(b) Subtenants Pro Rata Share of (i) Operating Expenses and (ii) Real Property Taxes, as estimated by the Manager of the Building in accordance with subparagraph 5.3 below. For purposes of this Sublease, the terms " Operating Expenses" and "Real Property Expenses" shall have the same meanings as in the Prime Lease.
(c) The cost of electricity consumed by Subtenant in the Subleased Premises. The Subleased Premises will be separately metered at Subtenants sole expense, and Sublandlord will cause Prime Landlord (in accordance with Article 9.4 of the Prime Lease as applied to the Subleased Premises only) to bill Subtenant directly based upon such metered usage at the Buildings high tension rate without any mark-up, which rate shall be at the most competitive rate Prime Landlord is able to reasonably negotiate.
(d) Any costs or expenses for goods, services or utilities in excess of those to which Sublandlord is entitled to require from Prime Landlord pursuant to the Prime Lease, including, without limitation, after-hours HVAC, replacement lamps and ballasts within the Subleased Premises, and use of the freight elevator (outside of Normal Working Hours, excluding Saturday), which are (i) directly attributable to Subtenants use or occupancy of the Subleased Premises, and (ii) not otherwise included in Operating Expenses.
(e) Any sums which Subtenant becomes obligated to pay pursuant to this Sublease, including, without limitation, reimbursement to Sublandlord for any amounts advanced by Sublandlord as a result of Subtenants failure to comply with any of the terms and conditions of this Sublease and of the Consent, in accordance with the terms thereof.
(f) Subtenants Pro Rata Share of the City of Philadelphia Business Use and Occupancy Tax applicable to Subtenants use and occupancy of the Subleased Premises, which Subtenant shall pay to Prime Landlord and which Prime Landlord shall forward to the Department of Revenue of the City of Philadelphia.
(g) Taxes, if any, imposed upon or attributable to Subtenants personal property located in or about the Subleased Premises or any leasehold improvements (including Subtenant Improvements and Alterations) installed in the Subleased Premises.
Rent due under subparagraph (c), (d), (e), (f), if any, and (g), if any, shall accrue from the date Sublandlord delivers possession, even if Rent due under subparagraphs (a) and (b) is deferred to a later date pursuant to Article 3.
5.2 Time and Place for Payment
Rent due under paragraphs 5.l(a) and 5.1(b) above shall be payable in advance on the first day of each calendar month without prior notice or demand, by check payable to Sublandlord. On or about the 20th day of each calendar month, Sublandlord, through the Manager or another agent selected by Sublandlord, will deliver an invoice to Subtenant for Rent due under subparagraphs 5.l(a) and (b) as of the first day of the next following calendar month; however, failure to deliver an invoice will not excuse Subtenants obligations to pay such Rent when due. Invoices shall be sent or delivered to the Subleased Premises, to the attention of the Vice President of Facilities Management. All other sums due from Subtenant, including sums due under paragraphs 5.l(c), 5.1(d), 5.1(e), 5.1(f) and 5.1(g) above, shall be due and payable, within twenty (20) days of Subtenants receipt of appropriate invoices, to the party directed on the invoice. All Rent shall be payable in United States dollars without deduction or offset of any kind. Rent for any partial calendar month during the Term shall be prorated on a per diem basis.
5.3 Rental Adjustment for Operating Costs
(a) Estimated Operating Costs. On the first day of each month through the end of the Term, Subtenant shall pay to the Sublandlord as additional Rent in accordance with the terms of Article 5.l(b) hereof, monthly installments equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of "Subtenants Pro Rata Share of Operating Costs" (defined as the product of (i) the total amount of Operating Costs multiplied by (ii) a fraction ("Subtenants Pro Rata Share"), the numerator of which is the number of square feet of Rentable Area in the Subleased Premises and the denominator of which is the total number of square feet of Rentable Area of office space in the Building), which will be calculated and invoiced on a per rentable square foot basis. Subtenants Pro Rata Share is initially 12.665% based on the initial Subleased Premises, but is subject to adjustment for any additional space subsequently subleased by Subtenant or any reduction in the space subleased by Subtenant. Subtenant shall pay the monthly installments of Subtenants Pro Rata Share of Operating Costs based upon Prime Landlords estimate of the amount of Operating Costs for the forthcoming calendar year (the "Estimated Operating Costs"). Commencing for calendar year 2000, within ten (10) days after Sublandlords receipt of same from Prime Landlord, Sublandlord shall provide Subtenant with a copy of the written statement (the " Estimated Operating Cost Statement") prepared by Prime Landlord for each calendar year setting forth the Estimated Operating Costs that Prime Landlord anticipates incurring during the forthcoming calendar year; provided, however, that the failure of Prime Landlord or Sublandlord to provide any Estimated Operating Cost Statement shall not relieve Subtenant from its obligation to pay such monthly installments on account of Subtenants Pro Rata Share of Operating Costs at the rate then currently paid by Subtenant. So long as the Prime Lease remains in effect, the Operating Costs per square foot of Rentable Area of the Building, as determined under the Prime Lease for each calendar year, shall be the Operating Costs per square foot of Rentable Area for purposes of this sublease for each such calendar year.
(b) Final Adjustments. Within 150 days following the end of calendar year 2000 and each succeeding calendar year thereafter, Sublandlord shall, within ten (10) days after receipt thereof from Prime Landlord, furnish to Subtenant a copy of Prime Landlords actual Operating Costs incurred during the prior calendar year, and a calculation of the final amount of Subtenants Pro Rata Share of the Operating Costs for such prior year ("Operating Cost Statement"). Within thirty (30) days following the receipt of each Operating Cost Statement, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord (or Sublandlord shall credit to Subtenant) any deficiency (or excess) between the installments paid on account of Subtenants Pro Rata Share of Operating Costs based on the preceding years Estimated Operating Costs and the actual amount of Subtenants Pro Rata Share of Operating Costs for such calendar year. For any portion of the Term as to any of the Subleased Premises that is less than a full calendar year, the actual amount of Subtenants Pro Rata Share of Operating Costs with respect to such portion of the Subleased Premises will be pro-rated on a per them basis based on the number of days of the Term in the relevant calendar year.
(c) Audit Procedure. Sublandlord shall cause Prime Landlord to permit Subtenant, at its expense, at all reasonable times to audit Prime Landlords books and records relating to items affecting Operating Costs for any period for which Rent payments become due; provided that Subtenants right to audit shall expire one (1) year after Prime Landlord has furnished to Sublandlord an audited statement of Operating Costs for the applicable year during the Term of this Sublease (which Sublandlord shall forward to Subtenant) if Subtenant has not then notified Prime Landlord in writing of Subtenants election to conduct an audit. All audits shall be performed by an independent firm of certified public accountants compensated at a cost not to exceed the cost that would be charged on an hourly basis by a "Big 5" accounting firm unrelated to Subtenant (but in no event on a contingent basis).
(1) If Subtenant has timely exercised its option to conduct an audit, Subtenant shall have a period of ninety (90) days in which to complete the audit, which ninety (90) day period shall commence after Prime Landlord has afforded Subtenant full access to such documents regarding Subleased Premises as are in Prime Landlords possession or control and which are necessary to conduct the audit including, without limitation (to the extent within Prime Landlords possession or control), work papers prepared by Prime Landlords certified public accountants, canceled checks, invoices, and such other documents as may be reasonably required. Subtenant shall have the right to receive the documentation described above for any year during the Term of the Sublease including the year preceding the Rent Commencement Date in order to have a basis for comparison of Operating Costs.
(2) In the event that it is ultimately determined that (1) the Operating Costs billed by Prime Landlord exceeded the actual Operating Costs by at least three percent (3%) of the actual Operating Costs for such year and (ii) Subtenant has not previously conducted an audit two (2) years preceding the year for which the audit is being conducted, Subtenant shall have the right to audit Operating Costs for such two (2) years to determine whether refunds are due for such two (2) prior years, and, in addition thereto, Prime Landlord shall reimburse Subtenant for its reasonable costs of such audit; provided, however, that (1) if the Operating Costs billed by Prime Landlord do not exceed the actual Operating Costs for such year by three percent (3%) or more, then Subtenant shall reimburse Prime Landlord for its reasonable costs of such audit; and (2) Subtenant shall not be entitled to recover any of its costs of such audit if Sublandlord performed or was performing its own audit of the Operating Costs for the same time period and if Sublandlords auditor determined that the Operating Costs billed by Prime Landlord exceeded the actual Operating Costs by at least three percent (3% )of the actual Operating Costs for such year.
(3) Sublandlord shall cooperate, and shall cause Prime Landlord to cooperate with Subtenant to facilitate the performance of Subtenants audit. Subtenant may review such documentation during normal business hours at the Managers office at the Property. Subtenant agrees to conduct the audit in a manner which will cause minimum disruption to the operation of the Prime Landlord and the management office of the Building.
(4) Subtenant agrees, for the benefit of Prime Landlord and Sublandlord, to keep and maintain all information gained from its inspection of Prime Landlords records confidential and Subtenant agrees that Subtenant and its auditors, employees or agents shall not disclose it to any other party, except as required by law and except to Subtenants attorneys, accountants and advisors involved in such review who agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information, or except as necessary in any action or arbitration proceeding involving the accuracy of the Operating Costs. If requested by Prime Landlord, Subtenant shall require its employees, attorneys, accountants or agents inspecting Prime Landlords records to sign a confidentiality agreement (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Subtenant) in favor of Prime Landlord as a condition of making the general ledger available to them.
