If for any reason Landlord does not deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on the Commencement Date, and such failure is not caused by an act or omission of Tenant, the Expiration Date shall be extended by the number of days the Commencement Date has been delayed and the validity of this Lease shall not be impaired nor shall Landlord be subject to any liability for such failure; but Rent shall be abated until delivery of Page 2 possession. Provided, however, if the Commencement Date has been delayed by an act or omission of Tenant then Rent shall not be abated until delivery of possession and the Expiration Date shall not be extended. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if Landlord has not delivered the Premises to Tenant, with all of Landlord's Work substantially complete, on or before August 1, 2005, for any reason other than delays caused by Tenant and force majeure, then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for any holdover rent that Tenant's current landlord charges Tenant and that Tenant actually pays for not vacating Tenant's current space up and until Landlord delivers possession. Delivery of possession shall be deemed to occur on the earlier of the date Landlord receives a Certificate of Occupancy or upon substantial completion of the Premises (as certified by Landlord's architect) but not earlier than April 1, 2005. If Landlord permits Tenant to enter into possession of the Premises before the Commencement Date, such possession shall be subject to the provisions of this Lease, including, without limitation, the payment of Rent (unless otherwise agreed in writing). Following the full execution of the Lease and Landlord's receipt of Certificates of Insurance evidencing coverage as required under the Lease, Tenant shall be entitled to enter the Premises prior to the Commencement Date solely for the purpose of installing its wiring, trade fixtures, equipment and personal property therein (provided however, such installation activities shall not interfere with the completion of Landlord's Work.) Within ten (10) days of delivery of possession Landlord shall deliver to Tenant and Tenant shall execute an Acceptance of Premises in which Tenant shall certify, among other things, that (a) Landlord has satisfactorily completed Landlord's Work to the Premises pursuant to Exhibit "D", unless written exception is set forth thereon, and (b) that Tenant accepts the Premises. Tenant's failure to execute and deliver the Acceptance of Premises shall be conclusive evidence, as against Tenant, that Landlord has satisfactorily completed Landlord's Work to the Premises pursuant to Exhibit "D". In the event Tenant fails to take possession of the Premises following execution of this Lease, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord promptly upon demand for all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with entering into this Lease including, but not limited to, broker fees and commissions, sums paid for the preparation of a floor and/or space plan for the Premises, costs incurred in performing Landlord's Work pursuant to Exhibit "D", loss of rental income, attorneys' fees and costs, and any other damages for breach of this Lease established by Landlord. 5. INTENDED USE OF THE PREMISES. The statement in this Lease of the nature of the business to be conducted by Tenant in the Premises does not constitute a representation or guaranty by the Landlord as to the present or future suitability of the Premises for the conduct of such business in the Premises, or that it is lawful or permissible under the Certificate of Occupancy issued for the Building, or is otherwise permitted by law. Tenant's taking possession of the Premises shall be conclusive evidence, as against Tenant, that, at the time such possession was taken, the Premises were satisfactory for Tenant's intended use. 6. RENT. 6.1. Payment of Rent. Tenant shall pay Rent for the Premises. Monthly Installments of Rent shall be payable in advance on the first day of each calendar month of the Term. If the Term begins (or ends) on other than the first (or last) day of a calendar month, Rent for the partial month shall be prorated based on the number of days in that month. Rent shall be paid to Landlord at the Rent Payment Address set forth in Section 2.8., or to such other person at such place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, without any prior demand therefor and without deduction or offset, in lawful money of the United States of America. Tenant shall pay Landlord the first Monthly Installment of Base Rent upon execution of this Lease. 6.2. Adjusted Base Rent. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED. 6.3. Additional Rent for Increases in Tax Costs and Operating Expenses. If, in any calendar year during the Term of this Lease, Landlord's Tax Costs and Operating Expenses (as hereinafter defined) for the Project (hereinafter sometimes together referred to as Direct Costs) shall be higher than in the Base Year specified in Section 2.3., Additional Rent for such Direct Costs payable hereunder shall be increased by an amount equal to Tenant's Proportionate Share of the difference between Landlord's actual Direct Costs for such calendar year and the actual Direct Costs of the Base Year. However, if during any calendar year of the Term the occupancy of the Project is less than ninety-five percent (95%), then Landlord shall make an appropriate adjustment of the variable components of Operating Expenses, as reasonably determined by Landlord, to determine the amount of Operating Expenses that would have been incurred had the Project been ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during that calendar year. This estimated amount shall be deemed the amount of Operating Expenses for that calendar year. For purposes hereof, "variable components' shall include only those Operating Expenses that are affected by variations in occupancy levels. 6.3.1. Definitions. As used in this Section 6.3.1., the following terms shall have the following meanings: 6.3.1.1. Tax Costs shall mean any and all real estate taxes, other similar charges on real property or improvements, assessments, water and sewer charges and all other charges (but in no event Landlord's income or estate taxes) assessed, levied, imposed or becoming a lien upon part or all of the Project or the appurtenances thereto, or Page 3 attributable thereto, or on the rents, issues, profits or income received or derived therefrom which may be imposed, levied, assessed or charged by the United States or the State, County or City in which the Project is located, or any other local government authority Agency or political subdivision thereof. Tax Costs for each tax year shall be apportioned to determine the Tax Costs for the subject calendar years. Landlord at Landlord's sole discretion, may contest any taxes levied or assessed against the Building or Project during the Term. If Landlord contests any taxes levied or assessed during the Term, Tenant shall pay Landlord Tenant's Proportionate Share of all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the contest. 6.3.1.2. Operating Expenses shall mean any and all expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with the management, maintenance, operation, and repair of the Project, the equipment, adjacent walks, Common Area, parking areas, the roof, landscaped areas, including, but not limited to, salaries, wages, benefits, pension payments, payroll taxes, worker's compensation, and other costs related to employees engaged in the management, operation, maintenance and/or repair of the Project; any and all assessments or costs incurred with respect to Covenants, Conditions and/or Restrictions, Reciprocal Easement Agreements or similar documents affecting the Building or Project, if any; the cost of all charges to Landlord for electricity, natural gas, air conditioning, steam, water, and other utilities furnished to the Project including any taxes thereon; reasonable attorneys' fees and/or consultant fees incurred by Landlord in contracting with a company or companies to provide electricity (or any other utility) to the Project, any fees for the installation, maintenance, repair or removal of related equipment, and any exit fees or stranded cost charges mandated by the State; the cost and expense for third-party consultants, accountants and attorneys; a management fee not greater than five percent (5%) of the gross Base Rent and Additional Rent received for the project; energy studies and the amortized cost of any energy or other cost saving equipment used by Landlord to provide services pursuant to the terms of the Lease (including the amortized cost to upgrade the efficiency or capacity of Building telecommunication lines and systems if responsibility therefor is assumed by Landlord as discussed in Section 35. hereof); reasonable reserves for replacements as may be customary in the geographic area in which the Project is located; the cost of license fees related to the Project; the cost of all charges for property (all risk), liability, rent loss and all other insurance for the Project to the extent that such insurance is required to be carried by Landlord under any lease, mortgage or deed of trust covering the whole or a substantial part of the Project or the Building, or, if not required under any such lease, mortgage or deed of trust, then to the extent such insurance is carried by owners of properties comparable to the Project; the cost of all building and cleaning supplies and materials; the cost of all charges for security services, cleaning, maintenance and service contracts and other services with independent contractors, including but not limited to the maintenance, operation and repair of all electrical, plumbing and mechanical systems of the Project and maintenance, repair and replacement of any intra-building cabling network ("ICN"); and the cost of any janitorial, utility or other services to be provided by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following shall not be included within Operating Expenses: (i) costs of capital improvements, including to the roof and foundation (except any improvements that might be deemed "capital improvements" related to the enhancement or upgrade of the ICN and related equipment) and costs of curing design or construction defects; (ii) depreciation; (iii) interest and principal payments on mortgages and other debt costs and ground lease payments, if any, and any penalties assessed as a result of Landlord's late payments of such amounts; (iv) real estate broker leasing commissions or compensation; (v) any cost or expenditure (or portion thereof) for which Landlord is reimbursed, whether by insurance proceeds or otherwise; (vi) attorneys' fees, costs, disbursements, advertising and marketing and other expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation of leases with prospective tenants of the Building; (vii) rent for space which is not actually used by Landlord in connection with the management and operation of the Building; (viii) all costs or expenses (including fines, penalties and legal fees) incurred due to the violation by Landlord, its employees, agents, contractors or assigns of the terms and conditions of the Lease, or any valid, applicable building code, governmental rule, regulation or law; (ix) except for the referenced management compensation, any overhead or profit increments to any subsidiary or affiliate of Landlord for services on or to the Building, to the extent that the costs of such services exceed competitive costs for such services; (x) the cost of constructing tenant improvements for Tenant or any other tenant of the Building or Project; (xi) Operating Expenses specially charged to and paid by any other tenant of the Building or Project; (xii) the cost of special services, goods or materials provided to any other tenant of the Building or Project (xiii) any cost incurred by Landlord to test, survey, clean up, contain, abate, remove or otherwise remedy any Hazardous Materials not caused or brought into the Building by Tenant or any of Tenant's agents, assigns or invitees (as defined in Section 9.6 herein) which was in violation of applicable laws at time of introduction; (xiv) costs incurred by Landlord to rectify any violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (including amendments) which violation is in effect on the date hereof; (xv) other than specifically with respect to Building operations, Page 4 costs relating to maintaining Landlord's existence, either as a corporation, partnership, or other entity such as trustee's fees, annual fees, partnership or organization or administration expenses and deed recordation expenses. 6.4. Determination and Payment of Tax Costs and Operating Expenses. 6.4.1. On or before the last day of each December during the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a written statement showing in reasonable detail Landlord's projected Direct Costs for the succeeding calendar year. If such statement of projected Direct Costs indicates the Direct Costs will be higher than in the Base Year, then the Rent due from Tenant hereunder for the next succeeding year shall be increased by an amount equal to Tenant's Proportionate Share of the difference between the projected Direct Costs for the calendar year and the Base Year. If during the course of the calendar year Landlord determines that actual Direct Costs will vary from its estimate by more than five percent (5%), Landlord may deliver to Tenant a written statement showing Landlord's revised estimate of Direct Costs. On the next payment date for Monthly Installments of Rent following Tenant's receipt of either such statement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional amount equal to such monthly Rent increase adjustment (as set forth on Landlord's statement). Thereafter, the monthly Rent adjustment payments becoming due shall be in the amount set forth in such projected Rent adjustment statement from Landlord. Neither Landlord's failure to deliver nor late delivery of such statement shall constitute a default by Landlord or a waiver of Landlord's right to any Rent adjustment provided for herein. 6.4.2. On or before the first day of each April during the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a written statement of reconciliation (the Reconciliation) showing in reasonable detail Landlord's actual Direct Costs for the prior year, together with a full statement of any adjustments necessary to reconcile any sums paid as estimated Rent adjustments during the prior year with those sums actually payable for such prior year. In the event such Reconciliation shows that additional sums are due from Tenant, Tenant shall pay such sums to Landlord within thirty (30) days of receipt of such Reconciliation. In the event such Reconciliation shows that a credit is due Tenant, such credit shall be credited against the sums next becoming due from Tenant, unless this Lease has expired or been terminated pursuant to the terms hereof (and all sums due Landlord have been paid), in which event such sums shall be refunded to Tenant. Neither Landlord's failure to deliver nor late delivery of such Reconciliation to Tenant by April first shall constitute a default by Landlord or operate as a waiver of Landlord's right to collect all Rent due hereunder. 6.4.3. So long as Tenant is not in default under the terms of the Lease and provided Notice of Tenant's request is given to Landlord within thirty (30) days after Tenant's receipt of the Reconciliation, Tenant may inspect Landlord's Reconciliation accounting records relating to Direct Costs at Landlord's corporate office, during normal business hours, for the purpose of verifying the charges contained in such statement. The audit must be completed within sixty (60) days of Landlord's receipt of Tenant's Notice, unless such period is extended by Landlord (in Landlord's reasonable discretion). Before conducting any audit however, Tenant must pay in full the amount of Direct Costs billed. Tenant may only review those records that specifically relate to Direct Costs. Tenant may not review any other leases or Landlord's tax returns or financial statements. In conducting an audit, Tenant must utilize an independent certified public accountant experienced in auditing records related to commercial property operations. The proposed accountant is subject to Landlord's reasonable prior approval. The audit shall be conducted in accordance with generally accepted rules of auditing practices. Tenant may not conduct an audit more often than once each calendar year. Tenant may audit records relating to a calendar year only one time. No audit shall cover a period of time other than the calendar year from which Landlord's Reconciliation was generated. Upon receipt thereof, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of the audit report and all accompanying data. Tenant and Tenant's auditor shall keep confidential any agreements involving the rights provided in this section and the results of any audit conducted hereunder. As a condition precedent to Tenant's right to conduct an audit, Tenant's auditor shall sign a confidentiality agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord. However, Tenant shall be permitted to furnish information to its attorneys, accountants and auditors to the extent necessary to perform their respective services for Tenant. In the event Tenant's audit of Landlord's books and records reveals an error in Landlord's computation of Direct Costs such that Direct Costs for the Building for the year in question were overstated in an amount greater than five percent (5%) Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for the reasonable costs expended by Tenant in performing such audit, excluding travel expenses. If such audit reveals that Landlord has over-charged Tenant, then Landlord shall promptly reimburse to Tenant the amount of such over-charge. 6.5. Definition of Rent. All costs and expenses other than Base Rent, that Tenant assumes or agrees or is obligated to pay to Landlord under this Lease shall be deemed Additional Rent (which, together with the Base Rent, is sometimes referred to as Rent). 6.6. Taxes on Tenant's Use and Occupancy. In addition to the Rent and any other charges to be paid by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay Landlord upon demand for any and all taxes payable by Landlord (other than net income taxes) which are not otherwise reimbursable under this Lease, whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of the parties, where such taxes are upon, measured by or reasonably attributable to (a) the cost or value of Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property located in the Premises, or the cost or value of any leasehold improvements made in or to the Page 5 Premises by or for Tenant, other than Building Standard Tenant Improvements made by Landlord, regardless of whether title to such improvements is held by Tenant or Landlord; (b) the gross or net Rent payable under this Lease, including, without limitation, any rental or gross receipts tax levied by any taxing authority with respect to the receipt of the Rent hereunder; (c) the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion thereof; or (d) this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises. If it becomes unlawful for Tenant to reimburse Landlord for any costs as required under this Lease, the Base Rent shall be revised to net Landlord the same net Rent after imposition of any tax or other charge upon Landlord as would have been payable to Landlord but for the reimbursement being unlawful. 7. LATE CHARGES. If Tenant fails to pay when due any Rent or other amounts or charges which Tenant is obligated to pay under the terms of this Lease, then Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of each such installment if any such installment is not received by Landlord within five (5) days from the date it is due. Tenant acknowledges that the late payment of any Rent will cause Landlord to lose the use of that money and incur costs and expenses not contemplated under this Lease including, without limitation, administrative costs and processing and accounting expenses, the exact amount of which is extremely difficult to ascertain. Landlord and Tenant agree that this late charge represents a reasonable estimate of such costs and expenses and is fair compensation to Landlord for the loss suffered as a result of such late payment by Tenant. However, the late charge is not intended to cover Landlord's attorneys' fees and costs relating to delinquent Rent. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to such late payment by nor prevent Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies available to Landlord under this Lease. Late charges are deemed Additional Rent. In no event shall this provision for the imposition of a late charge be deemed to grant to Tenant a grace period or an extension of time within which to pay any Rent due hereunder or prevent Landlord from exercising any right or remedy available to Landlord upon Tenant's failure to pay such Rent when due. 8. