(e) Reduction or Elimination of An Operating Expense Component. If, during any calendar year, there shall be a reduction or elimination of any particular component of Operating Expenses by reason of the introduction of a labor saving device, energy conservation device, capital improvement or replacement installed by Landlord, the corresponding item of expense in the Operating Expense for the Base Year, shall be eliminated or reduced (in the same proportion as the reduction of that item in the period set forth below). The reduction of the operating expense item in the Base Year shall be made on an annualized basis, in the same proportion as the reduction of that item for the first 12 months of the new operation. (f) Essential Capital Improvement. In the event Landlord shall hereafter make a capital expenditure for an "Essential Capital Improvement"", as hereinafter defined in this Section, the annual amortization of such expenditure (determined by dividing the amount of the expenditure by the reasonable useful life of the improvement) shall be deemed a cost to be included within "Operating Expenses" for each year of such useful life.

In determining Operating Expenses for any year, including the Base Year for Operating Expenses, if less than 95% of the rentable area of the Building shall have been occupied by tenants for more than thirty (30) days during such year, Operating Expenses shall be deemed for such year to be an amount equal to the expenses which would be incurred had such occupancy of the Building been 95% 12 throughout such year, as reasonably determined by Landlord, except that in no event shall Operating Expenses for any year be based upon a percentage of occupancy less than that utilized for the Base Year for Operating Expenses.( (g) For the purpose of this Section, Tenant's Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses and Taxes shall be 32.07% which is based on the gross rentable square foot area of the demised premises of 23,734 sq. ft. as it relates to the gross rentable square foot area of the Building of 74,000 square feet.

