points in excess of Prime Rate.  Copies of the original insurance policies or appropriate certificates shall be deposited with Landlord together with any renewals, replacements or endorsements at all times to the end that said insurance shall be in full force and effect for the benefit of the Landlord during the Term of this Lease; (c) Worker’s Compensation insurance in form and amount as required by law; (d) excess or “umbrella” liability insurance in an amount of not less than Three Million and 00/100 ($3,000,000) Dollars; and (e) any other form or forms of insurance or any increase in the limits of any of the aforesaid enumerated coverages or other forms of insurance as Landlord or the mortgagee of Landlord may reasonably require from time to time if in the reasonable opinion of Landlord or said mortgagees or said coverage and/or limits become inadequate or less than that commonly maintained by prudent tenants in similar buildings in the area by tenants making similar uses.

10.02.All insurance policies required pursuant to this Article shall be taken out with insurers rated A- XII by A.M. Best Company, who are licensed to do business in the State of New Jersey.  A policy or certificate evidencing such insurance together with a paid bill shall be delivered to Landlord not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement of the Term hereof.  Such insurance policy or certificates will unequivocally provide an undertaking by the insurers to notify Landlord and the mortgages of Landlord in writing not less than thirty (30) days prior to any material change, reduction in coverage, cancellation or other termination thereof (except that any cancellation for non-payment shall require only ten (10) days prior written notice).  Should a certificate of insurance initially be provided, a policy shall be furnished by Tenant within thirty (30) days of the Term’s commencement.  The aforesaid insurance shall be written with reasonable and customary deductibles.

10.03.Insofar as and to the extent that the following provision may be effective without invalidating or making it impossible to secure insurance coverage obtainable from responsible insurance companies doing business in the state in which the Property is located (even though extra premium may result therefrom), Landlord and Tenant mutually agree that Landlord and Tenant shall have no liability to one another, or to any insurer, by way of subrogation or otherwise, 

- 19 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

on account of any loss or damage to their respective property, the Demised Premises or its contents, or the Property, regardless of whether such loss or damage is caused by the negligence of Landlord or Tenant, arising out of any of the perils or casualties insured against by the property insurance policies carried, or required to be carried, by the parties pursuant to this Lease. The insurance policies obtained by Landlord and Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall permit waivers of subrogation which the insurer may otherwise have against the non-insuring party. In the event the policy or policies do not allow waiver of subrogation prior to loss, either Landlord or Tenant shall, at the request of the other party, deliver to the requesting party a waiver of subrogation endorsement in such form and content as may reasonably be required by the requesting party or its insurer.  In the event that any additional premium is payable by either party as a result of this provision, the other party shall reimburse the party paying such premium the amount of such extra premium.  The releases herein contained shall not apply to any loss or damage occasioned by the willful acts of either of the parties hereto.

10.04.Each party hereby releases the other party with respect to any claim (including a claim for negligence) which it might otherwise have against the other party for loss, damage, or destruction with respect to its property (including rental value or business interruption) occurring during the term of this Lease to the extent to which it is insured under a policy or policies containing a waiver of subrogation or naming the other party as an additional insured, as provided in this Article.  

10.05.Landlord covenants and agrees that throughout the Term it will insure the Building (excluding any property with respect to which Landlord is obligated to insure pursuant to Section 10.01, above) against damage by fire and standard extended coverage perils and public liability insurance in such reasonable amounts with such reasonable deductibles as required by any mortgagee or ground Landlord (if any), or if none, as would be carried by a prudent owner of a similar building in the area.  In addition, Landlord shall maintain and keep in force and effect during the Term, rental income insurance insuring Landlord against abatement or loss of Fixed Base Rent and Additional Rent, in case of fire or other casualty similarly insured against, in an amount at least equal to one year’s Fixed Base Rent for the Building.  Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, take out and carry any other forms of insurance as it or the mortgagee or ground lessor (if any) of Landlord may require or reasonably determine available.  All insurance carried by Landlord on the Building or Land shall be included as an Operating Expense pursuant to Article 5.

10.06  To the extent available, Landlord and Tenant each agree to include an endorsement in its property insurance policies reflecting the waiver of the insurer’s right of subrogation against the other party as contemplated by Section 10.03.

ARTICLE 11

RULES AND REGULATIONS

11.01.Tenant and its employees and agent shall faithfully observe and comply with the Rules and Regulations annexed hereto as Exhibit C, and such reasonable changes therein (whether by modification, elimination, or addition) as Landlord at any time or times hereafter may make and communicate in writing to Tenant; provided, however, that in case of any conflict or

4846-0294-9028.v11

inconsistency between the provisions of this Lease and any of the Rules and Regulations as originally promulgated or as changed, the provisions of this Lease shall control. 

11.02.Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed to impose upon Landlord any duty or obligation to Tenant to enforce the Rules and Regulations or the terms, covenants, or conditions in any other lease, as against any other tenant and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for violation of the same by any other tenant or its employees, agents or visitors.  However, Landlord shall not enforce any of the Rules and Regulations in such manner as to discriminate against Tenant or anyone claiming under or through Tenant.

DESTRUCTION OR DAMAGE

21.01.If the Building or the Demised Premises shall be partially or totally damaged or destroyed by fire or other cause, then whether or not the damage or destruction shall have resulted from the fault or neglect of Tenant, or its employees, agents or visitors (and if this Lease shall not have been terminated as in this Article hereinafter provided), Landlord shall repair the damage and restore and rebuild the Building and/or the Demised Premises, at its expense, with reasonable dispatch after notice to it of the damage or destruction; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be required to repair or replace any of the Tenant’s Property.

