1. LEASED PREMISES:
1 .1 In consideration of the mutual covenants herein, Lessor hereby leases to
Lessee and Lessee hereby hires from Lessor subject to all the Terms and
Conditions hereinafter set forth those certain Premises hereinafter
sometimes called the "Leased Premises" in the buildings known as 4295 &
4299 SAN ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ALSO KNOWN AS HERITAGE BANK CENTER (herein called the
"Building") located in Houston, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ County, Texas, such Premises being
more particularly described as follows:
3,820 SQUARE FEET OF NET RENTABLE AREA ("SFNRA")
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ #▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇
as reflected on the floor plan of such Premises attached hereto and made
a part hereof as Exhibit "B". The real property upon which the Building
is constructed is described on Exhibit "A", attached hereto, and made a
part hereof (the "Real Property").
1.2 In the event of any expansion of Lessee's Leased Premises, the
measurement of any additional space shall be based upon the floorplans
included as Exhibit "B", shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties
hereto, and an "add-on factor" of 1.16 shall apply.
1.3 The NRA in the Leased Premises is hereby stipulated for purposes of this
lease to be 3,820 SF of NRA, whether the same should be more or less or a
result of minor variations resulting from actual construction and
completion of the leased premises for occupancy so long as such work is
in accordance with terms and provisions hereof. In all calculations,
Lessor represents to Lessee that the Building has 89,000 net rentable
square feet, and the Lessee occupies 4.3% of the Building.
2. TERMS:
2.1 Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, this Lease
shall continue in force for a term of Sixty (60) Months, beginning on
July 1, 1999 and ending June 30, 2004.
It is expressly understood that this lease is a valid and binding
obligation of both Lessor and Lessee as of the date of execution
with the term to commence as set above.
2.2 Lessor, at Lessor's cost, shall perform the improvements delineated on
the floorplan of the space which shall be attached hereto as Exhibit
"B". Lessor shall deliver the completed space to Lessee for occupancy on
or before June 1, 1999. Lessor agrees that Lessee may move its
possessions into the Leased Premises upon execution of this Lease
Agreement. Any above building standard items, or changes or additions
to Exhibit "B" which are requested by Lessee subsequent to the execution
of the Lease, shall be made by Lessor, but shall be made at the sole
cost of Lessee, who shall make payment for such items before it
occupies the Leased Premises.
3. USE:
3.1 The Leased Premises are to be used and occupied by Lessee solely for the
purpose of office space and for no other purpose whatsoever, without the
express prior written consent of Lessor which shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or the
provisions of Paragraph 21.1, the Leased Premises shall not be used at
any time or in any manner for any matter related in any way to the
conduct or operation of a pornographic bookstore, movie theater dance or
night club featuring nude or partially nude performers or employees, or
any other sexually explicit business.
4. BASE RENTAL:
4.1 Lessee hereby agrees to pay during the initial term hereof a base annual
rental herein called ("Base Rental") as provided for in the Addendum of
this Lease. Lessee shall also pay, as additional rent during the initial
term hereof all other sums of money as shall become due and payable by
Lessee to Lessor under this Lease. The Lessor shall have the same
remedies of default for the payment of additional rent as are available
to Lessor in the case of a default in the payment of Base Rental. Such
Base Rental, together with any adjustments of rent provided for herein
then in effect, shall be due and payable in twelve (12) equal
installments on the first day of each calendar month during the Lease
Term.
4.2 Lessee hereby agrees to pay the Base Rental to Lessor at Lessor's address
as provided herein monthly in advance without demand. Other remedies for
nonpayment of rent notwithstanding, if the Base Rental is not received by
the Landlord on or before the tenth day of the month for which rent is
due, a late charge in the amount of five percent (5%) of all past due
amounts owed on such date, shall become due and payable in addition to
the Base Rental owed under this Lease. Said late charge is intended to
defray the costs incurred by Landlord as a result of handling and
collecting such late payment, and will not be charged as either a penalty
or as interest on past due amounts.