(5) Subtenants exercise of its inspection and audit rights hereunder does not relieve Subtenant of its obligation to pay all Rent, including all disputed amounts, and Subtenants inspection and audit right under this Article may only be exercised by Subtenant if Subtenant is not in an Event of Default under this Lease during the period that Subtenant is exercising its rights hereunder.
(6) Except as herein above specifically provided otherwise, if Subtenant fails timely to exercise its rights hereunder, such failure shall be conclusively deemed to constitute Subtenants approval of Prime Landlords Operating Cost Statement for the year in question. This Article shall not be construed to allow any inspection or audit of Prime Landlords records by any subtenant of Subtenant unless Prime Landlord agrees otherwise, in its sole discretion, in any recognition agreement entered into between Prime Landlord and such subtenant. This Article shall be the sole and exclusive method to be used by Subtenant to dispute the amount of Operating Costs and Subtenant hereby waives any other right at law or in equity relating thereto.
(7) In the event that it is ultimately determined (by agreement of the parties or by a final court determination) that the actual Operating Costs for any year, as defined and chargeable to Subtenant under this Sublease, is less than the amount set forth in the Operating Cost Statement submitted by Prime Landlord for such year, then Sublandlord shall credit such excess payments against Subtenants next monthly payment due in accordance with the terms of this Sublease, once received from Prime Landlord, or, if this Sublease has expired, Prime Landlord shall promptly refund such excess payment to Sublandlord and Sublandlord shall refund such amount to Subtenant.
(8) Subtenants audit and reimbursement rights shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease for a period of six (6) months after delivery of the Operating Cost Statement for the final calendar year during the Term.
(9) Notwithstanding anything else herein contained, Subtenant may not audit Prime Landlords records with respect to any period audited or made the subject of arbitration by Sublandlord. Sublandlord will not audit or arbitrate regarding Prime Landlords records for any period without first obtaining Subtenants prior consent which will not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (with respect to the Subleased Premises only). The parties intend by this paragraph to confirm that Prime Landlord shall be subject only to one audit with respect to the Subleased Premises for each calendar year.
6. Abatement for Failure of Building Systems
If the Subleased Premises or any portion thereof are rendered untenantable and are not used by Subtenant for a period of five (5) consecutive, or twelve (12) or more, business days in any twelve (12) month period (the "Eligibility Period ") as a result of failure of any Building System not caused by the negligent or willful acts or omissions of Subtenant or by a Force Majeure Event, Subtenants Rent shall be reduced and abated to the extent and in the same manner as provided in Article 9.3(a) of the Prime Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any Rent abatement period under this Sublease, Subtenant shall pay Sublandlord as rent all normal charges for services and utilities (if any) provided to and used by Subtenant during the period of the Rent abatement.
7. Subtenant Improvements; Allowance
7.1 Subtenant Improvements
Subtenant shall be entitled to make Subtenant Improvements to the Subleased Premises prior to the Rent Commencement Dates, in accordance with, and subject to (a) the terms and conditions of the Subtenant Improvement Letter attached hereto as Exhibit "E," and hereby made a part hereof, and (b) the terms of the Consent.
7.2 Allowance
Subject to the terms and provisions of Exhibit "E," Sublandlord shall make available to Subtenant an amount not to exceed the product of (a) $25.00 (except for space on floors Pl and 2, as to which Sublandlord will make available $10.00) and (b) the Rentable Area acquired by Subtenant at each respective Sublease Commencement Date in accordance with the Rentable Square Footage of each floor as set forth in Article 3 or Article 33 hereof (the "Allowance").
If the Allowance is insufficient to defray the entire cost of the Subtenant Improvements, the balance shall be paid entirely by Subtenant. Sublandlord has no obligation to advance more than the amount of the Allowance for such items under any circumstances. Prime Landlord has no obligation to advance any money for Subtenant Improvements.
8. Utilities and Services
8.1 Sublandlord Obligations

Subtenant shall not use any equipment or lighting or occupy the Subleased Premises with personnel so that heat generated by such use or occupancy affects the ambient temperature otherwise maintained in the Subleased Premises by the HVAC system in normal operation. In the event such use or occupancy affects the ambient temperature, Sublandlord or Prime Landlord shall have the right to install any machinery or equipment which Prime Landlord reasonably deems necessary to restore temperature balance, including, without limitation, modifications to the standard air conditioning equipment, and the cost thereof including the cost of installation and any additional cost of operation and maintenance incurred thereby, shall be paid by Subtenant to Prime Landlord upon demand by Prime Landlord. Sublandlord makes no representation with respect to the adequacy or fitness of the HVAC equipment in the Building to maintain temperatures which may be required for, or because of, any special equipment of Subtenant, and neither Sublandlord nor Prime Landlord shall have any liability for loss or damage in connection therewith.
(b) Electricity. Electric current for HVAC and an average of five (5) watts of electric current (connected load) per square foot of Rentable Area for power and lighting. Subtenant shall not install or operate any machinery, appliances or equipment in the Subleased Premises which will in any way increase the amount of electricity usually furnished or supplied for use of the Subleased Premises as general office space; nor connect any apparatus, device, machinery, appliances or equipment (except through existing electrical outlets in the Subleased Premises), for the purpose of using electric current. Sublandlord shall cause Prime Landlord to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the best electrical rate from competing suppliers selected by Prime Landlord.
(c) Elevators. (i) Passenger elevator service to the Subleased Premises during Normal Working Hours and freight elevator service to the Subleased Premises during Normal Working Hours, excluding Saturdays, and (ii) during all other hours, passenger elevator cab service in any elevator bank serving the Subleased Premises on an as needed basis, and, by prior arrangement with the Manager (and at Subtenants sole cost), freight elevator service.

(e) Janitorial. Janitorial service in accordance with the specifications attached hereto as Exhibit "G" and made a part hereof. Sublandlord shall not be required to cause Prime Landlord to provide more than Building standard janitorial services for portions of the Subleased Premises used for storage, mail room, kitchen or other non-office purposes, nor shall Sublandlord be required to cause Prime Landlord to provide janitorial services to areas obstructed or locked by Subtenant, or used as a lavatory, other than the lavatory rooms shown on the Subtenants Plans of the Subleased Premises as provided for in Exhibit "E" attached hereto and made a part hereof.
(f) Access. Access to the Subleased Premises and the Garage on a seven-day per week, 24-hour per day basis, subject to compliance with such reasonable security measures and reasonable rules and regulations as shall from time-to-time be in effect for the Building and/or the Property.
8.2 Extraordinary Services
Subtenant understands that the Manager, acting for Sublandlord and/or Prime Landlord, may impose a reasonable direct charge and establish reasonable rules and regulations for any of the following: (a) the use of any electric current required by Subtenant, at its request, for operation of common areas by Subtenant at any time other than during Normal Working Hours; (b) the use of any HVAC by Subtenant at any time other than during Normal Working hours; (c) additional or unusual janitorial services requested by Subtenant or required because of any non-building standard improvements in the Subleased Premises, the carelessness of Subtenant, the nature of Subtenants business (including the operation of Subtenants business other than during Normal Working Hours); (d) the removal of any refuse and rubbish from the Subleased Premises except for discarded material placed in wastepaper baskets and left for emptying as an incident to normal cleaning of the Subleased Premises; and (e) any other services provided to Subtenant at any time other than during Normal Working Hours. Failure to make any such payment to Prime Landlord when due shall give Prime Landlord the right to refuse to provide further services to the Subleased Premises, in addition to the right to litigate with Subtenant directly to recover such unpaid amounts.
8.3 Telephone
Subtenant shall make its own arrangements for telephone and/or communication services, and Sublandlord shall have no liability or obligation in connection therewith other than to cause Prime Landlord to provide reasonable access to the Building telephone closets. Sublandlord shall retain the right to use and access the existing telephone riser closets and telephone risers on the floors of the Subleased Premises during the balance of the Term of the Prime Lease and Sublandlord and Subtenant shall share such telephone riser closets during such period, subject to reasonable mutually acceptable access and security arrangements. Subtenant shall be released from any liability to Sublandlord for cutting any voice or data lines within the risers or telephone closets or above the ceilings in the Subleased Premises that are not marked by Sublandlord as being active lines.
8.4 Interruption in Utility Service
Neither Sublandlord nor Prime Landlord shall be liable for damages or otherwise for failure, stoppage or interruption of any services or utilities or unavailability of access to the Property, nor shall the same be construed either as an eviction of Subtenant, or result in an abatement of Rent when such failure is caused by acts of God, accidents, breakage, repairs, strikes, lockouts, other labor disputes, other Force Majeure Events, or by the making of repairs, alterations or improvements to the Subleased Premises or the Building, or the limitation, curtailment, rationing or restriction in supply of fuel, steam, water, electricity, labor or other supplies or for any other condition beyond Sublandlords and Prime Landlords reasonable control, including, without limitation, any governmental energy conservation program or legal requirement. If any governmental entity imposes mandatory or voluntary controls or guidelines on Sublandlord or Prime Landlord or the Property or any part thereof, relating to the services provided by Sublandlord to Subtenant or the reduction of emissions, Prime Landlord may make such alterations to the Building or any other part of the Property related thereto and take such other steps as are necessary to comply with such controls and guidelines, the cost of such compliance and alterations shall be included in Operating Expenses and neither Sublandlord nor Prime Landlord shall be liable therefor, for damages or otherwise, nor shall the same be construed as an eviction of Subtenant or result in an abatement of Rent. Nothing contained in this Article shall be construed to limit Subtenants rights under Article 6.
