SECTION 3

shall be due and payable in advance, in legal tender of the United States of
America, in twelve (12) equal installments, one such installment being due on
the first day of each calendar month during the Term of the Lease and any
applicable extensions or renewals thereof. Tenant agrees to pay such Base Rent
and Additional Rent to Landlord monthly, in advance, without demand. If the
Lease Term commences on a day other than the first day of a month or terminates
other than the last day of a month, then the installments of Base Rent and
Additional Rent for such month(s) shall be prorated, based upon the number of
days in such month. Provided Tenant is in full compliance with the terms and
conditions of this Lease, Aggregate Monthly Rent shall be abated for the first
three (3) months of the Lease Term, subject to Tenant's election to increase the
Allowance.
0.0.1 First Month's Rental Obligation. Concurrent with the
execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the sum of Thirty-Five
Thousand Nine Hundred Sixteen and 30/100 Dollars ($35,916.30), which amount

(see Sections 1.1.4 and 3.1 above), and which sum may be subject to adjustment
pursuant to Section 2.1.1.
1.5 Base Rent Increases. The Base Rent shall be increased by three

from the Commencement Date throughout the Term of this Lease, at the time and
manner set forth herein, the following Additional Rent:
0.0.1 Tenant's Share of Property Operating Costs. Tenant shall pay
to Landlord its Pro-Rata Share of Property Operating Costs to the extent that
the Property Operating Costs, as that term is more fully defined below, exceed
Landlord's Share. Following the Base Year, Landlord shall estimate each Lease
Year's Property Operating Costs and shall notify Tenant, in writing, within one
hundred and twenty (120) days after the beginning of each successive Lease Year
of Tenant's Share (net of Landlord's Share), applying the current Lease Year's
estimated Property Operating Costs ("Estimated Tenant's Share"). The Estimated
Tenant's Share shall be pro-rated on a monthly basis for the applicable Lease
Year and such pro-rated amount shall be remitted by Tenant, in advance,
commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing on the first day of each
month thereafter, without further demand or any deduction or setoff. Until such
time as Landlord notifies Tenant of the current Lease Year's Estimated Tenant's
Share, Tenant shall continue to pay the Estimated Tenant's Share for the
previous Lease Year.
0.0.2 Notification of Property Operating Costs. Following the end
of each Lease Year, Landlord will ascertain the actual Property Operating Costs
for the current Lease Year then ending, and shall compute the difference thereof
from the Estimated Tenant's Share paid by Tenant for the applicable Lease Year.
Landlord shall notify Tenant, in writing, within one hundred and twenty (120)
days of the end of each Lease Year of such difference, if any (the "Property
Operating Cost Statement"). In no event, however, shall failure to deliver the
Property Operating Cost Statement within said one hundred and twenty (120) day
period prevent Landlord from collecting the difference, if any, from Tenant.
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within thirty (30) days following receipt of the
Property Operating Cost Statement, the amount, if any, due to Landlord
(inclusive of the last year
Page -4-
of the Term). In the event that the Property Operating Cost Statement reflects
an amount due to Tenant, then same shall be credited and applied to the next
monthly payment of Base Rent and Additional Rent, until such amount has been
fully exhausted, provided that in the last year of the Term any excess shall be
refunded to Tenant within thirty (30) days following Tenant's receipt of the
Property Operating Cost Statement, or any shortfall shall be paid by Tenant
within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the Property Operating Cost Statement.
In no event shall Landlord or Tenant be entitled to receive interest on any
amounts due to the respective party as shown on the Property Operating Cost
Statement. The obligation of Tenant to pay Landlord Tenant's Pro-Rata Portion
of the Property Operating Costs, or Landlord's obligation to refund any excess
paid by Tenant shall survive the early termination or expiration of this Lease.
0.0.3 Property Operating Costs. The term "Property Operating
Costs" shall mean the total cost and expense incurred, during each Lease Year,
in managing, operating, equipping, lighting, repairing, replacing and
maintaining the Property, as well as any owners association's common area
assessments which are established and which are allocable to the Property as
reasonably determined by the Landlord, annualized over a Lease Year. Such
operating and maintenance costs shall include all costs and expenses of
operating and maintaining such areas and facilities in such manner as Landlord

tenants of the Property, including, without limitation, the following:
d. all Impositions, as that term is defined in Section 3.3.5 below;
e. all Utilities not separately metered or billed to Tenant, or other
tenants, and all other utilities and services provided to the Property;

defamation and claims of false arrest, and such other insurance in such amounts
and covering hazards deemed appropriate by Landlord or which Landlord or any
Mortgagee deems necessary or prudent;
h. the cost (amortized over such period as Landlord reasonably
determines, together with interest at twelve percent (12%) on the unamortized
balance) of any capital improvements to the Property or equipment replacements
made by Landlord after the Commencement Date that are intended to reduce
Property Operating Costs, or are required by any laws, which are necessary in
order to operate the Property at the same quality level as prior to such
replacement;
i. costs and expenses of operation, repair and maintenance of all
structural portions and components of the Property, including, without
limitation, plumbing, communication, common area heating, ventilating and

i. management fees not to exceed three percent (3%) of the annual gross
revenue of the Building, and administrative fees not to exceed fifteen percent
(15%) of the direct Property Operating Costs, for direct labor and overhead for
administrative personnel at or below the property manager level allocable to the
Premises, Building or Property, which fees shall be payable to Landlord or to
any other entity which is managing or administering the Property and/or the
Building;
j. costs incurred in providing private police protection, roving
patrol, or night watchmen (including, but not limited to, uniforms), and fire

Page -5-
Landlord elects to provide the same), including, but not limited to, furnishing

l. Landlord's share of any charges or contributions made under a
recorded covenant or other agreement that relates to the Property and any other
property, which are disclosed, in writing, in advance to the Tenant; and
m. cost of leasing and operating any signs, the cost of personnel to
implement any service described above, to direct traffic and to police the
Common Areas.
1.6.1.1 For any period that the occupancy of the Building during the Base
Year or any Lease Year is less than ninety-five percent (95%), Property
Operating Costs for such Base Year shall be "grossed up" to that amount of
Property Operating Costs that, using reasonable projections, would normally be
expected to be incurred if the Building were ninety-five percent (95%) occupied
during the Base Year; provided, further, that to the extent that for any reason
the Building was only in operation for a portion of the Base Year, Property
Operating Costs for the Base Year shall be "grossed up" and shall reflect such
adjustments for seasonality and otherwise as Landlord deems appropriate to that
amount of Property Operating Costs that, using reasonable projections and
assumptions, would normally be expected to be incurred if the Building had been
in operation during the entire Base Year. With respect to Real Property Taxes
included in Property Operating Costs for the Base Year, such amount shall be
determined under the assumption that the Building is fully assessed as a
completed and occupied unit and if one or more additional buildings are at any
time constructed on the parcel of real property that the Building is situated
upon, then at the option of Landlord at each instance the amount of the Base
Year shall be changed to give effect to restatement of the Property Operating
Costs for the Base Year predicated upon recomputation of the Real Property Taxes
which were included in Property Operating Costs to be a new amount of Real
Property Taxes multiplied by the fraction whose numerator is the total Rentable
Area of the Building and whose denominator is the total Rentable Area of all
buildings (including the Building) situated upon such parcel.
1.6.1.2 With respect to any Utilities or service mentioned herein which is
not separately metered or billed to Tenant, if Landlord determines that Tenant's
use of such utility or service is excessive or abnormal such that it is unfair
to assess Tenant and other tenants therefor on a pro-rata square footage basis,
Landlord shall so notify Tenant. Such written notice shall contain Landlord's
estimate of a reasonable amount of the overall cost of such utility or service
which should be billed to Tenant. If, within thirty (30) days after Tenant's
receipt of such notice, Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon a
reasonable amount of the overall cost of such utility or service to be paid by
Tenant, then, and in such event, Tenant shall cause such utility or service to
be separately metered to Tenant or separately contracted-for by Tenant, so that
Tenant will pay separately, at Tenant's sole expense, for such utility or
service (in which case Landlord shall not thereafter assess Tenant for any
amount of such utility or service). The cost of the installation of any separate
meter shall be paid by Tenant. Tenant has requested and Landlord will provide
certain Additional Service, as defined and more fully elaborated in Section
10.1(c) below.

as supplied by Landlord to the extent the same exceeds the costs therefor if
rendered by an unaffiliated third party within ▇▇▇▇▇ County, Nevada.
21.0.1 Impositions . For the purpose of this Lease, the term
"Impositions" means:
v. any real estate taxes, fees, assessments (including, but not limited
to, any local improvement district assessments), or other charges assessed

with the Property and related structures other than taxes payable by Tenant
under Section 12.1 hereof, or payable by any other tenant in the Building;
x. any and all taxes, assessments, license fees, and public charges
levied, assessed, or imposed, and which become payable during the Term hereof

provided, however, that in no event shall such fees exceed the amount of actual
savings;
bb. any expenses incurred in connection with any requirement subsequent
to the date hereof for changes at the Property so as to comply with then
existing laws, ordinances or codes imposed by federal, state or local
governmental authorities, together with any and all fees reasonably incurred by
Landlord in its opposition to any such regulations; and
cc. all new and increased assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges
relating to the Property shall be included within the definition of
"Impositions" for the purposes of this Lease.
1.7 Expenditures by Landlord. Whenever under any provision of this Lease, Tenant
shall be obligated to make any payment or expenditure, or to do any act or
thing, or to incur any liability whatsoever, and Tenant fails, refuses or
neglects to perform as herein required, Landlord shall be entitled, but shall
not be obligated, (i) to make any such payment; (ii) to do any such act or
thing; or (iii) to incur any such liability, all on behalf of and at the cost of
and for the ac-count of Tenant. In exercising this right, Landlord shall be
permitted to charge Tenant the cost thereof plus interest thereon at the rate of
fifteen percent (15%) per annum, which charge shall constitute and be
collectible as Additional Rent on demand.

