2.4 Condition. Landlord shall have no obligation to make any improvements or alterations to the Premises or the Building whatsoever, and Tenant accepts the Premises in an AS IS condition, with all faults. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Exhibit C is attached to this Lease, Landlord shall cause improvements to be constructed and alterations to be made in the Premises in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit B.

ARTICLE 3 USE OF PREMISES

3.1 Permitted Uses. Tenant may use and occupy the Premises for the purposes set forth in Section 1.11 and for no other purpose whatsoever without Landlord’s prior written consent. Tenant shall not use the Premises for any purpose in violation of exclusive rights granted by Landlord from time to time to any other Tenant; provided, however, that Landlord shall not grant any exclusive right that would prevent Tenant from conducting its business as described in Section 1.11.

3.2 Insurance Restrictions. Tenant shall not perform any act which would cause the cancellation of any insurance policies related to the Project. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any increases in insurance premiums paid by Landlord directly related to the nature of Tenant’s use of the Premises or the nature of Tenant’s business.

3.3 Improvements. If solely due to the nature of Tenant’s use of the Premises, improvements or alterations are necessary to comply with any requirements imposed by law or with the requirements of insurance carriers, Tenant shall pay the entire cost of the improvements or alterations.

3.4 Prohibitions. Tenant shall not cause or maintain any nuisance in or about the Premises and shall keep the Premises free of debris, rodents, vermin and anything of a dangerous, noxious or offensive nature or which would create a fire hazard (through undue load on electrical circuits or otherwise) or undue vibration, noise or heat. Tenant shall not cause the safe floor loading capacity to be exceeded. Tenant shall not disturb or interfere with the quiet enjoyment of the premises of any other tenant.

3.5 Common Areas. All of the portions of the Project made available by Landlord for use in common by tenants and their employees and invitees (“Common Areas”) at all times shall remain subject to Landlord’s exclusive control and Landlord shall be entitled to make such changes in the Common Areas as it deems appropriate. Landlord shall have the right at any time to change the arrangement and/or locations of entrances, or passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, windows, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the Building and to change the name, number or designation by which the Building or the Project is commonly known.

3.6 Rules and Regulations. Tenant shall comply and shall cause its employees to comply with the rules and regulations for the Project. The current rules and regulations are attached as Exhibit C. Landlord from time to time by notice to Tenant may amend the rules and regulations and establish other reasonable non-discriminatory rules and regulations for the Project.

3.7 Compliance with Law. Without in any manner limiting any other provision of this Lease, Tenant hereby represents and warrants and agrees for the full term of any obligations under this Lease:

(a) to comply fully with all federal, state and local laws, rules, orders, or regulations pertaining to health or the environment (“Environmental Laws”), including, without limitation, the comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (“CERCLA”) and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1987, as amended (“RCRA”).

(b) that Tenant will not dispose of nor permit or acquiesce in the disposal of any waste (including, but not limited to, any paints, solvents, or paint thinners) products on, under or around the Premises.

(c) to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord for any and all costs, claims, demands, damages including attorneys’ fees and court costs and investigatory and laboratory fees, related to any breach of this Lease, including, without limitation, any adverse health or environmental condition (including without limitation any violation of Environmental Laws) occurring during the term of this Lease. This indemnification to Landlord shall survive the termination of the Lease.

(d) comply with all reporting obligations imposed under the Federal Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know Act of 1986 and any similar state or local laws, rules or regulations.

(e) comply with all pretreatment requirements imposed by law with respect to the disposal of waste or effluent into the sanitary sewer system;

(f) prevent any dumping, spillage, leakage or runoff of substances regulated by Environmental Laws (“Regulated Substances”) into dry wells, storm drains, water retention areas, Common Areas or any areas where such substances could be absorbed into the soil;

(g) obtain and maintain all permits required by federal, state or local laws, rules or regulations;

(h) prepare, and upon request provide a copy to Landlord of, all response plans required by applicable law; and

(i) not keep, store, or use within the Premises any Regulated Substances except small quantities that are reasonably necessary for Tenant’s business and customarily associated with office usage, such as copier supplies.

3.8 Audit. At any time and from time to time, Landlord may retain an environmental consultant or engineer to conduct an audit or environmental assessment of the Premises and Tenant’s compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. Tenant shall extend its full cooperation with the audit or investigation. If Tenant is found not to be substantially in compliance with applicable law, all reasonable costs associated with the audit or assessment shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand; otherwise all costs shall be borne by Landlord. In addition, Tenant, at Landlord’s request from time to time, shall complete such questionnaires and provide such information with respect to Tenant’s activities and operations on the Premises as Landlord shall reasonably require.

