In any action or proceeding wherein Landlord and Tenant are parties, a schedule or “make up” of rates for the Building or the Premises issued by the New York Fire Insurance Rating Organization, or other body fixing such fire insurance rates, shall be conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated and of the several items and charges in the fire insurance rates then applicable to the Premises. Any work or installations made or performed by or on behalf of Tenant or any person claiming through or under Tenant pursuant to this Article shall be made in conformity with, and subject to the provisions of, Article 3 hereof.

B.Floor Load. Tenant shall not place a load upon any floor of the Premises exceeding the floor load per square foot area that such floor was designed to carry and which is allowed by law. Landlord reserves the right to reasonably prescribe the weight and position of all safes, business machines and heavy equipment and installations such that the same are placed and maintained by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, in settings sufficient in Landlord’s reasonable judgment to absorb and prevent vibration, noise and annoyance- Tenant shall not move any safe, heavy machinery, heavy equipment, freight, bulky matter or fixtures into or out of the Building without Landlord’s prior consent, which prior consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and payment to Landlord of Landlord’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs in connection therewith. If such safe, machinery, equipment, freight, bulky matter or fixtures requires special handling, Tenant agrees to employ only persons holding a Master Rigger’s License to do said work, and that all work in connection therewith shall comply with the Administrative Code of the City of New York and all other Requirements of Law applicable thereto, and shall be done during such hours as Landlord may designate. Tenant shall be solely and exclusively responsible for the reviewing of the floor load, elevator capacity and any other engineering issues with regard to the installation and removal of any and all vaults or safes to be brought into or removed from the Premises by Tenant or Tenant’s agents. In the event that any reinforcement of the floor is deemed necessary, such reinforcement and any and all costs and expenses in connection therewith shall be at the sole and exclusive cost and expense of Tenant, and shall only be installed with the prior written consent of Landlord, which prior consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Lease. Tenant at its sole and exclusive cost and expense, agrees to reimburse Landlord for any and all third party costs and expense which Landlord incurs in connection with structural enhancements or other work performed in connection with any safe, vault, floor load or elevator issues concerning the subject matter of this paragraph. Tenant acknowledges and agrees the Landlord has made no representations regarding the floor load of the Premises or the weight load of any elevator in the Building and in the event the floor load is unable to carry the weight of any safes, heavy machinery or equipment which Tenant desires to install in the Premises, or the elevator is unable to carry the weight load of any of the same, such shall not affect the terms of this Lease and Landlord shall have no responsibility or liability on connection therewith.

7.SUBORDINATION.

A.Subordination. This Lease is subject and subordinate to each and every ground or underlying lease of the Real Property or the Building existing or hereafter made by Landlord (collectively, the “Superior Leases”) and to each and every trust indenture and mortgage (collectively the “Mortgages”) which may now or hereafter affect the Real Property, the Building or any such Superior Lease and the leasehold interest created thereby, and to all renewals, extensions, supplements, amendments, modifications, consolidations, and replacements thereof or thereto, substitutions therefor and advances made thereunder and to all matters of title or record which may now or hereafter affect the Real Property, the Building or the Premises. This clause shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required to make the interest of any lessor under a Superior Lease, or trustee or mortgagee of a Mortgage superior to the interest of Tenant hereunder. In confirmation of such subordination, however, Tenant shall execute promptly any certificate that Landlord may request. If the date of expiration of any Superior Lease shall be the same day as the Expiration Date, the Term shall end and expire twelve (12) hours prior to the expiration of the Superior Lease. Tenant covenants and agrees that, except as expressly provided herein, Tenant shall not knowingly do anything that would constitute a default under any Superior Lease or Mortgage, or omit to do anything that Tenant is obligated to do under the terms of this Lease so as to cause Landlord to be in default under any of the foregoing. If, in connection with the financing of the Real Property, the Building or the interest of the lessee under any Superior Lease, any lending institution shall request reasonable modifications of this Lease, provided such modifications do not materially increase the obligations or materially and adversely affect the rights of Tenant under this Lease, Tenant covenants to make such modifications. After the Commencement Date, Landlord shall not record any agreement against the record of the Building which would prohibit Tenant from operating in the Premises for the Permitted Use.

B.Attornment. If at any time prior to the expiration of the Term, any Mortgage shall be foreclosed or any Superior Lease shall terminate or be terminated for any reason, Tenant agrees, at the election and upon demand of any owner of the Real Property or the Building, or the lessor under any such Superior Lease, or of any mortgagee in possession of the Real Property or the Building, to attorn, from time to time, to any such owner, lessor or mortgagee, upon the then executory terms and conditions of this Lease, for the remainder of the term originally demised in this Lease, provided that such owner, lessor or mortgagee, as the case may be, or receiver caused to be appointed by any of the foregoing, shall not then be entitled to possession of the Premises. The provisions of this subsection B shall inure to the benefit of any such owner, lessor or mortgagee, shall apply notwithstanding that, as a matter of law, this Lease may terminate upon the termination of any such Superior Lease, and shall be self-operative upon any such demand, and no further instrument shall be required to give effect to said provisions. Tenant, however, upon demand of any such owner, lessor or mortgagee, agrees to execute, from time to time, instruments in confirmation of the foregoing provisions of this subsection B, satisfactory to any such owner, lessor or mortgagee, acknowledging such attornment and setting forth the terms and conditions of its tenancy. Nothing contained in this subsection B shall be construed to impair any right otherwise exercisable by any such owner, lessor or mortgagee.

8.RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant and Tenant’s employees, agents, visitors and licensees shall observe faithfully, and comply strictly with, the Rules and Regulations annexed hereto and made a part hereof as Schedule A and such other and further reasonable Rules and Regulations as Landlord or Landlord’s agents may from time to time adopt (collectively, the “Rules and Regulations”) on such notice to be given as Landlord may elect. Nothing in this Lease contained shall be construed to impose upon Landlord any duty or obligation to enforce the Rules and Regulations or terms, covenants or conditions in any other lease, against any other tenant and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for violation of the same by any other tenant, its employees, agents, visitors or licensees. Landlord agrees to enforce the Rules and Regulations in a uniform non-discriminatory manner throughout the Building. In the event of a conflict between the Rules and Regulations and the provisions of this Lease, the provision of this Lease shall govern. Landlord agrees that it shall not adopt any amendment to the Rules and Regulations after the Commencement Date which would materially reduce Tenant’s rights or materially increase Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.

9.INSURANCE.