Property Operating Cost Statement, such Property Operating Cost Statement shall
be conclusively binding upon Tenant. In the event that Tenant was the prevailing
party, in whole or in part, in an audit, Tenant shall only be entitled to audit
Landlord's books and records that apply to the prior year immediately preceding

Landlord, however, shall have no liability to Tenant, its employees, agents,
invitees or licensees for losses due to theft or burglary, or for damages
resulting from the actions of unauthorized persons on the Premises or in the
Building and Landlord shall not be required to insure against any such losses.
Tenant shall cooperate fully in Landlord's efforts to maintain security in the
Building and shall follow all regulations promulgated by Landlord with respect
thereto. Subparagraphs (a) through (i) shall collectively be referred to as
"Landlord's Services."
The failure by Landlord, to any extent, to furnish, or the interruption or
termination of Landlord's Services, in whole or part, resulting from causes
beyond the reasonable control of Landlord shall not render Landlord liable in
any respect, nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor work an abatement of
Aggregate Monthly Rent, nor relieve Tenant from the obligation to fulfill any
covenant or agreement hereof. Should any of the equipment or machinery used in
the provision of such services for any cause cease to function properly, Tenant
shall have no claim for offset or abatement of rent or damages on account of an
interruption in service resulting therefrom; provided that Landlord shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to restore any Landlord Service which has been
interrupted, as soon as practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of
the Landlord's Services are not restored within five (5) business days, Tenant's
Page -16-
Aggregate Monthly Rent under this Lease shall ▇▇▇▇▇ each day after such five (5)
business day period that such service is not restored. If Landlord fails to
perform any maintenance or repair work required hereunder within thirty (30)
days following Landlord's receipt of written notice from Tenant of the need for
such repairs (or such period of time in excess of thirty (30) days, as is
reasonably necessary based upon the nature of such work, provided Landlord
commences and diligently pursues the work during such thirty (30) day period),
then Tenant shall be permitted to make such repairs upon delivery of an
additional three (3) business days' prior written notice to Landlord indicating
that Tenant will be undertaking such repairs, and Tenant shall be entitled to
recover from Landlord the reasonable costs of such repairs made by Tenant.
1.34 Improvements to Common Areas. Landlord reserves the right from time to time
without unreasonable interference with Tenant's access to, or use, of the
Premises: (i) to install, use, maintain, repair and replace pipes, ducts,
conduits, wires and appurtenant meters and equipment for service to other parts
of the Building above the ceiling surfaces, below the floor surfaces, within the
walls and in the central core areas, and to relocate any pipes, ducts, conduits,
wires and appurtenant meters and equipment included in the Premises which are
located in the Premises or located elsewhere outside the Premises, and to expand
the Building; (ii) to make changes to the Common Areas, including, without
limitation, changes in the location, size, shape and number of driveways,
entrances, loading and unloading areas, ingress, egress, direction of traffic,
landscaped areas and walkways and parking spaces and parking areas, provided
that such changes do not materially interfere with or adversely affect Tenant's
use of the Premises and/or the parking areas; (iii) to close temporarily any of
the Common Areas for maintenance purposes so long as reasonable access to the
Premises remains available and advance written notice to Tenant is given; (iv)
to use the Common Areas while engaged in making additional improvements, repairs
or alterations to the Property, or any portion thereof; and (v) to do and
perform such other acts and make such other changes in, to or with respect to
the Common Areas and Property as Landlord may, in the exercise of sound business
judgment, deem to be appropriate.
1.35 Landlord's Duty to Repair. Landlord agrees to keep in good
order, condition and repair the foundations, exterior walls, roof of the
Building, plumbing and electrical systems of the Premises, except for reasonable
wear and tear and except for any damage thereto caused by any act or negligence
of Tenant or its agents, employees, servants, contractors, subtenants,
licensees, customers or business invitees. It is an express condition precedent
to all obligations of Landlord to repair and maintain the Premises that Tenant
shall have notified Landlord in writing of the need for such repairs or
maintenance. The cost of such repairs shall be included in the Property
Operating Costs, as such term is defined herein, or as to repairs of the
Premises, otherwise directly billed to Tenant, as the case may be. All repair,
maintenance, upkeep, and the like, upon or within the Premises, shall be the
responsibility of and at the expense of Tenant during the entire Lease Term,
except for any obligations of Landlord as set forth herein.
21.0.1 Utility Service Facilities. All additions to the utility
service facilities and equipment of the Property which may be installed
for the specific need of Tenant shall be Tenant's responsibility to
maintain and repair.

any subtenant, assignee, or concessionaire) of any individual with a disability.
1.38 Storage of Disposition of Hazardous Materials. Tenant will not cause
or permit the storage, use, generation, or disposition of any Hazardous

operated in a manner that may cause the Premises or the Property to be

"materials" are properly maintained, stored and disposed of, and that Tenant
complies with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations applicable thereto and
that Tenant bears all responsibility and liability therefor.

Materials by Tenant, its agents, employees or contractors. The foregoing
indemnity shall further apply to any residual contamination on, under, from or
about the Premises, the Property or the property in general, or affecting any
natural resources arising in connection with the use, generation, manufacturing,
production, handling, storage, transport, discharge or disposal of any such
Hazardous Substance, and irrespective of whether any of such activities were or

