ARTICLE 5
BASE RENT AND ADDITIONAL RENT

5.1 Base Rent.

Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord during the Lease Term, without any setoff or deduction whatsoever the Base Rent, and all such other sums of money as shall become due hereunder as Additional Rent. Should Tenant fail to pay any Additional Rent in a timely manner, Landlord shall be entitled to exercise all such rights and remedies as are herein provided in the case of the nonpayment of Base Rent. The annual Base Rent for each calendar year or portion thereof during the Lease Term, together with estimated Additional Rent pursuant to Article 6 hereof then in effect, shall be due and payable in advance, in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender at the time of payment, in twelve (12) equal installments on the first day of each calendar month during the initial term of this Lease and any extensions or renewals thereof, and Tenant hereby agrees to pay such Base Rent and Additional Rent to Landlord at Landlord’s address provided herein (or such other address as may be designated by Landlord in writing from time to time) monthly, in advance, and without demand. If the Lease Term commences on a day other than the first day of a month or terminates on a day other than the last day of a month, then the installments of Base Rent and Additional Rent for such month or months shall be prorated, based on the number of days in such month.

5.2 Intentionally Omitted.

5.3 Additional Rent.

All charges payable by Tenant hereunder other than Base Rent (including, without limitation, Operating Expenses payable pursuant to Article 6 below) are called “Additional Rent.” Unless this Lease provides otherwise, all Additional Rent shall be paid with the next monthly installment of Base Rent. Base Rent and Additional Rent are sometimes referred to collectively as “Rent.”

5.4 Interest on Late Payments.

All installments of Rent not paid when due and payable shall bear interest at the Lease Interest Rate from the date due until paid. In addition, if any installment of Rent is not received by Landlord within five (5) days after notice that said amount is past due from Landlord to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, five percent (5%) of the overdue amount as a late charge. Landlord’s acceptance of any late charge or interest shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to the overdue amount nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or any law now or hereafter in effect.

ARTICLE 6
BASE RENT ADJUSTMENT

The Base Rent payable hereunder shall be adjusted upward from time to time in accordance with the following provisions:

(a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord as an adjustment to Rent, an amount equal to the excess (the “Excess”) from time to time of total annual Operating Expenses per square foot of Rentable Area of the Premises, as Grossed-Up, over and above the Expense Stop. The Excess shall be obtained by multiplying (i) the difference between the annual Operating Expense per square foot of Rentable Area in the Premises and the Expense Stop, by (ii) the total Rentable Area of the Premises as set forth in Section 1.15. Such amount shall be paid in advance in monthly installments on the same dates as Base Rent is due and payable hereunder based on Landlord’s notice delivered to Tenant from time to time setting forth Landlord’s good faith estimate of the Operating Expenses for

10

the current calendar year. Landlord shall have the right to adjust such amount no more than once a year to reflect any changes in Landlord’s estimate of Operating Expenses.

(b) By April 1 of each calendar year during the Lease Term, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement (“Actual Statement”) of Landlord’s annual Operating Expenses, as Grossed-Up, for the previous calendar year. If for any calendar year the amounts collected from Tenant for the prior year, as a result of Landlord’s estimate of Operating Expenses, exceeds the amount of the Excess actually due during such prior year, then Landlord shall refund to Tenant any overpayment (or at Landlord’s option, apply such amount against Rent due or to become due hereunder). Likewise, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, any underpayment with respect to the prior year.

(c) In the event of any good faith dispute as to the amount of the Excess as set forth in the statement of actual Operating Expenses, Tenant shall have the right, no more frequently than once per calendar year, after reasonable notice to Landlord and at reasonable times, to inspect and photocopy Landlord’s Operating Expenses records at Landlord’s offices. If, after such inspection and photocopy, Tenant continues, in good faith, to dispute the amount of the Excess as set forth in said statement, Tenant shall be entitled not later than one (1) year following Tenant’s receipt of an Actual Statement to retain a national, independent, certified public accountant who is not contracted on a contingency fee basis and is mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant to audit Landlord’s Operating Expenses records with respect to the calendar year covered by Actual Statement to determine the proper amount of the Excess. Landlord shall be entitled to review the results of such audit promptly after completion of same. If such audit proves that Landlord has overcharged Tenant, then within fifteen (15) days after the results of the audit are made available to Landlord, Landlord shall credit Tenant the amount of such overcharge toward the payments of Base Rent and Additional Rent next coming due under this Lease. If the results of such audit prove that Landlord has undercharged Tenant, then within fifteen (15) days after the results of the audit are made available to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any such undercharge. Tenant agrees to pay the cost of such audit, provided that Landlord shall reimburse Tenant the amount of such cost if the results of such audit prove that Landlord’s determination of the Excess (as set forth in the Actual Statement) was in error by more than six percent (6%). If Tenant does not request an audit in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c) within one (1) year after Tenant’s receipt of an Actual Statement, such Actual Statement shall be conclusively binding upon Tenant. Landlord shall be required to maintain records of all Operating Expenses for three (3) years following the issuance of the Operating Expense statement for such Operating Expenses. The payment by Tenant of any amounts pursuant to this Article shall not preclude Tenant from questioning the correctness of any such statement.