A.Liability Insurance. Tenant shall obtain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect during the Term, a policy of commercial general liability insurance (including, without limitation, insurance covering Tenant’s contractual liability under this Lease), under which Tenant is named as the insured, and Landlord, Landlord’s managing agent, the present and any future mortgagee of the Real Property or the Building and/or such other designees specified by Landlord from time to time, are named as additional insureds. Such policy, to the extent obtainable, shall contain a provision that no act or omission of Tenant shall affect or limit the obligation of the insurance company to pay the amount of any loss sustained. In the event that the insurance company issuing such policy cancels or refuses to renew the policy, or changes such policy in any material way including without limitation, the nature or extent of the coverage provided by such policy, Tenant covenants to provide Landlord at least thirty (30) days written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, prior to such event, which notice shall contain the policy number and the names of the insureds and policy holder. The minimum limits of liability shall be a combined single limit with respect to each occurrence in an amount of not less than $1,000,000 for injury (or death) and damage to property with a $2,000,000 per location / general aggregate, and a $2,000,000 products and completed operations aggregate. Such insurance shall be inclusive of any defense costs. Such coverage may be maintained by a policy providing coverage over and above applicable underlying Commercial General Liability with coverage not more restrictive than the underlying liability with limits acceptable to Landlord, but at a minimum $5,000,000 per occurrence and in the aggregate. Tenant shall also maintain at its own expense during the Term a policy of workers’ compensation insurance providing statutory benefits for Tenant’s employees and employer’s liability. Tenant shall provide to Landlord upon execution of this Lease and at least thirty (30) days prior to the termination of any existing policy, a certificate evidencing the effectiveness of the insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder which shall include the named insured, additional insured, carrier, policy number, limits of liability, effective date, the name of the insurance agent and its telephone number. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a complete copy of any such policy upon written request of Landlord. Tenant shall have no right to obtain any of the insurance required hereunder pursuant to a blanket policy covering other properties unless the blanket policy contains an endorsement that names Landlord, Landlord’s managing agent and/or designees specified by Landlord from time to time, as additional insureds, references the Premises, and guarantees a minimum limit available for the Premises equal to the amount of insurance required to be maintained hereunder. Each policy required hereunder shall contain a clause that the policy and the coverage evidenced thereby shall be primary with respect to any policies carried by Landlord, and that any coverage carried by Landlord shall be excess insurance. The limits of the insurance required under this subsection shall not limit the liability of Tenant under this Lease. All insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease shall be effected under valid and enforceable policies issued by reputable and independent insurers permitted to do business in the State of New York, and rated in Bests Insurance Guide, or any successor thereto (or if there be none, an organization having a national reputation) as having a general policyholder rating of “A-” and a financial rating of at least “10”. In the event that Tenant fails to continuously maintain insurance as required by this subsection, Landlord may, at its option and without relieving Tenant of any obligation hereunder„ upon three (3) business days prior written notice to Tenant order such insurance and pay for the same at the expense of Tenant. In such event, Tenant shall repay the amount expended by Landlord, with interest thereon, within five (5) business days of Landlord’s written demand therefor.

B.All-Risk Insurance.    (i) Tenant shall also maintain at its own expense during the Term a policy against fire and other casualty on an “all risk” form covering all Alterations, construction and other improvements installed within the Premises, installed by or on behalf of Tenant (other than Landlord’s Initial Construction), and on all furniture, fixtures, equipment, personal property and inventory of Tenant located in the Premises and any property in the care, custody and control of Tenant (fixed or otherwise) sufficient to provide 100% full replacement value of such items, which policy shall otherwise comply with the provisions of subsections A and C of this Article 9.

(ii)Tenant shall maintain business interruption insurance using the insurance service office standard form (or equivalent) on all “all risk” basis to reimburse Tenant for its loss of profits and expenses

as a result of an interruption of business, which such coverage shall be purchased and maintained at a limit adequate to protect not less than six (6) months of profits and expenses.

C.Waiver of Subrogation. The parties hereto shall procure an appropriate clause in, or endorsement on, any “all-risk” property insurance covering the Premises and the Building, including its respective Alterations, construction and other improvements as well as personal property, fixtures, furniture, inventory and equipment located thereon or therein, pursuant to which the insurance companies waive subrogation or consent to a waiver of right of recovery, and each party hereby agrees that it will not make any claim against or seek to recover from the other or the partners, directors, officers, shareholders or employees of such party for any loss or damage to its property or the property of others resulting from fire or other hazards covered by such “all-risk” property insurance policies to the extent that such loss or damage is actually recoverable under such policies exclusive of any deductibles. Such waiver will not apply should any loss or damage result from one of the parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. If the payment of an additional premium is required for the inclusion of such waiver of subrogation provision, each party shall advise the other of the amount of any such additional premiums and the other party shall pay the same. It is expressly understood and agreed that Landlord will not carry insurance on the Alterations, construction and other improvements installed within the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant, other than Landlord’s Initial Construction, or on Tenant’s fixtures, furnishings, equipment, personal property or inventory located in the Premises or insurance against interruption of Tenant’s business.

10.DESTRUCTION OF THE PREMISES; PROPERTY LOSS OR DAMAGE.

A.Repair of Damage. If the Premises or any part thereof shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall, upon Tenant’s knowledge thereof, give immediate notice to Landlord and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect except as hereinafter set forth. If the Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, then the Premises shall be repaired and restored to its condition preceding the damage in accordance with the provisions of this Article 10. Whenever in this Article 10 reference is made to restoration of the Premises: (i) Tenant’s obligation shall be as to all property within the Premises including Tenant’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and other personal property, any and all Alterations, construction or other improvements made to the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant and any other leasehold improvements existing in the Premises on the Commencement Date (other than Landlord’s Initial Construction), all of which shall be restored and replaced at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and (ii) Landlord’s obligation, if any, shall be as to the shell, which constitutes the structure of the Building and the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, air-conditioning and other building-wide systems up to the point of connection into the Premises. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant, and subject to the express terms of Article 10(B)(b) below, Tenant shall not be entitled to terminate this Lease, if such repairs and restoration are not in fact completed within Landlord’s estimated time period, so long as Landlord shall have proceeded with reasonable due diligence. The Rent until such repairs shall be made shall be reduced in the proportion which the area of the part of the Premises which is not usable by Tenant bears to the total area of the Premises; provided, however, should Tenant reoccupy a portion of the Premises for the conduct of its business prior to the date such repairs are made, the Rent shall be reinstated with respect to such reoccupied portion of the Premises and shall be payable by Tenant from the date of such occupancy. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, in no event shall the Rent be reduced for a period in excess of two (2) months following the date Landlord substantially completes its repair and restoration obligations hereunder.

