Lessor’s insurance costs for the Project for the previous calendar year indicating the computation of Lessee’s proportionate share of the Insurance Amount for such calendar year and the payments made by Lessee during such calendar year. If Lessee’s aggregate estimated monthly payments actually paid to Lessor for the calendar year are greater than Lessee’s proportionate share of the Insurance Amount for such calendar year, Lessor shall promptly pay the excess to Lessee or shall apply the excess to any past due amounts owing from Lessee to Lessor; if the payments made are less than Lessee’s proportionate share, Lessee shall pay the difference to Lessor within ten (10) days of its receipt of such statement.

9. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.

9.1. RECONSTRUCTION OF PREMISES. If during the Term all or part of the Premises should be destroyed partially or totally by fire or other casualty, this Lease shall continue thereafter in full force and effect, except as hereinafter provided, and the Lessor shall cause the reconstruction of the Premises within the ninety (90) days following such destruction to substantially the same condition in which it existed at the time immediately preceding such destruction. Lessee’s obligation to pay rental to Lessor hereunder shall ▇▇▇▇▇ from the date of such destruction until completion of such reconstruction. Should the Premises be partially damaged or destroyed, rent shall be abated in the same proportion as the destruction affects Lessee’s ability to occupy and use the Premises for its intended purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor shall have thirty (30) days following the partial or total destruction of the Premises to elect in writing not to commence reconstruction, repair or replacement of the Premises. In the event of such an election by Lessor, this Lease shall be deemed terminated and of no further force or effect.

9.2. FORCE MAJEURE. If Lessor is bona fide delayed or hindered in or prevented from the performance of any term, covenant or act required in Section 9.1 by reason of strikes, labor troubles, inability to procure materials or services, power failure, sabotage, rebellion, war, act of God, or other reason of a like nature, any of which must be beyond the reasonable control of Lessor, financial inability excepted, then the performance of that term, covenant or act is excused for the period of the delay and the reconstruction period shall be deemed correspondingly extended.

9.3. ABATEMENT SOLE REMEDY. Except for abatement of rent, if any, Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor for any damage suffered by reason of any such damage, destruction, repair or restoration of the Premises.

10. REAL PROPERTY TAXES.

10.1. PAYMENT OF LESSEE’S PROPORTIONATE SHARE OF TAXES. Lessor shall pay all real property taxes applicable to the Premises; provided, however, that Lessee shall pay, as additional rent and in addition to all other charges due hereunder, Lessee’s proportionate share (as defined in Section 12) of real property taxes applicable to the Project (the “Real Property Tax Amount”). Lessee shall pay Lessor in advance its monthly estimated proportionate share of the Real Property Tax Amount, together with all applicable rental taxes due thereon, within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice from Lessor setting forth Lessor’s estimate of such amount. Within ninety (90) days following the end of each calendar year during the Term or as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible, Lessor shall furnish Lessee with a statement of all real property taxes relating to the Project for the previous calendar year indicating the computation of Lessee’s proportionate share of the Real Property Tax Amount for such calendar year and the payments made by Lessee during such calendar year. If Lessee’s aggregate estimated monthly payments actually paid to Lessor for the calendar year are greater than Lessee’s proportionate share of the Real Property Tax Amount for such calendar year, Lessor shall promptly pay the excess to Lessee or shall apply the excess to any past due amounts owing from Lessee to Lessor; if the payments made are less than Lessee’s proportionate share, Lessee shall pay the difference to Lessor within ten (10) days of its receipt of such statement. If the Term does not commence or expire concurrently with the commencement or expiration of the tax year, Lessee’s liability for real property taxes for the such partial year shall be prorated on an annual basis.

10.2. DEFINITION OF “REAL PROPERTY TAX”. As used herein, the term “real property tax” shall include any form of assessment, levy, or tax (other than inheritance or estate taxes), imposed by any authority having the direct or indirect power to tax, including any city, county, state, or federal government, or any school, agricultural, lighting, drainage, or other improvement district thereof, as against any legal or equitable interest of Lessor in the Premises, the Project and the real property of which the Premises and the Project are a part.

