All property permitted or required to be removed by Tenant at the end of the term remaining in the demised premises after Tenant’s removal shall be deemed abandoned and may, at me election of Owner, either be retained as Owner’s properly or removed from the demised premises by Owner, at Tenant’s expense. Provided that Tenant shall not have any obligation to remove any such installation or restore the demised premises in connection with any installation or alteration approved by Landlord, unless as may be required under Paragraph 49.

All the aforesaid repairs shall be of quality or class equal to the original work or construction. If the demised premises be or become infested with vermin, Tenant shall, at its expense, cause the same to be exterminated. Except as specifically provided elsewhere in this lease, there shall be no allowance to Tenant for a diminution of rental value and no liability on the part of Owner by reason of inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business arising from Owner, Tenant or others making or failing to make any repairs, alterations, additions or improvements in or to any portion of the building or the demised premises, or in and to the fixtures, appurtenances or equipment thereof. It is specifically agreed that Tenant shall not be entitled to any setoff or reduction of rent by reason of any failure of Owner to comply with the covenants of this or any other article of this lease.

The provisions of this Article 4 with respect to the making of repairs shall not apply in the case of fire or other casualty with regard to which Article 9 hereof shall apply.

Window Cleaning: 5. Tenant will not clean nor require, permit, suffer or allow any window in the demised premises to be cleaned from the outside in violation of Section 202 of the New York State Labor Law or any other applicable law, or of the Rules of the Board of Standards and Appeals, or of any other Board or body having or asserting jurisdiction.

Requirements of Law, Fire Insurance, Floor Loads: 6. Prior to the commencement of the lease term, if Tenant is then in possession, and at all times thereafter, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, promptly comply with all present and future laws, orders and regulations of all state, federal, municipal and local governments, departments, commissions and boards and any direction of any public officer pursuant to law, and all orders, rules and regulations of the New York Board of Fire Underwriters, Insurance Services Office, or any similar body which shall impose any violation, order or duty upon Owner or Tenant with respect to the demised premises, whether or not arising out of Tenant’s use or manner of use thereof, (including the use permitted under the lease). Tenant shall not do or permit any act or thing to be done in or to the demised premises which is contrary to law, or which will invalidate or be in conflict with public liability, fire or other policies of insurance at any time carried by or for the benefit of Owner. Tenant shall not keep anything in the demised premises except as now or hereafter permitted by the Fire Department Board of Fire Underwriters, Fire Insurance Rating Organization and other authority having jurisdiction, and then only in such manner and such quantity so as not to increase the rate for fire insurance applicable to the building, nor use the demised premises in a manner which will increase the insurance rate for the building or any property located therein over that in effect prior to the commencement of Tenant’s occupancy. If by reason of failure to comply with the foregoing the fire insurance rate shall, at the beginning of this lease or at any time thereafter, be higher than it otherwise would be, then Tenant shall reimburse Owner, as additional rent hereunder, for that portion of all fire insurance premiums thereafter paid by Owner which shall have been charged because of such failure by Tenant. In any action or proceeding wherein Owner and Tenant are parties, a schedule or “makeup” or rate for the building or demised premises issued by a body making fire insurance rates applicable to said premises shall be conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated and of the several items and charges in the fire insurance rates then applicable to said premises. Tenant shall not place a load upon any floor of the demised premises exceeding the floor load per square foot area which it was designed to carry and which is allowed by law. Owner reserves the right to prescribe the weight and position of all safes, business machines and mechanical equipment. Such installations shall be placed and maintained by Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, in settings sufficient, in Owner’s judgement, to absorb and prevent vibration, noise and annoyance.

Subordination: 7. This lease is subject and subordinate to all ground or underlying leases and to all mortgages which may now or hereafter affect such leases or the real property of which the demised premises are a part, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of any such underlying leases and mortgages. This clause shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required by any ground or underlying lessor or by any mortgagee, affecting any lease or the real property of which the demised premises are a part. In confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall from time to time execute promptly any certificate that Owner may request.

Tenant’s Liability Insurance Property Loss, Damage, Indemnity: 8. Owner or its agents shall not be liable for any damage to property of Tenant or of others entrusted to employees of the building, nor for loss of, or damage to, any property of Tenant by theft or otherwise, nor for any injury or damage to persons or property resulting from any cause of whatsoever nature, unless caused by, or due to, the negligence of Owner, its agents, servants or employees; Owner or its agents shall not be liable for any damage caused by other tenants or persons in, upon or about said building or caused by operations in connection of any private, public or quasi public work. If at any time any windows of the demised premises are temporarily closed, darkened or bricked up (or permanently closed, darkened or bricked up, if required by law) for any reason whatsoever including, but not limited to, Owner’s own acts, Owner shall not be liable for any damage Tenant may sustain thereby, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation therefor nor abatement or diminution of rent, nor shall the same release Tenant from its obligations hereunder nor constitute an eviction. Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless Owner against and from all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, costs and expenses for which Owner shall not be reimbursed by insurance, including reasonable attorney’s fees, paid, suffered or incurred as a result of any breach by Tenant, Tenant’s agents, contractors, employees, invitees or licensees, of any covenant or condition of this lease, or the carelessness, negligence or improper conduct of Tenant, Tenant’s agents, contractors, employees, invitees or licensees. Tenant’s liability under this lease extends to the acts and omissions of any subtenant, and any agent, contractor, employee, invitee or licensee of any subtenant. In case any action or proceeding is brought against Owner by reason of any such claim, Tenant, upon written notice from Owner, will, at Tenant’s expense, resist or defend such action or proceeding by counsel approved by Owner in writing, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.

Eminent Domain: 10. If the whole of the demised premises shall be acquired or condemned by Eminent Domain for any public or quasi public use or purpose, then and in that event, the term of this lease shall cease and terminate from the date of title vesting in such proceeding and Tenant shall have no claim for the value of any unexpired term of said lease. Tenant shall have the right to make an independent claim to the condemning authority for the value of Tenant’s moving expenses and personal property, trade fixtures and equipment, provided Tenant is entitled pursuant to the terms of the lease to remove such property, trade fixtures and equipment at the end of the term, and provided further such claim does not reduce Owner’s award.

Assignment, Mortgage, Etc.: 11. Tenant, for itself, its heirs, distributees, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns, expressly covenants that it shall not assign, mortgage or encumber this agreement, nor underlet, or suffer or permit the demised premises or any part thereof to be used by others, without the prior written consent of Owner in each instance. Transfer of the majority of the stock of a corporate Tenant or the majority partnership interest of a partnership Tenant shall be deemed an assignment. If this lease be assigned, or if the demised premises or any part thereof be underlet or occupied by anybody other than Tenant, Owner may, after default by Tenant, collect rent from the assignee, undertenant or occupant, and apply the net amount collected to the rent herein reserved, but no such assignment, underletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant, or the acceptance of the assignee, undertenant or occupant as tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. The consent by Owner to an assignment or underletting shall not in any wise be construed to relieve Tenant from obtaining the express consent in writing of Owner to any further assignment or underletting.

Electric Current: 12. Rates and conditions in respect to submetering or rent inclusion, as the case may be, to be added in RIDER attached hereto. Tenant covenants and agrees that at all times its use of electric current shall not exceed the capacity of existing feeders to the building or the risers or wiring installation, and Tenant may not use any electrical equipment which, in Owner’s opinion, reasonably exercised, will overload such installations or interfere with the use thereof by other tenants of the building. The change at any time of the character of electric service shall in no wise make Owner liable or responsible to Tenant, for any loss, damages or expenses which Tenant may sustain.