21.02.If the Building or the Demised Premises shall be partially damaged or partially destroyed by fire or other cause then the rents payable hereunder shall be abated to the extent that the Demised Premises shall have been rendered untenantable and for the period from the date of such damage or destruction to the date the damage shall be repaired or restored; provided, however, if the damage shall be attributable to the fault or negligence of Tenant, its agents or employees, then rent shall continue but shall be reduced by any amounts received by Landlord pursuant to Landlord’s coverage for business interruption and/or rent insurance attributable to the Demised Premises.  If all or a substantial majority of the Demised Premises shall be totally (which shall be deemed to include substantially totally) damaged or destroyed or rendered completely (which shall be deemed to include substantially completely) untenantable on account of fire or other cause, the Rents shall abate as of the date of the damage or destruction and until Landlord shall repair, restore, and rebuild the Building and the Demised Premises; provided, however, that should Tenant reoccupy a portion of the Demised Premises during the period of restoration work is taking place and prior to the date that the same are made completely tenantable, Rents allocable to such portion shall be payable by Tenant from the date of such occupancy.

21.03.If the Building or the Demised Premises shall be totally damaged or destroyed by fire or other cause, or if the Building shall be so damaged or destroyed by fire or other cause (whether or not the Demised Premises are damaged or destroyed) as to require a reasonably estimated expenditure of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the full insurable value of the Building immediately prior to the casualty, then in either such case, Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving Tenant notice to such effect within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the casualty.  In case of any damage or destruction mentioned in this Article, Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord if Landlord has not completed the making of the required repairs and restored and rebuilt the Building and the Demised Premises within twelve (12) months from the date of such damage or destruction, or within such period after such date (not exceeding six (6) months) as shall equal the aggregate period Landlord may have been delayed in doing so by adjustment of insurance, labor trouble, governmental controls, act of God, or any other cause beyond Landlord’s reasonable control (“Force Majeure”).

21.04.No damages, compensation, or claim shall be payable by Landlord for inconvenience, loss of business, or annoyance arising from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Demised Premises or of the Building pursuant to this Article.

21.05.Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Article, if Landlord or the holder of any superior mortgage shall be unable to collect all of the insurance proceeds (including rent insurance proceeds) applicable to damage or destruction of the Demised Premises or the Building by fire or other cause, by reason of some action or inaction on the part of Tenant or any of its employees, agents or contractors in connection with the processing of any claim, then, without prejudice to any other remedies which may be available against Tenant, there shall be no abatement of Tenant’s rents.

21.06.Landlord will not carry insurance of any kind on Tenant’s Property, and shall not be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the same.

21.07.The provisions of this Article shall be considered an express agreement governing any case of damage or destruction of the Demised Premises by fire or other casualty, and any law of the State of New Jersey providing for such a contingency in the absence of an express agreement, and any other law of like import, now or hereafter in force, shall have no application in such case.

21.08.If the Demised Premises and/or access thereto become partially or totally damaged or destroyed by any casualty not insured against, then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon giving the Tenant thirty (30) days’ notice and upon the expiration of said thirty (30) day notice period, this Lease shall terminate as if such termination date were the Expiration Date. In the event of an uninsured casualty, Landlord shall give Tenant notice within sixty (60) days after the casualty, whether or not Landlord intends to restore the Demised Premises and/or access to the Demised Premises regardless of the lack of insurance coverage. In the event Landlord (i) informs Tenant it has elected not to restore the Demised Premises and/or access thereto due to the casualty being uninsured; or (ii) if the casualty is not insured, fails to inform Tenant within sixty (60) days after the casualty that Landlord is uninsured for the casualty, Tenant shall also have the right, upon thirty (30) days’ notice, to terminate the Lease, and this Lease shall terminate as if such termination date provided by Tenant were the Expiration Date.

22.02.If any part of the Building shall be so taken, this Lease shall be unaffected by such taking, except that Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking, if the area of the Demised Premises shall not be reasonably sufficient for Tenant to continue feasible operation of its business.

Upon the date the right to possession shall vest in the condemning authority, this Lease shall cease and terminate with Rent adjusted to such date.

(c)Whenever any event shall occur or any contingency shall arise whereby this Lease or the estate hereby granted or the unexpired balance of the term hereof would, by operation of law or otherwise, devolve upon or pass to any person, firm, or corporation other than Tenant, except as expressly permitted by Article 8;

DAMAGES

26.01.If this Lease is terminated under the provisions of Article 24, or if Landlord shall re-enter the Demised Premises under the provisions of Article 25, or in the event of the termination of this Lease, or of re-entry, by or under any summary dispossess or other proceeding or action of any provision of law by reason of default hereunder on the part of Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as damages, at the election of Landlord, either;

(a)A sum which at the time of such termination of this Lease or at the time of any such re-entry by Landlord, as the case may be, represents the then value of the excess, if any, of (i) the aggregate of the Fixed Base Rent and the Additional Rent payable hereunder which would have been payable by Tenant (conclusively presuming the Additional Rent to be the same as was payable for the year immediately preceding such termination) for the period commencing with such earlier termination of this Lease or the date of any such re-entry, as the case may be, and ending with the Expiration Date, had this Lease not so terminated or had Landlord not so re-entered the Demised Premises, discounted to present value at the rate of four (4%) percent over (ii) the aggregate rental value of the Demised Premises for the same period, or

(b)Sums equal to the Fixed Base Rent and the Additional Rent (as above presumed) payable hereunder which would have been payable by Tenant had this Lease not so terminated, or had Landlord not so re-entered the Demised Premises, payable upon the due dates therefor specified herein following such termination or such re-entry and until the Expiration Date, provided, however, that if Landlord shall relet the Demised Premises during said period, Landlord shall credit Tenant with the net rents received by Landlord from such reletting, such net rents to be determined by first deducting from the gross rents as and when received by Landlord from such reletting, the expenses incurred or paid by Landlord in terminating this Lease or in re-entering the Demised Premises and in securing possession thereof, as well as the expenses of reletting, including altering and preparing the Demised Premises for new tenants, brokers’ commissions, and all other expenses properly chargeable against the Demised Premises and the rental therefrom; it being understood that any such reletting may be for a period shorter or longer than the remaining term of this Lease; but in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess of such net rents over the sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, nor shall Tenant be entitled in any suit for the collection of damages pursuant to this Subsection to a credit in respect of any net rents from a reletting, except to the extent that such net rents are actually received by Landlord.  Damages shall also include the unamortized portion of any brokerage fees or commissions paid by Landlord.  If the Demised Premises or any part thereof should be relet in combination with other space, then proper apportionment on a square foot basis shall be made of the rent received from such reletting and of the expenses of reletting.

