2.2. Land. “Land” means the real property (including air rights) more particularly described on Exhibits A-1, A-2, and A-3, including easements and other rights that benefit or encumber such real property.

2.3. Base Building. “Base Building” means the Building Structure and the Mechanical Systems, collectively, defined as follows:

(a) Building Structure. “Building Structure” means the structural components in the Building, including foundations, floor and ceiling slabs, roofs, exterior walls, exterior glass and mullions, columns, beams, shafts, and emergency stairwells. The Building Structure excludes the Leasehold Improvements (and the leasehold improvements to other tenant premises in the Building, whether or not occupied or leased) and the Mechanical Systems.

(b) Mechanical Systems. “Mechanical Systems” means the base building systems generally serving the Building, including the sprinkler, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, metering, lighting, communications, security, drainage, sewage, waste disposal, vertical transportation (other than the Exclusive Freight Elevator), and fire/life safety systems, in each case up to the point of distribution of such system in the Premises and other leasable areas of the Building. “Mechanical Systems” shall also include (i) the black iron ductwork serving the kitchen spaces which exist on the Execution Date in the Premises, and (ii) the VAV boxes that are part of the HVAC system (including those VAV boxes located in the Premises).

- 4 -


such a manner that a freight elevator and a janitor closet on the lower lobby level can only be accessed through the Secured Access Space. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Landlord and its employees, agents and contractors shall have the right to enter the Secured Access Space at all reasonable times for the purpose of using such freight elevator and janitor closet (excluding periods during which special events are occurring (provided, that (i) Tenant shall deliver notice to Landlord at least 5 business days prior to such special event and (ii) such access to said freight elevator and janitor closet through the Secured Access space would unreasonably interfere with the special event in question), absent an emergency). However, Tenant may require an employee of Tenant or its security service to accompany Landlord’s personnel (or its agents or contractors) while in the Premises, provided, that Tenant has made such employee available to Landlord when Landlord’s personnel (or Landlord’s agents or contractors) desire to use such freight elevator or janitor closet. From and after the Relocation Date, such freight elevator and janitor closet shall be accessible through the Common Areas, and this Section 2.4(b) shall be of no further force or effect.

(c) To the extent reasonably required by Tenant, Tenant shall have access to areas within the Building but outside of the Premises in which Landlord has permitted Tenant to install equipment, wiring, piping, conduit, cabling, or ductwork at reasonable times upon reasonable notice to Landlord, and Landlord shall have the right to require, as a condition to such access, that Tenant (or Tenant’s employee, contractor, or other representative) at all times be accompanied by a representative of Landlord (and/or, at Landlord’s discretion, a representative of a third party riser management company retained by Landlord) who Landlord shall make available upon reasonable notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 6.4(b), Tenant shall have such access without accompaniment to the telecommunications closets (and the riser to which they provide access) in the 10 South Wacker Building which are, as of the Execution Date, exclusively for Tenant’s use for Tenant’s telecommunications cabling, conduit, and wiring, and related equipment (“Tenant Exclusive Telecom Closets”).

2.5. Premises. On or before January 31, 2008, time being of the essence, Tenant shall elect the Premises which shall be the subject of this Lease from and after December 1, 2008. Tenant shall make such election, electing only Scheme F-1 (as set forth on Exhibit B-1) or Scheme F-2 (as set forth on Exhibit B-2) by giving to Landlord written notice. If Tenant does not timely make such election, then Tenant shall be deemed to have elected Scheme F-1.

(a) Leasehold Improvements. The Premises includes the Leasehold Improvements. “Leasehold Improvements” means all improvements in or serving the Premises that are not Building Structure or Mechanical Systems. The Leasehold Improvements may exist in the Premises as of the Execution Date, or be installed by Landlord or Tenant under this Lease at the cost of either party, including, but not limited to Landlord’s Work. The Leasehold Improvements include: (1) interior walls and partitions (including those surrounding structural columns entirely or partly within the Premises); (2) the interior one-half of demising walls; (3) the interior drywall on exterior structural walls; (4) stairways and stairwells, if any, installed by or on behalf of Tenant within the Premises; (5) the frames, casements, doors, windows and openings installed in or on the improvements described in clauses (1) through (4), or that provide entry/exit to/from the Premises; (6) all hardware, fixtures, cabinetry, railings, paneling, woodwork and finishes in the Premises or that are installed in or on the improvements described in clauses (1) through (5); (7) the Exclusive Freight Elevator; (8) integrated ceiling systems

(including grid, panels and lighting); (9) carpeting and other floor finishes; (10) kitchen, rest room, lavatory or other similar facilities that are within and exclusively serve the Premises (including plumbing fixtures, toilets, sinks and built-in appliances); and (11) the distribution of the Mechanical Systems from the common point of distribution for each system to and throughout the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Leasehold Improvements shall in no event include any portion of the Building Structure or the Mechanical Systems, whether or not located in the Premises.

(b) Exclusions from the Premises. The Premises shall not include: (1) any areas above the finished ceiling or integrated ceiling systems, or below the finished floor coverings that are not part of the Leasehold Improvements; (2) janitor’s closets (which serve a multi-tenant floor); (3) stairways and stairwells to be used for emergency exiting or as Common Areas; (4) rooms for connection of electrical and/or telecommunication equipment on multi-tenant floors; (5) vertical transportation shafts (or anything therein); (6) vertical shafts, risers, chases, flues or ducts; and (7) any easements or rights to natural light, air or view. Without limiting the foregoing, neither the RSF of the Premises nor the USF of the Secured Access Space shall include (for purposes of calculating Base Rent or Additional Rent) the low-rise elevator lobby of the adjacent corridor space in the 30 South Wacker Building, even though such space may be accessible from the Premises only.

(c) Tenant Access to Certain Facilities. Notwithstanding what is set forth in this Lease, Tenant shall have non-exclusive access to the areas between the ceiling of the Premises and the slab of the next higher floor without Landlord’s prior consent to the extent that Leasehold Improvements, including without limitation telecommunications cabling, are located there. Landlord shall not make any installations in such areas that would materially interfere with any Leasehold Improvements located therein. In addition, Tenant acknowledges that its use of dedicated rooms for connection of electrical and/or telecommunications equipment on full floors of the Premises is non-exclusive (except for Tenant Exclusive Telecom Closets in the 10 South Wacker Building), that Tenant’s installations in such rooms shall not exceed a reasonable portion of the total space available in each such room (provided such reasonable portion shall not be less than the current space allotted Tenant as of the Execution Date), and that Landlord shall have the right to install equipment or permit third-party providers to install equipment, including, without limitation, telecommunications cabling, in the remaining portion of such rooms. Landlord and Tenant shall cooperate to ensure that none of the installations made by (or at the direction of) either of Landlord or Tenant in such rooms shall prevent the use of, or reasonable access to, the installations made in such rooms by (or at the direction of) the other party.

(d) Keys. Tenant shall have the right to make (or have made for it) all locks and keys, key or proximity cards or other access devices for any or all points of entry into the Premises or within the Premises. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a complete set of such keys, key or proximity cards, or other access devices. On or prior to June 1, 2008, Landlord shall cause the Building access and security systems to be made compatible with Tenant’s keycard system so Tenant’s employees may use their Tenant-issued key cards for access to both of the Building and the Premises. Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with Landlord to enable Landlord to comply with the obligation set forth in the foregoing sentence.

Therefore, Tenant shall accept possession of the Premises on the Scheduled Commencement Date in its then “as is” condition, subject to the completion of Landlord’s Work in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. Except for Landlord’s Work, Landlord has no obligation to perform any work, supply any materials, incur any expense, or make any alterations or improvements to prepare the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy; provided, that nothing in this sentence shall negate Landlord’s obligations expressly set forth elsewhere in this Lease.

remedies available elsewhere under this Lease or at law, Tenant shall be a tenant-at-sufferance and must comply with all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, except that for each Month of any Holdover, Tenant shall pay 150% for the first 30 days and 200% thereafter of the Rent payable for the last Month of the Term with respect to the entire Premises (or that would have been payable but for abatement or excuse), without proration for any partial Month of Holdover.

3.4. Condition on Expiration.

(a) Return of the Premises. At the end of the Term, Tenant will return possession of the Premises to Landlord vacant, free of Tenant’s Personal Property, in broom - clean condition, and with all Leasehold Improvements in good condition and repair, excepting ordinary wear and tear, damage by fire or other casualty or condemnation that is not Tenant’s obligation to restore under Articles 10 or 12 (and excepting normal, minimal damage from removal of trade fixtures).

(a) Tenant shall pay Base Rent in advance, in equal Monthly installments, commencing (subject to the provisions of Section 4.1(b)) on the Scheduled Commencement Date, and on the first day of each Month thereafter during the Term; provided, that if the first day of a Month is not a business day then Base Rent shall be due on the first business day of such Month. Base Rent for any partial Month shall be prorated.

(b) If Landlord’s Work with respect to any particular floor of the Premises in any of the 10 South Wacker Building, the 20 South Wacker Building, or the 30 South Wacker Building has not been Substantially Completed on or before the date (each, a “Delivery Deadline”) that is 75 days (as such 75-day period may be extended by reason of Tenant Delay and/or Force Majeure delay affecting Landlord’s Work on such floor) after the date set forth in Exhibit E for Substantial Completion of such floor, then, as Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy therefor (except as set forth in Sections 15.9, 15.10, 15.11, and 19), the Base Rent (and the Additional Rent under Section 4.2) attributable to such floor shall be abated by (i) one day for each day after the applicable Delivery Deadline that Landlord’s Work with respect to such floor has not been Substantially Completed, for up to 75 days, and (ii) two days for each day from and after the 76th day after the applicable Delivery Deadline that Landlord’s Work with respect to such floor has not been Substantially Completed. For purposes of this Section 4.1(b), the portion of Landlord’s Work consisting of the replacement of the Building facade on the 20 South Wacker Building shall be deemed to be part of Landlord’s Work applicable to (and only to) the third floor in the 20 South Wacker Building (unless Tenant elects Scheme F-2 pursuant to Section 2.5, or is otherwise leasing the seventh floor of the 20 South Wacker Building, in which case such work shall also be deemed to be part of Landlord’s Work applicable to the seventh floor in the 20 South Wacker Building). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.1(b), Tenant shall not be entitled to an abatement of the Base Rent or the Additional Rent under this Section 4.1(b) in respect of any particular floor of the Premises in any particular Building if Tenant has taken possession of such floor (whether for the performance of Tenant’s Work, for the conduct of business or otherwise). “Tenant Delay” means any delay that Landlord may encounter in the performance of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease by reason of any act or omission of any nature of Tenant, its agents or contractors, including, without limitation, delays due to changes in or additions to Landlord’s Work requested by Tenant, delays by Tenant in submission of information or giving authorizations or approvals, delays due to the postponement of any of Landlord’s Work at the request of Tenant, or delays due to Tenant’s failure to surrender any space to Landlord in a timely manner and in the Delivery Condition required for Landlord to commence Landlord’s Work in such space (whether such delays are within or outside of the space in question). Tenant shall pay to Landlord any actual incremental

 

- 9 -


out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by Landlord by reason of any Tenant Delay. “Substantial Completion” (and with correlative meaning, “Substantially Complete” and “Substantially Completed”) of Landlord’s Work means that Landlord’s Work shall have been substantially completed other than minor construction and finishing details that would not materially interfere with the performance of Tenant’s Work or the conduct of Tenant’s business in the space in question. “Delivery Condition” means Tenant’s removal, at its sole cost and expense, of any and all furniture, moveable personal property, equipment (including, without limitation, computers) and other moveable items from all offices and other areas of the floor in question (other than such items located in or about the third floor (and if applicable, seventh floor) of the 20 South Wacker Building; it being understood that all such items left by Tenant in or about the Premises may be demolished and/or removed by Landlord as part of Landlord’s Work without any liability to Tenant therefor).

4.2. Additional Rent. Tenant’s obligation to pay Taxes and Expenses under this Section 4.2 is referred to in this Lease as “Additional Rent”.

(a) Taxes. For each full or partial calendar year during the Term, Tenant shall pay, in the manner described below, Tenant’s Share of Taxes attributable to each of the 10 South Wacker Building and the combined 20 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building, each based upon Tenant’s Share thereof, without double counting. “Taxes” means the total costs incurred by Landlord for: (1) real property taxes and assessments (including ad valorem and special assessments) levied on the Project and Landlord’s personal property used in connection with the Project; (2) taxes, if any, on Landlord’s personal property used in the Project (but not the Illinois personal property replacement income tax); (3) taxes, assessments or fees in lieu of the taxes described in clauses (1) and (2) of this sentence including, without limitation, (A) a tax, assessment, levy, imposition, or charge based on the income or rents received from the Project whether or not wholly or partially as a capital levy or otherwise, (B) a tax, assessment, levy, imposition, or charge measured by or based in whole or in part upon all or any portion of the Project and imposed upon Landlord, (C) a license fee measured by the rents due at the Project, or (D) any other tax, assessment, levy, imposition, charge, or license fee however described or imposed, including business improvement district impositions; and (4) the reasonable costs incurred to reduce the taxes described in clauses (1) and (2) of this sentence; less (5) Taxes billed to retail tenants of the Project. The amount of Taxes attributable to any calendar year of the Term shall be in the amount of Taxes accrued for such year (for example, real property taxes for tax year 2008 will be accrued in calendar year 2008 and will be paid in calendar year 2009). In the case of special Taxes or assessments which may be paid by Landlord in installments without incurring interest, only the amount of each required installment accrued for a calendar year shall be included in Taxes. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the real estate taxes applicable to the Project at a level consistent with the real estate taxes of other first class office buildings in the downtown Chicago area (including contesting any assessment of the Project for real estate tax purposes if Landlord determines, in Landlord’s sole discretion, that such contest is in the best interest of the Project). If Landlord contests any assessment of the Project for real estate tax purposes, then all costs of such contest shall be included in Taxes. Tenant shall receive a credit against Rent due for Tenant’s Share of any refund of Taxes, net of expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such credit that have not been previously included in Taxes, applicable to the Term. Taxes exclude federal, state and local income taxes and capital stock, franchise, inheritance, transfer, gift or estate taxes and taxes

 

- 10 -


paid under Section 4.3. Taxes shall not include tax penalties incurred as a result of Landlord’s failure to make payments and/or to file any tax or informational returns when due, except that Taxes shall include (i) interest that may accrue during the pendency of any good faith contest of Taxes and (ii) interest and penalties that arise in whole or in part from Tenant’s failure or unwillingness to timely comply with the terms of this Lease (which amounts described in this clause (ii) shall be reimbursable 100% by Tenant). The benefit of any tax exemption or tax abatement relating to all or any portion of the Project that is attributable to a particular tenant (other than Tenant) shall accrue solely to the benefit of Landlord and Taxes shall be computed without taking into account any such exemption or abatement. If a tax exemption or tax abatement accrues to the benefit of Landlord relating to all or any portion of the Project and is attributable to Tenant, then Tenant shall receive a credit for the amount of such exemption or abatement, but Taxes shall be computed without taking into account such credit. Tenant shall be responsible for any applicable occupancy or rent tax now in effect or hereafter enacted and, if such tax is payable by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly pay such amounts to Landlord, upon Landlord’s demand. Tenant shall be obligated to pay Tenant’s Share of Taxes regardless of whether Tenant may be exempt from the payment of any Taxes as the result of any reduction, abatement, or exemption from Taxes granted or agreed to by any governmental or quasi-governmental entity, or by reason of Tenant’s diplomatic or other tax exempt status.

(b) Expenses. For each full or partial calendar year during the Term, Tenant shall pay, in the manner described below, Tenant’s Share of Expenses attributable to each of the 10 South Wacker Building and the combined 20 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building, each based upon Tenant’s Share thereof, without double counting. “Expenses” means the total costs (except as set forth in Section 4.2(b)(2)) incurred by Landlord (determined on an accrual basis) to operate, manage, administer, equip, secure, protect, repair, replace, refurbish, clean, maintain, decorate and inspect the Project, including a market fee to manage the Project of not more than 3% of the gross revenue of the Project, less all Expenses billed to retail tenants in the Project. If either of the 10 South Wacker Building or the combined 20 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building is less than 95% occupied and operating, or if Landlord is not furnishing a particular service otherwise includable in Expenses to any tenant of the Building, Expenses attributable to such building(s) which vary with occupancy, or which are not being provided, will be calculated as if such building(s) is (are) 95% occupied and operating and, subject to Article 22, all such services are provided to all tenants.

(1) Expenses include, without limitation:

(A) Subject to Article 22 and Section 6.3(a), Standard Services provided under Section 6.1;

(B) Repairs and maintenance, including that performed under Section 7.2;

(2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Expenses exclude:

(A) Taxes;

(B) Interest, principal, points, and fees on debts or amortization on any mortgage or mortgages or any other debt instrument encumbering the Building or otherwise incurred by Landlord (except as expressly permitted in Sections 4.2(b)(1)(F) and 4.2(b)(2)(E));

(J) Rentals for items (except when needed in connection with normal repairs and maintenance of Mechanical Systems or with keeping Mechanical Systems in operation while such repairs are being made) that if purchased, rather than rented, would constitute a Capital Item that is specifically excluded in Section 4.2(b)(2)(F) above (excluding, however, equipment not affixed to the Building which is used in providing janitorial or similar services);

(K) Costs incurred by Landlord for the repair of damage to the Building to the extent that Landlord is or would expect to, if Landlord carried valid and collectible insurance as required by Section 9.2(a), be reimbursed by insurance proceeds that are in excess of the deductibles carried by prudent landlords of first class office buildings in downtown Chicago, and costs of all capital repairs, replacement or restorations (except those allowed under Section 4.2(b)(1)(F) above), resulting from a casualty regardless of whether covered by insurance;

(c) Amortization and Accounting Principles.

(1) Each item of Mandated Expenses will be fully amortized in equal annual installments, with interest on the principal balance at the Amortization Rate, over the number of years that Landlord reasonably projects the item of Mandated Expenses will be productive for its intended use, without replacement, but properly repaired and maintained.

(2) Each item of Cost-Saving Expenses will be charged to Expenses over the period Landlord reasonably estimates that it will take for the savings in Expenses achieved by such items to equal their cost together with interest on the unamortized cost thereof at the Amortization Rate. Each year, Landlord may charge to Expenses its reasonable estimate of the savings realized for such year, plus interest on the unamortized balance at the Amortization Rate, until such time as the unamortized balance equals zero. In no event shall the amount included in Expenses in any year for such Cost-Saving Expenses (excluding interest) exceed the reasonably estimated annual savings for such year from the installation of the related Capital Item.

