III.   Capital
Improvement(s) Intended to Improve Energy Efficiency, as defined in (i)(a) of this subsection III
and to the extent permitted in (ii) of this subsection III, shall also be included in Operating Expenses,
as follows.

 

 (i)  For the purposes of this subsection III only, the following definitions shall apply:

 

		(a)	“Energy
Efficient Capital Improvement(s)” or “EECI” shall
mean any alteration, addition, change, repair or replacement (whether structural or nonstructural) made by Landlord in or to the
Building or the common areas or equipment or systems thereof which, under generally accepted accounting principles consistently
applied, is properly classified as a capital expenditure; and which capital expenditure, as certified in writing by the Independent
Engineers defined in paragraph (d) below, will reduce the Building’s consumption of electricity, oil, natural gas, steam,
water or other utilities. The aggregate costs of any Energy Efficient Capital Improvement shall be deemed to include, without
limitation, architectural, engineering and expediting fees, legal, consulting, inspection
and commissioning fees actually incurred in connection therewith, but shall be deemed to exclude actual or imputed financing
costs in connection therewith; provided, however, the costs of such Energy Efficient Capital Improvement shall be deemed reduced
by the amount of any NYSERDA or similar government
incentives for energy efficiency improvements actually received by Landlord to defray the costs
of such Energy Efficient Capital Improvement, and shall further be reduced by any energy efficiency tax credits or similar
energy efficiency-based tax incentives actually accruing to Landlord as a
result of such Energy Efficient Capital Improvement.

 

    	 	10	 

     

    

  

		(b)	“EECI
Base Year” means the calendar year in which the EECI is completed and placed in service by Landlord.

 

		(c)	“Comparison Year” means each calendar
year subsequent to the EECI Base Year.

 

		(d)	“Independent Engineers” means two
(2) engineers selected by Landlord from a pre-approved list. From time to time, but not more than once during any period of twelve
(12) consecutive months, Landlord and Tenant may each recommend two or more independent professional engineers, licensed
by the State of New York, for inclusion on the pre-approved list. Any such recommendations by Landlord or Tenant shall be subject
to the written approval of the other party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

		(e)	“Simple
Payback Period” shall mean the length of time (expressed in months)
obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate costs of any such Energy Efficient Capital
Improvement by (y) the anticipated annual savings in utility costs (which shall be the average of the determinations by the two
Independent Engineers of such annual savings) includable in Operating Expenses (the “Projected
Annual Savings”). By way of example, if the aggregate costs of such Energy Efficient Capital Improvement is $2,000,000
and the Projected Annual Savings are $500,000 per annum, then the Simple Payback Period for such Energy Efficient Capital Improvement
is forty-eight (48) months. The Projected Annual Savings and the Simple Payback Period shall be certified in writing by the Independent
Engineers.

 

		(ii)	Commencing with the first Comparison Year following
the EECI Base Year and for each Comparison Year thereafter for the duration of the Simple Payback Period, Landlord may include
in Operating Expenses a portion of the aggregate costs of such Energy Efficient Capital Improvement equivalent to eighty percent
(80%) of the Projected Annual Savings, so that the aggregate costs of such Energy Efficient Capital Improvement will be fully
amortized over one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Simple Payback Period. By way of example, if the aggregate costs
of such Energy Efficient Capital Improvement is $2,000,000, the Projected Annual
Savings are $500,000 and the Simple Payback Period for such Energy Efficient Capital
Improvement is forty-eight (48) months, then Landlord may include $400,000 of the aggregate costs of such Energy Efficient Capital
Improvement (i.e., an amount equivalent to 80% of the Projected Annual Savings) in Operating Expenses for five consecutive Comparison
Years (i.e., sixty (60) months or 125% of the Simple Payback Period).

 

    	 	11	 

     

    

  

		(iii)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein or elsewhere in this Article 4 or the Lease, in no event shall any of Landlord’s Work performed under Article 6A,
even if otherwise deemed to be an Energy Efficient Capital Improvement(s), be included in Operating Expenses.

 

Notwithstanding anything contained hereinabove
to the contrary, the cost of any repair required to be performed by Landlord pursuant to Articles 9 and/or 13 of the Lease shall
only be included as Operating Expenses in the applicable calendar year in which Tenant shall have given notice to Landlord (or
Landlord shall have otherwise received actual notice) of the need for such repair. The cost of any repair not performed in such
calendar year shall not be carried forward to the next or any subsequent calendar year; provided, however, if Tenant
shall have given notice to Landlord of a repair during the last quarter of the applicable calendar year and such repair is not
capable of being performed by the end of such quarter, provided that Landlord shall have commenced to perform such repair during
such final quarter and thereafter diligently prosecute such repair to completion, the costs of same shall be included as an Operating
Expense for the calendar year in which the repair is completed.

 

Tenant’s Expense Share of such estimated
increase in Operating Expenses shall be paid in twelve (12) equal monthly installments on the same dates as the annual base rental
is payable. The first installment shall be due on the rent payment date coinciding with or following the rendering of the escalation
statement, provided, however, that if this Lease terminates for any reason before the entire amount
of estimated additional rent has been
paid for the previous or current year, the balance shall become due and payable to
the date of termination and may be based upon a reasonable estimate for the current year.