If the Demised Premises or any part thereof to be relet by Landlord for the unexpired portion of the term of this Lease, or any part thereof, before presentation of proof of such damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved upon such reletting shall, prima facie, be the fair and reasonable rental value for the Demised Premises, or part thereof, so relet during the term of the reletting.

26.02.Suit or suits for the recovery of such damages, or any installments thereof, may be brought by Landlord from time to time at its election, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require Landlord to postpone suit until the date when the term of this Lease would have expired if it had not been so terminated under the provisions of Article 24, or under any provision of law, or had Landlord not re-entered the Demised Premises.  Nothing herein contained shall be construed to limit or preclude recovery by Landlord against Tenant of any sums or damages to which, in addition to the damages particularly provided above, Landlord may lawfully be entitled by reason of any default hereunder on the part of Tenant.  Nothing herein contained shall be construed to limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to seek and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of the termination of this Lease or re-entry on the Demised Premises for the default of Tenant under this Lease, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such damages are to be proved whether or not such amount be greater, equal to, or less than any of the sums referred to in Section 26.01.

26.03.In addition to the foregoing and without regard to whether this Lease is terminated, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand, all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord, including reasonable attorney’s fees, with respect to any lawsuit instituted or defended or any action taken by Landlord to enforce all or any of the provisions of this Lease.

	
26.04.
	
Notwithstanding anything in this Article 26 to the contrary, if this Lease is terminated under the provisions of Article 24, or if Landlord shall re-enter the Demised Premises under the provisions of Article 25, or in the event of the termination of this Lease, or of re-entry, by or under any summary dispossess or other proceeding or action of any provision of law by reason of default hereunder on the part of Tenant, Landlord shall not have the right to seek or collect damages from Tenant for Fixed Base Rent or Additional Rent not yet due and payable (i.e., Landlord shall not have the right to accelerate such rent) unless and until any mortgagee of the Land or Building or Landlord’s interest therein accelerates its loan as a result of Tenant’s default beyond all applicable notice and cure periods hereunder.

Subject to the foregoing, Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that Landlord has not made and is not making, and Tenant, in executing and delivering this Lease, is not relying 

- 36 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

upon any warranties, representations, promises or statements, except to the extent that the same are expressly set forth in this Lease. It is understood and agreed that all understandings and agreements heretofore had between the parties are merged in this Lease, which alone fully and completely express their agreements and that the same are entered into after full investigation, neither party relying upon any statement or representation not embodied in this Lease made by the other. Landlord further represents that, to Landlord’s actual knowledge:

(a) there are no pending or threatened action against Landlord or the Building relating to any alleged violations of the Laws from any governmental authority or third party; and 

(b) Landlord is not aware of the existence of any Hazardous Substances at, on or under the Property that require remediation under any Environmental Laws.  For purposes of this subsection: “Hazardous Substances” means any pollutant, toxic substance, hazardous substance, hazardous waste or any similar term as defined in any Environmental Law; and “Environmental Laws” means any Law applicable to Landlord or the Property and relating to environmental matters or concerning pollution or protection of the environment, including Laws governing the use, storage, disposal, discharge, cleanup or reporting of Hazardous Substances.

As used in this Section and elsewhere in the Lease, to “Landlord’s actual knowledge” shall mean actual, and not any implied, imputed or constructive knowledge, without any investigation by Landlord.

34.02.If any of the provisions of this Lease, or the application thereof to any person or circumstances, shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such provision or provisions to persons or circumstances other than those as to whom or which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and every provision of this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

34.03.This Lease shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to any conflict of law principles that might otherwise cause the laws of a different jurisdiction to govern or apply.

ARTICLE 35

SECURITY

35.01.Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the Security Deposit upon the execution of this Lease.  The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all the terms of this Lease by said Tenant to be observed and performed.  The Security Deposit shall not and may not be mortgaged, assigned, transferred, or encumbered by Tenant, 

- 37 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

without the written consent of Landlord, and any such act on the part of Tenant shall be without force and effect and shall not be binding upon Landlord.  If any of the Fixed Base Rent or Additional Rent herein reserved or any other sum payable by Tenant to Landlord shall be overdue and unpaid beyond applicable notice and cure periods, or if Landlord makes payment on behalf of Tenant, or if Tenant shall fail beyond applicable notice and cure periods to perform any of the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease then Landlord may, at its option and without prejudice to any other remedy which Landlord may have on account thereof, appropriate and apply the so much of the Security Deposit as may be necessary to compensate Landlord toward the payment of Fixed Base Rent or Additional Rent and any loss or damage sustained by Landlord due to such breach on the part of Tenant, plus expenses; and Tenant shall forthwith within ten (10) business days after demand restore the Security Deposit to the original sum deposited.  The issuance of a warrant and/or the re-entering of the Demised Premises by Landlord for any default on the part of Tenant or for any other reason prior to the expiration of the term shall not be deemed such a termination of this Lease as to entitle Tenant to the recovery of the Security Deposit.  If Tenant complies with all of the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease and pays all of the Fixed Base Rent and Additional Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord as they fall due, the Security Deposit shall be returned in full to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Term of this Lease and Tenant’s satisfaction of all its obligations accruing prior to this Lease expiration date.  In the event of bankruptcy or other creditor-debtor proceedings against Tenant, the Security Deposit and all other securities shall be deemed to be applied first to the payment of Fixed Base Rent and Additional Rent and other charges due Landlord for all periods prior to the filing of such proceedings.  In the event of sale by Landlord of the Building, Landlord shall deliver the then balance of the Security Deposit to the transferee of Landlord’s interest in the Demised Premises and Landlord shall thereupon be discharged from any further liability with respect to the Security Deposit and this provision shall also apply to any subsequent transferees.  No holder of a superior mortgage to which this Lease is subordinate shall be responsible in connection with the Security Deposit, by way of credit or payment of any Fixed Base Rent or Additional Rent, or otherwise, unless such mortgagee actually shall have received the entire Security Deposit.

