WHEREAS, Assignor wishes to assign its rights, title and interest as tenant to the Premises to HDS, and HDS wishes to accede to such rights and has agreed to assume the obligations of Assignor with respect to the Premises; and

WHEREAS, Landlord has agreed to the assignment by Assignor and assumption by HDS of the rights and obligations as tenant to the Premises on the condition that the Initial Lease be amended and restated;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

Landlord and HDS (hereinafter “Tenant”) have agreed to enter into this Assignment and Amended and Restated Lease, pursuant to which HDS shall accede to the rights and obligations of Assignor as tenant of the Premises on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

(A)         The security deposit held by Landlord under the Maxxim Lease, shall be held by Landlord hereunder for the benefit of Tenant. The total Security Deposit due from Tenant under this Lease shall be as set forth in the Amended & Restated Reference Page hereto, including Schedule “A” thereto (together, the “Reference Page”).

(B)         Tenant hereby assumes, and agrees to be bound by, all of the covenants, agreements and obligations of Tenant under the Lease to the extent that the same arise or are incurred or are required to be performed on and after the date hereof and continuing during the Term.

(C)         Assignor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Tenant harmless from and against all claims and demands of Landlord or any of its predecessors arising under the Maxxim Lease as a result of Assignor's performance of, or failure to perform, the covenants, agreements and obligations of the tenant thereunder through the date hereof. Assignor shall pay all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by Tenant in enforcing this indemnity. Landlord hereby releases Assignor from all obligations of a tenant with respect to the Premises from and after the date hereof.

(D)         Tenant hereby assumes all of the obligations of tenant under the Lease with respect to the Premises after the date hereof. Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Assignor harmless from and against all claims and demands of Landlord, its successors and assigns under this Lease and any extensions, renewals or modifications hereof arising as a result of Tenant's performance of, or failure to perform, the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Tenant hereunder to be kept and performed by Tenant under this Lease from and after the date hereof, and shall pay all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by Assignor in enforcing this indemnity.

(E)         Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord the Premises set forth and described on the Reference Page. The Reference Page, including all terms defined thereon, is hereby incorporated as part of this Lease.

The Premises shall be continuously used and occupied by Tenant, but only for the purposes listed on the Reference Page and for such other lawful purposes as may be incidental thereto, all to the extent permitted by applicable zoning regulations. Subject to the provisions of Section 9 hereof, Tenant shall at its own cost and expense obtain any and all licenses and permits necessary for any such use. The parking of automobiles, trucks or other vehicles in the areas not specifically designated on Exhibit A and the outside storage of any property are prohibited without Landlord’s prior written consent. Tenant shall comply with all governmental laws, ordinances and regulations applicable to the Tenant's use of the Premises and its occupancy thereof, and shall promptly comply with all governmental orders and directives for the correction, prevention and abatement of any violations or nuisances in or upon, or connected with, the Premises, all at Tenant’s sole expense. If, as a result of any change in the governmental laws, ordinances and regulations, the Premises must be altered to lawfully accommodate Tenant’s use and occupancy thereof, such alterations shall be made only with the consent of Landlord, but the entire cost thereof shall be borne by Tenant; provided, that, the necessity of Landlord’s consent shall in no way create any liability against Landlord for failure of Tenant to comply, or alter the Premises to comply, with such laws, ordinances and regulations. Tenant shall not permit any objectionable or unpleasant odors, smoke, dust, gas, noise or vibrations to emanate from the Premises, nor take any other action which would constitute a nuisance or would disturb or endanger any other tenants of the Building, or unreasonably interfere, with such tenants’ use of their respective premises. Without Landlord’s prior written consent, Tenant shall not receive, store or otherwise handle any product, material or merchandise which is explosive or highly flammable. Tenant will not permit the Premises to be used for any purpose (including, without limitation, the storage of merchandise) in any manner which would render the insurance thereon void or increase the insurance rate thereof, and Tenant shall immediately cease and desist from such use, paying all cost and expense resulting from such improper use.

Tenant shall not use or permit any use of the Premises in a manner which creates any safety or environmental hazard, or which would be dangerous to the Premises. Also, other than subject to applicable law, Tenant shall not use the Premises for the generation, use, manufacture, refining, recycling, transportation, treatment, storage, discharge or disposal of any hazardous, toxic or polluting substance or waste or for any purpose which poses a substantial risk of damage to the environment and not engage in any activity which would subject Landlord, Tenant or the Premises to any liability, obligation or affirmative act under the provisions of any federal, state or local environmental law, regulation, order or ordinance, whether now existing or hereafter enacted, and Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from all liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, any cleanup costs under any federal or state superfund-type statute) arising by reason of a breach of this covenant and the parties hereto specifically agree that this covenant shall survive the term of this Lease.

Tenant shall provide to the landlord, at least thirty (30) days prior to Tenant's occupancy of the Premises, a list of all chemicals that it anticipates will be stored in the Premises or used in any manufacturing process to be conducted on the Premises and information on how such chemicals ill be handled, moved, stored, consumed and disposed in a manner that will comply with all applicable environmental laws. Tenant shall promptly send to Landlord an update for such list as needed to the extent other additional chemicals are used in the process or stored in the Premises in the future.

The term of this Lease shall be as indicated on the Reference Page (unless sooner terminated as herein provided).

Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the Annual Base Rent (“Annual Rent”) during the Term by paying the Monthly Installment of Rent on or before the first day of each full calendar month during the Term. Rent for any period during the Term which is less than one full month shall be a prorated portion of the Monthly Installment of Rent based upon a 30-day month. Said rent shall be paid to Landlord, without deduction or offset and without notice or demand at the Landlord’s address, as set forth on the Reference Page, or to such other person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing.

Tenant recognizes that late payment of any rent or other sum due hereunder will result in administrative expense to Landlord, the extent of which additional expense is extremely difficult and economically impractical to ascertain. Tenant therefore agrees that if rent or any other sum is due and payable pursuant to this Lease, and when such amount remains due and unpaid five (5) days after said amount is due, such amount shall be increased by a late charge in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the unpaid rent or other payment. The amount of the late charge to be paid by Tenant shall be reassessed and added to Tenant’s obligation for each successive monthly period until paid. The provisions of this Section in no way relieve Tenant of the obligation to pay rent or other payments on or before the date on which they are due, nor do the terms of this Section in any way affect Landlord’s remedies pursuant to Section 22 of this Lease in the event said rent or other payment is unpaid after the date due.

No security or guarantee which may now or hereafter be furnished to Landlord for the payment of rent or the performance of Tenant’s other obligations under this Lease shall in any way constitute a bar to the recovery of the Premises or defense to any action in unlawful detainer or to any other action which Landlord may bring for a breach of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease.

This Lease is what is commonly called a “Net, Net, Net Lease.” It is the intention of Landlord and Tenant that Annual Rent shall be absolutely net to Landlord and that all costs, expenses and obligations of every kind relating directly or indirectly in any way, foreseen and unforeseen, to the Tenant’s use, occupancy and possession of the Premises, which may arise or become due during the Term of this Lease, or any extension thereof, shall be paid by Tenant. Such Annual Rent and all additional rent, as defined herein, shall be paid without abatement, diminution, reductions, deduction or setoff.

The Annual Rent and the Monthly Installments of Rent due from February 1, 2002 through January 31, 2012 shall be as set forth on Schedule “A” hereto.” Tenant agrees to pay the Annual Rent specified herein, together with any additional rent required hereunder, in equal monthly increments, on the first day of each month for all months remaining in the initial Term of the Lease, as set forth on Schedule “A” hereto.