5. BASE RENTAL ADJUSTMENT:
5.1 The Base Rental Adjustment shall be calculated in the following
manner:
5.1.1 For the purpose of this Lease, Lessee's Base Rental includes an
expense component applicable to Lessee's prorata share of base year
"Basic Costs" (hereinafter defined) equal to the 1999 actual operating
expenses of the total Net Rentable Area of the Building, adjusted as
provided in 5.1.2, below.
5.1.2 Within 120 days from the end of each calendar year, Lessor shall
deliver to Lessee an operating statement of Lessor's actual Basic Costs
for said year. In the event the Building is not 100% occupied during any
year of the lease term, an adjustment shall be made in computing the
Basic Cost for such year so that the Basic Cost shall be computed for
such year as though the Building had been 95% occupied for an entire
year.
5.1.3 In the event that the Actual Basic Costs for the previous calendar
year exceed that set out in paragraph 5.1.1, i.e. the Basic Costs for
calendar year 1999, Lessee shall pay to Lessor within thirty days of
receipt of a Statement from Lessor reciting any rental adjustment due,
Lessee's share of such excess, whether or not this Lease shall then be in
effect, without reduction or set off, as additional rent over and above
the Base Rental.
5.2 At the time the operating statement for the previous year is delivered to
Lessee, Lessor shall also deliver a Basic Cost Expense Estimate for the
then current year, based on reasonable escalations from the previous
year's expenses. This delivery shall be incumbent on Lessor for each
year of the remaining term of the Lease.
5.2.1 Lessee shall pay Lessor the increase between the calendar year
1999 actual Basic Costs and the current operating year Basic Cost Expense
Estimate, but Lessor shall invoice Lessee 1/12 of said increase for each
month of the calendar year, and Lessee shall pay such increase coincident
with its normal monthly rental payment.
5.2.2 In the event that any Annual Estimate shall be in excess of the
expenses as indicated in the operating statement delivered to the Lessee,
as directed in 5.1.2, above, then Lessee shall receive a credit against
its rental payment due for such overpayment coincident with the delivery
of the operating statement to Lessee.
5.2.3 In the event that any Annual Estimate shall be less than the
expenses as indicated in the operating statement delivered to the Lessee,
as directed in 5.1.2, above, then Lessee shall pay such difference within
thirty days of the delivery of the operating statement to Lessee.
5.3 Nothing contained in this Paragraph 5 shall be construed at any time as
to reduce the monthly installments of Base Rental payable hereunder below
the amount set forth in Article 4, Paragraph 4.1 of this Lease.

and obligations hereunder. Lessor agrees to not unreasonably withhold or
delay its consent to any assignments or sublessee.

additions, improvements, to the Leased Premises by Lessee, shall at once
become the property of Lessor and shall be surrendered to Lessor upon the

however, Lessee shall at Lessor's request execute promptly any
appropriate certificate or instrument that Lessor may reasonably request.
In the event of the enforcement by the trustee or the beneficiary under
any such mortgage or deed of trust or ground lease, Lessee will, upon
request of any person or party succeeding to the interest of Lessor as a
result of such enforcement, automatically become the Lessee of such
successor in interest without change in the terms or other provisions of
this Lease; provided, however, that such successor in interest shall not
be bound by (i) any payment of rent or additional rent for more than one
month in advance except prepayments in the nature of security for the
performance by Lessee of its obligations under this Lease or (ii) any
amendment or modification of this Lease made without the written consent,
not unreasonably withheld, and subject to the "Non-Disturbance language"
contained in Exhibit "D" of this Lease, of such Trustee or such
beneficiary or such successor
in interest, unless such amendment or modification was executed prior
to the transfer of interest. Upon request by such successor interest,
Lessee shall execute and deliver an instrument or instruments confirming
the attornment herein provided for.
26. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE OR THREE-PARTY AGREEMENT:
26.1 At Lessor's request Lessee will execute either an estoppel certificate
addressed to Lessor's mortgagee or a three-party agreement among Lessor,
Lessee and said mortgagee or an estoppel certificate addressed to Lessor
or any other party, certifying as to such fact (if true) and agreeing to
such notice provisions and other matters as such mortgagee or any other
party may reasonable require in connection with Lessor's financing.