 

    	 	12	 

     

    

  

If the Estimate
is delivered to Tenant prior to the commencement
of the particular calendar year, then Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord on the last day of each month occurring during such
calendar year, as Additional Rent, one-twelfth (1/12th) of the Amount
stated in the Estimate. If such Estimate
is delivered to Tenant subsequent to the commencement of the particular year, then
(i) Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the last day of each month of such calendar year one-twelfth (1/12th) of the Amount
stated in the immediately preceding calendar year Estimate, (ii) Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the last day of each month during
such calendar year following the forty-fifth (45th) day after the delivery of such Estimate to Tenant, one-twelfth
(1/12th) of the Amount stated in such Estimate, and (iii) promptly following the delivery of such Estimate to Tenant,
Landlord shall refund to Tenant, or Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as appropriate, the difference between (x) the amounts actually
paid to Landlord by Tenant for the months prior to the delivery of the Estimate and (y) the amounts that Tenant would have paid
to Landlord during such months if Landlord had delivered the Estimate prior to the commencement of the particular calendar year.
However, actual payment of any increase shall not start until after January 1, 2015.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
if any new expense, not listed as an expense in the Operating Expense Base Year (the “Additional Operating Expense”),
and which Operating Expense may be listed as an Operating Expense under this Article, is included in the Tenant’s calculation
of the Operating Expense escalation in a calendar year subsequent to the Base Year, such Additional Operating Expense must also
be included in the Operating Expense Base Year and all subsequent years based on the following formula. The Base Year Operating
Expenses will be revised to include the Additional Operating Expense which is calculated by dividing the current year’s
cost by the fraction, the denominator of which shall be the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) for the Base Year
and the numerator of which shall be the CPI for the current year. As used herein,
the term “Consumer Price Index” shall
mean the United States Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics,
Consumer Price Index, All Urban Consumers, All Items, New
York/Northeastern, NJ (1982 - 84 equals 100), or the successor
of that index.

 

    	 	13	 

     

    

 

 

Landlord shall be required to disclose and
notify Tenant of any significant related party transactions the cost of which
are passed on, in whole or in part, as rent. When such transactions occur prices
of same must be in line with normal industry practice in New York City. Failure to notify Tenant of such related party transactions
shall result in a disallowance of such costs that would otherwise be passed along as an Operating Expense. If such related party
transactions occurred and were disclosed but it is found by the Tenant that the cost thereof was excessive, then such charges shall
be disallowed to the extent they exceed normal industry prices in New York City.

 

Within ninety (90) days after the expiration
of the Operating Expense Base Year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a schedule of Operating Expenses for said Operating Expense
Base Year. Within ninety (90) days after the expiration of each calendar year subsequent to the Operating Expense Base Year (including
the calendar year in which this Lease terminates), Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a schedule of Operating Expenses for said calendar
year and a schedule of additional rent resulting from escalations in Operating Expenses. Such schedules of Operating Expenses must
be prepared in a format no less detailed than that shown in Exhibit A hereto.

 

Such schedules of Operating Expenses must
include a statement signed by the chief executive, chief operating, or chief financial officer of Landlord that:

 

(a)          discloses
fully any significant changes in the method of calculation of Operating Expenses from the Operating Expense Base Year to said calendar
year and/or from the previous calendar year to said calendar year, or, in the absence of
significant changes, states that there
have been no significant changes in the method of calculation of Operating Expenses with
respect to the aforementioned periods; and

 

(b)          avers
that there is adequate and accurate documentation in Landlord’s files to support each and every charge included in Operating
Expenses.

 

Landlord must have supporting
documents for each and every Operating Expense or it will be disallowed.

 

    	 	14	 

     

    

 

 

At the time each such schedule of Operating
Expenses is furnished to Tenant, appropriate adjustment shall then be made between the parties, i.e., if Tenant has paid on account
of such calendar year more than Tenant’s Expense Share of the actual amount by which Operating Expenses for such calendar
year exceeded Operating Expenses for the Operating Expense Base Year, Landlord shall refund such overpayment to Tenant at the time
of giving such notice; if Tenant has paid on account of such calendar year less than Tenant’s Expense Share of the amount
by which Operating Expenses for such calendar year exceeded Operating Expenses for the Operating Expense Base Year, then Tenant
shall pay the difference to Landlord within sixty (60) days after receiving the certified Operating Expenses statement, provided,
however, that Tenant shall be required to pay to Landlord only the difference between (a) Tenant’s
Expense Share of the excess of the undisputed actual Operating Expenses for the calendar
year over actual Operating Expenses for the Operating Expense Base Year and (b) the
Estimate; payment of any amounts on account of Operating Expenses other than the aforementioned undisputed
amount shall be withheld by Tenant until Tenant is satisfied that the change in question is valid or until any dispute is otherwise
resolved. Appropriate pro rata adjustment shall be made for the last calendar year in which this Lease terminates.

 

If Landlord fails to timely furnish any
of the foregoing statements, Tenant may, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice, withhold additional rent due and owing to
Landlord for the particular Additional Rent charge(s) for which Landlord failed to furnish a statement, including but not limited
to Real Estate Tax escalations and Operating Expense escalations, until Landlord furnishes the foregoing statements.
Tenant’s liability for additional rent due pursuant to this
Article and/or Landlord’s liability for refunding any overpayment shall survive the expiration of the Term hereof.

 

Pending any audit by the Tenant or Comptroller
of direct operating expenses for any calendar and/or fiscal year, including the Operating Expense Base Year, Tenant shall pay Additional
Rent pursuant to the foregoing provisions hereof for such year
as billed by Landlord; and upon completion of such audit and resolution by
Landlord and Tenant of any matters in contention, appropriate refund or credit shall be allowed Tenant against the next installments
of rent and Additional Rent becoming due hereunder if required thereby.

 

    	 	15	 

     

    

 

 

With respect to any partial calendar year
occurring at the beginning or the expiration of the term hereof or termination of this Lease, additional rent payable by Tenant
for such partial calendar year on account of Operating Expenses shall be equitably adjusted.

 

Tenant shall have the right to copy, examine
and audit any of Landlord’s statements including the Base Year operating statement.

