Landlord shall have no obligation to provide any security for the Property, the Premises and/or Tenant’s business. Tenant agrees that it shall provide and be solely responsible for its own security, at Tenant’s expense for the operation of Tenant’s business. Landlord will not be providing any alarm system for individual tenant premises. Should Tenant wish to install a central service alarm system, Tenant shall register the same with the City of Ft. Lauderdale. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees, or licensees for losses due to theft or burglary, or for damages done by unauthorized persons in the Premises or the Complex or for any



10



injury, trauma or other harm to any person. Landlord shall not be required to insure against any such losses. Tenant shall be responsible for all repairs and replacements of damage and/or destruction of the Premises necessitated by burglary or attempted burglary, or any other illegal or forcible entry into the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may, at its option, adopt and provide security services for the Complex from time to time. Tenant shall cooperate fully in any efforts of Landlord to maintain security in the Complex and follow all rules and regulations promulgated by Landlord. Any security services that are voluntarily undertaken by Landlord may be changed or discontinued from time to time in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, without liability to Tenant, its employees, agents, customers and invitees. Tenant waives any claims it may have against Land lord arising out of any security services provided by Landlord, or the inadequacy or absence thereof, specifically including Landlord’s negligence with respect to the providing or failure to provide such services.

The failure by Landlord to any extent to furnish, or the interruption or termination of these defined services, in whole or in part, resulting from causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, shall not render Landlord liable in any respect nor be construed as an evict ion of Tenant, nor work an abatement of Rent, nor relieve Tenant from the obligation to fulfill any covenant or agreement in this Lease. Should any of the equipment or machinery used in the provision of such services for any cause cease to function properly, Tenant shall have no claim for offset or abatement of Rent or damages on account of an interruption in service occasioned thereby or resulting therefrom, nor shall any other charges or compensation be claimed by or allowed to Tenant, or any persons claiming under Tenant, under any circumstances, whether for inconvenience, discomfort, interruption of business or arising from any other cause or reason.

During the Lease Term, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive use in common with Land lord, other Complex tenants and/or other parties and their respective guests and invitees, of the driveways of and pedestrian access to the Parking Facility and the Property, and the use of the Parking Spaces subject to the Rules and Regulations promulgated by Landlord from time to time and Section 8(c). Tenant shall not utilize for itself of its licensees or invitees parking spaces in excess of the Parking Spaces. Landlord may elect to provide valet parking for guests of the Complex and may elect to charge for such valet services.

(b)

Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever for any property damage or personal injury which might occur as a result of, or in connection with, the use of the Parking Spaces or the Parking Facility by Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees, and licensees. Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all costs, claims, expenses, or causes of action which Landlord may incur in connection with or arising out of Tenant’s use of the Parking Spaces and the Parking Facility unless caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord.

(c)

Tenant acknowledges that the Property is adjacent to the Broward County Convention Center and that Landlord has no control over the use or operation of the Convention Center. From time to time events held at the Convention Center may temporarily interfere with Landlord’s and Tenant’s access to and parking at the Property. Landlord will advise Tenant of any such events of which Landlord has actual knowledge but Tenant waives any claim against Landlord for such temporary loss of access or parking caused by activities at the Convention Center. In connection with activities at the Convention Center, Tenant acknowledges that from time to time Landlord may make the Parking Facility available to others. To the extent Tenant’s access and use of the Parking Facility at such times is impaired or restricted by Landlord’s acts, Landlord, at



11



Landlord’s cost will provide Tenant with access and use of temporary parking facilities within the Convention Center property.

9.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR OF PREMISES BY LANDLORD.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Landlord shall not be required to make any repairs to the Premises other than repairs to the Building exterior and load-bearing walls and the floors and the roof of the Building, which may be required from time to time, but only after such required repairs have been requested by Tenant in writing and to the extent not caused by the acts of Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors, invitees or subtenants or resulting, directly or indirectly, from the installation of any Tenant Improvements. In no event shall Landlord be responsible for the maintenance or repair of improvements that are not composed of Building grade construction or materials. This Lease is made by Landlord and accepted by Tenant with the agreement that Landlord shall have the right to make additions to the Building and the Property, and make such alterations and repairs to said Building and the Property, as it may deem advisable without any liability to Tenant.

10.

REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE OBLIGATIONS OF TENANT.

(a)

Subject to the provisions in Sections 9, 22 and 23, Tenant agrees, at Tenant’s cost, to maintain the Premises in good order and condition and to make all repairs thereto, and to the fixtures and equipment therein and the appurtenances thereto (including those installed or located outside of the Premises which exclusively serve the Premises). Tenant shall initiate and carry out a program of regular maintenance and repair of the Premises, including, without limitation, painting and decorating of all areas of the interior, so as to impede, to the extent possible, deterioration by ordinary wear and tear, and to keep the Premises in a first class, clean, neat and attractive condition.

Tenant’s responsibilities include any repairs required to be made to the Premises during the Lease Term by any Legal Authority or required to comply with any Legal Requirement applicable during the Lease Term.

(b)

Tenant agrees not to commit or allow to be committed any waste on any portion of the Premises or Complex and, at the termination of this Lease, to deliver the Premises to Landlord in as good condition as at the date of delivery by Landlord of the Premises to Tenant, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and subject to the provisions of Sect ions 11, 22, and 23. Tenant covenants and agrees with Landlord, at Tenant’s own cost, to repair or replace any damage done to the Premises, Building or Complex caused by Tenant or Tenant’s agents, contractors, employees or invitees, and such repairs shall restore the same to as good a condition as it was in prior to such damage, and shall be effected in compliance with all Legal Requirements.

(c)

Nothing in this Lease shall imply any duty on Land lord to do any work that Tenant is required to perform nor constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default in failing to do the same. Landlord shall have the right, in Landlord’s absolute discretion, upon notice to Tenant (except in the case of emergency), to perform any of the repairs, maintenance and/or replacements described in this Lease to be performed by Tenant (including Tenant’s failure to properly perform such obligations in Landlord’s sole opinion). Tenant shall immediately, upon receipt of a bill therefor, reimburse Landlord, as Additional Rent, for all such costs and expenses incurred by Landlord, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate. Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of all repairs,



12



maintenance or replacements to any area of the Complex or to the Premises made necessary by any act, omission or negligence of Tenant, its agents, employees, assignees, concessionaires, contractors, invitees or licensees. Land lord’s performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease shall be without liability to Tenant for any loss or damage that may accrue to Tenant’s merchandise, fixtures or other property or to Tenant’s business by reason thereof. The term “repairs,” as used in this Lease, shall mean all maintenance, repairs, and replacements, of whatever kind.

(d)

Leaks, wet flooring and moisture will contribute to the growth of molds, mildews, fungus or spores. Certain molds, mildew, toxins and/or fungi may be, or if allowed to remain for a sufficient period may become, toxic and potentially pose a health risk. In connection with inducing Landlord to accept this Lease, Tenant shall be deemed to have assumed the risks associated with molds, mildew, toxins and/or fungi and to have released Landlord from any and all liability resulting from same. Tenant understands and agrees that Landlord is not responsible and Landlord disclaims any responsibility for, any illness or allergic reaction which Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees may experience as a result of mold, mildew, fungus or spores. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord, its agents, employees and contractors against any such claims. Tenant understands and agrees that it is Tenant’s responsibility to keep the unit clean, dry, well-ventilated and free of contamination. Tenant shall not install, within the Premises non-breathable wall-coverings or low-permeance paints. Tenant shall operate the air conditioning system in the Premises at all times, whether or not occupied, to maintain a temperature not exceeding 78°f, to minimize humidity in the Premises. If Landlord reasonably believes that the provisions of this section are not being complied with, then the Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation) to enter the Premises (without requiring the consent of Tenant) to turn on the air conditioning in an effort to cause the temperature of the Premises to be maintained as required above (with all utility consumption costs to be paid and assumed by Tenant).