ARTICLE 7

Landlord agrees to furnish Tenant the following services as an Operating Expense for the Building (except as specifically provided below):

(a) Hot and cold water at those points of supply provided for general use of other tenants in the Building, central heat and air conditioning in season, at such temperatures and in such amounts as are considered by Landlord to be standard or as required by governmental authority; provided, however, heating and air conditioning service at times other than “Normal Business Hours” for the Building (which are 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Mondays through Fridays and 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Saturdays, exclusive of federally recognized holidays), shall be furnished upon receipt of a phone request by Tenant utilizing Landlord’s computer which permits Tenant to make phone requests for such heating and air conditioning services.

(e) All Building Standard fluorescent bulb replacement in the Premises and fluorescent and incandescent bulb replacement in the Common Areas of the Building.

(f) Security in the form of limited access to the Building during other than Normal Business Hours shall be provided in such form as Landlord deems appropriate. Landlord may charge a fee for card keys or other security devices. Landlord, however, shall have no liability to Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees or licensees for losses due to theft or burglary, or for damages resulting from the actions of unauthorized persons on the Premises or in the Building and Landlord shall not be required to insure against any such losses. Tenant shall cooperate fully in Landlord’s efforts to maintain security in the Building and shall follow all regulations promulgated by Landlord which respect thereto.

The failure by Landlord to any extent to furnish, or the interruption or termination of these defined services in whole or part, resulting from causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord shall not render Landlord liable in any respect nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor work an abatement of Rent, nor relieve Tenant from the obligation to fulfill any covenant or agreement hereof. Should any of the equipment or machinery used in the provision of such services for any cause cease to function properly, Tenant shall have no claim for offset or abatement or rent or damages on account of an interruption in service resulting therefrom.

ARTICLE 8

Tenant shall, when and if needed or whenever requested by Landlord to do so, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, maintain and make all repairs to the Premises and the improvements therein, to keep, maintain and preserve the Premises in first-class condition, excepting ordinary wear and tear. Any such maintenance and repairs shall be performed by a contractor approved by Landlord. If Tenant fails to make such repairs or replacements promptly, Landlord may, at its option, make repairs or replacements, and Tenant shall pay the cost thereof to Landlord on demand as Additional Rent. Tenant

agrees with Landlord not to make or allow to be made any alterations to the Premises, install any vending machines on the Premises, or place signs on the Premises which are visible from outside the Premises, without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord in each such instance, which consent may be given on such conditions as Landlord may elect. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, for Landlord’s approval prior to the construction of any alterations, a complete set of plans and specifications for the proposed alterations, additions or improvements, copies of contracts with general contractors, evidence of contractor’s insurance and bonds, and all necessary permits for such construction. Landlord may require Tenant to provide demolition and/or lien and completion bonds in form and amount satisfactory to Landlord. All alterations, additions, and improvements will be accomplished in a good and workmanlike manner, in conformity with all applicable laws, and by a contractor approved by Landlord. Landlord’s approval of the plans, specifications and working drawings for Tenant’s alterations shall create no responsibility or liability on the part of Landlord for their completeness, design, sufficiency, or compliance with all laws, rules and regulations of governmental agencies or authorities. Upon completion of any such work, Tenant shall provide Landlord with “as built” plans, copies of all construction contracts, and proof of payment for all labor and materials. Any and all alterations to the Premises shall become the property of Landlord upon termination of this Lease (except for movable equipment or furniture owned by Tenant). Landlord may, nonetheless, require Tenant to remove any and all fixtures, equipment and other improvements installed on the Premises. In the event that Landlord so elects, and Tenant fails to remove such improvements, Landlord may remove such improvements at Tenant’s cost, and Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand the cost of restoring the Premises to the condition that existed immediately prior to the construction of such improvements.

USE OF ELECTRICAL SERVICES BY TENANT

Tenant’s use of electrical services furnished by Landlord shall be subject to the following:

(a) Landlord agrees to furnish to the Premises five (5) watts of electric current, connected load, per square foot of Usable Area during Normal Business Hours within the Premises on an annualized basis for normal lighting, normal fractional horsepower office machines, and HVAC as required in Landlord’s judgment for the use and occupation of the Premises.

(b) In the event that Tenant requires or uses more electric power than specified in Section 13(a) above, Landlord may, at Landlord’s option, require Tenant to pay the cost as reasonably determined by Landlord of such extraordinary usage as Additional Rent. In addition, Landlord may install checkmeters in or for the Premises, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and Tenant shall thereafter pay all charges of the utility company providing electric service and Landlord shall make an appropriate adjustment to Tenant’s obligation to pay a proportionate share of the Operating Expenses to account for the fact that Tenant is directly paying such metered charges.