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant agrees to deposit with Landlord a Security Deposit in the amount set forth in Section 2.16. as security for Tenant's performance of its obligations under this Lease. Landlord and Tenant agree that the Security Deposit may be commingled with funds of Landlord and Landlord shall have no obligation or liability for payment of interest on such deposit. Tenant shall not mortgage, assign, transfer or encumber the Security Deposit without the prior written consent of Landlord and any attempt by Tenant to do so shall be void, without force or effect and shall not be binding upon Landlord. If Tenant fails to timely pay any Rent or other amount due under this Lease, or fails to perform any of the terms hereof, Landlord may, at its option and without prejudice to any other remedy which Landlord may have, appropriate and apply or use all or any portion of the Security Deposit for Rent payments or any other amount then due and unpaid, for payment of any amount for which Landlord has become obligated as a result of Tenant's default or breach, and for any loss or damage sustained by Landlord as a result of Tenant's default or breach. If Landlord so uses any of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days after written demand therefor, restore the Security Deposit to the full amount originally deposited. Tenant's failure to do so shall constitute an act of default hereunder and Landlord shall have the right to exercise any remedy provided for in Section 19 hereof. If Tenant defaults under this Lease more than two (2) times during any calendar year, irrespective of whether such default is cured, then, without limiting Landlord's other rights and remedies, Landlord may, in Landlord's sole discretion, modify the amount of the required Security Deposit. Within ten (10) business days after Notice of such modification, Tenant shall submit to Landlord the required additional sums. Tenant's failure to do so shall constitute an act of default, and Landlord shall have the right to exercise any remedy provided for in Section 19 hereof. If Tenant complies with all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, and Tenant is not in default on any of its obligations hereunder, then upon the earlier of (i) thirty (30) days from the Expiration Date or (ii) within the time period statutorily prescribed after Tenant vacates the Premises, Landlord shall return to Tenant (or, at Landlord's option, to the last subtenant or assignee of Tenant's interest hereunder) the Security Deposit less any expenditures made by Landlord to repair damages to the Premises caused by Tenant and to clean the Premises upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 9.

If in Landlord's opinion, such repairs to the Premises or portion of the Building necessary for Tenant's occupancy cannot be completed under applicable laws and regulations within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date a permit for such construction is issued by the governing authority, Landlord may elect, upon Notice to Tenant given within thirty (30) days after the date of such fire or other casualty, to repair such damage, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but Rent shall be partially abated as provided in this Section 1. If Landlord does not so elect to make such repairs, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such fire or other casualty. 16.3. Repair Outside Premises. If any other portion of the Building or Project is totally destroyed or damaged to the extent that in Landlord's opinion repair thereof cannot be completed under applicable laws and regulations within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date a permit for such construction is issued by the governing authority, Landlord may elect upon Notice to Tenant given within thirty (30) days after the date of such fire or other casualty, to repair such damage, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but Rent shall be partially abated as provided in this Section 16. If Landlord does not elect to make such repairs, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such fire or other casualty. 16.4. Tenant Repair. If the Premises are to be repaired under this Section 16., Landlord shall repair at its cost any injury or damage to the Building and Building Standard Tenant Improvements, if any. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Landlord shall not be obligated to perform work other than Landlord's Work performed previously pursuant to Section 12.1. hereof. Tenant shall be responsible at its sole cost and expense for the repair, restoration and replacement of any other Leasehold Improvements and Tenant's Property (as well as reconstructing and reconnecting Tenant's internal telecommunications wiring and related equipment). Landlord shall not be liable for any loss of business, inconvenience or annoyance arising from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises, Building or Project as a result of any damage from fire or other casualty. 16.5. Election Not to Perform Landlord's Work. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall provide Notice to Tenant of its intent to repair or replace the Premises (if Landlord elects to perform such work), and, within ten (10) days of its receipt of such Notice, Tenant shall provide Notice to Landlord of its intent to reoccupy the Premises. Should Tenant fail to provide such Notice to Landlord, then such failure shall be deemed an election by Tenant not to re-occupy the Premises and Landlord may elect not to perform the repair or replacement of the Premises. Such election shall not result in a termination of this Lease and all obligations of Tenant hereunder shall remain in full force and effect, including the obligation to pay Rent. 16.6. Express Agreement. This Lease shall be considered an express agreement governing any case of damage to or destruction of the Premises, Building or Project by fire or other casualty, and any present or future law which purports to govern the rights of Landlord and Tenant in such circumstances in the absence of an express agreement shall have no application. 17. EMINENT DOMAIN. 17.1. Whole Taking. If the whole of the Building or Premises is lawfully taken by condemnation or in any other manner for any public or quasi-public purpose, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such taking, and Rent shall be prorated to such date. 17.2. Partial Taking. If less than the whole of the Building or Premises is so taken, this Lease shall be unaffected by such taking, provided that (a) Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by Notice to Landlord given within ninety (90) days after the date of such taking if twenty percent (20%) or more of the Premises is taken and the remaining area of the Premises is not reasonably sufficient for Tenant to continue operation of its business, and (b) Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by Notice to Tenant given within ninety (90) days after the date of such taking. If either Landlord or Tenant so elects to terminate this Lease, the Lease shall terminate on the thirtieth (30th) calendar day after either such Notice. Rent shall be prorated to the date of termination. If this Lease continues in force upon such partial taking, Base Rent and Tenant's Proportionate Share shall be equitably adjusted. 17.3. Proceeds. In the event of any taking, partial or whole, all of the proceeds of any award, judgment or settlement payable by the condemning authority shall be the exclusive property of Landlord, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all of its right, title and interest in any award, judgment or settlement from the condemning authority; however, Tenant shall have the right, to the extent that Landlord's award is not reduced or prejudiced, to claim from the condemning authority (but not from Landlord) such compensation as may be recoverable by Tenant in its own right for relocation expenses and damage to Tenant's Property and damage to Leasehold Improvements installed at the sole expense of Tenant. 17.4. Landlord's Restoration. In the event of a partial taking of the Premises which does not result in a termination of this Lease, Landlord shall restore the remaining portion of the Premises as nearly as practicable to its condition prior to the condemnation or taking; provided however, Landlord shall not be Page 13 obligated to perform work other than Landlord's Work performed previously pursuant to Section 12.1. hereof. Tenant shall be responsible at its sole cost and expense for the repair, restoration and replacement of Tenant's Property and any other Leasehold Improvements. 18. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. No assignment of this Lease or sublease of all or any part of the Premises shall be permitted, except as provided in this Section 18. 18.1. No Assignment or Subletting. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, assign or hypothecate this Lease or any interest herein or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use of the Premises or any part thereof by any party other than Tenant. Any of the foregoing acts without such consent shall be voidable and shall, at the option of Landlord, constitute a default hereunder. This Lease shall not, nor shall any interest of Tenant herein, be assignable by operation of law without the prior written consent of Landlord. 18.1.1. For purposes of this Section 18., the following shall be deemed an assignment: 18.1.1.1. If Tenant is a partnership, any withdrawal or substitution (whether voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, and whether occurring at one time or over a period of time) of any partner(s) owning twenty-five (25%) or more (cumulatively) of any interest in the capital or profits of the partnership, or the dissolution of the partnership; 18.1.1.2. If Tenant is a corporation, any dissolution, merger, consolidation, or other reorganization of Tenant, any sale or transfer (or cumulative sales or transfers) of the capital stock of Tenant in excess of twenty-five percent (25%), or any sale (or cumulative sales) or transfer of fifty-one (51%) or more of the value of the assets of Tenant provided, however, the foregoing shall not apply to corporations the capital stock of which is publicly traded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as Tenant's Use does not change. Tenant shall have the right to assign the Lease without Landlord's consent to: i) Tenant's wholly-owned subsidiary; ii) Tenant's parent corporation, or subsidiary of parent corporation: iii) the surviving entity if Tenant merges or consolidates (it being agreed that such merger or consolidation shall be permitted subject to the provisions of this clause (iii)), provided that the surviving entity has a net worth at least equal to that of Tenant prior to such merger or consolidation: iv) in the event of a public offering of Tenant's shares on a major national stock exchange, or (v) in the event of a sale of substantially all assets of the Tenant. In the event of such an assignment. Tenant shall provide Landlord prior written notice of the assignment, which notice shall include the identity of the assignee, the anticipated date of the assignment and the forwarding address of the assignor, if applicable. Nothing contained herein shall relieve Tenant (or the assignor, as the case may be) of its obligations under the Lease. 