Section 4.03. Personal Property Taxes. Tenant shall pay before delinquency all personal taxes and assessments on the furniture, fixtures, equipment and other property of Tenant located in the Premises and on additions and improvements in the Premises belonging to Tenant.

Section 4.04. Reconciliation. Landlord shall, after the end of each calendar year, furnish to Tenant a statement (which statement shall include a copy of the relevant quarterly Real Estate Tax bill or bills) of the actual amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share for the preceding calendar year. If the amount paid by Tenant hereunder is less than the actual amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share for said calendar year, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord’s statement, pay to Landlord the deficiency. If the amount paid by Tenant hereunder exceeds the actual amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share for said calendar year, such excess shall be credited against the next monthly installment or installments of Tenant’s Proportionate Share due from Tenant to Landlord hereunder, or shall be refunded to Tenant if such excess relates to the calendar year in which the Lease Term expires.

Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Tenant from and against any liability or expense including reasonable counsel fees and costs of litigation, for any damage or injury to persons or property in or about the Property which may result from the acts or omissions of Landlord, its agents, employees, contractors, or invitees or any default by Landlord under this Lease.

11

Notwithstanding anything to contrary in any other section of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) each party will, to the fullest extent possible, be required to make a claim under insurance carried or required to be carried by such party under this Lease before asserting a claim for indemnification against the other party under this Section 7.06 (it being acknowledged and agreed by Landlord and Tenant that claims for indemnification against the other party under this Section 7.06 shall be limited to claims not covered by insurance maintained by the party seeking to assert a claim for indemnification) and (ii) nothing herein shall in any way diminish or impair the mutual waiver of subrogation provisions set forth above, which shall be paramount and controlling.

Section 7.07. Exculpation of Landlord. Landlord shall not be liable for injury or damage which may be sustained by the person, goods, wares, merchandise or property of Tenant, its employees, invitees or customers or any other person in or about the Premises caused or resulting from any action or omission by third parties other than Landlord’s employees, agents and contractors.

In addition to the certificates of insurance, Tenant shall, on request, provide evidence reasonably acceptable to Landlord that Landlord and its fee mortgagee is an additional insured or an insured as its interest may appear and a co-loss payee under the insurance policies.

ARTICLE VIII

Repairs and Restoration

Section 8.01. Insurance or Minor Damage. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.03, if at any time during the Term hereof the Premises is destroyed or damaged and either (a) such damage is not “substantial” as that term is hereinafter defined, or (b) such damage was caused by a casualty required to be insured against under Section 7.03, Landlord shall commence the repair of such damage within sixty (60) days following the receipt of insurance proceeds, subject to extension for reasons of Force Majeure, and shall proceed with due diligence to complete such repair, at Landlord’s expense and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If the

12

proceeds of insurance are not available in a sufficient amount, or if the damage was not required to be insured, then Landlord may elect to cancel the Term of this Lease.

Section 8.02. Major Damage. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.03, if at any time during the Term hereof the Premises is destroyed or damaged and if such damage is “substantial” as that term is hereinafter defined, and if such damage was caused by a casualty not required to be insured against under Section 7.03, then Landlord may at its option either (a) commence the repair of such damage within sixty (60) days following the receipt of insurance proceeds, subject to extension for reasons of Force Majeure, and shall proceed with due diligence to complete such repair, at Landlord’s expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (b) cancel and terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage, by giving Tenant written notice of its election to do so within sixty (60) days after the date of occurrence of such damage; provided, however, that Landlord shall only terminate this Lease if all other leases at the property similarly damaged all also terminated by Landlord.

Section 8.03. Damage Near End of Term. If the Premises are destroyed during the last twelve (12) months of the Term of this Lease and the estimated cost of repair exceeds ten (10%) percent of the Basic Rent then remaining to be paid by Tenant for the balance of the Term, either party may, at their option, cancel and terminate this Lease as of the date of this occurrence of such damage by giving written notice to the other party of its election to do so within thirty (30) days after the date of occurrence of such damage. If neither party shall so elect to terminate this Lease, the repair of such damage shall be governed by Section 8.01 or Section 8.02, as the case may be.