35.02.The Security shall be in the form of an irrevocable, clean “Evergreen” automatically renewable commercial letter of credit (the "Letter of Credit") in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit I, issued by a “Confirming Bank” which shall mean a bank which is authorized by the State of New Jersey to conduct banking business in the State of New Jersey, and is a member of the New York Clearing House Association.  The Confirming Bank shall have combined capital, surplus and undivided profits of at least $500 million and a long-term rating of at least “Aa”, as published by Moody’s Investors Services, Inc., or its successor (collectively, the “Confirming Bank Criteria”).  If at any time during the term of this Lease, the Confirming Bank does not maintain the Confirming Bank Criteria, then Landlord may so notify Tenant and, unless Tenant delivers a replacement Letter of Credit from another bank meeting the Confirming Bank Criteria within ninety (90) days after receipt of such notice, Landlord may draw the full amount of the Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds as a cash security deposit in accordance with this Article 35.  The Letter of Credit shall provide that it shall be fully transferable by Landlord to any transferee of Landlord’s interest in the Demised Premises with any transfer fee paid by the beneficiary, and which shall also provide for presentation and payment in the City of New York, (or if not able to be presented in the City of New York, able to be presented via facsimile or other electronic method) which shall permit Landlord (a) to draw thereon up to the full amount of the 

- 38 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

credit evidenced thereby (but partial drawings shall be permitted) in the event of any default by Tenant beyond applicable notice and cure periods in the terms, provisions, covenants or conditions of this Lease or (b) to draw the full amount thereof to be held as  cash security pursuant to Article hereof if for any reason the Letter of Credit is not renewed within thirty (30) days prior to its expiration date, in which event Landlord covenants and agrees to deposit same in an interest bearing account or certificate.  Landlord shall be entitled to and shall be paid the lesser of (x) interest earned on such cash security deposit or (y) to 1% per annum of such security deposit for administration of such security account or certificate solely to the extent held as cash pursuant to the preceding sentence.  The remainder of the interest on such account or certificate shall belong to Tenant, but shall be retained by Landlord as additional security in accordance with the terms of this paragraph.  The Letter of Credit (and each renewal thereof) shall (i) be for a term of not less than one (1) year (except that the last Letter of Credit shall be for a term expiring sixty (60) days after the Expiration Date), (ii) expressly provide for the issuing bank to notify Landlord in writing not less than sixty (60) days prior to its expiration as to its non-renewal, and (iii) if not so renewed each year (or later period of expiration) shall be immediately available for Landlord to draw up to the full amount of such credit (to be held as cash security as aforesaid).  Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each Letter of Credit (and every renewal thereof if not automatically renewed by its terms), Tenant shall deliver a renewal Letter or if Tenant is not renewing the then current Evergreen Letter, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a new Letter of Credit subject to all of the conditions aforesaid, all to the intent and purposes, that a Letter of Credit in the sum of $100,000.00 shall be in effect during the entire term of this lease. In the event Tenant is issuing a new Letter of Credit, Landlord shall deliver the Letter of Credit being replaced to Tenant concurrently with receipt of the new Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit shall specifically provide that any transfer fees shall be payable by the beneficiary.  Failure by Tenant to comply with the provisions of this Article shall be deemed a material default hereunder entitling Landlord to exercise any and all remedies as provided in this Lease for default in the payment of Fixed Base Rent and, to draw on the existing Letter of Credit up to its full amount.

ARTICLE 36

PARTIES BOUND

36.01.The obligations of this Lease shall bind and benefit the successors and assigns of the Parties with the same effect as if mentioned in each instance where a Party is named or referred to, except that no violation of the provisions of Article 8 shall operate to vest any rights in any successor or assignee of Tenant and that the provisions of this Article shall not be construed as modifying the conditions of limitation contained in Article 24.  However, the obligations of Landlord under this Lease shall not be binding upon Landlord herein named with respect to any period subsequent to the transfer of its interest in the Building as owner or Tenant thereof and in event of such transfer, said obligations shall thereafter be binding upon each transferee of the interest of Landlord herein named as such owner or Tenant of the Building, but only with respect to the period ending with a subsequent transfer within the meaning of this Article.

36.02.If Landlord shall be an individual, joint venture, tenancy in common, partnership, trust, unincorporated association, or other unincorporated aggregate of individuals and/or entities or a corporation, Tenant shall look only to such Landlord’s estate and property in the Property and the rents and proceeds therefrom  and, where expressly so provided in this Lease, to offset against 

- 39 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

the rents payable under this Lease for the collection of a judgment (or other judicial process) which requires the payment of money by Landlord in the event of any default by Landlord hereunder.  No other property or assets of such Landlord shall be subject to levy, execution or other enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies under or with respect to this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant hereunder, or Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Demised Premises.  The Parties agree that except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, neither party shall be liable to the other for any special, indirect, or consequential damages arising out of Landlord’s breach of this Lease.

ARTICLE 37

CONSENTS

37.01.Wherever it is specifically provided in this Lease that a Party’s consent is not to be unreasonably withheld, a response to a request for such consent shall also not be unreasonably delayed or conditioned.  If either Landlord or Tenant considers that the other had unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned a consent, it shall so notify the other Party within ten (10) days after receipt of notice of denial of the requested consent or, in case notice of denial is not received, within ten (10) days after making its request for the consent, or in the case such requested consent is conditioned, within ten (10) days of receiving notice of such condition.