9. Alterations
9.1 Alterations Requiring Consent
Except for any Subtenant Improvements specifically permitted by this Sublease, Subtenant shall make no alteration, repair, addition or improvement in, to or about the Subleased Premises (collectively, "Alterations"), without the prior written consent of Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned. The prior written consent of Sublandlord or Prime Landlord shall be granted if (i) all such Alterations are consistent with the character of a Class A high-rise office building and are consistent with the permitted use set forth in Article 4 hereof, and (ii) such Alterations would be permitted or consented to by Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease. However, without the prior consent of Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, Subtenant shall have the right to install (i) Alterations that are purely decorative (i.e., paint, carpet, non-built-in shelving, filing systems, work stations, and similar trade fixtures and furniture) and (ii) non-structural Alterations which do not cost in excess of $100,000 in the aggregate and which do not adversely affect the function or integrity of Building Systems in the Building or Subleased Premises, provided, in each instance Subtenant shall give prior notice of its intention to make such Alterations to Prime Landlord and Sublandlord, such notice to include the scope and proposed schedule of work. Subtenant shall not be required to remove the foregoing permitted Alterations upon the expiration of Subtenants right to possession of the Subleased Premises.
9.2 Removal of Alterations
All Alterations and all Subtenant Improvements, which are attached to, or built into, the Subleased Premises, shall become the property of Prime Landlord when Subtenants right to possession of the Subleased Premises expires. Subject to paragraph 9.1 above, Subtenant may be required to remove specific Alterations or Subtenant Improvements, if, but only if (i) Sublandlord or Prime Landlord has specified in writing at the time of approval of the relevant plans and/or specifications that such Alterations or Subtenant Improvements must be removed at the expiration of Subtenants right to possession of the Subleased Premises or (ii) as to any Alterations for which no plans or specifications were submitted to Sublandlord or Prime Landlord for approval, the items in question are not generally found in a first-class office building. Subtenant will repair of any damage to the Subleased Premises, the Building and any other part of the Property caused by such removal, all at Subtenants sole expense and to the reasonable satisfaction of Prime Landlord.
9.3 Trade Fixtures
Without the prior consent of Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, Subtenant shall have the right to install trade fixtures, machinery and equipment required by Subtenant or used by it in its business, provided that same do not exceed applicable safe floor loads or otherwise impair the structural strength of the Building and further provided that such trade fixtures, machinery and equipment shall be limited to items customary to the permitted use of the Subleased Premises as set forth in Article 4 hereof. Except to the extent (if any) paid for by Sublandlord, in cash or by way of any credit or allowance provided hereunder, such trade fixtures, machinery and equipment shall be and remain Subtenants personal property and shall be removed by Subtenant upon expiration of its right to possession of the Subleased Premises. Subtenant shall repair and restore any damage to the Subleased Premises and Building caused by such installation or removal.
10. Maintenance and Repairs
10.1 Subtenants Obligations
Subtenant shall, at Subtenants sole expense, keep the Subleased Premises and every part thereof clean and in good condition and repair, except for ordinary wear and tear, damage caused by Casualty and Sublandlords and/or Prime Landlord s obligations specifically set forth in this Sublease.
10.2 Sublandlords Obligations
Subject to Article 12, Sublandlord shall cause Prime Landlord to repair and maintain with reasonable diligence after notice thereof from Subtenant, defects in, and damage to, the Building structure and the Building Systems installed by Prime Landlord and Sublandlord and serving or located on the Subleased Premises. If such maintenance and repair is required by the act, neglect, misuse, fault or omission of any duty of Subtenant, its agents, employees, contractors, licensees or invitees, Subtenant shall pay the out of pocket cost of such maintenance and repairs.
11. Insurance; Waiver of Subrogation
11.1 Types of Insurance
Subtenant shall at all times during the Term (and prior to the Term with respect to any activity of Subtenant in the Building) and at its own cost and expense procure and continue in force insurance as follows:
(a) Liability Insurance. Workers compensation insurance, employers liability insurance and commercial general liability insurance and, if necessary, commercial umbrella or excess liability insurance adequate to protect Subtenant, Sublandlord, and Prime Landlord against liability for injury to or death of any person or damage to property in connection with the use, operation or condition of the Subleased Premises. The limits of liability under the workers compensation policy shall be at least equal to the statutory requirements therefor, and the limits of liability under the employers liability policy shall be at least $2,000,000.00. The commercial general liability policy shall be in an amount not less than $3,000,000.00 per occurrence and $5,000,000.00 in the aggregate. Not more frequently than once each three years, if, in the opinion of Prime Landlords mortgagee or of the independent insurance broker retained by Prime Landlord, the amount of employers liability or commercial general liability coverage in place at that time is not adequate, Subtenant shall increase the insurance coverage as reasonably required by Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, provided, however, such increases shall not exceed commercially reasonable insurance coverages carried by tenants leasing similar Center City Philadelphia class A high-rise office space.
(b) Property Insurance. Insurance covering all leasehold improvements (including, but not limited to, all Subtenant Improvements and Alterations) trade fixtures, merchandise and other personal property from time to time in, on or upon the Subleased Premises, in an amount not less than 100% of their full replacement cost from time to time during the Term, providing protection against any peril included within the classification "All Risks Coverage," together with insurance against sprinkler water damage, vandalism and malicious mischief. The proceeds of such insurance shall be used for the repair or replacement of the property so insured. Upon termination of this Sublease due to any Casualty, the proceeds of such insurance shall be paid to Prime Landlord, Sublandlord and Subtenant, as their interests appear in the insured property. The full replacement value of the items to be insured under this paragraph shall be determined by Subtenant and acknowledged by the company issuing the insurance policy by the issuance of an agreed amount endorsement at the time the policy is initially obtained, and shall be increased from time to time if and to the extent necessary to maintain full replacement value coverage.
(c) Business Interruption Insurance. Loss of income or business interruption insurance in such amounts as will reimburse Subtenant for direct and indirect loss of earnings attributable to all perils commonly insured against by prudent tenants or attributable to prevention of access to the Subleased Premises or to the Building as a result of such perils.
11.2 Policy Requirements
(a) All insurance required to be carried by Subtenant hereunder shall be issued by responsible insurance companies, qualified to do business in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord and Prime Landlord. Insurance companies rated A VII or better by Bests Insurance Reports shall be deemed acceptable.
(b) Each policy shall be written on an "occurrence" basis and shall have a deductible or deductibles, if any, which do not exceed the lesser of (i) $250,000.00 or (ii) the deductible amount(s) generally maintained by similarly situated tenants in class A, high-rise office buildings in the Central Business District of Center City Philadelphia. Each policy, except workers compensation, shall name Sublandlord, Prime Landlord, Manager, and Prime Landlords lender and their respective members, managers, partners, officers, directors, agents and employees as additional insureds, as their interests may appear. Certificates and additional insured endorsements evidencing the existence and amounts of such insurance shall be delivered to Sublandlord and Prime Landlord by Subtenant at least thirty (30) days prior to Subtenants occupancy of any portion of the Subleased Premises, and in any event, prior to any activity of Subtenant in the Building. In addition, Subtenant, upon reasonable written request from Prime Landlord or Sublandlord, will make reasonable efforts to furnish copies of original policies to Prime Landlord or Sublandlord, as the use may be. No such policy shall be cancelable except after thirty (30) days written notice to Sublandlord and Prime Landlord. Subtenant shall provide Sublandlord with originals of the endorsements to Subtenants commercial general liability insurance and all risk property insurance policies which include the following exact wording:
It is agreed that New York Central Lines LLC, Philadelphia Plaza-Phase II, Thomas Properties Group, LLC, Thomas Development Partners L.P., Bank of America, N.T. and S.A., Trustee, and their respective members, managers, partners, officers, directors, affiliates, agents and employees are additional insureds. The coverage under this policy is primary insurance with respect to liability arising out of the ownership, maintenance or use of the premises leased to Subtenant.
Such endorsements shall be separate from certificates of insurance. It is not acceptable to have the above-referenced language typed or written on the certificate of insurance in lieu of providing Sublandlord and Prime Landlord with the required endorsements. Each certificate of insurance and endorsements required hereunder shall have an original signature. Subtenant shall, prior to the expiration of any such policy, furnish Sublandlord with renewal certificates and endorsements thereof. Should Subtenant at any time neglect or refuse to provide the insurance required by this Sublease, or should such insurance be canceled, Sublandlord shall have the right, but not the duty, to procure the same and Subtenant shall pay the cost thereof as rent promptly upon Sublandlords demand. Subtenant will deliver certificates with respect to its policies and endorsements to Sublandlord and/or Prime Landlord within twenty (20) days after Sublandlords written request therefor.