3.9 Parking. Tenant shall lease the following parking spaces:

3.10 Keys, Locks and Access Cards.

(a) Landlord shall furnish Tenant two keys for each corridor door entering the Premises. Additional keys will be furnished at a charge by Landlord on an order signed by Tenant or Tenant’s authorized representative. All such keys shall remain the property of Landlord. No additional locks shall be allowed on any door of the Premises without Landlord’s permission, and Tenant shall not make, or permit to be made any duplicate keys. Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender to Landlord all keys of the Premises, and give to Landlord the combination of all locks for safes, safe cabinets and vault doors, if any, in the Premises.

(b) Landlord shall furnish tenant with security access cards for the Building (“Access Cards”). Access Cards will be furnished at a reasonable charge by Landlord on an order signed by Tenant or Tenant’s authorized representative. A portion of the charge for the Access Cards may constitute a deposit, the balance of which shall compensate Landlord for costs, record keeping and other administrative items in respect of the Access Cards. All such orders shall be treated as confidential. All such cards shall remain the property of Landlord. Replacement Access Cards shall be subject to a reasonable charge. Landlord shall charge Tenant a

reasonable transfer fee in connection with a change in the registration of an Access Card. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of a lost Access Card. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES shall tenant label, or in any other way identify, any Access Cards as to the name of the Building, address of the Building, or include tenant’s personal or company name. Upon termination of any officer, employee, or any other authorized representative of Tenant, any Access Card to said person shall be surrendered to Tenant immediately. It shall be the Tenant’s obligation to notify Landlord of all terminated access privileges as soon as possible following such action. Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender to Landlord all registered Access Cards. The card deposit portion of the charge paid by Tenant, if any, will be refunded by Landlord within thirty days, provided all Access Cards are in a reusable condition.

ARTICLE 4 SECURITY DEPOSIT

Upon execution of this Lease Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a security deposit in the amount set forth in Section 1.5 to secure Tenant’s performance of this Lease. The deposit shall not bear interest, shall not be required to be maintained in a separate account, and shall be returned, less any unpaid claims against Tenant, upon the expiration of this Lease and the surrender of possession of the Premises, to Tenant or the last assignee of Tenant’s interest. If Tenant has not been in default under the terms of this Lease for the first thirty-sixth (36^th) months of the lease term, then Landlord shall apply the Security Deposit towards the rental due for the thirty-seventh (37^th) month. If a Tenant default occurs after the thirty-sixth (36^th) month, then upon written notice from Landlord, Tenant will deposit with Landlord, within thirty days of said notice, a “new” security deposit of $12,000.00.

ARTICLE 5 RENT

5.1 Base Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in advance, on the first day of each calendar month, beginning on the first day of the fourth full calendar month following the Commencement Date (“Rent Commencement Date”), Base Rent in the amount set forth in Section 1.8.

5.2 Late Charges and Interest. Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount due if any installment of Base Rent or if any other amount payable under this Lease is not received by Landlord within five (5) days after the due date therefor. The parties agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of such late payment and that such late charge constitutes liquidated damages to compensate Landlord for costs and inconveniences of special handling and disruption of cash flow. The assessment or collection of a late charge shall not constitute the waiver of a default and shall not bar the exercise of other remedies for nonpayment. In addition to the late charge, all amounts not paid within ten days after the date due shall bear interest from the date due (i) until the happening of an Event of Default, at the rate of 12% per annum and (ii) thereafter, at the rate set forth in Section 21.2.

5.3 Excise Taxes. Tenant shall pay to Landlord all rental, sales, use, transaction privilege, or other excise tax levied or imposed upon, or measured by, any amount payable by Tenant under this Lease.

5.4 Obligations Are Rent. All amounts payable to Landlord under this Lease constitute rent and shall be payable without notice, demand, deduction or offset to such person and at such place as Landlord may from time to time designate by written notice to Tenant.

5.5 Proration. Base Rent payable with respect to a period consisting of less than a full calendar month shall be prorated.

ARTICLE 6 OPERATING COSTS

6.1 Tenant’s Share. Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs for each calendar year in excess of the Operating Costs for the Base Year as set forth in Section 1.10.

