EXHIBIT 10.01

                            INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
                            -------------------------

     This INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into and effective
this 7th day of June, 2006, by and between COLONIAL COMMERCIAL CORP., a New York
corporation (the "Company"), and ______________________________ ("Indemnitee").

     WHEREAS, highly competent persons are becoming more reluctant to serve
publicly-held corporations as directors or officers unless they are provided
with adequate protection through insurance and adequate indemnification against
inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service
to and activities on behalf of the corporation;

     WHEREAS, Indemnitee is a director or officer of the Company;

     WHEREAS, both the Company and Indemnitee recognize the increased risk of
litigation and other claims being asserted against directors and officers of
public companies in today's environment;

     WHEREAS, the current impracticability of obtaining adequate insurance and
the uncertainties relating to indemnification have increased the difficulty of
attracting and retaining such persons;

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that the
inability to attract and retain such persons would be detrimental to the best
interests of the Company and its stockholders and that the Company should act to
assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in
the future;

     WHEREAS, the Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate") of the
Company requires the Company to indemnify expenses to its directors and officers
to the fullest extent permitted by New York law and the Indemnitee has been
serving and continues to serve as a director or officer of the company in part
in reliance on such provisions of the Certificate; and

     WHEREAS, in recognition of Indemnitee's need for substantial protection
against personal liability so that Indemnitee may continue to serve the Company
free from undue concern for litigation claims for damages arising out of or
related to the performance of such service, the increasing difficulty in
obtaining satisfactory director and officer liability insurance and Indemnitee's
reliance on the aforesaid Certificate, and in part to provide Indemnitee with
specific contractual assurance that the protection promised by such Certificate
will be available to Indemnitee (regardless of, among other things, any
amendment to or revocation of such Certificate, or any significant change in the
composition of the Company's Board of Directors, or any acquisition transaction
relating to the Company), it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the
Company to provide in this Agreement for the indemnification of and the
advancing of expenses to Indemnitee to the fullest extent (whether partial or
complete) permitted by law and as set forth in this Agreement, and, to the
extent insurance is maintained, for the continued coverage of Indemnitee under
the Company's directors' and officers' liability insurance policies.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and of
Indemnitee continuing to serve the Company directly or, at its request, another
enterprise, and intending to be legally bound thereby, the parties hereto agree
as follows:

                                        1

                                INDEMNIFICATION

2.1  In General. The Company shall indemnify and advance Expenses to Indemnitee
     ----------
     in connection with any Proceeding by reason of (or arising in part out of)
     an Indemnifiable Event as provided in this Agreement and to the fullest
     extent permitted by applicable law in effect on the date hereof and to such
     greater extent as applicable law may thereafter from time to time permit.
     Prior to a Change in Control, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to
     indemnification (including any advancement of Expenses) pursuant to this
     Agreement in connection with any Proceeding initiated by Indemnitee unless
     either (i) the Board of Directors has authorized or consented to the
     initiation of such Proceeding, or (ii) such Proceeding seeks to enforce
     Indemnitee's rights under this Agreement.

2.2  Basic Indemnification Arrangement. If Indemnitee was or is a party or is
     ---------------------------------
     threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding by reason of (or arising in
     part out of) an Indemnifiable Event, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee
     to the fullest extent permitted by law as soon as practicable, but in any
     event no later than thirty (30) days after written demand is presented to
     the Company, against any and all Expenses, judgments, fines, ERISA excise
     taxes or penalties, and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest,
     assessments, and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in
     respect of such Expenses) actually and reasonably incurred by or for him or
     her in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of
     such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, provided that
     Indemnitee acted in Good Faith. If so requested by Indemnitee, the Company
     shall advance (within two (2) business days of such request) any and all
     such Expenses to Indemnitee (an "Expense Advance"). The obligation of the
     Company to make an Expense Advance

                                        3
<PAGE>
     pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be subject to the condition that, if,
     when and to the extent that it is determined by the forum selected by
     Indemnitee pursuant to Section 4.4 that Indemnitee would not be permitted
     to be so indemnified under applicable law, the Company shall be entitled to
     be reimbursed by Indemnitee (who hereby agrees to reimburse the Company)
     for all such amounts theretofore paid; provided that the Company's
     obligation to make the Expense Advances under this Section 2.2 or any
     advance of Expenses under Article III shall not be qualified or conditioned
     in any manner by the Company on the Indemnitee's ability to reimburse the
     Company; and provided, further, that if Indemnitee has commenced or
     thereafter commences legal proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction
     to secure a determination that Indemnitee should be indemnified under
     applicable law, any determination made by such forum that Indemnitee would
     not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law shall not be
     binding and Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for
     any Expense Advance until a final judicial determination is made with
     respect thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been
     exhausted or lapsed).

2.3  Witness Expenses. The Company agrees to compensate Indemnitee for the
     ----------------
     greater of $300 per hour or the reasonable value of his or her time spent,
     and to reimburse Indemnitee for all Expenses incurred by him or her, in
     connection with being a witness, or if Indemnitee is threatened to be made
     a witness, with respect to an Indemnifiable Event or any other matter
     relating to the Company. The term witness includes, without limitation, the
     giving of formal or informal information to the Board, any special
     committee of the Board, any governmental agency, or to an attorney or any
     other representative of the foregoing.

                                  ARTICLE III

                        INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT

                            FOR ADDITIONAL EXPENSES

     Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the
Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses (including
attorney's fees) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee and, if
requested by Indemnitee, shall (within two (2) business days of such request)
advance such Expenses to Indemnitee, which are actually and reasonably incurred
by Indemnitee in connection with (i) any hearing or proceeding under Article IV
involving Indemnitee and against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred
by Indemnitee in connection with any other action between the Company and
Indemnitee involving the interpretation or enforcement of the rights of
Indemnitee under this Agreement, and/or (ii) any action brought by Indemnitee
for recovery under any directors' and officers' liability insurance policies
maintained by the Company, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is
determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advance expense payment or
insurance recovery, as the case may be. The obligation of the Company to make
the expense advance pursuant to this Article III shall be subject to the
condition that if, when and to the extent that a final judicial determination is
made that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be so indemnified under
applicable law, the Company shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Indemnitee
(who hereby agrees to reimburse the Company) for all such amounts theretofore
paid.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                    DETERMINATION OF RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION

4.1  No Determination Necessary When Indemnitee Was Successful. To the extent
     ---------------------------------------------------------
     Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
     Proceeding referred to in Section 2.2 of this Agreement or in the defense
     of any claim, issue or matter described therein, the Company shall
     indemnify Indemnitee against Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by
     or for Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, or appeal
     of such Proceeding. A claim, issue or matter in any Proceeding for which
     Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise is sometimes
     referred to herein as a "successfully defended claim."

4.2  Determination of Good Faith. In the event that Section 4.1 is inapplicable,
     ---------------------------
     the Company shall also indemnify Indemnitee unless, and only to the extent
     that, the Company shall prove by clear and convincing evidence to a forum
     listed in Section 4.4 below that Indemnitee did not act in Good Faith. A
     claim, issue or matter in any Proceeding for which there has been no
     determination under this Section is sometimes referred to herein as a
     "good-faith claim."