(c) With respect to the Subleased Premises, the policies of insurance required to be carried by Subtenant pursuant to this Sublease shall be primary and non-contributing with, and not in excess of any other insurance available to Sublandlord. The cost of defending any claims made against any of the policies required to be carried by Subtenant shall not be included in any of the limits of liability for such policies. Subtenant shall immediately report to Sublandlord, and promptly thereafter confirm in writing, the occurrence of any injury, loss or damage incurred by Subtenant, or Subtenants receipt of notice or knowledge of any claim by a third party or any occurrence that might give rise to such claims. It shall be the responsibility of Subtenant not to violate nor knowingly permit to be violated any condition of the policies required by this Sublease.
(d) If any of the liability insurance policies required to be maintained by Subtenant pursuant to this Article contains aggregate limits which apply to operations of Subtenant other than those operations which are the subject of this Sublease, and such limits are diminished by more than $200,000.00 after any one or more incidents, occurrences, claims, settlements, or judgments against such insurance, Subtenant shall take immediate steps to restore aggregate limits or shall maintain other insurance protection for such aggregate limits. Any policy of property insurance required hereunder may be in "blanket coverage" form, provided any such "blanket coverage" policy (i) specifically provides that the amount of insurance coverage required hereunder shall in no way be prejudiced by other losses covered by the policy or (ii) is in an amount not less than the sum of 100% of the actual replacement costs of all of the properties covered under such "blanket coverage" insurance policy. Neither the issuance of any such property insurance policy nor the minimum limits specified in this Article shall be deemed to limit or restrict in any way Subtenants liability arising under or out of this Sublease.
11.3 Prime Landlords Insurance
During the term of this Sublease and to the extent Prime Landlord is required to do so in the Prime Lease, Subtenant shall cause Prime Landlord:
(a) to maintain in force insurance of the type commonly referred to as an "all risk of physical loss" policy, equivalent to the Insurance Service Office "causes of loss special form," in an amount equal to the full replacement cost of the Building (with a deductible not exceeding $100,000 for any loss); commercial general liability insurance in an amount not less than $5,000,000 per occurrence and $10,000,000 in the aggregate (with a deductible not exceeding $100,000) insuring the Building and the Property against all risks and hazards as are customarily insured against, in Prime Landlords reasonable judgment, by others similarly situated and operating like properties; and rental loss insurance in an amount not less than twelve (12) months rent for the Building. Without limitation of the foregoing, Prime Landlord, by consenting to this Sublease, agrees to maintain in force such insurance as may be required by the holder of the Mortgage. The premiums and deductible amounts on the insurance policies referred to in this paragraph will be part of Operating Expenses.
(b) to carry workers compensation and employers liability insurance on those employees who may at any time enter the Subleased Premises.
(c) to carry all such insurance by responsible insurance companies, qualified to do business in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Insurance companies complying with the requirements of any holder of a mortgage on the Building shall be deemed acceptable.
(d) to provide Subtenant with appropriate evidence of the insurance required under this Section 11.3 once a year, upon the written request from Subtenant.
11.4 Waiver of Subrogation
Sublandlord shall, during the Term hereof, require the Prime Landlord to, and Subtenant shall, obtain waivers of subrogation from their respective insurance carriers in accordance with Section 17.5 of the Prime Lease.
12. Fire or Casualty
12.1 Damage and Restoration
If the Subleased Premises or any Building Systems or common areas of the Building serving or providing access to the Subleased Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty (such fire or casualty herein referred to as the "Casualty "), and the Prime Lease shall remain in effect, Sublandlord shall enforce its rights under the Prime Lease to cause the Prime Landlord to repair and restore the Casualty, to the extent the Prime Lease permits Sublandlord to do so. If Prime Landlord is obligated to, or elects to repair and restore the damage from and under the foregoing provisions, then such restoration shall be to substantially the condition that existed prior to the Casualty, except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other laws, or by a lender(s) holding a Mortgage(s), and any other modifications to the common areas deemed desirable by Prime Landlord (provided access to the Subleased Premises is not materially impaired). Neither Sublandlord nor Prime Landlord shall be required to repair or replace any of Subtenants furniture, furnishing, fixtures or equipment, or any Alterations or Subtenant Improvements not originally installed or constructed by Sublandlord or Prime Landlord at its expense. Sublandlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Subtenant or its visitors, or injury to Subtenants business resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof, except that Sublandlord shall allow Subtenant a proportionate abatement of Rent during the time and to the extent the Subleased Premises are unfit for occupancy by Subtenant as a result thereof; provided, if the Subleased Premises or any other portion of the Building is damaged by a Casualty caused in whole or in part by Subtenant or any of Subtenants agents, contractors, employees, or visitors, Rent shall not be so abated.
12.2 Termination
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Building is damaged by a Casualty that prevents or materially impairs access to or use of the Subleased Premises (or if a material portion of the Subleased Premises are damaged by a Casualty) to such an extent that restoration thereof cannot reasonably be completed within eighteen (18) months after the Casualty shall have occurred, without the payment of overtime or other premiums, as reasonably determined by Prime Landlord, then either Subtenant or Sublandlord (provided that Sublandlord may act only with the written consent of Prime Landlord) may elect to terminate this Sublease by written notice to the other and to Prime Landlord given within forty-five (45) days after the occurrence of the Casualty, and Rent shall be apportioned accordingly. If the parties fail to give such a notice of termination within said 45 day period, then both parties shall be deemed to have waived the right to terminate this Sublease as a result of such Casualty, and this Sublease shall remain in full force and effect, subject to the abatement of Rent under Section 12.1 of this Sublease.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any such damage rendering all or a substantial part of the Subleased Premises or the Building untenantable occurs during the last eighteen (18) months of the Term (as defined in this Sublease or, if Subtenant has exercised its Option under the Consent, as described under the Consent), and it cannot be repaired within the earlier of thirty (30) days after the Casualty or the date which is sixty (60) days prior to the end of the Term, then either party shall have the option to terminate this Sublease by written notice to the other (and Prime Landlord) within thirty (30) days after the damage has occurred, and if such option is exercised, this Sublease shall terminate as of the date of such damage.
13. Eminent Domain
13.1 Taking
In case the Building or the Subleased Premises, or such part thereof as shall substantially interfere with Subtenants use and occupancy thereof, shall be taken by any lawful power or authority by exercise of the right of eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking, either Subtenant or Sublandlord may terminate this Sublease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority, by notice given within twenty (20) business days after receipt of notice of the taking. Except as provided herein, Subtenant shall not assert any claim against any taking party because of such taking. Nothing contained in this Article shall be deemed to give Sublandlord any interest in, or prevent Subtenant from seeking any award against the taking authority for, the taking of the Subtenant Improvements and other personal property and fixtures belonging to Subtenant or for relocation or business interruption expenses which Subtenant may be entitled to recover from the taking authority.
13.2 Temporary Taking
If all or any portion of the Subleased Premises are temporarily condemned or otherwise taken for public or quasi-public use, this Sublease shall remain in full force and effect and Subtenant shall continue to perform all of the terms, conditions and covenants of this Sublease, including, without limitation, the payment of Rent and all other amounts required hereunder. Subtenant shall be entitled to receive the entire award made in connection with any temporary condemnation or other taking attributable to any period within the Term. Sublandlord (or Prime Landlord, as the case may be) shall be entitled to the entire award for any such temporary condemnation or other taking which relates to a period after the expiration of the Term or which is allocable to the cost of restoration of the Subleased Premises. If any such temporary condemnation or other taking terminates prior to the expiration of the Term, Subtenant shall restore the Subleased Premises as nearly as possible to the condition prior to the condemnation or other taking at Subtenants sole cost and expense; provided Subtenant shall receive the portion of the award attributable to such restoration.
14. Assignment and Subletting
14.1 Limitation
(a) Subtenant shall not directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily (i) assign, mortgage or otherwise encumber (collectively, "Assignment") all or any portion of its leasehold estate or (ii) permit the Subleased Premises to be occupied by anyone other than Subtenant or Subtenants employees or sublet the Subleased Premises or any portion thereof without obtaining the prior written consent of Sublandlord and Prime Landlord, which consents shall be granted or denied as determined within the sole discretion of the Sublandlord and Prime Landlord, subject, however, to subparagraphs (b) and (c) below. Any attempted Assignment or Sub-Sublease (collectively, a "Transfer") without such consent shall be null and void and of no effect.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph 14.1(a), Subtenant shall have the right, after notice thereof to Sublandlord and Prime Landlord, to effect a Transfer without the approval of Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, and without sharing any resulting Profit with Sublandlord, to (i) any entity resulting from a merger or consolidation with Subtenant; (ii) any entity succeeding to the business and assets of Subtenant by merger, consolidation, or otherwise; or (iii) any entity which is a subsidiary or Affiliate of Subtenant, provided in each case the net worth of the transferee, calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, is at least $100,000,000. For purposes of this Sublease, an "Affiliate" shall mean an entity controlled by Subtenant, or which controls Subtenant, or which is under common control with Subtenant. For purposes of this definition, the word "control," as used above means with respect to a corporation or other separate legal entity, the right to exercise, directly or indirectly, more than fifty (50%) percent of the voting rights attributable to the shares of the controlled corporation or other interests in the other entity, as the case may be, and directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of the controlled entity.