11.

ALTERATIONS BY TENANT.

(a)

Tenant will not paint, decorate or change the architectural treatment of any part of the exterior of the Premises, place any sign on the exterior of the Premises nor make any alterations, additions or changes in the Premises that otherwise require a permit (collectively “Alterations”) without Landlord’s approval. Landlord’s consent may be given on such conditions as Landlord may elect. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any Alterations so long as: (i) the cost thereof does not exceed $5,000 and (ii) such Alterations do not affect the structure or exterior or the portion of the Building, or the electrical, mechanical, HVAC, telecommunications, plumbing, life safety or other Building systems. Any and all Alterations to the Premises shall become the property of Landlord upon termination of this Lease (except for movable equipment, personal property or furniture owned by Tenant). Landlord may, nonetheless, require Tenant to remove any portion of or all of the Tenant Improvements, fixtures, equipment, and other improvements installed on the Premises (“Additional Improvements”), and restore the Premises to its original condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted. In the event that Landlord so elects, and Tenant fails to remove the Additional Improvements, Landlord may remove the Additional Improvements at Tenant’s cost. Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand all costs incurred in removing Additional Improvements and restoration of the Premises as required.

(b)

All Alterations shall be performed in accordance with the standards contained in this Section. No Alterations shall be undertaken without the prior consent of the holder of any Mortgage requiring consent. Any structural or nonstructural Alterations involving an estimated cost of more than $25,000 shall be conducted under the supervision of an architect or engineer selected by Tenant



13



and approved by Landlord (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). No structural Alterations or Alterations involving any electrical, mechanical, plumbing, HVAC or life safety system on the Premises shall be made except in accordance with detailed plans and specifications and cost estimates prepared and approved in writing by such architect or engineer and by Landlord. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within 10 days of Tenant’s receipt of a bill or estimate therefor for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with the review and inspection of Alterations for which consent may be required, including, but not limited to, architects and engineer’s fees and costs. Any Alterations shall, when completed, be of such a character as not to reduce the value of the Premises below its value immediately prior to such Alterations. No Alterations shall be undertaken until Tenant shall have procured and paid for all required permits and authorizations of all municipal departments and governmental subdivisions having jurisdiction and furnished copies to Landlord. Tenant shall comply with all conditions of any permits and with other Legal Requirements and all provisions of this Lease applicable to Tenant Improvements in a prompt and expeditious manner. Any Alterations shall be made promptly and in a first-class and workmanlike manner and in a manner that minimizes inconvenience to and disruption of the other occupants of the Complex and their businesses. The cost of such Alterations shall be paid promptly so that the Premises shall at all times be free of liens for labor and material supplied or claimed to have been supplied to the Premises. Tenant shall maintain during the period of such Alterations workmen’s compensation insurance covering all persons employed in connection with the work being performed and contractor’s liability insurance for the mutual benefit of Tenant and Landlord with limits of not less than $2,000,000 single limit in the event of bodily injury to one or more persons or property damage in any occurrence. All such insurance shall be issued by a company or companies approved by Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. All policies or certificates therefore, together with evidence satisfactory to Landlord of payment of premiums shall be delivered to Landlord, or, when appropriate, to any mortgagee, in which case copies of the policies or certificates of such insurance shall be delivered by Tenant to Landlord. All Alterations shall be performed by a contractor approved by Landlord (which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld). The quality of the work and materials for such Alterations shall be not less than Building Grade. The Alterations, once commenced, prosecuted continuously, in good faith and with due diligence until completed. Tenant shall promptly upon completion of any alterations or improvements furnish Landlord with as-built plans and specifications (in such medium as specified by Landlord) regardless of whether or not consent was required.

(c)

In the event that Landlord reasonably determines that any Alterations by Tenant would disrupt the other tenants in the Complex, Landlord may require that all work performed by or on behalf of Tenant be performed only during non-Normal Business Hours.

(d)

Tenant shall not place a load upon any floor of the Premises exceeding the floor load per square foot area that such floor was designed to carry and which may be allowed by law. Landlord reserves the right to prescribe the weight limitations and position of all heavy equipment and similar items, and to prescribe the reinforcing necessary, if any, which in the opinion of the Landlord may be required under the circumstances, such reinforcing to be at Tenant’s expense.

12.

PEACEFUL ENJOYMENT.

(a)

Tenant shall peacefully enjoy the Premises, subject to the terms of this Lease, including, without limitation, Section 27 and the terms of Landlord’s ground leasehold interest, and Tenant’s timely payment of Rent and performance of all of Tenant’s covenants and agreements contained in this Lease.



14



(b)

Should Landlord determine that an emergency exists that threatens the Complex or any of the tenants or persons therein, or any of their property (e.g. an impending hurricane, a bomb threat or other terrorist threat to the Complex), Landlord shall have the right to close the Complex and require all tenants, including Tenant, to evacuate the Property until such emergency ceases to exist. Such closure shall not affect Base Rent, any other Rent or the Lease Term.

13.

SURRENDER; HOLDING OVER. This Lease shall terminate upon expiration of the Lease Term without the necessity of notice from either Landlord or Tenant. Upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant shall peacefully surrender, quit and vacate the Premises and deliver the same to Landlord in good order, condition and repair, as the same shall be on the date of execution of this Lease or, at Landlord’s option, the date Tenant opens for business in the Premises, or the date any subsequent improvements to the Premises are completed, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire or other insured casualty for which Landlord has received the applicable proceeds excepted . The Premises shall be delivered broom clean, with all trash removed. Tenant shall also deliver to Landlord all keys to the Premises and shall inform Land lord of all combinations and codes on any locks, alarms, safes and vaults in the Premises. In the event of holding over by Tenant after expiration or other termination of this Lease, or in the event Tenant continues to occupy the Premises after the termination of Tenant’s right of possession pursuant to Section 24(b), Tenant shall, throughout the entire holdover period, pay Rent equal to twice the Base Rent and Additional Rent had the Lease Term continued through the period of such holding over by Tenant. No holding over by Tenant after the expiration of the Lease Term shall be construed to extend the term of this Lease. Tenant shall be deemed to be a tenant-at-sufferance during such holdover period. If, as a direct result of Tenant’s holding over in the Premises, Landlord suffers damages or incurs additional obligations to any third Party who has leased part or all of the Premises, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord to the extent of such damages or additional obligations, including without limitation Landlord’s attorneys’ fees.

14.

