or as directed from time to time by Landlord’s notice, the monthly amounts as outlined in Exhibit “D” in advance promptly on the first day of every calendar month of the term, except for the first month’s rent which is due and payable on execution, and pro rata, in advance, for any partial month, without demand, the same being hereby waived and without any set-off on deduction whatsoever. Interest at the per annum rate of 10% will be charged retroactive to the first day of the month for rents not paid by the tenth (10^th) of the calendar month. Landlord shall notify tenant in writing of late payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing no late payment penalty shall be payable by Tenant until Tenant has received two late payment notices within a twelve

calendar month, period. Following receipt of the second late payment notice, late payment penalties shall be payable by Tenant for all late payments made in the twelve month period following the second notice. If no late payments are made in such period, the requirement for two notices shall again apply.

     (b) It is understood that the Base Rent specified in Exhibit “D” does not anticipate any increase in the amount of taxes on the Property. There fore, in order that the rental payable throughout the term of the lease shall reflect any such increase the parties agree as hereinafter in the Section set forth. The annual Base Rent payable pursuant to Exhibit “D” as increased pursuant to Paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section is hereinafter called the “Rent”. Certain terms are defined as follows:

     Tenant’s Share: For each calendar year commencing with the calendar year following the Base Year, the amount of the Tenant’s pro rata share of the increase in Taxes for the business complex over the Base Year. The Tenant’s Share is agreed to be 27% of such increase for increases in Taxes covering Building 91 and Building 91A. Tenant has the right to contest property taxes should the Landlord not contest such taxes and Tenant shall be given copies of all tax bills.

     Base Year: The Base Year for Taxes as to each separate tax, shall be the fiscal tax year ending 2001. For purposes of computing tax escalation “Base Year” and the comparison year for “Taxes” will be the fiscal tax year separately determined for each separate tax comprising “Taxes”.

     Taxes: (i) All real estate taxes, payable (adjusted after protest or litigation, if any) for any part of the term of this lease, exclusive or discounts, on the Property, (ii) any taxes which shall be levied in lieu of any such taxes or which shall be levied on the gross rentals of the Property computed, in each instance, as if the Building were the sole asset of Landlord, (iii) any special assessments against the property which shall be required to be paid during the calendar year in respect to which taxes are being determined, and (iv) without duplication, the expense of contesting the amount or validity of any such taxes, charges or assessments, such expense to be applicable to the period of the item contested and to be apportioned, to the extent appropriate, the Landlord reserves the right to re-compute the additional rent due hereunder in the event of a reduction of Taxes for the Base Year and the Tenant agrees to pay such additional rent when billed.

     (c) In order to provide for current payments on account of an increase in the Taxes over the Base Year the Tenant agrees, at Landlord’s request, to pay, as additional rent, Tenant’s Share due for the ensuing twelve (12) months, as reasonably estimated by Landlord from time to time, in twelve (12) monthly installments, each in an amount equal to 1/12^th of Tenant’s Share so estimate by Landlord commencing on the first day of the month following the month in which Landlord notifies Tenant of the amount of such estimated Tenant’s Share. If, as finally determined, Tenant’s Share shall be greater than or be less than the aggregate of all installments so paid on account to the Landlord for such twelve (12) month period, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such underpayment, or the Landlord shall credit Tenant for the amount of such overpayment, as the case may be. It is the intention hereunder to estimate the Amount of

Taxes for each year and then to adjust such estimate in the following year based on actual Taxes incurred and/or paid by Landlord. The obligation of the Landlord and Tenant with respect to the payment of Rent shall survive the expiration or termination of this lease. Any payment, refund, or credit made pursuant to this Paragraph (c) shall be made without prejudice to any right of the Tenant to dispute, or of the Landlord to correct, any item(s) as billed pursuant to the provisions hereof.

     (d) Upon receipt of the Landlord’s statement, Tenant does hereby covenant and agree promptly to pay the increases in Rent pursuant to Paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section as and when the same shall become due and payable, without further demand therefor, and without any set-off or deduction whatsoever. Failure to give such statement shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of its right to require an increase in Rent nor shall such failure deprive Tenant of a decrease in Rent, as the case may be.

