ARTICLE II
PREMISES

     2.1 Lease of Premises. Landlord leases the Premises to Tenant and Tenant leases the Premises from Landlord for the Lease Term and upon the conditions and covenants set forth in this Lease.

     2.2 Contingency. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in the event this Lease is executed prior to the conveyance of the Premises to Landlord, the parties acknowledge that the effectiveness of this Lease is contingent upon such effective conveyance and, in the event such conveyance fails to occur, this Lease shall be void and without force or effect.

ARTICLE III
LEASE TERM

     3.1 All of the provisions of this Lease shall be in full force and effect from and after the Effective Date, subject to Section 2.2 above. The term of this Lease shall commence on the Lease Commencement Date and continue for the Lease Term. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a certificate in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto confirming the Lease Commencement Date.

ARTICLE IV
MONTHLY BASE RENT

     4.1 Monthly Base Rent. Tenant shall pay “Monthly Base Rent” in an amount equal to the Purchase Price multiplied by the then effective capitalization rate (the “Cap Rate”), the product of which is divided by twelve (12). Except as otherwise established in this Article IV, the Cap Rate shall mean the then effective LIBOR Rate plus Six Hundred (600) basis points, but in no event less than 9.25%. The term “LIBOR Rate” shall mean the British Banker’s Association (“BBA”) interest settlement rate based on an average of rates quoted by the BBA designated banks as being, in BBA’s view of the offered rate at which deposits in U.S. Dollars are being quoted to prime banks in London interbank market at 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Determination Date for one month deposits, as reported by “The Bloomberg Financial Markets, Commodities and News” financial reporting service. The “Determination Date” shall be the last Wednesday that is a Business Day (as defined in Section 23.21) of the second previous month, unless said date is the last day of such month, in which case the Determination Date shall be the second to last Wednesday that is a business day of such month (e.g., the Determination Date for the installment of Monthly Base Rent that is due on February 1, 2004 shall be December 24, 2003 and the Determination Date for the installment of Monthly Base Rent that is due March 1, 2004 shall be January 28, 2004). The LIBOR Rate shall be rounded to four (4) decimal places. In the event that the LIBOR Rate is discontinued or cannot be ascertained, the Landlord will substitute a reasonably comparable rate and will notify Tenant in writing of such substitution. The Monthly Base Rent shall be adjusted each month during the Lease Term in accordance with this paragraph. Landlord shall notify Tenant of the Monthly Base Rent installment amount not later than the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of the month prior to the date that the installment is

- 3 -

due (the “Notification Date”), but Landlord’s failure to do so will not be deemed a waiver of Tenant’s obligation to pay such installment. In the event Tenant has not received such notification on or before the Notification Date, Tenant shall request the Monthly Base Rent installment amount from Landlord in writing on or before the fifth (5th) calendar day following the Notification Date. From and after the Lease Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay the Monthly Base Rent in advance on the first calendar day of each month during each Lease Year. If the Lease Commencement Date is not the first day of a month, then the Monthly Base Rent from the Lease Commencement Date until the first day of the following month shall be prorated on a per diem basis at the rate of one-thirtieth (1/30th) of the applicable Monthly Base Rent, and Tenant shall pay such prorated installment of the Monthly Base Rent on the Lease Commencement Date.

     4.2 Additional Rent. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, any additional rent or other sum owed by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease (other than Monthly Base Rent), and any cost, expense, damage or liability incurred by Landlord for which Tenant is liable, shall be considered “Additional Rent”, and shall be paid by Tenant no later than fifteen (15) days after the date Landlord notifies Tenant in writing of the amount thereof.

     4.3 Payment of Monthly Base Rent and Other Sums Due. All sums payable by Tenant under this Lease, including but not limited to Monthly Base Rent, Additional Rent, the monthly Replacement Reserve Account payment or otherwise, shall be paid to Landlord in legal tender of the United States, without setoff, deduction or demand, by direct deposit wire transfer of immediately available funds to the following bank account, or to such other party or address as Landlord may designate in writing:

          Branch Banking and Trust Company of Virginia
          ABA #056005318
          For Credit to: Gladstone Commercial Limited Partnership
          Account #5235413681

Landlord’s acceptance of Monthly Base Rent or Additional Rent after it shall have become due and payable shall not excuse a delay upon any subsequent occasion or constitute a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights hereunder.

     4.4 Late Payment. If any amount of Monthly Base Rent or Additional Rent is not received by Landlord within five (5) days after the date such payment is due (without regard to any grace period specified in Section 17.1), then in addition to paying the amount then due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, without notice or demand, a late charge (“Late Charge”) equal to five percent (5%) of such payment. In addition, such payment and such Late Charge shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such payment or Late Charge, respectively, became due to the date of payment thereof by Tenant; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed as permitting Landlord to charge or receive interest in excess of the maximum rate then allowed by law. Payment of such Late Charge will not excuse the untimely payment of Monthly Base Rent. Any Late Charge shall constitute Additional Rent.

     4.5 Property Oversight Fee. In addition to the payment of Monthly Base Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including but not

- 4 -

limited to Additional Rent, Tenant shall pay the Property Oversight Fee to Gladstone Management Corporation in advance on the first calendar day of each Lease Year during the Lease Term, commencing on the second Lease Year.

ARTICLE V
NET LEASE; IMPOSITIONS; UTILITIES AND SERVICES

     5.1 Net Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Lease shall be an absolute net lease, so that this Lease shall yield all Monthly Base Rent payable hereunder as an absolutely net return to Landlord. Accordingly, with the sole exception of Landlord’s Income Taxes (as defined in Section 5.3), Tenant shall pay all taxes, insurance, ground rents, easement charges, association fees, and other costs, expenses and obligations of every kind and nature whatsoever relating to the Premises, including without limitation, costs with respect to the ownership and operation thereof, which accrue prior to the expiration of the Lease Term. Tenant’s obligation to pay all amounts described in this Section 5.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.

     5.2 Payment of Impositions. On or before the Lease Commencement Date, Tenant shall notify the appropriate taxing authorities to deliver directly to Tenant all statements and invoices for Impositions (as defined in Section 5.3), effective as of the Lease Commencement Date. Tenant shall pay all Impositions no later than ten (10) days prior to the date they become due. As soon as practicable after the payment thereof, but in no event less than ten (10) days prior to the date they become due, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord written evidence of each such payment. To the extent that any such Impositions are imposed upon Landlord, at Landlord’s option, Tenant shall either pay such Impositions directly to the taxing authority or reimburse Landlord for such Impositions. If the Lease Term expires on a day other than the last day of a calendar year, then Tenant’s liability for Impositions for such calendar year shall be apportioned by multiplying the amount of Impositions for the full calendar year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during such calendar year falling within the Lease Term, and the denominator of which is three hundred sixty-five (365).