Access to Premises: 13. Owner or Owner’s agents shall have the right (but shall not be obligated) to enter the demised premises in any emergency at any time, and, at other reasonable times, upon prior notice (which may be by telephone) and accompanied by a representative of Tenant, except in the event of an emergency. Tenant shall have a representative available during normal business hours. To examine the same and to make such repairs, replacements and improvements as Owner may deem necessary and reasonably desirable to any portion of the building, or for the purpose of complying with laws, regulations and other directions of governmental authorities. Tenant shall permit Owner to use, maintain and replace pipes and conduits in and through the demised premises, and to erect new pipes and conduits therein provided, wherever possible, they are within walls or otherwise concealed. Owner may, during the progress of any work in the demised premises, take all necessary materials and equipment into said premises without the same constituting an eviction, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any abatement of rent while such work is in progress, nor to any damages by reason of loss or interruption of business or otherwise. Owner shall use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s business in the exercise of Owner’s rights under the preceding sentence. Throughout the term hereof Owner shall have the right to enter the demised premises at reasonable hours for the purpose of showing the same to prospective purchasers or mortgagees of the building, and during the last six (6) months of the term for the purpose of showing the same to prospective tenants, and may, during said six (6) months period, place upon the demised premises the usual notices “To Let” and “For Sale” which notices Tenant shall permit to remain thereon without molestation. If Tenant is not present to open and permit an entry into the demised premises, Owner or Owner’s agents may enter the same whenever such entry may be necessary or permissible by master key or forcibly, and provided reasonable care is exercised to safeguard Tenant’s property, such entry shall not render Owner or its agents liable therefor, nor in any event shall the obligations of Tenant hereunder be affected. If during the last month of the term Tenant shall have removed all or substantially all of Tenant’s property therefrom, Owner may immediately enter, alter, renovate or redecorate the demised premises without limitation or abatement of rent, or incurring liability to Tenant for any compensation, and such act shall have no effect on this lease or Tenant’s obligation hereunder.

Rider to be added if necessary.

Vault, Vault Space, Area: 14. No vaults, vault space or area, whether or not enclosed or covered, not within the property line of the building is leased hereunder, anything contained in or indicated on any sketch, blue print or plan, or anything contained elsewhere in this lease to the contrary notwithstanding. Owner makes no representation as to the location of the property line of the building. All vaults and vault space and all such areas not within the property line of the building, which Tenant may be permitted to use and/or occupy, is to be used and/or occupied under a revocable license, and if any such license be revoked, or if the amount of such space or area be diminished or required by any federal, state or municipal authority or public utility, Owner shall not be subject to any liability, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or diminution or abatement of rent, nor shall such revocation, diminution or requisition be deemed constructive or actual eviction. Any tax, fee or charge of municipal authorities for such vault or area shall be paid by Tenant, if used by Tenant, whether or not specifically leased hereunder.

Occupancy: 15. Tenant will not at any time use or occupy the demised premises in violation of the certificate of occupancy issued for the building of which the demised premises are a part. Tenant has inspected the demised premises and accepts them as is, subject to the riders annexed hereto with respect to Owner’s work, if any. In any event, Owner makes no representation as to the condition of the demised premises and Tenant agrees to accept the same subject to violations, whether or not of record. If any governmental license or permit shall be required for the proper and lawful conduct of Tenant’s business, Tenant shall be responsible for, and shall procure and maintain, such license or permit.

Bankruptcy: 16. (a) Anything elsewhere in this lease to the contrary notwithstanding, this lease may be cancelled by Owner by sending of a written notice to Tenant within a reasonable time after the happening of any one or more of the following events: (1) the commencement of a case in bankruptcy or under the laws of any state naming Tenant as the debtor (and which, in the case of an involuntary case in bankruptcy, is not dismissed within sixty [60] days after the commencement thereof). or (2) the making by Tenant of an assignment or any other arrangement for the benefit of creditors under any state statute. Neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant, or by reason of any statute or order of court, shall thereafter be entitled to possession of the premises demised, but shall forthwith quit and surrender the demised premises. If this lease shall be assigned in accordance with its terms, the provisions of this Article 16 shall be applicable only to the party then owning Tenant’s interest in this lease.

(b) It is stipulated and agreed that in the event of the termination of this lease pursuant to (a) hereof, Owner shall forthwith, notwithstanding any other provisions of this lease to the contrary, be entitled to recover from Tenant, as and for liquidated damages, an amount equal to the difference between the rental reserved hereunder for the unexpired portion of the term demised and the fair and reasonable rental value of the demised premises for the same period. In the computation of such damages the difference between any installment of rent becoming due hereunder after the date of termination and the fair and reasonable rental value of the demised premises for the period for which such installment was payable shall be discounted to the date of termination at the rate of four percent (4%) per annum. If the demised premises or any part thereof be relet by Owner for the unexpired term of said lease, or any part thereof, before presentation of proof of such liquidated damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved upon such reletting shall be deemed to be the fair and reasonable rental value for the part or the whole of the demised premises so re-let during the term of the re-letting. Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of the Owner to prove for and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such termination, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such damages are to be proved, whether or not such amount be greater, equal to, or less than the amount of the difference referred to above.

Default: 17. (1) If Tenant defaults in fulfilling any of the covenants of this lease other than the covenants for the payment of rent or additional rent; or if the demised premises becomes vacant or deserted, or if this lease be rejected under §365 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code (Bankruptcy Code); or if any execution or attachment shall be issued against Tenant or any of Tenant’s property whereupon the demised premises shall be taken or occupied by someone other than Tenant; or if Tenant shall be in default with respect to any other lease between Owner and Tenant; or if Tenant shall have failed, after five (5) days written notice, to redeposit with Owner any portion of the security deposited hereunder which Owner has applied to the payment of any rent and additional rent due and payable hereunder; or if Tenant fails to move into or take possession of the demised premises within thirty (30) days after the commencement of the term of this lease, of which fact Owner shall be the sole judge; then in any one or more of such events, upon Owner serving a written fifteen (15) days notice upon Tenant specifying the nature of said default, and upon the expiration of said fifteen (15) days, if Tenant shall have failed to comply with or remedy such default, or if the said default or omission complained of shall be of a nature that the same cannot be completely cured or remedied within said fifteen (15) day period, and if Tenant shall not have diligently commenced during such default within such fifteen (15) day period, and shall not thereafter with reasonable diligence and in good faith, proceed to remedy or cure such default, then Owner may serve a written five (5) days notice of cancellation of this lease upon Tenant, and upon the expiration of said five (5) days this lease and the term thereunder shall end and expire as fully and completely as if the expiration of such five (5) day period were the day herein definitely fixed for the end and expiration of this lease and the term thereof, and Tenant shall then quit and surrender the demised premises to Owner, but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided.

(2) If the notice provided for in (1) hereof shall have been given, and the term shall expire as aforesaid; or if Tenant shall be in default in the payment of the rent reserved herein or any item of additional rent herein mentioned, or any part of either, or in making any other payment herein required; then, and in any of such events, Owner may without notice, re-enter the demised premises either by force or otherwise, and dispossess Tenant by summary proceedings or otherwise, and the legal representative of Tenant or other occupant of the demised premises, and remove their effects and hold the demised premises as if this lease had not been made, and Tenant hereby waives the service of notice of intention to re-enter or to institute legal proceedings to that end. If Tenant shall make default hereunder prior to the date fixed as the commencement of any renewal or extension of this lease, Owner may cancel and terminate such renewal or extension agreement by written notice.

Remedies of Owner and Waiver of Redemption: 18. In case of any such default, re-entry, expiration and/or dispossess by summary proceedings or other wise, (a) the rent, and additional rent, shall become due thereupon and be paid up to the time of such re-entry, dispossess and/or expiration, (b) Owner may re-let the demised premises or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Owner or otherwise, for a term or terms, which may at Owner’s option be less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this lease, and may grant concessions or free rent or charge a higher rental than that in this lease, (c) Tenant or the legal representatives of Tenant shall also pay to Owner as liquidated damages for the failure of Tenant to observe and perform said Tenant’s covenants herein contained, any deficiency between the rent hereby reserved and or covenanted to be paid and the net amount, if any, of the rents collected on account of the subsequent lease or leases of the demised premises for each month of the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this lease. The failure of Owner to re-let the demised premises or any part or parts thereof shall not release or affect Tenant’s liability for damages. In computing such liquidated damages there shall be added to the said deficiency such expenses as Owner may incur in connection with re-letting, such as legal expenses, reasonable attorneys’ fees, brokerage, advertising, and for keeping the demised premises in good order or for preparing the same for re-letting. Any such liquidated damages shall be paid in monthly installments by Tenant on the rent day specified in this lease, and any suit brought to collect the amount of the deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the rights of Owner to collect the deficiency for any subsequent month by a similar proceeding. Owner, in putting the demised premises in good order or preparing the same for re-rental may, at Owner’s option, make such alterations, repairs, replacements, and/or decorations in the demised premises as Owner, in Owner’s sole judgment, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of re-letting the demised premises, and the making of such alterations, repairs, replacements, and/or decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid. Owner shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for failure to re-let the demised premises, or in the event that the demised premises are re-let, for failure to collect the rent thereof under such re-letting, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess, if any, of such net rents collected over the sums payable by Tenant to Owner hereunder. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the covenants or provisions hereof, Owner shall have the right of injunction and the right to invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity as if re-entry, summary proceedings and other remedies were not herein provided for. Mention in this lease of any particular remedy, shall not preclude Owner from any other remedy, in law or in equity. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws.