     (e) Within ninety (90) days after receipt of such statement, Tenant or its authorized employee shall have the right to inspect the books of Landlord during the business hours of Landlord at Landlord’s office in the Building or, at Landlord’s option, at such other location that Landlord may specify, for the purpose of verifying information in such statement. Unless Tenant asserts specific error(s) within one hundred-eighty (180) days after delivery of such statement, the statement shall be deemed to be correct.

     (f) No decrease in Taxes shall reduce Tenant’s Rent below the annual Base Rent sot forth in Exhibit “D”.

     (g) Tenant will cause the Premises to be insured against toss or damage by fire and such other hazards, risks and matters covered under so called “all-risk” insurance for the full amount of the replacement cost of the improvements on the Premises (exclusive of foundations). Beginning with calendar year 2002, all policies of insurance shall be issued by insurers reasonably acceptable to Tenant and shall be for limits and upon terms in each instance reasonably acceptable to Tenant.

     (h) All costs and expenses which Tenant assumes or agrees to pay to Landlord pursuant to this lease shall be deemed additional rent and, in the event of non-payment thereof, Landlord shall have all the rights and remedies herein provided for in case of non-payment of Rent.

2. SERVICES

     The Tenant shall provide, at Tenant’s expense, except as otherwise provided, the Following services:

     Services set forth in Exhibit “B” attached hereto and made a part hereof.

     It is understood that Tenant does not warrant that any of the services referred to above, or any other services which Tenant may supply, will be free from interruption, Landlord acknowledging that any one or more such services may be suspended by reason of accident or of repairs, alterations or improvements necessary to be made, or by strikes or lockouts, or by reason of operation of law, or causes beyond the reasonable control of Tenant. Any such interruption or discontinuance of service shall never be deemed a default, or render Tenant liable to Landlord for damages, or relieve Landlord from performance of Landlord’s obligation under this lease.

3. QUIET ENJOYMENT

     (b) If the Tenant defaults in the payment of Rent and such default continues for ten (10) days after notice, or defaults in the prompt and full performance of any other provision of this lease and such default continues for thirty (30) days after notice, provided, however, if such default cannot readily be cured within such thirty day period, the Tenant shall not be in default provided that within such thirty day period, the Tenant commences the work required to cure such default and thereafter prosecutes such work to completion with diligence and continuity, or if the leasehold interest of the Tenant be levied upon under execution or be attached by process

of law, or if the Tenant abandons the premises, then and in any such event the Landlord may, at its election, either terminate the lease and the Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises or, without terminating this lease, endeavor to relet the Premises. Nothing in this article 15 contained shall be construed so as to relieve the Tenant of any obligation, including the payment of Rent, as provided in this lease.

     (c) Upon any termination of this lease, the Tenant shall surrender possession and vacate the Premises immediately, and deliver possession thereof to the Landlord, and hereby grants to the Landlord full and free license to enter into and upon the Premises in such event with or without process of law and to repossess the Landlord of the Premises as of the Landlord’s former estate and to expel or remove the Tenant and any others who may be occupying or with the Premises and to remove any and all property therefrom, using such force as may be necessary, without being deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction or forcible entry or detainer, and without relinquishing the Landlord’s right to Rent or any other right given to the Liindlord hereunder or by operation of law.

