3

 

compensation, for interruption or curtailment of such “services” when such interruption or curtailment shall be due to accident, alterations or repairs desirable or necessary to be made or to some other cause, not gross negligence on the part of the Landlord. No such interruption or curtailment of any such “services” shall be deemed a constructive eviction. The Landlord shall not be required to furnish, and the Tenant shall not be entitled to receive, any of such “services” during any period wherein the Tenant shall be in default in respect to the payment of rent. Such repairs, alterations, etc., shall be done with reasonable dispatch.

 

8.             PREPARATION OF PREMISES

 

Landlord’s Improvements: (Per Exhibit “A”).

 

9.             MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS

 

Tenant (a) except as specifically set forth in section 5, shall, at the Tenant’s own expense, take good care of the Premises, and the pipes, fixtures, appliances, equipment and appurtenances belonging thereto, and keep the same in good order and repairs (if any) shall be in quality and class at least equal to the original work; on default of Tenant to do such work, the Landlord may do it for Tenant’s account, and Tenant shall have no claim for inconvenience on account thereof; (b) shall not cut or drill or otherwise deface or injure the building; (c) shall not use or permit the use of the roof except as shall be expressly permitted in writing by Landlord, including, without limitation, for the installation thereon of any antenna, airlines, masts, or other radio or television equipment; (d) shall not, without the Landlord’s prior written consent first obtained in each instance, permit any matter or thing to be extended or projected from the window sash, window sill, cornice or fire escape of the Premises; (e) shall, within ten (10) days after the Landlord’s demand thereof, pay to Landlord as additional rent hereunder, an amount equal to the increase, if any, in the amount of the fire insurance premium applicable to the building for and during the demised term resulting from the Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises in violation of the use permitted in this Lease, or from the Tenant’s failure to comply with any requirements of law or the recommendation of any insurance carrier; (f) shall not, without the Landlord’s prior written consent first obtained in each instance, make alteration or addition to the electric wiring, equipment, or appliances, including, without limitation, any heating, air conditioning system, water systems, or gas pipe systems, or tap any mains or pipes to supply water for refrigeration or air conditioning apparatus; (g) shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent first obtained in each instance, make any alterations, decorations or improvements in or to the Premises, provided however, Landlord’s consent to non-structural interior alterations or decorations shall not be unreasonably withheld; (h) shall comply with all reasonable and uniform regulations and orders

 

4

 

of Landlord designated to promote the safety or good order of the building; and (i) shall promptly discharge by filing the necessary bond, or otherwise, any mechanic’s lien or other lien filed against the Premises because of any work or material done or furnished to the Tenant. All alterations, additions or improvements made to the Premises by either party, including railings, galleries, decorations, paneling and similar items, unless Landlord shall otherwise elect in writing, shall become the property of Landlord and be surrendered as part of the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

 

10.          COVENANT AGAINST ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

 

(A)          Without the previous written consent of the Landlord, neither the Tenant, nor the Tenant’s legal representatives or successors in interest by operation of law or otherwise, shall assign or mortgage this Lease, or sublet the whole or any part of the Premises or any part thereof to be used by others. Any consent by Landlord to any act of assignment or subletting shall be held to apply only to the specific transaction thereby authorized. Such consent shall not be construed as a waiver of the duty of Tenant, or the legal representatives or assigns of tenant, to obtain from the legal representatives or assigns of Tenant, to obtain from Landlord consent to any other or subsequent assignment or subletting, or as modifying or limiting the rights of Landlord under the foregoing covenant by Tenant not to assign or sublet without such consent. Any violation of any provision of this Lease, whether by act or omission, by any assignee, subtenant, or undertenant, or occupant shall be deemed a violation of such provision by Tenant, it being the intention and meaning of the parties hereto that Tenant shall assume and be liable to Landlord for any and all acts and omissions of any and all assignees, sub-tenants and under- tenants and occupants. If this Lease be assigned, the Landlord may, and is hereby empowered to collect rent from the assignee if the Premises or any part thereof be underlet or occupied by any person or Corporation other than Tenant. Landlord, in the event of Tenant’s default may, and is hereby empowered to, collect rent from the undertenant or occupant; in either of such events, Landlord may apply the net amount received by it to the rent herein reserved, and no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the covenant herein against assignment and underletting, or the acceptance of the assignee, undertenant, or a release of the Tenant from the further performance of the covenants herein contained on the part of the Tenant.