 

Section
4.03  REAL ESTATE TAX ESCALATIONS

 

(a)          The
term “Taxes” and “Real Estate Taxes” as used herein, shall mean the real estate taxes and assessments (including
special assessments) on or with respect to the Building and the Land, assessed, levied, or imposed by any governmental authority
having jurisdiction, including, without limitation, (i) assessments made upon or with respect to any “air” and “development”
rights now or hereinafter appurtenant to or affecting the Land; (ii) any fee, tax or charge imposed by any governmental authority
for any vaults, vault space or other space within or outside the boundaries of the Land; and (iii) any taxes or assessments levied
after the date of this Lease in whole or in part for the public benefits to the Land or the Building, including, without limitation,
Business Improvement District taxes and assessments; without taking into account any discount that Landlord may receive by virtue
of any early payment of Taxes, in ease case, calculated as if the Land and Building were the only asset of Landlord; provided,
that if because of any change in the taxation of real estate, any other tax or assessment
however denominated (including without limitation any franchise, income, profit,
sales, use, occupancy, gross receipts or rental tax) is imposed upon Landlord or the owner of the Land or the Building, or the
occupancy, rents or income therefrom, in substitution
for any of the foregoing taxes, such other tax or assessment shall be deemed
part of Taxes computed as if Landlord’s sole asset were the Land and Building. Excluded from the foregoing enumerations of
Taxes and Real Estate Taxes will be (i) any income, franchise, inheritance, capital stock, excise, excess profits, occupancy or
rent, gift, estate, payroll or stamp taxes or foreign ownership or control taxes or any capital gains tax, deed tax or transfer

of the assessed value of the Building attributable to additions to the Building which increase the square footage of the Building.
The foregoing notwithstanding, Tenant shall be responsible for any increase in Taxes which result from an increase in the assessed
value of the building attributable to Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work and any replacements. As of the date hereof,
to the best of Landlord’s knowledge, the only Taxes affecting the building and/ or Land are the real estate taxes payable
to the City of New York.

perform such Phase of the Tenant’s Work. Tenant shall vacate such floor or partial floor
and remove all personal property, furniture, movable equipment and all other property
of Tenant from such floor or partial floor on or before the relevant Phase Vacate Date. From the date that Tenant actually
vacates each floor or partial floor, Landlord shall Substantially Complete (as defined herein below) the relevant Phase within
the construction time period provided in the Phasing Plan.

 

    	 	33	 

     

    

 

 

(3)         Each
Phase of the Tenant’s Work shall be deemed “Substantially Complete” and Substantial Completion”
shall be deemed to have occurred on the date upon which all of the following shall have occurred with respect to the relevant Phase
(the “Phase Substantial Completion Date”): (i) the relevant Tenant’s Work as indicated in the Final Plans
such Phase shall have been completed to the extent that Tenant may occupy and use the floor or partial floor in that Phase, as
intended by this Lease, except for completion of minor aspects of construction or mechanical adjustment which do not materially
interfere with Tenant’s use of the floor or partial floor in that Phase, as intended by this Lease; and (ii) Landlord shall
have delivered to Tenant all of the Phase Sign-Offs (as hereinafter defined) for such Phase, The Phase Substantial Completion Date
for the final Phase of the Tenant’s Work shall be the Final Substantial Completion Date (as hereinafter defined) of the Tenant’s
Work.

 

(4)         Landlord
shall send Tenant written notice (a “Phase Substantial Completion Notice”) setting forth the date upon which
Landlord reasonably anticipates that the Phase Substantial Completion Date will be achieved for such Phase. Such notice from Landlord
must include all items listed under subsection (7) (a) below. In the event that Landlord
shall have given a Phase Substantial Completion Notice, D&PM shall use reasonable
efforts to certify or deny certification of the Substantial
Completion of that Phase within seven (7) Business Days after D&PM receives written
notice from Landlord of Landlord’s determination that such Phase is Substantially Complete, If D&PM shall determine
that Substantial Completion of such Phase has not been achieved, Tenant shall send
Landlord notice thereof which notice shall include a complete and detailed list of
reasons that the Substantial Completion of such Phase has not been achieved. Thereafter,
upon the correction of the deficiencies in the Lease Work described in such Tenant’s notice, the foregoing procedure for
determining Substantial Completion of such Phase shall be repeated.

 

    	 	34	 

     

    

 

 

(5)         The
final Phase of Work and the entire Tenant’s Work shall be deemed “Substantially Complete” and “Substantial
Completion” of the Tenant’s Work shall occur on the date (the “Final Substantial Completion Date”)
upon which all of the following shall have occurred: (i) all of the Tenant’s Work (including the ACM Work), shall have been
completed to the extent that Tenant may occupy and use the entire Demised Premises, as intended by the Lease, except for completion
of minor aspects of construction or mechanical adjustment which do not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Demised
Premises; and (ii) Landlord shall have delivered to Tenant all of the Final Sign-Offs (as hereinafter defined). Landlord shall,
prior to the Final Substantial Completion Date of the Tenant’s Work, remove all Building Code and Fire Code violations now
pending or which may be placed against the Demised Premises, except those violations caused by Tenant’s breach of the terms
of the Lease, which violations Tenant shall have the responsibility to remove.

 

(6)         Landlord
shall send Tenant written notice (the “Final Substantial Completion Notice”) including the Final Sign-Offs
(as hereinafter defined) setting forth the date upon which Landlord reasonably anticipates that the Final Substantial Completion
Date of the Tenant’s Work will occur. In the event that Landlord shall have given Tenant the Final Substantial Completion
Notice including the Final Sign-Offs, D&PM shall use reasonable efforts to certify
or deny certification of the Substantial Completion
of the Tenant’ s Work within seven (7) Business Days after D&PM
receives written notice from Landlord of Landlord’s determination that Substantial Completion of the Tenant’s
Work has been achieved. If D&PM shall determine that Substantial Completion of
the Tenant’s Work not been achieved, Tenant shall send Landlord notice thereof
which notice shall include a complete and detailed list of reasons Substantial Completion
of the Tenant’s Work has not been achieved. Thereafter, upon the correction
of the deficiencies in the Tenant’s Work described in such Tenant’s notice, the foregoing procedure for determining