(3) Any item of Expenses of significant cost that is not required to be capitalized but is unexpected or does not typically recur may, in Landlord’s discretion, be

 

- 16 -


amortized in equal annual installments, with interest on the principal balance at the Amortization Rate, over a number of years determined by Landlord.

(4) “Amortization Rate” means the Prime Rate, or, if Landlord shall have actually obtained financing for such alterations, repairs, replacements, and/or improvements, the actual interest rate incurred by Landlord in connection with such financing. “Prime Rate” means the then current rate of interest as announced from time to time by Citibank N.A., or its successor (or a comparable financial institution selected by Landlord) as its prime rate.

(5) In determining Expenses, Landlord shall use accounting principles consistent with those customarily utilized to determine Expenses in other first class office buildings in downtown Chicago, which accounting principles shall be consistently applied from year to year.

(6) Intentionally Omitted.

(7) If, on or before the later of (A) the last day of the calendar year next succeeding the calendar year to which any statement of the actual Additional Rent pursuant to Section 4.2(e) applies and (B) the 270th day after the date Landlord shall have given to Tenant such statement, Landlord discovers an error in the calculation of Expenses for such calendar year that would result in a reduction of Tenant’s Share of Expenses for such calendar year, Landlord shall recalculate Tenant’s Share of Expenses for such calendar year and treat any overpayment by Tenant as an overpayment of Estimated Additional Rent as to which Tenant shall be entitled to a credit.

(d) Estimates. Landlord shall reasonably estimate Additional Rent each calendar year that Additional Rent may be payable. Such estimate may not exceed 105% of the actual Additional Rent for the previous year unless Landlord can reasonably demonstrate the necessity for such additional increase in such estimate. Notwithstanding the foregoing limit on the increase of such estimate, such limit is not a limit or a “cap” on the actual amount of Expenses that Tenant may owe under this Lease for any calendar year. Tenant shall pay the estimated Additional Rent in advance, in equal monthly installments together with Base Rent. Landlord may reasonably revise Landlord’s estimate of Additional Rent (based upon evidence of actual increases in Expenses beyond those originally estimated) not more than once during any calendar year, and Tenant shall pay the monthly installments of such revised estimated Additional Rent, commencing on the first day of the month that is at least 30 days after the date Landlord gives to Tenant notice of such revision. Such revised monthly installments of estimated Additional Rent shall include an adjustment factor to compensate for any underpayment of revised estimated Additional Rent for the calendar year prior to the revision. The aggregate estimates of Additional Rent payable by Tenant in a calendar year is the “Estimated Additional Rent”.

(e) Settlement. As soon as practicable after the end of each calendar year that Additional Rent is payable (or, in the case of Taxes, as soon as practicable after receipt of the bill therefor), Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement of the actual Additional Rent for such calendar year. The statement of actual Additional Rent shall be binding and conclusive upon

 

- 17 -


Landlord and Tenant except for any corrections to the statement made by Landlord on or before the later of (1) the last day of the calendar year next succeeding the calendar year to which such statement relates and (2) the 270th day after the date Landlord shall have given to Tenant such statement, and except for items that are Objections or for which Tenant exercises its Audit Right; provided, that Tenant’s exercise of its Objections and/or Audit Right will not relieve Tenant from its obligation to pay all such actual Additional Rent pending resolution of any Objection or any Audit. If the actual Additional Rent exceeds the Estimated Additional Rent for such calendar year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord in a lump sum as Rent within 30 days after receipt of Landlord’s statement of actual Additional Rent. If the Estimated Additional Rent paid by Tenant exceeds the actual Additional Rent for such calendar year, then Landlord shall credit the amount of the overpayment against Rent next due. Landlord’s and Tenant’s obligations under this Section 4.2(e) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

(f) Objections. Tenant shall have the right, upon giving to Landlord written notice not later than 120 days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s statement pursuant to Section 4.2(e) (or any correction to said statement pursuant to Section 4.2(e)), to reasonably and in good faith object to or to question items of Additional Rent (“Objection”); provided, that such notice identifies the items objected to or questioned with reasonable specificity. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide a sufficiently detailed explanation to adequately address Tenant’s Objection, but Landlord shall not be required to allow Tenant to conduct an Audit or to provide such detailed information as is normally included in connection with an Audit unless Tenant has exercised its Audit Right.

(g) Secured Access, Support and Storage Space. In no event shall any Additional Rent under this Section 4.2 be due with respect to the Secured Access Space or the Fixed Term Support Space, whether during the initial Term or during any extension thereof pursuant to Article 17.

(h) No Reduction of Base Rent. In no event shall any decrease in Expenses or Taxes result in a reduction in the Base Rent payable under this Lease; provided, that the foregoing shall not be construed to diminish any right expressly set forth in this Lease that Tenant may have to an offset or credit against Rent.

(i) Allocation of Expenses and Taxes among the Buildings. Landlord shall separately determine Expenses and Taxes for the 10 South Wacker Building and for the combined 20 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building. If any Taxes or Expenses are imposed or incurred with respect to both the 10 South Wacker Building and the other Buildings (including the cost of a shared management office), Landlord shall allocate the same in accordance with sound accounting and management practices consistently applied.

4.3. Other Taxes. Upon demand, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for taxes Landlord may be required to pay (a) on Tenant’s Personal Property (excluding the existing Illinois personal property replacement tax, which is in the nature of an income tax), or (b) which are enacted after the Execution Date in lieu of real estate taxes and payable with respect to (1) Rent, (2) Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, or (3) this Lease. If Tenant cannot lawfully reimburse Landlord for these taxes, then the Base Rent will be increased to yield to Landlord the same amount after these taxes were imposed as Landlord would have received before these taxes were imposed.

4.4. Terms of Payment. “Rent” means all amounts payable by Tenant under this Lease and the Exhibits attached hereto, including Base Rent and Additional Rent. If a time for payment of an item of Rent is not specified in this Lease, then Tenant shall pay such item of Rent within 45 days after receipt of Landlord’s statement or invoice therefor. Unless otherwise provided in this Lease, Tenant shall pay Rent without notice, demand, deduction, abatement or setoff, in lawful U.S. currency, by wire transfer of funds into any lockbox account or accounts as designated by Landlord. Landlord shall provide the information for such lockbox account(s) pursuant to instructions separate from this Lease. Landlord shall send invoices payable by Tenant to Tenant’s Billing Address; however, neither Landlord’s failure to send an invoice nor Tenant’s failure to receive an invoice for Base Rent (and installments of Estimated Additional Rent) will relieve Tenant of its obligation to timely pay Base Rent (and installments of Estimated Additional Rent). Each partial payment by Tenant shall be deemed a payment on account. No endorsement or statement on any check or any accompanying letter shall constitute an accord and satisfaction, affect Landlord’s right to collect the full amount due, or require Landlord to apply any payment in any particular manner other than to any item of outstanding Rent (or other obligation due from Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease). No payment by Tenant to Landlord will be deemed to extend the Term or render any notice, pending suit or judgment ineffective. Upon 10 business days notice given to the other, each of Landlord and Tenant may change its Billing Address. Any payment made by Tenant to a lockbox maintained by Landlord for the collection of Rent payments shall not be deemed to have been accepted by Landlord if such payment is returned to Tenant within 10 days after Tenant gives to Landlord notice that such payment has been received into such lockbox.

4.5. Financial Statement. If at any time during the Term (as the same may be extended), Tenant’s financial statements are not publicly available to Landlord, then not more than once during each calendar year during the Term (as the same may be extended), Landlord may request from Tenant, and Tenant shall provide to Landlord within 10 business days of such request, Tenant’s financial statement covering the most recent calendar or fiscal year for which such statements are available, certified by a member of Tenant’s senior financial management team to have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (if a GAAP statement is available) except as noted in such certification and without footnotes.

4.6. Audit Right. Landlord shall maintain complete books and records of all Expenses and Taxes (including reasonable back-up documentation) sufficient for the conduct of an Audit. Each calendar year that Additional Rent is payable by Tenant, Tenant may audit Landlord’s calculation of Additional Rent for the previous calendar year only on the following terms and conditions (“Audit Right”):

(a) Procedure for Review.

(1) To exercise the Audit Right for any calendar year, Tenant must notify Landlord in writing of Tenant’s election to audit (“Audit Notice”) within the later of (A) 120 days after the date Tenant received the annual statement of actual Additional Rent

 

- 19 -


relating to such calendar year pursuant to Section 4.2(e) and (B) 30 days after Tenant received Landlord’s explanation of all Objections pursuant to Section 4.2(f).

(2) The audit shall be limited to those accounting records of Landlord that are directly relevant and reasonably required to determine the Expenses and Taxes for the calendar year that is the subject of the applicable annual statement of actual Additional Rent only.

(3) The audit shall be conducted at the Project or at Landlord’s corporate offices located in the Chicago or New York metropolitan area and shall commence at a time mutually convenient to Landlord and Tenant that is within 30 days after Tenant delivers the Audit Notice to Landlord. The Audit Right shall expire on the date which is 60 days after Tenant or Tenant’s Auditor is provided with all reasonably requested information necessary to complete the audit. Tenant or Tenant’s Auditor may copy any of Landlord’s books or records reasonably necessary for the efficient conduct of such audit or the preservation of records, or reasonably useful in the preparation of (and intended to be included with) the audit report.

(4) Tenant may perform the audit with Tenant’s own employees, or may engage (A) a national public accounting firm, (B) a regional public accounting firm that is reasonably acceptable to Landlord (with the understanding that, as of the Execution Date, BDO Seidman and Blackman Kallick are acceptable to Landlord), or (C) another lease auditor that is acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion, to perform the audit (“Tenant’s Auditor”). In addition, Tenant may submit a list of prospective Tenant Auditors to Landlord for Landlord’s approval hereunder. If Tenant commences an audit with its own employees, Tenant shall have the right to thereafter engage an outside Tenant’s Auditor, and such Tenant’s Auditor shall have the right to commence and complete the audit within a reasonable time not to exceed 30 days after such Tenant’s Auditor commenced its work or the outside date set forth in Section 4.6(a)(3), whichever is later. In no event shall Tenant engage Tenant’s Auditor on a contingency fee basis or any other fee basis by which the compensation of Tenant’s Auditor is based upon the amount credited by Landlord to Tenant as a result of such audit.

(5) Before commencing any review of Landlord’s books and records, Tenant and Tenant’s Auditor must each agree in writing to keep confidential and not to disclose to any other person or entity Landlord’s books and records that are the subject of review and any negotiation and settlement of any dispute that may arise from the audit; provided, that Tenant may disclose the information Tenant is required to keep confidential to the extent reasonably required (A) by law or governmental regulation, (B) in a court proceeding or arbitration to resolve any dispute arising out of the audit, or (C) to Tenant’s attorneys, accountants and other professionals related to the performance of the audit or resolution of any dispute arising out of the Audit who agree in writing to be bound by Tenant’s confidentiality agreement.

(6) To make a claim for refund of any overpayment of Additional Rent disclosed by the audit, Tenant must notify Landlord in writing of the claim (“Audit Claim”) within 30 days after completion of Tenant’s Auditor’s review under Section 4.6(a)(3) or (4), as applicable. The Audit Claim shall state in reasonable detail the basis for, and calculation of the claim, and shall include a copy of any written audit or report furnished to Tenant.

 

- 20 -


(7) Tenant’s failure to timely give Landlord the Audit Notice or Audit Claim, or to otherwise adhere to the procedures set forth above shall constitute:

(A) A waiver of Tenant’s right to audit or otherwise dispute Landlord’s calculation of Additional Rent for the applicable calendar year, including any action that Tenant may be entitled to pursue under law; and

(B) A full release of Landlord for any claim by Tenant of overpayment of Additional Rent for the applicable calendar year.

(8) No subtenant may conduct an Audit. No assignee of Tenant’s rights under this Lease (except a Permitted Transferee) may conduct an audit of Additional Rent for any portion of the Term occurring prior to the effective date of the applicable assignment.

(b) No Default. No Audit Notice or Audit Claim will be effective if, when given or made, a Material Non-monetary Default of this Lease (as defined in Section 16.18) has occurred and is then continuing or a monetary Default under Section 15.1 (a) has occurred and is then continuing.

(c) Resolution of Claim. Landlord and Tenant shall, for a period consisting of not less than 90 days after Tenant delivers to Landlord an Audit Claim (or an Objection, which is not of the type which requires an audit to resolve), attempt in good faith to resolve such Audit Claim.

(d) Costs. Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for Tenant’s reasonable out-of- pocket third-party expenses incurred in connection with an audit if the total Expenses or Taxes used by Landlord to compute Additional Rent for the calendar year audited were overstated by more than 5%; provided, that such costs shall not include the cost of services performed by Tenant’s own employees; and provided further, that Landlord shall not be required to pay any fee that is calculated on a contingency basis, nor shall Landlord be obligated to pay any fee to an auditor to the extent said fee is based upon the amount credited by Landlord to Tenant as a result of such audit. If such total Expenses or Taxes were not overstated, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, as Rent, for Landlord’s reasonable out-of-pocket third-party expenses incurred in connection with such audit.

(e) Arbitration. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to resolve the Audit Claim (or the Objection described in Section 4.6(c)) (in whole or in part), then, not more than 30 days after expiration of the 90-day period set forth in Section 4.6(c), either of Landlord or Tenant may give to the other notice of such party’s election to arbitrate those issues raised by the Audit Claim that remain in dispute, as follows:

(1) Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon a single arbitrator who shall be a certified public accountant in a national or regional public accounting firm who shall have been active over the 15-year period immediately prior to the date of such appointment in the accounting and/or auditing of first-class commercial high-rise office properties in the county in which the Building is located, and who does not then represent or act and has not represented or acted in the 3 years immediately prior to the date of such appointment on behalf of either of Landlord or Tenant and is not a tenant, subtenant or occupant of the Building or any

 

- 21 -


other building in the metropolitan area where the Building is located that is owned or managed by Landlord (a “Qualified Audit Arbitrator”). If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree to a single Qualified Audit Arbitrator within 10 business days after either Landlord or Tenant (as applicable) gives to the other the notice to arbitrate pursuant to Section 4.6(e), then Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one Qualified Audit Arbitrator within 15 business days after either Landlord or Tenant (as applicable) gives to the other such notice to arbitrate. If either of Landlord or Tenant fails to timely appoint a Qualified Audit Arbitrator, then the Qualified Audit Arbitrator shall be the sole appointed Qualified Audit Arbitrator. If both Landlord and Tenant fail to timely appoint a Qualified Audit Arbitrator then the Audit Claim (or the Objection, as applicable) shall be void and of no further force or effect;

(2) If each of Landlord and Tenant appoints a Qualified Audit Arbitrator, then such two Qualified Audit Arbitrators shall, within 10 days after the later date of appointment of such two Qualified Audit Arbitrators, appoint a third Qualified Audit Arbitrator. If the two Qualified Audit Arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint a third Qualified Audit Arbitrator, then the identity of the third Qualified Audit Arbitrator shall be submitted to arbitration under the provisions of the commercial rules of the American Arbitration Association, but subject to such arbitrator being a Qualified Audit Arbitrator;

(3) A majority of the three Qualified Audit Arbitrators (or the single Qualified Audit Arbitrator as set forth in Section 4.6(e)(1) above as the case may be) shall, within 30 days after the later of (A) the appointment of the third Qualified Audit Arbitrator and (B) the conclusion of a hearing, if requested by either Landlord or Tenant, giving each of Landlord and Tenant an opportunity to present its evidence and conclusions with respect to the Audit Claim (or the Objection, as applicable), reach a decision as to each item of the Audit Claim (or the Objection, as applicable) in dispute, and shall notify Landlord and Tenant of such decision, and such decision shall be final and binding upon both Landlord and Tenant;

(4) The losing party, if any, in the arbitration shall pay any fees and expenses of the arbitration and the Qualified Audit Arbitrators. If there is no losing party, then each of Landlord and Tenant shall pay any fees and expenses of its respective Qualified Audit Arbitrator, and 50% of the reasonable fees of the third Qualified Audit Arbitrator; and

(5) Any overpayment or underpayment of Expenses or Taxes determined by the Qualified Audit Arbitrators (or Arbitrator, as applicable) shall be paid as follows. If there was an underpayment then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such underpayment in a lump sum as Rent within 30 days after Landlord gives to Tenant notice of the decision pursuant to Section 4.6(e)(3). If there was an overpayment then Landlord shall credit the amount of the overpayment against Rent next due. Landlord’s and Tenant’s obligations under this Section 4.6(e)(5) shall survive the expiration of this Lease.

4.7. Credits and Refunds. With respect to any credit against Rent provided under this Article 4, if this Lease shall expire or terminate before any such credit shall have been fully applied, or if the amount of such credit shall exceed the aggregate amount of Rent next due and payable for the immediately following month, then Landlord shall, within 30 days after the calculation of such credit, refund to Tenant the unapplied balance of such credit, after deducting any monies then owed and payable by Tenant to Landlord.

- 27 -


(2) From and after the Execution Date, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, provide HVAC (including, without limitation, all its supplemental air conditioning requirements) to the portion of the Premises located on the third floor (and the seventh floor, if Tenant is leasing same) of the 20 South Wacker Building.