4.3  Partial Indemnification. If in any Proceeding certain claims, issues or
     -----------------------
     matters constitute either successfully defended claims or good faith
     claims, while other claims, issues or matters are neither successfully
     defended claims nor good faith claims, then the Company shall indemnify
     Indemnitee against Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by or for
     Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, or appeal of the
     successfully defended claims or good faith claims.

4.4  Forum for Determination. Indemnitee shall be entitled to select the forum
     -----------------------
     in which the validity of the Company's claim under Section 4.2 hereof that
     Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification will be heard from among the
     following:

          (a) A committee of the Disinterested Directors, even though the
     Disinterested Directors may be less than a quorum;

          (b) The stockholders of the Company;

          (c) Legal counsel selected by Indemnitee, and reasonably approved by
     the Board, which counsel shall make such determination in a written
     opinion; or

          (d) A panel of three arbitrators, one of whom is selected by the
     Company, another of whom is selected by Indemnitee and the last of whom is
     selected by the first two arbitrators so selected.

     As soon as practicable, and in no event later than thirty (30) days after
written notice of Indemnitee's choice of forum pursuant to this Section 4.4, the
Company shall, at its own expense, submit to the selected forum in such manner
as Indemnitee or Indemnitee's counsel may reasonably request, its claim that
Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, and the Company shall act in good
faith to assure Indemnitee a complete opportunity to defend against such claim.

4.5  Right to Appeal. In the case of a determination by any forum listed in
     ---------------
     Section 4.4 hereof that Indemnitee is not entitled to whole or partial
     indemnification with respect to a specific Proceeding, or a failure by any
     such forum to make any determination, Indemnitee shall have the right to
     apply to the court in which that Proceeding is or was pending for the
     purpose of enforcing Indemnitee's right to indemnification pursuant to this
     Agreement or

                                        5
<PAGE>
     to commence litigation in any court in the State of New York having subject
     matter jurisdiction thereof and in which venue is proper seeking an initial
     determination by the court or challenging any such determination by such
     forum or any aspect thereof, including the legal or factual basis
     therefore, and the Company hereby consents to service of process and to
     appear in any such proceeding. Any determination of such forum otherwise
     shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and Indemnitee.

                                    ARTICLE V

                                PRESUMPTIONS AND

                          EFFECT OF CERTAIN PROCEEDINGS

5.1  Burden of Proof. In making a determination with respect to entitlement to
     ---------------
     indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such
     determination shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification
     under this Agreement and the Company shall have the burden of proof to
     overturn that presumption in connection with the making by any person,
     persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption.

5.2  Effect of Other Proceedings. The termination of any Proceeding or of any
     ---------------------------
     claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or
     conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not
     of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or
     create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in Good Faith. In
     addition, neither the failure of any forum listed in Section 4.4 to have
     made a determination as to whether Indemnitee has met any particular
     standard of conduct or had any particular belief, nor an actual
     determination by any such forum that Indemnitee has not met such standard
     of conduct or did not have such belief, prior to the commencement of legal
     proceedings by Indemnitee to secure a judicial determination that
     Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable law shall be a defense to
     Indemnitee's claim or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met any
     particular standard of conduct or did not have any particular belief.

5.3  Reliance as Safe Harbor. To the extent permitted under applicable law, for
     -----------------------
     purposes of any determination of Good Faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to
     have acted in Good Faith if Indemnitee's action is based on the records or
     books of account of the Company, including financial statements, or on
     information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the Company in the
     course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Company
     or on information or records given or reports made to the Company by an
     independent registered public accounting firm or by an appraiser or other
     expert selected with reasonable care by the Company. The provisions of this
     Section 5.3 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the
     other circumstances in which the Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the
     applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.

5.4  Actions of Others. The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any
     -----------------
     director, officer, agent or employee of the Company shall not be imputed to
     Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under
     this Agreement.

<PAGE>
                                   ARTICLE VI

                          NON-EXCLUSIVITY, INSURANCE,

                              PERIOD OF LIMITATIONS

6.1  Non-Exclusivity. The rights of indemnification and to receive advances of
     ---------------
     Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any
     other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under
     applicable law, the Certificate, the By-laws, any agreement, a note of
     stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise.

6.2  Insurance. The Company may maintain an insurance policy or policies against
     ---------
     liability arising out of this Agreement or otherwise, and to the extent
     that the Company maintains such a policy or policies, Indemnitee shall be
     covered by such policy or policies, in accordance with its or their terms,
     to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any Company director or
     officer.

6.3  Period of Limitations. No legal action shall be brought and no cause of
     ---------------------
     action shall be asserted by or in the right of the Company against
     Indemnitee, Indemnitee's spouse, heirs, executors or personal or legal
     representatives after the expiration of two years from the date of the
     facts which gave rise to such cause of action, and any claim or cause of
     action of the Company shall be extinguished and deemed released unless
     asserted by the timely filing of a legal action within such two-year
     period; provided, however, that if any shorter period of limitations is
     otherwise applicable to any such cause of action, such
     shorter period shall govern.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                                CHANGE IN CONTROL

7.1  Change in Control. The Company agrees that if there is a Change in Control
     -----------------
     of the Company, then with respect to all matters thereafter arising
     concerning the rights of Indemnitee to indemnity payments and advances of
     any Expenses under this Agreement, or any other provision(s) under any
     agreement or the Company's Certificate or By-laws now or hereafter in
     effect relating to Proceedings for Indemnifiable Events, the Company shall
     seek legal advice only from Independent Legal Counsel selected by
     Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval shall not be
     unreasonably withheld). Such counsel, among other things, shall render its
     written opinion to the Company and Indemnitee as to whether and to what
     extent the Indemnitee would be permitted to be indemnified under applicable
     law. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Legal
     Counsel referred to above and to indemnify fully such counsel against any
     and all expenses (including attorney's fees), claims, liabilities and
     damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement
     pursuant hereto.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                      NOTICE TO COMPANY; DEFENSE OF CLAIMS

8.1  Promptly after receipt by Indemnitee of notice to him or her of the
     commencement or threat of any Proceeding covered hereby, Indemnitee shall
     notify the Company of the commencement or threat thereof, provided that any
     failure to so notify shall not relieve the Company of any of its
     obligations hereunder.

                                        7
<PAGE>
8.2  Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain one or more counsel from time to
     time selected by it in its sole discretion to act as its counsel in and for
     the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of each Proceeding. The
     Company shall not waive any privilege or right available to Indemnitee in
     any such Proceeding.

8.3  The Company shall bear all fees and Expenses (including invoices for
     advance retainers) of such counsel, and all fees and Expenses invoiced by
     other persons or entities, in connection with the investigation, defense,
     settlement or appeal of each such Proceeding.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

9.1  Binding Effect, Etc. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
     -------------------
     benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective
     permitted successors and assigns, including any direct or indirect
     successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or
     substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, spouses,
     heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives. This Agreement
     shall continue in effect regardless of whether Indemnitee continues to
     serve as an officer or director of the Company or of any other enterprise
     at the Company's request.