its failure within ten (10) Business Days from the date of the Delay Notice, or if such default cannot be completed within such
ten (10) Business Day period and Landlord fails to act diligently, and continuously without interruption to cure such default,
Tenant, in addition to any other remedy it may have, at its option may; (i) as agent of the Landlord commence and/or perform the
Tenant’s Work and deduct the reasonable cost thereof from the rent to become due and payable pursuant to Article 2 hereof
and/or the reimbursable Tenant Work Cost; or (ii) terminate this Lease on ten (10) Business Days written notice to Landlord; provided,
however, if Landlord shall thereafter commence and diligently pursue completion of the Tenant’s Work prior to the expiration

written notice (hereinafter referred
to as the “Completion Delay Notice”)
advising the Landlord of its failure to achieve timely Substantial
Completion of a Phase, or Substantial Completion of the Tenant’s Work. If Landlord fails to achieve Substantial Completion
of a Phase, or Substantial Completion of the Tenant’s Work, within thirty (30) Business Days from the date that Landlord
receives such Completion Delay Notice, or if such Tenant’s Work cannot be completed within said thirty (30) Business Days
and Landlord fails to act diligently, and continuously without interruption to complete the Tenant’s Work within a reasonable
time thereafter, Tenant, in addition to any other remedy it may have, may: (i) perform
the Tenant’s Work and deduct the reasonable cost thereof from the rent to become due and payable pursuant to Article 2 hereof

time frames under this Lease, (y) timely commence the performance of Tenant’s
Work, or (z) timely Substantially Complete the Tenant’s Work due to any of the following: (1) the unreasonable disapproval
by Tenant of bids from contractors more than three (3) times; (2) any written request by Tenant that delays Landlord in proceeding
with any segment or part of the Tenant’s Work; (3) any material changes or requests for material changes by Tenant to the
approved Final Plans; (4) any failure by Tenant to timely respond to submissions and timely complete its review and reasonable

forth herein or to timely deliver any other approvals or other information required to be delivered by Tenant to Landlord or its
agents as provided in this Lease; (5) any delay in the selection of materials to be made by Tenant; (6) any failure by Tenant

Landlord’s costs for heating, air- conditioning, elevator services and labor for on- site Building personnel outside normal
business hours. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor within thirty (30) days after receiving Landlord’s bill and supporting

(d)          Subject
to the provisions of this Subsection (d), within sixty (60) days after the Commencement Date, Landlord, at its sole cost and expense,
shall enter into a separate agreement for the maintenance of the roof and each of the Building Systems (hereinafter defined) of
the Demised Premises (including, but not limited to, the HVAC System and elevators). Such agreement shall remain in effect during
the Term. The maintenance agreement shall provide that the contractor perform all of the preventive maintenance measures set forth
in Exhibit D, attached hereto and made a part hereof. The contractor shall adhere to industry wide standards in performing
its obligation under the maintenance agreement. The maintenance agreement shall further provide that, within ten (10) business
days after inspecting the roof or Building Systems, the contractors shall prepare a written report, at Landlord’s
sole cost and expense, which report (a) summarize the contractor’s findings and recommendations
for maintenance services, and (b) state where maintenance service
has been rendered. The contractor shall submit a copy of the report to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after it is completed.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall have the option, at its sole discretion, to not enter
into a preventive maintenance contract so long as Landlord is maintaining the Building systems
and roof in accordance with standards consistent with the prevailing industry practice in preventive maintenance. If Tenant reasonably
believes that Landlord is not so maintaining the Building Systems or roof, Tenant shall send Landlord a thirty (30) business
day notice specifying which industry standard it believes Landlord is not complying with. If Landlord disagrees with Tenant, Landlord
shall notify Tenant within such thirty (30) business day period and Landlord and Tenant shall meet within five (5) business days
thereafter to resolve their disagreement. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within five (5) business days after such
meeting, either party may submit the dispute to arbitration in accordance with Section 6.18. If the arbitration is favorable to
Tenant and Landlord shall fail to comply within thirty (30) business days
after the arbitration determination (or if the same cannot be complied with during
such thirty (30) business day period and Landlord shall not be diligently and continuously
prosecuting completion of such compliance), Tenant may send Landlord a written directive demanding that Landlord enter such preventative
maintenance contract in accordance with Exhibit D with an outside contractor
within thirty (30) business days thereafter. If Landlord fails to enter into any
such preventative maintenance contract within such additional thirty (30) business day
period, Tenant shall have the right to withhold one and one- half (1 1/2)
times the average annual reasonable cost of such contract allocable to the Demised Premises from any Base Rent due and
owing to Landlord until Landlord complies with Tenant’s directive to Tenant’s reasonable satisfaction, at which time
all amounts so withheld shall be remitted to Landlord within thirty (30) business
days.

from any rent due or that may become due and payable under this Lease; provided that such work shall not affect any electrical,
plumbing, HVAC, mechanical, elevator, life safety or other system serving the Building (collectively, the “Building Systems”)
and shall be of a non-structural nature; or (ii) withhold an amount of rent due and owing Landlord in an amount equal to one and
one- half (1 1/2) times the reasonably estimated cost of curing
such default until Landlord shall have cured such default, at which time Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord all such withheld
rent.