18.2. Landlord's Consent. If, at any time or from time to time during the Term hereof, Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet all or any part of the Premises, and if Tenant is not then in default under the terms of the Lease, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a written request for approval setting forth the terms and provisions of the proposed assignment or sublease, the identity of the proposed assignee or subtenant, and a copy of the proposed form of assignment or sublease. Tenant's request for consent shall be submitted to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the intended date of such transfer. Tenant shall promptly supply Landlord with such information concerning the business background and financial condition of such proposed assignee or subtenant as Landlord may reasonably request. Landlord shall have the right to approve such proposed assignee or subtenant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In no event however, shall Landlord be required to consent to any assignment or sublease (a) to an existing tenant in the Project or (b) that may violate any restrictions contained in any mortgage, lease or agreement affecting the Project. Landlord's consent to any assignment shall not be construed as a consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, transfer of partnership interest or stock, occupancy or use. 18.2.1. Landlord's approval shall be conditioned, among other things, on Landlord's receiving adequate assurances of future performance under this Lease and any sublease or assignment. In determining the adequacy of such assurances, Landlord may base its decision on such factors as it deems appropriate, including but not limited to: 18.2.1.1. that the source of rent and other consideration due under this Lease, and, in the case of assignment, that the financial condition and operating performance and business experience of the proposed assignee and its guarantors, if any, shall be equal to or greater than the financial condition and operating performance and experience of Tenant and its guarantors, if any, as of the time Tenant became the lessee under this Lease; 18.2.1.2. that any assumption or assignment of this Lease will not result in increased cost or expense, wear and tear, greater traffic or demand for services and Page 14 utilities provided by Landlord pursuant to Section 10. hereof and will not disturb or be detrimental to other tenants of Landlord; 18.2.1.3. whether the proposed assignee's use of the Premises will include the use of Hazardous Material, or will in any way increase any risk to Landlord relating to Hazardous Material; and 18.2.1.4. 18.2.2. The assignment or sublease shall be on the same terms and conditions set forth in the written request for approval given to Landlord, or, if different, upon terms and conditions consented to by Landlord; 18.2.3. No assignment or sublease shall be valid and no assignee or sublessee shall take possession of the Premises or any part thereof until an executed counterpart of such assignment or sublease has been delivered to Landlord; 18.2.4. No assignee or sublessee shall have a further right to assign or sublet except on the terms herein contained; 18.2.5. Any sums or other economic considerations received by Tenant as a result of such assignment or subletting, however denominated under the assignment or sublease, which exceed, in the aggregate (a) the total sums which Tenant is obligated to pay Landlord under this Lease (prorated to reflect obligations allocable to any portion of the Premises subleased), plus (b) any real estate brokerage commissions or fees payable to third parties in connection with such assignment or subletting, shall be shared equally by Tenant and Landlord as Additional Rent under this Lease without effecting or reducing any other obligations of Tenant hereunder. If Landlord consents to the proposed transfer, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord three (3) fully executed original documents (in the form previously approved by Landlord) and Landlord shall attach its consent thereto. Landlord shall retain one (1) fully executed original document. No transfer of Tenant's interest in this Lease shall be deemed effective until the terms and conditions of this Section 18. have been fulfilled. 18.3. Tenant Remains Responsible. No subletting or assignment shall release Tenant of Tenant's obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay the Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof. Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. In the event of default by an assignee or subtenant of Tenant or any successor of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such assignee, subtenant or successor. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments or sublets of the Lease or amendments or modifications to the Lease with assignees of Tenant, without notifying Tenant, or any successor of Tenant, and without obtaining its or their consent thereto and any such actions shall not relieve Tenant of liability under this Lease. 18.4. Conversion to a Limited Liability Entity. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Tenant is a limited or general partnership (or is comprised of two (2) or more persons, individually or as co-partners, or entities), the change or conversion of Tenant to (a) a limited liability company, (b) a limited liability partnership, or (c) any other entity which possesses the characteristics of limited liability (any such limited liability entity is collectively referred to herein as a "Successor Entity") shall be prohibited unless the prior written consent of Landlord is obtained, which consent may be withheld in Landlord's sole discretion. 18.4.1. Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, Landlord agrees not to unreasonably withhold or delay such consent provided that: 18.4.1.1. The Successor Entity succeeds to all or substantially all of Tenant's business and assets; 18.4.1.2. The Successor Entity shall have a tangible net worth (Tangible Net Worth), determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, of not less than the greater of the Tangible Net Worth of Tenant on (a) the date of execution of the Lease, or (b) the day immediately preceding the proposed effective date of such conversion; and 18.4.1.3. Tenant is not in default of any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Lease on the propose effective date of such conversion. 18.5. Payment of Fees. If Tenant assigns the Lease or sublets the Premises or requests the consent of Landlord to any assignment, subletting or conversion to a limited liability entity, then Tenant shall, upon demand, pay Landlord, whether or not consent is ultimately given, an administrative fee not to exceed Three Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($300.00) so long as Tenant does not request changes to the Lease or Landlord's standard form of consent. Page 15 19. DEFAULT. 19.1. Tenant's Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default and breach of this Lease by Tenant. 19.1.1. If Tenant abandons the Premises or vacates the Premises for three (3) consecutive months. 19.1.2. If Tenant fails to pay any Rent or Additional Rent or any other charges required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease and such failure continues for three (3) days after receipt of Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant. 19.1.3. If Tenant fails to promptly and fully perform any other covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Lease and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant, or, if such default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, if Tenant fails to commence to cure within that thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecute to completion. 19.1.4. Tenant's failure to occupy the Premises within sixty (60) days after delivery of possession (as defined in Section 4. hereof). 19.1.5. Tenant's failure to provide any document, instrument or assurance as required by Sections 12., 15., 18. and/or 35. if the failure continues for seven (7) days after receipt of Notice from Landlord to Tenant. 19.1.6. To the extent provided by law: 19.1.6.1. If a writ of attachment or execution is levied on this Lease or on substantially all of Tenant's Property; or 19.1.6.2. If Tenant or Tenant's Guarantor makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or 19.1.6.3. If Tenant files a voluntary petition for relief or if a petition against Tenant in a proceeding under the federal bankruptcy laws or other insolvency laws is filed and not withdrawn or dismissed within ninety (90) days thereafter, or if under the provisions of any law providing for reorganization or winding up of corporations, any court of competent jurisdiction assumes jurisdiction, custody or control of Tenant or any substantial part of its property and such jurisdiction, custody or control remains in force unrelinquished, unstayed or unterminated for a period of ninety (90) days; or 19.1.6.4. If in any proceeding or action in which Tenant is a party, a trustee, receiver, agent or custodian is appointed to take charge of the Premises or Tenant's Property (or has the authority to do so); or 19.1.6.5. If Tenant is a partnership or consists of more than one (1) person or entity, if any partner of the partnership or other person or entity is involved in any of the acts or events described in Sections 19.1.6.1. through above. 19.2. Landlord Remedies. In the event of Tenant's default hereunder, then, in addition to any other rights or remedies Landlord may have under any law or at equity, Landlord shall have the right to collect interest on all past due sums (at the maximum rate permitted by law to be charged by an individual), and, at Landlord's option and without further notice or demand of any kind, to do the following: 19.2.1. Terminate this Lease and Tenant's right to possession of the Premises and reenter the Premises and take possession thereof, and Tenant shall have no further claim to the Premises or under this Lease; or 19.2.2. Continue this Lease in effect, reenter and occupy the Premises for the account of Tenant, and collect any unpaid Rent or other charges which have or thereafter become due and payable; or 19.2.3. Reenter the Premises under the provisions of Section 19.2.2., and thereafter elect to terminate this Lease and Tenant's right to possession of the Premises. If Landlord reenters the Premises under the provisions of Sections 19.2.2. or 19.2.3. above, Landlord shall not be deemed to have terminated this Lease or the obligation of Tenant to pay any Rent or other charges thereafter accruing unless Landlord notifies Tenant in writing of Landlord's election to terminate this Lease. