If either party shall fail to select a Disinterested Expert within the required time period, then the Disinterested Expert selected by the other party shall determine the Prevailing Base Rent. Each Disinterested Expert shall thereupon independently make its determination of the Prevailing Base Rent within thirty calendar (30) days after the Appointment Deadline (each, an Initial Expert Determination). If either Disinterested Expert shall fail to make an Initial Expert Determination of the Prevailing Base Rent within thirty (30) days after the Appointment Deadline, then the Initial Expert Determination of the other Disinterested Expert (to the extent that such Disinterested Expert makes such Initial Expert Determination within such thirty (30) day period) shall be deemed the Prevailing Base Rent.

If, however, the higher of such two (2) values is more than [***] percent ([***]%) of the lower of such values, then the two (2) Disinterested Experts shall jointly appoint a third (3rd) Disinterested Expert (the 3rd Expert) within ten (10) days after the second (2nd) of the two (2) Initial Expert Determinations has been rendered and delivered to the other party. The 3rd Expert shall independently choose which of the Initial Expert Determinations is the more accurate with regard to Prevailing Base Rent, and the Initial Expert Determination chosen by the 3rd Expert shall be deemed to be the Prevailing Base Rent for the Datacenter Expansion Area.

For the purposes hereof, Disinterested Expert shall mean a broker who has been regularly engaged in the business of datacenter leasing in the Market Area for at least the five (5) years immediately preceding such persons appointment hereunder. Each party shall pay for the cost of its Disinterested Expert and one-half of the cost of any 3rd Expert. If the Base Rent for the Datacenter Expansion Area shall not have been determined prior to the Commencement Date with respect to such Datacenter Expansion Area, then Tenant shall commence to pay Base Rent with respect to such Datacenter Expansion Area based upon Landlords initial determination of the Prevailing Base Rent, and after such Base Rent is determined by arbitration, then either (i)Tenant shall, within thirty (30) calendar days after billing, pay to Landlord any underpayment of Base Rent, or (ii) Landlord shall credit to Tenants account any overpayment of Base Rent.

If (aa) the Commencement Date Conditions are completed prior to Tenants exercise of the foregoing termination right, (bb) the Commencement Date Conditions are completed within ten (10) days after Tenants exercise of the foregoing termination right, or (cc) Tenant shall fail to exercise such termination right within ten (10) days after the Outside Completion Date, then such termination right shall, in any such event, be deemed to have expired and shall, thereafter, be of no further force or effect.
2.3 Extension Options.
2.3.1 Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 2.3, Tenant shall have the following options (Extension Options) to extend the Term of the Lease.
First Extension Term: | Three (3) years (months 63-99) | |
Second Extension Term: | Three (3) years (months 100-136) |
Tenants right to extend the Term of the Lease with respect to any Extension Term shall be conditioned upon Tenant having timely and properly exercised its right to extend the Term of the Lease for all prior Extension Terms.
2.3.2 Each Extension Term shall be upon all of the same terms, conditions and provisions applicable to the then-current Term of this Lease (except as provided otherwise herein). Tenant shall have no further options to extend the Term, except as expressly set forth in this Section 2.3.