SECTION 12
TAXES
-----

upon demand by Land-lord, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with satisfactory
evidence of the payment thereof) all taxes, fees, bonds and assessments of
whatsoever kind or nature, and penalties and interest thereon, if any, levied
against Tenant's personal property or any other personal property of whatsoever
kind and to whomsoever belonging to, situated on or installed in or upon the
Premises whether or not affixed to the realty. If at any time during the Term of
this Lease any such taxes on personal property are assessed as part of the tax
on the real property of which the Premises is a part, then in such event Tenant
shall pay to Landlord the amount of such additional taxes as may be levied
against the real property by reason thereof.
1.42 Excise Tax. If at any time during the Term, under the laws of the United
States, Nevada or any political sub-division thereof, a tax or excise on rent or
other tax (except income tax), however described, is levied or assessed by the
United States, Nevada or said political subdivision against Landlord on account
of any rent reserved under this Lease, all such tax or excise on rent or other
taxes shall be paid by Tenant. Whenever Landlord shall receive any statement or
▇▇▇▇ for any such tax or shall otherwise be required to make any payment on
account thereof, Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, the amount due hereunder
within ten (10) days after demand therefor accompanied by delivery to Tenant of
a copy of such tax statement, if any.
21.0.1 Contest Validity. Tenant, at Tenant's own cost and expense,
may, in good faith so desire, contest the validity or amount
of any taxes in which event Tenant may defer the payment thereof for such period
as such contest shall be actively prosecuted and shall be pending undetermined,
so long as such proceedings and any appeals shall not operate to legally prevent
the collection of such payments and/or force the sale of the Premises and/or
Property to satisfy any lien arising out of the non-payment of the same.
SECTION 13
INSURANCE
---------
1.43 General Liability Insurance. Tenant shall, at all times during the Term, at
its sole cost and expense, pro-cure and maintain in full force and effect a
policy or policies of commercial general liability insurance coverage issued by
an insur-ance carrier having an A.M. Best rating of at least A-VIII or higher
and authorized to transact business in the State of Nevada assuring against
loss, damage or liability for injury or death to persons and loss or damage to
property occurring from any cause whatsoever in connection with the Premises or
Tenant's use thereof. Such liabil-ity insurance shall be in amounts not less
than One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence and Two
Million and 00/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00) aggregate, or Two Million and 00/100
Dollars ($2,000,000.00) combined single limit coverage. Such insurance shall
also cover and include all exterior signs maintained by Tenant hereunder.
Landlord shall be named as an additional insured
Page -19-
(and at Landlord's option, any other persons, firms or corporations designated
by Landlord shall be additionally named insureds) under each such policy of
insur-ance. Each such party shall be designated as an additional insured under
ISO endorsement CG 20 10 3 97 or such other comparable endorsement upon
Landlord's reasonable request.
1.44 Special Peril Property Insurance. Tenant shall, at all times during the
Term, at its sole cost and expense, procure and maintain in full force and
effect "special peril" property insurance covering not less than one hundred
percent (100%) of the current replacement value of the Tenant's Improvements on
or within the Premises and the personal property therein.
1.45 Certificate of Insurance. A certificate issued by the insurance carrier for
each policy of insurance required to be maintained by Tenant hereunder shall be
delivered to Landlord and all other named insureds on or before the Commencement
Date hereof and thereafter, as to policy renewals, within thirty (30) days prior
to the expiration of the term of each such policy. Each certificate of insurance
and each such policy of insurance required to be maintained by Tenant hereunder
shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and shall
expressly evidence insurance coverage as required by this Lease and shall
contain an endorsement or provision requiring not less than thirty (30) days'
prior written notice to Landlord and all other named insureds of the
cancellation. As to any proposed diminution in the perils insured against, or
reduction of the amount of coverage of the particular policy in question,
initiated (i) by the insurer, shall require not less than thirty (30) days'
prior written notice to Landlord; and (ii) by Tenant, shall require not less
than thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Landlord.
1.46 Use of Premises. Tenant shall not use, occupy or permit the Premises to be
used or occupied, in a manner which will make void or voidable any insurance
then in force with respect thereto or the Property, or which will make it
impossible to obtain casualty or other insurance with respect to the Property.
1.47 Waiver of Recovery Rights. The parties hereto hereby
waive any and all rights of recovery from the other, their respective partners,
officers, agents and employees for any loss or damage, including consequential
loss or damage, caused by any peril or perils (including negligent acts)
enumerated in each form of insurance policy required to be maintained by the
other hereunder.
1.48 Waiver of Subrogation. Each policy of insurance provided for in this
Section 13 shall contain an express waiver of any and all rights of subrogation
thereunder whatsoever against the insured party, its partners, officers, agents
and employees, to the extent of the insurance coverage required under this
Lease. All such policies shall be written as primary policies and not
contributing with or in excess of the coverage, if any, which such party may
carry. Any other provision contained in this Section or elsewhere in this Lease
notwithstanding, the amounts of all insurance required hereunder to be paid by a
party shall be not less than an amount sufficient to prevent the other party
from becoming a co-insurer.
1.49 Prohibited Sales or Activity. Tenant agrees that it will not keep, use,
sell or offer for sale in or upon the Premises or any section thereof, any item,
or permit any activity, which may be prohibited by the standard form of casualty
or public liability insurance policy. Tenant agrees to pay any increase in
premiums for insurance which may be carried by Landlord on the Premises or the
Building of which it is a part, resulting from the use or activities in the
Premises, whether or not Landlord has consented to the same. In determining
whether increased premiums are the result of Tenant's use of the Premises, a
schedule, issued by the organization making the insurance rate on the Premises,
showing various components of such rate, shall be conclusive evidence of the
several items and charges which make up the respective insurance rate on the
Premises.
1.50 Prohibited Use Deemed Ultra Hazardous. Tenant shall not use or occupy the
Premises or any part thereof, or suffer or permit the same to be used or
occupied for any business or purpose deemed ultra hazardous on account of fire
or otherwise. In the event Tenant's use and/or occupancy causes any increase of
premium for insurance on the Premises or any part thereof above the rate for the
least hazardous type of occupancy legally permitted in the Premises, Tenant
shall pay such additional premium on the insurance policy that may be carried by
Landlord for its protection. Bills for such additional premiums shall be
rendered by Landlord to Tenant at such time as Landlord may elect, and shall be
due from and payable by Tenant when rendered in writing, but such increase in
Page -20-
the rate of insurance shall not be deemed a breach of this covenant by Tenant.
Failure to pay amounts due hereunder shall be a breach of the Lease.
1.51 Landlord's Maintenance of Special Peril Property Insurance. Landlord shall,
at all times during the Term, subject to Tenant's obligation for its Pro-Rata
Share of the Property Operating Costs, procure and maintain in full force and
effect "special peril" property insurance against perils included therein
(excluding flood and earthquake), boiler and machinery coverage and such further
coverage as Landlord may conclude is necessary covering not less than one
hundred percent (100%) of the current replacement value of the Building in which
the Premises is situated and its improvements. The insurer therefor shall meet
the minimum requirements as otherwise set forth above. Mortgagee(s) of the
Property or any portion thereof may be named as additional insureds thereon.
Such insurance shall also cover all exterior signs maintained by Landlord
hereunder.
1.52 Landlord's Maintenance of General Liability Insurance. Landlord shall,
during the Term, subject to Tenant's obligation for its pro-rata share of the
Property Operating Costs, procure and maintain in full force and effect a policy
or policies of commercial general liability insurance assuring against loss or
damage or liability for injury or death to persons and loss or damage to
property occurring from any cause whatsoever in connection with the Property.
Such liability insurance shall be in an amount of not less than One Million and
00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence and Two Million and 00/100 Dollars
($2,000,000.00) aggregate. Such insurance shall also cover and include all
exterior signs maintained by Landlord hereunder. The insurer therefor shall meet
the minimum requirements as otherwise set forth above. Mortgagee(s) of the
Property or any portion thereof may be named as additional insureds thereon.
SECTION 14
INDEMNIFICATION
---------------
1.53 Indemnification. Tenant hereby indemnifies, saves and holds Landlord, the
Premises, the Property, the leasehold estate and Landlord's management agent for
the Property free of and harmless from any and all liabilities, losses, costs,
expenses, including attorney's fees (at trial, and on appeal), causes of action,
suits, judgments, claims, liens and demands of any kind whatsoever in connection
with, arising out of, or by reason of any act, omission or negligence of Tenant,
its agents, employees, servants, contractors, subtenants, licensees, customers
or business invitees while in, upon, about or in any way connected with the
Premises or the Property or arising from the use and occupancy of the Premises
by Tenant, or occasioned wholly or in part by any act or omission of Tenant, its
subtenants, agents, contractors, employees, servants, lessees or
concessionaires, excepting, however, such claims and demands, whether for
injuries to persons or loss of life, or damage to property, caused by the gross
negligence or wilful misconduct of Landlord. If, however, any liability arises
in the Common Areas because of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of
Tenant, Tenant's subtenants, agents, employees, contractors, invitees, customers
or visitors, then in such event Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless. In case
Landlord shall, without fault on its part, be made a party to any litigation
relating to claims and demands described in this Section 14.1, then Tenant shall
protect and hold Landlord harmless and shall pay all costs, expenses and
reasonable attorney's fees that may be incurred or paid by Landlord in enforcing
the covenants and agreements of this Lease. Landlord shall not be liable for any
damage arising from any acts or neglect of co-tenants or other occupants of the
Property or of adjacent property or of the public.
1.54 Landlord's Liability. Landlord shall indemnify, defend and save Tenant, its
agents, employees, servants, contractors, subtenants, licensees, customers, or
business invitees harmless from and against any and all claims, demands,
actions, suits, losses, damages, costs, expenses and liabilities of any kind or
nature by or in favor of anyone whomsoever, resulting from or in connection with
loss of life, bodily injury or property damage arising out of the use or
maintenance of the Common Areas or occurring within the Common Areas and arising
solely and directly out of the negligence of Landlord or its employees, agents,
servants, contractors or subcontractors.
SECTION 15
SUBORDINATION AND NONDISTURBANCE
--------------------------------------
Page -21-
1.55 Subordination. Subject to the receipt by Tenant of the nondisturbance
agreement described in Section 15.4 below, in a commercially reasonably form
executed by the holder of the mortgage (the "Mortgagee"), Tenant agrees upon
request of Landlord to subordinate every term, provision and covenant in this
Lease to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust or other encumbrance (a
"Mortgage"), together with any renewals, extensions, or replacement thereof, now
or hereafter placed, charged or enforced against the Premises, or any portion of
the Property of which the Premises is a part. If the holder of a Mortgage
becomes the owner of the Property by reason of foreclosure or acceptance of a
deed in lieu of foreclosure, at such holder's election, this Lease and Tenant's
right to possession of the Premises shall not be disturbed, and Tenant will be
bound to such holder or its designee under all the terms and conditions of this
Lease, and Tenant will be deemed to have attorned to and recognized such holder
or its designee as Landlord's successor-in-interest for the remainder of the
Term. Tenant, upon ten (10) business days' written request by Landlord, will
execute and deliver without charge, a commercially reasonably document(s)
acceptable to Landlord or such holder in order to confirm the subordination
and/or attornment set forth above. Tenant's failure to respond to Landlord's
request to negotiate in good faith and execute any such documents referred to in
this Section 16.1, at the expiration of such ten (10) day period, shall
constitute an immediate default (without notice from Landlord or additional time
to cure) by Tenant and shall entitle Landlord to exercise its rights at law, in
equity or under this Lease.
1.56 Prior Lien. In the event that the Mortgagee or beneficiary of any such
mortgage or deed of trust elects to have this Lease a prior lien to its mortgage
or deed of trust, then and in such event, upon such Mortgagee's or beneficiary's
giving written notice to Tenant to that effect, this Lease shall be deemed prior
in lien to such mortgage or deed of trust, whether this Lease is dated prior to
or subsequent to the date of recordation of such mortgage or deed of trust.
1.57 Attornment. Tenant shall, in the event of the exercise of any power of sale
under any deed of trust or any proceedings that are brought for the foreclosure
of a lien affecting the Property, in which the Premises are situated, attorn to
the purchaser upon any such foreclosure or sale and recognize such purchaser as
the Landlord under this Lease, and such purchaser shall recognize the interest
of the Tenant under the Lease, provided that Tenant is not then in default under
this Lease.
1.58 Nondisturbance. With respect to each Mortgage that may encumber the
Property, at or after the commencement of the Term, Landlord agrees that
promptly following receipt of a written request by Tenant (one time only), to
ask the holder of the Mortgage to grant Tenant a "nondisturbance agreement," in
a commercially reasonable form of such holder. The term of the "nondisturbance
agreement," as used herein, shall mean, in general, an agreement that, as long
as Tenant is not in default under this Lease, this Lease will not be terminated
if such holder acquires title to the Property by reason of foreclosure
proceedings or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, provided that Tenant
attorns to such holder, in accordance with its requirements. Except for making
such written request, Landlord will be under no duty or obligation hereunder,
nor will the failure or refusal of such holder to grant a nondisturbance
agreement render Landlord liable to Tenant, or affect this Lease, in any manner.
Tenant will bear all costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, of such
holder in connection with a nondisturbance agreement.
SECTION 16
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
----------------------------
1.59 Assignment. Tenant shall not assign, sublease, transfer or encumber this
Lease or any interest therein. Any one or more (in the aggregate) transfers of
more than a twenty percent (20%) interest in the Tenant shall be deemed to be an
assignment under this Lease (including, but not limited to, any change in
ownership or power to vote, on a cumulative basis, of a majority of Tenant's
outstanding voting stock). Any attempted assignment or sublease by Tenant in
violation of the terms and covenants of this Section 16 shall be void. Tenant
shall not: (i) assign or in any manner transfer this Lease or any estate or
interest therein; (ii) permit any assignment of this Lease or any estate or
interest therein, whether by operation of law or otherwise; (iii) sublet the
Premises or any part thereof; (iv) grant any license, concession, franchise or
other right of occupancy in the Premises or any part thereof; or (v) mortgage,
pledge or otherwise encumber its interest or estate in this Lease or in the
Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld or conditioned, and any such acts shall be ineffective
as against Landlord. Waiver by Landlord as to any assignment or subletting
shall not operate as a waiver of the prohibition contained herein or of
Landlord's rights as to any subsequent assignment or subletting.
Notwithstanding any assignment or subletting, Tenant shall at all times remain
fully responsible and liable for the performance of all Tenant's covenants and
obligations under this Lease. If any default of this Lease should occur while
the Premises or any part thereof are then assigned or sublet, Landlord, in
Page -22-
addition to any other rights and remedies which Landlord may have whether
hereunder, at law or in equity, may at its option collect directly from such
assignee or sublessee all rent becoming due to Tenant under such assignment or
sublease and apply such rent against any sums due to Landlord by Tenant
hereunder, and Tenant hereby authorizes and directs any such assignee or