10.3. PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES.

(a) Lessee shall pay prior to delinquency all taxes assessed against and levied upon trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment, and all other personal property of Lessee contained in the Premises or elsewhere. When possible, Lessee shall cause said trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment, and all other personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real property of Lessor.

(b) If any of Lessee’s personal property shall be assessed and billed with Lessor’s real property, Lessee shall pay Lessor the taxes attributable to Lessee within ten (10) days after receipt of a written statement setting forth the taxes applicable to Lessee’s property.

11. COMMON AREA CHARGES. In addition to the rental and other charges herein provided to be paid by Lessee to Lessor, Lessee shall pay to Lessor, as additional rent and as Lessee’s share of the cost of maintaining, operating, repairing and managing the Project, Lessee’s proportionate share (as defined in Section 12) of the Total Common Area Charges (as hereinafter defined) for any calendar year during the Term (the “CAM Amount”). Lessee shall pay Lessor in advance its monthly estimated proportionate share (as described in Section 12) of the CAM Amount, together with all applicable rental taxes due thereon, within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice from Lessor setting forth Lessor’s estimate of such amount. Within ninety (90) days following the end of each calendar year during the Term or as soon thereafter as is

Lessee ¨

reasonably possible, Lessor shall furnish Lessee with a statement of all Total Common Area Charges for the Project for the previous calendar year indicating the computation of Lessee’s proportionate share of the CAM Amount for such calendar year and the payments made by Lessee during such calendar year. If Lessee’s aggregate estimated monthly payments actually paid to Lessor for the calendar year are greater than Lessee’s proportionate share of the CAM Amount for such calendar year, Lessor shall promptly pay the excess to Lessee or shall apply the excess to any past due amounts owing from Lessee to Lessor; if the payments made are less than Lessee’s proportionate share, Lessee shall pay the difference to Lessor within ten (10) days of its receipt of such statement. Total Common Area Charges shall consist of all costs and expenses of every type associated with the management, repair, maintenance, and insuring of the Common Areas including, without limitation, costs and expenses for the following: gardening and landscaping; utilities, water and sewer charges; premiums for liability, property damage and casualty insurance and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ compensation insurance; all personal property taxes levied on or attributable to personal property used in connection with the Common Areas; straight line depreciation on personal property owned by Lessor which is consumed in the operation or maintenance of the Common Areas; rental or lease payments paid by Lessor for rented or leased personal property used in the operation or maintenance of Common Areas; fees for required licenses and permits; refuse disposal charges; repairing, resurfacing, repaving, maintaining, painting, lighting, cleaning, refuse removal, security and similar items; repair and maintenance of exterior roofs and reserves for roof replacement and exterior painting of the Project and other appropriate reserves; and fees paid to property managers. Said Total Common Area Charges shall further include all charges for semi-annual preventive maintenance service of mechanical equipment including, without limitation, heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment, which is attributable to the Project, and the cost of lighting, maintenance and repair of the Project identification signs.

12. PROPORTIONATE SHARE. For purposes of Sections 8.10 and 10.1 and Section 11, Lessee’s proportionate share of the Insurance Amount, the Real Property Tax Amount and the CAM amount shall be a fraction, the numerator of which is the total gross rentable square footage of the Premises, and the denominator of which is the total gross rentable square footage of the entire Project, from time to time. The parties agree that as of the Commencement Date, Lessee’s proportionate share will be:

•

17% for CAM Charges, based on the total development square footage of 74,200

•

100% for Real Property Tax and other expenses allocable only to Lot 14 based on a developed square footage of 12,600.

•

25% for Insurance Charges and other expenses allocable only to Lot 11, 13 and 14 based on a developed square footage of 49,700.

13. UTILITIES; UTILITIES DEREGULATION.

13.1. LESSEE’S PAYMENT OBLIGATION. Lessee shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone, and other utilities and services supplied to the Premises, together with any taxes thereon.