27. CONDEMNATION AND LOSS OR DAMAGE:
27.1 Lessor and Lessee mutually covenant and agree as follows: If the Leased
Premises shall be taken or condemned for any public purpose, or if a
condemnation results in the loss of so many parking spaces or common
areas as to make it impossible for Lessee to reasonably carry on his
business (or if a voluntary conveyance in lieu thereof is made) this
lease shall cease and terminate. All proceeds from any taking or
condemnation of the Leased Premises shall belong to and be paid to
Lessor, and Lessor shall have the sole right and authority to negotiate
with any public or condemning authorities with respect thereto. However,
Lessee shall have the right to file a separate claim.
28. DAMAGES FROM CERTAIN CAUSES:
28.1 Lessor shall not be liable or responsible to Lessee for any loss or
damage to any property or person occasioned by theft, fire, act of God,
public enemy, injunction, riot, strike, insurrection, war, court order,
requisition or order of governmental body or authority, and other act of
force majeure.
29. DEFAULT BY LESSEE:
29.1 If default shall be made in the payment of any sum to be paid by Lessee
under this Lease, and default shall continue for ten (10) days following
receipt of written notice, or default shall be made in the performance of
any of the other covenants or conditions which Lessee is required to
observe and to perform, and such default (other than extra-hazardous use
of the Leased Premises) shall continue for twenty (20) days following
written notice, or if the interest of Lessee under this Lease shall be
levied on under execution or other legal process, or if any petition
shall be filed by or against Lessee or any Guarantor hereof to declare
Lessee or any Guarantor hereof bankrupt or to delay, reduce or modify
Lessee's debts or obligations, or that of any Guarantor hereof or if any
petition shall be filed or other action taken to reorganize or modify
Lessee's capital structure, or that of any Guarantor hereof or if Lessee
or any Guarantor hereof is declared insolvent according to law, or if any
assignment of Lessee's property or that of any Guarantor hereof shall be
made for the benefit of creditors, or if a receiver or trustee is
appointed for Lessee or any Guarantor or its property, or, if either
Lessee or any Guarantor hereof is a corporation and a majority of the
common voting stock of Lessee or such Guarantor is sold, transferred,
assigned, or conveyed (whether voluntarily or involuntarily) without the
prior written consent of Lessor, or if either Lessee or any Guarantor
hereof is a joint venture, partnership or like entity and a majority of
the ownership interest therein is sold, transferred, assigned or conveyed
(whether voluntarily or involuntarily) without the prior written consent
of Lessor (excepting the case of a sale or transfer of corporate or joint
venture/partnership interests to family members or affiliates); or upon
any other event of default described in any other provision of this
Lease; then Lessor may treat the occurrence of any one or more of the
foregoing events as a breach of this Lease (provided that no such levy,
execution, legal process or petition filed against Lessee shall
constitute a breach of this Lease if Lessee shall vigorously contest the
same by appropriate proceedings and shall remove or vacate the same
within thirty (30) days from the date its creation, service or filing)
and thereupon, at Lessor's option, may have any one or more of the
following described remedies in addition to all other rights and remedies
provided at law or in equity:
29.1.1 Lessor may terminate this Lease and forthwith repossess the Leased
Premises and be entitled to recover forthwith as damages a sum of money
equal to the total of (i) the cost of recovering the Leased Premises,
(ii) the unpaid rent earned at the time of termination, plus interest
thereon at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the due
date, (iii) the balance of the rent for the remainder of term less the
fair market value of the Leased Premises for said period and (iv) any
other sum of money and damages owed by Lessee to Lessor.
29.1.2 Alter locks and other security devices at the Leased Premises.
29.1.3 Lessor may terminate Lessee right to possession (but not the
Lease) and may repossess the Leased Premises by forcible entry or
detainer suit or otherwise, without demand or notice of any kind to
Lessee and without terminating this Lease, in which event Lessor may, but
shall be under no obligation to do so unless provided by law, relet the
Leased Premises or any portion thereof for the account of Lessee for such
rent and upon such terms as shall be satisfactory to Lessor, as further
provided in Paragraph 31.1. For the purpose of such reletting, Lessor is
authorized to decorate or to make any repairs, changes, alteration or
additions in or to Leased Premises, or if the same are relet and a
sufficient sum shall not be realized from such reletting after paying the
unpaid basic and additional rent due hereunder earned but unpaid at the
time of reletting plus eighteen percent (18%) per annum thereon, no such
reletting shall be construed as an election on the part of Lessor to
terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given
by Lessor to Lessee.
Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Lessor may at any
time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease, for such pervious breach.
All claims or damages by reason of re-entry and/or possession and/or
alteration of locks or other security devices are hereby waived as are
all claims for damages by reason of any distress warrant, forcible
detainer proceedings, sequestration proceedings or any other legal
process. Lessee agrees that any re-entry by Lessor may be pursuant to
judgment obtained in detainer proceedings or other
legal proceedings or without the necessity for any legal proceedings,
as Lessor may elect and Lessor shall not be liable in trespass or
otherwise.
29.1.4 The exercise by Lessor of any one or more remedies granted under
Article 30 or otherwise available to Lessor shall not be deemed to be an
acceptance of surrender of the Leased Premises by Lessee, whether by
agreement or by operation of law, it being understood that such surrender
can be effected only by the written agreement of Lessor and Lessee.
30. LESSOR'S RIGHT TO RELET:
30.1 In the event of default by Lessee in any of the terms or Covenants of
this Lease or in the event the Premises are abandoned by Lessee without
legal justification, Lessor shall make reasonable attempts to relet same
for so much of the remainder of the term provided for herein as Lessor
shall determine in its discretion; and if the rent received through such
reletting does not at least equal the rent provided for herein, Lessee
shall pay and satisfy the deficiency between the amount of the rent so
provided for and that received through reletting, and in addition
thereto, shall pay all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with
any such reletting, including, but not limited to, leasing commissions,
the cost of removing and storing Lessee's or other occupant's property,
and Lessor's legal fees.
Nothing herein shall be construed as in any way denying Lessor the right
in the event of abandonment of said Premises or other breach of this
Agreement by Lessee, to treat the same as an entire breach of this
Agreement and any and all damages which Lessor suffers thereby. In no
event shall Lessee be entitled to any excess of the rent obtained by
reletting over and above the rent herein reserved. Action to collect
amounts due by Lessee as provided in this Article 31 may be brought from
time to time, on one or more occasions, without the necessity of Lessor's
waiting until expiration of the Lease term.
30.2 In the event that Lessor is entitled to change the locks at the Leased
Premises pursuant to any of the foregoing provisions, Lessee agrees that
entry may be gained for that purpose through use of a duplicate or master
key or any other peaceable means, that same may be conducted out of the
presence of Lessee, if Lessor so elects, that no notice shall be required
to be posted by Lessor on any door to the Leased Premises (or any other
information), and that Lessor shall not be obligated to provide a key to
the changed lock to Lessee unless Lessee shall have first:
(1 ) brought current all payments due to Lessor under this Lease;
provided, however, that if Lessor has therefore formally and permanently
repossessed the Leased Premises, or has terminated this Lease, then
Lessor shall be under no obligation to provide a key to the new lock(s)
to Lessee regardless of Lessee's payment of past-due rent or other
past-due amounts, damages, or any other payments or amounts of any nature
or kind whatsoever;
(2) fully cured and remedied to Lessor's satisfaction all other defaults
of Lessee under this Lease (but if such default are not subject to cure,
such as, but not limited to, early
abandonment or vacating of the Leased Premises, then Lessor shall not
be obligated to provide the new key to Lessee under any circumstances);
and,
(3) given Lessor security and assurance reasonably satisfactory to Lessor
that Lessee intends to and is able to meet and comply with its future
obligations under this Lease, both monetary and non-monetary.
