Term. The Term shall be for the Term set forth in Section G of the Preamble above, unless sooner terminated under the terms and conditions of this Sublease.

Permitted Uses. Subtenant shall use and occupy the Subleased Premises for the Permitted Uses only. Sublandlord makes no representations or warranties to Subtenant as to the suitability of the Subleased Premises for the Permitted Uses.

Base Rent and Additional Rent.

(a)Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord at such place or method as Sublandlord may designate, (i) Base Rent (and any Additional Rent, as applicable), by the first (1^st) day of each calendar month during the Term, without demand by Sublandlord, and (ii) any other Additional Rent and other sums and charges by the fifteenth (15^th) day after Subtenant receives a written statement therefor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord, on the execution of this Sublease, the Initial Amount, which sum shall be credited against the first monthly installment(s) of Base Rent becoming due and payable under this Sublease. Any delay or failure of Sublandlord in billing for any Additional Rent hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of, or in any way impair, the continuing obligation of Subtenant to pay Additional Rent.

(b)The utilities for the Subleased Premises are currently separately metered. Beginning on the Commencement Date, Subtenant shall place all separately metered utilities in Subtenant’s name and pay all charges for all separately billed gas, electricity, telephone and other utility services used, rendered or supplied upon or in connection with the Subleased Premises and shall indemnify Sublandlord and Landlord against liability or damage on such account. The costs of any utilities related to the Subleased Premises which are not separately metered shall be the responsibility of the Subtenant and will be billed to Subtenant by Sublandlord.

(c)In addition to Base Rent, it is understood and agreed that Subtenant shall also pay to Sublandlord as Additional Rent Subtenant’s Proportionate Share of all Operating Expenses and Taxes which Sublandlord is obligated to pay to Landlord pursuant to the Lease.

(d)The mechanics for the billing by Sublandlord to Subtenant, and the payment by Subtenant to Sublandlord of the Additional Rent, shall be the same as the billing by Landlord to Sublandlord, appropriately adapted. Upon request by Subtenant, Sublandlord shall make available to Subtenant any documentation provided by Landlord to the extent the same relates to the calculation and billing of Additional Rent hereunder.

(e)Subtenant does hereby covenant and agree to pay the Base Rent, Additional Rent and other sums or charges which may become due and payable hereunder, as and when the same shall become due and payable, without any set-off or deduction whatsoever, and to keep and perform, and to permit no violation of, each and every of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions herein contained on the part and on behalf of Subtenant to be kept and performed.

(f)If, by reason of any of the provisions of this Sublease, the term of this Sublease shall commence (or any due date for payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent and other sums and charges shall occur) on any day other than the first day of a calendar month or end on any day other than the last day of a calendar month, Base Rent and Additional Rent (if applicable) for such calendar month shall be prorated.

(g)If Subtenant shall fail to pay any installment of Base Rent or any Additional Rent or other charges when first due hereunder, interest shall accrue thereon at the greater of (i) the annual rate of four (4) percentage points over the then prime interest rate being charged from time to time by Citibank, N.A. to its corporate customers from and after the date on which any such sum was first due and payable hereunder, beyond the expiration of any applicable grace periods (ii) the interest rate paid by the Sublandlord in accordance with Section 12.3 of the Lease, but in no event shall such rate exceed the maximum rate permitted by law, and such interest shall be deemed to accrue as Additional Rent hereunder and shall be paid to Sublandlord upon demand made from time to time.

(h)Subtenant shall pay all rent or occupancy taxes due in respect of this Sublease during the term hereof (if applicable).

Security Deposit. Subtenant shall deposit with Sublandlord upon the execution of this Sublease a cash security deposit (the “Security Deposit”) in the amount set forth in Section I of the Preamble above as security for the faithful performance and observance by Subtenant of the terms, conditions, covenants and provisions of this Sublease, including without limitation the surrender of possession of the Subleased Premises to Sublandlord as herein provided. The Security Deposit is not required to be held by Sublandlord in a segregated account and any interest earned on the Security Deposit shall be the exclusive property of Sublandlord. The Security Deposit shall not be mortgaged, assigned, transferred or encumbered by Subtenant without the prior written consent of Sublandlord, which consent may be withheld or conditioned in Sublandlord’s sole discretion, and any such act on the part of Subtenant without Sublandlord’s prior written consent shall be without force and effect and shall not be binding upon Sublandlord. If any item of Base Rent or Additional Rent herein reserved or any other sum payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord shall be overdue and unpaid, after notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period, or if Sublandlord shall make payments on behalf of Subtenant in accordance with the provisions of this Sublease or if Subtenant fails to perform any of the terms and conditions of this Sublease, after notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period, then Sublandlord may, at its sole option and without prejudice to any other remedy which Sublandlord may have on account thereof, appropriate and apply the Security Deposit (or so much thereof as may be necessary) to compensate Sublandlord toward the payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other sum payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord or loss or damage sustained by Sublandlord due to such breach on the part of Subtenant, as the case may be, and Subtenant shall, within five (5) calendar days after written demand therefor, restore the Security Deposit to the original sum deposited. The Security Deposit, or such amount that is remaining, shall be returned in full to Subtenant at the end of the term of this Sublease when Subtenant has surrendered possession of the Subleased Premises to Sublandlord in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein. In the event of bankruptcy or other creditor-debtor proceedings against Subtenant, the Security Deposit shall be deemed to be applied first to the payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges due Sublandlord for all periods prior to the filing of such proceedings. The Security Deposit shall not constitute liquidated damages. Sublandlord, and its successors and assigns, may deliver the Security Deposit to any purchaser of Sublandlord’s interest in the Subleased Premises in the event that Sublandlord’s interest is sold, and thereupon Sublandlord shall be discharged from any further liability with respect to the Security Deposit, and Subtenant shall look solely to such purchaser for the return of the Security Deposit.

