Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Sublandlord has not tendered beneficial occupancy of the Subleased Premises to Subtenant with the Subleasehold Improvements substantially complete on or before June 1, 2014, then until such time as Sublandlord tenders beneficial occupancy of the Subleased Premises to Subtenant with the Subleasehold Improvements substantially complete, either Sublandlord or Subtenant shall have the option to terminate this Sublease by delivering written notice of such election. Following delivery of such notice, all prepaid sums by the Subtenant (including prepaid rent and security deposit) shall be returned to Subtenant, this Sublease shall immediately terminate and the parties shall have no further obligations hereunder.

Base Rent shall be due and payable in equal monthly installments. Each such installment shall be due and payable in advance on the first day of each calendar month of the term hereof.

(b) All Base Rent and additional rent shall be paid without any notice, setoff or deduction whatsoever, and shall be paid to Sublandlord at its address set forth in Section 15 below or at such other place as Sublandlord may designate by notice to Subtenant.

(d) Sublandlord and Subtenant stipulate that the rentable square footage of the Subleased Premises shall be 6,377 for all purposes of this Sublease and, notwithstanding any provision of the Prime Lease to the contrary, shall not be subject to remeasurement.

4.Additional Rent; Payments; Interest.

(a) In addition to the Base Rent described above, commencing on March 1, 2014, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord additional rent with respect to the Subleased Premises on account of Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes in accordance with the provisions of the Prime Lease; provided, however, that Subtenant shall be liable only for increases in Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes above a calendar year 2013 base year. Subtenant’s share of the Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes shall be determined in accordance with Section 4.1(b) of the Prime Lease, except that the term “Premises” as used therein shall be deemed to refer to the Subleased Premises.

(b) Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord all other amounts payable by Sublandlord under the Prime Lease to the extent the same are attributable to the Subleased Premises (as distinguished from the Master Premises generally) or attributable to Subtenant, its agents, employees, customers or invitees. By way of example and not by way of limitation, charges by Landlord for furnishing air conditioning or heating to the Subleased Premises at times in addition to those certain times specified in the Prime Lease, charges by Landlord for supplemental heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment or the use thereof, costs incurred by Landlord in repairing damage to the Building caused by an employee of Subtenant, increased insurance premiums due as a result of Subtenant’s use of the Subleased Premises, and amounts expended or incurred by Landlord on account of any default by Subtenant which gives rise to a default under the Prime Lease would be amounts payable by Subtenant pursuant to this Section 4(b).

(c) Each amount due pursuant to Section 4(a) and 4(b) above and each other amount payable by Subtenant hereunder, unless a date for payment of such amount is provided for elsewhere in this Sublease, shall be due and payable on the tenth (10th) day following the date on which Landlord or Sublandlord has given notice to Subtenant of the amount thereof, but in no event later than the date on which any such amount is due and payable under the Prime Lease.

(d) All amounts other than Base Rent payable to Sublandlord under this Sublease shall be deemed to be additional rent due under this Sublease. All past due installments of Base Rent and additional rent shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the rate per annum equal to three (3) percentage points in excess of any interest rate that is applicable to late payments pursuant to the Prime Lease, unless a lesser rate shall then be the maximum rate permissible by law with respect thereto, in which event said lesser rate shall be charged. All past due installments of Base Rent and additional rent shall be subject to the same late charges as are applicable to late payments under the Prime Lease.
    
(e) Subtenant shall pay directly to Landlord on or before the applicable due dates for all services requested by Subtenant that are billed by Landlord directly to Subtenant rather than through Sublandlord. All amounts charged by Landlord to consent to this Sublease and to approve the Subleasehold Improvements will be paid by Sublandlord without reimbursement by Subtenant.

5.
Condition of Subleased Premises and Construction of Improvements.

(a) Subtenant accepts the Subleased Premises in their current “as-is” condition; provided, however, that prior to the Commencement Date, Sublandlord, at its cost, will build-out the Subleased Premises in accordance with the space plan attached hereto as Exhibit B and the scope of work attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 (the “Subleasehold Improvements”).

(b) Subtenant’s taking possession of the Subleased Premises shall be conclusive evidence as against Subtenant that the Subleased Premises were in good order and satisfactory condition when Subtenant took possession. Upon the expiration of the term hereof, or upon any earlier termination of the term hereof or of Subtenant’s right to possession, Subtenant shall surrender the Subleased Premises in at least as good condition as at the commencement of the term hereof, ordinary wear and tear and (subject to the terms of this Sublease) damage by casualty and condemnation excepted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall remain obligated to complete any Punch List Work. “Punch List Work” shall mean minor adjustments or repairs to the Subleasehold Improvements and/or items of incomplete Subleasehold Improvements that do not prevent the Subtenant from occupying the Subleased Premises for the normal conduct of its business.

