(c)           The Annual Basic Rent to be paid by Tenant for the Leased Premises at a Property during a Renewal Term (any such premises, the “Renewal Premises”) shall equal the Fair Market Rental Value of such Renewal Premises during such Renewal Term as determined by the parties or, in the absence of their agreement, determined by appraisal as expressed below; provided that the Annual Basic Rent payable during a Renewal Term for Non-FMRV Renewal Space at all Properties that contain Renewal Premises, computed on an aggregate basis, shall not be greater than the amount determined by multiplying (i) the aggregate Net Rentable Area of the Non-FMRV Renewal Space by (ii) the Annual Basic Rent Factor for the applicable Renewal Term as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto (the amount so determined, the “Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent”).  If the aggregate Fair Market Rental Values of the Non-FMRV Renewal Space at all Properties (collectively, the “Aggregate FMRV Rent”) exceeds the Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent, the Fair Market Rental Values of the Non-FMRV Renewal Space at each Property shall be proportionately reduced by multiplying each such Fair Market Rental Values by a fraction, expressed as a decimal, the numerator of which is the Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent and the denominator of which is the Aggregate FMRV Rent, so that the Annual Basic Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space shall, in the aggregate, equal the Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent.  With respect to FMRV Space that is part of Renewal Premises, the Annual Basic Rent shall always be the Fair Market Rental Value of such FMRV Space.  An illustration of how Annual Basic Rent is determined during a Renewal Term is attached as Schedule 5 hereto.

17

 

(e)           If Landlord and Tenant are unable to reach a definitive agreement as to the Fair Market Rental Value applicable to Renewal Premises within sixty (60) days following the Renewal Option Notice Date, the Fair Market Rental Value will be submitted for resolution in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.4(e).  Within seventy-five (75) days following the Renewal Option Notice Date (or, if later, within fifteen (15) days following the date on which either Landlord or Tenant notifies the other party in writing that such notifying party desires to have the Annual Basic Rent for a Renewal Term determined by appraisal), Landlord and Tenant shall each select and engage an Appraiser to determine the Fair Market Rental Value of the Renewal Premises.  If either party fails to select and engage an Appraiser within such time, if such failure continues for more than five (5) business days following such party’s receipt of written notice that states in all capital letters (or other prominent display) that such party has failed to select an Appraiser as required under the Lease and will be deemed to have waived certain rights granted to it under the Lease unless it selects an Appraiser within five (5) business days, the Fair Market Rental Value will be determined by the Appraiser engaged by the other party.  Each Appraiser shall prepare an appraisal report and submit it to both Landlord and Tenant within thirty (30) days following the date on which the last Appraiser was selected.  If the higher of the two appraisals of Fair Market Rental Value does not exceed one hundred five percent (105%) of the lower of the two appraisals of Fair Market Rental Value, then the average of the two (2) appraisals shall be the Fair Market Rental Value for the Renewal Premises.  If the higher of the two appraisals of Fair Market Rental Value exceeds 105% of the lower of the two appraisals of Fair Market Rental Value, then within seven (7) days after receipt by Landlord and Tenant of both appraisal reports, the Appraisers selected by Landlord and Tenant shall agree on a third Appraiser to determine Fair Market Rental Value.  The third Appraiser shall not perform a third appraisal, but shall, within ten (10) days after his or her designation, select one (1) of the two (2) appraisals already performed, whichever of the two appraisals the third Appraiser determines to be closest to Fair Market Rental Value, as the controlling determination of the Fair Market Rental Value.  The decision of the third Appraiser shall be conclusive, and, subject to the limitations expressed in Section 1.4(c), shall be the Fair Market Rental Value for the Renewal Premises for the Renewal Term.  Each party shall pay the costs of its Appraiser and one-half of the cost of the third Appraiser.  The instructions to the Appraisers with respect to the determination of the Fair Market Rental Value applicable to such space will be to determine the Fair Market Rental Value for such space as of the relevant Renewal Term, assuming that such space will be leased on an “AS-IS” basis.  Within thirty (30) days following the determination of the Fair Market Rental Value, Tenant shall elect one (1) of the following options:  (A) to revoke the exercise of the subject Renewal Option, in which event, the Term of this Lease for the Leased Premises to which the notice of revocation applies shall automatically, and without further action of Landlord or Tenant, expire on the later of (1) the expiration of the then existing Term or (2) the last day of the calendar month that is six (6) months following the month in which Tenant’s notice of revocation was given to Landlord or (B) to renew the Lease at the rate to be determined in accordance with this Section 1.4(e) after the Fair Market Rental Value has been determined by appraisal.  If Tenant fails to exercise any of the foregoing options within the thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have elected option (A).  If Tenant has elected option (B), Tenant thereby shall have irrevocably exercised its right to renew the Term and Tenant may not thereafter withdraw the exercise of the Renewal Option; in such event the renewal of this Lease (as to the Renewal Premises) shall be upon the same terms and conditions of this Lease, except (i) the Annual Basic Rent during the Renewal Term shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions and (ii) the leasehold improvements for the space in question will be provided in their existing condition, on an “AS-IS” basis at the time the Renewal Term commences.  If the Annual Basic Rent for a Renewal Term has not been determined prior to the commencement of such Renewal Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as of the commencement of the Renewal Term the same Annual Basic Rent as Tenant was paying immediately prior to the commencement of the Renewal Term, subject to adjustment upon final determination.  Once established, the Annual Basic Rent for the Renewal Term will remain fixed for each five (5) year Renewal Term, and be paid monthly in advance.
 
(f)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 1.4, subject to the provisions of Section 1.4(a) above, Tenant’s failure to give the required renewal notice with respect to the Leased Premises within a Property in conformity with the requirements of Section 1.4(b) shall render the upcoming and all subsequent Renewal Options for such Leased Premises, if there be any, null and void.

 
18

 
 
1.5           Use.  Each of the Leased Premises may be used and occupied by Tenant (and its permitted assignees and subtenants) only for banking and related uses and general business office purposes and such other lawful purposes as are consistent with banking and general office uses being made from time to time by tenants of the Building.  In addition and without limitation of the foregoing, Tenant may maintain (for use by Tenant and its employees, customers, and invitees):  (a) conference and/or meeting facilities, (b) libraries, (c) non-retail coffee bars, (d) support staff facilities (including word processing and copy facilities), (e) lunchrooms and kitchen facilities for use by Tenant and its employees and invitees, including vending machines and microwave ovens for use by Tenant and its employees and invitees, subject, however, to Legal Requirements, (f) storage space incidental to banking and general business office purposes only, (g) bank and storage vaults, (h) cash vault, (i) telephone call centers, (j) retail banking facilities and (k) as to each Property, any lawful purpose for which such Property was used on the Commencement Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, throughout the Term, Tenant shall not use, or permit the use of, the Leased Premises (or any part thereof) for any Prohibited Uses.  Tenant is not obligated to maintain occupancy in all or any portion of the Leased Premises.  For purposes of this Section 1.5, the term “banking” shall be deemed to include all traditional banking activities as well as the sale of insurance and annuities of all types, trust services, investment and financial advice, and the sale of securities.  If Tenant receives notice of any material directive, order, citation or of any violation of any Legal Requirement or any insurance requirement, Tenant shall endeavor to promptly notify Landlord in writing of such alleged violation and furnish Landlord with a copy of such notice.
 
1.6           Survival.  Any claim, cause of action, liability or obligation arising during the Term of this Lease in favor of a party hereto and against or obligating the other party hereto shall (to the extent not theretofore fully performed) survive the expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease.

(e)           If the Term commences for any portion of the Leased Premises on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, or if the Term for any portion of the Leased Premises expires on other than the last day of a calendar month, then all installments of Rent that are payable on a monthly basis with respect to such portion of the Leased Premises shall be prorated for the month in which such Term commences or terminates, as the case may be, and the installment or installments so prorated for the month in which such Term commences or terminates, as the case may be, shall be paid in advance.  Said installments for such prorated month or months shall be calculated by multiplying the monthly installment for the affected portion of the Leased Premises by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days such Rent accrues during said commencement or expiration month, as the case may be, and the denominator of which shall be the actual number of days in the month.  If the Term commences for any portion of the Leased Premises, or if the Term expires on other than the first day of a calendar year, then all Rent payable on an annual basis shall be prorated for such commencement or expiration year, as the case may be, by multiplying such Rent by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days of the Term during the commencement or expiration year, as the case may be, and the denominator of which shall be the actual number of days in such commencement or expiration year.  In such event, the foregoing calculation shall be made as soon as is reasonably possible.  Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that the provisions of this Section 2.1(e) shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
 
(f)           Tenant agrees to pay all Rent as shall become due from and payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease at the times and in the manner provided in this Lease, without abatement (except as specifically provided in this Lease), demand, offset (except as specifically provided in this Lease) or counterclaim, at Landlord’s address as provided herein (or such other address in the continental United States as may be designated in writing by Landlord from time to time).  Tenant shall have the right, at its option, to pay Rent by means of electronic funds transfer to such account and depository institution as Landlord shall specify from time to time upon Tenant’s request.  All Rent owed by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease shall bear interest from the date due thereof until payment is received by Landlord at the Applicable Rate; provided that Landlord shall not be entitled to receive interest during the first thirty (30) days following the payment due date on any overdue amount for which Landlord receives a late charge as provided in Section 2.1(g).  All sums owed by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall bear interest from the date due thereof until payment is received by Tenant at the Applicable Rate.  Any payments made by Landlord or Tenant to the other hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver by such party of any rights against the other party.

 
20

 
 
(g)           Tenant recognizes that late payment of any Rent will result in administrative and other expense to Landlord.  Therefore, other remedies for nonpayment of Rent notwithstanding, (i) in the event any installment of Annual Basic Rent is not received by Landlord on or before the fifth (5th) day of the month for which it is due, and such amount shall remain unpaid for more than five (5) days after Tenant’s receipt of written notice that such amount is past due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to two and one half (2½%) percent of the past due installment of Annual Basic Rent, and (ii) in the event any payment of Excess Basic Rent, if any, or Additional Rent is not received by Landlord within five (5) days after Tenant’s receipt of written notice that such amount is past due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional charge in an amount equal to the lesser of Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500.00) or one percent (1%) of the overdue amount.  Any notice of overdue payment for which Tenant shall be subject to a late charge shall state, in all capital letters (or other prominent display), that Tenant’s failure to remit payment by the appointed date shall result in the imposition of a late charge.  Landlord may not send any such notice of overdue payment to Tenant prior to the fifth (5th) day following the date such payment is due, and if any such premature notice is sent, it shall be deemed to have been sent on the fifth (5th) day following the date such payment was due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay a late charge on installments of Rent to the extent properly abated or set-off by Tenant pursuant to an express right to do so as set forth in this Lease or to the extent that Tenant’s payment is deficient by an amount that is less than or equal to one (1%) percent of the total amount due; provided that Tenant shall remit the amount of the deficiency promptly upon and, in any extent, within five (5) business days following Tenant’s receipt of written notice from Landlord that the same is past due.  All additional charges described herein are not intended as a penalty, but are intended to liquidate the damages so occasioned to Landlord and to reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s additional costs in processing such late payment, which amounts shall be added to the Rent then due.
 
(h)           Rent received by Landlord shall be applied by Landlord in the following order:  (i) Annual Basic Rent, (ii) Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, (iii) Tenant’s Tax Share, (iv) Excess Basic Rent, if any, (v) Above Standard Services Rent and (vi) to any remaining items of Rent that are due and unpaid.  Subject to the foregoing limitations, Tenant may, by written notice to Landlord with any Rent payment, direct how Rent is to be allocated among one or more Properties.
 
(i)           In those instances for which the right of offset is expressly provided, Tenant shall be entitled to offset against Rent next coming due any amounts that are owed or payable by Landlord to Tenant under or pursuant to the terms of this Lease as expressed in Article XIII.

 
21

 

2.2           Operating Expenses.
 
(a)           During each month of the Term of this Lease, on the same date that Annual Basic Rent is due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual cost of Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage of the Operating Expenses for the Properties as hereinafter provided (the amount so payable by Tenant, “Tenant’s Operating Expense Share”).  Tenant agrees the amount of Operating Expenses may be estimated by Landlord for the upcoming calendar year.  Landlord reserves the right to reasonably re-estimate Operating Expenses (and Tenant’s monthly installments of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share on account thereof) up to one (1) time each calendar year; provided that any re-estimation made during the course of any calendar year for purposes of adjusting Tenant’s monthly installments falling due during the same calendar year shall be made on not less than ninety (90) days’ prior notice to Tenant, which notice shall include documentation that evidences and supports, in reasonable detail, the basis and need for Landlord’s re-estimation of Operating Expenses.  Any overpayment or underpayment of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share shall be reconciled after the period for which estimated payments have been made by Tenant as expressed in Section 2.2(f).
 
(b)           “Operating Expenses,” for each calendar year, shall mean all expenses and costs of every kind and nature (other than as set forth in Section 2.2(c)) that have accrued for a particular calendar year, as reasonably allocated by Landlord and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, computed in accordance with GAAP, on an accrual basis and incurred in connection with the servicing, repairing, maintenance and operation of the Properties during each calendar year, including the expenses and costs set forth in items (i) through (xiii) below:

(iv)         cost of repairing, maintaining and cleaning the Common Areas of the Properties and the furniture and furnishings therein;

(viii)       the cost of all insurance premiums (a) required to be obtained by Landlord pursuant to this Lease or (b) customarily obtained by the owners of Comparable Buildings, including the cost of casualty and liability insurance, rental loss insurance for the Property, insurance on Landlord’s personal property located in and used in connection with the operation of the Property and insurance covering losses resulting from perils and acts of terrorism on terms specified in Article VI or as otherwise specified from time to time by Landlord;
 
(ix)         fair market management fees to the property manager for the Property and fair market rentals for a reasonably sized management office (if located in the Property); provided that in no event shall Operating Expenses include any costs attributable to a Building leasing office, and any space used for leasing and management functions shall be reasonably allocated between leasing and management functions for purposes of the pass-through of rental of the on-site management office;
 
(x)          costs of Remedial Work to the Common Areas (excluding Floor Common Areas on floors not leased in whole or in part by Tenant); provided that Landlord shall not be permitted to include any such costs as Operating Expenses unless (A) Landlord’s failure to perform the Remedial Work constitutes a violation of Legal Requirements, (B) Landlord is required to perform the Remedial Work by any notice of violation, order, decree, permit, rule or regulation issued by any Governmental Authority or (C) Landlord’s failure to perform the Remedial Work would, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, endanger the health, safety or welfare of any person on or about the Properties;
 
(xi)         HVAC service for the Common Areas (excluding Floor Common Areas on floors not leased in whole or in part by Tenant) as reasonably determined by Landlord using a consistently applied method of allocation;

(xiii)       the cost of rental (a) under any ground or underlying lease or leases existing on the Commencement Date for all or any portion of any Property and (b) under any ground or other underlying lease or leases hereafter entered into by Landlord for Parking Areas and other Common Area facilities that are made available for Tenant’s use and are, in fact, used by Tenant, but only for so long as Tenant continues such use.
 
 
23

 

For purposes of this Section 2.2(b), the phrase “as reasonably allocated by Landlord” shall mean as allocated by Landlord on a reasonable and consistent basis based upon time, square footage or other comparative measure that fairly reflects the Property’s appropriate share of such costs and in a manner that does not result in a profit to Landlord or result in a disproportionate burden to Tenant.
 
(c)           Anything in the foregoing provisions hereof to the contrary notwithstanding, Operating Expenses shall not include the following:
 
(i)           repairs or other work occasioned by fire, windstorm or other casualty, the costs of which are reimbursed to Landlord by insurers (or would have been so reimbursed to Landlord if Landlord had been in full compliance with the insurance provisions of this Lease) or by Governmental Authorities in eminent domain or by others; provided that in the event of a loss, the amount of the loss not reimbursed (including the amount of applicable deductibles) shall be includable in Operating Expenses;

(xi)         property management fees at any Property in excess of two and one-half percent (2.5%) of Gross Revenues for such Property; except that for all Tenant Managed Properties, all property management fees shall be excluded from Operating Expenses, and, in lieu thereof, (A) Tenant shall be solely responsible for paying the property management fees due the Tenant Designated Submanager and (B) Tenant shall pay Landlord a property management fee equal to one percent (1%) of Gross Revenue for such Tenant Managed Property that is paid by Tenant minus one and one-half percent (1.5%) of Gross Revenue, if any, for such Tenant Managed Property that is paid by non-Tenant sources;

(d)           Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to make payments on account of Operating Expenses in a time and manner to obtain the appropriate discounts or rebates available.  Landlord shall operate the Properties in an efficient manner and exercise reasonable efforts to minimize Operating Expenses consistent with maintaining services at a level consistent with Comparable Buildings.  In addition, with respect to janitorial services for the Leased Premises only, Tenant shall have the right, upon sixty (60) days written notice to Landlord, to separately contract for such services.  If Tenant makes such election, Operating Expenses shall exclude the cost of providing janitorial services to other tenants and occupants of the Building and all other portions of the Property (except for Common Areas) during the period of time that Tenant separately contracts for its own janitorial services, and the calculation of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share shall be adjusted so that Tenant receives the benefit of an appropriate credit for its payment of janitorial expenses allocable to its Leased Premises.
 
(e)           In the event any Property is not one hundred percent (100%) occupied during any year, appropriate adjustments shall be made (on a consistent basis from Lease Year to Lease Year) to those components of Operating Expenses which vary with Building occupancy, so as to calculate Operating Expenses as though the Building had been one hundred percent (100%) occupied in such year.  The average percentage of Building occupancy during any Lease Year shall be determined (on a Property by Property basis) as a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the Net Rentable Area of total leased space in the Building at the Property on the first day of each month during such year divided by twelve (12) and the denominator of which is the Net Rentable Area of the Building at the Property.  The foregoing notwithstanding, Landlord shall not (i) recover from Tenant more than Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage of the grossed-up Operating Expenses for a Property or (ii) recover from Tenant and other tenants of any Property an amount in excess of one hundred percent (100%) of the total Operating Expenses paid or incurred by Landlord with respect to such Property.
 
(f)           Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each calendar year during the Term or as soon thereafter as possible in the exercise of reasonable diligence, Landlord shall provide Tenant a statement (the “Operating Expense Statement”) prepared by Landlord showing Operating Expenses for such calendar year broken down by component expenses, in reasonable detail, and calculating Tenant’s Operating Expense Share for the applicable year and the prior year.  The Operating Expense Statement shall be certified by Landlord’s group controller or other officer knowledgeable of the facts certified to therein that, to the best of his or her knowledge, the Operating Expense Statement has been prepared in accordance with the definitions and provisions pertaining to Operating Expenses contained in this Lease.  In the event that an Operating Expense Statement indicates that Tenant owes Landlord additional amounts on account of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share for said calendar year, Tenant shall pay the amount due within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Operating Expense Statement.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, Landlord shall be estopped from amending, and hereby waives the right to amend, any Operating Expense Statement not amended by Landlord within three (3) years after the end of the calendar year to which said Operating Expense Statement applies, nor shall Landlord have the right through any other procedures or mechanism to collect any Operating Expense not included on the pertinent Operating Expense Statement after the third anniversary of the last day of the calendar year to which said Operating Expense Statement applies, unless before said third anniversary Landlord has delivered to Tenant a revised  Operating Expense Statement reflecting such revised Operating Expense (with a reasonably detailed explanation of the reasons for any such revision) and made a written demand for payment of said Operating Expense.

 
26

 

(g)           Any Operating Expense Statement or other notice from Landlord pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be subject to Tenant’s rights of review and audit set forth in Section 2.4.  Pending the resolution of any dispute, however, Tenant shall make payments in accordance with said Operating Expense Statement or other notice.
 
2.3           Real Estate Taxes.
 
(a)           Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, an amount equal to Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage of Real Estate Taxes for each Property that become due and payable during the Term of this Lease as hereinafter provided.  Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a copy of each Real Estate Tax invoice received by Landlord, together with a written statement (“Tax Statement”) setting forth (i) the amount of the Real Estate Taxes set forth on the invoice, (ii) the Property for which such Real Estate Taxes relate and (iii) Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage of such Real Estate Taxes, prorated on a per diem basis if only a part of the period for which such Real Estate Taxes relate falls within the Term of this Lease and, with respect to Real Estate Taxes for which a discount is available for early payment, discounted to reflect the greatest possible discount available to Landlord for such early payment, regardless of when such taxes are actually paid and regardless of whether Landlord actually obtains a discount for early payment (the amount so payable by Tenant with respect to each such invoice and in the aggregate, as applicable, “Tenant’s Tax Share”).  Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Tax Share to Landlord within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of the Tax Statement evidencing same.
 
(b)           “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean all real estate taxes, assessments and other governmental levies and charges, general and special, ordinary or extraordinary, of any kind and nature (including any interest on such assessments whenever the same are permitted to be paid in installments) which may presently or hereafter be imposed, levied, assessed or confirmed by any lawful taxing authorities which may become due and payable out of or for, or which may become a lien or charge upon or against the whole, or any part, of the Properties, including taxes imposed on (i) the gross rents or gross receipts (but not the net income) of the Properties and (ii) personal property in the Properties owned by Landlord and used in connection with the Properties, but only to the extent that the same would be payable if the Properties were the only property of Landlord.  If at any time during the Term the present system of ad valorem taxation of real property is changed or supplemented so that in lieu of or in addition to the ad valorem tax on real property there shall be assessed on Landlord or the Properties any tax of any nature that is imposed in whole or in part, in substitution for, addition to, or in lieu of any tax that would otherwise constitute a Real Estate Tax, such tax shall be included within the term “Real Estate Taxes,” but only to the extent that the same would be payable if the Properties were the only property of Landlord.  Such taxes may include a capital levy or other tax on the gross rents or gross receipts (but not the net income) of the Properties or similar tax, assessment, levy or charge measured by or based, in whole or in part, upon any such gross rents or gross receipts.  There shall be excluded from Real Estate Taxes (i) any realty transfer or similar taxes imposed on Landlord, (ii) taxes and assessments attributable to the personal property of other tenants, (iii) federal, state and local taxes on income, (iv) death taxes, (v) franchise taxes and (vi) any taxes (but not including ad valorem property taxes) imposed or measured on or by the net income of Landlord from the operation of the Property or imposed in connection with any change of ownership of the Property.  In no event shall Real Estate Taxes be included on the amount, if any, by which the value of leasehold improvements of any other tenant of the Building hereafter made (or leasehold improvements already existing and separately charged as an expense to be paid by such tenant) exceed the value of leasehold improvements generally found in the Building.  In the case of Real Estate Taxes that may be paid in installments, only the amount of each installment accruing during a calendar year shall be included in Real Estate Taxes during each calendar year.

 
27

 

(c)           At Tenant’s request so long as Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage at a Property is at least thirty-five percent (35%), Landlord shall contest or appeal the validity or amount of Real Estate Taxes for such Property by appropriate proceedings.  Landlord may also contest or appeal the validity or amount of Real Estate Taxes for any Property on Landlord’s own initiative.  Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage of Landlord’s reasonable, out of pocket expenses incurred in any such appeal.  Real Estate Taxes with respect to a Property that is the subject of an appeal filed by or on behalf of Landlord shall be paid on the basis of the amount reflected in the tax bill and shall not be adjusted until the final determination of the appeal.  Within thirty (30) days following such final determination, Landlord will refund to Tenant, or Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as applicable, the difference, if any, between Tenant’s Tax Share payments previously made by Tenant and the finally determined amount of Tenant’s Tax Share.
 
(d)           Any Tax Statement or other notice from Landlord pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Tenant’s rights of review and audit set forth in Section 2.4.  Pending the resolution of any dispute, however, Tenant shall make payments in accordance with said Tax Statement or other notice.

 
28

 

2.4           Budget; Audit Rights.
 
(a)           On or before June 1 of each calendar year during the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant for Tenant’s review and comment, a written estimate in reasonable detail of the projected budget for Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes for each Property for the next succeeding calendar year (the “Budget”).  The Budget shall show (i) the estimated amount of Operating Expenses, Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, Real Estate Taxes and Tenant’s Tax Share for each Property, for the next succeeding calendar year, (ii) the estimated amount for each major category of expense that is expected to be included in Operating Expenses for each Property during the next succeeding calendar year, including on a Property by Property basis, any items that constitute capital expenditures in accordance with this Lease and the amount thereof to be amortized during such calendar year, (iii) the estimated rates to be charged by Landlord for Above Standard Services for each Property for which Tenant has requested the same during the next succeeding calendar year and (iv) the actual amounts for all such items for the prior calendar year.  It is understood and agreed by Landlord and Tenant that the Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes in the Budget shall be estimated on a reasonable good faith basis taking into consideration, among other things, the actual Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes for the then current calendar year, a good faith estimate of the rate of cost increases during the then current calendar year, the actual known prospective increases to each item in the Budget and a good faith estimate for contingencies for the next succeeding calendar year.  Tenant may disapprove a portion of a proposed Budget only if such portion of the Budget fails to reflect the reasonable and necessary Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes to operate, repair and maintain the Properties in conformity with the requirements of this Lease and in accordance with the accepted principles of sound management practices as applied to the operation, repair and maintenance of Comparable Buildings; provided that for any Property when Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage is greater than thirty-five percent (35%), (i) Tenant may disapprove Landlord’s decision to replace (and not repair or maintain) any major equipment or system unless Landlord establishes, by certification of a qualified engineer for whom Tenant has no reasonable objection, that the equipment or system in question is beyond its useful life and that continued repair or maintenance (and not replacement) is not commercially practicable and (ii) Tenant may require Landlord to replace (and not repair or maintain) any major equipment or system if Tenant establishes, by certification of a qualified engineer for whom Landlord has no reasonable objection, that the equipment or system in question is beyond its useful life and that continued repair or maintenance (and not replacement) is not commercially practicable.  If Tenant disapproves a portion of a proposed Budget, Tenant shall so notify Landlord in writing, which notification shall state, in reasonable detail, the item or items of the proposed Budget disapproved by Tenant and the basis for such disapproval.  Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any differences concerning any proposed Budget.  Landlord shall deliver to Tenant the proposed final Budget for the next succeeding calendar year and the calculation of Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage thereof on or before July 15 of each calendar year; provided that if Tenant fails to approve a proposed Budget on or before July 1 of a preceding calendar year, and if the parties have been unsuccessful in their efforts to resolve any disagreements, either Landlord or Tenant may at any time thereafter submit the Budget for the next calendar year (or any portion thereof) to dispute resolution in accordance with the provisions of Article XII of this Lease, and, in such event, Landlord shall deliver the final Budget to Tenant within thirty (30) days following the completion of the dispute resolution process.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the dispute resolution process regarding the Budget is not completed by January 1 of the calendar year to which such proposed Budget relates, then (A) the costs set forth on the proposed Budget shall be used for all items not the subject of a dispute, and (B) to the extent applicable, the prior year’s budgeted costs shall be used for all items of a proposed Budget that are the subject of a dispute and (ii) in the event that the actual Operating Expenses or Real Estate Taxes incurred by Landlord during a calendar year exceed Landlord’s estimated Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes (including contingencies) for such year as set forth on an approved Budget, Landlord may prepare and submit a revised Budget to Tenant for Tenant’s review and approval (but not more frequently than once during any calendar year).  Upon completion of the dispute resolution process, the new year’s Budget shall be correspondingly adjusted and Tenant’s monthly payment of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share shall likewise be adjusted.  If Landlord determines during the course of a calendar year that a Building is in need of capital repairs, replacements or improvements that are not included in the approved Budget for such Building for such calendar year, Landlord shall so advise Tenant, and Tenant shall review and approve or disapprove the proposed capital repair, replacement or improvement in conformity with the procedures outlined in this Section 2.4(a) as if such repair, replacement or improvement were originally included by Landlord as part of the budget process described above.

