MANUFACTURING AGREEMENT

     This
Agreement, made this 26 day of February 2004 between The Chemins Company, Inc.
(“Chemins”), 1835 E. Cheyenne Road, Colorado Springs,
Colorado 80906 and LifeLine Nutraceuticals Inc  Located
at: 6367 S Jamaica CT, Englewood Co 80111 (“Customer”);

     WHEREAS, Customer intends to distribute a line of dietary supplement products
and wishes to have Chemins manufacture such products; and

     WHEREAS, Chemins wishes to manufacture the products for Customer pursuant to the terms and
conditions contained in this Agreement.

     NOW,
THEREFORE, for the consideration expressed in this Agreement, It Is Hereby Agreed;

     1.
PRODUCTS: The products covered by this Agreement are those products as
submitted and agreed upon in accordance with a purchase order as stated in paragraph 3.2. If
Customer wishes to add other products to its product line during the term of the Agreement those
new products shall be covered by this Agreement provided that the parties mutually agree to their
pricing structure, specifications, and production schedule.

     2. TERM:
The term of this Agreement is continuous. It commences on the date
of this Agreement as set out above.

     3. MANUFACTURING PROVISIONS:

          3.1 Chemins agrees to manufacture the products in accordance with the agreed upon
formulation and specifications in a workmanlike manner. Additionally, Chemins promises
that (A) the ingredients and other items which it supplies for the products will be of
such quality that they will pass without objection in the dietary supplement industry; and
(B) in the case of finished product, each item (such as a capsule or tablet) will be of
superior quality. Manufacturer shall make it best efforts to fill orders in the time frame
quoted on the Manufacturing Quotation.

          3.2 Purchase orders shall be used whenever possible by a Customer when
placing a manufacturing order with Chemins. Each of those orders should, at a
minimum, identify the product ordered, the quantity to be manufactured, any special labeling,
quality, manufacturing, packaging, delivery requirements and shipping requirements, and should
allow a minimum three week lead time or the time quoted on the Manufacturing Quote. Customer agrees
that Chemins will not be bound by any preprinted language on purchase orders used by Customer and
will only be bound by the

1

 

language on those orders which reflects the information called for in this paragraph 3.2. See
paragraph 10.5 for rights and obligations upon termination.

          3.3 If the Customer wishes to initiate any product changes, whether before or after the
manufacturing process has begun for those products, Chemins has the right for a period of
ten days after receiving those requested changes to determine whether
it can or
wishes to manufacture such products. If Chemins is unable to or does not wish to
manufacture the products with those changes, it will inform the Customer within the ten
day period. If the parties are unable to agree to the terms regarding the product changes,
Customer shall have the right to have such products manufactured by someone other than
Chemins.

          3.4 Chemins is responsible for the maintenance and storage of materials and ingredients
for the products and Work in Progress [WIP] inventory. Chemins
will keep an accurate record of the receipt, use, and disposition of all property used
in the manufacture of the products. That record will include “shop orders”, Certificates
of Analysis from its suppliers, and shipment records.

          3.5 Manufacturer (Chemins) shall obtain in a reasonable time after the request is made,
at its own expense, casualty and theft insurance covering property owned by Customer while
in the possession of Chemins as well as product liability insurance.

          3.6 At any time during normal business hours, but not more frequently than one time per
week, Customer may inspect and copy the books, records and other documents of Chemins
relating to the receipt and disposition of all of Customer’s property in the possession of
Chemins. Chemins will give Customer access to its premises for such purposes. Customer
shall conduct such inspections in a manner that does not interfere with other ongoing
operations of Chemins.

          3.7 Chemins will adhere to all governmental regulations, certifications, or registration
with respect to dietary supplements as they pertain to the manufacturing facility [i.e.
physical plant].

          3.8 In the case of Customer supplied ingredients, Customer agrees to provide Chemins a
Certificate of Analysis with respect to each ingredient, each combination of ingredients
and each product furnished in finished form (e.g. tablet or capsule) to Chemins by
Customer. Each of those certificates shall be delivered along with the ingredient of
product furnished to Chemins. Customer guarantees to Chemins that each representation on
that certificate is true. Customer understands that Chemins will be relying on that
information when and as it undertakes its manufacturing

2

 

obligations pursuant to paragraph 3.1. The certificate shall not contain any language which limits
or disclaims Customer’s guarantee or liability and, to the extent it does Customer now agrees that
any such limitation or disclaimer shall be of no effect.

     4. ENFORCEMENT AND PRODUCT ACTIONS: Each party shall notify the other
immediately of any enforcement action, including any Warning Letter issued by the FDA to either of
them, and of any product liability claim which involves the products. This applies to action or
threatened action by local, state, or federal entity or by private party or entity.

     5. PRICING: The pricing for the manufacturing provided by Chemins shall
be as agreed upon by Customer and Chemins at the time of the submission of a purchase order in
accordance with paragraph 3.2. Those prices shall be effective from the date of this Agreement for
12 months; however, if the cost of acquisition to Chemins for the raw ingredients or other material
needed to manufacture the products increases during the procurement of material for an in-process
purchase order, Chemins is entitled to pass along that increase to Customer. Price change notice
will be given once all “in-process” orders are complete and the Customer will be allowed to decide
to accept the price change.

     6. PAYMENT TERMS: New Customers without approved credit agree to pay 50%
of each Purchase Order upon the delivery of that order to Chemins and the other 50% prior to
Chemins’ shipment of the products. After Customer establishes a credit history satisfactory to
Chemins, Chemins will allow Customer to pay, on a “net” basis, within 30 days from the invoice date
which will be the date of shipment. However, in any event, if Customer’s Account Receivable with
Chemins exceeds their established credit limit, or if any invoices become over 30 days old, Chemins
reserves the right to charge 18% APR interest on balance due and to discontinue
immediately, its performance of any and all obligations under this Agreement until Customer
arranges with Chemins, in its sole discretion, suitable payment provisions.

     7. EXCLUSIVE OWNERSHIP OF PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGY

          7.1 Customer has developed and owns the products and formulations for the products and
all patents, trademarks, copyrights and related goodwill with respect to the products,
formulations and Customer’s business.

          7.2 Returned Goods: No returned goods will be accepted unless the reason for the return
is a quality issue. Any products that are returned to the Chemins Company for any reason shall
have pre-authorization prior to return. All return

3

 

materials must be in their original
containers and must have all original labels intact. Returned goods must also be shipped back
in the original shipping container.

          7.2
Customer has developed and owns trademarks, copyrights, and any related goodwill.

          7.3 Nothing contained in this Section 7 shall be adverse to any Uniform Commercial Code
[the “UCC] or other rights Chemins has or may have in inventory, tools, dies, or other
property for which amounts remain owing to Chemins by Customer.

     8. CONFIDENTIALITY: Other than as may be required by any applicable law,
government order or regulation, or by order or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction,
neither party shall divulge or announce, or in any manner disclose to any third party, any
confidential information or matters revealed to the other party or any of the terms and conditions
of this Agreement which are specific to this Agreement. Each party shall do all such things as are
reasonably necessary to prevent any such information becoming known to any parry other than the
parties involved with the transaction.

     9.
CHEMINS’ AND CUSTOMER’S WARRANTIES; DISCLAIMERS:

          9.1 Chemins represents that it has self funded product liability coverage, which covers
Chemins and its employees against any claims, suits, losses, charges, costs, expenses
(including reasonable attorney’s fees), judgments, liabilities, and damages arising out of
Chemins’ manufacture of the products and any actual or alleged defects in the products. This
liability coverage contains standard exclusions from coverage. It is strongly recommended that
Customer will have in effect throughout the duration of this Agreement, a policy of insurance
which provides product liability insurance to Customer in an amount of at least $1,000,000 per
occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate per policy year.

          9.2 Customer acknowledges that Chemins is disclaiming any legal responsibility for the
safety and effectiveness of the products manufactured by it for Customer with respect to each
product’s labeling and all non-labeling promotional material. Among other things, this means
that Customer is solely liable and responsible for complying with all applicable state and
federal statutes and regulations such as, but not limited to, the Federal Trade Commission Act
of 1994, with respect to a product’s labeling and non-labeling promotional material. Chemins
agrees that, upon a request by a Customer, it will provide information and suggestions to
Customer about the formulation of a product. However, Customer understands and agrees that
Customer

4

 

waives any right to make or assert any type of claim against Chemins and any of its
employees and agents which arises out of or is based upon such information or
suggestions.

          9.3 UPC Codes: The Chemins Company is not responsible for the accuracy or function of UPC
Codes placed on product labels.

          9.4 Customer agrees and guarantees to defend, indemnify and hold Chemins and its
employees harmless of, from and against any injury, charges, suits, damages, costs, expenses
(including reasonable attorney’s fees), judgment, penalties, claims, liabilities or losses of
any kind or nature whatsoever, which may be demanded of or incurred by Chemins and its
employees arising out of Customer’s association with the
products. Including but not limited
to, claims related to (A) the ingredients, if any, supplied by Customer; (B) the labeling of
the products and non-labeling promotional material; (C) any trade secret, process, idea,
method or device supplied, in any manner by Customer to Chemins; (D) the failure of the
products to meet any national, state, or local laws or standards as a result of Customer
conduct; or, (E) any other alleged actual or alleged wrongful action of Customer which relates
to the products.