9.2  Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be severable in the
     ------------
     event that any of the provisions hereof (including any provision within a
     single section, paragraph or sentence) are held by a court of competent
     jurisdiction to be invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable in any respect,
     and the validity and enforceability of any such provision in every other
     respect and of the remaining provisions hereof shall not be in any way
     impaired and shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by
     law.

9.3  No Adequate Remedy. The parties declare that it is impossible to measure in
     ------------------
     money the damages which will accrue to either party by reason of a failure
     to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, if
     either party shall institute any action or proceeding to enforce the
     provisions hereof, such party against whom such action or proceeding is
     brought hereby waives the claims or defense that such party has an adequate
     remedy at law, and such party shall not urge in any such action or
     proceeding the claim or defense that the other party has an adequate remedy
     at law.

9.4  Identical Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
     ----------------------
     counterparts, each of which shall, for all purposes, be deemed to be an
     original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
     Agreement. Only one such counterpart signed by the party against whom

      2. DEMISE AND TERM

    

    2.01.
      Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hires from Landlord, the Demised
      Premises, for the Term and at the Rent described below, and otherwise upon
      the
      terms of this Lease. 

    2.02.
      The
“Term” is the number of years specified in the Lease Summary, plus the number of
      days necessary so that the Term shall end on the last day of a calendar month.
      The Term shall commence on the Commencement Date, and shall end on such earlier
      date on which the Term may be canceled or terminated pursuant to this Lease
      or
      as provided by law. 

     

    2.03.
      The
“Commencement Date” shall be the date upon which Landlord notifies Tenant that
      Landlord’s Work, as described on Exhibit B attached hereto, has been
“substantially completed”; i.e.,
      with
      the exception of minor “punch list” items that: (i) do not materially interfere
      with Tenant’s use of the Demised Premises for the purpose specified in the Lease
      Summary, (ii) do not unreasonably interfere with the completion of Tenant’s
      fitout work, if any, and (iii) can be remediated or completed within thirty
      (30)
      days after the Commencement Date. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and
      promptly approve or specify any change in the drawings and specifications
      submitted by Landlord for Landlord’s Work. If Tenant shall delay in such
      approval and/or specification so that Landlord is unable to begin work within
      fifteen (15) days of the date on which this Lease is executed and delivered,
      or
      shall specify any item other than those offered by Landlord as building standard
      and such item is not immediately available, then the completion of Landlord’s
      Work will be deemed to occur one day earlier for each day of the delay than
      the
      date on which Landlord’s Work has been substantially completed. Landlord
      represents that, on or before the Commencement Date, a permanent or temporary
      certificate of occupancy will have been issued for the Demised Premises by
      the
      applicable municipal building authority. If the certificate of occupancy is
      temporary, it shall permit Tenant to use the Demises Premises for the purposes
      stated in this Lease, and Landlord shall diligently pursue the issuance of
      a
      permanent certificate of occupancy.

    

    2.04.
      Landlord will provide Tenant reasonable access to the Demised Premises prior
      to
      the Commencement Date for the purposes of installation of its telecommunications
      wiring and equipment, and to otherwise prepare the Demised Premises for its
      occupancy, provided that such work does not interfere with the timely completion
      of Landlord’s Work. Such entry shall be on all the terms of this Lease
      applicable during the Term other than the payment of Base Rent. 

    

    2.05.
      If
      Landlord is unable to give Tenant possession of the Demised Premises by August
      15, 2006, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for failure to give
      possession and the validity of this Lease shall not be impaired, nor shall
      the
      same be construed to extend the Term, but the Commencement Date shall be the
      date when Landlord shall have given Tenant notice that the Demised Premises
      are
      ready for occupancy. If Landlord gives Tenant possession of the Demised Premises
      after August 15, 2006, and provided that such delay is not caused by Tenant’s
      failure to promptly submit and/or approve plans and specifications for
      Landlord’s Work or Tenant’s Work (if any) or by Tenant’s selection of a
      non-Building standard item that is not immediately available, then the Rent
      Commencement Date shall be extended by two (2) additional days for each day
      beyond August 15, 2006 that Landlord’s Work is not substantially completed as
      defined in Section 2.03.

    2.06.
      Tenant may renew this Lease for one additional term of five (5) years (“Renewal
      Term”), to commence upon the expiration of the Term, provided that Tenant is not
      in default hereunder on the expiration date of the Term, or on the date that
      Tenant shall give notice of its election to renew this Lease. Tenant shall
      exercise the renewal option by giving Landlord written notice of its election
      to
      do so at least nine (9) months before the Term expires. The Renewal Term shall
      be upon the same terms and conditions provided in this Lease, except for (i)
      Base Rent, which shall be ninety-five (95%) percent of fair market value for
      the
      first Lease Year of the Renewal Term, but in no event less than the Base Rent
      payable by Tenant in the last year of the Term, with annual increases of $1.00
      per R.S.F. for each remaining year of the Renewal Term and (ii) the Base Year
      for Taxes and the Base Year for Operating Expenses, which shall be readjusted
      as
      set forth in the Lease Summary. If the parties cannot agree upon fair market
      value, it shall be determined by two (2) independent brokers, one chosen by
      Tenant and one chosen by Landlord, provided that neither broker has represented
      Tenant or Landlord in the preceding two years. In the event that such brokers
      shall be unable to agree on fair market value, they shall choose a third broker
      who, together with the other two brokers, shall jointly determine fair market
      value.

    

    2.07.
      Tenant shall have the one-time option to terminate this Lease upon the
      expiration of the fifth Lease Year, by (i) giving Landlord written notice
      thereof not less than nine (9) months prior to the termination date and (ii)
      paying to Landlord with its written notice the sum of $28,126.00. This payment
      represents the agreed upon liquidated damages for early termination of this
      Lease. Tenant shall not have the right to exercise this option if it is in
      default under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period at the
      time that the required written notice is given by Tenant, or at any time
      thereafter prior to the termination date.

      3. BASE RENT

     

    3.01.
      The
“Rent Commencement Date” shall be the date specified in the Lease Summary.
      During the Term, commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay
      to
Landlord
      Base Rent for each Lease Year at the rate specified in the Lease Summary,
      without notice, demand, abatement, set off or counterclaim, at the office of
      Landlord indicated above, or at such other place as Landlord may designate
      in
      writing, in equal monthly installments in advance on the first day of each
      month, except the first month’s installment of Base Rent shall be payable upon
      the execution of this Lease. If the Rent Commencement Date shall occur on a
      day
      other than the first day of a calendar month, the Base Rent shall be prorated
      for the period from the Rent Commencement Date to the last day of such calendar
      month.

