(b)                                 Upon the happening of an Event of Default as defined in paragraph (a) hereof, Landlord, in addition to any and all legal and equitable remedies it may have, shall have the following remedies:

(i)                                     To distrain for any rent or additional rent in default;

(ii)                                  At any time after an Event of Default, without notice, to declare this Lease terminated and enter the premises with or without legal process; and in such event Landlord shall have the benefit of all provisions of law now or hereafter in force respecting the speedy recovery of possession from Tenant’s holding over or proceedings in forcible entry and detainer, and Tenant waives any and all provisions for notice under such laws; and

(iii)                               At any time after an Event of Default, without notice, to re-enter the premises without terminating the Lease, with the benefit of all laws referred to in clause (ii) above.

Notwithstanding such re-entry and/or termination, Tenant shall immediately be liable to Landlord for the sum of the following: (a) all rent and additional rent then in arrears, without apportionment to the termination date; (b) all other liabilities of Tenant and damages sustained by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s default, including, but not limited to, the reasonable costs of reletting the premises and any broker’s commissions payable as a result thereof; (c) all of Landlord’s costs and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) in connection with such default and recovery of possession; (d) the difference between the rent reserved under this Lease for the balance of the term and the fair rental value of the premises for the balance of the term to be determined as of the date of re-entry; or at Landlord’s option in lieu thereof, Tenant shall pay the amount of the rent and additional rent reserved under this Lease at the times herein stipulated for payment of rent and additional rent for the balance of the term, less any amount received by Landlord during such period from others to whom the premises may be rented on such terms and conditions and at such rentals as Landlord, in its sole discretion, shall deem proper; and (e) any other damages recoverable by law.  In the event Landlord brings any action against Tenant to enforce compliance by Tenant with any covenant or condition of this Lease, including the covenant to pay rent, and it is judicially determined that Tenant has defaulted in performing or complying with any such covenant or condition, then and in such event, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in bringing and prosecuting such action against Tenant, including Landlord’s attorney’s fees.

12

(c)                                  Tenant hereby waives any right to recover possession of the premises or to redeem or reinstate this Lease, which the Tenant would otherwise have after Landlord recovers possession of the premises in accordance with this Section 13.

(d)                                 In the event Tenant fails to pay Landlord any rental payment or other charge due hereunder on the date due, Tenant shall pay a late charge equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the rental payment or other such charge, which late charge shall be collectible as additional rent and shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord within five (5) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant assessing the same.  In addition, any such rental payment or other charge which is delinquent for five (5) days or more, shall bear interest from the date on which same was due at a rate equal to four (4) percentage points above the prime rate of interest published by the Wall Street Journal on the date closest to the date on which any such payment was due.

14.                               Damage or Destruction.

(a)                                  If, during the Lease term, the premises hereby leased are damaged by fire or other casualty, but not to the extent that Tenant is prevented from carrying on business in more than ten percent (10%) of the premises, Landlord shall promptly cause such damage to be repaired; if such damage renders a substantial portion of the premises untenantable, the rent reserved hereunder shall be reduced during the period of its untenantability proportionately to the amount by which the area so rendered untenantable bears to the entire gross rentable area of the premises, and such reduction shall be apportioned from the date of the casualty to the date when the premises are rendered fully tenantable.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event such fire or other casualty damages or destroys any of Tenant’s leasehold improvements, alterations, betterments, fixtures or equipment, Tenant shall, at its sole election, cause the same to be repaired or restored at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and Landlord shall have no liability for the restoration or repair thereof.

(b)                                 If, during the Lease term, the premises or a substantial portion of the premises (more than ten percent (10%) of the premises) are rendered wholly untenantable as the result of fire, the elements, unavoidable accident or other casualty, or Tenant is otherwise unable to use the premises for its intended purpose and such cannot be repaired or restored to use within one hundred twenty (120) days after the casualty, the Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease on written notice to Landlord.  If Tenant does not elect to termination this Lease, then Landlord shall have the option either to restore the premises to their condition immediately prior to the casualty or to terminate this Lease, such option shall be exercised by Landlord by written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the fire, accident or casualty.  In the event of such termination, the rent reserved hereunder shall be adjusted as of the date of the fire, accident or casualty.  If Landlord elects to restore the premises, such restoration shall be completed as promptly as reasonably possible and the rent reserved hereunder shall abate until the premises are again rendered tenantable.