          9.5 Except for Chemins’ express warranties set out in paragraphs 3.1 and 9.1 of this
Agreement, Chemins does not make and expressly disclaims and excludes any warranty, whether
express or implied, including the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness with
respect to the products and any component, including ingredients, of those products.

     10. TERMINATION: This Agreement may be terminated by either party upon
90 days written notice to the other. In addition, either party may terminate this Agreement due to
a breach by the other:

          10.1 If Manufacturer’s (Chemins’) alleged failure is based upon paragraph 3.1 of this
Agreement, Chemins shall have thirty days to cure that breach (“First Cure Period”). If such a
breach remains uncured for thirty days, Customer may elect to manufacture the products that
are the subject of the particular default at an alternative source; if Customer makes that
election, Customer shall gives Chemins written notice of its intention to manufacture at an
alternative source within 48 hours of when Customer makes that election. If the problem or
issue that caused that breach is not solved or satisfied within an additional ten days (“Final
Cure Period”), this Agreement may be terminated at the option of Customer. If a breach occurs
due to Customer’s failure to pay timely as specified in paragraph 6., Chemins may
terminate this Agreement after it has given Customer 10 days written notice and if Customer
has not totally satisfied its payment obligation. If a breach by either party is in regard to
any other terms of the

5

 

Agreement, the breaching party shall have 20 days to cure said breach after receipt of written
notification of such failure or omission from the other .

          10.2 If Customer believes that Chemins has not shipped product on or by an agreed upon
date. Customer shall immediately notify Chemins by telephone, fax, letter or personal delivery
of the fact and inform Chemins of an absolute deadline for such shipment. The rights and
obligations of such parties at that point shall be governed by Title 4, Article 2 of the
Uniform Commercial Code.

          10.3 If a breach or anticipated breach by either party of any provision of this
Agreement causes or may cause the other to default on a material obligation to a third person
or entity, the non-breaching party shall promptly inform the other party of the fact in order
to prevent a default on the performance owed to a third party or to minimize damages, if any.

          10.4 The termination or expiration of this Agreement shall be without prejudice to
any rights or claims that a party has against the other and shall not release any party of any
obligation to pay any monies that become due or owing or arose out of any transaction prior to the
date of termination or expiration of this Agreement.

          10.5 Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, Chemins shall, within 14
calendar days, provide Customer with a statement showing the quantity and description of the
products, inventory, WIP, materials, and other property belonging to Customer covered by this
Agreement. Customer shall have the right to take a physical inventory to ascertain or verify
such statement during normal business hours. Customer shall have the right to take possession
of its property after payment is made for that property. Chemins has the right to be paid
within 30 calendar days of such termination’s or expiration for all finished product, WIP,
labels, other labeling, packaging, and other property directly related to the products. With
respect to raw ingredients which Chemins has purchased in order to perform its obligations
under this Agreement, Chemins will determine whether or not it can use them for any other
Customer’s products; if, in Chemins’ sole discretion, Chemins cannot do so, Customer shall pay
Chemins, within 30 days of Chemins’ determination, for those raw ingredients.

     11.
NO PARTNERSHIP, JOINT VENTURE OR AGENCY: Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall be deemed or construed to constitute or create between the parties a partnership,
joint venture or agency.

     12. FORCE MAJEURE: The parties shall be released from their respective
obligations if government regulations not currently existing or other causes arising out of a state
of war or other national emergency, or other causes beyond the reasonable

6

 

control of the parties such as fire, earthquake, or other casualty or natural cases, renders
performance of such obligations reasonably impracticable and if such event continues for a period
of 60 days,

     13. COMPLETE
AGREEMENT; “DAYS”: This Agreement contains all of the Agreements and
understandings of the parties relating to the subject matter. It merges all prior written or oral
communications between the parties. This Agreement may not be modified except by a writing signed
by the party to be bound. Each reference to a day in this Agreement means a calendar day, including
holidays.

     14
GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION: This  Agreement shall be interpreted and
enforced pursuant to the laws of Colorado only. The parties agree to submit all disputes arising
under or pursuant to this Agreement for resolution to the American Arbitration Association only.
Any such proceeding shall be handled by the AAA’s Denver office and shall proceed pursuant to its
Commercial Arbitration Rules according to its expedited rules. If either or both desire injunctive
relief, the parties may file such an action in the courts of the Sate of Colorado in the county of
El Paso or in the federal court located in Denver, Colorado, should
federal jurisdiction exist. All
claims for other types of relief, including damages, shall be decided by arbitration only; this
applies even if an action for injunctive relief is filed in a court.

Improved Area, including, but not limited to, use, sales, and any other taxes (except
income taxes) based on rents; the cost of all risk property insurance, including earthquake and
flood, and general liability insurance, including Landlord’s estimated fair market cost, not to
exceed ISO (Insurance Services Office) Manual Rates, for any of such risks against which Landlord
elects to self insure; costs incurred by Landlord to comply with federal, state or local laws
regarding hazardous materials; utilities not separately metered to individual tenants; costs of
leasing or amortization of energy reduction devices and systems, except those included in the

defects in the base, shell or core of the Building or improvements installed or repaired by
Landlord; interest, depreciation or expenditures of a capital nature, except to the extent that
such expenditures are made for the purpose of (i) reducing energy costs, maintenance costs or other

any improvements on the Improved Area, or (iii) complying with any governmental laws, regulations
or ordinances which were not required as of the date of this Lease; provided, however, Landlord
shall amortize the costs of such equipment, improvements or alterations on a straight line basis
over the useful life of the equipment, improvements, or alterations and only that portion amortized
during the calendar year in questions shall be included in Operating Costs. Operating Costs shall
be reasonably allocated between the Tower and the Retail Area. Also, if Landlord constructs any
other buildings for lease within the boundaries of the Improved Area, Operating Costs, exclusive of
those incurred directly for the Building hereunder and such other buildings, shall be reasonably
allocated between the Building hereunder and such other buildings. The determination of Operating
Costs and their allocation shall be in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
applied on a consistent basis. If the Building and other buildings located on the Improved Area are
not fully rented during all or a portion of any calendar year, Landlord shall make an appropriate
adjustment of the Operating Costs for such year, employing sound accounting and management
principles, to determine the amount of Operating Costs that would have been paid or incurred by
Landlord had all such buildings been one hundred percent (100%) rented, and the amount so
determined
 shall be deemed to have been the amount of Operating Costs for such year.

4 -           PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

     Operating Costs allocated to Tenant shall not reflect any type or degree of service or
duty performed by or through Landlord for any other tenant which is not required to be performed
for Tenant under this Lease which results in a cost in excess of the services or duties required to
be provided by Landlord under this Lease.

     C. Real Estate Taxes shall include, but not be limited to, all real property taxes and
assessments, personal property taxes levied on the Improved Area and equipment, fixtures, and other
property of Landlord located therein and used in connection with the operation thereof, and any
other taxes imposed by any federal, state, county, municipal, or other governmental entity, whether
assessed against Landlord and/or Tenant (except any net income tax or estate, inheritance, or
succession tax payable by Landlord), and the cost to Landlord of contesting the amount or validity
or applicability of any such taxes. Real Estate Taxes shall be reasonably allocated between the
Tower and the Retail Area. Also, if Landlord constructs any other buildings for lease within the
boundaries of the Improved Area, Real Estate Taxes shall be reasonably allocated between the
Building hereunder and such other buildings. The determination of Real Estate Taxes and their
allocation shall be in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a
consistent basis.

     D. During December of each calendar year or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord
shall give Tenant written notice of Landlord’s estimate of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Operating
Costs which exceed Base Operating Costs and Landlord’s estimate of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Real
Estate Taxes which exceed Base Real Estate Taxes payable hereunder for the ensuing calendar year.

     On or before the first day of each month during the ensuing calendar year, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord one twelfth (1/12) of such estimated amounts, provided that if such notices are not given
in December, Tenant shall continue to pay on the basis of the prior year’s estimates until the
month after such notices are given. If at any time it appears to Landlord that Tenant’s Pro Rata
Share of Operating Costs or Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Real Estate Taxes payable hereunder for the
current calendar year will vary from its estimate by more than twenty per cent (20%), Landlord may,
by written notice to Tenant, revise its estimate for such year, and subsequent payments by Tenant
for such year shall be based upon such revised estimate.

     E. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the close of each calendar year, or as soon
thereafter as is reasonably practicable, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement of additional
Rent for Operating Costs and additional Rent for Real Estate Taxes payable hereunder for such
calendar year. If such statement shows an amount owing by Tenant that is less than the estimated
payments for such calendar year previously made by Tenant, Landlord shall credit the excess to the
next succeeding monthly installment of Rent. If such statement shows an amount owing by Tenant that
is more than the estimated payments for such calendar year previously made by Tenant, Tenant shall
pay the deficiency to Landlord within thirty (30) days after delivery of such statement. There
shall be no reimbursement or allowance to Tenant if Operating Costs or

5 -          PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

Real Estate Taxes for any calendar year are less than the amounts designated as Base
Operating Costs or Base Real Estate Taxes.