Lessor will, upon written request by Lessee, at Lessor's convenience and
upon Lessee s execution and delivery of such waivers and indemnifications
as Lessor may require, at Lessor's option either (i) escort Lessee or its
specifically authorized employees or agents to the Leased Premises to
retrieve personal belongings and effects of Lessee's employees (as
opposed to property which is an asset of Lessee or any Guarantor), and
property of Lessee that is not subject to the landlord's liens and
security interest described in Paragraph 29.1 or (ii) obtain from Lessee
a list of such property described in (i), above, and arrange for such
items to be removed from the Leased Premises and made available to Lessee
at such place and at such time in or about the premises of the Building
as Lessor may designate; provided, however, that if Lessor elects option
(ii), then Lessee shall be required to deliver to Lessor such waivers and
indemnification as Lessor may require in correction therewith, and pay in
cash in advance to Lessor (A) the estimated costs that Lessor will incur
in removing such property from the Leased Premises and making same
available to Lessee at the stipulated location, and (B) all moving and/or
storage charges theretofore incurred by Lessor with respect to such
property. The provisions of this Paragraph 30.2 are intended to override
and supersede any conflicting provisions of the Texas Property Code
(including, without limitation, Section 92.008 thereof, and any
amendments or successor statutes thereto), and of any other law, to the
maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
30.3 In the event of termination or repossession of the Leased Premises for an
event of default, Lessor shall not have any obligation to relet or
attempt to relet the Leased Premises, or any portion thereof, or to
collect rental after reletting; but Lessor shall have the option to relet
or attempt to relet; and in the event of reletting, Lessor may relet the
whole or any portion of the Leased Premises for any period, to any
tenant, for any rental, and for any use and purpose, as Lessor may
determine in its discretion.
30.4 If Lessee should fail to make any payment or cure any default under this
Lease within the time period (if any) provided for in Paragraph 30.1,
above, Lessor, without being under any obligation to do so and without
thereby waiving such default, may make such payment and/or remedy such
other default for the account of Lessee (and enter the Leased Premises
for such purpose), and thereupon Lessee shall be obligated to, and hereby
agrees to, pay Lessor, upon demand, all costs, expenses and disbursements
(including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by
Lessor in taking such remedial action.
31. HOLDING OVER:
31.1 In the event of holding over by Lessee after expiration or termination of
this Lease without the written consent of Lessor, Lessee shall pay as
liquidated damages 110% of the then
current rent for the entire holdover period. No holding over by Lessee
after the term of this Lease shall operate to extend the Lease. In the
event of any unauthorized holding over, Lessee shall indemnify Lessor
against all claims for damages by any other Lessee to whom Lessor may
have leased all or any part of the Premises covered hereby effective
upon the termination of this Lease. Any holding over with the consent
of Lessor in writing shall thereafter constitute the term of this
Lease to be renewable on a month to month basis provided both Lessor
and Lessee mutually agree to the terms and conditions thereof.
32. ATTORNEY'S FEES:
32.1 In the event that either party to this Lease defaults in the performance
of any of the terms, covenants, agreements, or conditions contained in
this Lease and, following any notice or grace period provided herein, the
non-defaulting party places the enforcement of this Lease or any part
thereof or, in the case of Lessor, the collection of any rents due or to
become due hereunder or recovery of the possession of the Leased
Premises, in the hands of an attorney or files suit upon the same, the
defaulting party shall pay to the non-defaulting party reasonable
attorney's fees in addition to any other amounts to which the
non-defaulting party may show itself entitled.
33. ALTERATION:
33.1 This agreement may not be altered, changed or amended, except by an
instrument in writing, signed by both parties hereto.
34. ASSIGNMENT BY LESSOR:
34.1 Lessor shall have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or in part,
all its rights and obligations hereunder and in the Building and property
referred to herein. In such event, no further liability or obligation
shall thereafter accrue against Lessor hereunder, provided such assignee
assumes all of Lessor's obligations herein.
35. NON-WAIVER:
35.1 Failure of Lessor to declare any default immediately upon occurrence
thereof, or delay in taking action in connection therewith, shall not
waive such default, but Lessor shall have the right to declare any such
default at any time and take such action as might be lawful or authorized
hereunder, either in law or in equity. No action by acceptance of an
attempted surrender of the Leased Premises shall be valid unless made in
writing and signed by the Lessor. No entry or taking possession of the
Leased Premises by Lessor shall be construed as an election on its part
to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intent be given
to Lessee.
