W I T N E S S E T H:

     IN CONSIDERATION of the rentals, covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth, and intending to be legally bound thereby, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

     1. Lease of Premises. Landlord does hereby lease and demise to Tenant, and Tenant does hereby take and hire from Landlord, upon and subject to the terms, conditions, covenants and provisions hereinafter set forth, all that certain piece, parcel or lot of land consisting of approximately 13.5 +/- acres (“Land”), and related improvements from time to time thereon (including, without limitation, the building(s) and improvements to be constructed thereon by Landlord consisting of approximately 55,000 square feet of office and laboratory building space thereon) (“Improvements”), situated, lying and being in the County of Dorchester, State of South Carolina. Said Land is more particularly described on Exhibit A, and said Improvements are more particularly identified in Exhibit A-1, each attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (the Land and Improvements collectively, the “Premises”).

     2. Construction of Improvements. Landlord agrees to construct certain Improvements on the Land pursuant to agreed upon plans and specifications and in accordance with the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference.

     3. Term. To Have And To Hold the Premises for and during an initial term of Twenty (20) lease years, beginning with the Full Rent Commencement Date and expiring on the last day of the month that is Twenty (20) years following the Full Rent Commencement Date as defined in Section 4 below. At the end of the initial term, provided Tenant is not in default beyond applicable notice and cure periods hereunder, Tenant shall have the right to extend the term of this Lease for an additional 10 years (the “Extension Term”) upon the terms and conditions provided herein upon the giving of written notice to Landlord at least one year prior to the end of such initial term.

     4. Full Rent Commencement Date. The Full Rent Commencement Date of this Lease shall be on the earlier to occur: (i) the date Tenant opens for business in the Premises; or (ii) Thirty (30) days after the date upon which the Premises have been Substantially Completed, as such term is defined in the Work Letter. In connection herewith, it is understood and agreed that every twelve (12) calendar months from such Full Rent Commencement Date shall constitute a “lease year”.

5. Rental. From the Commencement Date until the Full Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to the Landlord fixed rent equal to $1.00 per month, payable on the first day of each month, in advance. Such rental is paid as consideration for Landlord’s agreement to perform its obligations under this Lease prior to the Full Rent Commencement Date. Provided, however, except as set forth herein, Tenant shall have no liability for rent or for personal injury or property damage with regard to the Premises prior to the Full Rent Commencement Date unless arising by the voluntary act of Tenant or its agents or contractors.

5.1 Annual Rental.

          (a) Beginning at the Full Rent Commencement Date and continuing during the initial term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as annual rental for the Premises, an amount equal to the greater of (i) $1,000,000.00 (“Minimum Base Rent”); or (ii) ten percent (10%) of Landlord’s Investment as defined herein, subject to adjustment during the term as more fully provided herein. The term “Landlord’s Investment” shall be the sum total of (i) Landlord’s purchase price of Land in the amount of $540,000.00 and the Final Cost of the Work (as defined in Section 5.3(a)); (ii) the amount of all taxes, insurance, common area maintenance charges or expenses and special assessments related to the Land or the construction of Improvements paid for by Landlord for the period prior to the Full Rent Commencement Date and Landlord’s fees paid to third parties to review and/or procure grants (less the amount of all tax credits and funds granted to Landlord from Dorchester County or granted to Landlord due to the County’s efforts to obtain economic incentives on Tenant’s behalf, provided that such tax credits and/or funds do not create any extra cost on the Landlord, including but not limited to phantom income, and provided such are acceptable to any lender of the Landlord); and (iii) Landlord’s expenses incurred in financing the construction of the Improvements and the expenses incurred in connection with the Landlord’s obtaining and maintaining financing in the principal amount of up to Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,500,000.00) on the Improvements (the “Maximum Financed Principal”) for all mortgage, construction or other related loans, including but not limited to any mezzanine debt during the period commencing with the acquisition of the Land and continuing through Substantial Completion of the Work (“Financing”), as such expenses may change from time to time to reflect, among other things, increased annual interest expense of all Financing and other bank charges, but exclusive of fees and expenses incurred in connection with any refinancing of such Financing, (iv) the required nine percent (9%) return on the equity provided to the members and investors of Landlord during the period commencing with the acquisition of the Land and continuing through the Substantial Completion of the Work, and (v) any other costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the design, engineering and construction of the Improvements. Landlord’s Financing costs included in Landlord’s Investment (x) shall be limited to amounts financed (up to the Maximum Financed Principal) under a first mortgage with TD Bank, N.A. and mezzanine financing with MWV Community Development, Inc. or any combination of first mortgage and/or mezzanine financing (up to the Maximum Financed Principal) with any bank, trust company, national banking association, insurance company, pension or retirement trust or fund or investment company, in all cases unaffiliated with Landlord and acting on its own account or in fiduciary capacity and upon arm’s-length terms and conditions and (y) shall in no event include fees, penalties, charges and expenses incurred by Landlord as a result of Landlord’s breach or default of any obligation with respect to such Financing. Rent shall be paid in monthly installments and in no event more than one month in advance.