 

(B)          Notwithstanding the provision of paragraph 10(A) hereof, the Tenant may, without the Landlord’s consent, assign this Lease to any parent, affiliated or subsidiary corporation, provided such assignment does not relieve the original Tenant of any liability hereunder.

 

5

 

11.          RIGHT OF ENTRY

 

Tenant, during the term hereof, shall permit inspection of the demised Premises during reasonable business hours by Landlord’s agents or representatives, and by or on behalf of prospective purchasers; and shall permit access by the Landlord, or Landlord’s agents or representatives during reasonable hours for the purpose of making repairs, renovations or decorations.

 

12.          COVENANT TO SURRENDER; REMOVAL OF PERSONAL PROPERTY

 

On the last day of the Lease Term or on the sooner termination thereof, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly leave, surrender and yield up unto the Landlord all and singular the Premises broom-clean and in good order and repair, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire, condemnation or other casualty as is insurable under present or future standard forms of fire and extended coverage insurance policies, excepted, together with all alterations, additions and improvements which may have been made upon the Premises with Landlord’s permission except movable furniture or movable trade fixtures put in at the expenses of Tenant. If the last day of the Lease Term falls on Sunday, this Lease shall expire on the business day immediately preceding it. Tenant, on or before said date, shall remove all its property from the Premises, and all property not so removed shall be deemed abandoned by Tenant. If said Premises be not surrendered at the end of the term, Tenant shall make good to Landlord all damage which Landlord shall suffer by reason thereof, and shall indemnify Landlord against all claims made by any succeeding tenant against Landlord in delivering possession of the Premises to such succeeding tenant, so far as such delay is occasioned by failure of Tenant to surrender the Premises.

 

13.          FIRE OR CASUALTY DAMAGE

 

In case of damage to the Premises or the building of which the Premises are a part by fire, or other casualty as is insurable under present or future standard forms of fire and extended coverage insurance policies, Landlord, unless it shall otherwise elect as hereinafter provided, shall repair the same with reasonable dispatch after written notice of damage. If the Premises, or any part thereof, are damaged by fire, enemy action, or other casualty to such an extent as to be rendered untenantable, but are, nevertheless, repaired by Landlord, then the rent shall be abated to an extent corresponding with the time during which and the extent to which said Premises may have been untenantable. If such repairs, however, are delayed because of Tenant’s failure to adjust Tenant’s own insurance claim, no reduction shall be made beyond a reasonable time allowed for such adjustment. If the Landlord in its exclusive discretion, shall decide, within a reasonable time after the occurrence of any such fire, enemy action, or other casualty, to demolish, rebuild or reconstruct the building, then, upon at least thirty (30) days written notice given by Landlord to Tenant, this lease shall terminate on a date to be specified in such notice as

 

6

 

if that date had been originally fixed as the expiration date of the Lease Term, and the rent shall be adjusted as of the time of the occurrence of any such fire, enemy action, or other casualty. Tenant shall give immediate notice to Landlord in case of fire or other casualty or in the event of accidents to or defect in any fixtures or equipment of the building. Landlord, for itself and its insurers, hereby releases Tenant with respect to any liability (including that deriving from the fault or neglect of Tenant, assignees, sub-tenants, its agents, employees or other persons under its or their direction or control) which Tenant might otherwise have for any damage to the building or the Premises by fire, explosion, or any other perils covered by Landlord’s insurance, occurring during the Lease Term. Whenever Landlord elects to insure the Premises or the building against fire or other casualty with an insurance company selected by Landlord, Landlord shall cause all policies evidencing such insurance to include a provision permitting such release of liability if such a provision is obtainable from such insurer at no additional expense to Landlord. If such insurer will not include such a provision in said policy, or if the inclusion of such provision in such policy would involve an additional expense for Landlord, Landlord shall so advise Tenant within a reasonable time. Where such a provision is obtainable from such insurer and Tenant notifies Landlord in writing within a reasonable time thereafter the Tenant desires Landlord to cause such a provision to be included in such policy at the expense of Tenant, Landlord shall cause such a provision to be included, and Tenant agrees to pay promptly all expenses incurred by Landlord as a result of such inclusion.