15.                               Possession.

In case this Lease provides for a specifically designated commencement date, and if possession of the premises, in whole or in part, cannot be given to Tenant on or before such commencement date, Landlord agrees to abate the rent proportionately until possession is given to Tenant, and

13

Tenant agrees to accept such pro rata abatement as liquidated damages for the failure to obtain possession on the commencement date herein specified.  If possession of the premises is not given to Tenant by July 1, 2007, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease immediately upon written notice to Landlord, and both parties be released of all of their obligations under this Lease.  The parties hereto covenant and agree that if the term of this Lease commences on a date other than the date herein specified, they will, upon the request of either of them, execute an agreement in recordable form setting forth the new commencement and termination dates of the Lease term.  Under no circumstances shall Landlord be under any liability for failure to deliver possession of the premises to Tenant on the date herein specified.

16.                               Exterior of Premises – Signs.

(a)                                  Tenant covenants and agrees that it will not place or permit any window display, sign, billboard, marquee, lights, awning, poles, placard, advertising matter, or other thing of any kind, in or about the exterior of the premises or the Building (including without limitation any displays on or in any motor vehicles used by Tenant, its employees, agents and servants), nor paint or make any change in, to or on the exterior of said premises to change the uniform architecture, paint or appearance of the Building, without in each such instance obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed, and, if applicable, of any owners’ association or similar entity which may govern the use of the premises.  Tenant shall obtain, at Tenant’s expense, all permits required for such installation.  Tenant further agrees to maintain any sign, billboard, marquee, awning, decoration, placard, or advertising matter or other thing of any kind as may be approved by Landlord in good condition and repair at all times.

(b)                                 Tenant further covenants and agrees not to pile or place anything on the sidewalk, parking lot or other exterior portion of the premises or Building in the front, rear or sides of the building other than temporarily during normal business hours, nor block any sidewalk, parking lot or other exterior portion of the premises or Building, nor do anything that directly or indirectly will materially interfere with any of the rights of ingress or egress or of light from any other tenant, nor do anything which will, in any way, change the uniform and general design of the Building or the Property.

17.                               Relocation. Intentionally deleted.

18.                               For Rent/Sale Signs.

Landlord shall have the right to place a “For Rent” sign on any portion of said premises for six (6) months prior to termination of this Lease and to place a “For Sale” sign thereon at any time.  During such six-month period, Landlord may show the premises and all parts thereof to prospective tenants between the hours of 9:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. on any day except Sunday or any legal holiday on which Tenant shall not be open for business.

19.                               Water and Other Damages.

Landlord shall not be liable for, and Landlord is hereby released and relieved from, all claims and demands of any kind by reason of or resulting from damage or injury to person or property of Tenant or any other party, directly or indirectly caused by (a) dampness, water, rain or snow, in any part of the premises or in any part of any other property of Landlord or of others, and/or

14

(b) falling plaster, steam, gas, electricity, or any leak or break in any part of the premises or from any pipes, appliances or plumbing or from sewers or the street or subsurface or from any other place or any part of any other property of Landlord or of others or in the pipes of the plumbing or heating facilities thereof, no matter how caused.

20.                               Right of Entry.

Landlord and its agents, servants, employees, including any builder or contractor employed by Landlord, shall have the absolute and unconditional right, license and permission, at any and all reasonable times, to enter and inspect the premises or any part thereof, and at the option of Landlord, to make such reasonable repairs and/or replacements in the premises as Landlord may deem necessary or proper and/or to enforce and carry out any provision of this Lease.

21.                               Termination of Term.

(a)                                  It is agreed that the term of this Lease shall expire and terminate at the end of the original term hereof (or at the expiration of the last renewal term, if this Lease contains a renewal option and the same is properly exercised), without the necessity of any notice by or to any of the parties hereto, unless otherwise provided herein.  If Tenant shall occupy the premises after such expiration or termination, it is understood that Tenant shall hold the premises as a tenant from month-to-month, subject to all the other terms and conditions of this Lease, at an amount equal to 125% the highest monthly rental installment reserved in this Lease, plus all additional rent required under this Lease.  Landlord shall, upon such expiration or termination of this Lease, be entitled to the benefit of all public general or local laws relating to the speedy recovery of possession of lands and tenements held over by Tenants that may be now in force or may hereafter be enacted.

(b)                                 At the time Tenant surrenders the premises to Landlord, the premises shall be in compliance with all applicable building code requirements insofar as such requirements relate to Tenant’s use and occupancy of the premises or to any installations, alterations or improvements made by Tenant thereto.