          (b) Such annual rental as determined under Section 5.1(a) above may vary quarterly following the Full Rent Commencement Date to reflect the amount, if any, by which the actual interest expense on the Financing actually paid by Landlord for the prior ninety (90) day period exceeds the rate of 6.25% on the anticipated first mortgage with TD Bank, N.A. for $7,500,000 and 9% on the anticipated second mortgage with MWV Community Development, Inc. for $4,000,000 (or such other interest rates as may finally be applicable to the Financing, in the event that loans are obtained from other sources). Landlord shall bill the Tenant for such interest expense difference quarterly, and the Tenant shall pay such difference to the Landlord as additional rent within thirty (30) days of such billing.

          (c) In addition to the foregoing adjustment, if Landlord receives a grant or tax credit after the Full Rent Commencement Date, the annual rental payment shall be recalculated and reduced by ten percent (10%) of the acceptable amount of such grant or such credits retained by Landlord (referred to herein as “Grant Adjustments”). Landlord shall provide ninety (90) days prior written notice to Tenant of such Grant Adjustments in annual rental. Such Grant Adjustments shall be prorated across each lease year for which such Grant Adjustment is applicable and the Monthly Rental defined below shall be adjusted accordingly. In no event shall the Grant Adjustments reduce the amount of Minimum Base Rent provided under Section 5.1(a) above.

5.2 Rental Cap. Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord’s Investment shall not exceed $14,300,000.00 (“Maximum Landlord’s Investment”). The current estimate of Landlord’s Investment, including the complete current estimate of the Cost of the Work (“Estimated Cost of the Work”), is attached to the Work Letter attached as Exhibit B to this Lease.

5.3

Cost of the Work.

     (a) As used herein, the term “Cost of the Work” shall have such meaning as set forth in the Work Letter.

     Landlord and Tenant agree and understand that the Estimated Cost of the Work may be adjusted for approved changes in the Work in accordance with the terms of the Work Letter attached hereto and for any mutually approved cost savings or cost increases that may be incurred during Landlord’s performance of the Work. The Cost of the Work as adjusted as provided herein shall comprise the “Final Cost of the Work”.

     (b) Changes to the Original Estimated Cost of the Work — If costs to perform the Work as shown on the Original Plans & Specifications attached to the Work Letter change from the Estimated Cost of the Work attached to the Work Letter, Landlord and Tenant will allocate such changes in the Costs of the Work equally between them on a 50/50 basis, provided that if such changes in the Cost of the Work for the Original Plans & Specifications cause Landlord’s Investment to exceed the Maximum Landlord’s Investment, Landlord shall be solely responsible for such excess.