 

In case Landlord shall fail to complete such repairs within ninety (90) days from the date of such damage, the Tenant may at any time after such ninety (90) day period give Landlord thirty (30) days notice in writing of termination of this lease, then at the expiration of such thirty day period, this lease shall terminate as completely as if that were the date fixed for expiration of the term of this lease unless, Landlord shall have substantially completed repairs prior to the expiration of such thirty day period.

 

14.          CONDEMNATION

 

If the whole or a substantial part of the Premises shall be taken for any public or quasi-public use, under any statute or by right of eminent domain or private purchase in lieu thereof by a public body vested with the power of eminent domain, then, when possession shall be taken thereunder of the Premises, or any part thereof, the term herein demised and all rights of Tenant hereunder shall immediately cease and terminate, and the rent shall be adjusted as of the time of such termination.

15.          RELEASE FROM LIABILITY IF UNABLE TO PERFORM

 

In case Landlord is prevented from making any repairs, decorations or installing any fixtures or articles of equipment, or performing any other covenant or duty, whether expressed herein or implied, to be performed on Landlord’s part, due to the Landlord’s inability to obtain, or difficulty in obtaining, labor or materials necessary thereof, or due to any governmental rules or regulations relating to the priority of national defense requirements or due to any other cause beyond Landlord’s control, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for damages resulting therefrom; nor shall the same give rise to a claim in the Tenant’s favor that such failure constitutes actual or constructive, total or partial eviction from the Premises.

 

16.          INSURANCE

 

(A)          Tenant covenants and agrees, at its sole cost and expense, throughout the duration of this Lease, to obtain, keep and maintain in full force and effect for the mutual benefit of Landlord and Tenant, comprehensive liability insurance claims for damage to persons or property arising out of the use and occupancy of the Premises or any part or parts in limits not less than One Million Dollars, ($1,000,000.00) for a combined single limit bodily injury, property damage policy. Such public liability policy or policies shall name Landlord as an additional insured. Tenant will supply Landlord with certificates of insurance evidencing the term of this Lease prior to taking occupancy.

 

(B)          All insurance provided for in this paragraph 16 may be in the form of a general coverage, floater policy or so called blanket policies which may be furnished by Tenant, or the parent corporation of Tenant or any related entity.

 

(C)          Landlord shall keep the building containing the Premises insured against loss or damage by fire with extended coverage endorsement in an amount not less than 80% of the full insurable value thereof. Tenant agrees to pay its proportionate share of the cost of said insurance during the term hereof and that amount shall be paid as an additional rent. Said proportionate share shall be determined by multiplying the cost of said insurance by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the square foot area of the Premises and the denominator the total rentable square foot area of the building of which the Premises are a part.

 

17.          INDEMNITY

 

Except as otherwise provided in Section 13 hereof, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against any expense, loss or liability paid, suffered or incurred as the result of any breach by Tenant, Tenant’s agents, servants, employees, contractors, invitees or licensees, of any covenant or condition of this Lease, or the carelessness, negligence or improper conduct of Tenant, Tenant’s agents, servants, employees, contractors or invitees. Tenant’s liability under this Lease extends to the

 

8

 

acts and omissions of any sub-tenant, and any agent, servant, employee, invitee or licensee of any such sub-tenant.

 

18.          WAIVER OF SUBROGATION

 

Tenant hereby releases Landlord from any and all liability for any loss or damage caused by fire, or other casualty to the property of Tenant on the Premises or the contents of the Premises even if such fire or other causality shall be brought about by the fault or negligence of Landlord or its agents.

 

19.          MECHANIC’S LIEN

 

Tenant shall not do or suffer anything to be done whereby the Premises may be encumbered by any mechanic’s lien and shall, whenever and as often as any mechanic’s lien is filed against the Premises for labor or material furnished or to be furnished to Tenant, discharge the same of record within ten (10) days after the date of filing. Notice is hereby given that Landlord shall not be liable for any labor or materials furnished or to be furnished to Tenant upon credit, and that no mechanic’s or other lien for any such labor or materials shall attach to or affect the reversionary or other estate or interest of Landlord in and to the Premises herein demised.

