Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, obtain any and all governmental or quasi-governmental approvals and permits necessary to use all or any portion of the Premises for manufacturing purposes. Prior to Tenant’s receipt of such approvals and permits, Tenant shall not use the Premises or any portion thereof for manufacturing purposes. Landlord makes no representations or warranties with respect to Tenant’s proposed use of a portion of the Premises for any manufacturing purpose, and Tenant’s obligations under this Lease shall in no manner be contingent upon Tenant’s receipt of any such permits or approvals. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with any requirements of any governmental or quasi-governmental entities as a condition to the use of the Premises or portion thereof for manufacturing purposes.

B. If any governmental license, permit or registration shall be required for the proper and lawful conduct of the Tenant’s business or other activity carried on the Premises, and if the failure to secure such license or permit would, in any way, affect the Landlord, the Tenant, at the Tenant’s expense, shall duly procure and thereafter maintain such license or permit and submit the same to inspection by the Landlord. The Tenant, at the Tenant’s expense, shall, at all times, comply with the terms and conditions of each such license or permit.

C.

The Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of subparagraph B below, make all submissions to, provide all information to, and comply with all requirements of, the Industrial Site Evaluation or its successor (“Element”) of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection or its successors (“NJDEP”).

B. The Tenant’s obligations under this Section 11 shall arise if there is any closing, terminating or transferring of operations of an industrial establishment at the Premises pursuant to ISRA, whether triggered by the Landlord or the Tenant. If triggered by the Tenant, the Landlord agrees to pay the cost of any inspection, removal and/or cleanup required by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection as a result of any condition predating the Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises such as but not limited to asbestos, transformers, discharges from underground storage tanks, etc. In the event the Landlord should sell the Premises or the Premises should be otherwise sold or transferred pursuant to ISRA, or compliance with ISRA is triggered by Landlord, the Landlord shall assume all of the obligations set forth in subparagraph A above at its own expenses except that the Tenant agrees to provide the Landlord with any information relating to the Tenant’s operations that may be required in order to fulfill such obligations and the Tenant shall pay the cost of any inspection, removal and/or cleanup required by the NJDEP as a result of any condition arising only out of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises.

C. Provided this Lease is not previously canceled or terminated by either party or by operation of law, the Tenant shall commence its submission to the Element in anticipation of the end of the Lease Term no later than the dates provided for in the provisions of this Lease. The Tenant shall promptly furnish to the Landlord true and complete copies of all documents, submissions, correspondence and oral or written communications provided by Tenant to the Element, and all documents, reports, directives, correspondence and oral or written communications by the Element to the Tenant. The Tenant shall also promptly furnish to the Landlord true and complete copies of all sampling and test results and reports obtained and prepared from samples and tests taken at and around the Premises. The Tenant shall notify the Landlord in advance of all meetings scheduled between the Tenant and NJDEP, and the Landlord may attend all such meetings.

D. Should the Element or any other division of NJDEP determine that a cleanup plan be prepared and that a cleanup be undertaken because of a spill or discharge of a hazardous substance or waste by the Tenant at the Premises which occurred during the Term, then in such event, the Tenant shall, at the Tenant’s own expense, promptly prepare and submit the required plans and financial assurances and shall promptly carry out the approved plans.

E. If required by the Element, at no expense to the Landlord, the Tenant shall promptly provide all information requested by the Landlord or NJDEP for preparation of a nonapplicability affidavit, de minimis quantity exemption application, limited conveyance application or other submission and shall promptly sign such affidavits and submissions when requested by the Landlord or NJDEP.

Should the Tenant not obtain a letter of nonapplicability or de minimis quantity exemption from the Element, then the Tenant shall, at the Landlord’s option, hire a consultant satisfactory to the Landlord to undertake investigation at the Premises sufficient to determine whether or not the Tenant’s operations have resulted in a spill or discharge of a hazardous substance or waste at or around the Premises. The cost of this investigation shall be borne by the Tenant.

G. If the Tenant fails to obtain either: (i) a nonapplicability letter; (ii) a de minimis quantity exemption; (iii) a negative declaration; or (iv) final approval of cleanup; (collectively referred to as “ISRA Clearance”) from the Element; or fails to clean up the Premises pursuant to subparagraph F above, prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, then upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, the Landlord shall have the option either to consider the Lease as having ended or to treat the Tenant as a holdover tenant in possession of the Premises. If the Landlord considers the lease as having ended, then the Tenant shall nevertheless be obligated to promptly obtain ISRA Clearance and to fulfill the obligations set forth in subparagraph F above. If the Landlord treats the Tenant as a holdover tenant in possession of the Premises, until such time as the Tenant obtains ISRA Clearance and fulfills its obligations under subparagraph F above, and during the holdover period all of the terms of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect in addition to all statutory remedies available to the available to the Landlord.