     (c) Changes to Cost of Work During Design and Construction. During the course of development and construction, Landlord and Tenant will continue to exercise their best efforts to reduce the Cost of the Work. These cost savings will be accomplished by renegotiating lower prices, altering or modifying the types of materials used or equipment installed, altering or modifying the methods of installation of materials and equipment, and renegotiating costs for labor and expenses in providing construction, installation and other items involved in providing such services and improvements. If the Cost of the Work shall increase or decrease during the course of design and construction after establishing the Cost of the Work for the Original Plans & Specifications as provided in paragraph 5.3(b) above, except as a result of a Scope Change as provided in Section 5.3(d) below, Landlord and Tenant will allocate such changes in the Cost of the Work equally between them on a 50/50 basis, except that if the savings are for items within Landlord’s contract with the General Contractor (as defined in the Work Letter) such costs shall be divided with 40% to Landlord, 40% to Tenant, and 20% to said contractor. Any cost increases shall be credited against any identified cost savings. If such increases are more than the cost savings, they shall be added to the Cost of the Work. However, if at any time the then-estimated Cost of the Work causes Landlord’s Investment to be increased to an amount greater than the Maximum Landlord’s Investment, except as a result of a Scope Change under Section 5.3(d) below, Landlord shall be solely responsible for such excess.

     (d) Scope Changes — In the event that the Cost of the Work shall be increased or decreased as a result of a Scope Change (as defined in the Work Letter) requested by Tenant or required by the implementation of the CCR’s (as defined in Paragraph 6 hereof), provided that such increased expense due to the CCR’s allocable to Tenant shall in no event exceed $150,000.00, any such savings shall be allocated 50% to Tenant and 50% to Landlord, and any increase shall be allocated 100% to Tenant, paid to Landlord within thirty (30) days of receipt of an invoice for such from Landlord and offset upon Substantial Completion by any identified cost savings. The Landlord shall rebate the Tenant net cost savings allocable to the Tenant within thirty (30) days of Substantial Completion to the extent that such rebate is permissible with Landlord’s lenders.

5.4 Rental Payments. (a) Rental for the initial term beginning with the Full Rent Commencement Date shall accrue from the Full Rent Commencement Date and shall be payable in equal monthly installments on the first day of each month thereafter in advance, without notice, reduction or offset except as otherwise provided in this Lease (“Monthly Rental”).

     (b) The rental rate during the Extension Term, if any, shall be equal to the fair market rental value of the Premises as agreed upon between Landlord and Tenant, exclusive of any additional improvements constructed by and owned by Tenant.

     (c) Any other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease shall be deemed to be additional rent.

     6. Use of the Premises. Tenant shall have the right to use the Premises for any lawfully permitted use, provided that Landlord acknowledges that Tenant contemplates using the Premises for research, development and production laboratories and facilities related to biotechnology, plant genetics, agricultural products, plant material, germplasm, seedlings and

administrative office space, provided that, subject to Landlord’s obligations under the Work Letter, Tenant shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining any and all permits and approvals required for the particular operation of Tenant’s business on the Premises. Tenant acknowledges such contemplated use and is satisfied as to its ability to such use based upon its prior investigation of the statutes, permits and regulations affecting such. Tenant covenants and agrees not to occupy or use or permit the Premises to be occupied or used contrary to any statutes, rules, order, ordinance, requirement or regulation applicable thereto, and the use must comply with reciprocal easement agreements, covenants and the other Permitted Encumbrances (as defined in Section 47). Landlord shall not enter into any reciprocal easement agreements, covenants or any restrictions which may restrict the use of the Premises and any Tenant Improvements without Tenant’s prior consent, not to be unreasonably withheld. Landlord has provided to Tenant prior to execution of this Lease and Tenant has approved all existing Permitted Encumbrances.