Fees and Expenses: 19. If Tenant shall default in the observance or performance of any term or covenant on Tenant’s part to be observed or performed under, or by virtue of, any of the terms or provisions in any article of this lease, after notice if required, and upon expiration of the applicable grace period, if any, (except in an emergency), then, unless otherwise provided elsewhere in this lease, Owner may immediately, or at any time thereafter, and without notice, perform the obligation of Tenant thereunder. If Owner, in connection with the foregoing, or in connection with any default by Tenant in the covenant to pay rent hereunder, makes any expenditures or incurs any obligations for the payment of money, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, in instituting, prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding, then Tenant will reimburse Owner for such sums so paid or obligations incurred with interest and costs. The foregoing expenses incurred by reason of Tenant’s default shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder and shall be paid by Tenant to Owner within ten (10) days of rendition of any bill or statement to Tenant therefor. If Tenant’s lease term shall have expired at the time of making of such expenditures or incurring of such obligations, such sums shall be recoverable by Owner as damages.

Building Alterations and Management: 20. Owner shall have the right, at any time, without the same constituting an eviction and without incurring liability to Tenant therefor, to change the arrangement and or location of public entrances, passageways, doors, doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the building, and to change the name, number or designation by which the building may be known. There shall be no allowance to Tenant for diminution of rental value and no liability on the part of Owner by reason of inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business arising from Owner or other Tenant making any repairs in the building or any such alterations, additions and improvements. Furthermore, Tenant shall not have any claim against Owner by reason of Owner’s imposition of any controls of the manner of access to the building by Tenant’s social or business visitors, as Owner may deem necessary, for the security of the building and its occupants.

No Representations by Owner: 21. Neither Owner nor Owner’s agents have made any representations or promises with respect to the physical condition of the building, the land upon which it is erected, the demised premises, the rents, leases, expenses of operation, or any other matter or thing affecting or related to the demised premises or the building, except as herein expressly set forth, and no rights, easements or licenses are acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise except as expressly set forth in the provisions of this lease. Tenant has inspected the building and the demised premises and is thoroughly acquainted with their condition and agrees to take the same “as-is” on the date possession is tendered, and acknowledges that the taking of possession of the demised premises by Tenant shall be conclusive evidence that the said premises, and the building of which the same form a part, were in good and satisfactory condition at the time such possession was so taken, except as to latent defects. All understandings and agreements heretofore made between the parties hereto are merged in this contract, which alone fully and completely expresses the agreement between Owner and Tenant, and any executory agreement hereafter made shall be ineffective to change, modify, discharge or effect an abandonment of it in whole or in part, unless such executory agreement is in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, modification, discharge or abandonment is sought.

End of Term: 22. Upon the expiration or other termination of the term of this lease, Tenant shall quit and surrender to Owner the demised premises, “broom-clean”, in good order and condition, ordinary wear and damages which Tenant is not required to repair as provided elsewhere in this lease excepted, and Tenant shall remove all its property from the demised premises. Tenant’s obligation to observe or perform this covenant shall survive the expiration or other termination of this lease. If the last day of the term of this Lease, or any renewal thereof, falls on Sunday, this lease shall expire at noon on the preceding Saturday, unless it be a legal holiday, in which case it shall expire at noon on the preceding business day.

Quiet Enjoyment: 23. Owner covenants and agrees with Tenant that upon Tenant paying the rent and additional rent and observing and performing all the terms, covenants and conditions, on Tenant’s part to be observed and performed, Tenant may peaceably and quietly enjoy the premises hereby demised, subject, nevertheless, to the terms and conditions of this lease including, but not limited to, Article 34 hereof, and to the ground leases, underlying leases and mortgages hereinbefore mentioned.

Failure to Give Possession: 24. If Owner is unable to give possession of the demised premises on the date of the commencement of the term hereof because of the holding-over or retention of possession of any tenant, undertenant or occupants, or if the demised premises are located in a building being constructed, because such building has not been sufficiently completed to make the premises ready for occupancy or because of the fact that a certificate of occupancy has not been procured, or if Owner has not completed any work required to be performed by Owner, or for any other reason, Owner shall not be subject to any liability for failure to give possession on said date and the validity of the lease shall not be impaired under such circumstances, nor shall the same be construed in any wise to extend the term of this lease, but the rent payable hereunder shall be abated (provided Tenant is not responsible for Owner’s inability to obtain possession or complete any work required) until after Owner shall have given Tenant notice that Owner is able to deliver possession in the condition required by this lease. If permission is given to Tenant to enter into possession of the demised premises, or to occupy premises other than the demised premises, prior to the date specified as the commencement of the term of this lease, Tenant covenants and agrees that such possession and/or occupancy shall be deemed to be under all the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this lease, except the obligation to pay the fixed annual rent set forth in page one of this lease. The provisions of this article are intended to constitute “an express provision to the contrary” within the meaning of Section 223-a of the New York Real Property Law.

No Waiver: 25. The failure of Owner to seek redress for violation of, or to insist upon the strict performance of, any covenant or condition of this lease, or of any of the Rules or Regulations, set forth or hereafter adopted by Owner, shall not prevent a subsequent act, which would have originally constituted a violation, from having all the force and effect of an original violation. The receipt by Owner of rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant of this lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no provision of this lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Owner unless such waiver be in writing signed by Owner. No payment by Tenant, or receipt by Owner, of a lesser amount than the monthly rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement of any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Owner may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Owner’s right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy in this lease provided. All checks tendered to Owner as and for the rent of the demised premises shall be deemed payments for the account of Tenant. Acceptance by Owner of rent from anyone other than Tenant shall not be deemed to operate as an attornment to Owner by the payor of such rent, or as a consent by Owner to an assignment or subletting by Tenant of the demised premises to such payor, or as a modification of the provisions of this lease. No act or thing done by Owner or Owner’s agents during the term hereby demised shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of said premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall be valid unless in writing signed by Owner. No employee of Owner or Owner’s agent shall have any power to accept the keys of said premises prior to the termination of the lease, and the delivery of keys to any such agent or employee shall not operate as a termination of the lease or a surrender of the demised premises.

Waiver of Trial by Jury: 26. It is mutually agreed by and between Owner and Tenant that the respective parties hereto shall, and they hereby do, waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other (except for personal injury or property damage) on any matters whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this lease, the relationship of Owner and Tenant, Tenant’s use of or occupancy of demised premises, and any emergency statutory or any other statutory remedy.

Inability to Perform: 27. This Lease and the obligation of Tenant to pay rent hereunder and perform all of the other covenants and agreements hereunder on part of Tenant to be performed shall in no wise be affected, impaired or excused because Owner is unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this lease, or to supply, or is delayed in supplying, any service expressly or impliedly to be supplied, or is unable to make, or is delayed in making, any repairs, additions, alterations or decorations, or is unable to supply, or is delayed in supplying, any equipment, fixtures or other materials, if Owner is prevented or delayed from doing so by reason of strike or labor troubles, or any cause whatsoever beyond Owner’s sole control including, but not limited to, government preemption or restrictions, or by reason of any rule, order or regulation of any department or subdivision thereof of any government agency, or by reason of the conditions which have been or are affected, either directly or indirectly, by war or other emergency.

Bills and Notices: 28. Except as otherwise in this lease provided, a bill statement, notice or communication which Owner may desire or be required to give to Tenant, shall be deemed sufficiently given or rendered if, in writing, delivered to Tenant personally, or sent by registered or certified mail addressed to Tenant at the building of which the demised premises form a part, or at the last known residence address or business address of Tenant, or left at any of the aforesaid premises addressed to Tenant, and the time of the rendition of such bill or statement and of the giving of such notice or communication shall be deemed to be the time when the same is delivered to Tenant, mailed, or left at the premises as herein provided. Any notice by Tenant to Owner must be served by registered or certified mail addressed to Owner at the address first hereinabove given, or at such other address as Owner shall designate by written notice.