COMPLIANCE AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. Tenant agrees to comply with all Legal Requirements of every Legal Authority. Tenant shall: (a) neither cause nor permit the Premises to be used to generate, manufacture, refine, transport, treat, store, handle, dispose, transfer, produce, or process Hazardous Materials, except in compliance with all Legal Requirements; or cause nor permit a release or threatened release of Hazardous Materials onto the Premises, the Complex or any other property as a result of any intentional or unintentional act or omission on the part of Tenant; (b) comply with all Legal Requirements related to Hazardous Materials; (c) conduct and complete all investigations, studies, sampling, and testing, and all remedial, removal, and other actions on, from, or affecting the Premises in accordance with such Legal Requirements and to the satisfaction of Landlord; (d) upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, deliver the Premises to Landlord free of all Hazardous Materials; and (e) defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord’s employees and other agents from and against any claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs, or expenses of any kind or nature, known or unknown, contingent or otherwise (including, without limitation, accountants’ and attorneys’ fees (including fees for the services of paralegals and similar persons), consultant fees, investigation and laboratory fees, court costs, and litigation expenses at the trial and all appellate levels), arising out of, or in any way related to (i) the presence, disposal, release, or threatened release, by or caused by Tenant or its agents, of any Hazardous Materials which are on, from, or affecting the soil, water, vegetation, buildings, personal property, persons, animals or otherwise; (ii) any personal injury, including wrongful death, or damage to property, real or personal, arising out of or related to such Hazardous Materials; (iii) any lawsuit brought, threatened, or settled by Legal Authorities or other Parties, or order by Legal Authorities, related to such Hazardous Materials or otherwise; and/or (iv) any



15



violation of Legal Requirements related in any way to such Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall have no obligation under this Section to the extent, if any, such Hazardous Materials were (i) located in or about the Premises, the Building, the Complex or the Property prior to the Rent Commencement Date and (ii) Tenant does not cause, contribute to or participate in, as the case may be, the handling, generation, storage, disposal or release of same. Tenant will participate in periodic fire brigade instruction and drills at the request of Landlord and will supply, maintain, repair and replace for the Premises any fire extinguishers or other fire prevention equipment and safety equipment required by the aforementioned rules, regulations, standards and recommendations.

15.

BUILDING RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant will com ply with the rules and regulations of the Building (the “Rules and Regulations”) as adopted and altered by Landlord from time to time and will cause all of its agents, employees, invitees and visitors to do so.

Tenant agrees to permit Landlord or its agents or representatives to enter into and upon any part of the Premises at all reasonable hours (and in emergencies at all times) to inspect the same, to show the Premises to prospective purchasers, Landlord’s mortgagees or ground lessors (collectively, “Mortgagee”), tenants or insurers, and to clean, maintain or make repairs, alterations or additions to the Premises, the Building or the Complex. Except in the case of an emergency, Landlord shall give Tenant verbal notice prior to any such entry. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises.

17.

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

(a)

Tenant shall not, voluntarily, involuntarily, or by operation of law, assign, sublease, transfer, mortgage, pledge or encumber this Lease or any interest therein except with Landlord’s prior written consent. Landlord’s consent to any assignment or sublease shall not be unreasonably withheld but shall not relieve Tenant of any liability under this Lease. Any attempted assignment, sublease, transfer or encumbrance of this Lease by Tenant in violation of the terms and covenants of this Section shall be void ab initio. Any consent by Landlord shall not be considered to be a consent to any other or further proposed assignment, sublease, transfer or encumbrance. If Tenant or Guarantor, if any, is a corporation, trust, limited liability company, partnership or entity, the conveyance, assignment, transfer or alienation of 51% or more of the corporate stock, membership interests, partnership interests or beneficial interest, as the case may be, or the change in management or controlling interest in Tenant or Guarantor shall be deemed an assignment for purposes of this Section unless such entity is a reporting Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord’s actual attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with Tenant’s assignment, subletting, transfer, or encumbrance of this Lease or any interest therein.

(b)

The Parties agree and acknowledge that, among other circumstances for which Landlord may reasonably withhold its consent to an assignment or sublease, it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent where: (i) the assignment or subletting would increase the operating costs for the Building or the burden on the Building services, or generate additional foot traffic, elevator usage or security concerns in the Building, or create an increased probability of the comfort and/or safety of Landlord and other tenants in the Building being compromised or reduced, (ii) the



16



space will be used for a school or training facility, an entertainment, sports or recreation facility, retail sales to the public (unless Tenant’s permitted use is retail sales), a personnel or employment agency, an office or facility of any governmental or quasi-governmental agency or authority, a place of public assembly (including without limitation a meeting center, theater or public forum), any use by or affiliation with a foreign government (including without limitation an embassy or consulate or similar office), or a facility for the provision of social, welfare or clinical health services or sleeping accommodations (whether temporary, daytime or overnight); (iii) the proposed assignee or subtenant is a current tenant of the Building or a prospective tenant of the Building; (iv) Landlord disapproves of the proposed assignee or subtenant’s reputation or creditworthiness; (v) Landlord determines that the character of the business that would be conducted by the proposed assignee or subtenant at the Premises, or the manner of conducting such business, would be inconsistent with the character of the Building as a first-class office building; (vi) the proposed assignee or subtenant is an entity or related to an entity with whom Landlord or any affiliate of Landlord has had adverse dealings; (vii) the assignment or subletting may conflict with any exclusive uses granted to other tenants of the Property, or with the Terms of any easement, covenant, condition or restriction, or other agreement affecting the Property; (viii) the assignment or subletting would involve a change in use from that expressly permitted under this Lease; or (i x) Landlord determines that the proposed assignee may be unable to perform all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or the proposed subtenant may be unable to perform all of its obligations under the proposed sublease. Landlord’s foregoing rights and options shall continue throughout the entire term of this Lease.

(c)

If Tenant requests Landlord’s consent to an assignment of this Lease or subletting of all or part of the Premises, Landlord may, at its option, recapture the Premises or applicable portion thereof from Tenant and terminate this Lease (in part or in whole, as appropriate) upon 20 days’ notice in which case Landlord shall be permitted to lease the Premises to any third party.

(d)

All cash or other consideration, including any excess Rent beyond the Rent otherwise payable under this Lease, received by Tenant as the proceeds of, or resulting from, any assignment, sale, or sublease of Tenant’s interest in this Lease and/or the Premises, whether consented to by Landlord or not, shall be paid to Landlord as Additional Rent, notwithstanding the fact that such proceeds exceed the Rent otherwise payable under this Lease. Tenant assigns all rights it might have or ever acquire in any such proceeds to Landlord. Any assignee, sublessee or purchaser of Tenant’s interest in this Lease (all such assignees, sublessees or purchasers are referred to as “Successors”), by occupying the Premises and/or assuming Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, shall be deemed to have assumed liability to Landlord for all amounts paid to persons other than Landlord by such Successor in consideration of any such sale, assignment or subletting, in violation of the provisions of this Lease, but Tenant shall remain fully liable to Landlord for all obligations under this Lease.

(e)

The interest of Tenant in this Lease and/or the Premises is not subject to execution, levy and/or sale, and is not otherwise subject to transfer by Tenant in any manner whatsoever, except as expressly provided and permitted in this Lease and/or except as may be effectuated by Landlord under this Lease.

(f)

If Landlord consents to any sublease of the Premises by Tenant to an approved subtenant (“Subtenant”), such sublease transaction shall be evidenced by a written sublease agreement between Tenant and Subtenant (the “Sublease”). The Sublease shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease. Subtenant shall agree in the Sublease not to do, or fail to do, anything that would cause Tenant to violate any of its obligations under this Lease. In addition, the Sublease shall: (i) require Tenant to agree that it shall neither exercise on behalf of, nor assign to,



17



Subtenant any option to extend the term of this Lease; (ii) contain a waiver of subrogation against Landlord and shall require Subtenant’s insurance policies to acknowledge such a waiver of subrogation; (iii) prohibit a sub-sublease of the Premises or the assignment of the Sublease by Subtenant, without first obtaining Landlord’s consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion; (iv) require Subtenant, acting through Tenant, to obtain Land lord’s prior written approval to any alterations to the Premises to the extent Tenant is required by this Lease to obtain such consent; (v) require Subtenant to send Landlord copies of any and all notices concerning the Premises that Subtenant is obligated to provide to Tenant and Tenant to send Land lord copies of any and all notices concerning the Premises that Tenant is obligated to provide to Subtenant; (vi) not create or shall be construed or deemed to create privity of contract or privity of estate between Landlord and Subtenant; (vii) provide that Subtenant shall have no right (and shall waive any rights it may have) to hold Landlord responsible for any liability in connection with the Premises, including, without limitation, any liability arising from the noncompliance with any federal, state, or local laws applicable to the Premises; (viii) provide that nothing in the Sublease shall amend or shall be construed or deemed to amend this Lease and that Tenant and Subtenant shall not amend the Sublease, and (ix) the Sublease shall contain such other Terms as Landlord may require.