     F. If, for any reason other than the default of Tenant, this Lease shall terminate on a day
other than the last day of a calendar year, the additional Rent for Operating Costs and/or Real
Estate Taxes payable by Tenant applicable to the calendar year in which such termination shall
occur shall be prorated on the basis which the number of days from the commencement of such
calendar year to and including such date of termination bears to three hundred sixty-five (365).

     G. Landlord shall, upon Tenant’s written request, deliver to Tenant a written accounting
showing how Operating Costs and Real Estate Taxes were calculated for the past year (except Base
Operating Costs and Base Real Estate Taxes). Tenant may object to the statement of Operating Costs
and Real Estate Taxes for the past year only if Tenant does so in writing to Landlord within ninety
(90) days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s statements of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Operating
Costs and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Real Estate Taxes. In the event of a timely objection made by
Tenant, Tenant and Landlord agree to cooperate in good faith to resolve any such objection. The
foregoing notwithstanding, Tenant shall in no way be relieved of its obligation to pay Tenant’s Pro
Rata Share of Operating Costs or Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Real Estate Taxes as calculated by
Landlord during the period in which it is cooperating with Landlord to resolve any objections as
provided herein. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 3 to the contrary, express or
implied, rent payable by Tenant shall in no event be less than the Base Rent specified in Section
1(b), as adjusted from time to time pursuant to this Lease.

     H. Tenant or Tenant’s representative (who shall be a certified public accountant who is not
paid on a commission basis), at Tenant’s expense, shall have the right during normal business hours
to examine, review and audit Landlord’s and its agent’s books and records relating to items
included in Operating Costs and Real Estate Taxes at Landlord’s offices or in such location where
such records are maintained by Landlord; provided, however, unless Tenant shall complete said audit
within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of receipt of Landlord’s year-end statement (see
Section 3.E above), Tenant shall forfeit its right to claim any adjustment to Tenant’s pro rata
share of Operating Costs or Real Estate Taxes. In the event that Tenant’s review demonstrates any
inaccuracy in the certification of Operating Costs or Real Estate Taxes, and Landlord concurs
therein, any excess or deficiency owing to, or owed by, Tenant shall, as the case may be, be
credited against the next installment(s) of Additional Rent due hereunder, or paid by Tenant with
the next installment thereof. If there is a discrepancy in favor of Tenant of more than five
percent (5%) of Operating Costs, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable cost of such
audit. In all other cases, Tenant shall bear all costs incurred with respect to such audit.

4. UTILITIES

     Landlord shall provide to the Leased Premises the following utility services: water, sewer,
electricity. Utility charges for which separate billings are not available shall be treated as
Operating Costs. If heat, light, water or any other utility services are supplied to and metered
directly to the Leased Premises, Tenant shall pay the cost thereof, and make any required deposits
related thereto. Separate additional charges may be made to Tenant, if Tenant, in Landlord’s
reasonable judgment, makes excessive utility system demands where such services are not separately
metered. Landlord does not warrant that any of the utility services will be free from interruption
caused by Unavoidable Delay, as defined in Article 23 below.

     Landlord may, in its sole discretion, limit the number of telephone circuits available to Tenant
based on a pro rata share calculated by multiplying the total number of circuits available to all
tenants in the Building by Tenant’s Pro Rata Share. Landlord or its representative will cause the
telephone circuits/lines to be connected in and/or to the Leased Premises at Tenant’s sole cost and
expense.

     Upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, Landlord may, in its sole discretion, require
Tenant to remove, at Tenant’s expense, all telephone, computer, data, or other such wiring
associated with the Leased Premises to the point-of-connection, except such wiring which Tenant can
demonstrate was not paid for and/or installed by Tenant. The point-of-connection shall be
determined by Landlord. Tenant shall repair, or reimburse Landlord for the cost of repairing, any
damage resulting from removal of such wiring.

5. SERVICES

     Landlord shall maintain all parking and common areas, which maintenance shall include
lighting, gardening, cleaning, snow removal, sweeping, painting and window cleaning; and shall
provide for the Leased Premises and the Building such other services, including, but not limited
to, air-cooling, heating, replacement of building standard lamps as needed and the interior
janitorial services listed on Exhibit “D”, as are necessary to maintain them in reasonably good
order and condition. Landlord shall maintain and repair the exterior of the Building, its
structural portions and the roof. The cost of such services shall be considered an Operating Cost.
Any services provided to Tenant by Landlord which are not provided to other Tenants in the building
shall be provided at Tenant’s expense.

     The Building HVAC system and lighting to the Leased Premises shall be furnished by Landlord during
normal working hours (from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. weekdays, and from 7:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on
Saturdays, legal holidays excepted), or at such other times as requested by Tenant, in which event
Tenant shall pay the additional cost thereof. After hours HVAC is charged at market rate (currently
$50.00 per hour) and after hours lighting is charged at market rate (currently $5.00 per hour).
Charges are subject to change at Landlord’s discretion. The level of other services shall be that
customarily provided by landlords of first-class buildings in the

7 -           PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

Denver, Colorado area. For purposes of this paragraph, “legal holidays” shall mean New
Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Day, Presidents’ Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day,
Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and such other national holidays as may hereafter be established
by the United States government.

     Landlord shall not be liable in any event, nor shall Rent be abated, because of interruption of
such services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of an interruption of services or
utilities due to causes under Landlord’s reasonable control (i.e. such causes that Landlord could
independently correct), and such interruption continues for more than five (5) business days, and
provided that each such interruption makes the Leased Premises unsuitable for the operation of
Tenant’s business therein, Tenant may equitably abate rent for the time period the Leased Premises
are deemed unsuitable. In no event, however, shall Landlord be liable for consequential damages
resulting from any interruption of services. In addition, a disruption of utility service caused by
the negligence, acts or omissions by Landlord, its agents, contractors, servants, or employees
shall not constitute a termination of this Lease, nor shall it constitute a constructive or actual
eviction of Tenant.

6. INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

     A. Landlord, its agents, servants, employees, invitees, or contractors (each an
“Indemnified Party”) shall not be liable to Tenant and Tenant hereby waives all claims against each
Indemnified Party for any injury to or death of any person or damage to or destruction of property
in or about the Leased Premises or the Building by or from any cause whatsoever, including without
limitation, gas, fire, oil, electricity, or leakage of any character from the roof, walls,
basement, or other portion of the Leased Premises or the Building, but excluding, however, the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Party of
which gross negligence or willful misconduct Landlord has knowledge and reasonable time to correct.
Landlord shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Tenant, its agents, servants, employees,
invitees, or contractors (“Tenant Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all expenses,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, imposed on Tenant Indemnified Parties, arising out of any
injury or death of any person or damage to or destruction of property occurring in or on the Leased
Premises caused by the Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Except as to injury to
persons or damage to property the principal cause of which is the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of an Indemnified Party, Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold each Indemnified Party
harmless from and against any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in connection
therewith, arising out of any injury to or death of any person or damage to or destruction of
property occurring in, on, or about the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, from any cause
whatsoever. Landlord agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold each Tenant Indemnified Party harmless
from and against any claim, loss, or expense arising out of injury, death or property loss or
damage occurring in the common areas of the Building, except where the principal cause of such
injury, death, or property loss or damage is the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Tenant
Indemnified Party. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from
and against any and all expenses, including reasonable

8 -           PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

attorneys’ fees, imposed on any Indemnified Party, arising out of any injury or death
of any person or damage or destruction of property occurring in or on the common areas of the
Building caused by Tenant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

     B. Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, agrees to keep in force during the Term of this Lease and
any extensions thereof the following insurance policies:

     (1) Liability Insurance. Commercial general liability insurance which insures against claims
for bodily injury, personal injury, advertising injury, and property damage based upon, involving,
or arising out of the use, occupancy, or maintenance of the Leased Premises and the Building. Such
insurance shall afford, at a minimum, the following limits:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Each Occurrence
	 	$	1,000,000	 
	General Aggregate
	 	 	2,000,000

	 	 	50,000	 
	Medical Payments
	 	 	5,000	 

Any general aggregate limit shall apply on a per location basis. Tenant’s commercial general
liability insurance shall name Landlord, its trustees, officers, directors, members, agents,
employees, Landlord’s representatives, and Landlord’s mortgagees as additional insureds. This
coverage shall include blanket contractual liability, broad form property damage liability,
premises-operations and products-completed operations, and shall contain an exception to any
pollution exclusion which insures damage or injury arising out of heat, smoke, or fumes from a
hostile fire. Such insurance shall be written on an occurrence basis and contain a standard
separation of insureds provision.

     (2) Business Automobile Liability Insurance. Tenant shall carry business automobile liability
insurance covering owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles with limits of $1,000,000 combined single
limit per occurrence.

     (3) Worker’s Compensation and Employer’s Liability Insurance. Tenant shall carry workers’
compensation insurance in accordance with the laws of the state in which the Leased Premises are
located and employer’s liability insurance in an amount not less than $1,000,000.

     (4) Umbrella/Excess Liability Insurance. Tenant shall carry umbrella/excess liability
insurance, on an occurrence basis, that applies excess of required commercial general liability,
business automobile liability, and employer’s liability policies with the following minimum limits:

9 -           PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

	 	 	 	 	 
	Each Occurrence
	 	$	5,000,000	 
	Annual Aggregate
	 	$	5,000,000	 

These limits shall be in addition to and not including those stated for the underlying
commercial general liability, business automobile liability, and employers liability
insurance required herein. Such excess liability policies shall name Landlord, its trustees,
officers, directors, members, agents, and employees, Landlord’s mortgagees, and Landlord’s
representatives as additional insureds.

