In any instance when Sublandlord’s consent or approval is required under this Sublease, Sublandlord’s refusal to consent to or approve any matter shall be deemed reasonable if such consent or approval has not been obtained from the landlord under the Main Lease. If Subtenant shall seek the approval by or consent of Sublandlord, or the landlord under the Main Lease, and Sublandlord, or the landlord under the Main Lease, shall fail or refuse to give such consent or approval, Subtenant shall not be entitled to any damages for any withholding or delay of such approval or consent by Sublandlord or the landlord under the Main Lease, absent a showing of bad faith, it being intended that Subtenant’s sole remedy shall be an action for injunction or specific performance and that said remedy of an action for injunction or specific performance shall be available (subject to other applicable provisions of this Lease) only in those cases where Sublandlord, or the landlord under the Main Lease, shall have expressly agreed in writing not to unreasonably withhold or delay its consent.

17. Brokerage. Subtenant and Sublandlord each represent to the other that no broker, other than Newmark Knight Frank and Studley, Inc. (collectively, the “Broker”), or other person had any part, or was instrumental in any way, in bringing about this Sublease. Subtenant represents to Sublandlord that, except as aforesaid, no broker or other person had any part, or was instrumental in any way, in bringing about this Sublease.

Parking shall be provided to Subtenant in accordance with Article 26 of the Main Lease, as incorporated by reference and modified under Section 3D of this Sublease. Parking spaces are subject to reduction in accordance with the provisions of Articles 19 and 20 of this Sublease.

19. Phased Subleased Premises Reduction; Subleased Premises Sharing Option.

A. Attached hereto as Exhibit C is a floorplan of the Subleased Premises which has been marked to show the Subleased Premises divided into two physical spaces captioned “Space B” and “Space C” respectively. For purposes of this Article 19, the Original Sublease Premises are deemed to have an area of 12,441 usable square feet.

B. Effective as of November 15, 2006 (the “Space B Reduction Date”), the Subleased Premises shall be reduced by the deletion of the portion of the Subleased Premises marked “Space B” from this Sublease in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 19. Effective as of such Space B Reduction Date, the Fixed Rent, the Subtenant’s Share and the number of parking spaces under this Sublease shall be reduced proportionately based on the ratio that the aggregate usable square footage of Space C bears to the aggregate usable square footage of the entire Subleased Premises as then constituted and, effective as of the Space B Reduction Date, all references to the Subleased Premises shall mean, subject to the provisions of Article 20 hereof, Space C only. Subtenant shall surrender Space B to Sublandlord as if the Space B Reduction Date were the Expiration Date hereunder. On or before the Space B Reduction Date, Sublandlord, shall, at Sublandlord’s sole cost and expense, legally demise and

separate Space B from Space C by the installation of a demising wall at the location identified on the floorplan annexed hereto as Exhibit C. Any Fixed Rent or additional rent prepaid by Tenant with respect to Space B for any period following the Space B Reduction Date shall be credited against the next installments of Fixed Rent payable by Subtenant under this Sublease. If requested by Sublandlord, the parties shall confirm in writing, as soon as practicable following the Space B Reduction Date, the reduction of the Subleased Premises, the changes in the Fixed Rent, Subtenant’s Share, parking spaces, and such other terms as shall be modified as a result thereof.

C. In addition to the foregoing, Sublandlord may enter into a license with Subtenant at any time prior to November 15, 2006 for all or a portion of the area of Space B marked on Exhibit C as the “Interim License Area” on the terms set forth in this Section 19C. If Sublandlord desires to use all or a portion of the Interim License Area in accordance with the provisions of this Section 19C, Sublandlord will first consult with Subtenant as to the precise location of such Interim License Area in order to accommodate the needs of both Sublandlord and Subtenant. Thereafter, Sublandlord may deliver a formal notice to Subtenant designating the portion or portions of the Interim License Area proposed to be used by Sublandlord, and designating a date (which will not be earlier than the fifth (5th) business day following the delivery of such notice) upon which Sublandlord’s interim license will commence (the “Interim License Commencement Date”). If Sublandlord has delivered that notice to Subtenant then, effective as of the Interim License Commencement Date, Subtenant will make available to Sublandlord the portion or portions of the Interim License Area designated by Sublandlord in the notice, as well as all standard office furniture, furnishings, storage drawers, cabinets, closets, outlets, electrical and data/telecommunications connection points located in such portion(s) of the Interim License Area. Effective on the Interim License Commencement Date, the Fixed Rent and the Subtenant’s Share shall be reduced proportionately based on the ratio that the aggregate usable square footage of the remaining portions of the Subleased Premises bear to the aggregate usable square footage of the Original Subleased Premises. The parking spaces allocable to Subtenant, however, shall not be reduced prior to November 15, 2006. There shall be no requirement to demise the Interim License Area from the balance of the Subleased Premises, except that Sublandlord may decide, at Sublandlord’s sole cost and expense, to install a temporary pressure wall and/or one or more movable full-height or partial-height partitions to provide a measure of privacy to both parties. Any Fixed Rent or additional rent prepaid by Subtenant with respect to the Interim License Area for any period following the Interim License Commencement Date shall be credited against the next installments of Fixed Rent payable by Subtenant under this Sublease. If requested by Sublandlord, the parties shall confirm in writing, as soon as practicable following the Interim License Commencement Date, the licensing by Sublandlord of the Interim License Area, and any changes in the Fixed Rent, Subtenant’s Share, parking spaces and such other terms as shall be modified as a result thereof.