Section 8.04. Abatement of Rent; Tenant’s Remedies. (A) If the Premises is destroyed or damaged and this Lease is not terminated, Tenant shall continue the operation of its business in the Premises to the extent reasonably practicable in Tenant’s reasonable judgement, and the Basic Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder for the period during which such damage, repair or restoration continues shall be abated in proportion to the degree to which Tenant’s use of the Premises is impaired. Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for any damage suffered by Tenant by reason of any such damage, destruction, repair or restoration. For clarity, commencing on the date of a casualty until substantial completion of the restoration, the Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated (or such portion thereof that Tenant cannot occupy).

(B)If Landlord shall be obligated to repair or restore the Premises under the provisions of this Article VIII and shall not commence such repair or restoration within sixty (60) days after such obligation shall accrue, subject to extension for reasons of Force Majeure, Tenant may at its option cancel and terminate this Lease, as its sole and exclusive remedy against Landlord, as of the date of occurrence of such damage by giving Landlord written notice of its election to do so at any time prior to the commencement of such repair or restoration.

Section 8.05. Reconstruction of Improvements. In the event of any reconstruction of the Premises under this Article VIII, Landlord shall reconstruct the Premises as the same existed at the Commencement Date and the Tenant will be responsible for reconstructing its Tenant installations. Notwithstanding that all reconstruction work shall be performed by Landlord’s contractor unless Landlord shall otherwise agree in writing, Landlord’s obligation to reconstruct

13

the Premises shall be only to the extent of leasehold improvements as originally constructed as of the Commencement Date except for any connecting corridor or passage; Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for the repair and restoration and the replacement of its stock in trade, trade fixtures, furniture, furnishings and equipment. Tenant shall commence the installation of fixtures, equipment and merchandise hereof promptly upon delivery to it of possession of the Premises and shall diligently prosecute such installation to completion.

Section 8.06. Definitions. (A) For the purpose of this Article, “substantial” damage to the Premises shall be deemed to be damage, the estimated cost of repair of which exceeds one- fifth (1/5) of the then estimated replacement cost of the Property of which the Premises is a part.

Section 8.07. Substantial Damage to Property. In the event of substantial damage to the Property at any time during the Term hereof, regardless of whether or not the Premises is affected thereby, then Landlord may, at its option, either (a) commence the repair of such damage within ninety (90) days following the receipt of insurance proceeds, subject to extension for reasons of Force Majeure, and proceed with due diligence to complete such repair, at Landlord’s expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (b) cancel and terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence of such damage, by giving Tenant written notice of its election to do so within sixty (60) days after the date of occurrence of such damage. As used in this Section 8.07, substantial damage to the Property shall mean damage to the Property where the estimated cost of repair to said Property exceeds one-sixth (1/6) of the then estimated replacement cost of the Property.

Assignment and Subletting

Section 9.01. Approval. Tenant shall not assign, mortgage, pledge or otherwise transfer this Lease, in whole or in part, nor sublet or permit occupancy by any party other than Tenant of all or any part of the Premises, without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance pursuant to the terms herein. In the event Landlord consents to a proposed assignment or sublease, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.02, Tenant shall submit to Landlord in writing (1) the name of the proposed assignee or sublessee, (2) such information as to its financial responsibility and standing as Landlord may reasonably require, (3) a resume outlining the proposed assignee’s or sublessee’s previous operating experience, and (4) all of the terms and conditions upon which the proposed assignment or subletting is to be made. This Lease may not be assigned by operation of law. Any purported assignment or subletting shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity for such consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. Under no circumstances may Tenant sublet any portion of the Premises.

In no event shall the proposed assignee or sublessee change the Use of Premises defined in Section 5.01.

14

Section 9.02. Landlord Consent. (A) Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Lease (whether by operation of law, transfers of interests in Tenant or otherwise), mortgage or encumber its interest in this Lease, in whole or in part; sublet, or permit the subletting of the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the Premises or any part thereof to be occupied or used by any person other than Tenant. Any consent by Landlord to any such assignment, transfer, or subletting shall in no event be construed to relieve Tenant from obtaining the prior consent of Landlord to any other or further such assignment, transfer or subletting.

(B)Except as specifically set forth above, no portion of the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease may be acquired by any other person or entity, whether by assignment, mortgage, sublease, transfer, operation of law or act of the Tenant, nor shall Tenant pledge its interest in this Lease or in any security deposit required hereunder.