sublessee to make such payments of said rent directly to Landlord upon receipt
of notice from Landlord. No direct collection by Landlord from any such
assignee or sublessee shall be construed to constitute a novation or a release
of Tenant from the performance of its covenants and obligations hereunder.
Landlord is authorized and empowered, on behalf of Tenant, to endorse the name
of Tenant upon any check, draft or other instrument payable to Tenant evidencing
payment of rent, or any part thereof, and to receive and apply the proceeds
therefrom in accordance with the terms hereof.
21.0.1 Permitted Assignees. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant may, upon ten (10) days' written notice
to, but without any requirement of consent by Landlord, assign this Lease to a
wholly owned subsidiary of Tenant, to an affiliate of Tenant, to an entity that
is controlled by, controls or is under common control with Tenant, or any person
or entity simultaneously acquiring, by asset or stock transfer, consolidation,
merger, sale or reorganization, a majority of Tenant's assets, provided such
assignee assumes this Lease in its entirety, and agrees to perform the
obligations of Tenant under this Lease ("Permitted Assignee(s)"). Further, if
Tenant is a corporation or a partnership, or a publicly traded company, as
defined by applicable federal securities laws, then, in any such event, any
change of ownership resulting in a change of majority control from those persons
or entities not having control will not be deemed an assignment or transfer
requiring Landlord's consent. For purposes herein, "control" means the
possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of
the management and policies of a person or entity, or majority ownership of any
sort, whether through ownership or voting securities, by contract or otherwise.
21.0.2 Proposed Assignee. In the event that Tenant requests
Landlord's consent to assign or otherwise transfer this Lease,
sublet or license all or any part of the Premises, Tenant shall submit to
Landlord the name, address, financial statement, credit authorization and
business experience resume for the immediately preceding three (3) years of the
proposed assignee, transferee or subtenant and such other information concerning
such proposed assignee, transferee or subtenant as Landlord may reasonably
require. This information shall be in writing and shall be received by Landlord
not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the proposed
assignment, transfer or sublease.
21.0.3 Default. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions, if Tenant,
at the time of any request to approve an assignment or sublease, is in default
under any of the terms of this Lease, beyond any applicable notice and cure
period, Tenant may not assign, transfer, or sublet the Premises, in whole or in
part, until such default is cured.
1.60 Option to Terminate. If Tenant requests Landlord's consent to an
assignment of this Lease or subletting of all or part of the Premises, Landlord
shall have the option (without limiting Landlord's other rights hereunder) of
terminating this Lease upon thirty (30) days' notice. Landlord may then, at
Landlord's option, lease space to the prospective assignee or subtenant. In the
event that Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Tenant may, if it so elects,
by written notice to the Landlord within five (5) business days after receipt of
Landlord's termination notice, revoke its notice to assign or sublet, and in
such event, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as if such notice
for assignment or sublet had not been given. If Landlord should fail to notify
Tenant in writing of its decision within a twenty (20) day-period after Landlord
is notified in writing of the proposed assignment or sublease, Landlord shall be
deemed to have refused to consent to such proposed assignment or sublease, and
to have elected to keep this Lease in full force and effect.
1.61 Bonus Rent. In the event that Landlord does consent to any assignment or
sublet pursuant to this Section 16, then Landlord may also require, as a
condition to such consent, that Tenant agree to pay Landlord as Additional Rent,
Page -23-
one hundred percent (100%) of any Bonus Rent received by Tenant. For purposes of
this Lease, Bonus Rent shall mean sums or other economic consideration (i) which
Tenant receives pursuant to the terms of the assignment or sublet, whether or
not denominated rentals under the transfer, and which sums are in excess of
total sums which Tenant is obligated to pay Landlord under this Lease (to be
pro-rated if only a portion of the Premises is subject to such transfer); less
(ii) (a) reasonable leasing commissions paid by Tenant; (b) other reasonable
out-of-pocket costs paid by Tenant, including attorney's fees, advertising
costs, and expenses of subtenant improvements or other expenses of readying the
Premises for occupancy by the transferee; and (c) any consideration paid to the
transferee or any third party to induce the transferee to consummate the
transfer. This covenant and assignment shall run with the land and shall bind
Tenant and Tenant's heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives,
successors and assigns. This Section shall not apply to Permitted Assignees.
1.62 Remedies. No assignment, sublease or other transfer consented to by
Landlord shall release Tenant or change Tenant's primary liability to pay the
rent and to perform all other obligations of Tenant under this Lease. Upon the
occurrence of any default under this Lease, beyond any applicable notice and
cure period, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity
of exhausting any remedies against any subtenant or assignee. Upon termination
of this Lease, any permitted subtenant shall, at Landlord's option, attorn to
Landlord and shall pay all rent directly to Landlord. Landlord's acceptance of
rent from any other person shall not constitute a waiver of any provision of
this Section 16. Consent to one (1) transfer shall not constitute a consent to
any subsequent transfer. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments or
modifications of this Lease by Tenant's transferee, without notifying Tenant or
obtaining its consent. Such action shall not relieve Tenant of its liability
under this Lease.
1.63 Processing Fee. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord a processing fee in an
amount not to exceed Seven Hundred Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($750.00) as
reimbursement to Landlord for any and all legally-related expenses and
Landlord's administrative costs in connection with the review of assignment,
transfer or sublease-related documents, which may be incurred by Landlord in
connection therewith. Payment of such fee shall be submitted to Landlord along
with Tenant's request for Landlord's consent. This Section shall not apply to
Permitted Assignees.
SECTION 17
CONDEMNATION
------------
If the whole or substantially the whole of the Building or the Premises shall be
taken for any public or quasi-public use, by right of eminent domain or
otherwise or shall be sold in lieu of condemnation, then this Lease shall
terminate as of the date when physical possession of the Building or the
Premises is taken by the condemning authority. If less than the whole or
substantially the whole of the Building or the Premises is thus taken or sold,
Landlord (whether or not the Premises are affected thereby) may terminate this
Lease by giving written notice thereof to Tenant, in which event this Lease
shall terminate as of the date when physical possession of such portion of the
Building or Premises is taken by the condemning authority. If the Lease is not
so terminated upon any such taking or sale, the Base Rent payable hereunder
shall be diminished by an equitable amount, and Landlord shall, to the extent
Landlord deems feasible promptly undertake to repair and restore the Building in
which the Premises are situated to a complete architectural unit, consistent
with the base Building and Landlord's Work specified in Exhibit C. Landlord, in
any event, shall not be required to spend for such work an amount in excess of
the amount received by Landlord as compensation for such taking. All amounts
awarded upon a taking of any part or all of the Building or the Premises shall
belong to Landlord, and Tenant shall not be entitled to and expressly waives all
claims to any such compensation.
SECTION 18
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
---------------------
1.64 Destruction of Premises. In the event of the total or partial
destruction of the Building or the Premises, or any portion thereof, whether by
fire or other casualty, this Lease shall not terminate except as otherwise
specifically provided herein. Landlord shall promptly undertake to repair and
restore the Building in which the Premises is situated including Common Areas
therein consistent with the provisions of Section 18.2 below. Thereafter,
Tenant shall, in accordance with Section 18.2 below, promptly undertake and with
reasonable dispatch repair and reconstruct the Premises and other improvements
of the Tenant on the Premises. To the extent insurance proceeds are
Page -24-
insufficient therefor, Tenant shall be liable for any such differences. In
determining what constitutes reasonable dispatch, consideration shall be given
to delays caused by labor disputes, civil commotion, war, warlike operations,
invasion, rebellion, hostilities, military or usurped power, sabotage,
governmental regulations or control, fire or other casualty, inability to obtain
any materials or services, acts of God and other causes beyond Tenant's
reasonable control. In the event of a casualty, not the result of Tenant's
negligence or wilful misconduct, such that the Premises are unusable to the
Tenant in the conduct of its business for a period of more than ten (10) days,
Base Rent shall be abated in proportion to the part of the Premises which is
unusable by Tenant in the conduct of business, as may be reasonably determined
by Landlord (but there shall be no abatement of Base Rent by reason of any
portion of the Premises being unusable for a period equal to ten (10) days or
less.
1.65 Reconstruction. The provisions of this Section 18 with respect to repair
and reconstruction by Landlord shall be limited as to that which is necessary to
place the Premises in the condition existing as of the Occupancy Date specified
in Landlord's Work Letter or like condition, and when placed in such con-dition
the Premises shall be deemed restored and rendered tenantable, promptly
following which time, but not more than ninety (90) days thereafter, subject to
extension of time for Force Majeure and Landlord Delays, as defined in Exhibit
----- -------
C, in the completion of its repair or restoration work, at Tenant's expense,
Tenant shall perform Tenant's Work and any and all modification, addition or
alteration subsequent thereto, and Tenant shall also repair and restore all
Alterations. Tenant shall also repair or replace its stock in-trade, fixtures,
furniture, furnishings, floor coverings and equipment.
21.0.1 Lease Termination. If the Premises cannot be restored and
Tenant's business opened within twelve (12) months following
such damage or destruction based upon a reasonable estimate therefor made by
Landlord's architect following such damage or destruction, then, and in such
event, Landlord or Tenant may, within thirty (30) days after written notice from
Landlord estimating the time to complete such repair or restoration (which
notice shall be given to Tenant within thirty (30) days of such damage or
destruction), elect to terminate this Lease by written notice to the other.
1.66 Insurance Proceeds Maintained by Tenant. All insurance proceeds payable
under any casualty insurance policy procured and maintained by Tenant shall be
payable solely to Tenant and/or its Mortgagee with the provision that such
proceeds shall be made available for repair and restoration of the Premises.
Tenant shall in no case be entitled to compensation or damages on account of any
annoyance or inconvenience in making repairs under any provision of this Lease.
Except to the extent pro-vided for in this Section 18, neither the rent payable
by Tenant nor any of Tenant's other obligations under any provision of this
Lease shall be affected by any damage to or destruction of the Premises or any
portion thereof by any cause whatsoever.
1.67 Insurance Proceeds Maintained by Landlord. All insurance proceeds payable
under any casualty insurance policy procured and maintained by Landlord shall be
payable solely to Landlord and/or its Mortgagee(s), and Tenant shall have no
interest therein. Landlord shall endeavor to see that the proceeds are made
available for repair and restoration as required of Landlord. Tenant shall in no
case be entitled to compensation or damages on account of any annoyance or
inconvenience in making repairs under any provision of this Lease. Except to the
extent provided for in this Section 18, neither the rent payable by Tenant nor
any of Tenant's other obligations under any provision of this Lease shall be
affected by any damage to or destruction of the Premises or any portion thereof
by any cause whatsoever.
SECTION 19
RIGHT OF ACCESS
-----------------
1.68 Right of Access. Landlord and its authorized agents and representatives
shall be entitled to enter the Premises with forty-eight (48) hours prior
written notice to Tenant (facsimile notice being acceptable), and with minimal
interference with Tenant's business at any reasonable time for the purpose of
observing, posting or keeping posted thereon notices provided for hereunder, and
such other notices as Landlord may deem necessary or appropriate for protection
Page -25-
of Landlord, its interest or the Premises; for the purpose of inspecting the
Premises or any portion thereof; to inspect the Premises relative to concerns
over use, storage or disposal of hazardous waste and chemicals; and for the
purpose of making repairs to the Premises or any other portion of the Property
and performing any work therein or thereon which Landlord may elect or be
required to make hereunder, or which may be necessary to comply with any laws,
ordinances, rules, regulations or requirements of any public authority or any
applicable standards that may, from time to time, be established by an Insurance
Services Office or any similar body, or which Landlord may deem necessary or
appropriate to prevent waste, loss, damage or deterioration to or in connection
with the Premises or any other portion of the Property or for any other lawful
purpose. Landlord shall have the right to use any means which Land-lord may deem
proper to open all doors in the Premises in an emergency. Entry into the
Premises obtained by Landlord by any such means shall not be deemed to be
forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction
of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof. Nothing contained herein
shall impose or be deemed to impose any duty on the part of Landlord to do any
work or repair, maintenance, reconstruction or restoration which under any
provision of this Lease is required to be done by Tenant; the performance
thereof by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default in failing
to do the same.
1.69 Performance of Work. Landlord may, during the progress of any work on the
Premises, keep and store upon the Premises all necessary materials, tools and
equipment. Landlord shall not in any event be liable for inconvenience,
annoy-ance, disturbance, loss of business or quiet enjoyment, or other damage or
loss to Tenant by reason of making any such repairs or performing any such work
upon the Premises, or on account of bringing materials, supplies and equip-ment
into, upon or through the Premises during the course thereof, and the
obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall not thereby be affected in any
manner whatsoever. Landlord shall, however, in connection with the performance
of such work, cause as little inconvenience, disturbance or other damage or loss
to Tenant as may be reasonably possible under the circumstances.
1.70 Exhibiting Premises. Landlord, its authorized agents and representatives,
shall be entitled to enter the Premises upon not less than forty-eight (48)
hours prior written notice to Tenant (facsimile notice being acceptable), and
with minimal interference with Tenant's business at all reasonable times for the
purpose of exhibiting the same to prospective purchasers and, during the final
year of the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to exhibit the
Premises for lease and post signs therein announcing the same.
SECTION 20
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE
---------------------
Tenant agrees that within ten (10) days of any demand therefor by Landlord,
Tenant will execute and deliver to Landlord and/or Landlord's designee a
recordable certificate stating that this Lease is in full force and effect (an
"Estoppel Certificate") in a form that is reasonably requested by Landlord.
Tenant acknowledges that any such statement may be relied upon by any Mortgagee
or prospective purchaser of the Building or any interest therein. In the event
that Tenant fails to execute any such certificate for Landlord within said ten
(10) days, Tenant shall be in immediate default under this Lease.
SECTION 21
TENANT'S DEFAULT/LANDLORD'S REMEDIES
----------------------------
1.71 Events of Default. Tenant's compliance with each and every covenant and
obligation hereof on its part to be performed hereunder is a condition precedent
to each and every covenant and obligation of Landlord hereunder. Any one or more
of the following shall be deemed to be an "Event of Default" by Tenant and a
material breach of this Lease:
21.0.1 Non-Payment of Money. If Tenant shall fail to pay Aggregate
Monthly Rent or any other amount or charge to be paid by
Tenant hereunder, within five (5) days of when they are due; or
21.0.2 Non-Monetary Non-Performance. If Tenant shall default in
the performance of any other term, covenant or condition of this Lease on the
part of Tenant to be kept and performed and such default continues for thirty
(30) days after written notice thereof from Land-lord to Tenant; provided,
however, that if the default complained of in
Page -26-
such notice is of such a nature that the same can be rectified or cured, but
cannot with reasonable diligence be done within said thirty (30) day period,
then such default shall be deemed to be rectified or cured if Tenant shall,