(c) In addition to the Transfers permitted by subparagraph (b) above, Subtenant shall have the right, after written notice to Sublandlord and Prime Landlord, to sublet up to 30,000 square feet of Rentable Area to an unrelated entity or entities, without any approval from Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, and without sharing any resulting Profit with Sublandlord, provided (i) any resulting sub-sublease shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of this Sublease; and (ii) Subtenant shall not have sublet any space to an unaffiliated entity without its landlords consent pursuant to its lease in the building known as One Commerce Square ("One Commerce") adjacent to the Building which, when taken in combination with the sublet space within the Subleased Premises exceeds, in the aggregate, 30,000 square feet of Rentable Area. No such sub-subtenant shall be permitted to further sublet, assign, or otherwise permit any other party to occupy its space. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subtenant will not enter into a sublease pursuant to this paragraph with any party as to whom Sublandlord or Prime Landlord may have a right to object pursuant to Article 14.3(a)(i).
(d) No Transfer shall relieve Subtenant of its obligation to pay the Rent and to perform all of the other obligations to be performed by Subtenant hereunder. The acceptance of Rent by Sublandlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Sublandlord of any provision of this Sublease or to a consent to any Transfer. Consent to one Transfer shall not be deemed to constitute consent to any subsequent Transfer.
14.2 Notice of Intent to Assign or Sublet
Except as otherwise provided in subparagraphs 14.l(b) and (c) above, if Subtenant desires at any time to Transfer the Subleased Premises or any portion thereof, it shall first give Sublandlord and Prime Landlord notice (the "Transfer Notice ") specifying (a) the size and location of the space Subtenant proposes to transfer (the "Transfer Space"); (b) the terms and provisions of the proposed Transfer; (c) the date on which Subtenant proposes that the Transfer be effective, which shall not be less than forty-five (45) days after the Transfer Notice; (d) the name of the proposed assignee, subtenant, transferee or occupant ("Transferee"); (e) the nature of the proposed Transferees business to be carried on in the Transfer Space; and (f) such financial information as Sublandlord may reasonably request concerning the proposed Transferee.
14.3 Right of Recapture; Sublandlords and Prime Landlords Consent
Except for Transfers pursuant to subparagraphs 14.1(b) and (c) above, Sublandlord and Prime Landlord shall have the right of recapture as set forth in this paragraph 14.3. At any time within fifteen (15) days after Sublandlords receipt of the Transfer Notice information set forth in Section 14.2 of this Sublease, Sublandlord may by written notice to Subtenant and Prime Landlord, elect to recapture the Transfer Space (the "Sublandlord Period"). In the event Sublandlord does not elect to recapture the Transfer Space within the Sublandlord Period, at any time within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the Sublandlord Period, Prime Landlord may by written notice to Subtenant elect to recapture the Transfer Space (collectively, the "Recapture"). Upon such Recapture, Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, as the case may be, may terminate this Sublease with respect thereto, unless the Transfer involves a sub-sublease for a term which expires at least one year prior to expiration of the Term of this Sublease and, provided, that in no event shall such Recapture terminate or otherwise adversely impact Subtenants option to lease the Subleased Premises under the Consent. If Sublandlord and Prime Landlord do not elect to Recapture the Transfer Space, or are not entitled to do so, Subtenant may transfer the Transfer Space to the Transferee on the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice subject to the following conditions:
(a) Sublandlord and Prime Landlord shall have consented to such Transfer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed beyond thirty (30) days following Sublandlords and Prime Landlords receipt of the Transfer Notice, provided, however, that Sublandlords or Prime Landlords refusal to consent to any Transfer shall be deemed reasonable if:
(i) The Transferee is of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building or the Property;
(ii) The Transferee intends to use the Transfer Space for purposes which are not permitted under this Lease;
(iii) The Transferee is a current tenant or subtenant of the Property or has been involved in bona fide negotiations with Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, as evidenced by a specific written proposal to such Transferee, for space in the Property within the preceding six (6) months;
(iv) The Transfer Space is not suitable for normal renting purposes in conformity with all applicable building and safety codes;
(v) The Transferee is a governmental body (or subdivision or agency thereof);
(vi) The Transferee is, in the reasonable judgment of Sublandlord, insolvent or does not have the financial capacity to perform the obligations to be assumed for the term of the Transfer.
(b) If the Transfer is not completed within ninety (90) days of Sublandlords and Prime Landlords consent thereto, Subtenant shall once again comply with all of the provisions of this Article 14, including, without limitation, the obligation to give Sublandlord and Prime Landlord the Transfer Notice and Sublandlord and Prime Landlord shall again have the right of recapturing the Transfer Space and terminating the Lease with respect thereto.
(c) Any Sub-sublease shall provide that it is subject and subordinate to this Sublease and to all underlying Mortgages; that Sublandlord may enforce the provisions of the Sublease, including collection of Rent; that the cost of any modification to the Subleased Premises, Building and/or Project arising from or as a result of the Sub-sublease shall be the sole responsibility of Subtenant; that in the event of termination of this Sublease for any reason, including without limitation a voluntary surrender by Subtenant, or in the event of any reentry or repossession of the Subleased Premises by Sublandlord, Sublandlord may, at its option, either (i) terminate the Sub-sublease or (ii) take over all of the right, title, and interest of Subtenant, as Sublandlord, under such Sub-Sublease, in which case the Transferee shall attorn to Sublandlord, but that nevertheless Sublandlord shall not (1) be liable for any previous act or omission of Subtenant under such Sub-Sublease, (2) be subject to any defense or offset previously accrued in favor of the Transferee against Subtenant, or (3) be bound by any previous modification of any Sub-Sublease made without Sublandlords written consent, or by any previous prepayment by the Transferee of more than one months Rent. Subtenant waives any right it may have at law or in equity to terminate this Sublease as a result of Sublandlords failure to consent to a Transfer in a manner consistent with this Article 14.
(d) Each Transferee by assignment shall assume all obligations of Subtenant under this Sublease and shall be and remain liable jointly and severally with Subtenant for the payment of the Rent, and for the performance of all of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained on Subtenants part to be performed for the term of this Sublease; provided, however, that the Transferee shall be liable to Sublandlord for Rent only in the amount set forth in the Transfer. No Assignment shall be binding on Sublandlord unless the Transferee or Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord a counterpart of an assignment and an instrument in recordable form which contains a covenant of assumption by the Transferee satisfactory in substance and form to Sublandlord consistent with the requirements of this paragraph 14.3(d), but the failure or refusal of the Transferee to execute such instrument of assumption shall not release or discharge the Transferee from its liability as set forth above.
(e) If there are any Profits from any Transfer, except for Transfers under subparagraphs 14.1(b) or (c) of this Sublease, Subtenant shall pay fifty percent (50%) of such Profits to Sublandlord as Rent. Sublandlords share of Profits shall be paid to Sublandlord within three (3) days after receipt thereof by Subtenant. The payment of Profits to Sublandlord shall be made on a monthly basis as Rent with respect to each Transfer separately subject to an annual reconciliation on each anniversary date of the Transfer. If the payments to Sublandlord under this Subparagraph during the twelve (12) months preceding each annual reconciliation exceed the amount of Profits determined on an annual basis, then Sublandlord shall promptly refund to Subtenant the amount of such overpayment or credit the overpayment against Subtenants future obligations under this Subparagraph, at Subtenants option. If Subtenant has underpaid its obligations hereunder during the preceding twelve (12) months, Subtenant shall immediately pay to Sublandlord the amount owing after the annual reconciliation.
For purposes of this Article 14, "Profits" are defined as all cash or cash equivalent amounts and sums which Subtenant (including any Affiliate or Successor of Subtenant or other entity related to Subtenant) receives on a monthly basis from any Transferee, directly or indirectly, attributable to the Subleased Premises or any portion hereof, less the sum of (1) the amount amortized over the term of the Transfer for (i) any additional Subtenant improvement costs paid to Subtenants Transferee by Subtenant; (ii) reasonable leasing commissions paid by Subtenant in connection with the Transfer; (iii) other economic concessions (planning allowance, lease takeover payments, moving expenses, etc.) paid by Subtenant to or on behalf of the Transferee in connection with the Transfer; (iv) reasonable costs incurred by Subtenant in advertising the Transfer Space; and (v) Subtenants reasonable attorneys fees paid by Subtenant in connection with the Transfer (such amounts to be amortized over the term of the Transfer), and (2) the Rent and additional rent pursuant to Article 5 of this Sublease paid during each such annual period by Subtenant attributable pro rata based on Rentable Area to the Transfer space. Any lump sum payment received by Subtenant from a Transferee shall be treated like any other amount so received by Subtenant for the applicable annual period and shall be utilized in computing Profits in accordance with the foregoing. All Profits and the components thereof shall be subject to audit by Sublandlord or its representatives at reasonable times. Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord, upon request, any information reasonably required by Sublandlord to calculate and/or substantiate the amount of Profits hereunder.
14.4 Costs
Subtenant agrees to reimburse Sublandlord and Prime Landlord for their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and attorneys fees incurred in connection with the processing and documentation of any requested Transfer whether or not Sublandlord or Prime Landlord consents to the Transfer or the same is finally consummated.
14.5 Rights Personal to Subtenant
Rights of Transfer set forth in this Article 14 are personal to Subtenant and may not be conveyed or assigned.
14.6 No Event of Default
Subtenants rights of Transfer are specifically contingent upon there being no Event of Default at the time of any proposed transfer.