Tenant acknowledges that the Premises constitute a portion of the Pine Hill Commerce Park, and are subject to the Declaration of Protective Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Pine Hill Commerce Park (together with the By-Laws and Architectural Standards, the “CCR’s”), a draft copy of which, dated July 1, 2010, have been previously provided to Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent, within thirty (30) days after invoice from Landlord, accompanied by copies of the billing from the Board of Directors of the Association under the CCR’s, all Assessments required to be paid by any Owner under the CCR’s, excluding any fees, fines and penalties arising as a result of Landlord’s breach of its obligations as Owner of the Land under the CCR’s. Landlord shall not approve any amendments or modifications to such draft CCR’s that would materially adversely affect Tenant’s use of the Premises for the normal conduct of its business. Before taking any action under the CCR’s in its capacity as Owner of the Premises under the CCR’s that would impact or affect Tenant’s rights and obligations under this Lease or its use of the Premises, Landlord shall obtain the prior written consent of Tenant and any mortgagee of Landlord, not to be unreasonably withheld.

     7. Maintenance and Repair. Subject to Landlord’s obligations under the Work Letter with respect to the initial Work, and except for any items covered by any builder’s warranty and during the term of such warranty, Tenant covenants and agrees that it will, at its own expense, keep and maintain in good order, condition, and repair, all portions of the Premises including, but not limited to, the roof and structure, parking lot, landscaped areas, plumbing, air-conditioning, heating and electrical equipment and improvements. On or before ninety (90) days following the Full Rent Commencement Date, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of any builder’s warranties related to the Work, and Landlord shall provide all “as built” drawings for the Premises in accordance with the Work Letter. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall take any action which will jeopardize coverage under or would violate the terms of any such warranty on the Improvements.

     8. Alterations and Improvements. Subsequent to completion of the initial Work,Tenant shall have the right and privilege to make such alterations, improvements, additions and changes, structural or otherwise, during the term of this Lease, at its own cost and expense, in and to the Premises in such manner as it may deem necessary or convenient to promote the interests of its business (“Tenant Improvements”); provided, however, that the following tenant

improvements must first be submitted to Landlord and any mortgagee of the Landlord for their written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed: (a) pertinent plans for material changes to the structural or exterior portions of the building or to the parking areas constructed by Landlord as Improvements, and (b) pertinent plans for any removal, modification or addition of Tenant Improvements to the initial Work or other portions of the Premises that cause a material decrease in the value of the Premises. For clarification, structural changes that compromise the re-usability of the Building or changes that will result in a material decrease in the value of the Building could be reasons for withholding approval. Unless objections to such changes from any mortgagee of the Landlord are received by the Tenant and the Landlord within twenty (20) days of receipt of notice thereof from the Tenant, such mortgagee shall be deemed to have accepted them. Except as noted below, any alterations, improvements, additions or changes made to the Premises by or for Tenant under the terms of this paragraph shall attach to the realty and become the property of Landlord at and upon termination of this Lease unless removed by Tenant as permitted in this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Tenant shall have the right to construct greenhouses and similar structures on other portions of the Land. Any licensed contractor hired by Tenant shall perform any work in a workman-like manner. Any exterior greenhouses or similar structures constructed by Tenant shall be property of Tenant and may be removed by Tenant at the termination of this Lease.

     9. Lien Obligation. If any mechanic’s, materialmen’s, or other similar lien is filed against the Premises as a result of any work performed by or on behalf of Tenant, except for any improvements to be constructed by Landlord for Tenant, Tenant shall discharge, bond or otherwise remove such mechanic’s, materialmen’s, or other lien within twenty (20) days after receipt of notice thereof; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right to contest any such lien by the institution of appropriate legal proceedings or otherwise, as long as Landlord’s interest in the Premises is not threatened. Tenant shall have no authority, expressed or implied, to encumber or subject the Premises or the interest of Landlord in the Premises to any mechanics’, materialmen’s, or other liens of any nature whatsoever and shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless and keep indemnified Landlord against all such liens, charges and encumbrances, including legal counsel fees. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, Tenant may enter into financing obligations securing Tenant Improvements which constitute personalty only; provided any liens related to such personalty do not affect, restrict or encumber the Land or the Improvements. In such event, Landlord will execute and deliver to Tenant’s lender a subordination agreement in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Landlord subordinating Landlord’s interest in such personalty and any other personal property of Tenant located at the Premises to the security interest of Tenant’s lender. Landlord hereby further agrees that Landlord shall have no lien or other interest in any trade fixtures, specialty equipment, intellectual property or other specialized personal property unique to Tenant’s business and operations at the Premises and Landlord hereby waives any such lien rights or other interest.