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises or the appointment of a receiver on Landlord's initiative to protect Landlord's interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant's obligations under the Lease. In the event of any reentry or retaking of possession by Landlord, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remove all or any part of Tenant's Property in the Premises and to place such property in storage at a public warehouse at the expense and risk of Tenant. If Landlord elects to relet Page 16 the Premises for the account of Tenant, the rent received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied as follows: first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs of such reletting; third, to the payment of the cost of any alterations or repairs to the Premises; fourth to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the balance, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as it becomes due. If that portion of Rent received from the reletting which is applied against the Rent due hereunder is less than the amount of the Rent due, Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord promptly upon demand by Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as determined, any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with such reletting or in making alterations and repairs to the Premises which are not covered by the rent received from the reletting. Provided, however, (i) Landlord shall be obligated to use reasonable efforts to mitigate all damages due to Landlord as a result of any event of default and (ii) any and all of Landlord's remedies described herein below resulting from any event of default shall be exercised only in accordance with, and to the extent permitted by applicable law. 19.3. Damages Recoverable. Should Landlord elect to terminate this Lease under the provisions of Section 19.2., Landlord may recover as damages from Tenant the following: 19.3.1. Past Rent. The worth at the time of the award of any unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time of termination including the value of any Rent that was abated during the Term of the Lease (except Rent that was abated as a result of damage or destruction or condemnation); plus 19.3.2. Rent Prior to Award. The worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent that would have been earned between the time of the termination and the time of the award exceeds the amount of unpaid Rent that Tenant proves could reasonably have been avoided; plus 19.3.3. Rent After Award. The worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of the unpaid Rent that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus 19.3.4. Proximately Caused Damages. Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, any costs or expenses (including attorneys' fees), incurred by Landlord in (a) retaking possession of the Premises, (b) maintaining the Premises after Tenant's default, (c) preparing the Premises for reletting to a new tenant, including any repairs or alterations, and (d) reletting the Premises, including brokers' commissions. "The worth at the time of the award" as used in Sections 19.3.1. and 19.3.2. above, is to be computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate permitted by law to be charged by an individual. "The worth at the time of the award" as used in Section 19.3.3. above, is to be computed by discounting the amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank situated nearest to the Premises at the time of the award plus one percent (1%). 19.4. Landlord's Right to Cure Tenant's Default. If Tenant defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease and Tenant has not timely cured the default after Notice, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to), without waiving such default, perform the same for the account and at the expense of Tenant. Tenant shall pay Landlord all costs of such performance immediately upon written demand therefor, and if paid at a later date these costs shall bear interest at the maximum rate permitted by law to be charged by an individual. 19.5. Landlord's Default. If Landlord fails to perform any covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Lease within thirty (30) days after receipt of Notice from Tenant specifying such default, or, if such default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days if Landlord fails to commence to cure within that thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecute to completion, then Landlord shall be liable to Tenant for any damages sustained by Tenant as a result of Landlord's breach; provided, however, it is expressly understood and agreed that if Tenant obtains a money judgment against Landlord resulting from any default or other claim arising under this Lease, that judgment shall be satisfied only out of the rents, issues, profits, and other income actually received on account of Landlord's right, title and interest in the Premises, Building or Project, and no other real, personal or mixed property of Landlord (or of any of the partners which comprise Landlord, if any), wherever situated, shall be subject to levy to satisfy such judgment. 19.6. Mortgagee Protection. Tenant agrees to send by certified or registered mail to any first mortgagee or first deed of trust beneficiary of Landlord whose address has been furnished to Tenant, a copy of any notice of default served by Tenant on Landlord. If Landlord fails to cure such default within the time provided for in this Lease, then such mortgagee or beneficiary shall have such additional time to cure the default as is reasonably necessary under the circumstances. 19.7. Tenant's Right to Cure Landlord's Default. If, after Notice to Landlord of default, Landlord (or any first mortgagee or first deed of trust beneficiary of Landlord) fails to cure the default as provided herein, then Tenant shall have the right to cure that default at Landlord's expense. Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease or to withhold, reduce or offset any amount against any payments of Page 17 Rent or any other charges due and payable under this Lease except as otherwise specifically provided herein. Tenant expressly waives the benefits of any statute now or hereafter in effect which would otherwise afford Tenant the right to make repairs at Landlord's expense or to terminate this Lease because of Landlord's failure to keep the Premises in good order, condition and repair. 20. WAIVER. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord upon any default by Tenant shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver of such default. The receipt and acceptance by Landlord of delinquent Rent shall not constitute a waiver of any other default: it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular Rent payment involved (excluding the collection of a late charge or interest). No act or conduct of Landlord, including, without limitation, the acceptance of keys to the Premises, shall constitute an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises by Tenant before the expiration of the Term. Only written acknowledgement from Landlord to Tenant shall constitute acceptance of the surrender of the Premises and accomplish a termination of this Lease. Landlord's consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Tenant. Any waiver by Landlord of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Lease. 21. SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT. This Lease is and shall be subject and subordinate to all ground or underlying leases (including renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof) which now exist or may hereafter be executed affecting the Building or the land upon which the Building is situated, or both, and to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of trust in any amount or amounts whatsoever (including renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof) now or hereafter placed on or against the Building or on or against Landlord's interest or estate therein, or on or against any ground or underlying lease, without the necessity of the execution and delivery of any further instruments on the part of Tenant to effectuate such subordination. Nevertheless, Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver upon demand, without charge therefor, such further instruments evidencing such subordination of this Lease to such ground or underlying leases, and to the lien of any such mortgages or deeds of trust as may be required by Landlord. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if any mortgagee, trustee or ground lessor shall elect that this Lease is senior to the lien of its mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, and shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, whether this Lease is dated prior or subsequent to the date of said mortgage, deed of trust, or ground lease, or the date of the recording thereof. In the event of any foreclosure sale, transfer in lieu of foreclosure or termination of the lease in which Landlord is lessee, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser, transferee or lessor as the case may be, and recognize that party as Landlord under this Lease, provided such party acquires and accepts the Premises subject to this lease. Upon written request of Tenant as a condition precedent to the future subordination of this Lease to a future mortgage. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to secure, at no cost to Landlord, a subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant, to Landlord and to the lender, from any future lender on the Building. 22. TENANT ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. 22.1. Landlord Request for Estoppel Certificate. Within ten (10) days after receipt of a written request from Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord or Landlord's designee, in the form requested by Landlord, a written statement certifying, among other things, (a) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or that it is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications; (b) the amount of Base Rent and the date to which Base Rent and Additional Rent have been paid in advance; (c) the amount of any security deposited with Landlord; and (d) that Landlord is not in default hereunder or, if Landlord is claimed to be in default, stating the nature of any claimed default. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by a prospective purchaser, assignee or encumbrancer of the Premises. 22.2. Failure to Execute. Tenant's failure to execute and deliver such statement within the reasonable time required shall at Landlord's election be a default under this Lease and shall also be conclusive upon Tenant that: (a) this Lease is in full force and effect and has not been modified except as represented by Landlord; (b) there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance and that Tenant has no right of offset, counter-claim or deduction against Rent and (c) not more than one month's Rent has been paid in advance. 