15. Sublandlords Reserved Rights
15.1 Sublandlords Right to Transfer
Sublandlord may transfer its interest in the Subleased Premises without the consent of Subtenant provided any such transferee assumes all of Sublandlords obligations hereunder from and after the date hereof, and such transfer or subsequent transfer shall not be deemed a violation on Sublandlords part of any term or condition of this Sublease. Upon such transfer, Sublandlord shall automatically be relieved of any and all obligations on its part accruing from and after the date of said transfer.
15.2 Right of Entry
Sublandlord and Prime Landlord and their respective agents and representatives shall have the right, at all reasonable times, but in such manner as to cause as little disturbance to Subtenant as reasonably practicable, to enter the Subleased Premises for the following purposes: (a) inspecting the physical condition of the Subleased Premises; (b) performing all obligations of Sublandlord under this Sublease or Applicable Laws; (c) showing the Subleased Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees and (during the last twelve months of the Term) prospective tenants; (d) maintaining, replacing, extending or otherwise modifying the Building Systems; and (e) access to telephone closets, electrical panels, and similar installations which may serve areas of the Building other than (or in addition to) the Subleased Premises. Except for (i) emergencies and (ii) entry to furnish janitorial or other services, Sublandlord (or Prime Landlord, as the case may be) will give Subtenant reasonable notice (which may be oral) prior to any entry, and Subtenant shall have the right to have one of its employees accompany the persons entering the Subleased Premises. No such entry shall be construed under any circumstances as a forcible or unlawful entry into the Subleased Premises, or an eviction of Subtenant. Subtenant hereby waives any claim against Sublandlord and Prime Landlord and their respective agents or representatives for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with, Subtenants business or quiet enjoyment of the Subleased Premises.
15.3 Building and Common Areas
Without limitation of the preceding paragraph, and provided they do not unreasonably interfere with Subtenants use, Sublandlord and Prime Landlord may: (a) install, repair, replace or relocate pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and appurtenant meters and equipment for service to other parts of the Building above the ceiling surfaces, below the floor surfaces, within the walls and in the central core areas of the Subleased Premises or the rest of the Building (b) repair, renovate, alter, expand or improve the Building; (c) make changes to the common areas, including, without limitation, changes in the location, size, shape and number of street entrances, driveways, ramps, entrances, exits, parking spaces, parking areas, loading and unloading areas, halls, passages, stairways and other means of ingress and egress, direction of traffic, landscaped areas and walkways; (d) close temporarily any of the common areas for maintenance purposes as long as reasonable access to the Subleased Premises remains available; (e) use the common areas while engaged in making additional improvements, repairs or alterations to the Building, or any portion thereof; and (f) do and perform such other acts and make such other changes in, to or with respect to the common areas and Building and other portions of the Property as Sublandlord or Prime Landlord may deem appropriate. At Subtenants request, Sublandlord will cause Prime Landlord to perform the foregoing work (to the extent it adversely affects Subtenants use of the Subleased Premises) after Normal Working Hours if (a) labor is available at such times and (b) Subtenant pays any extra costs involved, which will be invoiced to Subtenant pursuant to Article 5.1(d).
16. Indemnification and Waiver
16.1 Indemnity by Subtenant
Subtenant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless, Sublandlord, Prime Landlord and Manager and their respective officers, directors, members, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively, "Sublandlord Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all claims, suits, demands, liability, damages and expenses, including attorneys fees and costs (collectively, "Indemnified Claims"), arising from or in connection with Subtenants use or alteration of the Subleased Premises or the conduct of its business or from any activity performed or permitted by Subtenant in or about the Subleased Premises, the Building or any part of the Property, or arising from any breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Subtenants part to be performed under the terms of this Sublease, or arising from Subtenants use of the Building Systems in excess of their capacity or arising from any other act, neglect, fault or omission of Subtenant or any of its officers, agents, directors, contractors, employees, subtenants, assignees, licensees or invitees. If any action or proceeding is brought against any of the Sublandlord Indemnified Parties in connection with any Indemnified Claims, Subtenant, upon notice from Sublandlord, shall defend the same at Subtenants expense with counsel approved by Sublandlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Subtenants obligations under this paragraph 16.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease. This indemnification by Subtenant shall extend to and be applicable, and the Sublandlord Indemnified Parties shall be Indemnified regardless of whether or not such Indemnified Claim is made by or on behalf of an employee of Subtenant.
16.2 Waiver
As a material part of the consideration to the Sublandlord for entering into this Sublease, Subtenant hereby assumes all risk of and releases, discharges and holds harmless Sublandlord, Prime Landlord and Manager from and against any and all liability to Subtenant for damage to property or injury to persons in, upon or about the Subleased Premises from any cause whatsoever except that which is caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Sublandlord, Manager or Prime Landlord, respectively. In no event shall Sublandlord, Manager or Prime Landlord be liable to Subtenant for any injury to any person in or about the Subleased Premises or damage to the Subleased Premises or for any loss, damage or injury to any property of Subtenant therein by any malfunction of any utility or other equipment, installation or system, or by the rupture, leakage or overflow of any plumbing or other pipes, including without limitation, water, steam and refrigeration lines, sprinklers, tanks, drains, drinking fountains or similar cause in, about or upon the Subleased Premises, the Building or any other portion of the Property unless such loss, damage or injury, is caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Sublandlord, Manager or Prime Landlord, respectively.
16.3 Indemnity by Sublandlord
Sublandlord shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless, Subtenant and its officers, directors, members, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively, "Subtenant Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all claims, suits, demands, liability, damages and expenses, including reasonable and actual attorneys fees and costs (collectively, "Subtenant Indemnified Claims"), arising from or in connection with Sublandlords conduct of its business or from any activity performed by Sublandlord or Sublandords agents in or about the Subleased Premises, the Building or any part of the Property, or arising from any breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Sublandlords part to be performed under the terms of this Sublease or the Prime Lease. If any action or proceeding is brought against any of the Subtenant Indemnified Parties in connection with any Subtenant Indemnified Claims, Sublandlord, upon notice from Subtenant, shall defend the same at Sublandlords reasonable and actual expense with counsel approved by Subtenant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Subtenants obligations under this Article 16.3 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease. This indemnification by Sublandlord shall extend to and be applicable, and the Subtenant Indemnified Parties shall be indemnified regardless of whether or not such Indemnified Claim is made by or on behalf of an employee of Sublandlord.
17. Surrender of Subleased Premises and Removal of Property
17.1 Surrender of Subleased Premises
Upon the expiration of the Term, or upon any earlier termination hereof, Subtenant shall quit and surrender possession of the Subleased Premises to Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, as the case may be, in as good order and condition as the Subleased Premises are as of the Commencement Date or hereafter may be improved by Sublandlord or Subtenant, reasonable wear and tear, damage by Casualty and repairs which are Sublandlords obligation excepted, and shall, without expense to Sublandlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Subleased Premises, all debris and rubbish, all furniture, equipment, business and trade fixtures, freestanding cabinet work, movable partitioning and other articles of personal property owned by Subtenant or installed or placed by Subtenant at its expense in the Subleased Premises, and all similar articles of any other persons claiming under Subtenant, and Subtenant shall repair all damage to the Subleased Premises and the Property resulting from such removal. If Subtenant, with the prior written approval of Sublandlord and Prime Landlord, elects not to remove the foregoing items, or some or any of them, at the expiration of the Term, all such items shall become the property of Prime Landlord without any payment by Prime Landlord.
17.2 Disposal of Property
In the event of the expiration of this Sublease or other re-entry of the Subleased Premises by Sublandlord as provided in this Sublease, any property of Subtenant not removed by Subtenant upon the expiration of the Term of this Sublease, or within forty-eight (48) hours after a termination by reason of Subtenants default or upon such other earlier termination of this Sublease, unless left with consent pursuant to the last sentence of Article 17.1, shall be considered abandoned and Sublandlord may remove any or all of such property and dispose of the same in any manner or store the same in a public warehouse or elsewhere for the account of, and at the expense and risk of, Subtenant. If Subtenant shall fail to pay the costs of storing any such property after it has been stored for a period of thirty (30) days or more, Sublandlord may sell any or all of such property at public or private sale, in such manner and at such places as Sublandlord, in its sole discretion, may deem proper, without notice to or demand upon Subtenant. In the event of such sale, Sublandlord shall apply the proceeds thereof first, to the cost and expense of sale, including attorneys fees; second, to the payment of the cost of removal and storage; third, to the payment of any other sums which may then or thereafter be due to Sublandlord from Subtenant under any of the terms of this Sublease; and fourth, the balance, if any, to Subtenant.
18. Holding Over
In the event Subtenant holds over after the expiration of the Term, with the express or implied consent of Sublandlord and Prime Landlord, such tenancy shall be a tenancy at will only and not a renewal or an extension for any further term, and such tenancy at will shall be subject to each and every term, covenant and agreement contained herein; provided, however, that Subtenant shall pay as monthly rent during any holding over period, an amount equal to 125% of the monthly Rent payable immediately prior to expiration of the Term. In the event Subtenant holds over more than ninety (90) days Subtenant shall thereafter pay as monthly Rent an amount equal to the greater of (a) 150% of the monthly Rent payable immediately prior to expiration of the Term or (b) the Fair Market Rent for the Subleased Premises. Nothing in this Article shall be construed as a consent by Sublandlord to any holding over by Subtenant and Sublandlord expressly reserves the right to require Subtenant to surrender possession of the Subleased Premises upon the expiration of the Term or upon the earlier termination hereof and to assert any remedy in law or equity to evict Subtenant and/or collect damages in connection with such holding over.