22.                               Condemnation.

(a)                                  If, during the term of this Lease, all or a substantial part of the premises shall be taken by police power or under power of eminent domain, this Lease shall terminate as of, and the rent (basic and additional) shall be apportioned to and abate from and after, the date of taking.  Tenant shall have no right to participate in any award or damages for such taking and hereby assigns all of its right, title and interest therein to Landlord.  For the purposes of this paragraph, “a substantial part of the premises” shall mean such part that the remainder thereof is rendered inadequate for Tenant’s business and that such remainder cannot practicably be repaired and improved so as to be rendered adequate to permit Tenant to carry on its business with substantially the same efficiency as before the taking.

(b)                                 If, during the Lease term, less than a substantial part of the premises (as hereinabove defined) is taken by police power or under power of eminent domain, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect according to its terms; and Tenant shall not have the right to participate in any award or damages for such taking and Tenant hereby assigns all of its right, title and interest in and to the award to Landlord.  In such event Landlord shall, at its expense,

15

promptly make such repairs and improvements as shall be necessary to make the remainder of the premises adequate to permit Tenant to carry on its business to substantially the same extent and with substantially the same efficiency as before the taking; provided that in no event shall Landlord be required to expend an amount in excess of the award received by Landlord for such taking.  If, as a result of such taking, any part of the premises is rendered permanently unusable, the basic annual rent reserved hereunder shall be reduced in such amount as may be fair and reasonable, which amount shall not exceed the proportion which the area so taken or made unusable bears to the total area which was usable by Tenant prior to the taking.  If the taking does not render any part of the premises unusable, there shall be no abatement of rent.

(c)                                  For purposes of this section, “taking” shall include a negotiated sale or lease and transfer of possession to a condemning authority under bona fide threat of condemnation for public use, and Landlord alone shall have the right to negotiate with the condemning authority and conduct and settle all litigation connected with the condemnation.  As hereinabove used, the words “award or damages” shall, in the event of such sale or settlement, include the purchase or settlement price.

(d)                                 Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent Tenant from claiming and receiving from the condemning authority, if legally payable, compensation for the taking of Tenant’s own tangible property and such amount as may be payable by statute or ordinance toward Tenant’s damages for Tenant’s loss of business, removal and relocation expenses.

23.                               Subordination.

This Lease shall be subject to and subordinate at all times to the lien of any mortgages and/or deeds of trust upon the Building now or hereafter to be made, unless the mortgagee or holder of the deed of trust elects to have Tenant’s interest hereunder superior to the interest of the mortgagee or holder of such deed of trust.  This subordination provision shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required.  The Tenant agrees to execute any documents necessary, subsequent to the execution of this Lease, which are required to effect such subordination.  Tenant further hereby constitutes and appoints Landlord as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact to execute any such instrument for and on behalf of Tenant.

24.                               Attornment.

(a)                                  If Landlord assigns this Lease or the rents hereunder to a creditor as security for a debt, Tenant shall, after notice of such assignment and upon demand by Landlord or the assignee, pay all sums thereafter becoming due to Landlord hereunder either to Landlord or to such assignee, as required by such notice.  Tenant shall also, upon receipt of such notice, have all policies of insurance required hereunder endorsed so as to protect the assignee’s interest as it may appear and shall deliver such policies, or certificates thereof, to the assignee.

(b)                                 In the event the premises are sold at any foreclosure sale or sales, by virtue of any judicial proceedings or otherwise, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect and Tenant agrees, upon request, to attorn to and acknowledge the foreclosure purchaser or purchasers at such sale as the landlord hereunder.  It is understood that such purchaser or purchasers may, at its or their option, terminate this Lease immediately, upon giving written notice thereof to Tenant.

16

25.                               Notices to Mortgagee.

Tenant agrees that a copy of any notice of default from Tenant to Landlord shall also be sent to the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust on the premises, provided Tenant has been given written notice of the fact that such mortgage or deed of trust has been made; and Tenant shall allow said mortgagee or holder of the deed of trust a reasonable time, not to exceed ninety (90) days from the receipt of said notice, to cure, or cause to be cured, any such default.  If such default cannot reasonably be cured within the time specified herein, then such additional time as may be necessary shall be allowed, provided the curing of such default is commenced and diligently pursued (including, but not limited to, commencement of foreclosure proceedings if necessary to effect such cure) in which event this Lease shall not be terminated while such remedies are being thus diligently pursued.