     Landlord shall be responsible for and shall discharge, bond or otherwise remove any mechanic’s, materialmen’s, or other liens against the Premises filed as a result of work performed in construction of Improvements by Landlord within twenty (20) days after receipt of notice thereof. Landlord shall deliver the Improvements on the Premises free from such liens as of the Full Rent Commencement Date. Fines, penalties and other like charges attributable to any such liens shall be borne by the Landlord and shall not be included in Landlord’s Investment,

unless any such charges are otherwise included in the Construction Budget or are attributable to acts or omissions of the Tenant.

     10. Removal of Trade Fixtures and Equipment. Tenant shall have the right to place or install in or upon the Premises such trade fixtures and equipment as it shall deem desirable for the conduct of its business, and all trade fixtures and equipment so placed in or upon the Premises at the expense of Tenant (whether or not readily removable) shall remain the property of the Tenant, and shall be removed by Tenant on or before the expiration or termination of this Lease. In the event such removal shall cause damage or disfigurement to the walls, ceilings or floors of the Premises, the cost of repairing the same shall be borne by Tenant and Tenant shall perform such repairs prior to the expiration of the Lease. Tenant may remove its furniture, trade fixtures and equipment from the Premises prior to the termination of this Lease, provided that Tenant shall repair, at Tenant’s expense, any damage caused by such removal. Landlord shall not be responsible for any loss or damage occurring to any property owned by Tenant or any Subtenant, assigns, licensee, or other parties unless damage was a direct result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its representatives. All fixtures and equipment described in the Plans and Specifications for the Premises, paid for by the Landlord shall remain the property of Landlord.

     11. Surrender of Premises. Upon the expiration of this Lease, and except as set forth in Section 15, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in good order and condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted. If there are damages, then Tenant must repair prior to surrender, unless Landlord agrees to accept cash in the amount of anticipated repairs.

     12. Assignment and Subletting. Prior to assigning this Lease or subletting all or a portion of the Premises, Tenant must obtain the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided (i) the proposed assignee or subtenant has adequate financial strength to meet the commitments set forth in the proposed assignment or sublease, (ii) such assignment or subleasing shall not in any way modify the terms of any guaranties for this Lease, and (iii) such assignment or subleasing is acceptable to the Guarantors described in Section 48 of this Lease, Landlord and to any lender of the Landlord with a mortgage on the Premises. If Tenant assigns this Lease as set forth herein or sublets all or a portion of the Premises, then Tenant shall remain fully liable hereunder for any obligation whether past, present or future, unless released from such obligations by Landlord and Guarantors. Consent to any assignment or subletting for which Landlord’s consent is required shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. Any assignee or subtenant hereunder shall expressly assume in writing all obligations on Tenant’s part to be performed under this Lease from and after the effective date of the assignment or subletting. Notwithstanding the above, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet all or any portion of the Premises to any affiliate or to an entity that acquires Tenant’s business, without Landlord’s consent, provided that Tenant provides Landlord with satisfactory evidence of the consent to such assignment or subletting by all Guarantors of this Lease and provided further that no such assignment of this Lease shall be deemed to release the Tenant or any Guarantor of the Lease. “Affiliate” shall have the meaning as defined in 11 U.S.C. § 101, as in effect from time to time, except that the term “Tenant” shall be substituted for the term “Debtor” therein.