B.Casualty Termination Option.    (a) Anything in subsection A of this Article 10 to the contrary notwithstanding, if the Premises are totally damaged or are rendered wholly untenantable, or if the Building shall be so damaged by fire or other casualty that, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, either substantial alteration, demolition or reconstruction of the Building shall be required (whether or not the Premises shall have been damaged or rendered untenantable), or if the Building, after its proposed repair, alteration or restoration, shall not be economically viable as an office building, then in any of such events, Landlord, at Landlord’s option, may, not later than ninety (90) days following the damage, give Tenant a notice in writing terminating this Lease. In addition: (i) if any material damage shall occur to the Premises or the Building during the last two (2) years of the Term, Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon not

less than sixty (60) days prior written notice to Tenant and (ii) Landlord shall not be obligated to repair or restore the Premises or the Building if a holder of a mortgage or underlying leasehold applies proceeds of insurance to the loan or lease payment balance, and the remaining proceeds, if any, available to Landlord are insufficient to pay for such repair or restoration. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Article 10, the Term shall expire upon the date set forth in such notice, and Tenant shall vacate the Premises and surrender the same to Landlord without prejudice however, to Landlord’s rights and remedies against Tenant under this Lease in effect prior to such termination and any Rent owing shall be paid up to such date and any payments of Rent made by Tenant which were on account of any period subsequent to such date shall be returned to Tenant. Upon the termination of this Lease under the conditions provided for in the preceding sentence, Tenant’s liability for Rent thereafter accruing shall cease as of the day following such damage.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 10, in the event that: (i) all of the Premises or a material portion of the Building is rendered wholly untenantable or inaccessible due to fire or other casualty and (ii) Tenant is unable and in fact does not use or occupy any portion of the Premises as a result of such fire or casualty, and (iii) Landlord does not elect to terminate the Lease pursuant to Landlord’s termination right as provided above, and (iv) in Landlord’s sole determination Landlord elects to rebuild and restore same and does not elect to termination this Lease in accordance with the provisions of this Article 10, then Landlord shall notify Tenant, within sixty (60) days of the casualty, of Landlord’s good faith estimate of the period necessary for Landlord to restore the core and shell of the Premises after the receipt of insurance proceeds (the “Casualty Estimate Notice”). In the event that the time estimated by Landlord to substantially restore the core and shell of the Premises set forth in the Casualty Estimate Notice is greater than two hundred and seventy (270) days after the receipt of insurance proceeds (or such longer period if Landlord is delayed through Force Majeure Causes or other similar causes beyond Landlord’s control) and provided that such casualty was in no way the fault or in no way caused by Tenant, Tenant shall have the option, which must be exercised within thirty (30) days of the date the Casualty Estimate Notice is delivered to Tenant, to elect by written notice to Landlord to terminate this Lease on a date not less than fifteen (15) nor more than thirty (30) days after the date the Casualty Estimate Notice is delivered to Tenant, time being of the essence. Provided that Tenant has not timely and properly exercised its right to terminate this Lease as set forth in this Subsection 10(13)(b) of this Article 10, in the event Landlord has not Substantially Completed the restoration of the core and shell of the Premises within the two hundred and seventy (270) day period as set forth above (or such longer period if Landlord is delayed through Force Majeure Causes or other similar causes beyond Landlord’s control), then, and in such event, Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease upon giving written notice to Landlord within ten (10) business days after the end of such two hundred and seventy (270) day period, and if Landlord has not delivered Tenant possession of the Premises restored as required hereunder on the expiration of such ten (10) business day period, the Term of this Lease shall expire and Tenant shall vacate the Premises and surrender same to Landlord, however, any and all Rent and additional Rent due and owing under the Lease up to and including the date which Tenant actually vacates and surrenders the Premises shall be immediately paid to Landlord upon such vacating of the Premises and shall be a condition to such termination, and any payments of Rent which were made by Tenant which were on account of any period subsequent to the date of such casualty shall be returned to Tenant.

C.Repair Delays. Landlord shall not be liable for reasonable delays which may arise by reason of the claim adjustment with any insurance company on the part of Landlord and/or Tenant, and for reasonable delays on account of “labor troubles”, Force Majeure Causes, or any other cause beyond Landlord’s control.

D.Provision Controlling. The parties agree that this Article 10 constitutes an expressagreement governing any case of damage or destruction of the Premises or the Building by fire or other casualty, and that Section 227 of the Real Properly Law of the State of New York, which provides for such contingency in the absence of an express agreement, and any other law of like import now or hereafter in force shall have no application in any such case.

E.Property Loss or Damage. Any Building employee to whom any property shall be entrusted by or on behalf of Tenant shall be deemed to be acting as Tenant’s agent with respect to such property and neither Landlord nor its agents shall be liable for any damage to property of Tenant or of others entrusted to employees of the Building, nor for the loss of or damage to any property of Tenant by theft or otherwise. Neither Landlord nor its agents shall be liable for any injury or damage to persons or property or interruption of Tenant’s business resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas, electricity, water, rain or snow or leaks from any part of the Building or from the pipes, appliances or plumbing works or from the roof, street or subsurface or from any other place or by dampness or by any other cause of whatsoever nature; nor shall Landlord or its agents be liable for any such damage caused by other tenants or persons in the Building or caused by construction of any private, public or quasi-public work; nor shall Landlord be liable for any latent defect in the Premises or in the Building. Anything in this Article 10 to the contrary notwithstanding, nothing in this Lease shall be construed to relieve Landlord from responsibility directly to Tenant for any loss or damage caused directly to Tenant wholly or in part by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. Nothing in the foregoing sentence shall affect any right of Landlord to the indemnity from Tenant to which Landlord may be entitled under Article 37 hereof in order to recoup for payments made to compensate for losses of third parties.

11.CONDEMNATION.

A.Condemnation. If the whole of the Real Property, the Building or the Premises shall be acquired or condemned for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, this Lease and the Term shall end as of the date of the vesting of title with the same effect as if said date were the Expiration Date. If only a part of the Real Property shall be so acquired or condemned then, (i) except as hereinafter provided in this subsection A, this Lease and the Term shall continue in force and effect but, if a part of the Premises is included in the part of the Real Property so acquired or condemned, from and after the date of the vesting of title, the Rent shall be reduced in the proportion which the area of the part of the Premises so acquired or condemned bears to the total area of the Premises immediately prior to such acquisition or condemnation; (ii) whether or not the Premises shall be affected thereby, provided that thirty (30%) percent or more of the Building has been affected by the taking or condemnation, then, Landlord, at Landlord’s option, may give to Tenant, within sixty (60) days next following the date upon which Landlord shall have received notice of vesting of title, a five (5) days’ notice of termination of this Lease; and (iii) if the part of the Real Property so acquired or condemned shall contain more than thirty percent (30%) of the total area of the Premises immediately prior to such acquisition or condemnation, or if, by reason of such acquisition or condemnation, Tenant no longer has reasonable means of access to the Premises, Tenant, at Tenant’s option, may give to Landlord, within sixty (60) days next following the date upon which Tenant shall have received notice of vesting of title, a five (5) days’ notice of termination of this Lease. If any such five (5) days’ notice of termination is given by Landlord or Tenant, this Lease and the Term shall come to an end and expire upon the expiration of said five (5) days with the same effect as if the date of expiration of said five (5) days were the Expiration Date. If a part of the Premises shall be so acquired or condemned and this Lease and the Term shall not be terminated pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this subsection A, Landlord, at Landlord’s expense, shall restore that part of the Premises not so acquired or condemned to a self-contained rental unit. In the event of any termination of this Lease and the Term pursuant to the provisions of this subsection A, the Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of sooner termination and any prepaid portion of Rent for any period after such date shall be refunded by Landlord to Tenant.