First Extension Term: | See Item 8 of the Basic Lease Information | |

2.3.5 In the event that Tenant shall duly exercise an Extension Option, the Term shall be extended to include the applicable Extension Term (and all references to the Term in this Lease shall be deemed to refer to the Term specified in Item 5 of the Basic Lease Information, plus all Extension Terms properly exercised by Tenant). In the event that Tenant shall fail to deliver an Extension Option Exercise Notice, or an Initial Extension Option Notice, as the case may be, within the applicable time period specified herein for the delivery thereof, time being of the essence, at the election of Landlord, Tenant shall be deemed to have forever waived and relinquished such Extension Option, and any other options or rights to renew or extend the Term effective after the then applicable expiration date of the Term shall terminate and shall be of no further force or effect.
2.3.6 Tenant shall have the right to exercise any Extension Option only with respect to the entire Tenant Space leased by Tenant at the time that Tenant delivers the applicable Extension Option Exercise Notice. If Tenant duly exercises an Extension Option, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment reflecting such exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any attempted exercise by Tenant of an Extension Option shall, at the election of Landlord, be invalid, ineffective, and of no force or effect if, on the date on which Tenant delivers an Extension Option Exercise Notice, Initial Extension Option Notice, or on the date on which the Extension Term is scheduled to commence, either: (i) there shall be an uncured Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease, or (ii) the Lease is no longer in full force or effect.
3. | BASE RENT AND OTHER CHARGES. |
3.1 Base Rent. Tenant shall pay Base Rent to Landlord throughout the Term of this Lease. All Base Rent shall be paid to Landlord in monthly installments in advance on the first day of each and every calendar month throughout the Term of this Lease; provided, however, that:
(a) if the Term of this Lease does not commence on the first day of a calendar month, the Base Rent for the Partial Month shall (i) be calculated on a per diem basis determined by dividing the Base Rent above by the total number of calendar days in such Partial Month and multiplying such amount by the number of days remaining in such Partial Month from and after (and including) the Commencement Date, and (ii) be paid by Tenant to Landlord on the Commencement Date; and
(b) if the Term of this Lease is terminated on a date other than the last day of a calendar month, any prepaid Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be refunded to Tenant on a per diem and prorated basis for each day during the calendar month after the effective date of termination for which Tenant has paid Base Rent and Additional Rent, to the extent that such overpayment exceeds any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord.

3.3 Payments Generally. Base Rent and all forms of Additional Rent payable hereunder by Tenant (i) shall be payable to Landlord when due, without any prior notice or demand therefor, in lawful money of the United States without any abatement, offset or deduction whatsoever (except as specifically provided otherwise herein), and (ii) shall be payable to Landlord at the address of Landlord specified in Item 12 of the Basic Lease Information (or to such other person or to such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing to Tenant). No receipt of money by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease shall reinstate, continue or extend the Term of this Lease. No partial payment by Tenant shall be deemed to be other than on account of the full amount otherwise due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord shall be entitled to accept such payment without compromise or prejudice to any of the rights of Landlord hereunder or under any Applicable Laws. In the event that the Commencement Date or the expiration of the Term (or the date of any earlier termination of this Lease) falls on a date other than the first or last day of a calendar month, respectively, the Rent payable for such partial calendar month shall be prorated based on a per diem basis.
3.4 Late Payments. Landlord and Tenant agree that if Landlord has not received any payment of Rent on or before the Delinquency Date, Tenant shall, in addition to Tenants obligation to pay the Late Payment to Landlord, also be required to pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, (i) a Late Charge, and (ii) Late Payment Interest from the Delinquency Date until the date the foregoing are paid, collectively, to cover Landlords additional administrative costs and damages related to such Late Payment, which are difficult, if not impossible, to determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby agrees to waive the Late Charge with respect to the first late payment in any twelve-(12)-month period. In no event, however, shall the charges permitted under this Section 3.4, or elsewhere in this Lease, to the extent the same are considered to be interest under Applicable Law, exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest. Landlords acceptance of any Late Charge, or any Late Payment Interest, shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of Tenants default with respect to the Late Payment, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord hereunder or under any Applicable Laws.
3.5 Utilities.
3.5.1 Tenants Utility Payment. Tenant shall pay the cost of all utilities (e.g., electricity, chilled water) serving, provided to and/or used in or for the Tenant Space (collectively, Tenants Utility Payment). Landlord and Tenant agree that, each month, Tenants Utility Payment shall be a sum equal to (a) Tenants actual metered utility costs for the month in question, based on the Metering Equipment Utility, plus (b) [***] percent ([***]%) of Tenants actual metered utility costs for such month to account for those portions of such utility costs that are not metered directly to the Premises (i.e., a total of [***] ([***]%) of Tenants actual metered utility costs). Tenant shall pay Tenants Utility Payment to Landlord, as Additional Rent, within thirty (30) days after Tenants receipt of each Tenants Utility Payment invoice.