As security for performance of its obligations hereunder and upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord and agrees to maintain hereafter, a Security Deposit of Nine Thousand Six Hundred Twenty-five Dollars ($9,625.00). Subject to this Section 4, Landlord shall place the Security Deposit in an interest bearing money market account and interest so earned from the deposit shall remain in the account and become part of the Security Deposit. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of the account number and financial institution where the Security Deposit is being held. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined in Section 21 hereof) by Tenant, Landlord may from time to time and without prejudice to any other remedy, use the Security Deposit and any interest earned thereon to the extent necessary to satisfy any arrears of Annual Rent or additional rent, or any other amount, damage, injury, expense or liability owed or caused to Landlord by such event of default. The remaining balance of such security, together with all remaining interest earned thereon, shall be returned by Landlord to Tenant within a thirty (30) days after termination of this Lease provided that there is no documented outstanding issue which could require a monetary resolution, in which event the Landlord shall have a reasonable time to investigate the same and refund the appropriate amount of the aforementioned security and interest. The Security Deposit shall not be considered an advance payment of rent or a measure of Landlord’s damages in ease of default by Tenant. In the event of the sale or transfer of Landlord’s interest in the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to transfer the Security Deposit and all interest earned thereon to the purchaser or transferee, and upon such transfer, Tenant shall look only to the new landlord for the return of the Security Deposit and interest and Landlord shall thereupon be released from all liability to Tenant for the return of or accounting for such Security Deposit and interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant agrees that Landlord’s mortgagee, if any, shall have no liability to Tenant for the return of the Security Deposit and interest or any other funds deposited with Landlord unless and until such Security Deposit and interest or other funds is in fact paid or transferred by Landlord to such mortgagee, whether or not such mortgagee is operating the Premises at any time as a mortgagee in possession or has acquired title to the Premises upon exercising its remedies under its mortgage.

Landlord agrees to pay all general and special taxes, assessments and governmental charges of any kind and nature whatsoever (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Taxes”) lawfully levied against the Building, the real property on which it is situated and the grounds, parking areas, driveways and alleys around the Building. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent upon demand at the time the bill for each installment for any tax year applicable to the Term (or any renewal or extension thereof) issues, Tenant’s Proportionate Share, as set forth on the Reference Page, of the amount of such taxes applicable to each installment less any monthly payments paid by Tenant as provided below for such tax year. Prior to the actual determination of the Taxes for a calendar year, Landlord may, if it so elects and at any time or from time to time during said calendar year, estimate the amount of such Taxes. If, in the estimation of Landlord, such Taxes will exceed the previous year’s Taxes, Landlord shall give Tenant written notification of the amount of such estimated excess and Tenant agrees that it will increase its Monthly Installment of Rent subsequent to receipt of such written notification to include such excess. If the total Tenant actually paid for estimated Taxes pursuant to this Section is more than the actual Tax, Landlord shall remit the excess to Tenant within thirty (30) days of the making of such determination or, at Landlord's election, credit such amount against the next Monthly Installments of Rent. In addition, Tenant shall pay upon demand Tenant’s Proportionate Share of any reasonable fees, expenses and costs incurred by Landlord in protesting any assessments, levies or the tax rate. Taxes shall include the following by way of illustration, but not limitation: Real estate taxes; any other such taxes, charges and assessments which are levied with respect to the Building, and any improvements, fixtures and equipment and all other property of Landlord, real or personal, located in the Building and used in connection with the operation of the Building and the land upon which they are situated including any payments to any ground lessor in reimbursement of tax payments made by such lessor; fees or assessments for any governmental services to the Building; service payments in lieu of taxes; dues or assessments payable to any property owners association due to Landlord’s ownership of the Building; water and sewer charges; and any gross receipts tax and/or any tax which shall be levied in addition to or in lieu of real estate, possessory interest or personal property taxes.

Tenant, after prior written notice to Landlord, and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall have the right to dispute by appeal any assessment of the aforementioned taxes. The Landlord may require that the Tenant deposit with Landlord a sum sufficient to pay the entire amount of any tax, charge, assessment or levy so disputed, plus potential interest and penalties. Tenant shall promptly pay and discharge all amounts determined to be payable pursuant to such legal proceedings pertaining to the appeal. Landlord agrees to join in any such proceedings only if such joinder is necessary to the prosecution thereof. The costs of such joinder shall be paid by Tenant.

Except for the alterations, additions or improvements that were to be done by Tenant as part of Tenant’s initial occupancy under the Initial Lease, as specified in Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Initial Improvements”), Tenant shall not make any alterations, improvements or additions to the Premises without the prior written approval of Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) except that Tenant may, after giving Landlord thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof (which notice shall contain a detailed written description and drawing of any contemplated alterations or improvements), make alterations, improvements and/or additions to the Premises that (a) total less than $10,000.00 in the aggregate in any given year, except in the case of emergency repairs, and (b) involve interior non-structural work to the Premises. Any alteration, addition, or improvement in, on, or to the Premises including carpeting, but excepting the “Accelerator” described in Exhibit B and movable furniture, equipment and other personal property of Tenant removable without material damage to the property or the Premises, shall be and remain the property of Tenant during the Term but shall, unless Landlord elects otherwise, become a part of the realty and belong to Landlord without compensation to Tenant upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term and title shall pass to Landlord under this Lease as by a bill of sale, which Tenant hereby agrees to execute and deliver to, and for the benefit of, Landlord on the last day of the Term in a form acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion. The Accelerator shall, at all times, be the property of Tenant. When applying for such consent, Tenant shall, if requested by Landlord, furnish complete plans and specifications for such alterations, additions and improvements. In the event Landlord consents to the making of any such alteration, addition, or improvement by Tenant, the same shall be made using a contractor reasonably acceptable to Landlord at Tenant's sole cost and expense. All alterations, additions or improvements proposed by Tenant shall be constructed in accordance with all government laws, ordinances, rules and regulations and Tenant shall, prior to construction, provide such assurances to Landlord, including, but not limited to, waivers of lien, surety company performance bonds and personal guaranties of individuals of substance, as Landlord shall require to assure payment of the costs thereof and to protect Landlord against any loss from any mechanics’, materialmen’s or other liens. Tenant shall pay in addition to any sums due pursuant to Sections 4 and 5 above any increase in real estate taxes attributable to any such alteration, addition, or improvement for so long, during the Term, as such increase is ascertainable. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term as herein provided, Tenant shall, upon demand by Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, forthwith and with all due diligence remove any such alterations, additions or improvements which are designated by Landlord to be removed, and Tenant shall forthwith and with all due diligence, at its sole cost and expense, repair and restore the Premises to their original condition, reasonable wear and tear and loss by casualty covered by Section 24 excepted.

In the event that Tenant fails to remove any alterations, additions, and/or improvements as herein described, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s costs in removing such alterations, additions and/or improvements within thirty (30) days of Tenant's receipt of notice of such costs incurred by Landlord.