    3.02.
      Beginning on the Commencement Date, Landlord will pay the base rent and
      additional rent for the remaining term of Tenant’s lease (“Stub Rent”) at 1960
      Bronson Road, Fairfield, CT, which lease expires on December 31, 2006. Prior
      to
      the Commencement Date, Tenant shall substantiate the Stub Rent by giving
      Landlord copies of its lease and recent rent bills. In no event shall Landlord’s
      liability for Stub Rent exceed $84,375.00. Such payments shall be made from
      an
      escrow account created on or before the Commencement Date. If the Stub Rent
      on
      the Commencement Date is for a period of less than six (6) months, then in
      addition to paying the Stub Rent, Landlord also shall give Tenant a credit
      for
      the amount of Stub Rent representing the difference between the Stub Rent owing
      on the Commencement Date and six months’ Stub Rent, which credit shall be
      applied against the Base Rent due under this Lease. In no event shall Landlord
      be responsible for more than six (6) months of Tenant’s Stub Rent. Landlord
      shall indemnify Tenant for any damages, claims, charges and expenses, including
      reasonable attorneys’ fees, which may be incurred by or asserted against Tenant
      by reason of Landlord’s breach of the obligations set forth in this Section
      3.02.

    

    ARTICLE
      4. ADDITIONAL RENT 

    

    4.01.
      In
      addition to the Base Rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent
      any
      and all other sums provided in this Lease to be paid by Tenant to Landlord.
      Notwithstanding any terms contained in Article 3 of this Lease, Tenant’s
      obligation to pay Additional Rent shall commence upon the Commencement Date.
      Additional Rent shall be paid without demand, abatement, set off or
      counterclaim, at the office of Landlord indicated above, or at such other place
      as Landlord may designate in writing, within thirty (30) days after Landlord
      shall have rendered and Tenant shall have received a bill on account thereof.
      The nonpayment of Additional Rent shall entitle Landlord to exercise all rights
      and remedies as are provided in the case of nonpayment of Base Rent.

    

    4.02.
      Tenant shall pay that percentage set forth in the Lease Summary as “Tenant’s Tax
      Share”, of the excess, if any, of the Taxes for each Lease Year after the Base
      Year over the Taxes for the Base Year specified in the Lease
      Summary.

     

    4.03.
      Tenant shall pay that percentage set forth in the Lease Summary as “Tenant’s
      Share” of Operating Expenses of the excess, if any, of the Operating Expenses

      Base
      Year specified in the Lease Summary. 

    

    
      
        4.04.
          Landlord
          may elect to bill Tenant monthly on account of Additional Rent by
          reason
          of Taxes and/or Operating Expenses, in amounts equal to 1/12th of Landlord’s
          reasonable estimate of the amount of such Additional Rent to be incurred
          for the
          current Lease Year, and in such event, Tenant shall pay such monthly bills
          within ten (10) business days of receipt. Promptly
          after actual Additional Rent for such Lease Year shall have been determined,
          Landlord shall reconcile the amounts paid on account thereof with the actual
          amount of such Additional Rent and render a statement to Tenant. Upon request,
          Landlord shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense (except if the audit reveals
          overcharges exceeding 5%, Tenant’s reasonable audit expenses shall be reimbursed
          by Landlord), provide Tenant with copies of invoices or other documentary
          evidence in support of Landlord’s statement for Operating Expenses, but in no
          event more than once annually. Any underpayment shall be paid within thirty
          (30)
          days of such statement or Landlord may request Tenant to include such
          underpayment in the Base Rent next due. Any over-payment shall be credited
          against the Rent next due.

      measured electrical demand and consumption 100% of the public utility rate
      schedule then applicable to Landlord for purchase of electricity for the
      Building. Where more than one submeter measures the service to Tenant, the
      service rendered through each submeter may be computed and billed separately
      to
      Tenant. Bills for electric energy shall be rendered at such times as Landlord
      may elect and such amount shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent within
      ten
      (10) business days from the date Landlord invoices Tenant for such charges.
      Upon
      request, but in no event more than once annually, Landlord shall, at Tenant’s

      efforts to supply electricity to the Demised Premises on a direct metered basis.
      Tenant shall pay the cost of installing and maintaining the meter, and the
      costs
      of such service shall be paid directly by Tenant to the public utility provider.
      A default by Tenant in the payment of its electric bills beyond any applicable
      notice by Landlord and cure period under Section 17.01 shall be deemed a default
      by Tenant under this Lease. 

    

    5.03.
      Tenant agrees at all times that its use of electric current shall not exceed
      the
      capacity of existing feeders to the Buildings or the risers or wiring
      installation. Tenant shall make no electrical installations, alterations,
      additions or changes to electrical equipment or appliances without the prior

      with the rules, regulations, terms and conditions applicable to service
      equipment, wiring and requirements of the utility supplying electricity to
      the
      Building. If, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, Tenant’s electrical
      requirements necessitate installation of additional risers, feeders or other
      proper and necessary equipment, and if Landlord has approved such installation,
      the same shall be installed by Landlord at Tenant’s sole expense, which shall be

      Tenant shall use the Demised Premises for the purpose specified in the Lease
      Summary and for no other purpose, and subject to the Rules and Regulations
      attached hereto as Exhibit “C”.

     

    6.02.
      Tenant, its employees, agents, customers and invitees, shall have the
      non-exclusive right for and during the Term to use the Common Areas, as from
      time to time constituted, in common with Landlord and all others to whom
      Landlord has granted or may hereafter grant rights, and their employees, agents,
      customers and invitees, subject to such changes in the Common Areas and to
      such
      reasonable rules and regulations as Landlord may from time to time make or

      tenants and occupants and their respective employees, agents, customers and
      invitees or any others whom the Landlord has granted or may hereafter grant
      rights, to use any part of the Common Areas. Landlord may, at any time and
      from
      time to time, close any Common Areas to make repairs or changes therein, to
      effect construction, repairs or changes within the Building, to preclude a
      claim
      of title by adverse possession, and may do such other acts in and to the Common
      Areas as in its
      sole
      judgment may be desirable to improve the convenience thereof.

      in
      the front of the Building and five (5) located in the parking area in the rear
      of the Building, for the exclusive use by Tenant, its principals, officers
      and
      employees. Such spaces shall be as close as possible to the Building. In
      addition to the reserved parking spaces, Tenant, its employees, agents,
      customers and invitees shall have the non-exclusive right for and during the
      Term to use the parking areas of the Building, as from time to time constituted,

      hereafter grant rights, and their employees, agents, customers and invitees,
      subject to such reasonable rules and regulations as Landlord may from time
      to
      time promulgate. Tenant’s non-exclusive right to use the parking areas of the
      Building will be on a non-reserved, “first come, first served” basis and no
      overnight parking shall be permitted. During the Term, no additional charge
      shall be imposed upon Tenant, its employees, agents, customers and invitees
      for
      their use of the parking areas of the Building. 