Water Charges: 29. Throughout the duration of Tenant’s occupancy, Tenant shall keep the water meter and installation equipment in good working order and repair at Tenant’s own cost and expense. In the event Tenant fails to maintain the meter and installation equipment in good working order and repair (of which fact Owner shall be the sole judge) Owner may cause such meter and equipment to be replaced or repaired, and collect the cost thereof from Tenant as additional rent. Tenant agrees to pay for water consumed, as shown on said meter as and when bills are rendered, and in the event Tenant defaults in the making of such payment, Owner may pay such charges and collect the same from Tenant as additional rent. Tenant covenants and agrees to pay, as additional rent, the sewer rent, charge or any other tax, rent or levy which now or hereafter is assessed, imposed or a lien upon the demised premises, or the realty of which they are a part, pursuant to any law, order or regulation made or issued in connection with the use, consumption, maintenance or supply of water, the water system or sewage or sewage connection or system. Independently of, and in addition to, any of the remedies reserved to Owner hereinabove or elsewhere in this lease, Owner may sue for and collect any monies to be paid by Tenant, or paid by Owner, for any of the reasons or purposes hereinabove set forth.

Sprinklers: 30. Anything elsewhere in this lease to the contrary notwithstanding, if the New York Board of Fire Underwriters or the New York Fire Insurance Exchange or any bureau, department or official of the federal, state or city government recommend or require the installation of a sprinkler system, or that any changes, modifications, alterations, or additional sprinkler heads or other equipment be made or supplied in an existing sprinkler system by reason of Tenant’s business, the location of partitions, trade fixtures, or other contents of the demised premises, or for any other reason, or if any such sprinkler system installations, modifications, alterations, additional sprinkler heads or other such equipment, become necessary to prevent the imposition of a penalty or charge against the full allowance for a sprinkler system in the fire insurance rate set by said Exchange or any other body making fire insurance rates, or by any fire insurance company, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, promptly make such sprinkler system installations, changes, modifications, alterations, and supply additional sprinkler heads or other equipment as required, whether the work involved shall be structural or non-structural in nature.

In accordance with paragraph 70 of the rider, Tenant shall deposit with Owner the sum of $ 100,000.00 as security for the faithful performance and observance by Tenant of the terms, provisions and conditions of this lease. It is agreed that in the event Tenant defaults in respect of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this lease, including, but not limited to, the payment of rent and additional rent, Owner may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the security so deposited to the extent required for the payment of any rent and additional rent, or any other sum as to which Tenant is in default, or for any sum which Owner may expend, or may be required to expend, by reason of Tenant’s default in respect of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this lease, including but not limited to, any damages or deficiency in the re-letting of the demised premises, whether such damages or deficiency accrued before or after summary proceedings or other re-entry by Owner. In the event that Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this lease, the security shall be returned to Tenant after the date fixed as the end of the lease, and after delivery of entire possession of the demised premises to Owner. In the event of a sale of the land and building or leasing of the building, of which the demised premises form a part, Owner shall have the right to transfer the security to the vendee or lessee, and Owner shall thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability for the return of such security; and Tenant agrees to look to the new Owner solely for the return of said security, and it is agreed that the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment made of the security to a new Owner. Tenant further covenants that it will not assign or encumber, or attempt to assign or encumber, the monies deposited herein as security, and that neither Owner nor its successors or assigns shall be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance.

The words “re-enter” and “re-entry” as used in this lease are not restricted to their technical legal meaning. The term “rent” includes the annual rental rate whether so expressed or expressed in monthly installments, and “additional rent.” “Additional rent” means all sums which shall be due to Owner from Tenant under this lease, in addition to the annual rental rate. The term “business days” as used in this lease, shall exclude Saturdays, Sundays and all days observed by the State or Federal Government as legal holidays, and those designated as holidays by the applicable building service union employees service contract, or by the applicable Operating Engineers contract with respect to HVAC service.

Notice of any additional Rules or Regulations shall be given in such manner as Owner may elect. In case Tenant disputes the reasonableness of any additional Rules or Regulations hereafter made or adopted by Owner or Owner’s agents, the parties hereto agree to submit the question of the reasonableness of such Rules or Regulations for decision to the New York office of the American Arbitration Association, whose determination shall be final and conclusive upon the parties hereto. The right to dispute the reasonableness of any additional Rules or Regulations upon Tenant’s part shall be deemed waived unless the same shall be asserted by service of a notice, in writing, upon Owner, within fifteen (15) days after the giving of notice thereof. Nothing in this lease contained shall be construed to impose upon Owner any duty or obligation to enforce the Rules and Regulations or terms, covenants or conditions in any other lease, as against any other tenant, and Owner shall not be liable to Tenant for violation of the same by any other tenant, its servants, employees, agents, visitors or licensees.

Glass: 37. Tenant shall replace, at the expense of Tenant, any and all plate and other glass damaged or broken from any cause whatsoever in and about the demised premises.

	B.	Tenant, without any requirement of prior notice to Tenant, agrees to pay a late payment and administrative charge of five (5%) percent of the total monthly rental due, including any and all additions to Base Rent, if the Base Rent is not paid when due and such nonpayment continues beyond the tenth (10th) day of the month. Such late payment and administrative charge shall be due as additional rent, shall be in addition to all of Landlord’s other rights and remedies hereunder in the event of Tenant’s default, and shall be payable with the rent to which it pertains. Tenant further agrees that the late payment and administrative charge imposed is fair and reasonable, complies with all laws, regulations and statutes, and constitutes an agreement between Landlord and Tenant as to the estimated compensation for costs and administrative expenses incurred by Landlord due to the late payment of rent to Landlord by Tenant. Tenant further agrees that the late payment and administrative charge assessed pursuant to this Lease is not interest, and the late payment and administrative charge does not constitute a lender or borrower/creditor relationship between Landlord and Tenant. Acceptance of such late payment and administrative charge by Landlord shall in no event in the future constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising in the future any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. Furthermore, in the event any check delivered to Landlord in payment of any amount due under this Lease is returned uncollected, for non-sufficient funds, or for any like reason, in addition to any and all remedies available to Landlord, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, as additional rent, the sum of $20.00 to compensate Landlord for the additional administrative cost and expense incurred by Landlord by reason of such check. In the event Tenant shall be served with a demand for the payment of any past due amount under this Lease, any payments tendered thereafter to cure any default by Tenant shall be made only by cashier’s or certified check.

	C.	It is fully understood and Landlord and Tenant agree that this is a “net, net, net lease”, and Tenant is to be fully responsible, liable and is to pay for all taxes, fees, expenses, assessments, insurance, repairs, both interior and exterior, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen and any other charges for the Premises, except to the extent otherwise set forth in this Lease and Landlord shall be indemnified and saved harmless by Tenant from and against all costs and expenses arising from nonpayment of or noncompliance with the same.

42.	Real Estate Taxes:

	A.	In addition to Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent, during each and every year during the term of this Lease, and for so long as Tenant’s occupancy of the premises continues, Tenant agrees to pay and shall pay, as additional rent, any and all increases in Real Estate Taxes (as defined below), and assessments imposed on 91. Heartland Boulevard above those for the Base Tax Year (as hereinafter defined). Any increase(s) in Real Estate Taxes due to an increase in the assessed valuation of the land or building caused by Tenant’s use and occupation of the premises shall be borne entirely by Tenant.

Tenant shall be responsible for payment of increases in Real Estate Taxes, as additional rent hereunder, on a semiannual basis, thirty (30) days prior to the date Landlord is required to make said payments to the taxing authority, without penalty.

		If Landlord decides at any time and from time to time during the term, at its sole option, Tenant shall make monthly Real Estate Tax payments, along with the monthly Base Rent due, in accordance with the procedure as set forth in paragraph 45. The parties agree their intent is that Tenant shall have made Real Estate Tax payments to Landlord, in full, prior to the date said Real Estate Tax payments are due to the taxing authority.

		Tenant shall also be responsible for payment of all Real Estate Taxes levied during the term of this Lease even if the Real Estate Taxes are billed after the termination date of this Lease. Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall survive the termination of this Lease. Partial Lease Years shall be prorated.