Subordination. This Sublease is subject and subordinate to the Lease and to all superior leases and superior mortgages (as such terms are defined in the Lease) to which the Lease is subject and subordinate. Neither Subtenant nor Sublandlord shall (i) take any action inconsistent with the terms of the Lease, (ii) do or permit to be done anything prohibited under the Lease or (iii) take any action or do or permit anything which would result in any additional cost or expense or other liability being incurred by the other party under the provisions of the Lease. This section shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination, Subtenant shall execute promptly any certificate that Sublandlord may reasonably request. In addition, Subtenant acknowledges that this Sublease and its rights hereunder are subject and subordinate to all matters, including, without limitation, liens, encumbrances, easements, covenants and restrictions which currently affect the Building and/or the Subleased Premises.

Incorporation of Lease. Except to the extent that they are inapplicable to, or are deleted or modified by the terms of this Sublease, all of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of the Lease are hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Sublease and shall be binding upon the parties hereto except as otherwise provided in this Sublease and such rights and obligations as are contained in the Lease are hereby imposed upon the respective parties hereto, the Sublandlord herein being substituted for the landlord named in the Lease, the Subtenant herein being substituted for the tenant named in the Lease and, where applicable, the term Sublease being substituted for the term Lease. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all acts and obligations to be performed and all of the terms and conditions to be observed by Sublandlord as tenant under the Lease shall be performed and observed by Subtenant, and Subtenant's obligations shall run to Sublandlord and Landlord as Sublandlord may determine to be appropriate or required by the respective interests of Sublandlord and Landlord. Subtenant shall not in any event have any rights in respect of the Subleased Premises greater than Sublandlord’s rights under the Lease, and, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, as to obligations contained in this Sublease by the incorporation by reference of the provisions of the Lease, Sublandlord shall not be required to make any payment or perform any obligation, and Sublandlord shall have no liability to Subtenant for any matter whatsoever, except for Sublandlord’s obligation to pay the rent and additional rent due under the Lease and for Sublandlord’s obligation to use reasonable efforts, upon request of Subtenant, but at the sole cost and expense of Subtenant, to cause Landlord to observe and/or perform its obligations under the Lease, provided that in the event that Subtenant determines in good faith that Landlord has not performed its obligations under the Lease, including, but not limited to, the provision of Building services described in the Lease, then upon receipt of written notice from Subtenant, Sublandlord shall be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such breaches, defaults or failures of Landlord under the Lease to be resolved or otherwise settled to Subtenant’s reasonable satisfaction; provided, further however, that Sublandlord shall not have any obligation to commence litigation or other dispute resolution proceedings to cause Landlord to comply with the Lease unless Subtenant cannot do so in its own name, in which event Sublandlord shall do so at Subtenant’s expense. Except to the extent due to the intentional misconduct or gross negligence of Sublandlord, Sublandlord shall not be responsible for any failure or interruption, for any reason whatsoever, of the services or facilities that may be appurtenant to or supplied at the Building by Landlord or otherwise, including, without limitation, heat, air-conditioning, water and electric service; and no failure to furnish, or interruption of, any such services or facilities shall give rise to any: (i) abatement, diminution or reduction of Subtenant’s obligations under this Sublease, (ii) constructive eviction, whether in whole or in part, or (iii) liability on the part of Sublandlord. In the event that any term and/or condition of this Sublease shall conflict with, or be inconsistent with, any term and/or condition of the Lease (other than those terms and conditions that are specifically modified under this Sublease), or if exercised hereunder would constitute a default under, or breach of, the Lease, this Sublease shall be deemed amended to comply, or be consistent with, the Lease. The foregoing notwithstanding, if any breach of the Lease shall entitle Sublandlord to assert claims for an abatement of rent for constructive eviction or otherwise, then such abatement shall (if legally possible) accrue in favor of Subtenant. If Sublandlord shall be entitled to an abatement rent or other