 

(b)          Anything
to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event the repairs to be performed by the Landlord are required to correct a hazardous condition
or to end an emergency which renders the Demised Premises unsuitable for the use set forth herein, Tenant shall give Landlord,
its agent, superintendent or the person designated to receive such notice, immediate notice in writing, personally or by certified
mail, and Landlord, within twenty-four (24) hours of giving said notice, subject to Force Majeure, shall commence the repairs and

and payable under this Lease, or (ii) may withhold all rent due and owing to Landlord until Landlord performs such repairs to the

substantially the same manner as prior to such failure and ceases to use
such part (or all) of the Demised Premises for not less than seven (7)
consecutive business days due to Landlord’s failure to perform such work as set forth in the three preceding paragraphs
hereof (other than by reason of Force Majeure), the rent shall be reduced, on a per diem basis in the proportion in which the
area of the portion of the Demised Premises which is so unusable and not used bears to the total area of the Demised Premises
for each such day subsequent to the aforesaid seven (7) business days that such portion of the Demised Premises remains so
unusable.

subject to adjustment up or down as a result of any rate increases or decreases from the public utility company, or resulting
from a survey conducted as follows: Either party shall have the right to conduct a survey by an independent electrical engineer
or consultant and shall present the results to the other party. If the other party disputes the results of such survey, such party
may retain another independent electric engineer or consultant, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such results, to conduct
a survey and shall present the results to the other party within ten (10) days after receipt. If the party that does not conduct
the first survey fails to conduct a survey and deliver the results within said timeframe, it shall be deemed to have accepted
the first party’s results. If the parties shall be unable to agree on an adjustment after both parties have conducted a
survey, either party may submit the dispute to arbitration in accordance with the procedures outlined in Section 6A.13
(b). All such surveys shall be based on the total square footage of 206,084. Tenant’s electricity payment provided
for in this Article 10 shall be payable as an additional rent over and above the Base Rent and the parties agree that the amount
thereof is not included in the Base Rent.

ALTERATIONS
BY TENANT

 

Section
11.01 (a)    Provided Tenant complies with all Requirements,
Tenant may make all alterations, decorations, installations, additions and improvement in and to the Demised Premises (collectively,
“Tenant’s Alterations”) which are nonstructural and which do not impact on the Building Systems, do not
materially adversely affect the value or utility of the Building, do affect the Certificate of Occupancy for the Building or the
Demised Premises (as it may be amended), and do not affect any part of the Building other than the Demised Premises or require
any alterations to be performed in or made to any portion of the Building or the Land other than the Demised Premises. If Tenant
desires to make a structural alterations or one that impacts the Building Systems, it must submit to Landlord detailed plans thereof
and obtain Landlord’s prior written consent and approval, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed; if Landlord consents, such alterations shall also be considered Tenant’s Alterations for all purposes of this Lease.
Landlord may, as a condition to permitting a structural Tenant Alteration, require that upon termination of this Lease, Tenant
shall, on Landlord’s request, restore the Demised Premises to their condition prior to the making of any “specialty
items” of Tenant Alterations of which notice designating such alteration as a specialty item shall have been given by Landlord
to Tenant upon the request for approval thereof. For purposes of this Lease, “specialty
items” shall mean improvement to the Demised Premises that will not, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, be useable
by subsequent tenants of the Demised Premises but shall not include any of the work performed pursuant to Article 6.

 

    	 	51	 

     

    

 

(b)          All
property of whatever kind or nature in or on the Demised Premises owned, installed or paid for by Tenant, including, but not limited
to, personal property, furniture, equipment, furnishings and trade fixtures (collectively, “Tenant’s Property”)
shall be and remain the property of Tenant. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall have the option
to either remove Tenant’s Property at Tenant’s sole cost and expense on or prior to the Expiration Date, or to surrender
such property (including partition systems and/or furniture located in the Demised Premises) to Landlord at the end of the Term,
in which case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its reasonable out- of – pocket expenses for the removal thereof within
thirty (30) days after demand by Landlord and, in either event, Tenant shall restore (or pay Landlord the cost to restore) any
damage to the Demised Premises caused by such removal to the condition as prior to such removal. Tenant shall exercise its option
by giving written notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days prior to termination or expiration of this Lease. If Tenant shall
fail to give such notice or shall fail to remove such property upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, the property
shall be deemed to be surrendered. Tenant’s obligations under this subsection shall survive the termination or expiration
of this Lease.

 

Section
11.02 (a)    Prior to performing any Tenant’s Alterations,
Tenant shall, at its expense, obtain all permits, approvals and certificates required by any governmental or quasi-governmental
bodies and (upon completion) certificates of final approval thereof and shall delivered
promptly duplicates of all such permits, approvals and certificates to Landlord. Tenant agrees to cause Tenant’s contractors
and subcontractors to carry such workers’ compensation, general liability, personal and property damage insurance as Landlord
may reasonably require. For so long as Tenant is the City of New York when the Tenant is using its own employees to perform any
Alterations, there shall be no such insurance
requirement as set forth in the preceding sentence except for worker’s compensation
insurance in statutory amounts. As permitted by applicable law, Tenant agrees to obtain and deliver to Landlord written and unconditional
waivers of mechanics’ liens upon the Land and the Building, for all work, labor and services performed to the date of such waiver
and all materials to be furnished to date in connection with such work, signed by the general contractor and all subcontractors
involved in such work. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any mechanic’s lien is filed against the Demised Premises, the Land
or the Building, for work claimed to have been done for, or materials furnished to,
Tenant, it shall be discharged by Tenant within thirty (30) days after notice from Landlord to Tenant of the filing (or such shorter
period if required by the terms of any Superior Lease or Mortgage) at Tenant’s expense. In no event shall Tenant be responsible
for mechanic’s liens in connection with the performance of Landlord’s Work or Tenant Work under Article 6 above.

 

    	 	52

demand therefor, as Additional Rent, a fee equal to Landlord’s or Landlord’s agents reasonable and actual out- of-
pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with review of Tenant’s Plans (as hereinafter defined) and in connection
with the review, approval and inspection of any structural Tenant’s Alterations.