     13. Taxes.

     (a) Commencing on the Full Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall be responsible for the prompt payment of all real estate taxes, assessments and special assessments levied, assessed or imposed upon the Premises, upon all improvements erected thereon, and equipment and shall pay such taxes when the same shall become due and payable. A pro rata adjustment shall be made with respect to the commencement and ending of Tenant’s tax liability if the commencement or ending of Tenant’s liability does not coincide with the tax year. Upon failure of Tenant to make timely payment of any taxes or assessments due, Landlord shall have the right to advance the amounts required for payment directly to the authorities making such levy or assessment, and shall add the amount so paid, plus any interest and penalty imposed, to the rental accruing to the Landlord hereunder for the next succeeding month or months as the case may be. Both Landlord and Tenant shall have the right to diligently contest in good faith by proper legal proceedings any tax assessment, levy or other governmental charge or imposition, the expense of which shall be paid by the party desiring to so contest. In connection herewith, Landlord and Tenant agree, at the expense of the protesting party, to cooperate and to execute and deliver all appropriate papers, documents or other instruments which may be necessary or proper to permit said party to contest any such tax assessment or levies.

     (b) Provided that such action on the part of the Tenant does not adversely affect the Landlord and is acceptable to any lender of the Landlord, Tenant shall have the right to attempt to reduce the ad valorem taxes and other impositions for the Premises by participating in the Fee In Lieu Of Taxes (“FILOT Program”) pursuant to Title 4, Chapter 1, Title 4, Chapter 12, or/and Title 12, Chapter 44 of the Code of Laws of South Carolina 1976 (the “Code”), with respect to the ad valorem taxes assessed (or to be assessed) against the Premises and the equipment, trade fixtures and other tangible personal property proposed to be used by Tenant in connection with its use and occupancy of the Premises, available through the County of Dorchester, South Carolina. In addition, Tenant shall have the right to attempt to further reduce the ad valorem taxes imposed on the Premises by making application to have all or a portion of the Premises qualified as agricultural real property as that term is defined in Title 12 of the Code.

     (c) Landlord and Tenant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to diligently pursue all necessary approvals for the Premises for the FILOT Program and/or the agricultural real property designation. The approvals may require applications by both Landlord and Tenant. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Landlord has agreed to pursue such approvals solely as an accommodation to Tenant. Tenant shall be responsible for paying all fees in connection therewith. Landlord agrees to provide Tenant and Dorchester County such information concerning Landlord and the Premises as may be reasonably required by Tenant or Dorchester County in connection with such approvals, to join in such applications and support the same in such capacity and manner as may be reasonably required by Tenant and Dorchester County. Landlord will cooperate with Tenant in its attempt to participate in the FILOT Program and/or agricultural real property designation but Landlord shall not be obligated to incur any expenses in connection with such cooperation, except as provided above.

     (d) In the event that Tenant is successful in making the Premises part of the FILOT Program and/or receiving the agricultural real property designation, Landlord shall pass through to Tenant all reductions or abatements applicable to the Premises. Except in the event of default by Tenant under this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, Landlord agrees not to alter or modify such incentives without the prior written consent of Tenant and agrees to follow Tenant’s written instructions as to the implementation and use of such incentives, including, but not limited to, the allocation of infrastructure improvement credits, provided, however, that all reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in connection with following Tenant’s instructions or otherwise in connection with obtaining and implementing such economic development incentives shall be paid for by Tenant as additional rent hereunder.

     14. Insurance/Indemnification. (a) Tenant agrees to defend, indemnify and/or hold and save Landlord harmless at all times during the initial term and any renewal terms hereof from and against any and all loss, damage, cost or expense on account of any claim for injury (including death) or damage either to person or third party property sustained by Landlord or by any other person which arises out of the use and occupancy of the Premises by Tenant (except those resulting from Landlord’s unlawful or negligent acts). In connection herewith, commencing on the Full Rent Commencement Date, Tenant at its own cost and expense shall provide and keep in force with Landlord as an additional insured, a general liability policy or policies in standard form protecting Tenant and Landlord against any and all liability occasioned by accident or disaster with minimum limits of $2,000,000 (per occurrence) / $5,000,000 (general aggregate), which amounts may be satisfied through primary and umbrella coverage. A renewal policy shall be secured not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of any policy.