     5.3 Definition of Impositions. The term “Impositions” shall mean, collectively, taxes, including without limitation, any present or future real estate taxes, all taxes or other impositions that are in the nature of or in substitution for real estate taxes, vault and/or public space rentals, business district or arena taxes, business or occupation, single business, transaction, privilege, franchise, capital stock, excise, or profits taxes, as well as special user fees, license fees, permits, improvement bonds, levies, improvement district charges, governmental charges, rates, and assessments, general, special, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, that in all instances relate to the Premises and that are imposed upon Landlord with respect thereto, rent, Tenant or the Premises, fixtures, machinery, equipment or systems used in connection with the Premises or the business being operated on the Premises, including without limitation, taxes in the nature of a sales, use, gross receipts or other tax or levy on the rents payable by Tenant. Impositions shall not include any federal, state, or local tax imposed on Landlord that is based upon Landlord’s net income, net worth or any capital gains tax imposed on Landlord in connection with the sale of the Premises to any person or entity or

- 5 -

any other transaction (“Landlord’s Income Taxes”), except to the extent levied expressly in lieu of a tax payable by Tenant and described in the first sentence of this Section 5.3.

     5.4 Contest of Impositions. Tenant, at its sole expense, upon at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Landlord but without the need to obtain Landlord’s consent, and using legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord, shall have the right to contest the amount or validity of any Imposition by diligently conducting in good faith an appropriate legal or administrative proceeding, provided that the following conditions are met: (i) the Impositions are paid or the postponement of payment of Impositions, without penalty, as part of such proceeding is permitted by applicable law, (ii) the Premises shall not, by reason of such postponement of payment, or the initiation of such proceeding, be subject to forfeiture, sale, or loss, (iii) such proceedings shall not impact or interfere with the use or occupancy of the Premises, (iv) such proceedings shall not affect or interfere with Tenant’s continued payment of Monthly Base Rent or Additional Rent; and (v) pursuing the contest of Impositions shall not in any way expose Landlord to any criminal or civil liability, penalty or sanction. Tenant further agrees that each such contest shall be promptly and diligently prosecuted to a final conclusion in a commercially reasonable manner, and Tenant shall pay all judgments, decrees and costs (including any reasonable costs incurred by Landlord) in connection with any such contest and shall, promptly after the final determination of such contest, fully pay and discharge the amounts which shall be levied. Tenant shall be entitled to any refund received with respect to Impositions paid by Tenant.

     5.5 Assessments on Tenant’s Business and Personalty. Tenant shall pay before delinquency any business, rent, sales, franchise or other taxes or fees that are now or hereafter levied, assessed or imposed upon Tenant’s use, operation, or occupancy of the Premises, the conduct of Tenant’s business at the Premises, or Tenant’s equipment, fixtures, furnishings, inventory or personal property. If any such tax or fee is enacted or altered so that such tax or fee is levied against Landlord or so that Landlord is responsible for collection or payment thereof, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent the amount of such tax or fee.

     5.6 Utilities and Services. Tenant, at its own expense and risk, shall arrange with the appropriate utility companies and service providers for the provision to the Premises of water, sewer, trash collection, electricity, gas, telephone, window washing, landscaping, snow removal, and all other utilities and services desired by Tenant. On or before the Lease Commencement Date, Tenant shall notify the appropriate utility and service providers to deliver directly to Tenant all statements and invoices for the amounts for which Tenant is responsible pursuant to this Section 5.6, effective as of the Lease Commencement Date. Tenant shall pay directly to the appropriate utility companies and service providers all charges for all utilities consumed in and services performed for the Premises, as and when such charges become due and payable. To the extent the invoices for any such utilities and services are received by Landlord, at Landlord’s option, Tenant shall either pay the charge for such utilities and services directly to the utility or service provider or reimburse Landlord for such charges previously paid by Landlord, in which case, Landlord will provide Tenant with written verification of such prior payments.

Promptly upon request, Tenant shall execute from time to time affidavits, representations and similar documents concerning Tenant’s best knowledge and belief regarding the presence of Hazardous Materials at the Premises.

          (e) Tenant’s obligations pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

ARTICLE VII
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

     7.1 Landlord’s Consent Required. Tenant shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage, or otherwise encumber (collectively, “Assign” or “Assignment”) or sublet (“Sublet” or “Sublease”) all or any part of Tenant’s interest in the Lease or in the Premises, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld or granted in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. Any attempted Assignment or Sublease without such consent shall be void, and shall constitute a material default and breach of this Lease by Tenant. If at any time during the Lease Term Tenant desires to Assign or Sublease all or part of this Lease or the Premises, then Tenant shall give not less than thirty days’ prior written notice to Landlord containing the following information: the identity of the proposed assignee or subtenant and a description of its business; the terms of the proposed Assignment or Sublease; the commencement date of the proposed Assignment or Sublease; the area proposed to be Assigned or Sublet; and financial statements for the prior five (5) years of such proposed

- 9 -

assignee or subtenant. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 7.1, provided that no Event of Default exists, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent either to (i) any proposed Assignment or Sublease to an Affiliate of Tenant, or (ii) any sublease that, when combined with all other subleases of the Premises then in effect, in the aggregate, affects less than twenty percent (20%) of the Premises, provided that Landlord determines, in its sole and absolute discretion:

          (a) the use of the Premises pursuant to such Assignment or Sublease is in compliance with Article VI hereof;

          (b) that Tenant and, provided the Guaranty is still in effect, Guarantor shall remain creditworthy entities following the Assignment or Sublease, reasonably expected to be capable of performing the obligations under the Lease;

          (c) the financial condition of the proposed assignee or subtenant is at least as good as that of the original Tenant and Guarantor, taken as a whole, under this Lease as of the Effective Date;

          (d) the reputation and experience of the proposed assignee or subtenant is satisfactory to Landlord;

          (e) such Assignment or Sublease does not violate the terms of any Mortgage, and if required, any Lender whose consent is required has consented to the proposed Assignment or Sublease;

          (f) if the Guaranty is still in effect, Guarantor has reaffirmed the Guaranty and given its written consent to such proposed Sublease or Assignment; and

          (g) all documentation is approved by Landlord.

     7.2 Additional Terms and Conditions. Neither Landlord’s consent to any Assignment or Sublease, nor Landlord’s collection or acceptance of rent from any assignee or subtenant, shall be construed as (i) waiving or releasing Tenant from any of its liabilities or obligations under this Lease as a principal, other than with respect to such sums indefeasibly and actually received by Landlord and applied to Tenant’s obligations hereunder, (ii) to the extent the Guaranty remains effective, waiving or releasing Guarantor from its obligations as a guarantor or surety, other than with respect to such sums indefeasibly and actually received by Landlord and applied to Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, or (iii) as relieving Tenant or any assignee or subtenant from the obligation of obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent to any subsequent Assignment or Sublease. As security for this Lease, Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord the rent due from any assignee or subtenant of Tenant. For any period during which there exists an Event of Default hereunder, Tenant hereby authorizes each such assignee or subtenant to pay said rent directly to Landlord upon receipt of notice from Landlord specifying same. Landlord’s collection of such rent shall not be construed as an acceptance of such assignee or subtenant as a tenant.

