If Tenant fails to carry such insurance and furnish Landlord with such certificates of insurance or copies of insurance policies (if applicable), Landlord may, upon ten (10)business days’ notice to Tenant, obtain such insurance on Tenant’s behalf and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for the cost thereof as Additional Rent. Landlord reserves the right from time to time (but not more than once every five (5)years) to require Tenant to obtain higher minimum amounts or different types of insurance if it becomes customary for other landlords of similar buildings in the area to require similar sized tenants in similar industries to carry insurance of such higher minimum amounts or of such different types.

Section4.01. Additional Rent. All charges, costs and amounts payable by Tenant under this Lease other than Base Rent are called “Additional Rent”. The term “Rent” shall mean Base Rent and Additional Rent. Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, Additional Rent will begin to accrue beginning on the Commencement Date and shall be payable in advance based upon the amount set forth in an Estimate (as defined below) but subject to adjustment after the end of the year on the basis of the actual amounts for such year. The Additional Rent set forth in the Estimate, subject to adjustment as provided in Section4.11 herein, shall be due and payable at the same time and in the same manner as the time and manner of the payment of monthly Base Rent as provided herein.

Elevators, Heat, Cleaning: 31. As long as Tenant is not in default under any the covenants of this lease, beyond the applicable grace period provided in this lease for the curing of such defaults. Owner shall: (a)provide necessary passenger elevator facilities on business days from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.; (b) if freight elevator service is provided, same shall be provided only on regular business days, Monday through Friday inclusive, and on those days only between the hours of 9 a.m. and 12 noon and between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m.; (c) furnish heat, water and other services supplied by Owner to the demised premises, when and as required by law, on business days from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.; (d) clean the public halls and public portions of the building which are used in common by all tenants. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, keep the demised premises, including the windows, clean and in order, to the reasonable satisfaction of Owner, and for that purpose shall employ person or persons, or corporations approved by Owner. Tenant shall pay to Owner the cost of removal of any of Tenant’s refuse and rubbish from the building. Bills for the same shall be rendered by Owner to Tenant at such time as Owner may elect, and shall be due and payable hereunder, and the amount of such bills shall be deemed to be, and be paid as additional rent. Tenant shall, however, have the option of independently contracting for the removal of such rubbish and refuse in the event that Tenant does not wish to have same done by employees of Owner. Under such circumstances, however, the removal of such refuse and rubbish by others shall be subject to such rules and regulations as, in thejudgment of Owner, are necessary for the proper operation of the building, Owner reserves the right to stop service of the heating, elevator, plumbing and electric systems, when necessary, by reason of accident or emergency, or for repairs, alterations, replacements or improvements, which in the judgment of Owner are desirable or necessary to be made, until said repairs, alterations, replacements or improvements shall have been completed. If the building of which the demised premises are a part supplies manually operated elevator service, Owner may proceed diligently with alterations necessary to substitute automatic control elevator service without in any way affecting the obligations of Tenant hereunder.

16.1.Tenant shall pay for all water (including the cost to service, repair and replace reverse osmosis, de-ionized and other treated water), gas, heat, light, power, telephone, internet service, cable television, other telecommunications and other utilities supplied to the Premises, together with any fees, surcharges and taxes thereon. If any such utility is not separately metered to Tenant, Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Adjusted Share of all charges of such utility jointly metered with other premises as Additional Rent or, in the alternative, Landlord may, at its option, monitor the usage of such utilities by Tenant and charge Tenant with the cost of purchasing, installing and monitoring such metering equipment, which cost shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent. Landlord may base its bills for utilities on reasonable estimates; provided that Landlord adjusts such billings promptly thereafter or as part of the next Landlord’s Statement to reflect the actual cost of providing utilities to the Premises. To the extent that Tenant uses more than Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of any utilities, then Tenant shall pay Landlord for Tenant’s Adjusted Share of such utilities to reflect such excess. In the event that the Building or Project is less than fully occupied during a calendar year, Tenant acknowledges that Landlord may extrapolate utility usage that varies depending on the occupancy of the Building or Project (as applicable) to equal Landlord’s reasonable estimate of what such utility usage would have been had the Building or Project, as applicable, been ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during such calendar year; provided, however, that Landlord shall not recover more than one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of such utilities. Tenant shall not be liable for the cost of utilities supplied to the Premises attributable to the time period prior to the Term Commencement Date; provided, however, that, if Landlord shall permit Tenant possession of the Premises prior to the Term Commencement Date and Tenant uses the Premises for any purpose other than as expressly permitted in Section4.3, then Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of utilities supplied to the Premises from such earlier date of possession.