 

(c)(1)      Tenant
hereby agrees that, prior to Tenant commencing any structural Tenant’s Alterations, Tenant shall submit to Landlord four
(4) sets of complete working plans, drawing and specifications (collectively, “Tenant’s Plans”), including,
but not limited to, all mechanical, electrical and other utility systems and facilities fur Alterations, prepared by an architect
or engineer licensed as such in the State of New York who maintains at least $2,000,000.00 of professional liability insurance
(“Tenant’s Architect”) (which insurance requirement shall not apply if the architect is an employee of
the City of New York), and shall not commence any structural Tenant’s Alterations without first obtaining Landlord’s
approval of such Tenant Plans, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Within
thirty (30) business days following Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Plans, Landlord shall review or cause the same to
be reviewed and shall thereupon return to Tenant one (1) set of Tenant’s Plans with Landlord’s approval or disapproval
(including, which Tenant’s Alterations, if any, must be removed upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease)
noted thereon, and if same shall be disapproved in any respect, Landlord shall state the reason for such disapproval. If Landlord
disproves Tenant’s Plans in any respect, Tenant shall cause Tenant’s Architect to make such changes to Tenant’s
Plans as Landlord shall require and shall thereupon resubmit the same to Landlord for its approval. Following the approval of Tenant’s
Plans, as aforesaid, the same shall be final and shall not be materially changed by Tenant without the prior approved of
Landlord. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s
Plans shall be conditioned upon Tenant employing licensed persons and firms (where
required by law) and such labor for the performance of Tenant’s Alterations so as not to cause any jurisdictional or other
labor disputes in the Building. Landlord reserves the right to disapprove any plans and specifications in part, to reserve approval
of items shown thereon pending its review and approval of other plans and specifications, and to condition its approval upon Tenant
making revisions to the plans and specifications or supplying additional information.
Any review or approval by Landlord of any plans and/or specifications or any preparation or design of any plans by Landlord’s
architect or engineer (or any preparation or design by Landlord) with respect to any
Tenant’s Alterations shall be without any representation or warranty whatsoever
to Tenant or other person with respect to the compliance thereof
with any Requirements, the adequacy, correctness or efficiency thereof or otherwise.

 

(2)         Unless
Tenant is using New York City employees exclusively for the performance of the subject Tenant’s Alterations, Tenant shall
enter into a construction contract with a construction manager or general contractor
for all Tenant’s Alterations for which the estimated cost of labor and material, on a per project basis, exceed Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00).

 

    	 	53	 

     

    

 

(3)         All
Tenant Alterations shall be performed in accordance with the Requirements. At reasonable times, upon reasonable notice, Tenant
shall permit Landlord, its architect and other representatives of Landlord access to the Demised Premises for the purpose of inspecting
same, verifying conformance of the Tenant’s Alterations with Tenant’s Plans and otherwise reviewing the progress of
Tenant’s Alterations.

 

(4)         Tenant
shall be able to erect sign within and outside the Demised Premises without Landlord’s prior consent.

CONDEMNATION

 

Section
14.01         If the whole of the Demised Premises shall be taken in condemnation,

Section
14.02         If more than thirty five percent (35%) of the Demised Premises,
or fifty percent (50%) of the Demised Premises
if the condemnation is by the City of New York or any other government entity at the City’s request, as the case
may be, shall be so taken in condemnation, then Tenant
may either terminate this Lease as to the remainder of the Demised Premises on thirty (30) days’ written notice to
Landlord or remain in possession of the remaining portion of the Demised Premises
under all of the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease, except that
the rent thereafter shall be apportioned and reduced from the date of each such partial
taking to the amount equal to the product of the dollar amount of rent payable on such date and the number of square feet in the
part remaining. The portion of the proceeds of any award for partial taking allocable to the Demised Premises shall be applied
by Landlord to the repair, restoration or replacement of the remaining Demised Premises, and if there be any surplus, it shall
belong to the Landlord. Said repairs, restoration or replacement of the remaining Demised Premises shall be completed within nine

condition (including any Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work that were already completed in accordance with the terms
of this Lease) as prior to the taking. In the event said repairs, restoration or replacement are not completed within said nine
(9) months period, Tenant, in addition to any other remedy it may have, may either (i) terminate this Lease on thirty (30) days

for the Demised Premises taken, unless the condemnation is by the City of New York or by any other governmental entity at the
City’s request.

DESTRUCTION
BY FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY

 

Section
15.01 (a)    If the whole of the Demised
Premises or a portion thereof is totally destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, or destroyed or damaged to such an extent
that they are unsuitable or untenantable for use for the purpose for which they are leased, then from the date of such damage
or destruction the rent shall be reduced in the proportion which the area of the part of the Demised Premises which is
not usable by Tenant for the purposes permitted herein bears to the total area of the Demised Premises immediately prior to such
damage until such time as Landlord repairs and restores the same to substantially suitable and tenantable condition as
certified by the occupying agencies and D&PM, acting reasonably, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld if the
plans and specifications, in D&PM’s and the occupying agency’s reasonable opinion, specify restoration of the
Demised Premises to the substantially similar condition (including Landlord’s Work and Tenant Work that were already complete
in accordance with the terms of this Lease prior to the casualty) as prior to the casualty. Tenant shall have forty- five (45)
days (during the first thirty (30) days of which period no rent shall be due to Landlord unless Tenant actually moves into the
Demised Premises) to move into the Demised Premises after having been notified that the repairs have been completed by Landlord.
At least seven (7) business days prior to said completion, Landlord shall notify
Tenant of same. In the event that D&PM and the occupying agency do not agree with Landlord that the repairs are complete,
the parties shall submit their dispute to expedited arbitration in accordance with
the procedures set forth in Subsection 6A.13 (b) hereof within such seven (7) business day
period.

(b)          If
the Building shall be so damaged by fire or other casualty that, in Landlord’s opinion,
substantial alteration, demolition or reconstruction of the Building shall
be required, then Landlord, at Landlord’s option, may terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant within ninety (90) days from
the date of such fire or other casualty. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, the Term shall expire upon a date set by
Landlord and Tenant shall vacate and surrender the same in accordance with the provisions of Article 12 hereof. If no such notice
is given, Landlord shall, within forty- five (45) days after receipt of insurance proceeds (which period shall in no event exceed
one hundred and twenty (120) days from the fire or casualty), commence and diligently proceed with continuity to complete the
repairs and restoration of the Building and Demised Premises to the substantially similar condition prior to said fire or casualty
(including Landlord’s Work and Tenant Work that was already completed in accordance with the terms of this Lease). If Landlord
fails to commence said repairs and restoration as above provided, Tenant may terminate this Lease on thirty (30) days’ written
notice to Landlord. If Tenant makes such election, the Term shall expire upon the thirtieth (30th) day after notice
of such election is given by Tenant, and Tenant shall vacate the Demised Premises and surrender the same to Landlord in accordance
with the provisions of Article 12 hereof.