     7.3 Landlord’s Expenses. Tenant shall pay all of Landlord’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with Landlord’s review and administration of each

- 10 -

proposed Assignment or Sublease, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’, accountants’, and other consultants’ fees. In addition, if Landlord approves an Assignment, if not paid for by the assignee, Tenant shall pay a fee to Landlord (in part to defray internal costs and expenses) in an amount equal to Eighteen Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($18,000.00).

     7.4 Effect on Event of Default. Landlord’s written consent to any Assignment or Sublet shall not constitute a representation that no default then exists under this Lease of the obligations to be performed by Tenant, nor shall such consent be deemed a waiver of any then existing default. Neither a delay in the approval or disapproval of such Assignment or Sublease, nor the acceptance of rent, shall constitute a waiver or estoppel of Landlord’s right to exercise its remedies for the breach of any of the terms or conditions of this Lease.

     7.5 Continuation of Restrictions and Obligations. All restrictions and obligations imposed pursuant to this Lease on Tenant shall be deemed to extend to any subtenant, assignee, licensee, concessionaire or other occupant or transferee, and Tenant shall cause such person or entity to comply with such restrictions and obligations. Any assignee shall be deemed to have assumed all such obligations as if such assignee had originally executed this Lease and at Landlord’s request shall execute promptly a document confirming such assumption. Each Sublease is subject to the condition that if the Lease is terminated or Landlord succeeds to Tenant’s interest in the Premises by voluntary surrender or otherwise, at Landlord’s option, the Sublease shall terminate, or not terminate, as a matter of law and, if not terminated, the subtenant shall be bound to Landlord for the balance of the term of such Sublease and shall attorn to and recognize Landlord as its landlord under the then executory terms of such Sublease.

     7.6 Merger. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord and Tenant hereby expressly agree that immediately following the consummation of the Merger, this Lease shall automatically be assigned to the entity that survives the merger (the “Surviving Entity”) so that for all purposes of this Lease, Tenant shall mean the Surviving Entity.

     7.7 Subleases. Notwithstanding any to the contrary contained herein, Landlord hereby consents to (i) the conversion of that certain lease agreement between Tenant and RT Fox, LLC dated as of January 31, 2003 into a sublease with Tenant, as sublessor, and RT Fox, LLC, as sublessee and (ii) the sublease of additional space by Tenant, as sublessor, to the purchaser of its Prepress Division, provided however, that each subtenant shall acknowledge in its sublease that it has read this Lease and that it agrees to the subordination of its sublease to this Lease.

CONDEMNATION

     16.1 Total Taking. If the entire Premises or occupancy thereof shall be permanently taken or condemned by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose or sold under threat of such a taking or condemnation (a “Total

- 21 -

Taking”), then this Lease shall terminate on the earlier of the date that title to the Premises vests in such authority or the date that the authority takes possession of the Premises, and Monthly Base Rent shall be apportioned as of such date. If less than the entire Premises or occupancy thereof is permanently condemned, but such partial condemnation, even after restoration, would in Landlord’s reasonable judgment be substantially and materially adverse to the business operations of Tenant as being conducted at or from the Premises as of the Lease Commencement Date, then Tenant shall have the right to elect to terminate this Lease upon written notice thereof to Landlord within fifteen (15) Business Days after Tenant receives notice of such taking (together with a Total Taking, a “Termination Taking”). This Lease shall terminate on the date that title to the Premises vests in such authority, and Monthly Base Rent shall be apportioned as of such date. A condemnation shall be deemed to be permanent if lasting for a period in excess of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months.

     16.2 Partial Taking. If less than the entire Premises or occupancy thereof is permanently condemned and such partial condemnation would not, even after restoration, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment be substantially and materially adverse to the business operations of Tenant as being conducted at or from the Premises as of the Lease Commencement Date (a “Partial Taking”), then this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, there shall be no abatement of Monthly Base Rent or Additional Rent except for an adjustment to Monthly Base Rent as provided in Section 16.5 and Tenant shall comply with the provisions of Article XV of this Lease.

     16.3 Temporary Taking. If all or any portion of the Premises is condemned for a period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months or less, the Lease shall remain in full force and effect and there shall be no abatement of Monthly Base Rent or Additional Rent notwithstanding such condemnation. The amount of any award, damages and other compensation (the “Awards”) paid on account of a temporary taking, net of Landlord’s reasonable expenses in obtaining the same, for such temporary taking allocable to the Lease Term, shall be paid to Tenant, and Tenant shall be entitled to participate in the negotiation of a settlement or negotiation or litigation of an award in connection with such a temporary taking.

     16.4 Awards. Except as set forth above, in the event of a Termination Taking or Partial Taking, all Awards shall belong to Landlord, and Tenant assigns to Landlord all rights to such Awards. Tenant shall not make any claim against Landlord or such authority for any portion of such Awards attributable to damage to the Premises, value of the unexpired portion of the Lease Term or any renewal thereof, loss of profits or goodwill, leasehold improvements, consequential damages to the Premises not taken, or severance damages. Nothing contained herein, however, shall prevent Tenant from pursuing a separate claim against the authority for relocation expenses and for the value of furnishings, equipment and trade fixtures installed in the Premises at Tenant’s expense and which Tenant is entitled, pursuant to this Lease, to remove at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, provided that such claim shall in no way diminish the Awards payable to or recoverable by Landlord in connection with such taking.

     16.5 Partial Taking Base Rent Abatement. In the event of a Partial Taking in excess of five percent (5%) of (i) the buildings or portion of the land area of the Premises which is paved or (ii) the fair market value of the Premises, this Lease shall remain unaffected by such

taking except that, following Landlord’s receipt of the Award and Tenant’s completion of the restoration in accordance with Article XV hereof, the Monthly Base Rent shall be reduced by an amount equal to the amount of the net Awards received by Landlord divided by ten (10). Until the new Monthly Base Rent shall be determined and agreed upon in writing, Tenant shall continue to pay Monthly Base Rent in accordance with the original terms of this Lease and upon such determination, an appropriate adjustment shall be made and Tenant shall receive credit for any overpayment.