within said thirty (30) day period, commence to rectify and cure the same and
shall thereafter complete such rectification and cure with all due diligence; or
21.0.3 Abandonment of Premises. If Tenant shall abandon the
Premises for a period of ten (10) consecutive days; or
21.0.4 Bankruptcy. If there is filed any petition in
bankruptcy, or if Tenant is adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, or if there is
appointed a receiver or trustee to take possession of Tenant or of all or
substantially all of the assets of Tenant, or if there is a general assignment
by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or if any action is taken by or against
Tenant under any state or federal insolvency or bankruptcy act, or if any
similar law now or hereafter in effect, including, without limitation, the
filing of execution or attachment against Tenant and such levy continues in
effect for a period of ninety (90) days. This provision hereof shall also apply
to any guarantor of this Lease or occupant of the Premises; or
21.0.5 Mechanic Liens. If Tenant does, or permits
to be done, any act which creates a mechanic's lien or claim thereof against the
Premises or the Property and fails to timely discharge same; or
21.0.6 Falsified Financial Reports. If Tenant falsifies any
monetary report to Landlord or fails to furnish Landlord with any monetary
report when due, and such default shall continue for twenty (20) days after
written notice from Landlord; or
21.0.7 Failure to Obtain Policies and/or Certificates of Insurance.
If Tenant fails to furnish Landlord with a copy of any insurance policy or
certificate required to be furnished by Tenant to Landlord when due, and such
default shall continue for thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord;
or
21.0.8 Failure to Obtain Consent. If Tenant's causing, permitting
or suffering to be done any act (i) required by this Lease to have the prior
written consent of Landlord, unless such consent is so obtained; or (ii)
prohibited by this Lease; or
21.0.9 Intentionally Omitted.
21.0.10 Intentionally Omitted .
21.0.11 Failure to Perform Other Obligations. In addition to the
events constituting a default and breach of the Lease by Tenant as stated above,
if within any twelve (12) month period during the Term of the Lease, Tenant
shall have failed to perform any obligation required of Tenant hereunder, or has
been in breach for any reason under the Lease more than two (2) times, and
Landlord, because of any such failure and/or breach, shall have served upon
Tenant within said twelve (12) month period two (2) or more notices of any such
failure or breach, then any subsequent failure or breach shall be deemed a
noncurable default, without requirement of notice or opportunity to cure, and
Landlord shall be immediately entitled to exercise any and all rights, remedies
and/or elections specified below or otherwise available at law or in equity.
1.71.1 Cross-Defaults. The parties hereto acknowledge that in addition to
executing this Lease, Tenant has executed an additional lease with an affiliate
of Landlord's for space located at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇,
dated __________, 2002, with ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, LLC, as the landlord (the
"Additional Lease"). Any default, beyond any applicable notice and cure periods,
under this Lease shall constitute a default under the Additional Lease and any
default, beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, under the Additional
Lease shall constitute a default hereunder.
1.72 Additional Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Landlord shall have the right, in accordance with applicable laws, at its
election, then, or at any time thereafter, and while any such Event of Default
shall continue, either:
20. to give Tenant written notice of Landlord's intention to terminate this
Page -27-
Lease on the date such notice is given or on any later date specified therein,
whereupon, on the date specified in such notice, Tenant's right to possession of
the Premises shall cease and this Lease shall thereupon be terminated;
provided, however, that all of Tenant's obligations, including, but not limited
to, payment of the amount of Aggregate Monthly Rent and other obligations
reserved in this Lease for the balance of the Lease Term, shall immediately be
accelerated and due and payable; or
21. to the extent permitted by applicable law, to re-enter and take
possession of the Premises or any part thereof and repossess the same as
Landlord's former estate and expel Tenant and those claiming through or under
Tenant, and remove the effects of both or either, using such force for such
purposes as may be reasonably necessary, (i) without being liable for
prosecution thereof; (ii) without being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass;
and (iii) without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of rent or preceding
breach of covenants or conditions. Should Landlord elect to re-enter the
Premises as provided in this Section 21 or should Landlord take possession
pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law,
Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, relet the
Premises or any part thereof in Landlord's or Tenant's name, but for the account
of Tenant, for such term or terms (which may be greater or less than the period
which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term of this Lease)
and on such conditions and upon such other terms (which may include concessions
of free rent, alteration, and repair of the Premises) as Landlord, in its
discretion, may determine, and Landlord may collect and receive the rents
therefor. Landlord shall in no way be responsible or liable for any failure to
relet the Premises or any part thereof or for any failure to collect any rent
due upon such reletting. No such re-entry or taking possession of the Premises
by Landlord shall be construed as an election on Landlord's part to terminate
this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant. No
notice from Landlord hereunder or under a forcible entry and detainer statute or
similar law shall constitute an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease
unless such notice specifically so stated. Landlord reserves the right following
any such re-entry and/or reletting, to exercise its right to terminate this
Lease by giving Tenant such written notice, in which event, this Lease will
terminate as specified in said notice; or
22. the parties hereto shall and they hereby do waive trial by jury in any
action, proceeding or counterclaim (except for compulsory counterclaims) brought
by either of the parties hereto against the other on any matters whatsoever
arising out of or in any way connected with this Lease, the relationship of
Landlord and Tenant, Tenant's use of occupancy of the Premises, and/or any claim
of injury or damage. In the event Landlord commences any proceedings for
non-payment of any rent, Tenant will not interpose any counterclaim of whatever
nature or description in any such proceedings. This shall not, however, be
construed as a waiver of the Tenant's right to assert such claims in any
separate action or actions brought by Tenant.
1.73 Right to Possession. In the event that Landlord does not elect to
terminate this Lease as permitted in Section 21.2(a) hereof, but, on the
contrary, elects to take possession as provided in Section 21.2(b), Tenant shall
pay to Landlord (i) the rent and other sums as herein provided which would be
payable hereunder if such repossession had not occurred; less (ii) the net
proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Premises after deducting all
Landlord's expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without
limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, reasonable legal
expenses, attorney's fees, expenses of employees, alteration and repair costs,
and expense of preparation for such reletting. If, in connection with any
reletting, the new lease term extends beyond the existing Lease Term, or the
premises covered thereby include other premises not part of the Premises, a fair
apportionment of the rent received from such reletting and the expenses incurred
in connection therewith as provided aforesaid will be made in determining the
net proceeds from such reletting. Tenant shall pay such apportioned rent and
other sums to Landlord, monthly on the days on which the rent would have been
payable hereunder if possession had not been taken.
1.74 Loss of Bargain. In the event this Lease is terminated, Landlord shall be
entitled to recover forthwith against Tenant, as damages for loss of the bargain
and not as a penalty, an aggregate sum which, at the time of such termination of
this Lease, represents the excess, if any, of the aggregate of the rent and all
other sums payable by Tenant hereunder that would have accrued for the balance
of the Lease Term over the aggregate rental value of the Premises (such rental
value to be computed on the basis of a tenant paying not only rent to Landlord
for the use and occupation of the Premises, but also such other charges as are
required to be paid by Tenant under the terms of this Lease) for the balance of
such Lease Term. Alternatively, at Landlord's option, Tenant shall remain liable
to Landlord for damages in an amount equal to the rent and other sums arising
Page -28-
under the Lease for the balance of the Lease Term had the Lease not been
terminated, less the net proceeds, if any, from any subsequent reletting, after
deducting all expenses associated therewith and as enumerated above. Landlord
shall be entitled to receipt of such amounts from Tenant pro-rated monthly on
the days on which such sums would have otherwise been payable.
1.75 Actions for Recovery. Suit or suits for the recovery of the amounts and
damages set forth above may be brought by Landlord, from time to time, at
Landlord's election, and nothing herein shall be deemed to require Landlord to
await the date whereon this Lease or the Lease Term would have expired had there
been no such default by Tenant or no such termination, as the case may be.
1.76 Actions for all Rent. After an Event of Default by Tenant, Landlord may
▇▇▇ for or otherwise collect all rents, issues, and profits payable
under all subleases on the Premises, including those past due and unpaid.
1.77 Landlord not Liable for Trespass. After an Event of Default by Tenant, to
the extent permitted by applicable law, Landlord may, without terminating this
Lease, enter upon the Premises: (i) without being liable for prosecution of any
claim for damages; (ii) without being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass;
and (iii) without prejudice to any other remedies, and do whatever Tenant is
obligated to do under the terms of this Lease. Tenant agrees to reimburse
Landlord on demand for any expenses which Landlord may reasonably incur in
effecting compliance with the Tenant's obligations under this Lease; further,
Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for any damages resulting to
Tenant from effecting compliance with Tenant's obligations under this Section
unless caused by the negligence of Landlord or otherwise.
1.78 No Waiver. No failure by Landlord to insist upon the strict performance
of any agreement, term, covenant, or condition hereof or to exercise any right
or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial
rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any
such breach of such agreement, term, covenant, or condition. No agreement,
term, covenant, or condition hereof to be performed or complied with by Tenant,
and no breach thereof, shall be waived, altered, or modified except by written
instrument executed by Landlord. No waiver of any breach shall affect or alter
this Lease, but each and every agreement, term, covenant, and condition hereof
shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing
or subsequent breach thereof. Notwithstanding any unilateral termination of
this Lease, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as to any
provisions hereof which require observance or performance of Landlord or Tenant
subsequent to termination (i.e. any and all insurance and indemnifications
provisions provided for herein).
1.79 Liquidated Damages. Nothing contained in this Section shall limit or
prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and obtain as liquidated damages in any
bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, or dissolution proceeding,
an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law governing
such proceeding and in effect at the time when such damages are to be proved,
whether or not such amount be greater, equal to, or less than the amounts
recoverable, either as damages or rent, referred to in any of the provisions of
this Section.
1.80 Administrative and Interest Charges. Any rents or other amounts due and
owing to Landlord hereunder which are not paid within five (5) days of the date
they are due shall thereafter bear interest at the Default Interest Rate until
paid. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall pay to Landlord whenever any
Base Rent, Additional Rent, or any other sums due hereunder remain unpaid more
than five (5) days after the due date thereof, an
administrative charge (and not a penalty) to compensate Landlord for the costs
and expenses associated with handling a delinquent account equal to five percent
(5%) of the amount due.
23. Further, upon an Event of Default by Tenant, in addition to all other
rights and remedies, Landlord shall be entitled to receive from Tenant all sums,
the payment of which may previously have been waived or abated by Landlord, or
which may have been paid by Landlord pursuant to any agreement to grant Tenant a
rental abatement or other monetary inducement or concession, including, but not
limited to, any Tenant Improvement Allowance or moving allowance, together with
interest thereon from the date or dates such amounts were paid by Landlord or
would have been due from Tenant but for the abatement, at the Default Interest
Page -29-
Rate, until paid; it being understood and agreed that such concession or for
Recovery abatement was made on the condition and basis that Tenant fully perform
all obligations and covenants under the Lease for the entire Term. Nothing
herein contained shall limit any other remedy of Landlord provided for in this
Lease, at law or in equity. Landlord shall have the right to require that Tenant
pay monies due in the form of a money order or certified funds.
1.81 Landlord's Lien. Tenant agrees that Landlord shall have a Landlord's lien
on and against all real or personal property belonging to Tenant, Tenant's
agents, subtenants, or licensees, which real or personal property is situated on
or in the Premises, which lien shall secure the payment of all rental and
additional charges payable by Tenant to Landlord under the terms hereof.
SECTION 22
QUIET POSSESSION
-----------------
Tenant, upon paying the Base Rent, Additional Rent and all other charges and
monies herein required of Tenant, and upon Tenant's performance of all of the
terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease on its part to be kept and
per-formed, may quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises during the Term of
this Lease without any disturbance from Landlord or from any other person
claiming through Landlord.
SECTION 23
CONVEYANCE BY LANDLORD
------------------------
In the event of any sale, transfer or exchange of the Premises by Landlord,
Land-lord shall be and is hereby relieved of all liability under any and all of
its covenants and obligations contained in or derived from this Lease, arising
out of any act, occurrence or omission relating to the Premises occurring after
the consummation of such sale, transfer, conveyance or exchange. Tenant agrees
to attorn to such purchaser, transferee or grantee.
SECTION 24
DEFAULT BY LANDLORD
---------------------
Subject to Section 10.1, it is agreed that in the event Landlord fails or
refuses to perform any of the provisions, covenants or conditions of this Lease
on Landlord's part to be kept or performed, that Tenant, prior to exercising any
right or remedy Tenant may have against Landlord on account of such default,
shall give written notice to Landlord of such default, specifying in said notice
the default with which Landlord is charged and Landlord shall not be deemed in
default if the same is cured within thirty (30) days of receipt of said notice.
Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Tenant agrees that if the default
complained of in the notice provided for by this Section is of such a nature
that the -same can be rectified or cured by Landlord, but cannot with reasonable
diligence be rectified or cured by Landlord within said thirty (30) day period,
then such default shall be deemed to be rectified or cured if Landlord within a
thirty (30) day period shall commence the rectification and curing thereof and
shall continue thereafter with all due diligence to cause such rectification and
curing to proceed. In no event shall Tenant have the right to terminate or
rescind this Lease as a result of Landlord's default as to any covenant or
agreement contained in this Lease or as a result of the breach of any promise or
inducement hereof, whether in the Lease or elsewhere. Tenant hereby waives such
remedies of termination and recession and hereby agrees that Tenant's remedies
for default hereunder and for breach of any promise or inducement shall be
limited to a suit for specific performance, declaratory judgment, and/or
injunctive relief.
SECTION 25
FORCE MAJEURE
-------------
Whenever a day is appointed herein on which, or a period of time is appointed in
which, either party hereto is required to do or complete any act, matter or
thing, the time for the doing or completion thereof shall be extended by a
period of time equal to the number of days on or during which such party is
prevented from or is unreasonably interfered with, the doing or completion of
such act, matter or thing because of labor disputes, civil commotion, war,
warlike operation, sabotage, governmental regulations or control, fire or other
casualty, inability to obtain any materials, or to obtain fuel or energy,
weather or other acts of God, terrorism, or bioterrorism, or other causes beyond
Page -30-
such party's reasonable control (financial inability excepted); provided,
however, that nothing contained herein shall excuse Tenant from the prompt
payment of any rent or charge required of Tenant hereunder.
SECTION 26