- 15 -
3.5.2 Periods of Premises Underutilization. Tenant acknowledges that Shared Infrastructure Costs will be incurred for the operation of the Building and the Datacenter regardless of whether there is any power being drawn in the Premises. As such, Section 3.5.1 above notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that, during Periods of Premises Underutilization, Tenants Utility Payment shall be determined by virtue of a reasonable proration of the Shared Infrastructure Costs (based on power capacity).
3.5.3 Generator Fuel Usage. Additionally, Tenant shall pay Tenants proportionate share (based on power usage) of the cost of all Generator Fuel Usage, except for the extent to which such Generator Fuel Usage represents Maintenance Fuel Usage. Landlord shall bill Tenant not more frequently than monthly for the amount of the Generator Fuel Payment. Tenant shall pay the Generator Fuel Payment to Landlord, as Additional Rent, within thirty (30) days of delivery of each Generator Fuel Payment invoice. For the avoidance of doubt, it is the intent of the parties that this Section 3.5.3 represents a mechanism only for Landlords cost recovery with regard to non-maintenance related Generator Fuel Usage, and that there is no intent for Tenants Generator Fuel Payment to include any element of profit to Landlord in connection therewith.
3.5.4 Billing Disputes and Reports. Landlord and Tenant shall exercise good faith efforts to resolve all billing disputes to their mutual satisfaction within thirty (30) calendar days.
4. | TAXES. |
4.1 Taxes Equipment. Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay at least ten (10) days before delinquency all Taxes Equipment. If any such Taxes Equipment are levied or assessed against Landlord or the Property, and if Landlord elects to pay the same, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent, within thirty (30) days of Landlords demand therefor, that part of such Taxes Equipment for which Tenant is liable hereunder.
4.2 Taxes Other. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent and within thirty (30) days of Landlords demand therefor, and in such manner and at such times as Landlord shall direct from time to time by written notice to Tenant all Taxes Other.
4.3 Taxes Real Property.
4.3.1 If the Taxes Real Property (Actual) during any calendar year are greater than the Taxes Real Property (Actual) applicable to the Tax Base Year, Tenant shall be obligated to pay to Landlord as Additional Rent an amount equal to Tenants Proportionate Share of Taxes Real Property (Actual).
- 16 -
4.3.2 Beginning with the Effective Date (or as soon thereafter as reasonably possible), Landlord shall provide to Tenant a statement of the Taxes Real Property (Projected) for the Property for the year in which the Effective Date occurs. Tenant shall pay each Projected Real Property Tax Installment to Landlord on the first day of each month during the Term of the Lease. Until Tenant has received the statement of the Taxes Real Property (Projected) from Landlord, Tenant shall continue to pay Projected Real Property Tax Installments to Landlord in the same amount (if any) as required for the last month of the prior calendar year. Upon Tenants receipt of such statement of the Taxes Real Property (Projected), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, or Landlord shall pay to Tenant (whichever is appropriate), the difference between the amount paid by Tenant as Projected Real Property Tax Installments prior to receiving such statement and the amount payable by Tenant therefor as set forth in such statement. Landlord shall provide Tenant a statement on or before June 15 (or as soon thereafter as reasonably possible) after the end of each calendar year, showing Tenants Proportionate Share of Taxes Real Property (Actual) applicable to such calendar year, as compared to the total of the Projected Real Property Tax Installments for such calendar year. If Tenants Proportionate Share of Taxes Real Property (Actual) for such calendar year exceeds the aggregate of the Projected Real Property Tax Installments collected by Landlord from Tenant with regard to such calendar year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within thirty (30) calendar days following Tenants receipt of such statement, the amount of such excess. However, if Tenants Proportionate Share of Taxes Real Property (Actual) for such calendar year is less than the aggregate of the Projected Real Property Tax Installments collected by Landlord from Tenant with regard to such calendar year, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, within thirty (30) calendar days following Tenants receipt of such statement, the amount of such excess. Landlord shall have the right from time to time during each calendar year to revise the Taxes Real Property (Projected), based upon Landlords reasonable estimate of increases or decreases in Taxes Real Property (Projected) and provide Tenant with a revised statement thereof. Thereafter, Tenant shall pay Projected Real Property Tax Installments on the basis of the revised statement. If the Commencement Date is not the first day of a calendar year, or the expiration or termination date of this Lease is not the last day of a calendar year, then Tenants Proportionate Share of Taxes Real Property (Actual) shall be prorated. The foregoing adjustment provisions shall survive the expiration or termination of the Term of this Lease. If Landlord receives an abatement of Taxes Real Property for any fiscal/tax year in respect of which Tenant pays Tenants Proportionate Share of Taxes Real Property, then Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days after Landlord actually receives the proceeds of such abatement, credit or pay to Tenant with Tenants Proportionate Share of the net (i.e. net of the reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in obtaining such abatement) amount of such abatement proceeds, provided however, that in no event shall Tenant receive, with respect to any fiscal tax year, more than the actual amount of Tenants Proportionate Share of Taxes Real Property paid by Tenant for Landlord for such fiscal tax year.

Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing promptly after making any changes to the Datacenter Rules and Regulations and shall provide Tenant with a copy of, or make available to Tenant electronically, the revised and current version of the Datacenter Rules and Regulations. In the event of a conflict between the Datacenter Rules and Regulations and the terms of this Lease, the terms of this Lease shall govern.

The power drawn by all of Tenants Personal Property shall be included in the calculation of Tenants actual electricity consumption for the Premises, except that if Tenant leases the Datacenter Expansion Area pursuant to Section 2.6, then the Electricity Consumption Threshold shall be increased by the additional electrical capacity provided to Tenant in connection with its demise of the Datacenter Expansion Area.

9.1.2.1 Total Taking. If all or substantially all of the Tenant Space, the Building or the Property shall be the subject of a Taking, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of the vesting of title in the condemning authority.
9.1.2.2 Partial Taking. If only a part of the Tenant Space, the Building or the Property shall be the subject of a Taking, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, subject to the terms of Sections 9.1.2.3-9.1.2.7, below.
9.1.2.3 Landlords Termination Right Partial Taking. If the part of the Building or the Property that is taken or condemned as part of the Taking contains a part of the Tenant Space, the Building or the Property that, in Landlords reasonable discretion, is material to the operation of the Tenant Space, Landlord may terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days following the date upon which Landlord received notice of such Taking. If Landlord so notifies Tenant, this Lease shall terminate upon the date set forth in the notice, which date shall not be more than thirty (30) days following the giving of such notice.
9.1.2.4 Tenants Termination Right Partial Taking. If, by reason of a Taking of part of the Building or the Property Tenant no longer has reasonable means of access to the Tenant Space, or the Tenant Space is unfit for use by Tenant in the ordinary course of Tenants business, Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord given within sixty (60) days following the date upon which Tenant received notice of such Taking.

9.1.2.6 Rent Abatement Taking. In the event that this Lease is terminated pursuant to Sections 9.1.2.1, 9.1.2.3 or 9.1.2.4, above, Landlord shall refund to Tenant any prepaid Base Rent and Tenants Proportionate Share of Taxes Property, less any sum then owing to Landlord by Tenant.