If the Tenant remains in possession of the Premises, or any part thereof, for a period greater than one (1) month after the expiration of the term, such holding over shall, at the election of the Landlord expressed in a written notice to the Tenant and not otherwise, constitute a renewal of this lease for one year. The provisions of this Section do not exclude the Landlord's rights of re-entry or any other right hereunder. 12. Assignment and Subletting The Tenant shall not, without the Landlord's prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld, (a) assign, convey, mortgage, pledge, encumber or otherwise transfer (whether voluntarily or otherwise) this Lease or any interest under it; (b) allow any transfer thereof or any lien upon the Tenant's interest by operation of law; (c) sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or (J) permit the use or occupancy of the Premises or any part thereof by any one other than the Tenant. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, on demand, reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in connection with any request by Tenant for Landlord to consent to any assignment or subletting by Tenant. If this lease be assigned or if the Premises or any part thereof be sublet or occupied by anybody other than Tenant, Landlord may, after default by Tenant, collect rent from the assignee, subtenant or occupant, and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such assignment, subletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of any of Tenants covenants contained in this Lease or the acceptance of the assignee, subtenant or occupant as Tenant, or a release of Tenant from further performance by Tenant of covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, and in addition to the Landlord's right to consent to such assignment, in toe event that any time during the term of this Lease, Tenant desires to assign this Lease, Tenant should notify the Landlord in writing (hereinafter referred to as "Assignment Notice") of the terms of the proposed assignment and shall give the Landlord the 21 option to accept an assignment from the Tenant of this Lease on the same terms as this Lease or, at Landlord's option, to terminate this lease. The option to accept such assignment or to terminate this Lease shall be exercisable by Landlord in writing for a period of fifteen (15) days after the receipt of the Assignment Notice. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, and in addition to Landlord's right to consent to such sublet, in the event that at any time during the term of this lease Tenant desires to sublet all or part of the Premises, Tenant shall notify the Landlord in writing (hereinafter referred to as "Sublet Notice") of the terms of the proposed subletting and the area so proposed to be sublet and shall give the Landlord the option to sublet from Tenant such space (hereinafter referred to as "sublet space") at the same rent and additional rent as Tenant is required to pay to Landlord under this lease for the same space or, at Landlord's option, to terminate the lease with respect to the sublet space. If the sublet space does not constitute the entire Premises and Landlord exercises its option to terminate this lease with respect to the sublet space, then as to that portion of the Premises which is not part of the sublet space, this lease shall remain in full force and effect except that the Rent shall be reduced by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the rentable square feet of the sublet space and the denominator of which shall be the rentable square feet of the Premises. The option to sublet, or to terminate the lease, shall be exercisable by Landlord in writing for a period of fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Sublet Notice. In the event Landlord exercises its option to accept such assignment or to sublease the sublet space, the terms of the assignment or the term of the subletting from the Tenant to the Landlord for the sublet space shall be as set forth in the Assignment Notice or the Sublet Notice, as the case may be, and shall be on such other terms and conditions as are contained in this lease to the extent applicable. Tenant shall be entitled to receive Gross Proceeds (as hereinafter defined) in an amount (the "Priority Tenant Share") equal to the sum of $1,000. After Tenant has received the Priority Tenant Share, Tenant shall pay Landlord, as additional rent, as and when received, fifty percent (50%) of Gross Proceeds. "Gross Proceeds" means an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) :he amounts which are payable by the sublessee or an assignee under or in connection with any sublease or assignment of the Premises (less, in the case of each payment of fixed rent or basic rent, an amount equal to five (5%) percent of each such payment) over (y) the corresponding amounts, if any, payable under this Lease (or if there be no such corresponding amount, in excess of zero). Amounts which are payable by the sublessee or an assignee under or in connection with any sublease or assignment of the Premises shall be deemed (x) not to be Gross Proceeds until such payment is received by Tenant and (y) not to include any payment 22 by the sublessee or an assignee under such sublease or operative document(s) with respect to such assignment which is identified as a payment for tenant improvements which were constructed by Tenant, or at Tenant's direction, for such sublessee or assignee, which shall not exceed in the aggregate the then unamortized cost to Tenant of such tenant improvements. In the event Landlord does not exercise either of its options specified above and Tenant completes an assignment or a sublease with a third party, the assignee or subtenant shall be subject to and comply with the requirements of this Section. 13. Condition of Premises Tenant's taking possession of the Premises shall be conclusive evidence as against the Tenant that the Premises were in good order and satisfactory condition when the Tenant took possession. No promises of the Landlord to alter, remodel, repair or improve the Premises or the Building and no representation respecting the condition of the Premises or the Building have been made by Landlord to Tenant, other than as may be contained herein or in a separate Work Letter Agreement signed by Landlord and Tenant. At the termination of this Lease, the Tenant shall return the Premises broom-clean and in as good condition as when the Tenant took possession, ordinary wear and loss by fire or other casualty excepted, failing which the Landlord may restore the Premises to such condition and the Tenant shall pay the cost thereof on demand. 14.

Landlord's Remedies All rights and remedies of the Landlord herein enumerated shall be cumulative, and none shall exclude any other right or remedy allowed by law. In addition to the other remedies in this lease provided, the Landlord shall be entitled to the restraint by injunction of the violation or attempted violation of any of the covenants, agreements or conditions of this Lease.