ARTICLE XVII
DEFAULT

     17.1 Events of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default”: (a) Tenant’s failure to pay when due Monthly Base Rent, Additional Rent or other sum; provided, however, that with respect to the first (1st) such failure in any twelve (12) month period only, no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred unless such failure continues for a period of five (5) days after Landlord provides written notice thereof to Tenant; (b) Tenant’s failure to perform or observe any non-monetary covenant or condition of this Lease not otherwise specifically described in this Section 17.1, which failure continues for twenty (20) days after Landlord provides written notice thereof to Tenant, or such shorter period as is appropriate if such failure can be cured in a shorter period; or, if the default cannot be cured within twenty (20) days, then within such longer period, as may be reasonably necessary to complete such corrective action, but in no event longer than ninety (90) days provided, however, that such cure period shall not be applicable if, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, such failure raises a life/safety issue with respect to the Premises or its occupants or visitors, including but not limited to, a threat of personal injury or continuing physical injury to the Premises; (c) Tenant’s abandonment of or failure to occupy continuously the Premises; (d) an Event of Insolvency as specified in Article XVIII; (e) any Environmental Default as specified in Section 6.3 which continues for a period of ninety (90) days; (f) any Sublease or Assignment not consented to by Landlord in writing pursuant to Article VII, or a Change in Control without the prior written consent of Landlord; (g) any representation, warranty or certification made by Tenant is incorrect in any material respect when made; (h) a final, non-appealable judgment for the payment of money not fully covered by insurance is rendered against Tenant or any Affiliate conducting business at or from the Premises, and the same has not been discharged, vacated, bonded, or stayed within sixty (60) days after rendering of the same; (i) any failure to maintain or obtain the insurance required pursuant to Article XIII above; (j) any default by Tenant, or any Affiliates or guarantor thereof under any other instrument entered into with or for the benefit of Landlord or any of Landlord’s Affiliates; (k) any breach of Tenant’s or Guarantor’s covenants regarding the Rent Coverage Ratio or the Tangible Net Worth requirements described in Article X above; and (m) failure of Tenant to maintain the Security Deposit in accordance with Article XI.

     17.2 Landlord’s Remedies. Following an Event of Default, the provisions of this Section 17.2 shall apply. Landlord shall have the right, at its sole option, to terminate this Lease. In addition, with or without terminating this Lease, Landlord may re-enter, terminate Tenant’s right of possession and take possession of the Premises. The provisions of this Article shall operate as a notice to quit, and Tenant hereby waives any other notice to quit or notice of

- 23 -

Landlord’s intention to re-enter the Premises or terminate this Lease. If necessary, Landlord may proceed to recover possession of the Premises under applicable Laws, or by such other proceedings, including re-entry and possession, as may be applicable. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease and/or elects to terminate Tenant’s right of possession, everything contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord to be done and performed shall cease without prejudice, however, to Tenant’s liability for all Monthly Base Rent, Additional Rent and other sums specified herein. Whether or not this Lease and/or Tenant’s right of possession is terminated, Landlord shall have the right, at its sole option, to terminate any right of renewal, expansion, first offer or refusal and any right to purchase the Premises contained in this Lease and to grant or withhold any consent or approval pursuant to this Lease in its sole and absolute discretion. Whether or not this Lease and/or Tenant’s right of possession is terminated or any suit is instituted, Tenant shall be liable for any Monthly Base Rent, Additional Rent, damages or other sum which may be due or sustained prior to such default, and for all costs, fees and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, brokerage fees, expenses incurred in enforcing any of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease or in placing the Premises in first class rentable condition, and advertising expenses, incurred by Landlord in pursuit of its remedies hereunder and/or in recovering possession of the Premises and renting the Premises to others from time to time plus other actual or out of pocket damages suffered or incurred by Landlord on account of Tenant’s default. Tenant also shall be liable for additional damages which at Landlord’s election shall be either one or a combination of the following: (a) an amount equal to the Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent due or which would have become due from the date of Tenant’s default through the remainder of the Lease Term, less the amount of rental, if any, which Landlord receives during such period from others to whom the Premises may be rented (other than any Additional Rent received by Landlord as a result of any failure of such other person to perform any of its obligations to Landlord), which amount shall be computed and payable in monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each calendar month following Tenant’s default and continuing until the date on which the Lease Term would have expired but for Tenant’s default, it being understood that separate suits may be brought from time to time to collect any such damages for any month(s) (and any such separate suit shall not in any manner prejudice the right of Landlord to collect any damages for any subsequent month(s)), or Landlord may defer initiating any such suit until after the expiration of the Lease Term (in which event such deferral shall not be construed as a waiver of Landlord’s rights as set forth herein and Landlord’s cause of action shall be deemed not to have accrued until the expiration of the Lease Term), and it being further understood that if Landlord elects to bring suits from time to time prior to reletting the Premises, Landlord shall be entitled to its full damages through the date of the award of damages without regard to any Monthly Base Rent, Additional Rent or other sums that are or may be projected to be received by Landlord upon reletting of the Premises; or (b) an amount equal to the present value of the sum of (i) the amount by which (A) all Monthly Base Rent (assuming a cap rate of 10%), Additional Rent and other sums due or which would be due and payable under this Lease as of the date of Tenant’s default through the end of the scheduled Lease Term exceeds (B) the fair market rental value of the Premises over the same Period as reasonably determined by Landlord, plus (ii) all expenses (including reasonable broker and attorneys’ fees) and value of all vacancy periods projected by Landlord to be incurred in connection with the reletting of the Premises. The present value shall be calculated using a discount factor equal to the yield of the United States Treasury Note or Bill, as appropriate, having a maturity period approximately commensurate to the remainder of the

- 24 -

Lease Term, and such resulting amount shall be payable to Landlord in a lump sum on demand, it being understood that upon payment of such liquidated and agreed final damages, Tenant shall be released from further liability for payment of Monthly Base Rent under this Lease with respect to the period after the date of such payment. Landlord’s determination as to the fair market value and projected vacancy period shall be presumptively correct and Tenant shall have the burden of proving otherwise by clear and convincing evidence. Landlord may bring suit to collect any such damages at any time after an Event of Default shall have occurred. In the event Landlord relets the Premises for a term extending beyond the scheduled expiration of the Lease Term, it is understood that Tenant will not be entitled to apply any base rent, additional rent or other sums generated or projected to be generated in the period extending beyond the scheduled expiration of the Lease Term (collectively, the “Extra Rent”) against Landlord’s damages. Similarly in proving the amount that would be received by Landlord upon a reletting of the Premises as set forth in clause (b)(ii) above, Tenant shall not take into account the Extra Rent. The provisions contained in this Section shall be in addition to, and shall not prevent the enforcement of, any claim Landlord may have against Tenant for anticipatory breach of this Lease. Nothing herein shall be construed to affect or prejudice Landlord’s right to prove, and claim in full, unpaid Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent accrued prior to termination of this Lease. If Landlord is entitled, or Tenant is required, pursuant to any provision hereof to take any action upon the termination of the Lease Term, then Landlord shall be entitled, and Tenant shall be required, to take such action also upon the termination of Tenant’s right of possession. With respect to all of Landlord’s rights and remedies set forth above, any and all amounts held by Landlord as a Security Deposit, or as a part of the Reserve Account, shall be applied for Tenant’s benefit and shall reduce any amounts or damages that Tenant is to pay to Landlord hereunder.