    

    6.04.
      Tenant shall keep the Demised Premises free of hazardous substances/materials
      as
      defined by applicable federal, state or local laws and not cause or permit
      the
      Demised Premises to be used to generate, manufacture, refine, transport, treat,
      store, handle, dispose, produce or process hazardous substances/materials except
      in compliance with all applicable federal, state or local laws or regulations.
      Tenant shall be responsible and pay for all costs of segregating, packaging,
      treating, transporting and disposing of all hazardous or infectious waste
      generated by Tenant at or from the Building. All hazardous or infectious waste
      shall be identified, segregated, measured, stored and disposed of by Tenant
      in a
      manner that complies with all federal, state and local
      laws or regulations applicable to hazardous or infectious waste. None of the
      Common Areas may be used by Tenant for the storage or disposal of hazardous
      or
      infectious waste. Landlord represents that on the Commencement Date, the Demised
      Premises will be free of hazardous substances/materials as defined by applicable
      federal, state or local laws.

      Landlord shall furnish hot and cold water in the public lavatories located
      on
      the floor(s) on which the Demised Premises are located, and shall furnish
      separately metered hot and cold water to the Demised Premises if the Demised
      Premises include plumbing fixtures. The installation of the meter shall be
      at
      Landlord’s expense.

     

    7.02.
      Landlord shall furnish heat and cooling to the Demised Premises through a
      separate HVAC system which, prior to installation, shall be subject to
      reasonable review by Tenant’s engineers. Tenant’s consumption of heat shall be
      measured by submeter and calculated by applying to Tenant’s consumption 100% of
      the public utility rate schedule then applicable to Landlord for purchase of
      gas
      for the Building. Bills for heat shall be rendered at such times as Landlord
      may
      elect, and such invoices shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent within
      ten
      (10) business days of Tenant’s receipt thereof. Tenant’s consumption of
      electricity for air conditioning shall be measured and payable as set forth
      in
      Section 5.01.

      Landlord shall furnish electrical energy to the Demised Premises for ordinary
      small office machines, PC’s, lighting fixtures for use during typical business
      hours, a microwave, refrigerator and coffee machines. Tenant shall not connect
      any machines that exceed the capacity of the electrical system serving the
      Demised Premises or dissipate heat in excess of that for which the HVAC system
      is designed, and agrees that the connected load in the Demised Premises shall
      not in the aggregate exceed 5 watts at 120 volts single phase per rentable
      square foot, exclusive of air conditioning, except with the prior written
      consent of Landlord.

    

    7.05.
      It
      is understood that if any services to be provided by Landlord are interrupted
      by
      reason of accident, construction or any other reason (other than the intentional
      misconduct or negligence of Landlord), such interruption shall not be deemed
      a
      constructive eviction, Landlord shall not be liable in damages to Tenant, and
      Tenant shall not be entitled to an abatement of 

    Rent.
      However, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to promptly and diligently
      restore service and take all steps reasonably necessary to minimize the
      deprivation of services to Tenant.

      actions or omissions of Tenant, its employees,

      Demised Premises. Subject to Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses, Landlord
      shall be responsible for Structural repairs within the Demised Premises or
      to
      the Building, except for those necessitated by actions or omissions of Tenant,
      its employees, agents or invitees. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense,
      maintain the HVAC units that solely service the Demised Premises, but Landlord
      shall, at its sole cost and expense, replace such HVAC units, if
      necessary.

      9. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

     

    9.01.
      Tenant may not assign its interest in all or part of the Demised Premises,
      nor
      sublease all or part of the Demised Premises or permit any other person to
      use
      or share any space therein, without the prior written consent of Landlord in
      each case, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant shall pay
      Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable expenses for
      reviewing and documenting any requested assignment or sublease, regardless
      of
      whether Landlord consents thereto. It shall not be deemed unreasonable for
      Landlord to withhold consent to an assignment or sublease of this Lease if
      the
      proposed assignee/subtenant shall have a net worth less than the Tenant or
      if
      the use for which the proposed assignee or subtenant would employ the Demised
      Premises would violate the Building’s Rules and Regulations, or any then
      existing exclusive use provisions contained in other leases for the
      Building.

    

    9.02.
      For
      purposes of this Lease, if Tenant shall be other than a natural person, the
      term
“assignment” shall be deemed to include the sale or other transfer of a majority
      of the shares or other equity
      interests in Tenant, in one transaction or a series of related transactions,
      and
      shall include any event which by operation of law vests this leasehold interest
      in any person other than the person named as Tenant in the Lease Summary.

    

    9.03.
      Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, and provided that
      Tenant is not in default under this Lease, Tenant may, without the consent
      or
      approval of Landlord, assign this Lease or sublease any portion of the Demised
      Premises to an entity that is the result of a merger or consolidation with
      Tenant, or to an entity under the common control of Tenant. Tenant shall give
      Landlord notice of any assignment or sublease covered by this Section 9.03
      and a
      copy of the assignment or sublease agreement.

      No
      consent by Landlord to any assignment or sublease (including an assignment
      or
      sublease permitted by Section 9.03) shall be deemed to release Tenant from
      its
      obligations under this Lease.

    

    9.05.
      Whenever Tenant shall request Landlord’s consent to an assignment of this Lease
      or a subletting of the Demised Premises or a portion thereof, Tenant shall
      be
      deemed to have offered to terminate the Term (or, if less than all
      the
      Demised Premises is to be sublet, then such offer shall be deemed to be for
      the
      termination of this Lease as to the portion of the Demised Premises proposed
      to
      be sublet). At any time within thirty (30) days after Tenant shall have made
      such request and furnished to Landlord all information regarding the proposed
      transaction and the proposed assignee or subtenant as Landlord reasonably
      requests, including all consideration to be paid in connection therewith,
      Landlord may elect, by giving notice to Tenant, to terminate the Term or to
      terminate this Lease as to that portion of the Demised Premises to be sublet,
      as
      the case may be, effective on the date on which such assignment or sublease
      was
      to become effective. In case of a partial termination, the expense of lawfully
      dividing the space shall be borne by Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
      Landlord shall not have the right to terminate the Lease if Tenant withdraws
      its
      request for Landlord’s consent to a proposed assignment or sublease by written
      notice to Landlord within five (5) business days of Landlord’s denial of such
      request.

    

    9.06.
      Tenant shall indemnify Landlord from and against any claim brought by any
      broker, or by any assignee or subtenant, in any such transaction proposed by
      Tenant. 

    

    9.07.
       Tenant
      shall not advertise for the purpose of assigning or subletting the Demised
      Premises.
      Tenant shall not negotiate with, assign or sublease to any other tenant or
      occupant in the Building, or any potential tenant with whom Landlord is
      negotiating or with whom Landlord 

    or
      Landlord’s agent has dealt within the twelve (12) months immediately preceding
      Tenant’s request for Landlord’s consent to any such assignment or
      sublease.