13.2. LESSOR CONTROLS SELECTION. If permitted by law, Lessor shall have the right at any time and from time to time during the Term to contract for service from a company or companies providing electricity service different from the utility company currently providing electricity service to the Premises (each such different company shall hereinafter be referred to as an “Alternate Service Provider”).

13.3. LESSEE SHALL GIVE LESSOR ACCESS. Lessee shall cooperate with Lessor, the utility company currently providing electricity service to the Premises (the “Electric Service Provider”), and any Alternate Service Provider at all times and, as reasonably necessary, shall allow Lessor, Electric Service Provider and any Alternate Service Provider reasonable access to the Premises’ electric lines, feeders, risers, wiring, and any other machinery within the Premises.

13.4. LESSOR NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR INTERRUPTION OF SERVICE. Lessor shall in no way be liable or responsible for any loss, damage, or expense that Lessee may sustain or incur by reason of any change, failure, interference, disruption, or defect in the supply or character of the electric energy furnished to the Premises, or if the quantity or character of the electric energy supplied by the Electric Service Provider or any Alternate Service Provider is no longer available or suitable for Lessee’s requirements, and no such change, failure, defect, unavailability, or unsuitability shall constitute an actual or constructive eviction, in whole or in part, or entitle Lessee to any abatement or diminution of rent or additional rent, or relieve Lessee from any obligations under the Lease.

14. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

14.1. LESSOR’S CONSENT REQUIRED. Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operation of law, assign, transfer, mortgage, sublet, or otherwise transfer or encumber all or any part of Lessee’s interest in this Lease or in the Premises, without Lessor’s prior written consent. Any attempted assignment, transfer, mortgage, encumbrance, or subletting without such consent shall be void, and shall constitute a breach of this Lease.

14.2. NO RELEASE OF LESSEE. Regardless of Lessor’s consent, no subletting or assignment shall release Lessee of Lessee’s obligation or alter the primary liability of Lessee to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Lessee hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Lessor from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Lessor of any provision hereof. Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting.

15. DEFAULTS; REMEDIES.

Please Initial:

Lessor ¨

Lessee ¨

15.1. DEFAULTS. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a material default and breach of this Lease by Lessee:

(a) The failure by Lessee to make any payment of rent or any other payment required to be made by Lessee hereunder within ten (10) days of the date when due.

(b) The failure by Lessee to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Lessee, other than described in Section15.1(b) above, where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee.

(c) (i) The making by Lessee of any general assignment or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors; (ii) the filing by or against Lessee of a petition to have Lessee adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Lessee’s assets located at the Premises or of Lessee’s interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within thirty (30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution, or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Lessee’s assets located at the Premises or of Lessee’s interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days.

(d) The chronic delinquency by Lessee in the payment of monthly rental, or any other periodic payment required to be paid by Lessee under this Lease. “Chronic delinquency” shall mean failure by Lessee to pay monthly rental, or any other periodic payment required to be paid by Lessee under this Lease, within ten (10) days as described in Section 15.1(b) above, for any three (3) months (consecutive or nonconsecutive) during any twelve (12) month period. In the event of the chronic delinquency, at Lessor’s option, Lessor shall have the additional right to require that monthly rental be paid by Lessee quarter-annually, in advance, for the remainder of the Term.

(e) Any guarantor of the Lease revokes or otherwise terminates, or purports to revoke or otherwise terminate (by operation of law or otherwise) any guaranty of all or any portion of Lessee’s obligations under this Lease

15.2. REMEDIES. In the event of any such material default or breach by Lessee, Lessor may at any time thereafter, with or without notice or demand and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any other right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such default or breach:

(a) Terminate Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. In such event, Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages incurred by Lessor by reason of Lessee’s default including, but not limited to, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises; expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and any real estate commission actually paid; the “worth at the time of award” established by the court having jurisdiction thereof of the amount by which the unpaid rent and other charges due for the balance of the Term after the time of Lessee’s default exceeds the amount of such rental loss for the same period that Lessee proves by clear and convincing evidence could have been reasonably avoided; and that portion of the leasing commission paid by Lessor applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease. Unpaid installments of rent or other sums shall bear interest from the date due at the rate of 15% per annum. For purposes of this Section 15.2(a), “worth at the time of award” of the amount referred to above shall be computed by discounting each amount by a rate equal to the prime rate (or its equivalent) of Bank One at the time of the award, but in no event more than a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum.