 

20.          DEFAULT CLAUSE

 

Each of the following shall be deemed a default by Tenant and a breach of this Lease:

 

(A)          A default in the payment of the rent herein reserved, or any part thereof, for a period of ten (10) days after written notice delivered to the Tenant.

 

(B)          Default in the performance of any other covenant or condition of this Lease on the part of Tenant to be performed for a period of thirty (30) days after service of notice thereof by Landlord on Tenant, provided however, that if the nature of Tenant’s default is such that it cannot be cured solely by payment of money and that more than thirty (30) days may be reasonably required for such cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall commence such cure within such thirty (30) day period and shall thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion.

 

21.          REMEDIES IN EVENT OF DEFAULT; NOTICE OF TERMINATION

 

In the event of any such default of Tenant, and at any time thereafter, Landlord may serve a written notice upon Tenant that Landlord elects to terminate this Lease upon a specified date not less than five (5) days after the date of the serving of such notice, and this Lease shall then expire on the date so specified as if that date had been originally fixed as the expiration date of the term herein granted. No defaults shall be deemed waived unless in writing and signed by Landlord.

 

9

 

22.          RE-ENTRY

 

In the event this Lease shall be terminated as hereinbefore provided, or by summary proceedings or otherwise, or in the event that the Premises shall be abandoned by Tenant, during the Lease Term, Landlord, or its agents, servants or employees, may, immediately or any time thereafter, re-enter and resume possession of said Premises or such part thereof, and remove all persons and property therefrom, either by summary dispossess proceedings or by a suitable action or proceedings at law, or by force or otherwise. No re-entry by Landlord shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of this Lease.

 

23.          RELETTING

 

In the event this Lease shall be terminated as hereinbefore provided, or by summary proceedings or otherwise, or if the Premises shall be abandoned by Tenant, or shall become vacant during the Term hereof, Landlord may, in its own name, but as agent for Tenant if the Lease be not terminated, or if the Lease is terminated, in its own behalf, relet the whole or any portion of said Premises, for any period equal to or greater or less than the remainder of the original Lease Term, for any sum which it may deem reasonable, to any tenant which it may deem suitable and satisfactory, and for any use and purpose which it may deem appropriate. In no event, however, shall Landlord be under any obligation to relet the Premises for any purpose, other than that specified in this Lease which the Landlord may regard as injurious to the Premises or to any tenant which Landlord, in the exercise of reasonable discretion, shall deem to be objectionable.

 

24.          MEASURE OF DAMAGES IN EVENT OF DEFAULT

 

In the event that this Lease be terminated by summary proceeding, or otherwise, or if the Premises are abandoned, and whether or not the Premises be relet, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, the following:

 

(A)          An amount equal to all expenses, if any, including reasonable counsel fees incurred by the Landlord in recovering possession of the Premises, and all reasonable costs and charges for the care of said Premises while vacant, not otherwise the obligation of Landlord, which damages shall be due and payable by Tenant to Landlord at such time or times as such expenses are incurred by Landlord; and

 

(B)          An amount equal to the amount of all rent and additional rent reserved under this Lease, less the net rent, if any, collected by Landlord on reletting the Premises, which shall be immediately due and payable by Tenant to Landlord and Landlord shall be entitled thereupon to recover same from Tenant on the several days on which the rent and additional rent reserved in this Lease would have become due and payable; that is to say, upon each of such days Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of deficiency then existing. Such net rent collected on reletting by Landlord shall be computed by deducting from the gross rents collected all reasonable

 

10

 

expenses incurred by the Landlord in connection with the reletting, but shall not include the cost of performing any covenant contained in paragraph 24.

 

Without any previous notice or demand, separate actions may be maintained by Landlord against Tenant from time to time to recover any damages, which, at the commencement of any such action, have then or theretofore become due and payable to Landlord under paragraph 24, without waiting until the end of the original Lease Term.