		Landlord shall be entitled to all remedies available for nonpayment of Base Rent in the event Tenant fails to make any payment(s) as in this paragraph 42 provided. In addition to all remedies available to Landlord, in the event Tenant fails to timely make any Real Estate Tax payment(s), Landlord shall be entitled to a late payment and administrative charge of five (5%) percent on said sum due but not timely paid. The late payment and administrative charge shall be payable as additional rent along with the additional rent to which it pertains.

“Real Estate Taxes” shall mean the sum of all taxes, real estate and real property taxes, assessments, special assessments, school taxes, town and/or county taxes, assessed upon, or with respect to the buildings and improvements known as 91 Heartland Blvd. and the land, and any rights or interests appurtenant to either, imposed by Federal, State or local governmental authority, or any other taxing authority having jurisdiction thereover. Real Estate Taxes shall also include all fees and expenses associated with the institution, prosecution, conduct and maintenance of any negotiations, protests, certiorari, settlements, actions or proceedings with respect to Real Estate Taxes or assessments, and any tax attributable to improvements of whatever kind and to whom belonging, situated or installed in or upon the premises, whether or not affixed to the realty. Landlord agrees that any attorney hired by Landlord for institution or prosecution of any tax protest, certioraris, actions, or proceedings shall be hired on a contingency basis. If at any time during the term of this Lease the methods of taxation prevailing at the commencement of the term hereof shall be altered so that in lieu of, as an addition or supplemental to, or as a substitute for the whole or any part of the taxes, assessments, levies, impositions or charges now levied, assessed or imposed on real estate and the improvements thereon, there shall be levied, assessed or imposed (i) a tax, assessment, levy, imposition or charge wholly or partially as capital levy or otherwise on the rents received therefrom, or (ii) a tax assessment, levy, imposition or charge measured by or based in whole or in part upon the demised premises and imposed upon Landlord, or (iii) a license fee or charge measured by the rents payable by Tenant to Landlord, then all such taxes, assessments, levies, impositions or charges, or the part thereof so measured or based, shall be deemed to be included within the term “Real Estate Taxes” for the purposes hereof.

	C.	For the purposes hereof, the period December 1, 2010 through November 30, 2011 shall be the Base Tax Year.

	D.	Either party to this Lease shall promptly notify the other in writing of any change in the assessed value of the Premises of which the Landlord or Tenant is or becomes aware, in order to permit a timely contest of such change. Tenant shall have the right to initiate and prosecute, at its own cost and expense, including, but not limited to counsel fees, in Landlord’s name, proceedings to reduce assessments for Real Estate Taxes. Prior to initiating any such proceeding, Tenant shall give Landlord notice of its intention to initiate the same not less than (a) thirty (30) days prior to initiation or (b) such number of days (plus ten (10) days) as will permit the timely initiation of such a proceeding, whichever is less. Landlord shall have the right to initiate such proceedings in the event Tenant elects not to initiate the same or fails to timely notify Landlord. In the event either party elects to initiate any proceeding to reduce assessments of Real Estate Taxes and in the further event that either party receives any Real Estate Tax refund or refunds as a result thereof, provided Tenant is not in default under the terms of this Lease, such refund shall be payable to Tenant to the extent that such refund relates to increases in Real Estate Taxes theretofore paid by Tenant to Landlord, pursuant to paragraph 42. In the last two years of the term of the Lease, Tenant agrees that it will not stipulate or settle any proceeding initiated by it unless the terms of such stipulation or settlement are approved by Landlord, which approval by Landlord will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

	E.	Attached hereto is a copy of the 2010/2011 tax office tax bill for 91 Heartland Blvd. If this tax bill includes more land than the land as described in Exhibit “A” attached to this Lease and at such later date there is a separate tax bill for such land as not included on Exhibit “A”, Tenant shall not be responsible for taxes as set forth on the separate tax bill for such land.

43.	Insurance:

Each such policy is to be written by one or more responsible insurance companies satisfactory to Landlord, licensed and admitted to do business in the State of New York, with a Best’s rating of A, or greater, and a financial size category of X, or greater, and the limits of liability thereunder shall not be less than $1,000,000 combined single limit bodily injury, death and/or property damage per occurrence, and a $2,000,000 aggregate limit and a $4,000,000 umbrella liability policy, or a combined single limit of $5,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, death and/or property damage, and against claims arising from contractual obligations, and loss of rents. Policy will be endorsed to include Landlord and its assignees as additional insured.

	B.	(1)	Keep the building and all other buildings and improvements and all furnishings and equipment on, at, in or appurtenant to the Premises at the commencement of the term, and/or thereafter erected thereon or therein (including all alterations, rebuildings, replacements, changes, additions and improvements) insured in an amount equal to the full replacement cost thereof against loss or damage from all risk perils and insurable risks, including fire, casualty (including rental income coverage) and all available additional extended coverage, including damage by lightning, hail, explosion, windstorm, tornado, cyclone, riot, disorder or civil commotion, smoke damage, vandalism, malicious mischief (when obtainable and if not included in such extended coverage), and loss of rents. Such policy shall also include building ordinance coverage, including increased cost of construction and demolition cost.

	(2)	Provide and keep in force loss of rent coverage in amount not less than the annual base rental plus the annual estimated Real Estate Taxes and insurance premiums.

	(3)	If a sprinkler system shall be located in the Building, provide and keep in force sprinkler leakage insurance. In addition, Tenant shall obtain, at its sole cost and expense, a sprinkler supervisory, maintenance and alarm service contract for the sprinkler system at the Premises.

	(7)	Tenant shall maintain insurance for the full replacement value of its own contents, inventory and trade fixtures.

C.	Each party hereby releases the other party (which term as used in this subdivision includes the employees, agents, officers and directors of the other party) from all liability, whether for negligence or otherwise, in connection with loss covered by any insurance policy which the releasor carries with respect to the Premises or any interest or property therein or thereon (whether or not such insurance is required to be carried under this Lease), but only to the extent that such loss is collected under said insurance policies. Such release is also conditioned upon the inclusion in the policy or policies of a provision whereby any such release shall not adversely affect said policies or prejudice any right of the releasor to recover thereunder. Each party agrees that its insurance policies, aforesaid, will include such a provision, if obtainable. If the inclusion of such provision requires an additional premium, the party for whose benefit the provision is obtained shall, on demand, pay such extra premium to the party carrying the insurance.

	D.	Unless otherwise requested by Landlord all insurance provided by Tenant under this paragraph 43, except Tenant’s contents and inventory insurance, shall be carried in favor of Landlord (including the officers, directors and stockholders of any corporation which is the Landlord and the partners and spouses of any partnership which is the Landlord) and the holder of any mortgage(s) affecting the Premises as additional named insured and loss payee, as their respective interests may appear. Such policies shall be in companies licensed and admitted to do business in the State of New York, as Landlord and/or any mortgagee shall approve, with a Best’s Rating of A or greater, and a financial size category of 10, or greater, and such policies shall provide that proceeds shall be payable to Landlord and, at Landlord’s request, any such mortgagee as their respective interests may appear. Tenant shall not carry separate insurance, concurrent in coverage and contributing in the event of loss with any insurance required to be furnished by Tenant under the provisions of this paragraph 43 if the effect of such insurance would be to reduce the protection or the payment to be made under said insurance required to be furnished by Tenant, unless Landlord and any mortgagee as aforesaid are included as insured with loss payable as hereinabove provided. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of the issuance of any such separate insurance and shall cause such policies to be delivered to Landlord, as hereinafter provided. Each policy of insurance to be carried by Tenant under this Lease shall be reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

	E.	With respect to any policies of insurance provided by Tenant under any provision of this paragraph 43, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord and/or any designee of Landlord, prior to occupancy of the Premises by Tenant, or at least twenty (20) days prior to the time such insurance is first required to be carried by Tenant, and thereafter at least twenty (20) days prior to the expiration of any such policy, either a duplicate original of such policy or a certificate of all polices procured by Tenant in compliance with its obligations hereunder together with evidence of payment therefor and including an endorsement which states that such insurance may not be cancelled except upon thirty (30) days written notice to Landlord and/or designee of Landlord. At least twenty (20) days prior to the expiration of each policy, Tenant shall procure renewal insurance and within such period shall deliver to Landlord and/or any designee of Landlord the original renewal policy.