26.                               Estoppel Certificate.

Tenant shall, at any time and from time to time during the term of this Lease or any renewal thereof, upon request of Landlord, execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord (or its designee) a statement in writing, certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect if such is the fact (or if there have been any modifications thereof, that the same is in full force as modified and stating the modifications) and the dates to which the rents and other charges have been paid in advance, if any.  Any such statement delivered pursuant to this paragraph may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser of the estate of Landlord or by the mortgagee or any assignee of any mortgagee or the trustee or beneficiary of any deed of trust constituting a lien on the premises or the Building.

27.                               Right to Perform Covenants.

If either party shall fail to perform any covenant or duty required of it by this Lease beyond an applicable cure period or by law, the non-defaulting shall have the right (but not the obligation) to perform the same, and if necessary to enter the premises or Property for such purposes without notice.  The reasonable cost thereof to the non-defaulting party shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder payable by the defaulting party, shall be due and payable by the defaulting party upon demand.

28.                               Non-Waiver of Future Enforcement.

The receipt of rent by Landlord, with knowledge of any breach of this Lease by Tenant or of any default on the part of Tenant in the observance or performance of any of the conditions or covenants of this Lease, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any provision of this Lease, including the provision breached.  No failure on the part of Landlord or of the Tenant to enforce any covenant or provision herein contained nor any waiver of any right hereunder by Landlord or Tenant shall discharge or invalidate such covenant or provision or shall affect the right of Landlord or Tenant to enforce the same in the event of any subsequent default.  The receipt by Landlord of any rent or any sum of money or any other consideration hereunder paid by Tenant after the termination, in any manner, of the term herein demised, or after the giving by Landlord of any notice hereunder to effect such termination, shall not reinstate, continue or extend the term herein demised, or destroy, or in any manner impair the efficacy of any such notice of termination as may have been given hereunder by Landlord to Tenant prior to the receipt of any such sum of money or other consideration, unless so agreed to in writing and signed by

17

Landlord.  Neither acceptance of the keys nor any other act or thing done by Landlord or any agent or employee during the term herein demised shall be deemed to be an acceptance of a surrender of the premises, excepting only an agreement in writing signed by Landlord accepting or agreeing to accept such surrender.

29.                               Personal Property Taxes.

Tenant shall be responsible for and shall pay any taxes or assessments levied or assessed during the term of this Lease against any leasehold interest of Tenant or personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant of any kind, owned by Tenant or placed in, upon or about the premises by Tenant.

30.                               Recordation of Lease.

Tenant agrees that it will, upon Landlord’s request, execute a Memorandum of this Lease in a form suitable for recording under the applicable law of the jurisdiction in which the premises are located.  The party recording such Memorandum of Lease shall pay all costs of recordation, including any transfer or recordation taxes thereon.

31.                               Severability.

(a)                                  It is agreed that, for the purpose of any suit brought or based on this Lease, this Lease shall be construed to be a divisible contract, to the end that successive actions may be maintained thereon as successive periodic sums shall mature or be due hereunder, and it is further agreed that failure to include in any suit or action any sum or sums then matured or due shall not be a bar to the maintenance of any suit or action for the recovery of said sum or sums so omitted; and Tenant agrees that it will not, in any suit or suits brought or arising under this Lease for a matured sum for which judgment has not previously been obtained or entered, plead, rely on or interpose the defenses of res adjudicata, former recovery, extinguishment, merger, election of remedies or other similar defense as a default to said suit or suits.

(b)                                 If any term, clause or provision of this Lease is declared invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity of the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby but shall remain in full force and effect.

32.                               Non-Waiver.

It is understood and agreed that nothing herein shall be construed to be a waiver of any of the terms, covenants or conditions herein contained, unless the same shall be in writing, signed by the party to be charged with such waiver, and no waiver of the breach of any covenant herein shall be construed as a waiver of such covenant or any subsequent breach thereof.  No mention in this Lease of any specific right or remedy shall preclude Landlord from exercising any other right or from having any other remedy or from maintaining any action to which it may be otherwise entitled either at law or in equity.