 

Section

described herein, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement prepared by a licensed, independent architect setting forth such
architect’s estimate (the “Estimate”), reasonably determined, as
to the time required to repair such damage (including Landlord Work and Tenant Work that was already completed), exclusive

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Section

repairs, common area electricity, cleaning and painting. Landlord shall provide Tenant with written notice of such transactions
upon submission of invoices for rent or at the end of the calendar year in which the transactions to be billed as rent were performed
by any Affiliates. When such transactions occur, prices of same must be in line with normal industry practice in
New York City. Landlord’s failure to notify Tenant of such
Affiliate transactions shall result in a disallowance of such costs that would otherwise be billed as rent. If such Affiliate
transactions occurred and were disclosed, but it is found by Tenant, in its reasonable judgment, that the costs thereof exceed
normal industry costs in an arm’s length third party transaction in New York City, then such excessive
charges shall be disallowed. For the purposes of this Lease, the term “Affiliates” shall mean a person
or entity which shall (a) Control, (b) be under the Control of, or (c) be under common Control with Landlord. The term “Control”

ASBESTOS

 

Section
26.01      Landlord and Tenant agree that during the Term, if required by applicable
Requirements, Landlord or, to the extent required in this Article, Tenant shall abate (i.e. remove, enclose, encapsulate and/or
replace) and/or monitor and manage any asbestos containing materials (including, but not limited to, any such materials on boilers,
pipes, ducts, breechings, plenum, tanks, spray on or other insulation, and any affected floor tiles, plaster, and ceiling tiles,
collectively “ACM”) in the Demised Premises and portions of the Building through which Tenant has access to
the Demised Premises, upon and subject to the following terms and conditions set forth in this Article. Except as may otherwise
be provided herein, the decision whether the appropriate course of action is abatement or monitoring and management shall be made
by Landlord is its sole discretion.

 

Section 26.02
(a)    Unless already provided to Tenant by Landlord pursuant to Article
24 of the License Agreement, within ten (10) business days following the execution and delivery of this Lease by Tenant, Landlord
shall, at its sole cost and expense, retain an independent third party consultant (which consultant must be approved in advance
by the Department of Citywide Administrative Services (“DCAS”), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed), which consultant shall conduct and prepare a survey of the Demised Premises and portions of the Building through which
Tenant has access for the presence of ACM (the “Survey”) which Survey shall be done in accordance with requirements
and standards set forth in the Federal Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act of 1987 (“AHERA”) and regulations promulgated
thereunder (see 40 CFR 763). The Survey shall set forth findings, as well as recommendations, with respect to the ACM. The first
part of the Survey (“Phase I”) shall be completed within ten (10) business days following Landlord’s retention
of the consultant and shall specifically identify ACM which is deteriorated and the locations of those areas in which it is deteriorated
and shall recommend whether the deteriorated ACM so discovered should be removed, enclosed, repaired and/or encapsulated. A copy
of Phase I of the Survey shall be forwarded to Tenant by Landlord within five (5) business days of Landlord’s receipt of
the same, and copies shall be filed by Landlord with all governmental authorities or agencies whose regulations so require.

 

    	 	72	 

     

    

 

(b)          The
balance of the Survey (“Phase II”), which shall cover ACM other than deteriorated ACM set forth in Phase
I, shall be completed no later than sixty (60) days from the date of the Phase I survey. A copy of Phase I and Phase II  of
the Survey (the “Total Survey”) shall be provided by Landlord to Tenant within five (5) business days of
Landlord’s receipt of Phase II of the Survey and copies of the Total Survey shall be filed by Landlord with all
governmental authorities or agencies where regulations so require.

 

(c)          No
later than thirty (30) days after completion of Phase I of the Survey, Landlord shall, at its own cost and expense, commence or
cause an abatement of any deteriorated ACM in the manner the Survey may specify or recommend, subject to concurrence by DCAS,
and perform any work incidental thereto (the “ACM Work”). Landlord shall, within a time frame to be
mutually agreed to between Landlord and Tenant, diligently and in good faith complete the ACM Work. Landlord’s contractor
performing the ACM Work must be approved by DCAS; DCAS approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Landlord shall
give Tenant at least ten (10) days advance written notice of commencement and phasing of any ACM Work. Performance of the ACM
Work shall be in accordance with and shall comply with all applicable Federal, State, County and Municipal laws, rules, standards,
regulations, requirements and ordinances, as well as policy statements specifically directed by the City of New York (collectively
“Laws and Procedures”) governing ACM Work. The contractor performing
the ACM Work shall file (and pay all fees associated with) all notices or documents, certifications or other communications required
by the City, State and Federal governments as signed by the Landlord as the “Owner”. The contractor shall simultaneously
forward to Tenant/DCAS copies of all notices, certifications or other communications given to Landlord or filed with the proper
agencies or authorities relating to ACM. In addition. Landlord shall contract for on-site air testing which, in accordance with
the rules and regulations of the New York City Asbestos Control Program, must be conducted by a party prescribed by applicable
law. The party performing the on-site air testing is subject to prior written approval by DCAS, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed.