     (d) If the Tenant abandons the Premises, and the Landlord elects, without terminating the lease, to endeavor to relet the Premises, the Landlord may, at the Landlord’s option enter into the Premises, remove the Tenant’s signs and other evidence of tenancy, and take and hold possession thereof as in Paragraph (c) of this Section provided, without such entry and possession terminating the lease or releasing the Tenant, in whole or in part, from the Tenant’s obligation to pay the Rent hereunder for the full term as hereinafter provided. Upon and after entry into possession without termination of the lease, the Landlord may relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account of the Tenant to any person, firm or corporation other than the Tenant for such rent, for such time and upon such terms as the Landlord shall determine, to be reasonable. In any such case, the Landlord may make repairs, alterations and additions in or to the Premises, and redecorate the same to the extent deemed by the Landlord necessary or desirable, and the Tenant shall, upon demand, pay the cost thereof, together with the Landlord’s expenses of the reletting. If the consideration collected by the Landlord upon any such reletting for the Tenant’s account is not sufficient to pay monthly the full amount of the Rent reserved in this lease, together with the cost of repairs, alterations, additions, redecorating and the Landlord’s expenses, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord the amount of each monthly deficiency upon demand.

     (e) If the Landlord elects to terminate this lease in any of the contingencies specified in this Section, it being understood that the Landlord may elect to terminate the lease after and notwithstanding its election to terminate the Tenant’s right to possession as in Paragraph (b) of this Section provided, the Landlord shall forthwith upon such termination be entitled to recover as damages, and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the then present value of the Rent and additional rent provided in this lease for the residue of the stated term hereof, less the present value of the fair rental value of the Premises for the residue of the stated term.

     (f) Any and all property which may be removed from the Premises by the Landlord pursuant to the authority of the lease or of law, to which the Tenant is or may be entitled, may be handled, removed or stored by the Landlord at the risk, cost and expense of the Tenant, and the Landlord shall in no event be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord, upon demand, any and all expenses incurred in such removal

and all storage charges against such property so long as the same shall be in the Landlord’s possession or under the Landlord’s control. Any such property of the Tenant not removed from the Premises or not retaken from storage by the Tenant within thirty (30) days after the end of the term or of the Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises, however terminated, shall be conclusively deemed to have been forever abandoned by the Tenant and either may be retained by Landlord as its property or may be disposed of in such manner as Landlord may see fit.

     (g) The Tenant agrees that if it shall at any time fail to make any payment or perform any other act on its part to be made or performed under this lease, the Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, and after reasonable notice and demand and without waiving, or releasing the Tenant from, any obligation under this lease, make such payment or perform such other act to the extent the Landlord may deem desirable, and in connection therewith to pay expenses and employ counsel. The Tenant agrees to pay a reasonable attorney’s fee if legal action is required to enforce performance by Tenant of any condition, obligation or requirement hereunder and if Landlord is successful in this action. All sums so paid by the Landlord and all expenses in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the rate of 10% per annum from the date of payment, shall be deemed additional rent hereunder and payable at the time of any installment of Rent thereafter becoming due and the Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies for the non-payment thereof, or of any other additional rent, as in the case of default in the payment of Rent.

16. SUBORDINATION OF LEASE

     The rights of the Tenant under this lease shall be and are subject and subordinate at all times to all ground leases, and/or underlying leases, if any, now or hereafter in force against the Property, and to the lien of any mortgage or mortgages now or hereafter in force against such leases and/or the Property, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security thereof, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof, provided that the Landlord under any such ground or underlying lease shall agree that insurance proceeds may be applied to restoration of the improvements on the Premises in accordance with the provisions of this lease, and that upon the termination of such lease or any leasehold estate through which this lease is derived that such Landlord will accept the attornment of Tenant under this lease, and any renewal terms of this lease, provided Tenant attorns to such Landlord, for the balance of the term of this lease, upon all the executory provisions of this lease, and in the case of the holder of any mortgage or mortgages against the property, that such holder agrees that insurance proceeds may be applied to restoration of the improvements on the Premises in accordance with the provisions of this lease, and that such holder agrees that the Tenant under this lease will not be joined in any foreclosure proceedings for the purpose of cutting off the leasehold estate of Tenant in this lease and that thereby Tenant’s possession of the Premises shall remain undisturbed notwithstanding the institution or prosecution of any such foreclosure proceeding. This Section is self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination Tenant shall promptly execute such further instruments as may be requested by the Landlord. The Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints the Landlord as attorney-in-fact for the Tenant with full power and authority to execute and deliver in the name of the Tenant any such instrument or instruments.