18.

CONSTRUCTION LIENS.  The interest of Landlord in any part or all of the Property, and the income therefrom, shall not be subject to liens for improvements made, or caused to be made, by Tenant. Tenant will not permit any construction liens, mechanic’s liens or other liens to be placed upon the Premises or the Property. Nothing in this Lease shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any person for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials to the Premises or any part thereof, nor as giving Tenant any right, power, or authority to contract for or permit the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to any construction, mechanic’s or other liens against the Premises or the Property. If any such lien is recorded against or attached to the Premises or the Property, Tenant shall bond against or discharge same within 10 days after Tenant’s receipt of actual notice that the same has been so recorded or attached. Should any such lien not be discharged or bonded off within such 10 day period, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, cause the same to be discharged (including the advancement of monies for such purpose). Any monies advanced or costs incurred by Landlord for any of the aforesaid purposes together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on demand as Additional Rent. Should a Notice of Commencement be filed in the public records for work by or on behalf of Tenant, the Legal Description shall specifically be limited to Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises. In such event, Tenant shall be responsible for having a corresponding Notice of Termination timely recorded in the county which the Property is located upon the completion of such work.

Payments for losses under Landlord’s insurance shall be made solely to Landlord or Mortgagee as their interests shall appear. In the event of self-insurance, the premium cost equivalency of such policy or policies shall be a part of the Operating Expenses. Coverage may be raised or lowered in such amounts as may from time to time be prudent to Landlord within its sole discretion. ·

The limit of any insurance maintained by Tenant shall not limit the liability of Tenant. Tenant shall also maintain at its expense such other insurance as is customarily carried by businesses similar to Tenant’s business, in such amounts and conditions as Landlord may reasonably require, All insurance proceeds payable with respect to the Premises and Tenant Improvements shall belong to and shall be payable to Landlord. In the event of any damage or destruction to the Premises and the Lease is not terminated in accordance with this Lease, and Tenant completes its obligation to repair, redecorate and refixture the Premises in accordance with Section 22, Tenant shall be entitled to such proceeds, but such insurance proceeds shall be held in trust by or on behalf of Tenant for such purposes in a manner reasonably acceptable to Landlord. If Tenant shall fail to complete the repairs, redecoration and refixturing which it is obligated to perform under Section 22, or if this Lease is terminated prior to completion of such work, Tenant shall have no right or claim to such proceeds, and all such proceeds shall be turned over to Landlord and disposed of as Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, may determine. Upon termination of this Lease by Tenant pursuant to Section 22, Tenant shall also pay to Landlord any deductible of any Tenant insurance policy with respect to the Premises and if the proceeds are insufficient to complete any restoration work, Tenant shall pay Landlord any deficiency.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 21, Landlord shall be liable for any such loss, damage, death or injury which is proximately caused by the Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

21.

WAIVER OF SUBROGATION RIGHTS.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 22(b), Landlord and Tenant each waives on behalf of itself and its insurers (none of which shall ever be assigned any such claim or be entitled thereto due to subrogation or otherwise) any and all rights of recovery, claim, action, or cause of action against the other, its agents, officers, or employees, for any loss or damage that may occur to the Premises or the Property, or any improvements thereto, or any personal property of such Party therein, by reason of fire, the elements, or any other causes which are, or could or should be insured against under the Terms of the standard fire and extended coverage insurance policies referred to in Section 18, regardless of whether such insurance is actually maintained and regardless of the cause or origin of the damage involved, including negligence of the other Party, its agents, officers, or employees.

22.

CASUALTY DAMAGE.

(a)

If the Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give prompt written notice thereof to Landlord. If: (i) the Building shall be so damaged that substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Building shall, in Landlord’s sole opinion, be required (whether or not the Premises shall have been damaged by such casualty); (ii) any Mortgagee’s interest in the Property requires that the insurance proceeds payable as a result of a casualty be applied to the payment of the mortgage debt; (iii) there is any material uninsured loss to the Property, Landlord may, at its option (y) terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within 90 days after the date of such casualty; and (z) not repair, reconstruct, or restore the Premises or the Building, whether or not the Premises have suffered from the casualty.

If the Landlord estimates that it can repair the Premises, excluding Tenant Improvements therein, (“Landlord Restoration Work”) within 360 days from receipt of all insurance proceeds, the Lease will continue unless otherwise Terminated by Landlord as provided above. Landlord’s estimate of the length of time necessary to complete repairs shall be given to Tenant the later of: (i) 30 days after a written request from Tenant is received by Landlord; and (ii) 60 days after the occurrence of a casualty. If Landlord is prevented by force majeure (“Delays”), from completing Landlord’s Restoration Work within said applicable period, and if Landlord provides Tenant with written notice of such cause for the Delays within 15 days of the occurrence thereof, said notice to contain the reason for the Delays and a good faith estimate of the period of the delay caused thereby,



21



then Landlord shall have an additional period beyond said applicable period, equal to the Delays in which to restore the damaged areas of the Building. In such event, Tenant may not elect to terminate this Lease until said additional period required for completion has expired with the Building not having been substantially restored. Landlord’s obligation to restore shall be limited to the extent of the insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord as a result of the casualty and Landlord’s restoration obligations shall be limited to the Building shell and the Shell Improvements located in the Premises.

When the Landlord’s repairs have been substantially completed, Tenant shall promptly complete the restoration of all improvements to the Premises in excess of Landlord’s Restoration Work (including, without limitation, all Tenant Improvements unless Landlord elects, at Tenant’s expense, to restore any such Tenant Improvements) necessary to permit Tenant’s reoccupancy of the Premises and to restore the Premises to the condition immediately before such casualty or damage, in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Landlord and Tenant. Landlord shall have the right to approve any contractor Tenant selects to perform such work. Tenant shall also be responsible for the restoration of Tenant’s furniture, equipment, and fixtures. All cost and expense of reconstructing the Premises to a level in excess of that at the execution of this Lease shall be borne by Tenant.

(b)

Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to the business of Tenant resulting in any way from such casualty damage or the repair thereof. Subject to the provisions of the next sentence, Landlord shall allow Tenant a fair diminution of Rent until Landlord’s Restoration Work is substantially completed and a reasonable period of time has elapsed for Tenant to restore the Tenant Improvements, not to exceed 60 days from the date Land lord substantially completes the Shell Improvements. If the Premises or any other portion of the Property be damaged by fire or other casualty resulting from the fault or negligence of Tenant or any of Tenant’s agents, contractors, employees, or invitees, the Rent shall not be diminished during the repair of such damage, and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for the cost of the repair and restoration of the Premises, the Building, the Complex and/or the Property to the extent such cost and expense is not covered by insurance proceeds.

23.