 

    	 	73	 

     

    

 

(d)          As
set forth above, Landlord shall be required to give Tenant not less than ten (10) days advance written notice of the scheduling
of each phase of the ACM Work so that Tenant may relocate its operations and personnel, if necessary, prior to the commencement
thereof. Landlord shall consider Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Demised Premises so as to minimize the negative
impact of the ACM Work on Tenant’s operations in and use of the Building and the Demised Premises. In the event Tenant must
vacate the Demised Premises or any portion thereof because the ACM Work, in the sole determination of Tenant, renders the Demised
Premises unusable by Tenant, annual rent shall abate in the proportion that the portion of the Demised Premises which is vacated
and/or rendered unusable bears to the entire Demised Premises for the period of time involved, provided it exceeds
one full business day. Such abatement of rent shall continue until the Demised Premises or any portion thereof may be used
for the purposes set forth in this Lease, as determined solely by Tenant, and Tenant
certifies same in writing.

 

(e)          If
Landlord fails to comply with the requirements of subparagraphs (a) through (d) above, Tenant shall, in addition to any other remedy
it may have, have the option to effect the ACM Work on its own, as agent for Landlord by hiring any consultants, contractors or
experts Tenant deems necessary to plan, effect and supervise the ACM Work and Tenant shall be entitled to offset all costs
and expenses associated with the ACM
Work against any amounts otherwise due or becoming due to Landlord as rent
and additional rent under the terms of this Lease, which offset shall be in addition
to any applicable abatement or reduction in rent under subparagraph (d) above. Tenant shall not proceed with the ACM Work unless:
(a) written notice shall first be given to Landlord specifying the manner in which Tenant claims such ACM Work has not been properly
completed; and (b) Landlord shall have had thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice within which to complete said work.

 

    	 	74	 

     

    

 

(f)           Following
performance and completion of the ACM Work, Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, restore the Demised Premises to the condition
that, in Tenant’s sole opinion, permits Tenant to use the Demised Premises for the purposes set forth in this Lease. Landlord
shall be solely responsible for all repairs arising out of the performance of the ACM work. Landlord hereby agrees to save, hold
harmless and indemnify Tenant, its employees, guests and invitees against any and all claims for bodily injury or property damage
in connection with the ACM Work and work incidental thereto.

 

(g)          During
the Term, Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, have the ACM monitored in the Demised Premises and the portions of the
Building through which Tenant has access to the Demised Premises or which affect the Demised Premises pursuant to a plan approved
by Tenant (the “Monitor Survey”) by a New York City Department of Environmental Protection certified asbestos
investigator at least once every one hundred eighty (180) days from the Inspection, and Landlord shall immediately provide Tenant
with a copy of the results of each such Monitor Survey. The Monitor Survey shall be in accordance with the principles set forth
in the EPA Document “Managing Asbestos In Place” (the “Green Book”), as it may be subsequently revised
or replaced by a similar text. If any such Monitor Survey should reveal that ACM has deteriorated, Landlord shall so notify Tenant
in writing within five (5) days of the completion of such survey which notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such survey. Landlord
shall within five (5) days from the completion of such Monitor Survey commence and diligently proceed to comply with continuity
with the provisions of this Article with respect to abatement of any deteriorated ACM described in any such Monitor Survey.

 

    	 	75	 

     

    

 

(h)          The
ACM Work must be performed by Landlord in accordance with Laws and Procedures and shall be done to the full satisfaction of Tenant.
Upon completion of the ACM Work, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a certification of completion of same prepared by a New York
City Department of Environmental Protection certified asbestos investigator. At such time, Tenant may re-inspect the premises to
verify the accuracy of Landlord’s certification and advise Landlord if any further work needs to be done.

 

(i)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease or this Article, Landlord shall be required at all times during the term of this
Lease to comply with Laws and Procedures governing ACM and the ACM Work in the Demised Premises and/or Building.

full performance of any of the covenants, conditions or obligations of the other party hereunder shall not be construed

or of any act by the other party requiring the first party’s consent
or approval shall not be construed to waive or render unnecessary the first

(a)          If
Tenant shall default in the payment of any Base Rent or Additional Rent or other charges under this Lease and such default shall
continue for twenty (20) business days in the case of Base Rent or thirty (30) business days in the case of Additional Rent after
Landlord shall have given Tenant notice specifying such failure; or

 

    	 	78	 

     

    

 

(b)          If
Tenant shall, whether by action or inaction, be in default of any of its obligations under this Lease (other than a default in
the payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent or other charge under this Lease) and such default shall continue and not be remedied
within thirty (30) days after Landlord shall have given to Tenant a notice specifying the same, or, in the case of a default which
cannot with due diligence be cured within a period of thirty (30) days and the continuance of which for the period required for
cure will not subject Landlord to any risk of forfeiture, penalties, or criminal liability or of default under any superior lease
or superior mortgage (or permit the lender not to fund the same), if Tenant shall not (i) within said thirty (30) day period acknowledge
the existence of such default and advise Landlord of Tenant’s intention to take all steps necessary to remedy such default,
(ii) duly commence within said thirty (30) day period, and thereafter continuously and diligently prosecute to completion all steps

Tenant shall assign this Lease or sublease all of any portion of the Demised Premises in violation of Article 34 hereof; then in
any of said cases, Landlord may give to Tenant a notice of intention of end the Term of this Lease at the expiration of twenty
(20) business days from the date of the service of such notice of intention, and upon the expiration of said twenty (20) business
days this Lease and the Term and estate hereby granted shall terminate with the same effect as if that day was the day herein definitely
fixed for the expiration of this Lease. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to limit or preclude recovery by Landlord against
Tenant of any sums or damage to which Landlord may be lawfully entitled by reason of Tenant’s default hereunder. Suites or
suits for the recovery of such damages, or any installment 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 this Article 31.

case of Additional Rent, with an additional grace period of up to thirty (30) days each for delays in payment due to the
annual re- registration of this Lease by the Comptroller, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as the case may be, as a late charge and
as Additional Rent, a sum equal to interest at the Default Rate on the amount unpaid, computed from the date such payment was
due to and including the date of payment. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Default Rate” shall mean the

or out of any noise, dust or debris from the performance of work in connection therewith, nor out of the disruption of Tenant’s
business or access to the Demised Premises necessary to perform sidewalk repairs, nor shall any matter arising out of the foregoing