 

25.          COVENANTS INDEPENDENT

 

Each and every covenant contained in this Lease shall be deemed separate and independent, and not dependent on other provisions of this Lease or the use and occupation of the Premises by Tenant, and the performance of any such covenant shall not be considered to be rent or other payment for the use of said Premises.

 

26.          LANDLORD MAY CURE DEFAULTS

 

In the event of any breach hereunder by Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to cure such breach for the account and at the expense of Tenant. However, Landlord shall give Tenant prior written notice of its intention to exercise its said right hereunder and a reasonable opportunity to cure any such breach. If Landlord at any time, by reason of such breach, is compelled to pay, or elects to pay, any sum of money or do any act which will require the payment of any sum of money, or is compelled to incur any expense, including reasonable attorney’s fees, in instituting, prosecuting and/or defending any action or proceeding to enforce Landlord’s rights hereunder, the sum or sums so paid by Landlord, with all interest, and costs, shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder and shall be due from Tenant to Landlord on the first day of the month following the incurring of such respective expenses.

 

27.          REAL ESTATE TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS

 

(A)          Tenant shall in all instances, pay as additional rent a portion of all real estate taxes including extraordinary and/or special assessments (and all costs and fees incurred by Landlord in contesting the fees) which may be levied or assessed by apparent lawful taxing authority against the land, building and all other improvements of which the Premises are a part. Such portion shall be determined as follows: the Tenant shall pay that portion of such taxes as shall be equal to the product obtained by multiplying said taxes by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the square foot area of the Premises and the denominator the total rentable square feet of the building of which the Premises are a part. Statement of such additional rent, including all taxes levied or assessed in each calendar year, shall be rendered to Tenant and shall be paid on or before the end of the month in which the statement is rendered. A tax bill submitted to Tenant

 

11

 

shall be conclusive evidence of the amount of taxes assessed or levied. Such additional rent attributable to the year in which the term of this lease terminates shall be apportioned from the date of the commencement of the term of this lease to the end of the calendar year in which the lease commences or from the beginning of the calendar year in which this lease terminates to the date of the termination of the term of this Lease as the case may be and shall be paid within five (5) days after demand therefore. Each tax or assessment levied during the calendar years in which this lease commences and terminates shall be included in the computation of Tenant’s portion regardless of the date of the commencement or termination of the term of this lease.

 

(B)          Tenant shall pay as additional rent any and all taxes, assessments, license fees and public charges levied, assessed or imposed and which become payable during the lease term upon leasehold improvements, fixtures, furniture, appliances and personal property installed or located in or on the Premises. If any such taxes, assessments, license fees, or public charges are not levied, assessed or imposed separately upon such property, a fair and equitable allocation of such taxes, assessments, license fees or public charges shall be made between such property included in the same tax assessment or other bill.

 

28.          LATE CHARGES

 

A charge equivalent to five percent (5%) of the payment amount will be due for any rent received after the 7th day of the month. Notwithstanding the above charges, this Lease shall be considered in default if payment is not received when due.

 

29.          COMMON AREAS

 

(A)            Common areas and facilities furnished by Landlord shall include parking area, access driveways, and such other areas, facilities, and exterior utilities as may be furnished by Landlord and designated for the benefit of the Tenants, all of which areas and facilities shall be subject to exclusive control and management by Landlord. Landlord shall have the right from time to time to establish, modify and enforce all reasonable rules and regulations in respect to such areas, facilities and exterior utilities and use thereof.

 

(B)            Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent a portion (as determined pursuant to Paragraph (C) hereof) of each year’s cost of the snow plowing for the parking areas and sidewalks, landscaping, lawn maintenance, driveway maintenance and exterior utilities.

 

(C)            At the termination of each maintenance year for snow plowing, landscaping, lawn maintenance, driveway maintenance and exterior utilities, the Landlord shall submit to Tenant a statement of the operating cost for such services. Tenant shall pay as additional rent, Tenant’s portion of annual operation cost of the common area an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the estimate by a fraction, the numerator of which is the square foot area of the

 

12

 

Premises demised by this Lease and the denominator of which is the square foot area of the total leasable area of the building of which the Premises are a part.

