                                               (a)          a statement setting forth (i) the actual Annual Operating Costs for the previous calendar year of the Term and (ii) a calculation of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the increase above the Base Year Costs (the “Expense Statement”): and

Tenant shall have the right at reasonable times to examine the records used in making the aforestated determinations, upon written notice in advance; provided, however, such disputed amount shall have been paid by Tenant to Landlord.

Each such policy shall provide that it shall not be cancelable without at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord and to any mortgagee named in an endorsement thereto and shall be issued by an insurer and in a form satisfactory to Landlord.

                      b)          Landlord shall maintain throughout the term of this Lease commercial general liability insurance for the Common Facilities in such amount as Landlord, in its reasonable judgment, deems appropriate.
 
                       c)          Waiver of Subrogation. The parties to this Lease each release the other, to the extent of the releasing party’s insurance coverage, from any and all liability for any loss or damage covered by such insurance which may be inflicted upon the property of such party even if such loss or damage shall be brought about by the fault or negligence of the other party, its agents or employees. If any policy does not permit such a release of liability and a waiver of subrogation, and if the party to benefit therefrom requests that such a waiver be obtained, the other party agrees to obtain an endorsement to its insurance policies permitting such waiver of subrogation if it is available. If an additional premium is charged for such waiver, the party benefiting therefrom agrees to pay the amount of such additional premium promptly upon demand. In the event a party is unable to obtain such a waiver, it shall immediately notify the other party of its inability. In the absence o£ such notifications, each party shall be deemed to have obtained such waiver of subrogation.

                       d)          Increase of Premiums. Tenant will not do anything or fail to do anything or permit anything to be done which will cause the cost of Landlord’s insurance to increase or which will prevent Landlord from procuring insurance (including but not limited to public liability insurance) from companies, and in a form, satisfactory to Landlord. If any breach of this subsection (c) by Tenant shall cause the rate of fire or other insurance to be increased, Tenant shall pay the amount of such increase as Additional Rent promptly upon demand. If Tenant does anything or fails to do anything or permits anything to be done for which insurance cannot be obtained, Landlord may terminate this Lease after reasonable notice and opportunity to cure.

Tenant shall not permit any waste, damage or injury to the Premises. Tenant shall not use or permit the use of any portion of the Common Facilities for other than their intended use as reasonably specified by the Landlord from time to time.
 
                       b)          Landlord shall, throughout the Term, make all necessary repairs to the Common Facilities, structural elements of the Premises and other improvements located on the Property and to maintain the plumbing, air conditioning and electrical systems, windows, floors, and all other items which constitute a part of the Premises and are installed or furnished by the Landlord; provided, however, that Landlord shall have no responsibility to make any repairs unless and until Landlord receives written notice of the need for such repair. Landlord shall keep and maintain all Common Facilities of the Property and any sidewalks, parking areas, curbs and access ways adjoining the Property in a clean and orderly condition, free of accumulation of dirt and rubbish and shall keep and maintain all landscaped areas within the Property in a neat and orderly condition. The expenses Landlord incurs in performing its obligations under this Paragraph 8(b) shall be included in the Annual Operating Costs under Section 6(b) above.

                      c)          Landlord shall not be liable for any damages to Tenant resulting from the quality, quantity, failure, unavailability or disruption of any Landlord’s Services beyond the reasonable control of Landlord.
 
                       d)          Landlord’s Services shall be provided in a manner consistent with the operation of comparable office buildings in the competitive area of the Building. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if (i) Landlord ceases to furnish any Landlord’s Service in the Building, and Tenant notifies Landlord of such cessation in writing (the “Interruption Notice”), (ii) such cessation does not arise as a result of the gross negligence of Tenant (iii) such cessation is not caused by a fire or other casualty (in which case Section 15 shall control), (iv) the repair or restoration of such service is reasonably within the control of Landlord, and (v) as a result of such cessation, the Premises or material portion thereof, is rendered untenantable (meaning that Tenant is unable to use the Premises or a substantial portion thereof in the normal course of its business) and Tenant, in fact ceases to use the Premises, or material portion thereof, then, commencing on the third (3rd) Business Day after the later to occur of the date the Premises (or material portion thereof) becomes untenantable, the date Tenant ceases to use such space and the date Tenant provides Landlord with an Interruption Notice, all Rent hereunder shall be abated on a per diem basis for each day of such interruption based upon the percentage of the Premises so rendered untenantable and not used by Tenant and such abatement shall continue until the date the Premises becomes tenantable again.

