CONDEMNATION.

11.1

11.2   
PARTIAL CONDEMNATION. If any part of the Premises or Common Areas, but less than all, shall be acquired or taken pursuant to the power of eminent domain by any governmental entity, and such partial taking shall render that portion not so taken unsuitable for the business of Tenant as determined by Tenant, then this Lease and the Term herein shall cease and terminate as aforesaid. If such partial taking does not render the Premises unsuitable for the business of Tenant, then this Lease shall continue in effect except that the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall equitably abate and Landlord shall, upon receipt of the award in condemnation, make all necessary repair or alterations to the building in which the Premises are located or Common Areas so as to constitute the portion of the building or Common Areas not taken a complete architectural unit, but such work shall not exceed the scope of the work to be performed by Landlord in originally constructing the portion of the building housing the Premises and Common Areas, nor shall Landlord in any event be required to spend for such work an amount in excess of the amount received by Landlord as damages for the part of the Premises so taken. The provisions herein governing application of condemnation proceeds shall control over any mortgage now or hereafter encumbering the Premises.
 
11.3   
COMPENSATION. All compensation awarded or paid upon such a total or partial taking of the Premises shall belong to and be the property of Landlord without any participation by Tenant.

To the extent that the Tenant has a claim in  condemnation proceedings, as aforesaid, Tenant may claim from condemning authority, but not from Landlord, such compensation as may be recoverable by Tenant.

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not assign, mortgage or encumber this Lease, in whole or in part, without the prior written  consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably or in bad faith withheld, delayed or conditioned. Tenant shall have the right to sublease all or a portion of the Premises, with the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably or in bad faith withheld, delayed or conditioned, provided that the proposed sublessee meets the then current reasonable credit criteria of Landlord (which credit criteria shall not be more stringent than that which is customarily utilized by similarly situated lessors of similar commercial properties in Lee County, Florida), including, without limitation, a minimum net worth of not less than the minimum net worth of Tenant as of the Commencement Date of this Lease, with comparable business experience and reputation. The consent by Landlord to any assignment or subletting shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity for such consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. If this Lease is assigned or if the Premises or any part thereof are occupied by any party other than Tenant in violation of this Section, Landlord may collect Rent from the assignee, or occupant and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such assignment, underletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this provision or an acceptance of the assignee, undertenant or occupant as lessee, or as a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of the provisions on its part to be observed or performed herein. Notwithstanding any assignment or sublease, or Landlord's consent thereto, Tenant shall remain fully liable and shall not be released from performing any of the terms of this Lease. Tenant shall not permit any business to be operated in or from the Premises by any concessionaire or licensee without the prior written consent of Landlord, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.
 
13.
SUBORDINATION AND NON-DISTURBANCE. This Lease and Tenant's rights hereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate to any mortgage, deed to secure debt or other security instrument now or hereafter placed against the Real Property, the Office Building or the Premises, or any part thereof; and to all renewals, modifications, replacements, consolidations and extensions thereof; provided, however, that Landlord shall, prior to the Commencement Date, procure and deliver to Tenant a Non-Disturbance Agreement from any then existing mortgagee, pursuant to the terms which such mortgagee shall agree not to disturb Tenant's rights to possession under the terms of this Lease so long as Tenant remains current and is not in default hereunder. In furtherance of this section, Landlord and Tenant agree that this Lease shall act as a subordination agreement and shall automatically subordinate this Lease to any such mortgage, deed to secure or other security interest. Upon request of Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver any further instruments, acts, things or documents to evidence such subordination within ten (10) days after Landlord's request therefore; provided that the then existing mortgagee agrees to provide the Non-Disturbance Agreement contemplated herein.
 
14. 
ESTOPPEL STATEMENT. Within ten (10) days after Landlord's written request, Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver to Landlord a written statement confirming, to the extent that same is accurate, the following: (1) that this Lease is in full force and effect and has not been assigned, modified, supplemented or amended (except by such writings as shall be stated in Tenant's statement); (2) the commencement and termination dates of this Lease; (3) that all conditions under this Lease to be performed by Landlord have been satisfied (or any exceptions thereto); (4) that there are no defenses or offsets against the enforcement of this Lease by the Landlord, or stating those claimed by Tenant; (5) the amount of the then current monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent paid by Tenant; (6) the date to which Rent has been paid; (7) the amount of Security Deposit held by Landlord; and (8) such other information as may be reasonably requested by Landlord. Such statement shall be executed and delivered by Tenant from time to time as may be requested by Landlord. It is expressly understood that any such statement may be relied upon by Landlord and any prospective purchaser or lender. Tenant's failure to deliver such statement within the allotted time shall be conclusive upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect without modification, except as may be represented by Landlord, and that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance or other outstanding obligations of Landlord hereunder.

ACCESS TO PREMISES.

Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable advance notice of any planned entry upon the Premises, and shall not interfere with the conduct of Tenant's business from the Premises. Landlord shall be allowed to take all material in, to and upon the Premises that may be required therefore without the same constituting an eviction of Tenant in whole or in part and the Rents reserved shall in no way abate while said work is in progress so long as the same does not interrupt Tenant's business. If Tenant shall not be personally present to permit an entry into the Premises when for any reason an entry therein shall be permissible, Landlord may enter the same (or in the event of emergency or to prevent waste, by the use of force) without rendering Landlord liable therefore and without in any manner affecting the obligations of this Lease.

Tenant agrees to took solely to Landlord's estate and property in the Office Building (or the proceeds thereof) for the satisfaction of Tenant's remedies for the collection of a judgment or other judicial process requiring the payment of money by Landlord in the event of any default by Landlord hereunder, and no other property or assets of Landlord shall be subject to levy, execution, or other enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of Tenant's remedies under or with respect to this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant hereunder, or Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises.

Tenant's obligations to perform this provision shall survive the end of the Term of this Lease. If Tenant fails to remove its property which it is required to remove upon the expiration of this Lease, the said property, at Landlord's option, shall be deemed abandoned and shall become the property of Landlord.
 
20.  
HOLDING OVER. Any holding over after the expiration of this Term or any renewal term shall, by lapse of time or otherwise, be construed to be a tenancy at sufferance and Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to two (2) times the Rent, including Base Rent and Additional Rent, for all of the time Tenant shall retain possession of the Premises or any part thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall not operate as a waiver by the Landlord of any right of reentry herein provided, nor shall any act or receipt of money by Landlord in apparent affirmance of the holding over operate as a waiver of the right to terminate this Lease for any breach of covenant by the Tenant; nor shall any waiver by the Landlord of its right to terminate this Lease for any later breach of the same or another covenant.

Tenant's interest shall not be subject to levy or sale, and shall not be assignable by Tenant except as provided in Section 12 hereof.

28.  
OTHER TENANTS. Landlord does not warrant the continuous operation by any co-tenant in the Office Building. The cessation of operations by any co-tenant, pursuant to such Tenant's respective rights to vacate, shall not effect a right of termination in Tenant.

If, at any time after the Commencement Date of the Lease, any additional space (the "Additional Space") within the Office Building shall become vacant and available for leasing to the general public, Landlord shall first offer the Additional Space to Tenant by delivering written notice to Tenant of the availability of the Additional Space. Tenant shall have ten (10) days after receipt of Landlord's notice within which to elect to lease the Additional Space at the same rental rate in effect for the Premises, based upon the then current average rental rate in effect, and on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Lease, except that the term of the lease for the Additional Space shall expire contemporaneously with the expiration of the term of the Lease for the Premises. Further, Landlord shall have no obligation to construct any leasehold improvements on behalf of Tenant, and Tenant shall accept the Additional Space in its then current condition. Upon delivery of the Additional Space, the Lease shall be automatically amended to include the Additional Space, and each party shall, at the request of the other party, execute and deliver an amendment to the Lease to confirm the inclusion of the Additional Space.

(b)          
In  the  event  that  Tenant  does  not  timely  elect  to  lease  the Additional Space, then Landlord shall be free to offer the Additional Space for lease to any third party at a rental rate (after taking into account any rent or other lease concessions) no less than that offered to Tenant, without regard to the right of first offer granted to Tenant hereunder; provided, however, that Tenant shall retain the right of first offer for any other space within the Office Building that may subsequently become available during the term of the Lease. Nothing herein shall require Landlord to deny to any tenant the right to renew or extend its lease at the expiration of the term thereof. Further, the right of first offer set forth herein shall not apply during the last twenty-four (24) months of the Lease Term or if Tenant has, at any time, exercised either the early termination option set forth in Section 5 of this Addendum to Lease or the relocation option set forth in Section 6 of this Addendum to Lease.

Within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of a Triggering Event, as defined below, Tenant shall have the right to terminate the Lease as to all or any portion of the Premises, upon delivery of not less than sixty (60) days notice (the "Early Termination Date"), and thereby be released from any further obligation thereunder, upon payment to Landlord of an Early Termination Payment in an amount equal to the lesser of:
 
(1)      
One-half (1/2) of the remaining Rent (including Base Rent and CAM) for the remaining term of the Lease for the portion of the Premises to be surrendered to Landlord; or

(b)          
The Early Termination Payment shall be due and payable as a single lump sum payment on or before the Early Termination Date.

(c)          
For purposes of this section, the term "Triggering Event" shall mean any one or more of the following events: (i) a bona fide sale of a majority of the voting common stock of the Tenant in a single transaction; (ii) a bona fide sale of substantially all of the assets of the Tenant in a single transaction; (iii) the merger or consolidation of Tenant with another business entity resulting in a change of majority ownership; or (iv) the relocation by Tenant of all or a portion of its business operations to a geographic location other than Lee, Collier, Sarasota or Charlotte Counties, Florida.