(a) Payment By Landlord; Interest. Upon a Default by Tenant hereunder, Landlord may, without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant hereunder, make such payment or perform such act. All sums so paid or incurred by Landlord, together with interest thereon, from the date such sums were paid or incurred, at the annual rate equal to 12% per annum or the highest rate permitted by law (the “Default Rate”), whichever is less, shall be payable to Landlord on demand as Additional Rent. Nothing herein shall be construed to create or impose a duty on Landlord to mitigate any damages resulting from Tenant’s Default hereunder.

All insurance required to be carried by Tenant hereunder shall be issued by one or more insurance companies reasonably acceptable to Landlord, licensed to do business in the State in which the Leased Premises is located and having an AM Best's rating of A IX or better, and Tenantwill endeavor to provide no less than thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Landlord of any material change, cancellation, or lapse in the aforementioned coverage.On or before the Commencement Date (or the date of any earlier entry or occupancy by Tenant), and thereafter, within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of each such policy, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with certificates of insurance in the form of ACORD 25 (or other evidence of insurance reasonably acceptable to Landlord), evidencing all required coverages (including all required endorsements), and that with the exception of Worker's Compensation insurance, such insurance is primary and non-contributory.If Tenant fails to carry such insurance and furnish Landlord with such certificates of insurance, Landlord may obtain such insurance on Tenant's behalf and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for the cost thereof as Additional Rent. Upon Tenant's receipt of a request from Landlord, Tenant shall provide Landlord with copies of all endorsements, evidencing the coverages required hereunder.Landlord reserves the right from time to time to require Tenant to obtain higher minimum amounts or different types of insurance if it becomes customary for other landlords of similar buildings in the area to require similar sized tenants in similar industries to carry insurance of such higher minimum amounts or of such different types. By requiring insurance herein, Landlord does not represent that the coverage and limits will necessarily be adequate to protect Tenant, and such coverage and limits shall not be deemed as a limitation on Tenant’s liability under the indemnities granted to Landlord in this Lease. If Tenant’s policies do not contain the standard ISO separation of insureds provision, or a substantially similar clause, they shall be endorsed to provide cross-liability coverage. There shall be no provisions that limit Landlord’s ability to pursue a claim against Tenant.

water. If Tenant shall require water or electric current in excess of that usually furnished or supplied for use of the Premises as normal office use, Tenant shall procure the prior written consent of Landlord for the use thereof, which Landlord may refuse, and if Landlord does consent, Landlord may cause a water meter or electric current meter to be installed so as to measure the amount of such excess water and electric current. The cost of any such meters shall be paid for by Tenant as Additional Rent.Tenant agrees to pay as Additional Rent to Landlord promptly upon demand therefor, the cost of all such excess water and electric current consumed (as shown by said meters, if any, or, if none, as reasonably estimated by Landlord) at the rates charged for such services by the local public utility or agency, as the case may be, furnishing the same, plus any additional expense incurred in keeping account of the water and electric current so consumed.

2.3 ADDITIONAL RENT All sums required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, other than the Annual Fixed Rent, shall be referred to as Additional Rent. Additional Rent will include but not be limited to the following: Tenant’s pro rata share of all Insurance Premiums, Real Estate Taxes, and Common Area Maintenance. For purposes hereof the following definitions shall apply.

5. When real estate tax statements and insurance statements are issued, Landlord shall provide the Tenant with an accounting of the actual costs, if requested. The Tenant shall pay to the Landlord, its pro-rated share of the above-mentioned costs for the premises in question. Such monies are to be considered additional rent. The prompt payment of the rent for said premises upon the dates named, and the faithful observance of the rules and regulations printed within this Lease, and which are hereby made a part of this covenant, are the conditions upon which this Lease is made and accepted and any failure on the part of the Tenant to comply with the terms of said Lease, or any of said rules and regulations now in existence, shall, at the option of the Landlord, be considered a forfeiture of this Business Lease, and shall further be considered a forfeiture of the rights of the Tenant hereunder, and thereupon, the Landlord, his agents or his attorneys, shall have the right to enter said premises, and remove all persons therefrom forcible or otherwise.

G. Late Charges: The Landlord and the Tenant agree that the Tenant shall have a three (3) day grace period in which to make a rental payment. The Tenant agrees that the Tenant will pay a late charge of $25.00 per day for each day the Tenant is late with a rental payment beyond the due date as set force above. Such monies are to considered additional rent. For example purposes only, if a rental payment is due on the first day of the month, with the above and foregoing three (3) day grace period, said rental payment would have to be hand-delivered to the Landlord by no later than the fourth day of the month, or if mailed by the Tenant, would have to be received by the Landlord by the fourth day of the month, in order to avoid any late charges. If the payment is mailed to the Landlord, the Tenant understands that the Landlord must receive said payment by the last day of the grace period to avoid late charges and the Tenant shall not be allowed to argue that the envelope was post marked prior to the end of the grace period.