      Exhibit “B” attached hereto. Space planning for a test fit shall be performed by
      Tenant’s architect, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Landlord shall pay for

      bureau and office thereof, to the extent that any such notices, rules, orders,
      regulations, requirements, ordinances or laws at any time issued and enforced

      and
      occupancy thereof, provided, however, that Tenant shall not be responsible
      for
      Structural repairs, unless the Structural repair is necessitated by the actions
      or omissions of Tenant, its employees, agents, or invitees. Landlord shall
      comply with requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 that
      pertain to the Demised Premises and any other laws applicable to the Building

      13. INSURANCE

    

    13.01.
      Tenant agrees to obtain and maintain during the Term commercial general public
      liability and property damage insurance written on an occurrence form, naming
      Landlord as additional insured, insuring against liability thereunder in a
      single limit amount of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000)
      combined single limit, including bodily injury, property damage, personal injury
      and contractual coverage against the liability assumed under this Lease. Such
      insurance shall be written by insurance companies which are licensed and
      authorized to do business in the State of Connecticut and rated no less than
      A-7
      by Bests. In no event shall the limits of said insurance be considered as
      limiting the liability of Tenant under this Lease. Such insurance shall cover
      claims made by or on behalf of any person, firm or corporation and arising
      from,
      related to, or connected with, the conduct and operation of Tenant’s operations
      within or around the Building. Said insurance policy shall also provide that
      at
      least thirty (30) days prior written notice shall be given to Landlord of any
      cancellation, material change or non-renewal thereof. The policy or policies,
      or
      duly executed certificates for the same, together with satisfactory evidence
      of
      payment of premiums thereon, shall be deposited with Landlord prior to the
      Commencement Date, and evidence of renewals thereof shall be deposited with
      Landlord not 

    less
      than
      seven (7) business days prior to the expiration thereof. If Tenant fails to
      comply with such requirement, Landlord may obtain such insurance and keep the
      same in effect, and Tenant shall pay Landlord upon demand as Additional Rent,
      the cost thereof.

     

    13.02.
      Any loss or damage by theft, fire or the elements or any other cause, to the
      contents of the Demised Premises, including all trade fixtures and furniture,
      and all other personal property belonging to Tenant, shall be at the sole risk
      of Tenant. Tenant agrees to obtain and maintain during the Term “All Risk” or
“Special Form” insurance in an amount equal to the replacement cost of all
      furnishings, and trade fixtures, within the Demised Premises, such amounts
      to be
      reviewed at least every three years and revised to reflect then current costs.
      Landlord
      shall be named as additional insured in such policy as respect to Landlord’s
      interest in leasehold improvements. Said policy shall also provide that at
      least
      thirty (30) days prior written notice shall be given to Landlord of any
      cancellation, amendment or non-renewal thereof. Tenant shall provide Landlord
      with a certificate evidencing such coverage, and evidence of renewals thereof
      shall be deposited with Landlord not less than seven (7) business days prior
      to
      the expiration of the terms of such policy. If Tenant fails to comply with
      such
      requirement, Landlord may obtain such insurance and keep the same in effect
      and
      Tenant shall pay Landlord, upon demand, as Additional Rent, the cost thereof.

      Tenant agrees to obtain and maintain during the Term workers’ compensation
      insurance insuring against and satisfying Tenant’s obligations and liabilities
      under the workers’ compensation laws of Connecticut. 

    

    13.04.
      Each party (a “damaged party”) hereby releases the other party (the “other
      party”) from any liability to the damaged party on account of any damage to the
      property of the damaged party arising out of any casualty or other loss included
      within a standard form of “all-risk” insurance even if such damage is the result
      of the fault or negligence of the other party; provided, however, that if the
      damage is covered by an insurance policy actually maintained by the damaged
      party and the release provided by this sentence would invalidate or be in
      conflict with such policy and such policy was purchased by the damaged party
      in
      compliance with the following paragraph, then such release shall be inapplicable
      to the damage covered by such policy.

     

    No
      party
      (the “procuring party”) shall obtain or accept any insurance policy which would
      be invalidated by or would conflict with the release provided for in the prior
      paragraph (a “policy without waiver”) unless a policy which would not be so
      invalidated and would not conflict with such release (a “policy with waiver”)
      (i) is unobtainable and the procuring party has so notified the other party,
      or
      (ii) is obtainable but only at a premium in excess of that payable for a policy
      with waiver and the procuring party has so notified the other party (including
      in its notice a statement of the amount of the additional premium) and the
      other
      party within 30 days of its receipt of such notice fails to offer to pay such
      additional premium (or, if the other party is Tenant, Tenant’s Tax Share
      thereof).

      If
      Tenant shall use the Demised Premises in a manner other than that permitted
      in
      this Lease and as a result Landlord is required to pay an increased premium
      for
      insurance, Tenant will reimburse Landlord for such increase. Landlord agrees
      to
      obtain and maintain throughout the Term such additional insurance against such
      perils and in such amounts as may be reasonably required by prudent owners
      of
      properties similar in type to the Building in Fairfield County, 

    including
      at a minimum insurance against casualty and similar risks in the full
      replacement value of the Building.

      Landlord’s judgment, be required (whether or not the Demised Premises shall have
      been damaged by such fire or other casualty), then in any such event Landlord
      may elect to terminate the Term by giving Tenant notice within 120 days after
      the date of such fire or other casualty.

      casualty in the last twelve (12) months of the Term, Tenant may elect
      to

      date
      of such fire or other casualty. If at any time Landlord has not repaired or
      restored the Demised Premises within 120 days of the date of any fire or other
      casualty, subject to extensions of up to ninety (90) days due to causes beyond
      Landlord’s reasonable control, then Tenant may elect to terminate the Term by
      giving Landlord notice within twenty (20) days after such 120-day period as
      such
      period may have been extended; provided, however, that if Landlord notifies
      Tenant that the anticipated date of completion of such repair and restoration
      will be a date after the aforesaid deadline, then the time for Tenant to
      exercise its right to terminate under this Section 15.03 shall expire twenty
      (20) days after Landlord’s notice is given.

      (i) Tenant shall default in the payment of Rent as and when due hereunder,
      and
      such default shall continue for a period of three (3) business days after
      written notice of such default from Landlord (provided, however, that Landlord
      shall not be obligated to give such notice to Tenant more than twice in any
      Lease Year, and any default in the payment of Rent thereafter shall be deemed
      to
      occur three (3) business days from the date it was due without such notice),
      or
      (ii) Tenant shall default in fulfilling any other obligation, provision,
      condition or covenant of this Lease, and such default shall continue for a
      period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord specifying
      such default, (iii) the Demised Premises shall become vacant or deserted, or
      (iv) any execution or attachment shall be issued against Tenant or any of its
      property whereupon the Demised Premises shall be taken or occupied or attempted
      to be taken or occupied by some one other than Tenant and the same shall not
      be
      bonded or dismissed or discharged as promptly as may be under circumstances
      then, and in any such event, Landlord may give ten (10) business days written
      notice of intention to end the Term, and then upon the expiration of said ten
      (10) business days, the Term shall expire as fully and completely as if that
      day
      were the day definitely fixed herein for the expiration of the Term, and Tenant
      shall quit and surrender the Demised Premises to Landlord, but Tenant shall
      remain liable as hereinafter provided. 