37.02.Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages against Landlord which it may have based upon any assertion that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed any such consent, and Tenant agrees that its sole remedy shall be an action or proceeding to enforce any such provision or for specific performance, injunction or declaratory judgment.  The sole remedy for Landlord’s unreasonably withholding, conditioning or delaying of consent shall be as provided in this Article.

ARTICLE 38

MORTGAGE FINANCING - TENANT COOPERATION

38.01.In the event that Landlord desires to seek mortgage financing secured by the Demised Premises or Landlord’s interest therein, Tenant agrees to reasonably cooperate with Landlord in support of Landlord’s application(s) by delivery to Landlord’s mortgage broker or mortgagee, an estoppel certificate as described in Article 32 and such other information as they shall reasonably require with respect to Tenant’s occupancy of the Demised Premises, provided however that Tenant shall not be obligated to provide any financial statements other than its most recently filed Form 10-K or 10-Q.  Any such cooperation by Tenant pursuant to this Section shall be at no cost or expense to Tenant.

ARTICLE 39

ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE

39.01.Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, comply with the New Jersey Industrial Site Recovery Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder (referred to as “ISRA”) as same relate to Tenant’s occupancy of the Demised Premises, as well as all other state, federal 

- 40 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

or local environmental law, ordinance, rule, or regulation either in existence as of the date hereof or enacted or promulgated after the date of this Lease, that concern the management, control, discharge, treatment and/or removal of hazardous discharges or otherwise affecting or affected by Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Demised Premises.  Tenant represents that Tenant’s North American Industry Classification System (“NAICS”) number does not subject it to ISRA.  

ARTICLE 40

HOLDING OVER

40.01.Tenant will have no right to remain in possession of all or part of the Demised Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.  The parties recognize and agree that the damage to Landlord resulting from any failure by Tenant to timely surrender possession of the Demised Premises as aforesaid will be extremely substantial, will exceed the amount of the monthly installments of the Fixed Base Rent and Additional Rent theretofore payable hereunder, and will be impossible to accurately measure.  Tenant therefore agrees that if possession of the Premises is not surrendered to Landlord upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, in addition to any other rights or remedies Landlord may have hereunder or at law, and without in any manner limiting Landlord’s right to demonstrate and collect any damages suffered by Landlord and arising from Tenant’s failure to surrender the Demised Premises as provided herein, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on account of use and occupancy of the Demised Premises for each month and for each portion of any month during which Tenant holds over in the Demised Premises after the expiration or termination of this Lease, in addition to all Additional Rent otherwise required to be paid hereunder, (i) a sum equal to one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the Fixed Base Rent which was payable under this Lease during the last month of the Term for the first three (3) months of holdover; and (ii) a sum equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Fixed Base Rent which was payable under this Lease during the last month of the Term thereafter.  In addition, Tenant agrees to indemnify and save Landlord harmless from and against all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) resulting from Tenant failing to so surrender the Premises within thirty (30) days after the expiration or termination of the Term, including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded on such delay exceeding thirty (30) days. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to permit Tenant to retain possession of the Demised Premises after the expiration or termination of this Lease or to limit in any manner Landlord’s right to regain possession of the Demised Premises through summary proceedings, or otherwise, and no acceptance by Landlord of payments from Tenant after the expiration or termination of this Lease shall be deemed to be other than on account of the amount to be paid by Tenant in accordance with the provisions of this Article 40.  The provisions of this Article 40 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

ARTICLE 41

41.01.The terms “include,” “including,” and “such as”, as used in this Lease, shall each be construed as if followed by the phrase “without being limited to.”

4846-0294-9028.v11

its own risk. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord represents and warrants that Landlord’s Furniture is owned by Landlord, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances. Tenant shall not remove, disassemble, repurpose, dispose of or sell any Landlord’s Furniture without Landlord’s prior written consent. Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord of any damage sustained by any of Landlord’s Furniture and provide Landlord the opportunity to inspect the damage. Tenant shall surrender Landlord’s Furniture together with the Premises at the end of the Term, in good condition, wear and tear excepted.

The first Renewal Period, if the Renewal Option therefor is exercised, will commence on the day after the initial Expiration Date upon the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease other than the Fixed Base Rent which shall be the Fair Market Value of the Demised Premises at the time of the commencement of the Renewal Period multiplied by the rentable square footage of the Demised Premises (but in no event less than the Fixed Base Rent payable hereunder by Tenant for the last 12 months of the original Term).  The second Renewal Period, if the Renewal Option therefor is exercised, will commence on the day after the scheduled expiration of the first Renewal Period upon the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease other than the Fixed Base Rent which shall be the Fair Market Value of the Demised Premises at the time of the commencement of the second Renewal Period multiplied by the rentable square footage of the Demised Premises (but in no event less than the Fixed Base Rent payable hereunder by Tenant for the last 12 months of the first Renewal Period).  The Fixed Base Rent shall automatically increase on each anniversary of the commencement of the applicable Renewal Period by an amount equal to three percent (3%) over the Fixed Base Rent for the prior Lease Year. 

43.02.Tenant shall exercise the first Renewal Option by giving written notice to Landlord (a “Renewal Notice”) not earlier than twelve (12) months and not later than nine (9) months prior to the initial Expiration Date, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE.  Tenant shall exercise the second Renewal Option, if applicable, by giving a Renewal Notice to Landlord not earlier than twelve (12) months and not later than nine (9) months prior to the scheduled expiration date of the first Renewal Period, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE.  If Tenant fails to give a Renewal Notice with respect to the first Renewal Option or the second Renewal Option, Tenant will be deemed to have waived such Renewal Option and the provisions of this Section shall be null and void.  The Renewal Options accorded in this Article 43 are personal to Tenant and may not be assigned except to an assignee of Tenant pursuant to a Permitted Transfer.

43.03.Fair Market Value shall mean the amount, on a per square foot basis, that a willing tenant would pay and a willing landlord would accept in an arms’ length transaction for office space comparable to the Demised Premises in the Plainsboro/Princeton New Jersey office market area, giving appropriate consideration to the recent renovations of the Building, tenant improvements, free rent periods, brokerage commissions, Tax and Operating Cost base years, and other applicable factors.