 
29

 

(b)           Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall have the right, to be exercised by notice given to Landlord within three (3) years after receipt of an Operating Expense Statement, Tax Statement or other invoice, to audit and/or inspect that portion of Landlord’s books and records pertaining to such Operating Expenses, Real Estate Taxes or other components of Additional Rent, as applicable, for such calendar year; provided such audit and/or inspection commences within ninety (90) days after Tenant’s notice to Landlord and thereafter proceeds reasonably to conclusion, and further provided that Tenant may audit any single year only once unless Landlord has subsequently made revisions to any Operating Expense Statement, Tax Statement or other components of Additional Rent that impact Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, Tenant’s Tax Share or other Additional Rent payment.  Tenant may conduct such audit and/or inspection of Landlord’s books with Tenant’s own employees, or through an accountant or other agent selected by Tenant, or both in combination.  Tenant shall require any accountant or agent selected by Tenant to conduct or assist in such audit and/or inspection to execute and deliver to Landlord a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C.  Landlord agrees to cooperate in good faith with Tenant in the conduct of any such audit and/or inspection, and to make Landlord’s books and records of and relating to Operating Expenses, Real Estate Taxes or other components of Additional Rent, as applicable, available to Tenant or Tenant’s agents at one (1) single location.  If Tenant’s audit and/or inspection shows that Landlord’s calculation of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, Tenant’s Tax Share or other components of Additional Rent for the audited/inspected calendar year or years (which shall in no event be prior to the two (2) calendar years immediately preceding the most recently completed calendar year) was overstated by more than four percent (4%) with respect to any Property, then Landlord shall pay, within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s request, Tenant’s actual reasonable audit/inspection out-of-pocket fees applicable to the audit/inspection of said calendar year statements for such Property.  Upon completion of the audit and/or inspection, if the calculation of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, Tenant’s Tax Share or other components of Additional Rent indicates that Tenant overpaid Rent for any audited calendar year, Landlord shall pay Tenant (in the form of a credit against Rent next due or, upon expiration of this Lease, in the form of Landlord’s check within thirty (30) days after the completion of such audit and/or inspection) an amount equal to such overpayment.  In the event of any such audit or inspection, Landlord shall cause the books and records to be made available during such normal business hours as are prescribed by Landlord at Landlord’s headquarters or main office, which shall be located in the continental United States.  In any case, should Landlord disagree with the results of Tenant’s audit, Landlord and Tenant shall refer the matter to a mutually acceptable independent certified public accountant, who shall work in good faith with Landlord and Tenant to resolve the discrepancy.  The fees and costs of such independent accountant to which such dispute is referred shall be borne by the unsuccessful party and shall be shared pro rata to the extent each party is unsuccessful as determined by such independent certified public accountant, whose decision shall be final and binding.

(xiii)       Trash removal from the Property at designated locations.
 
All costs incurred by Landlord in connection with providing Building Standard Services shall be included in Operating Expenses.
 
The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.1(a) notwithstanding, the enumeration of particular building services is not a representation or agreement by Landlord that each Building Standard Service is available in specific quantities or amounts, or to particular standards or specifications at each Property.  Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Tenant owned and operated each of the Properties prior to the Commencement Date and Tenant is fully aware of the capabilities and limitations of the Building systems.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to be a covenant or agreement of Landlord, or a representation or warranty of Landlord, express or implied, that Landlord shall improve the level of service provided by existing Property systems.  With respect to the Building Standard Services referenced in Section 3.1(a)(i), (ii), (v) and (ix), Landlord shall furnish such services in such quantities and at such levels that are at least equal to the quantities and levels being furnished at each Property immediately prior to the Commencement Date, with Tenant acknowledging and agreeing that Landlord shall not be required to provide during the Term greater quantities or higher levels of service than is capable of being provided with the machinery, equipment and systems that existed immediately prior to the Commencement Date and that Landlord has no obligation to replace or improve such machinery, equipment or systems other than in the ordinary course as may be consistent with sound building management practices or as required by Section 5.5.
 
(b)           If Tenant requires electrical energy for use in the Leased Premises in excess of the capacities described in Section 3.1(a)(vi), and if electric energy for such additional requirements is available to Landlord, Landlord shall, upon Tenant’s request and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, furnish and install such additional wires, risers, conduits, feeders, switchboards and circuit panels as reasonably may be required to supply such additional requirements of Tenant.  If any portions of the Leased Premises or any of Tenant’s electrical equipment requires HVAC service in excess of Building Standard HVAC service, the same shall be installed, or the installation supervised by Landlord, on Tenant’s behalf, and Tenant shall pay all design, installation, submetering, repair, maintenance, replacement and operating costs relating thereto, unless such HVAC service is used in common with other tenants of the Building, in which event such costs shall be reasonably allocated by Landlord among Tenant and such other tenants.  The location and specifications of any such supplemental HVAC units shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, which approval may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  In connection with the operation of any supplemental HVAC units serving the Leased Premises, to the extent a particular Property shall have available chilled water capacity, during Building Operating Hours Tenant may use such available chilled water for said supplemental HVAC units, and Landlord shall not charge Tenant for such service except to the extent that Landlord actually incurs an expense in providing such chilled water to Tenant.  If Tenant shall require chilled water service in amounts not otherwise available or during other than Building Operating Hours, Tenant shall pay Landlord for the cost of providing such services as Above Standard Services Rent.

 
33

 

(c)           If and to the extent requested by Tenant from time to time and to the extent the same are reasonably available, Landlord shall provide Tenant with services in excess of Building Standard Services as described in Section 3.1(a) (“Above Standard Services”).  All of the costs incurred by Landlord in connection with providing any special Tenant services shall be paid by Tenant as Above Standard Services Rent, including costs that would not have been incurred but for Tenant’s request for Above Standard Services.  Landlord’s charges for Above Standard Services shall be established and revised from time to time by Landlord on a Property by Property basis; provided that at no time shall Landlord’s charges for Above Standard Services exceed Landlord’s actual out-of-pocket costs, nor shall Landlord (i) include any overhead or profit in the calculation of Above Standard Services costs or (ii) charge Tenant at a higher rate for Above Standard Services than Landlord charges any other tenant of a Building for comparable services.  All amounts collected by Landlord from Tenant and any other party to provide Above Standard Services or similar services shall be used to reduce Operating Expenses to the extent that the cost of providing the same were included in the calculation of Operating Expenses.
 
(d)           Landlord shall furnish Tenant at least twenty four (24) hours prior written notice of any non-emergency suspension or interruption in the Building Standard Services scheduled by Landlord for routine repairs or maintenance; provided that if such suspension or interruption will render the Building Common Areas or the Leased Premises inaccessible, without electric power, without cold domestic water or sanitary sewer service or otherwise untenantable in the ordinary course, Landlord shall endeavor to provide Tenant with not less than ninety (90) days’ prior notice thereof.
 
(e)           To the extent the services described in this Section 3.1 require electricity, water or other utility services supplied by public utilities, Landlord shall not be deemed to be in breach of Landlord’s covenants hereunder because of the failure of a public utility to supply the required services so long as Landlord uses reasonable efforts to cause the applicable public utilities to furnish the same.  Except as expressly provided in Section 3.1, failure by Landlord to furnish the services described in this Section 3.1, or any cessation thereof for reasons beyond Landlord’s control, shall not render Landlord liable for damages to either person or property, nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor work an abatement of Rent, nor relieve Tenant from fulfillment of any covenant or agreement hereof.  In addition to the foregoing and except as otherwise provided below, should any of the equipment or machinery, for any cause, fail to operate or function properly, Tenant shall have no claim for a rebate of Rent or for damages on account of any interruption in services occasioned thereby or resulting therefrom so long as Landlord uses reasonable efforts to promptly repair said equipment or machinery and to restore said services.

 
34

 

(f)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Landlord fails to provide any of the services Landlord is obligated to provide under this Lease, and if such failure adversely impacts Tenant’s use or enjoyment of the Leased Premises or any portion thereof (and Tenant actually ceases to use the affected area for business operations), and if such failure of Landlord to provide services continues for more than three (3) consecutive business days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord and all Notice Parties for any reason (except due to Force Majeure Events or gross negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or Tenant’s agents, employees or contractors) (any such failure, a “Service Failure”), then all Rent due under this Lease for the affected portion of the Leased Premises at the affected Property or Properties shall be abated for the entire duration of the Service Failure.  In addition to Tenant’s foregoing rights, Tenant shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure the Services Failure in the manner expressed in Section 7.1(f) and to recover the reasonable cost thereof from Landlord as expressed in Article XIII.
 
3.2           Keys and Locks.  Tenant currently possesses keys and/or access cards, as applicable, for each lockset on doors entering the Leased Premises from public areas for use by its current employees maintaining offices in the Leased Premises.  Additional keys and/or access cards, including keys and/or access cards for new employees of Tenant and replacement keys and/or access cards for lost or damaged keys and/or access cards will be furnished by Landlord upon an order signed by Tenant and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense.  Tenant shall be permitted to install additional locks or other access control devices in the Leased Premises provided Tenant furnishes Landlord with a duplicate set of keys or a master key and/or access cards to all such locks other than those locks securing Security Areas.  Upon termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender to Landlord all keys and/or access cards to any locks on doors entering or within the Leased Premises, and shall provide Landlord with the combination of all locks for safes, safe cabinets and vault doors, if any, within the Leased Premises; provided that if Tenant terminates this Lease with respect to less than all of the Leased Premises at a Property and, at the time of such termination, the Leased Premises was served by an access control or other security system installed by Tenant in lieu of or in addition to the access control or security systems serving the Building generally, Tenant shall have no obligation to cause the terminated portion of the Leased Premises to continue to be served by any such supplemental access control or security systems.
 
3.3           Graphics and Building Directory.
 
(a)           On any full floor of the Leased Premises, and at each location within any Property where Tenant maintains such signage as of the Commencement Date, Tenant may, using Tenant’s standard corporate signage and graphics (as Tenant may change its standard corporate signage and graphics from time to time) install and maintain on or adjacent to entrances to the Leased Premises Tenant’s name, numerals and/or logo designating the appropriate suite numbers and departments occupying such floor.
 
(b)           If the lobby of any Building contained a building directory on the Commencement Date, or if Landlord elects to install or construct a building directory in the lobby of the Building at any time, then such building directory board shall contain a listing of Tenant’s name and such other information as Tenant shall reasonably require (including, at Tenant’s option, the names of all of Tenant’s businesses, related entities, assignees, sublessees, and senior management), and Tenant shall be entitled to Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage, from time-to-time, of the space contained in such directory, which listings shall be installed by Landlord at Tenant’s expense.

(a)           During the Term of this Lease, for so long as the herein named Tenant, or its Affiliates, shall remain in possession of at least five percent (5%) of the Net Rentable Area of a Property, or shall continue to operate a retail bank at such location, neither the Building name (if such Building is named for the herein named Tenant as of the Commencement Date), nor Tenant’s exterior building signage (at all Properties) may be changed by Landlord without Tenant’s consent, which consent may be withheld in Tenant’s sole and absolute discretion.  If a Property is named for the herein named Tenant as of the Commencement Date and during the Term hereof Tenant’s corporate name, identity or logo is changed; provided that the herein named Tenant, or its Affiliates, shall remain in possession of not less than five percent (5%) of the net Rentable Area of a Property, or shall continue to operate a retail bank at such location, Tenant shall have the right, upon ninety (90) days prior written notice to Landlord, to change the name of the Building (and/or any Building signage containing such prior name or logo) to include the herein named Tenant’s new corporate name, identity, or logo; provided that Tenant shall pay for all signage costs and all of Landlord’s other out-of-pocket costs associated with the removal of the old, and installation of the new, signage, and further provided that such new signage shall satisfy all applicable Legal Requirements and shall have been approved in advance by Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  In addition, at any time during or after the Term of this Lease Tenant shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, upon ninety (90) days prior written notice to Landlord, to require Landlord to change the name of any Property so as to remove Tenant’s identity therefrom; provided that Tenant shall pay for the cost of removing Tenant’s name from all Building signage.  Tenant shall repair any damage to the interior or exterior of the Buildings caused by Tenant’s installation, maintenance, use, relocation or removal of signage; provided that Tenant shall not be obligated to repair any damage to the interior or exterior of the Building caused by the removal of signage so long as Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, patches any holes or covers over (by sign blanks of similar size, shape and general appearance) such signage areas on the facades of the Buildings and on and in the other interior and exterior Common Areas.
 
(b)           During the Term of this Lease, for so long as the herein named Tenant, or its Affiliates, shall remain in possession of office space or shall continue to operate a retail bank at such location (i) Landlord may not remove or alter any Tenant signage or graphics existent on the Commencement Date (other than interior signage or graphics on floors no longer leased, in whole or in part, by Tenant), (ii) the Property shall not be named for any other Building tenant, (iii) no other Building tenant shall have the right, without Tenant’s consent, which Tenant may grant or withhold in Tenant’s sole discretion, to erect signage on the roof of the Building or at or around the top level of the exterior of the Building, (iv) no other Building tenant, other than retail tenants and tenants occupying one or more whole floors within the Building, shall be permitted any exterior monument, pole or building-mounted signage and (v) all “For Sale” and “For Lease” signage and advertising shall indicate, if such be the case, that Tenant is not vacating and will remain an occupant at the Building or, if Tenant is vacating the Building, such signage and advertising shall identify the date on which Tenant is anticipated to vacate the Building; provided that Landlord shall not post any signage or make any advertisement indicating that Tenant intends to cease retail banking operations at a Property unless and until Tenant shall have made any required public announcements or given any required notices to depositors regarding such event.
 
 
36

 

(c)           During the Term of this Lease, for so long as the herein named Tenant, or its Affiliates, shall remain in possession of at least thirty-five percent (35%) of the Net Rentable Area of a Property, or shall continue to operate a retail bank at such location, Landlord will not allow any portion of the Property (other than the portion of the Property then leased to Tenant) to be used for any retail banking or savings and loan, without Tenant’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in Tenant’s sole and absolute discretion.  For purposes of this Agreement, banking and savings and loan shall mean any retail banking use or purpose, which shall include receiving deposits or making loans to the general public, whether done by a state bank, national bank, savings and loan association, trust company, credit union, mortgage broker or company, or other entity, whether by walk-up, drive-in teller facility or otherwise.  If Landlord shall intend to lease space to any other bank or savings and loan for the operation of a retail banking or savings and loan at a time when the herein named Tenant, or its Affiliates, shall occupy less than thirty-five percent (35%) of the Net Rentable Area of a Property, and shall not operate a retail banking facility at the Building, Landlord shall advise Tenant of Landlord’s intentions, and Tenant shall have the right, exercisable by notice in writing to Landlord within twenty (20) days following Landlord’s notice to Tenant, to re-lease and re-occupy the retail banking location at the Building at the Rent last payable in respect of such Leased Premises, failing which Landlord may proceed with Landlord’s lease as proposed.
 
(d)           During the term of this Lease, Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s expense, to erect and maintain such exterior building signage displaying the corporate name, identity or logo of the herein named Tenant, or its Affiliates, as Tenant may from time to time desire, including monument signage at up to two (2) corners of the Land, and, in such event, Tenant will have the exclusive right to place signage on any such monuments so erected by Tenant, subject to Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  In connection with its installation, repair, maintenance and removal of any exterior or monument signage, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall comply with all Legal Requirements.

37

 

(f)           Tenant’s exterior and monument signage existing as of the Commencement Date is hereby deemed to be approved by Landlord.  Any changes to the existing exterior and/or monument signage by Tenant (including changes to the location, size, shape, color, and content of the exterior and/or monument signage) shall be subject to approval by Landlord, which approval may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Landlord agrees that Tenant shall have the right to change such signage in the event of a change in Tenant’s name, trade name or logo; provided that such new signage shall satisfy all applicable Legal Requirements and shall have been approved in advance by Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
 
(g)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, the rights granted to Tenant pursuant to Sections 3.3 and 3.4 shall be subject and subordinate to the rights of any Building tenants whose leases are in effect as of the Commencement Date.  For example purposes only, and not as a means of limitation, if an existing tenant’s lease (as in effect on the Commencement Date) requires such existing tenant’s approval for a change in the name of the Building, then Tenant may not cause the name of the Building to change without such existing tenant’s approval.  As another example, if an existing tenant’s lease (as in effect on the Commencement Date) provides for such existing tenant to place its name on exterior and/or monument signage, then any exercise of such existing tenant’s rights shall not be deemed to be a violation of Tenant’s rights under this Lease.
 
3.5           Communications Equipment.
 
(a)           Subject to the provisions of this Section 3.5, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right, at its sole cost and expense and for Tenant’s use, to install, maintain and operate upon the roof of the Building one (1) or a reasonable and necessary additional number of transmitters and/or receiver antennas or dishes approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (collectively, the “Communications Equipment”) for use by Tenant in the conduct of its business; provided that such Communications Equipment may not materially compromise the aesthetics or appearance of the Building nor shall Landlord be required to incur any expense in accommodating the Communications Equipment.  The Communications Equipment must be (i) designed, installed and operated in compliance with all Legal Requirements, and (ii) installed and operated so as not to adversely affect or impact structural, mechanical, electrical, elevator, or other systems serving the Building or customary telephone service for the Building and so as not to cause injury to persons or property, and without limitation of the foregoing, so as not to void or impair any applicable roof warranty.  Upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove the Communications Equipment and repair any damage to the Building caused by the installation, maintenance, use or removal of the Communications Equipment.
 
(b)           Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the right to install (at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) any additional equipment required to operate the Communications Equipment and to connect the Communications Equipment to Tenant’s other machinery and equipment located in the Leased Premises (e.g., conduits and cables) in the shafts, ducts, chases and utility closets located in the core of the building (“Additional Equipment”), which Additional Equipment shall be deemed a part of the Communications Equipment for all purposes of this Section 3.5; provided that (i) the use of such space in the Building core by Tenant (except customary chases for cabling) may not materially adversely affect the marketability of the remaining space on any floor of the Building, and (ii) to the extent any such Additional Equipment occupies space (other than space in customary chases for the Building) that would have otherwise been Net Rentable Area on a floor of the Building, such space shall be included within the Net Rentable Area of the Leased Premises and Tenant shall be obligated to pay Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent with respect to such space as if such space was included in the Leased Premises.  Tenant’s use of such space in the Building core shall be subject to the provisions of this Lease relating to Tenant’s use of Common Areas of the Building.
 
 
38

 

(c)           Subject to the Building Rules and other reasonable rules relating to Building security and safety that may be promulgated by Landlord pertaining to access by tenants to the roof of the Building and provided Tenant does not unreasonably disturb any other tenants of the Building, Tenant and Tenant’s contractors shall have reasonable access to the Communications Equipment and the Additional Equipment for purposes of operating, servicing, repairing or otherwise maintaining said equipment.
 
(d)           Nothing contained in this Section 3.5 shall be deemed to prohibit or restrict any other individual or entity, including Landlord or any other tenant of the Building, from installing communications equipment on the roof of the Building or to use the roof for any other purpose.
 
(e)           In connection with its installation, repair, maintenance and removal of any Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall comply with all applicable Building Rules and Legal Requirements and repair any damage to the Building caused by such installation, repair, maintenance or removal.  In the event that the placement of Tenant’s Communications Equipment or Additional Equipment interferes with Landlord’s performance of any repair or maintenance to the Common Areas, including the roofs of the Buildings, any costs incurred by Landlord to temporarily or permanently relocate and reinstall Tenant’s Communications Equipment or Additional Equipment shall be included in the cost of such repair or maintenance as a Operating Expense.
 
(f)           Tenant’s Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment existing as of the Commencement Date are hereby deemed to be approved by Landlord.  Any changes to the existing Communications Equipment and/or Additional Equipment by Tenant shall first be approved by Landlord, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
 
(g)           If Landlord shall place on the roof of any Building communications equipment of its own, or shall grant to any third party the right to locate and maintain any such equipment, all such equipment shall be located, designed and operated so as not to interfere with signals to and from Tenant’s Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment, the installation of which, in accordance with this Section 3.5, predates the installation of such other equipment.  Similarly, any Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment hereafter installed by Tenant shall be located and designed so as not to interfere with signals to and from such other equipment belonging to Landlord or to third parties, that may have previously been installed.  The party responsible for the communications equipment which interferes with equipment previously installed by others shall be required, at its or their expense, to take all measures necessary to eliminate the source of interference caused by such party’s equipment.
 
 
39

 
3.6           Building Management.  The Properties shall be managed by Landlord; provided that for so long as Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage at a Property shall be equal to or greater than ninety (90%), after consultation with Landlord to review Landlord’s property management qualifications and pricing, Tenant may in its sole discretion elect, on a Property by Property basis, to cause such Property to be submanaged by a qualified property submanager designated by Tenant (any such submanager, a “Tenant Designated Submanager”), who shall provide on-site and supervisory property management services for Landlord, Tenant and any third party tenants and other occupants at such Property (any Property with a Tenant Designated Submanager, a “Tenant Managed Property”).  At all Properties that are not Tenant Managed Properties, Landlord shall provide on-site and supervisory property management services either through an Affiliate of Landlord or through a qualified third party property submanager designated by Landlord (any such Landlord Affiliate or submanager, a “Landlord Designated Submanager”).  Landlord shall be and remain responsible for disbursement of Operating Expense and Real Estate Tax payments at all Properties, including Tenant Managed Properties.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Landlord shall not select a Landlord Designated Submanager for whom Tenant has a reasonable objection, (b) Tenant shall not select a Tenant Designated Submanager for whom Landlord has a reasonable objection, (c) if a Landlord Designated Submanager persistently fails to perform its property management duties in a timely, complete and professional manner that is consistent with the highest level of property management services provided at Comparable Buildings, Tenant may cause such non-performing Landlord Designated Submanager to be replaced by a Tenant Designated Submanager, in which event, at Tenant’s election, the Property or Properties at which such replacement occurs shall become Tenant Managed Property and (d) if a Tenant Designated Submanager persistently fails to perform its property management duties in a timely, complete and professional manner that is consistent with the highest level of property management services provided at Comparable Buildings, Landlord may cause such non-performing Tenant Designated Submanager to be replaced by a Landlord Designated Submanager, in which event, at Landlord’s election, the Property or Properties at which such replacement occurs shall no longer be Tenant Managed Properties.  Any disputes between Landlord and Tenant with respect to property management matters arising under this Section 3.6 shall be subject to resolution as provided in Article XII and XIII.

(b)           Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease as to an affected property on account of a Casualty by delivering written notice to Tenant within forty-five (45) days after a Qualified Damage; provided that Landlord also terminates all other similarly affected tenant leases that Landlord has a right to terminate as a result of such Casualty.  As used herein, a “Qualified Damage” shall mean any one or more of the following:
 
(i)           There shall be damage to an extent greater than fifty percent (50%) of the replacement cost of the Building above the foundation, and such damage or destruction shall be caused by a risk covered by insurance maintained or required to be maintained (whether or not actually maintained) by Landlord pursuant to this Lease (i.e., an “insurable risk”).
 
(ii)           There shall be damage, resulting from a risk other than an insurable risk, to an extent greater than twenty-five percent (25%) of the replacement cost of the Building above the foundation.
 
(iii)           Necessary repairs to the Damaged Property cannot be completed, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord’s architect, within two hundred seventy (270) days after the occurrence of such damage, which opinion Landlord shall cause its architect to deliver to Tenant not more than thirty (30) days after the Casualty.
 
(c)           Notwithstanding any language herein to the contrary, if at the time of any substantial damage to the Leased Premises from a Casualty, less than one (1) year remains in the Term, then (i) Landlord shall have the right, in its sole option, to elect not to rebuild or restore the Damaged Property, such right to be exercised, if at all, by written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of such Casualty, and (ii) Tenant shall have the right, in its sole option, to terminate this Lease, such right to be exercised, if at all, within thirty (30) days after the date of such Casualty or within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notice pursuant to Section 6.3(c)(i) .

 
52

 

(d)           If Landlord is herein required to repair and restore the Property, and Tenant shall have had, but shall not have exercised, a right of termination as provided at Section 6.3(a), Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to commence such repair and restoration within sixty (60) days following the Casualty.  Landlord’s architect shall determine the date that Landlord commences the repair and restoration of the Property and shall notify Tenant of such determination within thirty (30) days thereof.  Notwithstanding any language herein to the contrary, if Landlord undertakes but fails to repair and restore the Damaged Property within the later of (i) one (1) year after the date determined by Landlord’s architect to be the date Landlord commenced the restoration and repair work or (ii) the date identified in Landlord’s architect’s opinion given pursuant to Section 6.3(a) as the date by which Landlord’s architect believed the repair and restoration to the Damaged Property would be completed (the later such date, the “Outside Completion Date”), for any reason other than a delay caused by an act or omission of the Tenant, then subject to the final sentence of this paragraph, Tenant may terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the Outside Completion Date, but before the repairs and restoration to the Damaged Property have been completed.  If Tenant fails to deliver such notice within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall have waived its right to terminate this Lease on account of the time required to repair such casualty.  The Outside Completion Date shall be automatically extended for each day of delays caused by Force Majeure Events (but in no event shall such Outside Completion Date be extended for more than sixty (60) days by Force Majeure Events).
 