6.2 Estimates. From time to time Landlord shall by written notice specify Landlord’s estimate of Tenant’s obligation under Section 6.1. Tenant shall pay one-twelfth of the estimated annual obligation on the first day of each calendar month.

6.3 Annual Reconciliation. Within 120 days after the end of each calendar year, Landlord shall provide to Tenant a written summary of the Operating Costs for the calendar year, determined on an accrual basis and broken down by principal categories of expense. The statement also shall set forth Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs and shall show the amounts paid by Tenant on account. Any difference between Tenant’s obligation and the amounts paid by Tenant on account shall be paid or refunded, as the case may be, within fifteen days after the statement is provided. Late delivery of the annual statement of Operating Costs shall not relieve Tenant of any obligation with respect to payment of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Operating Costs.

6.4 Partial Year Proration; Variable Cost Adjustment. During the first and last years of the Term, Tenant’s responsibility for Operating Costs shall be adjusted in the proportion that the number of days of that calendar year during which the Lease is in effect bears to 365. Tenant’s obligations under this Article 6 for the payment of Operating Costs during the Lease Term, including the payment of any deficiency following receipt of the annual statement under Section 6.3, shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

6.5 “Operating Costs” consist of all costs of operating, maintaining and repairing the Project, including, without limitation, the following:

(a) Premiums for property, casualty, liability, rent interruption or other insurance.

(b) Salaries, wages and other amounts paid or payable for personnel including the Project manager, superintendent, operation and maintenance staff, and other employees of Landlord involved in the maintenance and operation of the Project, including contributions and premiums towards fringe benefits, unemployment and worker’s compensation insurance, pension plan contributions and similar premiums and contributions and the total charges of any independent contractors or managers engaged in the repair, care, maintenance and cleaning of any portion of the Project.

(k) Costs of capital expenditures incurred for the purpose of reducing Operating Costs, and costs of improvements, repairs, or replacements which otherwise constitute Operating Costs under this Article but which are properly charged to capital accounts shall not be included in Operating Costs in a single year but shall instead be amortized over their useful lives, as determined by the Landlord in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and only the annual amortization amount shall be included in Operating Costs.

(1) A fee for the administration and management of the Project appropriate to the nature of the Project as reasonably determined by the Landlord from time to time.

ARTICLE 8 INSURANCE AND INDEMNITY

8.1 Insurance Policies. Tenant shall, at its expense, take out and keep in full force and effect the following insurance:

(a) All-risk property insurance including sprinkler leakage in an amount equal to the full replacement cost of all property owned by Tenant.

(b) Business interruption insurance with a limit sufficient to insure not less than a six month loss of income.

(d) Comprehensive liability insurance applying to the use and occupancy of the Premises and the business operated by Tenant, including coverage for “premises/operations”, “products and completed operations”, and “blanket contractual” liabilities, written on an occurrence basis with limits not less than $1,000,000, naming Landlord, its agents, affiliates and contract property manager as additional insureds.

8.3 Evidence of Coverage.

No review or approval of any such insurance certificate by Landlord shall derogate or diminish Landlord’s rights or Tenant’s obligations. Tenant shall not take possession of the Premises without having complied with the requirements of this Section.

8.4 Indemnity and Exculpation. Tenant shall defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless, regardless of any negligence imputed to Landlord as owner of the real property involved in an injury, from and against any and all loss, claims, actions, damages, liability and expense in connection with loss of life, personal injury, damage to property or any other loss or injury whatsoever arising directly or indirectly from or out of this Lease, or any occurrence in, upon or at the Premises, or the occupancy or use by the Tenant of the Premises, or any act or omission of Tenant, its agents, servants, employees or invitees. Tenant shall not be required, however, to indemnify Landlord against a claim arising from Landlord’s active negligence or willful misconduct. Landlord shall not be liable and Tenant hereby waives all claims for any damage to any property in or about the Premises or the Project or injury or inconvenience to Tenant’s business, by or from any cause whatsoever (including without limiting the foregoing, rain or water leakage of any character from the roof, windows, walls, basement, pipes, plumbing works or appliances). Tenant acknowledges that it is protecting itself against loss by maintaining appropriate insurance coverage.

8.5 Landlord’s Policies. No insurable interest is conferred upon Tenant under any policies of insurance carried by Landlord, and Tenant shall not be entitled to share or receive proceeds of any insurance policy carried by Landlord.