If any such award that is made, or compensation that is paid, to either party specifically includes an award or amount for the other, the party first receiving the same shall promptly make an accounting of same to the other.
9.1.3 Tenants Remedy. Tenants termination rights and rights to abatement of Base Rent and Tenants Proportionate Share of Taxes Property, to the extent provided above in this Article 9, shall be Tenants sole and exclusive remedies in the event of a Casualty Event or Taking. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, however, if any Casualty Event is caused by any act of willful misconduct of Tenant or any Tenant Party, then Tenant shall not be entitled to terminate this Lease under Section 9.1.1.2, and there shall be no abatement of any Base Rent (or any other Rent or other amounts) due hereunder.
9.2 Tenants Insurance. Tenant shall, at Tenants expense, procure and maintain throughout the Term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance in accordance with the terms and requirements set forth in Exhibit B-1 to this Lease.

- 25 -
9.2.1 The commercial general liability policies procured by Tenant hereunder shall name Landlord and Landlords managing agent, and any Holders designated by Landlord as additional insureds. Prior to occupying the Tenant Space, and prior to the expiration of each such policy, Tenant shall submit to Landlord certificates of insurance evidencing such policies (and the applicable renewals thereof) being in effect. All insurance policies procured hereunder shall contain a provision stating that the insurer shall endeavor to provide at least thirty (30) days written notice to Landlord and all others named as additional insureds prior to any cancellation or material modification of such policy. If Tenant does not deliver to Landlord a certificate or other proof of renewal or coverage from an insurance carrier at least ten (10) business days prior to the expiration dates of each expiring policy, Landlord may, if Tenant has not cured such default within five (5) business days after receipt of written notice from Landlord, obtain such insurance on behalf of Tenant, and Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after Landlords demand therefor, pay to Landlord an amount equal to the cost of such insurance policies plus an administrative surcharge of ten percent (10%).

Landlord shall, at Landlords expense, procure and maintain throughout the Term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance in accordance with the terms and requirements set forth in Exhibit B-2 to this Lease.

10. | TRANSFERS. |
10.1 Restrictions on Transfers; Landlords Consent. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 10.1.1 and Section 10.5, below, to the contrary, Tenant shall not effect a Transfer, without Landlords express prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease, no Transfer (whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law) shall be valid or effective without Landlords prior written consent and, at Landlords election, any such Transfer or attempted Transfer shall constitute an Event of Default by Tenant under Section 15.1.2 of this Lease.
10.1.1 Permitted Transfer. Tenant may, without the consent of Landlord (and without being subject to Landlords recapture rights under Section 10.3, below) undertake Permitted Transfers.
- 26 -
10.2 Notice to Landlord. If Tenant desires to make any Transfer (other than a Permitted Transfer, for which Tenant must merely notify Landlord prior to the occurrence of same), then at least twenty (20) business days (but no more than one hundred eighty (180) days) prior to the proposed effective date of the Transfer, Tenant shall submit a Transfer Notice to Landlord. If, thereafter, Tenant modifies any of the terms and conditions relevant to a proposed Transfer specified in the Transfer Notice, Tenant agrees to re-submit such Transfer Notice to Landlord for its consent pursuant to all of the terms and conditions of this Article 10.
10.3 Landlords Recapture Rights. Except with regard to a Permitted Transfer, at any time within twenty (20) business days after Landlords receipt of all (but not less than all) of the information and documents described in Section 10.2, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable by written notice to Tenant, to elect to cancel and terminate this Lease; provided however, that if the proposed Transfer is a sublease or other Transfer of only a portion of the Tenant Space and/or for a portion of the remaining Term, Landlord shall only have the right to terminate (or suspend, as the case may be) the Lease with respect to the portion of the Tenant Space for the portion of the remaining Term which Tenant proposes to sublease or Transfer. If Landlord exercises its right to terminate or suspend the Term of the Lease with respect to only a portion of the Tenant Space, then the Base Rent and Tenants Proportionate Share shall be reduced based pro-rata for the time period of such termination or suspension based upon the reduction in the electrical capacity available to Tenant in the remaining portion of the Tenant Space.
10.4 No Release; Subsequent Transfers. No Transfer (whether or not a Permitted Transfer) will release the undersigned Tenant from Tenants obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of the undersigned Tenant to pay the Rent and to be responsible for the performance of all Tenants obligations hereunder. In no event shall the acceptance of any payment by Landlord from any other person be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof. Consent by Landlord to one Transfer will not be deemed consent to any subsequent Transfer. In the event of breach by any Transferee in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may proceed directly against the undersigned Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such Transferee.
10.5 Colocation. Landlord acknowledges that the business to be conducted by the undersigned Tenant in the Premises may require Tenant to enter into Colocation Agreements that will permit Colocation Parties to engage in Colocation Activities. Landlord expressly agrees that Tenant may, without Landlords consent, enter into such Colocation Agreements; provided, however, that (a) the Colocation Agreements, and each Colocation Partys use of the Tenant Space, must comply with the terms of this Lease (including the Datacenter Rules and Regulations) and all Applicable Laws; (b) the Colocation Agreements, and the Colocation Parties rights thereunder, shall be subject and subordinate at all times to this Lease and all of its provisions, covenants and conditions; and (c) in no event may the rights of any Colocation Party, vis a vis the members of the Landlord Group, be greater than the rights of Tenant hereunder. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Colocation Agreements shall not constitute, or be deemed to be, the grant of a leasehold interest, or otherwise constitute, or be deemed to be, a real property interest.
- 27 -
10.6 Excess Rent. Landlord and Tenant agree that, if Tenant assigns this Lease, or subleases any part of the Tenant Space, for any Excess Rent, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, fifty percent (50%) of any such Excess Rent immediately upon Tenants receipt thereof.