 

30.          HOLDING OVER

In order to more effectively secure to the Landlord the rent and other terms herein provided, it is agreed as a further condition of this Lease that the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or assignment for the benefit of creditors by or against the Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Lease, and thereupon ipso facto and without entry or any other action by the Landlord this Lease shall become and be terminated and notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease the damages for such breach in an amount equal to the amount of the rent reserved in this Lease for the residue to the term hereof, less the fair rental value of the Premises for the residue of said term plus all costs of rerenting.

35.          REMEDIES CUMULATIVE

 

The rights given to Landlord herein are in addition to any rights that may be given to Landlord by any statute or otherwise.

 

36.          WAIVER OF RIGHT OF REDEMPTION

 

Tenant, for itself and for all persons claiming through or under it, hereby expressly waives any and all rights which are or may be conferred upon Tenant by a present or future law to redeem said Premises, or to any new trial in any action of ejectment under any provision of law, after re-entry thereupon by Landlord. If Landlord shall acquire possession of said Premises by summary proceedings, or in any other lawful manner without judicial proceedings, it shall be deemed a re-entry within the meaning of that word as used in this Lease.

 

37.          SECURITY DEPOSIT

 

Tenant has deposited with Landlord the sum of $6,043.33  as security for the faithful performance and observance by Tenant of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease; it is agreed that in the event Tenant defaults in respect of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the payment of rent and additional rent, Landlord may at its option use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the security so deposited to the extent required for the payment of any rent and additional rent or any sum as to which Tenant is in default or for any sum which Landlord may expend or may be required to expend by reason of Tenant’s default in respect of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, including but not limited to, any damages or deficiency in the reletting of the Premises whether such damages or deficiency accrued before or after summary proceedings or other re-entry by Landlord. In the event that Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Lease, the security shall be returned, without interest, to Tenant after the date fixed as the end of the Lease and within a reasonable time after delivery of entire possession of the demised Premises to Landlord. In the event of a sale of the land and building or leasing of the buildings, of which the demised Premises form a part,

 

14

 

Landlord shall have the right to transfer the security to the vendee or lessee, and Landlord shall thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability for the return of such security; and Tenant agrees to look to the new Landlord solely for the return of said security; and it is agreed that the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment made of the security to a new Landlord. Tenant further covenants that it will not assign or encumber or attempt to assign or encumber the monies deposited herein as security and that neither Landlord nor its successors or assigns shall be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance.

 

38.          SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGES

 

This lease is and shall be subject and subordinate to any mortgage or mortgages and to any extensions or modifications thereof now in force or which shall at any time be placed upon the Premises or any part thereof or the building of which the Premises is a part of. The Tenant agrees that it will, upon demand, execute and deliver such instruments as necessary to effect more fully such subordination of this lease to the lien of any such mortgage or mortgages as shall be desired by any mortgagee or proposed mortgagee and in the event of the failure of the lessee to execute such instrument, the Lessee hereby nominates and appoints the Lessor attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing any such instrument of subordination.

 

39.          COVENANT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT

 

If and so long as Tenant pays the rent and additional rent reserved by this Lease, and performs and observes all the covenants and provisions hereof, Tenant shall quietly enjoy the Premises, subject, however, to the terms of this Lease.

 

40.          ENTIRE AGREEMENT

 

This instrument contains all the agreements and conditions made between the parties hereto and supersedes all prior or other leases, agreements and representations in connection with the Premises and may not be modified orally or in any other manner than by an agreement in writing, signed by all the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest. The receipt of rent by Landlord, with knowledge of any breach of this Lease by Tenant or of any default on the part of Tenant in this observance or performance of any of the conditions or covenants of this Lease shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any provision of this Lease. If the Tenant makes any payment of any amount less than that due hereunder, Landlord, without notice, may accept the same as a payment on account; Landlord shall not be bound by any notation on any check involving such payment or any statement in any accompanying letter. No failure on the part of Landlord to enforce any covenant herein contained nor any waiver of any right thereunder by Landlord, unless in writing, shall discharge or invalidate such covenant or provision or affect that

 

15

 

right of Landlord to enforce the same in the event of any subsequent breach or default. The receipt by Landlord of rent or any other sum of money or any other consideration hereunder paid by Tenant after the termination, in any matter of the term herein demised shall not reinstate, continue, or extend the term herein demised, or destroy, or in any manner impair the efficiency of any such notice of termination as may have been give hereunder by Landlord or Tenant prior to the receipt of any such sum of money or other consideration, unless so agreed to in writing and signed by Landlord. Neither acceptance of the keys nor any other act or thing done by Landlord or any agent or employee during the term herein demised shall be deemed to be an acceptance of a surrender of said Premises, excepting only an agreement in writing signed by Landlord accepting or agreeing to accept such a surrender.