     (5) Property Insurance. All risk property insurance including theft, sprinkler leakage,
and boiler and machinery coverage on all of Tenant’s trade fixtures, furniture, inventory,
and other personal property in the Leased Premises, and on any alterations, additions, or
improvements made by Tenant upon the Leased Premises all for the full replacement cost
thereof. Tenant shall use the proceeds from such insurance for the replacement of trade
fixtures, furniture, inventory, and other personal property and for the restoration of
Tenant’s improvements, alterations, and additions to the Leased Premises. Landlord shall be
named as loss payee with respect to alterations, additions, or improvements of the Leased
Premises.

     (6) Business Income Insurance. Tenant shall carry business income and extra expense
insurance with limits not less than one hundred percent (100%) of all charges payable by
Tenant under this lease for a period of twelve (12) months.

     C. All policies required to be carried by Tenant hereunder shall be issued by and
binding upon an insurance company licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is
located with a rating of at least “A-X” or better as set forth in the most current issue of Best’s
Insurance Reports, unless otherwise approved by Landlord. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to
be done that would invalidate the insurance policies required herein. Liability insurance
maintained by Tenant shall be primary coverage without right of contribution by any similar
insurance that may be maintained by Landlord. Certificates of insurance, acceptable to Landlord,
evidencing the existence and amount of each insurance policy required hereunder shall be delivered
to Landlord prior to delivery of possession of the Leased Premises and ten (10) days following each
renewal date. Certificates of insurance shall include an endorsement for each policy showing that
Landlord, its trustees, officers, directors, agents, and employees, Landlord’s mortgagees, and
Landlord’s representatives are included as additional insureds on liability policies and that
Landlord is loss payee for property insurance as stated in Section 6.B.(5) above. Further, the
certificates must include an endorsement for each policy whereby the insurer agrees not to cancel,
non-renew, or materially alter the policy without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice
to Landlord. In the event that Tenant fails to provide evidence of insurance required to be
provided by Tenant in this Lease, prior to the Commencement Date and thereafter during the Term,
within ten (10) days following Landlord’s request thereof, and thirty (30) days prior to the
expiration of any such coverage, Landlord shall be authorized (but not required) to procure such
coverage in the amount stated with all costs thereof to be chargeable to Tenant and

10 –      PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

payable upon written invoice thereof. The limits of insurance required by this Lease, or as
carried by Tenant, shall not limit the liability of Tenant or relieve Tenant of any obligation
thereunder, except to the extent provided for under Article 7 (Waiver of Subrogation) below. Any
deductibles selected by Tenant shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant. Tenant insurance
requirements stipulated in Section 6.B. above are based upon current industry standards. Landlord
reserves the right to require additional coverage or to increase limits as industry standards
change.

     D. Should Tenant engage the services of any contractor to perform work in the Leased Premises,
Tenant shall ensure that such contractor carries commercial general liability (including completed
operations coverage for a period of three (3) years following completion of the work), business
automobile liability, umbrella/excess liability, worker’s compensation and employers liability
coverages in substantially the same amounts as are required of Tenant under this Lease. Contractor
shall name Landlord, its trustees, officers, directors, members, agents, and employees, Landlord’s
mortgagees, and Landlord’s representatives as additional insureds on the liability policies
required hereunder. All policies required to be carried by any contractor shall be issued by and
binding upon an insurance company licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is
located with a rating of at least “A-X” or better as set forth in the most current issue of Best’s
Insurance Reports, unless otherwise approved by Landlord. Certificates of insurance, acceptable to
Landlord, evidencing the existence and amount of each insurance policy required hereunder shall be
delivered to Landlord prior to the commencement of any work in the Leased Premises. Further, the
certificates must include an endorsement for each policy whereby the insurer agrees not to cancel,
non-renew, or materially alter the policy without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice
to Landlord. The foregoing requirements shall apply equally to any subcontractor engaged by
contractor.

     E. Landlord shall procure and maintain the following:

     (1) Property Insurance. All risk property insurance on the Property. Landlord shall not
be obligated to insure any furniture, equipment, trade fixtures, machinery, goods, or
supplies which Tenant may keep or maintain in the Leased Premises or any alteration,
addition, or improvement which Tenant may make upon the Leased Premises. In addition,
Landlord may elect to secure and maintain rental income insurance. If the annual cost to
Landlord for such property or rental income insurance exceeds the standard rates because of
the nature of Tenant’s operations, Tenant shall, upon receipt of appropriate invoices,
reimburse Landlord for such increased cost.

     (2) Liability Insurance. Commercial general liability insurance, which shall be in
addition to, and not in lieu of, insurance required to be maintained by Tenant. Tenant shall
not be named as an additional insured on any policy of liability insurance maintained by
Landlord.

11 –       PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

     (3) Other Insurance. In addition, Landlord may elect to secure any other policies
that Landlord deems necessary. Landlord may elect to self-insure for the coverage required
under this section.

     (4) Cost of Landlord’s Insurance. Insurance premiums paid hereunder shall be a portion
of the Operating Costs described in Section 3.B. hereof.

7. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION

     Landlord waives any and all rights of recovery against Tenant for or arising out of
damage to, or destruction of the Leased Premises to the extent that Landlord’s property insurance
policies then in force insure against such damage or destruction and permit such waiver and only to
the extent of insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord for such damage or destruction.
Tenant waives any and all rights of recovery against Landlord for or arising out of damage to, or
destruction of any property of Tenant to the extent that Tenant’s property insurance policies then
in force or the policies required by this Lease, whichever is broader, insure against such damage
or destruction.

8. REPAIRS

     Except for services provided by Landlord, Tenant agrees to maintain in a clean, orderly
and sanitary condition and keep in good repair, the interior of the Leased Premises, ordinary wear
and tear excepted. Such maintenance and repair shall be at the sole cost of Tenant and shall
include but not be limited to the maintenance and repair of floor covering, ceilings and walls,
front and rear doors, and all interior glass on the Leased Premises. If Tenant fails to maintain or
keep the Leased Premises in good repair and such failure continues for fifteen (15) days after
written notice from Landlord, Landlord may perform any such required maintenance and repairs and
the reasonable cost thereof shall be additional Rent payable by Tenant within ten (10) days of
receipt of any invoice therefor from Landlord.

9. TENANT’S PROPERTY

     Furnishings, trade fixtures, computer and telephone wiring, and moveable equipment, if
any, paid for and installed by Tenant, shall be the property of Tenant. On expiration of this
Lease, if there is then no Event of Default, Tenant may remove any such property and shall remove
any such property if directed by Landlord. Tenant shall repair, or reimburse Landlord for the
reasonable cost of repairing, any damage resulting from removal of Tenant’s property. If Tenant
fails to remove such property as required under this Lease, or in the event Tenant abandons (as
defined in Article 21 of this Lease) the Leased Premises, Tenant shall be deemed to have abandoned
all interest in any such property remaining or then in or upon the Leased Premises and Landlord may
remove the same as its own property and dispose of such property as it desires without liability to
Tenant.

12 –       PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

10. IMPROVEMENTS AND ALTERATIONS BY TENANT

     Tenant may make such additional improvements or alterations to the Leased Premises as it
deems necessary or desirable, but only with Landlord’s prior written approval (which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld). Any such improvements or alterations by Tenant shall be at Tenant’s
expense and shall be done by a licensed contractor approved by Landlord in conformity with plans
and specifications approved by Landlord. If requested by Landlord, Tenant will post a bond or other
security reasonably satisfactory to Landlord to protect Landlord against liens arising from work
performed for Tenant. All work performed shall be done in a good and workmanlike manner, in
accordance with applicable law and with materials (where not specifically described in the
specifications) of the quality and appearance comparable to those in the Building. Prior to the
commencement of any work or delivery of any materials to the Leased Premises, Tenant shall furnish
Landlord, for its approval, copies of the following:

     (a) plans and specifications;

     (b) names and addresses of contractors;

     (c) copies of contracts;

     (d) necessary permits; and

     (e) such other items as may be reasonably requested by Landlord to protect itself in
connection with the work.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s consent shall not be required for any alteration that
satisfies all of the following criteria (a “Minor Alteration”); (a) is of a cosmetic nature such as
painting, wallpapering, hanging pictures, and installing carpeting; (b) is not visible from outside
the Leased Premises or Building; (c) will not affect the systems or structure of the Building; (d)
does not require work to be performed inside the walls or above the ceiling of the Leased Premises;
and (e) the total cost of such alteration is less than $15,000. Although Landlord’s consent shall
not be required for Minor Alterations, Tenant shall provide Landlord three (3) business days’ prior
written notice of its intent to undertake such Minor Alteration, specifying therein the scope of
such Minor Alteration.

     Except as provided in Article 9 above, all alterations, fixtures (except unattached, removable
trade fixtures) and improvements, including those made or installed in or upon the Leased Premises
by or for Tenant, shall immediately become Landlord’s property and, at the end of the Lease Term,
shall remain on the Leased Premises without compensation to Tenant.

