Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord the Premises as shown on attached Exhibit "A" within the Building (the Building and the lot on which it is located, the "PROPERTY"), together with the nonexclusive right with Landlord and other occupants of the Building to use all areas and facilities provided by Landlord for the use of all tenants in the Property including any driveways, sidewalks and parking, loading and landscaped areas (the "COMMON AREAS"). 3. Acceptance of Premises. Tenant has examined and knows the condition of the Property, the zoning, streets, sidewalks, parking areas, curbs and access ways adjoining it, visible easements, any surface conditions and the present uses, and Tenant accepts them in the condition in which they now are, without relying on any representation, covenant or warranty by Landlord. Tenant and its agents shall have the right, at Tenant's own risk, expense and responsibility, at all reasonable times prior to the Commencement Date, to enter the Premises for the purpose of taking measurements and installing its furnishings and equipment; provided that the Premises are vacant and Tenant obtains Landlord's prior written consent. 4. Use; Compliance. (a) Permitted Use. Tenant shall occupy and use the Premises for and only for the Use specified in Section l(f) above and in such a manner as is lawful, reputable and will not create any nuisance or otherwise interfere with any other tenant's normal operations or the management of the Building. Without limiting the foregoing, such Use shall exclude any use that would cause the Premises or the Property to be deemed a "place of public accommodation" under the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA") as further described in the Building Rules (defined below). All Common Areas shall be subject to Landlord's exclusive control and management at all times. Tenant shall not use or permit the use of any portion of the Property for outdoor storage or installations outside of the Premises nor for any use that would interfere with any other person's use of any portion of the Property outside of the Premises. (b) Compliance. Landlord represents that, as of the date of this lease, there is no action required with respect to the Premises or Common Areas under any laws (including Title III of the ADA), ordinances, notices, orders, rules, regulations and requirements applicable to the Premises or to the Common Areas. From and after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall comply promptly, at its sole expense, (including making any alterations or improvements) with all laws (including the ADA), ordinances, notices, orders, rules, regulations and requirements regulating the Property during the Term which impose any duty upon Landlord or Tenant with respect to Tenant's use, occupancy or alteration of, or Tenant's installations in or upon, the Property including the Premises, (as the same may be amended, the "LAWS AND REQUIREMENTS") and the building rules attached as Exhibit "C", as amended by Landlord from time to time (the "BUILDING RULES"). Provided, however, that Tenant shall not be required to comply with the Laws and Requirements with respect to the footings, foundations, structural steel columns and girders forming a part of the Property unless the need for such compliance arises out of Tenant's use, occupancy or alteration of the Property, or by any act or omission of Tenant or any employees, agents, contractors, licensees or invitees ("AGENTS") of Tenant. With respect to Tenant's obligations as to the Property, other than the Premises, at Landlord's option and at Tenant's expense, Landlord may comply with any repair, replacement or other construction requirements of the Laws and Requirements and Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs thereof as additional rent. (c) Environmental. Tenant shall comply, at its sole expense, with all Laws and Requirements as set forth above, all manufacturers' instructions and all requirements of insurers relating to the treatment, production, storage, handling, transfer, processing, transporting, use, disposal and release of hazardous substances, hazardous mixtures, chemicals, pollutants, petroleum products, toxic or radioactive matter (the "RESTRICTED ACTIVITIES"). Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of all Material Safety Data Sheets or other written information prepared by manufacturers, importers or suppliers of any chemical and all notices, filings, permits and any other written communications from or to Tenant and any entity regulating any Restricted Activities. (d) Notice. If at any time during or after the Term, Tenant becomes aware of any inquiry, investigation or proceeding regarding the Restricted Activities or becomes aware of any claims, actions or investigations regarding the ADA, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice, within 5 days after first learning thereof, providing all available information and copies of any notices. 5. Term. The Term of this lease shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall end at 11:59 p.m. on the last day of the Term (the "EXPIRATION DATE"), without the necessity for notice from either party, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms hereof. At Landlords request, Tenant shall confirm the Commencement Date and Expiration Date by executing a lease commencement certificate in the form attached as Exhibit "B". 2 6. Minimum Annual Rent. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the Minimum Annual Rent in equal monthly installments in the amount set forth in Section 1(d) (as increased at the beginning of each lease year as set forth in Section 1(d)), in advance, on the first day of each calendar month during the Term, without notice, demand or setoff, at Landlord's address designated at the beginning of this lease unless Landlord designates otherwise; provided that rent for the first full month shall be paid at the signing of this lease. If the Commencement Date falls on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, the rent shall be apportioned pro rata on a per diem basis for the period from the Commencement Date until the first day of the following calendar month and shall be paid on or before the Commencement Date. As used in this lease, the term "lease year" means the period from the Commencement Date through the succeeding 12 full calendar months (including for the first lease year any partial month from the Commencement Date until the first day of the first full calendar month) and each successive 12 month period thereafter during the Term. 7. Operation of Property; Payment of Expenses. (a) Payment of Operating Expenses. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Annual Operating Expenses in equal monthly installments in the amount set forth in Section 1(d) (prorated for any partial month), from the Commencement Date and continuing throughout the Term on the first day of each calendar month during the Term, as additional rent, without notice, demand or setoff, provided that the monthly installment for the first full month shall be paid at the signing of this lease. Landlord shall apply such payments to the operating expenses owed to Landlord by Tenant pursuant to the following Sections 7(b)-(f). The amount of the Annual Operating Expenses set forth in Section 1(d) represents Tenant's Proportionate Share of the estimated operating expenses during the first calendar year of the Term on an annualized basis; from time to time Landlord may adjust such estimated amount if the estimated operating expenses increase. By April 30th of each year (and as soon as practical after the expiration or termination of this lease or at any time in the event of a sale of the Property), Landlord shall provide Tenant with a statement of the actual amount of such expenses for the preceding calendar year or part thereof. Landlord or Tenant shall pay to the other the amount of any deficiency or overpayment then due from one to the other or, at Landlord's option, Landlord may credit Tenant's account for any overpayment. Tenant's obligation to pay the Annual Operating Expenses pursuant to this Section 7 shall survive the expiration or termination of this lease. (b) Taxes and Other Impositions. Tenant shall pay prior to delinquency all levies, taxes (including sales taxes and gross receipt taxes), assessments, liens, license and permit fees, which are applicable to the Term, and which are imposed by any authority or under any law, ordinance or regulation thereof, or pursuant to any recorded covenants or agreements, and the reasonable cost of contesting any of the foregoing (the "IMPOSITIONS") upon or with respect to the Premises, or any improvements thereto, or directly upon this lease or the Rent (defined in Section 7(f)) or amounts payable by any subtenants or other occupants of the Premises, or against Landlord because of Landlord's estate or interest herein. Additionally, Tenant shall pay as aforesaid its Proportionate Share of any Imposition which is not imposed upon the Premises as a separate entity but which is imposed upon all or part of the Property or upon the leases or rents relating to the Property. (i) Nothing herein contained shall be interpreted as requiring Tenant to pay any income, excess profits or corporate capital stock tax imposed or assessed upon Landlord, unless such tax or any similar tax is levied or assessed in lieu of all or any part of any Imposition or an increase in any Imposition. (ii) If it shall not be lawful for Tenant to reimburse Landlord for any of the Impositions, the Minimum Annual Rent shall be increased by the amount of the portion of such Imposition allocable to Tenant, unless prohibited by law. (c) Insurance. (i) Property. Landlord shall keep in effect, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord its Proportionate Share of the cost of, insurance against loss or damage to the Building or the Property by fire and such other casualties as may be included within fire, extended coverage and special form insurance covering the full replacement cost of the Building (but excluding coverage of Tenant's personal property in, and any alterations by Tenant to, the Premises), and such other insurance as Landlord may reasonably deem appropriate or as may be required from time-to-time by any mortgagee. (ii) Liability. Tenant, at its own expense, shall keep in effect comprehensive general public liability insurance with respect to the Premises and the Property, including contractual liability insurance, with such limits of liability for bodily injury (including death) and property damage as reasonably may be required by Landlord from time-to-time, but not less than a combined single limit of $1,000,000 per occurrence and a general aggregate limit of not less than $3,000,000 (which aggregate limit shall apply separately to each of Tenant's locations if more than the Premises); however, such limits shall not limit the liability of Tenant hereunder. The policy of comprehensive general public liability insurance also shall name Landlord and Landlord's agent as insured parties with respect to the Premises, shall be written on an "occurrence" basis and not on a "claims made" basis, shall provide that it is primary with respect to any policies carried by Landlord and that any coverage carried by Landlord shall be excess insurance, shall provide that it shall not be cancelable or reduced without at least 30 days prior written notice to Landlord and shall be issued in form satisfactory to Landlord. The insurer shall be a responsible insurance carrier which is authorized to issue such insurance and licensed to do business in the state in which the Property is located and which has at all times during the Term a rating of no less than A VII in the most current edition of Best's Insurance Reports. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord on or before the Commencement Date, and subsequently renewals of, a certificate of insurance evidencing such coverage and the waiver of subrogation described below. 3 (iii) Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant shall have included in their respective property insurance policies waivers of their respective insurers' right of subrogation against the other party. If such a waiver should be unobtainable or unenforceable, then such policies of insurance shall state expressly that such policies shall not be invalidated if, before a casualty, the insured waives the right of recovery against any party responsible for a casualty covered by the policy. (iv) Increase of Premiums. Tenant agrees not to do anything or fail to do anything which will increase the cost of Landlord's insurance or which will prevent Landlord from procuring policies (including public liability) from companies and in a form satisfactory to Landlord. If any breach of the preceding sentence by Tenant causes the rate of fire or other insurance to be increased, Tenant shall pay the amount of such increase as additional rent promptly upon being billed. (d) Repairs and Maintenance; Common Areas; Building Management. Except as specifically otherwise provided in this Section (d), Tenant at its sole expense shall maintain the Premises in good order and condition, promptly make all repairs necessary to maintain such condition, and repair any damage to the