- 44 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

43.04.For purposes of determining “Fair Market Value” for either Renewal Period, the following procedure shall apply:

(a)Landlord shall, within fifteen (15) business days after its receipt of a Renewal Notice, provide its written determination of the Fair Market Value at the commencement of the applicable Renewal Period (“Landlord’s Determination”) to Tenant.  

(b)Within fifteen (15) business days after its receipt of Landlord’s Determination, Tenant may, if it does not agree with Landlord’s Determination, deliver notice to Landlord setting forth Tenant’s determination of the Fair Market Value at the commencement of the applicable Renewal Period (“Tenant’s Determination”).  If Tenant fails to object to Landlord’s Determination and provide Tenant’s Determination in writing within such fifteen (15) business day period, then Landlord’s Determination shall be deemed the Fair Market Value for the commencement of the applicable Renewal Period and shall be binding upon Tenant for purposes of determining Fixed Base Rent for such Renewal Period.

(c)If, within thirty (30) days after the delivery of Tenant’s Determination (the “Negotiation Period”), Landlord and Tenant shall mutually agree upon the determination of Fair Market Value (a “Mutual Determination”) for the commencement of the applicable Renewal Period, then their Mutual Determination shall constitute the Fair Market Value for purposes of determining Fixed Base Rent during the applicable Renewal Period.

(d)If Landlord and Tenant shall be unable to reach a Mutual Determination during the Negotiation Period, then Tenant may revoke its Renewal Notice at its sole option by advising Landlord in writing of such, or if Tenant fails or elects not to revoke its Renewal Notice then Landlord and Tenant shall jointly appoint an independent qualified commercial real estate broker with at least fifteen (15) years of office leasing experience in the Plainsboro/Princeton New Jersey office market area (the “Arbiter”) to determine Fair Market Value at the commencement of the applicable Renewal Period.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant shall have no right to revoke its Renewal Notice after the appointment of the Arbiter.

(e)If appointed, the Arbiter’s fee shall be borne equally by Landlord and Tenant.  In the event that Landlord and Tenant shall be unable to jointly agree on the designation of the Arbiter within fifteen (15) business days after the end of the Negotiation Period, then the Parties agree to allow the American Arbitration Association, or any successor organization, to designate the Arbiter in accordance with its commercial rules. 

(f)The Arbiter shall conduct such investigations as he or she may deem appropriate and shall, within thirty (30) days after the date of designation of the Arbiter, choose either Landlord’s Determination or Tenant’s Determination only, and such choice by the Arbiter shall be conclusive and binding upon Landlord and Tenant for purposes of determining Fixed Base Rent at the commencement of the applicable Renewal Period.  Each Party shall pay its own counsel fees and expenses, if any, in connection with any arbitration under this Article.  The Arbiter shall not have the power to add to, modify or change any of the provisions of this Lease.

ARTICLE 44

RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER

44.01Right of First Offer. So long as no default exists beyond applicable notice and cure periods either at the time that Landlord is obligated to give notice according to this Section or on the date on which Landlord would otherwise deliver possession of the First Offer Space (as that term is defined in this Section), Tenant will have a continuing right of first offer (the "Right of First Offer") to lease space on the Third Floor of the Building (the "First Offer Space"). Tenant's right to the First Offer Space is subject to the rights of any tenants under any leases hereafter existing of any space in the Building ("third party leases"), including any options to lease, rights of expansion, rights of first refusal, or other options or rights of any tenants ("third party rights") under any third party leases.  Landlord hereby confirms to Tenant that there are currently no existing third party rights.

44.02Exercise of Right of First Offer. The Right of First Offer will be exercised in accordance with, and subject to, the following terms and conditions:

	
 
	
(a)
	
Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing if it decides to lease the First Offer Space. Landlord's notice will include: 

	
 
	
(i)
	
the specific location of the First Offer Space and the rentable area comprising the First Offer Space;

	
 
	
(ii)
	
the approximate date on which the First Offer Space will become available for occupancy by Tenant; and

	
 
	
(iii)
	
the improvements, if any, as Landlord is willing to make to the First Offer Space.

	
 
	
(b)
	
Within ten (10) business days after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's notice, Tenant will exercise the Right of First Offer for the entirety of the First Offer Space, or the offer will expire as set forth in Paragraph (e) of this Article. If Tenant exercises the Right of First Offer, then the leasing of the First Offer Space will be on the same terms and conditions as the Lease except: 

	
 
	
(i)
	
If within the first two Lease Years of the Term, the Fixed Base Rent shall be at the same per square foot rental rate as then applicable to the Demised Premises.  If after the expiration of Lease Year 2, the Fixed Base Rent to be paid for all the First Offer Space will be the Fair Market Value as then determined by Landlord pursuant to Article 43. Tenant shall also pay all Additional Rent allocable to the First Offer Space.

	
 
	
(ii)
	
Tenant's obligation to pay Rent for the First Offer Space will commence on the date such space is made available to Tenant, but not sooner than the date specified in Landlord's notice unless Tenant occupies the First Offer Space prior to such date, and will continue through the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of the Lease.

- 46 -

4846-0294-9028.v11

	
 
	
(iii)
	
Landlord will deliver and Tenant will accept the First Offer Space in its then existing condition, on an "as is" basis. Tenant will not be entitled to receive any contribution or allowance from Landlord for improvement of the First Offer Space.

	
 
	
(c)
	
The rentable area of the Premises will be adjusted appropriately to include the rentable area of the First Offer Space and Landlord and Tenant will execute, at the request of either, an instrument stating the rentable area of the expanded Demised Premises, as so adjusted.

	
 
	
(d)
	
Tenant's right to occupy the First Offer Space will continue to and end at the same time as its right to occupy the Demised Premises.