13 –       PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

11. CASUALTY

     If the Leased Premises or the Building are destroyed or damaged by fire, earthquake or
other casualty to the extent that the Leased Premises are untenantable in whole or in part, then
Landlord shall, except as provided below, proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild and restore
the Leased Premises or such part thereof as may be destroyed or damaged, and during the period of
such rebuilding and restoration, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, and Rent shall
be abated in the same ratio as the square footage in the portion of the Leased Premises rendered
untenantable, if any, shall bear to the total square footage in the Leased Premises. If Landlord
shall reasonably determine that such destruction or damage cannot be rebuilt and restored within
one hundred eighty (180) days of the occurrence, it shall so notify Tenant within sixty (60) days
after the occurrence of such damage or destruction. In such event, either Landlord or Tenant may,
within twenty (20) days after such notice, terminate this Lease. If neither party terminates this
Lease during such twenty (20)-day period, this Lease shall remain in effect and Landlord shall
diligently proceed to rebuild and restore the Leased Premises, and Rent shall abate as set forth
above. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event the Leased Premises are
rendered untenantable due to the fault or neglect of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees, or
licensees, there shall be no abatement of Rent.

12. ASSIGNMENT, LETTING AND SUBLETTING

     A. Tenant, its legal representatives and successors in interest, shall have no
right to assign, let or sublet or permit assigning, letting or subletting of this Lease, the Leased
Premises or any part thereof, respectively, without first obtaining the written consent of
Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and any attempt
to do so shall be null and void. Any consent of Landlord, unless specifically stated therein, shall
not relieve Tenant from its obligations under this Lease, and a consent by Landlord to any one
assignment or subletting shall not constitute a consent to any other or subsequent assignment or
subletting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as it is not in default at the time such
assignment or subletting is made, Tenant may assign its interest in this Lease or sublet any
portion of the Leased Premises without Landlord’s consent to any of the following: (i) any
corporation which controls, is controlled by, or under control with Tenant, provided that the net
worth of such corporation at the time of the proposed sublease or assignment is equal to or greater
than Tenant’s net worth as of the date of this Lease; (ii) any corporation resulting from the
merger or consolidation of Tenant, provided that the resulting corporation has a net worth equal to
or greater than Tenant’s net worth as of the date of this Lease; or (iii) any person or entity
which acquires all the assets of Tenant as a going concern of the business that is being conducted
on the Leased Premises, provided that such person or entity has a net worth equal to or greater
than Tenant’s net worth as of the date of this Lease. Although Landlord’s prior consent is not
required for Tenant to assign or sublease the Lease to the foregoing persons or entities, (a)
Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten (10) business days’ prior written notice of the pending
transfer and evidence of the transferee’s net worth such that Landlord can confirm the net worth
requirements set forth above, (b) the permitted assignees or subtenants must expressly agree in
writing to

14 –      PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

assume all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and, (c) unless otherwise agreed to by
Landlord in writing, Tenant shall not be released from any obligations under this Lease despite any
such sublease or assignment.

     B. In addition to any other reasonable basis, Landlord shall be deemed to be reasonably
withholding its consent to any assignment, letting or subletting requiring its consent, if Tenant
is in default under any of the terms of this Lease at the time Tenant requests Landlord’s consent
to a proposed assignment or subletting, or if such assignment, letting or subletting would result
in the assignment, leasing or subleasing of the Leased Premises to any party, business or lessee:

     (1) who proposes to conduct a business therein which is not in conformance with the
provisions of Article 2 hereof; or

     (2) who is then a lessee, sublessee or otherwise an occupant of the Building if the
Landlord has, or will have during the ensuing six (6) months, suitable space for rent in the
Building; or

     (3) whose business is of a character which is not, in Landlord’s opinion, consistent
with the character of the Building.

     C. In the event that Tenant proposes any assignment of this Lease or sublease of the Leased
Premises requiring landlord’s consent, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing at least thirty (30)
days before the date on which such assignment or sublease is to be effective and, as included in
such notice, furnish Landlord with (a) the name of the proposed assignee or sublessee (the
“Transferee”), (b) a detailed description of the business of the Transferee, (c) financial
statements of the Transferee (audited if available), (d) all written agreements governing the
sublease, and (e) any other information reasonably requested by Landlord with respect to the
assignment, sublease or the Transferee. Landlord shall respond to Tenant’s request for approval or
disapproval of the proposed assignment or sublease within fourteen (14) days after Landlord
receives Tenant’s request and all documents and information required in the preceding sentence. If
Landlord consents to a proposed assignment or sublease of this Lease, the appropriate parties shall
enter into an assignment or consent to sublease agreement drafted by Landlord. Consent by Landlord
to any assignment or subletting shall not include consent to the assignment or transferring of any
lease renewal options, option rights to additional space or the Leased Premises, special privileges
or extra services granted to Tenant under this Lease, unless otherwise agreed to by Landlord in
writing. In the event of an assignment or sublease, any such options or privileges granted to
Tenant shall be void and of no effect.

     D. In the event Tenant makes a request for Landlord’s consent in accordance with subparagraph
(C) above, Landlord shall have the right, to be exercised by giving written notice to Tenant within
fourteen (14) days after receipt of Tenant’s request to recapture the space described in Tenant’s
request, and such recapture notice shall, if given, cancel and terminate this Lease with

15 –      PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

respect to the space therein described as of the date stated in Tenant’s notice. If Tenant’s
request shall cover all of the Leased Premises, and Landlord shall have exercised its foregoing
recapture right, the term of this Lease shall expire and end on the date stated in Tenant’s request
as fully and completely as if that date had been herein definitely fixed for the expiration of the
term. If, however, this Lease be canceled with respect to less than the entire Leased Premises, the
Rent shall be adjusted by Landlord based upon the number of rentable square feet within the Leased
Premises so remaining after the “recapture” and such rent shall be reduced accordingly from and
after the termination date for said portion, and this Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter
in full force and effect. The rent adjustments provided for herein shall be evidenced by an
amendment to Lease executed by Landlord and Tenant. If this Lease shall be terminated in the manner
aforesaid, either as to the entire Leased Premises or only a portion thereof, to such extent the
term of this Lease shall end upon the appropriate effective date of the proposed sublease or
assignment as if that date had been originally fixed in this Lease for such expiration, and in the
event of a termination affecting less than the entire Leased Premises, Tenant shall surrender such
portion of the Leased Premises affected thereby and leave the same in good order and condition. In
the event of any termination pursuant to this paragraph, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and
expense, discharge in full any outstanding commission obligation on the part of Landlord with
respect to that part of this Lease so terminated, and any commission which may be due and owing as
a result of any proposed assignment or subletting, whether or not the subject portion of the Leased
Premises is “recaptured” pursuant thereto and rented by Landlord to the proposed tenant or any
other tenant. If Landlord exercises its recapture right under this paragraph, Landlord shall have
the right to enter into a direct lease arrangement with Tenant’s proposed assignee or subtenant
upon terms and conditions acceptable to Landlord, which may include those terms negotiated between
Tenant and the proposed assignee or subtenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
foregoing, if Landlord recaptures the Leased Premises or a portion thereof and enters into a direct
lease with the proposed assignee or subtenant on the same terms and conditions offered by Tenant to
the proposed assignee or subtenant, then Landlord shall be responsible for the payment of any
commissions owing as a result of the assignment or subletting.

     E. Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all net profit derived by Tenant
from any assignment or subletting. For purposes of the foregoing, “net profit” shall be deemed to
be the amount of all rent payable by such assignee or sublessee in any given year of the Lease Term
in excess of the Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease during such year less the following
verifiable costs and expenses: (i) any improvement allowance or other economic concession paid by
Tenant to the assignee/subtenant; (ii) broker’s commissions paid by Tenant with regard to the
subletting; (iii) attorneys’ fees incurred by Tenant in connection with the assignment or sublease;
(iv) lease takeover payments; (v) costs of advertising the Leased Premises for sublease, and (vi)
reasonable costs incurred by Tenant to make improvements to the Leased Premises for the
assignee/subtenant to occupy the Leased Premises. If a part of the consideration for such
assignment or subletting shall be payable other than in cash, the payment to Landlord shall be in
cash for its share of any non-cash consideration based upon the fair market value thereof. Tenant
shall and hereby agrees that it will furnish to Landlord upon

16 –       PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

request from Landlord a complete statement, certified by an officer or representative of
Tenant with authority to do so, setting forth in detail the computation of all net profit derived
and to be derived from such assignment or subletting, such computation to be made in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. Tenant agrees that Landlord or its authorized
representatives shall be given access at all reasonable times to the books, records and papers of
Tenant relating to any such assignment or subletting, and Landlord shall have the right to make
copies thereof. The percentage of Tenant’s profit due Landlord hereunder shall be paid to Landlord
within five (5) business days of receipt by Tenant of all payments made from time to time by such
assignee or sublessee to Tenant.

     F. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for all costs incurred by Landlord,
including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, to prepare and negotiate all documents in
connection with any requested sublease or assignment, which fee and costs shall not exceed $1000.00
for any proposed assignment or subletting.

13. LIENS AND INSOLVENCY

     Tenant shall keep the Leased Premises, the Building and the Improved Area free from any liens
arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by Tenant. If
Tenant becomes insolvent or voluntarily or involuntarily bankrupt, or if a receiver, trustee or
other liquidating officer is appointed for the business or property of Tenant, Landlord shall have
the right and option at any time thereafter to terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant.