Premises caused by Tenant or its Agents. All repairs made by Tenant shall utilize materials and equipment which are comparable to those originally used in constructing the Building and Premises. When used in this Section (d), the term "repairs" shall include replacements and renewals when necessary. (i) Landlord, at its sole expense, shall make all necessary repairs to the footings, foundations, structural steel columns and girders forming a part of the Premises, provided that Landlord shall have no responsibility to make any repair until Landlord receives written notice of the need for such repair. (ii) Landlord, at Tenant's sole expense, shall maintain and repair the HVAC systems appurtenant to the Premises. (iii) Landlord shall make all necessary repairs to the root exterior portions of the Premises and the Building, utility and communications lines, equipment and facilities in the Building, which serve more than one tenant, and to the Common Areas. the cost of which shall be an operating expense of which Tenant shall pay its Proportionate Share, provided that Landlord shall have no responsibility to make any repair until Landlord receives written notice of the need for such repair. Landlord shall operate and manage the Property and shall maintain all Common Areas and any paved area appurtenant to the Property in a clean and orderly condition. Landlord reserves the right to make alterations to the Common Areas from time to time. Operating expenses also shall include (A) all sums expended by Landlord for the supervision, maintenance, repair, replacement and operation of the Common Areas (including the costs of utility services), (B) any costs of building improvements made by Landlord to the Property that are required by any governmental authority or for the purpose of reducing operating expenses and (C) a management and administrative fee applicable to the overall operation of the Property. (iv) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, repairs and replacements to the Property including the Premises made necessary by Tenant's use, occupancy or alteration of, or Tenant's installation in or upon the Property or by any act or omission of Tenant or its Agents shall be made at the sole expense of Tenant to the extent not covered by any applicable insurance proceeds paid to Landlord. tenant shall not bear the expense of any repairs or replacements to the Property arising out of or caused by any other tenant's use, occupancy or alteration of, or any other tenant's installation in or upon, the Property or by any act or omission of any other tenant or any other tenant's Agents. (e) Utility Charges. Tenant shall pay for water, sewer, gas, electricity, heat, power, telephone and other communication services and any other utilities supplied to or consumed in or on the Premises. Landlord shall not be responsible or liable for any interruption in utility service, nor shall such interruption affect the continuation or validity of this lease. (f) Net lease. Except for the obligations of Landlord expressly set forth herein, this lease is a "triple net lease" and Landlord shall receive the Minimum Annual Rent as net income from the Premises, not diminished by any expenses other than payments under any mortgages, and Landlord is not and shall not be required to render any services of any kind to Tenant. The term "RENT" as used in this lease means the Minimum Annual Rent, Annual Operating Expenses and any other additional rent or sums payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this lease, all of which shall be deemed rent for purposes of Landlords rights and remedies with respect thereto. Tenant shall pay all Rent to Landlord within 30 days after Tenant is billed, unless otherwise provided in this lease, and interest shall accrue on all sums due but unpaid. 4 8. Signs. Except for signs which are located wholly within the interior of the Premises and not visible from the exterior of the Premises, no signs shall be placed on the Property without the prior written consent of Landlord. All signs installed by Tenant shall be maintained by Tenant in good condition and Tenant shall remove all such signs at the termination of this lease and shall repair any damage caused by such installation, existence or removal. 9. Alterations and Fixtures. (a) Subject to Section 10, Tenant shall have the right to install its trade fixtures in the Premises, provided that no such installation or removal thereof shall affect any structural portion of the Property nor any utility lines, communications lines, equipment or facilities in the Building serving any tenant other than Tenant. At the expiration or termination of this lease and at the option of Landlord or Tenant, Tenant shall remove such installation(s) and, in the event of such removal, Tenant shall repair any damage caused by such installation or removal; if Tenant, with Landlords written consent, elects not to remove such installation(s) at the expiration or termination of this lease, all such installations shall remain on the Property and become the property of Landlord without payment by Landlord. (b) Except for non-structural changes which do not exceed S5000 in the aggregate, Tenant shall not make or permit to be made any alterations to the Premises without Landlord's prior written consent. Tenant shall pay the costs of any required architectural/engineering reviews. In making any alterations, (i) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the plans, specifications and necessary permits, together with certificates evidencing that Tenant's contractors and subcontractors have adequate insurance coverage naming Landlord and Landlord's agent as additional insureds, at least 10 days prior to commencement thereof, (ii) such alterations shall not impair the structural strength of the Building or any other improvements or reduce the value of the Property or affect any utility lines, communications lines, equipment or facilities in the Building serving any tenant other than Tenant, (iii) Tenant shall comply with Section 10 and (iv) the occupants of the Building and of any adjoining property shall not be disturbed thereby. All alterations to the Premises by Tenant shall be the property of Tenant until the expiration or termination of this lease; at that time all such alterations shall remain on the Property and become the property of Landlord without payment by Landlord unless Landlord gives written notice to Tenant to remove the same, in which event Tenant will remove such alterations and repair any resulting damage. At Tenant's request prior to Tenant making any alterations, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing, whether Tenant is required to remove such alterations at the expiration or termination of this lease. 