(3) From and after the date which Tenant ceases to conduct open outcry trading operations in the Premises (the “Trading Termination Date”), the following shall occur:

(A) The chiller plant located in the mechanical room in the 30 South Wacker Building (the “20 South Wacker HVAC System”) shall have become the property of Landlord upon its acquisition of the Building. Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that Tenant has no right (except pursuant to this Lease), title, or interest in the 20 South Wacker HVAC System. Within 120 days after the Trading Termination Date, Landlord shall install all the necessary equipment to connect the refrigeration capacity of the 20 South Wacker HVAC System to the HVAC system located in the 30 South Wacker Building (such installation and connection work shall hereinafter be referred to as the “HVAC Connection Work”), such that the HVAC Connection Work shall cause the refrigeration capacity of each to cool the chilled water loop of both the 20 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, within 45 days after Landlord delivers to Tenant an invoice therefor after such work is substantially completed, 50% of the capital costs of the HVAC Connection Work (which Tenant reimbursement shall not exceed $300,000, i.e., 50% of an aggregate capital costs of $600,000); and

(B) Landlord shall supply Tenant with chilled water for Tenant’s supplemental air conditioning equipment and systems in place as of the Execution Date (the “Tenant’s Supplemental HVAC System”). Prior to the Trading Termination Date, Tenant shall deliver a notice to Landlord specifying the number of tons of chilled water that Tenant will require for the Tenant’s Supplemental HVAC System (such amount not to exceed 1,000 tons of chilled water (if Tenant elects Scheme F-1 pursuant to Section 2.5) or 1,200 tons of chilled water (if Tenant elects Scheme F-2 pursuant to Section 2.5)) (the “Reserved Tonnage”). Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, for Tenant’s usage of chilled water, an amount equal to $100.00 per ton per annum of connected load of the Reserved Tonnage (and, to the extent applicable, any Tenant’s use of chilled water in excess of the Reserved Tonnage); it being agreed that such amount shall be subject to 3.5% increases on January 1st of each year during the Term, which amount shall be payable within 45 days after Landlord delivers to Tenant a bill therefor; and

(C) Tenant shall relocate Tenant’s chilled water cross connect pipes currently located on the south wall of the 10th floor of the 10 South Wacker Building to the core of the 10th floor of the 10 South Wacker Building, as shown on Exhibit M.

(4) If Tenant desires to discontinue use of Landlord’s chilled water for Tenant’s Supplemental HVAC System or any of its supplemental HVAC requirements, Tenant may install and connect to a new cooling system utilizing an outside source of chilled water or river water (which cooling system may be used, in whole or in part, to cool Tenant’s Generator). Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant to locate and make available to Tenant at no additional charge riser and other mechanical space for Tenant’s use as reasonably necessary to

 

- 28 -


install such new cooling system. Tenant shall pay directly to the applicable utility providers the costs of operating such cooling systems, including the cost of chilled water, electricity, and maintenance. Tenant shall install the heat exchangers and other equipment associated with such new cooling system in a portion of the Fixed Term Support Space located on level P-1 of the 10 South Wacker Building (P1-106) as shown on Exhibit M. Landlord shall provide Tenant with riser space for two pipes each up to 12” in diameter from P1-106 to above the finished ceiling of the 10th floor of 10 South Wacker Building. Tenant shall utilize such relocated chilled water cross connect pipes to connect such new cooling system to the portions of the Premises located in the 20 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building. Tenant shall install a connection from such relocated chilled water cross connect pipe to the existing riser located behind Stairwell #2 in the 30 South Wacker Building to service the portion of the Premises located in the 30 South Wacker Building. Tenant shall utilize the four fans located on the sixth floor interstitial area to service the third floor of the 20 South Wacker Building, as well as the four fans located on the second floor interstitial area to service both the second floor interstitial area and the third floor of the 20 South Wacker Building. Landlord shall install variable fan drives to the existing four supply and return fans in the sixth floor interstitial area of the 20 South Wacker Building and rebalance the flows. If Tenant is leasing the seventh floor of the 20 South Wacker Building as contemplated under this Lease (under Scheme F-2), Tenant shall utilize the four fans located on the tenth floor interstitial area to service said seventh floor. Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall perform any necessary maintenance or other necessary upgrades to such fans. In addition, Tenant may install additional HVAC equipment and piping (and associated ductwork, conduits, and wiring), including connections through two 16” pipes to utilize river water, all as shown on (and in accordance with) Exhibit M. If Tenant is unable (or determines the same is not economically practical) to obtain chilled water from a purchased system (or river water, as applicable) for any reason, Tenant and Landlord shall review options to provide additional cooling required by Tenant, including the installation by Tenant of a new chiller plant in P1-106 with provisions to connect to river water or the existing base building condenser water system at the 10 South Wacker Building, the 20 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building, as shown on Exhibit M.

- 29 -


exhaust system existing on the Execution Date which services both the kitchen in the Premises and certain retail tenants, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its proportionate share (such share to be based on the number of users at the time in question) of the cost of such cleaning and maintenance until (1) Tenant delivers to Landlord notice that Tenant is no longer utilizing such kitchen exhaust system and (2) Tenant actually ceases to utilize such kitchen exhaust system.

(e) Services Prior to Tenant’s Occupancy. With respect to each floor of the Premises in each of the 10 South Wacker Building, the 20 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building, from and after the date that each such floor is Substantially Completed (but prior to the date that Tenant occupies each such floor for the conduct of Tenant’s business), Landlord shall provide normal freight elevator service (provided, that Tenant shall pay for any incremental out-of-pocket expenses with respect to cab-roof hoisting and the provision of elevator mechanic operators, as well as loading dock and other security personnel). During such period of time, Landlord shall provide, at Tenant’s expense (payable by Tenant within 45 days after Landlord delivers to Tenant an invoice therefor), refuse removal (including dumpsters), and any other services requested by Tenant or Tenant’s contractor which Landlord agrees to provide.

6.4. Telecommunication Services. Tenant shall contract directly with third party providers of telecommunications services and shall be solely responsible for paying for all telephone, data transmission, video and other telecommunication services (“Telecommunication Services”) subject to the following:

(a) Providers. Each Telecommunication Services provider who does not already provide service to the Building shall be subject to Landlord’s approval in its reasonable discretion.

Tenant may continue to use Tenant’s existing Telecommunications Services providers (or their respective successors) as of the Execution Date.

(b) Tenant’s Wiring. Other than that which is currently in place (and replacements thereof) and other than that which is run through the Tenant Exclusive Telecom Closets and the risers associated therewith (and replacements thereof), Landlord may designate reasonably convenient locations for all wires, cables, fibers, equipment, and connections (“Tenant’s Wiring”) for Tenant’s Telecommunication Services, and, subject to Section 2.4, restrict and control access to telephone cabinets and rooms pursuant to the Building’s security procedures. Landlord’s access to such cabinets and rooms on full Tenant floors shall be governed by Section 16.17. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Tenant may not use or access the Base Building, Common Areas or roof for Tenant’s Wiring without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

6.5. Special Circumstances.

(a) Except as expressly set forth herein, without breaching this Lease or creating any liability on the part of Landlord, Landlord may interrupt, limit or discontinue any utility or services Landlord provides under this Article 6 (“Landlord Provided Services”) or which are obtained by Tenant under this Article 6 (“Tenant Provided Services”) under any of the following circumstances: (1) in an emergency; (2) to comply with laws; (3) to repair and

 

- 30 -


maintain the Project; or (4) to modify, renovate or improve the Project; provided, that in the case of interruptions pursuant to clauses (3) and (4), Landlord shall coordinate any such interruptions with Tenant so as not to unreasonably disrupt Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises.

(b) For purposes of this Lease “Untenantable” means that all or any portion of the Premises is not usable or available by reason of damage, Interruption of Landlord Provided Services, or lack of access by normal means (including escalators and elevators) for the normal conduct of business, which shall include the practical inability to use any portion of the Premises by reason of damage, Interruption of Landlord Provided Services, or inaccessibility to any other portion of the Premises, and Tenant does not actually use such portion of the Premises. “Interruption of Landlord Provided Services” means (1) any interruption, material limitation or discontinuance of any utility or services expressly provided by Landlord to Tenant under this Article 6, provided that such interruption, material limitation or discontinuance is not caused by (A) a casualty or condemnation described under Articles 10 or 12 or (B) Tenant, Tenant’s contractors or any of their respective agents or employees; or (2) any interruption, material limitation, or discontinuance of any utility or services not expressly provided by Landlord to Tenant under this Article 6 without regard to the cause thereof (including Force Majeure), but caused by Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. If an Interruption of Landlord Provided Services occurs and continues for a period in excess of 72 hours after Tenant gives to Landlord notice of such Interruption of Landlord Provided Services from Tenant, and as a result of such Interruption of Landlord Provided Services all or any portion of the Premises is rendered Untenantable, then, commencing upon the expiration of such 72-hour period, (i) if such Interruption of Landlord Provided Services is caused by circumstances that are within Landlord’s reasonable control to remedy, Tenant’s Rent will abate in proportion to the portion of the Premises so rendered Untenantable for so long as such Interruption of Landlord Provided Services continues, or (ii) if such Interruption of Landlord Provided Services is caused by circumstances that are not within Landlord’s reasonable control, then 50% of Tenant’s Rent will abate in proportion to the portion of the Premises so rendered Untenantable for so long as such Interruption of Landlord Provided Services continues.

(c) If an Interruption of Landlord Provided Services occurs and continues for a period in excess of 270 consecutive days after Tenant gives to Landlord notice of such Interruption of Landlord Provided Services, and if such Interruption of Landlord Provided Services renders all or substantially all of the Premises Untenantable and Tenant does not actually use such portion of the Premises or conduct Tenant’s business at the Premises, then commencing upon the expiration of such 270-day period, Tenant shall have the right, upon giving to Landlord written notice within 30 days after the expiration of such 270-day period, to terminate this Lease as of the giving of such notice. Tenant hereby acknowledges that, except as expressly provided in Articles 10 and 12, Tenant’s sole right to terminate this Lease by reason of an Interruption of Landlord Provided Services is as expressly set forth in this Section 6.5(c), and Tenant hereby waives any right that Tenant may otherwise have at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any right to claim a constructive eviction) to terminate this Lease based on an Interruption of Landlord Provided Services.

(d) Without limiting Tenant’s rights under Section 6.5(b) and Section 6.5(c), in no event shall Tenant be entitled to any abatement of Rent or right to terminate this Lease by reason of any failure, interruption, limit, or discontinuance of any Tenant Provided Services

 

- 31 -


(unless constituting an Interruption of Landlord Provided Services with respect to utilities as described in Section 6.5(b)), and Tenant hereby waives any right at law or in equity to do so.

(e) Without limiting those reasons for an irregularity or stoppage of services that may be beyond Landlord’s control, any such irregularity or stoppage that is required in order to comply with any laws will be deemed caused by a reason beyond Landlord’s control.

6.6. Landlord shall not voluntarily reduce (a) the amount of electric current available to the Premises as of the Execution Date or (b) the number of physical sources from which electric current is supplied to the Building.

 

7. REPAIRS

7.1. Tenant’s Repairs. Except as provided in Articles 10 and 12, during the Term Tenant shall, at Tenant’s cost, repair, maintain and replace, if necessary, the Leasehold Improvements and keep the Premises in good order, condition and repair. Tenant’s work under this Section 7.1 must be performed in compliance with law and in a good and workmanlike manner with materials of at least Building Standard. If any repair that is the obligation of Tenant affects the Base Building, then such repair shall be performed by Landlord at Tenant’s reasonable expense; provided, that if such repair obligation affects a portion of the Base Building that exclusively serves Tenant, then Landlord and Tenant shall cooperate to reasonably determine which of Landlord or Tenant shall perform such repair obligation (but in either case such repair obligation shall be performed at Tenant’s reasonable expense). If Tenant fails to perform any of Tenant’s obligations under this Section 7.1 after Landlord gives to Tenant written notice and a reasonable opportunity to perform such obligations (but in any case Tenant shall commence performance of such obligations within 30 days after Landlord gives to Tenant such notice), then Landlord may perform such obligations and Tenant shall pay, as Rent, to Landlord 110% of the reasonable cost of such performance within 30 days after the date Landlord gives to Tenant an invoice therefor. For purpose of performing such obligations, or to inspect the Premises, Landlord may enter the Premises upon giving to Tenant reasonable prior notice (in cases of actual or suspected emergency, only such prior notice as is practicable, if any, shall be required) without liability to Tenant for any loss or damage incurred as a result of such entry (unless caused by Landlord’s or its agents’ negligence or willful misconduct); provided, that Landlord will take reasonable steps in connection with such entry to minimize any disruption to Tenant’s business or its use of the Premises and Tenant may require an employee of Tenant or its security service, if Tenant makes such employee available, to accompany Landlord’s personnel (or its agents or contractors) while in the Premises; and provided further, that absent an actual or suspected emergency, Tenant may reasonably restrict Landlord’s access to all Secured Areas of the Premises. “Secured Areas” shall consist of any areas of the Premises reasonably identified by Tenant as having extraordinary security or confidentiality requirements such that such areas are kept locked or inaccessible to persons unauthorized by Tenant (and trading areas shall not automatically be deemed Secured Areas). Tenant shall notify Landlord of (a) any fire or other casualty in the Premises, (b) any damage to or defect in the Premises, including the fixtures and equipment in the Premises, for the repair of which Tenant believes Landlord is responsible, and (c) any damage to or defect in any parts of or appurtenances to the Mechanical Systems located in or passing through the Premises promptly after Tenant learns of the same.

Except in the case of an actual or perceived emergency, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize disrupting the ordinary conduct of Tenant’s business in the Premises in performing Landlord’s duties under this Section 7.2; provided, that in no event shall Landlord be required to employ premium or overtime labor. Subject to Sections 15.9, 15.10, and 15.11, Tenant may not repair or maintain the Project on Landlord’s behalf or offset any Rent for any repair or maintenance of the Project that is undertaken by Tenant.

 

8. ALTERATIONS

8.1. Alterations by Tenant. “Alterations” means any modification, addition or improvement to the Premises or Leasehold Improvements made by Tenant during the Term, including any modification to the Base Building or Common Areas required by law or governing authority as a condition to performing an Alteration, and including any Leasehold Improvements made by Tenant to prepare the Premises for Tenant’s occupancy after Landlord’s performance of Landlord’s Work (the “Tenant’s Work”). Alterations shall be made at Tenant’s expense, and shall be subject to the following:

(a) Consent Required. All Alterations, except as specifically set forth below in Section 8.1(e), require Landlord’s prior written consent. If a Design Problem exists, Landlord may withhold its consent in Landlord’s sole discretion; otherwise, Landlord will not unreasonably withhold its consent. Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall (1) submit to Landlord for Landlord’s approval detailed plans and specifications (the “Plans”) of each proposed Alteration (other than Decorative Alterations), and with respect to any Alteration affecting any Mechanical Systems, evidence that such Alteration has been designed by, or reviewed and approved by, Landlord’s designated engineer for the affected Mechanical System, (2) obtain all permits, approvals, and certificates required by any governmental or quasi-governmental entity, (3) furnish to Landlord duplicate original policies or certificates of workers’ compensation (covering all persons to be employed by Tenant and Tenant’s contractors and subcontractors in connection with such Alteration, commercial general liability (including property damage coverage), business auto insurance, and Builder’s Risk coverage (as described in Article 9) all in such form, with such companies, for such periods and in such amounts as Landlord may reasonably require, naming Landlord, landlord’s agents and contractors and any of their employees, any ground lessor and any mortgagee as additional insureds, and (4) except in connection with Tenant’s Work and, upon Landlord’s request, furnish to Landlord reasonably satisfactory evidence of Tenant’s ability to complete and to fully pay for any Alterations (other than Decorative Alterations) that exceed the cost of $5,000,000, in the aggregate. Unless Tenant obtains Landlord’s prior written consent to the Alterations which constitute Required Removal Items becoming part of the Premises to be tendered to Landlord upon the date of termination of this Lease, Landlord may require Tenant to remove such Required Removal Items and restore the Premises pursuant to Section 3.4 upon the date of termination of this Lease. If Landlord fails to reject or object to an Alteration within 10 days of Landlord’s receipt from Tenant of full and final Plans therefor (including, to the extent required, fully certified, stamped and sealed

 

- 33 -


architectural and/or engineering plans), then Tenant may give to Landlord a reminder notice stating in all-capital bold-faced type, “IF LANDLORD FAILS TO OBJECT TO THIS REMINDER NOTICE OF REQUEST FOR CONSENT TO AN ALTERATION WITHIN 5 DAYS THEN LANDLORD SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE APPROVED SUCH REQUEST”, and if Landlord shall fail to reject or object to such Alteration within 5 days after Tenant gives such reminder notice to Landlord then Landlord shall be deemed to have approved such Alteration.

(b) Design Problem Defined. “Design Problem” means a proposed Alteration which:

(1) Does not comply with laws;

(2) Does not meet or exceed the Building Standard;

(3) Exceeds the capacity (unless part of the Alterations would increase capacity accordingly), adversely affects, is incompatible with, or impairs Landlord’s ability to maintain, operate, alter, modify or improve the Base Building;

(4) Affects the exterior appearance of the Building or Common Areas;

(5) Except for Tenant’s Work or work performed as contemplated in Article 6, involves floor cuts, floor coring, adding new internal stairways, or the installation of vaults or structural steel;

(6) Violates any insurance regulations or standards for a fire-resistive office building;

(7) Causes a “work of visual art” to become “incorporated in or made part of a building” (as defined in the Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990); or

(8) Locates any Leasehold Improvements, equipment, Tenant’s Wiring or Tenant’s Personal Property outside the Premises, including on the roof of the Building, in Common Areas or in telecommunication or electrical closets, except as specifically permitted by this Lease.

(c) Performance of Alterations. Alterations shall be performed by Tenant in a good and workmanlike manner according to plans and specifications approved by Landlord in accordance with Section 8.1(a). All Alterations shall comply with law and insurance requirements. All Alterations will be performed by qualified contractors that meet Landlord’s reasonable insurance requirements and are otherwise reasonably approved by Landlord. If Landlord does not respond to Tenant’s request for consent to any firm or contractor for Alterations work within 10 days after Landlord receives Tenant’s request then Tenant shall give to Landlord a reminder notice stating in all-capital bold-faced type, “IF LANDLORD FAILS TO RESPOND TO THIS REMINDER NOTICE OF REQUEST FOR CONSENT TO A FIRM OR CONTRACTOR WITHIN 5 DAYS THEN LANDLORD SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE APPROVED SUCH REQUEST”, and if Landlord fails to respond to such reminder notice within such 5 days then Landlord shall be deemed to have approved such request. Once

 

- 34 -


Landlord approves a firm or contractor, Tenant need not resubmit such firm or contractor for approval for the same project unless Landlord withdraws such approval by giving to Tenant notice, which withdrawal shall state the reasons therefor. Promptly after completing any Alterations requiring Landlord’s consent hereunder, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord “as-built” Plans for such Alterations prepared on an AutoCAD Computer Assisted Drafting and Design System (or such other system or medium as Landlord may accept) (the “CAD System”), using naming conventions issued by the American Institute of Architects in June, 1990 (or such other naming conventions as Landlord may accept) and magnetic computer media of such record drawings and specifications translated into DFX format or another format acceptable to Landlord. Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall, as and when required, promptly obtain certificates of partial and final approval of such Alterations required by any governmental or quasi-governmental entity and shall furnish Landlord with copies thereof. Upon completion of such Alterations, Tenant shall provide to Landlord copies of all construction contracts, proof of payment for all labor and materials, a copy of the recorded notice of completion, and final unconditional waivers of lien from all contractors, subcontractors, materialmen, suppliers and others having lien rights with respect to such Alterations, in the form prescribed by Illinois law.