    

    17.02.
      If
      the notices provided in the above paragraph shall have been given and the Term
      shall expire as aforesaid, then Landlord may, pursuant to legal process, if
      any
      be applicable, re-enter the Demised Premises, either by force or otherwise,
      and
      dispossess Tenant and the legal representatives of Tenant, or other occupants
      of
      the Demised Premises, by summary proceeding or otherwise, and remove their
      effects and hold the Demised Premises as if this Lease had not been made.

      case of such default, re-entry, expiration and or dispossess by summary
      proceedings or otherwise, (i) the Rent shall become due thereupon and be paid
      up
      to the time of such reentry, dispossess or expiration, together with such
      expenses as Landlord may incur for legal expenses,
      reasonable attorneys’ fees, brokerage and/or putting the Demised Premises in
      such condition as Landlord may determine is advisable or necessary good order

      may, at its option, be shorter or longer than the period which would otherwise
      have constituted the remainder of the Term of this Lease to such extent as
      Landlord, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, considers advisable and necessary
      to re-let the same; and (iii) Tenant, or its successors, shall also pay
      Landlord, any deficiency between the Rent, and the net amount, if any, of the
      rents collected on account of the lease or leases of the Demised Premises for
      each month of the period which would otherwise have constituted the remainder
      of
      the Term. Any such deficiency shall be paid in monthly installments on the
      first
      day of each calendar month, and any suit brought to collect the amount of the
      deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the rights of Landlord
      to collect the deficiency for any subsequent month by a similar proceeding.

      Whether or not Landlord shall have collected any monthly deficiency as
      aforesaid, Landlord shall be entitled, at its option, to elect to recover from
      Tenant, and in such event Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand in lieu of
      any
      further such deficiency, as liquidated damages,
      a
      sum
      calculated as follows: the excess, if any, of (i) the aggregate Rent which
      would
      have been payable by Tenant under this Lease (conclusively presuming the
      Additional Rent to be at the same rate as was payable for the twelve (12) months
      immediately preceding such re-entry by Landlord) for the period commencing
      with
      the last date to which Rent was paid (less any such deficiency collected) and
      ending on the date set for the expiration of the Term had this Lease not been
      terminated or Landlord not re-entered the Demised Premises, over (ii) the
      aggregate rental value of the Demised Premises for the same period, both
      discounted to their present value at 4% per annum. Nothing herein shall be
      construed as limiting the recovery by Landlord against Tenant of any sum or
      damages to which, in addition to the deficiency or damages described above,
      Landlord may be entitled by reason of any default of Tenant under this Lease
      prior to such re-entry. Landlord shall make reasonable efforts to mitigate
      its
      damages upon a default by Tenant under this Lease.

    

    17.05.
      Landlord, at its option, may make such alterations in the Demised Premises
      as in
      Landlord’s judgment are advisable or necessary for the purpose of re-letting the
      Demised Premises, and the making of such alterations shall not operate or be
      construed to release Tenant from any liability hereunder. In the event of a
      breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the covenants or provisions
      hereof, Landlord shall have the right of injunction and the right to invoke
      any
      remedy allowed at law or in equity as if re-entry, summary proceedings and
      other
      remedies were not herein provided for. Mention in this Lease of any particular
      remedy shall not preclude Landlord from any other remedy in law or equity.
      Tenant hereby expressly waives any
      and
      all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws in
      the
      event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed, for
      any

      Tenant hereunder effective on the date specified by Landlord in a written notice
      to Tenant. If a portion of the Building other than the Demised Premises that

      taken materially affects Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Demised Premises,
      Tenant also shall have the right to elect to terminate the Term by thirty (30)
      days written notice to Landlord of such termination. If Landlord shall not
      so

      received, restore the Building to a useable condition and as nearly as

      substantially their condition at the Commencement Date. Tenant’s obligation to
      restore shall include any requirements imposed by Landlord’s consent to Tenant’s

      at
      the expense of Tenant, shall be removed by Tenant and any damage caused by
      such
      removal shall be repaired by Tenant. Any property of Tenant which remains in

      or grant access to the Building by reason of repairs, replacements, maintenance,

      alterations, or capital improvements temporarily exclude the Tenant from the
      Demised Premises, Tenant nevertheless shall be obligated to pay rent and to
      perform all of the covenants hereunder. Tenant expressly waives any claims

      or the making of capital improvements, or permanently through the remainder

      Tenant’s part to be performed with the same force and effect as said lessor,

      mortgagee or purchaser, assignee or lessee, as Landlord, for the remaining
      Term

    25.01.
      Tenant shall make no change, alteration, addition, or improvement (collectively,
      “Alterations”) in or to the Demised Premises without Landlord’s consent. If the
      Alterations are not Structural in nature, do not affect the Building systems,
      Common Areas or the appearance of the Building, Landlord’s consent shall not be
      unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

    

    25.02.
      Prior to making any Alteration, Tenant shall submit to Landlord for approval
      detailed plans and specifications; obtain Landlord’s approval of the contractors
      to be engaged; obtain all permits required from governmental authority; shall
      provide (and furnish Landlord certificates evidencing) worker’s compensation,
      builder’s risk, comprehensive public liability coverage and insurance covering
      such other matters as Landlord may require, naming Landlord and any lender
      as
      additional insureds; and provide Landlord such bond or other security for the
      payment of the contractors and materialsmen as Landlord shall require. Tenant
      shall cause all work to be performed in a good and workmanlike manner, strictly
      in accordance with the requirements of governmental authorities and insurance
      underwriters recommendations, using

    only
      first quality, new materials. The Alterations shall at all times be kept free
      of
      mechanic’s liens and security interests. At the completion of the work, Tenant
      shall furnish Landlord “as built” plans, and any necessary certificates,
      approvals and other necessary “sign offs” from governmental authorities.

      the
      parties hereto, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors and/or
      assigns (except to the extent otherwise provided in this Lease). However, the
      obligations of Landlord under this Lease shall not be binding upon Landlord
      herein named with respect to any period subsequent to the transfer of its
      interest in the Building, and in the event of such transfer, said obligations
      shall thereafter be binding upon transferee, but only with respect to
      obligations arising during the period commencing with such transfer and ending
      with a subsequent transfer within the meaning of this Article, and any such
      transferee, by accepting such interest, shall be deemed to have assumed such
      obligations except only as may be expressly otherwise provided elsewhere in
      this
      Lease.

      29. BROKER

      

    29.01.
      The parties agree that the Broker, if any, specified in the Lease
      Summary (collectively, the
      “Broker”) is the Broker that brought about this Lease, and Landlord shall pay
      the commission due pursuant to separate agreement. Tenant represents that it
      dealt with no Broker other than the
      Broker. Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any damages,
      costs and expenses suffered by Landlord by reason of any breach of the foregoing
      representation. 

    

    ARTICLE
      30. SECURITY DEPOSIT

     

    30.01.
      The sum specified in the Lease Summary has been deposited by Tenant with
      Landlord as security (the “Security Deposit”) for the full and faithful
      performance by Tenant of each
      and
      every term, provision, covenant and conditions of the Lease. If Tenant defaults
      in respect of any of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this
      Lease then Landlord may, but shall not be required to, use, apply or retain
      the
      whole or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent in default
      or for any other sum which Landlord may expend by reason of Tenant’s default,
      including any damages as set forth in Section 17.03 or deficiency in Rent in
      the
      re-letting of the Demised Premises. If Landlord shall so use, apply or retain
      the whole or any part of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall upon demand
      immediately deposit with Landlord a sum equal to the amount so used, applied
      or
      retained in order to restore the Security Deposit to its original
      amount.