H. The Tenant represents and warrants to the Landlord that the Tenant intends to use the Premises solely for the Permitted Use, which operations have the North American Industrial Classification Number as defined by the most recent edition of the North American Industrial Classification Manual published by the Federal Executive Office of the President, Office of Management and Budget .

Such waiver or release shall include any deductible, retention and self-insured loss or damage. Such waiver or release shall be effective without regard to whether such required policy was in effect and without regard to the availability of coverage or limits of liability under any such policy.

The foregoing provisions shall inure to the benefit of any such owner, mortgagee or holder, shall apply to the tenancy of the Tenant and shall be self-operative upon any such demand, without requiring any further instrument to give effect to said provisions. The Tenant, however, upon demand of any such owner, mortgagee or holder, agrees to execute, from time to time, an instrument in confirmation of the foregoing provisions, satisfactory to such owner, mortgagee or holder, in which the Tenant shall acknowledge such attornment and shall set forth the terms and conditions of its tenancy, which shall be the same as those set forth herein and shall apply for the remainder of the Term of this Lease, provided that said owner, mortgagee or holder acknowledges Tenant’s rights under this Section 19.B. Nothing contained in this Section 19.B. shall be construed to impair any right, privilege or option of any such owner, mortgagee or holder, except as aforesaid.

C. The Tenant agrees that in the event the interest of the Landlord becomes vested in the holder of any mortgagee or in any ground lessor, or in anyone claiming by, through or under either of them, then such holder shall not be:

(1) liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including the landlord herein); or

(2) subject to any offsets or defenses which the Tenant may have against any prior landlord (including the Landlord herein) except as otherwise permitted under Section 3.C; or

(3) bound by any Rent which the Tenant may have paid for more than the current month to any landlord (including the Landlord herein).

D.

F. The Tenant shall default in the due keeping, observing or performance of any covenant, agreement, term, provision or condition of this Lease on the part of the Tenant to be kept, observed or performed, other than a default for the payment of Rent, as set forth in Section 22.E. and if such default shall continue and shall not be remedied by the Tenant within thirty (30) days after the Landlord shall have given to the Tenant a written notice specifying the same, or, in the case of such a default which for causes beyond the Tenant’s control cannot with due diligence be cured within said period of thirty (30) days, if the Tenant (1) shall not, promptly upon giving of such notice, advise the Landlord in writing of the Tenant’s intention to duly institute all steps necessary to remedy such default, (2) shall not duly institute and thereafter diligently prosecute to completion all steps necessary to remedy the same, or (3) shall not remedy the same within a reasonable time after the date of the giving of said notice by the Landlord.

23. RE-ENTRY BY LANDLORD.

A. If the Tenant shall default in the payment of any Rent payable hereunder by the Tenant to the Landlord on any date upon which the same becomes due, and if such default shall continue for thirty (30) days or if this Lease shall expire and terminate as in Section 22 provided, the Landlord, or the Landlord’s agents and servants may immediately or at any time thereafter re-enter into or upon the Premises, or any part thereof, either by summary dispossess proceedings or by any suitable action or proceeding at law, or by force or otherwise, without being liable to indictment, prosecution or damages therefor, and may repossess the same, and may remove any persons therefrom, to the end that the Landlord may have, hold and enjoy the Premises again as and of its first estate and interest therein. The words “reenter”, “re-entry” and “re-entered” as used in this Lease are not restricted to their technical legal meanings. In the event of the termination of this Lease under the provisions of Section 22, or in the event that the landlord shall re-enter the Premises under the provisions of this Section 23 or in the event of the termination of this Lease (or of re-entry) by or under any summary dispossess or other proceeding or action or any provision of law, the Tenant shall thereupon pay to the Landlord the Rent payable hereunder by the Tenant to the Landlord up to the time of such termination of this Lease, or of such recovery of possession of the Premises by the Landlord, as the case may be, and shall also pay to the Landlord damages as provided in Section 24.