24.11. Relocation. Landlord shall have the right to relocate Tenant from the Premises to comparable (as to size, configuration and improvements) alternative space in the Property or in another building that Landlord (or its affiliate) owns in the same business park or campus in which the Property is located (in either case, the “Replacement Premises”) upon 90 days’ prior written notice to Tenant. In the event of such a relocation, Landlord shall make reasonable, good faith efforts to coordinate with Tenant a mutually acceptable plan (as to scope and timing) for such relocation, and Landlord shall be responsible for the third party costs actually incurred to accomplish the physical relocation of Tenant (e.g. movers and telephone company charges). If the Replacement Premises are larger in size than the original Premises, there shall be no adjustment in Tenant’s Base Rent; however, Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall be appropriately modified, thereby resulting in a potential increase in Tenant’s Additional Rent. If, however, the Replacement Premises is a smaller size (as to rentable square feet) than the original Premises, Landlord shall appropriately adjust both Tenant’s Base Rent and its Proportionate Share.

(ii) Additional Rent. Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord as additional rent (“Additional Rent”) all expenses incurred by Sublandlord due to Subtenant’s use of the Sublease Space and all other costs incurred under the Lease for the Sublease Space. Subtenant shall pay Sublandlord, as Additional Rent for each Expense Year that occurs in whole or in part during the Sublease Term, an amount (the “Sublease Escalation”) equal to Subtenant’s Share (as hereinafter defined) of the excess (if any) of (x)the amount payable by Sublandlord to Landlord for such Expense Year under Section4 of the Lease (both estimates as well as actuals) in respect of escalations in Expenses and Taxes over (y)the amount payable by Sublandlord to Landlord for the Expense Year ending on December31, 2016, under the Lease in respect of escalations in Expenses and Taxes. If the expiration date of the Sublease Term occurs on a day other than the last day of an Expense Year, then the Sublease Escalation for such Expense Year shall be a pro-rated amount (computed on a per diem basis), based upon the number of days within such Expense Year occurring within the Sublease Term. “Subtenant’s Share” means 22.95%, which percentage the parties agree is Subtenant’s percentage share of the Premises applicable to the Sublease Space and is subject to appropriate adjustment after the date hereof if either the size of the Premises or the size of the Sublease Space is increased or decreased. During the Sublease Term, Subtenant has the right to request from Sublandlord a copy of the Statement (as that term is defined in Section4.4.1 of the Original Lease), the Estimate Statement (as that term is defined in Section4.4.2 of the Original Lease), and any back-up information that Landlord has delivered to Sublandlord with respect to the actual Expenses and Taxes for the preceding calendar year.

3.4.9 Payments Deemed Additional Rent. Any sums payable under this Lease pursuant to this paragraph or otherwise shall be Additional Rent and, in the event of nonpayment of such sums, Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies with respect to such nonpayment as it has with respect to nonpayment of the Base Rent due under this Lease.

3.5.2 Tenant acknowledges that space on the Building rooftop and in Building risers, equipment rooms and equipment closets is limited. If Tenant requires Telecommunication Services for the Premises other than from the provider or providers of Telecommunication Services selected by Landlord and whose Telecommunication Facilities are installed in or about the Building or on the rooftop of the Building, provision for alternate or supplemental Telecommunication Services or Telecommunication Facilities has been made in a license agreement accompanying and made part of this Lease.

The agreement referred to in clause (b)of the previous sentence shall be incorporated in and become part of this Lease. Any future application by Tenant for permission to locate or install Telecommunication Facilities shall (1)be in such form and shall be accompanied by such supporting information as the Landlord may require, (2)be subject to such procedures, regulations and controls as the Landlord may specify and (3)be accompanied by such payment as the landlord may reasonably request to reimburse Landlord for its costs of evaluating and processing the application and in negotiating and preparing the agreement described earlier in this subparagraph.

5.3 Right to Perform. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money, other than Base Rent or Additional Rent. required to be paid by it under this Lease or shall fail to perform any other act on its part to be performed under this Lease, and such failure shall continue for fifteen (15)days after notice of such failure by Landlord, or such shorter time if reasonable under the circumstances, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, and without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligations of Tenant, make such payment or perform such other act on Tenant’s part to be made or performed as provided in this Lease. Landlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord) the same rights and remedies in the event of the nonpayment of sums due under this paragraph as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of Base Rent.