(A)         Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, keep and maintain all parts of the Premises and the surrounding real estate for which Landlord is not expressly responsible under the terms of the Lease, including portions shared in common with other tenants of the Building but not including other tenants’ premises, in good condition, promptly making all necessary repairs and replacements, with materials and workmanship of the same character, kind and quality as the original, including but not limited to, windows, glass and plate glass, doors, skylights, any special office entries, interior walls and finish work, floors and floor coverings, downspouts, gutters, heating and air conditioning systems, electrical systems and fixtures, sprinkler systems, dock boards, truck doors, dock bumpers, paving, plumbing work and fixtures, termite and pest extermination, regular removal of trash and debris, regular mowing of any grass, trimming, weed removal and general landscape maintenance. Tenant, as part of its obligations hereunder, shall (i) keep the Tenant’s Parking Area, driveways, alleys and the portions of the whole of the property to which it has access, in a clean and sanitary condition and (ii) without injury to the roof, other horizontal surfaces of the Building, downspouts, parking areas, driveways and sidewalks, remove all snow and ice from same. Tenant will, as far as possible, keep all such parts of the Premises, Building and the real estate on which the Building is located from deterioration due to ordinary wear and from falling temporarily out of repair, and upon termination of this Lease in any way Tenant will yield up the Premises to Landlord in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear and loss by fire or other casualty covered by insurance to be maintained by Landlord pursuant to Section 24 hereof and any condition caused by the failure of Landlord to make a repair or replacement required to be made by Landlord pursuant to Section 9 hereof excepted (but not excepting any damage to glass or loss not reimbursed by insurance because of the existence of a deductible under the appropriate policy).

(B)         Tenant shall not damage any demising wall or disturb the integrity and support provided by any demising wall and shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly repair any damage or injury to any demising wall caused by Tenant or its employees, agents or invitees.

(C)         Tenant and its employees, customers and licensees shall have the non-exclusive right to use, in common with the other parties occupying said Building, common areas, if any, (exclusive of any parking or work load areas designated or to be designated by Landlord for the exclusive use of Tenant or other tenants occupying or to be occupying other portions of the Building), driveways and alleys adjacent to said Building, subject to such reasonable rules and regulations as Landlord may from time to time prescribe. Further, Landlord reserves the right to perform, upon notice to Tenant, the paving and landscape maintenance for the grounds around the Building, including, but not limited to, the mowing of the grass, care of shrubs, general landscaping and maintenance of common parking areas, if any, driveways and alleys, nonstructural roof repairs, exterior painting, common sewage line plumbing, and repair and maintenance of any other items, the obligations for which may be shared with other tenants in the Building and other improvements of which the Premises are a part, all of which are otherwise Tenant's obligations under Section 8(A), and Tenant shall, in lieu of the obligations set forth under Section 8(A) with respect to such items, be liable for Tenant’s Proportionate Share (as set forth on the Reference Page) of the cost and expense thereof including a reasonable management fee unless Landlord in its sole discretion determines that such cost and expense is properly allocable in another proportion or solely to either Tenant or the other tenants occupying said Building. Tenant shall pay to Landlord its share, determined as aforesaid, of such costs and expenses, upon demand, as additional rent, in the event Landlord elects to perform or cause to be performed such work.

(D)         Except as provided for herein, each time that repairs to the heating and air conditioning systems may be necessary, Tenant shall be responsible, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, for such repairs. Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, enter into a regularly scheduled, comprehensive preventive maintenance/service contract (the “Service Contract”) with a maintenance contractor approved by Landlord (and a copy thereof shall be furnished to Landlord), for servicing all heating and air conditioning systems and equipment within the Premises. The Service Contract must include all services suggested by the equipment manufacturer in the operation/maintenance manual, must be comprehensive in nature in that such Service Contract shall include the repair and/or replacement (including parts and labor) of all major and minor components of the heating and air conditioning system including, but not limited to, the heat exchangers, burners, boilers, condensers, compressors, and blower mechanisms, and must become effective within ten (10) days of the date of execution of this Lease.

(E)         Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense to the extent not covered by the insurance to be maintained by Landlord under Section 24, repair any damage to the Premises or the Building resulting from and/or caused in whole or in part by the negligence or misconduct of Tenant, its agents, servants, employees, patrons, customers, or any other person entering upon the property as a result of Tenant's business activities or caused by Tenant’s default hereunder.

(F)         Subject to Section 9 below, Tenant accepted the Premises in “as is” condition on the date of the execution of the Initial Lease, and such “as is” condition included functioning heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment and the delivery of the Premises in a broom clean condition. Tenant understands that the estimated square footage of the Premises is only an estimate and that the Annual Rent, Monthly Installments of Base Rent and Tenant's Proportionate Share shall remain unchanged regardless of whether the actual square footage is more or less.

To the extent reasonably practical and possible and not already accomplished, the Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, have all utilities for the Premises individually metered.

Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, maintain in good repair, reasonable wear and tear and any casualty covered by the provisions of Section 24 excepted, only the foundation and the structural soundness of the exterior walls and of the roof of the Building. Tenant shall immediately give Landlord written notice of any such defect or need for repairs after which Landlord shall have a reasonable opportunity to repair the same or cure such defect. Landlord’s liability with respect to any defects, repairs or maintenance for which Landlord is responsible under any of the provisions of the Lease shall be limited to the cost of such repairs or maintenance or the curing of such defect. The term “walls” as used herein shall not include windows, glass or plate glass, doors, special store fronts or office entries.

Any signs installed by Tenant (the “Signs”) upon the Premises shall be in compliance with all state and local governmental ordinances and regulations and shall not be in violation of any covenants or restrictions which may pertain to the Premises. Upon termination of the Lease, Tenant shall remove all Signs and shall restore the Premises and/or the Building in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 or, at Landlord’s option, said Signs shall become part of the realty and belong to Landlord without compensation to Tenant and title shall pass to Landlord under this Lease as by a bill of sale.

Tenant shall keep the Premises and Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall not, within ten days following the imposition of any such lien, cause the same to be released of record, Landlord shall have the right to cause the same to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All such sums paid by Landlord and all expenses incurred by it in connection therewith shall be considered additional rent and shall be payable to it by Tenant on demand with interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is lower.

(A)         Except as provided in this Section 12, Tenant shall not have the right to assign or pledge this Lease or to sublet the whole or any part of the Premises, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises by anyone other than Tenant, or assign this Lease for security purposes, without the prior written consent of Landlord (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and such restrictions shall be binding upon any assignee or subtenant to which Landlord has consented. In the event Tenant desires to sublet the Premises, or any portion thereof, or assign this Lease, Tenant shall give written notice thereof to Landlord at least sixty (60) days but no more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the proposed commencement date of such subletting or assignment, which notice shall set forth the name of the proposed subtenant or assignee, the relevant terms of any sublease and copies of financial reports and other relevant financial information of the proposed subtenant or assignee. Notwithstanding any permitted assignment or subletting, Tenant shall at all times remain directly and primarily responsible and liable for the payment of the rent herein specified and for compliance with all of its other obligations under this Lease. Upon the occurrence of an “Event of Default” (as hereinafter defined), if the Premises or any part thereof is then sublet, Landlord, in addition to any other remedies provided herein or by law, may collect directly from such subtenant all rents due and becoming due to Tenant under such sublease and apply such rent against any sums due to Landlord from Tenant hereunder. No such collection directly from an assignee or subtenant shall be construed to constitute a novation or a release of Tenant from the further performance of Tenant’s obligations hereunder.

(B)         Within sixty (60) days from receipt of a sublease or assignment request in accordance with Section 12(A), Landlord shall either:

(i)            in the event that Tenant desires to sublease less than thirty percent (30%) of the Premises to a person not a division or subsidiary of Tenant, grant or refuse consent and Tenant understands it will be reasonable for Landlord to avoid a potential multiple tenant situation which could be created by smaller sublets; or

(ii)            in the event that Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublease 30% or more of the Premises to a person not a division or subsidiary of Tenant, Landlord shall grant or refuse consent, however, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

A sublease to a division or subsidiary of Tenant is permitted without consent as long as Tenant notifies Landlord in writing and acknowledges in that notice that Tenant remains fully responsible for the obligations of the Tenant hereunder.