 

41.          EFFECT OF CONVEYANCE

 

The term “Landlord” as used in this Lease, means only the owner for the time being of the Premises so that, in the event of any sale of the Premises or in the event of a lease by Landlord of the Premises subject to this Lease or assignment by Landlord of this Lease, Landlord shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all covenants and obligations of the Landlord hereunder arising subsequent to any such transfer and provided any such transferee assumes in writing the obligations of Landlord hereunder and a copy of such assumption is delivered to Tenant, and it shall be deemed and construed without further agreement between the parties or between the parties and the purchaser at any such sale or the new lessee of the Premises or assignee of this Lease that such purchaser or said new lessee, or said assignee has assumed and agreed to carry out any and all covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder. If any landlord named herein be acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, the termination, in whole or in part, of such capacity shall be deemed a transfer within the meaning of this paragraph.

 

42.          TOWN REGULATIONS AND OBLIGATIONS

 

Tenant shall have full responsibility of complying with all Town regulations including but not limited to, use as described by zoning ordinances etc.

 

43.          CONSTRUCTION OF LEASE

 

Words of any gender used in the Lease shall be held to include any other gender, and words in the singular number shall be held to include the plural, when the sense requires. Consents required of Landlord hereunder shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 3 of the Lease is hereby amended to provide that all Base Rent and additional rent shall be payable to Landlord at the following address: Hub Properties Trust, c/o Reit Management & Research LLC, P.O. Box 845008, Boston, MA 02284-5008, or such other address as Landlord shall designate in writing from time to time.

5.             Section 3 of the Lease is hereby amended by deleting the third grammatical paragraph thereof (i.e. the paragraph after the original rent schedule beginning with the word “At”) and substituting the following therefor:

 

Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord may, at its option: (i) calculate the amount of additional rent due during the Lease Term pursuant to Sections 16, 27 and 29 on a calendar year basis or on the basis of any other twelve-month fiscal period selected by Landlord (each such twelve-

 

 

month accounting period used by Landlord to calculate additional rent being a “Computation Year”), and (ii) give Tenant an estimate of the amount of such additional rent due for each Computation Year (which estimate Landlord may subsequently change), and require Tenant to pay to Landlord each month with Tenant’s monthly installment of Base Rent, on account thereof, one-twelfth (1/12) of such most recent estimate.

 

After the close of each Computation Year, Landlord shall reconcile the additional rent payments received from Tenant during such Computation Year against the amount of additional rent due for such Computation Year and give Tenant a statement thereof. If Landlord’s statement shows that the additional rent due from Tenant for such Computation Year exceeds the sum of Tenant’s estimated payments on account thereof, then Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after receiving Landlord’s statement, pay such deficiency to Landlord. If there has been an overpayment by Tenant, such overpayment shall be credited against the estimated payments of additional rent next coming due until fully credited, or if the Lease Term has ended and there are no moneys due from Tenant to Landlord, such overpayment shall be paid to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the delivery of Landlord’s statement.

 

6.           Section 47 of the Lease is hereby amended to provide that notices to Landlord shall be sent to the following address (or to such other address or addresses as may from time to time hereafter be designated by Landlord by notice to Tenant):

7.           Tenant currently occupies the Premises and agrees that Landlord shall have no obligation to make any alterations or improvements to the Premises in connection with this Amendment.