23. NOTICE. Notice shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly served or given if personally delivered, sent by certified or registered U.S. Mail, postage prepaid with a return receipt requested, or sent by overnight courier service, fee prepaid with a return receipt requested, as follows: (a) if to Landlord, to Landlord's Address for Page 18 Notice with a copy to the Building manager, and (b) if to Tenant, to Tenant's Mailing Address; provided, however, Notices to Tenant shall be deemed duly served or given if delivered or sent to Tenant at the Premises. Landlord and Tenant may from time to time by Notice to the other designate another place for receipt of future Notice. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, when an applicable State statute requires service of Notice in a particular manner, service of that Notice in accordance with those particular requirements shall replace rather than supplement any Notice requirement set forth in the Lease. 24. TRANSFER OF LANDLORD'S INTEREST. In the event of any sale or transfer by Landlord of the Premises, Building or Project, and assignment of this Lease by Landlord, Landlord shall be and is hereby entirely freed and relieved of any and all liability and obligations contained in or derived from this Lease arising out of any act, occurrence or omission relating to the Premises, Building, Project or Lease occurring after the consummation of such sale or transfer, provided the purchaser shall expressly assume all of the covenants and obligations of Landlord under this Lease. This Lease shall not be affected by any such sale and Tenant agrees to attorn to the purchaser or assignee provided all of Landlord's obligations hereunder are assumed by such transferee. If any security deposit or prepaid Rent has been paid by Tenant, Landlord shall transfer the security deposit or prepaid Rent to Landlord's successor and upon such transfer, Landlord shall be relieved of any and all further liability with respect thereto. 25. SURRENDER OF PREMISES. 25.1. Clean and Same Condition. Upon the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall peaceably surrender the Premises to Landlord clean and in the same condition as when received, except for (a) reasonable wear and tear, (b) loss by fire or other casualty, and (c) loss by condemnation. Tenant shall remove Tenant's Property no later than the Expiration Date. If Tenant is required by Landlord to remove any additions, alterations, or improvements under Section 12.3., Tenant shall complete such removal no later than the Expiration Date. Any damage to the Premises, including any structural damage, resulting from removal of any addition, alteration, or improvement made pursuant to Section 12.3. and/or from Tenant's use or from the removal of Tenant's Property pursuant to Section 13.2. shall be repaired (in accordance with Landlord's reasonable direction) no later than the Expiration Date by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense. On the Expiration Date, Tenant shall surrender all keys to the Premises. 25.2. Failure to Deliver Possession. If Tenants fails to vacate and deliver possession of the Premises to Landlord on the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease as required by Section 12.3., Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from all claims, liabilities and damages resulting from Tenant's failure to vacate and deliver possession of the Premises, including, without limitation, claims made by a succeeding tenant resulting from Tenant's failure to vacate and deliver possession of the Premises and rental loss which Landlord suffers. 25.3. Property Abandoned. If Tenant abandons or surrenders the Premises, or is dispossessed by process of law or otherwise, any of Tenant's Property left on the Premises shall be deemed to be abandoned, and, at Landlord's option, title shall pass to Landlord under this Lease as by a bill of sale. If Landlord elects to remove all or any part of such Tenant's Property, the cost of removal, including repairing any damage to the Premises or Building caused by such removal, shall be paid by Tenant. 26. HOLDING OVER. Tenant shall not occupy the Premises after the Expiration Date without Landlord's consent. If after expiration of the Term, Tenant remains in possession of the Premises with Landlord's permission (express or implied), Tenant shall become a tenant from month to month only upon all the provisions of this Lease (except as to the term and Base Rent). Monthly Installments of Base Rent payable by Tenant during this period shall be increased one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Monthly Installments of Base Rent payable by Tenant in the final month of the Term. The tenancy may be terminated by either party, effective on the last day of a calendar month, by delivering a Notice to the other party at least thirty (30) days prior thereto. Nothing contained in this Section 26. shall be construed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies available to Landlord pursuant to this Lease or at law. 27. RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant agrees to comply with (and cause its agents, contractors, employees and invitees to comply with) the rules and regulations attached hereto as Exhibit "E" and with such reasonable modifications thereof and additions thereto as Landlord may from time to time make. Landlord agrees to enforce the rules and regulations uniformly against all tenants of the Project.

Tenant's Obligations. If at any time, Tenant's Telecommunications Companies or appropriate governmental authorities relocate the point of demarcation from the location of Tenant's telecommunications equipment in Tenant's telephone equipment room or other location, to some other point, or in any other manner transfer any obligations or liabilities for telecommunications to Landlord or Tenant, whether by operation of law or otherwise, upon Landlord's election, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole expense and cost: (1) within thirty (30) days after notice is first given to Tenant of Landlord's election, cause to be completed by an appropriate telecommunications engineering entity approved in advance in writing by Landlord, all details of the Telecommunications Lines serving Tenant in the Building which details shall include all appropriate plans, schematics, and specifications; and (2) if Landlord so elects, immediately undertake the operation, repair and maintenance of the Telecommunications Lines serving Tenant in the Building; and (3) upon the termination of the Lease for any reason, or upon expiration of the Lease, immediately effect the complete removal of all or any portion or portions of the Telecommunications Lines serving Tenant in the Building and repair any damage caused thereby (to Landlord's reasonable satisfaction). Prior to the commencement of any alterations, additions, or modifications to the Telecommunications Lines serving Tenant in the Building, except for minor changes, Tenant shall first obtain Landlord's prior written consent by written request accompanied by detailed plans, schematics, and specifications showing all alterations, additions and modifications to be performed, with the time schedule for completion of the work, and the identity of the entity that will perform the work, for which, except as otherwise provided in Section 35.3. below, Landlord may withhold consent, said consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned. 35.3. Landlord's Consent. Without in any way limiting Landlord's right to withhold its consent to a proposed request for access, or for alterations, additions or modifications of the Telecommunications Lines serving Tenant in the Building, Landlord shall consider the following factors in making its determination: 35.3.1. If the proposed actions of Tenant and its Telecommunications Companies will impose new obligations on Landlord, or expose Landlord to liability of any nature or description, or increase Landlord's insurance costs for the Building, or create liabilities for which Landlord is unable to obtain insurance protection, or imperil Landlord's insurance coverage; 35.3.2. If Tenant's Telecommunications Companies are unwilling to pay reasonable monetary compensation for the use and occupation of the Building for the Telecommunications Lines; 35.3.3. If Tenant and its Telecommunications Companies would cause any work to be performed that would adversely affect the land and Building or any space in the Building in any manner; 35.3.4. If Tenant encumbers or mortgages its interest in any telecommunications wiring or cabling; or 35.3.5. If Tenant is in default under this Lease. Page 21 35.4. Indemnification. Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord and its employees, agents, officers and directors from and against any claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs, or expenses of any kind or nature, known or unknown, contingent or otherwise, arising out of or in any way related to the acts and omissions of Tenant, Tenant's officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors, subtenants and invitees with respect to (1) any Telecommunications Lines serving Tenant in the Building which are on, from, or affecting the Project and Building; (2) any bodily injury (including wrongful death) or property damage (real or personal) arising out of or related to any Telecommunications Lines serving Tenant in the Building which are on, from, or affecting the Building (except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord); (3) any lawsuit brought settlement reached, or governmental order relating to such Telecommunications Lines; (4) any violations of laws, orders, regulations, requirements, or demands of governmental authorities, or any reasonable policies or requirements of Landlord, which are based upon or in any way related to such Telecommunications Lines, including, without limitation, attorney and consultant fees, court costs and litigation expenses. This indemnification and hold harmless agreement will survive this Lease. Under no circumstances shall Landlord be required to maintain, repair or replace any Building systems or any portions thereof, when such maintenance, repair or replacement is caused in whole or in part by the failure of any such system or any portions thereof, and/or the requirements of any governmental authorities. Under no circumstances shall Landlord be liable for interruption in telecommunications services to Tenant or any other entity affected, for electrical spikes or surges, or for any other cause whatsoever, whether by Act of God or otherwise, even if the same is caused by the ordinary negligence of Landlord, Landlord's contractors, subcontractors, or agents or other tenants, subtenants, or their contractors, subcontractors, or agents. 