B. In the event of a breach or threatened breach on the part of the Tenant with respect to any of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions or conditions on the part of or on behalf of the Tenant to be kept, observed or performed, the Landlord shall also have the right of injunction. The specified remedies to which the Landlord may resort hereunder are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies or means of redress to which the Landlord may lawfully be entitled at any time, and the Landlord may invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity as if specific remedies were not herein provided for.

C. In the event of (1) the termination of this Lease under the provisions of Section 22 hereof, (2) the re-entry of the Premises by’ the Landlord under the provisions of this Section 23, or (3) the termination of this Lease (or re-entry) by or under any summary dispossess or other proceeding or action or any provision of law by reason of default hereunder on the part of the Tenant, the Landlord shall be entitled to retain all moneys, if any, paid by the Tenant to the Landlord, whether as advance Rent or otherwise, but such moneys shall be credited by the Landlord against any Rent due from the Tenant at the time of such termination or re-entry or, at the Landlord’s option, against any damages payable by the Tenant under Section 24 or pursuant to law.

24. DAMAGES.

A. In the event of any termination of this Lease under the provisions of Section 22 or in the event that the Landlord shall re-enter the Premises under the provisions of Section 23 or in the event of the termination of this Lease (or of re-entry) by or under any summary dispossess or other proceeding or action or any provision of law, the Tenant will pay to the Landlord as damages, at the election of the landlord, either:

(1) A sum which at the time of such termination of this Lease or at the time of any such re-entry by the Landlord, as the case may be, represents the excess, if any, of (i) the aggregate of all Rent which would have been payable hereunder by the Tenant had this Lease not so terminated for the period commencing with such earlier termination of this Lease or the date of any such re-entry, as the case may be, and ending with the date hereinbefore set for the expiration of the full Term hereby granted (not including the Renewal Term, if it was not exercised), over (ii) the aggregate of all Rent of the Premises for the same period based upon the then local market rental value of the Premises; or

(2) Sums equal to the aggregate of all Rent which would have been payable by the Tenant had this Lease not so terminated, or had the Landlord not so re-entered the Premises, payable upon the due dates therefor specified herein following such termination or such re-entry and until the date hereinbefore set for expiration of the full Term hereby granted; provided, however, that if the Landlord shall re-let all or any part of the Premises for all or any part of said period, the Landlord shall credit the Tenant with the net Rents received by the Landlord from such re-letting, such net Rents to be determined by first deducting from the gross Rents as and when received by the Landlord from such re-letting the reasonable expenses incurred or paid by the Landlord in terminating this Lease or of re-entering the Premises and of securing possession thereof, as well as the reasonable expenses of re-letting, including altering and preparing the Premises for new tenants, brokers’ commissions and all other similar or dissimilar expenses properly chargeable against the Premises and the rental therefrom in connection with such re-letting, it being understood that any such re-letting may be for a period equal to or shorter or longer than the remaining Term of this Lease; provided, further, that (i) in no event shall the Tenant be entitled to receive any excess of such net Rents over the sums payable by the Tenant to the Landlord hereunder, (ii) in no event shall the Tenant be entitled in any suit for the collection of damages pursuant to this subsection (2) to a credit in respect of any net Rents from a re-letting except to the extent that such net Rents are actually received by the Landlord prior to the commencement of such suit, and (iii) if the Premises or any part thereof should be re-let in combination with other space, then proper apportionment on a square foot area basis shall be made of the Rent received from such re-letting and of the expenses of re-letting.

B. For the purposes of Section 24.A., the amount of Additional Rent which would have been payable by the Tenant under Section 5 hereof for such lease year and/or tax year (as those terms are herein defined) ending after such termination of this Lease or such re-entry shall be deemed to be an amount equal to the amount of such Additional Rent payable by the Tenant for the lease year and/or tax year (as the case may be) ending immediately preceding such termination of this Lease or such reentry. Suit or suits for the recovery of such damages, or any installments thereof, may be brought by the Landlord from time to time at its election, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require the Landlord to postpone suit until the date when the Term of this Lease would have expired if it had not been terminated under the provisions of Section 22, or under any provision of law, or had the Landlord not re-entered the Premises.

C. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as limiting or precluding the recovery by the Landlord against the Tenant of any sums or damages to which, in addition to the damages particularly provided above, the Landlord may lawfully be entitled by reason of any default hereunder on the part of the Tenant.

D. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Landlord re-enters the Premises and/or dispossesses Tenant under Sections 22 or 23, Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to re-let the Premises.