(b) Re-enter the Premises, without terminating this Lease, and remove any property from the Premises in which case Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of Lessor’s rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent and all other amounts due hereunder as they become due. No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Lessor pursuant to this Section 15.2 or other action on Lessor’s part shall be construed as an election to terminate the Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Lessee or unless the termination thereof is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Lessor’s election not to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 15.2(b) or pursuant to any other provision of this Lease shall not preclude Lessor from subsequently electing to terminate this Lease or pursuing any of its other remedies.

(c) Maintain Lessee’s right to possession, in which case this Lease shall continue in effect, whether or not Lessee shall have abandoned the Premises. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of Lessor’s rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent and all other amounts due hereunder as they become due hereunder.

(d) Pursue any other or additional remedy now or hereafter available to Lessor under the laws or judicial decisions of the State of Arizona. The expiration or termination of this Lease and/or the termination of Lessee’s right to possession shall not relieve Lessee from liability under any indemnity provisions of this Lease as to matters occurring or accruing during the Term hereof or by reason of Lessee’s occupancy of the Premises.

The remedies set forth herein shall be deemed cumulative and not exclusive.

15.3. DEFAULT BY LESSOR. Lessor shall not be deemed in default unless Lessor fails to perform obligations required of Lessor within a reasonable time, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by Lessee to Lessor and to the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises whose name and address shall have theretofore been furnished to Lessee in writing specifying wherein Lessor has failed to perform such obligations; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance, then

Please Initial:

Lessor ¨

Lessee ¨

Lessor shall not be in default if Lessor commences performance within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. If Lessor does not perform, Lessor’s mortgagee may perform in Lessor’s place and Lessee must accept such performance. In no event shall Lessee have the right to terminate this Lease as a result of Lessor’s default, and Lessee’s remedies shall be limited to damages and/or an injunction.

15.4. LATE CHARGES. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee to Lessor of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Lessor by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or any other sum due from Lessee shall not be received by Lessor or Lessor’s designee on or before the date when due, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of such overdue amount but not exceeding $250.00 if paid within 10 days of the original due date. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee’s default with respect to such overdue amount nor prevent Lessor from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder.

16. CONDEMNATION. If less than twenty percent (20%) of the gross rentable floor area of the Premises is taken under the power of eminent domain, or sold under the threat of the exercise of said power (all of which are herein called “condemnation”), this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever occurs first, and in addition, Lessor shall have the option in such event to terminate this Lease in full by providing Lessee with written notice thereof within ten (10) days following the date when the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs. If twenty percent (20%) or more of the floor area of the Premises is taken by condemnation, either Lessor or Lessee may terminate this Lease by providing the other with written notice thereof within ten (10) days following the date when the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs. If neither Lessor or Lessee elects to terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining, except that the rent shall be reduced in the proportion that the gross rentable floor area taken bears to the total gross rentable floor area of the original Premises. Any award for the taking of all or any part of the Premises under the power of eminent domain or any payment made under threat of the exercise of such power shall be the property of Lessor, whether such award shall be made as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or for the taking of the fee, or as severance damages; provided, however, that Lessee shall be entitled to any award for loss or damage to Lessee’s trade fixtures and removable property. In the event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of such condemnation, Lessor shall, to the extent of severance damages actually received by Lessor in connection with such condemnation, repair any damage to the Premises caused by such condemnation except to the extent that Lessee has been reimbursed therefor by the condemning authority. Lessee shall pay any amount in excess of such severance damages required to complete such repair.

17. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

17.1. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.

(a) Lessee shall at any time upon not less than ten (10) days prior written notice from Lessor execute, acknowledge and deliver to Lessor a statement in writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and the date to which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any; (ii) acknowledging that there are not, to Lessee’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Lessor hereunder, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed; and (iii) setting forth such other statements with respect to this Lease as may be reasonably requested by Lessor. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Project.

(b) Lessee’s failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon Lessee (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Lessor, (ii) that there are no uncured defaults in Lessor’s performance, and (iii) that not more than one month’s rent has been paid in advance.

(c) If Lessor desires to finance or refinance the Project, or any part thereof, Lessee hereby agrees to deliver to any lender designated by Lessor such financial statements of Lessee as may be reasonably required by such lender. Such statements shall include the past three years’ financial statements of Lessee. All such financial statements shall be received by Lessor in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth.

17.2. LESSOR’S LIABILITY. The term “Lessor” as used herein shall mean only the owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title or a lessee’s interest in a ground lease of the Premises. In the event of any transfer of such title or interest, Lessor herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers the then grantor) shall be relieved from and after the date of such transfer of all liability as respects Lessor’s obligations thereafter to be performed, provided that any funds in the hands of Lessor or the then grantor at the time of such transfer, in which Lessee has an interest, shall be delivered to the grantee. The obligations contained in this Lease to be performed by Lessor shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on Lessor’s successors and assigns, only during their respective periods of ownership.

17.3. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall in no way affect the validity of any other provision hereof.

17.4. INTEREST ON PAST-DUE OBLIGATIONS Except as expressly herein provided, any amount due to Lessor not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of 15% per annum from the date due. Payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Lessee under this Lease.

17.9. MORTGAGEE PROTECTION

(a) If, in connection with obtaining financing for the Project or any portion thereof, Lessor’s lender shall request reasonable modifications to this Lease as a condition to such financing, Lessee shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or defer its consent to such modifications, provided such modifications do not materially adversely affect Lessee’s rights or increase Lessee’s obligations under this Lease.

(b) Lessee agrees to give to any trust deed or mortgage holder (“Holder”), by prepaid certified mail, return receipt requested, at the same time as it is given to Lessor, a copy of any notice of default given to Lessor, provided that prior to such notice Lessee has been notified, in writing, (by way of notice of assignment of rents and leases, or otherwise) of the address of such Holder. Lessee further agrees that if Lessor shall have failed to cure such default within the time provided for in this Lease, then the Holder shall have an additional twenty (20) days after expiration of such period, or after receipt of such notice from Lessee (if such notice to the Holder is required by this Section 17.9(b), whichever shall last occur, within which to cure such default or if such default cannot be cured within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if within such twenty (20) days, any Holder has commenced and is diligently pursuing the remedies necessary to cure such default (including but not limited to commencement of foreclosure proceedings, if necessary, to effect such cure), in which event this Lease shall not be terminated.

17.10. WAIVERS. No waiver by Lessor of any provision hereof shall be deemed a waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by Lessee of the same or any other provision. Lessor’s consent to or approval of any act shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor’s consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Lessee. The acceptance of rent hereunder by Lessor shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach by Lessee of any provision hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular rent so accepted, regardless of Lessor’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent.

17.11. RECORDING. Lessee shall not record this Lease without Lessor’s prior written consent, and such recordation shall, at the option of Lessor, constitute a non-curable default of Lessee hereunder.

17.12. HOLDING OVER. If Lessee remains in possession of the Premises or any part thereof after the expiration of the Term hereof, without the written consent of Lessor, such occupancy shall be a tenancy at sufferance, for which Lessee shall pay a monthly base rental of one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the monthly base rental in

effect immediately prior to the expiration of the Term plus all other charges payable hereunder, and upon all the terms hereof applicable to such a tenancy at sufferance.

17.13. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity.

17.14. COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. Each provision of this Lease performable by Lessee shall be deemed both a covenant and a condition.