SECTION 27
HOLDOVER TENANCY
-------------
In the event of holding over by Tenant after the expiration of the Term of this
Lease (the "Expiration Date"), or in the event Tenant continues to occupy the
Premises after the termination of Tenant's right of possession pursuant to
Section 21.2, Tenant shall throughout the entire holdover period pay rent equal
to two hundred percent (200%) of the Base Rent, which would have been applicable
had the Term of this Lease continued through such holding over by Tenant. If
Tenant remains in possession of all or any part of the Premises after the
expiration of the Lease Term, with the express written consent of Landlord: (i)
such tenancy will be deemed to be a periodic tenancy from month-to-month only;
(ii) such tenancy will not constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease for
Page -31-
any further term; and (iii) such tenancy may be terminated by Landlord upon the
earlier of thirty (30) days prior written notice or the earliest date permitted
by law. Such month-to-month tenancy will be subject to every other term,
condition, and covenant contained in this Lease including the Base Rent and
Additional Rent provisions. Nothing contained in this Section 27 shall be
construed as consent by Landlord to any holding over of the Premises by Tenant,
and Landlord expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender
possession of the Premises to Landlord upon the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, despite demand to do so by
Landlord, Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss or
liability, including, without limitation, any claim made by any succeeding
tenant founded on or resulting from such failure to surrender.
SECTION 28
REMEDIES CUMULATIVE