At any time and from time to time, within ten (10) business days after written request by Landlord, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying all matters reasonably requested by Landlord and/or any prospective purchaser of the Building and/or the Property and/or any Holder.

11.2 Estoppel Certificate by Landlord. At any time and from time to time, within ten (10) days after written request by Tenant, Landlord shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Tenant a statement in writing certifying all matters reasonably requested by Tenant or any current or prospective transferee of Tenants, purchaser of Tenant or any current or prospective lender to Tenant or such transferee, including the nature of known defaults by Tenant under the Lease, if any. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that any statement delivered (or to be delivered) pursuant to this Article 11 may be relied upon by any current or prospective transferee and/or purchaser of Tenant, and/or any lender to Tenant or such transferee.

12. | SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT; HOLDER RIGHTS. |
12.1 Subordination and Attornment. Without the necessity of any additional document being executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, and at the election of Landlord or any Holder, this Lease will be subject and subordinate at all times to all Security Documents, which may now exist or hereafter be executed which constitute a lien upon or affect the Property or any portion thereof, or Landlords interest and estate in any of said items. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord reserves the right to subordinate (or cause the subordination of) any such Security Documents to this Lease. In the event of any termination or transfer of Landlords estate or interest in the Property, the Building, the Datacenter or the Tenant Space by reason of any termination or foreclosure of any such Security Documents (and notwithstanding any subordination of such Security Document to this Lease that may or may not have occurred), at the election of Landlords successor in interest, Tenant agrees to attorn to and become the tenant of such successor, in which event Tenants right to possession of the Property will not be disturbed as long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease. Tenant hereby waives any right under any Applicable Law or otherwise to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of Tenant hereunder in the event of any termination or transfer of Landlords estate or interest in the Property, the Building, the Datacenter, or the Tenant Space by reason of any termination or foreclosure of any such Security Documents. Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, within ten (10) business days after receipt thereof, and in the form reasonably required by Landlord or any Holder, any additional documents evidencing the priority or subordination of this Lease and Tenants agreement to attorn with respect to any such Security Document; provided, however, any such agreement subordinating this Lease to such lease, mortgage or deed of trust shall contain a non-disturbance provision that is reasonably acceptable to such Holder, Landlord and Tenant in accordance with Section 12.3, below.
12.2 Holder Protection. Tenant agrees to give each Noticed Holder, by registered or certified mail, a copy of any notice of default served upon the Landlord by Tenant. Tenant further agrees that if Landlord shall have failed to cure such default within thirty (30) days after such notice to Landlord (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then within such additional time as may be necessary if Landlord has commenced such cure within such thirty (30) days and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default), then, prior to Tenant pursuing any remedy for such default provided hereunder, at law or in equity, any Noticed Holder shall have an additional thirty (30) days within which to cure or correct such default (or if such default cannot reasonably be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if the Noticed Holder has commenced within such thirty (30) days and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default).