In making all repairs and restorations hereunder, and in fulfilling its obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize the disruption of Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of an interruption of Landlord’s Services involving imminent danger to persons or property, Tenant shall be permitted to take such actions as are reasonable under the circumstances to restore such services and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the actual cost incurred by Tenant in effectuating such restoration within fifteen (15) days after written demand therefor. If Landlord does not timely reimburse Tenant, Tenant may offset such costs against its rental obligations hereunder.

                       e)          The cost of capital improvements which Landlord shall install or construct, with Tenant’s prior written consent, for energy saving devices for the purpose of reducing operating expenses (as would be determined in the reasonable judgment of a landlord of a comparable building in the competitive area of the Building) shall be included in Annual Operating Costs, based upon the estimated life of the capital investment item, determined by Landlord in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and shall include a cost of capital funds adjustment equal to ten percent (10%) per year on the unamortized portion of all such costs. In no event shall Tenant pay Additional Rent attributable to the portion of the useful life of the capital improvement which falls outside the Term. Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such expenses shall be included in the calculation of Additional Rent.
 
          10.         Governmental Regulations.
 
                       a)          Landlord and Tenant shall comply with all laws, ordinances, notices, orders, rules, regulations and requirements of all federal, state and municipal government or any department, commission, board or officer thereof, or of the National Board of Fire Underwriters or any other body exercising similar functions, relating to the Premises or to the use or manner of use of the Property. Tenant shall not knowingly do or commit, or suffer to be done or committed anywhere in the Building, any act or thing contrary to any of the laws, ordinances, regulations and requirements referred to in this Section.

                       b)          In the event Landlord shall install or construct a capital improvement to the Building in compliance with governmental requirements which take effect after the commencement of the Term hereof, the cost of the capital improvement shall be included in Annual Operating Costs and shall be determined based upon the estimated life of the capital investment item, determined by Landlord in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and shall include a cost of capital funds adjustment equal to ten percent (10%) per year on the unamortized portion of all such costs. In no event shall Tenant pay Additional Rent attributable to the portion of the useful life of the capital improvement which falls outside the Term.

Except for the cost of the monument for signs to be erected at the Property, Tenant shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses associated with the erection of any signs upon the Premises and shall be obligated to obtain and provide to Landlord any and all necessary permits prior to the placement or erection of such signs.

          12.          Alterations, Additions and Fixtures.
 
                       a)          Tenant shall have the right to install in the Premises any trade fixtures; provided, however, that no such installation and no removal thereof shall be permitted which affects any structural component of the Building or Premises and that Tenant shall repair and restore any damage or injury to the Premises or the Property caused by installation or removal.
 
                       b)          Tenant shall not make or permit to be made any alterations, improvements or additions to the Premises or Property which affect the structural components of the Building without on each occasion first presenting plans and specifications to Landlord and obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, but may be conditioned upon compliance with reasonable requirements of Landlord including, without limitation, the filing of mechanics’ lien waivers by Tenant’s contractors and the submission of written evidence of adequate insurance coverage naming Landlord as an additional insured thereunder. All Tenant alterations, improvements or additions shall be made at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and (i) Tenant shall supply any necessary permits; (ii) Tenant shall take or cause to be taken all steps that are otherwise required by Section 13 of this Lease and that are required or permitted by law in order to avoid the imposition of any mechanic’s, laborer’s or materialman’s lien upon the Premises or the Property; (iii) Tenant shall use a contractor reasonably approved by Landlord; (iv) Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to avoid annoying or disturbing the occupants of the Building and of any adjoining real estate owned by Landlord; (v) Tenant shall cause the alterations, improvements or additions to be installed substantially in accordance with the approved plans and specifications and completed substantially according to a construction schedule approved by Landlord (if such approval was required under this Section 12); and (vi) Tenant shall provide insurance of the types and coverage amounts reasonably required by Landlord. Any and all alterations, improvements and additions to the Premises which are constructed, installed or otherwise made by Tenant shall be the property of Tenant until the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease; at that time all such alterations and additions other than trade fixtures and movable personal property shall remain on the Premises and become the Property of Landlord without payment by Landlord. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Landlord may withhold its approval to any proposed alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises in its absolute and sole discretion with respect to any such alteration, addition or improvement which Landlord determines involves any modification to the Building’s exterior or its structural systems, or any components thereof, impair the structural strength of the Building, reduce the value of the Property or are inconsistent with the standards of the Building.
 