6.4           Property Insurance.  Landlord shall maintain standard fire and extended coverage insurance, plus, if elected by Landlord, coverage for acts of terrorism, for each Property, including for the Buildings, Common Areas, including Parking Areas, Leased Premises and other tenantable areas and on the improvements and betterments contained therein (excluding Tenant’s and any other tenant’s furniture, furnishings, equipment, trade fixtures or other property), in an amount not less than eighty percent (80%) of the full replacement cost thereof above the foundation.  Upon the request of Tenant, a copy of a duly executed certificate of insurance reflecting Landlord’s maintenance of the insurance required under this Section 6.4 shall be delivered to Tenant.  Said insurance shall be maintained with a reputable insurance company selected by Landlord and qualified and licensed to do business in the State in which the Property is located and having a current Best’s Rating of A+ or better.  All payments for losses thereunder shall be made solely to Landlord.
 
6.5           Liability Insurance.  Landlord and Tenant shall each maintain a policy or policies of comprehensive general liability insurance with the premiums thereon fully paid on or before the due dates, issued by and binding upon a reputable insurance company qualified and licensed to do business in the State in which the Property is located, with a current Best’s Rating of A+ or better.  Such insurance shall afford minimum protection (which may be effected by primary and/or excess coverage) of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) for bodily injury or death in any one (1) accident or occurrence and against property damage.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, so long as Tenant satisfies the Self-Insurance Net Worth Test, Tenant may self insure in order to meet any insurance requirements in this Lease.  In the event Tenant fails, in whole or in part, to carry insurance that complies with the requirements of this Section 6.5, Tenant shall be deemed to self-insure to the extent of such noncompliance.
 
6.6           Hold Harmless.  Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, or to Tenant’s agents, servants, employees, contractors, customers or invitees, for any damage to person or property to the extent caused by any negligent act or omission of Tenant, or its agents, servants or employees, and Tenant agrees to and does hereby indemnify, defend and hold harmless, Landlord and Landlord’s shareholders, officers and trustees, and its and their respective successors and assigns, from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of action, fines, penalties, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs), liens or liabilities to the extent caused by (i) any negligent act or omission of Tenant, or its agents, servants or employees or (ii) any claim for which Tenant was obligated to obtain insurance, but elected to self-insure as permitted by Section 6.5.  Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord, or to Landlord’s agents, servants, employees, contractors, customers or invitees, for any damage to person or property to the extent caused by any negligent act or omission of Landlord, or its agents, servants or employees and Landlord agrees to and does indemnify, defend and hold harmless Tenant and Tenant’s shareholders, officers and directors, and its and their respective successors and assigns, from and against any and all claims, demands, causes or action, fines, penalties, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and costs), liens or liabilities to the extent caused by any negligent act or omission of Landlord, or its agents, servants or employees.

 
53

 
 
6.7           WAIVER OF RECOVERY.  ANYTHING IN THIS LEASE TO THE CONTRARY NOTWITHSTANDING, LANDLORD AND TENANT EACH HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS OF RECOVERY, CLAIM, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION, AGAINST THE OTHER, AND ITS AGENTS, SERVANTS, PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS OR EMPLOYEES, FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE THAT MAY OCCUR TO THE LEASED PREMISES, THE PROPERTY OR ANY IMPROVEMENTS THERETO OR THEREON, OR ANY PROPERTY OF SUCH PARTY THEREIN OR THEREON, BY REASON OF FIRE, THE ELEMENTS, OR ANY OTHER CAUSE THAT IS INSURED AGAINST (OR IS INSURABLE, WHETHER OR NOT ACTUALLY INSURED) UNDER THE TERMS OF STANDARD FIRE AND EXTENDED COVERAGE INSURANCE POLICIES IN THE STATE IN WHICH THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED, REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT OF THE PROCEEDS, IF ANY, PAYABLE UNDER SUCH INSURANCE POLICIES AND THE CAUSE OR ORIGIN, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OF THE OTHER PARTY HERETO, OR ITS AGENTS, OFFICERS, PARTNERS, SHAREHOLDERS, SERVANTS OR EMPLOYEES, AND COVENANTS THAT NO INSURER SHALL HOLD ANY RIGHT OF SUBROGATION AGAINST SUCH OTHER PARTY ON ACCOUNT THEREOF.
 
ARTICLE VII
DEFAULTS, REMEDIES, BANKRUPTCY, SUBORDINATION
 
7.1          Default and Remedies.
 
(a)           The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an Event of Default (“Event of Default”) under this Lease on the part of Tenant:
 
(i)           Failure to pay any payment of Rent when due (including Annual Basic Rent, Excess Basic Rent, if any, Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, Tenant’s Tax Share and Above Standard Services Rent) and such failure to pay continues for a period of ten (10) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided that Landlord shall not be obligated to send written notice of a failure to pay more than two (2) times in any consecutive twelve (12) month period, or
 
(ii)           At any time that Tenant does not satisfy the Net Worth Test, failure of Tenant to maintain any policy of insurance that Tenant is required by the terms of this Lease to maintain and such failure continues for a period of ten (10) business days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant of such failure, which notice shall (A) specify the insurance policy which Tenant has failed to maintain and the provision of this Lease which requires Tenant to maintain such insurance, and (B) state, in all capital letters and in a prominent place, that the continuance of such failure to maintain insurance for ten (10) business days after Tenant’s receipt of such written notice will constitute an Event of Default under Section 7.1(a) of the Lease, or

 
54

 
 
(iii)           Tenant breaches or fails to comply with any term, provision, condition or covenant of this Lease, other than as described in Section 7.1(a)(i) and (ii), and such breach or failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant of such breach or failure to comply (or, if such breach or failure is curable but reasonably cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, Tenant does not commence to cure such breach or failure promptly within such thirty (30) day period and continuously and diligently thereafter pursue such cure and remedy until such breach or failure is remedied; provided that there shall be a maximum period of one hundred eighty (180) days after Landlord’s written notice to cure or remedy such default, except that such maximum cure period shall extended as appropriate for delays caused by Force Majeure Events.
 
(b)           Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, subject to Section 7.1(e) below, Landlord shall have the option to do and perform any one or more of the following in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other remedy or right permitted it by law or in equity or by this Lease:
 
(i)           Landlord may immediately or at any time thereafter, collect all overdue Rent and other charges payable to Landlord, together with Landlord’s legal fees and costs of enforcement, with interest at the Applicable Rate from the date such sums were originally due until the date paid in full.
 
(ii)           Landlord may immediately or at any time thereafter re-enter the Leased Premises and correct or repair any condition which shall constitute a failure on Tenant’s part to keep, observe, perform, satisfy, or abide by any term, condition, covenant, agreement, or obligation of this Lease or of the Building Rules now in effect or hereafter adopted or of any notice given Tenant by Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and Tenant shall fully reimburse and compensate Landlord on demand.
 
(iii)           Subject to the limitations expressed in Section 7.1(e), Landlord, with or without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at any time thereafter demand in writing that Tenant vacate the Leased Premises and thereupon Tenant shall immediately vacate the Leased Premises and remove therefrom all property thereon (other than Non-Removable Improvements) belonging to or placed in the Leased Premises by, at the direction of, or with consent of Tenant, whereupon Landlord shall have the right to re-enter and take possession of the Leased Premises.  Any such demand, re-entry and taking possession of the Leased Premises by Landlord shall not of itself constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of this Lease or of the Leased Premises by Tenant and shall not of itself constitute a termination of this Lease by Landlord.

 
55

 

(iv)           Subject to the limitations expressed in Section 7.1(e), Landlord may immediately or at any time thereafter, re-enter the Leased Premises, and if persons or any of Tenant’s property are then in the Leased Premises, then, upon prior written notice to Tenant, Landlord may remove therefrom Tenant and all property belonging to or placed on the Leased Premises by, at the direction of, or with consent of Tenant, all at Tenant’s expense.  Any such re-entry and removal by Landlord shall not of itself constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of this Lease or of the Leased Premises by Tenant and shall not of itself constitute a termination of this Lease by Landlord.
 
(v)           Subject to the limitations expressed in Section 7.1(e), Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at anytime thereafter relet the Leased Premises or any part thereof, for such time or times, at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord deems reasonable, and Landlord may make any alterations or repairs to the Leased Premises that are necessary or proper to facilitate such reletting as office space; and Tenant shall pay all costs of such reletting, including the cost of any such alterations and repairs to the Leased Premises and reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred; and Tenant shall continue to pay all Rent due under this Lease up to and including the date of beginning of payment of rent by any subsequent tenant of part or all of the Leased Premises, and thereafter Tenant shall pay monthly during the remainder of the Term the amount, if any, by which the Rent and other charges reserved in this Lease exceed the rent and other charges collected from any such subsequent tenant or tenants (net of the costs Landlord incurred to re-enter and relet the Leased Premises), but Tenant shall not be entitled to receive any excess of any such rents collected over the Rent reserved herein.  Landlord hereby agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Leased Premises to mitigate or otherwise reduce the damages for which Tenant may be liable hereunder, but only to the extent required under applicable law in the state in which the Building is located; provided that in no event shall Landlord’s leasing or attempted leasing of other space in the Building instead of the Leased Premises, in and of itself, violate the provisions of the preceding sentence.  Any such reletting may be for such rent, for such time, and upon such terms as the Landlord, in the Landlord’s good faith discretion, shall determine to be commercially reasonable.  Landlord shall be deemed to have exercised commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Leased Premises so long as Landlord or Landlord’s agents employ marketing methods and procedures substantially similar to marketing methods and procedures used by Landlord or Landlord’s agents to market and lease vacant space in other buildings, which are similar in nature and quality to the Building, owned by Landlord or an affiliate of Landlord.
 
(vi)           Subject to the limitations expressed in Section 7.1(e), Landlord may immediately or at any time thereafter terminate this Lease, and this Lease shall be deemed to have been terminated upon notice to Tenant of such termination; upon such termination Landlord shall elect to either recover from Tenant (A) all damages Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination including all arrearages in rentals, costs, charges, additional rentals, and reimbursements, the cost (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) of recovering possession of the Leased Premises, the actual or estimated (as reasonably estimated by Landlord) cost of any alteration of or repair of the Leased Premises that is necessary or proper to prepare the same for reletting as office space, or (B) all arrearages in rentals, plus an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the present value discounted at the Prime Rate of the total amount of all Rent to be paid by Tenant for the remainder of the Term, over the present value (discounted at the same rate) of the fair market rental value of the Leased Premises for the remainder of the Term.

 
56

 
 
(c)           If Landlord re-enters the Leased Premises or terminates this Lease pursuant to any of the provisions of this Lease, Tenant hereby waives all claims for damages that may be caused by such re-entry or termination by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Lease.  Tenant shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any loss, cost (including court costs and attorneys’ fees), or damages suffered by Landlord by reason of such re-entry or termination unless caused by Landlord’s gross negligence.
 
(d)           The exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the rights and remedies provided in this Lease shall not prevent the subsequent exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the other rights and remedies herein provided.  Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, remedies provided for in this Lease are cumulative and may, at the election of Landlord, be exercised alternatively, successively, or in any other manner and are in addition to any other rights provided for or allowed by law or in equity.
 
(e)           Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Sections 7.1(b)(iii) through (vi), Landlord may not:
 
(i)           terminate this Lease as to any Property or Properties unless either (A) Tenant shall have failed to pay, without the contractual right to abate or offset as herein otherwise provided, Rent for such Property or Properties in an amount equal to or greater than the amount of three (3) months’ Annual Basic Rent then due and payable with respect to such Property or Properties, and such failure to pay continues for a period of ten (10) days following Tenant’s receipt of written notice thereof from Landlord, which notice shall state in all capital letters (or other prominent display) that this Lease may be terminated as to such Property or Properties if Tenant fails to promptly pay all overdue Rent for such Properties or Properties, or (B) Tenant shall fail to comply with any final order relating to such Property or Properties rendered pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures outlined in Article XII within the time periods set forth in such order, or, if no time periods are set forth therein, then within such time period as is reasonably necessary to promptly and diligently comply with such order, but not to exceed sixty (60) days, subject to appropriate extensions for delays caused by Force Majeure Events, and such failure to comply continues for a period of thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of written notice thereof from Landlord, which notice shall state in all capital letters (or other prominent display) that this Lease may be terminated as to such Property or Properties if Tenant fails to promptly comply with the requirements of such order; or
 
(ii)           terminate this Lease in its entirety unless Tenant shall have failed to pay, without the contractual right to abate or offset as herein otherwise provided, Rent in an amount equal to or greater than the amount of three (3) months’ Annual Basic Rent then due and payable with respect to all Properties under this Lease, and such failure to pay continues for a period of ten (10) days following Tenant’s receipt of written notice thereof from Landlord, which notice shall state in all capital letters (or other prominent display) that this Lease may be terminated if Tenant fails to promptly pay all overdue Rent.

 
57

 
 
(f)           If Landlord should fail to perform or observe any covenant, term, provision or condition of this Lease and such default should continue beyond a period of ten (10) days as to a monetary default or thirty (30) days (or such longer period as is reasonably necessary to remedy such default; provided Landlord shall continuously and diligently pursue such remedy at all times until such default is cured) as to a non-monetary default, after in each instance written notice thereof is given by Tenant to Landlord (and a copy of said notice is sent simultaneously therewith to the Notice Parties) (“Landlord Default”), then, in any such event Tenant shall have the right, (i) to cure or attempt to cure the Landlord Default (upon twenty-four (24) hours’ notice in the event of an emergency, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1(f)), and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for all reasonable sums expended in so curing the Landlord Default or (ii) to commence such actions at law or in equity to which Tenant may be entitled.  The exercise by Tenant of any one or more of the rights and remedies provided in this Lease shall not prevent the subsequent exercise by Tenant of any one or more of the other rights and remedies herein provided.  Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, remedies provided for in this Lease are cumulative and may, at the election of Tenant, be exercised alternatively, successively, or in any other manner and are in addition to any other rights provided for or allowed by law or in equity, including the right to claim that Tenant has been constructively evicted.
 
(g)           Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.1(e) hereof, if Landlord should fail to maintain any policy of insurance which Landlord is required by the terms of this Lease to maintain and such failure continues for a period of ten (10) business days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord and all Notice Parties of such failure, which notice shall (A) specify the insurance policy which Landlord has failed to maintain and the provision of this Lease which requires Landlord to maintain such insurance.  Tenant’s sole and exclusive recourse and remedy for Landlord’s failure to maintain any such policy of insurance shall be limited to the limited offset right provided in Section 13.1.
 
7.2          Insolvency or Bankruptcy.  The appointment of a receiver to take possession of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, or any general assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or any action taken by Tenant under any insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization act, or an involuntary proceeding against Tenant that is not dismissed or bonded against within one hundred twenty (120) days after the filing thereof, shall at Landlord’s option, constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant.  Upon the happening of any such event or at any time during the duration of such event, this Lease shall terminate five (5) days after notice of termination from Landlord to Tenant.  In no event shall this Lease be assigned or assignable by voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or a proceeding in lieu thereof and in no event shall this Lease or any rights or privileges hereunder be an asset of Tenant under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization proceedings.
 
7.3          Negation of Lien for Rent.  Landlord hereby expressly waives and negates any and all contractual liens and security interests, statutory liens and security interests or constitutional liens and security interests arising by operation of law to which Landlord might now or hereafter be entitled on all property of Tenant now or hereafter placed in or upon the Leased Premises, except for judgment liens, if any.

 
58

 
 
7.4          Attorney’s Fees.  If either party is in default beyond any applicable grace or notice period in the performance of any of the terms of this Lease and the other party employs an attorney in connection therewith, the non-prevailing party agrees to pay the prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and costs, at all levels, before, during and after trial, and on appeal.
 
7.5          No Waiver of Rights.  No failure or delay of Landlord or Tenant in any one instance to exercise any remedy or power given it herein or to insist upon strict compliance by Tenant or Landlord of any obligation imposed on it herein in any other instance and no custom or practice of either party hereto at variance with any term hereof shall constitute a waiver or a modification of the terms hereof by such party in any one instance or any right it has herein to demand strict compliance with the terms hereof by the other party in any other instance.  No express waiver shall affect any condition, covenant, rule, or regulation other than the one specified in such waiver and then only for the time and in the manner specified in such waiver.  No person has or shall have any authority to waive any provision of this Lease unless such waiver is expressly made in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Landlord or Tenant.  No endorsement or statement on any check or 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 provided in this Lease.
 
7.6          Holding Over.
 
(a)           Except as provided in Section 7.6(b), in the event of holding over by Tenant after expiration or termination of this Lease without the written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall pay for the entire holdover period as liquidated damages, solely for such holding over, one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Annual Basic Rent that would have been payable if the Lease had not so terminated or expired plus one hundred fifty percent (150%) of all Rent other than Annual Basic Rent (including Tenant’s Operating Expense Share and Tenant’s Tax Share) that would have been payable if this Lease had not so terminated or expired.  Nothing in this Section 7.6(a) shall be construed as granting Tenant a right to retain possession of the Leased Premises, or as limiting Landlord’s right to recover possession of the Leased Premises, after the expiration or termination of this Lease as to such Leased Premises.
 
(b)           Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.6(a), Tenant shall be permitted to holdover in the Leased Premises, or a portion thereof, for a period of time not to exceed sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Term (whether the Initial Term or the Term as renewed) if and only if: (1) Landlord has not already leased the portion of the Leased Premises in which Tenant is holding over, and (2) Tenant gives Landlord written notice of such intent to holdover within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Term; such written notice shall specify the length of time Tenant intends to holdover and the portion of the Leased Premises in which Tenant intends to holdover.  If Tenant elects to holdover pursuant to the preceding sentence, such holdover will be on an AS-IS basis except that the Annual Basic Rent shall be one-hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Annual Basic Rent applicable to such Leased Premises immediately prior to such holdover.

 
59

 
 
7.7           Subordination.  Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that as of the Commencement Date, there is no ground lease or other superior lease presently encumbering the Leased Premised, and no mortgage or deed of trust lien presently encumbering the Leased Premises.  Landlord will provide to Tenant, within thirty (30) days following the recording of a mortgage or deed of trust encumbering a Property (the holder thereof, or of a ground lease or other superior lease to which this Lease may hereafter be subject, being hereafter referred to as an “Interest Holder”), a non-disturbance agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D or such other form as shall be reasonably satisfactory to Tenant and such Interest Holder, and such form in any event shall specifically include provisions that, in the case of a deed of trust or mortgage, in the event of any foreclosure or other enforcement under the mortgage or deed of trust, either by judicial proceeding or by power of sale, or if conveyance or transfer of the Property shall be made in lieu of foreclosure, or in the case of a lease, in the event of any termination of the lease for any reason (whether or not because of exercise by lessor of any right or remedy) or any enforcement of remedies by the lessor thereof (any such foreclosure or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, and any such lease termination or enforcement of lease remedies, being herein referred to as “Enforcement”), then this Lease shall not be terminated as a result of such Enforcement, whether by operation of law or otherwise, but rather, notwithstanding such Enforcement, and the fact that this Lease is subordinate to the deed of trust mortgage or lease (as the case may be), this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a binding lease agreement between Owner and Tenant in accordance with its provisions, and the rights of Tenant under this Lease shall not be interfered with nor disturbed by any party owning the Property or any interest therein as a result of Enforcement, or such party’s successors and assigns (any such owner, and its successors and assigns, being herein called “Owner”).  However, nothing herein shall negate the right of Owner to exercise the rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease, including the right to terminate this Lease as provided herein in the event of a default by Tenant under this Lease, and as to any default by Tenant under this Lease existing at the time of Enforcement, such Enforcement shall not operate to waive or abate any action initiated by Landlord under this Lease to terminate the same on account of such default.  Tenant agrees to subordinate its interest under this Lease to any ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust lien hereafter placed on the Property; provided that as a condition to such subordination, the party to whose interest Tenant subordinates its interest hereunder shall execute and deliver to Tenant a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in the form attached as Exhibit D, or in another form otherwise meeting the requirements of this Section.  Unless and until a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement is entered into between Tenant and the applicable party, the holder of any ground or land lease that may now affect any of the Land or the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust that may now encumber the Property may elect at any time to cause their interests in the Land or the Property to be subordinate and junior to Tenant’s interest under this Lease by filing an instrument in the real property records of the county in which the Building is located effecting such election and providing Tenant with notice of such election.
 
7.8           Estoppel Certificate.  At the request of either Landlord or Tenant, the other party will execute within ten (10) business days from the date of receipt of the request, from time to time, an estoppel certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E or in such other form as may be reasonably requested by the requesting party; provided that any request submitted by Landlord requesting an estoppel certificate by Tenant shall be accompanied by an estoppel certificate executed by Landlord indicating whether or not there are any then existing defaults by Tenant under this Lease, and if so, describing said defaults.  Tenant and any third party certifying, to the best of such party’s knowledge and belief, to the facts (if true) described in such certificate.

 
60

 
 
7.9           Subsequent Documents.  Any provision in this Lease for Tenant or Landlord to execute estoppel certificates, subordination, non-disturbance or attornment agreements or other documents pertaining to this Lease, is subject to the requirements that, except as provided in this Lease or otherwise agreed to, any such document must involve no diminution of Tenant’s or Landlord’s rights provided for in this Lease, no additional liability of Tenant or Landlord, and no cost or expense to Tenant or Landlord; and any estoppel certificate regarding Lease defaults or breaches shall be limited to the actual knowledge of the signing representative.
 
7.10           Interest Holder Privileges.  In the event of any Landlord’s Default, Tenant shall give written notice thereof to Landlord and to any Interest Holder whose address shall have been furnished to Tenant, such notice to be delivered to said Interest Holder at the same time notice is delivered to Landlord.  Tenant shall offer such Interest Holder the same opportunity to cure the default as Landlord is entitled, and Tenant shall forbear in the exercise of any rights or remedies in the interim.

SUBLEASING, ASSIGNMENT, LIABILITY, AND CONSENTS
 
8.1          Sublease or Assignment by Tenant.
 
(a)           Tenant shall not (i) assign, convey or otherwise transfer (whether voluntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise) this Lease or any interest hereunder to any party other than to an Affiliate or corporate successor of Tenant or (ii) allow any lien to be placed upon Landlord’s or Tenant’s interest hereunder in and to the Leased Premises or the Properties or the estates or interests created by this Lease.
 
(b)           Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.1(b), Tenant may, at any time during the Term, sublease all or a portion of the Leased Premises; provided that any sublease for a term of longer than five (5) years, other than a sublease to an Affiliate or corporate successor of Tenant or to one or more of Tenant’s vendors for the purpose of allowing such vendors to place their personnel on-site at Tenant’s premises during the duration of the vendor/vendee relationship, shall be subject to and contingent upon Landlord’s right of recapture as provided in this Section 8.1(b).  If Tenant desires to sublet all or any portion of the Leased Premises to a person or entity other than an Affiliate, corporate successor or Tenant vendor for a term of longer than five (5) years, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing at least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which Tenant desires such sublease to become effective (hereinafter referred to in this Section 8.1(b) as the “Transfer Notice”) of the (i) economic terms of the proposed subletting, (ii) the identity of the proposed sublessee, (iii) the area proposed to be sublet (hereinafter referred to as the “Sublet Space”), and (iv) the use to be made by such sublessee of such Sublet Space.  The Transfer Notice shall also state in all capital letters (or other prominent display), that Landlord shall be deemed to have declined to recapture the Sublet Space and to have approved the sublease if Landlord fails to respond within twenty (20) days after receipt thereof.  If Landlord fails to respond to such Transfer Notice within twenty (20) days after receipt thereof, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the proposed sublease as set forth in the Transfer Notice.  Tenant agrees to use its reasonable efforts to promptly provide any additional information about a proposed sublease that is reasonably requested by Landlord.  Tenant shall deliver a copy of any such sublease to Landlord promptly after its execution.  If Tenant shall fail to consummate the sublease that was the subject of the Transfer Notice on the same terms as those set forth in the Transfer Notice within ninety (90) days following the date of the Transfer Notice, then Tenant shall be obligated to deliver to Landlord a further Transfer Notice in regard to the proposed sublease, and the process shall be repeated until the sublease shall be signed within the time and on the terms required, or Landlord shall elect to recapture the Sublet Space.  If Landlord elects to recapture the Sublet Space, upon such recapture and Tenant’s surrender and Landlord’s acceptance of the Sublet Space, (i) Tenant shall be released from its obligations under this Lease for the remainder of the Term of this Lease as they relate to the recaptured Sublet Space only, including Tenant’s obligation to pay Annual Basic Rent and Tenant’s Operating Expense Share and Tenant’s Tax Share as they relate to the recaptured Sublet Space only, and (ii) Landlord shall pay all leasing commissions, tenant improvement allowances and other costs associated with releasing the recaptured Sublet Space and all costs associated with demising the recaptured Sublet Space for separate occupancy.  No release of Tenant from its obligations under this Lease as they relate to Sublet Space recaptured by Landlord as aforesaid shall be deemed an exercise by Tenant of any Contraction Rights granted to Tenant pursuant to Article XI.

 
61

 
 
(c)           Anything in this Lease contained to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not have the right to sublease all of any portion of the Leased Premises to an organization or person enjoying sovereign or diplomatic immunity.
 
(d)           Each sublessee must fully observe all covenants of this Lease applicable to the Sublet Space, and no consent by Landlord to a sublease shall be deemed in any manner to be a consent to a use not permitted under this Lease.  During the occurrence of an Event of Default by Tenant hereunder, Landlord may collect subrentals directly from a sublessee of the Sublet Space.
 
(e)           Notwithstanding the giving by Landlord of its consent or approval to any subletting, assignment or occupancy as provided in this Section 8.1 or any language contained in such lease, sublease or assignment to the contrary, except to the extent this Lease or any obligation or liability of Tenant hereunder is expressly terminated or released in writing by Landlord, Tenant shall not be relieved of any of Tenant’s obligations or covenants under this Lease and Tenant shall remain fully liable hereunder.
 
(f)           Any attempted assignment, sublease or other transfer by Tenant in violation of the terms and covenants hereof shall be void and shall be a breach under Section 7.1(a)(iii), with respect to which, however, no grace period shall apply.  Any consent or approval by Landlord to a particular assignment, sublease or other transfer shall not constitute Landlord’s consent or approval to any other or subsequent assignment, sublease or other transfer, and any proposed assignment, sublease or other transfer by an assignee, sublessee or transferee of Tenant or any other assignee, sublessee or transferee shall be subject to the provisions hereof as if it were a proposed assignment, sublease or other transfer by Tenant.
 
(g)           Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for reasonable legal fees and costs incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s consideration of any request by Tenant for a Subtenant Non-Disturbance Agreement in connection with a Cost Approved Sublease, it being understood that, if the sublease does not satisfy the criteria for a Cost Approved Sublease, Landlord may grant or withhold its approval of the Subtenant Non-Disturbance Agreement in Landlord’s sole discretion.