	
 
	
(e)
	
If Tenant does not exercise the Right of First Offer as to the First Offer Space strictly in accordance with this Section, time being of the essence, the Right of First Offer will cease to exist as to the First Offer Space and Landlord shall be free for a period of twelve (12) months to lease the First Offer Space on such terms as Landlord may determine and without any restrictions by reason of this Lease.  In the event Landlord does not consummate a lease within such twelve (12) month period, the First Offer Space shall again be subject to Tenant’s Right of First Offer.

	
 
	
(f)
	
Tenant cannot assign its Right of First Offer to any sublessee of the Premises, or to any assignee of the Lease other than an assignee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, or to any other person; however, if the Tenant has exercised the Right of First Offer and has leased a First Offer Space, then Tenant's right to sublease the First Offer Space, or to assign its rights under the Lease to the First Offer Space, will be subject to Article 8.  Tenant’s Right of First Offer will expire upon any assignment of the Lease or sublease of the Demised Premises other than, in either case, a Permitted Transfer.

	
 
	
(g)
	
Upon inclusion of the First Offer Space, all references in the Lease to the "Premises" or “Demised Premises” shall be deemed to include the First Offer Space.

No tenant shall invite to the tenant’s demised premises, or permit the visit of, persons in such numbers or under such conditions as to interfere with the use and enjoyment of any of the plazas, entrances, corridors, escalators, elevators, and other facilities of the Building by other tenants. Fire exits and stairways are for emergency use only, and they shall not be used for any other purpose by the tenants, their employees, licensees, or invitees.  No tenant shall encumber or obstruct, or permit the encumbrance or obstruction of any of the sidewalks, plazas, entrances, corridors, escalators, elevators, fire exits, or stairways of the Building.

2.The Landlord may refuse admission to the Building outside of ordinary business hours to any person not having a pass issued by Landlord or the tenant whose demised premises are to be entered or not otherwise properly identified, and may require all persons admitted to or leaving the Building outside of ordinary business hours to register.  Any person whose presence in the Building at any time shall, in the judgment of the Landlord, be prejudicial to the safety, character, reputation, and interests of the Building or of its tenants may be denied access to the Building or may be ejected therefrom.  In case of invasion, riot, public excitement, or other commotion, the Landlord may prevent all access to the Building during the continuance of the same, by closing the doors or otherwise, for the safety of the tenants and protection of property of the Building.  Landlord may require any person leaving the Building with any package or other object to exhibit a pass from the tenant from whose premises the packaging or object is being removed, but the establishment and enforcement of such requirement shall not impose any responsibilities on the Landlord for the protection of any tenant against the removal of property from the premises of the tenant.  Landlord shall in no way be liable to any tenant for damages or loss arising from the admission, exclusion, or ejection of any person to or from the tenant’s premises or the Building under the provisions of this rule.  Canvassing, soliciting, or peddling in the Building is prohibited, and every tenant shall cooperate to prevent the same.

3.No tenant shall obtain or accept for use in its demised premises ice, food for on premises preparation other than warming, beverage towel, barbering, boot blackening, floor polishing, lighting maintenance, cleaning, or other similar services from any persons not authorized by Landlord in writing to furnish such services, provided that the charges for such services by persons authorized by Landlord are not excessive and where appropriate and consonant with the security and proper operation of the Building sufficient persons are so authorized for the same service to provide tenants with a reasonably competitive selection.

(c) the Lease is in full force and effect, Lender agrees to the following:  (i) Tenant’s use, possession, and enjoyment of the Premises and Tenant’s rights and privileges under the Lease shall not be diminished or interfered with by Lender for any reason whatsoever during the term of the Lease or any extensions or renewals permitted under the Lease under the terms existing as of the date of this Agreement; and (ii) Lender will not join Tenant as a party defendant in any action or proceeding to foreclose the Mortgage or to enforce any rights or remedies of Lender under the Mortgage which would cut-off, destroy, terminate, or extinguish the Lease under the terms existing as of the date of this Agreement.

subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord (including the Landlord), except as expressly set forth in the Lease; or

	
 
	
c.
	
liable for the return of any security deposit unless it actually receives such security deposit; or

	
 
	
d.
	
bound by the payment (to any prior landlord including the Landlord) of any rent or additional rent intended to cover any period of time more than the lesser of either (i) thirty (30) days, or (ii) two business day from Lender’s delivery of notice to Tenant next following the date on which the Lender succeeds to the interest of Landlord under the Lease and/or to title to the Demised Premises; or

	
 
	
e.
	
bound by any modification of the Lease unless previously approved in writing by Lender.

Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to waive any of Tenant’s rights and remedies against any prior landlord including Landlord.

22.If Lender (or its nominee, designee or assignee) shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under the Lease through possession or foreclosure action, delivery of a deed or otherwise, or another person purchases the Premises upon or following foreclosure of the Mortgage, then at the request of Lender (or its nominee or designee) or such purchaser (Lender, its nominee and designees, and such purchaser, each being a “Successor-Landlord”), (i) subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Tenant shall 

E-3

4846-0294-9028.v11

 

attorn to and recognize Successor-Landlord as Tenant’s landlord under the Lease, (ii) Successor-Landlord will accept the attornment of Tenant, and subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement, it will assume and perform all of Landlord's obligations under the Lease, and (iii) Successor-Landlord and Tenant shall each promptly execute and deliver any instrument that the requesting party may reasonably request to evidence the foregoing. 

23.Any notice, request, demand, statement or consent made hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, and shall be deemed given when postmarked and addressed as follows:

      DESCRIPTION OF THE REGISTRANT’S SECURITIES

      REGISTERED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 OF THE

      SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

      

      

      As of December 31, 2019, Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) had one class of securities, its Common Stock, registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

      

      

      Description of Common Stock

      

      

      General

      

      

      The following description of our Common Stock is a summary and does not purport to be complete. It is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of
        Incorporation”), and our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), each of which are incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of which this Exhibit 4.4 is a part. We encourage you to read our Certificate of
        Incorporation, Bylaws and the applicable provisions of the General Corporation Law of Delaware (the “DGCL”) for additional information.