(d) Cost Reimbursement. As to Alterations (excluding Tenant’s Work) requiring Landlord’s consent hereunder, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the actual reasonable cost that Landlord incurs to review Tenant’s plans therefor; provided, such cost to Tenant shall in no event exceed $0.25 per USF of planned space (i.e., any portion of the Premises where the proposed Alterations are to be made); and provided further, that if Tenant utilizes Landlord’s engineers for the Building to prepare the Plans for the Alteration in question, Tenant shall not be charged for review of the work of such engineer.

(e) Alterations Without Landlord’s Consent. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall have the right, (1) upon giving written or oral notice to Landlord’s Building management office, but without obtaining Landlord’s consent, to make Decorative Alterations to the Premises or perform low voltage cabling installation or removal (provided that such installation or removal does not involve a Design Problem, will be performed entirely within the Premises, and does not affect in any material respect the Building Structure or the Mechanical Systems), and (2) upon giving Landlord at least 5 business days prior notice of the proposed Alteration, together with the Plans required pursuant to Section 8.1(a), and provided that such Alteration does not involve a Design Problem, will be performed entirely within the Premises, and does not affect in any material respect the Building Structure or the Mechanical Systems, then without obtaining Landlord’s consent, to make such Alteration to the Premises. “Decorative Alterations” are Alterations that (i) consist of cosmetic changes to the interior of the Premises (such as painting, wall coverings, or floor coverings) that do not affect or alter the Base Building, (ii) do not require a governmental permit of any kind, and (iii) are otherwise performed in accordance with the terms of this Lease.

8.2. Alterations by Landlord. Landlord may modify, renovate or improve the Project as Landlord deems appropriate; provided, that Landlord uses commercially reasonable efforts to minimize disrupting the ordinary conduct of Tenant’s business in the Premises; and provided further, that such modifications, renovations and improvements shall not unreasonably reduce Tenant’s access to the Premises or Tenant’s ability to use the Common Areas or reduce Landlord Provided Services below the levels required to be provided pursuant to Article 6 or reduce any Tenant Provided Service.

 

- 35 -


8.3. Liens and Disputes. Tenant shall keep title to the Project free of any liens caused by Tenant, its Affiliates, and their agents and contractors, and shall promptly take whatever action is required to have any such lien either (a) released and removed of record or (b) contested, in either case within 30 days after Landlord gives to Tenant notice thereof. If Tenant elects to contest any such lien, Tenant shall conduct such contest diligently and in good faith and, at Tenant’s expense, obtain title insurance insuring over the notice of lien or the lien from Chicago Title Insurance Company, or another local, reputable title company acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, in favor of Landlord and any mortgagee or ground lessor with an interest in the Project, or, at Tenant’s election, provide Landlord with alternative security satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion insuring over any possible loss or expense which may arise from non-discharge of such lien. Tenant shall, promptly after the final determination of such contest, pay or discharge any decision or judgment rendered, together with all costs, charges, interest and penalties incurred or imposed or assessed in connection with such contest. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord from and against any and all Claims, costs, and expenses that Landlord reasonably incurs as a result of Tenant’s violation of this Section 8.3.

8.4. Labor Relations. Tenant shall not employ, or permit the employment of, any contractor, mechanic, or laborer, or permit any materials to be delivered to or used in the Project, if, in Landlord’s sole judgment, such employment, delivery or use will interfere or cause any conflict with other contractors, mechanics or laborers engaged in the construction, maintenance or operation of the Project by Landlord, Tenant or others. If such interference or conflict occurs, upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall cause all contractors, mechanics or laborers causing such interference or conflict to leave the Project immediately.

8.5. Heavy Equipment. Tenant shall give to Landlord notice prior to moving any heavy machinery, heavy equipment, freight, bulky matter, or fixtures (collectively, “Equipment”) into or out of the Project and shall pay to Landlord any costs actually incurred by Landlord in connection therewith. If such Equipment requires special handling, Tenant agrees (a) to employ only persons holding all necessary licenses to perform such work, (b) all work performed in connection therewith shall comply with all applicable laws, and (c) such work shall be done only during hours designated by Landlord.

8.6. No Representation of Compliance. The approval of Plans, or consent by Landlord to the making of any Alterations, does not constitute Landlord’s representation that such Plans or Alterations comply with any laws. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or any other party in connection with Landlord’s approval of any Plans, or Landlord’s consent to Tenant’s performing any Alterations. If any Alterations made by or on behalf of Tenant require Landlord to make any alterations or improvements to any portion of the Project to comply with any laws, Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with such alterations or improvements.

(8) Insurance covering the Leasehold Improvements and Tenant’s Personal Property against loss or damage due to earthquake or difference in conditions perils. Tenant may elect to self-insure this coverage.

(c) Proof of Insurance. Tenant shall provide Landlord with certificates of insurance or other reasonable proof that the coverage required under Section 9.1(a) above is in effect. Tenant shall provide reasonable proof of renewal or replacement at least 5 business days prior to any policy expiration date. Tenant’s failure to provide any insurance required by this Lease shall not be construed as a waiver of liability or any limit of damages, and Landlord and Tenant expressly agree that the requirement to carry insurance does not imply that such required insurance is adequate to fully compensate the insured parties for the damages so insured.

 

- 38 -


(d) Waiver of Subrogation. Each policy of insurance required pursuant to Sections 9.1(a)(2), (3), (4), and (8) shall include a provision or endorsement in which the insurer waives its right of subrogation against Landlord and each Additional Insured.

Each of the policies required under Section 9.2(a) shall otherwise have those limits (except that the insurance described in Section 9.2(a)(2) shall always cover full replacement), deductibles, retentions and other terms that Landlord prudently determines and shall be written with insurance companies licensed to do business in the state of Illinois having a rating of not less than A- and a FSC of at least VII by A. M. Best Company.

 

10. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

10.1. Damage and Repair. If all or any portion of the Project is damaged by fire or other casualty, then the following provisions shall apply:

(a) Landlord’s Estimates. Landlord shall assess the damage to the Project (but not the Leasehold Improvements) and as soon as reasonably practicable notify Tenant of Landlord’s reasonable estimate of the time required to substantially complete repairs and restoration of the Project from the date of such estimate taking into account the time periods

The period of time set forth in the Repair Estimate is referred to as the “Repair Estimate Period”. In the Repair Estimate, Landlord shall also estimate the time period that the Premises will be Untenantable (the “Interruption Period Estimate”‘) taking into account any period of up to 120 days that will be required to restore or repair the Leasehold Improvements. Within thirty 30 days after the later of the casualty, issuance of the Repair Estimate, or, in the case of Landlord only, receipt of a denial of coverage from Landlord’s insurer, each of Landlord and Tenant may terminate the Lease by giving to the other written notice on the following conditions:

(1) Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease if the Premises or any material portion thereof is Untenantable and either:

(A) The Repair Estimate Period during which the Premises or any material portion thereof in any of the 10 South Wacker Building, the 20 South Wacker Building, or the 30 South Wacker Building will remain Untenantable exceeds 365 days, or

(B) The damage or destruction occurs in the last 12 Months of the Term and all options to extend the Term have expired; or

(C) The repair and restoration necessary so that no material portion of the Project will continue to be Untenantable is not substantially covered by insurance maintained or required to be maintained by Landlord (subject only to those deductibles or retentions Landlord elected to maintain) or Landlord’s insurer finally and unconditionally denies coverage.

(2) Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease if the Interruption Period Estimate exceeds 365 days.

(3) If Tenant so elects, Tenant may render void any election by Landlord to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 10.1(a)(1)(A) by giving to Landlord written notice (a “Voiding Notice”) within 30 days after Landlord gives to Tenant such termination notice; provided, that (A) there are at least three years remaining in the Term, or, if there are fewer than three years remaining in the Term, that Tenant exercises, in accordance with this Lease, an available Extension Option at or prior to the time of the giving of such Voiding Notice, (B) the cost of the Base Building repairs will be covered by insurance in all material respects, excluding any deductibles or retentions Landlord elected to maintain, and no material amount of such cost is uninsured or subject to any final or unconditional denial of claim or coverage by any insurance provider, (C) Tenant covenants in writing to restore the Leasehold Improvements as required herein, and occupy that portion of the Premises occupied by Tenant prior to the Casualty, (D) less than 50% of the Building is damaged, and (E) Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 10.1(a)(2), and shall not terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 10.1(b)(1) so long as Landlord is diligently pursuing the repairs and restoration.

(b) Repairs. If neither party terminates this Lease pursuant to Section 10.01(a) above or if Landlord terminates this Lease but Tenant timely gives to Landlord a Voiding Notice, then this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and the following provisions shall apply:

(1) Landlord shall repair and restore the Project (but not the Leasehold Improvements) to the condition existing prior to such damage, except for modifications required by law. Landlord shall perform such work diligently and continuously with the intent of completing such repair and restoration work on or before the expiration of the Repair Estimate Period. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, if Landlord fails to substantially complete the repair of any portion of the Project necessary for Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises for the purpose of repairing and restoring the Leasehold Improvements within 180 days after the last day of the Repair Estimate Period, subject to delays for insurance adjustments, delays caused by matters beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, and delays caused by Tenant (“Final Repair Period”), then Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving to Landlord written notice not later than 15 days after last day of the Final Repair Period. If Tenant gives to Landlord such notice then this Lease shall terminate effective as of the date such notice was given. If Tenant shall not timely give to Landlord such notice then Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section l0.1(b)(1) shall be void and of no further force or effect.

(2) Tenant shall repair and restore the Leasehold Improvements diligently and with reasonable promptness to the condition existing prior to such damage, but not less than then current Building Standards, except for modifications required by law.

10.2. Rent Abatement. If, as a result of the damage or destruction described in Section 10.1, any portion of the Premises becomes Untenantable and Tenant does not actually use such Untenantable portion of the Premises for more than 3 consecutive business days, then Tenant’s Base Rent and, if applicable, Additional Rent for such Untenantable portion of the Premises not used by Tenant shall be abated from the date Tenant ceased such use until the earlier of the date (a) the damaged or destroyed portion of the Premises becomes tenantable for the operation of Tenant’s business, or (b) 120 days after Landlord completes Landlord’s repairs and restoration of the Base Building, including all Common Areas. Tenant’s sole remedy against Landlord for damage or destruction of any portion of the Premises is termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 10.1(b)(1) and abatement of Base Rent and Additional Rent under this Section 10.2, and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any other amount, including damages to Tenant’s Personal Property, consequential damages, actual or constructive eviction, or abatement of any other item of Rent.

If the indemnified party fails promptly to give an Indemnified Party Notice or if the indemnified party shall not afford the indemnifying party the right to defend and control the defense of any such action or proceeding then, in either of such events, the indemnifying party shall have no obligation under the applicable indemnity set forth

 

- 43 -


in this Lease with respect to such action or proceeding or other actions or proceedings involving the same or related facts. If the indemnifying party shall defend any such action or proceeding, then the following shall apply:

(1) the indemnified party shall cooperate with the indemnifying party (or its insurer) in the defense of any such action or proceeding in such manner as the indemnifying party (or its insurer) may from time to time reasonably request and the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the costs of any separate counsel employed by the indemnified party;

(2) the indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement made without the indemnifying party’s consent;

(3) if such action or proceeding can be settled by the payment of money and without the need to admit liability on the indemnified party’s part and without any civil or criminal penalties being imposed upon the indemnified party, then the indemnifying party shall have the right to settle such action or proceeding without the indemnified party’s consent and the indemnifying party shall have no obligation under the applicable indemnity set forth in this Lease with respect to such action or proceeding or other actions or proceedings involving the same or related facts if the indemnified party refuses to agree to such a settlement; and

(b) If an indemnifying party shall, in good faith, believe that a Claim set forth in an Indemnified Party Notice is or may not be within the scope of the indemnifying party’s indemnity set forth in this Lease then, pending determination of that question, the indemnifying party shall not be deemed to be in default under this Lease by reason of its failure or refusal to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party therefrom or to pay such costs, expenses and liabilities; provided, that if it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Claim was within the scope of such indemnifying party’s indemnity set forth in this Lease then such indemnifying party shall be liable for any judgment or reasonable settlement and any reasonable legal fees incurred by the party entitled to indemnity hereunder, together with interest at the Default Rate on the outstanding amount of all such costs and expenses from the date paid by the indemnified party (or, if later, the date the notice of such Claim was given to the indemnifying party) until the indemnifying party pays to the indemnified party all such amounts in full.

(a) Total Taking. If, because of a Taking, substantially all of the Premises are Untenantable for substantially all of the remaining Term, then this Lease shall terminate on the date of the Taking.

(b) Partial Taking. If a Taking does not cause this Lease to be terminated pursuant to Section 12.1(a), then Landlord shall restore to the extent practicable (and alter, as necessary) the Common Areas, the Premises (and those other portions of the Project that Tenant has rights to use under this Lease prior to the Taking) to be tenantable, unless the Lease is terminated by either Landlord or Tenant under the following circumstances:

(1) Landlord may terminate this Lease upon giving to Tenant 60 days prior written notice if Landlord reasonably determines that it is uneconomical to restore or alter the Project to be tenantable.

(2) Tenant may terminate this Lease upon giving to Landlord 60 days prior written notice if the Taking causes more than 33% of the Premises to be Untenantable for the remainder of the Term, and Tenant cannot economically conduct Tenant’s business in the remaining Premises.

(c) If this Lease is not terminated under Sections 12.1(a) or (b), the Rent (Base Rent and Additional Rent) shall be reduced for the term of the Taking based upon the RSF (of Office Space) or USF (of Fixed Term Support Space) of the Premises (as applicable) made Untenantable by the Taking.

12.2. Awards. Landlord shall be entitled, except as otherwise hereinafter provided, to receive the entire award in the Taking proceeding, including, without limitation, any award made for the value of the estate vested by this Lease in Tenant or any value attributable to the unexpired portion of the Term, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord any and all right, title and interest of Tenant now or hereafter arising in or to any such award or any part thereof, and Tenant shall be entitled to receive no part of such award; provided, that nothing shall preclude Tenant from participating in any such condemnation proceeding to claim or receive from the condemning authority any compensation to which Tenant may otherwise lawfully be entitled in such case in respect of Tenant’s Personal Property, the unamortized value of the Leasehold Improvements (but only to the extent such Leasehold Improvements were paid for by Tenant (and not reimbursed by Landlord)), or moving expenses; provided, that the same do not include any value of the estate vested by this Lease in Tenant or of the unexpired portion of the Term and do not reduce the amount available to Landlord or materially delay the payment thereof.

 

- 45 -


12.3. Temporary Taking. If all or any portion of the Premises is Taken temporarily during the Term for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, Tenant shall give to Landlord prompt notice thereof and the Term shall not be reduced or affected in any way and Tenant shall continue to pay all Rent payable by Tenant without reduction or abatement and to perform all of Tenant’s other obligations under this Lease, except to the extent Tenant is prevented from doing so by the condemning authority, and Tenant shall be entitled to receive any award or payment from the condemning authority for such use, which shall be received, held and applied by Tenant as a trust fund for payment of the Rent falling due.

13.2. Prohibited Transfers. Tenant may not enter into a Transfer or other agreement to use or occupy the Premises that provides for rent or other compensation based in whole or in part on the net income or profits from the business operated in the Premises. Tenant may not enter into a Transfer if the proposed transferee is directly or indirectly related to the Landlord under Section 856 of the Code; provided, that Landlord has given to Tenant notice and appropriate evidence thereof. Any such Transfers in violation of this Section 13.2 shall be considered null, void and of no force or effect.

13.3. Consent Not Required.

(a) Upon giving notice to Landlord, but without Landlord’s prior consent, Tenant may effect a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee; provided, that as to any permitted Transfer resulting from a transaction involving publicly traded equity securities, Tenant may give to Landlord notice thereof promptly after such Transfer occurs. A “Permitted Transferee” is any person or entity that meets the requirements of either Section 13.3(a)(1) or (2):

(1) The transferee (who in the case of Section 13.1(c) or (d) may be Tenant itself) is an Affiliate of Tenant; provided, that in the case of any such Transfer, the Transfer is for a valid business purpose and not to avoid any obligations under this Lease, and the transferee assumes by written instrument satisfactory to Landlord all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.

(b) In addition to Tenant’s Transfer rights (including the rights to sublease) set forth in Section 13.3(a), upon giving to Landlord notice, but without Landlord’s prior consent, Tenant may sublet to one or more subtenants up to 20% of the Premises in the aggregate at any date of determination (“Permitted Sublease”); provided, that:

(1) Any Permitted Sublease shall not permit the subtenant thereunder to use, or permit the use of, the Premises or any part thereof for:

(A) The offices or business of a governmental or quasi-governmental bureau, department or agency, foreign or domestic, including an autonomous governmental corporation or diplomatic or trade mission;

(2) Such proposed subtenant is not named on the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury or any such similar list maintained by the state or federal government; and

(3) Except if such proposed subtenant is a member firm of Tenant or Tenant’s customer or of an Affiliated Entity or its customer, such proposed subtenant is not (A) an existing tenant of the Building or an Affiliate of an existing tenant of the Building, or (B) a party with whom Landlord is actively negotiating to lease space in the Building (or has, in the 6 months prior thereto, been actively negotiating to lease space in the Building); and in each case space of a comparable size is then available (or is anticipated to be available no later than the date on which the proposed sublease is scheduled to commence) for lease in the Building.

13.4. Consent Required. Each proposed Transfer other than those prohibited under Section 13.2 or permitted under Section 13.3 shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written consent, in which case the parties will proceed as follows:

(a) Tenant’s Notice. Tenant shall give to Landlord notice at least 30 days prior to the proposed Transfer of the name and address of the proposed transferee and the proposed use of the Premises, and include in such notice the Transfer documents and copies of the proposed transferee’s balance sheets and income statements (both current and for the past 2 years to the extent available) and any other information Landlord may reasonably request.