	F.	Property Loss or Damage and Indemnity: Tenant shall forever indemnify and save Landlord harmless from and against (i) any and all liability, loss, damage, cost and expense, including counsel fees, arising from any injury to person or property of third persons occurring during the term of this Lease wholly or in part by reason of any act or omission of Tenant or of its employees, guests, invitees, agents, assigns or undertenants; and (ii) any other matter or thing arising or growing out of the occupation of the Premises by Tenant; and, at Landlord’s election, Tenant shall at its cost and expense defend any suit or proceeding instituted against Landlord by reason of any such injury or alleged injury to person or property or by reason of any other such matter or thing. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage which may be sustained by Tenant or any other person from any act or omission on the part of the Landlord or of any other tenant or agent or employee of any tenant or of Landlord unless caused by the negligence or misconduct of Landlord, its agents or employees.

	G.	Tenant shall pay all premiums and charges for all such policies, and if Tenant shall fail to make any such payment when due, or to carry any such policy, Landlord, at its option, may but shall not be obligated to, make such payment or carry such policy, and the amounts paid by Landlord, with interest thereon from the date of payment, shall become due and payable by Tenant as additional rent with the next succeeding installment of Base Rent. Payment by Landlord of any such premiums or the carrying by Landlord of any such policies shall not be deemed to waive or release the default of Tenant with respect thereto, or the right of Landlord to take such action as may be permissible hereunder as in the case of default in the payment of Base Rent.

	H.	Tenant shall not violate or permit to be violated, any of the conditions or provisions of any such policy, and Tenant shall perform and satisfy the requirements of the companies writing such policies that at all times companies licensed by the State of New York satisfactory to Landlord or any mortgagee shall be willing to write and/or continue such insurance.

	I.	Tenant and Landlord shall cooperate in connection with the collection of any insurance monies that may be due in the event of a loss and Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord such proofs of loss and other instruments which may be required for the purpose of obtaining the recovery of any insurance monies.

	J.	Tenant agrees that during the term of the Lease, or any extension thereof, the limits of the insurance required by this Section shall be increased if necessary to afford Landlord the same protection as provided to Landlord at the commencement of the term of this Lease provided the amount and/or type of coverage is commercially reasonable for industrial/office tenants in Nassau and Suffolk counties, New York. In no event shall the limits of insurance be reduced below what they were at the commencement of the term.

	K.	Each policy evidencing the insurance to be carried by Tenant under this Lease shall contain a clause that such policy and the coverage evidenced thereby shall be primary with respect to any policies carried by Landlord, and that any coverage carried by Landlord shall be excess insurance.

44.	Destruction:

A.	If during the term of this Lease, or any extension thereof, any portion of the Premises or any building, structure or improvement thereof, thereon or therein, or appurtenant thereto, is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty as a result of a peril insured against pursuant to this Lease, Tenant shall forthwith give notice thereof to Landlord and then Landlord shall thereafter commence promptly, after adjustments of insurance, and building weather permitting, at its own cost, to repair, replace and rebuild the Premises, but to the extent only of proceeds received by Landlord from insurance and to the extent only of Landlord’s work prior to occupancy of the Premises by Tenant. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to expend a greater sum for the restoration of the Premises than the sum Landlord received as insurance proceeds due to said damage or destruction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Landlord will commence making repairs immediately following such damage or destruction provided that Tenant advances the necessary funds to Landlord to cover the cost hereof. If Tenant, after obtaining Landlord’s permission, makes the necessary repairs, Landlord will make reimbursement to Tenant of the actual cost thereof, not to exceed the insurance proceeds received by Landlord. Nothing in this paragraph shall require Landlord to restore, replace or repair any inventory, furniture, chattels, signs, contents, fixtures, including trade fixtures) or personal property of Tenant located, on, in, or about the Premises, or which serve the Premises or rebuild the Premises in the condition and state that existed before any such damage or destruction.

	B.	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in the event of any destruction of the building to the extent of more than forty (40%) percent of the cost of total replacement thereof, at a time when less than three (3) years remain in the term hereof, Landlord may elect to terminate this lease on thirty (30) days notice to Tenant, given at any time within sixty (60) days after such damage or destruction, and in such case all proceeds shall be paid and belong to Landlord and upon such termination neither party shall be thereafter under any obligation to the other for any liability under this Lease which shall thereafter accrue.

	C.	Except to the extent Landlord receives rent insurance as hereinabove provided, neither the rent payable by Tenant nor any of Tenant’s other obligations under the other provisions of this Lease shall be affected by any damage to or destruction of the Premises, and Tenant expressly waives such additional rights as it might otherwise have under any law or statute by reason of damage or destruction of the Premises by fire or any other cause.

	D.	Landlord agrees to diligently pursue the substantial completion of the repairs required herein within 180 days from the date of such fire, (subject to extension by delays caused by the acts or omissions of Tenant, labor troubles, force majuere, weather, or causes beyond Owner’s reasonable control). Only in the event Landlord is unable to substantially complete the repairs within 180 days from the date of the fire (subject to extension for the reasons enumerated above) so that the Tenant may re-occupy the Premises (whether or not Tenant does occupy the Premises), provided Tenant is not in default under any of the terms and conditions of this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord, which notice shall contain a date upon which this Lease shall terminate, which date shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of Tenant’s notice. If on the date set forth in Tenant’s notice for the termination of this Lease by reason of Landlord’s failure to timely complete such repairs Landlord shall not have substantially completed such repairs, this Lease shall terminate on such date set forth in Tenant’s notice as if such date was the date originally set forth in this Lease for the expiration of the term thereof. If by the date set forth in Tenant’s notice Landlord has substantially completed such repairs, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s notice shall be null and void. The right herein granted to Tenant shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of an event covered by paragraph 44 of this Lease and Tenant hereby expressly waives any other rights and remedies it may have against Landlord. All obligations which were to survive the expiration or termination of the term of this Lease shall survive the termination of this Lease in accordance with this paragraph.

45.	Additional Rent Payments:

	Notwithstanding anything in this Lease, during each and every Lease Year, Tenant shall be responsible for payment to Landlord, as additional rent, at Landlord’s sole option at any time and from time to time, along with each monthly installment of Base Rent due hereunder, of an amount equal to one twelfth (1/12) of the Real Estate Taxes due under this Lease, on account of the Real Estate Taxes payment due to Landlord for the then current Lease Year. Tenant’s payments shall be based upon Landlord’s estimate of these payments for the premises for the current Lease Year. Such payments shall be due as additional rent. At the end of each Lease Year, Landlord shall determine the actual amount due from Tenant for Real Estate Taxes in accordance with the terms of this Lease for each Lease Year, and Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of being billed for the same (whether or not the same is billed after the expiration or sooner termination of the term of this Lease), pay to Landlord any amount actually due to Landlord, but not paid. For each Lease Year after the first Lease Year, Tenant’s estimated payment shall be based upon, but shall not be less than, the actual payments for the prior Lease Year, unless a higher amount is required by Landlord. It is understood that all payments due hereunder are deemed to be additional rent and Landlord shall be entitled to all remedies available in the event of nonpayment of Base Rent should Tenant fail to make payments as in this paragraph provided.

Tenant’s monthly payments for Real Estate Taxes shall continue until Tenant receives notice to the contrary from Landlord.

46.	No Broker:

	Landlord and Tenant each warrant and represent to each other that there was no broker instrumental in consummating this Lease and that no conversations or negotiations were had with any broker concerning this Lease or the premises. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is relying upon this representation by Tenant and Landlord would not have entered into this Lease without such representation. Each of Landlord and Tenant agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless against any commissions, costs, claims, judgments or other expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, for a brokerage commission arising out of any conversations or negotiations had with any broker by the indemnifying party. Any payments due to Landlord hereunder shall be due as additional rent. The warranties and representations contained in this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Lease.