B.Award. In the event of any such acquisition or condemnation of all or any part of the Real Property, Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award for any such acquisition or condemnation, Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or the condemning authority for the value of any unexpired portion of the Term and Tenant hereby expressly assigns to Landlord all of its right in and to any such award. Nothing contained in this subsection B shall be deemed to prevent Tenant from making a claim in any condemnation proceedings for the then value of any furniture, furnishings and fixtures installed by and at the sole expense of Tenant and included in such taking, provided that such award shall not reduce the amount of the award (or delay the payment thereof) otherwise payable to Landlord.

12.ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

A.Prohibition Without Consent. Tenant expressly covenants that it shall not: (i) assign or otherwise transfer this Lease or the term and estate hereby granted, (ii) mortgage, pledge or encumber this Lease or the Premises or any part thereof in any manner by reason of any act or omission on the part of Tenant, or (iii) sublet the Premises or any part thereof or permit the Premises or any part thereof to be used or occupied by others, without obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, including without limitations this Article 12. If this Lease be assigned, or if the Premises or any part thereof be sublet or occupied by anybody other than Tenant, Landlord may, after default, beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, by Tenant, collect rent from the assignee, subtenant or occupant, and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no assignment, underletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions hereof, the acceptance of the assignee, undertenant or occupant as tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. The consent by Landlord to an assignment or underletting shall not in any way be construed to relieve Tenant from obtaining the express consent in writing of Landlord to any further assignment or underletting. In no event shall any permitted subtenant assign or encumber its sublease or further sublet all or any portion of its sublet space, or otherwise suffer or permit the sublet space or any part thereof to be used or occupied by others, without Landlord’s prior written consent in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, including without limitation, this Article 12. Any assignment, sublease, mortgage, pledge. encumbrance or transfer in contravention of the provisions of this Article 12 shall be void.

C.Landlord’s Option. In the event that Tenants Transfer Notice is a transaction which is for an assignment of the Lease or a sublease of all or substantially all of the Premises, such shall be deemed an offer from Tenant to Landlord whereby Landlord (or Landlord’s designee) may, at its option, terminate this Lease. Said option may be exercised by Landlord by notice to Tenant at any time within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s Transfer Notice has been delivered by Tenant to Landlord; and during such thirty (30) day period Tenant shall not assign this Lease nor sublet such space to any person or entity.

D.Termination by Landlord. If Landlord exercises its option to terminate this Lease as set forth in Article 12(C) above, then this Lease shall end and expire on the date that such assignment or sublet was to be effective or commence, as the case may be, and the Base Rent and Additional Rent due hereunder shall be paid and apportioned to such date.

Tenant further agrees to pay any amounts which may be assessed in connection with any of such taxes and to indemnify Landlord against and to hold Landlord harmless from any claims for payment of such taxes as a result of such transactions.

G.Conditions for Landlord’s Approval. In the event Landlord does not exercise the option provided to it pursuant to subsection C of this Article 12 and provided that Tenant is not in default of any of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease (after notice and the expiration of any applicable grace period) as of the time of Landlord’s consent, and as of the effective date of the proposed assignment or commencement date of the proposed sublease, Landlord’s consent (which must be in writing and form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord) to the proposed assignment or sublease shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s receipt of a Tenant’s Transfer Notice, provided and upon condition that:

O.Listings. The listing of any name other than that of Tenant, whether on the doors of the Premises or the Building directory, or otherwise, shall not operate to vest any right or interest in this Lease or in the Premises, nor shall it be deemed to be the consent of Landlord to any assignment or transfer of this Lease or to any sublease of the Premises or to the use or occupancy thereof by others. Any such listing shall constitute a privilege extended by Landlord, revocable at Landlord’s will by notice to Tenant.

P.Intentionally Omitted.

Tenant shall not at any time use or occupy the Premises, or any part thereof, in violation of the certificate of occupancy issued for the Premises or for the Building and in the event that any department of the City or State of New York shall hereafter at any time contend and/or declare by notice, violation, order or in any other manner whatsoever that the Premises are used for a purpose which is a violation of such certificate of occupancy whether or not such use shall be a Permitted Use, Tenant shall, upon five (5) days written notice from Landlord, immediately discontinue such use of the Premises. Failure by Tenant to discontinue such use after such notice shall be considered a default in the fulfillment of a covenant of this Lease and Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease immediately, and in addition thereto shall have the right to exercise any and all rights and privileges and remedies given to Landlord by and pursuant to the provisions of Articles 17 and 18 hereof.

16.LANDLORD’S LIABILITY.

Tenant shall look solely to Landlord to enforce Landlord’s obligations hereunder and shall not seek any damages of any kind or nature, whatsoever, against any of the Parties.

(iii)if the Premises shall become abandoned for more than thirty (30) consecutive

days; or

(iv)if Tenant’s interest in this Lease shall devolve upon or pass to any person, whether by operation of law or otherwise, except as may be expressly permitted under Article 12 hereof; Or

(v)if this Lease shall be rejected under §235 of Title 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code; or

(vi)if any execution or attachment shall be issued against Tenant or any of Tenant’s property pursuant to which the Premises shall be taken or occupied or attempted to be taken or occupied;

then, in any of said cases, at any time prior to or during the Term, of any one or more of such Events of Default, Landlord, at any time thereafter, at Landlord’s option, may give to Tenant a five (5) days’ notice of termination of this Lease and, in the event such notice is given, this Lease and the Term shall come to an end and expire (whether or not the Term shall have commenced) upon the expiration of said five (5) clays with the same effect as if the date of expiration of said five (5) days were the Expiration Date, but Tenant shall remain liable for damages as provided in Article 18 hereof.

Landlord shall have no obligation to relet the Premises or any part thereof and shall in no event be liable for refusal or failure to relet the Premises or any part thereof, or, in the event of any such reletting, for refusal or failure to collect any rent due upon any such reletting, and no such refusal or failure shall operate to relieve Tenant of any liability under this Lease or otherwise to affect any such liability; Landlord, at Landlord’s option, may make such repairs, replacements, alterations, additions, improvements, decorations and other physical changes in and to the Premises as Landlord, in its sole discretion, considers advisable or necessary in connection with any such reletting or proposed reletting, without relieving Tenant of any liability under this Lease or otherwise affecting any such liability.