Section 9.03. Bonus Rental. If Tenant receives rent or other consideration for any assignment or sublease in excess of the Basic Rent or, in the case of the sublease of a portion of the Premises, in excess of such Basic Rent that is fairly allocable to such portion, as determined by Landlord, after appropriate adjustments to assure that all other payments required hereunder are appropriately taken into account, Tenant shall pay an amount equal to [***] percent ([***]%) of such excess to Landlord promptly following receipt thereof by Tenant of the difference between each such payment of rent or other consideration and the Basic Rent required hereunder (but after first subtracting Tenant’s reasonable brokerage fees and alteration costs in connection with such sublease or assignment).

Section 9.04. Scope. If (a) this Lease is assigned, (b) any part of the underlying beneficial interest of Tenant or any Guarantor is transferred or (c) the Premises or any part thereof is sublet or occupied by anyone other than Tenant, Landlord may collect Basic Rent and Additional Rent from the assignee, subtenant or occupant and apply the net amount collected to the Basic Rent and Additional Rent herein required and apportion any excess rent so collected in accordance with the terms of Section 9.03; provided that no such assignment, subletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant, or the acceptance of this assignee, subtenant or occupant as tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. No assignment or subletting shall affect the continuing liability of Tenant (which, following assignment, shall be joint and several with the assignee), and Tenant shall not be released from performing any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease.

Section 9.05. Costs and Fees. In connection with each requested assignment or sublease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as reimbursement to Landlord for Landlord’s out-of- pocket costs and expenses, an amount not to exceed [***] ($[***]) Dollars.

Eminent Domain

Section 10.01. Entire or Substantial Taking. If the entire Premises, or so much thereof as to make the balance not reasonably adequate for the conduct of Tenant’s business notwithstanding restoration by Landlord as hereinafter provided, shall be taken under the power of eminent domain, this Lease shall automatically terminate as of the date on which the condemning authority takes possession. If a portion of the Property is taken under the power of eminent domain such that, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the remainder cannot be economically operated, Landlord may cancel this Lease on notice to Tenant, regardless of whether or not said taking includes all or part of the Premises. If forty (40%) percent or more of the Property is taken under the power of eminent domain, Tenant may cancel this Lease on notice to Landlord, regardless of whether or not said taking includes all or part of the Premises.

Section 10.02. Partial Taking. In the event of any taking under the power of eminent domain which does not so result in a termination of this Lease, the Basic Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder, as well as Tenant’s Proportionate Share, shall be reduced, effective as of the date on which the condemning authority takes possession, in the same proportion which the Floor Area of the portion of the Premises taken bears to the Floor Area of the entire Premises prior to the taking. Landlord shall promptly at its expense, but only to the extent of so much of the award as is attributable to the Premises, restore the portion of the Premises not so taken to as near its former condition as is reasonably possible, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect.

Section 10.03. Awards. Any award for any taking of all or any part of the Premises under the power of eminent domain shall be the property of Landlord, whether such award shall be made as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or for taking of the fee. Nothing contained herein, however, shall be deemed to preclude Tenant from obtaining, or to give Landlord any interest in, any award to Tenant for loss of or damage to Tenant’s trade fixtures and removable personal property or for moving expenses or any other damages available to Tenant that do not limit Landlord’s awards.

Section 10.04. Sale Under Threat of Condemnation. A sale by Landlord to any authority having the power of eminent domain, either under threat of condemnation or while condemnation proceedings are pending, shall be deemed a taking under the power of eminent domain for all purposes under this Article.

Utility Services

Section 11.01. Utility Charges. Electricity and gas shall be separately metered and Tenant shall be solely responsible for the payment of the same. If any such charges are not paid when due, Landlord may pay the same, and any amount so paid by Landlord shall become due to Landlord from Tenant as Additional Rent within ten (10) days after Landlord provides Tenant

16

with notice and evidence that such amount was paid by Landlord. Water and sewer are not separately metered and such charges shall be included in the common area costs.

Section 11.02. Furnishing of Services. If Landlord shall elect to furnish any utility services to the Premises, Tenant shall purchase its requirements thereof from Landlord so long as the rates charged therefor by Landlord do not exceed those which Tenant would be required to pay if such services were furnished it directly by a public utility.

Section 11.03. Interruption of Service. Landlord shall not be liable in damages or otherwise for any failure or interruption of any utility service being furnished the Premises, unless Landlord has failed to fully restore such service after a reasonable time after written notice from Tenant of the existence of such problems with utility service; provided, however, no such failure or interruption shall entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease, Tenant’s remedies being limited to abatement or equitable reduction of Basic Rent hereunder.