(C)         Consent by Landlord to any assignment or subletting shall not include consent to the assignment or transferring of any lease renewal option rights, space option rights or any special privileges or extra services granted to Tenant by this Lease, or addendum or amendment thereto or letter of agreement (and such options, rights, privileges or services shall terminate upon such assignment), unless Landlord specifically grants in writing such options, right, privileges or services to assignee or subtenant. Any sale, assignment, mortgage, transfer of this Lease or subletting which does not comply with the provisions of this Section shall be void.

(D)         INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

(E)         Should Landlord agree to authorize and execute an assignment or sublease agreement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand a sum equal to all of Landlord’s costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in connection with such assignment or transfer.

(F)         For purposes of this Section 12, any transfer or change in control of Tenant (or any subtenant, assignee, or occupant) by operation of law or otherwise shall be deemed an assignment hereunder, including, without limitation, any merger, consolidation, dissolution, or any change in the controlling equity interests of Tenant or any subtenant, assignee, or occupant (whether in a single transaction or series of transactions). Any assignment or subletting in contravention of the provisions of this Section 12 shall be void and shall be an Event of Default hereunder.

(G)         No assignment or subletting pursuant to this Section 12 shall in any way relieve or release Tenant from liability for performance of the all of the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease. Any assignee or subtenant, prior to any such assignment or subtenancy, shall promptly execute and deliver to Landlord a written agreement assuming, without modification or limitation, all of the obligations under this Lease.

Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, and Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord, for any damage to any property or any injury to any person in or about the Premises or the Building by or from any cause whatsoever (including, without limiting, the foregoing, rain or water leakage of any character from the roof, windows, walls, basement, pipes, plumbing works or appliances, the Building not being in good condition or repair, gas, fife, oil, electricity or theft); except that Landlord will indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from such claims, liabilities or costs (including court costs and attorney’s fees) for any damage to any property or any injury to any person occurring in, on or about the Premises or the Building when and to the extent such injury or damage is caused by the willful act of Landlord, or its agents, employees or contractors. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and defend Landlord against any and all claims, liability or costs (including court costs and attorney’s fees) for any damage to any property or any injury to any person occurring in, on or about the Premises or the Building unless such injury or damage shall be caused by another tenant in the Building. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Lease with respect to any claims fifty occurring prior to such termination.

(A)         Tenant shall maintain in full force and effect, at its own expense, comprehensive general liability insurance (including a contractual liability and fire legal liability insurance endorsement) naming as additional insureds Landlord’s mortgagee, if any, against claims for bodily injury, death or property damage in amounts not less than $3,000,000 (or such higher limits up to a maximum limit of $5,000,000 as may be determined by Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee from time to time, public liability insurance in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 against claims for personal injury, death or property damage suffered or occurring as a result of the use of products manufactured, constructed or sold by Tenant, or services rendered by Tenant, boiler and machinery coverage (direct damage and use and occupancy) on a replacement cost basis, and workmen's compensation insurance in an appropriate amount. Tenant shall also maintain, in full force and effect, at its own expense, in amounts (in no event less than $5,000,000) and subject to terms and conditions acceptable to Landlord, insurance coverage against any adverse environmental conditions at or near the Building and Premises created or caused by Tenant. If Tenant can not obtain such coverage to the satisfaction of Landlord, Tenant shall post an indemnity bond in amounts (in no event less than $5,000,000), and issued by a party, acceptable to Landlord, which bond shall be used to secure the Tenant’s obligations related to environmental conditions as set forth in this Lease, and in particular, Section 41 below.

(B)         All policies of insurance shall be issued by insurers which are authorized to do business in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and which have a Best's financial rating of A or better and a size class rating of XII (12) or larger or otherwise acceptable to Landlord. At or prior to Tenant’s taking possession of the Premises, Tenant shall deposit the policy or policies of insurance, or certificates thereof, with Landlord and shall deposit with Landlord renewals thereof at least thirty (30) days prior to each expiration. Said policy or policies of insurance or certificates thereof shall not be subject to contribution, and shall have attached thereto an endorsement that such policy shall not be amended, canceled or terminated without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Landlord, that such policy or policies shall not be canceled or invalidated by any use of the Premises more hazardous than permitted in such policy or policies or by any change in title to or ownership of the Premises, and that no act or omission of Tenant shall invalidate the interest of Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee under said insurance and expressly waiving all rights of subrogation as set forth in this Lease. At Landlord’s request, Tenant shall provide to Landlord at Landlord’s reasonable expense, if any, a letter from an authorized representative of its insurance carrier stating that Tenant's current and effective insurance coverage complies with the requirements contained herein.

(C)         Landlord shall maintain, at Tenant's expense to the extent of Tenant's Proportionate Share, an all risk fire and extended coverage insurance policy with respect to the Building and the Premises.

Tenant and Landlord hereby mutually waive their respective rights of recovery against each other for any loss insured, covered and actually paid by fire, extended coverage or all risk insurance now or hereafter existing for the benefit of the respective party. Each party shall obtain any special endorsements required by their insurer to evidence compliance with the aforementioned waiver.

Landlord agrees to provide, at its cost, water, electricity and telephone service connections into the Premises; but Tenant shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone, sewer, sprinkler system charges and other utilities and services used on or from the Premises, including, without limitation, Tenant's Proportionate Share of any central station signaling system installed in the Premises or the Building, together with any taxes, penalties, and surcharges or the like pertaining thereto and any maintenance charges for utilities. Tenant shall furnish all electric light bulbs, tubes and ballasts. If any such services are not separately metered to Tenant, Tenant shall pay such proportion of all charges jointly shared or metered with other premises as determined by Landlord, in its sole discretion, to be reasonable. Any such charges paid by Landlord and assessed against Tenant shall be immediately payable to Landlord on demand and shall be additional rent hereunder. Landlord shall in no event be liable for any interruption or failure of utility services on or to the Premises.

Tenant shall pay Landlord for each day Tenant retains possession of the Premises or part thereof after termination hereof by lapse of time or otherwise 150% of the amount of the Annual Rent for the last period prior to the date of such termination prorated on a daily basis, and also pay all damages sustained by Landlord by reason of such retention, and shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any loss or liability resulting from such holding over and delay in surrender. If Landlord gives notice to Tenant of Landlord’s election thereof, such holding over shall constitute renewal of this Lease for a period from month to month or for one year, whichever shall be specified in such notice, in either case at 150% of the Annual Rent being paid to Landlord under this Lease immediately prior thereto, but if the Landlord does not so elect, acceptance by Landlord of rent after such termination shall not constitute a renewal; this provision shall not be deemed to waive Landlord’s right of re-entry or any other right hereunder or at law.

(A)         Without the necessity of any additional document being executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to ground or underlying leases and to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of trust now or hereafter placed on, against or affecting the Building, Landlord's interest or estate therein, or any ground or underlying lease; provided, however, that if the lessor, mortgagee, trustee, or holder of any such mortgage or deed of trust elects to have Tenant’s interest in this Lease be superior to any such instrument, then by notice to Tenant this Lease shall be deemed superior, whether this Lease was executed before or after said instrument. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver upon demand such further instruments evidencing such subordination or superiority of this Lease as may be required by Landlord.