47.	Holdover:

	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event Tenant does not vacate the premises upon the expiration date of this Lease, or upon the expiration of any option, then and in that event or events, and only with the written permission of Landlord, Tenant shall remain as a month to month Tenant at a monthly rental which is the greater of two times the monthly rental paid in the last month of the term or the market rate for the premises at the expiration date of the Lease, payable as aforesaid,

48.	Signs:

	Without Landlord’s prior written consent, Tenant shall not place or install any sign on the roof nor any exterior wall of the building (including without limitation, both the interior and exterior surfaces of windows and doors) nor on any part of the land except that Tenant may install and maintain, at its own cost and expense, including payments for permits and the sign, a single flat faced sign on the front of the building, subject to the approval of Landlord as to dimensions, content, material, location and design. In this regard, Tenant’s sign shall conform to the type of sign which shall be uniformly required by Landlord for all tenants in the buildings in the Heartland Business Center. In the event Tenant shall use its current sign on the building 60 Heartland Boulevard for the Premises, Landlord hereby consents to the same. Tenant agrees that the sign shall not be installed on the premises or the building until all governmental approvals and permits are first obtained, including payment for the same, and copies thereof delivered to Landlord together with evidence of payment for any fees pertaining to Tenant’s sign. Tenant shall procure appropriate Workmen’s Compensation and liability insurance policies covering the installation and maintenance of any signs, and all such policies or certificates of such policies shall be delivered to Landlord prior to the commencement of any work and shall provide that such policies shall not be canceled, except upon ten (10) days’ written notice to Landlord.

The total cost thereof shall be payable by Tenant with the next monthly installment of Base Rent and shall be payable as additional rent. Landlord shall be entitled to all remedies available in the event of nonpayment of Base Rent in the event Tenant fails to make the payments as in this paragraph provided.

		(b)	with respect to a proposed subletting of the entire premises, the right to terminate this Lease on the Effective Date as if it were the expiration or termination date of this Lease; with respect to a proposed subletting of less than the entire premises, the right to terminate this Lease as to the premises proposed to be sublet (and not as to any other part of the premises) on the Effective Date as if it were the expiration or termination date of this Lease;

	(3)	If Landlord exercises any of its options under paragraph 53 (B) (2), Landlord may then Lease the premises, or any portion thereof, to Tenant’s proposed assignee or subtenant, as the case may be, without liability whatsoever to Tenant. If, after any such recapture by Landlord, Landlord actually enters into a valid and binding lease for the premises, or any portion thereof, with the Tenant’s proposed assignee or subtenant, as the case may be, and Tenant employed a licensed real estate broker to procure such proposed tenant. Landlord agrees to pay a commission to such procuring broker of the proposed transaction which initiated Landlord’s right to recapture (which commission shall paid be pursuant to a separate agreement between Landlord and such broker based upon Landlord’s standard commission rates and in accordance with the terms of Landlord’s standard commission agreement based upon the terms of the lease actually entered into between Landlord and such tenant). No broker is a third party beneficiary hereunder.

C.	Subparagraph “A” and “B” of this paragraph 53 to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall have the right to assign this Lease or sublet the entire premises without Landlord’s consent provided that the assignee or sublessee is a corporation which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tenant succeeding to the entire business carried on by Tenant, provided the following conditions are complied with:

	(1)	The assignment or subletting must be, respectively, of all of Tenant’s leasehold interest and of the entire premises and in the case of assignment, shall also transfer to the assignee all of Tenant’s rights in and interest under this Lease including the security, if any, deposited hereunder.

	(2)	At the time of such assignment or subletting this Lease must be in full force and effect without any breach or default thereunder on the part of Tenant continuing beyond the period provided for curing same.

	(3)	The assignment or subletting must be solely for the same purposes and uses permitted by this Lease.

	(4)	The assignee (or sublessee, if the sublease is for a term less than the then remaining term of this Lease) shall assume, by written recordable instrument, in form and content satisfactory to Landlord, the due performance of all of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease, including any accrued obligations at the time of the assignment or subletting.

	(5)	A copy of the assignment or sublease and the original assumption agreement (both in form and content satisfactory to Landlord) fully executed and acknowledged by the assignee together (if a corporation) with a certified copy of a properly executed corporate resolution authorizing such assumption agreement, shall be delivered to Landlord ten (10) days prior to the effective date of such assignment or subletting.

	(6)	Such assignment and/or subletting shall be upon and subject to all the provisions, terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease and Tenant (and any assignee(s) and sublessee(s)) shall continue to be and remain liable thereunder.

	(7)	Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable attorney’s fees for examination of and/or preparation of any documents in connection with such assignment.

	(8)	Subject to the foregoing, Tenant may not effect a transaction the result of which is that this Lease becomes an asset of a person, firm or corporation having no bona fide and ongoing business relationship to Tenant.

D.	Deemed Assignment, Sublet. For the purpose of this paragraph 53:

	(1)	the transfer of more than thirty (30%) percent of any class of capital stock of any corporate tenant or subtenant, or the transfer of more than thirty (30%) percent of the total interest in any other person which is a tenant or subtenant, however accomplished, whether by merger, consolidation, in a single transaction or in a series of related or unrelated transactions, shall be deemed an assignment of this Lease, or of such sublease, as the case may be, provided, however, that the foregoing provisions of this subparagraph (1) shall not be applicable to any corporate tenant whose shares are publicly traded on a nationally recognized exchange;

	(2)	any increase in the amount of issued and/or outstanding shares of capital stock of any corporate Tenant and/or the creation of one or more additional classes of capital stock of any corporate Tenant, whether by merger, or consolidation, in a single transaction or a related series of transactions, with the result that the beneficial and record ownership in and to such tenant shall no longer be identically held in the same proportion by the beneficial and record owners of the capital stock of such corporate Tenant as of the date Tenant executed this Lease shall be deemed an assignment, except for a transfer on or as a result of the death of a shareholder and further provided, however, that the foregoing provisions of this subparagraph (2) shall not be applicable to any corporate tenant whose shares are publicly traded on a nationally recognized exchange.

	(3)	an agreement by any other person, directly or indirectly, to assume Tenant’s obligations under this Lease shall be deemed an assignment.

	(4)	a transfer by operation of law, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of Tenant’s interest in this Lease shall be deemed an assignment; any person to whom Tenant’s interest under this Lease passes by operation of law, or otherwise, shall be bound by the provisions of this paragraph; and

	(5)	each modification, amendment or extension or any sublease to which Landlord has previously consented shall be deemed a new sublease.

		Tenant agrees to furnish to Landlord upon demand at any time such information and assurances as Landlord may reasonably request that neither Tenant, nor any previously permitted subtenant, has violated the provisions of this paragraph. Upon request, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a statement, certified true and correct, showing the names of all existing shareholders of record and their respective ownership interests as of that date.

E.	In the event Landlord shall not exercise its right of recapture as set forth in (B) above, in determining whether to grant consent to Tenant’s sublet or assignment request, Landlord may consider any reasonable factor. Landlord and Tenant agree that lack of any one of the following factors, or any other reasonable factor, will be conclusively deemed reasonable grounds for denying Tenant’s request:

	(1)	financial strength of the proposed subtenant/assignee must be at least equal to that of the existing Tenant;

	(2)	business reputation of the proposed subtenant/assignee must be in accordance with generally acceptable commercial standards;

	(3)	use of the premises by the proposed subtenant/assignee must be substantially identical to the use permitted by this Lease;

	(4)	managerial and operational skills of the proposed subtenant/assignee must be the same as those of the existing Tenant;

	(5)	use of the premises by the proposed subtenant/assignee will not violate or create any potential violation of any laws;

	(6)	use of the premises will not violate any other agreements affecting the premises, Landlord or other Tenants.

	(7)	proposed subtenant/assignee must not presently be a tenant or occupant (or affiliate of either) of the building(s) of which the premises are a part, or of the Heartland Business Center if there is similar available space.

			Landlord may withhold its consent hereunder should Tenant in any way attempt or intend to use this Lease as an asset, for the purpose of subletting the premises or assigning the Lease, as Landlord in its sole discretion may determine.

	F.	If Landlord does not deny Tenant’s request, such consent shall be given subject to and provided Tenant strictly complies with items (1) – (8) of subsection “C” of this paragraph 53.

G.	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in the event of a proposed assignment of this Lease in connection with a bona fide sale of Tenant’s business, as a going concern, (whether accomplished by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or stock transfer) to a purchaser who intends to continue to operate the Tenant’s business at the Premises (and the purpose of the sale is not an attempt to transfer this Lease as an asset of the business), Landlord shall not have the rights set forth in paragraphs B (1) and B (2) above, and provided: (i) Tenant is not in default under any of the terms and conditions of this Lease; (ii) Tenant furnishes Landlord with bona fide financial statements of a certified public accountant for the two years immediately prior to the proposed assignment evidencing that the tangible net worth of the assignee, or a guarantor thereof, is at least equal to the tangible net worth of Tenant at the time of execution of this Lease or the time of the proposed transfer, whichever is greater; and (iii) Tenant furnishes Landlord with a fully executed original assignment of this Lease to, and assumption of this Lease by, the assignee, Landlord’s consent shall not otherwise be required in connection with the assignment contemplated by this subparagraph G.