 
62

 
 
(h)           If (i) Landlord declines its right of recapture and Tenant thereafter enters into a sublease that satisfies mutually acceptable criteria theretofore established by Landlord and Tenant or (ii) Tenant obtains Landlord’s prior written approval of the particular sublease, including the term, the subtenant, the subrent, the sublease improvement allowances and other material economic and non-economic terms of the sublease before Tenant enters into the sublease with the third party subtenant (a subtenant who is neither an Affiliate, corporate successor of Tenant nor a Tenant vendor); it being understood that, if the sublease does not satisfy the mutually approved criteria, Landlord may grant or withhold its approval of the sublease for purposes of this cost reimbursement in Landlord’s sole discretion (any such sublease, a “Cost Approved Sublease”), then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the unamortized balance (computed without interest on a straight line basis over the basic term of the Cost Approved Sublease, excluding renewals) of the actual, documented leasing commissions and subtenant improvement expenditures made by Tenant in connection with delivering the Sublet Space to the subtenant pursuant to the Cost Approved Sublease, calculated and payable as of the date Tenant surrenders possession of the subject Sublet Space to Landlord.  If so requested by Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, a statement in reasonable detail itemizing Tenant’s sublease improvement expenditures to the Sublet Space and such other and further information and documentation regarding the Cost Approved Sublease as Landlord shall reasonably request.
 
(i)           Any provision of the Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, the rights granted to Tenant pursuant to provisions of Section 1.4 (Options to Renew), Section 3.4 (Building Identity; Signage; Exclusivity), Article IX (Purchase and Sale), Article X (Expansion Rights) and Article XI (Contraction Rights) are personal to the herein named Tenant and any corporate successor or permitted assignee of this Lease and such rights may not be assigned or subleased to, or exercised by, any other person or entity, it being understood that no assignment of this Lease or subletting of all or a portion of the Leased Premises shall cancel or void any of the aforesaid rights as they pertain to the herein named Tenant and any corporate successor permitted assignee of this Lease.  Tenant shall furnish to Landlord copies of any and all subleases executed by Tenant within ten (10) business days following the date such sublease is by its terms effective and whether such sublease is a Cost Approved Sublease and, if so, Tenant’s sublease improvement expenditures incurred in connection therewith.  All subleases shall by their terms be subject and subordinate to this Lease as amended from time to time.
 
(j)           In any instance in which Landlord shall have the right of recapture but Tenant shall, in violation of Section 8.1(b), sublease Sublet Space without first offering the same to Landlord, then without limitation of Landlord’s rights, Landlord shall have the continuing right of recapture pursuant to Section 8.1(b) upon learning of such sublease and so advising Tenant; the twenty (20) day response period reserved to Landlord under Section 8.1(b) being deemed tolled until the date Tenant delivers a Transfer Notice in respect of the Sublet Space and shall run for a period of twenty (20) days thereafter.  If Tenant shall have subleased the Sublet Space at a profit (after deduction of Tenant’s reasonable, documented costs of subleasing) and Landlord thereafter elects to recapture, then Tenant shall be obliged to compensate Landlord, upon Landlord’s demand, in the full amount of such profit from the inception of such sublease to the date of recapture.  Except as provided in this Section 8.1(j), Tenant shall retain any and all profits on subleasing.

 
63

 
 
8.2           Assignment by Landlord.  At any time after the Commencement Date, but subject to the provisions of Section 9.3, Landlord shall have the right to transfer, assign or convey, in whole or in part, the Properties of which the Leased Premises are a part, or any portion or portions thereof, and any and all of its rights under this Lease, and in the event Landlord transfers, assigns, or conveys its rights and obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall thereby be released from any future obligations hereunder and Tenant agrees to look solely to such successor in interest of the Landlord for performance of such future obligations to the extent such successor in interest has, by written instrument of which a copy has been delivered to Tenant, assumed all of the liabilities and obligations of its predecessor in interest under this Lease accruing from and after the date of such transfer, assignment or conveyance; the foregoing provision shall not release the transferring Landlord from any obligation or liability which has not been assumed by such successor in interest of Landlord.  Except for such release of the prior Landlord, in no event shall any transfer, assignment or conveyance affect or otherwise impair the rights of Tenant to accrued self-help, abatement or other rights and remedies of Tenant hereunder arising out of any breach of an express warranty or representation of any Landlord contained in this Lease, the failure of any Landlord to perform any covenant of Landlord under this Lease or otherwise arising out of this Lease.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, except as expressly provided in Sections 9.3, no transfer, assignment or conveyance of interest of the transferring Landlord in all or any part of the Property or the Land shall release or reduce, or prejudice Tenant’s rights against the transferring Landlord with respect to, any liabilities or obligations of Landlord which accrued, or relate to any period of time, prior to the date of such transfer, assignment or conveyance.
 
ARTICLE IX
PURCHASE AND SALE
 
9.1           Tenant’s Right of First Refusal to Purchase.  If at any time during the Initial Term of this Lease, Landlord shall receive a bona fide offer (a “Third Party Offer”) from a third party (other than a purchaser making a bid at any sale incidental to the exercise of any remedy provided for in any mortgage encumbering a Building or a Property, or a proposed transaction with an Affiliate of Landlord) to purchase a Major Property, which Third Party Offer is in all respects acceptable to Landlord, and if at the time Landlord receives such Third Party Offer, no Event of Default has occurred hereunder and shall be continuing and the herein named Tenant, or its Affiliates, shall remain in possession of at least thirty-five percent (35%) of the Net Rentable Area of such Major Property, then Landlord shall notify Tenant of such Third Party Offer.  If both of the conditions enumerated in the previous sentence shall be satisfied, Landlord shall notify Tenant of such Third Party Offer and for a period of twenty (20) days after such notice is sent by Landlord, Tenant shall have the exclusive right to accept Landlord’s offer to purchase Landlord’s interest in the Major Property upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Third Party Offer. Tenant shall exercise such right of first refusal, if at all, by delivering its written purchase offer to Landlord within said twenty (20) days after the date of Landlord’s notice. Such purchase shall occur not later than sixty (60) days following Tenant’s acceptance of Landlord’s offer.  On the date of such purchase, Landlord shall convey and assign to Tenant, or its designee, Landlord’s interest in the Major Property in consideration of payment of the sale price therefor, in accordance and upon compliance with the terms and conditions of the Third Party Offer, and this Lease shall terminate with respect to the Leased Premises located in the Major Property conveyed to Tenant.  If Tenant fails to accept Landlord’s offer within such twenty (20) day period, then Landlord shall be free to sell the Major Property for a period of nine (9) months thereafter on the same economic terms and conditions (or on different terms more favorable to Landlord, as seller) without offering the Major Property to Tenant.  If Landlord does not convey its interest in the Major Property within such nine (9) month period, then Tenant’s rights pursuant to this paragraph shall be reinstated.  In no event shall the right of first refusal provided in this Section 9.1 apply to any foreclosure of any Property or the delivery of any deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and such right of first refusal shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon and following a foreclosure or the delivery of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.

 
64

 
 
9.2          Right of First Offer on Sale.
 
(a)           During the Initial Term, with respect to all Properties that are not Major Properties, and during each and any Renewal Term, with respect to all Properties for which Tenant shall have renewed the term hereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.4 of this Lease (as applicable, a “ROFO Eligible Property”), so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder and be continuing, and for so long as the herein named Tenant, or its Affiliates, shall remain in possession of at least thirty-five percent (35%) of the Net Rentable Area of such ROFO Eligible Property (together, the “ROFO Eligible Conditions”), Tenant shall have the right of  first offer to purchase such Properties should Landlord determine to sell such ROFO Eligible Property, as more fully provided below.  In no event shall the right of first offer provided in this Section 9.2 apply to any foreclosure of any Property or the delivery of any deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and such right of first offer shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon and following a foreclosure or the delivery of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.
 
(b)           For so long as the ROFO Eligible Conditions persist, Landlord shall notice Tenant as to the offer price as well as other economic terms upon which Landlord wishes to sell the ROFO Eligible Property, specifying the last date upon which Landlord  will agree to make settlement on such sale.  Tenant shall have thirty (30) days following Landlord’s delivery of such notice within which to respond to such notice. If Tenant does not accept Landlord’s offer within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant’s rights under this Section shall lapse and Landlord shall thereafter be free to market and sell the ROFO Eligible Property upon the same economic terms and for the price stated in the offer for a period of nine (9) months; provided that if Landlord fails to execute a definitive agreement to sell the ROFO Eligible Property within nine (9) months following the date of Landlord’s original notice to Tenant or, within such nine (9) month period, Landlord desires to sell the ROFO Eligible Property for a purchase price or on  economic conditions that are less than the offer price and conditions previously identified to Tenant, Landlord shall re-offer the ROFO Eligible Property to Tenant as set forth above.

 
65

 

9.3           Separate Lease.  If Landlord either (a) conveys a Property to a party that is not an Affiliate of Landlord after complying with the provisions of Sections 9.1 and 9.2, to the extent that the same are applicable, or (b) conveys a Property at which Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage is twenty-five percent (25%) or less to an Affiliate of FSG, if so requested in writing by Landlord, Tenant, as tenant, shall execute a Separate Lease with the new owner of the Property, as landlord, which Separate Lease shall relate solely to the conveyed Property and shall (i) be for the same Term, including Renewal Terms, as would otherwise pertain under this Lease (any such Separate Lease, a “Continuing Term Separate Lease”) or, at Tenant’s election and/or Landlord’s election, but, if at Landlord’s election, subject to disapproval by Tenant in Tenant’s sole discretion, an initial term of five (5) years, with renewal terms of five (5) years each through the Expiration Date (any such Separate Lease, a “Five Year Term Separate Lease”), (ii) be for the same Annual Basic Rent, Excess Basic Rent, if any, and Additional Rent as would otherwise be payable under this Lease (regardless of whether the Separate Lease is a Continuing Term Separate Lease or a Five Year Term Separate Lease) and (iii) otherwise be on all of the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease, except that (A) if the Contraction Premises are located in a Property that is subject to a Continuing Term Separate Lease, Tenant shall exercise the Contraction Rights granted to Tenant under Article XI by entering into a Contraction Assignment (if the Contraction Premises constitutes all of the Leased Premises at the Property) or a Contraction Sublease (if the Contraction Premises constitutes a portion, but less than all, of the Leased Premises at the Property) with FSG or, at FSG’s election, an Affiliate of FSG and (B) Tenant shall have no Contraction Rights under Article XI for any Properties subject to Five Year Term Separate Leases.  Immediately upon the execution of a Separate Lease for a Property by the new owner of the Property and Tenant, this Lease shall terminate with respect to such Property and the Separate Lease shall in all aspects be controlling, except for FSG’s obligation to enter into a Contraction Assignment or a Contraction Sublease, as applicable, to effectuate Tenant’s exercise of Contraction Rights for any Property subject to Continuing Term Separate Leases, which obligation of FSG shall continue so long as Tenant continues to have Contraction Rights under this Lease.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) in no event shall Tenant’s right to elect (without Landlord’s approval) a Five Year Term Separate Lease as provided in this Section 9.3 apply to any foreclosure of any Property or the delivery of any deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and Tenant’s right to elect (without Landlord’s approval) a Five Year Term Separate Lease shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon and following a foreclosure or the delivery of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, and (b) Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent under a Separate Lease shall not commence until Tenant has received at least ten (10) days prior written notice of such third party landlord’s name, address and other payment information.
 
ARTICLE X
EXPANSION RIGHTS
 
10.1          Quarterly Availability Reports.  Landlord shall advise Tenant in writing (each such writing, a “Quarterly Availability Report”) on or about February 10, May 10, August 10 and November 10 during each year of the Initial Term of this Lease of all space then available for leasing in the Properties and in all other properties then owned by Landlord and all other  wholly-owned Affiliates of FSG (any such properties not owned by Landlord being hereinafter referred to as an “Affiliate Owned Property”).  Each Quarterly Availability Report shall list (a) the location of the Property or Affiliate Owned Property at which the space is available, (b) the approximate Net Rentable Area of the available space at each property, (c) the anticipated date of availability and (d) the approximate base rent and estimated additional rent (and other charges) to be paid therefor.  Landlord will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide accurate information in the Quarterly Availability Reports, but Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord does not and shall not represent or warrant the accuracy or completeness of the information contained in such reports or that any space identified as available for leasing in a report shall be available if, as and when Tenant desires to lease such space.  In no event shall Landlord have any liability to Tenant for any inaccurate or incomplete information set forth in a Quarterly Availability Report or shall any failure by Landlord to timely deliver a Quarterly Availability Report to Tenant constitute a Landlord Default under this Lease or provide Tenant with any right or remedy against Landlord or any other person other than an action to specifically enforce Landlord’s obligations under this Section 10.1.

 
66

 
 
10.2        Tenant’s Expansion Notice.
 
(a)           If Tenant shall desire to lease available space at a Property or an Affiliate Owned Property, Tenant shall notify Landlord of such interest (any such notification, a “Tenant’s Expansion Notice”) and identify (a) the Property or the Affiliate Owned Property in which Tenant desires to lease additional space, (b) the approximate Net Rentable Area of the expansion space desired by Tenant, (c) the date by which Tenant desires to occupy the expansion space and (d) whether Tenant is committing, in advance of receiving the Landlord Expansion Response, to lease the space identified in the Tenant Expansion Notice if and when available (any such space, “Pre-Committed Space”) subject to Tenant’s acceptance of Landlord’s determination of the Fair Market Rental Value of such Pre-Committed Space.  Tenant Expansion Notices may also include, or be combined with, Contraction Rights Exercise Notices, as provided in Article XI.
 
(b)           Intentionally Omitted.
 
10.3        Landlord Expansion Response.  Landlord shall, within fifteen (15) days following Landlord’s receipt of a Tenant Expansion Notice, notify Tenant (any such notification, a “Landlord Expansion Response”) if the space identified in Tenant’s Expansion Notice is available for leasing and, if so, (a) the location, approximate Net Rentable Area and configuration of the potential expansion space, (b) the date by which Landlord anticipates that the potential expansion spaces will become available and (c) Landlord’s opinion of the Fair Market Rental Value of the available potential expansion space.  If no potential expansion space that satisfies Tenant’s criteria is available, the Landlord Expansion Response shall so state.
 
10.4        Expansion Space Leases.  Subject to the limitations expressed in Section 10.6, Tenant shall have the right and option (“Expansion Rights”) to lease all or a portion of the space available for leasing in the Properties and in Affiliate Owned Properties as either Coterminous Expansion Space or Short Term Expansion Space, as Tenant may elect, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Article X; provided that all Expansion Space leased (a) during any Renewal Term and (b) in any Affiliate Owned Property shall, regardless of Tenant’s election, be regarded as Short Term Expansion Space.  Tenant shall exercise an Expansion Right by written reply to a Landlord Expansion Response (any such timely reply, an “Expansion Space Acceptance”), which shall specify, with particularity, (a) the location, approximate Net Rentable Area and configuration of the space described in the Landlord Expansion Response that Tenant desires to lease, (b) whether Tenant desires to lease such space for a term that is coterminous with the Term of this Lease (“Coterminous Expansion Space”) or for a term of five (5) years (“Short Term Expansion Space”) and (c) whether Tenant agrees with Landlord’s opinion of the Fair  Market Value of the space that Tenant desires to lease or if Tenant desires to have the same determined by appraisal as provided in Sections 1.4(d) and (e).  All space for which Tenant timely exercises an Expansion Right, either as Coterminous Expansion Space or Short Term Expansion Space, shall be referred to as “Expansion Space”.

 
67

 
 
(a)           Intentionally Omitted.
 
(b)           Coterminous Expansion Space shall be added as Leased Premises under this Lease on the same terms and conditions as apply to all other Leased Premises as then demised hereunder so that (i) the Annual Basic Rent payable for the Coterminous Expansion Space shall be the same as the Annual Basic Rent payable for all other Leased Premises (except Short Term Expansion Space), calculated as the Net Rentable Area of the Coterminous Expansion Space multiplied by the Annual Basic Rent Factor and (ii) the Term of this Lease with respect to the Coterminous Expansion Space shall be coterminous with the Term of this Lease for all other Leased Premises (except Short Term Expansion Space) in the Property in which the Coterminous Expansion Space are located, including any Renewal Terms, as Tenant may elect.  For each square foot of Net Rentable Area of Coterminous Expansion Space added to the Leased Premises by Tenant, Tenant shall receive and be permitted to exercise Relocation Rights as provided in Article XI on Contraction Premises containing up to the same Net Rentable Area; provided that Relocation Rights created by adding any particular Coterminous Expansion Space may only be exercised, if at all, by Tenant’s delivering a Contraction Rights Exercise Notice to Landlord  during the eighteen (18) month period following the date on which such Coterminous Expansion Space was added to the Leased Premises and Tenant began paying Rent thereon (such period for each Coterminous Expansion Space, as applicable, the “Relocation Rights Exercise Period”).
 
(c)           Short Term Expansion Space shall be added as Leased Premises under this Lease on the same terms and conditions as apply to all other Leased Premises as then demised hereunder, except that (i) the Annual Basic Rent payable for the Short Term Expansion Space shall be the Fair Market Rental Value of the Short Term Expansion Space, determined by appraisal as provided in Sections 1.4(d) and (e), (ii) the Term of this Lease with respect to the Short Term Expansion Space shall be the lesser of (A) five (5) years or (B) the then remaining balance of the Term for the remainder of the Leased Premises in the Property in which the Short Term Expansion Space are located, (iii) Tenant shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to Landlord not less than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the then current Term for the Short Term Expansion Space, to renew the Term for the Short Term Expansion Space for one or more periods, as Tenant may elect, each equal to the lesser of (A) five (5) years or (B) the then remaining balance of the Term for the remainder of the Leased Premises in the Property in which the Short Term Expansion Space are located, (iv) the Annual Basic Rent payable in respect of the Short Term Expansion Space during any renewal Term shall be the Fair Market Rental Value of the Short Term Expansion Space, determined as of the date of Tenant’s renewal notice by appraisal as provided in Sections 1.4(d) and (e), (v) Tenant shall not be permitted to exercise Contraction Rights under this Lease with respect to any Short Term Expansion Space and (vi) Short Term Expansion Premises leased by Tenant under this Lease shall constitute “Qualifying Expansion Premises” under the URR Agreement.

 
68

 

(d)           Tenant shall accept all Expansion Space in its “AS - IS” condition, and Rent for all Expansion Space shall commence on the earlier of (i) the date Tenant commences business operation in such Expansion Space or (ii) ninety (90) days following the date on which Landlord delivers such Expansion Space to Tenant free from the rights of other tenants and occupants.  Tenant shall pay all costs incident to Tenant’s relocation to, moving into and making the Expansion Premises ready for Tenant’s use and occupancy, which tenant improvement work shall be performed by Tenant in conformity with the provisions of Section 5.2.
 
(e)           Promptly following Tenant’s timely exercise of an Expansion Right, Landlord and Tenant shall amend the Lease Supplement for the Property in which the Expansion Space are located and Exhibit A to this Lease to reflect the addition of the Expansion Space to the Leased Premises and to confirm the terms thereof, including the Net Rentable Area of the Expansion Space, the Annual Basic Rent payable in connection therewith, the Term of Expansion Space, the change to Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage resulting from the addition of the Expansion Space and the Fair Market Rental Value of any Coterminous Expansion Space for purposes of calculating Excess Basic Rent, if any, determined by appraisal as provided in Sections 1.4(d) and (e).  If the Expansion Space is located in an Affiliate Owned Property, FSG shall cause the Affiliate that owns such property to enter into a separate lease for the Expansion Space with Tenant on the terms and conditions herein set forth and, to the extent applicable, substantially in the form of this Lease.
 
(f)           Tenant’s right to lease less than all of the space identified in the Landlord Expansion Response shall be qualified by the requirement that, if Tenant desires to lease less than full floor in a Building, any available space on such partial floor that is not leased by Tenant must have a size and configuration, as reasonably agreed by Landlord and Tenant, that makes it readily leaseable to third party tenants.
 
10.5        Excess Basic Rent; Recalculation of Termination Rights.  Promptly following the expiration of the Relocation Rights Exercise Period for each Coterminous Expansion Space, Landlord shall determine whether Tenant has exercised, in whole or in part, the Relocation Rights created by adding such Coterminous Expansion Space to the Leased Premises and, if so, the Net Rentable Area of the Contraction Premises so terminated.  If the aggregate Net Rentable Area of the Contraction Premises terminated from this Lease as a result of Tenant’s exercise of the Relocation Rights created by a particular Coterminous Expansion Space is less than the Net Rentable Area of such Coterminous Expansion Space (the Net Rentable Area of any such deficiency, the “Unused Relocation Rights Area”), and if the Fair Market Rental Value of such Coterminous Expansion Space (determined as provided in Section 10.4 and calculated on a cost per Net Rentable Area basis) is greater than the Annual Basic Rent Factor at the time such Coterminous Expansion Space is added to the Leased Premises (the amount of any such excess, expressed in cost per Net Rentable Area, the “FMRV Increment”), Tenant shall pay Landlord additional basic rent (“Excess Basic Rent”) during the Initial Term of this Lease for such Coterminous Expansion Space, calculated as the Unused Relocation Rights Area for such Coterminous Expansion Space multiplied by the FMRV Increment for such Coterminous Expansion Space.  The Excess Basic Rent payable by Tenant during the Relocation Rights Exercise Period for each Coterminous Expansion Space shall be payable, lump sum in arrears, at the time Landlord determines that Excess Basic Rent is payable with respect to such Coterminous Expansion Space.  Thereafter, and continuing during the remainder of the Initial Term, Excess Basic Rent shall be payable monthly, in advance, at the same time that Annual Basic Rent is payable.  Any Excess Basic Rent payable by Tenant shall be increased by one and one-half percent (1.5%) at the beginning of, as applicable, the sixth, eleventh and sixteenth Lease Years; provided that the increase following any period of less than five (5) years shall be pro rata. In the event Tenant is required to pay Excess Basic Rent with respect to any Coterminous Expansion Space as herein provided, effective as of the expiration of the Relocation Rights Exercise Period for such Coterminous Expansion Space, Tenant’s aggregate Termination Rights as described in Section 11.5 shall be increased by an amount equal to the Unused Relocation Rights for such Coterminous Expansion Rights multiplied by six percent (6%), with such product multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Lease Years remaining when the Relocation Rights Exercise Period for such Coterminous Expansion Space commenced and the denominator of which is twenty (20).

 
69

 
 
10.6         Subordination of Expansion Space Rights.  Anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant’s Expansion Rights as provided in this Article X are and shall be subordinate to any rights heretofore or hereafter granted to any other party with respect to space in any and all Properties and Affiliate Owned Property.  Landlord and the owners of Affiliate Owned Property may, at their discretions, lease available space in any and all Properties and Affiliate Owned Property to any other party on such terms and conditions as they shall determine, at any time, including after Landlord’s delivery of a Landlord Expansion Response, but before Landlord’s receipt of an Expansion Space Acceptance with respect to any Expansion Space.  Landlord and the owners of Affiliate Owned Property may choose to use any space that is or about to become vacant within any Property or Affiliate Owned Property for marketing or property management purposes, without notifying or offering such space to Tenant, or giving rise to any right of Tenant hereunder.  Nothing contained in this Article X is intended, nor may anything herein be relied upon by Tenant, as a representation by Landlord or any other party as to the availability of expansion space within any Property or Affiliate Owned Property at any time, and neither Landlord nor the owner of Affiliate Owned Property shall be obligated to lease any space identified as available on any Landlord Expansion Response to Tenant unless, at the time Landlord receives an Expansion Space Acceptance, Landlord or such owner shall not have entered into a letter of intent or a lease agreement with respect to the Expansion Space that is covered by the Expansion Space Acceptance.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not enter into a lease or letter of intent for any space identified in a Tenant Expansion Notice as Pre-Committed Space for a period of thirty (30) days following Landlord’s receipt of the Tenant Expansion Notice identifying such Pre-Committed Space.
 
10.7         Duration.  Tenant’s Expansion Rights under this Article X shall continue throughout the Term until there are fewer than twelve (12) months then remaining in the Term and Tenant has not exercised any then available Renewal Option.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall cause all Separate Leases to include Expansion Rights upon substantially the same the terms and conditions as are set forth in this Article X; provided that Expansion Rights in a Separate Lease shall be limited to leasing available space in the Property subject to such Separate Lease (and not in any other Property or Affiliate Owned Property) and Five Year Term Separate Leases shall only grant Tenant the right and option to lease Short Term Expansion Space.
 
10.8         Disputes.  Landlord and Tenant shall endeavor to resolve, in good faith, any disagreement arising as a result of Tenant's exercise of Expansion Rights under this Article X, failing which such disagreement shall be resolved in accordance with Article XII; provided that no disagreement between Landlord and Tenant regarding the contents of Tenant's Expansion Space Acceptance shall render any otherwise effective Expansion Space Acceptance ineffective.

ARTICLE XI
CONTRACTION RIGHTS
 
11.1         Contraction Rights.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article XI, during the Initial Term of this Lease (but not during any Renewal Terms), Tenant shall have the right and option (“Contraction Rights”) to terminate this Lease from time to time with respect to portions of the Leased Premises (excluding any Short Term Expansion Space) and/or to terminate a Continuing Term Separate Lease with respect to portions of the premises leased under such Continuing Term Separate Lease (excluding any Short Term Expansion Space), as Tenant may elect, either by exercise of Relocation Rights or Termination Rights on the following terms and conditions.
 