33.                               Successors and Assigns.

(a)                                  Except as herein provided, this Lease and the covenants and conditions herein contained shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon Landlord, its successors and assigns; shall be binding upon Tenant, its successors and assigns (including without limitation

18

any trustee in bankruptcy or debtor-in-possession, and any assignee of the same); and shall inure to the benefit of Tenant and only such assignees of Tenant to whom an assignment by Tenant has been consented to in writing by Landlord.  In the event more than one person, firm or corporation is named herein as Tenant, the liability of all parties named herein as Tenant shall be joint and several.

(b)                                 In the event Landlord’s interest under this Lease is transferred or assigned and written notice thereof is given to Tenant, Landlord (or any subsequent assignee or transferee of Landlord’s interest under this Lease who gives such notice to Tenant) shall automatically be relieved and released from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance from all liability thereafter accruing or arising hereunder.  Further, the liability of Landlord, its successors and assigns, under this Lease shall at all times be limited solely to Landlord’s interest in the land and improvements comprising the Building and in the event the owner of Landlord’s interest in this Lease is at any time an individual, partnership, joint venture or unincorporated association, Tenant agrees that such individual or the members or partners of such partnership, joint venture or unincorporated association shall not be personally or individually liable or responsible for the performance of any of Landlord’s obligations hereunder.

34.                               Security Deposit. Intentionally deleted.

35.                               Bankruptcy.

(a)                                  An “Act of Bankruptcy” shall mean:

(i)                                     the application by Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant or its or their consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator of Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant or a substantial part of its or their assets;

(ii)                                  the filing of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or the admission in writing by Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant of its inability to pay its debts as they become due;

(iii)                               the making by Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant of an assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

(iv)                              the filing of a petition or an answer seeking a reorganization or an arrangement with its creditors or an attempt to take advantage of any insolvency law;

(v)                                 the filing of an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant in any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding;

(vi)                              the entering of an order, judgment or decree by any court of competent jurisdiction adjudicating Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant, as a bankrupt or an insolvent, approving a petition seeking such a reorganization, or appointing a receiver, trustee or liquidator of Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant or of all or a substantial part of its or their assets; or

19

(vii)                           the commencing of any proceeding under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, readjustment, receivership or similar law, and the continuation of such order, judgment, decree or proceeding unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days.

(b)                                 Upon the occurrence of an Act of Bankruptcy, this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder shall automatically terminate with the same force and effect as if the date of any such event were the date stated herein for the expiration of the term, and Tenant shall vacate and surrender the premises, but shall remain liable as herein provided.  Landlord reserves any and all remedies provided herein or at law or in equity.

(c)                                  If this Lease is not terminated in accordance with subsection (b) above because such termination is not permitted under the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §101 et seq. (the “Bankruptcy Code”), then upon the filing of a petition by or against Tenant under the Bankruptcy Code, Tenant, as debtor and as debtor in possession, and any trustee who may be appointed, agree:

(i)                                     To perform each and every obligation of Tenant under this Lease until such time as this Lease is either rejected or assumed by order of the United States Bankruptcy Court;

(ii)                                  To pay monthly in advance on the first day of each month as reasonable compensation for use and occupancy of the premises an amount equal to all basic rent and all additional rent reserved hereunder;

(iii)                               To reject or assume this Lease within sixty (60) days of the filing of such petition under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or within thirty (30) days of the filing of a petition under any other Chapter;

(iv)                              To give Landlord at least forty-five (45) days prior written notice of any proceeding relating to any assumption of this Lease;

(v)                                 To give Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any abandonment of the premises, any such abandonment to be deemed conclusively a rejection of this Lease;

(vi)                              To be deemed conclusively to have rejected this Lease in the event of the failure to comply with any of the above; and

(vii)                           To be deemed to have consented to the entry of an order by an appropriate United States Bankruptcy Court providing all of the above, waiving notice and hearing of the entry of same.

(d)                                 Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, all amounts payable by Tenant to or on behalf of Landlord hereunder, whether or not expressly denominated

20

as rent, shall constitute “rent” for the purposes of Section 502(b)(7) of the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s bankruptcy.