contained in this Lease nor any acts of the parties hereto shall be deemed to
create any relationship between Landlord and Tenant other than the relationship
of landlord and tenant.
SECTION 34

The parties hereto warrant that they have had no dealings with any broker or
agent in connection with this Lease other than the Broker, for which Landlord

receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, heir, legatee, devisee, or any
other person whomsoever without the express prior written consent of Landlord.
SECTION 38
GENERAL PROVISIONS
------------------
1.84 Captions. The captions appearing at the commencement of the Sections hereof
are descriptive only and for convenience of reference to this Lease and in no
way whatsoever define, limit or describe the scope or intent of this Lease, nor
in any way affect this Lease.
1.85 Pronouns. Masculine or feminine pronouns shall be substituted for the
neuter form and vice versa, and the plural shall be substituted for the singular
form and vice versa, in any place or places herein in which the context requires
such substitution(s).
1.86 Governing Law. The laws of the State of Nevada shall govern the validity,
construction, performance, enforcement and effect of this Lease. Any legal
action under this Lease or in any way pertaining to this Lease must be
instituted and maintained in ▇▇▇▇▇ County, Nevada. The exclusive venue of any
action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Lease shall be
▇▇▇▇▇ County, Nevada. Each party hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction of
any court of competent subject matter jurisdiction sitting in ▇▇▇▇▇ County,
Nevada, and to the service of process in accordance with the laws of the State
of Nevada and any rules applicable to such court.
1.87 Words of Obligation. Whenever in this Lease any words of obligation or duty
are used in connection with either party, such words shall have the same force
and effect as though framed in the form of express covenants on the part of the
party obligated.
1.88 Joint and Several Liability. In the event Tenant now or hereafter shall
consist of more than one person, firm or corporation, then and in such event,
all such persons, firms or corporations shall be jointly and severally liable as
Tenant hereunder.
1.89 Execution of Lease. The submission of this Lease for examination does not
constitute a reservation of or option to lease the Premises; this Lease becomes
effective as a Lease only upon execution by Landlord and delivery thereof by
Landlord to Tenant.
21.0.1 Deposit. Upon acceptance of Tenant's offer to lease under the terms
Page -33-
hereof and receipt by Landlord of a deposit in connection with Tenant's
submission of said offer, Landlord shall be entitled to retain such deposit and
apply same to damages, costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in the event
Tenant fails to occupy the Premises, and subject to Landlord completing the
Landlord's Work in accordance with Exhibit C. If Landlord declines said offer,
any such deposit shall be returned to Tenant.
1.90 Notice of Claim. Should any claim or lien be filed against the Premises, or
any action or proceeding be instituted affecting the title to the Premises,
Tenant shall give Landlord written notice thereof as soon as Tenant obtains
actual or constructive knowledge thereof.
1.91 Neutral Construction. This Lease shall not be construed either for or
against Landlord or Tenant, but this Lease shall be interpreted in accordance
with the general tenor of its language.
1.92 Construction Allowance. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that Landlord has
bargained for Tenant's full and faithful compliance with the terms of the Lease,
and Tenant's full and faithful payment of all Base Rent, Additional Rent and
other charges and monies to be paid by Tenant. Therefore, if Landlord has
granted Tenant any construction allowance, Tenant Improvement Allowance, free
rent, or other monetary concession, all such concessions and/or benefits to
Tenant shall be effective only so long as Tenant is not in default of any term,
covenant or provision of this Lease. Thus, should Tenant default hereunder, in
addition to any amounts owing from Tenant to Landlord as a result of such
default, the full amount of any such construction allowance, Tenant Improvement
Allowance, free rent and/or other monetary concession shall be immediately due
and payable by Tenant to Landlord upon demand. If such default by Tenant occurs
after the first full Lease Year of the Term, the total amount provided to Tenant
as construction allowance or Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be reimbursed to
Landlord, equitably prorated in proportion to the balance of the Lease Term, any
free rent or other monetary concessions shall be reimbursed to Landlord in full.
1.93 Third Party Beneficiary Status. Tenant acknowledges that, by entering into
this Lease with Landlord, Tenant has not become a third party beneficiary of any
lease between Landlord and any other tenant of the Property, and that no part of
the inducement to Tenant to enter into this Lease was any promise or covenant of
Landlord, express or implied, to enforce any other lease for the benefit of
Tenant.
1.94 Limited Liability. The obligations of Landlord under this Lease do not
constitute personal obligations of Landlord, or its members, managers, partners,
directors, officers, or shareholders, and Tenant shall look solely to Landlord's
interest in the Property and to no other assets of Landlord for satisfaction of
any liability with respect to this Lease and will not seek recourse against the
members, managers, partners, directors, officers, or shareholders of Landlord
herein, nor against any of their personal assets for such satisfaction.
SECTION 39
OPTION TO EXTEND
--------------
1.95 Extension Term. Provided Tenant is in compliance with each and every term,
covenant and condition of this Lease at the time that Tenant notifies Landlord
of its intent to exercise its Option to Extend, as defined herein, and on the
commencement date of any extension granted hereby, Tenant shall have the right
and option to extend this Lease ("Option to Extend") for one (1) consecutive
additional term of five (5) years ("Extension Term").
21.0.1 Commencement Date. The Extension Term
shall commence at the expiration of the original Term of this Lease.
1.96 Notice of Election. The Option to Extend shall be exercised by Tenant
giving Landlord notice in writing of such election to extend at least nine (9)
months, but not more than twelve (12) months, prior to the expiration of the
original Term.