19. Defaults and Remedies
19.1 Defaults by Subtenant
The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a material default and breach of this Sublease by Subtenant (each, an "Event of Default"):
(a) If Subtenant fails to pay the Rent or make any other payment required to be made by Subtenant under this Sublease as and when due;
(b) If Subtenant (i) abandons the Subleased Premises or (ii) enters into any Assignment or Sub-Sublease transaction in violation of the terms of this Sublease;
(c) If Subtenant fails to observe or perform the provisions of Articles 4 (Use of Subleased Premises) and/or 9 (Alterations) and/or 11 (Insurance) and such failure continues for forty-eight (48) hours after notice thereof from Sublandlord to Subtenant ;
(d) If Subtenant fails to provide estoppel certificates, or other certificates as herein provided, and such failure continues for three (3) business days after notice to Subtenant following expiration of the ten (10) day period provided herein for the delivery of such certificates;
(e) If Subtenant fails to observe or perform any other provision of this Sublease, including the exhibits hereto, to be observed or performed by Subtenant, and such failure continues for fifteen (15) days after notice thereof from Sublandlord to Subtenant; provided, however, that if the nature of such failure is such that it cannot reasonably be cured within such fifteen (15) day period, Subtenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Subtenant shall within such period commence such cure and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion;
(f) If, upon Subtenants receipt of notice thereof, any action is taken by or against Subtenant pursuant to any statute pertaining to bankruptcy or insolvency or the reorganization of Subtenant (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Subtenant, the same is dismissed within ninety (90) days); Subtenant makes any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; a trustee or receiver is appointed to take possession of all or any portion of Subtenants assets located at the Subleased Premises or of Subtenants interest in this Sublease, and possession is not restored to Subtenant within ninety (90) days; or all or any portion of Subtenants assets located at the Subleased Premises or of Subtenants interest in this Sublease is attached, executed upon, or otherwise judicially seized and such seizure is not discharged within ninety (90) days;
(g) If Subtenant fails to vacate and surrender the Subleased Premises as required by this Sublease upon the expiration of the Term (subject to Subtenants right to continue in occupancy pursuant to the Consent) or sooner termination of this Sublease; and/or
(h) If Subtenant submits to Sublandlord any materially false information on any document required to be given by Subtenant to Sublandlord.
19.2 Sublandlords Remedies
If there shall occur an Event of Default, Sublandlord shall have and may exercise all remedies available to Sublandlord at law or in equity or under any statute or ordinance. Without limitation of the foregoing, Sublandlord may at its option take all or any of the following actions:
(a) Acceleration of Rent. Declare due and payable and sue for and recover, all unpaid Rent for the unexpired period of the Term as if by the terms of this Sublease the same were payable in advance, or sue for Rent monthly as it accrues;
(b) Termination. Terminate this Sublease by giving written notice thereof and, upon the giving of such notice, this Sublease and the estate hereby granted shall expire and terminate with the same force and effect as though the date of such notice were the date fixed for the expiration of the Term, and all rights of Subtenant hereunder shall expire and terminate, but Subtenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided;
(c) Recovery of Possession; Reletting. Whether not this Sublease has been terminated as herein provided, re-enter and repossess the Subleased Premises or any part thereof by summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and Sublandlord shall have the right to remove all persons and property therefrom. Sublandlord shall be under no liability for or by reason of any such entry, repossession or removal, and no such re-entry or taking of possession of the Subleased Premises by Sublandlord shall be construed as an election on Sublandlords part to terminate this sublease or to accept a surrender thereof unless a written notice of such intention be given to Subtenant or unless the termination of this Sublease be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Sublandlord shall have no obligation to mitigate damages; however, after repossessing the Subleased Premises or any part thereof whether or not the Term shall have been terminated, Sublandlord may at its option make commercially reasonable efforts to relet all or any part of the Subleased Premises for the account of Subtenant for such term or terms (which may be greater or less than the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term) and on such conditions (which may include concessions or free rent) and or such uses as Sublandlord, in its sole discretion, may determine, and Sublandlord may collect any rents payable by reason of such reletting and apply the same on account of Rent due and to become due hereunder. Sublandlord shall not be required to accept any tenant offered by Subtenant or observe any instruction given by Subtenant about such reletting, or do any act or exercise any care or diligence with respect to such reletting. For the purpose of such reletting, Sublandlord may decorate or make repairs, changes, alterations or additions in or to the Subleased Premises or any part thereof to the extent deemed by Sublandlord desirable or convenient, and the cost of such decoration, repairs, changes, alterations or additions shall be charged to and be payable by Subtenant as Rent hereunder, as well as any reasonable advertising costs and brokerage and legal fees expended by Sublandlord. Sublandlord reserves the right to terminate this Sublease at any time after taking possession of the Subleased Premises. Neither termination nor repossession and reletting shall relieve Subtenant of its obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive such termination, repossession or reletting. Sublandlord may file suit to recover any sums falling due from time to time and no suit or recovery of any sum due Sublandlord hereunder shall be any defense to any subsequent action brought for any amount not theretofore reduced to judgment in favor of Sublandlord; or
(d) Liquidated Damages. Terminate this Sublease and recover from Subtenant upon demand therefor, unless Subtenant has paid the whole of accelerated Rent pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, as liquidated and agreed upon final damages for Subtenants default, an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (a) Rent and other sums which would be payable under this Sublease for the remainder of the Term, discounted to present worth at the rate of five (5%) percent per annum, and (b) the then Fair Market Rent of the Subleased Premises, calculated as set forth in Article 3, discounted to present worth at a like rate.
19.3 Calculation of Rent
Notwithstanding anything else herein contained, in calculating future Rent for purposes of subparagraphs 19.2(a), 19.2(c) and 19.2(d) above, Sublandlords reasonable and good faith estimate of future Operating Expenses and future Real Property Taxes shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. In addition, Sublandlord may include as an item of Rent its reasonable attorneys fees and costs in enforcing its rights hereunder.
19.4 Waivers by Subtenant
In the event of a termination of this Sublease as a result of an Event of Default, Subtenant hereby waives all right to recover or regain possession of the Subleased Premises, to save forfeiture by payment of Rent due or by other performance of the conditions, terms or provisions hereof. If such termination occurred by reason of a failure in performance hereof, and without limitation of or by the foregoing, Subtenant waives all right to reinstate or redeem this Sublease notwithstanding any provisions of any statute, law or decision now or hereafter in force or effect, and Subtenant waives all right to any second or further trial in summary proceedings, ejectment or in any other action provided by any statute or decision now or hereafter in force or effect. Subtenant hereby waives all notices required by the Landlord and Tenant Act of 1951, as amended, and as the same may hereafter be amended, and/or any other provision of Pennsylvania law.
19.5 Right of Sublandlord to Injunction; Remedies Cumulative
Upon any actual or threatened Event of Default, Sublandlord shall have the right of injunction to restrain the same. The rights and remedies given to Sublandlord in this Sublease are distinct, separate and cumulative remedies, and no one of them, whether or not exercised by Sublandlord, shall be deemed to be in exclusion of any of the others.
19.6 Waiver of Jury Trial
Sublandlord and Subtenant (and Prime Landlord to the extent the provisions of this Sublease are applicable to it) hereby waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other on any matters whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this Sublease, the relationship of Sublandlord and Subtenant, Subtenants use or occupancy of the Subleased Premises, and/or any claim of injury or damage, or for the enforcement of any remedy under any statute, emergency or otherwise.
19.7 Definition of Subtenant
The term "Subtenant" shall be deemed to include all persons or entities named as Subtenant under this Sublease, or each and every one of them. If any of the obligations of Subtenant hereunder is guaranteed by another person or entity, the term "Subtenant" shall be deemed to include all of the guarantors. If this Sublease has been assigned, the term "Subtenant" shall be deemed to include both the assignee and the assignor.
20. Covenant Against Liens
Subtenant has no authority or power to cause or permit any lien or encumbrance of any kind whatsoever, whether created by act of Subtenant, operation of law or otherwise, to attach to or be placed upon the Building or the Subleased Premises, or on Subtenants leasehold hereunder, Subtenant further agrees not to suffer or permit any lien of mechanics or materialmen or others to be placed against the Property, the Building or the Subleased Premises, or any portion thereof, with respect to work or services performed for or materials furnished to Subtenant or the Subleased Premises (including, without limitation, in connection with the Subtenant Improvements and any Alterations). Subtenant agrees to cause any such lien to be immediately released and removed of record, at Subtenants expense. Subtenant affirms that the Subtenant Improvements are solely for the use and benefit of Subtenant, and not in any way for the immediate benefit of Sublandlord or Prime Landlord.
21. Interest on Subtenants Obligations; Late Charges
21.1 Interest
Any amount due from Subtenant to Sublandlord which is not paid within five days after it is due shall bear interest at ten (10%) percent per annum, from the date such payment is due until paid, but the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default or Event of Default by Subtenant under this Sublease.