ARTICLE 9 FIRE AND CASUALTY

9.1 Termination Rights. If all or part of the Premises is rendered untenantable by damage from fire or other casualty which in Landlord’s opinion cannot be substantially repaired (employing normal construction methods without overtime or other premium) under applicable laws and governmental regulations within 180 days from the date of the fire or other casualty, then either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease as of the date of such casualty by written notice delivered to the other not later than ten days after notice of such determination is given by Landlord.

9.2 Restoration. If in Landlord’s opinion the damage caused by the fire or casualty can be substantially repaired (employing normal construction methods without overtime or other premium) under applicable laws and governmental regulations within 180 days from the date of the fire or other casualty, or if neither party exercises its right to terminate under Section 9.1, Landlord shall, but only to the extent that insurance proceeds are available therefor, repair such damage other than damage to furniture, chattels or trade fixtures which do not belong to the Landlord, which shall be repaired forthwith by Tenant at its own expense.

9.3 Abatement. During any period of restoration, the Base Rent payable by Tenant shall be proportionately reduced to the extent that the Premises are thereby rendered untenantable from the date of casualty until completion by Landlord of the repairs to the Premises (or the part thereof rendered untenantable) or until Tenant again uses the Premises (or the part thereof rendered untenantable) in its business, whichever first occurs.

9.4 Demolition of Project. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.1, if all or a substantial part (whether or not including the Premises) of the Building is rendered untenantable by damage from fire or other casualty to such a material extent that in the opinion of Landlord the Project must be totally or partially demolished, whether or not to be reconstructed in whole or in part, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease as of the date of the casualty (or on the date of notice if the Premises are unaffected by such casualty) by written notice delivered to Tenant not more than sixty days after the date of the fire or casualty.

9.5 Agreed Remedies. Except as specifically provided in this Article, there shall be no reduction of rent and Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenant’s business or property arising from fire or other casualty, howsoever caused, or from the making of any repairs resulting therefrom in or to any portion of the Project or the Premises. Tenant waives any

statutory or other rights of termination by reason of fire or other casualty, it being the intention of the parties to provide specifically and exclusively in this Article for the rights of the parties with respect to termination of this Lease as a result of a casualty.

ARTICLE 10 CONDEMNATION

10.1 Automatic Termination. If during the Term all or any part of the Premises is permanently taken for any public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain, or purchased under threat of such taking, this Lease shall automatically terminate on the date on which the condemning authority takes possession of the Premises.

10.2 Optional Termination. If during the term any part of the Project is taken or purchased by right of eminent domain or in lieu of condemnation, whether or not the Premises are directly affected, then if in the reasonable opinion of Landlord substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Project is necessary or desirable as a result thereof, or the amount of parking available to the Project is materially and adversely affected, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant at least thirty days written notice of such termination.

10.3 Award. Landlord shall be entitled to receive and retain the entire award or consideration for the affected lands and improvements and Tenant shall not have or advance any claims against Landlord for the value of its property or its leasehold estate or the unexpired term of this Lease or for costs of removal or relocation or business interruption expense or any other damages arising out of the taking or purchase. Nothing herein shall give Landlord any interest in or preclude Tenant from seeking and recovering on its own account from the condemning authority any award of compensation attributable to the taking or purchase of Tenant’s chattels or trade fixtures or attributable to Tenant’s relocation expenses provided that any such separate claim by Tenant shall not reduce or adversely affect the amount of Landlord’s award. If any such award made or compensation paid to Tenant specifically includes an award or amount for Landlord, Tenant shall promptly account therefor to Landlord.

ARTICLE 11 MAINTENANCE

11.1 By Tenant. Tenant shall maintain equipment, alterations or other improvements whether constructed for Tenant’s initial occupancy or made subsequently pursuant to Article 15, such as supplemental or special cooling systems not consistent with building standard tenant improvements as established by the Landlord. If Tenant does not comply with its obligations under this Article, Landlord may, but need not, make such repairs and replacements or obtain such service contracts, and Tenant shall pay Landlord the cost thereof upon demand. Tenant also shall make such repairs and alterations necessary to comply with the requirements of any governmental or quasi-governmental authority having jurisdiction.

11.2 By Landlord. Landlord shall maintain the Premises and the improvements thereon (including all doors, plate glass, and heating, air conditioning, ventilation, electrical and plumbing systems serving the Premises), in good condition and repair.