(b) Landlord’s Rights. Within 30 days after Tenant gives to Landlord Tenant’s complete notice pursuant to Section 13.4(a), Landlord may:

(1) If the proposed Transfer is either an assignment of this Lease or a sublease that in aggregate with the other subleases of the Premises in effect on the date of determination covers more than 20% of the Premises and is for all or substantially all of the then remaining Term, terminate this Lease in respect of the space that Tenant proposes to sublease (or entirely in the case of a proposed assignment) as of the proposed Transfer date.

Landlord shall pay all costs to make each of the transferred space and the remainder of the Premises a self-contained rental unit and to install any required Building corridors; or

 

- 48 -


(2) Consent or deny consent to the proposed Transfer; which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld if:

(A) The proposed use is consistent with the Use, and will not cause Landlord to be in breach of any lease, law or other agreement affecting the Project;

(B) The proposed transferee is typical of tenants that directly lease premises in comparable first class office buildings in downtown Chicago;

(C) The proposed transferee is not a governmental or diplomatic entity;

(D) The proposed transferee is not named on the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury or any such similar list maintained by the state or federal government;

(F) Tenant is not in Default under this Lease;

(G) With respect to the third floor (and the seventh floor, if Tenant is leasing same as contemplated herein) of the 20 South Wacker Building, so long as any such space is not separately demised or physically subdivided in any manner which interferes with any Landlord services provided to such floor(s) under this Lease (including Standard Services); and

(H) Tenant shall have reimbursed Landlord for all reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in consenting to such assignment or sublease, including any investigations as to the acceptability of the Transferee and all legal costs reasonably incurred in connection with the granting of any requested consent.

(c) Compelling Consent. If Landlord does not consent to a Transfer, Tenant’s sole remedy against Landlord for breach of its obligation to be reasonable shall be an action for specific performance or declaratory relief, and Tenant may not terminate this Lease or seek monetary damages, unless Tenant is able to demonstrate bad faith or willful misconduct.

(d) Assignment and Sublease Requirements. With respect to each and every subletting and/or assignment pursuant to the provisions of this Lease:

(1) the form of the proposed assignment or sublease shall be reasonably satisfactory to Landlord;

 

- 49 -


(2) no sublease of the entire Premises shall be for a term ending later than one day prior to the Expiration Date;

(3) no Transferee shall take possession of any portion of the Premises until an executed counterpart of such sublease or assignment has been delivered to Landlord and approved by Landlord as provided in Section 13.4(a), if this Lease requires approval of such sublease or assignment; and

(4) each sublease shall be subject and subordinate to this Lease and to the matters to which this Lease is or shall be subordinate, and Tenant and each Transferee shall be deemed to have agreed that upon any termination of this Lease, Tenant has hereby assigned to Landlord, and Landlord may, at its option, accept such assignment of, all right, title, and interest of Tenant as sublandlord under such sublease, together with all modifications, extensions, and renewals thereof then in effect and such Transferee shall, at Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that Landlord shall not be (A) liable for any previous act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (B) subject to any counterclaim, offset, or defense not expressly provided in such sublease or which theretofore accrued to such Transferee against Tenant, (C) bound by any previous modification of such sublease not consented to by Landlord or by any prepayment of more than one month’s rent, (D) bound to return such Transferee’s security deposit, if any, except to the extent Landlord shall receive actual possession of such deposit and such Transferee shall be entitled to the return of all or any portion of such deposit under the terms of such Transferee’s sublease, or (E) obligated to make any payment to or on behalf of such Transferee, or to perform any work in the sublet space or the Building, or in any way to prepare the subleased space for occupancy, beyond Landlord’s obligations under this Lease. The provisions of this Section 13.4(d)(5) shall be self-operative, and no further instrument shall be required to give effect to this provision; provided, that Transferee shall execute and deliver to Landlord any instruments Landlord may reasonably request to evidence and confirm such subordination and attornment.

13.5. Payments to Landlord. If Tenant enters into any assignment or sublease (other than an assignment or sublease pursuant to Section 13.3(a)), Tenant shall, within 60 days after Landlord’s consent to such assignment or sublease (or, if such assignment or sublease is permitted hereunder without Landlord’s prior consent, within 60 days after the effective date of such assignment or sublease), deliver to Landlord a list of Tenant’s reasonable third-party brokerage fees, legal fees and architectural fees paid or to be paid in connection with such transaction, the cost of Alterations paid for by Tenant to effect such Transfer, and, in the case of any sublease, any actual costs incurred by Tenant in separately demising the sublet space (collectively, “Transaction Costs”), together with a list of all of Tenant’s Property to be transferred to such Transferee. In consideration of such assignment or subletting, Tenant shall pay to Landlord:

(a) In the case of an assignment, on the effective date of the assignment, 50% of all sums and other consideration paid to Tenant by the assignee for or by reason of such assignment (including key money, bonus money and any sums paid for services rendered by

 

- 50 -


Tenant to the assignee in excess of fair market value for such services and sums paid for the sale or rental of Tenant’s Property, less the then fair market or rental value thereof) after first deducting the Transaction Costs; or

(b) In the case of a sublease, 50% of any consideration payable under the sublease to Tenant by the sublessee which exceeds on a per square foot basis the Base Rent, Tenant’s Share of Expenses and Tenant’s Share of Taxes accruing during the term of the sublease in respect of the sublet space (together with any sums paid for services rendered by Tenant to the sublessee in excess of fair market value for such services and sums paid for the sale or rental of Tenant’s Property, less the then fair market or rental value thereof) after first deducting the Transaction Costs. The sums payable under this clause shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord monthly as and when paid by the subtenant to Tenant.

Landlord and Landlord’s authorized representatives shall have the right at all reasonable times to audit the books, records and papers of Tenant relating to any Transfer (other than a Transfer pursuant to Section 13.3(a)), and shall have the right to make copies thereof.

13.6. Effect of Transfers. No Transfer shall release Tenant from any obligation under this Lease. Landlord’s acceptance of a payment from any person or entity other than Tenant shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s obligations under this Article 13. Any Transfer in violation of this Article 13 is void and of no force or effect. If Tenant is in Default of this Lease, Landlord may proceed against Tenant without exhausting any remedies against any transferee and may require (by giving to any transferee written notice) any transferee to pay rent owed Tenant directly to Landlord (which Landlord shall apply against Tenant’s Lease obligations). Termination of this Lease for any reason shall not result in a merger of estates. Each sublease shall be deemed terminated upon termination of this Lease unless Landlord notifies the subtenant in writing of Landlord’s election to assume any sublease, in which case the subtenant shall attorn to Landlord under the executory terms of the sublease. Landlord’s consent to any assignment or subletting shall not relieve Tenant from the obligation to obtain Landlord’s consent to any further assignment or subletting. In no event shall any subtenant assign or encumber its sublease or further sublet any portion of its sublet space, or otherwise suffer or permit any portion of the sublet space to be used or occupied by others.

13.7. Indemnity. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all Claims against Landlord by any Transferee or anyone claiming under or through any Transferee or by any brokers or other persons or entities claiming a commission or similar compensation in connection with the proposed assignment or sublease, irrespective of whether Landlord shall give or decline to give its consent to any proposed assignment or sublease, or if Landlord shall exercise any of its options under this Article 13.

13.8. Limitation on Consent. If Landlord consents to a proposed assignment or sublease and Tenant fails to execute and deliver to Landlord such assignment or sublease within 180 days after the giving of such consent, or the amount of space subject to any such sublease varies by more than 10% from that specified in the notice given by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 13.4(a), or the net effective rent payable under such sublease is less than 90% of the net effective rent specified in such notice, or if there are any material changes in the terms and

 

- 51 -


conditions of the proposed assignment or sublease such that Landlord would initially have been entitled to refuse its consent to such Transfer under this Article 13, then Tenant shall again comply with all of the provisions and conditions of this Article 13 before assigning this Lease or subletting all or any portion of the Premises.

If any Lessor or Mortgagee executes and delivers to Landlord a Non-Disturbance Agreement and Landlord delivers the same to Tenant, and Tenant either fails or refuses to execute and deliver said Non-Disturbance Agreement within 20 days following Landlord’s delivery of such Non-Disturbance Agreement to Tenant, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to such Superior Lease or Superior Mortgage and Tenant shall automatically be deemed to be subject to and subordinate to such Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee and Landlord shall have no further obligation to obtain a Non-Disturbance Agreement for Tenant from such Lessor or Mortgagee.

14.3. Estoppel Certificate. Within 10 days after receipt of a written request, Tenant or Landlord, as applicable, will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the requesting party a certificate upon which the requesting party and each existing or prospective Encumbrance holder or prospective purchaser of the Project or transferee of any Transfer may rely (for estoppel purposes only) confirming the following (or specifying any exceptions to the following) as of the date of such certificate:

(b) Tenant fails to perform a non-monetary Lease obligation and such failure continues for 30 days after Landlord gives to Tenant notice of such failure, or such longer period of time as is reasonable if more than 30 days is reasonably required to perform Tenant’s obligation if Tenant commences performance within this 30-day period and diligently prosecutes same to completion, except that in an emergency Landlord may require Tenant to perform this obligation as soon as is practicable (including by hiring premium labor);

- 54 -


(a) Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving to Tenant notice of Landlord’s election to do so, in which event the Term of this Lease shall end, and all right, title and interest of Tenant hereunder shall expire, on the date stated in such notice. In no event shall either re-entry or the taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease. Written notice alone shall be proof of any such election by Landlord. Any notice of cancellation of the Term pursuant to this Section 15.2(a) (or Tenant’s possession of the Premises pursuant to Section 15.2(b)) may be given simultaneously with any notice of Default given to Tenant.

(b) Landlord may terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises without terminating this Lease by giving to Tenant notice that Tenant’s right to possession shall end on the date stated in such notice, and all right of Tenant to possession of the Premises or any portion thereof shall cease on the date stated in such notice. An election by Landlord to terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises without terminating the Lease shall not preclude a subsequent election by Landlord to terminate the Lease.

(c) If Landlord terminates this Lease as provided in Section 15.2(a), or if Landlord terminates Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises as provided in Section 15.2(b), then (1) Tenant shall surrender possession of the Premises, vacate the Premises and immediately deliver possession of the Premises to Landlord; and (2) Landlord may, with due process of law, re-enter and take possession of the Premises without being liable for prosecution for such action or being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, and without diminishing any remedies for collection of Rent and without relinquishing any other right of Landlord.

(d) Landlord may enforce the provisions of this Lease and may enforce and protect the rights of Landlord by a suit or suits in equity or at law for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Lease, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy, including recovery of all moneys due or to become due from Tenant under any of the provisions of this Lease.

(e) Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, cure Tenant’s Default by making any payment or performing such other act to the extent Landlord may deem desirable. Any such cure by Landlord shall be without further notice and shall not waive or release Tenant from any obligation under this Lease. Tenant covenants and agrees to pay Landlord, upon demand, all reasonable advances, costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with such cure, including reasonable attorney’s fees, together with interest at the Default Rate, from the date such are incurred by Landlord to the date of payment to Landlord.

(f) Landlord may, without liability to Tenant or any other party and without constituting a constructive or actual eviction, suspend or discontinue furnishing or rendering to Tenant any property, material, labor, utilities or other service, wherever Landlord is obligated to furnish or render the same, so long as a Default exists under this Lease.

15.3. Remedies for Recovery of Rent and Damages.

(a) If Landlord terminates the right of Tenant to possession of the Premises without terminating this Lease:

(1) Landlord shall be entitled to recover any and all Rent due and unpaid as of the date of repossession by Landlord.

 

- 55 -


(2) Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to recover from Tenant, and Tenant shall remain liable for, all Rent and any other sums accruing as they become due under this Lease through the remainder of the stated Term.

(3) Landlord shall make commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Premises or portions thereof, so as to mitigate Landlord’s damages, to the extent required by applicable law. Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord may relet for such term or terms and on such conditions and other terms as Landlord, in its discretion determines; and that Landlord shall not be required to (A) observe any instructions given by Tenant about such reletting; (B) lease the Premises prior to other space owned, controlled or managed by Landlord or its Affiliates; or (C) lease the Premises at below market rates.

(4) Any rent received by Landlord from re-letting the Premises (to the extent paid in respect of the period until the scheduled expiration of the Term had this Lease not been terminated) shall be deemed to reduce Tenant’s indebtedness to Landlord as follows: (A) First, to reduce Tenant’s obligation to reimburse Landlord for Repossession Expenses, then (B) to reduce Tenant’s obligation to reimburse Landlord for Reletting Expenses, then (C) to reduce Tenant’s obligation to Landlord for Enforcement Costs, then (D) to reduce Tenant’s obligation for the payment of Rent reserved in this Lease. In no event shall Tenant be entitled to a reduction (of its indebtedness to Landlord) in an amount in excess of the aggregate sum of Rent which would have been payable by Tenant for the remainder of the stated Term of the Lease, if no Default had occurred.

(5) As it becomes due, and without notice or demand, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the Rent which would have been payable by Tenant for the remainder of the stated Term of the Lease, less any applicable reductions pursuant to Section 15.3(a)(4).

(6) Tenant shall, upon demand, reimburse Landlord, with interest at the Default Rate from the date incurred through the date of payment to Landlord, the following: Repossession Expenses; Reletting Expenses; and Enforcement Costs incurred in successfully enforcing Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.

(b) If Landlord terminates this Lease pursuant to Section 15.2(a):

(1) Landlord shall be entitled to recover any and all Rent due and unpaid as of the date of termination of this Lease by Landlord.

(2) Landlord shall be entitled to recover, and Tenant shall be obligated to pay Landlord upon demand, not as a penalty but as consideration for the loss of Landlord’s bargain, a sum equal to Landlord’s Damages.

(3) Tenant shall, upon demand, reimburse Landlord, with interest at the Default Rate from the date such are incurred through the date of payment to Landlord, the following: Repossession Expenses, Reletting Expenses, and Enforcement Costs.

(b) “Fair Market Rent” means an amount equal to the fair market rental value of the Premises for the remainder of the stated Term of this Lease, taking into consideration the Reletting Expenses Landlord may incur upon any reletting of the Premises.

(c) “Landlord’s Damages” means an amount equal to the present value of the amount by which the Remainder Rent exceeds the Fair Market Rent for the remainder of the stated Term of this Lease. The present value shall be computed on the basis of a discount rate equal to the then-current yield on United States Treasury obligations having a maturity approximately equal to the residue of the stated Term of the Lease (had there been no Default), as determined by Landlord.

(d) “Reasonable attorneys’ fees” means, as applicable, the value of services provided by counsel employed by Landlord or Tenant or its Affiliates in the amount that Landlord or Tenant would have reasonably incurred if the services had been performed by unaffiliated counsel.

(e) “Remainder Rent” means an amount equal to the aggregate Rent reserved in this Lease for the remainder of the stated Term which would have been payable after the termination date had this Lease not been terminated, including, without limitation, all Rent plus all increases pursuant to the terms of this Lease.

(g) “Repossession Expenses” means such costs and expenses, excluding Enforcement Costs, incurred by Landlord to recover possession of the Premises.

15.5. Interest. If either Landlord or Tenant at any time fails to pay to the other any amounts owed under this Lease as and when such amounts are due and payable in accordance with the provisions of this Lease, the other party (i.e., the non-defaulting party) may recover interest on such amounts at the rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 2% per annum, but in no event in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted by law (“Default Rate”), from the date each such amount was due and payable in accordance with the provisions of this Lease until

 

- 57 -


the date such amount is paid. No interest shall be payable by Tenant in respect of any amount that Tenant has paid to Landlord if such interest is not billed to Tenant by Landlord within 365 days after such interest accrues.

15.6. Waivers.

(a) If Tenant is in Default, Tenant expressly waives the service of any demand for the payment of Rent and the service of any and every form of demand and notice prescribed by any statute or other law, and agrees that the occurrence of a Default pursuant to Section 15.2 shall constitute a forcible detainer by Tenant of the Premises within the meaning of the statutes of the State of Illinois.

(b) Tenant expressly waives the right to trial by jury in any legal proceedings Landlord may institute against Tenant (1) to recover possession of the Premises, and (2) to collect delinquent rent, whether or not the proceedings to collect delinquent rent are joined with proceedings to recover possession of the Premises.

(c) No waiver by Landlord of any Default of Tenant shall be implied to affect, and no express waiver shall affect, any Default other than the Default specified in such waiver and then only for the time and to the extent stated.

(d) Tenant, on its own behalf and on behalf of all persons claiming through or under Tenant, including all creditors, hereby waives all rights which Tenant and all such persons might otherwise have under any applicable laws (1) to the service of any notice of intention to re-enter or to institute legal proceedings, (2) to redeem, or to re-enter or repossess the Premises, or (3) to restore the operation of this Lease, after (A) Tenant shall have been dispossessed by judgment or by warrant of any court or judge or (B) any expiration or early termination of the term of this Lease, whether such dispossession, expiration, or termination shall be by operation of law or pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. The words “re-enter,” “re-entry”, and “re- entered” as used in this Lease shall not be deemed to be restricted to their technical legal meanings.

15.7. Force Majeure. “Force Majeure” means any cause or event beyond Landlord’s or Tenant’s (as applicable) reasonable control, including any act of God, government act or restriction, labor disturbance, general shortage of materials or supplies, riot, insurrection, or act of war or terrorism; provided, that in no event shall lack or unavailability of funds be a Force Majeure cause or event. Force Majeure shall include any Asbestos Delay. “Asbestos Delay” means any delay arising by reason of any asbestos abatement or remediation required by applicable laws. When used in this Lease in the context of permitting the delay or deferral of the satisfaction or performance of an obligation, unless a time period for delay or deferral (such as in Section 21(f)), is expressly provided for, Force Majeure excuses a party from performing such obligation for a commercially reasonable time.

15.8. Landlord’s Self Help Right. If Tenant defaults in the performance of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord, without waiving such default, may perform such obligations at Tenant’s expense: (a) immediately, and without notice, in the case of emergency or if the default (1) materially interferes with the use by any other tenant of the Building or the

 

- 58 -


Project, (2) results in a violation of any law, or (3) results or will result in a cancellation of any insurance policy maintained by Landlord, and (b) in any other case if such default continues after the expiration of the applicable notice and cure period provided under this Lease.