CONDEMNATION. If the whole or substantially the who le of the Complex should be taken for any public or quasi-public use, by right of eminent domain or otherwise or should be sold in lieu of condemnation, then this Lease shall Terminate as of the date when physical possession of the Building or the Property is taken by the condemning authority. If less than the whole or substantially the whole of the Complex is so taken or sold, Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease by giving notice thereof to Tenant, whether or not the Premises are affected. In the event of such notice, this Lease shall terminate as of the date when physical possession of such potion of the Complex is taken by the condemning authority. If this Lease is not so terminated upon any such taking or sale, and if a port ion of the Premises is taken, the Base Rent shall be diminished by an equitable amount. Landlord shall, to the extent Land lord deems feasible, restore the Building and, if affected, the Premises but such work shall not exceed the scope of the work of constructing Landlord’s Restoration Work. Landlord shall not in any event be required to expend amounts for such work in excess of the amount received by Landlord as compensation for such taking. All amounts awarded upon a taking of any part or all of the Property shall belong to Landlord, and Tenant shall not be entitled to and expressly waives all claims to any such compensation, including claims Tenant may make by reason of its leasehold interest in or business at the Premises.

24.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT; REMEDIES.



22



(a)

The following events shall be deemed to be “Events of Default” by Tenant under this Lease: (i) Tenant shall fail to pay any Rent when due under this Lease; (ii) Tenant shall fail to comply with any provision of this Lease not requiring the payment of money (all of which terms, provisions, and covenants shall be deemed material) or any other agreement between Landlord and Tenant and such failure shall continue for a period of 15 days after written notice of such default is delivered to Tenant, or if such failure could not reasonably be cured within such period, Tenant shall have failed to commence such cure within such period or thereafter failed to prosecute with diligence such cure to completion, but in no event later than 60 days after Landlord’s initial notice to Tenant of such failure; (iii) Tenant’s leasehold interest shall be taken by execution or other process of law in any action against Tenant; (iv) Tenant notifies Landlord, at any time prior to the Rent Commencement Date, that Tenant does not intend to take occupancy of the Premises upon the Rent Commencement Date, or Tenant shall fail to promptly move into and take possession of the Premises when the Premises are ready for occupancy or shall cease to do business in or abandon any substantial portion of the Premises; (v) Tenant shall become insolvent or unable to pay its debts as they become due, or Tenant notifies Landlord that it anticipates either condition; (vi) Tenant takes any action to, or notifies Landlord that Tenant intends to file a petition under the Bankruptcy Code, or under any similar law or statute of the United States or any State thereof, or a petition shall be filed against Tenant under any such statute, or Tenant notifies Landlord that it expects such a petition to be filed; (vii) a receiver or trustee shall be appointed for Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises or for all or a substantial part of the assets of Tenant or any guarantor; (viii) Tenant shall make any assignment of this Lease or sublease of all or any portion of the Premises without Landlord’s prior consent in violation of the terms of this Lease; (ix) Tenant shall remove or permit the removal of any furniture, fixtures or equipment from the Premises other than in the ordinary course of its business; (x) if Tenant fails more than twice within any 12 month period to observe or perform any covenant, condition, or agreement of this Lease (including without limitation the payment of Rent), regardless of whether such defaults shall have been cured by Tenant, the third default shall at the election of Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, be deemed a noncurable Event of Default; (xi) Tenant or any agent of Tenant falsifies any report or misrepresents other information required to be furnished to Landlord pursuant to this Lease; (xii) the death of Tenant or any Guarantor; or the commencement of steps or proceedings toward the dissolution, winding up, or other termination of the existence of the Tenant or of any Guarantor, or toward the liquidation of either of their respective assets; or (xiii) the occurrence of any other event described as a default elsewhere in the Lease or any amendment thereto, regardless of whether such event is defined as one of the Events of Default in this Section.

(b)

Upon the occurrence of any of the Events of Default enumerated above, or any other event of default by Tenant under this Lease Landlord shall have the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any notice or demand: (i) terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord; (ii) terminate Tenant’s right to occupy the Premises and re-enter and take possession of the Premises (without terminating this Lease); (iii) declare all amounts and Rents due under this Lease for the remainder of the Lease Term (or any extension or renewal thereof) to be immediately due and payable, and thereupon all rents and other charges due to the end of the Lease Term (or any extension or renewal term, if applicable) shall be accelerated, but such accelerated amount shall be discounted to the then present value at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of the district within which the Premises is located. Upon any termination of the Lease or Termination of possession to the Premises, Land lord may elect to enter and repossess the Premises and relet all or part of the Premises for Tenant’s account, for a term or terms which may, at Landlord’s option, be less than or



23



greater than the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Lease Term. Tenant shall be liable in damages for all expenses incurred in any such reletting including, without limitation, any Tenant improvement allowance, expenditures in connection with renovation, maintenance, repairs and/or alterations for the new tenant, broker’s commissions, legal fees, etc. and for any difference between the amount of rent received from such reletting and the Rent due and payable under the Terms of this Lease. If Landlord enters the Premises Landlord may do whatever Tenant is obligated to do under the terms of this Lease, and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord on demand for any expense which Landlord may incur in effecting compliance with Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Tenant further agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for any damages resulting to the Tenant from such action. In addition, Landlord may exercise all other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, including, without limitation, injunctive relief.

Should Landlord elect to re-enter or take possession of the Premises after Tenant’s default, Tenant waives notice of such re-entry or repossession. Landlord may make such alterations and/or decorations in the Premises as Landlord, in Land lord’s sole discretion, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting, securing or maintaining the Premises. Landlord, in addition to all other rights and remedies it may have, shall have the right to keep in place and use all of the inventory, furniture, fixtures, equipment and other personal property in the Premises and/or remove any or all of Tenant’s property from the Premises which may then be sold, disposed of, or stored at the cost of and for the account of Tenant. Landlord shall not be responsible for the care or safekeeping of any such property and Tenant waives any claim against Landlord relating thereto. No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on Landlord’s part to terminate this Lease unless written notice of such intention is given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination of this Lease, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease. In any event, Landlord shall not be liable for, nor shall Tenant’s obligations be diminished by reason of, any failure by Landlord to relet the Premises or any failure by Landlord to collect any sums due upon such reletting, and the refusal, failure or inability of Landlord to relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof shall not release or affect Tenant’s liability for damages, Tenant specifically waiving any duty on the part of Landlord to mitigate damages otherwise imposed by law. Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying said Premises or any part thereof. In addition, the provisions of Section 13 shall apply with respect to the period from and after the giving of notice of such Termination to Tenant. All of Landlord’s remedies shall be cumulative and not exclusive. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce any remedies following an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the maintenance of any action or proceeding to recover possession of the Premises or any Rent or any other monies that may be due or become due from Tenant to Landlord shall not preclude Landlord from thereafter instituting and maintaining subsequent act ions or proceedings for the recovery of possession of the Premises or of any other Rent or monies that may be due or become due from Tenant. Any entry or re-entry into the Premises by Landlord shall not be deemed to absolve or discharge Tenant from liability under this Lease.

(c)

In addition to any other rights and remedies available to Landlord under this Lease and/or at law, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand the unamortized portion of: (i) any Tenant improvement allowance; (ii) brokerage fees paid by Landlord in connection with this Lease; (iii) costs expended by Landlord in connection with any Tenant Improvements made by Landlord;



24



and (iv) all other costs, expenses and other sums incurred by Landlord in connection with preparing and/or improving the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy under this Lease.