CONSTRUCTION PROVISIONS

1 Preliminary Space Plan. Attached to this Lease as Exhibit A is a preliminary space plan approved by Landlord and Tenant showing the size, nature and location of the improvements to be constructed in the Premises (the “Improvements”). Promptly following execution of this Lease, Tenant shall meet with Landlord’s architect and shall provide such information and make such selections as may be necessary for the expeditious completion of the planning process.

2 Working Drawings. Based upon the preliminary space plan and the information provided and selections made by Tenant, Landlord shall cause working drawings and specifications (collectively, the “Plans”) to be prepared for the Improvements. The Plans shall be subject to Tenant’s reasonable approval. Tenant shall respond with all of its specific objections or comments to the proposed Plans within five days after receipt, and the Plans shall be modified to satisfy any reasonable objection of Tenant. Tenant shall promptly give its written approval of the revised Plans or indicate specific changes required to be made. Any revisions of the Plans after the revisions to the initial draft of the proposed Plans shall be made at Tenant’s sole expense, payable on demand.

3 Cooperation. During the entire course of the process described above, both Landlord and Tenant shall review and respond to submissions by the other party with reasonable dispatch. Tenant shall respond with its approval or comments within five days after receipt of initial drawings, specifications, or other materials requiring Tenant’s review and within three days after receipt of revised versions of such documents or materials. From time to time at the request of either party Landlord and Tenant shall devise, and revise as necessary, working schedules for the preparation of the Plans and the construction of the Improvements. Tenant shall not permit any supplier, installer, contractor, or other person employed by Tenant to interfere in any way with the progress of the work. Access by Tenant’s suppliers, contractors and installers shall be subject to (i) scheduling by Landlord upon at least ten days’ prior notice by Tenant, and (ii) compliance with all requirements imposed by Landlord with respect to insurance, cooperation, permits, licenses, bonding, hours of work, safety and use of flammable substances.

4 Redesign Option. If after the Plans are completed and Landlord’s contractor has submitted a price for the work, the estimated costs of construction exceed the Tenant Improvement Allowance, Tenant may elect within three days after receipt of the cost estimate to attempt to reduce the associated cost by reducing the scope of the work to be done. The changes, which shall be subject to Landlord’s prior approval, shall be incorporated in revised Plans. Any redesign and rebidding shall be completed within seven days after receipt of the initial cost estimate.

5 Cost. Prior to commencement of construction, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount, if any, by which the estimated costs of construction exceed the Tenant Improvement Allowance as set forth in Section 1.13. Any difference between actual and estimated costs shall be paid or refunded, as the case may be, within ten days after receipt of Landlord’s statement calculating the amount due. Landlord shall prepare and deliver the statement within a reasonable time after completion of punchlist items. “Costs of construction” of the Improvements as used in this Article means all costs and expenses incurred to design and build the improvements, including, without limitation, permit and inspection fees, management and supervision fees, taxes, amounts paid to contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers, architects’ fees, engineering costs, premiums for bonds and insurance, utilities, equipment rental, demolition, labor, materials, and supplies.

6 Punchlist. Within ten days after taking possession of the Premises, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a written punchlist specifying all defects in materials or workmanship in the Improvements. Any defects not specified in the punchlist, except latent defects not readily discoverable by inspection, are waived. Landlord shall promptly cause all matters appearing on the punchlist to be corrected.

7 Delay. If completion of construction of improvements within the Premises or delivery of possession of the Premises is delayed by Tenant Delay, then the Commencement Date shall be deemed to have occurred and rent shall begin to accrue as of the date when they would have done so but for the Tenant Delay. “Tenant Delay” means delay as a result of: (a) Tenant’s failure to meet with the architect and to provide all required information and make necessary selections for the expeditious development of Plans; (b) Tenant’s failure to provide comments on proposed Plans in a timely manner; (c) Tenant’s request for materials, finishes or installations requiring more time to obtain, construct or install than Landlord’s standard; or (d) Tenant’s change in any Plans after the revisions to the initial draft; or, (e) performance or completion by a party employed by Tenant. Landlord shall not be liable for any direct or consequential damages resulting from delayed delivery of the Premises (by reason of delayed construction, failure or refusal of a prior tenant of the space to vacate the Premises in accordance with its lease, or otherwise) and the scheduled Commencement Date and the Expiration Date shall be postponed by an amount equal to the period of delay.