(collectively, the “Rent Abatement”). In the event that on the date any such Rent Abatement is to be applied Tenant is in default of this Lease beyond the expiration of any grace or cure period expressly provided for in this Lease such that this Lease has been terminated or Tenant’s right to possession of the Demised Premises has been terminated, then the Rent Abatement theretofore applied against Fixed Rent or thereafter to be applied against Fixed Rent shall be entirely forfeited, and the equivalent amount of any such Rent Abatement theretofore applied to the Fixed Rent shall be immediately remitted by Tenant to Landlord as Additional Rent. The “Rent Commencement Date” is the Commencement Date.

(b)Tenant, at its own expense, may make changes in the Tenant Improvements by submitting to Landlord the required revised Work Plans for approval or disapproval in accordance with the approval/disapproval standards described in Paragraph 2 hereof. In the event Tenant submits revised Work Plans which are approved by Landlord, Landlord will thereafter submit a proposal (the "Proposal") to Tenant for approval showing (i) the increased cost of the Tenant Improvements resulting from the proposed changes and (ii) the delay in completion of the Tenant Improvements anticipated as a result of the proposed changes (it being understood that Tenant's request for a change may constitute "Tenant Delay" pursuant to Paragraph 4 and the date of Substantial Completion shall not be delayed or extended by reason thereof). The increased cost of the Tenant Improvements shall reflect all anticipated changes relating to said Tenant changes, and shall be paid for by Tenant to Landlord on demand at any time as Additional Rent. The Proposal shall include a form of Change Order which shall set forth the anticipated time to perform such change(s) and the anticipated adjustment to the cost of the Tenant Improvements ("Change Order"). Tenant may approve the Proposal by executing and delivering the Change Order to Landlord within the time period specified in the Proposal (or within forty-eight (48) hours, if no period is required). If Tenant fails to approve the Proposal within the specified time period, Tenant shall be deemed to have abandoned its request for changes in the Tenant Improvements and Landlord may proceed with the Tenant Improvements without regard to such requested changes. If at any time Tenant has requested changes, or Landlord has delivered a Proposal to Tenant and Tenant has not yet approved the Proposal, Landlord may at its election cease any portions of Tenant Improvements affected by such changes, and delays caused by such cessation of Tenant Improvements shall constitute a "Tenant Delay" as defined in Paragraph 4 hereof.

18.1.Landlord May Cure Default.If Tenant defaults under this Lease, Landlord, at its sole option, following any required notice and cure period, immediately or at any time thereafter, may elect to correct the default on behalf of Tenant.Any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord in curing such default including, but not limited to, fines, penalties, interest, damages and reasonable attorney's fees in instituting, prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding, all of which sums shall carry interest at the lesser of eighteen (18%) percent per annum or the highest rate permitted by law until paid in full, shall be deemed to be Additional Rent.Tenant shall pay such sums within thirty (30) days of receipt of a reasonably detailed bill or statement to Tenant therefor.Upon payment of such bill, Tenant shall be deemed to have cured such default.

Settlement. As soon as practical after the end of each Comparison Year, Landlord will give Tenant a statement of the actual Additional Rent for the Comparison Year. Additional Rent for any partial Comparison Year will be prorated based on a 365-day calendar year. The statement of Additional Rent is conclusive, binds Tenant, and Tenant waives all rights to contest the statement, except for items of Additional Rent to which Tenant objects by notice to Landlord given within 90days after receipt of Landlord’s statement; however, Tenant’s objection will not relieve Tenant from its obligation to pay Additional Rent pending resolution of any objection. If the Additional Rent exceeds the Estimated Additional Rent for the Comparison Year, then Tenant shall pay the underpayment to Landlord in a lump sum as Rent within 30 days after receipt of Landlord’s statement of Additional Rent. If the Estimated Additional Rent exceeds the Additional Rent for the Comparison Year, then Landlord shall credit the overpayment against Rent next due or refund such amount to Tenant concurrently with the delivery of such statement if the Lease is to terminate with the same Year as the final calculation of the Additional Rent for the Comparison Year.