14. CONDEMNATION

     If all or any part of the Leased Premises are taken under power of eminent domain or like
power, or sold under imminent threat thereof to any public authority or private entity having such
power, this Lease shall terminate as to the part of the Leased Premises so taken or sold, effective
as of the date possession is required to be delivered to such authority or entity. Rent for the
remaining Lease Term shall be reduced in the proportion that the Tenant’s Total Square Footage is
reduced by the taking. If a partial taking or sale of the Building or the Leased Premises (i)
substantially reduces the area of the Leased Premises resulting in a substantial inability of
Tenant to use the Leased Premises for Tenant’s business purposes as determined by Tenant in its
reasonable business judgment exercised in good faith, or (ii) renders the Building unviable to
Landlord, Tenant, in the case of clause (i), or Landlord, in the case of clause (ii) may terminate
this Lease by notice to the other party within thirty (30) days after the terminating party
receives a written notice of the portion to be taken or sold, such termination to be effective
one-hundred- eighty (180) days thereafter, or when the portion is taken or sold, whichever is
sooner. All condemnation awards and similar payments shall be paid and belong to Landlord, except
any amounts awarded or paid specifically for Tenant’s trade fixtures and relocation costs, provided
such awards do not reduce Landlord’s award. Nothing contained herein shall diminish Tenant’s right
to deal on its own behalf with the condemning authority.

17 –     PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

15. CONSTRUCTION CONDITIONS [Intentionally omitted]

16. OCCUPANCY

     Tenant acknowledges that the Leased Premises is being leased to Tenant in its “as-is”
condition and Tenant agrees that neither Landlord nor any representative of Landlord has made any
representation or warranty with respect to the condition of the Leased Premises. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Landlord represents that it has not received any written notice from any federal,
state, municipal or other governmental agency of any material claim related to the Building or the
Building’s material noncompliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Landlord further agrees
that, prior to the Lease Commencement Date, Landlord shall undertake those repairs to the Leased
Premises set forth in Exhibit “C attached hereto. Tenant may use and occupy the Leased Premises
beginning fifteen (15) days prior to the Lease Commencement Date for the purpose of completing
alterations and installing furniture or equipment in the Leased Premises. During such period,
Tenant agrees to observe and perform all the provisions of this Lease except those which require
the payment of Rent; provided, however, if Tenant commences business in any part of the Leased
Premises prior to commencement of the Lease Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord rent (“Occupancy
Rent”) for each day prior to the Lease Commencement Date, calculated on the basis of the per diem
Rent and all other sums which would be due to Landlord from Tenant if the Lease Term had commenced.

17. RULES AND REGULATIONS

     Tenant covenants that Tenant and its agents, employees, invitees, or those claiming under
Tenant, will at all times observe, perform and abide by all reasonable rules and regulations
promulgated by Landlord, from time to time, as long as such rules and regulations do not conflict
with, or unreasonably modify, any provision of this Lease. Landlord’s rules and regulations in
effect on the date hereof are attached hereto as Exhibit
“F”.

18. PARKING

     Landlord shall provide parking within a seven level structure (1-6 covered) contiguous to the
Building. Within said structure, Tenant may lease from Landlord seventeen (17) unreserved and two
(2) reserved parking spaces for use by the Tenant at the then-current monthly market rate, to be
determined by Landlord in its sole discretion based on the parking charges assessed by other Class
A buildings with structured parking in the Denver Tech Center/Greenwood Plaza area. The current
monthly market rate for unreserved parking spaces is Fifty-five and no/100 Dollars ($55,00) per
space per month. The current monthly market rate for reserved parking spaces is Seventy-five and
no/100 Dollars ($75.00) per space per month. Tenant shall pay the foregoing parking charges to
Landlord or its designee on the first day of each month of the Lease Term. All present and future
parking shall be within such parking areas and not within the street right-of-way. There shall be
no on-street parking. Tenant may not lease parking spaces within said structure from anyone other
than Landlord. Tenant may not sublease parking spaces within

18 –       PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

said structure to anyone other than a subtenant to whom an assignment, letting, or subletting
was made pursuant to Article 12 hereof. The number of parking spaces allotted to Tenant under this
paragraph has been calculated based on a ratio of 3 parking spaces per 1,000 rentable square feet
of the Leased Premises. Therefore, if during the original or renewal term of this Lease the square
footage of the Leased Premises should change, the number of parking spaces granted to Tenant shall
be modified accordingly.

19. ACCESS

     Landlord or Landlord’s employees, agents or contractors may enter the Leased Premises at
reasonable times (and, during normal business hours, upon such advance notice as may be practicable
under the circumstances) for the purpose of inspecting, altering or repairing the Leased Premises
or other portions of the building and for the purpose of ascertaining compliance by Tenant with the
provisions of this Lease. Landlord may also show the Leased Premises to prospective purchasers,
renters (only during the last nine (9) months of the Lease Term) or lenders during regular business
hours and upon reasonable notice, provided that Landlord shall not unreasonably interfere with
Tenant’s business operations or with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Leased Premises. Landlord
shall repair, at Landlord’s expense, any damage to the Leased Premises resulting from the exercise
of the foregoing rights by Landlord or Landlord’s employees, agents or contractors.

20. SIGNS

     All signs and symbols placed on the doors or windows or elsewhere about the Leased Premises,
or upon any other part of the Building, including building directories, shall be subject to the
approval of Landlord. Tenant shall have no right to place signs outside the Building and within the
Improved Area. As soon as reasonably possible after the Lease Commencement Date, Landlord shall
place Tenant’s name on the main building lobby directory, provide building standard signage in the
elevator lobby of the floor on which the Leased Premises are located, and building standard suite
signage on or about the entry door to the Leased Premises (the “Initial Signage”). The cost to
complete the Initial Signage shall be borne by Landlord. Tenant shall be entitled to place signs
within the interior of the Leased Premises without having first obtained Landlord’s approval,
provided that such signage is not visible from common areas of the Building, including, but not
limited to, elevators and common area corridors. Upon expiration of this Lease, all signs installed
by Tenant shall be removed and any damage resulting therefrom shall be promptly repaired, or such
removal and repair may be done by Landlord and the cost thereof charged to Tenant as additional
Rent hereunder.

21. TENANT’S DEFAULT

     It shall be an “Event of Default” if (i) Tenant fails to pay Rent or any other
charge or payment required of Tenant hereunder when due and such failure continues for
ten (10) days after written notice thereof to Tenant by Landlord; (ii) Tenant violates
or fails to perform any of

19 –       PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

the other conditions, covenants or agreements herein made by Tenant, and such violation or
failure continues for fifteen (15) days after written notice thereof to Tenant by Landlord or if
such default cannot be cured within fifteen (15) days if Tenant commences to cure the default
within the fifteen (15)-day period, but fails to proceed diligently and fully cure the default
within thirty (30) days; (iii) Tenant makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors
or files a petition for bankruptcy or other reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or similar
relief; (iv) a proceeding is filed against Tenant seeking any relief mentioned in (iii) above which
is not dismissed within thirty (30) days after filing; (v) a trustee, receiver or liquidator is
appointed for Tenant or a substantial part of its property; (vi) Tenant’s interest under this Lease
is taken upon execution or by other process of law directed against Tenant or shall be subject to
any attachment by or on behalf of any creditor of Tenant; (vii) Tenant mortgages, assigns (except
as expressly permitted in this Lease) or otherwise encumbers Tenant’s interest under this Lease; or
(viii) Tenant abandons the Leased Premises (which shall be defined as failure to occupy the Leased
Premises for a period of 30 consecutive days).

     If an Event of Default occurs, Landlord may: (i) without obligation to do so and without
releasing Tenant from any obligation under this Lease, make any payment or take any action Landlord
may deem necessary or desirable to cure such Event of Default, and the cost thereof shall be
reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days after demand; (ii) terminate this Lease by
written notice to Tenant as of the date such notice is given or as of any other date specified in
such notice; (iii) with or without terminating this Lease, reenter and take possession of the
Leased Premises by legal proceedings; (iv) with or without terminating this Lease, if Tenant has
vacated or abandoned the Leased Premises, reenter and take possession of the Leased Premises, or
any part thereof, and remove the effects therein without liability for any damages thereto and
without being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass and without prejudice to any other remedies
of Landlord hereunder; and (v) exercise any other legal remedy, including, without limitation,
equitable remedies, on account of such Event of Default. All remedies of Landlord under this Lease
shall be cumulative, and the exercise of any of such remedies shall not prevent the concurrent or
subsequent exercise of any other remedy.

     Should Landlord elect to reenter or take possession of the Leased Premises pursuant to legal
proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may, from time to time, without any obligation to do so and
without terminating this Lease, relet the Leased Premises or any part thereof on behalf of Tenant
for such term or terms and at such rent or rents, and upon such other terms and conditions, as
Landlord may deem advisable in its sole discretion (including, without limitation, giving
concessions, free rent, and payment of concessions, but subject to Landlord’s duty to mitigate its
damages), with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Leased Premises. No such reentry or
taking of possession of the Leased Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on
Landlord’s part to terminate this Lease, unless a written notice of termination is given to Tenant
by Landlord, nor shall it preclude Landlord from terminating this Lease at a later time by giving
written notice to Tenant.