11.2         Contraction Rights Exercise Notice.  Tenant shall exercise a Contraction Right by written notice to Landlord (any such notice, a “Contraction Rights Exercise Notice”), which shall specify, with particularity, (a) the location, approximate Net Rentable Area and configuration of the portions of the Leased Premises (excluding any Short Term Expansion Space) and/or portions of the premises leased under Continuing Term Separate Leases (excluding any Short Term Expansion Space) that Tenant desires to vacate and to terminate this Lease and/or a Continuing Term Separate Lease with respect to (such space, the “Contraction Premises”), (b) whether Tenant desires to exercise its Contraction Rights for the Contraction Premises as a Relocation Right or a Termination Right or a combination thereof (and, if a combination, the Net Rentable Areas covered by each such form of Contraction Right), (c) the approximate date on which Tenant shall vacate and surrender possession of the Contraction Premises to Landlord, which date shall be no earlier than sixty (60) days following the date of Tenant’s Contraction Rights Exercise Notice for Relocation Rights and Termination Rights, and (d) Tenant’s determination of the reduction in Rent payable under this Lease and/or Continuing Term Separate Leases that will result from Tenant’s desired surrender of the Contraction Premises.  If Tenant’s Contraction Rights Exercise Notice indicates that Tenant desires to exercise a Relocation Right and, on the date of the Contraction Rights Exercise Notice, Tenant does not have available Relocation Rights sufficient to cover the Net Rentable Area of the Contraction Premises to be terminated by Relocation Rights, Tenant’s Contraction Rights Exercise Notice shall nevertheless be effective as to the entire Contraction Premises identified therein and Tenant shall vacate and surrender possession of such entire Contraction Premises to Landlord, but, on the Contraction Premises Surrender Date, Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent on the Contraction Premises shall terminate as provided in Section 11.6 only as to the number of square feet of Net Rentable Area that Tenant has available Relocation Rights to cover and Tenant shall continue to pay Rent on (but, after the Contraction Premises Surrender Date, shall not have any possessory rights in) the excess portion of the Contraction Premises until the earlier of the date on which (i) Tenant generates the necessary Relocation Rights by adding sufficient additional Coterminous Expansion Space to the Leased Premises and beginning to pay Rent thereon or (ii) Tenant notifies Landlord in writing that Tenant desires to exercise available Termination Rights on the excess Contraction Premises.  The approximate Net Rentable Area of the Contraction Premises shall be as identified by Tenant in Tenant’s Contraction Rights Exercise Notice, subject to final measurement by Landlord in conformity with the Measurement Standard.  Tenant may exercise available Contraction Rights on whole or partial floors at any Property, as Tenant may elect; provided that if Tenant elects to exercise Contraction Rights on less than full floor in a Building, any such partial floor Contraction Premises shall have a size and configuration, as reasonably agreed by Landlord and Tenant, that makes it readily leaseable to third party tenants.

 
71

 
 
11.3         Relocation Rights.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article XI, during the Initial Term of this Lease (but not during any Renewal Terms), Tenant shall have the right from time to time to exercise Contraction Rights by surrendering to Landlord Contraction Premises containing the same or less Net Rentable Area as the Net Rentable Area of Coterminous Expansion Space added to the Leased Premises by Tenant (such rights, “Relocation Rights”); provided that Tenant shall only be permitted to exercise Relocation Rights during the Relocation Rights Exercise Period for the Coterminous Expansion Space that created the applicable Relocation Rights.
 
11.4         Intentionally Omitted.
 
11.5         Termination Rights.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article XI, Tenant shall have the right, exercisable at any time after the expiration of the sixth month of the fourth Lease Year and prior to the expiration of the Initial Term, to exercise Contraction Rights by surrendering to Landlord Contraction Premises containing up to 312,669 square feet of Net Rentable Area, in the aggregate (such rights, “Termination Rights”); provided that (a) until the expiration of the sixth month of the fourth Lease Year, Tenant may not exercise any Termination Rights, (b) prior to the expiration of the sixth month of the ninth Lease Year, Tenant shall only be permitted to exercise Termination Rights by sending Contraction Rights Exercise Notices to Landlord on Contraction Premises containing Net Rentable Area of up to 104,223 square feet, in the aggregate, and (c) prior to the expiration of the sixth month of the fourteenth Lease Year, Tenant shall only be permitted to exercise Termination Rights by sending Contraction Rights Exercise Notices to Landlord on Contraction Premises containing Net Rentable Area of up to 208,446 square feet, in the aggregate.
 
11.6         Contraction Premises Rent.  Annual Basic Rent, Excess Basic Rent, if any, and Additional Rent for the Contraction Premises shall continue to be due and payable until the later of (a) sixty (60) days following the date of Tenant's Contraction Rights Exercise Notice for such Contraction Premises for Relocation Rights or (b) the date on which Tenant shall vacate and surrender possession of the Contraction Premises to Landlord as provided in Section 4.1 (the later such date, the "Contraction Premises Surrender Date").  Tenant shall bear all costs and expenses incident to vacating and surrendering the Contraction Premises in the condition required by this Article XI.  Promptly following the Contraction Premises Surrender Date, Landlord and Tenant shall amend the Lease Supplement for the Property in which the Contraction Premises are located and Exhibit A to this Lease to reflect the termination of the Contraction Premises from the Leased Premises and to confirm the terms thereof, including the reduction in the Net Rentable Area of the Leased Premises, the reduction in Annual Basic Rent and the change to Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage at the Contraction Premises.

 
72

 

11.7         Surrender; Contraction Premises Demising Work.  Tenant shall remove all of Tenant’s personal property from the Contraction Premises on or before the Contraction Premises Surrender Date.  In the event Tenant fails to remove its personal property from the Contraction Premises by such date, Landlord shall have the right to remove and dispose of the same at Tenant’s expense.  Tenant shall deliver the Contraction Premises to Landlord in the condition as it was required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease, reasonable wear and tear and Demising Work, if any, excepted, and subject to the provisions of Section 5.3 and Article VI.  Any failure by Tenant to vacate and surrender possession of the Contraction Premises in conformity with the requirements of this Article XI prior to expiration of the Contraction Premises Surrender Date shall entitle Landlord to exercise the rights and remedies expressed in Section 7.6.  As expeditiously as possible following the Contraction Premises Surrender Date, Tenant shall perform, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, any Demising Work required at the Property in which the Contraction Premises are located as provided in Section 5.7. If Tenant fails to expeditiously commence and complete any Demising Work or if Landlord needs to accelerate completion of all or a portion of the Demising Work at a Property to accommodate Landlord’s leasing of space to third party tenants, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to complete, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, all or a portion of the unfinished Demising Work.
 
11.8         Duration.  Any Contraction Rights under this Article XI, including Relocation Rights and Termination Rights, that remain unexercised on the last day of the Initial Term shall automatically, and without further action of Landlord or Tenant, become null and void, and Tenant shall have no Contraction Rights during any Renewal Term.  Relocation Rights created by adding any particular Coterminous Expansion Space may only be exercised, if at all, during the Relocation Rights Exercise Period for such Coterminous Expansion Space.
 
11.9         Disputes.  Landlord and Tenant shall endeavor to resolve, in good faith, any disagreement arising as a result of Tenant's exercise of Contraction Rights under this Article XI, failing which such disagreement shall be resolved in accordance with Article XII; provided that no disagreement between Landlord and Tenant regarding the contents of Tenant's Contraction Rights Exercise Notice shall render any otherwise effective Contraction Rights Exercise Notice ineffective.
 
ARTICLE XII
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
 
12.1        Approval Procedure; Dispute Resolution.
 
(a)           When the approval or consent by either Landlord or Tenant is required hereunder and such approval or consent may not be expressly withheld in such party’s sole discretion, the parties shall proceed as follows:
 
(i)           The party requesting the approval or consent (the “Requesting Party”) shall submit a written request for approval or consent together with such information and supporting documentation as is reasonably required to evaluate the request to the other party (the “Responding Party”).
 
(ii)           Unless a specific time period for the Responding Party’s response is provided for in this Lease (in which case, such specific time period shall control), the Responding Party shall have ten (10) days to (A) approve in writing the request as submitted, (B) approve in writing the request with conditions, (C) deny in writing the request, or (D) respond with a written schedule of additional information and/or documentation to be submitted by the Requesting Party.  If the Responding Party fails to timely provide any of the above responses, the approval or consent shall be deemed to be given as requested.

 
73

 
 
(iii)           If the Responding Party requests additional information and/or documentation, then within five (5) days after the Requesting Party delivers same to the Responding Party, the Responding Party shall again respond as set forth in clause (ii) above.  If the Responding Party fails to timely respond as set forth in clause (ii) above, the approval or consent shall be deemed to be given as requested.
 
(iv)           All approvals, denials, and requests for additional documentation or information, when given, shall be in writing.
 
12.2        Dispute Resolution.  The parties hereby agree to attempt to resolve all disputes and controversies arising out of or in connection with this Lease or its interpretation, performance or breach, promptly, equitably and in a good faith manner, through discussions and negotiations, but failing same, the parties shall proceed as follows:
 
(a)           Upon the occurrence of any controversy or dispute arising out of or relating to this Lease, or its interpretation, performance or breaches, which the parties have not been able to resolve in the ordinary course through discussions and negotiations within a period of thirty (30) days after the dispute or disagreement arises, each party shall appoint a senior officer of its management, fully authorized to settle the dispute or disagreement, to meet at a mutually agreed time and place not later than twenty (20) days after such appointment, to resolve such dispute or disagreement.  Should a resolution of such dispute or disagreement not be obtained within fifteen (15) days after a meeting of such senior officers for such purpose, either party may then, by written notice to the other, submit the controversy or dispute to arbitration in, on an alternating basis, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania or Charlotte, North Carolina (or in such other cities as Landlord and Tenant shall elect, on an alternating basis).  The arbitration shall be conducted under the auspices of JAMS or its successor.  The arbitration shall be initiated by a party by sending notice (the “Arbitration Notice”) of a demand to arbitrate by registered or certified mail to the other party, and to JAMS.  The Arbitration Notice shall contain a description of the subject matter of the arbitration, the dispute with respect thereto, the amount involved, if any, and the remedy or determination sought.  If the dispute or disagreement involves a Binding ADR Dispute, Landlord and Tenant shall submit the matter to binding arbitration.  If the dispute or disagreement involves a “Major Dispute” the parties may, but shall not be required to submit the matter to non-binding arbitration.
 
(b)           If the dispute or controversy involves the granting, withholding or conditioning of consent or approval of a matter described in Sections 2.4 (Budget), 3.1(b) (Supplemental HVAC), 3.4 (Signage), 3.5 (Communications Equipment), 5.2 (Alterations), 5.7 (Demising Work), 5.8 (Art) and 8.1 (Subletting) hereof (collectively, the “Approval Matters”) or if the dispute or controversy not involving an Approval Matter involves a total cost to either party of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or less (a “Binding ADR Dispute”), and if the parties shall be unsuccessful in their efforts to negotiate a mutually satisfactory resolution of their dispute or disagreement, the parties shall submit the matter to binding arbitration, and JAMS shall provide to the parties a list of three (3) arbitrators, and each party may strike one.  The remaining arbitrator shall serve as the arbitrator for the dispute.  The arbitrator so selected shall furnish Landlord and Tenant with a written decision within thirty (30) days after his or her selection.  The parties agree to arbitrate any Binding ADR Dispute pursuant to JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules as amended from time to time, and as modified to the extent practicable to give effect to the agreement of the parties as stated above in this Section 12.2(b).  Binding ADR Disputes shall not be conducted in person unless either Landlord or Tenant shall request an in-person arbitration.  The decision of the arbitrator in a Binding Dispute shall be final and shall be binding upon the parties, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

 
74

 
 
(c)           If the dispute or controversy not involving an Approval Matter involves more than a total cost to either party of more than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) under this Lease (“Major Dispute”), and if the parties elect to arbitrate, then JAMS shall provide a list of six (6) available arbitrators from which each party shall select one (1) arbitrator, and a third arbitrator shall be selected by the two (2) arbitrators so selected.  The third arbitrator shall be a neutral arbitrator who has not acted for either party (or is Affiliate) within the five (5) years preceding initiation of the arbitration.  The arbitrators, so selected, shall schedule the arbitration within sixty (60) days following the selection of the third arbitrator, and shall render their decision within sixty (60) days after the arbitration is concluded.  If the parties agree to arbitrate any Major Dispute, they shall do so pursuant to JAMS’ Comprehensive Arbitration Rules, as amended from time to time, and as modified to the extent practicable to give effect to the agreement of the parties as stated above in this Section 12.2(c).  In the instance of a Major Dispute, (A) the decision of the arbitrators shall not be final or binding, (B) either party shall have the right to file suit de novo in a court of competent jurisdiction, and (C) any and all statements, admissions, or other representations made during the arbitration by either party shall be deemed privileged, confidential and inadmissible for any and all purposes in any such subsequent litigation.
 
(d)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article XII shall not apply to any disputes, controversies or breaches relating solely to the non-payment of Rent or, unless agreed to by the parties, a Major Dispute.
 
12.3        Conduct of the Arbitration.  Arbitration proceedings hereunder shall be subject to the following additional provisions:
 
(a)           The hearing shall be conducted on a confidential basis without continuance or adjournment;
 
(b)           Any offer made or the details of any negotiation of the dispute subject to arbitration prior to arbitration shall not be admissible;
 
(c)           Each party shall be entitled to all rights and privileges granted by the arbitrators to the other party;
 
(d)           In the arbitration of any Major Dispute, each party shall be entitled to compel the attendance of witnesses or production of documents, and for this purpose, the arbitrators shall have the power to issue subpoenas in accordance with the law of the State of North Carolina;

 
75

 
 
(e)           In the arbitration of any Major Dispute, each party shall have the right (upon leave of the arbitrators) to take depositions and obtain other discovery of the scope and in the manner which the arbitrators deem reasonably necessary to the preparation and presentation of the party’s case;
 
(f)           The arbitrators shall have the power to impose on any party such terms, conditions, consequences, liabilities, sanctions and penalties as the deem necessary or appropriate (which shall be conclusive, final and enforceable as the award on the merits) to compel or induce compliance with discovery and the appearance of, or production of documents in the custody or, any officer, director, agent or employee of a party any Affiliate of such party;
 
(g)           Arbitrators may not award indirect, consequential or punitive damages or issue injunctive relief, and shall have no power to deviate from the provisions of this Lease.
 
(h)           Neither party shall be in default under this Lease with respect to any provision hereof during the time period commencing as of the initial notice of desire to arbitrate and ending on the date of resolution by the arbitrators in the case of binding arbitration and ending on the date of a final, unappealable decision of the court in all other circumstances; provided that during said period of arbitration and/or litigation each party shall continue to perform all duties and obligations required to be performed by such party under this Lease and, with respect to the issue under dispute resolution, shall maintain the status quo.
 
12.4        Alternative Means of Arbitration with AAA.  In the event that JAMS or any successor shall no longer exist or if JAMS or any successor fails to refuses to, or is legally precluded from, accepting submission of such dispute, then the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration before the AAA under the AAA’s commercial arbitration rules then in effect.
 
12.5        Mediation; Litigation.  Unless the parties mutually agree to arbitrate a Major Dispute, prior to either party commencing litigation, the parties shall attempt to mediate such dispute.  Accordingly, except as provided in Sections 12.2(d) or 13.1, no civil action with respect to any dispute or disagreement arising out of or relating to this Lease shall be commenced until the matter has been submitted to JAMS, or its successor, for mediation.  Either party may commence mediation by providing to JAMS and the other party a written request for mediation, setting forth the subject of the dispute and the relief requested.  The parties shall cooperate with JAMS and with one another in selecting a mediator from JAMS’ panel of mediators, and in scheduling the mediation proceedings.  The parties agree that they will participate in the mediation in good faith, and that they will share equally in its costs.  All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys, and by the mediator and any JAMS employees, are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any litigation or other proceeding involving the parties; provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation.  Either party may seek equitable relief prior to the mediation to preserve the status quo pending the completion of that process.  Except for such an action to obtain equitable relief, neither party may commence a civil action with respect to the matters submitted to mediation until after the completion of the initial mediation session, or forty-five (45) days after the date of filing the written request for mediation, whichever occurs first. Mediation may continue after the commencement of a civil action, if the parties so desire.  The provisions of this clause may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, and the prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of all costs, fees and expenses, including attorney’s fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.

THIS AGREEMENT made as of this ____ day of _____, 2005, between GERMAN AMERICAN CAPITAL CORPORATION, a Maryland corporation, having an address at 60 Wall Street, 10th Floor, New York, New York 10019 (hereinafter called "Lender"), and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking association, having an address at 525 North Tryon, 3rd Floor, Charlotte, NC 28255 (hereinafter called "Tenant").
 
WITNESSETH:
 
WHEREAS, by that certain Amended and Restated Master Lease Agreement dated ____________, 2005 (the "Lease") between FIRST STATES INVESTORS 5000A, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (hereinafter called "Landlord"), as landlord, and Tenant, as tenant, Landlord leased to Tenant certain premises (the "Premises") located in the property described in Exhibit A-1 to A-153 annexed hereto and made a part hereof (the "Property"); and
 
WHEREAS, Lender is about to make a loan to Landlord, which loan shall be secured by, among other things, that certain Combined Fee and Leasehold Multistate Mortgage, Deed to Secure Debt, Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Financing Statement, Fixture Filing and Assignment of Leases, Rents, and Security Deposits dated as of June 30, 2003 by Landlord to Lender (together with all amendments, renewals, increases, modifications, replacements, substitutions, extensions, spreaders and consolidations thereof and all re-advances thereunder and addictions thereto, is referred to as the "Security Instrument") encumbering the Property; and
 
WHEREAS, Lender and Tenant desire to confirm their understanding and agreement with respect to the Lease and the Security Instrument.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agree­ments herein contained, Lender and Tenant hereby agree and covenant as follows:
 
1.    The Lease, and all of the terms, covenants, provisions and conditions thereof (including, without limitation, any right of first refusal, right of first offer, option or any similar right with respect to the sale or purchase of the Property, or any portion thereof) is, shall be and shall at all times remain and continue to be subject and subordinate in all respects to the lien, terms, covenants, provisions and condi­tions of the Security Instrument and to all advances and re-advances made thereunder and all sums secured thereby.  This provision shall be self-operative but Tenant shall execute and deliver any additional instruments which Lender may reasonably require to effect such subordination.

 
5

 

2.    So long as (i) Tenant is not in default (beyond any period given in the Lease to Tenant to cure such default) in the payment of rent, percentage rent or additional rent or in the performance or observance of any of the other terms, covenants, provisions or conditions of the Lease on Tenant's part to be performed or observed, (ii) Tenant is not in default under this Agreement and (iii) the Lease is in full force and effect: (a) Tenant's possession of the Premises and Tenant's rights and privileges under the Lease, or any extensions or renewals thereof which may be effected in accordance with any option therefor which is contained in the Lease, shall not be diminished or interfered with by Lender, and Tenant's occupancy of the Premises shall not be disturbed by Lender for any reason whatsoever during the term of the Lease or any such extensions or renewals thereof and (b) Lender will not join Tenant as a party defendant in any action or proceeding to foreclose the Security Instrument or to enforce any rights or remedies of Lender under the Security Instru­ment which would cut-off, destroy, terminate or extinguish the Lease or Tenant's interest and estate under the Lease (except to the extent required so that Tenant's right to receive or set-off any monies or obligations owed or to be performed by any of Lender's predecessors-in-interest shall not be enforceable thereafter against Lender or any of Lender's successors-in-interest).  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, if it would be procedurally disadvantageous for Lender not to name or join Tenant as a party in a foreclosure proceeding with respect to the Security Instrument, Lender may so name or join Tenant without in any way diminishing or otherwise affecting the rights and privileges granted to, or inuring to the benefit of, Tenant under this Agreement.
 
3.    (A)  After notice is given by Lender that the Security Instrument is in default and that the rentals under the Lease should be paid to Lender, Tenant will attorn to Lender and pay to Lender, or pay in accordance with the directions of Lender, all rentals and other monies due and to become due to Landlord under the Lease or otherwise in respect of the Premises.  Such payments shall be made regard­less of any right of set-off, counterclaim or other defense which Tenant may have against Landlord, whether as the tenant under the Lease or otherwise.
 
   (B)   In addition, if Lender (or its nominee or designee) shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under the Lease through possession or foreclosure action, delivery of a deed or otherwise, or another person purchases the Property or the portion thereof containing the Premises upon or following foreclosure of the Security Instrument or in connection with any bankruptcy case commenced by or against Landlord, then at the request of Lender (or its nominee or designee) or such purchaser (Lender, its nominees and designees, and such purchaser, and their respective successors and assigns, each being a "Successor-Landlord"), Tenant shall attorn to and recognize Successor-Landlord as Tenant's landlord under the Lease and shall promptly execute and deliver any instrument that Successor-Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such attornment.  Upon such attornment, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as, or as if it were, a direct lease between Successor-Landlord and Tenant upon all terms, conditions and covenants as are set forth in the Lease.  If the Lease shall have terminated by operation of law or otherwise as a result of or in connection with a bankruptcy case commenced by or against Landlord or a foreclosure action or proceeding or delivery of a deed in lieu, upon request of Successor-Landlord, Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver a direct lease with Successor-Landlord which direct lease shall be on substantially the same terms and conditions as the Lease (subject, however, to the provisions of clauses (i)-(v) of this paragraph 3(B)) and shall be effective as of the day the Lease shall have terminated as aforesaid.  Notwithstanding the continuation of the Lease, the attornment of Tenant thereunder or the execution of a direct lease between Successor-Landlord and Tenant as aforesaid, Successor-Landlord shall not:

 
6

 
 
(i)   be liable for any previous act or omission of Landlord under the Lease;
 
(ii)   be subject to any off-set, defense or counterclaim which shall have theretofore accrued to Tenant against Landlord;
 
(iii)   be bound by any modification of the Lease or by any previous prepayment of rent or additional rent made more than one (1) month prior to the date same was due which Tenant might have paid to Landlord, unless such modification or prepayment shall have been expressly approved in writing by Lender;
 
(iv)   be liable for any security deposited under the Lease unless such security has been physically delivered to Lender or Successor-Landlord; and
 
(v)   be liable or obligated to comply with or fulfill any of the obligations of the Landlord under the Lease or any agreement relating thereto with respect to the construction of, or payment for, improvements on or above the Premises (or any portion thereof), leasehold improvements, tenant work letters and/or similar items.
 
4.    Tenant agrees that without the prior written consent of Lender, it shall not (a) amend, modify, terminate or cancel the Lease or any extensions or renewals thereof, (b) except as expressly provided in the Lease, tender a surrender of the Lease, (c) make a prepayment of any rent or additional rent more than one (1) month in advance of the due date thereof, or (d) subordinate or permit the subordination of the Lease to any lien subordinate to the Security Instrument.  Any such purported action without such consent shall be void as against the holder of the Security Instrument.
 
5.    (A)  Tenant shall promptly notify Lender of any default by Landlord under the Lease and of any act or omission of Landlord which would give Tenant the right to cancel or terminate the Lease or to claim a partial or total eviction.

 
7

 

(B)   In the event of a default by Landlord under the Lease which would give Tenant the right, immediately or after the lapse of a period of time, to cancel or terminate the Lease or to claim a partial or total eviction, or in the event of any other act or omission of Landlord which would give Tenant the right to cancel or terminate the Lease, Tenant shall not exercise such right (i) until Tenant has given written notice of such default, act or omission to Lender and (ii) unless Lender has failed, within thirty (30) days after Lender receives such notice, to cure or remedy the default, act or omission or, if such default, act or omission shall be one which is not reasonably capable of being remedied by Lender within such thirty (30) day period, until a reasonable period for remedying such default, act or omission shall have elapsed following the giving of such notice and following the time when Lender shall have become entitled under the Security Instrument to remedy the same (which reasonable period shall in no event be less than the period to which Landlord would be entitled under the Lease or otherwise, after similar notice, to effect such remedy, or longer than 60 days from notice to Landlord by Tenant), provided that Lender shall with due diligence give Tenant written notice of its intention to and shall commence and continue to, remedy such default, act or omission.  If Lender cannot reasonably remedy a default, act or omission of Landlord until after Lender obtains possession of the Premises, Tenant may not terminate or cancel the Lease or claim a partial or total eviction by reason of such default, act or omission until the expiration of a reasonable period necessary for the remedy after Lender secures possession of the Premises.  To the extent Lender incurs any expenses or other costs in curing or remedying such default, act or omission, including attorneys' fees and disbursements, Lender shall be subrogated to Tenant's rights against Landlord.
 
(C)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation hereunder to remedy such default, act or omission.
 
6.    To the extent that the Lease shall entitle Tenant to notice of the existence of any mortgage and the identity of any mortgagee or any ground lessor, this Agreement shall constitute such notice to Tenant with respect to the Security Instrument and Lender.
 
7.    Upon and after the occurrence of a default under the Security Instru­ment, which is not cured after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, Lender shall be entitled, but not obligated, to exercise the claims, rights, powers, privileges and remedies of Landlord under the Lease and shall be further entitled to the benefits of, and to receive and enforce performance of, all of the covenants to be performed by Tenant under the Lease as though Lender were named therein as Landlord.
 
8.    Anything herein or in the Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that a Successor-Landlord shall acquire title to the Property or the portion thereof containing the Premises, Successor-Landlord shall have no obligation, nor incur any liability, beyond Successor-Landlord's then interest, if any, in the Property, and Tenant shall look exclusively to such interest, if any, of Successor-Landlord in the Property for the payment and discharge of any obligations imposed upon Successor-Landlord hereunder or under the Lease, and Successor-Landlord is hereby released or relieved of any other liability hereunder and under the Lease.  Tenant agrees that, with respect to any money judgement which may be obtained or secured by Tenant against Successor-Landlord, Tenant shall look solely to the estate or interest owned by Successor-Landlord in the Property, and Tenant will not collect or attempt to collect any such judgement out of any other assets of Successor-Landlord.

 
8

 

9.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, Tenant agrees for the benefit of Landlord and Lender that, except as permitted by, and fully in accordance with, applicable law, Tenant shall not generate, store, handle, discharge or maintain in, on or about any portion of the Property, any asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls, or any other hazardous or toxic materials, wastes and substances which are defined, determined or identified as such (including, but not limited to, pesticides and petroleum products if they are defined, determined or identified as such) in any federal, state or local laws, rules or regulations (whether now existing or hereafter enacted or promulgated) or any judicial or administrative interpretation of any thereof, including any judicial or administrative interpretation of any thereof, including any judicial or administrative orders or judgments.
 
10.    If the Lease provides that Tenant is entitled to expansion space, Successor-Landlord shall have no obligation nor any liability for failure to provide such expansion space if a prior landlord (including, without limitation, Landlord), by reason of a lease or leases entered into by such prior landlord with other tenants of the Property, has precluded the availability of such expansion space.
 
11.    Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, Lender shall not, by virtue of this Agreement, the Security Instrument or any other instrument to which Lender may be a party, be or become subject to any liability or obligation to Tenant under the Lease or otherwise.
 
12.    (A)  Tenant acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement satisfies and complies in all respects with the provisions of Section 7.7 of the Lease and that this Agreement supersedes (but only to the extent inconsistent with) the provisions of such Article and any other provision of the Lease relating to the priority or subordi­nation of the Lease and the interests or estates created thereby to the Security Instrument.
 
  (B)   Tenant agrees to enter into a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement with any lender which shall succeed Lender as lender with respect to the Property, or any portion thereof, provided such agreement is substan­tially similar to this Agreement.
 