          13.          Mechanic’s Liens. Tenant shall promptly pay any contractors and materialmen who supply labor, work or materials to Tenant at the Premises or the Property so as to minimize the possibility of a lien attaching to the Premises or the Property. Tenant shall take all steps permitted by law in order to avoid the imposition of any mechanic’s, laborer’s or materialman’s lien upon the Premises or the Property. Should any such lien or notice of lien be filed for work performed for Tenant other than by Landlord, Tenant shall cause such lien or notice of lien to be discharged of record by payment, deposit, bond or otherwise within twenty five (25) days after Tenant obtains knowledge of the filing thereof or after Tenant’s receipt of notice thereof, whichever is earlier, regardless of the validity of such lien or claim. If Tenant shall fail to cause such lien or claim to be discharged and removed from record within such twenty five (25) day period, then, without obligation to investigate the validity thereof and in addition to any other right or remedy Landlord may have, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, contest the lien or claim oil discharge it by payment, deposit, bond or otherwise; and Landlord shall be entitled to compel the prosecution of an action for the foreclosure of such lien by the lienor and to pay the amount of the judgment in favor of the lienor with interest and costs. Any amounts so paid by Landlord and all costs and expenses including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the respective dates of Landlord’s making such payment or incurring such cost or expense, which shall constitute Additional Rent payable hereunder promptly upon demand therefor. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, nothing in this Lease is intended to authorize Tenant to do or cause any work or labor to be done or any materials to be supplied for the account of Landlord, all of the same to be solely for Tenant’s account and at Tenant’s risk and expense. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, nothing contained in or contemplated by this Lease shall be deemed or construed in any way to constitute the consent or request by Landlord for the performance of any work or services or the furnishing of any materials for which any lien could be filed against the Premises or the Building or the Property or any part of any thereof, nor as giving Tenant any right, power or authority to contract or permit the performance of any work or services or the furnishing of any materials for which any lien could be filed against the Premises, the Building, the Property or any part of any thereof. Throughout this Lease the term “mechanic’s lien” is used to include any lien, encumbrance or charge levied or imposed upon the Premises or the Property or any interest therein or income therefrom on account of any mechanic’s, laborer’s or materialman’s lien or arising out of any debt or liability to or any claim or demand of any contractor, mechanic, supplier, materialman or laborer and shall include without limitation any mechanic’s notice of intention given to Landlord or Tenant, any stop order given to Landlord or Tenant, any notice of refusal to pay naming Landlord or Tenant and any injunctive or equitable action brought by any person entitled to any mechanic’s lien.

                       a)          Tenant shall permit Landlord and the authorized representatives of Landlord and of any mortgagee or any prospective mortgagee to enter the Premises at all reasonable times, with reasonable prior notice to Tenant, and with an authorized representative of Tenant, (except in the case of an emergency involving eminent danger to persons or property) for the purpose of making any necessary repairs to the Premises or to the Building and performing any work therein. During the progress of any work on the Premises or the Building, Landlord will use reasonable efforts to prevent inconvenience to Tenant, but shall not be liable for inconvenience, annoyance, disturbance, loss of business or other damage to Tenant by reason of making any repair or by bringing or storing materials, supplies, tools and equipment in the Premises during the performance of any work, and the obligations of Tenant under this Lease shall not be thereby affected in any manner whatsoever unless caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of the Landlord, its agents, contractors, or employees.
 
                       b)          Landlord (with an authorized representative of Tenant) shall have the right at all reasonable times to, with reasonable prior notice to Tenant, enter and to exhibit the Premises for the purpose of inspection or showing the Premises in connection with a sale or mortgage and, during the last nine (9) months of the Term, to exhibit the Premises to any prospective tenant.
 