15.9. Tenant’s Limited Self Help Right.

(1) Provided Chicago Mercantile Exchange Inc. or its Permitted Transferee (collectively, “CME”) leases no less than 200,000 RSF in the Building (the “Exterior Building Signage Threshold”), CME shall have the exclusive right to install and maintain exterior signage on the east and west facades of the 20 South Wacker Building (the “Exterior Building Signage”) and, so long as CME leases space equal to or in excess of the Exterior Building Signage Threshold, no other signage (other than Ground Floor Retail Signage and/or the Building addresses) will be allowed on (i) the east or west facades of the 10 South Wacker Building, the 20 South Wacker Building or the 30 South Wacker Building, (ii) the north or south facade of the 10 South Wacker Building or the 30 South Wacker Building, except as provided in Section 16.4(a)(3), or (iii) any roof of the Building, except as provided in Section 16.4(a)(3). The size of the Exterior Building Signage shall be consistent with the size of the signage that exists as of the Execution Date in the granite facade, i.e., Chicago Mercantile Exchange Center. For purposes hereof, “Ground Floor Retail Signage” shall mean signs installed and/or maintained by the tenants of the exterior-facing ground floor retail spaces on the east and west sides of the Building, which signage is located within such spaces or on a Building-standard retail signband located on or immediately above any exterior window of such spaces. The Ground Floor Retail Signage shall be of a size and appearance consistent with the Ground Floor Retail Signage existing as of the Execution Date.

(2) So long as CME leases space equal to or in excess of the Exterior Building Signage Threshold, CME shall have the right, in addition to the Exterior Building Signage, to place its logo on the east and west facades of the 20 South Wacker Building, subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval as to size, color, materials, installation and location. So long as CME leases space equal to or in excess of the Exterior Building Signage Threshold, no other tenant signage shall be permitted on the east or west facades of the 10 South Wacker Building, the 20 South Wacker Building or the 30 South Wacker Building (other than Ground Floor Retail Signage).

(3) Landlord shall have the right to place one third-party tenant exterior sign on the top of either the north or south facade of either, but not both of, the 10 South Wacker Building or the 30 South Wacker Building (the “Third-Party Exterior Building Signage”), provided that (i) such third-party tenant leases square footage in the Building of not less than the aggregate amount of RSF and USF of the Premises at the time Landlord grants such right to install the Third-Party Exterior Building Signage, (ii) the lettering for such Third-Party Exterior Building Signage shall in no event exceed ten feet in height, and (iii) in the event Third-Party Exterior Building Signage is granted to a third party as aforesaid, and so long as CME leases space equal to or in excess of the Exterior Building Signage Threshold, CME shall have the right (in addition to CME’s other signage rights described in this Section 16.4) to exterior signage of comparable size to the Third-Party Exterior Building Signage on the top of the east or west facade of either, but not both, of the 10 South Wacker Building or the 30 South Wacker Building (the “Additional Exterior Building Signage”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not grant said Third-Party Exterior Building Signage right to (x) any third-party tenant that is a clearing entity that derives a material portion of its income from the clearing business relating to securities, futures, options, derivatives, or commodities, or (y) a so-called securities, futures, options, derivatives, or commodities exchange (any such entity, a “Prohibited Signage Entity”).

(4) So long as CME leases space equal to or in excess of the Exterior Building Signage Threshold, CME shall have the right to illuminate Exterior Building Signage in a manner acceptable to Landlord, in compliance with applicable laws, and consistent with the standards of similar first class office buildings in downtown Chicago. To the extent Landlord illuminates any of Landlord’s signage, or permits the Third-Party Exterior Building Signage to be illuminated, CME shall also have the right to illuminate the Additional Exterior Building Signage in the same manner as those of Landlord’s signage or any such Third-Party Exterior Building Signage, as the case may be.

(5) CME shall have the right to install signage (or relocate the currently existing Visitor’s Center signage) for the Visitor’s Center and the group entrance (collectively, the “Visitor’s Center Signage”) along the exterior of the 20 South Wacker Building as shown on Exhibit Q, but otherwise subject to Landlord’s approval as to size, color, materials and installation, which approval shall be reasonable so long as such Visitor’s Center Signage is consistent with the signage for the Visitor’s Center that exists on the Execution Date.

(6) Any of CME’s signage described in this Section 16.4(a) (including, without limitation, the Exterior Building Signage, the Visitor’s Center Signage, and the Additional Exterior Building Signage) shall be installed, repaired and maintained in good condition and in a first class manner, all by CME at CME’s sole cost and expense.

(b) Exterior Monument Signage.

(1) Landlord shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to remove or replace the exterior monument signage existing as of the Execution Date at the 10 South Wacker

 

- 64 -


Building and/or the 30 South Wacker Building. Any such replacement exterior monument signage shall be located in any of the locations specified on Exhibit R. If Landlord does not elect to remove such exterior monument signage, then Landlord shall use good faith efforts to enforce its rights under that certain lease between Landlord and JP Morgan Chase Bank, to the extent they exist, to cause said tenant’s exterior monument signage to conform substantially with the provisions of said lease or otherwise, at Landlord discretion, with Landlord’s signage criteria for the Project.

(2) If Landlord exercises Landlord’s right to replace any of the monument signage pursuant to Section 16.4(b)(1), then Landlord shall have the right to provide signage at the 10 South Wacker Building and/or the 30 South Wacker Building on such replacement monument signage to any tenant in the Building, subject to the following:

(A) So long as CME leases space equal to or in excess of the Exterior Building Signage Threshold, such tenant on such replacement monument signage is not a Prohibited Signage Entity;

(B) So long as CME leases space equal to or in excess of the Exterior Building Signage Threshold, each such replacement monument signage will either (i) incorporate “Chicago Mercantile Exchange Center” as a Building name or (ii) CME’s signage and logo will be displayed in a fashion similar to that of the other tenant signage on such monument; and

(C) So long as CME leases space equal to or in excess of the Exterior Building Signage Threshold, the size, color and materials for each such replacement monument signage shall be subject to the reasonable approval of both Landlord and CME.

(3) Landlord shall have the right to install exterior retail directory monument signage in front of the 10 South Wacker Building and/or the 30 South Wacker Building for the sole purpose of providing retail tenants of the Building with exterior monument signage, which exterior retail monument signage shall in no event display the names of CME or any office tenants of the Building (unless such office tenant also leases retail premises in the Building). Any such retail directory monument signage shall be located within the area shown hatched on Exhibit R. Further, so long as CME leases space equal to or in excess of the Exterior Building Signage Threshold, the size, color and materials for each such exterior retail directory monument signage shall be subject to the reasonable approval of both Landlord and CME.

(c) Interior Building Signage.

(1) CME shall have the right to place signage in elevator bank(s) serving the Premises, subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval as to size, color, materials, installation and location.

(2) So long as the Premises includes the entire Secured Access Space, CME shall have the right to retain Tenant’s “data walls” in the Secured Access Space, and CME shall have the right to update and increase such data walls from time to time, subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval as to size, color, materials, installation and location of such data walls.

 

- 65 -


(3) CME may install additional interior signage in the Secured Access Space visible from Wacker Drive (collectively, the “Secured Access Space Interior Signage”), subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval as to size, color, materials, installation and location of such signage. Such Secured Access Space Interior Signage, to the extent that it constitutes seasonal, temporary, quarterly, or the like “brand marketing or awareness” signs, may be vinyl appliqués. CME shall, at its sole cost and expense, install, repair and maintain the Secured Access Space Interior Signage in a first class manner. Landlord may remove, at CME’s sole cost and expense, the Secured Access Space Interior Signage upon notice and a reasonable cure period (in no event less than 10 business days) in the event CME fails to properly repair and maintain the Secured Access Space Interior Signage as aforesaid.

(4) So long as CME is leasing the Secured Access Space, CME may install and maintain a sign displaying CME’s name on the retail concourse sign band, subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval as to size, color, materials, installation and location of such signage. CME shall, at its sole cost and expense, install, repair and maintain its sign on such retail concourse sign band in a first class manner.

(d) Building Name. In the event another tenant in the Building leases more square footage (RSF and USF) in aggregate than Tenant, the Building occupied by such tenant may be designated and known in printed materials or advertising (but not identified by any exterior physical signage setting forth such building name) by any name Landlord may choose incorporating such tenant’s name and such designated name may be changed from time to time in Landlord’s discretion, subject to the provisions of this Section 16.4(d). Nothing in this Section 16.4(d) shall be construed to permit such Building name to be placed on any Building signage, except as expressly set forth in this Section 16.4.

16.5. Entire Agreement. This Lease is deemed integrated and contains all of Landlord’s and Tenant’s representations, waivers and obligations. Landlord and Tenant may only modify or amend this Lease in a writing that is fully executed and delivered by both of Landlord and Tenant.

16.6. Successors. Unless provided to the contrary elsewhere in this Lease, this Lease binds and inures to the benefit of Landlord, Tenant, and their respective successors and permitted assignees.

16.7. No Waiver. Landlord’s or Tenant’s waiver of a breach of this Lease shall not be considered a waiver by such party of any other breach. No custom or practice that develops between Landlord and Tenant shall prevent either Landlord or Tenant from requiring strict performance of the terms of this Lease. No Lease provision or act of Landlord or Tenant shall create any relationship between Landlord and Tenant other than that of landlord and tenant.

16.8. Independent Covenants. Except as specifically set forth herein, the covenants of this Lease are independent. A court’s declaration that any covenant of this Lease is invalid, void or illegal shall not impair or invalidate the remaining covenants of this Lease, which shall remain in full force and effect.

16.10. Authority.

(a) Tenant represents and warrants that the individual signing this Lease on Tenant’s behalf is authorized to bind Tenant to this Lease, and that Tenant is qualified to do business in the State of Illinois.

16.12. Memorandum of Lease. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Lease without the other party’s written consent and any such recording by Tenant without such written consent shall be a Default. Landlord and Tenant shall execute a short form memorandum of lease and a release thereof in the form of Exhibit J and Tenant may record such short form memorandum of lease in the Cook County Illinois Register of Deeds office. Landlord may record such release upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

16.13. Press Releases and Public Statements. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall, without the other’s consent, issue or release any public notice, statement and/or press release concerning this Lease (including regarding Landlord’s and Tenant’s negotiation and execution of this Lease or the individuals involved in the negotiation and execution of this Lease), except as necessary in order to satisfy any legal requirements, including any SEC requirements.

16.14. Limitation of Landlord’s Liability. The obligations of Landlord under this Lease shall not be binding upon Landlord named herein after the sale, conveyance, assignment or transfer by such Landlord (or upon any subsequent landlord after the sale, conveyance, assignment or transfer by such subsequent landlord) of its interest in the Project, the Building or the Land, as the case may be, and in the event of any such sale, conveyance, assignment or transfer, Landlord shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder (but the foregoing shall not be construed as a waiver or

 

- 67 -


release by Tenant of any liability of Landlord for any failure to observe or perform such covenants and obligations required to be observed or performed prior to the date of such sale, conveyance, assignment or transfer), and the transferee of Landlord’s interest in the Project, the Building or the Land, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have assumed all obligations under this Lease. Landlord shall notify Tenant simultaneously with or promptly following any transfer of Landlord’s interest in the Project, the Building or the Land, as the case may be. The liability of Landlord for Landlord’s obligations under this Lease shall be limited to Landlord’s interest in the Project, and Tenant shall not look to any other property or assets of Landlord or its affiliates in seeking either to enforce Landlord’s obligations under this Lease or to satisfy a judgment for Landlord’s failure to perform such obligations.

16.15. Time. Time is of the essence as to all provisions in this Lease in which time is a factor.

16.16. Quiet Enjoyment. So long as Tenant is not in default of this Lease and except as provided in this Lease, Landlord and its agents shall not interfere with Tenant’s peaceful and quiet enjoyment of the Premises during the Term.

16.17. Right to Enter Premises. Subject to the other provisions of this Lease (including those restricting Landlord’s access to the Secured Areas), Landlord, and Landlord’s employees, agents, and contractors may enter the Premises (a) at any reasonable time without prior notice to perform regularly scheduled duties under this Lease, including without limitation cleaning, adjustment of Mechanical Systems and inspection of electrical closets, (b) at any reasonable time upon giving to Tenant reasonable prior notice (which may be oral to Tenant’s facility personnel) to inspect the Premises, to otherwise perform Landlord’s duties under this Lease, or to exercise Landlord’s rights under Section 8.2, (c) at any reasonable time upon giving to Tenant reasonable prior notice and accompanied by Tenant’s representative (if Tenant shall have made such representative available for such purpose), to enter LAN rooms or telecommunications closets located in the Premises to perform repairs, maintenance or modifications, (d) during Business Hours upon giving to Tenant reasonable prior notice to show the Premises to prospective lenders and purchasers, and (e) during Business Hours upon giving to Tenant reasonable prior notice during the last 24 months of the Term to show the Premises to prospective tenants. In connection with any permitted entry to perform Landlord’s duties or exercise Landlord’s rights under Section 8.2, Landlord may erect and use structures reasonably required by the nature of the work (including scaffolding, pipes and conduits); provided, that the same do not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises any more than is necessary considering the type and duration of the work, and are maintained in a safe and secure manner, and may open or penetrate the Base Building or any Leasehold Improvements. If any Leasehold Improvements are damaged by Landlord as a result of Landlord exercising its rights under this section, then Landlord shall repair or replace the damaged portion only such that such repaired portion matches the original as nearly as is commercially reasonable. Landlord, Landlord’s agents and utility service providers servicing the Project may erect, use and maintain concealed ducts, pipes and conduits in and through the Premises; provided, that such use does not cause the usable area of the Premises to be reduced and such use does not interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises in any material respect. Landlord shall promptly repair any damage to the Premises caused by any work performed pursuant to this Section 16.17.

 

- 68 -


16.18. Material Non-monetary Default. For the purposes of this Lease, “Material Non-monetary Default” shall mean a Default by Tenant in Tenant’s performance of the terms and/or conditions of this Lease that causes or results in (a) a dangerous condition in the Premises or the Building, (b) any insurance coverage required to be carried under this Lease by Landlord or Tenant with respect to the Premises or Building being jeopardized (as evidenced by a written notice given to Landlord from Landlord’s or Tenant’s insurance carrier), including failure to provide same, (c) an unreasonable disturbance to another tenant, (d) a material failure by Tenant to comply with Laws with respect to the Premises or use thereof; or (e) a material and adverse affect on the operation of Mechanical Systems.

16.19. Intentionally Omitted.

16.20. Exhibits. The exhibits attached to this Lease are incorporated herein. If any exhibit is inconsistent with the terms of this Lease, the provisions of the exhibit shall govern.

16.21. No Counterclaims or Consolidation. If Landlord commences any summary proceeding against Tenant, Tenant shall not interpose any counterclaim of any nature or description in any such proceeding (unless failure to interpose such counterclaim would preclude Tenant from asserting in a separate action the claim which is the subject of such counterclaim), and shall not seek to consolidate such proceeding with any other action which may have been or will be brought in any other court by Tenant.

16.22. REIT Provisions. Tenant recognizes and acknowledges that Landlord and/or certain beneficial owners of Landlord may from time-to-time qualify as real estate investment trusts pursuant to Sections 856 et seq. of the Code and that avoiding (a) the loss of such status, (b) the receipt of any income derived under any provision of this Lease that does not constitute “rents from real property” (in the case of real estate investment trusts), and (c) the imposition of income, penalty, or similar taxes (each an “Adverse Event”) is of material concern to Landlord and such beneficial owners. If this Lease or any document contemplated hereby could, in the opinion of counsel to Landlord, result in, or cause, an Adverse Event, Tenant agrees to cooperate with Landlord in negotiating an amendment or modification of this Lease, or such document, and shall, at the request of Landlord, execute and deliver such documents reasonably required to effect such amendment or modification. Any amendment or modification pursuant to this Section 16.22 shall be made at Landlord’s expense and shall be structured so that the economic results to Tenant shall be equal to or better than the economic results to Tenant pursuant to this Lease without regard to such amendment or modification. Without limiting any of Landlord’s other rights under this Section 16.22, Landlord may waive the receipt of any amount payable to Landlord hereunder and such waiver shall constitute an amendment or modification of this Lease with respect to such payment. Tenant expressly covenants and agrees not to enter into any sublease or assignment which provides for rental or other payment for such use, occupancy, or utilization based in whole, or in part, on the net income or profits derived by any person from the property leased, used, occupied, or utilized (other than an amount based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales), and that any such purported sublease or assignment shall be absolutely void and ineffective as a conveyance of any right, or interest, in the possession, use, occupancy, or utilization of any portion of the Premises.

16.23. Bathroom Ventilation. Promptly following the Execution Date, Landlord shall rebalance and otherwise adjust to optimize the ventilation system in the bathrooms in the Building serviced by the low-rise elevators.

 

17. OPTION TO EXTEND THE TERM

17.1. Provided that no Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of Tenant’s exercise of this option, Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term of this Lease and the Term of the Storage Space Agreement (the “Extension Option”) for 2 consecutive periods only (“1st Extension Term” and “2nd Extension Term”, respectively, and each, an “Extension Term”) upon all of the following conditions:

(a) The 1st Extension Term shall be for a period of 7 years. The 2nd Extension Term shall be for a period of 10 years.

(b) Tenant shall exercise the Extension Option by giving to Landlord written notice no later than 5:00 p.m. on the date that is 18 months prior to the then scheduled Expiration Date of the Term, but no earlier than 30 months prior to the then scheduled Expiration Date of the Term; and

(c) On or before the date that is 17 months prior to the then scheduled Expiration Date of the Term, or if earlier, 30 days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice pursuant to Section 17.1(b) (the “Determination Date”). Landlord shall compute the Market Rent (as defined below) and give to Tenant notice of the resulting amount.

(d) Tenant shall elect, by giving to Landlord written notice within 30 days after the Determination Date, to either accept or reject Landlord’s determination of the Market Rent. If Tenant does not accept Landlord’s determination of Market Rent then Tenant’s notice shall set forth Tenant’s determination of the Market Rent. If Tenant fails to give a notice rejecting Landlord’s determination within such 30 day period, or if Tenant gives such notice but fails to set forth Tenant’s determination of Market Rent, then Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted Landlord’s determination of Market Rent. If Tenant timely rejects Landlord’s determination, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate the determination of Market Rent in good faith. If Landlord and Tenant fail to agree upon Market Rent within 45 days after the Determination Date, then Tenant shall elect, by giving to Landlord written notice within 60 days after the Determination Date, either (1) to elect to enter baseball arbitration as set forth below, or (2) to revoke Tenant’s election to exercise the Extension Option, in which case Tenant shall have no further rights to extend the Term. Failure by Tenant on or before the 60th day following the Determination Date to elect in writing to enter baseball arbitration shall be deemed to be a revocation of Tenant’s exercise of the Extension Option.