13.    (A)  Any notice required or permitted to be given by Tenant to Landlord shall be simultaneously given also to Lender, and any right to Tenant dependent upon notice shall take effect only after notice is so given.  Performance by Lender shall satisfy any conditions of the Lease requiring performance by Landlord, and Lender shall have a reasonable time to complete such performance as provided in Paragraph 5 hereof.

 
9

 

 (B)   All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given to Tenant or to Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given only if mailed by United States registered mail, postage prepaid, or if sent by nationally recognized overnight delivery service (such as Federal Express or United States Postal Service Express Mail), addressed as follows:  to Tenant, at the address first set forth above, Attention: Property Services, with a copy to Bank of America, N.A., 901 Main Street, 68th Floor, Dallas, TX 75202-3714, Attention: Michael F.

NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT is entered into as of ________________, 200___, between ____________________ ("Subtenant"), ________________________("Owner"), and Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association (“Sublandlord”).

RECITALS

A.           Owner is the owner of that certain parcel of land described in Exhibit A attached hereto and the improvements thereon (collectively, the "Property").

B.           Sublandlord is the tenant of certain premises ("Premises") within the Property pursuant to a lease dated _______________________ (the "Primary Lease").

C.           Subtenant is the subtenant and Sublandlord is the sublandlord under a certain sublease dated _____________________ (the "Sublease") for a portion of the Premises as described therein (the "Sublet Premises").

D.           Owner, Sublandlord and Subtenant desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the obligations of each party hereto upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Primary Lease, the Sublease or both.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subtenant, Owner and Sublandlord agree as follows:

 
1

 

1.             Subtenant agrees for the benefit of Owner and Sublandlord that:

(a)           Subtenant shall not pay any rent or additional rent more than one (1) month in advance;

(b)           Except as specifically provided in the Sublease, Subtenant will not enter into any agreement for the cancellation of the Sublease or the surrender of the Sublet Premises without Owner's prior written consent;

(c)           Subtenant will not enter into any agreement amending or modifying the Sublease without the prior written consent of Owner, except for amendments or modifications specifically contemplated in the Sublease for confirming the Sublease commencement date, the rent commencement date, the term, the square footage leased, the renewal or extension of the Sublease, or the subleasing of additional space at the Property;

(d)           Subtenant will not terminate the Sublease because of a default thereunder unless Subtenant shall have first given Owner written notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure such default; and

(e)           Subtenant, upon receipt of notice from Owner that the Primary Lease has expired or otherwise been terminated, shall thereafter pay to Owner all rents, income and other sums then or becoming due under the Sublease, and any such payments to Owner shall be credited against the rent or other obligations due under the Sublease as if made to Sublandlord.

2.             If the event of the expiration or earlier termination of the Primary Lease:

(a)           If Subtenant shall not then be in default in the payment of rent or other sums due under the Sublease or be otherwise in material default under the Sublease, the Sublease shall not terminate or be terminated and the rights of Subtenant thereunder shall continue in full force and effect except as provided in the Sublease or this Agreement;

(b)           Subtenant agrees to attorn to Owner as its substitute landlord; Subtenant shall be bound under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Sublease for the balance of the term thereof, including any renewal options which are exercised in accordance with the terms of the Sublease;

(c)           If, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the termination of the Primary Lease results, in whole or in part, in the termination of the Sublease, there shall be deemed to have been created a lease between Owner and Subtenant on the same terms and conditions as the Sublease for the remainder of the term of the Sublease, with renewal options, if any; and

(d)           If Subtenant shall not then be in default in the payment of rent or other sums due under the Sublease or be otherwise in material default under the Sublease, Owner shall be bound to Subtenant under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Sublease.  Subtenant shall, from and after the termination of the Primary Lease, have the same remedies against Owner for the breach of the Sublease that Subtenant would have had under the Sublease against Sublandlord if there had not been a termination of the Primary Lease; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement Owner shall not be:

 (i)           Deemed to have acknowledged, solely as a result of such termination, the validity of any then existing claims of Subtenant against Sublandlord;

 
2

 

(ii)           Liable for any representation or warranty set forth in the Sublease nor for any act or omission of any landlord (including Sublandlord) prior to the date of termination of the Primary Lease except for any repair and maintenance obligations of a continuing nature as of the date of such acquisition;

(iii)          Subject to any offsets or defenses which Subtenant might have against any landlord (including, Sublandlord) prior to the date of termination of the Primary Lease;

(iv)          Liable for the return of any security deposit under the Sublease unless such security deposit shall have been actually deposited with Owner;

(v)           Bound to Subtenant subsequent to the date upon which Owner transfers its interest in the Property to any third party;

(vi)          Liable to Subtenant under any indemnification provisions set forth in the Sublease with respect to matters arising or accruing prior to the date of the termination of the Primary Lease;

(vii)         Bound to Subtenant for the payment of any rent or additional rent by Subtenant to any landlord (including Sublandlord) for more than one month in advance; or

(viii)        Bound by any amendment or modification of the Sublease made without the written consent of Owner except for amendments or modifications specifically contemplated in the Sublease for confirming the lease commencement date, the rent commencement date, the term, the square footage leased, the renewal or extension of the Sublease, or the leasing of additional space at the Property.

The provisions of this paragraph shall be effective and self-operative immediately upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Primary Lease.

(c)           The first Extended Renewal Term shall commence at the expiration of the Initial Renewal Term, and each subsequent Extended Renewal Term shall commence at the expiration of the prior Extended Renewal Term.  Tenant shall exercise its options to renew, if at all, by delivering notice of such election to Landlord not later than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Renewal Term or the expiration of the then current Extended Renewal Term, as the case may be.  IN ORDER TO PREVENT TENANT’S INADVERTENT FORFEITURE OF ANY THEN REMAINING EXTENDED RENEWAL OPTION, IF TENANT SHALL FAIL TO TIMELY EXERCISE ANY AVAILABLE EXTENDED RENEWAL OPTION, TENANT’S RIGHT TO EXERCISE SUCH EXTENDED RENEWAL OPTION SHALL NOT LAPSE UNTIL LANDLORD SHALL DELIVER TO TENANT WRITTEN NOTICE THAT SUCH NOTICE OF EXERCISE HAS NOT BEEN DELIVERED AND TENANT SHALL THEREAFTER FAIL TO EXERCISE SUCH EXTENDED RENEWAL OPTION WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS FOLLOWING THE DELIVERY OF SUCH NOTICE.  [Note: In the event Tenant executes a Continuing Term Separate Lease, references in this Section 1.4(c) to “Initial Renewal Term” shall be changed to “Initial Term”.]

(f)           If Landlord and Tenant are unable to reach a definitive agreement as to the Fair Market Rental Value applicable to Renewal Premises within sixty (60) days following the Renewal Option Notice Date for the applicable Extended Renewal Term, the Fair Market Rental Value will be submitted for resolution in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.4(f).  Within seventy-five (75) days following the Renewal Option Notice Date for the applicable Extended Renewal Term (or, if later, within fifteen (15) days following the date on which either Landlord or Tenant notifies the other party in writing that such notifying party desires to have the Annual Basic Rent for a Extended Renewal Term determined by appraisal), Landlord and Tenant shall each select and engage an Appraiser to determine the Fair Market Rental Value of the Renewal Premises.  If either party fails to select and engage an Appraiser within such time, if such failure continues for more than five (5) business days following such party’s receipt of written notice that states in all capital letters (or other prominent display) that such party has failed to select an Appraiser as required under the Lease and will be deemed to have waived certain rights granted to it under the Lease unless it selects an Appraiser within five (5) business days, the Fair Market Rental Value will be determined by the Appraiser engaged by the other party.  Each Appraiser shall prepare an appraisal report and submit it to both Landlord and Tenant within thirty (30) days following the date on which the last Appraiser was selected.  If the higher of the two appraisals of Fair Market Rental Value does not exceed one hundred five percent (105%) of the lower of the two appraisals of Fair Market Rental Value, then the average of the two (2) appraisals shall be the Fair Market Rental Value for the Renewal Premises.  If the higher of the two appraisals of Fair Market Rental Value exceeds 105% of the lower of the two appraisals of Fair Market Rental Value, then within seven (7) days after receipt by Landlord and Tenant of both appraisal reports, the Appraisers selected by Landlord and Tenant shall agree on a third Appraiser to determine Fair Market Rental Value.  The third Appraiser shall not perform a third appraisal, but shall, within ten (10) days after his or her designation, select one (1) of the two (2) appraisals already performed, whichever of the two appraisals the third Appraiser determines to be closest to Fair Market Rental Value, as the controlling determination of the Fair Market Rental Value.  The decision of the third Appraiser shall be conclusive, and, subject to the limitations expressed in herein, shall be the Fair Market Rental Value for the Renewal Premises for the Extended Renewal Term.  Each party shall pay the costs of its Appraiser and one-half of the cost of the third Appraiser.  The instructions to the Appraisers with respect to the determination of the Fair Market Rental Value applicable to such space will be to determine the Fair Market Rental Value for such space as of the relevant Extended Renewal Term, assuming that such space will be leased on an “AS-IS” basis.  Within thirty (30) days following the determination of the Fair Market Rental Value, Tenant shall elect one (1) of the following options:  (A) to revoke the exercise of the subject Extended Renewal Option, in which event, the Term of this Lease shall automatically, and without further action of Landlord or Tenant, expire on the later of (1) the expiration of the then existing Term or (2) the last day of the calendar month that is six (6) months following the month in which Tenant’s notice of revocation was given to Landlord or (B) to renew the Lease at the rate to be determined in accordance with this Section 1.4(f) after the Fair Market Rental Value has been determined by appraisal.  If Tenant fails to exercise any of the foregoing options within the thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have elected option (A).  If Tenant has elected option (B), Tenant thereby shall have irrevocably exercised its right to renew the Term and Tenant may not thereafter withdraw the exercise of the Extended Renewal Option; in such event the renewal of this Lease shall be upon the same terms and conditions of this Lease, except (i) the Annual Basic Rent during the Extended Renewal Term shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions and (ii) the leasehold improvements for the space in question will be provided in their existing condition, on an “AS-IS” basis at the time the Renewal Term commences.  If the Annual Basic Rent for a Extended Renewal Term has not been determined prior to the commencement of such Extended Renewal Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as of the commencement of the Extended Renewal Term the same Annual Basic Rent as Tenant was paying immediately prior to the commencement of the Extended Renewal Term, subject to adjustment upon final determination.  Once established, the Annual Basic Rent for the Extended Renewal Term will remain fixed for each five (5) year Extended Renewal Term, and be paid monthly in advance.

(g)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 1.4, Tenant’s failure to give the required renewal notice in conformity with the requirements of Section 1.4(a) and (c) shall render the upcoming and all subsequent Renewal Options for the Leased Premises, if there be any, null and void.
 
1.5 Use.  Each of the Leased Premises may be used and occupied by Tenant (and its permitted assignees and subtenants) only for banking and related uses and general business office purposes and such other lawful purposes as are consistent with banking and general office uses being made from time to time by tenants of the Building.  In addition, Tenant may maintain (for use by Tenant and its employees, customers, and invitees):  (a) conference and/or meeting facilities, (b) libraries, (c) non-retail coffee bars, (d) support staff facilities (including word processing and copy facilities), (e) lunchrooms and kitchen facilities for use by Tenant and its employees and invitees, including vending machines and microwave ovens for use by Tenant and its employees and invitees, subject, however, to Legal Requirements, (f) storage space incidental to banking and general business office purposes only, (g) bank and storage vaults, (h) cash vault, (i) telephone call centers, (j) retail banking facilities and (k) any lawful purpose for which the Leased Premises were used on the Commencement Date.  Tenant is not obligated to maintain occupancy in all or any portion of the Leased Premises.  For purposes of this Section 1.5, the term “banking” shall be deemed to include all traditional banking activities as well as the sale of insurance and annuities of all types, trust services, investment and financial advice, and the sale of securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, throughout the Term, Tenant shall not use, or permit the use of, the Leased Premises (or any part thereof) for any Prohibited Uses.  If Tenant receives notice of any material directive, order, citation or of any violation of any Legal Requirement or any insurance requirement, Tenant shall endeavor to promptly notify Landlord in writing of such alleged violation and furnish Landlord with a copy of such notice.
 
1.6 Survival.  Any claim, cause of action, liability or obligation arising during the Term of this Lease in favor of a party hereto and against or obligating the other party hereto shall (to the extent not theretofore fully performed) survive the expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease.

RENTAL AND OPERATING EXPENSES
 
2.1 Rental Payments.
 
(a)           Beginning on the Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent with respect to the Leased Premises, all as applicable and as required by and in conformity with the provisions of this Lease.  Annual Basic Rent shall be due and payable in equal monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month during the Term, in advance.  Tenant’s Operating Expense Share and Tenant’s Tax Share shall be due and payable in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.3.  Unless otherwise specified herein Above Standard Services Rent shall be payable twenty (20) days following Landlord’s submission to Tenant of an invoice therefor.

(c)           Intentionally Omitted.
 
(d)           If the Term commences on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, or if the Term expires on other than the last day of a calendar month, then all installments of Rent that are payable on a monthly basis shall be prorated for the month in which such Term commences or terminates, as the case may be, and the installment or installments so prorated for the month in which such Term commences or terminates, as the case may be, shall be paid in advance.  Said installments for such prorated month or months shall be calculated by multiplying the monthly installment by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days such Rent accrues during said commencement or expiration month, as the case may be, and the denominator of which shall be the actual number of days in the month.  If the Term commences or if the Term expires on other than the first day of a calendar year, then all Rent payable on an annual basis shall be prorated for such commencement or expiration year, as the case may be, by multiplying such Rent by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days of the Term during the commencement or expiration year, as the case may be, and the denominator of which shall be the actual number of days in such commencement or expiration year.  In such event, the foregoing calculation shall be made as soon as is reasonably possible.  Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that the provisions of this Section 2.1(d) shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

(e)           Tenant agrees to pay all Rent as shall become due from and payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease at the times and in the manner provided in this Lease, without abatement (except as specifically provided in this Lease), demand, offset (except as specifically provided in this Lease) or counterclaim, at Landlord’s address as provided herein (or such other address in the continental United States as may be designated in writing by Landlord from time to time).  Tenant shall have the right, at its option, to pay Rent by means of electronic funds transfer to such account and depository institution as Landlord shall specify from time to time upon Tenant’s request.  All Rent owed by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease shall bear interest from the date due thereof until payment is received by Landlord at the Applicable Rate; provided that Landlord shall not be entitled to receive interest during the first thirty (30) days following the payment due date on any overdue amount for which Landlord receives a late charge as provided in Section 2.1(f).  All sums owed by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall bear interest from the date due thereof until payment is received by Tenant at the Applicable Rate.  Any payments made by Landlord or Tenant to the other hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver by such party of any rights against the other party.
 
(f)           Tenant recognizes that late payment of any Rent will result in administrative and other expense to Landlord.  Therefore, other remedies for nonpayment of Rent notwithstanding, (i) in the event any installment of Annual Basic Rent is not received by Landlord on or before the fifth (5th) day of the month for which it is due, and such amount shall remain unpaid for more than five (5) days after Tenant’s receipt of written notice that such amount is past due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to two and one half (2½%) percent of the past due installment of Annual Basic Rent, and (ii) in the event any payment of Additional Rent is not received by Landlord within five (5) days after Tenant’s receipt of written notice that such amount is past due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional charge in an amount equal to the lesser of Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500.00) or one percent (1%) of the overdue amount.  Any notice of overdue payment for which Tenant shall be subject to a late charge shall state, in all capital letters (or other prominent display), that Tenant’s failure to remit payment by the appointed date shall result in the imposition of a late charge.  Landlord may not send any such notice of overdue payment to Tenant prior to the fifth (5th) day following the date such payment is due, and if any such premature notice is sent, it shall be deemed to have been sent on the fifth (5th) day following the date such payment was due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay a late charge on installments of Rent to the extent properly abated or set-off by Tenant pursuant to an express right to do so as set forth in this Lease or to the extent that Tenant’s payment is deficient by an amount that is less than or equal to one (1%) percent of the total amount due; provided that Tenant shall remit the amount of the deficiency promptly upon and, in any extent, within five (5) business days following Tenant’s receipt of written notice from Landlord that the same is past due.  All additional charges described herein are not intended as a penalty, but are intended to liquidate the damages so occasioned to Landlord and to reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s additional costs in processing such late payment, which amounts shall be added to the Rent then due.
 
(g)           Rent received by Landlord shall be applied by Landlord in the following order:  (i) Annual Basic Rent, (ii) Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, (iii) Tenant’s Tax Share, (iv) Above Standard Services Rent and (v) to any remaining items of Rent that are due and unpaid.
 
(h)           In those instances for which the right of offset is expressly provided, Tenant shall be entitled to offset against Rent next coming due any amounts that are owed or payable by Landlord to Tenant under or pursuant to the terms of this Lease as expressed in Article XIII.

(b)           “Operating Expenses,” for each calendar year, shall mean all expenses and costs of every kind and nature (other than as set forth in Section 2.2(c)) that have accrued for a particular calendar year, as reasonably allocated by Landlord and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, computed in accordance with GAAP, on an accrual basis and incurred in connection with the servicing, repairing, maintenance and operation of the Property during each calendar year, including the expenses and costs set forth in items (i) through (xi) below:

(iv)         cost of repairing, maintaining and cleaning the Common Areas of the Property and the furniture and furnishings therein;

(f)           Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each calendar year during the Term or as soon thereafter as possible in the exercise of reasonable diligence, Landlord shall provide Tenant a statement (the “Operating Expense Statement”) prepared by Landlord showing Operating Expenses for such calendar year broken down by component expenses, in reasonable detail, and calculating Tenant’s Operating Expense Share for the applicable year and the prior year.  The Operating Expense Statement shall be certified by Landlord’s group controller or other officer knowledgeable of the facts certified to therein that, to the best of his or her knowledge, the Operating Expense Statement has been prepared in accordance with the definitions and provisions pertaining to Operating Expenses contained in this Lease.  In the event that an Operating Expense Statement indicates that Tenant owes Landlord additional amounts on account of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share for said calendar year, Tenant shall pay the amount due within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Operating Expense Statement.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, Landlord shall be estopped from amending, and hereby waives the right to amend, any Operating Expense Statement not amended by Landlord within three (3) years after the end of the calendar year to which said Operating Expense Statement applies, nor shall Landlord have the right through any other procedures or mechanism to collect any Operating Expense not included on the pertinent Operating Expense Statement after the third anniversary of the last day of the calendar year to which said Operating Expense Statement applies, unless before said third anniversary Landlord has delivered to Tenant a revised  Operating Expense Statement reflecting such revised Operating Expense (with a reasonably detailed explanation of the reasons for any such revision) and made a written demand for payment of said Operating Expense.
 
(g)           Any Operating Expense Statement or other notice from Landlord pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be subject to Tenant’s rights of review and audit set forth in Section 2.4.  Pending the resolution of any dispute, however, Tenant shall make payments in accordance with said Operating Expense Statement or other notice.

(b)           “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean all real estate taxes, assessments and other governmental levies and charges, general and special, ordinary or extraordinary, of any kind and nature (including any interest on such assessments whenever the same are permitted to be paid in installments) which may presently or hereafter be imposed, levied, assessed or confirmed by any lawful taxing authorities which may become due and payable out of or for, or which may become a lien or charge upon or against the whole, or any part, of the Property, including taxes imposed on (i) the gross rents or gross receipts (but not the net income) of the Property and (ii) personal property in the Property owned by Landlord and used in connection with the Property, but only to the extent that the same would be payable if the Property were the only property of Landlord.  If at any time during the Term the present system of ad valorem taxation of real property is changed or supplemented so that in lieu of or in addition to the ad valorem tax on real property there shall be assessed on Landlord or the Property any tax of any nature that is imposed in whole or in part, in substitution for, addition to, or in lieu of any tax that would otherwise constitute a Real Estate Tax, such tax shall be included within the term “Real Estate Taxes,” but only to the extent that the same would be payable if the Property were the only property of Landlord.  Such taxes may include, but shall not be limited to, a capital levy or other tax on the gross rents or gross receipts (but not the net income) of the Property or similar tax, assessment, levy or charge measured by or based, in whole or in part, upon any such gross rents or gross receipts.  There shall be excluded from Real Estate Taxes (i) any realty transfer or similar taxes imposed on Landlord, (ii) taxes and assessments attributable to the personal property of other tenants, (iii) federal, state and local taxes on income, (iv) death taxes, (v) franchise taxes and (vi) any taxes (but not including ad valorem property taxes) imposed or measured on or by the net income of Landlord from the operation of the Property or imposed in connection with any change of ownership of the Property.  In no event shall Real Estate Taxes be included on the amount, if any, by which the value of leasehold improvements of any other tenant of the Building hereafter made (or leasehold improvements already existing and separately charged as an expense to be paid by such tenant) exceed the value of leasehold improvements generally found in the Building.  In the case of Real Estate Taxes that may be paid in installments, only the amount of each installment accruing during a calendar year shall be included in Real Estate Taxes during each calendar year.
 
(c)           At Tenant’s request so long as Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage at the Property is at least thirty-five percent (35%), Landlord shall contest or appeal the validity or amount of Real Estate Taxes for the Property by appropriate proceedings.  Landlord may also contest or appeal the validity or amount of Real Estate Taxes for the Property on Landlord’s own initiative.  Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage of Landlord’s reasonable, out of pocket expenses incurred in any such appeal.  Real Estate Taxes that are the subject of an appeal filed by or on behalf of Landlord shall be paid on the basis of the amount reflected in the tax bill and shall not be adjusted until the final determination of the appeal.  Within thirty (30) days following such final determination, Landlord will refund to Tenant, or Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as applicable, the difference, if any, between Tenant’s Tax Share payments previously made by Tenant and the finally determined amount of Tenant’s Tax Share.
 
(d)           Any Tax Statement or other notice from Landlord pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Tenant’s rights of review and audit set forth in Section 2.4.  Pending the resolution of any dispute, however, Tenant shall make payments in accordance with said Tax Statement or other notice.

2.4 Budget; Audit Rights.
 
(a)           On or before June 1 of each calendar year during the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant for Tenant’s review and comment, a written estimate in reasonable detail of the projected budget for Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes for the Property for the next succeeding calendar year (the “Budget”).  The Budget shall show (i) the estimated amount of Operating Expenses, Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, Real Estate Taxes and Tenant’s Tax Share for the Property, for the next succeeding calendar year, (ii) the estimated amount for each major category of expense that is expected to be included in Operating Expenses during the next succeeding calendar year, including any items that constitute capital expenditures in accordance with this Lease and the amount thereof to be amortized during such calendar year, (iii) the estimated rates to be charged by Landlord for Above Standard Services for the Property during the next succeeding calendar year and (iv) the actual amounts for all such items for the prior calendar year.  It is understood and agreed by Landlord and Tenant that the Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes in the Budget shall be estimated on a reasonable good faith basis taking into consideration, among other things, the actual Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes for the then current calendar year, a good faith estimate of the rate of cost increases during the then current calendar year, the actual known prospective increases to each item in the Budget and a good faith estimate for contingencies for the next succeeding calendar year.  Tenant may disapprove a portion of a proposed Budget only if such portion of the Budget fails to reflect the reasonable and necessary Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes to operate, repair and maintain the Property in conformity with the requirements of this Lease and in accordance with the accepted principles of sound management practices as applied to the operation, repair and maintenance of Comparable Buildings; provided, however, if Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage of the Property is greater than thirty-five percent (35%), (i) Tenant may disapprove Landlord’s decision to replace (and not repair or maintain) any major equipment or system unless Landlord establishes, by certification of a qualified engineer as to whom Tenant has no reasonable objection, that the equipment or system in question is beyond its useful life and that continued repair or maintenance (and not replacement) is not commercially practicable and (ii) Tenant may require Landlord to replace (and not repair or maintain) any major equipment or system if Tenant establishes, by certification of a qualified engineer as to whom Landlord has no reasonable objection, that the equipment or system in question is beyond its useful life and that continued repair or maintenance (and not replacement) is not commercially practicable.  If Tenant disapproves a portion of a proposed Budget, Tenant shall so notify Landlord in writing, which notification shall state, in reasonable detail, the item or items of the proposed Budget disapproved by Tenant and the basis for such disapproval.  Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any differences concerning any proposed Budget.  Landlord shall deliver to Tenant the proposed final Budget for the next succeeding calendar year and the calculation of Tenant’s Occupancy Percentage thereof on or before July 15 of each calendar year; provided that if Tenant fails to approve a proposed Budget on or before July 1 of a preceding calendar year, and if the parties have been unsuccessful in their efforts to resolve any disagreements, either Landlord or Tenant may at any time thereafter submit the Budget for the next calendar year (or any portion thereof) to dispute resolution in accordance with the provisions of Article XII of this Lease, and, in such event, Landlord shall deliver the final Budget to Tenant within thirty (30) days following the completion of the dispute resolution process.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the dispute resolution process regarding the Budget is not completed by January 1 of the calendar year to which such proposed Budget relates, then (A) the costs set forth on the proposed Budget shall be used for all items not the subject of a dispute, and (B) to the extent applicable, the prior year’s budgeted costs shall be used for all items of a proposed Budget that are the subject of a dispute and (ii) in the event that the actual Operating Expenses or Real Estate Taxes incurred by Landlord during a calendar year exceed Landlord’s estimated Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes (including contingencies) for such year as set forth on an approved Budget, Landlord may prepare and submit a revised Budget to Tenant for Tenant’s review and approval (but not more frequently than once during any calendar year).  Upon completion of the dispute resolution process, the new year’s Budget shall be correspondingly adjusted and Tenant’s monthly payment of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share shall likewise be adjusted.  If Landlord determines during the course of a calendar year that a Building is in need of capital repairs, replacements or improvements that are not included in the approved Budget for such Building for such calendar year, Landlord shall so advise Tenant, and Tenant shall review and approve or disapprove the proposed capital repair, replacement or improvement in conformity with the procedures outlined in this Section 2.4(a) as if such repair, replacement or improvement were originally included by Landlord as part of the budget process described above.