          15.         Damage by Fire or Other Casualty.
 
                       a)          If all or any portion of the Premises or Building is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord whereupon Landlord shall, subject to the consent of Landlord’s then mortgagee (which shall be given or denied within forty five (45) days of the date of such casualty) and to the conditions set forth in this Section 15, repair, rebuild or replace such damage and restore the Premises and Building to substantially the same condition as they were in immediately prior to such damage or destruction; provided, however, that Landlord shall only be obligated to restore such damage or destruction to the extent of the proceeds of fire and other extended coverage insurance policies required hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Premises is destroyed or damaged to the extent that in Landlord’s sole reasonable judgment the Premises cannot be repaired or restored within one hundred eighty (180) days after such casualty, Landlord may, subject to the rights of Landlord’s then mortgagee, terminate this Lease as of the date of such casualty by written notice to Tenant within forty-five (45) days after the date of such casualty.

 
-13-
 
 
                       b)          The repair, rebuilding or replacement work shall be commenced promptly and completed with due diligence, taking into account the time reasonably required by Landlord to effect a settlement with, and procure insurance proceeds from, the insurer, and for delays beyond Landlord’s reasonable control. In the event Landlord elects or is obligated to repair or restore the Premises and fails to complete such repair and restoration on or before two hundred and forty (240) days after the date of such casualty, then Tenant may terminate this Lease upon three (3) Business Days prior written notice to Landlord.
 
                       c)          The net amount of any insurance proceeds recovered by reason of the damage or destruction of the Building (meaning the gross insurance proceeds excluding proceeds received pursuant to a rental coverage endorsement and the reasonable and out of pocket cost of adjusting the insurance claim and collecting the insurance proceeds) shall be applied towards the cost of restoration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease Agreement, if in Landlord’s reasonable opinion the net insurance proceeds will not be adequate to complete such restoration, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease as of the date of such casualty and all the unaccrued obligations of the parties hereto by sending a written notice of such termination to Tenant within 45 days after such casualty; provided, however, that Tenant may require Landlord, except during the last year of the Term (unless Tenant elects to extend the Term of this Lease in accordance with any right to renew pursuant to the terms of this Lease that Tenant may have at the time of such casualty even if the time for Tenant to notify Landlord of such election has not yet occurred, or if no such right exists, unless Tenant elects to extend the Lease for an additional five (5) year period upon the terms and conditions provided in Rider A as if such five (5) year period were an option period thereunder), to withdraw the notice of termination by agreeing to pay the cost of restoration in excess of the net insurance proceeds and by giving Landlord adequate security for such payment prior to the date reasonably agreed to by the parties. If the net insurance proceeds are more than adequate, the amount by which the net insurance proceeds exceed the cost of restoration will be retained by Landlord or applied to repayment of any mortgage secured by the Premises.
 
                       d)          Landlord’s obligation or election to restore the Premises under this Section and shall not, in any event, include the repair, restoration or replacement of the fixtures, improvements, alterations, furniture or any other personal property owned, installed, made by, or in the possession of Tenant, except to the extent covered by the Landlord’s insurance required under Section 15(e).
 
                      e)          Landlord shall maintain insurance against loss or damage to the Building by fire and such other casualties as are included within fire and extended coverage insurance on an all-risk insurance basis for the full replacement cost of the Building, together with a rental coverage endorsement or other comparable form of coverage. If Tenant is dispossessed of all or any portion of the Premises due to fire or other casualty, Tenant will receive an abatement of its Fixed Basic Rent and Additional Rent during the period Tenant is dispossessed according to the part of the Premises which is unusable by Tenant.
 
          16.          Non-Abatement of Rent. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, there shall be no abatement or reduction of the Fixed Basic Rent, Additional Rent or other sums payable hereunder for any cause whatsoever and this Lease shall not terminate, nor shall Tenant be entitled to surrender the Premises, in the event of fire, casualty or condemnation or any default by Landlord under this Lease.