20. Sublease Premises Reduction Opportunity.

A. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is a floorplan of the Sublease Premises initially subleased to Subtenant (referred to elsewhere in this Sublease as the “Sublease Premises” and referred to in this Article 20 as the “Original Sublease Premises”). For purposes of this Article 20, the Original Sublease Premises are deemed to have an area of 12,441 usable square feet.

 

7


B. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Sublease, Subtenant shall have the opportunity to propose for Sublandlord’s approval, one or more times during the term of this Sublease (the “Sublease Premises Reduction Opportunity”), the exclusion of any portion of the Original Sublease Premises from this Sublease on the terms and conditions set forth in this Article 20. The portion of the Original Subleased Premises proposed to be excluded by Subtenant shall be, in Sublandlord’s sole opinion, a commercially rentable unit configured in a manner acceptable to Sublandlord.

C. Provided that no default is then continuing, Subtenant may exercise the Sublease Premises Reduction Opportunity one or more times, but not more often than once every six (6) months, during the period commencing on the Commencement Date and expiring on December 31, 2007, by delivering written notice of Subtenant’s proposed exclusion (the “Reduction Proposal Notice”) identifying on a dimensioned floorplan drawn to scale the portion of the Sublease Premises proposed to be excluded from the Original Subleased Premises (the “Excluded Premises”). (The Original Subleased Premises less the aggregate of the Excluded Premises from time to time is sometimes referred to herein as the “Retained Premises”). Within ten (10) days following Sublandlord’s receipt of the Reduction Proposal Notice, Sublandlord shall notify Subtenant (i) whether it objects to said reduction of the Original Subleased Premises, and/or (ii) whether Sublandlord objects to the proposed configuration of the Excluded Premises (and, if Sublandlord shall object to said configuration, Subtenant shall promptly reconfigure the Excluded Premises in a manner reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord and deliver a substituted floorplan to Sublandlord showing the Excluded Premises as reconfigured by Subtenant). Sublandlord’s failure to notify Subtenant within such ten (10) day period shall be deemed to be an objection to the proposed reduction. The parties hereto agree that Sublandlord shall have the unqualified right to object to the reduction proposal set forth in the Reduction Proposal Notice. In such event, Subtenant may not reduce the Subleased Premises, and this Sublease shall continue to be in full force and effect without giving effect to Subtenant’s reduction proposal.

D. If Sublandlord shall approve the proposed reduction in the Subleased Premises and the configuration of such the Excluded Premises then, from and after the Subleased Premises Reduction Date (as defined below) the Fixed Rent, the Subtenant’s Share and the number of parking spaces under this Sublease shall be reduced proportionately based on the ratio that the aggregate usable square footage of the Retained Sublease Premises bears to the aggregate usable square footage of the Original Subleased Premises. In this Sublease, the term “Sublease Premises Reduction Date” shall mean the first (1st) day, if any, which occurs not earlier than thirty (30) days after delivery of the Reduction Proposal Notice, and which is the first (1st) day of a calendar month.

E. If required by Sublandlord, Subtenant shall, at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense, legally demise and separate the Retained Sublease Premises from the balance of the Excluded Sublease Premises on or before the Subleased Premises Reduction Date as an Alteration under Article 15 of this Sublease in accordance with, and subject to, all terms and conditions set forth therein.

F. If the Subleased Premises are reduced pursuant to this Article 20, any Fixed Rent or additional rent prepaid by Tenant with respect to the Excluded Sublease Premises for any period following the Subleased Premises Reduction Date shall be credited against the next installments of Fixed Rent payable by Subtenant under this Sublease.

 

8


G. If requested by Sublandlord, the parties shall confirm in writing, as soon as practicable following the Subleased Premises Reduction Date, the reduction of the Subleased Premises, the changes in the Fixed Rent, Subtenant’s Share and such other terms as shall be modified as a result thereof.

21. Shared Rooms; Confidentiality.

A. Sublandlord and Subtenant shall share the use of the kitchen/pantry, lunch room and server/telecommunications rooms (collectively, the “Shared Rooms”) identified on Exhibit C of this Lease during the Term of this Sublease. Subtenant shall observe, and instruct its employees to observe, all rules reasonably promulgated by Sublandlord with respect to the Shared Rooms. The cost of all rents and additional rents, and the cost of all supply, routine maintenance and cleaning costs attributable to the use of the shared rooms shall be equally allocated by the parties (and, to the extent the same shall be payable by Subtenant, Subtenant’s share of such costs shall be deemed to be additional rent under this Sublease).