(b)           Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall have the right, to be exercised by notice given to Landlord within three (3) years after receipt of an Operating Expense Statement, Tax Statement or other invoice, to audit and/or inspect that portion of Landlord’s books and records pertaining to such Operating Expenses, Real Estate Taxes or other components of Additional Rent, as applicable, for such calendar year; provided such audit and/or inspection commences within ninety (90) days after Tenant’s notice to Landlord and thereafter proceeds reasonably to conclusion, and further provided that Tenant may audit any single year only once unless Landlord has subsequently made revisions to any Operating Expense Statement, Tax Statement or other components of Additional Rent that impact Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, Tenant’s Tax Share or other Additional Rent payment.  Tenant may conduct such audit and/or inspection of Landlord’s books with Tenant’s own employees, or through an accountant or other agent selected by Tenant, or both in combination.  Tenant shall require any accountant or agent selected by Tenant to conduct or assist in such audit and/or inspection to execute and deliver to Landlord a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.  Landlord agrees to cooperate in good faith with Tenant in the conduct of any such audit and/or inspection, and to make Landlord’s books and records of and relating to Operating Expenses, Real Estate Taxes or other components of Additional Rent, as applicable, available to Tenant or Tenant’s agents at one (1) single location.  If Tenant’s audit and/or inspection shows that Landlord’s calculation of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, Tenant’s Tax Share or other components of Additional Rent for the audited/inspected calendar year or years (which shall in no event be prior to the two (2) calendar years immediately preceding the most recently completed calendar year) was overstated by more than four percent (4%), then Landlord shall pay, within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s request, Tenant’s actual reasonable audit/inspection out-of-pocket fees applicable to the audit/inspection of said calendar year statements.  Upon completion of the audit and/or inspection, if the calculation of Tenant’s Operating Expense Share, Tenant’s Tax Share or other components of Additional Rent indicates that Tenant overpaid Rent for any audited calendar year, Landlord shall pay Tenant (in the form of a credit against Rent next due or, upon expiration of this Lease, in the form of Landlord’s check within thirty (30) days after the completion of such audit and/or inspection) an amount equal to such overpayment.  In the event of any such audit or inspection, Landlord shall cause the books and records to be made available during such normal business hours as are prescribed by Landlord at Landlord’s headquarters or main office, which shall be located in the continental United States.  In any case, should Landlord disagree with the results of Tenant’s audit, Landlord and Tenant shall refer the matter to a mutually acceptable independent certified public accountant, who shall work in good faith with Landlord and Tenant to resolve the discrepancy.  The fees and costs of such independent accountant to which such dispute is referred shall be borne by the unsuccessful party and shall be shared pro rata to the extent each party is unsuccessful as determined by such independent certified public accountant, whose decision shall be final and binding.

(e)           To the extent the services described in this Section 3.1 require electricity, water or other utility services supplied by public utilities, Landlord shall not be deemed to be in breach of Landlord’s covenants hereunder because of the failure of a public utility to supply the required services so long as Landlord uses reasonable efforts to cause the applicable public utilities to furnish the same.  No failure by Landlord to furnish the services described in this Section 3.1, nor any cessation thereof for reasons beyond Landlord’s control, shall not render Landlord liable for damages to either person or property, nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor work an abatement of Rent, nor relieve Tenant from fulfillment of any covenant or agreement hereof.  Without limitation of the foregoing and except as otherwise provided below, should any of the equipment or machinery, for any cause, fail to operate or function properly, Tenant shall have no claim for a rebate of Rent or for damages on account of any interruption in services occasioned thereby or resulting therefrom so long as Landlord uses reasonable efforts to promptly repair said equipment or machinery and to restore said services.

(f)           Tenant’s Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment existing as of the Commencement Date are hereby deemed to be approved by Landlord.  Any changes to the existing Communications Equipment and/or Additional Equipment by Tenant shall first be approved by Landlord, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
 
(g)           If Landlord shall place on the roof of any Building communications equipment of its own, or shall grant to any third party the right to locate and maintain any such equipment, all such equipment shall be located, designed and operated so as not to interfere with signals to and from Tenant’s Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment, the installation of which, in accordance with this Section 3.5, predates the installation of such other equipment.  Similarly, any Communications Equipment and Additional Equipment hereafter installed by Tenant shall be located and designed so as not to interfere with signals to and from such other equipment belonging to Landlord or to third parties, that may have previously been installed.  The party responsible for the communications equipment which interferes with equipment previously installed by others shall be required, at its or their expense, to take all measures necessary to eliminate the source of interference caused by such party’s equipment.

6.1 Condemnation.
 
(a)           If all or a portion of the Building or the Leased Premises as would render the continuance of Tenant’s business from the Leased Premises impracticable (as reasonably determined by Tenant) is permanently taken or condemned for any public purpose, this Lease, at the option of Tenant upon the giving of notice to Landlord within twenty (20) days from the date of such condemnation or taking shall forthwith cease and terminate as provided in Section 6.1(c) below.
 
(b)           If all or substantially all of the Property, or so much thereof as to cause the remainder not to be economically feasible to operate, as reasonably determined by Landlord, should be permanently taken or condemned for any public purpose and Landlord terminates all similarly affected leases in the Building that Landlord has the right to terminate, then Landlord shall have the option of terminating this Lease by notice to Tenant within ten (10) days from the date of such condemnation or taking.
 
(c)           If this Lease is terminated as provided in Sections 6.1(a) or (b) above, this Lease shall cease and expire as if the date of transfer of possession of the Leased Premises, the Property, or any portion thereof, was the expiration date of this Lease.

(d)           If this Lease is not terminated by either Landlord or Tenant as aforesaid, Tenant shall pay all Rent up to the date of transfer of possession of such portion of the Leased Premises so taken or condemned and this Lease shall thereupon cease and terminate with respect to such portion of the Leased Premises so taken or condemned as if the date of transfer of possession of the Leased Premises was the expiration date of the Term relating to such portion of the Leased Premises.  Thereafter, the Annual Basic Rent, and Tenant’s Operating Expense Share and Tenant’s Tax Share shall be calculated based on the Net Rentable Area of the Leased Premises not so taken or condemned.  If any such condemnation or taking occurs and this Lease is not so terminated, Landlord shall, within sixty (60) days after the date any portion of the Property is damaged, or the use of any portion of the Property by Tenant and Tenant’s employees and invitees is impeded, because of such condemnation, commence to repair the Property (excluding Tenant’s Business Equipment), so that the remaining portion of the Property, as the case may be, shall constitute a complete architectural unit, reasonably fit for Tenant’s occupancy and business as reasonably determined by Tenant and Landlord.  If Landlord fails to cause such restoration to be substantially completed within one (1) year after the date Landlord commences such restoration work for any reason other than a delay caused by an act or omission of Tenant, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by notifying Landlord in writing of such termination within thirty (30) days after the date that is one (1) year after the date Landlord commences such restoration work.  The one (1) year period described in the preceding sentence shall be automatically extended for each day of delays caused by Force Majeure Events.
 
(e)           In the event of any condemnation or taking of all or a portion of the Leased Premises, and in the event of any condemnation or taking of all or a portion of the Parking Areas or the Property which taking materially adversely affects the value of or Tenant’s use or enjoyment of the Leased Premises, Tenant, at Tenant’s expense may, jointly with Landlord, appear, claim, prove and recover, in proceedings relative to such taking, (i) the value of any fixtures, furniture, furnishings, leasehold improvements and other personal property that were condemned but which under the terms of this Lease Tenant is permitted to remove at the end of the Term, (ii) the unamortized cost of any leasehold improvements that are not so removable by Tenant at the end of the Term and that were installed at Tenant’s expense, (iii) the loss of Tenant’s business as the result of such condemnation and (iv) relocation and moving expenses.
 
(f)           If any taking or condemnation for any public purpose of the Leased Premises or any portion thereof occurs for one hundred eighty (180) days or less and the portion of the Leased Premises not so taken is in Tenant’s reasonable judgment sufficient to allow the conduct of Tenant’s business in the Leased Premises to substantially the same extent and quantity as before the taking (and Tenant, in fact, ceases its use of the Leased Premises for business purposes), then it shall be deemed a temporary taking and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect except that Annual Basic Rent, Tenant’s Operating Expense Share and Tenant’s Tax Share shall be calculated based on the Net Rentable Area of the Leased Premises not so taken, for the period of time that the Leased Premises are so taken as of the date of transfer of possession of the Leased Premises and Landlord shall be under no obligation to make any repairs or alterations.
 
6.2 Damages from Certain Causes.  Except as provided in Section 3.1 and Section 6.6, and subject to Landlord’s obligations to restore, repair and maintain as specifically provided in this Lease, Landlord shall not be liable or responsible to Tenant for any loss or damage to any property or person occasioned by theft, fire, act of God, public enemy, riot, strike, insurrection, war, requisition or order of governmental body or authority, court order or injunction, or any other cause beyond Landlord’s control.

(b)          Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease on account of a Casualty by delivering written notice to Tenant within forty-five (45) days after a Qualified Damage; provided that Landlord also terminates all other similarly affected tenant leases that Landlord has a right to terminate as a result of such Casualty.  As used herein, a “Qualified Damage” shall mean any one or more of the following:
 
(i)           There shall be damage to an extent greater than fifty percent (50%) of the replacement cost of the Building above the foundation, and such damage or destruction shall be caused by a risk covered by insurance maintained or required to be maintained (whether or not actually maintained) by Landlord pursuant to this Lease (i.e., an “insurable risk”).

(c)          Notwithstanding any language herein to the contrary, if at the time of any substantial damage to the Leased Premises from a Casualty, less than one (1) year remains in the Term, then (i) Landlord shall have the right, in its sole option, to elect not to rebuild or restore the Damaged Property, such right to be exercised, if at all, by written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of such Casualty, and (ii) Tenant shall have the right, in its sole option, to terminate this Lease, such right to be exercised, if at all, within thirty (30) days after the date of such Casualty or within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notice pursuant to Section 6.3(c)(i) .

(v)           Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at anytime thereafter relet the Leased Premises or any part thereof, for such time or times, at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord deems reasonable, and Landlord may make any alterations or repairs to the Leased Premises that are necessary or proper to facilitate such reletting as office space; and Tenant shall pay all costs of such reletting, including the cost of any such alterations and repairs to the Leased Premises and reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred; and Tenant shall continue to pay all Rent due under this Lease up to and including the date of beginning of payment of rent by any subsequent tenant of part or all of the Leased Premises, and thereafter Tenant shall pay monthly during the remainder of the Term the amount, if any, by which the Rent and other charges reserved in this Lease exceed the rent and other charges collected from any such subsequent tenant or tenants (net of the costs Landlord incurred to re-enter and relet the Leased Premises), but Tenant shall not be entitled to receive any excess of any such rents collected over the Rent reserved herein.  Landlord hereby agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Leased Premises to mitigate or otherwise reduce the damages for which Tenant may be liable hereunder, but only to the extent required under applicable law in the state in which the Building is located; provided that in no event shall Landlord’s leasing or attempted leasing of other space in the Building instead of the Leased Premises, in and of itself, violate the provisions of the preceding sentence.  Any such reletting may be for such rent, for such time, and upon such terms as the Landlord, in the Landlord’s good faith discretion, shall determine to be commercially reasonable.  Landlord shall be deemed to have exercised commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Leased Premises so long as Landlord or Landlord’s agents employ marketing methods and procedures substantially similar to marketing methods and procedures used by Landlord or Landlord’s agents to market and lease vacant space in other buildings, which are similar in nature and quality to the Building, owned by Landlord or an affiliate of Landlord.
 
(vi)           Landlord may immediately or at any time thereafter terminate this Lease, and this Lease shall be deemed to have been terminated upon notice to Tenant of such termination; upon such termination Landlord shall elect to either recover from Tenant (A) all damages Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination including all arrearages in rentals, costs, charges, additional rentals, and reimbursements, the cost (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) of recovering possession of the Leased Premises, the actual or estimated (as reasonably estimated by Landlord) cost of any alteration of or repair of the Leased Premises that is necessary or proper to prepare the same for reletting as office space, or (B) all arrearages in rentals, plus an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the present value discounted at the Prime Rate of the total amount of all Rent to be paid by Tenant for the remainder of the Term, over the present value (discounted at the same rate) of the fair market rental value of the Leased Premises for the remainder of the Term.

(c)           If Landlord re-enters the Leased Premises or terminates this Lease pursuant to any of the provisions of this Lease, Tenant hereby waives all claims for damages that may be caused by such re-entry or termination by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Lease.  Tenant shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any loss, cost (including court costs and attorneys’ fees), or damages suffered by Landlord by reason of such re-entry or termination unless caused by Landlord’s gross negligence.
 
(d)           The exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the rights and remedies provided in this Lease shall not prevent the subsequent exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the other rights and remedies herein provided.  Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, remedies provided for in this Lease are cumulative and may, at the election of Landlord, be exercised alternatively, successively, or in any other manner and are in addition to any other rights provided for or allowed by law or in equity.
 
(e)           Landlord may not terminate this Lease unless either (A) Tenant shall have failed to pay, without the contractual right to abate or offset as herein otherwise provided, Rent in an amount equal to or greater than the amount of three (3) months’ Annual Basic Rent then due and payable, and such failure to pay continues for a period of ten (10) days following Tenant’s receipt of written notice thereof from Landlord, which notice shall state in all capital letters (or other prominent display) that this Lease may be terminated if Tenant fails to promptly pay all overdue Rent, or (B) Tenant shall fail to comply with any final order relating to the Property rendered pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures outlined in Article XII within the time periods set forth in such order, or, if no time periods are set forth therein, then within such time period as is reasonably necessary to promptly and diligently comply with such order, but not to exceed sixty (60) days, subject to appropriate extensions for delays caused by Force Majeure Events, and such failure to comply continues for a period of thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of written notice thereof from Landlord, which notice shall state in all capital letters (or other prominent display) that this Lease may be terminated if Tenant fails to promptly comply with the requirements of such order.
 
(f)           If Landlord should fail to perform or observe any covenant, term, provision or condition of this Lease and such default should continue beyond a period of ten (10) days as to a monetary default or thirty (30) days (or such longer period as is reasonably necessary to remedy such default; provided Landlord shall continuously and diligently pursue such remedy at all times until such default is cured) as to a non-monetary default, after in each instance written notice thereof is given by Tenant to Landlord (and a copy of said notice is sent simultaneously therewith to the Notice Parties) (“Landlord Default”), then, in any such event Tenant shall have the right, (i) to cure or attempt to cure the Landlord Default (upon twenty-four (24) hours’ notice in the event of an emergency, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1(f)), and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for all reasonable sums expended in so curing the Landlord Default or (ii) to commence such actions at law or in equity to which Tenant may be entitled.  The exercise by Tenant of any one or more of the rights and remedies provided in this Lease shall not prevent the subsequent exercise by Tenant of any one or more of the other rights and remedies herein provided.  Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, remedies provided for in this Lease are cumulative and may, at the election of Tenant, be exercised alternatively, successively, or in any other manner and are in addition to any other rights provided for or allowed by law or in equity, including the right to claim that Tenant has been constructively evicted.

(g)           Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.1(e) hereof, if Landlord should fail to maintain any policy of insurance which Landlord is required by the terms of this Lease to maintain and such failure continues for a period of ten (10) business days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord and all Notice Parties of such failure, which notice shall (A) specify the insurance policy which Landlord has failed to maintain and the provision of this Lease which requires Landlord to maintain such insurance.  Tenant’s sole and exclusive recourse and remedy for Landlord’s failure to maintain any such policy of insurance shall be limited to the offset right provided in Article XIII.
 
7.2 Insolvency or Bankruptcy.  The appointment of a receiver to take possession of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, or any general assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or any action taken by Tenant under any insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization act, or an involuntary proceeding against Tenant that is not dismissed or bonded against within one hundred twenty (120) days after the filing thereof, shall at Landlord’s option, constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant.  Upon the happening of any such event or at any time during the duration of such event, this Lease shall terminate five (5) days after notice of termination from Landlord to Tenant.  In no event shall this Lease be assigned or assignable by voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or a proceeding in lieu thereof and in no event shall this Lease or any rights or privileges hereunder be an asset of Tenant under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization proceedings.
 
7.3 Negation of Lien for Rent.  Landlord hereby expressly waives and negates any and all contractual liens and security interests, statutory liens and security interests or constitutional liens and security interests arising by operation of law to which Landlord might now or hereafter be entitled on all property of Tenant now or hereafter placed in or upon the Leased Premises, except for judgment liens, if any.
 
7.4 Attorney’s Fees.  If either party is in default beyond any applicable grace or notice period in the performance of any of the terms of this Lease and the other party employs an attorney in connection therewith, the non-prevailing party agrees to pay the prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and costs, at all levels, before, during and after trial, and on appeal.

7.5 No Waiver of Rights.  No failure or delay of Landlord or Tenant in any one instance to exercise any remedy or power given it herein or to insist upon strict compliance by Tenant or Landlord of any obligation imposed on it herein in any other instance and no custom or practice of either party hereto at variance with any term hereof shall constitute a waiver or a modification of the terms hereof by such party in any one instance or any right it has herein to demand strict compliance with the terms hereof by the other party in any other instance.  No express waiver shall affect any condition, covenant, rule, or regulation other than the one specified in such waiver and then only for the time and in the manner specified in such waiver.  No person has or shall have any authority to waive any provision of this Lease unless such waiver is expressly made in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Landlord or Tenant.  No endorsement or statement on any check or 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 provided in this Lease.
 
7.6 Holding Over.
 
(a)           Except as provided in Sections 7.6(b) and (c), in the event of holding over by Tenant after expiration or termination of this Lease and without the written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall pay for the entire holdover period as liquidated damages, solely for such holding over, one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Annual Basic Rent that would have been payable if the Lease had not so terminated or expired plus one hundred fifty percent (150%) of all Rent other than Annual Basic Rent (including Tenant’s Operating Expense Share and Tenant’s Tax Share) that would have been payable if this Lease had not so terminated or expired.  Nothing in this Section 7.6(a) shall be construed as granting Tenant a right to retain possession of the Leased Premises, or as limiting Landlord’s right to recover possession of the Leased Premises, after the expiration or termination of this Lease as to such Leased Premises.
 
(b)           Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.6(a), Tenant shall be permitted to holdover in the Leased Premises, or a portion thereof for a period of time not to exceed sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Term (whether the Initial Term or the Term as renewed) if and only if: (1) Landlord has not already leased the portion of the Leased Premises in which Tenant is holding over, and (2) Tenant gives Landlord written notice of such intent to holdover within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Term; such written notice shall specify the length of time Tenant intends to holdover and the portion of the Leased Premises in which Tenant intends to holdover.  If Tenant elects to holdover pursuant to the preceding sentence, such holdover will be on an AS-IS basis except that the Annual Basic Rent shall be one-hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Annual Basic Rent applicable to such Leased Premises immediately prior to such holdover.

7.7 Subordination.  Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that as of the Commencement Date, there is no ground lease or other superior lease presently encumbering the Leased Premises, and no mortgage or deed of trust lien presently encumbering the Leased Premises.  Landlord will provide to Tenant, within thirty (30) days following the recording of a mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the Property (the holder thereof, or of a ground lease or other superior lease to which this Lease may hereafter be subject, being hereafter referred to as an “Interest Holder”), a non-disturbance agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C or such other form as shall be reasonably satisfactory to Tenant and such Interest Holder, and such form in any event shall specifically include provisions that, in the case of a deed of trust or mortgage, in the event of any foreclosure or other enforcement under the mortgage or deed of trust, either by judicial proceeding or by power of sale, or if conveyance or transfer of the Property shall be made in lieu of foreclosure, or in the case of a lease, in the event of any termination of the lease for any reason (whether or not because of exercise by lessor of any right or remedy) or any enforcement of remedies by the lessor thereof (any such foreclosure or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, and any such lease termination or enforcement of lease remedies, being herein referred to as “Enforcement”), then this Lease shall not be terminated as a result of such Enforcement, whether by operation of law or otherwise, but rather, notwithstanding such Enforcement, and the fact that this Lease is subordinate to the deed of trust mortgage or lease (as the case may be), this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a binding lease agreement between Owner and Tenant in accordance with its provisions, and the rights of Tenant under this Lease shall not be interfered with nor disturbed by any party owning the Property or any interest therein as a result of Enforcement, or such party’s successors and assigns (any such owner, and its successors and assigns, being herein called “Owner”).  However, nothing herein shall negate the right of Owner to exercise the rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease, including the right to terminate this Lease as provided herein in the event of a default by Tenant under this Lease, and as to any default by Tenant under this Lease existing at the time of Enforcement, such Enforcement shall not operate to waive or abate any action initiated by Landlord under this Lease to terminate the same on account of such default.  Tenant agrees to subordinate its interest under this Lease to any ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust lien hereafter placed on the Property; provided that as a condition to such subordination, the party to whose interest Tenant subordinates its interest hereunder shall execute and deliver to Tenant a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in the form attached as Exhibit C, or in another form otherwise meeting the requirements of this Section.  Unless and until a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement is entered into between Tenant and the applicable party, the holder of any ground or land lease that may now affect any of the Land or the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust that may now encumber the Property may elect at any time to cause their interests in the Land or the Property to be subordinate and junior to Tenant’s interest under this Lease by filing an instrument in the real property records of the county in which the Building is located effecting such election and providing Tenant with notice of such election.
 
7.8 Estoppel Certificate.  At the request of either Landlord or Tenant, the other party will execute within ten (10) business days from the date of receipt of the request, from time to time, an estoppel certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E or in such other form as may be reasonably requested by the requesting party; provided that any request submitted by Landlord requesting an estoppel certificate by Tenant shall be accompanied by an estoppel certificate executed by Landlord indicating whether or not there are any then existing defaults by Tenant under this Lease, and if so, describing said defaults.  Tenant and any third party certifying, to the best of such party’s knowledge and belief, to the facts (if true) described in such certificate.
 
7.9 Subsequent Documents.  Any provision in this Lease for Tenant or Landlord to execute estoppel certificates, subordination, non-disturbance or attornment agreements or other documents pertaining to this Lease, is subject to the requirements that, except as provided in this Lease or otherwise agreed to, any such document must involve no diminution of Tenant’s or Landlord’s rights provided for in this Lease, no additional liability of Tenant or Landlord, and no cost or expense to Tenant or Landlord; and any estoppel certificate regarding Lease defaults or breaches shall be limited to the actual knowledge of the signing representative.

7.10 Interest Holder Privileges.  In the event of any Landlord’s Default, Tenant shall give written notice thereof to Landlord and to any Interest Holder whose address shall have been furnished to Tenant, such notice to be delivered to said Interest Holder at the same time notice is delivered to Landlord.  Tenant shall offer such Interest Holder the same opportunity to cure the default as Landlord is entitled, and Tenant shall forbear in the exercise of any rights or remedies in the interim.
 
ARTICLE VIII
SUBLEASING, ASSIGNMENT, LIABILITY, AND CONSENTS
 
8.1 Sublease or Assignment by Tenant.
 
(a)           Tenant shall not (i) assign, convey or otherwise transfer (whether voluntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise) this Lease or any interest hereunder to any party other than to an Affiliate or a corporate successor of Tenant [or to First States Group, L.P. or an affiliate thereof (“FSG”)] (collectively, the “Approved Assignees”) or (ii) allow any lien to be placed upon Landlord’s or Tenant’s interest hereunder in and to the Leased Premises or the Property or the estates or interests created by this Lease.  Tenant shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion and without obtaining Landlord’s consent, to assign this Lease to any of the Approved Assignees.  [Note: Bracketed language shall be used in the event Tenant executes a Continuing Term Separate Lease.]
 
(b)           Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.1(b), Tenant may, at any time during the Term, sublease all or a portion of the Leased Premises; provided that any sublease[: (i) to FSG; or (ii)] for a term of longer than five (5) years, other than a sublease to an Affiliate or corporate successor of Tenant or to one or more of Tenant’s vendors for the purpose of allowing such vendors to place their personnel on-site at Tenant’s premises during the duration of the vendor/vendee relationship, shall be subject to and contingent upon Landlord’s right of recapture as provided in this Section 8.1(b).  If Tenant desires to sublet all or any portion of the Leased Premises to a person or entity other than [FSG or]  an Affiliate, corporate successor or Tenant vendor for a term of longer than five (5) years, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing at least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which Tenant desires such sublease to become effective (hereinafter referred to in this Section 8.1(b) as the “Transfer Notice”) of the (i) economic terms of the proposed subletting, (ii) the identity of the proposed sublessee, (iii) the area proposed to be sublet (hereinafter referred to as the “Sublet Space”), and (iv) the use to be made by such sublessee of such Sublet Space.  The Transfer Notice shall also state in all capital letters (or other prominent display), that Landlord shall be deemed to have declined to recapture the Sublet Space and to have approved the sublease if Landlord fails to respond within twenty (20) days after receipt thereof.  If Landlord fails to respond to such Transfer Notice within twenty (20) days after receipt thereof, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the proposed sublease as set forth in the Transfer Notice.  Tenant agrees to use its reasonable efforts to promptly provide any additional information about a proposed sublease that is reasonably requested by Landlord.  Tenant shall deliver a copy of any such sublease to Landlord promptly after its execution.  If Tenant shall fail to consummate the sublease that was the subject of the Transfer Notice on the same terms as those set forth in the Transfer Notice within ninety (90) days following the date of the Transfer Notice, then Tenant shall be obligated to deliver to Landlord a further Transfer Notice in regard to the proposed sublease, and the process shall be repeated until the sublease shall be signed within the time and on the terms required, or Landlord shall elect to recapture the Sublet Space.  If Landlord elects to recapture the Sublet Space, upon such recapture and Tenant’s surrender and Landlord’s acceptance of the Sublet Space, (i) Tenant shall be released from its obligations under this Lease for the remainder of the Term of this Lease as they relate to the recaptured Sublet Space only, including Tenant’s obligation to pay Annual Basic Rent and Tenant’s Operating Expense Share and Tenant’s Tax Share as they relate to the recaptured Sublet Space only, and (ii) Landlord shall pay all leasing commissions, tenant improvement allowances and other costs associated with releasing the recaptured Sublet Space and all costs associated with demising the recaptured Sublet Space for separate occupancy.  [Note: Bracketed language shall be used in the event Tenant executes a Continuing Term Separate Lease.]

(c)           Anything in this Lease contained to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not have the right to sublease all of any portion of the Leased Premises to an organization or person enjoying sovereign or diplomatic immunity.
 
(d)           Each sublessee must fully observe all covenants of this Lease applicable to the Sublet Space, and no consent by Landlord to a sublease shall be deemed in any manner to be a consent to a use not permitted under this Lease.  During the occurrence of an Event of Default by Tenant hereunder, Landlord may collect subrentals directly from a sublessee of the Sublet Space.
 
(e)           Notwithstanding the giving by Landlord of its consent or approval to any subletting, assignment or occupancy as provided in this Section 8.1 or any language contained in such lease, sublease or assignment to the contrary, except to the extent this Lease or any obligation or liability of Tenant hereunder is expressly terminated or released in writing by Landlord, Tenant shall not be relieved of any of Tenant’s obligations or covenants under this Lease and Tenant shall remain fully liable hereunder.
 