10. Mechanics' Liens. Tenant shall pay promptly any contractors and materialmen who supply labor, work or materials to Tenant at the Property and shall take all steps permitted by law in order to avoid the imposition of any mechanic's lien upon all or any portion of the Property. Should any such lien or notice of lien be filed for work performed for Tenant other than by Landlord, Tenant shall bond against or discharge the same within 5 days after Tenant has notice that the lien or claim is filed regardless of the validity of such lien or claim. Nothing in this lease is intended to authorize Tenant to do or cause any work to be done or materials to be supplied for the account of Landlord, all of the same to be solely for Tenant's account and at Tenant's risk and expense. Throughout this lease the term "mechanic's lien" is used to include any lien, encumbrance or charge levied or imposed upon all or any portion of interest in or income from the Property on account of any mechanic's, laborer's, materialman's or construction lien or arising out of any debt or liability to or any claim of any contractor, mechanic, supplier, materialman or laborer and shall include any mechanic's notice of intention to file a lien given to Landlord or Tenant, any stop order given to Landlord or Tenant, any notice of refusal to pay naming Landlord or Tenant and any injunctive or equitable action brought by any person claiming to be entitled to any mechanic's lien. 11. Landlord's Right of Entry. Tenant shall permit Landlord and its Agents to enter the Premises at all reasonable times following reasonable notice (except in the event of an emergency), for the purpose of inspection, maintenance or making repairs, alterations or additions as well as to exhibit the Premises for the purpose of sale or mortgage and, during the last 12 months of the Term, to exhibit the Premises to any prospective tenant. Landlord will make reasonable efforts not to inconvenience Tenant in exercising the foregoing rights, but shall not be liable for any loss of occupation or quiet enjoyment thereby occasioned. 12. Damage by Fire or Other Casualty. (a) If the Premises or Building shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Tenant promptly shall notify Landlord and Landlord, subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 12, shall repair such damage and restore the Premises to substantially the same condition in which they were immediately prior to such damage or destruction, but not including the repair, restoration or replacement of the fixtures or alterations installed by Tenant. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing, within 30 days after the date of the casualty, if Landlord anticipates that the restoration will take more than 180 days from the date of the casualty to complete; in such event, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this lease effective as of the date of casualty by giving written notice to the other within 10 days after Landlord's notice. Further, if a casualty occurs during the last 12 months of the Term or any extension thereof, Landlord may cancel this lease unless Tenant has the right to extend the Term for at least 3 more years and does so within 30 days after the date of the casualty. 5 (b) Landlord shall maintain a 12 month rental coverage endorsement or other comparable form of coverage as part of its fire, extended coverage and special form insurance. Tenant will receive an abatement of its Minimum Annual Rent and Annual Operating Expenses to the extent the Premises are rendered untenantable as determined by the carrier providing the rental coverage endorsement. 13. Condemnation. (a) Termination. If (i) all of the Premises are taken by a condemnation or otherwise for any public or quasi-public use, (ii) any part of the Premises is so taken and the remainder thereof is insufficient for the reasonable operation of Tenant's business or (iii) any of the Property is so taken, and, in Landlord's opinion, it would be impractical or the condemnation proceeds are insufficient to restore the remainder of the Property, then this lease shall terminate and all unaccrued obligations hereunder shall cease as of the day before possession is taken by the condemnor. (b) Partial Taking. If there is a condemnation and this lease has not been terminated pursuant to this Section, (i) Landlord shall restore the Building and the improvements which are a part of the Premises to a condition and size as nearly comparable as reasonably possible to the condition and size thereof immediately prior to the date upon which the condemnor took possession and (ii) the obligations of Landlord and Tenant shall be unaffected by such condemnation except that there shall be an equitable abatement of the Minimum Annual Rent according to the rental value of the Premises before and after the date upon which the condemnor took possession and/or the date Landlord completes such restoration. (c) Award. In the event of a condemnation affecting Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to make a claim against the condemnor for moving expenses and business dislocation damages to the extent that such claim does not reduce the sums otherwise payable by the condemnor to Landlord. Except as aforesaid and except as set forth in (d) below, Tenant hereby assigns all claims against the condemnor to Landlord. (d) Temporary Taking. No temporary taking of the Premises shall terminate this lease or give Tenant any right to any rental abatement. Such a temporary taking will be treated as if Tenant had sublet the Premises to the condemnor and had assigned the proceeds of the subletting to Landlord to be applied on account of Tenant's obligations hereunder. Any award for such a temporary taking during the Term shall be applied first, to Landlord's costs of collection and, second, on account of sums owing by Tenant hereunder, and if such amounts applied on account of sums owing by Tenant hereunder should exceed the entire amount owing by Tenant for the remainder of the Term, the excess will be paid to Tenant. 14. Non-Abatement of Rent. Except as otherwise expressly provided as to damage by fire or other casualty in Section 12(b) and as to condemnation in Section 13(b), there shall be no abatement or reduction of the Rent for any cause whatsoever, and this lease shall not terminate, and Tenant shall not be entitled to surrender the Premises. 