Prior to the Full Rent Commencement Date and during the period of construction of the Improvements, Landlord will carry or will cause its contractor to carry builder’s risk insurance in amounts and with carriers reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant on buildings and all improvements on the Premises and for all Improvements constructed by Landlord, shall name Tenant as an additional insured against hazards customarily insured against by builder’s risk coverage type of insurance as now contained in policies in effect in the state where the Premises are located in an amount equal to not less than the full replacement value of all Improvements constructed by Landlord on the Premises, and to pay the premium or premiums on said insurance promptly when due. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that proceeds from any such policy will be made payable first to any secured lender of the Landlord. Landlord shall provide to Tenant copies of insurance certificates upon request.

     (b) Commencing on the Full Rent Commencement Date, Tenant covenants and agrees to carry fire and extended coverage insurance (including coverage for damage by flood (if the Building is located in a flood zone), hurricane and business interruption (in at least the amounts of the annual rental amounts due under this lease)) in amounts and with carriers reasonably satisfactory to Landlord on buildings and all improvements on the Premises and for all Improvements constructed by Landlord, shall name Landlord and any secured lender to the Landlord as additional insureds against hazards customarily insured against by fire and extended coverage type of insurance as now contained in policies in effect in the state where the Premises are located in an amount equal to not less than the full replacement value of all Improvements constructed by Landlord on the Premises, and to pay the premium or premiums on said insurance

Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that proceeds from any such policy (excluding any proceeds allocable to any personal property of Tenant, improvements constructed by Tenant and any business interruption coverage) will be made payable first to any secured lender of the Landlord. Tenant shall provide to Landlord copies of insurance certificates upon request.

     (c) All insurance which Tenant shall, or is obligated to, maintain under the terms and provisions of this Lease shall (i) name Landlord, any lender to Landlord (through an additional insured endorsement), and such other persons or firms as shall be specified by Landlord from time to time, as additional insureds; (ii) shall be issued by insurance companies licensed in the State of South Carolina and having an A.M. Best rating of A:XV or better or the equivalent thereof; (iii) shall not have a deductible amount exceeding $50,000; and (iv) specifically provide that the insurance afforded by such policy for the benefit of Landlord and Landlord’s mortgagees, shall be primary and any insurance carried by Landlord and Landlord’s mortgagees shall be excess and non-contributing. If Tenant provides any insurance required by this Lease in the form of a blanket policy, Tenant shall furnish satisfactory proof that such blanket policy complies in all respect with the provisions of this Lease, and that the coverage thereunder is at least equal to the coverage which would be provided under a separate policy covering only the Leased Premises. Tenant shall deposit the certificates of such insurance with Landlord at least five (5) days prior to Tenant taking possession of the Leased Premises or entering the Leased Premises on a regular basis and shall deposit copies of the policy or policies of such insurance within thirty (30) days of the Full Rent Commencement Date. Should Tenant fail to purchase the insurance called for herein and to deliver said policies, certificates or duplicates thereof, to Landlord, Landlord shall have the right at its option, upon written notice to Tenant, in addition to all other rights or remedies available to Landlord hereunder, to procure said insurance, and pay the requisite premiums therefore, in which event, Tenant shall pay all sums so expended by Landlord to Landlord as Additional Rent upon demand. All such policies shall, to the extent obtainable, contain an agreement by the insurers that such policies shall not be canceled without at least thirty days prior written notice to Landlord and to the holder of any mortgage to whom loss hereunder may be payable.

     15. Loss by Fire or Other Casualty. Except as otherwise set forth below, if the Improvements on the Premises shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty after the Full Rent Commencement Date, Tenant, within a reasonable time from the date of such damage or destruction, shall make necessary alterations, repairs and/or replacements to such Improvements for the purpose of restoring said Improvements to the same condition such Improvements were in immediately prior to such fire or other casualty loss, but no casualty shall affect Tenant’s liability to pay the full amount of Rent as provided in this Lease. The Rent herein required to be paid by Tenant shall not abate during any period of untenantability caused by such damage or destruction. If, (i) in the reasonable judgment of Tenant, the damage to such Improvements is such that same cannot be restored and repaired or replaced within a period of two hundred (200) days and (ii) either any insurance proceeds are sufficient to pay off any existing loan secured by a mortgage against the Premises or Tenant agrees to and does pay any difference between such proceeds and the outstanding amount of such loan, then Tenant may, by written notice to Landlord, terminate the Lease as of the date of the damage, with insurance proceeds allocated toward repair of the Premises being paid to Landlord, or upon request by Landlord’s mortgagee, directly to such mortgagee, in an amount applicable to covered loss. If this Lease is not so cancelled, then such insurance proceeds