claims arising from fire or other casualty, then Subtenant shall have the same claims. Further notwithstanding anything in this Sublease or the Lease to the contrary, Subtenant shall have no obligations for, or any liability with respect to, (x) any acts or omissions of Sublandlord under the Lease, or conditions pertaining to the Subleased Premises, first arising or accruing prior to the Commencement Date, (y) any Sublandlord breaches under the Lease, or (iii) any Sublandlord negligence or willful misconduct.

(a)Subtenant agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Sublease or in the Lease (including, without limitation, the incorporation by reference language contained in this Sublease), (i) Sublandlord shall not be required to provide any of the services, make any of the repairs, improvements or restorations, or perform any of the other obligations that Landlord has agreed to provide or make or cause to be provided or made under the provisions of the Lease, including, without limitation, repairs, utilities and cleaning (any such services, repairs, improvements, restorations or other obligations being hereinafter collectively referred to as "Landlord Services"), and (ii) Landlord shall not be required, under the terms of the Lease, this Sublease and any consent to this Sublease, to provide directly to Subtenant any Landlord Services; provided, however, that upon the reasonable request of Subtenant, Sublandlord agrees to request, in Sublandlord's name, for Landlord to provide any Landlord Services which Subtenant shall desire, any additional charge for which shall be paid by Subtenant to Sublandlord as Additional Rent hereunder.

(b)The parties hereto agree that the time limits set forth in the Lease for the giving of notices to Subtenant, or the making of demands, performance of any act, condition or covenant, or the exercise of any right, remedy or option, by Subtenant shall be modified for the purposes of this Sublease, by shortening the same in each instance with respect to Subtenant by three (3) days; provided, however, in the event (i) such notices, demands or other actions depend upon the receipt by Sublandlord of a written notice from Landlord and (ii) Sublandlord promptly notifies Subtenant after receipt of Landlord's notice, such time limits may be further shortened to require Subtenant to perform any act or remedy or any condition at least three (3) business days prior to the expiration of the time limit within which Sublandlord must perform under the terms of the Lease. Such time limits set forth in the Lease relating to activities of Landlord shall be modified for purposes of this Sublease by lengthening same in each instance with respect to Sublandlord by three (3) business days. Subtenant shall, no later than three (3) business days after receipt thereof, give to Sublandlord a copy of any notice, demand or other communication received from Landlord relating to the Subleased Premises.

(c)Whenever the consent or approval of Sublandlord shall be required pursuant to the provisions of this Sublease, including the Lease, such requirement shall be deemed to mean the consent or approval of Sublandlord and Landlord. If Landlord, for any reason whatsoever, shall fail to grant its consent or approval to anything or matter, Sublandlord shall not be required to grant its consent or approval. If Landlord grants its consent or approval to anything or matter, Sublandlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to same. Sublandlord shall promptly forward to Landlord any requests made by Subtenant for Landlord's consent.

(d)Subtenant agrees that (i) any indemnities, waivers or releases contained in the Lease shall run to both Sublandlord and Landlord, and (ii) any certificates to be delivered under the Lease shall name both Sublandlord and Landlord.

(e)For the purposes of this Sublease, the Lease shall be further deemed modified as follows: the Excluded Sections of the Lease shall not be deemed applicable to this Sublease.

In addition to and without limiting Sublandlord’s rights and remedies as set forth herein, in the event Subtenant shall be in default in the payment of Base Rent or Additional Rent and shall remain in default for a period of ten (10) days, Sublandlord shall have the right to offset the full amount owed from any other payment owed by Sublandlord to Subtenant (or to any owner of Subtenant) pursuant to this Sublease or to any other arrangement between Sublandlord and Subtenant or Subtenant’s owner(s), as applicable.

(b)If Subtenant shall at any time fail to make any payment or perform any other obligation of Subtenant hereunder, then Sublandlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, after ten (10) days’ notice to Subtenant, or without notice to Subtenant in the case of any emergency, and without waiving or releasing Subtenant from any obligations of Subtenant hereunder, to make such payment or perform such other obligation of Subtenant in such manner and to such extent as Sublandlord shall deem necessary, and in exercising any such right, to pay any incidental costs and expenses, employ attorneys and incur and pay reasonable attorneys’ fees. Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord upon demand all sums so paid by Sublandlord and all incidental costs and expenses of Sublandlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum or any part thereof or the then maximum rate of interest which may lawfully be collected from Subtenant, whichever shall be less, from the date of the making of such expenditures.