 
-14-
 
 
          17.        Indemnification.
 
                       a)          Unless such loss, costs or damages were caused by negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its employees, agents or contractors, Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Landlord and its employees, agents and contractors harmless from any loss, costs and damages (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs) suffered by Landlord, its agents, employees or contractors, as a result of any claim by a third party, its agents, employees or contractors arising from Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises Tenant shall control the defense of such third party claim and shall have the right to designate counsel acceptable to Landlord, such approval not be unreasonably withheld, to assume the defense of any such third party claim on behalf of itself and Landlord. Landlord shall not have the right to settle any claim without the consent of Tenant. Tenant shall not have the right to settle any claim without Landlord’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld other than settlements strictly for money damages for which Tenant agrees to be responsible. This indemnity shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease,
 
                       b)          If Landlord brings any action under this Lease Agreement, Tenant agrees in each case to pay Landlord’s reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith; provided, however, the Landlord prevails in such action. If Tenant brings any action under this Lease, Landlord agrees in each case to pay Tenant’s reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs and expenses incurred by Tenant in connection therewith; provided, however, the Tenant prevails in such action.
 
          18.        Condemnation.
 
                       a)          Termination. If (i) all of the Premises are covered by a condemnation; or (ii) any of the Building or the Premises is covered by a condemnation and the Premises is rendered insufficient for the reasonable operation therein of Tenant’s business; or (iii) subject to the provisions of subsection 18(b)(i) hereof, any of the Property is covered by a condemnation and, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, it would be impractical or the condemnation proceeds are insufficient to restore the remainder of the Property; then, in any such event, this Lease shall terminate and all obligations hereunder shall cease as of the date upon which possession is taken by the condemnor. Upon such termination the Fixed Basic Rent and all Additional Rent herein reserved shall be apportioned and paid in full by Tenant to Landlord to that date and all such rent prepaid for periods beyond that date shall forthwith be repaid by Landlord to Tenant.
 
                       b)        Partial Condemnation.
 
                                   i)          If there is a partial condemnation and Landlord decides to terminate pursuant to subsection 18(a)(iii) hereof then Tenant may require Landlord, except during the last year of the Term (unless Tenant elects to extend the Term of this Lease in accordance with any right to renew, pursuant to the terms of this Lease that Tenant may have at the time of such condemnation, or if no such right exists, unless Tenant elects to extend the Lease for an additional five (5) year period upon the terms and conditions provided in Rider A as if such five (5) year period were an option period thereunder), to withdraw its notice of termination by: [A] giving Landlord written notice thereof within ten (10) days from transmission of Landlord’s notice to Tenant of Landlord’s intention to terminate, [B] agreeing to pay the cost of restoration in excess of the condemnation proceeds reduced by those sums reasonably expended by Landlord in collecting the condemnation proceeds, and [C] giving Landlord adequate security for such payment within such ten (10) day period.
 
                                   ii)          If there is a partial condemnation and this Lease has not been terminated pursuant to subsection (a) hereof, Landlord shall restore the Building and the improvements which are part of the Premises to a condition and size as nearly comparable as reasonably possible to the condition and size thereof immediately prior to the date upon which possession shall have been taken by the condemnor; provided, however, that Landlord shall only be obligated to restore such damage from condemnation to the extent possible with the award damage. If the condemnation proceeds are more than adequate to cover the cost of restoration and the Landlord’s expenses in collecting the condemnation proceeds, any excess proceeds shall be retained by Landlord or applied to repayment of any mortgage seured by the Premises.

 
-15-
 
 
                                   iii)          If there is a partial condemnation and this Lease has not been terminated by pursuant to subsection (a) hereof, the obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this Lease shall be unaffected by such condemnation except that there shall be an equitable abatement for the balance of the Term of the Fixed Basic Rent proportionate to he Premises so taken and taking into account the nature and effect of any taking of the Common Areas on the Premises, and Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall be recalculated, if necessary. In the event that the parties are unable to agree upon the amount of such abatement, either party may submit the issue to arbitration.
 
                       c)          Award. In the event of a condemnation affecting Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to make a claim against the condemnor for removal expenses and moving expenses, loss of business and any other claims Tenant may have; provided and to the extent, however, that such claims or payments do not reduce the sums otherwise payable by the condemnor to Landlord. Except as aforesaid, Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord and against the condemnor, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all claims against the condemnor including, without limitation, all claims for leasehold damages and diminution in value of Tenant’s leasehold interest.
 