(e)                                  In the event that this Lease is assigned to any person or entity pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, any and all monies or other consideration payable or otherwise to be delivered in connection with such assignment shall be paid or delivered to Landlord, shall be and remain the exclusive property of Landlord, and shall not constitute property of Tenant or of the estate of Tenant within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code.  Any and all monies or other consideration constituting Landlord’s property under the preceding sentence not directly paid or delivered to Landlord shall be held in trust for the benefit of Landlord by the recipient thereof and be promptly paid to or turned over to Landlord.  If Tenant assumes this Lease and proposes to assign the same pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code to any person or entity who shall have made a bona fide offer to accept an assignment of this Lease on terms acceptable to Tenant, the notice of such proposed assignment setting forth (i) the name and address of such person; (ii) all of the terms and conditions of such offer; and (iii) adequate assurance to be provided to Landlord to assure such assignee’s future performance under the Lease, including, without limitation, the assurance referred to in Section 365(b)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, or any such successor or substitute legislation or rule thereto, shall be given to landlord by Tenant no later than twenty (20) days after receipt by Tenant, but in any event no later than ten (10) days prior to the date that Tenant shall make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for authority and approval to enter into such assignment and assumption, and Landlord shall thereupon have the prior right and option, to be exercised by notice to Tenant given at any time prior to the effective date of such proposed assignment, to accept an assignment of this Lease upon the same terms and conditions and for the same consideration, if any, as the bona fide offer made by such person, less any brokerage commission which may be payable out of the consideration to be paid by such person for the assignment of this Lease.  Any person or entity to which this Lease is assigned pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code shall be deemed without further act or deed to have assumed all of the obligations arising under this Lease on and after the date of such assignment.  Any such assignee shall, upon demand, execute and deliver to Landlord an instrument confirming such assumption.

(f)                                    Nothing contained in this Section 35 shall be deemed in any manner to limited Landlord’s rights and remedies under the Bankruptcy Code, as presently existing or as may hereafter be amended.

(g)                                 No default under this Lease by Tenant, either prior to or subsequent to any Act of Bankruptcy, shall be deemed to have been waived unless expressly done so in writing by Landlord.

(h)                                 Neither Tenant’s interest in this Lease, nor any estate created hereby in Tenant nor any interest herein or therein, shall pass to any trustee or receiver or assignee for the benefit of creditors or otherwise by operation of law except as may specifically be provided by the Bankruptcy Code.

21

36.                               Broker’s Commission.

Tenant and Landlord warrant that they have dealt with no broker in connection with this Lease except Richie Blue of Blue and Obrecht, and agree to indemnify, defend and save the other harmless from all claims, actions, damages, costs and expenses and liability whatsoever, including reasonable attorney’s fees, that may arise from any breach of this warranty.  Landlord shall be solely responsible for any fee or commission due to the foregoing named broker and/or agent.

37.                               Rules and Regulations.

Tenant shall faithfully observe and comply with the rules and regulations attached hereto as Exhibit C, and with any amendments or modifications thereto that Landlord shall, from time to time, promulgate with respect to the Building.  Any such amendments or modifications to the rules and regulations shall be binding upon Tenant upon delivery of a copy of them to Tenant.  Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the nonperformance of any of said rules and regulations by any other tenants or occupants.

38.                               Environmental Provisions.

(a)                                  Tenant and its successors and assigns shall use and operate the building, the property and the leased premises, respectively, at all times during the term hereof, under and in compliance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which the premises are located and in compliance with all applicable Environmental Legal Requirements.  “Environmental Legal Requirements” shall mean any applicable law relating to public health, safety or the environment, including, without limitation, relating to releases, discharges or omissions to air, water, land or groundwater, to the withdrawal or use of groundwater, to the use and handling of polychlorinated biphenyls (“PCBs”) or asbestos, or asbestos containing products, to the disposal, treatment, storage or management of solid or other hazardous or harmful wastes or to exposure to toxic, hazardous or other harmful materials (collectively “Hazardous Substances”) to the handling, transportation, discharge or release of gaseous or liquid substance and any regulation or final order or directive issues pursuant to such statute or ordinance, in each case applicable to the premises, the building or its operation, construction or modification, including without limitation the following: the Clean Air Act, the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (“FWPCA”), the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, as amended by the Solid and Hazardous Waste Amendments of 1984 (“RCRA”), the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986, the Solid Waste Disposal Act, and any state statutes addressing similar matters, and any state statute providing for financial responsibility for clean-up or other actions with respect to the release or threatened release of any of the above-referenced substances.

(b)                                 Tenant hereby indemnifies, defends and saves Landlord harmless from all liabilities and claims arising from the use, storage or placement of any Hazardous Substances upon the premises or elsewhere within the building or property of Landlord (if brought or placed thereon by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees); and Tenant shall (i) within fifteen (15) days after written notice thereof, take or cause to be taken, at its sole expense, such actions as may be necessary to comply with all Environmental Legal Requirements and (ii)