(ii)Tenant hereby waives the service of any notice of intention to re-enter or to institute legal proceedings to that end which may otherwise be required to be given under any present or future law. Tenant, on its own behalf and on behalf of all persons claiming through or under Tenant, including all creditors, does further hereby waive any and all rights which Tenant and all such persons might otherwise have under any present or future law to redeem the Premises, or to re-enter or repossess the Premises, or to restore the operation of this Lease, after (a) Tenant shall have been dispossessed by a judgment or by warrant of any court or judge, or (b) any re-entry by Landlord, or (c) any expiration or termination of this Lease and the Term, whether such dispossess, re-entry, expiration or termination shall be by operation of law or pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. The words “re-enter”, “re-entry” and “re-entered” as used in this Lease shall not be deemed to be restricted to their technical legal meanings. In the event of a breach by Tenant, or any persons claiming through or under Tenant, of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease on Tenant’s part to be observed or performed, Landlord shall have the right, subject to Tenants right to notice and an opportunity to cure provided for in this Lease, to enjoin such breach and the right to invoke any other remedy allowed by law or in equity as if reentry, summary proceedings and other special remedies were not provided in this Lease for such breach. The right to invoke the remedies herein before set forth are cumulative and shall not preclude Landlord from invoking any other remedy allowed at law or in equity.

B.Damages,    (i) If this Lease and the Term shall expire and come to an end as provided in Article 17, or by or under any summary proceeding or any other action or proceeding, or if Landlord shall re-enter the Premises as provided in subsection A of this Article 18, or by or under any summary proceeding or any other legal action or proceeding, then, in any of said events:

(a)Tenant shall pay to Landlord all Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges payable under this Lease by Tenant to Landlord to the date upon which this Lease and the Term shall have expired and come to an end or to the date of re-entry upon the Premises by Landlord, as the case may be;

(b)Tenant also shall be liable for and shall pay to Landlord, as damages, any deficiency (referred to as “Deficiency”) between the Rent reserved in this Lease for the period which otherwise would have constituted the unexpired portion of the Term and the net amount, if any, of rents collected under any reletting effected pursuant to the provisions of subsection A(i) of this Article 18 for any part of such period (first deducting from the rents collected under any such reletting all of Landlord’s expenses in connection with the termination of this Lease, or Landlord’s reentry upon the Premises and with such reletting including, but not limited to, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, advertising, legal expenses, attorneys’ fees and disbursements, alteration costs and other reasonable expenses of preparing the Premises for such reletting); any such Deficiency shall be paid in monthly installments by Tenant on the days specified in this Lease for payment of installments of Rent, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant each monthly Deficiency as the same shall arise, and no suit to collect the amount of the Deficiency for any month shall prejudice Landlord’s right to collect the Deficiency for any subsequent month by a similar proceeding; and

(c)whether or not Landlord shall have collected any monthly Deficiencies as aforesaid, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, in lieu of any further Deficiencies as and for liquidated and agreed final damages, a sum equal to the amount by which the Rent reserved in this Lease for the period which otherwise would have constituted the unexpired portion of the Term exceeds the then fair and reasonable rental value of the Premises for the same period, less the aggregate amount of Deficiencies theretofore collected by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of subsection B(1)(b) of this Article 18 for the same period (in the computation of such amount, the difference between any installment of rent becoming due hereunder after the date of termination and the fair and reasonable rental value of the Premises for the period for which such installment was payable shall be discounted to the date of termination at the rate of four (4%) percent per annum); if, before presentation of proof of such liquidated damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the Premises, or any part thereof, shall have been relet by Landlord for the period which otherwise would have constituted the unexpired portion of the Term, or any part thereof, the amount of rent reserved upon such reletting shall be deemed, prima facie, to be the fair and reasonable rental value for the part or the whole of the Premises so relet during the term of the reletting.

(ii)If the Premises, or any part thereof, shall be relet together with other space in the Building, the rents collected or reserved under any such reletting and the expenses of any such reletting shall be equitably apportioned for the purposes of this subsection B. Tenant shall in no event be entitled to any rents collected or payable under any reletting, whether or not such rents shall exceed the Rent reserved in this Lease. Solely for the purposes of this Article, the term “Rent” as used in subsection B(i) of this Article 18 shall mean the Rent in effect immediately prior to the date upon which this Lease and the Term shall have expired and come to an end, or the date of re-entry upon the Premises by Landlord, as the case may be, adjusted to reflect any increase or decrease pursuant to the provisions of Article 28 hereof for the Comparison Year (as defined in said Article 28) immediately preceding such event. Nothing contained in Article 17 or this Article 18 shall be deemed to limit or preclude the recovery by Landlord from Tenant of the maximum amount allowed to be obtained as damages by any statute or rule of law, or of any sums or damages to which Landlord may be entitled in addition to the damages set forth in subsection B(i) of this Article 18.

(iii)Except for any damages which are expressly provided for in this Lease, including without limitation those set forth in Article 18, Article 19 and Article 21 of this Lease, in no event shall Tenant be liable to Landlord for any consequential damages suffered by Landlord as a result of any Event of Default by Tenant.

C.Legal Fees.    (i) Tenant hereby agrees to pay, as Additional Rent, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (and all other court costs or expenses of legal proceedings) which Landlord may incur or pay out by reason of, or in connection with:

(a)any action or proceeding by Landlord to terminate this Lease;

(b)any other action or proceeding by Landlord against Tenant (including, but not limited to, any arbitration proceeding) arising out of this Lease;

(c)any default by Tenant in the observance or performance of any obligation under this Lease (including, but not limited to, matters involving payment of Base Rent and Additional Rent, computation of escalations, alterations or other Tenant’s work and subletting or assignment), whether or not Landlord commences any action or proceeding against Tenant;

(d)any action or proceeding brought by Tenant against Landlord (or any officer, partner or employee of Landlord) in which Tenant fails to secure a final unappealable judgment against Landlord; and

(e)any action taken by Landlord to enforce any judgment, court order or settlement agreement between Landlord and Tenant involving or affecting Landlord, Tenant or this Lease.

(ii)Tenant’s obligations under this subsection C of Article 18 shall survive the expiration of the Term hereof or any earlier termination of this Lease. This provision is intended to supplement (and not to limit) other provisions of this Lease pertaining to indemnities and/or attorneys’ fees.