25. LEASE CONTAINS ALL AGREEMENTS. This Lease contains all of the covenants, terms, provisions and conditions relating to the leasing of the Premises hereunder, and the Landlord has not made and is not making, and the Tenant, in executing and delivering this Lease is not relying upon, any warranties, representations, promises, or statements, except to the extent that the same may expressly be set forth in this Lease.

26. NO WAIVERS.

A. No receipt of money by the Landlord from the Tenant with knowledge of the breach of any covenant or agreement of this Lease, or after the termination hereof, or after the service of any notice, or after the commencement of any suit, or after final judgment for possession of the demised Premises, shall be deemed a waiver of such breach, nor shall it reinstate, continue or extend the Term of this Lease or affect any such notice, demand or suit.

B. No delay on the part of the Landlord or the Tenant in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or to seek redress for violation of, or to insist upon strict performance of any covenant or condition of this Lease, or of any of the Rules and Regulations, shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

C. No act done or thing said by the Landlord or the Landlord’s agents shall constitute a cancellation, termination or modification of, or eviction or surrender under, this Lease, or a waiver of any covenant, condition or provision hereof, nor relieve the Tenant of the Tenant’s obligation to pay the Rent hereunder. Any acceptance of surrender, waiver or release by the Landlord and any cancellation, termination or modification of this Lease must be in writing signed by the Landlord by its duly authorized representative. The delivery of keys to any employee or agent of the Landlord shall not operate as a surrender or as a termination of this Lease, and no such employee or agent shall have any power to accept such keys prior to the termination of this Lease.

D. The Tenant hereby expressly waives service of any notice of the Landlord’s intention to re-enter. The Tenant hereby further waives any and all rights to recover or regain possession of the demised Premises or to reinstate or to redeem the Lease as permitted or provided by or under any statute, law or decision now or hereafter in force and effect.

E. No failure by the Landlord to enforce any of the Rules and Regulations against the Tenant and/or any other tenant or occupancy of the Building shall be deemed a waiver thereof. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed waived by the Landlord unless such waiver be in writing signed by the Landlord.

F. No payment by the Tenant or receipt by the Landlord of a lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated and reserved shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated Rent then due and payable, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check, or letter accompanying any Rent check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and the Landlord may accept the same without prejudice to the Landlord’s right to recover any balance due or to pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.

27. PARTIES BOUND. The covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease shall bind and benefit the respective successors, assigns and legal representatives of the parties hereto with the same effect as if mentioned in each instance where a party hereto is named or referred to, except that no violation of the provisions of Section 26 shall operate to vest any rights in any successor, assignee or legal representative of the Tenant and that the provisions of this Section 27 shall not be construed as modifying the conditions of limitation contained in Section 22 hereof. It is understood and agreed, however, that the covenants and obligations on the part of the Landlord under this Lease shall not be binding upon the Landlord herein named with respect to any period subsequent to the transfer of its interest in the Building, that in the event of such transfer said covenants and obligations shall thereafter be binding upon each transferee of such interest of the Landlord herein named, but only with respect to the period ending with a subsequent transfer of such interest, and that a lease of the entire interest shall be deemed a transfer within the meaning of this Section 27.

28. CURING TENANT’S DEFAULTS. If the Tenant shall default in the performance of any covenant, agreement, term, provision or condition herein contained, the Landlord, without thereby waiving such default, may perform the same for the account and at the expense of the Tenant, without notice in case of an emergency and in any other case if such default continues after the expiration of the applicable grace period provided for in Section 22 of this Lease. Bills for any expense incurred by the Landlord in connection with any such performance by the Landlord for the account of the Tenant, and bills for all costs, expenses and disbursements of every kind and nature whatsoever, including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees, involved in collecting or endeavoring to collect the Rent or any part thereof or enforcing or endeavoring to enforce any rights against the Tenant, under or in connection with this Lease, or pursuant to law, including (without being limited to) any such cost, expense and disbursement involved in instituting and prosecuting summary proceedings, as well as bills for any property, material, labor or services provided, furnished or rendered, or caused to be provided, furnished or rendered, by the Landlord to the Tenant, including (without being limited to), electric lamps and other equipment, construction work done for the account of the Tenant, as well as for any charges for any additional building services incurred under the terms of this Lease and any charges for other similar or dissimilar services incurred under this Lease, may be sent by the Landlord to the Tenant monthly, or immediately, at the Landlord’s option, and shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms of said bills, and if not paid when due, the amounts thereof shall immediately become due and payable as Additional Rent under this Lease.