36. FIRE CLAUSE:
36.1 Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 39.1 hereof, if the Leased
Premises, the Building or Parking Garage shall be damaged by fire or
other casualty resulting from any fault or negligence of Lessee, its
agents, employees or invitees, such damage shall be repaired by and at
the expense of Lessee under the direction and supervision of Lessor and
rent shall continue without abatement.
36.2 If the Leased Premises should be totally destroyed by fire or other
casualty not caused by negligence or fault of Lessee, its agents,
employees or invitees, or if the Leased Premises or the Building should
be so badly damaged by such fire or other casualty as to make the Leased
Premises untenantable, then, in any such event, Lessor shall have the
option to (a) terminate this Lease by written notice delivered to Lessee
within thirty (30) days following the event of such damage or
destruction, in which event neither party hereto shall thereafter have
any further or future obligations hereunder, or (b) continue this Lease
in force and effect, in which event Lessor shall promptly and diligently
repair and restore the damaged or destroyed improvements to substantially
the same condition existing prior to such damage or destruction. For the
period beginning on the date that the Leased Premises were rendered
untenantable to the date of restoration of the Leased Premises to
substantially the same condition existing prior to such damage or
destruction, the rental payable hereunder shall be proportionately
abated. For purposes of this Article 36.2, "untenantable" shall mean that
the Leased Premises have been made inaccessible or unfit in Lessor's
reasonable opinion, for use for the purposes set forth in Article 3.1 as
a result of fire or other casualty, and Lessee does not occupy the Leased
Premises during normal business hours following such casualty.
36.3 If the Leased Premises should be damaged by fire or other casualty not
caused by negligence, faults or acts of Lessee, its agents, employees or
invitees, but the Leased Premises are not made untenantable, this Lease
shall continue in force and effect, and Lessor shall promptly and
diligently repair and restore the damage improvements to substantially
the same condition existing prior to such damage; and for the period
during which Lessee is deprived of any part of the Leased Premises by
reason of such damage and the repair or restoration of the Leased
Premised, the rental payable hereunder shall be proportionately abated.
36.4 If the Building or the Parking Garage should be totally or substantially
destroyed by fire or other casualty not caused by negligence of Lessee,
its agents, employees or invitees, or if the Building or the Parking
Garage shall be so badly damaged as to become untenantable in Lessor's
reasonably opinion (whether or not the Leased Premises or any portion
thereof shall have been damaged), then Lessor may, at Lessor option,
terminate this Lease, and such option to terminate shall be exercised by
written notice delivered to Lessee within thirty (30) days following the
event of such damage or destruction. If Lessor elects to exercise such
option to terminate this Lease, neither party hereto shall thereafter
have any further or future obligations hereunder, and termination shall
be effective as of the date of such casualty. In the event any damage
caused cannot be repaired within 120 days of the occurrence, Lessee shall
have the right to terminate the lease upon giving Lessor thirty (30) days
prior written notice.
36.5 Lessor's obligation to repair and restore the Leased Premises, the
Building or the Parking Garage in the event of a fire or other casualty
as provided for in this Article 36 shall not require Lessor to expend
funds in excess of insurance recoveries made by reason of such fire or
other casualty. In the event insurance recoveries are not sufficient to
make other repairs and restoration provided for in this Article 36,
Lessor may, at Lessor s option, terminate this Lease by written notice to
Lessee within thirty (30) days after the casualty. If Lessor elects to
exercise such option to terminate this Lease, neither party hereto shall
thereafter have any further or future obligations hereunder, and
termination shall be effective as of the date of such casualty.
36.6 In the event this Lease is so terminated as provided for in Paragraph
36.2, 36.4 or 36.5, the rentals payable hereunder shall be adjusted as of
the date of such damage, and any rental paid for any period beyond the
date of such termination shall be promptly refunded to Lessee.
37. INSURANCE:
37.1 Lessor and Lessee shall, at their sole respective cost and expense,
maintain comprehensive General Public Liability Insurance with limits of
not less than $500,000 in the event of bodily injury or death to any
number of persons in any one occurrence, limits of not less that $500,000
for property damage in any one occurrence, and providing Broad Form
Blanket Contractual Liability (for the same limits described above) and
Personal Injury Liability (with exclusions "a" and "c" deleted)

insurance company having a Best's rating of "A+" or better, or otherwise
acceptable to Lessor or Lessee, as applicable, and all premiums shall be
fully paid in advance.