20 –       PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

     If Landlord elects to take possession without terminating this Lease, then such
repossession shall not relieve Tenant of its obligations and liabilities under this Lease, all of
which shall survive such repossession. In the event of such repossession, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, as Rent, all Rent which would be payable hereunder if such repossession had not occurred,
less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Leased Premises, after deducting all of
Landlord’s expenses in connection with such reletting, and rental concessions. Tenant shall pay
such Rent to Landlord on the days on which such Rent would have been payable hereunder if
possession had not been retaken.

     If, however, this Lease is terminated by Landlord, Landlord shall be entitled to recover as
damages from Tenant, in addition to all other damage suffered by Landlord on account of any Event
of Default, the present value of all of the Rent which would have been due for the remainder of the
Lease Term had this Lease not been terminated (less the present value of any amounts Tenant proves
Landlord has received or will receive from the reletting of the Leased Premises for the remainder
of the Term), plus all of Landlord’s costs of reletting the Leased Premises, including repair,
alteration, and preparation of the Leased Premises for reletting, brokerage commissions, attorneys’
fees, and rental concessions. Said amount shall be immediately due and payable by Tenant to
Landlord. Any amount due to Landlord hereunder may be collected after termination.

22. PERSONAL PROPERTY LIEN [Intentionally omitted]

23. QUIET ENJOYMENT, INABILITY TO PERFORM

     A. If, and so long as, Tenant pays Rent and keeps and performs each and every term, covenant
and condition herein contained on the part and on behalf of Tenant to be kept and performed, Tenant
shall quietly enjoy the Leased Premises without hindrance or molestation by Landlord, subject to
the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease and the Superior Instruments, as defined and
provided in Article 35 below.

     B. Landlord shall pay all taxes and assessments so as not to jeopardize Tenant’s use of the
Leased Premises. The foregoing notwithstanding, Landlord shall be entitled to contest any tax or
assessment which it deems to be improperly levied against the Improved Area or any part thereof, so
long as Tenant’s use of the Leased Premises is not interfered with.

     C. Except as provided in this Lease, this Lease and the obligations of Tenant to pay Rent and
perform all of the terms, covenants and conditions on the part of Tenant to be performed shall in
no way be affected, impaired or excused because Landlord, due to Unavoidable Delay (as defined
below), is (a) unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this Lease, or (b) unable to supply
or is delayed in supplying any service expressly or impliedly to be supplied, or (c) unable to make
or delayed in making any repairs, replacements, additions, alterations or decorations, or (d)
unable to supply or is delayed in supplying any equipment or

21 –       PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

fixtures. Landlord shall in each instance exercise reasonable diligence to effect performance
when and as soon as possible.

     “Unavoidable Delay” shall mean any and all delays beyond Landlord’s reasonable control,
including without limitation, delay caused by Tenant, governmental restrictions, governmental
regulations or controls, undue delays by governmental authorities, order of civil, military, or
naval authority, governmental preemption, strikes, labor disputes, lockouts, shortage of labor or
materials, inability to obtain materials or reasonable substitutes therefor, default of any
contractor or subcontractor, acts of God, fire, earthquake, floods, explosions, actions of the
elements, extreme weather conditions, enemy action, civil commotion, riot or insurrection, delays
in obtaining governmental permits or approvals and any other cause beyond Landlord’s reasonable
control.

24. HOLD OVER TENANCY

     If (without execution of a new lease or written extension) Tenant shall hold over after
the expiration of the Lease Term, Tenant may, at Landlord’s election, be deemed to be occupying the
Leased Premises as a tenant from month to month, which tenancy may be terminated as provided by
law. During such tenancy, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord one hundred fifty percent (150%) of (i)
Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Operating Costs and (ii) the then current Base Rent, as set forth
herein, unless a different rate is agreed upon in writing, and to be bound by all of the terms,
covenants and conditions as herein specified, so far as applicable.

25. ATTORNEYS’ FEES

     In the event either party requires the services of any attorney in connection with enforcing
the terms of this Lease, or in the event suit is brought for the recovery of any Rent due under
this Lease, or for the breach of any covenant or condition of this Lease, or for the restitution of
the Leased Premises to Landlord and/or eviction of Tenant during the Lease Term, or after the
expiration thereof, the party prevailing in any such legal action shall be awarded all legal costs
and expenses, including, but not limited to, a reasonable sum for attorneys’ fees, whether incurred
at trial, on appeal or otherwise.

26. AMENDMENT, WAIVER

     This Lease constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior
agreements or understandings between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. No
prior agreement or understanding shall be effective. This Lease shall not be amended or modified
except in writing by both parties. No covenant or term of this Lease shall be waived except with
the express written consent of the waiving party whose forbearance or indulgence in any regard
shall not constitute a waiver of such covenant or term. Failure to exercise any right in one or
more instances shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to strict performance or as an
amendment to this Lease.

28. BINDING EFFECT, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, GENDER

     The submission of this document for examination does not constitute an offer to lease, or
a reservation of, or option for, the Premises. This document becomes effective and binding only
upon the execution and delivery hereof by the proper officers of Landlord and by Tenant. Subject to
the provisions in Article 12, this Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties and their successors and assigns. It is understood and agreed that the terms “Landlord” and
“Tenant” and verbs and pronouns in the singular number are uniformly used throughout this Lease
regardless of gender, number or fact of incorporation of the parties hereto.

23 -       PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

29. ADDENDA AND ATTACHMENTS

     The typewritten addenda, exhibits or supplemental provisions, if any, attached or added
hereto, are made a part of this Lease by reference and the terms thereof shall control over any
inconsistent provisions in the paragraphs of this Lease.

30. LIMITATION OF LANDLORD’S LIABILITY

     The obligations of Landlord under this Lease do not constitute personal obligations of
the individual partners, directors, officers, or shareholders of Landlord, and Tenant shall look
solely to the real estate that is the subject of this Lease and to no other assets of the Landlord
for satisfaction of any liability in respect of this Lease and will not seek recourse against the
individual partners, directors, officers or shareholders of Landlord or any of their personal
assets for such satisfaction or for any deficiency judgment should Tenant be unable to satisfy any
liability owed to it.

31. LANDLORD’S RESERVED RIGHTS

     Without notice and without liability to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to:

     (1) Change (i) the name of the Building, and (ii) the street address of the Building if
required to do so by an appropriate authority;

     (2) Install and maintain reasonable signs on the exterior of the Building;

     (3) Make reasonable rules and regulations as, in the judgment of Landlord, may from time to
time be needed for the safety of the tenants, and the care and cleanliness of the Building and the
preservation of good order therein. Tenant shall be notified in writing when each such rule and
regulation is promulgated;

     (4) Grant utility easements or other easements to such parties, or replat, subdivide or make
such other changes in the legal status of the land underlying the Improved Area, as Landlord deems
necessary, provided such grant or changes do not substantially or materially interfere with
Tenant’s use of the Leased Premises as intended under this Lease; and

     (5) Sell the Building and assign this Lease to the purchaser (and upon such assignment be
released from all of its obligations under this Lease which accrue after such assignment). Tenant
agrees to attorn to such purchaser, or any other successor or assign of Landlord through
foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise and to recognize such person as Landlord
under this Lease, as provided more fully in Article 35 below.

24 -       PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

32. OFFSET STATEMENT

     Within ten (10) days after request therefor by Landlord, its agents, successors or
assigns, Tenant shall deliver, in recordable form, a certificate to any proposed mortgagee or
purchaser, or to Landlord, together with a true and correct copy of this Lease, certifying, if
applicable (i) this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification, (ii) the amount, if
any, of prepaid Rent and security deposit paid by Tenant to Landlord, (iii) that Landlord, as of
the date of the certificate, has performed all of its obligations due to be performed under this
Lease and that there are no defenses, counterclaims, deductions or offsets outstanding, or other
excuses for Tenant’s performance under this Lease, or stating those claimed by Tenant, and (iv) any
other fact reasonably requested by Landlord or such proposed mortgagee or purchaser, which does not
modify or conflict with Tenant’s rights under this Lease. Tenant’s failure to deliver said
statement in time shall be conclusive upon Tenant: (a) that this Lease is in full force and effect,
without modification except as may be represented by Landlord, (b) that there are no uncured
defaults in Landlord’s performance and Tenant has no right of offset, counterclaim defenses or
deduction against Rent or Landlord hereunder; and (c) that no more than one month’s Rent has been
paid in advance. The foregoing certifications by Tenant shall be set forth on an estoppel
certificate in substantially the same form as the one attached hereto as Exhibit “H.”

33. ACCORD AND SATISFACTION

     No receipt and retention by Landlord of any payment tendered by Tenant in connection with
this Lease will give rise to, or support, or constitute an accord and satisfaction, notwithstanding
any accompanying statement, instruction or other assertion to the contrary (whether by notation on
a check or in a transmittal letter or otherwise), unless Landlord expressly agrees to an accord and
satisfaction in a separate writing duly executed by the appropriate persons. Landlord may receive
and retain, absolutely and for itself, any and all payments so tendered, notwithstanding any
accompanying instructions by Tenant to the contrary. Landlord will be entitled to treat any such
payments as being received on account of any item or items or Rent, interest, expenses or damage
due in connection herewith in such amounts and in such order as Landlord may determine at its sole
option.