Section 11.04. Electric Deregulation. If permitted by law, Landlord shall have the right at any time and from time to time during the Lease Term to either contract for service from a different company or companies providing electricity service (each such company shall hereinafter be referred to as an “Alternate Service Provider”) or continue to contract for service from the current electric service provider.

Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with Landlord, the current electric service provider, and any Alternate Service Provider at all times and, as reasonably necessary, shall allow Landlord, the current electric service provider, and any Alternate Service Provider reasonable access to the Property’s electric lines, feeders, risers, wiring, and any other machinery within the Premises upon at least twenty-four (24) hours prior notice (which, notwithstanding the terms of the Basic Lease Provisions, may be given solely by telephone or electronic mail) except in the case of emergencies.

(D)(i) The making by Tenant or any Guarantor of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) the filing by or against Tenant or any Guarantor of a petition to have Tenant or Guarantor adjudged a bankrupt for a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law existing to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant or Guarantor, the same is dismissed within ninety (90) days); (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within ninety (90) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within ninety (90) days.

Section 12.02. Remedies. (A) If, during the Term, any one or more of the acts or occurrences enumerated in Section 12.01 (any one of such occurrences or acts existing beyond all applicable notice and cure periods being hereinafter called an Event of Default) shall happen, then, and in any such event, and during the continuance thereof, the Landlord may, at its option, then or thereafter while any such Event of Default shall continue and notwithstanding the fact that the Landlord may have any other remedy hereunder or at law or in equity, by notice to the Tenant, designate a date, not less than ten (10) days after the giving of such notice, on which this Lease shall terminate; and thereupon, on such date the Term of this Lease and the estate hereby granted shall expire and terminate upon the date specified in such notice with the same force and effect as if the date specified in such notice was the date hereinbefore fixed for the expiration of the Term of this Lease, and all rights of the Tenant hereunder shall expire and terminate, but the Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided. Additionally, Tenant agrees to pay, as Additional Rent, all actual out-of-pocket attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred by the Landlord in enforcing any of the obligations under this Lease, this covenant to survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

(B)If this Lease is terminated as provided above, or as permitted by law, the Tenant shall peaceably quit and surrender the Premises to the Landlord, and the Landlord may, without further notice, enter upon, re-enter, possess the same by summary proceedings, ejectment or other legal proceedings, and again have, repossess and enjoy the same as if this Lease had not been made, and in any such event neither the Tenant nor any person claiming through or under the Tenant by virtue of any law or an order of any court shall be entitled to possession or to remain in possession of the Premises. Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of the Landlord, in any bankruptcy or reorganization or insolvency proceeding, to prove for and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such termination an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any bankruptcy or reorganization or insolvency proceedings, or to prove for and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such termination, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law whether such amount shall be greater or less than the excess referred to above.

The obligation and liability of the Tenant to pay the Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall survive the commencement, prosecution and termination of any action to secure possession of the Premises. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require the Landlord to wait to begin such action or other legal proceedings until the date when this Lease would have expired had there not been an Event of Default.

(D)The Tenant hereby waives all right of redemption to which the Tenant or any person under it may be entitled by any law now or hereafter in force. The Landlord’s remedies hereunder are in addition to any remedy allowed by law.

(E)In the event of any breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the agreements, terms, covenants or conditions contained in this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to enjoin such breach or threatened breach and shall have the right to invoke any right or remedy allowed at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise as though re-entry, summary dispossess proceedings, and other remedies were not provided for in this Lease. During the pendency of any proceedings brought by Landlord to recover possession by reason of default, Tenant shall continue all money payments required to be made to Landlord, and Landlord may accept such payments for use and occupancy of the Premises. In such event, Tenant waives its right in such proceedings to claim as a defense that the receipt of such money payments by Landlord constitutes a waiver by Landlord of such default.

Section 12.03. Default by Landlord. Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by it hereunder unless and until it has failed to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice by Tenant to

19

Landlord specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform such obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for its performance, then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion.

Section 12.04. Expense of Litigation. If either party incurs any expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in connection with any action or proceeding instituted by either party by reason of any default or alleged default of the other party hereunder, or pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, the party prevailing in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover its said reasonable expense from the other party.