(d)

Tenant expressly waives any and all rights of redemption and rights to relief from forfeiture granted by or under any present or future laws, if Tenant shall be evicted or dispossessed from the Premises for any cause, or Landlord reenters the Premises following the occurrence of any Event of Default, or this Lease is Terminated before the expiration date thereof originally fixed in this Lease. For the enforcement of Landlord’s remedies, Landlord may have recourse to any applicable legal or equitable process for the recovery of possession of the Premises and the right to seek an injunction or a declaratory judgment as if no other remedies were provided for such breach. Except as otherwise specifically required by this Lease, Tenant waives any and all statutory and legal notice requirements.

25.

SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGE; ATTORNMENT.


(a)

Tenant accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to any mortgage, deed of trust, ground lease, or other lien presently existing or subsequently arising upon the Property and to any renewals, refinancing and extensions thereof or of any ground leases (collectively, a “Mortgage”). Tenant agrees that any Mortgagee shall have the right at any time to subordinate such Mortgage to this Lease on such terms and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may deem appropriate in its discretion. The terms of this Lease are subject to approval by Mortgagee, and such approval is a condition precedent to Landlord’s obligations under this Lease. Landlord is irrevocably vested with full power and authority to subordinate this Lease to any Mortgage now existing or subsequently placed upon the Property. Tenant agrees upon demand to execute such further instruments (collectively, “Subordination Instrument”) subordinating this Lease or attorning to the holder of any such Mortgage as Landlord may request. Tenant’s failure to execute the Subordination Instrument within 10 days following any request shall be deemed an Event of Default. If Tenant fails to execute the Subordination Instrument promptly upon request, Tenant irrevocably constitutes Landlord as its attorney-in-fact to execute the Subordination Instrument in Tenant’s name, place, and stead, it being agreed that such power is one coupled with an interest. Tenant shall be responsible for paying any legal fees or charges required by Mortgagee to execute and deliver the Subordination Instrument and any legal fees and charges incurred by Landlord in connection with the Subordination Instrument.

(b)

If a Mortgagee, or any other person claiming under a Mortgage, succeeds to Landlord’s interest in this Lease whether by purchase, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, power of sale, termination of lease or otherwise, Tenant will recognize and attorn to said Mortgagee or other person as its Landlord under this Lease. Upon any completion of a Mortgage foreclosure or deed in lieu (as applicable), any new owner shall not: (i) be liable for any act or omission of Landlord or with respect to events occurring prior to acquisition of ownership to the extent applicable to the period prior to the date such new owner succeeds to Landlord’s interest under this Lease; (ii) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against Landlord to the extent applicable to the period prior to the date such new owner succeeds to Landlord’s interest under this Lease; (iii) be bound by prepayment of more than one month’s Rent; (iv) liable for the return of any Security Deposit unless received by Landlord; or (v) bound by any amendment or modifications of this Lease made without their prior written consent.

(c)

Tenant agrees to give prompt written notice to Mortgagee of any default by Landlord that would entitle Tenant to cancel this Lease, and agrees that notwithstanding any provision of this Lease, no notice of cancellation thereof given on behalf of Tenant shall be effective unless



25



Mortgagee has received said notice and has failed within 30 days of the date of receipt thereof to cure Landlord’s default, or if the default cannot be cured within 30 days, has failed to commence and to diligently pursue the cure of Land lord’s default which gave rise to such right of cancellation. Tenant further agrees to give such notices to any successor of Mortgagee, provided that such successor shall have given written notice to Tenant of its acquisition of Mortgagee’s interest in the Mortgage and designated the address to which such notices are to be sent.

(d)

Tenant acknowledges that Landlord may execute and deliver to Mortgagee an Assignment of Leases and Rents conveying the rentals under this Lease as additional security for the loan secured by the Mortgage, and Tenant consents to such Assignment.

(e)

Tenant agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, do any of the following, and any such purported action without such consent shall be void as against Mortgagee:

(i)

modify this Lease or any extensions or renewals thereof in such a way as to reduce the Rent, accelerate Rent payments, shorten the Lease Term, or change any renewal option;

(ii)

terminate this Lease except as provided by its terms; or

(iii)

tender or accept a surrender of this Lease or make prepayment in excess of one month of Base Rent.

26.

ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Tenant agrees that it will from time to time within 5 days of each request by Landlord, execute and deliver to such persons as Land lord shall request, a statement (each, a “Tenant Estoppel Certificate”) in recordable form certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as so modified), stating the dates to which Rent and other charges payable under this Lease have been paid, stating that Landlord is not in default (or if Tenant alleges a default, stating the nature of such alleged default), and further stating such other matters as Landlord shall reasonably require. Landlord shall provide the form of each such statement. Any Tenant Estoppel Certificate may be relied upon by Landlord or any prospective purchaser, Mortgagee, or prospective Mortgagee of the Complex or any portion thereof. If Landlord submits an estoppel certificate to Tenant and Tenant fails to return same duly executed and acknowledged, or fails to object to its contents, within said 5 day period, the matters set forth therein shall conclusively be deemed to be correct.

27.

ATTORNEYS’ FEES.  If any action or proceeding is commenced in which Landlord intervenes or is made a party by reason of being the Landlord under this Lease, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s costs and expenses incurred as a result thereof, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees. In the event of any litigation between the Parties under this Lease, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to receive from the other Party full reimbursement of such prevailing Party’s reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and costs incurred therewith, whether such fees or costs are incurred before, during, or after any trial or administrative proceeding or on appeal or in bankruptcy.

28.

NO IMPLIED WAIVER.  The failure of Landlord to insist at any time upon the strict performance of any covenant or agreement in this Lease or to exercise any option, right, power, or remedy contained in this Lease shall not be construed as a waiver or a relinquishment thereof for the future. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the monthly



26



installment of Rent due under this Lease shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest Rent due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.

29.

LANDLORD’S LIABILITY. The term “Landlord,” as used in this Lease, shall mean only the owner or owners, at the time in question, of the fee title to the Building. Landlord shall have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or in part, all its rights and obligations under this Lease and in the Property. In the event of any transfer, Landlord as named in this Lease (and in the case of any subsequent transfers, then the grantor) shall be relieved from and after the date of such transfer of all liability in respect of Landlord’s obligations thereafter to be performed. Any funds in the hands of Landlord or the then grantor at the time of such transfer, in which Tenant has a n interest, shall be delivered to the grantee. The obligations contained in this Lease to be performed by Landlord shall, subject to the above, be binding on Landlord’s successors and assigns, only during their respective periods of ownership. The obligations of Landlord under this Lease do not constitute personal obligations of Landlord or the individual partners, shareholders, members, managers, directors, officers, and property managers. Tenant shall look solely to Landlord’s then existing interest in the Property, and to no other assets of Landlord, for satisfaction of any liability in respect of this Lease, and will not seek recourse against the individual partners, shareholders, members, managers, directors, officers, property managers, or any of their personal assets for such satisfaction. No other properties or assets of Landlord shall be subject to levy, execution, or other enforcement procedures for the satisfaction of any judgment (or other judicial process) or for the satisfaction of any other remedy of Tenant arising out of or in connection with this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, or Tenant’s use of the Premises. Landlord shall under no circumstances be liable for injury to Tenant’s business or for any loss of income, incidental or consequential damages, or profit therefrom or for punitive damages, all of which are expressly waived by Tenant.

30.