D.Additional Landlord Remedies. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that in the event this Lease and the Term hereof shall expire and come to an end as provided in Article 17, Tenant shall be liable for an amount equal to the sum of the unamortized portion of: (i) the cost of Landlord’s Initial Construction, plus OD any brokerage commissions or fees paid by Landlord in connection with this Lease (amortized on a straight-line basis over the Term of this Lease), which sums shall be immediately due and payable by Tenant on demand by Landlord and deemed to be Additional Rent hereunder.

19.FEES AND EXPENSES.

A.Curing Tenant’s Defaults. If Tenant shall default in the observance or performance of any term or covenant on Tenant’s part to be observed or performed under or by virtue of any of the terms or provisions in any Article of this Lease, after the giving of notice, if required, and upon the expiration of any applicable grace period (except in an emergency), Landlord may immediately or at any time thereafter and without notice perform the same for the account of Tenant. If Landlord makes any expenditures or incurs any obligations for the payment of money in connection with any such default by Tenant or the cure thereof including, but not limited to, any damages or fines or any reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements in instituting, prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding, such sums paid or obligations incurred with commercially reasonable rate of interest and reasonable out-of-pocket costs shall be deemed to be Additional Rent hereunder and shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within five (5) days of rendition of any bill or statement to Tenant therefor. If the Term hereof shall have expired at the time Landlord sustains or incurs such expenditures, such sums shall be recoverable by Landlord, as damages.

B.Late Charges. If Tenant shall fail to make payment of any installment of Base Rent or any Additional Rent within five (5) days after the date when such payment is due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to such installment of Base Rent or such Additional Rent, as the case may be, as a late charge and as Additional Rent, a sum based on a rate equal to the lesser of: (i) five percent (5%) of the late amount and (ii) the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, of the amount unpaid computed from the date such payment was due to and including the date of payment, but in no event shall interest be computed and payable for less than a full calendar month. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if Tenant fails to dispute any item of Additional Rent within ninety (90) days of receipt of a bill or notice therefor, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its right to dispute the same.

20.NO REPRESENTATIONS BY LANDLORD. Landlord or Landlord’s agents have made no representations or promises with respect to the Building, the Real Property, the Premises, Taxes (as defined

in Article 28 hereof) or any other matter or thing affecting or related to the Premises, except as herein expressly set forth and no rights, easements or licenses are acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise except as expressly set forth herein.

21.END OF TERM.

A.Surrender of Premises. Upon the expiration or other termination of the Term, Tenant shall quit and surrender to Landlord the Premises, vacant, broom clean, in good order and condition, ordinary wear and tear and damage for which Tenant is not responsible under the terms of this Lease excepted, and Tenant shall remove all Alterations and property required to be removed pursuant to Article 3 hereof. Tenant’s obligation to observe or perform this covenant shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of the Term. If the last day of the Term or any renewal thereof falls on Saturday or Sunday this Lease shall expire on the immediately preceding business day.

B.Holdover by Tenant. The parties recognize and agree that the damage to Landlord resulting from any failure by Tenant to timely surrender possession of the Premises as aforesaid will be substantial, will exceed the amount of the monthly installments of the Rent theretofore payable hereunder, and will be impossible to accurately measure. Tenant therefore agrees that if possession of the Premises is not surrendered to Landlord on the Expiration Date or sooner termination of the Term, in addition to any other rights or remedy Landlord may have hereunder or at law, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Holdover Payment, as such term is defined below. The “Holdover Payment” shall be equal to one and one-half (1.5x) times the Base Rent and Additional Rent which was due and payable under this Lease during the last month of the Term for the first sixty (60) days in which Tenant is deemed a holdover and a sum equal to two (2x) times the Base Rent and Additional Rent which was due and payable under this Lease for all time thereafter (the “Holdover Rate”), it being understood that a full month of Holdover Payment shall be due for each month and any portion of any month that Tenant holds over in the Premises, regardless of the number of days in a month that Tenant occupies the Premises. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to permit Tenant to retain possession of the Premises after the Expiration Date or sooner termination of this Lease and no acceptance by Landlord of payments from Tenant after the Expiration Date or sooner termination of the Term shall be deemed to be other than on account of the amount to be paid by Tenant in accordance with the provisions of this Article 21, which provisions shall survive the Expiration Date or sooner termination of this Lease. If Tenant shall hold-over or remain in possession of any portion of the Premises beyond the Expiration Date of this Lease, notwithstanding the acceptance of any Base Rent and Additional Rent paid by Tenant pursuant to the preceding provisions, Tenant shall be subject not only to summary proceeding and all damages related thereto, but also to any damages arising out of lost opportunities (and/or new leases) by Landlord to re-let the Premises (or any part thereof). All damages to Landlord by reason of such holding over by Tenant may be the subject of a separate action and need not be asserted by Landlord in any summary proceedings against Tenant.

22.QUIET ENJOYMENT. Landlord covenants and agrees with Tenant that upon Tenant paying the Rent and Additional Rent and observing and performing all the terms, covenants and conditions on Tenant’s part to be observed and performed, Tenant may peaceably and quietly enjoy the Premises, subject, nevertheless, to the terms and conditions of this Lease including, but not limited to, Article 16 hereof and to all Superior Leases and Mortgages.

23.FAILURE TO GIVE POSSESSION. Tenant waives any right to rescind this Lease under Section 223-a of the New York Real Property Law or any successor statute of similar import then in force, or otherwise, and further waives the right to recover any damages which may result from Landlord’s failure to deliver possession of the Premises on the date set forth in Article 1 hereof for the commencement of the Term for any reason whatsoever, including, but not limited to, the failure of the present tenant of the Premises to vacate and surrender the Premises to Landlord. If Landlord shall be unable to give possession of the Premises on such date, and provided Tenant is not responsible for such inability to give possession, the Rent reserved and covenanted to be paid herein shall not commence until the possession of the Premises is given or the Premises are available for occupancy by Tenant, and no such failure to give possession on

such date shall in any way affect the validity of this Lease or the obligations of Tenant hereunder or give rise to any claim for damages by Tenant or claim for rescission of this Lease, nor shall same be construed in any way to extend the Term. If permission is given to Tenant to enter into the possession of the Premises or to occupy premises other than the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, Tenant covenants and agrees that such occupancy shall be deemed to be under all the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease, including the covenant to pay Rent.

24.NO WAIVER.

A.If there be any agreement between Landlord and Tenant providing for the cancellation of this Lease upon certain provisions or contingencies and/or an agreement for the renewal hereof at the expiration of the Term, the right to such renewal or the execution of a renewal agreement between Landlord and Tenant prior to the expiration of the Term shall not be considered an extension thereof or a vested right in Tenant to such further term, so as to prevent Landlord from canceling this Lease and any such extension thereof during the remainder of the original Term such privilege, if and when so exercised by Landlord, shall cancel and terminate this Lease and any such renewal or extension previously entered into between Landlord and Tenant or the right of Tenant to any such renewal or extension; any right herein contained on the part of Landlord to cancel this Lease shall continue during any extension or renewal hereof; any option on the part of Tenant herein contained for an extension or renewal hereof shall not be deemed to give Tenant any option for a further extension beyond the first renewal or extended term.