37.2 Except as otherwise limited by current State Board of Insurance rules and
regulations, Lessee's insurance policies shall include endorsements
naming Lessor as an Additional Insured. All policies will also be
endorsed to provide Lessor thirty (30) days' written notice of
cancellation or material change of any coverages or limits. Upon
occupancy, Lessee shall provide Lessor a Certificate of Insurance showing
compliance with the aforesaid coverages, limits and endorsements, and
when requested by Lessor, shall finish certified copies of all said
insurance policies.
37.3 Lessor shall at all times during the term of this lease maintain a policy
or policies of insurance with the premiums paid in advance, issued by,
and binding upon, some solvent insurance company, providing property
coverage insuring the Complex against "All Risks" of loss or damage for
the full insurable value, provided that Lessor shall not be obligated in
any way or manner to insure any personal property (including, but not
limited to, any furniture, machinery, goods, or supplies) of Lessee which
Lessee may have upon or within the Leased Premises, or any fixtures
installed by or paid for by Lessee upon or within the Leased Premises, or
any additional improvements which Lessee may construct on the Leased
Premises.
38. HOLD HARMLESS:
38.1 Lessee shall not do any act or thing upon the Building, Parking Garage or
Real Property which may subject Lessor to any liability or responsibility
for injury, damages to persons or property or to any liability by reasons
of any violation of law or of any legal requirement of public authority,
but shall exercise such control over the Leased Premises as to protect
Lessor against any such liability. Lessee agrees to indemnify and save
harmless Lessor from and against (a) all claims of whatever nature
against Lessor arising from act, omissions or negligence of Lessee, its
contractors, licensees, agents, servants, employees or invitees, or from
the joint concurrent act, omission or negligence of Lessor and Lessee in,
on or about the Building, Parking Garage and Real Property. In addition,
Lessee hereby agrees to indemnify and save harmless Lessor from and
against all claims against Lessor arising from any accident, injury or
damage occurring any where within or about the Leased Premises, where
such accident, injury or damage results or is claimed to have resulted
from any act or omission of Lessee or Lessee's agents, employees, or
invitees, or the joint or concurrent act, omission or negligence of
Lessee and Lessor, (b) Lessor shall not do any act or thing upon the
Building, Parking Garage or Real Property which may subject Lessee to any
liability or responsibility for any injury, damages to person or property
or to any liability by reasons of any violation of law or of any legal
requirements or public authority. Lessor hereby agrees to indemnify and
save harmless Lessee from and against all claims of whatever nature
against Lessee arising from any act, omission or negligence of Lessor,
its contractors, licensees, agents servants, employees or invitees, or
from the joint or concurrent act, omission or negligence of Lessee and
Lessor, in, on or about the Building, Parking Garage and Real Property.
In addition, Lessor hereby agrees to indemnify and save harmless Lessee
for and against all claims against Lessee arising from accident, injury
or damage which results or is claimed to have resulted from any act or
omission of Lessor or Lessor's agents, employees, or invitees, (c) The
foregoing indemnities shall be from and against any and all liability,
fines, suits, demands, costs and expenses (including court costs and
attorney's fees) of any kind or nature incurred in connection with any
such claim or proceeding brought thereon, and the defense thereof.
Lessor's recovery against Lessee and Lessee's recovery against Lessor
under this indemnity shall be subject to the provisions of Paragraph 39.1
hereof. For purposes of this paragraph 38.1, the term "Lessor" shall
include also Lessor's contractors, licensees, agents, servants, employees
(including, but not limited to, any management company employed by
Lessor) or invitees, and the term Lessee shall include also Lessee's
contractors, licensees, agents, servants, employees or invitees.
39. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION RIGHTS:
39.1 Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Lessor and Lessee
each hereby waives any and all rights of recovery, claim, action or cause
of action, against the other, its agents, officers, or employees, for any
loss or damage that may occur to the Leased Premises hereby demised, or
any improvements thereto, said Building of which the Leased Premises are
a part, or any improvements thereto, or any personal property of such
party therein, by reason of fire, the elements or any other cause which
could be insured against under the terms of standard fire and extended
coverage insurance policies referred to in paragraph 37.1 or
37.2 whichever is applicable above, regardless of cause or origin,
including negligence of the other party hereto, its agents, officers
or employees, and covenants that no insurer shall hold any right of
subrogation against such other party.
39.2 Lessor and Lessee each agree to obtain the written consent and agreement
of their respective insurance companies to the provisions of Paragraph
39.1; provided, however, that the failure or inability of either or both
of them to obtain such consent or agreement shall not invalidate the
provisions of said Paragraph 39.1.
40. BROKER:
40.1 Lessee represents and warrants that no brokers other than ▇.▇.
Montaverde, III, Executive Vice-president of Coldwell Bankers Commercial,
is involved in the negotiation of this lease or are entitled to any
commission in connection therewith, and the execution and delivery of
this Lease by Lessor shall be conclusive evidence that Lessor has relied
upon the foregoing representation and warranty.
In the event of a claim of representation of Lessee resulting in a claim
for a brokerage commission by any other broker with respect to the Lease,
then upon formal judgment by a court jurisdiction that such other broker
represented Lessee and is entitled to a commission on the Lease, Lessee
herein will indemnify and save and hold Lessor harmless from and against
all claims for fees, commissions, damages and other costs including
reasonable attorney fees suffered by Lessor.
41. INABILITY TO PERFORM:
41.1 Except as provided herein, this Lease and the obligation of Lessee to pay
rent hereunder and perform all of the other covenants and agreements
hereunder on the part of Lessee to be performed shall in no way be
affected, impaired or excused because Lessor is unable to fulfill any of
its obligations under this Lease expressly or impliedly to be performed
by Lessor or because Lessor is unable to make, or is delayed in
commencing or making any repairs, additions, alterations, improvements or
decorations or is unable to supply any equipment or fixtures if Lessor is
prevented or delayed from so doing by reason of strikes or labor troubles
or by accident, adjustment of insurance or by any cause whatsoever
reasonably beyond Lessor's control, including but not limited to, laws,
government preemption in connection with a National Emergency or by
reason of rule, order or regulation or any department or subdivision
thereof or by government agency or by reason of the conditions of supply
and demand which have been or are affected by war or other emergency.
42. MEMORANDUM OF LEASE:
Neither party shall record this Lease Agreement or any of the exhibits
and/or addenda attached hereto, but at the request of either party,

have been mailed as provided in this Paragraph.
44. MISCELLANEOUS:
44.1 This Lease contains the entire agreement between the parties and
all prior negotiations and agreements are merged in this Lease. Any
executory agreement hereafter made shall be ineffective to change,
modify, discharge or effect an abandonment of it in whole or in part

abandonment is sought.

together with the attached Schedule of Tenant Extra Improvements (Exhibit
"B-1"). The cost and installation of such improvements shall be handled as
follows:
A. Lessor shall, at its cost, provide for the tenant improvements
delineated on Exhibit "B", attached hereto, including the cost thereof.
B. In the event Lessee requires any Tenant Extra Improvements, then,
within fifteen (15) working days of the receipt of Lessee's request for changes
constituting Tenant's Extras, Lessor shall furnish Lessee with a written
statement evidencing the cost of all Tenant Extras, such costs herein referred
to as "Tenant Extra Costs". Prior to Lessor's commencing construction of any
Tenant Extras, Lessee shall execute a statement evidencing Lessee's approval of
all Tenant Extra Costs and Lessee's agreement to pay for all such costs within
ten (10) days after receiving written notice from Lessor of the amount due.

Event of Default by Lessee under the Lease, giving rise to all remedies
available to Lessor under this Lease and at law for nonpayment of rent.
3. LEASE RENEWAL: Lessor hereby grants Lessee one option to renew this
Lease, at the then existing Market Rate and Terms, provided Lessee notifies
Lessor in writing of its decision to exercise this option by giving Lessor