    

    30.02.
      If
      Tenant fully and faithfully performs all the terms, provisions, covenants and
      conditions of this Lease, then the Security Deposit, or balance thereof, shall
      be returned to Tenant within fifteen (15) business days after the removal of
      Tenant and surrender of possession of the Demised Premises to Landlord.

    

    30.03.
      The Security Deposit shall be held in an interest-bearing account in a
      FDIC-insured bank in the State of New York. Interest earned on the Security
      Deposit, after Landlord deducts therefrom one percent (1%) of the Security
      Deposit per annum for administration expenses, shall be deemed additional
      Security Deposit, and shall be applied or disbursed to Tenant in the same manner
      as the Security Deposit. 

    

    30.04.
      In
      the event of a sale or lease of the Building, Landlord shall have the right
      to
      transfer the Security Deposit to the purchaser or lessee and solely in such
      event, Landlord shall thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability for
      the
      return of the Security Deposit and Tenant shall look solely to the new Landlord
      for the return thereof.

    31.01.
      Whenever a dispute shall arise under this Lease, either party may elect that
      the
      dispute be settled by arbitration. Such election by either party shall be made
      in a written notice to that effect to either party, specifying the nature of
      the
      dispute. The arbitration shall be held in Fairfield County, State of
      Connecticut, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
      Arbitration Association or any successor thereto. The decision of the
      arbitrator(s) shall be in writing and shall be final, conclusive and binding
      upon the parties, and a judgment may be obtained thereon in any court having
      jurisdiction. In rendering the decision and awards the arbitrator(s) shall
      not
      vary from the provisions of this Lease, and may not award damages other than
      actual damages. The cost of the arbitration shall be borne by the party as
      against whom the determination and/or award is more adverse, and the
      arbitrator(s) shall be asked to specify such party. 

     

    31.02.
      If
      a matter to be determined by arbitration might affect the liability of an
      insurer 

    under
      any
      of the policies of insurance carried by a party and the insured party so
      notifies the other, then, unless such insurer gives its written consent to
      the
      arbitration, the dispute shall not 

    be
      determined by arbitration and the parties shall be left to such other remedies
      as they may have. 

     

    31.03.
      If
      the dispute to be arbitrated concerns the necessity of paying a sum of
      money,
      the duty to make any repair (unless,
      in the case of repairs only, such repair is within the Demised Premises, and
      does not affect the Building systems, Structural parts of the Building, or
      the
      exterior or appearance of the Building) or the duty to comply with any
      applicable law or requirement under Section 10.01, then Tenant shall first
      comply with Landlord’s notice to pay said amount, make said repair or comply
      with such requirement before the commencement of such arbitration. 

     

    ARTICLE
      32. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL

    

    32.01.
      Landlord and Tenant waive the right to a trial by jury in any action,
      counterclaim, proceeding or litigation arising out of, under or in connection
      with, or related to, the subject matter of this lease. This waiver is knowingly,
      intentionally, and voluntarily made by the parties and each acknowledges that
      the other party nor any person acting on behalf of the other party has made
      any
      representations of fact to induce this waiver of trial by jury or in any way
      to
      modify or nullify its effect. The parties acknowledge that each has been
      represented (or has had the opportunity to be represented) in the signing of
      this Lease and in the making of this waiver by independent legal counsel,
      selected of its own free will, and that it has had the opportunity to discuss
      this waiver with counsel. The parties further acknowledge that they have read
      and understands the meaning and ramifications of this waiver provision.

    

    ARTICLE
      33. ADDITIONAL SPACE

    

    33.01.
      Provided that Tenant is not in default under any terms of this Lease at the
      time
      of the exercise of the following right or at the time of the commencement of
      the
      lease of such additional space, if space on the first floor of the Building
      is
      or becomes available, Landlord will first offer the space to Tenant in writing,
      upon the terms and conditions said space would be leased to third parties.
      Tenant shall have thirty (30) days to respond to such written offer. In the
      event Tenant does not agree to lease such space within such thirty (30) day
      period, Landlord shall be free to market such space to third parties. If
      Landlord has granted a right of first offer to lease additional space on the
      first floor of the Building to another tenant or granted to another first floor
      tenant an option to renew its lease (“Superior Tenant”), and such Superior
      Tenant fails to exercise its option on the terms set forth in its lease with
      Landlord, then such Superior Tenant’s right of first offer, or right of renewal,
      as the case may be, shall be subordinate to Tenant’s right of first offer, and
      Landlord shall offer the space to Tenant on the terms provided
      herein.

    34.01.
      This Lease contains the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes
      all
      prior oral and written agreements between them. Tenant acknowledges that it
      has
      not relied upon any statement, representation, written or oral promise,
      undertaking or other matter except as may be expressly set forth in this Lease.
      This Lease may not be modified except by an agreement in writing signed by
      the
      party against whom enforcement of such modification is sought. All personal
      pronouns used in this Lease shall include the other genders, whether used in
      the
      masculine, feminine or neuter gender, and the singular shall include the plural
      and vice versa, whenever the context requires. References in this Lease to
      any
      of the “terms”, “provisions”, “covenants”, “agreements” or “conditions” hereof
      shall be deemed to be a reference to all such phrases. This Lease shall be
      governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of Connecticut, without
      recourse to the State of Connecticut’s conflicts of law provisions.

     

    34.02.
      Tenant shall not record this Lease. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon the request
      of either, jointly execute, acknowledge and record a notice of this Lease in
      accordance with Section 47-19 of the Connecticut General Statutes. If requested
      by Tenant, Tenant shall prepare and record any such notice at its sole cost
      and
      expense and shall, upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease
      and
      without charge to Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a
      termination of any such notice in recordable form. Tenant hereby irrevocably
      appoints Landlord as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to
      execute, acknowledge and deliver such termination for and on behalf of Tenant
      in
      the event that Tenant fails to do so within ten (10) business days of Landlord’s
      request accompanied by the form of such termination.

    

    34.03.
      No
      offer of surrender of the Demised Premises, by delivery to Landlord or its
      agent
      of keys or otherwise, will be binding on Landlord unless expressly accepted
      by
      Landlord in writing or unless such writing is not required pursuant to the
      terms
      of this Lease. No receipt of money by Landlord after the Term shall reinstate,
      continue or extend the Term. No waiver of any provision of this Lease by either
      party will be deemed to imply or constitute a further waiver by such party
      of
      the same or any other provision hereof. The rights and remedies of the parties
      are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive; nor will the use of one
      be
      taken to preclude the use of another; provided, however, that any matter
      determined in arbitration under this Lease shall be final.

      No
      payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Rent shall
      be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest Rent, nor shall any
      endorsement or statement of any check or any letter accompanying any check
      or
      payment of Rent be deemed an 

    accord
      and satisfaction or modification of Tenant’s obligation hereunder, or a
      limitation on Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or pursue any
      other remedy in this Lease.

      This Lease may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall
      be