(c)    Upon substantial completion of the Subleasehold Improvements, Sublandlord or its representative shall prepare a detailed list of Punch List Work to be corrected; and Sublandlord shall deliver a copy of the detailed punch list to Subtenant at its address for notices in this Sublease. Sublandlord and Subtenant shall schedule a Punch List Work walk through at which Sublandlord or its representative and Subtenant or its representative shall be present to discuss the list of Punch List Work. All Punch List Work shall be completed promptly following the Punch List Work walk through.

(ii) Neither rental nor other payments hereunder shall abate by reason of any damage to or destruction of the Subleased Premises, the Master Premises or the Building or any part thereof, unless, and then only to the extent that, rental and such other payments actually abate under the Prime Lease with respect to the Subleased Premises on account of such event;

(iii) Subtenant shall not have any right to any portion of the proceeds of any award for a condemnation or other taking, or a conveyance in lieu thereof, of all or any portion of the Building, the Master Premises or the Subleased Premises;

With respect to work, services, repairs and restoration or the performance of other obligations required of Landlord under the Prime Lease, Sublandlord’s sole obligation with respect thereto shall be to promptly request the same, upon written request from Subtenant, and to use reasonable efforts to obtain the same from Landlord, at no expense to Sublandlord. Sublandlord shall not be liable in damages, nor shall rent abate hereunder, for or on account of any failure by Landlord to perform the obligations and duties imposed on it under the Prime Lease.

Sublandlord agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Subtenant and its officers, directors, partners, agents and employees from and against any and all claims, demands, costs and expenses of every kind and nature, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses, arising from any breach or default on the part of Sublandlord in the performance of any agreement or covenant of Sublandlord to be performed or performed by it under this Sublease or pursuant to the terms of this Sublease.

If Subtenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Sublease to be performed by it, said security deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Subtenant (or, at Sublandlord’s option, to the last assignee of Subtenant’s interest hereunder) within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the term and Subtenant’s vacation of the Subleased Premises. Nothing herein shall be construed to limit the amount of damages recoverable by Sublandlord or any other remedy to the security deposit.

In the event the Letter of Credit is ever not renewed when required hereunder, Sublandlord shall have the right to draw upon the Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds thereof as a cash security deposit.

18.Parking. During the term of this Sublease, Subtenant shall have the right to purchase two (2) monthly parking permits in the Building’s parking garage for each 1,000 square feet of rentable area in the Subleased Premises, upon the terms and conditions set forth in Article XXIV of the Prime Lease.

Subtenant shall coordinate payment, parking permits, and parking vouchers directly with Landlord or the operator of the Building’s parking garage.
19.Furniture; Telephone and Data.
(a) Throughout the term of this Sublease, Subtenant shall be permitted to use the furniture located in the Subleased Premises on the date of this Sublease (the “Furniture”), which furniture is described on Exhibit C hereto, at no additional charge or fee to Subtenant. The Furniture is provided in its “as-is” condition upon delivery of the Subleased Premises. Subtenant shall maintain the Furniture in good condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and shall leave the Furniture in the Subleased Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease. Sublandlord shall have no liability for moving the Furniture or any of Subtenant’s own personal property.
(b) Sublandlord may remove any and all telephone and data equipment that is located in the Subleased Premises as of the Effective Date. The data and phone cabling located in the Subleased Premises is provided in its “as-is” condition upon delivery of the Subleased Premises.

22.No Breach of Prime Lease. Sublandlord shall not do or permit to be done any act which may constitute a breach or violation of any term, covenant or condition of the Prime Lease and which is not cured within any cure period granted under the Prime Lease.
23.Consent of Landlord. The obligations of Sublandlord and Subtenant under this Sublease are conditioned and contingent upon Landlord consenting hereto by executing and delivering a counterpart of this Sublease or a separate instrument signifying its consent. If Landlord’s consent is not obtained within thirty (30) days after the date hereof, this Sublease shall be null and void, all amounts prepaid by Subtenant to Sublandlord under this Sublease (including, without limitation, any security seposit and prepaid Base Rent) shall be promptly returned to Subtenant, and thereafter neither Sublandlord nor Subtenant shall have any further obligations or liability hereunder or to each other with respect to the Subleased Premises.
