SmaruCool Systems USA. Inc. PRF 400#219 4'1!2006


Project by fire or other casualty, and any present or other casualty, and any present or future law which purports to govern the rights of Landlord and Tenant in such circumstances in the absence of express agreement, shall have no application.


18. Eminent Domain: In the case of the whole of the Premises, or such part thereof as shall substantially interfere with Tenant's use and occupancy thereof, shall be taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or authority by exercise of the right of appropriation, condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking, either party shall have the right to terminate this lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority.

Tenant shall not assert any claim against Owner or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking, and Owner shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant. In the event the amount of property or the type of estate taken shall not substantially interfere with the conduct of Tenant's business, Owner shall be entitled to the entire amount of the award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant, and Landlord at his option may terminate this Lease. If Landlord does not so elect, Landlord shall promptly proceed to restore the Premises to substantially their same condition as prior to such partial taking, and a proportionate allowance shall be made to Tenant for the rent corresponding to the time during which, and to the part of the Premises of which, Tenant shall be so deprived on account of such taking and restoration. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in any award made to Tenant for the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant.


19. Transfer of Landlord's Interest: In the event of any sale or transfer by Landlord of the building or project of which the Premises are a part, assignment of this Lease by Landlord, Landlord shall be and is hereby entirely freed and relieved of all liability and obligations contained in or derived from this Lease arising out of any act, occurrence or omission relating to the Premises, or the Lease occurring after the consummation of that sale or transfer, provided the purchaser shall expressly assume all of the covenants and obligations of Landlord under this Lease. If any security deposit or prepaid rent has been paid by Tenant, Landlord may transfer the security deposit or prepaid rent to Landlord's successor and upon that transfer, Landlord shall be relieved of liability in connection with those rents and deposits.


20. Interest and Late Charges: If Tenant fails to pay when due any Rent or other amounts or charges which Tenant is obligated to pay under the terms of this Lease, those unpaid amounts shall bear interest at the maximum rate then allowed by law. IN ADDITION TO THAT INTEREST, TENANT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE LATE PAYMENT OF ANTY MONTHLY INSTALLMENT OF BASE RENT OR ADJUSTED BASE RENT WILL CAUSE LANDLORD TO LOSE THE USE OF THAT MONEY AND TO INCUR COSTS AND EXPENSES NOT CONTEMPLATED UNDER THIS LEASE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ADMINISTRATIVE AND COLLECTION COSTS AND PROCESSING AND ACCOUNTING EXPENSES, THE EXACT AMOUNT OF WHICH IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN. THEREFORE, IF ANY INSTALLMENT PAYMENT IS NOT RECEIVED BY LANDLORD WITHIN FIVE (5) DAYS FROM THE DATE THE INSTALLMENT IS DUE, TENANT SHALL PAY LANDLORD A LATE CHARGE EQUAL TO TEN PERCENT (10%) OF THAT INSTALLMENT. LANDLORD AND TENANT AGREE THAT THIS LATE CHARGE REPRESENTS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF LANDLORD'S COSTS AND EXPENSES AND IS FAIR COMPENSATION TO LANDLORD FOR THE LOSS SUFFERED BY REASON OF THAT NONPAYMENT BY TENANT. In addition, following any two (2) consecutive late payments of Rent and/or of additional payments due under this Lease, Landlord shall have the option (i) to require that Base Rent be paid three (3) months in advance, rather than monthly; or (ii) to require that Tenant increase the amount of the Security Deposit required under Section 30 by one hundred percent (100%) (or if there is no such Security Deposit, to pay Landlord a Security Deposit equal to three (3) months Base Rent), which additional Security Deposit shall be promptly paid to and retained by Landlord, and may be applied by Landlord in the manner provided in hereafter. All payments hereunder shall be made in lawful money of the United States. Furthermore, if any payment due from Tenant under this Lease is made by a check which is returned unpaid from the bank on which it is drawn, Landlord shall have the right at any time thereafter to insist that all future payments due from Tenant under this Lease be made by money order or by certified or cashier's check. All payments requiring proration shall be prorated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month. Acceptance of any interest or late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to such nonpayment by Tenant nor prevent Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies available to Landlord under this Lease.


21. Taxes on Tenant's Property: Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay at least ten (10) days before delinquency, taxes levied against any personal property or trade fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on Tenant's personal property or trade fixtures are levied against Landlord or Landlord's property or if the assessed value of the Premises is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant then Landlord, after written notice to Tenant, shall have the right to pay the taxes based upon such increased assessments, regardless of the validity thereof, but only under proper protest if requested by Tenant in writing. If Owner shall do so, then Tenant shall, upon demand, repay to Landlord the taxes levied against Landlord, or the proportion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment, In any such event, Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall have the right, in the name of Landlord and with Landlord's full cooperation, to bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to recover the amount of any such taxes so paid under protest, any amount so recovered to belong to Tenant.


22. Compliance with Law: Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, comply promptly with all applicable statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, covenants and restrictions of record, and requirements in effect during the term or any part of the term hereof, regulating the use by Tenant of the Premises. Tenant shall not use nor permit the use of the Premises in any manner that will tend to create waste or a nuisance or, if there shall be more than one tenant in the building containing the Premises, shall tend to disturb such other tenants.


23. Rules and Regulations: Tenant agrees to comply with (and cause its agents, contractors, employees and invitees to comply with) the Parking and Building Rules and Regulations attached hereto as Exhibit "C" and the Professional Suite Tenant Guidelines attached hereto as Exhibit "E" and with such reasonable modifications of them and additions to them as Landlord may from time to time make. Landlord shall not be responsible for any violation of those rules and regulations by other tenants or occupants of the Stewart Plaza.


24. Sign Control: Tenant shall not affix, paint, erect or inscribe any sign, projection, awning signal or advertisement of any kind to any part of the Building, Premises, or Project. including without limitation, the inside or outside of windows or doors, without the written consent of Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to remove any signs or other matter installed without Landlord's permission, without being liable to Tenant by reason of that removal, and to charge the cost of removal to Tenant as additional rent hereunder, payable within ten (10) days of written demand by Landlord.

(3) The worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus



Page 6

Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease or to withhold, reduce or offset any amount against payments of Rent or any other charges due and payable hereunder except as otherwise specifically provided herein.

31.17. Waiver: No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord on any default by Tenant shall impair such a right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent Rent shall not constitute a waiver of any other default: it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular Rent payment involved, No act or conduct of Landlord, including, without limitation, the acceptance of keys to the Premises, shall constitute an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises by Tenant before the expiration of the Term. Only a notice from Landlord to Tenant shall constitute acceptance of the surrender of the Premises and accomplish a termination of the Lease. Landlord's consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Tenant. Any waiver by Landlord of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of the Lease.