21.2 Late Charge
In the event Subtenant is more than five days late in paying any amount of Rent due under this Sublease, Subtenant shall pay Sublandlord a late charge equal to two percent (2%) of each delinquent amount of Rent and any subsequent delinquent amount of Rent. The parties agree that the amount of such late charge represents a reasonable estimate of the cost and expense that would be incurred by Sublandlord in processing each delinquent payment of Rent by Subtenant and that such late charge shall be paid to Sublandlord as liquidated damages for each delinquent payment, but the payment of such late charge shall not excuse or cure any default or Event of Default by Subtenant under this Sublease. The parties further agree that the payment of late charges and the payment of interest provided for in the preceding paragraph are distinct and separate from one another in that the payment of interest is to compensate Sublandlord for the use of Sublandlords money by Subtenant, while the payment of a late charge is to compensate Sublandlord for the additional administrative expense incurred by Sublandlord in handling and processing delinquent payments, but excluding attorneys' fees and costs incurred with respect to such delinquent payments.
22. Lease Fees
Subtenant represents and warrants to Sublandlord that it has not had any contact or dealings with any real estate broker, agent, representative or other intermediary other than Thomas Realty Partners LP and Grubb & Ellis Company and Greenville Partners L.L.C. (collectively, the "Representatives") which would give rise to the payment of any fee in connection with this Sublease or the Consent. Subtenant shall indemnify Sublandlord and the Prime Landlord from and against any loss, liability or damage (including attorneys fees and costs) with respect to any fee (except to the persons named above) arising out of any breach or alleged breach of the foregoing representation and warranty. In consideration therefor, Sublandlord (and Prime Landlord by its Consent to this Sublease) agrees to pay fees due the persons named above in connection with this Sublease in accordance with separate fee agreements between Sublandlord, Prime Landlord and the persons named above.
23. Rules and Regulations
The "Rules and Regulations" attached hereto as Exhibit "H" are hereby incorporated herein and made a part of this Sublease. Subtenant agrees to abide by and comply with each and every one of said Rules and Regulations and any amendments, modifications and/or additions thereto as may hereafter be adopted by Sublandlord or Prime Landlord for the safety, care, security, good order and cleanliness of the Subleased Premises, the Building, the Garage or any other portion of the Property, provided that such Rules and Regulations are applied uniformly to all tenants of the Building. Prime Landlord shall have the right to amend, modify or add to the Rules and Regulations in its sole discretion. Subtenant shall not be obligated to comply with any future Rules and Regulations or amendments thereto until Subtenant has received a written copy of such Rules and Regulations.
24. Directory Board and Signs
24.1 Directory Board
During the Term, Subtenant shall have the right to designate one (1) name (a department or individual) per thousand square feet of Rentable Area in the Subleased Premises occupied by Subtenant for placement on the directory board in the lobby of the Building. Prime Landlord shall have the option to maintain, in place of the directory board in the lobby of the Building, a computerized directory with display screen which has the capacity to accommodate Subtenants designation of names as set forth above.
24.2 Interior Signs
Subtenant shall be permitted to install, at its own expense, appropriate signage containing the name of Subtenant or its Affiliates at the entrance to the Subleased Premises, and, so long as Subtenant leases all of the Rentable Area on individual floors of the Subleased Premises, on the walls of the elevator lobbies on each floor of the Subleased Premises leased solely by Subtenant. Any such signage will be designed and constructed in a manner compatible with Building standard signage and graphics criteria and shall be subject to Sublandlords and Prime Landlords prior written approval which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Upon expiration of the Term, Subtenant shall promptly remove all its signs and repair and restore the surfaces on which, such signs were attached to their prior condition, at Subtenants expense.
25. Deliberately Omitted
26. General Provisions
26.1 No Waiver
The waiver by Sublandlord of any breach of any provision contained in this Sublease, or the failure of Sublandlord to insist on the strict performance by Subtenant, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision as to any subsequent breach thereof or of any other provision contained in this Sublease. The acceptance of Rent hereunder by Sublandlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any breach or default by Subtenant regardless of Sublandlords knowledge of such breach or default at the time of acceptance of Rent.
26.2 Sublandlords Right to Perform
If Subtenant shall fail to perform any act required to be performed by Subtenant, Sublandlord may, after giving any notice and allowing any grace period required by Article 19 ("Defaults and Remedies") without obligation, and without waiving or releasing Subtenant from any default or obligations of Subtenant, make any such payment or perform any other act which Subtenant should have performed. All sums so paid by Sublandlord and all costs incurred by Sublandlord in making such payment or performing such other act or obligation and/or in enforcing this Sublease, including attorneys fees, together with interest thereon at ten (10%) percent per annum, shall be payable to Sublandlord on demand and Subtenant agrees to pay any such sums, and Sublandlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy hereunder) the same rights and remedies in the event of the non-payment thereof by Subtenant as in the case of default by Subtenant in the payment of Rent. If Prime Landlord defaults in the performance of its obligations under the Consent or the Prime Lease and such default results in a breach of this Sublease by Sublandlord, Subtenant shall not seek any remedy for such alleged breach by Sublandlord unless and until Subtenant gives a notice of such breach to Sublandlord, specifying the basis therefor, and Sublandlord is given a period of at least thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice in which to cause Prime Landlord to perform its obligations under the Prime Lease or Landlord Consent or to perform the Prime Landlords obligations on its behalf; provided that such thirty (30) day period shall be extended to such longer period as is commercially reasonably required for Prime Landlord to perform, or for Sublandlord to perform on its behalf, so long as Sublandlord promptly commences and diligently pursues such performance.
26.3 Terms; Headings
The words "Sublandlord" and "Subtenant" as used herein shall include the plural, as well as the singular. The words used in neuter gender include the masculine and feminine and words in the masculine or feminine gender include the neuter. If there is more than one Subtenant, the obligations hereunder imposed upon Subtenant shall be joint and several. The headings or titles of this Sublease shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part hereof.
26.4 Entire Agreement
This instrument along with any exhibits and attachments or other documents attached hereto constitutes the entire and exclusive agreement between Sublandlord and Subtenant with respect to the Subleased Premises. This instrument and said exhibits and attachments and other documents may be altered, amended, modified or revoked only by an instrument in writing signed by both Sublandlord and Subtenant. Sublandlord and Subtenant hereby agree that all prior or contemporaneous oral and written understandings, agreements or negotiations relative to the leasing of the Subleased Premises are merged into and superseded by this instrument.
26.5 Successors and Assigns
Subject to the provisions of Article 14 relating to Assignment and Sublease, this Sublease is intended to and does bind the successors and assigns of any and all of the parties hereto.

With respect to any future Mortgages, Subtenant agrees that it will subordinate its interests hereunder only upon the execution and delivery of a commercially reasonable SNDA with any new lender(s).
(c) Subtenant covenants and agrees that Subtenant shall not do or suffer or permit anything to be done which would constitute a default under the Prime Lease or would cause the Prime Lease to be canceled, terminated or forfeited by virtue of any rights of cancellation, termination, or forfeiture reserved or vested in Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease, and that Subtenant will indemnify and hold harmless Sublandlord from and defend Sublandlord against all claims, liabilities, losses and damages of any kind whatsoever (excepting indirect, special and consequential damages) that Sublandlord may incur by reason of, resulting from or arising out of any such cancellation, termination) or forfeiture.

Subtenant shall exercise this right to terminate by giving Sublandlord notice within sixty (60) days after the date on which Sublandlord signs this Sublease, in which case this Sublease shall be entirely null and void, provided, however, if such notice shall not be delivered by Subtenant within the time period for such notice specified herein (time being of the essence), this Sublease shall be deemed to be in full force and effect.

33.3 First Refusal on Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Floor Space
(a) Notwithstanding Sections 33.1(a), 33.1(b) and 33.2 hereof, if Subtenant has not exercised its option to add any of the fifth (5th) , sixth (6th) or eighth (8th) floors of the Building pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 33.1a, 33.1(b) and 33.2 hereof, respectively, and Sublandlord wishes to sublease any portion of the fifth (5th), sixth (6th) or eighth (8th) floors of the Building, and Sublandlord has received a bona fide written proposal or term sheet which it is prepared to accept as the basis for negotiating a formal sublease document in respect of such floor or floors, Sublandlord shall so notify Subtenant by delivery of a notice (the "Rental Notice") to Subtenant. The Rental Notice need not include any of the terms of the proposal except for the proposed commencement date and the proposed space.

Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, Sublandlord shall not be permitted to lease or sublease to any third party less than half of either the sixth floor or seventh floor or all of the Eighth Floor Space.
(b) If Subtenant declines to exercise its option to add space to the Subleased Premises, and if the proposed sublease transaction is not concluded within 180 days after Sublandlords notice, then Subtenants rights of first refusal under this Article 33.3 shall be reinstated and shall reapply to said proposed sublease transaction.

The amount of Rent, expressed in dollars and cents per rentable square foot, equal to the fair market rental then being negotiated for comparable leases for comparable space in Class A office buildings in Center City Philadelphia office sub-market, as such space is then improved, and taking into account the value of any rent or equivalent concessions then usually and customarily given in connection with the leasing of comparable space for a comparable lease term, such as free rent periods and tenant improvement allowances and the level of any escalation base or "stop" for such comparable space, and other relevant factors. In the event that Prime Landlord and Subtenant are unable to agree on the Fair Market Rent for a Renewal Term within thirty (30) days after Subtenants exercise of any Renewal Option, either party may require determination of the Fair Market Rent for such Renewal Term by giving written notice to that effect to the other party, which notice shall designate an MAI Appraiser selected by the initiating party having at least ten (10) years experience in the office leasing business in Center City Philadelphia office sub-market.