     17.3 Tenant Waiver. Tenant hereby expressly waives, for itself and all persons claiming by, through or under it, any right of redemption, re-entry or restoration of the operation of this Lease under any present or future Law, including without limitation any such right which Tenant would otherwise have in case Tenant shall be dispossessed for any cause, or in case Landlord shall obtain possession of the Premises as herein provided.

     17.4 Landlord’s Rights Cumulative. All rights and remedies of Landlord set forth in this Lease are cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, including those available as a result of any anticipatory breach of this Lease, but excluding, punitive damages. The exercise by Landlord of any such right or remedy shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy. No delay or failure by Landlord to exercise or enforce any of Landlord’s rights or remedies or Tenant’s obligations shall constitute a waiver of any such rights, remedies or obligations. Landlord shall not be deemed to have waived any default by Tenant unless such waiver expressly is set forth in a written instrument signed by Landlord. If Landlord waives in writing any default by Tenant, such waiver shall not be construed as a waiver of any covenant, condition or agreement set forth in this Lease except as to the specific circumstances described in such written waiver.

     17.5 Accord and Satisfaction. If Landlord shall institute proceedings against Tenant and a compromise or settlement thereof shall be made, then the same shall not constitute a waiver of the same or of any other covenant, condition or agreement set forth herein, nor of any of Landlord’s rights hereunder. Neither the payment by Tenant of a lesser amount than the

- 25 -

monthly installment of Monthly Base Rent, Additional Rent or of any sums due hereunder nor any endorsement or statement on any check or letter accompanying a check for payment of rent or other sums payable hereunder shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction. Landlord may accept the same without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such rent or other sums or to pursue any other remedy. Notwithstanding any request or designation by Tenant, Landlord may apply any payment received from Tenant to any payment then due. No re-entry by Landlord, and no acceptance by Landlord of keys from Tenant, shall be considered an acceptance of a surrender of this Lease.

     17.6 Default Rate. If Tenant fails to make any payment to any third party or to do any act herein required to be made or done by Tenant, then Landlord may, but shall not be required to, make such payment or do such act. The taking of such action by Landlord shall not be considered a cure of such default by Tenant or prevent Landlord from pursuing any remedy it is otherwise entitled to in connection with such default. If Landlord elects to make such payment or do such act, Landlord shall give Tenant notice thereof, in which case all expenses incurred by Landlord, plus interest thereon at a rate (the “Default Rate”) equal to the lesser of (a) the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum or (ii) the rate per annum which is five (5) whole percentage points higher than the prime rate published in the Money Rates section of the Wall Street Journal, or (b) the highest lawful rate per annum, from the date paid by Landlord to the date of payment thereof by Tenant, shall constitute Additional Rent due hereunder.

     17.7 Joint and Several Liability. If more than one person or entity shall constitute Tenant, then the liability of each such person or entity shall be joint and several. If Tenant is a general partnership or other entity the partners or members of which are subject to personal liability, then the liability of each such partner or member shall be joint and several. No waiver, release or modification of the obligations of any such person or entity shall affect the obligations of any other such person or entity.

ARTICLE XVIII
BANKRUPTCY

     18.1 Events of Bankruptcy. An “Event of Insolvency” is the occurrence with respect to any of Tenant, Guarantor or a General Partner of any of the following: (a) becoming insolvent, as that term is defined in Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or under the insolvency laws of any state (the “Insolvency Laws”); (b) the earlier to occur of either (i) the filing of a petition for the appointment of a receiver or custodian or (ii) the appointment of a receiver or custodian for any property of such entity or person, or (iii) the institution of a foreclosure, replevin or attachment action upon any property of such entity or person; (c) filing of a voluntary petition under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or Insolvency Laws or the admission in writing of its or his inability to pay debts generally as they become due; (d) filing of an involuntary petition against such entity or person as the alleged debtor under the Bankruptcy Code or Insolvency Laws which either (i) is not dismissed within thirty (30) days after filing, or (ii) results in the issuance of an order for relief against the alleged debtor; (e) making or consenting to an assignment for the benefit of creditors or a composition of creditors; or (f) submitting (either before or after execution hereof) to Landlord any financial statement containing any material inaccuracy or omission.

- 26 -

     18.2 Remedies. Upon an Event of Insolvency, Landlord shall have all rights and remedies available pursuant to Article XVII; provided, however, that while a case (the “Case”) in which Tenant is the alleged debtor under the Bankruptcy Code is pending, Landlord’s right to terminate this Lease shall be subject, to the extent required by the Bankruptcy Code, to any rights of Tenant or its trustee in bankruptcy (collectively, “Trustee”) to assume or assume and assign this Lease pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code. After the commencement of a Case: (i) Trustee shall perform all post-petition obligations of Tenant under this Lease; and (ii) if Landlord is entitled to damages (including, without limitation, unpaid rent) pursuant to the terms of this Lease, then all such damages shall be entitled to administrative expense priority pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code. Any person or entity to which this Lease is assigned pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code shall be deemed without further act or deed to have assumed all of the obligations arising under this Lease, and any such assignee shall upon request execute and deliver to Landlord an instrument confirming such assumption. Trustee shall not have the right to assume or assign this Lease unless Trustee promptly (a) cures all defaults under this Lease, (b) compensates Landlord for damages incurred as a result of such defaults, (c) provides adequate assurance of future performance on the part of Trustee as debtor in possession or Trustee’s assignee, and (d) complies with all other requirements of the Bankruptcy Code. If Trustee fails to assume or assume and assign this Lease in accordance with the requirements of the Bankruptcy Code within sixty (60) days after the initiation of the Case, then Trustee shall be deemed to have rejected this Lease. If this Lease is rejected or deemed rejected, then Landlord shall have all rights and remedies available to it pursuant to Article XVII. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that adequate assurance of future performance shall require, among other things, that the following minimum criteria (which Landlord and Tenant agree are commercially reasonable) be met: (1) Tenant’s gross receipts in the ordinary course of business during the thirty (30) days preceding the Case must be greater than ten (10) times the next monthly installment of Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent due; (2) both the average and median of Tenant’s monthly gross receipts in the ordinary course of business during the seven (7) months preceding the Case must be greater than the next monthly installment of Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent due; (3) Trustee must pay its estimated pro-rata share of the cost of all services performed or provided by Landlord (whether directly or through agents or contractors and whether or not previously included as part of Monthly Base Rent) in advance of the performance or provision of such services; (4) Trustee must agree that Tenant’s business shall be conducted in a first-class manner, and that no liquidating sale, auction or other non-first-class business operation shall be conducted in the Premises; (5) Trustee must agree that the use of the Premises as stated in this Lease shall remain unchanged and that no prohibited use shall be permitted; (6) Trustee must pay at the time the next monthly installment of Monthly Base Rent is due, in addition to such installment, an amount equal to the monthly installments of Monthly Base Rent, and Additional Rent due for the next six (6) months thereafter, such amount to be held as a security deposit in addition to the Security Deposit; (7) Trustee must agree to pay, at any time Landlord draws on such security deposit, the amount necessary to restore such security deposit to its original amount; (8) Trustee must comply with all duties and obligations of Tenant under this Lease; (9) the financial condition and operating performance of the proposed assignee and its guarantors, if any, shall be similar to the financial condition and operating performance of the Tenant and Guarantor as of the Effective Date; and (10) all assurances of future performance specified in the Bankruptcy Code must be provided.