29. MISCELLANEOUS.

E. The words “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder”, “hereafter” and words of similar import refer to this Lease as a whole and not to any particular section or subdivision thereof.

F. Unless otherwise set forth herein, whenever the Landlord’s consent or approval is required under this Lease, the Landlord agrees that such consent or approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed at such times as the Tenant is not in default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease beyond the applicable grace period provided herein. This paragraph shall not apply to any provision in this Lease which expressly permits the Landlord to arbitrarily withhold its consent or approval.

G. Any brokers’ or similar fees, commissions or expenses incurred in connection with this Lease shall be paid by the Landlord, and Tenant shall have no obligation or liability with respect thereto.

30. INABILITY TO PERFORM. This Lease and the obligations of the Tenant to pay Rent hereunder and perform all of the other covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions hereunder on the part of the Tenant to be performed shall in no way be affected, impaired or excused because the Landlord is unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this Lease or is unable to supply or is delayed in supplying any service expressly or impliedly to be supplied or is unable to make or is delayed in making any repairs, replacements, additions, alterations or decorations or is unable to supply or is delayed in supplying any equipment or fixtures if the Landlord is prevented or delayed from so doing by reason of strikes or labor troubles or any other similar or dissimilar cause whatsoever beyond the Landlord’s control, including, but not limited to, governmental preemption in connection with a national emergency or by reason of any rule, order or regulation of any department or subdivision thereof of any governmental agency or by reason of the conditions of supply and demand which have been or are affected by war or other emergency, or by reason of any fire or other casualty or act of God.

If the Tenant remains in possession of the demised Premises, or any part thereof, after the then Termination Date by lapse of time, failure to give timely notice to extend or otherwise, such holding over shall, at the election of the Landlord expressed in a written notice to the Tenant and not otherwise, constitute an extension of this Lease on a month to month basis at the Minimum Rent as increased by the full CPI payable by the Tenant on the first day of each and every month, together with Additional Rent and other charges as provided herein. The provisions of this Section 33 do not exclude the Landlord’s rights of re-entry or any other right hereunder.

Landlord’s responsibility for the cost of maintaining the roof of the Building shall expressly be limited to maintaining the roof to the standard of a roof for a typical office building, as opposed to Tenant’s specific manufacturing use, at any time with the Tenant bearing any additional necessary costs for such maintenance pertaining to Tenant’s specific manufacturing use. Tenant shall, upon request by Landlord, provide Landlord with maintenance records of all aspects of the Premises or the Building, the maintenance of which is performed by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease.

B. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in the Lease to the contrary, in all instances where Tenant is required to indemnify, defend, and hold Landlord harmless, Landlord agrees to give prompt notice to the Tenant of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action, or proceeding by any party, in respect of which indemnity may be sought by Landlord hereunder specifying with reasonable particularity the basis therefor, and providing the Tenant with any information with respect thereto that the Tenant may reasonably request. The Tenant may, at its own cost and expense, (i) participate in, and, (ii) assume the defense thereof, provided, however, that the Tenant’s counsel is reasonably satisfactory to the Landlord, and the Tenant shall thereafter consult with the Landlord upon the Landlord’s reasonable request for such consultation from time to time with respect to such claim, suit, action, or proceeding. If the Tenant assumes such defense, the Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation) to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own cost and expense, separate form the counsel employed by the Tenant. Whether or not the Landlord chooses to defend or prosecute any such claim, suit, action or proceeding, the Landlord and the Tenant shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Any settlement or compromise made or caused to be made by the Tenant or the Landlord of any such claim, suit, action, or proceeding shall also be binding upon the Tenant or the Landlord, as the case may be, in the same manner as if a final judgment or decree had been entered by a court of competent jurisdiction in the amount of such settlement or comprise, provided, however, that no party shall settle or compromise any such claim, suit, action, or proceeding without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In the event Tenant does not elect to assume the defense of any claim, suit, action, or proceeding within a reasonable time of being notified by Landlord, then such failure shall not relieve the Tenant or Landlord or their respective obligations hereunder.

The Tenant agrees to replace all of the existing windows in the Building. The Landlord will pay the Tenant $100,000 of such total cost to replace such existing windows within 30 days after the completion of such window replacement project.