The rights of Tenant in and to the Common Areas shall at all times be subject to the rights of Landlord and the other tenants of Landlord on the Property to use the same in common with

20

Tenant, and Tenant shall keep said areas free and clear of any obstructions created or permitted by Tenant or resulting from Tenant’s operation. If in the opinion of Landlord unauthorized persons are using any of said areas by reason of the presence of Tenant on the Property, Tenant, upon written demand of Landlord, shall undertake commercially reasonable efforts to restrain such unauthorized use by appropriate action.

Once Landlord shall have finally determined said Common Area Costs at the expiration of a Lease Year and delivered a written notice or statement thereof, then Tenant shall only be entitled to dispute said charge as finally established for a period of six (6) months after such charge is finally established and written notice or statement thereof is provided to Tenant, and Tenant specifically waives any right to dispute any such charge at the expiration of said six month period. If it is determined that Landlord overcharged Tenant by more than [***] percent ([***]%) of the actual Common Area Costs, then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant’s actual and reasonable out-of-pocket audit charges.

ARTICLE XIV

Signs and Lighting

Section 14.01. Exterior Sign. Tenant will be permitted to install an exterior sign on the Premises, with the location, size and materials to be used for such sign to be reasonably acceptable to Landlord and shall, in all events, comply with the specifications promulgated by the Landlord for the building in which the Premises are located. Tenant shall obtain, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, any and all permits and approvals required by any governmental authority for Tenant’s signage, provided, however, that Landlord consents to the signage as set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto.

ARTICLE XV

Security Deposit

Section 15.01. Tenant has deposited with Landlord the sum stipulated in the Basic Lease Provisions, as security for the full and faithful performance of every provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease (after notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period), including but not limited to the provisions relating to the payment of Basic Rent and Additional Rent, Landlord may use, apply or retain all or any part of this security deposit for the payment of any Basic Rent or Additional Rent or other sum in default, or for the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant’s default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant’s default. If any portion of said deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall within five (5) days after written demand therefor deposit cash

24

with Landlord in amount sufficient to restore the security deposit to its original amount and Tenant’s failure to do so shall be an Event of Default under this Lease. Landlord shall not be required to keep this security deposit separate from its funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such deposit. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the security deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord’s option, to the last assignee of Tenant’s interest hereunder) at the expiration of the Term.

In the event of the insolvency of Tenant or in the event of the entry of a judgment in bankruptcy in any court against Tenant which is not discharged within thirty (30) days after entry, or in the event a petition is filed by or against Tenant under any chapter of the bankruptcy laws of the State of New Jersey or the United States of America, then and in such event Landlord may require the Tenant to deposit additional security in an amount which in Landlord’s sole judgment would be sufficient to adequately assure Tenant’s performance of all of its obligations under this Lease, including all payments subsequently accruing. Failure of Tenant to deposit the security required by this Section within ten (10) days after Landlord’s written demand shall constitute a material breach of this Lease by Tenant.

Section 16.10. Waivers. No waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by Tenant of the same or any other provision. Landlord’s consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord’s consent or approval shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Landlord’s consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Tenant, whether or not similar to the act so consented to or approved.

Section 16.11. Recording. Neither this Lease, nor any memorandum or “short form” thereof, may be recorded.

Section 16.12. Liens.

If, because of any act or omission (or alleged act or omission) of Tenant, any construction lien claim or other lien (collectively “Lien”), charge, or order for the payment of money or other encumbrance shall be filed against Landlord and/or any ground or underlying lessor and/or any portion of the Premises (whether or not such Lien, charge, order, or encumbrance is valid or enforceable as such), Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, cause same to be discharged of record or bonded within thirty (30) days after the filing thereof; and Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless Landlord and all ground and underlying lessor(s) against and from all costs, liabilities, suits, penalties, claims, and demands, including reasonable counsel fees, resulting therefrom.

All materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics, laborers, and any other persons now or hereafter contracting with Tenant or any contractor or subcontractor of Tenant for the furnishing of any labor services, materials, supplies, or equipment with respect to any portion of the Premises, at any time from the date hereof until the end of the Lease Term, are hereby charged with notice that they look exclusively to Tenant to obtain payment from same.