ARTICLE XIX
SUBORDINATION

     19.1 Subordination and Non-Disturbance. Subject to the requirement set forth below that a mortgagee or lender agree to certain non-disturbance agreements with Tenant, this Lease is subject and subordinate to the lien, provisions, operation and effect of any Mortgage, to all funds and indebtedness intended to be secured thereby, and to all renewals, extensions, modifications, recastings or refinancings thereof. A Lender holding a Mortgage to which this Lease is subordinate shall have the right (subject to any required approval of the holder of any superior Mortgage) at any time to declare this Lease to be superior to the lien, provisions, operation and effect of such Mortgage and Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver all documents required by such Lender in confirmation thereof. In each instance, Landlord shall obtain for Tenant a non-disturbance agreement providing for the continuation of this Lease in the event of any such transfer of the Premises (subject to the terms and conditions contained therein), on the standard form of each Lender. Within five (5) Business Days after Landlord’s request, Tenant shall execute documents required by Lender confirming the foregoing subordination. Tenant appoints Landlord as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact to execute any such document for Tenant.

     19.2 Attornment. Tenant waives the provisions of any statute or rule of law now or hereafter in effect which may give or purport to give Tenant any right to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and Tenant’s obligations hereunder in the event any foreclosure proceeding is prosecuted or completed or in the event the Premises or Landlord’s interest therein is transferred by foreclosure, by deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise. If this Lease is not extinguished upon any such transfer or by the transferee following such transfer, then, within five Business Days of a written request of such transferee, Tenant shall attorn to such transferee and shall recognize such transferee as the landlord under this Lease. Tenant agrees that upon any such attornment, such transferee shall not be (a) bound by any payment of the Monthly Base Rent or Additional Rent more than one (1) month in advance, except adequate assurance payments required under Section 18.2 above and prepayments in the nature of security for the performance by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease, but only to the extent such prepayments have been delivered to such transferee, (b) bound by any amendment of this Lease made without the written consent of any Lender existing as of the date of such amendment, (c) liable for damages for any breach, act or omission of any prior landlord, or (d) subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord; provided, however, that Tenant’s agreements hereunder are subject and conditioned upon the transferee’s agreement that after succeeding to Landlord’s interest under this Lease, such transferee shall agree to perform in accordance with the terms of this Lease all obligations of Landlord arising after the date of transfer. Within ten (10) Business Days of a written request of such transferee, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any reasonable document submitted to Tenant confirming such attornment.

     19.3 Lender Required Modifications. If any prospective or current Lender requires that modifications to this Lease be obtained, and provided that such modifications (a) are reasonable, (b) do not adversely affect or in any way limit, restrict or modify Tenant’s use of the Premises as herein permitted, and (c) do not increase the Monthly Base Rent, Additional Rent and/or any other sums to be paid by Tenant, then Landlord may submit to Tenant an amendment

- 28 -

to this Lease incorporating such required modifications, and Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver such amendment to Landlord within five (5) days after Tenant’s receipt thereof.

     19.4 Lender Cure Rights. If (a) the Premises are at any time subject to a Mortgage, (b) this Lease and rent payable hereunder is assigned to the Lender, and (c) the Tenant is given notice of such assignment, including the name and address of the assignee, then, in that event, Tenant shall not terminate this Lease or make any abatement in the rent payable hereunder for any default on the part of the Landlord without first giving notice, in the manner provided elsewhere in this Lease for the giving of notices, to the Lender, specifying the default in reasonable detail, and affording such Lender a reasonable opportunity to make performance, at its election, for and on behalf of the Landlord, except that (i) such Lender shall have at least thirty (30) days to cure the default; (ii) if such default cannot be cured with reasonable diligence and continuity within thirty (30) days, such Lender shall have any additional time as may be reasonably necessary to cure the default with reasonable diligence and continuity; and (iii) if the default cannot reasonably be cured without such Lender having obtained possession of the Premises, such Lender shall have such additional time as may be reasonably necessary under the circumstances to obtain possession of the Premises and thereafter to cure the default with reasonable diligence and continuity. If more than one such Lender makes a written request to Landlord to cure the default, the Lender making the request whose lien is the most senior shall have such right.

ARTICLE XX
END OF LEASE TERM; HOLDING OVER

     20.1 Condition of Premises. At the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or Tenant’s right of possession, Tenant shall: (a) surrender possession of the Premises in first class condition and good repair and free of debris, subject to normal wear and tear and fire or other casualty damage, provided that Tenant has fully complied with its obligations in Article VIII of this Lease, (b) ensure that all signs, furnishings, furniture, Trade Fixtures and personal property have been removed from the Premises, (c) ensure that any damage caused by such removal has been repaired in a good and workmanlike manner, and (d) deliver to Landlord all keys and security cards to the Premises and the improvements thereon, whether such keys were furnished by Landlord or otherwise procured by Tenant, and shall inform Landlord of the combination of each lock, safe and vault, if any, in the Premises.

     20.2 Abandoned Property. If Tenant shall fail to remove any items from the Premises as specified above, then Landlord may retain the same or remove them at Tenant’s expense, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord’s reasonable expenses therefore upon demand. All property removed from the Premises by Landlord may be handled, discarded or stored by Landlord at Tenant’s expense, and Landlord shall in no event be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping for such property. All such property shall at Landlord’s option be conclusively deemed to have been conveyed by Tenant to Landlord as if by bill of sale without payment by Landlord.

     20.3 Return of Security Deposit. Within sixty (60) days after the later of (i) the expiration of the Lease Term and (ii) Tenant’s vacating the Premises, Landlord shall return the

- 29 -

Security Deposit, and, if not previously released in accordance with the provisions of Article XI, the Additional Security Deposit, to Tenant, less such portion thereof as Landlord shall have appropriated to satisfy any of Tenant’s obligations or any default by Tenant under this Lease.