B. Due to the close proximity of the parties’ office areas and, under certain circumstances, the shared use of certain portions of the Subleased Premises, each of the parties hereto shall, during the term of this Sublease and at all times thereafter, maintain in confidence all confidential and proprietary information and data of a party which is disclosed or made available (whether intentionally or inadvertently) to the other party (the “Confidential Information”). Each party shall take all reasonable measures necessary to prevent any unauthorized disclosure of the Confidential Information by any of their employees, agents or consultants. Nothing herein shall prevent either party, or any employee, agent or consultant of a party from disclosing any Confidential Information which: (i) becomes publicly available without default under this Sublease; (ii) is lawfully acquired by such party or such person in question from a source not under any obligation regarding disclosure of such information; or (c) such party or person is required by law to disclose the Confidential Information, in which event, the party or person in question shall use reasonable efforts, if legally permitted, to give notice to the other party prior to disclosure.

22. Subtenant’s Cancellation Option Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Subtenant shall have the right, provided Subtenant is not in default under this Lease as of the giving of the Termination Notice or as of the Termination Date, to terminate this Sublease effective as of the last day of any month (the “Termination Date”) in which occurs the sixtieth (60th) day next following the date upon which Tenant delivers a notice (“Termination Notice”) to Sublandlord unequivocally and irrevocably electing to terminate this Sublease. The Term of this Sublease shall end effective as of the Termination Date, as though the same were the Expiration Date originally fixed hereunder; and, effective as of such Termination Date, Tenant shall surrender and deliver up the Premises to Sublandlord.

23. Complete Agreement; Execution in Counterparts. There are no representations, agreements, arrangements or understandings, oral or written, between the parties relating to the subject matter of this Sublease which are not fully expressed in this Sublease. This Sublease

 

9


cannot be changed or terminated orally or in any manner other than by a written agreement executed by both parties. This Sublease may be executed in multiple counterparts, all of which, when taken together, shall constitute a single instrument.

24. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Sublease, except as herein otherwise specifically provided, shall extend to, bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective personal representatives, heirs, successors and permitted assigns.

25. Sublandlord’s Liability. Sublandlord, its partners, officers, directors, shareholders and principals, disclosed or undisclosed, shall have no personal liability under this Sublease. Subtenant shall look only to Sublandlord’s estate and property in the Main Lease (or the proceeds thereof) for the satisfaction of Subtenant’s remedies for the collection of a judgment (or other judicial process) requiring the payment of money by Sublandlord in the event of any default by Sublandlord hereunder, and no other property or assets of Sublandlord or its partners, officers, directors, shareholders or principals, disclosed or undisclosed, shall be subject to lien, levy, execution or other enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of Subtenant’s remedies under or with respect to this Sublease, the relationship of Sublandlord and Subtenant hereunder or Subtenant’s use or occupancy of the Subleased Premises.

26. Consent of Landlord Under Main Lease; Condition Precedent. This Sublease shall have no effect until (i) the landlord under the Main Lease shall have given its written consent to this Sublease in accordance with the terms of the Main Lease and (ii) Sublandlord shall have entered into a direct lease of Suites 200 and 201 of the Building. If the landlord under the Main Lease does not give its consent to this Sublease for any reason, or if Sublandlord shall not enter into a lease of Suites 200 and 201 for any reason, on or before the 60th day following the date of this Sublease, this Sublease shall be deemed null and void and of no effect. Sublandlord and Subtenant shall each pay one-half of the legal fees and expenses assessed by the landlord under the Main Lease in connection with its review of this Sublease and the granting of its consent thereto.

27. Cash Security Deposit. Subtenant has deposited with Sublandlord the sum of Seventeen Thousand Four Hundred Thirty and 15/100 Dollars ($17,430.15), as partial security for the full and timely performance by Subtenant of all the terms covenants and conditions of this Sublease on Subtenant’s part to be performed. Sublandlord shall have the right, with ten (10) business days prior written notice to Subtenant and Subtenant’s failure to cure with such period, and regardless of the exercise of any other remedy Sublandlord may have by reason of Subtenant’s default, to apply any part of the security to cure any default of Subtenant, and, if Sublandlord does so, Subtenant shall upon demand deposit with Sublandlord the amount so applied so that Sublandlord shall have on deposit the full amount of the security at all times during the term of this Sublease. If Subtenant shall fail to make such deposit, Sublandlord shall have the same remedies for such failure as Sublandlord has for a default in the payment of the Fixed Rent. In the event of an assignment or transfer of Sublandlord’s leasehold estate under the Main Lease (i) Sublandlord shall have the right to transfer the security to the assignee, (ii) Sublandlord shall thereupon be automatically released by Subtenant from all liability for the return of the security and (iii) Subtenant shall look solely to the assignee for the return of the security, and the foregoing provisions of this sentence shall apply to every transfer made of the security to a new assignee of Sublandlord’s interest in the Main Lease. Upon the expiration of

the term of this Sublease, subject to the provisions of this Section, Sublandlord shall pay to Subtenant the balance of any security and accrued interest remaining in such account (less any sums which Sublandlord is permitted by law to retain, which Sublandlord may withdraw and retain annually).