B.No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord’s agents during the Term shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall be valid unless in writing signed by Landlord. No employee of Landlord or of Landlord’s agents shall have any power to accept the keys of the Premises prior to the termination of this Lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord or of Landlord’s agents shall not operate as a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises. In the event Tenant at any time desires to have Landlord sublet the Premises for Tenant’s account, Landlord or Landlord’s agents are authorized to receive said keys for such purpose without releasing Tenant from any of the obligations under this Lease, and Tenant hereby relieves Landlord of any liability for loss of or damage to any of Tenant’s effects in connection with such subletting.

C.The failure of Landlord to seek redress for violation of, or to insist upon the strict performance of, any covenant or condition of this Lease or any of the Rules and Regulations set forth or hereafter adopted by Landlord, shall not prevent a subsequent act which would have originally constituted a violation from having all force and effect of an original violation. The receipt by Landlord of Rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach. The failure of Landlord to enforce any of the Rules and Regulations set forth, or hereafter adopted, against Tenant and/or any other tenant in the Building shall not be deemed a waiver of any such Rules and Regulations. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Landlord or Tenant unless such waiver be in writing signed by such party to be charged.

D.No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the monthly Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated Rent, or as Landlord may elect to apply same, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.

E.This Lease contains the entire agreement between the parties and all prior negotiations and agreements are merged in this Lease. Any executory agreement hereafter made shall be ineffective to change, modify, discharge or effect an abandonment of it in whole or in part unless such executory agreement is in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, modification, discharge or abandonment is sought.

25.WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. It is mutually agreed by and between Landlord and Tenant that the respective parties hereto shall and they hereby do waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other on any matters whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, any claim of injury or damage, or for the enforcement of any remedy under any statute, emergency or otherwise. It is further mutually agreed that in the event Landlord commences any summary proceeding (whether for nonpayment of rent or because Tenant continues in possession of the Premises after the expiration or termination of the Term), Tenant will not interpose any counterclaim (except for mandatory or compulsory counterclaims) of whatever nature or description in any such proceeding. Tenant shall not join, consolidate, remove, or otherwise attempt to limit or stay any action or proceeding commenced by the Landlord against the Tenant or in which the Landlord and the Tenant are parties.

26.INABILITY TO PERFORM. In the event that either party hereto shall be delayed or hindered in or prevented from the performance of any act required hereunder by reasons of strikes, labor troubles, inability to procure labor or materials, failure of power, restrictive governmental laws or regulations, riots, insurrection, war, natural emergency, Acts of God, fire or other casualty, condemnation or other reason of a similar or dissimilar nature beyond the reasonable control of the party (each a “Force Majeure Cause”) delayed in performing work or doing acts required under the terms of this Lease, then performance of such act shall be excused for the period of the delay and the period for the performance of any such act shall be extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Article 26 shall operate to excuse Tenant from the prompt payment of Rent, Additional Rent or any other payments or charges required by the terms of this Lease or shall operate to extend the Lease Term. Delays or failures to perform resulting from lack of funds shall not be deemed delays beyond the reasonable control of a party.

27.BILLS AND NOTICES. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, any bills, statements, notices, demands, requests or other communications given or required to be given under this Lease shall be deemed sufficiently given or rendered if in writing, sent by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), or nationally recognized overnight courier (e.g., FedEx or UPS) addressed as follows or to such other address as either Landlord or Tenant may designate as its new address for such purpose by notice given to the others in accordance with the provisions of this Article 27:

This notice provision has been specifically negotiated between the parties hereto.

28.ESCALATION.

A.Defined Terms. In a determination of any increase in the Rent under the provisions of this Article 28, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:

(i)“Taxes” shall mean the aggregate amount of real estate taxes and any special or other assessments (exclusive of penalties and interest thereon) imposed upon the Real Property and real estate taxes or assessments imposed in connection with the receipt of income or rents from the Building to the extent that same shall be in lieu of all or a portion of the aforesaid taxes or assessments, or additions or increases thereof (including, without limitation, (i) assessments made upon or with respect to any “air rights”, (ii) assessments made in connection with any business improvement district and (iii) any assessments levied after the date of this Lease for public benefits to the Real Property or the Building (excluding an amount equal to the assessments payable in whole or in part during or for the Base Tax Year (as defined in Article 1

of this Lease) which assessments, if payable in installments, shall be deemed payable in the maximum number of permissible installments and there shall be included in real estate taxes for each Comparison Year in which such installments may be paid, the installments of such assessment so becoming payable during such Comparison Year (in the manner in which such taxes and assessments are imposed as of the date hereof); provided, that if because of any change in the taxation of real estate, any other tax or assessment (including, without limitation, any occupancy, gross receipts, rental, income, franchise, transit or other tax) is imposed upon Landlord or the owner of the Real Property or the Building, or the occupancy, rents or income therefrom, in substitution for, any of the foregoing Taxes, such other tax or assessment shall be deemed part of the Taxes. With respect to any Comparison Year (hereinafter defined) all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, reasonable experts’ and other witnesses’ fees, incurred in contesting the validity or amount of any Taxes or in obtaining a refund of Taxes shall be considered as part of the Taxes for such year. Taxes shall not include any: (1) income, excise, profits, estate, inheritance, succession, gift, transfer, franchise, capital or taxes upon the rentals payable under this Lease; and (2) taxes on rents, gross receipts or revenues of Landlord from the Premises.

(ii)“Assessed Valuation” shall mean the amount for which the Real Property is assessed pursuant to applicable provisions of the New York City Charter and of the Administrative Code of the City of New York for the purpose of imposition of Taxes.

(iii)“Tax Year” shall mean the period July 1 through June 30 (or such other period as hereinafter may be duly adopted by the City of New York as its fiscal year for real estate tax purposes).

(iv)“Base Taxes” shall mean the Taxes payable for the Base Tax Year.

(v)“Comparison Year” shall mean with respect to Taxes, any Tax Year subsequent to the Base Tax Year for any part or all of which there is an increase in the Rent pursuant to subsection B of this Article 28.

(vi)“Landlord’s Statement” shall mean an instrument or instruments containing a comparison of any increase or decrease in the Rent for the preceding Comparison Year pursuant to the provisions of this Article 28.