Tenant shall have the option, exercisable by delivery of written notice to Landlord of relocating from all or any portion of the 3rd and 4th floors of the Office Building to alternative space (the "Alternative Space"), at a lower rental rate, as follows:

(1)       
at any time during the first three (3) Lease Years, within a building(s) to be constructed by Landlord within the Summerlin Center Professional Park; or

(2)       
at any time during the term of the Lease, within a building to be constructed by Landlord within a five (5) mile  radius  of  the  Premises.
 
The Alternative Space shall be of comparable or greater square footage as the vacated space, and each party's obligation hereunder shall be subject to the ability of the parties to reach final agreement on the plans and specifications for the Alternative Space.

The Base Rent for the Alternative Space shall be calculated based upon the market rental rate for comparable space within the general vicinity of the Office Building (the "Market Rate"). In the event that the parties are unable to reach agreement on the Base Rent for the Alternative Space, then, at the request of either party, Landlord and Tenant shall mutually select an independent MAI appraiser to determine the Market Rate. If the parties are unable to agree upon a single appraiser, then they shall each select one appraiser, and the two (2) appraisers shall select a third appraiser to determine the Market Rate. Any appraisal costs shall be borne equally by the parties.

Upon  delivery  of  the  Alternative  Space,  Tenant  shall  have  a period of thirty (30) days to vacate the portion of the Premises to be surrendered to Landlord, at which time the Base Rent shall be reduced by an amount equal to the portion of the Base Rent attributable to the portion of the Premises returned to Landlord and increased by the Base Rent attributable to the Alternative Space, with a corresponding adjustment in Tenant's Pro Rata Share of the Common Area Maintenance Expenses.

Alternative Space to Tenant, each party shall, at the request of the other party, execute and deliver an amendment to the Lease to confirm the exclusion of the portion of the Premises vacated by Tenant and the inclusion of the Alternative Space.
 
(d)          
In the event that Tenant relocates less than an entire floor, the portion of the Premises returned to Landlord shall consist of at least 5,000 sq. ft. of contiguous space with adequate access to the common areas.

7.       
EXPANSION  SPACE.

(a)          
In the event that Tenant shall, at any time during the first three (3) Lease years, determine that Tenant will require any additional space, but in no event less than 5,000 sq. ft. and in no event more than 30,000 sq. ft. (the "Expansion Space"), then Tenant shall so notify Landlord. Tenant's notice shall identify the amount of Expansion Space required by Tenant and shall identify any special needs that Tenant may have for the Expansion Space. Upon receipt of Tenant's notice, Landlord shall endeavor to provide Tenant with suitable Expansion Space, reasonably acceptable to Tenant, within the Office Building or, within a building(s) to be constructed by Landlord within the Summerlin Center Professional  Park.
 
(b)          
The Base Rent for the Expansion Space shall be calculated based upon the market rental rate for comparable space within the general vicinity of the Expansion Space (the "Market Rate"). In the event that the parties are unable to reach agreement on the Base Rent for the Expansion Space, then, at the request of either party, Landlord and Tenant shall mutually select an independent MAI appraiser to determine the Market Rate. If the parties are unable to agree upon a single appraiser, then they shall each select one appraiser, and the two (2) appraisers shall select a third appraiser to determine the Market Rate. Any appraisal costs shall be borne equally by the parties.

(c)          
Upon delivery of the Expansion Space to Tenant, the Lease shall be automatically amended to include the Expansion Space, and each party shall, at the request of the other party, execute and deliver an amendment to the Lease to confirm the inclusion of the Expansion Space. Alternatively, Tenant shall, at the request of Landlord execute a separate lease for the Expansion Space containing terms and conditions substantially the same as the Lease.
 
(d)          
If Landlord is not able to provide Tenant with the Expansion Space, within the Office Building or within Summerlin Center Professional Park, within twelve (12) months after the receipt of notice from Tenant, then Tenant shall have the right, exercisable within sixty (60) days thereafter, to notify Landlord of its election to seek alternative space to satisfy its requirements for the Expansion Space and/or to terminate this Lease. In the event that Tenant elects to terminate the Lease, then Tenant shall return the Premises to Landlord in the condition required by the Lease, within ninety (90) days after delivery of Tenant's notice. Provided that Tenant returns the Premises to Landlord in the condition required by the Lease, Tenant shall be entitled to the return of its security deposit and shall be discharged from any further obligation under the Lease from and after the termination date.
 
(e)          
To the extent that Landlord has provided Tenant with Expansion Space under this Section 7, Landlord shall be relieved of its obligation to provide Tenant with Alternative Space pursuant to Section 6.