4.4 Terms of Payment. “Rent” means all amounts payable by Tenant under this Lease and the exhibits, including Base Rent and Additional Rent. If a time for payment of an item of Rent is not specified in this Lease, then Tenant will pay Rent within 30 days after receipt of Landlord’s statement or invoice. Unless otherwise provided in this Lease, Tenant shall pay Rent without notice, demand, deduction, abatement, or setoff, in lawful U.S. currency, at Landlord’s Billing Address. Landlord will send invoices payable by Tenant to Tenant’s Billing Address; however, neither Landlord’s failure to send an invoice nor Tenant’s failure to receive an invoice for Base Rent (and installments of Estimated Additional Rent) will relieve Tenant of its obligation to timely pay Base Rent (and installments of Estimated Additional Rent). Any partial payment of Rent by Tenant will be considered a payment on account. No endorsement or statement on any Rent check or any letter accompanying Rent will be deemed an accord and satisfaction, affect Landlord’s right to collect the full Rent due, or require Landlord to apply any payment to any Rent other than Rent earliest due. No payment by Tenant to Landlord will be deemed to extend the Term or render any notice, pending suit or judgment ineffective. By notice to the other, each party may change its Billing Address.

Payment -- Prior to each Lease Year, Landlord will give Tenant an estimate of amounts payable under this Rider for such Lease Year or Partial Lease Year. By the first day of each month during such Lease Year or Partial Lease Year, Tenant will pay Landlord one-twelfth (1/12th) of the estimated amount.If, however, the estimate is not given before such Lease Year or Partial Lease Year begins, Tenant will continue to pay by the first day of each month on the basis of last year’s estimate, if any, until the month after the new estimate is given.As soon as practicable after each Lease Year or Partial Lease Year ends, Landlord will give Tenant a statement (the “Statement”) showing the actual amounts payable by Tenant under this Rider for such Lease Year.If the Statement shows that the actual amount Tenant owes for such Lease Year or Partial Lease Year is less than the estimated amount paid by Tenant during such Lease Year or Partial Lease Year, Landlord, at its option, will either return the difference or credit the difference against the next succeeding payment(s) of Additional Rent.If the Statement shows that the actual amount Tenant owes is more than the estimated Additional Rent paid by Tenant during such Lease Year or Partial Lease Year, Tenant will pay the difference within thirty (30) days after the Statement is delivered to Tenant.

(b) Should it become necessary for the Landlord to make such repairs after a casualty, then the provisions of this Section with respect to repair by Landlord shall be limited to such repair as is necessary to place the Premises in the condition similar to that as of the Commencement Date of the Lease, normal wear and tear excepted, and when placed in such condition the Premises shall be deemed restored and rendered tenantable. Promptly following Landlord’s restoration work Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall perform the work required to place the Premises in the condition to operate its business, and Tenant shall also repair or replace its stock in trade, fixtures, personal property, furniture, furnishings, floor coverings and equipment, and if Tenant has closed, Tenant shall promptly reopen for business. Any such repairs conducted by Landlord shall be considered Additional Rent and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such sum as Additional Rent. plus an administrative fee of fifteen percent (15%) upon demand.

(e) If Tenant refuses or neglects to repair properly as required hereunder and to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord as soon as reasonably possible after written demand. Landlord may make such repairs without liability to Tenant for any loss or damage that may occur to Tenant’s merchandise, fixtures or other property, or to Tenant’s business by reason thereof and upon completion thereof, Tenant shall pay Landlord’s cost for making such repairs, plus fifteen (15%) percent for overhead, upon presentation of bill therefore, as Additional Rent. Said bill shall include interest at twelve (12%) percent on said cost from the date of completion of repairs by Landlord. In the event the Landlord shall undertake any maintenance or repair in the course of which it shall be determined that such maintenance or repair work was made necessary by the gross negligence or willful act of Tenant or any of its employees, or agents, or that the maintenance or repair is, under the terms of this Lease, the responsibility of Tenant, Tenant shall pay Landlord’s costs thereof plus overhead and interest as above provided in this Section.

Tenant shall be solely responsible for and promptly pay all charges for water, gas, electricity, sewer charges or trash removal or any other utility used or consumed in the Leased Premises. If any such charges are not paid when due, Landlord may, at its option, pay the same, and any amount so paid by the Landlord shall there upon become due to the Landlord from Tenant as Additional Rent. Should Landlord elect to supply the water, gas, electricity, trash removal, or any other utility used or consumed in the Leased Premises, Tenant agrees to purchase and pay for the same as Additional Rent at the applicable rates filed by the Landlord with the proper regulatory authority. In no event shall Landlord be liable for an interruption or failure in the supply of any such utilities to the Leased Premises. Tenant shall also be required prior to taking possession of the Leased Premises to pay to the Landlord any and all water or sewer connection or meter charges for the Leased Premises if the Landlord has been required to pay such charges by any private or governmental authority having jurisdiction there over.