(e) If Tenant timely elects to enter baseball arbitration pursuant to Section 17.1(d) above, then within 30 days after the date upon which Tenant gives to Landlord notice electing arbitration, Landlord and Tenant each shall (1) give written notice to the other setting forth their respective determination of the Market Rent (each a “Determination Notice”) and (2) shall, subject to Section 17.1(g) below, appoint a fit and impartial person as arbitrator who shall be a real estate broker who shall have at least 15 years continuous experience in the

 

- 70 -


business of brokering office leases and is knowledgeable in office rental rates and lease transactions in the Comparable Market (a “Qualified Arbitrator”). Each appointment of a Qualified Arbitrator by either Landlord or Tenant shall be memorialized in writing by the appointing party to the other party under this Lease. If either Landlord or Tenant shall fail to appoint an arbitrator within a period of 10 days after the other gives to such party written notice to make such appointment, then the American Arbitration Association shall appoint a second Qualified Arbitrator. The Qualified Arbitrators so appointed shall appoint a third Qualified Arbitrator within 10 days after the second Qualified Arbitrator is appointed. If such Qualified Arbitrators fail to agree upon a third Qualified Arbitrator, such third Qualified Arbitrator shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association, or its successor, from its panel of arbitrators.

(f) The Qualified Arbitrators shall proceed with all reasonable dispatch to determine the question submitted; provided, that in determining the Market Rent the Qualified Arbitrators shall select either the Market Rent set forth in Landlord’s Determination Notice or the Market Rent set forth in Tenant’s Determination Notice, and in no event shall the Qualified Arbitrators have the right (1) to average the Market Rent determinations submitted by Landlord or Tenant or (2) to choose another number. The decision of the Qualified Arbitrators shall in any event be rendered within 30 days after the appointment of the third Qualified Arbitrator, or within such other period as the Qualified Arbitrators shall order or to which Landlord and Tenant shall agree, and such decision shall be in writing and in duplicate, one counterpart thereof to be delivered to each of Landlord and Tenant. The Qualified Arbitrators shall conduct such hearings as they deem appropriate. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (or its successor) and applicable Illinois law, and the decision of a majority of the Qualified Arbitrators shall be binding, final and conclusive on the parties, and judgment upon such decision may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

(g) If the determination of the Market Rent set forth in the Landlord’s Determination Notice and the Tenant’s Determination Notice shall differ by less than 5% of Landlord’s proposed determination per RSF (as to Office Space), and per USF as to the Secured Access Space, the Fixed Term Support Space, and the Non-Fixed Term Storage Space (as applicable), in each case per annum for each year during the applicable Extension Term, then the Market Rent shall not be determined by arbitration, but shall instead be equal to the average of the determinations set forth in the Landlord’s Determination Notice and the Tenant’s Determination Notice. Only if the determinations set forth in the Landlord’s Determination Notice and the Tenant’s Determination Notice as set forth in the preceding sentence differ by more than 5% per rentable or useable square foot per annum (as applicable) for any year during the applicable Extension Term shall the determination of the Market Rent be by arbitration as set forth in Section 17.1(f).

(h) If Market Rent is determined by arbitration pursuant to Section 17.1(f), then the party whose determination was not chosen by the Qualified Arbitrators shall bear the costs of the fees of the Qualified Arbitrators, counsel engaged by both parties (but only to the extent of the other party’s reasonable counsel fees), and expert and other witnesses called by either party.

(i) If for any reason the Market Rent shall not have been determined prior to the commencement of the Extension Term, then, until the Market Rent and, accordingly, the

 

- 71 -


Base Rent, shall have been finally determined, the Base Rent shall be the average of the Market Rents set forth in the Landlord’s Determination Notice and the Tenant’s Determination Notice. Upon the final determination of the Market Rent, an appropriate adjustment to the Base Rent shall be made reflecting such final determination, and Tenant, in the case of an underpayment, shall pay to Landlord within 30 days of such final determination the amount of such underpayment, or Landlord, in the case of an overpayment, shall credit the amount of such overpayment against Base Rent next due.

(j) “Market Rent” for each of the 1st Extension Term and the 2nd Extension Term means the market annual base rental rate for the Premises, net of Additional Rent as to the Office Space, based on tenancies for a term comparable to the time period in question covering office space of comparable size and quality to the Premises in the Building and in comparable buildings in comparable locations in the downtown Chicago, Illinois market (including the Building, the “Comparable Market”), taking into account all pertinent factors including but not limited to size, location, and all applicable market escalations, rental and other concessions, Tenant’s creditwofthiness, arid the involvement of non-involvement of a broker and assuming Landlord and Tenant to be prudent persons willing to lease but being under no compulsion to do so. By the above reference to the absence of a compulsion to enter into a renewal tenancy, Landlord and Tenant do not intend to exclude from consideration as comparables renewal tenancies whether by exercise of an option, negotiation or otherwise. Notwithstanding what is set forth herein, while any determination of the Market Rent may take into consideration customary landlord concessions, the Qualified Arbitrator may not require Landlord to grant any affirmative concessions or payment of funds without Landlord’s consent in its sole discretion, and shall only adjust the Market Rent to reflect such concessions or payments. Market Rent shall be calculated on a gross basis per USF with respect to any applicable Secured Access Space, Fixed Term Support Space, and Non-Fixed Term Storage Space.

(k) If Tenant fails timely to exercise the 1st Extension Option, then both of the 1st Extension Option and the 2nd Extension Option shall be null and void.

(l) Time is of the essence with respect to all time periods set forth in this Article 17.

17.2. This Extension Option applies only to an extension of this Lease and the Storage Space Agreement for the 1st Extension Term and the 2nd Extension Term only. Except for the above modifications, all other provisions and conditions of this Lease and the Storage Space Agreement, except this Extension Option and any Landlord’s Work or Construction Allowance, shall apply in the 1st Extension Term and the 2nd Extension Term. Upon the determination of the Market Rent, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an amendment to this Lease and the Storage Space Agreement evidencing such term extension and the Market Rent.

 

18. CONTRACTION OPTIONS

18.1. Subject to Section 18.7, Tenant shall have the right (a “Contraction Right”) to reduce the size of the Premises and return possession to Landlord of certain portions of the Premises on the terms set forth below in this Section 18.1; provided, that in each instance Tenant gives to Landlord a notice (a “Contraction Notice”) on or before May 31, 2017, which notice

 

- 72 -


shall set forth the space as to which Tenant elects to contract (the “Contraction Space”). Within 30 days after Landlord delivers to Tenant an invoice therefor, Tenant shall pay to Landlord 50% of the Unamortized Contraction Cost with respect to the applicable Contraction Space (failing which such Contraction Notice shall be null and void), and on or before November 30, 2018, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the remaining 50% of the Unamortized Contraction Cost with respect to such Contraction Space (the payments under this sentence are called the “Contraction Payment”). “Unamortized Contraction Cost” shall mean the unamortized value as of the effective date of contraction of all of Landlord’s Work, any Construction Allowance, and any other payments made to Tenant (or for the benefit of Tenant) pursuant to the Work Letter, and the cost of any brokerage commission paid by Landlord ratably allocated to the Contraction Space, in each case amortized on a straight-line basis over the initial Term of this Lease, together with interest at the rate of 7% per annum. Tenant shall, in the Contraction Notice (x) represent that as of the date thereof, Tenant has not assigned, pledged or encumbered this Lease or sublet the Contraction Space for a term extending beyond November 30, 2018, or done or suffered any other action as a result of which this Lease or the Contraction Space might be subject to any lien or encumbrance and (y) covenant that such representation shall also be true, correct and accurate on the Contraction Date.

(a) If Tenant elects Scheme F-1 pursuant to Section 2.5, then effective as of November 30, 2018, Tenant may return possession of the portion of the Premises on floors five and/or six in either or both of the 10 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building; provided, that if Tenant elects to contract as to fewer than all of such floors, Tenant must elect to contract in the following order: (1) first, the sixth floor in the 10 South Wacker Building, (2) next, the fifth floor in the 10 South Wacker Building, (3) next, the sixth floor in the 30 South Wacker Building, and (4) last, the fifth floor in the 30 South Wacker Building.

(b) If Tenant elects Scheme F-2 pursuant to Section 2.5, then effective as of November 30, 2018, Tenant may return possession of the entire seventh floor Premises, including the portions thereof in the 10 South Wacker Building, the 20 South Wacker Building, and the 30 South Wacker Building.

18.2. Tenant may exercise a Contraction Right in respect of all or any portion of the Fixed Term Support Space effective as of November 30, 2018, or, with respect to any portion of the Fixed Term Support Space located outside of an interstitial floor, on the last day of any calendar month thereafter, which election shall be made by giving to Landlord a Contraction Notice on or before May 31, 2018 with respect to any portion of the Fixed Term Support Space located on an interstitial floor or no later than 30 days prior to such exercise with respect to any portion of the Fixed Term Support Space located outside of an interstitial floor. Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any Unamortized Contraction Cost in connection with such contraction.

18.3. If Tenant timely exercises a Contraction Right and timely pays the applicable Contraction Payment, then effective as of November 30, 2018 (or such later date, if applicable, as to certain Fixed Term Support Space as provided in Section 18.2), the term of the Lease with respect to the Contraction Space shall end and expire and Tenant’s estate in and possession of the Contraction Space shall terminate and be wholly extinguished with the same force and effect as if such date was initially set forth in this Lease as the expiration date applicable thereto. On or before November 30, 2018 (or such later date, if applicable, as to certain Fixed Term Support

(b) the Base Rent and Additional Rent for the Available ROFO Area;

(c) the work allowance, free rent, or any other concessions, if any, that Landlord will provide in respect of such Available ROFO Area; and

instrument shall not affect the effectiveness of such waiver and (b) for the following 180 days Landlord shall have the right to Lease the applicable Available ROFO Area to a third party at not less than 90% on a net effective rent basis of the terms most recently offered to Tenant taking into account any concessions or allowances offered to such tenant. If Landlord shall desire to offer terms to any third party at less than 90% on a net effective rent basis of the terms offered to Tenant, then Landlord must first offer such terms to Tenant pursuant to the process set forth above. If Landlord does not lease the applicable Available ROFO Area to a third party within such 180-day period, then Landlord shall again offer the Available ROFO Area to Tenant as set forth above prior to leasing the Available ROFO Area to a third party.

21.8. If Landlord is unable to deliver to Tenant possession of any Available ROFO Area for any reason on or before the applicable ROFO Area Availability Date, the ROFO Area Commencement Date shall be the date on which Landlord is able to so deliver possession and Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant therefor and this Lease shall not in any way be impaired; provided, that (a) Landlord shall use reasonable efforts, including institution and prosecution (in Landlord’s sole discretion) of holdover or other appropriate proceedings against any occupant of such Available ROFO Area, to cause such Available ROFO Area to be delivered to Tenant as soon as possible thereafter, and (b) if Landlord fails to deliver to Tenant possession of such Available ROFO Area as required hereunder within 180 days after the applicable ROFO Area Availability Date (the “Outside Offer Date”), then Tenant shall have the right, as Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy therefor, to cancel Tenant’s exercise of the First Offer Right in question by notice (an “Option Cancellation Notice”) to Landlord given within 30 days after the Outside Offer Date, in which event (unless the ROFO Area Commencement Date has occurred before the giving of the Option Cancellation Notice) the applicable Offer Space shall not be included in this Lease and Landlord shall be free to lease the Offer Space to third parties and Landlord shall have no obligation to re-offer such Offer Space to Tenant unless and until (i) Landlord has not leased or entered into an exclusive commitment to lease, the Offer Space to a

landlord under that certain lease dated as of November 11, 1983, which lease was amended by instruments dated as of December 6, 1989 and October 7, 2004, and which lease, as so amended, is referred to as the “Existing 20 South Lease”. Tenant is by assignment and/or operation of law the successor in interest of tenant under the Existing 20 South Lease. Tenant hereby represents to Landlord that the Current Leases described in this Section 31 are accurate, true and correct and are the only agreements (with no other amendments or modifications) (other than that certain Amended and Restated Support Space Supplement dated as of October 1, 2002, between Landlord’s predecessor-in-interest and Tenant, and the agreements referenced therein (collectively, the “Amended Support Space Supplement”)) to which Tenant is a party and which are in effect prior to the Execution Date pertaining to the Initial Premises; failing which, Tenant hereby agrees, together with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange Trust, joint and severally, to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all Claims that arise in connection with a breach of the foregoing representation.

31.2. Landlord and Tenant hereby amend the Existing Lease and the Existing 20 South Lease (collectively, the “Current Leases”) to provide that, notwithstanding any provisions thereof to the contrary, (a) upon the acquisition of the Building by Landlord (at which time this Lease shall become effective and be of full force and effect and shall govern with respect to the Premises), the term of each of the Current Leases shall expire (without further right of extension), (b) except for liabilities and obligations of Landlord and Tenant thereunder arising or accruing prior to the expiration of the Current Leases which by their express terms survive the expiration of the term thereof, Landlord and Tenant shall have no further liabilities or obligations thereunder (other than the rights and obligations of parties under the Current Leases with respect to the reconciliation of Additional Rent arising or accruing prior to the expiration of the Current Leases), and (c) Tenant shall have no obligation to remove anything of any sort from the Initial Premises upon their expiration, whether constituting an alteration or leasehold improvement or otherwise, except in Delivery Condition as more particularly described in Section 4.1(b). Notwithstanding that the term of each of the Current Leases has expired upon the acquisition of the Building by Landlord (at which time this Lease shall become effective and be of full force and effect), wherever reference in this Lease is made to the provisions of the Current Leases in connection with the calculation of Base Rent, Tenant’s Share, RSF or USF or the description of the Initial Premises, such provisions of the Current Leases are hereby incorporated into this Lease by such references.

 

32. CONSTRUCTION ALLOWANCE

32.1. The entire amount of the Initial Construction Allowance shall be available upon Tenant’s written request from time to time to pay the cost of Tenant’s Work and the other permissible uses immediately upon commencement of Tenant’s Work and without regard to any phasing of Tenant’s Work or Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises. The Second Construction Allowance shall be available upon Tenant’s written request from time to time for work Tenant performs from and after December 1, 2018 and the other permissible uses immediately upon commencement of such work and without regard to the phasing thereof or Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, and Landlord and Tenant agree that such work (the “Later Tenant Work”) shall be treated in the same manner as Tenant’s Work hereunder. Any portion of the Initial Construction Allowance or the Second Construction Allowance not expended for such purposes shall be, upon Tenant’s written request given to Landlord, applied against Base Rent and Additional Rent due under this Lease (without requirement, except as set forth in Section 32.3, that any Tenant Work or Later Tenant Work be completed).

 

- 85 -


32.2. Subject to Tenant’s obligations under Section 8.3, Tenant may direct that Landlord make payments of the Construction Allowance to any vendor, contractor, or subcontractor. Landlord shall make such payments not later than 30 days after receipt by Landlord from Tenant of copies of invoices from such vendor, contractor, or subcontractor (and, where applicable, its subcontractors and suppliers), together with direction from Tenant and a certificate from Tenant (or other evidence satisfactory to Landlord) indicating that the work to which such invoices relate has been substantially completed and/or the materials to which such invoices relate have been installed in, or delivered to, the Premises. Landlord shall make such payments in the amount then due to such vendor, contractor, or subcontractor inclusive of any retainage provided for in the applicable contract. With respect to lienable items, as a condition precedent to disbursement of any such progress payment subsequent to the first such progress payment, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord original lien waivers from the applicable vendor, contractor, or subcontractor, and any applicable subcontractor or supplier thereof, indicating that the claims for mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens with respect to the labor and materials reflected in the draw request for the immediately preceding progress payment have been waived. A further condition precedent to disbursement of the last such progress payment to a vendor, contractor, or subcontractor shall be that Landlord has received from Tenant (either prior to, or simultaneously with, the issuance of such final payment) final and unconditional original lien waivers from such vendor, contractor, or subcontractor and all subcontractors, suppliers, materialmen and other parties who performed labor at, or supplied materials to, the Premises in connection with Tenant’s Work. Progress payment shall not be made at any time that a Default by Tenant exists under this Lease.

32.3. Promptly after completion of Tenant’s Work (but in all events within six months following the Substantial Completion of all of Landlord’s Work (as such 6-month period shall be extended by Force Majeure and Tenant Delay), Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of invoices and other documentation reasonably requested by Landlord to evidence Tenant’s expenditure for the hard costs of Tenant’s Work in an aggregate amount not less than $40.00 per RSF of Office Space. The provisions of this Section 32.3 shall not apply to the Later Tenant Work or the Second Construction Allowance.

32.4. The right to receive reimbursement for the cost of Tenant’s Work as set forth in this Article 32 shall be for the exclusive benefit of Tenant, it being the express intent of the parties hereto that in no event shall such right be conferred upon or for the benefit of any third party, including, without limitation, any contractor, subcontractor, materialman, laborer, architect, engineer, attorney, or any other person, firm, or entity. Without in any way limiting the provisions of the other indemnities contained in this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all liability, damages, claims, costs, or expenses arising out of or relating to Landlord’s payment of any installment of the Initial Construction Allowance or the Second Construction Allowance directly to Tenant’s general contractor or construction manager (as and to the extent such payment to Tenant’s general contractor or construction manager was directed by Tenant), together with all costs, expenses, and liabilities incurred in, or in connection with, each such claim, action, or proceeding brought thereon, including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.

 

- 86 -


32.5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 32, $300,000.00 of the Initial Construction Allowance shall be made available for the cost of the Bathroom Work only.

32.6. “Tenant’s Work” shall include Tenant’s renovation of the bathrooms on the third, fifth, and seventh floors originally built to serve the two open outcry trading floors in the 20 South Wacker Building (the “Bathroom Work”). The Bathroom Work shall be to a standard not less than the standard required by Landlord, but not less than the standard of the renovated base building bathrooms located in the 10 South Wacker Building.