     20.4 Hold Over. If Tenant (or anyone claiming through Tenant) does not immediately surrender the Premises or any portion thereof upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, then Tenant shall automatically forfeit all rights to the Security Deposit, including the Additional Security Deposit, then being held by Landlord pursuant to this Lease the Monthly Base Rent payable by Tenant hereunder shall be increased to equal two hundred percent (200%) of the Monthly Base Rent that would have been payable pursuant to the provisions of this Lease if the Lease Term had continued during such holdover period. Such rent shall be computed by Landlord and paid by Tenant on the first day of each calendar month thereafter until the Premises have been vacated. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, Landlord’s acceptance of such rent shall not in any manner adversely affect Landlord’s other rights and remedies, including Landlord’s right to evict Tenant and to recover all damages permitted hereunder. Any such holdover shall be deemed to be a tenancy-at-sufferance and not a tenancy-at-will or tenancy from month-to-month. In no event shall any holdover be deemed a permitted extension or renewal of the Lease Term, and nothing contained herein shall be construed to constitute Landlord’s consent to any holdover or to give Tenant any right with respect thereto.

ARTICLE XXI
QUIET ENJOYMENT

     21.1 Landlord covenants that it has the right to enter into this Lease, and that if Tenant shall perform timely all of its obligations hereunder, then, subject to the provisions of this Lease, Tenant shall during the Lease Term peaceably and quietly occupy and enjoy the full possession of the Premises without hindrance by Landlord or any party claiming through or under Landlord.

ARTICLE XXII

     22.1 Renewal Right. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the right, exercisable at Tenant’s option, to renew the term of this Lease for one (1) successive term of five (5) years. If exercised, and if the conditions applicable thereto have been satisfied, the renewal term of this Lease (the “Renewal Term”) shall commence immediately following the end of the initial Lease Term provided in Section 1.8 of this Lease. The right of renewal herein granted to Tenant is personal to Tenant (and may not be exercised by any assignee of Tenant) and shall be subject to, and shall be exercised in accordance with, the following terms and conditions:

               (a) Tenant shall exercise its right of renewal with respect to the Renewal Term by giving Landlord irrevocable written notice (the “Renewal Notice”) thereof not later than eighteen (18) months prior to the expiration of the term of this Lease.

               (b) All terms and conditions of this Lease, including without limitation, all provisions governing the payment of Additional Rent, shall remain in full force and effect during the Renewal Term, except that the Monthly Base Rent shall equal the greater of (i) the Monthly

- 30 -

Base Rent payable during the last month of the last Lease Year of the initial Lease Term, which Monthly Base Rent shall be escalated on the first day of the Renewal Term by three percent (3%), and (ii) Fair Market Rent.

               (c) If there exists an Event of Default under this Lease on the date Tenant sends the Renewal Notice or any time thereafter until the Renewal Term is to commence, at Landlord’s election, such Renewal Term shall not commence.

     22.2 Fair Market Rent. For purposes of this Lease, the Fair Market Rent shall be determined by three (3) independent appraisers who are members of the Appraisal Institute and are recognized as knowledgeable and reputable in the field. Landlord shall select an appraiser, Tenant shall select an appraiser, and the appraisers selected by Landlord and Tenant shall select the third. Landlord and Tenant each shall select its appraiser within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice exercising its option to extend the Lease Term, and the third appraiser shall be selected within five (5) days after Landlord’s and Tenant’s selections. Landlord and Tenant each shall be responsible for the fees of its appraiser, and Landlord and Tenant shall share equally the fees of the third appraiser. Each appraiser, within fifteen (15) days after selection of the third (3rd) appraiser, shall deliver to Landlord and Tenant its written report setting forth the fair market rent for the Premises, which determination shall be based upon the highest and best use of the Premises, taking into consideration the location of the Premises and other properties comparable thereto. The “Fair Market Rent” shall mean the arithmetic mean of the two (2) fair market rent determinations that are closest in value. In the event the values of (a) the difference between the highest appraised rent and the next lower appraised rent, and (b) the difference between the lowest appraised rent and the next higher appraised rent, are equal, then the Fair Market Rent shall be the arithmetic mean of the fair market rent determinations of all of the appraisers.

ARTICLE XXIII
GENERAL PROVISIONS

     23.1 Relationship Between Landlord and Tenant. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as creating any relationship between Landlord and Tenant other than that of landlord and tenant. Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything in connection with Tenant’s business or advertising that in the reasonable judgment of Landlord may reflect unfavorably on Landlord or the Premises or confuse or mislead the public as to any apparent connection or relationship between Landlord, the Premises and Tenant.

     23.2 Brokers. Landlord and Tenant each warrants to the other that in connection with this Lease it has not employed or dealt with any third party broker, agent or finder. Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from and against any claim for brokerage or other commissions asserted by any broker, agent or finder employed by Landlord or with whom Landlord has dealt. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any claim for brokerage or other commissions asserted by any broker, agent or finder employed by Tenant or with whom Tenant has dealt.

- 31 -

     23.3 Estoppel. At any time and from time to time, upon not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice, Tenant and each subtenant, assignee, licensee or concessionaire or occupant of Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord and/or any other person or entity designated by Landlord, a written statement certifying: (a) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that this Lease is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications); (b) the dates to which the Monthly Base Rent and any other charges have been paid; (c) to Tenant’s knowledge whether or not Landlord is in default in the performance of any obligation, and if so, specifying the nature of such default; (d) the address to which notices to Tenant are to be sent; (e) that, subject to Lender’s execution and Tenant’s receipt of non-disturbance agreement, this Lease is subject and subordinate to all Mortgages encumbering the Premises; (f) that Tenant has accepted the Premises; and (g) such other matters as Landlord may reasonably request. Any such statement may be relied upon by any owner of the Premises, any prospective purchaser of the Premises, any Lender or prospective Lender or any other person or entity. Tenant acknowledges that time is of the essence to the delivery of such statements and that Tenant’s failure to deliver timely such statements may cause substantial damages resulting from, for example, delays in obtaining financing secured by the Premises. Tenant shall be liable for all such damages. If any such statement is not delivered timely by Tenant, then all matters set forth above shall be deemed true and accurate.

     23.4 Arbitration.

               (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, except with respect to the payment of Monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent hereunder, in the event a controversy arises between the parties as to any of the requirements of this Lease, which the parties are unable to resolve, the parties agree to waive the remedy of litigation (except for extraordinary relief in an emergency situation) and agree that such controversy shall be determined by arbitration as hereafter provided in this Section 23.4.