12.3 SNDA. At any time that the Building is hereafter made subject to any Security Document(s), Landlord shall use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to cause the Holder to deliver an SNDA to Tenant. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the subordination of this Lease to any Security Document hereafter placed upon the Building, and Tenants agreement to attorn to the Holder as provided in this Article 12, shall be conditioned upon the Holder entering into an SNDA. Landlord represents to Tenant that, as of the Execution Date of this Lease, there is no mortgage affecting the Building.
- 29 -
13. | SURRENDER OF TENANT SPACE; HOLDING OVER. |
13.1 Tenants Method of Surrender. Upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease or the termination of Tenants right to possess the Tenant Space, Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 13 and Section 8.4, quit and surrender possession of the Tenant Space to Landlord in good working order and clean condition, ordinary wear and tear, and damage caused by a Casualty Event, Taking or a default of Landlord excepted.
13.2 Disposal of Tenants Personal Property. If any property not belonging to Landlord remains in the Tenant Space after the expiration of, or within fifteen (15) calendar days after any earlier termination of, the Term of this Lease or the termination of Tenants right to possess the Tenant Space, Tenant shall be deemed to have abandoned such property and to have authorized Landlord to make such disposition of such property as Landlord may desire without liability for compensation or damages to Tenant or any other Tenant Party.
13.3 Holding Over. If Tenant should remain in possession of all or any portion of the Tenant Space after the expiration of the Term of this Lease (or any earlier termination of this Lease or the termination of Tenants right to possess the Tenant Space), without the execution by Landlord and Tenant of a new lease or an extension of the Term of this Lease, then Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying the entire Tenant Space as a tenant-at-sufferance, upon all of the terms contained herein, except as to term and Base Rent and any other provision reasonably determined by Landlord to be inapplicable. During any such holdover period, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a monthly Base Rent in an amount equal to the Hold Over Percentage, as hereinafter defined, of the Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord during the last month of the Term of this Lease and one hundred percent (100%) of the Additional Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord during the last month of the Term of this Lease. The Hold Over Percentage shall be defined as 150% for the first sixty (60) days of hold over in the Tenant Space by Tenant, or anyone claiming by, through or under Tenant after the expiration of the Term of this Lease (or any earlier termination of this Lease or the termination of Tenants right to possess the Tenant Space) and 200% for any period of hold over by Tenant after the first sixty (60) days. The monthly rent payable for such holdover period shall in no event be construed as a penalty or as liquidated damages for such retention of possession, nor shall such monthly rent be considered to be any form of Consequential Damages related to such retention of possession. Neither any provision hereof nor any acceptance by Landlord of any rent after any such expiration or earlier termination shall be deemed a consent to any holdover hereunder or result in a renewal of this Lease or an extension of the Term, or any waiver of any of Landlords rights or remedies with respect to such holdover. As such, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, Landlord expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Tenant Space upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease or upon the earlier termination hereof or at any time during any holdover and the right to assert any remedy at law or in equity to evict Tenant and collect damages in connection with any such holdover.
13.4 Survival. The provisions of this Article 13 shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Lease.