(f)           Any attempted assignment, sublease or other transfer by Tenant in violation of the terms and covenants hereof shall be void and shall be a breach under Section 7.1(a)(iii), with respect to which, however, no grace period shall apply.  Any consent or approval by Landlord to a particular assignment, sublease or other transfer shall not constitute Landlord’s consent or approval to any other or subsequent assignment, sublease or other transfer, and any proposed assignment, sublease or other transfer by an assignee, sublessee or transferee of Tenant or any other assignee, sublessee or transferee shall be subject to the provisions hereof as if it were a proposed assignment, sublease or other transfer by Tenant.
 
(g)           Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for reasonable legal fees and costs incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s consideration of any request by Tenant for a Subtenant Non-Disturbance Agreement, it being understood that Landlord may grant or withhold its approval of the Subtenant Non-Disturbance Agreement in Landlord’s sole discretion.

(h)           If (i) Landlord declines its right of recapture and Tenant thereafter enters into a sublease that satisfies mutually acceptable criteria theretofore established by Landlord and Tenant or (ii) Tenant obtains Landlord’s prior written approval of the particular sublease, including the term, the subtenant, the subrent, the sublease improvement allowances and other material economic and non-economic terms of the sublease before Tenant enters into the sublease with the third party subtenant (a subtenant who is neither an Affiliate, corporate successor of Tenant nor a Tenant vendor); it being understood that, if the sublease does not satisfy the mutually approved criteria, Landlord may grant or withhold its approval of the sublease for purposes of this cost reimbursement in Landlord’s sole discretion (any such sublease, a “Cost Approved Sublease”), then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the unamortized balance (computed without interest on a straight line basis over the basic term of the Cost Approved Sublease, excluding renewals) of the actual, documented leasing commissions and subtenant improvement expenditures made by Tenant in connection with delivering the Sublet Space to the subtenant pursuant to the Cost Approved Sublease, calculated and payable as of the date Tenant surrenders possession of the subject Sublet Space to Landlord.  If so requested by Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, a statement in reasonable detail itemizing Tenant’s sublease improvement expenditures to the Sublet Space and such other and further information and documentation regarding the Cost Approved Sublease as Landlord shall reasonably request.
 
(i)           Any provision of the Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, the rights granted to Tenant pursuant to provisions of Section 1.4 (Options to Renew), Section 3.4 (Building Identity; Signage; Exclusivity), Article IX (Purchase and Sale), and Article X (Expansion Rights) and are personal to the herein named Tenant and any corporate successor or permitted assignee of this Lease and such rights may not be assigned or subleased to, or exercised by, any other person or entity, it being understood that no assignment of this Lease or subletting of all or a portion of the Leased Premises shall cancel or void any of the aforesaid rights as they pertain to the herein named Tenant and any corporate successor permitted assignee of this Lease.  Tenant shall furnish to Landlord copies of any and all subleases executed by Tenant within ten (10) business days following the date such sublease is by its terms effective.  All subleases shall by their terms be subject and subordinate to this Lease as amended from time to time.
 
(j)           In any instance in which Landlord shall have the right of recapture but Tenant shall, in violation of Section 8.1(b), sublease Sublet Space without first offering the same to Landlord, then without limitation of Landlord’s rights, Landlord shall have the continuing right of recapture pursuant to Section 8.1(b) upon learning of such sublease and so advising Tenant; the twenty (20) day response period reserved to Landlord under Section 8.1(b) being deemed tolled until the date Tenant delivers a Transfer Notice in respect of the Sublet Space and shall run for a period of twenty (20) days thereafter.  If Tenant shall have subleased the Sublet Space at a profit (after deduction of Tenant’s reasonable, documented costs of subleasing) and Landlord thereafter elects to recapture, then Tenant shall be obliged to compensate Landlord, upon Landlord’s demand, in the full amount of such profit from the inception of such sublease to the date of recapture.  Except as provided in this Section 8.1(j), Tenant shall retain any and all profits on subleasing.

8.2 Assignment by Landlord.  At any time after the Commencement Date, but subject to the provisions of Section 9.3, Landlord shall have the right to transfer, assign or convey, in whole or in part, the Property of which the Leased Premises are a part, or any portion or portions thereof, and any and all of its rights under this Lease, and in the event Landlord transfers, assigns, or conveys its rights and obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall thereby be released from any future obligations hereunder and Tenant agrees to look solely to such successor in interest of the Landlord for performance of such future obligations to the extent such successor in interest has, by written instrument of which a copy has been delivered to Tenant, assumed all of the liabilities and obligations of its predecessor in interest under this Lease accruing from and after the date of such transfer, assignment or conveyance; the foregoing provision shall not release the transferring Landlord from any obligation or liability which has not been assumed by such successor in interest of Landlord.  Except for such release of the prior Landlord, in no event shall any transfer, assignment or conveyance affect or otherwise impair the rights of Tenant to accrued self-help, abatement or other rights and remedies of Tenant hereunder arising out of any breach of an express warranty or representation of any Landlord contained in this Lease, the failure of any Landlord to perform any covenant of Landlord under this Lease or otherwise arising out of this Lease.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, except as expressly provided in Sections 9.3, no transfer, assignment or conveyance of interest of the transferring Landlord in all or any part of the Property or the Land shall release or reduce, or prejudice Tenant’s rights against the transferring Landlord with respect to, any liabilities or obligations of Landlord which accrued, or relate to any period of time, prior to the date of such transfer, assignment or conveyance.
 
8.3 [Assignment and Sublease by FSG. Note: This Section 8.3 is to be included only in the event that Tenant executes a Continuing Term Separate Lease.]
 
(a)           Any provision of this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event Tenant assigns this Lease or subleases all or a portion of the Premises to FSG (any space so subleased by Tenant to FSG, the “FSG Sublet Space”), FSG shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to further assign FSG’s interest in this Lease or to sublease or sub-sublease, as applicable, all or a portion of the Premises; provided, however, that FSG shall not have the right to assign this Lease or sublease or sub-sublease all or any portion of the Leased Premises to an organization or person enjoying sovereign or diplomatic immunity.
 
(b)           Each sublessee or sub-sublessee, as applicable, must fully observe all covenants of this Lease applicable to the Premises being sublet by FSG.  During the occurrence of an Event of Default by FSG hereunder, Landlord may collect subrentals directly from a sublessee of the Premises being sublet by FSG.  All subleases or sub-subleases shall by their terms be subject and subordinate to this Lease as amended from time to time.
 
(c)           Tenant shall perform, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, any Demising Work required in connection with FSG Sublet Space.

ARTICLE IX
PURCHASE AND SALE
 
9.1 Tenant’s Right of First Refusal to Purchase.  If at any time during the Initial Term of this Lease, Landlord shall receive a bona fide offer (a “Third Party Offer”) from a third party (other than a purchaser making a bid at any sale incidental to the exercise of any remedy provided for in any mortgage encumbering the Building or the Property, or a proposed transaction with an Affiliate of Landlord) to purchase a the Building, which Third Party Offer is in all respects acceptable to Landlord, and if at the time Landlord receives such Third Party Offer, no Event of Default has occurred hereunder and shall be continuing and the herein named Tenant, or its Affiliates, shall remain in possession of at least thirty-five percent (35%) of the Net Rentable Area of the Building, then Landlord shall notify Tenant of such Third Party Offer.  If both of the conditions enumerated in the previous sentence shall be satisfied, Landlord shall notify Tenant of such Third Party Offer and for a period of twenty (20) days after such notice is sent by Landlord, Tenant shall have the exclusive right to accept Landlord’s offer to purchase Landlord’s interest in the Building upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Third Party Offer. Tenant shall exercise such right of first refusal, if at all, by delivering its written purchase offer to Landlord within said twenty (20) days after the date of Landlord’s notice. Such purchase shall occur not later than sixty (60) days following Tenant’s acceptance of Landlord’s offer.  On the date of such purchase, Landlord shall convey and assign to Tenant, or its designee, Landlord’s interest in the Building in consideration of payment of the sale price therefor, in accordance and upon compliance with the terms and conditions of the Third Party Offer, and this Lease shall terminate.  If Tenant fails to accept Landlord’s offer within such twenty (20) day period, then Landlord shall be free to sell the Building for a period of nine (9) months thereafter on the same economic terms and conditions (or on different terms more favorable to Landlord, as seller) without offering the Building to Tenant.  If Landlord does not convey its interest in the Building within such nine (9) month period, then Tenant’s rights pursuant to this paragraph shall be reinstated.  In no event shall the right of first refusal provided in this Section 9.1 apply to any foreclosure of the Building or the Property or the delivery of any deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and such right of first refusal shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon and following a foreclosure or the delivery of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.
 
9.2 Right of First Offer on Sale.
 
(a)           During the Term, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder and be continuing, and for so long as the herein named Tenant, or its Affiliates, shall remain in possession of at least thirty-five percent (35%) of the Net Rentable Area of the Building (together, the “ROFO Eligible Conditions”), Tenant shall have the right of first offer to purchase the Building should Landlord determine to sell it, as more fully provided below.  In no event shall the right of first offer provided in this Section 9.2 apply to any foreclosure of the Building or the delivery of any deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and such right of first offer shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon and following a foreclosure or the delivery of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.
 
(b)           For so long as the ROFO Eligible Conditions persist, Landlord shall notice Tenant as to the offer price as well as other economic terms upon which Landlord wishes to sell the Building, specifying the last date upon which Landlord  will agree to make settlement on such sale.  Tenant shall have thirty (30) days following Landlord’s delivery of such notice within which to respond to such notice. If Tenant does not accept Landlord’s offer within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant’s rights under this Section shall lapse and Landlord shall thereafter be free to market and sell the Building upon the same economic terms and for the price stated in the offer for a period of nine (9) months; provided that if Landlord fails to execute a definitive agreement to sell the Building within nine (9) months following the date of Landlord’s original notice to Tenant or, within such nine (9) month period, Landlord desires to sell the Building for a purchase price or on  economic conditions that are less than the offer price and conditions previously identified to Tenant, Landlord shall re-offer the Building to Tenant as set forth above.

BBD-1 Separate Lease Form
64

 
(a)          Upon the occurrence of any controversy or dispute arising out of or relating to this Lease, or its interpretation, performance or breaches, which the parties have not been able to resolve in the ordinary course through discussions and negotiations within a period of thirty (30) days after the dispute or disagreement arises, each party shall appoint a senior officer of its management, fully authorized to settle the dispute or disagreement, to meet at a mutually agreed time and place not later than twenty (20) days after such appointment, to resolve such dispute or disagreement.  Should a resolution of such dispute or disagreement not be obtained within fifteen (15) days after a meeting of such senior officers for such purpose, either party may then, by written notice to the other, submit the controversy or dispute to arbitration in, on an alternating basis, __________, __________ or Charlotte, North Carolina (or in such other cities as Landlord and Tenant shall elect, on an alternating basis).  The arbitration shall be conducted under the auspices of JAMS or its successor.  The arbitration shall be initiated by a party by sending notice (the “Arbitration Notice”) of a demand to arbitrate by registered or certified mail to the other party, and to JAMS.  The Arbitration Notice shall contain a description of the subject matter of the arbitration, the dispute with respect thereto, the amount involved, if any, and the remedy or determination sought.  If the dispute or disagreement involves a Binding ADR Dispute, Landlord and Tenant shall submit the matter to binding arbitration.  If the dispute or disagreement involves a “Major Dispute” the parties may, but shall not be required to submit the matter to non-binding arbitration.
 
(b)          If the dispute or controversy involves the granting, withholding or conditioning of consent or approval of a matter described in Sections 2.4 (Budget), 3.1(b) (Supplemental HVAC), 3.4 (Building Identity; Signage; Exclusivity), 3.5 (Communications Equipment), 5.2 (Alterations), 5.7 (Art), 5.9 (Demising Work) and 8.1 (Subletting) hereof (collectively, the “Approval Matters”) or if the dispute or controversy not involving an Approval Matter involves a total cost to either party of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or less (a “Binding ADR Dispute”), and if the parties shall be unsuccessful in their efforts to negotiate a mutually satisfactory resolution of their dispute or disagreement, the parties shall submit the matter to binding arbitration, and JAMS shall provide to the parties a list of three (3) arbitrators, and each party may strike one.  The remaining arbitrator shall serve as the arbitrator for the dispute.  The arbitrator so selected shall furnish Landlord and Tenant with a written decision within thirty (30) days after his or her selection.  The parties agree to arbitrate any Binding ADR Dispute pursuant to JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules as amended from time to time, and as modified to the extent practicable to give effect to the agreement of the parties as stated above in this Section 12.2(b).  Binding ADR Disputes shall not be conducted in person unless either Landlord or Tenant shall request an in-person arbitration.  The decision of the arbitrator in a Binding Dispute shall be final and shall be binding upon the parties, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

(c)          If the dispute or controversy not involving an Approval Matter involves more than a total cost to either party of more than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) under this Lease (“Major Dispute”), and if the parties elect to arbitrate, then JAMS shall provide a list of six (6) available arbitrators from which each party shall select one (1) arbitrator, and a third arbitrator shall be selected by the two (2) arbitrators so selected.  The third arbitrator shall be a neutral arbitrator who has not acted for either party (or is Affiliate) within the five (5) years preceding initiation of the arbitration.  The arbitrators, so selected, shall schedule the arbitration within sixty (60) days following the selection of the third arbitrator, and shall render their decision within sixty (60) days after the arbitration is concluded.  If the parties agree to arbitrate any Major Dispute, they shall do so pursuant to JAMS’ Comprehensive Arbitration Rules, as amended from time to time, and as modified to the extent practicable to give effect to the agreement of the parties as stated above in this Section 12.2(c).  In the instance of a Major Dispute, (A) the decision of the arbitrators shall not be final or binding, (B) either party shall have the right to file suit de novo in a court of competent jurisdiction, and (C) any and all statements, admissions, or other representations made during the arbitration by either party shall be deemed privileged, confidential and inadmissible for any and all purposes in any such subsequent litigation.
 
(d)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article XII shall not apply to any disputes, controversies or breaches relating solely to the non-payment of Rent or, unless agreed to by the parties, a Major Dispute.
 
12.3        Conduct of the Arbitration.  Arbitration proceedings hereunder shall be subject to the following additional provisions:
 
(a)          The hearing shall be conducted on a confidential basis without continuance or adjournment;
 
(b)          Any offer made or the details of any negotiation of the dispute subject to arbitration prior to arbitration shall not be admissible;
 
(c)          Each party shall be entitled to all rights and privileges granted by the arbitrators to the other party;
 
(d)          In the arbitration of any Major Dispute, each party shall be entitled to compel the attendance of witnesses or production of documents, and for this purpose, the arbitrators shall have the power to issue subpoenas in accordance with the law of the State of North Carolina;
 
(e)          In the arbitration of any Major Dispute, each party shall have the right (upon leave of the arbitrators) to take depositions and obtain other discovery of the scope and in the manner which the arbitrators deem reasonably necessary to the preparation and presentation of the party’s case;
 
(f)           The arbitrators shall have the power to impose on any party such terms, conditions, consequences, liabilities, sanctions and penalties as the deem necessary or appropriate (which shall be conclusive, final and enforceable as the award on the merits) to compel or induce compliance with discovery and the appearance of, or production of documents in the custody or, any officer, director, agent or employee of a party any Affiliate of such party;
 
(g)          Arbitrators may not award indirect, consequential or punitive damages or issue injunctive relief, and shall have no power to deviate from the provisions of this Lease.

(h)          Neither party shall be in default under this Lease with respect to any provision hereof during the time period commencing as of the initial notice of desire to arbitrate and ending on the date of resolution by the arbitrators in the case of binding arbitration and ending on the date of a final, unappealable decision of the court in all other circumstances; provided that during said period of arbitration and/or litigation each party shall continue to perform all duties and obligations required to be performed by such party under this Lease and, with respect to the issue under dispute resolution, shall maintain the status quo.
 
12.4        Alternative Means of Arbitration with AAA.  In the event that JAMS or any successor shall no longer exist or if JAMS or any successor fails to refuses to, or is legally precluded from, accepting submission of such dispute, then the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration before the AAA under the AAA’s commercial arbitration rules then in effect.
 
12.5        Mediation; Litigation.  Unless the parties mutually agree to arbitrate a Major Dispute, prior to either party commencing litigation, the parties shall attempt to mediate such dispute.  Accordingly, except as provided in Section 12.2(d) or Article XIII, no civil action with respect to any dispute or disagreement arising out of or relating to this Lease shall be commenced until the matter has been submitted to JAMS, or its successor, for mediation.  Either party may commence mediation by providing to JAMS and the other party a written request for mediation, setting forth the subject of the dispute and the relief requested.  The parties shall cooperate with JAMS and with one another in selecting a mediator from JAMS’ panel of mediators, and in scheduling the mediation proceedings.  The parties agree that they will participate in the mediation in good faith, and that they will share equally in its costs.  All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys, and by the mediator and any JAMS employees, are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any litigation or other proceeding involving the parties; provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation.  Either party may seek equitable relief prior to the mediation to preserve the status quo pending the completion of that process.  Except for such an action to obtain equitable relief, neither party may commence a civil action with respect to the matters submitted to mediation until after the completion of the initial mediation session, or forty-five (45) days after the date of filing the written request for mediation, whichever occurs first. Mediation may continue after the commencement of a civil action, if the parties so desire.  The provisions of this clause may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, and the prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of all costs, fees and expenses, including attorney’s fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.
 
ARTICLE XIII

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subtenant, Owner and Sublandlord agree as follows:

1.            Subtenant agrees for the benefit of Owner and Sublandlord that:

(a)          Subtenant shall not pay any rent or additional rent more than one (1) month in advance;

(b)          Except as specifically provided in the Sublease, Subtenant will not enter into any agreement for the cancellation of the Sublease or the surrender of the Sublet Premises without Owner's prior written consent;

(c)          Subtenant will not enter into any agreement amending or modifying the Sublease without the prior written consent of Owner, except for amendments or modifications specifically contemplated in the Sublease for confirming the Sublease commencement date, the rent commencement date, the term, the square footage leased, the renewal or extension of the Sublease, or the subleasing of additional space at the Property;

(d)          Subtenant will not terminate the Sublease because of a default thereunder unless Subtenant shall have first given Owner written notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure such default; and

(e)          Subtenant, upon receipt of notice from Owner that the Primary Lease has expired or otherwise been terminated, shall thereafter pay to Owner all rents, income and other sums then or becoming due under the Sublease, and any such payments to Owner shall be credited against the rent or other obligations due under the Sublease as if made to Sublandlord.

2.            If the event of the expiration or earlier termination of the Primary Lease:

(a)          If Subtenant shall not then be in default in the payment of rent or other sums due under the Sublease or be otherwise in material default under the Sublease, the Sublease shall not terminate or be terminated and the rights of Subtenant thereunder shall continue in full force and effect except as provided in the Sublease or this Agreement;

(b)          Subtenant agrees to attorn to Owner as its substitute landlord; Subtenant shall be bound under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Sublease for the balance of the term thereof, including any renewal options which are exercised in accordance with the terms of the Sublease;

(c)          If, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the termination of the Primary Lease results, in whole or in part, in the termination of the Sublease, there shall be deemed to have been created a lease between Owner and Subtenant on the same terms and conditions as the Sublease for the remainder of the term of the Sublease, with renewal options, if any; and

(d)          If Subtenant shall not then be in default in the payment of rent or other sums due under the Sublease or be otherwise in material default under the Sublease, Owner shall be bound to Subtenant under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Sublease.  Subtenant shall, from and after the termination of the Primary Lease, have the same remedies against Owner for the breach of the Sublease that Subtenant would have had under the Sublease against Sublandlord if there had not been a termination of the Primary Lease; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement Owner shall not be:
 
2


(i)            Deemed to have acknowledged, solely as a result of such termination, the validity of any then existing claims of Subtenant against Sublandlord;

(ii)           Liable for any representation or warranty set forth in the Sublease nor for any act or omission of any landlord (including Sublandlord) prior to the date of termination of the Primary Lease except for any repair and maintenance obligations of a continuing nature as of the date of such acquisition;

(iii)          Subject to any offsets or defenses which Subtenant might have against any landlord (including, Sublandlord) prior to the date of termination of the Primary Lease;

(iv)         Liable for the return of any security deposit under the Sublease unless such security deposit shall have been actually deposited with Owner;

(v)          Bound to Subtenant subsequent to the date upon which Owner transfers its interest in the Property to any third party;

(vi)         Liable to Subtenant under any indemnification provisions set forth in the Sublease with respect to matters arising or accruing prior to the date of the termination of the Primary Lease;

(vii)        Bound to Subtenant for the payment of any rent or additional rent by Subtenant to any landlord (including Sublandlord) for more than one month in advance; or

(viii)       Bound by any amendment or modification of the Sublease made without the written consent of Owner except for amendments or modifications specifically contemplated in the Sublease for confirming the lease commencement date, the rent commencement date, the term, the square footage leased, the renewal or extension of the Sublease, or the leasing of additional space at the Property.

The provisions of this paragraph shall be effective and self-operative immediately upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Primary Lease.

3.           Modification/Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement may not be modified orally or in any other manner except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, their respective heirs, successors and assigns.  Upon expiration or earlier termination of the Sublease, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

4.           Limited Liability.  In all events, the liability of Owner to Subtenant shall be limited and restricted to its interest in the Property (in the case of Owner) and shall in no event exceed such interest.

5.           Owner's Right to Notice of Default and Option to Cure.  Subtenant will give written notice to Owner of any default by any landlord under the Sublease (including Sublandlord) by mailing a copy of the same by certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed as follows (or to such other address as may be specified from time to time by Owner to Subtenant):

To Owner:
 
   
   
   

3

 
Upon such notice, Owner shall be permitted and shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to cure any such default during the period of time during which the landlord would be permitted to cure such default, but in any event Owner shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notification to cure such default; provided, however, that in the event Owner is unable to cure the default by exercise of reasonable diligence within such 30-day period, Owner shall have such additional period of time as may be reasonably required by it to remedy such default with reasonable dispatch.

6.           This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of North Carolina.

Illustration One

Aggregate FMRV for Non-FMRV Renewal Space is greater than the Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space.

Assume the Base Assumptions in Table One above which show that (i) the Renewal Premises includes space at four Properties, (ii) the Renewal Premises at two of the Properties includes FMRV Space (iii) the Annual Basic Rent Factor for the applicable Renewal Term as set forth on Schedule 1 to the Lease is $9.00 per RSF. Also assume the Fair Market Rental Value (determined either by agreement of the parties or by appraisal as provided in the Lease) for each of the Properties is as noted below:

Property
 
FMRV
 
Property A
  $ 15.00/RSF  
Property B
  $ 10.00/RSF  
Property C
  $ 6.00/RSF  
Property D
  $ 8.00/RSF  

Step 1 - Calculate the Aggregate FMRV Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space:

Property
    
Non-FMRV
Renewal Space
         
FMRV
       
FMRV Rent
(A x B)
 
Property A
   
85,000 RSF
      X     $ 15.00/RSF  
=
  $ 1,275,000  
Property B
   
25,000 RSF
      X     $ 10.00/RSF  
=
  $ 250,000  
Property C
   
40,000 RSF
      X     $ 6.00/RSF  
=
  $ 240,000  
Property D
   
75,000 RSF
      X     $ 8.00/RSF  
=
  $ 600,000  
Aggregate FMRV Rent
                            $ 2,365,000  


 
Step 2 - Calculate the Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space:

Property
    
Non-FMRV

Annual Basic
Rent Factor
       
Maximum
Renewal Term
Basic Rent
 
Property A

      X     $ 9.00/RSF  
=
  $ 765,000  
Property B
   
25,000 RSF
      X     $ 9.00/RSF  
=
  $ 225,000  
Property C
   
40,000 RSF
      X     $ 9.00/RSF  
=
  $ 360,000  
Property D
   
75,000 RSF
      X     $ 9.00/RSF  
=
  $ 675,000  
Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent
                            $ 2,025,000  

Step 3 – Allocate Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent for the Renewal Premises amongst the Properties

In this illustration, the Aggregate FMRV Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space exceeds the Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space, requiring a special allocation of the total Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space amongst the Properties according to FMRV.

This allocation is accomplished by reducing the FMRV proportionately for each Property containing Non-FMRV Renewal Space by multiplying it by a fraction, expressed as a decimal, the numerator of which is the Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent (i.e., $2,025,000.00) and the denominator of which is the Aggregate FMRV Rent (i.e., $2,365,000.00):

Rent Adjustment Factor  = 0.85624  (i.e., $2,025,000.00/$2,365,000.00)

Illustration Two

Aggregate FMRV Rent for Non-FMRV Renewal Space is less than or equal to the Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space.

Assume the Base Assumptions shown in Table One above which show that (i) the Renewal Premises includes space at four Properties, (ii) the Renewal Premises at two of the Properties includes FMRV Space (iii) the Annual Basic Rent Factor for the applicable Renewal Term as set forth on Schedule 1 to the Lease is $9.00 per RSF. Also assume the Fair Market Rental Value (determined either by agreement of the parties or by appraisal as provided in the Lease) for each of the Properties is as noted below:

Property

Property A
  $ 10.00/RSF  
Property B
  $ 7.00/RSF  
Property C
  $ 6.00/RSF  
Property D
  $ 8.00/RSF  

Step 1 - Calculate the Aggregate FMRV Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space:

Property

FMRV Rent
(A x B)
 
Property A
   
85,000 RSF
      X     $ 10.00/RSF  
=
  $ 850,000  
Property B
   
25,000 RSF
      X     $ 7.00/RSF  
=
  $ 175,000  
Property C
   
40,000 RSF
      X     $ 6.00/RSF  
=
  $ 240,000  
Property D
   
75,000 RSF
      X     $ 8.00/RSF  
=
  $ 600,000  
Aggregate FMRV Rent
                            $ 1,865,000  

Step 2 - Calculate the Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space:

Property A
   
85,000 RSF
      X     $ 9.00/RSF  
=
  $ 765,000  
Property B
   
25,000 RSF
      X     $ 9.00/RSF  
=
  $ 225,000  
Property C
   
40,000 RSF
      X     $ 9.00/RSF  
=
  $ 360,000  
Property D
   
75,000 RSF
      X     $ 9.00/RSF  
=
  $ 675,000  
Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent
                            $ 2,025,000  
 

 
Step 3 – Allocate Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent for the Renewal Premises

In this illustration, the Aggregate FMRV Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space is less than the Maximum Renewal Term Basic Rent for the Non-FMRV Renewal Space.  No adjustment to FMRV is necessary.