Section 16.13. Subordination. This Lease shall be subordinate to any first mortgage or first deed of trust that may exist or hereafter be placed upon the Property or any part thereof and to any and all advances to be made thereunder and to the interest thereon and to all renewals, replacements and extensions thereof. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after written demand by Landlord execute such instruments as may be required at any time and from time to time to subordinate the rights and interest to Tenant under this Lease to the lien of any such mortgage or deed of trust, or, if requested by Landlord, to subordinate any such mortgage or deed of trust to this Lease. Tenant shall, in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed of trust, attorn to the purchaser upon foreclosure sale or sale under power of sale, and shall recognize such purchaser as Landlord under this Lease.

27

Section 16.14. Fixtures and Personal Property. Any trade fixtures, signs and other personal property of the Tenant not permanently affixed to the Premises shall remain the property of the Tenant and the Landlord agrees that the Tenant shall have the right, provided the Tenant be not in default under the terms of this Lease beyond all applicable notice and cure periods, at any time, and from time to time, prior to the expiration or termination of the Term of this Lease, to remove any and all of its trade fixtures, signs and other personal property which it may have stored or installed in the Premises, including but not limiting the same to counters, shelving, showcases, mirrors and other movable personal property. The Tenant at its expense shall immediately repair any damage occasioned to the Premises by reason of the removal of any such trade fixtures, signs, and other personal property, and upon the last day of the Term or a date of earlier termination of this Lease, shall leave the Premises in a neat and clean condition, free of debris.

All permanent improvements to the Premises by the Tenant, including but not limited to, lighting fixtures, floor covering and partitions, but excluding trade fixtures and signs, shall become the property of Landlord upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Unless directed otherwise by Landlord solely with respect to Special Alterations (as hereinafter defined), Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any alterations in the Premises upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. For purposes of this Lease, “Special Alterations” shall mean items such as kitchens, vaults, raised or reinforced flooring or other items which are unusually difficult or expensive to remove (but specifically excluding any private restrooms that Tenant may install in connection with Tenant’s initial occupancy of the Premises). Landlord shall advise Tenant if any alteration is a Special Alteration at the time of Landlord’s consent to such alteration.

Section 16.15. Quiet Enjoyment. The Landlord covenants that if, and so long as, the Tenant pays the Basic Rent and Additional Rent as herein provided, and performs the covenants hereof, the Landlord shall do nothing to affect the Tenant’s right to peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term herein mentioned, subject to the provisions of this Lease, the Condominium Documents (hereinafter defined) and to any mortgage or deed of trust to which this Lease shall be subordinate.

Section 16.16. Intentionally omitted.

Section 16.17. Holding Over. If the Tenant shall remain in the Premises after the expiration of the Term without having executed and delivered a new lease or extension/renewal agreement with the Landlord, such holding over shall not constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease. The Landlord may, at its option, elect to treat the Tenant as one who has not removed at the end of its Term, and thereupon be entitled to all the remedies against the Tenant provided by law in that situation, or the Landlord may elect, at its option, to construe such holding over as a tenancy from month to month, subject to all the terms and conditions of this Lease, except as to duration thereof, and in that event the Tenant shall pay Monthly Basic Rent and Additional Rent in advance at the rate as provided for by law, but in no event less than the rate provided herein for the last month of the Term.

Section 16.18. Payments. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Basic Rent and Additional Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other

28

than on account of the earliest stipulated Basic Rent and Additional Rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check, any letter accompanying any check or payment as Basic Rent and Additional 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 Basic Rent and Additional Rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.

Section 16.19. No Partnership. It is agreed that nothing contained in this Lease shall be deemed or construed as creating a partnership, joint venture, or of any association between Landlord and Tenant, or cause Landlord to be responsible in any way for the debts or obligations of Tenant, and neither the method of computing Basic Rent and Additional Rent nor any other provision contained in this Lease nor any acts of the parties hereto shall be deemed to create any relationship between Landlord and Tenant other than the relationship of Landlord and Tenant.

Section 16.20. No Option. The submission of this Lease or examination does not constitute a reservation of, or option for, the Premises, and this Lease becomes effective as a Lease only upon execution and delivery thereof by Landlord and Tenant.

Section 16.21. Personal Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Lease, it is understood and agreed, such agreement being a primary consideration for the execution of this Lease by Landlord, that there shall be absolutely no personal liability on the part of Landlord, its successors, assigns or any mortgagee in possession (for the purposes of this Section, collectively referred to as “Landlord”), with respect to any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, and that Tenant shall look solely to the equity of Landlord in the Property for the satisfaction of each and every remedy of Tenant in the event of any breach by Landlord of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed by Landlord, such exculpation of liability to be absolute and without any exceptions whatsoever. A deficit capital account in Landlord shall not be deemed an asset or property of Landlord. The foregoing limitation of liability shall be noted in any judgment secured against Landlord and in the judgment index.