35.5. Landlord's Operation of Building Telecommunications Lines and Systems. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the point of demarcation is relocated, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, undertake the operation, repair and maintenance of telecommunications lines and systems in the Building. If Landlord so elects, Landlord shall give Notice of its intent to do so, and Landlord shall, based on Landlord's sole business discretion, make such lines and systems available to tenants of the Building (including Tenant) in the manner it deems most prudent. Landlord may include in Operating Expenses all or a portion of the expenses related to the operation, repair and maintenance of the telecommunications lines and systems. 36. MISCELLANEOUS. 36.1. Accord and Satisfaction; Allocation of Payments. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Rent provided for in this Lease shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest due Rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of the Rent or pursue any other remedy provided for in this Lease. In connection with the foregoing, Landlord shall have the absolute right in its sole discretion to apply any payment received from Tenant to any account or other payment of Tenant then not current and due or delinquent. 36.2. Addenda. If any provision contained in an addendum to this Lease is inconsistent with any other provision herein, the provision contained in the addendum shall control, unless otherwise provided in the addendum. 36.3. Attorneys' Fees. If any action or proceeding is brought by either party against the other pertaining to or arising out of this Lease, the finally prevailing party (i.e., the party that recovers the greater relief as a result of the action or proceeding) shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred on account of such action or proceeding. 36.4. Captions and Section Numbers. The captions appearing in the body of this Lease have been inserted as a matter of convenience and for reference only and in no way define, limit or enlarge the scope or meaning of this Lease. All references to Section numbers refer to Sections in this Lease. 36.5. Changes Requested by Lender. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall unreasonably withhold its consent to changes or amendments to this Lease requested by the lender on Landlord's interest, so long as such changes do not alter the basic business terms of this Lease or otherwise materially diminish any rights or materially increase any obligations of the party from whom consent to such change or amendment is requested. 36.6. Choice of Law. This Lease shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State. 36.7. Consent. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall have no claim, and hereby waives the right to any claim against Landlord for money damages, by reason of any refusal, withholding or delaying by Landlord of any consent, approval or statement of satisfaction, and, in such event, Tenant's only remedies therefor shall be an action for specific performance, injunction or declaratory judgment to enforce any right to such consent, approval or statement of satisfaction. 36.8. Authority. If Tenant is not an individual signing on his or her own behalf, then each individual signing this Lease on behalf of the business entity that constitutes Tenant represents and warrants that the individual is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of the business entity, and that this Lease is binding on Tenant in accordance with its terms. Tenant shall, at Landlord's request, deliver a Page 22 certified copy of a resolution of its board of directors, if Tenant is a corporation, or other memorandum of resolution if Tenant is a limited partnership, general partnership or limited liability entity, authorizing such execution. 36.9. Waiver of Right to Jury Trial. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive their respective rights to a trial by jury of any claim, action, proceeding or counterclaim by either party against the other on any matters arising out of or in any way connected with this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant, and/or Tenant's Use or occupancy of the Premises, Building or Project (including any claim of injury or damage or the enforcement of any remedy under any current or future laws, statutes, regulations, codes or ordinances). 36.10. Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in multiple counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same Lease. 36.11. Execution of Lease; No Option. The submission of this Lease to Tenant shall be for examination purposes only and does not and shall not constitute a reservation of or option for Tenant to Lease, or otherwise create any interest of Tenant in the Premises or any other premises within the Building or Project. Execution of this Lease by Tenant and its return to Landlord shall not be binding on Landlord, notwithstanding any time interval, until Landlord has in fact signed and delivered this Lease to Tenant. 36.12. Furnishing of Financial Statements; Tenant's Representations. In order to induce Landlord to enter into this Lease, but not more often than once per calendar year, unless Tenant is in default or in the event of a sale or refinance of the Building. Tenant agrees that it shall promptly furnish Landlord, from time to time, upon Landlord's written request, financial statements reflecting Tenant's current financial condition. Tenant, to the best of its knowledge, represents and warrants that all financial statements, records and information furnished by Tenant to Landlord in connection with this Lease are true, correct and complete in all respects. 36.13.

TENANT IMPROVEMENTS. Section 37. adds to and amends the Lease as follows: (a) Subject to the Allowance (as such term is defined below), Landlord has agreed to construct certain leasehold improvements in the Premises prior to Tenant's occupancy using Building standard methods, materials and finishes and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Work Letter attached to the Lease as Exhibit D (the "Leasehold Improvements" or, for purposes of Section 12.1. of this Lease, "Landlord's Work"). Tenant does not intend to construct any additional leasehold improvements, and therefore there is no "Tenant's Work" for purposes of Section 12.2. (b) Landlord has agreed to contribute a maximum amount of $781,438.00 towards the hard costs of the Leasehold Improvements (the "Allowance"); provided, however, that Tenant may use a portion of the Allowance in an amount not to exceed (i) $83,725.50 for the cost of preparing design and construction documents and mechanical and electrical plans for the Leasehold Improvements, and (ii) $55,817.00 (the "Furniture Allowance") for the cost of relocating the furniture currently existing in the Premises as of the date of this Lease. (c) Promptly following full execution of this Lease, Landlord shall cause its space planner and/or architect (the "Space Planner") to prepare a space plan with specifications (collectively, the "Space Plan") in sufficient detail for Landlord's general contractor ("General Contractor") to price the Leasehold Improvements. Tenant shall provide information required by the Space Planner to prepare the Space Plan within not more than twenty four (24) hours of request and shall provide approvals within not more than forty eight (48) hours of submission of the preliminary Space Plan and final Space Plan. Any delays by Tenant in responding to the Space Planner's requests for information, excessive revisions, or delay in approving the preliminary and any final Space Plan shall constitute Tenant Delay. The final Space Plan shall be initialed and dated by each party and a copy thereof shall be attached to each original of this Lease as Exhibit "D-l." (d) Landlord shall cause General Contractor to price the construction contract for the Leasehold Improvements. In the event the Allowance will be exceeded, Landlord shall provide Tenant with an opportunity to revise the scope of the Leasehold Improvements. In no event shall this Lease be terminable on the basis of the pricing for the Leasehold Improvements. (e) Promptly after approval of the Space Plan, Landlord shall cause Space Planner to prepare construction drawings and specifications (collectively, the "Construction Drawings") based on the Space Plan for Tenant's review and approval. Tenant shall not delay or unreasonably withhold its approval of the Construction Drawings. Tenant shall have not more than forty eight (48) hours to review and approve the Construction Drawings. When approved, the Construction Drawings shall be dated and initialed by Landlord and Tenant and attached to each original of this Lease as Exhibit "D-2." (f) Any portion of the Allowance which exceeds the cost of the Leasehold Improvements or is otherwise remaining after December 31, 2005 shall accrue to the sole benefit of Landlord, it being agreed that Tenant shall not be entitled to any credit, offset, abatement or payment with respect thereto. 38. OPTION TO EXTEND. Section 38. adds to and amends the Lease as follows: (a) Tenant is hereby granted one (1) option to extend the Term of the Lease (the "Option to Extend") for a period of five (5) years (the "Extended Term"). Upon the proper exercise of the Option to Extend, the Term shall be extended for the Extended Term. Tenant shall not 1 have the right to extend the initial Term if as of the date of delivery of the Option Exercise Notice (as defined below), or as of the end of the initial Term, Tenant is in default under the Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period. (b) The Option to Extend shall be exercised by Tenant, if at all, by giving written Notice of exercise (the "Option Exercise Notice") not more than fifteen (15) months and not less than twelve (12) months prior to the Expiration Date for the initial Term. If Tenant expands its Premises, the Option to Extend shall cover the entirety of the Premises as of the Expiration Date for the initial Term. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that Tenant does not properly exercise its Option to Extend the initial Term for the Extended Term, then Tenant's Option to Extend shall be null and void and of no further force or effect. (c) Base Rent for each year of Extended Term shall be adjusted to fair market Base Rent, as of the commencement of the Extended Term, for renewals of comparable term and space in the Building and/or in similar class buildings in the submarket in which the Premises is located. (d) The parties shall have thirty (30) days after Landlord receives the Option Exercise Notice in which to agree on fair market Base Rent during the Extended Term. If the parties agree on the Base Rent for the Extended Term during such thirty (30) day period, they shall immediately execute an amendment to the Lease stating the new Base Rent. (e) If the parties are unable to agree on fair market Base Rent for the Extended Term within such thirty (30) day period, then within ten (10) days after the expiration of that period each party, at its cost and by giving written notice to the other party, shall appoint a real estate broker with at least 5 years full-time commercial brokerage experience in the area in which the Premises is located to estimate and set Base Rent for the Extended Term. If a party does not appoint a broker within ten (10) days after the other party has given notice of the name of its broker, the single broker appointed shall be the sole broker and shall set Base Rent for the Extended Term. If the two brokers are appointed by the parties as stated in this Section 38., they shall meet promptly and attempt to set Base Rent for the Extended Term. If they are unable to agree within thirty (30) days after the second broker has been appointed, they shall attempt to elect a third broker meeting the qualifications stated in this Section 38. within ten (10) days after the last day the two brokers are given to set Base Rent. If they are unable to agree on the third broker, either of the parties to this Lease by giving ten (10) days written notice to the other party can apply to the then president of the county real estate board of the county in which the Premises are located, or to the presiding judge of the superior court of that county, for the selection of a third broker who meets the qualifications stated in this Section 38. Each of the parties shall bear one half of the cost of appointing the third broker and of paying the third broker's fee. The third broker, however selected, shall be a person who has not previously acted in any capacity for either party. Within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third broker, a majority of the brokers shall set Base Rent for the Extended Term. In setting Base Rent, the broker or brokers shall consider the highest and best use for the Premises without regard to the restriction on use of the Premises contained in this Lease. If, however, the low estimate and/or the high estimate are/is more than five percent (5%) lower and/or higher than the middle estimate, the low estimate and/or the high estimate shall be disregarded. If only one estimate is disregarded, the average of the remaining two estimates shall be the Base Rent for the Premises during the Extended Term. If both the low estimate and the high estimate are disregarded as stated in this Section 38., the middle estimate shall be the Base Rent for the Premises during the Extended Term. After Base Rent for the Extended Term has been set, the broker shall immediately notify the parties. Landlord and Tenant shall immediately execute an Amendment to the Lease setting forth Base Rent for the Extended Term. (f) This Option to Extend is granted by Landlord to the Tenant originally named in the Lease and to no other, and is personal as to such entity and shall not be exercised or assigned, voluntarily or involuntarily, by or to anyone or any other entity. Any assignment of this Option to Extend without Landlord's prior written consent shall be null and void and, at Landlord's election, shall constitute a default under the Lease. Landlord's consent to an assignment of the Lease shall not also constitute consent to assignment of the Option to Extend unless the Option to Extend is expressly included in Landlord's consent. 2 39. RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER. Section 39. adds to and amends the Lease as follows: (a) Provided that Tenant is not in default under the Lease at the time of offer, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant a one-time right of first offer ("Right of First Offer") to lease any available space ("Available Space") in the Building which may become available for lease as provided hereinbelow as determined by Landlord. For purposes hereof, the Available Space shall become available for lease at such time as Landlord is prepared to actively market such Available Space for lease to third parties and/or to submit to a third party a bona fide proposal or letter of intent to lease the Available Space. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant's Right of First Offer set forth herein shall be subject and subordinate to all expansion, first offer and similar rights set forth in any lease for space in the Building and Landlord may in all cases renew or extend an existing tenant's lease of its existing premises regardless of the existence of an extension or renewal option in such tenant's lease. "One-time" means if Tenant declines any offer from Landlord, Landlord shall not be required to make future offers to Tenant. (b) Landlord shall notify Tenant, in writing (the "Availability Notice"), of the availability of the Available Space and shall specify, in the Availability Notice, the term and commencement date for the Available Space, Monthly Base Rent for such term, any improvements allowance and any other significant business terms for the Available Space (all of which shall be consistent with terms being offered to other prospective tenants). Tenant shall either accept Landlord's offer as set forth in the Availability Notice, in which case the parties shall prepare and execute an amendment to the Lease to add the Available Space to the Premises under the terms indicated by Landlord, or Tenant shall counter-propose other terms, each by written notice (the "Acceptance Notice" or the "Counterproposal Notice," as applicable) returned to Landlord within five (5) days of receipt of Landlord's Availability Notice. In the event that Tenant fails to return an Acceptance Notice or a Counterproposal Notice within the time period prescribed, this one-time Right of First Offer shall be rendered null and void and Landlord may freely offer the Available Space or any portion of it to any other party on any terms. (c) If Tenant timely returns a Counterproposal Notice, and has countered Landlord's offer, Landlord may either accept Tenant's counterproposal or the parties shall thereafter endeavor, in good faith, promptly, and using diligent efforts, to agree upon mutually satisfactory business terms. If the parties fail to reach agreement on business terms within five (5) days of Landlord's receipt of Tenant's timely Counterproposal Notice, and neither party accepts the other's original proposal or counterproposal, then this one-time Right of First Offer shall be rendered null and void and Landlord may freely offer the Available Space or any portion of it to any other party on any terms. If the parties reach agreement on business terms within five (5) days of Landlord's receipt of Tenant's timely Counterproposal Notice or the initial proposal or counterproposal has been accepted within said five (5) days, they shall immediately execute an amendment to the Lease stating the addition of the Available Space to the Premises under the Lease for the agreed terms. (d) This one-time Right of First Offer is not applicable during the last full calendar year of the Lease Term unless Tenant has properly exercised its option to extend the initial Term of the Lease. (e) This one-time Right of First Offer is granted to the original Tenant executing this Lease, and is personal as to such entity and shall not be exercised or assigned, voluntarily or involuntarily, by or to anyone or any other entity. Any assignment of this one-time Right of First Offer without Landlord's prior written consent shall be null and void and, at Landlord's election, shall constitute an immediate default under the Lease. Landlord's consent to an assignment of the Lease shall not also constitute consent to assignment of the Right of First Offer unless the Right of First Offer is expressly included in Landlord's consent. 3 40. SIGNAGE. Section 40. adds to and amends the Lease as follows: Tenant is hereby granted the right to install, at its sole cost and expense, a sign on the exterior of the Building. Such signage shall be subject to (i) all applicable laws, statutes, codes, regulations, etc. set forth by any governmental or quasi-governmental entity or entities having jurisdiction thereof, (ii) all permit requirements set forth by local authorities, and (iii) Landlord's approval as to size, location, placement, manner of placement, and design of such sign. Any costs of construction, erection, maintenance, utilities, repair, replacement, removal, or any other costs whatsoever related to such sign shall be Tenant's expense. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall remove such sign at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, and shall repair any damage to the Building caused by the installation, presence, removal, or other activity related to such sign. 41. SECURITY DEPOSIT REDUCTION. Section 41. adds to and amends the Lease as follows: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, and subject to the remaining terms of this Section 41, upon Tenant's satisfaction of the First Milestone Requirement (as defined below), Tenant shall have the right to provide Landlord with a written notice (the "First Security Deposit Reduction Notice") advising Landlord that Tenant has satisfied the First Milestone Requirement and requesting that Landlord reduce the amount of the Security Deposit then held by Landlord under the Lease by one-third (1/3). Tenant's First Security Deposit Reduction Notice shall be accompanied by financial statements that have been certified by Tenant and reviewed by Tenant's public accounting firm on an annual or quarterly basis evidencing the satisfaction of the First Milestone Requirement. For purposes of the Lease, the "First Milestone Requirement" shall be satisfied by Tenant if Tenant achieves not less than $66,000,000.00 in net sales (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied ("GAAP")), and not less than $15,000,000.00 in net income before interest and taxes (as determined in accordance with GAAP). In addition, subject to the remaining terms of this Section 41, and provided that Tenant has satisfied the First Milestone Requirement and was entitled to reduce the Security Deposit as provided herein, then upon Tenant's satisfaction of the Second Milestone Requirement (as defined below), Tenant shall have the right to provide Landlord with a written notice (the "Second Security Deposit Reduction Notice") advising Landlord that Tenant has satisfied the Second Milestone Requirement and requesting that Landlord reduce the amount of the Security Deposit then held by Landlord under the Lease by one-third (1/3).