(B)         Upon execution of this Lease by Landlord, Landlord agrees to use Landlord’s best efforts, in Landlord's reasonable discretion, to obtain and furnish to Tenant agreement(s) (“Non-Disturbance Agreement”) executed and acknowledged in proper form except for execution on behalf of Tenant, from (i) the holder(s) of any mortgage now encumbering the Premises, and (ii) from the lessor(s) of any underlying leasehold estate or fee owner under an installment purchase agreement, if any, pursuant to which Landlord directly or indirectly derives its authority to execute this Lease (in either or any of such cases, an “Existing Holder”) whereby each Existing Holder agrees to not disturb Tenant in its rights, use and possession of the Premises under this Lease or to terminate this Lease, except to the extent permitted to Landlord by the terms of this Lease, notwithstanding the foreclosure or the enforcement of the mortgage or termination or other enforcement of an underlying lease or installment purchase agreement

Tenant shall faithfully observe and comply with all the rules and regulations as set forth in Exhibit D, if any, attached hereto and all reasonable modifications of and additions thereto from time to time put into effect by Landlord as well as all covenants, conditions and restrictions of record. Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the non-performance by any other tenant or occupant of the Building of any such rules and regulations.

During the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the Termination Date, Landlord reserves and shall at alt times have the right to reenter the Premises to show said Premises to prospective tenants. Landlord shall make a good faith effort to provide prior reasonable notice of such showings. At any time during the Term of this Lease, Landlord reserves and shall at all times have the right to re-enter the Premises to inspect the same, to supply any service to be provided by Landlord to Tenant hereunder, to show said Premises to prospective purchasers or mortgagees, and to alter, improve, or repair the Premises and any portion of the Building, without abatement of rent, and may for that purpose erect, use, and maintain scaffolding, pipes, conduits, and other necessary structures in and through the Building and Premises where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed, provided entrance to the Premises shall not be blocked thereby, and further provide that the business of Tenant shall not be interfered with unreasonably. In the event that Landlord requires access to any under-floor duct, Landlord’s liability for carpet (or other floor covering) replacement shall be limited to replacement of the piece removed. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults and safes, or special security areas (previously designated by Tenant to Landlord in writing by notice given hereunder), and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency to obtain entry to any portion of the Premises. Landlord shall also have the right at any time to change the arrangement and/or location of entrances or passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the Building, and to change the name, number or designation by which the Building is commonly known.

The following events shall be deemed to be events of default (each, an “Event of Default”) under this Lease:

(A)         Tenant fails to pay when due any sum of money becoming due to be paid to Landlord hereunder, whether such sum be any installment of the rent herein reserved, any other amount treated as additional tent hereunder, or any other payment or reimbursement to Landlord required herein, whether or not treated as additional rent hereunder, and such failure shall continue for a period of five days from the date such payment was due; or

(B)         Tenant fails to comply with any term, provision or covenant of this Lease other than by failing to pay when or before due any sum of money becoming due to be paid to Landlord hereunder; and shall not cure such failure within 20 days (forthwith, if the default involves a hazardous condition) after written notice thereof to Tenant; or

(C)         Tenant abandons or vacates any substantial portion of the Premises without continuing to perform each and every one of Tenant's obligations under this Lease including, but not limited to, the payment of rent or other sums due hereunder or the obligation to maintain and repair all parts of the Premises in accordance with Section 8 hereof; or

(D)         Tenant shall fail to vacate the Premises immediately upon termination of the Lease, by lapse of time or otherwise, or upon termination of Tenant’s right to possession only; or

(E)         The leasehold interest of Tenant shall be levied upon under execution or be attached by process of law or Tenant shall fail to contest diligently the validity of any lien or claimed lien and give sufficient security to Landlord to ensure payment thereof or shall fail to satisfy any judgment rendered thereon and have the same released, and such default shall continue for ten days after written notice thereof to Tenant; or

(F)         Tenant becomes insolvent, admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, files a petition in bankruptcy or a petition to take advantage of any insolvency statute, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, makes a transfer in fraud of creditors, applies for or consent to the appointment of a receiver of itself or of the whole or any substantial part of its property, or files a petition or answer seeking reorganization or arrangement under the federal bankruptcy laws, as now in effect or hereafter amended, or any other applicable law or statute of the United States or any state thereof; or

(G)         A court of competent jurisdiction enters an order, judgment or decree adjudicating Tenant a bankrupt, or appointing a receiver of Tenant, or of the whole or any substantial part of its property, without the consent of Tenant, or approving a petition tiled against Tenant seeking reorganization or arrangement of Tenant under the bankruptcy laws of the United States, as now in effect or hereafter amended, or any state thereof, and such order, judgment or decree is not vacated or set aside or stayed within 30 days from the date of entry thereof; or

(H)         Tenant uses or occupies the Premises other than as permitted hereunder; or

(I)         Tenant assigns or sublets, or purports to assign or sublet, the Premises or any portion thereof, other than in the manner and upon the conditions set forth herein; or

(J)         Tenant removes, attempts to remove, or manifests an intention to remove any or all of Tenant’s property from the Premises other than in the ordinary and usual course of business. Any attempt to remove all or substantially all of Tenant’s property from the Premises shall be deemed to be not in the ordinary course of business; or

(K)         Tenant fails to maintain in effect on any insurance as required by the terms of Section 24 hereof.

Upon the occurrence of any Events of Default described in Section 21 or any other default by Tenant described elsewhere in this Lease, Landlord shall have the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any notice or demand whatsoever:

(A)         Landlord may, at its election, terminate this Lease or terminate Tenant’s right to possession only, without terminating the Lease;

(B)         Upon any termination of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, or upon any termination of Tenant’s right to possession without termination of the Lease, Tenant shall surrender possession and vacate the Premises immediately, and deliver possession thereof to Landlord, and Tenant hereby grants to Landlord full and free right to enter into and upon the Premises in such event with or without process of law and to repossess Landlord of the Premises as of Landlord’s former estate and to expel or remove Tenant and any others who may be occupying or within the Premises and to remove any and all property therefrom, without being deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction or forcible entry or detainer, and without incurring any liability for any damage resulting therefrom, Tenant hereby waiving any right to claim damage for such reentry and expulsion, and without relinquishing Landlord’s right to rent or any other right given to Landlord hereunder or by operation of law;

(C)         Upon any termination of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, Landlord shall be entitled to recover as damages, all rent, including any amounts treated as additional rent hereunder, and other sums due and payable by Tenant on the date of termination, plus the sum of (i) an amount equal to the then present value of the rent, including, any amounts treated as additional rent hereunder, and other sums provided herein to be paid by Tenant for the residue of the Term hereof, less the fair rental value of the Premises for such residue (taking into account the time and expense necessary to obtain a replacement tenant or tenants, including expenses hereinafter described in sub-Section (1)) relating to recovery of the Premises, preparation for re-letting and for re-letting itself), which the parties agree shall in no event exceed 60% of the then present value of the rent for the period and (ii) the cost of performing any other covenants which would have otherwise been performed by Tenant; provided however, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Landlord will credit all rent received from re-letting the Premises against the amounts owed by Tenant;

(D)         (i)          Upon any termination of Tenant’s right to possession only without termination of the Lease, Landlord may, at Landlord’s option, enter into the Premises, remove Tenant’s signs and other evidences of tenancy, and take and hold possession thereof as provided in sub-section (B) of this Section 21 above, without such entry and possession terminating the Lease or releasing Tenant, in whole or in part, from any obligation, including Tenant’s obligation to pay the rent, including any amounts treated as additional rent, hereunder for the full Term. In any such case Tenant shall pay forthwith to Landlord, if Landlord so elects, a sum equal to the entire amount of the rent, including any amounts treated as additional rent hereunder, for the residue of the Term plus any other sums provided herein to be paid by Tenant for the remainder of the Term;