               (b) The party or parties requesting arbitration shall serve upon the other a demand therefor, in writing, specifying in detail the controversy and matter(s) to be submitted to arbitration before the American Arbitration Association. The selection of arbitrators shall be conducted pursuant to the rules for resolution of commercial disputes promulgated by the American Arbitration Association. The party or parties giving notice shall request a listing of available arbitrators from the American Arbitration Association, and each party shall respond in the selection process within fifteen (15) days after each receipt of such listings until a panel of three (3) arbitrators has been designated. If either party fails to respond within fifteen (15) days, it is agreed that the American Arbitration Association may make such selections as are necessary to complete the panel of three (3) arbitrators.

               (c) Within five (5) Business Days after the selection of the arbitration panel, the arbitrators shall give written notice to each party as to the time and the place of each meeting, which shall be held in Washington, D.C., at which the parties may appear and be heard, which shall be no later than fifteen (15) days after certification of the arbitration panel. The applicable rules shall be those in effect at the time for the resolution of commercial disputes promulgated by the American Arbitration Association. The decision of the arbitrators shall be in writing signed by a majority of the panel which decision shall be final and binding upon the parties to the

- 32 -

controversy. Provided, however, in rendering their decisions and making awards, the arbitrators shall not add to, subtract from or otherwise modify the provisions of this Lease.

     23.5 Notices.

ARTICLE XXIV
OPTION TO PURCHASE

     24.1 Provided that (a) no uncured Event of Default has occurred, (b) no event exists at the time of the exercise of the purchase option provided for herein or arises subsequent thereto, which event by notice and/or the passage of time would constitute an Event of Default if not cured within the applicable cure period, and (c) no Event of Default exists as of the Transfer Date (as hereinafter defined), Tenant shall have the right to purchase (the “Option to Purchase”) the Premises for an amount equal to the Escalated Purchase Price (as defined in Section 24.4) upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or if Tenant properly exercises its right of renewal in accordance with Article XXII hereof, upon the expiration of the Renewal Term (in

- 35 -

each case, the “Transfer Date”), subject in all events to the notice provisions of Section 24.2 below and all other terms and conditions provided below in this Article XXIV.

     24.2 Tenant may exercise the Option to Purchase only by delivering to Landlord an irrevocable written notice along with an executed Repurchase Agreement in the form attached hereto at Exhibit C (the “Repurchase Agreement”) and a cash deposit or letter of credit acceptable to Landlord, in the amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 dollars ($250,000.00) (the “Purchase Option Notice”), no fewer than eighteen (18) calendar months and no more than twenty-four (24) calendar months (the “Option Notice Date”) prior to the Transfer Date. In the event that Tenant does not provide the Purchase Option Notice by the date that is eighteen (18) months prior to the Transfer Date, the Option to Purchase shall be deemed null and void and of no further effect and shall not be extended for any reason.

     24.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if, after execution of the Repurchase Agreement hereunder, Tenant breaches any of the terms and conditions contained in the Repurchase Agreement, including without limitation, a failure to close under the Repurchase Agreement, then the Option to Purchase available hereunder shall be void and of no further force and effect.

     24.4 The “Escalated Purchase Price” shall be equal to the higher of (i) the Fair Market Value of the Premises, and (ii) the Purchase Price as of the Lease Commencement Date multiplied by an amount equal to ten percent (10%) if the Transfer Date occurs at the expiration of the initial Lease Term, or fifteen percent (15%) if the Transfer Date occurs at the expiration of the Renewal Term, plus any costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the sale of the Premises, including but not limited to costs of recordation, transfer, title insurance, survey, loan prepayment or other loan defeasance fees or costs, legal fees and any other fees, taxes or penalties so incurred by Landlord (the “Landlord Purchase Costs”).

     24.5 Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Lease, the Fair Market Value shall be determined by three (3) independent appraisers who are members of the Appraisal Institute and are recognized as knowledgeable and reputable in the field. Landlord shall select an appraiser, Tenant shall select an appraiser, and the appraisers selected by Landlord and Tenant shall select the third. Landlord and Tenant each shall select its appraiser within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of the Purchase Option Notice, and the third appraiser shall be selected within five (5) days after Landlord’s and Tenant’s selections. Landlord and Tenant each shall be responsible for the fees of its appraiser, and Landlord and Tenant shall share equally the fees of the third appraiser. Each appraiser, within fifteen (15) days after selection of the third (3rd) appraiser, shall deliver to Landlord and Tenant its written report setting forth the fair market value for the Premises, which determination shall be based upon the highest and best use of the Premises, taking into consideration the location of the Premises and other properties comparable thereto. The “Fair Market Value” shall mean the arithmetic mean of the two (2) fair market rent determinations that are closest in value. In the event the values of (a) the difference between the highest appraised rent and the next lower appraised rent, and (b) the difference between the lowest appraised rent and the next higher appraised rent, are equal, then the Fair Market Value shall be the arithmetic mean of the fair market rent determinations of all of the appraisers.

- 36 -

     24.6 This Option to Purchase is personal to Tenant and does not run with the land or any of Tenant’s rights under this Lease. Tenant may not assign, transfer, convey, sell or otherwise encumber this Option to Purchase or any of Tenant’s rights under this Article XXIV (an “Option Assignment”). Any attempted Option Assignment shall be void and of no force or effect. Any Option Assignment or attempted Option Assignment, or any termination, cancellation or surrender of this Lease, or any Change in Control (as defined herein) shall terminate any right of Tenant under this Article XXIV, whether or not the Option to Purchase has been exercised. In addition to the foregoing, any breach by Tenant of the terms and conditions contained in the Repurchase Agreement, including without limitation Tenant’s failure to close under such Repurchase Agreement, shall constitute an Event of Default under this Lease, entitling Landlord to exercise all of the rights and remedies afforded to it under this Lease, at law and in equity. During the period from and after the Option Notice Date and including the Transfer Date, Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying the Premises as the Tenant under this Lease and not as a contract vendee, and the respective rights and obligations of Landlord and Tenant with respect to the use, operation and maintenance of the Premises shall be governed by the terms, covenants and conditions contained herein.

ARTICLE XXV

The requirements of this Section 25.2 shall likewise apply to any further subleasing by any subtenant. All references herein to Section 856 of the Code also shall refer to any amendments thereof or successor provisions thereto.

- 37 -

     25.3 Personal Property. This is a lease of real property, improvements, and fixtures. No personal property is leased hereunder.

     25.4 Interests in REIT. Without limiting the generality of Section 25.1 above, Tenant covenants and agrees that, during the Lease Term, Tenant and its controlling shareholders and its or their Affiliates will not acquire, directly or indirectly, more than a nine and nine-tenths percent (9.90%) interest in the Company , within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code, and any amendments thereof or successor provisions thereto. Tenant covenants and agrees that it will divest itself or cause such others to divest themselves of such shares of the Company as may be necessary to satisfy the limitations of this Section.