15. Indemnification of Landlord. Subject to Sections 7(c)(iii) and 16, Tenant will protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and its Agents from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liability and expense (including fees of attorneys, investigators and experts) in connection with loss of life, personal injury or damage to property in or about the Premises or arising out of the occupancy or use of the Premises by Tenant or its Agents or occasioned wholly or in part by any act or omission of Tenant or its Agents, whether prior to, during or after the Term, except to the extent such loss, injury or damage was caused by the negligence of Landlord or its Agents. In case any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord and/or its Agents by reason of the foregoing. Tenant, at its expense, shall resist and defend such action or proceeding, or cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel (reasonably acceptable to Landlord and its Agents) designated by the insurer whose policy covers such occurrence or by counsel designated by Tenant and approved by Landlord and its Agents. Tenant's obligations pursuant to this Section 15 shall survive the expiration or termination of this lease. 16. Waiver Of Claims. Landlord and Tenant each hereby waives all claims for recovery against the other for any loss or damage which may be inflicted upon the property of such party even if such loss or damage shall be brought about by the fault or negligence of the other party or its Agents; provided, however, that such waiver by Landlord shall not be effective with respect to any liability of Tenant described in Sections 4(c) and 7(d)(iv). 17. Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants that Tenant, upon performing all of its covenants, agreements and conditions of this lease, shall have quiet and peaceful possession of the Premises as against anyone claiming by or through Landlord, subject, however, to the exceptions, reservations and conditions of this lease. 6 18. Assignment and Subletting. (a) Limitation. Tenant shall not transfer this lease, voluntarily or by operation of law, without the prior written consent of Landlord which shall not be withheld unreasonably. However, Landlord's consent shall not be required in the event of any transfer by Tenant to an affiliate of Tenant which is at least as creditworthy as Tenant as of the date of this lease and provided Tenant delivers to Landlord the instrument described in Section (c)(iii) below, together with a certification of such creditworthiness by Tenant and such affiliate. Any transfer not in conformity with this Section 18 shall be void at the option of Landlord, and Landlord may exercise any or all of its rights under Section 23. A consent to one transfer shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent transfer. "Transfer" shall include any sublease, assignment, license or concession agreement, change in ownership or control of Tenant, mortgage or hypothecation of this lease or Tenant's interest therein or in all or a portion of the Premises. (b) Offer to Landlord. Tenant acknowledges that the terms of this lease, including the Minimum Annual Rent, have been based on the understanding that Tenant physically shall occupy the Premises for the entire Term. Therefore, upon Tenant's request to transfer all or a portion of the Premises, at the option of Landlord, Tenant and Landlord shall execute an amendment to this lease removing such space from the Premises, Tenant shall be relieved of any liability with respect to such space and Landlord shall have the right to lease such space to any party, including Tenant's proposed transferee. (c) Conditions. Notwithstanding the above, the following shall apply to any transfer, with or without Landlords consent: (i) As of the date of any transfer, Tenant shall not be in default under this lease nor shall any act or omission have occurred which would constitute a default with the giving of notice and/or the passage of time. (ii) No transfer shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay the Rent and to perform all its other obligations hereunder. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this lease or to be a consent to any transfer. (iii) Each transfer shall be by a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord which shall (A) include an assumption of liability by any transferee of all Tenants obligations and the transferee's ratification of and agreement to be bound by all the provisions of this lease, (B) afford Landlord the right of direct action against the transferee pursuant to the same remedies as are available to Landlord against Tenant and (C) be executed by Tenant and the transferee. (iv) Tenant shall pay, within 10 days of receipt of an invoice which shall be no less than $250, Landlords reasonable attorneys' fees and costs in connection with the review, processing and documentation of any transfer for which Landlord's consent is requested. 19. Subordination; Mortgagee's Rights. (a) This lease shall be subordinate to any first mortgage or other primary encumbrance now or hereafter affecting the Premises. Although the subordination is self-operative, within 10 days after written request, Tenant shall execute and deliver any further instruments confirming such subordination of this lease and any further instruments of attornment that may be desired by any such mortgagee or Landlord. However, any mortgagee may at any time subordinate its mortgage to this lease, without Tenant's consent, by giving written notice to Tenant, and thereupon this lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage without regard to their respective dates of execution and delivery, provided, however, that such subordination shall not affect any mortgagee's right to condemnation awards, casualty insurance proceeds, intervening Hens or any right which shall arise between the recording of such mortgage and the execution of this lease. (b) It is understood and agreed that any mortgagee shall not be liable to Tenant for any funds paid by Tenant to Landlord unless such funds actually have been transferred to such mortgagee by Landlord.

(b) Tenant shall furnish to Landlord, Landlord's mortgagee, prospective mortgagee or purchaser reasonably requested financial information. 21. Surrender; Abandoned Property. (a) Subject to the terms of Sections 9(b), 12(a) and 13(b), at the expiration or termination of this lease, Tenant promptly shall yield up in the same condition, order and repair in which they are required to be kept throughout the Term, the Premises and all improvements thereto, and all fixtures and equipment servicing the Building, ordinary wear and tear excepted. (b) Upon or prior to the expiration or termination of this lease, Tenant shall remove any personal property from the Property.