SECURITY DEPOSIT. If Section l(a)(vii) sets forth an amount for the Security Deposit, then the Security Deposit shall be due upon execution of this Lease, or at such other date as provided for in Section 1 (a)(x) and shall be held by Landlord without liability for interest and as security for the performance by Tenant of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. The Security Deposit shall not be considered an advance payment of Rent or a measure of Tenant’s liability for damages in case of default by Tenant. Landlord may commingle the Security Deposit with Landlord’s other funds. Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy, use the Security Deposit to the extent necessary to make good any arrearages of Rent or to satisfy any other covenant or obligation of Tenant. Following any such application of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand the amount so applied in order to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. If Tenant is not in default at the termination of this Lease, the balance of the Security Deposit remaining after any such application shall be returned by Landlord to Tenant following settlement of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes and Operating Expenses for the final calendar year of the Lease Term. If Landlord transfers its interest in the Premises during the Lease Term, Landlord may assign the Security Deposit to the transferee and thereafter shall have no further liability for the return of such Security Deposit.

31.

NOTICE. Unless otherwise provided in this Lease, all notices and requests required or permitted under this Lease to Landlord or Tenant shall be in writing and shall be addressed to the addresses indicated in this Lease or to any other address that Landlord or Tenant may designate in a notice to the other Party given at least 15 days in advance. All notices shall be deemed to be properly



27



served if delivered to the appropriate address by registered or certified mail (with postage prepaid and return receipt requested), courier, express delivery service (such as FEDEX, D.H.L. or similar express services), or by facsimile transmission (provided that there is independent verification of delivery). Anything contained in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, no notice of default, termination or election of any right under this Lease by Tenant (collectively “Material Notices”) shall be deemed delivered to, or received by, the receiving Party if sent by the sending Party only by facsimile. Such Material Notices, if sent by facsimile, must also be sent by any other notice method described in this Section and shall only be deemed received by Landlord pursuant to the provisions applicable to such applicable non-facsimile notice method so utilized. The date of service of a notice served shall be the date of actual receipt or refusal of delivery. If any Mortgagee shall notify Tenant that it is the holder of a Mortgage affecting the Premises, no notice of default thereafter sent by Tenant to Landlord shall be effective unless and until a copy of the same shall also be sent to such Mortgagee in the manner prescribed in this Section and to such address as such Mortgagee shall designate. Until further notice: (i) the address for Tenant shall be the Name and Address of Tenant for Notices as set forth in Section 1(a); and (ii) the address for Landlord shall be as follows:

Once Tenant has taken occupancy of the Premises, any notice from Landlord to Tenant shall be effective if delivered to the Premises address in the manner provided in this Section. Although the Parties may communicate from time to time by email, email correspondence shall not be deemed to be effective notice under this Lease. Notices may be given on behalf of any Party by such Party’s legal counsel. In the event of any litigation under this Lease, the foregoing notice provisions shall in no way prohibit notices from being given as provided in the rules of civil procedure of the State of Florida, as the same may be amended from time to time and any notice so given in any such litigation shall constitute notice herein.

32.

SEVERABILITY. If any term or provision of this Lease, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each Term and provision of this Lease shall be otherwise valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

33.

RECORDATION. Tenant agrees not to record this Lease or any memorandum of this Lease. At Landlord’s request, Tenant agrees to promptly execute a memorandum of this Lease in recordable form, and Landlord may, at its option, record such memorandum i n the Public Records of the County in which the Property is located.

34.

GOVERNING LAW; IMMUNITY; SERVICE OF PROCESS; JURISDICTION. This Lease and the rights and obligations of the Parties shall be interpreted, construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida. Landlord and Tenant agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of and that the venue for any proceeding under or relating to this Lease shall be in any court serving the County where the Property is located. If Tenant is a governmental entity (domestic or foreign) or otherwise entitled to diplomatic or sovereign immunity, in connection with any claim, suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or relating to this Lease or Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, Tenant (a) waives the defense of diplomatic or sovereign immunity to which it may be entitled, whether directly or indirectly, (b) waives service of process under any federal statute, rule or other law and consents to, and acknowledges Tenant is subject to, service of process in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, and (c) waives any right to remove any such claim, suit, action or proceeding to federal court or any other court.

35.

FORCE MAJEURE. Whenever a period of time is herein prescribed for the taking of any action by either Party, neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be liable or responsible for, and there shall be excluded from the computation of such period of time, any delays due to strikes, riots, acts of God, shortages of labor or materials, war, governmental laws, regulations or restrictions, or any other cause whatsoever beyond the control of Landlord or Tenant. No permitted delay by Tenant may, in any event, exceed 30 days nor excuse Tenant from the prompt payment of any Rent or delay the date on which Tenant’s obligation to commence to pay Rent shall begin.

36.

TIME OF PERFORMANCE.  Except as expressly otherwise provided, with respect to all required acts of Tenant, time is of the essence of this Lease.

37.

BROKERS. Landlord and Tenant each represent and warrant one to the other that except as may be set forth in this Lease, neither of them has contracted with any broker in connection with the negotiations of the terms of this Lease or the execution thereof.

38.

EFFECT OF DELIVERY OF THIS LEASE. Landlord has delivered a copy of this Lease to Tenant for Tenant’s review only, and the deli very does not constitute an offer to Tenant or option to lease.

The costs of the physical relocation of Tenant (including its reasonable moving expenses and providing for interior finishes com parable to those existing within Tenant ‘s premises at the time of relocation) shall be borne by Landlord. Such a relocation shall not terminate or otherwise affect or modify this Lease except that from and after the date of such relocation, the “Premises” shall refer to the relocation space into which Tenant has been moved, rather than the original Premises.

40.

CAPTIONS; CONSTRUCTION. The Section captions used are for convenience and reference only and in no way add to or detract from the interpretation of the provisions of this Lease. Landlord, Tenant and their separate advisors believe and agree that this Lease is the product of their joint efforts, that it expresses their agreement, and that this Lease shall be construed without regard to any presumption or other rule permitting construction against the Patty causing this Lease to be drafted and shall not be construed more strictly in favor of or against either of the Parties merely because of their efforts in its preparation, but this Lease shall be interpreted in accordance with the general tenor of the language in an effort to reach the intended result. All of the Exhibits are incorporated into and made a part of this Lease for all purposes.

If more than one Party has executed this Lease as “Tenant,” the liability of each Party is joint and several. The use of the neuter singular pronoun to refer to Landlord or Tenant shall be deemed a proper reference even though Landlord or Tenant may be an individual, a partnership, a limited liability company, a firm, a corporation, or a group of 2 or more individuals or corporations.

All prior agreements, understandings, representations and/or promises made or entered into by the Patties are superseded by and replaced with this Lease, so that this Lease is the sole agreement between the Parties.

In the event Landlord undertakes such a redevelopment, Tenant acknowledges that the



32



redevelopment process may disrupt the normal business activities of the Tenant ‘s Business and the Project. Tenant agrees to accept the Leased Premises subject to any inconvenience, disturbance or impact any such redevelopment may have upon the Leased Premises and Tenant’s operations.

As used herein, the term “Approvals” shall mean all permits, approvals, variances, licenses and other determinations required under the provisions of applicable federal, state, county and local municipal laws, ordinances, regulations and administrative rulings to redevelop the Project, including any tax increment financing approvals (TIF), if applicable.

If Tenant is relocated as a result of the Redevelopment, Landlord shall undertake to pay for the relocation expenses and the rent shall be adjusted as noted in the “Relocation” paragraph above

(c)

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall have the right to terminate the Lease at any time, upon not less than one (1) year prior written notice to Tenant in the event Landlord needs the Leased Premises to accommodate a redevelopment of the Project as provided above. In the event the Lease is terminated pursuant to this Article, the Lease Term shall expire on the termination date provided in the notice as if that were the date of expiration originally provided in the Lease. Tenant will remain liable to Landlord for all payment obligations (including, without limitation, rent, additional rent, and tax, common area maintenance and insurance reimbursement, if any) and all other obligations under the Lease (including Tenant’s obligation to insure the Leased Premises) accrued through (and including) the Lease termination date.