17.15. BINDING EFFECT; CHOICE OF LAW. Subject to any provisions hereof restricting assignment or subletting and subject to the provisions of Section 17.2, this Lease shall bind the parties, their personal representatives, successors and assigns. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State of Arizona.

17.16. SUBORDINATION.

(a) This Lease, at Lessor’s option, shall be subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or any other hypothecation for security now or hereafter placed upon the Project and to any and all advances made on the security thereof and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof. If Lessor or any mortgagee, trustee, or ground lessor shall elect to have this Lease prior to the lien of a mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, and shall give written notice thereof to Lessee, this Lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, whether this Lease is dated prior or subsequent to the date of said mortgage, deed of trust, or ground lease or the date of recording thereof.

(b) Lessee agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate such subordination or to make this Lease prior to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, as the case may be, and failing to do so within ten (10) days after written demand, does hereby make, constitute, and irrevocably appoint Lessor as Lessee’s attorney in fact and in Lessee’s name, place and stead, to do so.

17.17. ATTORNEYS’ FEES. If either party brings an action to enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the prevailing party shall be entitled to its reasonable attorneys’ fees in any such action, on trial or appeal, to be paid by as fixed by the court. If Lessee or Lessor shall be in breach or default under this Lease, such party (the “Defaulting Party”) shall reimburse the other party (the “Nondefaulting Party”) upon demand for any costs or expenses that the Nondefaulting Party incurs in connection with any breach or default of the Defaulting Party under this Lease, whether or not suit is commenced or judgment entered. Such costs shall include reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred for the negotiation of a settlement, enforcement of rights or otherwise.

17.18. LESSOR’S ACCESS. Lessor and Lessor’s agents shall have the right to enter the Premises at reasonable times between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. weekdays for the purpose of inspecting the same, showing the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, consultants and other professionals and making such alterations, repairs, improvements, or additions to the Premises or to the building of which they are a part as Lessor may deem necessary or desirable. Except as specifically provided herein to the contrary, no entry by Lessor hereunder nor any work performed by Lessor to the Premises shall entitled Lessee to terminate this Lease or to a reduction or abatement of rent or other amounts owed by Lessee hereunder nor to any claim for damages. Lessor may at any time place on or about the Premises any ordinary “For Sale” and “For Lease” signs. Lessor and Lessor’s agent shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time in the case of an emergency.

17.19. SIGNS AND AUCTIONS. Lessee shall not place any sign upon the Premises or conduct any auction from the Premises without Lessor’s prior written consent.

17.20. MERGER. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee or a mutual cancellation thereof shall, at the option of Lessor, terminate all or any existing subtenancies or may, at the option of Lessor, operate as an assignment to Lessor of any or all of such subtenancies.

17.21. CORPORATE AUTHORITY. If Lessee is a corporation, a limited liability company, partnership or other entity, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of said entity represents and warrants that he is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of said entity, and that this Lease is binding upon said entity in accordance with its terms. If Lessee is a corporation, a limited liability company, partnership or other entity, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor, upon Lessee’s execution of this Lease, evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lessor of the authority of the person(s) signing this Lease on behalf of Lessee to do so and that Lessee has approved entering into this Lease. Such evidence may include a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors or members of said entity authorizing or ratifying the execution of this Lease.

18. PARKING AND COMMON AREAS. The Lessee, its agents, employees and invitees shall be entitled to park in common with other lessees of Lessor in the unreserved parking spaces at the Project providing that it agrees not to overburden the parking facilities of the Project and agrees to cooperate with the Lessor and other lessees in the use of the parking facilities. The Lessor specifically reserves the right, in its absolute discretion, to determine whether parking facilities are becoming overburdened and in such event to allocate the parking spaces among the Lessee and other lessees, their agents, employees, and business invitees using the parking facilities. All loading operations for receipt or shipment of goods, wares and merchandise by the Lessee shall be done in the rear of the Premises or in such area therein which is specifically designated in writing by the Lessor.