If any part thereof shall be sold, then Landlord may receive and retain the proceeds of such sale and apply the same, at its option, against the expenses of the sale, the cost of moving and storage and any Rent due under this lease. (c) If Tenant, or any person claiming through Tenant, shall continue to occupy the Premises after the expiration or termination of this lease or any renewal thereof, such occupancy shall be deemed to be under a month-to-month tenancy under the same terms and conditions set forth in this lease, except that the monthly installment of the Minimum Annual Rent during such continued occupancy shall be double the amount applicable to the last month of the Term. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, any holding over by Tenant without Landlord's prior written consent shall constitute a default hereunder and shall be subject to all the remedies available to Landlord. 22. Curing Tenant's Defaults. If Tenant shall be in default in the performance of any of its obligations hereunder, Landlord, without any obligation to do so, in addition to any other rights it may have in law or equity, may elect to cure such default on behalf of Tenant after written notice (except in the case of emergency) to Tenant. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any sums paid or costs incurred by Landlord in curing such default, including interest thereon from the respective dates of Landlord's incurring such costs, which sums and costs together with interest shall be deemed additional rent. 23. Defaults - Remedies. (a) Defaults. It shall be an event of default: (i) If Tenant does not pay in full when due any and all Rent; (ii) If Tenant fails to observe and perform or otherwise breaches any other provision of this lease; (iii) If Tenant abandons the Premises, which shall be conclusively presumed if the Premises remain unoccupied for more than 10 consecutive days, or removes or attempts to remove Tenant's goods or property other than in the ordinary course of business; or (iv) If Tenant becomes insolvent or bankrupt in any sense or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or offers a settlement to creditors, or if a petition in bankruptcy or for reorganization or for an arrangement with creditors under any federal or state law is filed by or against Tenant, or a bill in equity or other proceeding for the appointment of a receiver for any of Tenant's assets is commenced, or if any of the real or personal property of Tenant shall be levied upon, provided, however, that any proceeding brought by anyone other than Landlord or Tenant under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law shall not constitute a default until such proceeding has continued unstayed for more than 60 consecutive days. (b) Remedies. Then, and in any such event, Landlord shall have the following rights: (i) To charge a late payment fee equal to the greater of $100 or 5% of any amount owed to Landlord pursuant to this lease which is not paid within 5 days after the due date. 8 (ii) To enter and repossess the Premises, by breaking open locked doors if necessary, and remove all persons and all or any property therefrom, by action at law or otherwise, without being liable for prosecution or damages therefor, and Landlord may, at Landlord's option, make alterations and repairs in order to relet the Premises and relet all or any part(s) of the Premises for Tenant's account. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord on demand any deficiency that may arise by reason of such reletting. In the event of reletting without termination of this lease, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this lease for such previous breach. (iii) To accelerate the whole or any part of the Rent for the balance of the Term, and declare the same to be immediately due and payable. (iv) To terminate this lease and the Term without any right on the part of Tenant to save the forfeiture by payment of any sum due or by other performance of any condition, term or covenant broken. (c) Grace Period. Notwithstanding anything hereinabove stated, neither party will exercise any available right because of any default of the other, except those remedies contained in subsection (b)(i) of this Section, unless such party shall have first given 10 days written notice thereof to the defaulting party, and the defaulting party shall have failed to cure the default within such period, provided, however, that: (i) No such notice shall be required if Tenant fails to comply with the provisions of Sections 10 or 20(a), in the case of emergency as set forth in Section 22 or in the event of any default enumerated in subsections (a)(iii) and (iv) of this Section. (ii) Landlord shall not be required to give such 10 days notice more than 2 times during any 12 month period. (iii) If the default consists of something other than the failure to pay money which cannot reasonably be cured within 10 days, neither party will exercise any right if the defaulting party begins to cure the default within the 10 days and continues actively and diligently in good faith to completely cure said default. (iv) Tenant agrees that any notice given by Landlord pursuant to this Section which is served in compliance with Section 27 shall be adequate notice for the purpose of Landlord's exercise of any available remedies. (d) Non-Waiver, Non-Exclusive. No waiver by Landlord of any breach by Tenant shall be a waiver of any subsequent breach, nor shall any forbearance by Landlord to seek a remedy for any breach by Tenant be a waiver by Landlord of any rights and remedies with respect to such or any subsequent breach. Efforts by Landlord to mitigate the damages caused by Tenant's default shall not constitute a waiver of Landlord's right to recover damages hereunder. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy provided herein or by law, but each shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right or remedy given herein or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No payment by Tenant or receipt or acceptance by Landlord of a lesser amount than the total amount due Landlord under this lease shall be deemed to be other than on account, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of Rent due, or Landlords right to pursue any other available remedy. (e) Costs and Attorneys' Fees. If either party commences an action against the other party arising out of or in connection with this lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have and recover from the losing party attorneys' fees, costs of suit, investigation expenses and discovery costs, including costs of appeal. 24.