(ii)         Landlord may, but need not, relet the Premises or any part thereof for such rent and upon such terms as Landlord in its sole discretion shall determine (including the right to relet the Premises for a greater or lesser term than that remaining under this Lease, the right to relet the Premises as a part of a larger area, and the right to change the character or use made of the Premises) and Landlord shall not be required to accept any tenant offered by Tenant or to observe any instructions given by Tenant about such reletting. In any such case, Landlord may make repairs, alterations and additions in or to the Premises, and redecorate the same to the extent Landlord deems necessary or desirable, and Tenant shall, upon demand, pay the cost thereof, together with Landlord’s expenses of reletting including, without limitation, any broker’s commission incurred by Landlord. If the consideration collected by Landlord upon any such reletting plus any sums previously collected from Tenant are not sufficient to pay the full amount of all rent, including any amounts treated as additional rent hereunder and other sums reserved in this lease for the remaining term hereof, together with the costs of repairs, alterations, additions, redecorating, and Lessor’s expenses of reletting and the collection of the rent accruing therefrom, (including attorney’s fees and broker’s commissions), Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such deficiency upon demand and Tenant agrees that Landlord may file suit to recover any sums falling due under this Section from time to time;

(E)         Landlord may, at Landlord's option, enter into and upon the Premises, with or without process of law, if Landlord determines in its sole discretion, that Tenant is not acting within a commercially reasonable time to maintain, repair or replace anything for which Tenant is responsible hereunder and correct the same, without being deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction or forcible entry and detainer and without incurring any liability for any damage resulting therefrom and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord, on demand, as additional rent, for any expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with Tenant's obligations under this Lease;

(F)         Any and all property which may be removed from the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the authority of the Lease or of law, to which Tenant is or may be entitled, may be handled, removed and stored, as the case may be, by or at the direction of Landlord at the risk, cost and expense of Tenant, and Landlord shall in no event be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon demand, any and all expenses incurred in such removal and all storage charges against such property so long as the same shall be in Landlord’s possession or under Landlord’s control. Any such property of Tenant not retaken by Tenant from storage within 30 days after removal from the Premises shall, at Landlord’s option, be deemed conveyed by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease as by a bill of sale without further payment or credit by Landlord to Tenant.

(G)         In addition to all other rights and remedies of Landlord, if an Event of Default occurs, Landlord shall, to the extent permitted by law, have a right of distress for rent and lien on all of Tenant’s fixtures, merchandise and equipment in the Premises, as security for rent and all other charges payable hereunder.

(H)         SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 21, PARAGRAPHS (H) (i)-(iv) OF SECTION 22 BELOW SETS FORTH WARRANTS OF AUTHORITY FOR AN ATTORNEY TO CONFESS JUDGMENTS AGAINST TENANT. IN GRANTING THESE WARRANTS OF ATTORNEY TO CONFESS JUDGMENTS AGAINST TENANT, TENANT HEREBY KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY, AND VOLUNTARILY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TENANT HAS OR MAY HAVE TO PRIOR NOTICES AND AN OPPORTUNITY FOR HEARING UNDER THE RESPECTIVE CONSTITUTIONS AND LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES AND THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA.

(i)          UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, TENANT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AUTHORIZES AND EMPOWERS ANY ATTORNEY OR ATTORNEYS OR THE PROTHONOTARY OR CLERK OF ANY COURT OF JURISDICTION IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA, OR ELSEWHERE, AS ATTORNEY FOR TENANT, TO APPEAR FOR TENANT IN ANY SUCH COURT IN ANY APPROPRIATE PROCEEDING BROUGHT OR TO BE BROUGHT AGAINST TENANT BY LANDLORD ON THIS LEASE AND THEREIN TO CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST TENANT FOR ALL RENT AND SUMS DUE BY TENANT FOR THE UNEXPIRED TERM OF THE LEASE HEREIN TOGETHER WITH COURT COSTS AND REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES (WHICH FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SUB-SECTION SHALL BE DEEMED REASONABLE IF SUCH FEES ARE LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF THE SUM OF $5,000 OR 7% OF THE AMOUNT THEN DUE AND OWING, AND FOR SO DOING THIS LEASE OR A COPY HEREOF VERIFIED BY AFFIDAVIT SHALL BE A SUFFICIENT WARRANT.

(ii)         AT ANY TIME AFTER AN EVENT OF DEFAULT HAS OCCURRED, TENANT IRREVOCABLY AUTHORIZES AND EMPOWERS ANY ATTORNEY OR ATTORNEYS OR THE PROTHONOTARY OR CLERK OF ANY OTHER COURT OF JURISDICTION IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA, AS ATTORNEY FOR TENANT AND TENANT’S SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS OR ANY OTHER PERSONS CLAIMING ANY INTEREST UNDER OR THROUGH TENANT, AS WELL AS FOR ALL PERSONS CLAIMING UNDER, BY OR THROUGH TENANT, TO APPEAR FOR TENANT IN AN ACTION OR ACTIONS IN EJECTMENT OR OTHER APPROPRIATE ACTION FOR POSSESSION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES FILED BY LANDLORD OR ANY OWNER OR INTEREST HOLDER OF THE DEMISED PREMISES (WITHOUT THE NECESSITY OF FILING ANY BOND AND WITHOUT ANY STAY OF EXECUTION OR APPEAL) AND IN SUCH ACTION OR ACTIONS TO ADMIT LANDLORD’S SUPERIOR TITLE AND/OR CONFESS JUDGMENT FOR THE RECOVERY BY THE LANDLORD OF POSSESSION OF THE PREMISES, FOR WHICH THIS INSTRUMENT (OR A COPY HEREOF VERIFIED BY AFFIDAVIT OF THE LANDLORD OR ANYONE AUTHORIZED TO MAKE SUCH AFFIDAVIT ON BEHALF OF LANDLORD) SHALL BE A SUFFICIENT WARRANT; WHEREUPON A WRIT OF POSSESSION OR OTHER APPROPRIATE PROCESS TO OBTAIN POSSESSION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES MAY BE ISSUED FORTHWITH, WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WRIT OR PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER, THE TENANT HEREBY RELEASING AND AGREEING TO RELEASE THE LANDLORD AND SAID ATTORNEYS FROM ALL ERRORS AND DEFECTS WHATSOEVER OF A PROCEDURAL NATURE IN ENTERING ANY SUCH ACTION OR JUDGMENT OR IN CAUSING ANY SUCH WRIT OR PROCESS BE ISSUED OR IN ANY PROCEEDING THEREON OR CONCERNING THE SAME, PROVIDED THAT THE LANDLORD SHALL HAVE FILED IN SUCH ACTION AN AFFIDAVIT MADE BY A PERSON ON THE LANDLORD’S BEHALF SETTING FORTH THE FACTS NECESSARY TO AUTHORIZE THE ENTRY OF SUCH JUDGMENT ACCORDING TO THE TERMS OF THIS INSTRUMENT, OF WHICH FACTS SUCH AFFIDAVIT SHALL BE A PRIMA FACIE EVIDENCE.

(iii)        IT IS HEREBY EXPRESSLY AGREED THAT IF FOR ANY REASON AFTER ANY SUCH ACTION UNDER (i) OR (ii) DIRECTLY ABOVE HAS BEEN COMMENCED, THE SAME SHALL BE DISCONTINUED, MARKED SATISFIED OF RECORD OR TERMINATED, OR POSSESSION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES SHALL REMAIN IN OR BE RESTORED TO EITHER TENANT OR ANYONE CLAIMING UNDER, BY OR THROUGH TENANT, THE LANDLORD MAY, WHENEVER AND AS OFTEN AS THE LANDLORD SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO TAKE POSSESSION AGAIN OF THE DEMISED PREMISES, BRING ONE OR MORE FURTHER SUCH ACTIONS IN THE MANNER HEREINABOVE SET FORTH TO OBTAIN A MONEY JUDGMENT AND/OR RECOVER POSSESSION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES AND TO CONFESS JUDGMENT THEREIN AS HEREIN ABOVE PROVIDED, AND THE AUTHORITY AND POWER GIVEN ABOVE TO ANY SUCH ATTORNEY SHALL EXTEND TO ALL SUCH FURTHER ACTIONS.

Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any of the other remedies herein provided or any other remedies provided by law or at equity (all such remedies being cumulative), nor shall pursuit of any remedy herein provided constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any rent due to Landlord hereunder or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of the violation of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained. No act or thing done by Landlord or its agents during the Term shall be deemed a termination of this Lease or an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to terminate this Lease or accept a surrender of said Premises shall be valid unless in writing signed by Landlord. No waiver by Landlord of any violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained shall be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of any other violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained. Landlord’s acceptance of the payment of rental or other payments hereunder after the occurrence of an event of default shall not be construed as an accord and satisfaction, compromise or waiver of such default, unless Landlord so notifies Tenant in writing. Forbearance by Landlord in enforcing one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default or of Landlord’s right to enforce any such remedies with respect to such default or any subsequent default. If, on account of any breach or default by Tenant under the Lease, it becomes necessary or appropriate for Landlord to employ or consult with an attorney concerning or to enforce or defend any of Landlord’s rights or remedies, Tenant agrees to pay all attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord.

Landlord represents and warrants that it has full right and authority to enter into this Lease and that Tenant, while paying the rent and performing its other covenants and agreements herein set forth, shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term without hindrance or molestation from Landlord subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease.

(A)         Landlord agrees to maintain standard fire and extended coverage insurance covering the Building in an amount not less than 90% of the full “replacement cost” thereof (as such term is defined in the Replacement Cost Endorsement to be attached thereto, if any) insuring against the perils of fire and lightning and including extended coverage, and earthquake and flood coverage, or at Landlord’s option, “All Risk” coverage, with earthquake and flood coverage, all such coverages and endorsements to be as defined, provided and limited in the standard bureau forms prescribed by the insurance regulatory authority, for the state in which the property is situated for use by insurance companies admitted in such state for the writing of such insurance on risks located within such state. Subject to the provisions of Sections 24(C), 24(D) and 24(F), such insurance shall be for the sole benefit of Landlord and under its sole control. Such insurance shall include protection for continuation of rental payments for a period of 12 months in the event of any damage caused by the perils referred to above. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, as additional rental, Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Landlord’s cost of maintaining such insurance. Said payments shall be made to Landlord within ten days after presentation to Tenant of Landlord’s statement setting forth the amount due, and the failure to pay such share shall be treated in the same manner as a default in the payment of rent hereunder when due. Any payment to be made pursuant to this Section 24 with respect to the year in which the Lease commences or terminates shall be prorated. Tenant shall not take out separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained by Landlord hereunder unless Landlord is included as an additional insured thereon. Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord whenever any such separate insurance is taken out and shall promptly deliver to Landlord the policy or policies of such insurance.

(B)         If the Building should be damaged or destroyed by fire, tornado or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice thereof to Landlord.

(C)         If the Building should be damaged by any peril covered by the insurance to be provided by Landlord under Section 24(A), but only to such extent that the Building can in Landlord's estimation be materially restored within 180 days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage (except that Landlord may elect not to rebuild if such damage occurs during the last year of the Term), this Lease shall not terminate, and Landlord shall at its sole cost and expense thereupon proceed with reasonable diligence to rebuild and repair such Building to substantially the condition in which it existed prior to such damage, except Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the partitions, fixtures, additions and other improvements which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises by Tenant. If the Premises are untenantable in whole following such damage and provided that Tenant has completely vacated the Premises as a result of such damage, the rent payable hereunder during the period in which the Premises are untenantable shall be abated to such extent as may actually be covered and paid by the insurance coverage discussed in Section 24(A) above. In the event that Landlord should fail to materially restore the Building within 180 days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, Tenant may (if it has given Landlord at least 30 days noticó of its need and intent to do so) at its option terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Landlord as Tenant’s exclusive remedy, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate; provided, however, that if construction is delayed because of changes, deletions, or additions in construction requested by Tenant, strikes, lockouts, casualties, acts of God, war, material or labor shortages, Governmental regulation or control or other causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, the period for restoration, repair or rebuilding shall be extended for the amount of time Landlord is so delayed. For purposes hereof, the Building or Premises shall be deemed “materially restored” if they are in such condition as would not prevent or materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises for the purpose for which it was then being used.

(D)         If the Building should be damaged or destroyed by fire, tornado or other casualty and Landlord is not required to rebuild pursuant to the provisions of Section 24(C), this Lease shall at, the option of Landlord, upon notice to Tenant, given within 30 days after Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, terminate and the rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective upon the date of the occurrence of such damage.

(E)         Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the holder of any indebtedness secured by a mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises or the Building requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Tenant within 15 days after such requirement is made by any such holder, whereupon this Lease shall end on the date of such notice to Tenant as if the date of such notice were the date originally fixed in this Lease for the expiration of the Term.

(F)         In the event of any damage or destruction to the Premises by any peril covered by the provisions of this Section, Tenant shall, upon notice from Landlord, forthwith remove, at its sole cost and expense, such portion or all of Tenant’s shelves, bins; machinery and other trade fixtures and all other property belonging to Tenant or his licensees from such portion or all of the Premises as Landlord shall request and Tenant hereby indemnities and holds Landlord (including without limitation the trustee and beneficiaries if Landlord is a trust), Landlord’s agents and employees harmless from any loss, liability, claims, suits, costs, expenses, including attorney’s fees and damages, both real and alleged, arising out of any damage or injury as a result of the failure to properly secure the Premises prior to such removal and/or as a result of such removal.

If the whole of the Premises hereby leased shall be taken by any public authority under the power of eminent domain, then the term of this Lease shall cease as of the day possession is taken by such public authority and all rentals shall be paid up to the date. If only a part of the Premises shall be taken under eminent domain, the Lease shall terminate as to the portion taken, and unless this Lease shall be terminated, as herein provided, it shall continue in full force and effect as to the remainder of the Premises and the minimum rent shall be reduced in the proportion the square footage taken bears to the total square footage demised. If more than fifty percent (50%) of the total square footage of the Premises is taken under power of eminent domain, either party, by written notice to the other delivered on or before the date of surrendering possession to the public authority, may terminate this Lease, effective as of such surrender of possession. All compensation and damages of any type whatsoever awarded for any taking, whole or partial, shall belong to and be the property of the Landlord except as hereinafter provided.

In event of a sale or conveyance by Landlord of the Building, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any future liability upon any of the covenants or conditions, expressed or implied, herein contained in favor of Tenant, and in such event Tenant agrees to look solely to the responsibility of the successor in interest of Landlord in and to this Lease. Except as set forth in this Lease, this Lease shall not be affected by any such sale, and Tenant agrees to attorn to the purchaser or assignee. If any security has been given by Tenant to, secure the faithful performance of any of the covenants of this Lease, Landlord may transfer or deliver said security, as such, to Landlord’s successor in interest and, if Landlord delivers said security to Landlord’s successor in interest, Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with regard to said security.