(d)

If Landlord proceeds with the redevelopment and Tenant’s Lease is not terminated as described above, during the course of the redevelopment Tenant shall, at its expense, erect a temporary sign or banner as directed by Landlord until the completion of the renovation. On or before the completion of the renovation, Landlord will provide Tenant with revised Project sign criteria and Tenant shall be required, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to install a sign that complies with the sign criteria. Tenant’s sign design drawings and specifications shall be submitted to Landlord for Landlord’s written approval prior to the fabrication and erection of Tenant’s sign. The sign shall be governed by all applicable provisions of this Lease, including, but not limited to, Tenant’s duty to repair and insure the sign. The sign shall be subject to all governmental authorities’ codes and restrictions.

(individually and collectively the “Guarantor”), to and in favor of Portside Yachting Center LLC, a Florida Limited Corp, having an office at 1850 S E 17th Street, Suite C, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33316 (“Landlord”).

RECITALS


A. Landlord and Diversified Health & Fitness, Inc. (“Tenant”) are, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Guaranty, entering into a lease agreement (the “Lease”) for Suite 203 (“Premises”) in the building located at 1850 SE 17th Street Fort Lauderdale, Florida, as more particularly described in the Lease, located in Broward County (“County”).

B. Guarantor represents and warrants to Landlord that Guarantor is benefited, directly or indirectly, by Tenant’s entering into the Lease.

C. As a specific and material inducement to Landlord to enter into the Lease with Tenant, Guarantor has agreed to execute and deliver this Guaranty, and by this Guaranty to guarantee the payment of all sums and charges payable by Tenant under the Lease and the performance and observance of all of Tenant’s obligations set forth in the Lease.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the execution and delivery of the Lease by Landlord and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are conclusively acknowledged, Guarantor covenants and agrees as follows to the following provisions:

1.

The recitals to this Guaranty are true and incorporated in this Guaranty.

2.

Guarantor guarantees, absolutely and unconditionally, to Landlord, and to any mortgagee holding a mortgage upon the interest of Landlord in the Premises and to the underlying lessor under the ground lease to Landlord, (a) the full and prompt payment of all sums and charges payable by Tenant under the Lease and any and all amendments, modifications or other instruments relating thereto, whether now or hereafter existing (b) the full and prompt performance and observance of all terms, covenants, conditions and agreements to be performed and observed by Tenant under the Lease and any and all amendments, modifications and other instruments relating thereto, whether now or hereafter existing, and (c) the full and prompt payment of all damages (actual, consequential, and punitive), costs and expenses which shall at any time be recoverable by Landlord from Tenant by virtue of the Lease and any amendments, modifications and other instruments relating thereto (individually and collectively, “Liabilities of Tenant”). Guarantor covenants and agrees to and with Landlord that if Tenant, or its successors and assigns, shall default at any time in the payment of any sum or charge payable by Tenant under the Lease or in the performance and observance of any of the terms, covenants, provisions or conditions contained in the Lease, Guarantor shall forthwith pay to Landlord all sums and charges due under the Lease, shall immediately faithfully perform and fulfill all of such terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of the Lease and shall immediately pay to Landlord all damages that may arise in consequence of any such default by Tenant, including, without limitation, all attorneys’ (including paralegals’ and similar



D-1





support personnel’s) and accountants’ fees, costs and disbursements (including those related to any appellate matters) incurred by Landlord or caused by any such default and/or the enforcement of this Guaranty and/or the collection.

3.

All moneys available to Landlord for application in payment or reduction of the Liabilities of Tenant may be applied by Landlord, in such manner and in such amounts and at such time or times as Landlord may see fit, to the payment or reduction of such of the Liabilities of Tenant as Landlord may elect.

4.

This Guaranty shall be in effect with respect to all matters arising during or relating to the entire period the Lease is in effect, including all renewals and extensions, beginning with the commencement of the Lease, and the liability of the Guarantor shall not be affected, waived, released, discharged, modified or diminished by reason (a) of any assignment of the Lease by Tenant or any subletting of the Premises thereunder, (b) of any dealings or transactions occurring between Landlord and Tenant, (c) of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, assignment for the benefit of creditors, receivership or trusteeship affecting Tenant or the rejection or disaffirmance of the Lease in any proceedings or (d) that any security for the Liabilities of Tenant is exchanged, surrendered or released or the Lease or any other obligation of Tenant is changed, altered, renewed, extended, continued, surrendered, compromised, waived or released in whole or in part, or that any default with respect thereto is waived, whether or not notice thereof is given to Guarantor. Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Liabilities of Tenant may, from time to time, be exchanged, surrendered, changed, altered, continued, renewed, extended, modified, compromised, released or waived by Landlord and that Landlord may fail to set off and may release, in whole or in part, any credit on its books in favor of Tenant, and may extend further credit in any manner whatsoever to Tenant, and generally deal with Tenant or any such security as Landlord may see fit, all without notice to or assent by Guarantor, as if Landlord had obtained the prior written consent of Guarantor; and Guarantor shall remain bound under this Guaranty notwithstanding any such exchange, surrender, release, change, alteration, renewal, extension, modification, continuance, compromise, waiver, inaction, extension of further credit or other dealing. If Guarantor is a governmental entity (domestic or foreign) or otherwise entitled to diplomatic or sovereign immunity, in connection with any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or relating to the Lease or this Guaranty, Guarantor (a) waives the defense of diplomatic or sovereign immunity to which it may be entitled, whether directly or indirectly, (b) waives service of process under any federal statute, rule or other law and consents to, and acknowledges Tenant is subject to, service of process in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, and (c) waives any right to remove any such suit, action or proceeding to federal court or any other court.

5.

If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, Guarantor shall be liable for all damages, actual, consequential or punitive, arising from, growing out of or related to any such failure to surrender the Premises.

6.

Guarantor expressly waives (a) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, (b) presentment and demand for payment of any of the Liabilities of Tenant; (c) protest and notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, nonobservance or default to Guarantor or to any other Party with respect to any of the Liabilities of Tenant; (d) all other notices to which Guarantor might otherwise be entitled; and (e) any demand for payment under this Guaranty. Guarantor expressly agrees that the validity of this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantor shall not be terminated, affected, diminished or impaired by reason of the assertion or the failure to assert by Landlord against Tenant, or Tenant’s successors



D-2





and assigns, of any of the rights or remedies reserved to Landlord pursuant to provisions of the Lease.

7.

This Guaranty is an absolute and unconditional guaranty of payment and of performance, regardless of any law, regulation, or decree now or in the future in effect which might in any manner affect the obligations of Tenant or any rights of Landlord, or cause or permit to be invoked any alteration of time, amount, currency, or manner of payment of any of the obligations guaranteed. This Guaranty shall be enforceable against Guarantor without the necessity for any suit or proceeding on Landlord’s part of any kind or nature whatsoever against Tenant, without the necessity that resort be had to any security or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of Landlord in favor of Tenant or any other person or entity. No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Lease shall affect, impair or be a defense to this Guaranty and this Guaranty shall constitute a primary obligation of the undersigned.

8.

Each reference herein to Landlord shall be deemed to include its successors and assigns, in whose favor the provisions of this Guaranty shall also inure.