Section 16.22. Intentionally omitted.

Section 16.23. Corporate Authority. If Tenant is a corporation, the persons executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant hereby covenant and warrant that (i) they are duly authorized by appropriate resolution and/or the articles and by-laws of said corporation to execute this Lease and thereby bind Tenant to all the terms and conditions thereof, (ii) Tenant is a duly qualified corporation and all steps have been taken prior to the execution of this Lease to qualify Tenant to do business in the state where the Property is situated, (iii) all franchise and corporate taxes have been paid as of the date of execution, and (iv) all future forms, reports, fees and other documents necessary to comply with applicable laws will be filed when due.

ISRA Compliance

Section 18.01. Tenant acknowledges the existence of environmental laws, rules and regulation, including but not limited to the provisions of ISRA, as hereinafter defined. Tenant shall comply with any and all such laws, rules and regulations as applicable to the Premises. Tenant represents to Landlord that Tenant’s Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Number as designated in the Standard Industrial Classification Manual prepared by the Office of Management and Budget in the Executive Office of the President of the United States will not subject the Premises to ISRA applicability. Any change by Tenant to an operation with an SIC Number subject to ISRA shall require Landlord’s written consent. Any such proposed change shall be sent in writing to Landlord sixty (60) days prior to the proposed change. Landlord, at its sole option, may deny consent.

Tenant agrees not to generate, store, manufacture, refine, transport, treat, dispose of, or otherwise permit to be present on or about the Premises, any Hazardous Substances.

31

applications as are required to comply with ISRA in connection with closing, terminating or transferring operations or sale of the property or business entity of Landlord. Tenant shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord associated with any required ISRA compliance resulting from Tenant’s use of the Premises including but not limited to state agency fees, engineering fees, clean-up costs, filing fees and suretyship expenses. As used in this Lease, ISRA compliance shall include applications for determinations of nonapplicability by the appropriate governmental authority. The foregoing undertaking shall survive the termination or sooner expiration of the Lease and surrender of the Premises and shall also survive sale, or lease or assignment of the Premises by Landlord. Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any violation of ISRA occasioned by Tenant’s use of the Premises, including reasonable counsel fees and costs of litigation.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Tenant shall be permitted to keep small quantities of normal supplies which are used in connection with Tenant’s business and normal cleaning supplies and copier supplies, even though they may be Hazardous Substances, provided the same are properly stored, handled and disposed of in full compliance with all environmental laws.

In the event Tenant fails to comply with ISRA as stated in this Section as of the termination or sooner expiration of the Lease and as a consequence thereof Landlord is unable to rent the Premises, then the Landlord shall treat the Tenant as one who has not removed at the end of its Term, and thereupon be entitled to all remedies against the Tenant provided by law in that situation, including Monthly Basic Rent of [***] ([***]%) percent of the Monthly Basic Rent for the last month of the Term or any renewal term, payable in advance on the first day of each month, until such time as Tenant provides Landlord with a no further action letter or confirmation that any required clean-up plan has been successfully completed.

Landlord shall deliver the Premises to Tenant free of all hazardous materials and in compliance with environmental laws. If Tenant discovers any hazardous materials in the Premises that are not brought into the Premises by Tenant (or its agents, contractors, employees or invitees), Landlord shall remediate such hazardous materials so that the same are in compliance with laws at Landlord’s sole cost and expense (and not chargeable to Tenant as an operating expense). Additionally, if Tenant cannot occupy the Premises during any such remediate, the Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated during such time period.

Option Period

Section 22.01. It is agreed that, during the period when Tenant is attempting to obtain its approval from the New Jersey Department of Health, as discussed hereinabove, neither party will enter into negotiations to lease premises in Rochelle Park to any third party for use as a medical marijuana facility as long as Tenant is pursuing such approval diligently and in good faith. In consideration for such forbearance by Landlord, Tenant shall cause its Guarantor to pay to Landlord the sum of [***] ($[***]) Dollars, in advance, on the first day of each calendar month until the first to occur of (i) the cancellation of this Lease as contemplated in Section 2.01(B), or (ii) the date on which Tenant obtains its approval from the New Jersey Department of Health.