Options to Extend Term. Provided that Landlord has not given Tenant notice of default more than two (2) times in the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the Expiration Date, and that there then exists no event of default by Tenant under this lease Tenant shall have the right and option to extend the Term for one (1) additional period of sixty (60) months and one (1) additional period of fifty-four (54) months thereafter, exercisable by giving Landlord prior written notice, at least twelve (12) months in advance of the Expiration Date or the first extended Expiration Date, as the case may be, of Tenant's election to extend the Term; it being agreed that time is of the essence and that these options are personal to Tenant and any assignee for whom Landlord's consent is not required under subsection 18(a) and are non-transferable to any other assignee or any sublessee (regardless of whether any such assignment or sublease was made with or without Landlord's consent) or other party. Any such extension shall be under the same terms and conditions as provided in this lease except as follows: (a) the first additional period shall begin on the Expiration Date and thereafter the Expiration Date shall be deemed to be the date which is sixty (60) months after the Expiration Date, and the second additional period shall begin on the first extended Expiration Date and thereafter the Expiration Date shall be deemed to be the date which is fifty-four (54) months after the first extended Expiration Date; (b) there shall be no further options to extend; and (c) The minimum annual rent for the first year of each additional term shall be equal to the greater of (i) the minimum annual rent then being paid by Tenant hereunder, or (ii) the fair market rental value of the Premises, determined pursuant to subsection (d) hereof. The minimum annual rent for each year of each additional term after the first year of such additional term shall increase by 2% over the minimum annual rent paid by Tenant in the immediately preceding lease year. R-3 (d) For purposes of this Section 31, if Landlord and Tenant cannot agree as to the fair market rental value within ninety (90) days after receipt of Tenant's notice to Landlord under subsection 31(a), the fair market rental value shall be determined by appraisal, which, if Tenant has received a rent reduction pursuant to subsection 65(a) of this Rider, shall take into consideration, among other things, the necessity for Tenant's Agents to use the Off-Site Parking (as hereinafter defined). Within ten (10) days after the expiration of such ninety (90) day period, Landlord and Tenant shall give written notice to the other setting forth the name and address of an appraiser designated by the party giving notice. All appraisers selected shall be members of the American Institution of Real Estate Appraisers and shall have had at least ten (10) years continuous experience in the business of appraising office buildings in the greater Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area. If either party shall fail to give notice of such designation within the time period provided, then the party who has designated its appraiser (the "Designating Party") shall notify the other party (the "Non-Designating Party") in writing that the Non-Designating Party has an additional ten (10) days to give notice of its designation, otherwise the appraiser, if any, designated by the Designating Party shall conclusively determine the fair market rental value. If two appraisers have been designated, such appraisers shall attempt to agree upon the fair market rental value. If the two appraisers do not agree on the fair market rental value within twenty (20) days of their designation, the two appraisers shall designate a third appraiser. If the two appraisers shall fail to agree upon the identity of a third appraiser within five (5) business days following the end of such twenty (20) day period, then either Landlord or Tenant may apply to the American Arbitration Association, or any successor thereto having jurisdiction, for the settlement of the dispute as to the designation of the third appraiser and the American Arbitration Association shall designate a third appraiser in accordance with the Real Estate Valuation Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The three appraisers shall conduct such hearings as they may deem appropriate, shall make their determination of fair market rental value in writing and shall give notice to Landlord and Tenant of such determination within twenty (20) days after the appointment of the third appraiser. If the three appraisers cannot agree upon the fair market rental value, each appraiser shall submit in writing to Landlord and Tenant the fair market rental value as determined by such appraiser. The fair market rental value for the purposes of this paragraph shall be equal to the arithmetic average of the two closest fair market rental values submitted by the appraisers. Each party shall pay its own fees and expenses in connection with any appraiser selected by such party under this paragraph, and the parties shall share equally all other expenses and fees of the arbitration, including the fees and expenses charged by the third appraiser. The fair market rental value as determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant. 32. Right of First Refusal. (a) In the event Tenant requires additional space for the conduct of its business, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of its space needs ("Tenant's Space Notice"). Thereafter, for a period of six (6) months from the date of Landlord's receipt of Tenant's Space Notice, subject to the following provisions of this Section, provided that Landlord has not given Tenant notice of default more than two (2) times during the immediately preceding twelve (12) months, and that there then exists no event of default by Tenant under this lease, Tenant shall have the right of first refusal as to any available space in excess of 5,000 square feet in 100 Witmer Road, 104 Witmer Road, 101-111 Rock Road, 104 Rock Road, 113-123 Rock Road and 123-125 Rock Road (individually the "ROFR Space") on the terms set forth in this Section 32; provided such right with respect to any ROFR Space is only effective so long as Landlord or an affiliate of Landlord continues to own both the Building and the building in which such ROFR Space is located. R-4 (b) Subject to the prior rights of existing tenants, if a person or entity, other than the tenant then in occupancy thereof, desires to lease space which includes any ROFR Space (the "Offered Space") and Landlord submits a proposal in connection therewith, Landlord shall provide Tenant with written notification of the material business terms contained therein (the "Offer Notice"). Within five (5) business days after Tenant's receipt of such Offer Notice, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether it intends to lease the Offered Space and Tenant's failure to so notify Landlord shall be deemed a waiver of Tenant's right to lease the Offered Space at such time and shall permit Landlord to lease the Offered Space to the prospective tenant. In the event Tenant notifies Landlord that it desires to lease the Offered Space as set forth above ("Tenant's Notification"), Landlord and Tenant shall enter into a lease for the Offered Space on the terms set forth in the Offer Notice and the terms and conditions contained in this lease which are not inconsistent with the Offer Notice. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant's obligations hereunder. In the event that Tenant does not timely deliver Tenant's Notification or enter into a lease for the Offered Space within 10 days after receipt thereof from Landlord, Tenant's right of first refusal with respect to the Offered Space shall be null and void and Landlord shall have the right to lease the Offered Space to the prospective tenant. (c) This right of first refusal to lease the ROFR Space is a continuing right if and when each ROFR Space becomes available during the six (6) month term of any Tenant Space Notice, is personal to Tenant and any assignee of Tenant as to whom Tenant is permitted to transfer this lease without Landlord's prior consent pursuant to subsection 18(a), and, except as specifically set forth in this subsection (c), is non-transferable to any other assignee or sublessee (regardless of whether any such assignment or sublease was made with or without Landlord's consent) or other party.