 

8.           Tenant agrees that it shall not assert nor seek to enforce any claim for breach of this Lease against any of Landlord’s assets other than Landlord’s interest in the Property, and Tenant agrees to look solely to such interest for the satisfaction of any liability or claim against Landlord under this Lease, it being specifically agreed that in no event whatsoever shall Landlord ever be personally liable for any such liability. In addition, Landlord hereby notifies Tenant that the Declaration of Trust of Hub Properties Trust provides, and Tenant agrees, that no

9.             Tenant warrants and represents that it has dealt with no broker in connection with the consummation of this Lease other than Ardent Commercial Real Estate Advisors, whose commission shall be paid by Landlord pursuant to a separate agreement between Landlord and Ardent Commercial Real Estate Advisors, and in the event of any brokerage claims or liens against Landlord or the Property by any party other than Ardent Commercial Real Estate Advisors predicated upon or arising out of prior dealings with Tenant, Tenant agrees to defend the same and indemnify and hold Landlord harmless against any such claim, and to discharge any such lien.

LUCID, INC.

EMPLOYEE

INVENTION, COPYRIGHT, PROPRIETARY

INFORMATION AND CONFLICTS OF INTERESTS

AGREEMENT

 

In consideration of my employment at Lucid, Inc. (“Lucid”) or of the continuation of my employment and of any remuneration paid to me in connection with such employment, I agree as follows.

 

1.               During or subsequent to the period of my employment I will communicate to Lucid promptly and fully any and all inventions, discoveries, works of authorship (including computer programs and other software), mark works, or improvements conceived or reduced to practice by me during the period of my employment, which are along the lines of the business, work or research of Lucid or which result from or are suggested by such work or research. I will and hereby do assign to Lucid and/or its nominees all my right, title and interest in such inventions, discoveries or improvements, whether or not patented, and all my right, title and interest in any patents, patent applications or copyright registrations based thereon. I will assist Lucid and/or its nominees (without charge but at no expense to me) at any reasonable time and in every reasonable way to obtain and maintain for the benefit of Lucid and/or its nominees, patents and copyright works or mark work registrations for all such inventions, discoveries or improvements anywhere in the world.

 

2.               I will keep and maintain adequate and current written records of any and all inventions, improvements and discoveries at all stages of their development, in the form of notebooks, sketches, drawings, and reports which records shall be and remain the property of and available to Lucid. Upon termination of my employment I will surrender to Lucid any and all such records.

 

3.               I will keep confidential and will not at any time disclose or use, except internally for Lucid’s benefit, either during or subsequent to the period of my employment, any information,knowledge or data which I receive or myself develop during my employment, which is considered proprietary by Lucid or which relates to the trade secrets of Lucid, as contained in formulas, business plans and methods, manufacturing purposes, computer programs, the design or operation of machines used in manufacturing, formulas, compositions, inventions, discoveries, improvements or otherwise. I recognize that, except as disclosed in issued patents and published articles and published reports, all information, knowledge and data concerning new products, manufacturing processes, formulations, materials, tooling, product designs, tolerances or dimensions for products, and testing methods and results and other data not readily apparent from such products themselves are proprietary to Lucid, which intends to maintain such information, knowledge and data secret and confidential as long as possible. Upon termination of my employment I will surrender to Lucid any and all documents which contain any Lucid proprietary or trade secret information, knowledge or data.

 

4.               I will not knowingly disclose to Lucid or induce it to use any proprietary information or trade secrets of others.

 

5.               I have no agreements or obligations to others in conflict with the foregoing nor do I know or have an interest in any patent, patent application or invention except the following:

(Attach additional schedule if insufficient space is provided).

 

6.               During the period of my employment, I will not independently engage in the same or similar line of business, work or research as that carried on by Lucid, or directly or indirectly serve, advise or be employed by any individual, firm or corporation engaged in the same or similar line of business, work or research as that carried on by Lucid. Should any matter or dealing in which I am now, or hereafter am, about to become involved on my own behalf, appear to present a conflict with the foregoing obligation, I will promptly disclose the facts to the President of Lucid or in his absence to another officer of Lucid so that a determination can be made as to whether a conflict of interest does exist, and I will take whatever action is required by the President of Lucid (or other officer of Lucid, in his absence) to resolve any conflict found to exist.

 

 

7.               This agreement shall be binding upon my heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors or assigns of Lucid.

 

8.               This agreement supersedes all previous agreements relating to the subject matter thereof and shall not be changed, except in writing and signed by an officer of Lucid.