      

      

      Authorized Capital Stock

      

      

      
        Our authorized capital stock consists of 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 15,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share. Our board of directors has the
            authority, without stockholder approval, except as required by the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, to issue additional shares of our capital stock. In addition, our board of directors has the authority, without further action
            by our stockholders, to designate the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of our Preferred Stock in one or more series.

        

        

      

      Voting Rights

      

      

      
        Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders, including the election of directors. Our Common Stock does not have cumulative voting rights.

        

        

      

      Dividend Rights

      

      

      Subject to the preferential rights of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, if any, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets legally available at the times and in the amounts that our board of directors may
        determine from time to time in its discretion.

      

      

      Classification of the Board of Directors

      

      

      Our Certificate of Incorporation provides for classified terms for the members of our board of directors. The board of directors is divided into three classes, and each director serves a three-year term.

       

      
        

        
          

        

      

      

      Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up

      

      

      Subject to the preferential rights of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, if any, holders of Common Stock will share equally in all assets legally available for distribution, after payment of all liabilities, to
        our stockholders in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.

      

      

      Other Rights and Preferences

      

      

      Our Common Stock has no sinking fund or redemption provisions or preemptive, conversion or exchange rights.

      

      

      Anti-Takeover Provisions

      

      

      Delaware Anti-takeover Law

      

      

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

      

      

      
        
          	

                	•	
                  the transaction is approved by the board of directors before the date the interested stockholder attained that status;

                

        

      

      
        
          	

                	•	
                  upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction
                    commenced; or

                

        

      

      
        
          	

                	•	
                  on or after the date the business combination is approved by the board and authorized at a meeting of stockholders by at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

                

        

      

      

      

      A “business combination” is defined to include any merger or consolidation involving a corporation and the interested stockholder; any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition involving the interested stockholder
          of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation; subject to exceptions, any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate
          share of the stock of any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; subject to exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation

        of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder; and the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through
          the corporation.

      

      

      In general, an “interested stockholder” is an entity or person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status, did own) 15% or more of a corporation’s voting
        stock.

      

      

      The fair price provision and Section 203 of the DGCL could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts with respect to us and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us even though such a transaction may
        offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.

      

      

      Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws Provisions

      

      

      Our Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision that requires at least 66-2/3% of our voting stockholders to approve a merger or certain other business transactions with, or proposed by, any holder of 15 percent or more of our voting
        stock, except in cases where certain directors approve the transaction or certain minimum price criteria and other procedural requirements are met.

      

      

      
        Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws may delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in our control or change in our management, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise
          receive a premium for their shares or transactions that our stockholders might otherwise deem to be in their best interests. Therefore, these provisions could adversely affect the price of our common stock. Among other things, our Certificate of
          Incorporation and Bylaws:

      

       

      
        

        
          

        

      

      

      

      
        
          
            	

                  	•	
                    permit our board of directors to issue up to 15,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, with any rights, preferences and privileges as they may designate;

                  

          

        

      

      
        

        

      

      
        
          
            	

                  	•	
                    provide that the authorized number of directors shall be fixed exclusively by the board of directors;

                  

          

        

      

      
        

        

      

      
        
          
            	

                  	•	
                    provide that the board of directors or any individual director may only be removed with cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding common stock or without cause by
                      the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the voting power of all of our then outstanding common stock;

                  

          

        

        

        

        
          
            	

                  	•	
                    provide that all vacancies, including newly created directorships, may, except as otherwise required by law or subject to the rights of holders of preferred stock as designated from time to time, be filled
                      by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, unless the board of directors determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by
                      stockholders;

                  

          

        

      

      
        

        

      

      
        
          
            	

                  	•	
                    classifies our board of directors into three classes;

                  

          

        

      

      
        

        

      

      
        
          
            	

                  	•	
                    require that any action to be taken by our stockholders must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and not be taken by written consent or electronic transmission;

                  

          

        

      

      
        

        

      

      
        
          
            	

                  	•	
                    provide that stockholders seeking to present proposals before a meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors at a meeting of stockholders must provide notice in writing in a
                      timely manner and also specify requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice;

                  

          

        

      

      
        

        

      

      
        
          
            	

                  	•	
                    do not provide for cumulative voting rights (therefore allowing the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock entitled to vote in any election of directors to elect all of the directors standing
                      for election, if they should so choose); and

                  

          

        

      

      
        

        

      

      
        
          
            	

                  	•	
                    provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by the chairman of the board, our Chief Executive Officer or by the board of directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a
                      majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there exists any vacancies).

                  

          

        

      

      
        

        

        The foregoing provisions may make it more difficult for our existing stockholders to replace our board of directors as well as for another party to obtain control of us by replacing our board of directors. Since our
          board of directors has the power to retain and discharge our officers, these provisions could also make it more difficult for existing stockholders or another party to effect a change in management. In addition, the authorization of undesignated
          Preferred Stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue Preferred Stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change our control.

        

        

        These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continued stability in the composition of our board of directors and its policies and to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or
          threatened acquisition of us. These provisions are also designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal and to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, such provisions could have the effect
          of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in our control or management. As a consequence, these provisions also may inhibit fluctuations in the
          market price of our stock that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts.

      

       

      
        

        
          

        

      

      

      
        Choice of Forum

        

        

        Our Bylaws provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, another state
          court located within the State of Delaware or, if no state court located within the State of Delaware has jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and
          exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the
          Company’s stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any director or officer or other employee of the Company arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation (as may be amended from
          time to time) or the Bylaws (as may be amended from time to time); and (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any director or officer or other employee of the Company governed by the internal affairs doctrine. This choice of
          forum provision does not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as amended, or any claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Any person
          or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Company shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of Article XV of the Bylaws.