 

33. LANDLORD’S WORK

33.1. Landlord, at Landlord’s expense and as Landlord’s Work, will complete in a good and workmanlike manner and according to all applicable laws all of the work that is described on Exhibit E, as applicable depending upon which Scheme Tenant elects under Section 2.5. Subject to delay due to Tenant Delay and/or Force Majeure, Landlord shall cause Landlord’s Work to be Substantially Completed on or before the scheduled dates therefor set forth in Exhibit E. Landlord shall pay for all costs associated with Landlord’s Work, except as set forth in this Lease (for example, costs arising from Tenant Delay). Landlord shall be permitted to perform Landlord’s Work during Tenant’s occupancy and use of the Premises; provided, that both Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to reasonably cooperate with each other in the coordination of such Landlord’s Work (so as not to cause a Tenant Delay or otherwise) and Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with the conduct of Tenant’s business in the Premises in connection with Landlord’s Work (subject to Tenant’s obligation to pay the incremental cost arising from such efforts); and provided further that, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 19, Tenant shall not be obligated to surrender the Swing Space to Landlord prior to the Swing Space Return Dates set forth therefor on Exhibit E. If Tenant requests that Landlord perform Landlord’s Work after-hours despite Landlord’s commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with the conduct of Tenant’s business in the Premises, then Landlord shall do so Tenant shall pay the incremental cost arising therefrom. Any delay of Landlord’s Work arising from Landlord using efforts to minimize interference with the conduct of Tenant’s business in the Premises or from Landlord performing Landlord’s Work after-hours shall be deemed to be Tenant Delay.

33.2. Upon Substantial Completion of each major portion of Landlord’s Work (a “major portion” being a portion that is listed as having a separate completion deadline on Exhibit E), Landlord’s representative and Tenant’s representative shall inspect the applicable portion of the Premises and prepare and sign a punch list identifying all items of Landlord’s Work which require correction or completion. Landlord shall, within 10 days after execution of such punch list, commence correction or completion of any items identified on such punch list and shall diligently and continuously prosecute such work to completion (subject to Force Majeure and Tenant Delay). Landlord shall not be responsible for any items or damage caused by Tenant, its agents, independent contractors, or suppliers. Except for any items identified on such punch list, and except for any latent defect in Landlord’s Work of which Tenant notifies Landlord within one year after the later of the Scheduled Commencement Date or the completion of such item of Landlord’s Work, Tenant’s continued possession of the affected portion of the Premises shall be conclusive evidence that such portion of the Premises was in good order and

 

- 87 -


satisfactory condition at the time of Landlord’s delivery of the same to Tenant. Tenant’s failure to advise Landlord in writing within said one-year period of any latent defects shall result in a waiver by Tenant of any claims regarding said defects.

33.3. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Article 33, or the provisions of Exhibit E, Landlord and Tenant shall mutually agree upon the design and materials for the exterior curtain wall (herein also sometimes referred to as “the facade”) of the 20 South Wacker Building. If 30 days after Landlord proposes such design and materials to Tenant for Tenant’s approval, Landlord and Tenant have not agreed thereon, then Landlord and Tenant agree to submit the dispute to Gerry Johnson (the original architect of the Building), and Mr. Johnson’s resolution of the dispute shall be final and binding upon both of Landlord and Tenant. If Mr. Johnson is not available or refuses to perform such arbitration, then Fujikawa Johnson & Associates (or such other architect arbiter reasonably acceptable to both Landlord and Tenant, who has at least ten (10) years’ experience in first-class office space in Chicago) to perform such service (or if Landlord and Tenant cannot so agree, then each of Landlord and Tenant shall appoint such an architect and such two appointed architects shall mutually appoint a third architect (having such experience) who shall, individually, resolve the dispute). Each party shall pay 50% of Mr. Johnson’s (or such other architect’s or architects’) fees and expenses for such services. Landlord and Tenant agree to be reasonable and cooperate with each other in this process.

33.4. As and when Tenant turns over a floor (or a portion thereof, if Landlord agrees to accept such partial floor) of the Premises so that Landlord may commence its Landlord’s Work hereunder, Tenant shall have no further liability or responsibility with respect to the space turned over to Landlord (other than (a) the payment of Base Rent and Additional Rent under Section 4.2 hereunder with respect to such space, as applicable, (b) Tenant’s obligation to deliver such space in Delivery Condition, as applicable, (c) Tenant’s obligation to continue to insure the space in question, but only if Landlord delivers such space back to Tenant as contemplated under this Lease, and (d) any other liabilities which have accrued through the date of such turn over to Landlord) unless and until Landlord delivers such space back to Tenant as and to the extent contemplated under this Lease (damages caused by Tenant, its employees, agents or contractors, excepted). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant shall have no maintenance or repair or replacement obligations with respect to such space; provided, Tenant shall remain liable under (and subject to) the terms of this Lease as to damages thereto caused by Tenant, its employees, agents or contractors, as well as with respect to any obligations which expressly survive hereunder.

33.5. Landlord shall cause the contractors (and to the extent practicable, the subcontractors) performing Landlord’s Work (i) to include Tenant as an additional insured (on a primary and non-contributing basis) on such contractor’s and subcontractor’s general and auto liability policies, which policies shall include an endorsement waiving the insurer’s rights of subrogation against Tenant, (ii) to provided Landlord with evidence of workers’ compensation insurance in at least the amounts required by applicable law, which policy shall include an endorsement waiving the insurer’s rights of subrogation against Tenant, and (iii) to carry builder’s risk insurance on an all risk basis and on a completed value form covering the interests of Landlord and Tenant in all Landlord’s Work being performed by such contractor (or subcontractor, if applicable), as well as materials and equipment on-hand and in transit. Upon

 

- 88 -


request from Tenant, Landlord will provide Tenant with copies of such certificates of insurance as Landlord has received (or Landlord has the right to request of such contractors (or subcontractor, if applicable)) evidencing the foregoing insurance coverages.

 

34. RENT CREDIT

34.1. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of all Base Rent and Additional Rent due under Section 4 (net of any other abatements, credits or offsets against any such Base Rent and Additional Rent to which Tenant shall be entitled under any other provision of this Lease) commencing on September 1, 2007 until such time the aggregate amount of such abatement equals $4,600,000.00; provided that if Tenant elects Scheme F-2 pursuant to Section 2.5, then Tenant shall be entitled to an additional abatement of all Base Rent and Additional Rent due under Section 4 (net of any other abatements, credits or offsets against any such Base Rent and Additional Rent to which Tenant shall be entitled under any other provision of this Lease) in the aggregate amount of $1,333,048.00, commencing with the first Rent due and payable under this Lease following Tenant’s election of Scheme F-2.

THIS SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made as of August 24, 2007 by and between BEAR STEARNS COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE, INC., a New York corporation, having an address at 383 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10179 (“Lender”) and CHICAGO MERCANTILE EXCHANGE INC., a Delaware corporation, having an address at 20 South Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606 (“Tenant”).

RECITALS:

A. Tenant is the holder of a leasehold estate in a portion of the property known as and located at 10, 20, and 30 South Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois, as more particularly described on Schedule A (the “Property”) under and pursuant to the provisions of that certain Office Lease, dated as of the date hereof (the “Office Lease”), between 10 – 30 South Wacker, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, as landlord (“Landlord”), and Tenant, as tenant, and under and pursuant to the provisions of that certain Storage Space Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Storage Lease”, and together with the Office Lease, collectively, the “Lease”), by and between Landlord, as landlord, and Tenant, as tenant;

B. The Property is or is to be encumbered by one or more mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds to secure debt or similar security agreements (collectively, the “Security Instrument”) from Landlord, or its successor in interest, in favor of Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as nominee of Lender; and

C. Tenant has agreed to subordinate the Lease to the Security Instrument and to the lien thereof and Lender has agreed to grant non-disturbance to Tenant under the Lease on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

AGREEMENT:

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto mutually agree as follows:

1. Subordination. The Lease shall be subject and subordinate in all respects to the lien and terms of the Security Instrument, to any and all advances to be made thereunder and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof.

2. Nondisturbance. So long as Tenant pays all rents and other charges as specified in the Lease and is not otherwise in default (beyond applicable notice and cure periods) of any of its obligations and covenants pursuant to the Lease, Lender agrees for itself and its successors in interest and for any other person acquiring title to the Property through a foreclosure (an “Acquiring Party”), that Tenant’s possession of the premises as described in the Lease will not be disturbed during the term of the Lease, as said term may be extended pursuant to the terms of the Lease or as said premises may be expanded as specified in the Lease, by reason of a foreclosure. For purposes of this agreement, a “foreclosure” shall include (but not be limited to) a foreclosure of the Security Instrument pursuant to Illinois law, a sheriffs or trustee’s sale under the power of sale contained in the Security Instrument, the termination of any superior lease of the Property and any other transfer of the Landlord’s interest in the Property under peril of foreclosure, including, without limitation to the generality of the foregoing, an assignment or sale in lieu of foreclosure.

3. Attornment. Tenant agrees to attorn to, accept and recognize any Acquiring Party as the landlord under the Lease pursuant to the provisions expressly set forth therein for the then remaining


balance of the term of the Lease, and any extensions thereof as made pursuant to the Lease. The foregoing provision shall be self-operative and shall not require the execution of any further instrument or agreement by Tenant as a condition to its effectiveness. Tenant agrees, however, to execute and deliver, at any time and from time to time, upon the request of the Lender or any Acquiring Party any reasonable instrument which may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such attornment, such instrument to be consistent with this Agreement and reasonably acceptable to Tenant.

4. No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Lease, it is specifically understood and agreed that neither the Lender, any receiver nor any Acquiring Party shall be:

(a) liable for any act, omission, negligence or default of any prior landlord (other than to cure defaults of a continuing nature with respect to the maintenance, restoration, or repair of the demised premises or the Property); provided, however, that any Acquiring Party shall be liable and responsible for the performance of all covenants and obligations of landlord under the Lease accruing from and after the date that it takes title to the Property; or

(b) except as set forth in (a), above, liable for any failure of any prior landlord to construct any improvements; or

(c) subject to any offsets, credits, claims or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord; or

(d) bound by any rent or additional rent which is payable on a monthly basis and which Tenant might have paid for more than one (1) month in advance to any prior landlord; or

(e) be liable to Tenant hereunder or under the terms of the Lease beyond its interest in the Property; or

(f) liable or responsible for or with respect to the retention, application and or/return to the Tenant of any security deposit paid to Borrower or any prior Landlord, unless and until Lender or such Acquiring Party has actually received for its own account as landlord the full amount of such security deposit.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary (i) Tenant reserves its rights to any and all claims or causes of action against such prior landlord for prior losses or damages and against the successor landlord for all losses or damages arising from and after the date that such successor landlord takes title to the Property, and (ii) nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of, and Tenant shall in all events be entitled to exercise, Tenant’s rights of self-help and of setoff against Rent as provided in the Lease, regardless of when the Landlord default giving rise to Tenant’s rights of self-help and/or setoff may have occurred (including, without limitation, any failure by Landlord to timely Substantially Complete Landlord’s Work (as defined in the Lease) and/or any failure by Landlord to timely pay to Tenant the Construction Allowance (as defined in the Lease)).

5. Rent. Tenant has notice that the Lease and the rents and all other sums due thereunder have been assigned to Lender as security for the loan secured by the Security Instrument. In the event Lender notifies Tenant of the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Security Instrument and demands that Tenant pay its rents and all other sums due or to become due under the Lease directly to Lender, Tenant shall honor such demand and pay its rent and all other sums due under the Lease directly to Lender or as otherwise authorized in writing by Lender. Landlord hereby irrevocably authorizes

 

-2-


Tenant to make the foregoing payments to Lender upon such notice and demand, and agrees Tenant shall receive credit for all such payments made to Lender as payments of Rent under the Lease.

6. Lender to Receive Notices. Tenant shall notify Lender of any default by Landlord under the Lease which would entitle Tenant to cancel the Lease, and agrees that, notwithstanding any provisions of the Lease to the contrary, no notice of cancellation thereof shall be effective unless Lender shall have received notice of default giving rise to such cancellation and shall have failed within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such notice to cure such default, or if such default cannot be cured within forty-five (45) days, shall have failed within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such notice to commence and thereafter diligently pursue any action necessary to cure such default, and such default is cured within ninety (90) days after receipt of such notice.

7. NOTICES. All notices or other written communications hereunder shall be deemed to have been properly given (i) upon delivery, if delivered in person with receipt acknowledged by the recipient thereof, (ii) one (1) Business Day (hereinafter defined) after having been deposited for overnight delivery with any reputable overnight courier service, or (iii) three (3) Business Days after having been deposited in any post office or mail depository regularly maintained by the U.S. Postal Service and sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed to the receiving party at its address set forth above, and:

ADDITIONAL SECURITY SERVICES

1.1. For so long as Premises includes the Secured Access Space, Tenant may contract with a fully licensed and insured security company (the “Security Company”) or, at Tenant’s option, utilize employees of Tenant, to provide security officers (the “Security Officers”) in the Secured Access Space for purposes of monitoring access through the Secured Access Space and throughout the Premises.

(a) Tenant agrees to hold harmless, indemnify, and defend Landlord from and against any and all Claims arising from or connected in any way with (i) the acts or omissions of the Security Officers (whether said Security Officers act within or outside of their scope of employment) and the Security Company and (ii) the failure of Tenant to comply with this Section 1.1.

(b) Tenant shall bear the expense of (i) the service provided by the Security Officers, (ii) changes to the reception desks in the Secured Access Space, if changes are necessary to accommodate the Security Officers, and (iii) any telecommunications system which Tenant may request to be installed in Landlord’s security/reception desks located in the 10 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building lobbies including without limitation direct dial connectivity to Tenant telecommunications operator; provided, that any changes to Tenant’s reception desks shall be performed in accordance with the terms of this Lease.

(c) If Tenant elects to use Tenant’s employees as Security Officers, such Security Officers will be fully insured and, if required by any applicable law, licensed.

(d) The Security Company and the Security Officers shall not cause any disharmony (including labor disharmony) with Landlord, Landlord’s contractors, and other Building tenants and their contractors at any time. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all Claims arising out of or in connection with any labor disharmony resulting from Tenant’s use of the Security Company and the Security Officers.

(e) Security provided by Tenant in the Secured Access Space shall be at a level equal to or greater than that provided by Landlord at the other entrances to the Building.

The Security

 

Exhibit L

Page 1


Officers shall not monitor or otherwise interfere with traffic to and from the portions of the 10 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building that are outside of the Premises.

1.4. Turnstiles securing elevator access from pedestrian traffic shall remain operational in each office tower lobby.

1.5. Visitor processing shall continue in accordance with the procedures in place as of the Execution Date; no visitors shall be permitted to enter elevator banks without being pre-registered or having a tenant called for authorization.

Free standing kiosks for pre-registered visitors shall be available to print visitor badges to gain access to the elevator banks.

1.6. The 10 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building lobby “architectural metal walls” which force all elevator users to come through a central point may be removed, at Landlord’s discretion, to allow clear, unobstructed access to the “turnstiled” elevator banks. If after the removal of the “architectural metal walls”, any governmental entity raises the security threat alert for the City to a level above “Yellow” or “Elevated”, and either of Landlord or Tenant determines that stricter protocols for access to the elevator banks is necessary, additional security, as determined by Landlord in Landlord’s good faith discretion, shall be added to each of the 10 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building lobbies by Landlord and such expense shall be included in Expenses.

1.7. Landlord, at Landlord’s expense, shall remove the 30 South Wacker Building lobby glass partition and entrance doors securing the low rise elevators and replace the same with turnstiles securing the elevator bank.

1.8. Landlord shall have the right to remove the x-ray scanners from each of the 10 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building lobbies. If Landlord exercises such right, the scanners shall be retained and used only if any governmental entity raises the security alert threat for the city above “Yellow” or “Elevated”. Landlord shall write and incorporate the policy for the use of such scanners into the Project’s Security Alert Operational Levels Plan. In addition, Landlord shall engage a vendor who provides “Smart Technology” to assist on-site screeners with suspicious packages. Smart Technology will allow the image of the suspected package to be viewed off-site by a trained screener provided by such vendor. When x-rays are used, access to each elevator bank will be restricted to one central access point as existing on the Execution Date (tensor barriers may be used during the raised threat level).

The current practice of hiring armed officers (retired or off-duty police officers) at the 10 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building lobbies and loading dock shall be discontinued. However, if any governmental entity raises the security threat alert for the City above “Yellow” or “Elevated”, and it is necessary in or desirable in Landlord’s sole discretion, off-duty officers shall be assigned to the 10 South Wacker Building and the 30 South Wacker Building lobbies. During these heightened security alerts, Landlord shall post an armed security

Landlord shall maintain and operate a central messenger center (the “Messenger Center”) for the purpose of accepting delivery or pick up of all packages smaller than 150 lbs. or the equivalent of four bankers’ boxes, whether delivered or being picked up by outside messenger or personnel of Building tenants other than Tenant.

Provided the protection barrier is maintained, Landlord shall have the right to change the Wacker Drive perimeter bollard and/or planter system to an equal or better system. Any modification to the “Standoff Distance” drawings shall require the approval of the City of Chicago. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord in securing any necessary permits or approvals from City of Chicago in connection with the Wacker Drive perimeter bollard and/or planter system.

1.13. Current property emergency plans shall be converted to the Tishman Speyer “TS Emergency Procedure Guide Book” and the Tishman Speyer “TS Avian Flu Plan”. Send Word Now (SWN) shall be utilized by Landlord in communicating with tenants during emergencies.

1.16. Landlord shall maintain door alarm devices at each access door to the roof of the 20 South Wacker Building (the “Alarms”);

1.17. Subject to compliance with applicable laws, Landlord shall modify the Building elevator hardware and software to:

(a) With respect to the passenger and freight elevators servicing the Premises, Landlord shall provide, as part of Landlord’s Work, elevator controls including key card controls within elevator cabs and/or at elevator lobby call buttons, such that all elevators restrict access to and from the Premises, the Parking Facilities, the ground floor of the Building and the upper lobby level of the Building, as follows:

(1) With respect to parking elevators located in the 30 South Wacker Building, the parking elevator service will only have access to the ground floor lobby; and

(2) Subject to the provisions of the Lease, with respect to the elevators serving the low mid-rise, mid-rise and high-rise floors, all elevators will be programmed such that access to the low-rise floors (i.e. Upper Lobby through floor 6, or, if Tenant is leasing the same, floor 7) shall be prevented.

(b) With respect to the passenger elevators located in the 10 South Wacker Building prevent, at Tenant’s option, the elevators serving the “low-rise floors”, i.e., the upper lobby level through floor 6, or, if Tenant is leasing the same, floor 7, from answering “hall calls” at the ground lobby level or providing service to the ground lobby level from such passenger elevators.