Tenant agrees that no settlement offer that involves the admission of liability by Landlord or obligation to make payment or pay damages shall be offered or accepted by Tenant in connection with any such indemnification and/or defense without Landlords prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. This indemnity provision and Tenants obligations under this Section 14.2 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease as to any matters arising prior to such expiration or termination or prior to Tenant vacating the Tenant Space and the Building. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Section 14.2, nothing contained in this Section 14.2 shall be interpreted or used in any way to affect, limit, reduce or abrogate any insurance coverage provided by any insurer to either Tenant or Landlord.
14.2.2 Subject to the limitations on Landlords liability expressly set forth in this Lease, Landlord hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Tenant and the Tenant Parties from and against (and to reimburse Tenant and any Tenant Parties for) all third party Claims to the extent arising from, in connection with, or in any manner relating to (or alleged to arise from, to be in connection with, or to be in any manner related to) injuries to persons or damage to property to the extent caused by the active gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any member of the Landlord Group at the Property, provided however, that the foregoing indemnification obligations contained in this Section 14.2.2 shall not include the obligation of Landlord to indemnify any Tenant Party to the extent that such claims are caused directly or indirectly, by the active or passive, joint, concurrent, or comparative negligence of any Tenant Party.

(ii) the amount (discounted to present value) by which, at the time of the termination of this Lease (or at any time thereafter if Landlord shall have initially elected damages under clause (i) above), (x) the aggregate of the rent and other charges projected over the period commencing with such termination and ending on the last day as of which the Term of the Lease would have expired, but for such Event of Default, exceeds (ii) the aggregate projected market rental value (including other charges) for the Tenant Space for such period.
Actions to collect amounts due by Tenant provided for in clause (i) of this Section 1.3 may be brought from time to time by Landlord during the aforesaid period, on one or more occasions, without the necessity of Landlords waiting until the expiration of such period, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to any excess of rental (or rental plus other sums) obtained by reletting over and above the rental provided for in this Lease.

Past due rental and other past due payments shall bear interest from maturity at the Default Rate (as defined in Section 3.5 of this Lease) until paid.
1.6 Cumulative Remedies; Equitable Relief.

Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to relet the Tenant Space after Tenant vacates the Tenant Space in the event that the Lease is terminated based upon a default by Tenant hereunder. Marketing of the Tenant Space in a manner similar to the manner in which Landlord markets other premises within Landlords control in the Building shall be deemed to have satisfied Landlords obligation to use reasonable efforts. Tenant agrees that, in any event, Landlord has no obligation to: (i) relet the Tenant Space prior to leasing any other space within the Building; or (ii) relet the Tenant Space (A) at a rental rate or otherwise on terms below market, as then determined by Landlord in its sole discretion; (B) to any entity not satisfying Landlords then standard financial credit risk criteria; (C) for a use (1) not consistent with Tenants use prior to default; (2) which would violate then applicable law or any restrictive covenant or other lease affecting the Building; (3) which would impose a greater burden upon the Buildings facilities; or (4) which would involve any use of Hazardous Materials (other than those which Tenant is expressly permitted to use under the Lease); or (iii) solicit or entertain negotiations with any other prospective tenants for the Tenant Space until Landlord obtains full and complete possession of the Tenant Space, including the final and unappealable legal right to re-let the Tenant Space free of any claim of Tenant to occupy the Tenant Space.
1.8 Landlords Right to Cure. All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenants sole cost and expense. If Tenant should fail to make any payment (other than Base Rent) or cure any default hereunder within the time herein permitted, Landlord, without being under any obligation to do so, without thereby waiving such default and in addition to and without prejudice to any other right or remedy of Landlord, may make such payment and/or remedy such other default for the account of Tenant (and enter the Tenant Space for such purpose), and thereupon Tenant shall be obligated to, and hereby agrees to, pay to Landlord as Additional Rent, within ten (10) days following Landlords demand therefor, all costs, expenses and disbursements incurred by Landlord in good faith (including reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Landlord in taking such remedial action, plus an administrative fee of ten percent (10%) of such amount.
2. CALCULATION OF CHARGES.