B.Escalation. (i) If the Taxes payable for any Comparison Year (any part or all of which falls within the Term) shall represent an increase above the Base Taxes, then the Rent for such Comparison Year and continuing thereafter until a new Landlord’s Statement is rendered to Tenant, shall be increased by Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such increase. The Taxes shall be initially computed on the basis of the Assessed Valuation in effect at the time Landlord’s Statement is rendered (as the Taxes may have been settled or finally adjudicated prior to such time) regardless of any then pending application, proceeding or appeal respecting the reduction of any such Assessed Valuation, but shall be subject to subsequent adjustment as provided in subsection D(i)(a) of this Article 28.

C.Payment of Escalations. (i) At any time prior to, during or after any Comparison Year Landlord shall render to Tenant, either in accordance with the provisions of Article27 hereof or by personal delivery at the Premises, a Landlord’s Statement or Statements showing separately or together (a) a comparison of the Taxes payable for the Comparison Year with the Base Taxes, and (b) the amount of the increase or decrease in the Additional Rent resulting from each of such comparisons. Landlord’s failure to render a Landlord’s Statement and/or receive payments with respect thereto during or with respect to any Comparison Year shall not prejudice Landlord’s right to render a Landlord’s Statement and/or receive payments with respect thereto during or with respect to any subsequent Comparison Year, and shall not eliminate or reduce Tenant’s obligation to pay increases in the Rent pursuant to this Article 28 for such Comparison Year. Landlord may also at any time and from time to time, furnish to Tenant a revised Landlord’s Statement or Statements showing separately or together a comparison of the Taxes payable for the Comparison Year with the Base Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s failure to provide a Landlord Statement to Tenant within

nine (9) months following the Expiration Date of the Lease, shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to receive payments with respect thereto.

(ii)(a) With respect to an increase in the Rent resulting from an increase in the Taxes for any Comparison Year above the Base Taxes, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a sum equal to one-half (¹/₂) of such increase on the first day of June and a sum equal to one-half (¹/₂) of such increase on the first day of December of each calendar year. If Landlord’s Statement shall be furnished to Tenant after the commencement of the Comparison Year to which it relates, then (1) until Landlord’s Statement is rendered for such Comparison Year, Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes for such Comparison Year in semi-annual installments, as described above, based upon the last prior Landlord’s Statement rendered to Tenant with respect to Taxes, and (2) Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s Statement is furnished to Tenant, pay to Landlord an amount equal to any underpayment of the installments of Taxes theretofore paid by Tenant for such Comparison Year and, in the event of an overpayment by Tenant, Landlord shall permit Tenant to credit against subsequent payments under this subsection (0)(10(b) of this Article 28 the amount of such overpayment. If during the Term of this Lease, Taxes are required to be paid (either to the appropriate taxing authorities or as tax escrow payments to a mortgagee or ground lessor) in full or in monthly, quarterly, or other installments, on any other date or dates than as presently required, then, at Landlord’s option, Tenant’s Proportionate Share with respect to Taxes shall be correspondingly accelerated or revised so that Tenant’s Proportionate Share is due at least thirty (30) days prior to the date payments are due to the taxing authorities or the superior mortgagee or ground lessor, as the case may be. The benefit of any discount for any early payment or prepayment of Taxes shall accrue solely to the benefit of Landlord, and such discount shall not be subtracted from Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such Taxes.

(b)Following each Landlord’s Statement, a reconciliation shall be made as follows: Tenant shall be debited with any increase in the Rent shown on such Landlord’s Statement and credited with the aggregate, if any, paid by Tenant on account in accordance with the provisions of subsection C(ii)(a) or C(ii)(b) for the Comparison Year in question; Tenant shall pay any net debit balance to Landlord within thirty (30) days next following rendition by Landlord, either in accordance with the provisions of Article 27 hereof or by personal delivery to the Premises, of an invoice for such net debit balance; any net credit balance shall be applied against the next accruing monthly installment of Rent.

D.Adjustments. (i) (a)In the event that, after a Landlord’s Statement has been sent to Tenant, an Assessed Valuation which had been utilized in computing the Taxes for a Comparison Year is reduced (as a result of settlement, final determination of legal proceedings or otherwise), and as a result thereof a refund of Taxes is actually received by or on behalf of Landlord, then, promptly after receipt of such refund, Landlord shall send Tenant a statement adjusting the Taxes for such Comparison Year (taking into account the expenses mentioned in the last sentence of subsection A(i) of this Article 28) and setting forth Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such refund and Tenant shall be entitled to receive such Share by way of a credit against the Rent next becoming due after the sending of such Statement (or shall be promptly reimbursed by Landlord in the amount of such refund in the event the Term of the Lease will expire before Tenant can apply the entire credit due); provided, however, that Tenant’s Share of such refund shall be limited to the amount, if any, which Tenant had theretofore paid to Landlord as increased Rent for such Comparison Year on the basis of the Assessed Valuation before it had been reduced.

(b)In the event that, after a Landlord’s Statement has been sent to Tenant, the Assessed Valuation which had been utilized in computing the Base Taxes is reduced (as a result of settlement, final determination of legal proceedings or otherwise) then, and in such event: (1) the Base Taxes shall be retroactively adjusted to reflect such reduction, (2) the monthly installment of Rent shall be increased accordingly and (3) in the event the reduction in the Assessed Valuation results in Landlord’s obligation to pay retroactive tax payments to the applicable taxing authority, all retroactive Additional Rent resulting from such retroactive adjustment shall be forthwith payable within thirty (30) days of when billed by Landlord. Landlord promptly shall send to Tenant a statement setting forth the basis for such retroactive adjustment and Additional Rent payments.

(ii)Any Landlord’s Statement sent to Tenant shall be conclusively binding upon Tenant unless, within thirty (30) days after such statement is sent, Tenant shall (a) pay to Landlord the amount set forth in such statement, without prejudice to Tenant’s right to dispute the same, and (b) send a written notice to Landlord objecting to such statement and specifying the particular respects in which such statement is claimed to be incorrect. The parties recognize the unavailability of Landlord’s books and records because of the confidential nature thereof.

(iii)Anything in this Article 28 to the contrary notwithstanding, under no circumstances shall the rent payable under this Lease be less than the then annual Base Rent set forth in Article 1 hereof.

(iv)The expiration or termination of this Lease during any Comparison Year for any part or all of which there is an increase or decrease in the Rent under this Article shall not affect the rights or obligations of the parties hereto respecting such increase or decrease and any Landlord’s Statement relating to such increase or decrease may, on a pro rata basis, be sent to Tenant subsequent to, and all such rights and obligations shall survive, any such expiration or termination. Any payments due under such Landlord’s Statement shall be payable within twenty (20) days after such statement is sent to Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s failure to provide a Landlord Statement to Tenant within nine (9) months following the Expiration Date of the Lease, shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to receive payments with respect thereto.

E.Capital Improvements.