Neither party shall be responsible to the other for any losses resulting from the failure to perform any terms or provisions of this lease not involving the payment of money if the party's failure to perform is attributable to war, riot, Acts of God or the elements or any other unavoidable act not within the control of the party whose performance is interfered with and which by reasonable diligence such party is unable to prevent ("Force Majeure"). 65. Parking. (a) Landlord shall provide 162 exclusive parking spaces for use by Tenant for the Term of the lease. The Property presently contains 114 parking spaces. Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly apply for and diligently seek to obtain required approvals and permits from Horsham Township (the "Township") for implementation of the proposed parking plan attached hereto as Exhibit "J-1" (the "Proposed Parking Plan"), including a Connector (as hereinafter defined) between the Property and 104 Rock Road. R-24 (b) In the event the Proposed Parking is approved by the Township, Landlord will provide for Tenant 129 parking spaces on the Property and off-site parking (the "Off-Site Parking") for 25 cars at 104 Rock Road in the location shown on the Proposed Parking Plan and 8 cars at 101 Rock Road in the location shown on the Proposed Parking Plan. 101 Rock Road and 104 Rock Road are hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Off-Site Parking Properties". (c) In the event the Proposed Parking Plan is not approved by the Township, Landlord will provide not fewer than 114 parking spaces on the Property and the balance of the parking spaces at the Off-Site Parking Properties in the locations shown on the alternate parking plan attached hereto as Exhibit "J-2" (the "Alternate Parking Plan"); provided that, at Landlord's election, all of the off-site spaces may be moved to either or both of the Off-Site Parking Properties in the locations shown on the Alternate Parking Plan. In the event the Alternate Parking Plan is implemented, Landlord shall apply for and use diligent efforts to seek to obtain approval by the Township of driveways connecting the parking lot of the Property with the parking lots of the Off-Site Parking Properties (the "Connectors"). If such approval is obtained, Landlord shall construct the Connectors. (d) In the event Tenant, in its good faith judgment, determines that other tenants of either of the Off-Site Parking Properties unreasonably interfere with Tenant's exclusive parking spaces thereon, Tenant shall notify Landlord thereof in writing and provide specific examples thereof and if Landlord is unable to cure such interference within a reasonable period of time, Landlord shall, at Landlord's sole cost and expense, mark Tenant's exclusive spaces, by signage or painting, as reserved for Tenant. Except as aforesaid, Landlord shall have no obligation to police or enforce the use of Tenant's exclusive spaces. (e) In the event (i) the Proposed Parking Plan is not approved by the Township on or before the later of (A) thirty (30) months after the Commencement Date or (B) six (6) months after the date Tenant, in good faith, notifies Landlord in writing that the number of employees then working at the Premises is such that parking spaces in excess of those available on the Property are required in order for Tenant to reasonably conduct business at the Premises, and (ii) the parking lot of the Property is not then connected by Connectors to all of the Off-Site Properties on which parking spaces for Tenant's use are then located, Minimurn Annual Rent for the remainder of the initial Term shall be reduced by the percentage determined by multiplying .00125 by the number of Off-Site Parking Spaces in excess of eight (8) in lots which are not connected to the parking lot of the Property by a Connector. For example, if there are 48 Off-Site Parking Spaces on the Off-Site Properties which are not connected by Connectors, the percentage reduction of Minimum Annual Rent for the remainder of the initial Term would be 5% (48 spaces minus 8 spaces = 40 spaces multiplied by .00125 = 5%). As a further example, if there are 48 Off-Site Parking Spaces of which 24 are in a lot connected to the Property by a Connector, the percentage reduction in Minimum Annual Rent for the remainder of the initial Term would be 2% (24 spaces minus 8 spaces = 16 spaces multiplied by .00125 = 2%). If Tenant is entitled to a reduction in Minimum Annual Rent hereunder, the parties shall promptly execute an amendment to this lease effectuating same. R-25 66. Tenant's Rights to Terminate Lease. (a) Tenant shall have the right to terminate this lease by written notice delivered to Landlord on or before the date which is thirty (30) days after execution of this lease in the event either of the following conditions is not satisfied: (i) Tenant shall not have received a zoning and use permit (the "Zoning and Use Permit") from the Township confirming that Tenant may utilize the Premises for the Use set forth in Section I (f) of the lease. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that it has filed with the Township a written and complete application for the Zoning and Use Permit and will seek to obtain same diligently and in good faith within the thirty (30) day contingency period. (ii) Tenant shall not have received a building permit (the "Building Permit") from the Township for the work to be performed by Tenant pursuant to the Plans and Specifications solely as a result of (i) the Township not having approved Landlord's stormwater management plan for the Pennsylvania Business Campus, or (ii) the number of parking spaces on the Premises failing to meet requirements of the Township zoning ordinance. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that (A) it has obtained written approval of the Plans from the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry and filed with the Township a written and complete application for the Building Permit, except for stamped Plans which it covenants will be filed with the Township on or before February 22, 2002. Tenant further covenants that it will seek to obtain the Building Permit diligently and in good faith within the thirty (30) day contingency period. (b) In the event Tenant does not deliver written notice of termination of this lease to Landlord within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived its rights to terminate this lease under this Section 66 and this Section 66 shall be null and void and of no further force or effect. (c) Landlord shall have no obligation to agree to extend the thirty (30) day contingency periods set forth herein. R-26