          19.        Quiet Enjoyment. Tenant, upon paying the Fixed Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other charges herein required and observing and keeping all covenants, agreements and conditions of this Lease, shall quietly have and enjoy the Premises during the Term without hindrance or molestation by anyone claiming by or through Landlord, subject, however, to the exceptions, reservations and conditions of this Lease.
 
          20.        Rules and Regulations. The Landlord hereby reserves the right to prescribe, from time to time, at its sole discretion, reasonable rules and regulations (herein called the “Rules and Regulations”) attached hereto as Exhibit B governing the use and enjoyment of the Premises and the remainder of the Property. The Rules and Regulations shall not materially interfere with the Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the Premises in accordance with the provisions of this Lease for the Permitted Use and shall not increase or modify Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. In the event of a conflict between the Lease Agreement and such rules and regulations, the Lease Agreement shall control. The Tenant shall comply at all times with the Rules and Regulations and shall cause its agents, employees, invitees, visitors, and guests to do so, provided, such Rules and Regulations are uniformly enforced against all tenants in the Building.
 
          21.        Assignment and Sublease. Tenant may assign or sublease the within Lease to any party subject to the following:
 
                       a)          In the event Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublease seventy percent (70%) or more of the Premises to any other party, Tenant shall provide written notice of the terms and conditions of such assignment or sublease to Landlord prior to the effective date of any such sublease or assignment, and, prior to such effective date, the Landlord shall have the option, exercisable by written notice to Tenant within ten (10) business days of Landlord’s receipt of written notice from Tenant, to (i) recapture all of the Premises (“Recapture Space”) so that such prospective subtenant or assignee shall then become the sole tenant of Landlord hereunder, or (ii) recapture the Recapture Space for Landlord’s own use, whereupon, in either case, Tenant shall be fully released from any and all obligations hereunder with respect to the Recapture Space, or (iii) consent to such assignment or subleasing as provided in Section 21(b).

 
-16-
 
 
                       b)          In the event that the Landlord elects not to recapture the Recapture Space as hereinabove provided or in the event Tenant desires to sublease less than seventy percent (70%) of the Premises, the Tenant may nevertheless assign this Lease or sublet the whole or any portion of the Premises, subject to the Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, on the basis of the following terms and conditions:
 
                                     i)          The Tenant shall provide to the Landlord the name and address of the assignee or subtenant.
 
                                    ii)          The assignee or subtenant shall assume, by written instrument, all of the obligations of this Lease, and a copy of such assumption agreement shall be furnished to the Landlord within ten (10) days of its execution. Any sublease shall expressly acknowledge that said subtenant’s rights against Landlord shall be no greater than those of Tenant.
 
                                   iii)          The Tenant and each assignee shall be and remain liable for the observance of all the covenants and provisions of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the payment of Fixed Basic Rent and Additional Rent reserved herein, through the entire Term of this Lease, as the same may be renewed, extended or otherwise modified.
 
                                  iv)          The Tenant and any assignee shall promptly pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of the n et profit received from such subleasing or assignment.

Landlord shall have sixty (60) days next following its receipt of the written notice as to such Disposition in which to exercise the option to acquire Tenant’s interest by such Disposition, and the exercise of the option by Landlord shall be effected by notice to that effect sent to the Grantor; but nothing herein shall require Landlord to accept a particular Disposition or any Disposition, nor does the rejection of any one such offer of first refusal constitute a waiver or release of the obligation of the Grantor to submit other offers hereunder to Landlord. In the event Landlord accept such offer of first refusal, the transaction shall be consummated pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Disposition described in the notice to Landlord. In the event Landlord rejects such offer of first refusal, Grantor may consummate the Disposition with such other person, firm, or entity; but any decrease in price of more than two percent (2%) of the price sought from Landlord or any change in the terms of payment for such Disposition shall constitute a new transaction requiring a further option of first refusal to be given to Landlord hereunder.

Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of Landlord’s notice, Tenant shall reply by written notice either accepting the Additional Space on the same terms and conditions of the third party offer, or rejecting the same.