Within ten (10) days following any written request which Landlord may make from time to time, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord or any prospective Landlord or mortgagee or prospective mortgagee a sworn statement certifying: (a) the date of commencement of this Lease; (b) the fact that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications hereto, that this Lease is in full force and effect, as modified, and stating the date and nature of such modifications); (c) the date to which the rent and other sums payable under this Lease have been paid; (d) the fact that there are no current defaults under this Lease by either Landlord or Tenant except as specified in Tenant’s statement; and (e) such other matters requested by Landlord. Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary or purchaser and Tenant shall be liable for all loss, cost or expense resulting from the failure of any sale or funding of any loan caused by any material misstatement contained in such estoppel certificate. Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord or if Landlord is a trust, Landlord’s beneficiary or agent, as attorney-in-fact for the Tenant with full power and authority to execute and deliver in the name of Tenant such estoppel certificate if Tenant fails to deliver the same within such ten-day period and such certificate as signed by Landlord, Landlord’s beneficiary or agent, as the case may be, shall be fully binding on Tenant, if Tenant fails to deliver a contrary certificate within five days after receipt by Tenant of a copy of the certificate executed by Landlord, Landlord’s beneficiary or agent, as the case may be, on behalf of Tenant.

Tenant shall, at least ninety (90) days before the last day of the Term, arrange to meet Landlord for a joint inspection of the Premises. In the event of Tenant’s failure to arrange such joint inspection, Landlord’s inspection at or after Tenant’s vacating the Premises shall be conclusively deemed correct for purposes of determining Tenant’s responsibility for repairs and restoration.

At the end of the Term or any renewal thereof or other sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant will peaceably deliver up to Landlord possession of the Premises, together with all improvements or additions upon or belonging to the same, by whomsoever made, in the same condition as received or first installed broom clean and free of all debris, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire, earthquake, Act of God, or the elements alone excepted. Tenant may, upon termination of this Lease, remove, to the extent purchased and installed by Tenant and removable without material damage to such property or the Premises: all movable partitions of less than full height from floor to ceiling; counters; and other personal property of Tenant. All such removal shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and Tenant shall fully repair any damage caused by such removal. Property not so removed shall be deemed abandoned by the Tenant and title to the same shall thereupon pass to Landlord under this Lease as by a bill of sale. Tenant shall complete all work as required by Section 7 above, including without limitation, all Landlord’s conditions or requirements issued in conjunction with Landlord’s consent to any alterations, improvements or repairs. Upon request by Landlord, Tenant shall remove, at its sole cost and expense, any or all permanent improvements or additions to the Premises installed by Tenant and all movable partitions, counters and other personal property of Tenant and Tenant shall repair any damage resulting from such removal. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against any loss or liability resulting from delay by Tenant in so surrendering the Premises, including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded on such delay.

All obligations of Tenant hereunder not fully performed as of the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount, as estimated by Landlord, necessary: (i) to repair and restore the Premises as provided herein; and (ii) to discharge Tenant’s obligation for unpaid amounts due Landlord. All such amounts shall be used and held by Landlord for payment of such obligations of Tenant, with Tenant being liable for any additional costs upon demand by Landlord, or with any excess to be returned to Tenant after all such obligations have been determined and satisfied. Any Security Deposit shall be credited against the amount payable by Tenant hereunder.

Any notice or document required or permitted to be given or delivered to a party hereunder shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery to such party if personally delivered to such party or three (3) days after mailing if mailed by United States Mail, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and all postage and certified or registered mail fees pre-paid, and addressed to the party for whom intended at such party’s address set forth below and with a copy sent as specified below, or at such other address as such party shall have theretofore specified by written notice delivered in accordance herewith.

In addition to rent and other charges to be paid by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall reimburse to Landlord, upon demand, any and all taxes payable by Landlord (other than net income taxes) whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of the parties hereto: (a) upon, allocable to, or measured by or on the gross or net rent payable hereunder, including without limitation any gross income tax, sales tax or excise tax levied by the State, any political subdivision thereof, or the Federal Government with respect to the receipt of such rent; or (b) upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy of the Premises or any portion thereof, including any sales, use or service tax imposed as a result thereof; or (c) upon or measured by the Tenant’s gross receipt or payroll or the value of Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures, and other personal property of Tenant or leasehold improvements, alterations, additions, located in the Premises; or (d) upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.

In addition to the foregoing, Tenant agrees to pay, before delinquency, any and all taxes levied or assessed against Tenant and which become payable during the term hereof upon Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures, and other personal property of Tenant located in the Premises.

The section headings herein are for convenience of reference and shall in no way define, increase, limit, or describe the scope or intent of any provision of this Lease. Any indemnification of, insurance of, or option, granted to Landlord shall also include or be exercisable by Landlord’s trustee, beneficiary, agents and employees, as the case may be. In any case, where this Lease is signed by more than one person, the obligations hereunder shall be joint and several. The terms “Tenant” and “Landlord” or any pronoun used in place thereof shall indicate and include the masculine or feminine, the singular or plural number, individuals, marital communities, firms, or corporations, and their and each of their respective successors, executors, administrators, and permitted assigns, according to the context hereof. Tenant agrees to furnish promptly upon demand a corporate resolution, proof of due authorization by partners, or other appropriate documentation evidencing the due authorization of Tenant to enter into this Lease. The term “rentable area” shall mean the rentable area of the Premises or the Building as calculated by the Landlord on the basis of the plans and specifications (which were available for inspection by Tenant at the time the Lease was executed) of the Building and including a proportionate share of any common areas. Tenant hereby consents and agrees that the calculation of rentable area on the Reference Page shall be controlling.

If for any reason whatsoever any of the provisions hereof shall be void, unenforceable or ineffective, all of the other provisions shall be and remain in full force and effect.

Each of Landlord and Tenant (i) represents and warrants to the other that it has not dealt with any broker or finder in connection with this Lease, except as described on the Reference Page; and (ii) indemnities and holds the other harmless from any and all losses, liability, costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred as a result of any breach of the foregoing warranty.

Time is of the essence of this Lease and all of its provisions. This Lease shall in all respects be governed by the laws of the state in which the Building is located.

Tenant shall have sole and exclusive use of the “Tenant's Parking Area”, as shown on Exhibit A. Tenant shall not at any time park or permit the parking of Tenant’s vehicles, or the vehicles of others, adjacent to loading areas or so as to interfere in any way with the use of such areas or in parking areas assigned to other tenants. Tenant shall not park or permit to be parked any inoperative vehicles or equipment on any portion of the parking or loading areas. Tenant shall be solely responsible for all maintenance, repair, snow and ice removal, lighting and security for the Tenant’s Parking Area and for any areas which Tenant rightfully uses for access to the Tenant's Parking Area.

Subject to the provisions of Section 12 hereof, the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, executors, administrators, marital communities, if any, and assigns of the parties hereto.

This Lease, together with its exhibits, contains all agreements of the parties hereto and supersedes any previous negotiations. There have been no representations made by the Landlord or understandings made between the parties other than those set forth in this Lease and its exhibits. This Lease may not be modified except by a written instrument duly executed by the parties hereto.

Submission of this Lease shall not be deemed to be a reservation of the Premises. Landlord shall not be bound hereby until its delivery to Tenant of an executed copy hereof signed by Landlord, already having been signed by Tenant and Assignor, and until such delivery Landlord reserves the right to exhibit and lease the Premises to other prospective tenants. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Landlord may withhold delivery of possession of the Premises from Tenant until such time as Tenant has paid to Landlord the Security Deposit and the first month’s rent as set forth in Section 4 and any other sum owed pursuant hereto.

Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Lease or a short form memorandum hereof without the prior written consent of the other party, and the party offering the same for recording shall pay all charges and taxes incident thereto.

Tenant shall look solely to the Premises and rents derived therefrom for enforcement of any obligation hereunder or by law assumed or enforceable against Landlord, and no other property or other assets of Landlord shall be subjected to levy, execution or other enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies or with respect to this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant hereunder, or Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises.