54.	Consents:

	Subject to paragraph 53 (E), wherever consents are required, such consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided, however, that in the event Landlord’s consent is not given Tenant, in no event, shall be entitled to make, nor shall Tenant make, any claim for, and Tenant hereby expressly waives any claim for money damages; nor shall Tenant claim any money damages by way of setoff, counterclaim or defense, based upon any claim or assertion by Tenant that Landlord has unreasonably withheld any consent; but Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be an action or proceeding to enforce any such provision, or for specific performance, injunction or declaratory judgment. Subject to the damages limitations set forth above in this paragraph, for the purposes of this paragraph 54 only, at Tenant’s election, Landlord and Tenant agree to the use of an expedited arbitration proceeding, consisting of a panel of three arbitrators each arbitrator with at least ten years experience in commercial real estate matters (one arbitrator chosen by each of Landlord and Tenant, and the third arbitrator to be chosen by the other two arbitrators) in Suffolk County, New York, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association applicable to commercial matters in the state of New York for the resolution of the issue of whether Tenant’s request for such consent was unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Successful (as defined in paragraph 52 of this Lease) party in such arbitration proceeding shall be entitled to collect its actual reasonable legal fees for such proceeding from the unsuccessful party.

	55.	Financial Statements:

		Upon request by Landlord, Tenant agrees that it will furnish to Landlord, and to prospective mortgagees of the property, such financial statements as such prospective mortgagee(s) may reasonably request. Tenant also agrees not to take any action which may impair Landlord’s ability to mortgage the building of which the premises form a part. If an institution furnishing or intending to furnish a mortgage on the premises shall require a change or changes in this Lease as a condition of such financing and if Tenant unreasonably refuses to agree thereto, the Landlord may terminate this Lease at any time, provided such changes shall not substantially alter the obligations of the parties each to the other or to impose on the Tenant any conditions more burdensome than as otherwise exists hereunder.

	56.	Indemnification:

		Tenant agrees to and hereby does indemnify and save Landlord and Landlord’s agents harmless from and against any and all suits, actions, damages, costs, judgments, expenses, claims, liabilities and demands, including attorney’s fees, (except to the extent such result from the negligence or misconduct of Landlord, its agents or employees) for, or in connection with, any accident, loss of life, injury or damage whatsoever caused to any person or property arising, directly or indirectly, from or out of any occurrence, the business conducted or the services provided in the premises or any part thereof, or occurring in, upon, at, on or about the premises, or any part thereof, or on the sidewalks adjoining the same, or in any parking area, loading area, or any common area of or surrounding the premises, or arising directly or indirectly, or occasioned wholly or in part by or from any act or omission of Tenant or any concessionaire or subtenant, or their respective licensees, servants, agents, employees or contractors, and from and against any and all damages, costs, expenses, judgments, and liabilities incurred in connection with any such claim or proceeding brought thereon, including reasonable attorney’s fees. This indemnification by Tenant shall also include any costs, expenses and damages which Landlord does or may incur in enforcing this indemnification. The indemnification provided for in this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Lease.

57.	Landlord’s Liability:

	It is specifically understood and agreed that there shall be no personal liability on Landlord in respect to any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease. In the event of a breach or default by Landlord of any of its obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall look solely to the equity of Landlord in the demised premises for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies and Tenant shall have no right of lien, levy, execution or other enforcement proceedings against any other property or assets of Landlord or the principals thereof.

58.	Condemnation:

	A.	If twenty-five (25%) percent or more of the building shall be taken for any public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, then Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right to terminate this Lease on thirty (30) days written notice to the other given within sixty (60) days after the date of such taking.

	B.	If any part of the building shall be so taken and this Lease shall not terminate or be terminated under the provisions of paragraph “A” hereof, then the annual Base Rent shall be equitably apportioned according to the floor space so taken and Landlord shall make all necessary repairs or alterations to the premises so as to constitute that portion of the building and other improvements on the premises not taken a complete architectural unit and/or as nearly similar in character as practicable to what they were before the taking.

	C.	All compensation awarded or paid upon such a total or partial taking of the premises shall belong to and be the property of Landlord without any participation by Tenant; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude Tenant from prosecuting any claim directly against the condemning authority in such condemnation proceedings for loss of business, and/or depreciation to, damage to and/or cost of removal of, and/or for the value of stock and/or trade fixtures, furniture and other personal property belonging to Tenant; provided, however that no such claim shall diminish or otherwise adversely affect Landlord’s award(s) or the holder(s) of any and all mortgages affecting the premises. In no event shall Tenant make any claim for the value of the unexpired term of this Lease.

59.	Building Operation:

	A.	Landlord shall not be responsible or liable to Tenant for any loss or damage that may be occasioned by the acts or omissions of persons occupying any space adjacent to or adjoining the premises, or any part thereof, or for any loss or damage resulting to Tenant or its property from water, gas, steam, fire, or the bursting, stoppage or leaking of sewer pipes, provided that such loss or damage is not occasioned by the negligence of Landlord.

	B.	Tenant shall permit Landlord or its designees to erect, use, maintain and repair pipes, cables, plumbing, vents and wires, in, to and through the building and/or the premises as and to the extent that Landlord may now or hereafter deem to be necessary or appropriate for the proper operation and maintenance of the building or any other portion of the premises. All such work shall be done, so far as practicable, in such manner as to avoid unreasonable interference with Tenant’s use of the premises but shall not be considered a constructive eviction.

	60.	Pollution Indemnification:

		Tenant agrees that no part of the premises will be used in any way for, and Tenant shall not suffer, permit or allow the use of the premises or any part thereof, either directly or indirectly, for treatment, preparation, generation, manufacture, use, refining, production, storage, maintenance, handling, transfer, transporting processing, disposal, burial, dispersal, release, or placement of any Hazardous Substance (as hereinafter defined), petroleum products, pollutants or contaminants, and that Tenant shall not release, suffer or permit the release of any Hazardous Substance, petroleum products, pollutants or contaminants onto the premises or into the subsurface thereof or onto any property whatsoever, including without limitation, surface water and ground waters unless in compliance with all applicable law(s), permit(s), order(s), or other valid governmental approval(s), whether now in effect or hereafter enacted.

		Failure of Tenant to abide by all of the foregoing obligations shall be a default under this Lease which, if not cured within five (5) days of Landlord’s notice, or sooner if an emergency, dangerous, or hazardous condition exists in, at, on, upon or about the premises, shall entitle Landlord to pursue all remedies available in law, at equity and/or under the Lease.

		In addition, Tenant shall indemnify and save Landlord and its successors and assigns and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, partners, agents and employees and the premises and the building of which the premises are part, harmless against any and all claims, obligations, liabilities, violations, penalties, fines, suits, governmental orders, causes of actions, judgments, damages, costs and expenses, whether civil or criminal or both, of any and all kind or nature which result from or are in any way connected with a breach or default by Tenant of the foregoing agreement and/or which the Landlord may be subject in connection with any Hazardous Substance resulting from or in connection with the discharge, despoiler, release or escape of any Hazardous Substance, smoke, vapors, soot, fumes, acids, alkalis, toxic or hazardous chemicals, liquids or gases, volatile organics, waste materials or other irritants, contaminants or pollutants or otherwise at the premises, or caused by or resulting from the use and operation of the premises by Tenant, its successors and assigns and/or by reason of Tenant’s invitees, licensees, employees, officers, agents, servants, etc., in any case whether or not Tenant has complied with its obligations pursuant to this agreement.

2. An Environmental Assessment Form (EAF) will be prepared for each site plan, building permit application, and change of use pertaining to the above-described property and submitted to the designated agency. If the proposed project is determined to be outside the scope of the Generic Environmental Impact Statement on file for the above-described property or portions thereof, then further environmental review may be required by the designated agency pursuant to Environmental Conservation Law, §§8-0101, et. seq.

3. Declarant further recognizes and acknowledges the applicability of the Suffolk County Sanitary Code, rules, regulations, and standards promulgated thereunder to the actions of the Declarant, its successors and/or assigns in the development of said property or portions thereof.