34. SEVERABILITY

     The parties intend this Lease to be legally valid and enforceable in accordance with all
of its terms to the fullest extent permitted by law. If any term hereof shall be finally held to be
invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree that such term shall be stricken from this Lease, the
same as if it never had been contained herein. Such invalidity or unenforceability shall not extend
to or otherwise affect any other term of this Lease, and the unaffected terms hereof shall remain
in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law, the same as if such stricken term
never had been contained herein.

25 -      PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

35. SUBORDINATION

     The rights of Tenant hereunder are, and shall be, at the election of any mortgagee,
subject and subordinate to the lien of any deeds of trust, mortgages, the encumbrance of any
leasehold financing, or the lien resulting from any other method of financing or refinancing, now
or hereafter in force against the Improved Area or the Building, and to all advances made, or
hereafter to be made upon the security thereof (herein referred to as the “Superior Instruments”).
The foregoing notwithstanding, for any liens or Superior Instruments filed of record after the
execution of this Lease, the rights of Tenant under this Lease shall not be subject or subordinated
to such liens or Superior Instruments unless the holders thereof execute an agreement in form and
substance similar to the Attornment and Nondisturbance Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “G”. If
requested, Tenant agrees to execute whatever reasonable documentation may be required to further
effectuate the provisions of this paragraph.

     Tenant agrees to attorn to any purchaser of the Building, or any other successor
or assign of Landlord through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, in return for
and upon delivery to Tenant by such purchaser or mortgagee, as the case may be, of an
agreement substantially in the form of the Attornment and Nondisturbance Agreement.

36. TIME

     Time is of the essence hereof.

37. APPLICABLE LAW

     This Lease shall be construed according to the local laws of the State of Colorado,
without regard to the principles of conflicts of law, and venue shall be in Arapahoe County,
Colorado.

38. BROKER’S INDEMNIFICATION

     As part of the consideration for the granting of this Lease, Tenant represents and
warrants to Landlord that no broker or agent negotiated or was instrumental in the negotiation or
consummation of this Lease. Tenant agrees to indemnify Landlord against any loss, expense, cost or
liability incurred by Landlord as a result of any claims by any broker claiming to have represented
Tenant in this transaction.

39. SECURITY DEPOSIT

     The Tenant shall deposit with the Landlord, upon the Lease Commencement Date, the sum of
Thirty Thousand One Hundred Forty-four and no/100 Dollars ($30,144.00) as security for the Rent
payable hereunder, for the return of the Leased Premises in good order and condition, and for the
performance of each and every one of the terms, covenants and conditions herein

26 -      PLAZA TOWER ONE LEASE

 

 

stipulated. Said sum shall not be applicable by the Tenant to the payment of Rent or any other
charges for which it may become liable under this Lease and such deposit shall in no way relieve
Tenant from the faithful and punctual performance of all covenants and conditions hereby imposed
upon it. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, including, but not limited
to, the provisions relating to the payment of rentals or the condition of the Premises at Lease
Expiration, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part of the
Security Deposit for the payment of any Rental or any other sum in default, or for the payment of
any amount that Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant’s default, or
to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage that Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant’s
default. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, within five
(5) days after written demand therefor, deposit lawful money or a cashiers check with Landlord in
an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount, and Tenant’s failure
to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease. Landlord shall not be required to keep the
Security Deposit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on
the Security Deposit. Landlord is not a trustee of the Security Deposit and may use it in ordinary
business, transfer it, or assign it, or use it in any combination of such ways. Landlord agrees
that at the termination of this Lease, or at the termination of any extension hereof, and provided
that the Tenant has complied in all respects with the terms, covenants and conditions herein, that
portion of the deposit still held by Landlord shall be returned to Tenant thirty (30) days after
the Leased Premises have been vacated in good order and condition. In the event of a sale or
leasing of the Building, Landlord shall have the right to transfer the security deposit to its
vendee and Landlord shall thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability for the return of the
security deposit. In such event, Tenant agrees to look solely to the new landlord for the return of
said deposit. The provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment made of the
security deposit to a new landlord. Within thirty (30) days after the beginning of the thirteenth
month of the Lease Term, if Tenant has not been in breach of the Lease at any time during the Lease
Term, Landlord shall return to Tenant Ten Thousand Thirty-eight and no/100 Dollars ($10,038.00) of
the Security Deposit. Within thirty (30) days after the beginning of the twenty-fifth month of the
Lease term, if Tenant has not been in breach of the Lease at any time during the Lease Term,
Landlord shall return to Tenant an additional Ten Thousand Thirty-eight and no/100 Dollars
($10,038.00) of the Security Deposit.

40. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

hereinafter referred to as “Interest Holder” and                     , hereinafter referred to
as “Tenant”.

WITNESSETH:

     THAT, WHEREAS, PROPERTY COLORADO OBJLW ONE CORPORATION, an
Oregon corporation, hereinafter referred to as “Landlord”, has by Lease executed on
                     leased to Tenant for a term of years, commencing on
                    , and ending on                     , or upon such
postponed date as shall be designated by written endorsement to the Lease, certain portions of the
building located in the County of Arapahoe, State of Colorado, such portions being hereinafter
called the “Leased Premises”, and the building more particularly described as follows:

     WHEREAS, Interest Holder is the holder of a lien or other interest in the form of a
                     and recorded at                      and any

     WHEREAS, the encumbered premises under the foregoing Encumbrance are the same premises as, or
include the Leased Premises set forth in, the legal description above;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

     1. Tenant agrees that in the event of any foreclosure or the exercising of any other rights
under the Encumbrance, whereby Interest Holder shall cause Landlord to be ousted from possession or
assert any right of ownership inconsistent with Tenant’s right under the Lease, at any time and
from time to time after commencement of the term of the
Lease and prior to the expiration, cancellation or other termination thereof, for any reason,
Tenant shall be bound to Interest Holder, the purchaser at a foreclosure sale, any receiver
appointed under the Encumbrance, assignment of rents, or court order, or any assignee or successor
in interest (all of which are hereinafter referred to as “Transferee”) under all of the terms,
covenants, and conditions of the Lease during the remaining term thereof, including any extensions
or renewals which may be effected in accordance with any option in the Lease, with the same force
and effect as if Transferee were Landlord under the Lease, and Tenant does hereby attorn to
Transferee as its Landlord.

1- EXHIBIT “G”

 

 

     2. The parties hereto do hereby covenant and agree that the Lease and any
modifications and amendments thereto subsequently approved by Interest Holder, and all rights,
options, liens or other charges created thereby, are, and shall continue to be, subject and
subordinate in all respects to the Encumbrance and the lien created thereby, to any advance made
thereunder, to any consolidations, extensions, modifications, or renewals thereof, and to any other
mortgage on the Leased Premises held by Interest Holder.

     3. So long as no default exists and no event has occurred which would entitle Landlord to
terminate the Lease, Interest Holder agrees that in the event of any foreclosure or the exercising
of any other rights under said Encumbrance whereby any such Transferee shall oust Landlord of
possession or assert any right of ownership which would, in the absence of this Agreement, be
inconsistent with Tenant’s rights under the Lease and prior to the expiration or termination
thereof, the Lease shall, in accordance with its terms, remain in full force and effect as a direct
Lease between Transferee and Tenant and the possession of Tenant under the Lease shall not be
disturbed by any such event. The Transferee shall be entitled to all of the rights and benefits and
subject to all of the obligations of the immediately prior landlord under the Lease. If successive
rights should be asserted by any or several Transferees separately or in any combination, Tenant
shall have the same rights to continue the Lease in effect in each such instance.

     4. In order to effect the provisions of the preceding paragraphs, Interest Holder does
hereby grant and demise to Tenant the Leased Premises for a term of years to commence upon the
exercise of any right described in the preceding paragraphs.

          Such term of years shall be upon the terms and conditions of the Lease as though the Lease were
between Transferee and Tenant.

     5. The provisions of the preceding paragraphs are to be effective and self operating
without the execution of any further instruments upon Transferee’s succeeding to the interest of
Landlord under the Lease.

     6. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon Tenant, Interest
Holder, Transferee, their successors and assigns.

     7. The
effective date of this Agreement is                     , 20     , and the
covenants and conditions hereof shall apply from and after said date.

     8. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall pertain to said Lease now
or as hereafter amended or extended.

     9. Neither Interest Holder nor Transferee shall in any way or to any extent (i) be
obligated or liable to Tenant for any prior act, omission or default on the part of Landlord under
the Lease, or (ii) be obligated or liable to Tenant for any security deposit or other sums
deposited

with Landlord not physically delivered to Interest Holder or Transferee, or (iii) be bound by
any previous prepayment of rent for a period greater than one month, unless such modification,
amendment or prepayment shall have been expressly authorized in writing by Interest Holder, and
Tenant shall have no right to set off assets or counterclaim against Interest Holder or the
Transferee for any of the acts or omissions of Landlord referred to in (i), (ii), or (iii) above.

     10. In the event of any act or omission by Landlord under the Lease which would give Tenant
the right to terminate the Lease or claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant shall not exercise
any such right until (i) it has given notice thereof to Interest Holder, and (ii) Interest Holder,
following the giving of such notice, shall have failed to commence or pursue action to remedy such
act or omission in the manner set forth in the Lease.