Notwithstanding the above, Landlord shall only be obligated to give Tenant notice of a default in rent payment two (2) times in each lease year. Thereafter, Tenant shall be immediately in default if rent payments are not made on the date due. Nothing herein shall be construed so as to relieve the Tenant of any obligation, including the payment of minimum annual rent, as provided in this Lease. (c) Upon any termination of this lease, the Tenant shall surrender possession and vacate the Premises immediately, and deliver possession thereof to the Landlord, and hereby grants to the Landlord full and free license to enter into and upon the Premises in such event with or without process of law and to repossess the Landlord of the Premises as of the Landlord's former estate and to expel or remove the Tenant and any others who may be occupying or within the Premises and to remove any and all property therefrom, using such force as may be necessary, without being deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction or forcible entry or detainer, and without relinquishing the Landlord's right to rent or any other right given to the Landlord hereunder or by operation of law. (d) If the Tenant abandons the Premises or the Landlord otherwise becomes entitled so to elect, and the Landlord elects, without terminating the lease, to endeavor to relet the Premises, the Landlord may, at the Landlord's option enter into the Premises, remove the Tenant's signs and other evidence of tenancy, and take and hold possession thereof as in Paragraph (c) of this Section provided, without such entry and possession terminating the lease or releasing the Tenant, in whole or in part, from the Tenant's obligation to pay the Rent hereunder for the full term as hereinafter provided. Upon and after entry into possession without termination of the lease, the Landlord may relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account of the Tenant to any person, firm or corporation other than the Tenant for such rent, for such time and upon such terms as the Landlord shall determine, to be reasonable. In any such case, the Landlord may make repairs, alterations and additions in or to the Premises, and redecorate the same to the extent deemed by the Landlord necessary or desirable, and the Tenant shall, upon demand, pay the cost 30 thereof, together with the Landlord's expenses of the reletting. If tie consideration collected by the Landlord upon any such reletting for the Tenant's account is not sufficient to pay monthly the full amount of the Rent reserved in this lease, together with the cost of repairs, alterations, additions, 31 redecorating and the Landlord's expenses, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord the amount of each monthly deficiency upon demand and if the consideration so collected from any such reletting is more than sufficient to pay the full amount of the Rent reserved herein, together with the costs and expenses of the Landlord, the Landlord, at the end of the stated term of this lease, shall account to the Tenant. (e) If the Landlord elects to terminate this lease in any of the contingencies specified in this Section, it being understood that the Landlord may elect to terminate the lease after and notwithstanding its election to terminate the Tenant's right to possession as in Paragraph (b) of this Section provided, the Landlord shall forthwith upon such termination be entitled to recover as damages, and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the then present value of the minimum annual rent and additional rent provided in this lease for the residue of the stated term hereof, less the present value of the fair rental value of the Premises for the residue of the stated term. (f) Any and all property which may be removed from the Premises by the Landlord pursuant to the authority of the lease or of law, to which the Tenant is or may be entitled, may be handled, removed or stored by the Landlord at the risk, cost and expense of the Tenant, and the Landlord shall in no event be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord, upon demand, any and all expenses incurred in such removal and all storage charges against such property so long as the same shall be in the Landlord's possession or under the Landlord's control. Any such property of the Tenant not removed from the Premises or retaken from storage by the Tenant within thirty (30) days after the end of the term or of the Tenant's right to possession of the Premises, however terminated, shall be conclusively deemed to have been forever abandoned by the Tenant and either may be retained by Landlord as its property or may be disposed of in such manner as Landlord may see fit. (g) The Tenant agrees that if it shall at any time fail to make any payment or perform any other act on its part to be made or performed under this lease, the Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, and after reasonable notice or demand and without waiving, or releasing the Tenant from, any obligation under this lease, make such payment or perform such other act to the extent the Landlord may deem desirable, and in connection therewith to pay expenses and employ counsel. The Tenant agrees to pay a reasonable attorney's fee if legal action is required to enforce performance by Tenant of any condition, obligation or requirement hereunder. All sums so paid by the Landlord and all expenses in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the rate of 18% per annum from the date of payment, shall be deemed additional rent hereunder and payable at the time of any installment of Rent thereafter becoming due and the Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies for the non-payment thereof, or of any other additional rent, as in the case of default in the payment of rent. (h) Interest on Past Due Payments and Advances.

"Prime Rate" shall mean that interest rate set by Wachovia Bank of North Carolina, N.A., from time to time as its interest rate basis for commercial borrowings, but never in excess of the maximum amount of finance charge permissible under applicable law. In the event that the Bank discontinues the use of a Prime Rate, the Prime Rate being charged by any other national banking association located in North Carolina, as selected by Landlord in its sole discretion, shall be used for computing the interest rate under this Section. 19.

Invalidity of Particular Provisions; Severability If any clause or provision of this lease is or becomes illegal, invalid, or unenforceable because of present or future laws or any rule or regulation of any governmental body or entity, effective during its term,, the intention of the parties hereto is that the remaining parts of this lease shall not be affected thereby unless such invalidity is, in the sole determination of Landlord, essential to the rights of both parties in which event Landlord has the right to terminate this lease on written notice to Tenant. 21. Waiver of Benefits Tenant waives the benefits of all existing and future Rent Control Legislation and Statutes and similar governmental rules and regulations, whether in time of war or not, to the extent permitted by law. 34 22.