the same terms, covenants, and conditions as provided herein for the original
Term, except that the Base Rent provided in Section
Page -34-
1.1.5 of the Lease shall be determined in accordance with this Section. The
Base Rent payable by Tenant during the initial year of the Extension Term shall
be equal to the fair market rental value of the Premises ("FMV"), as defined
below, as of the commencement date of the Extension Term.
nn. Within thirty (30) days following the Tenant's notification to
exercise its Option to Extend, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with Landlord's
good faith determination of the FMV for the Premises for the applicable
Extension Term ("Landlord's Determination"). Tenant shall have thirty (30) days
following receipt of Landlord's Determination to elect to proceed with the
exercise of its Option to Extend by executing an amendment to this Lease,
reflecting the adjustment to Base Rent.
b. As used herein, the term "FMV" shall mean the average annual rental,
expressed as a rate per rentable square foot, which a willing, comparable,
non-equity, Tenant would pay for comparable space, and that a willing Landlord,
exercising reasonable business judgment, would accept, at arms-length for
comparable space in a comparable building product type, comparable business park
environment, limited to facilities and proximity to amenities within the Green
Valley and airport sub-markets, as evidenced where possible by leases that
commence or are to commence on or about the commencement of the applicable
Extension Term ("Comparison Leases"), adjusted to account for variations between
this Lease and the Comparison Leases with respect to all relevant terms and
conditions, including, without limitation, the brokerage commissions, and tenant
improvements or tenant allowances, the age and quality of construction of the
Building and the relative credit worthiness and financial strength of Tenant as
compared to the tenants under Comparison Leases.
1.97 Termination of Option to Extend. The Option to Extend shall automatically
terminate and become null and void upon the earlier to occur of: (i) the
termination of Tenant's right to possession of the Premises; (ii) the assignment
by Tenant of this Lease, in whole or in part, excepting therefrom to Permitted
Assignees; (iii) the sublease by Tenant of all or any part of the Premises,
excepting therefrom to Permitted Assignees; (iv) the recapture by Landlord of
all or any portion of the Premises under Section 21; or (v) the failure of
Tenant to timely or properly exercise the Option to Extend.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Lease as of the
date set forth above.

Tenant a final written accounting of the Work Costs, completed in accordance
with the Final Plans (inclusive of Changes, if any), and a reconciliation of
such costs with the Allowance and Additional Allowance, if Tenant elects to use

8. Delays
------
8.1 Tenant Delay. Any one or more of the following, which causes Landlord
to be delayed in substantially completing the Tenant Improvements shall be
deemed to be a "Tenant Delay":
12. Tenant's failure to complete any action item which is the
responsibility of Tenant on or before the due date specified in Section 6 above
to the extent that such failure is not caused by failure of Landlord to timely
perform its obligations in accordance with the schedule in Section 6; or
13. Tenant's changes to Final Plans after the final submission date in
Section 6(iii) above; or
i. any delay of Tenant in making payment to Landlord of the Tenant
Improvement Overage or Tenant Additional Payments as provided in Section 4.3 and
Section 4.5 above, relating to changes to Final Plans above; or
ii. any delay, requested or caused by Tenant.
In the event of a Tenant Delay, so long as Landlord notifies Tenant that a
Tenant Delay has occurred within five (5) business days of the date of the event
causing such delay, the Occupancy Date shall be accelerated to the date that
Landlord would have Substantially Completed the Tenant Improvements, but for
such Tenant Delay. If for any reason Landlord cannot deliver possession of the
Premises to Tenant on or before the Occupancy Date, the Lease will not be void
or voidable, and Landlord will not be liable to Tenant for any resultant loss or
damage, except as otherwise provided herein.
7.2 Force Majeure Delay. The Occupancy Date shall be delayed by one
(1) day for each day of delay that is caused by any Force Majeure Delay or
Landlord Delay. No Landlord Delay (defined below), Force Majeure Delay or
Tenant Delay shall be deemed to have occurred unless and until the party
claiming such delay has provided written notice to the other party specifying
the action or inaction that such notifying party contends constitutes a Landlord
Delay, Force Majeure Delay or Tenant Delay, as applicable. If such action or
inaction is not cured within one (1) day of receipt of such notice, then a
Landlord Delay, Force Majeure Delay or Tenant Delay, as set forth in such notice
shall be deemed to have occurred commencing as of the date such notice is
received and continuing for the number of days the design of the Tenant
Improvements and/or Tenant's move-in into the Premises was in fact delayed as a
direct result of such action or inaction.
The term "Force Majeure" as used in this Work Letter shall mean any delay
incurred by Tenant in the design of its Tenant Improvements or its move-in into
the Premises attributable to any: (i) actual delay or failure to perform
attributable to any strike, lockout or other labor or industrial disturbance
(whether or not on the part of the employee of either party hereto), civil
disturbance, further order claiming jurisdiction, act of public enemy, war,
riot, sabotage, blockade, embargo; (ii) delay due to changes in any Applicable
Laws (including, without limitation, the ADA); or (iii) delay attributable to
lightning, earthquake, fire, storm, hurricane, tornado, flood, washout,
explosion, or any other similar industry-wide or Building-wide cause beyond the
reasonable control of the party from whom performance is required, or any of its
contractors or other representatives. Any prevention, delay or stoppage due to
any Force Majeure Delay shall excuse the performance of the party affected for a
period of time equal to any such prevention, delay or stoppage (except the
obligations of either party to pay money, including rental and other charges,
pursuant to the Lease).
7.3 Landlord Delay. The term "Landlord Delay" as used in this Work
Letter shall mean any delay in the design of the Tenant Improvements or Tenant's
move-in into the Premises which is due to any act or omission of Landlord
(wrongful, negligent or otherwise), its agents or contractors. The term
Landlord Delay shall include, but shall not be limited to any: (i) delay in the
giving of authorizations or approvals by Landlord; (ii) delay attributable to
the acts or failures to act, whether willful, negligent or otherwise, of
Landlord, its agents or contractors; and (iii) delay attributable to Landlord
giving the Designer incorrect Building requirement plans, or revision made to
such Building requirement or subsequent to the delivery of such items to Tenant.
In the event that, at any time and for any reason, Tenant elects not to proceed
with or to suspend (i) the design or construction of the Tenant Improvements, or
(ii) move into the Premises, then, such election shall not require any further
performance of Landlord under the Lease or this Work Letter, until Tenant
resumes its obligations under this Work Letter, and shall not result in an Event
of Default by Landlord. The only economic consequence to Tenant as a result of
such election shall be that the Occupancy Date shall be accelerated for the days
Landlord would have Substantially Completed the Tenant Improvements, but for
Tenant's suspension of Tenant Improvements and Tenant's obligation to pay all
rent shall begin in accordance with Section 1.1.9 of the Lease.
9. Miscellaneous
-------------
Any default by either party under the terms of this Work Letter shall
constitute a default under the Lease and shall entitle either party to exercise
all remedies set forth therein. Both Landlord and Tenant agree to use
reasonable diligence in performing all of their respective obligations and
duties under this Work Letter and in proceeding with the construction and
completion of the Building and all Tenant Improvements in the Premises.