shall be applied to such restoration and repairs, subject to and in accordance with the disbursement procedures set forth in Section 2.06 of the first mortgage given to TD Bank, N.A. If the Premises are to be restored but, because of a Force Majeure Event, the completion of such restoration and repairs is delayed, then the time for completion of such shall be extended accordingly but the obligation to pay Rent shall continue unabated. If more than fifty percent (50%) of the Improvements or a material portion or critical area of the Premises are destroyed in the last two (2) years of any term, Tenant may terminate this Lease, whereupon all rents herein provided shall abate, but insurance proceeds shall apply to the covered loss according to the terms and conditions of the applicable policy and such insurance proceeds shall be paid to Landlord or to Landlord’s lender as may be provided in any agreements between Landlord and Landlord’s lender.

     Tenant shall be responsible for insuring and maintaining and replacing its own fixtures and equipment as well as its greenhouses and similar exterior structures.

     16. Force Majeure Events. In the event a party is unable to performs its obligations under this Lease due to inclement or severe weather condition, natural disaster, act of war or terror, labor disputes/strikes, Act of God, insurrection, civil commotion, riot, or unavoidable casualty (including casualty not covered by insurance coverage described above) such condition referred to herein as “Force Majeure Event” then such party shall be excused from performing its obligation hereunder other than the payment of Rent.

     17. Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant each waive any claim it may have against the other for any loss or damage to its property, whether caused by the negligence or fault of the other party, to the extent said loss is covered by any insurance which the waiving party is required to obtain hereunder or which such party actually maintains, whichever is greater. Each party shall cause its insurance carrier to waive any right of recovery against the other for any loss of or damage to property which loss or damage is covered by insurance (or, if the insurance required hereunder had been carried, would have been so covered). For purposes of this Section 17, any deductible with respect to a party’s insurance shall be deemed covered by, and recoverable by such party under, valid and collectable policies of insurance.

     18. Condemnation.

     (a) If all or any portion of the Premises is taken under any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding and if the remaining portion thereof is, in the reasonable judgment and discretion of Tenant, unusable or inadequate for Tenant’s purposes, this Lease shall terminate on the date which said Premises or such portion thereof is so taken and the rental shall be accounted for between Tenant and Landlord as of such date provided that the amount of such award is sufficient to pay off the debt owed to any lender of the Landlord with a first mortgage on the Premises in full. For the purpose of this section “unusable or inadequate” shall be defined as a) loss of access to the Premises; or b) loss of a material portion or critical area of the Land or the Improvements. In the event that this Lease shall not so terminate, the rent shall equitably abate from the date of such taking. In the event of a taking of the entire Premises or such portion thereof that the Premises is rendered unusable or inadequate for Tenant’s purposes, Tenant shall be entitled to share in any condemnation award made to Landlord to the extent such award includes an award for leasehold improvements to the Premises made by Tenant during the term

of this Lease, or the installation cost of Tenant’s fixtures and equipment in and to the Premises. Tenant’s share of such award shall be reduced by the condemnation award, if any, that may be made directly to Tenant by the condemning authority.

     (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a portion of the Premises is taken that renders the balance unusable or inadequate and if Tenant shall elect to terminate this Lease in accordance with Section 18(a) above, Landlord may notify Tenant, by written notice, that Landlord then owns or controls substitute land contiguous to the Land that Landlord could improve, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, to replace the portion of the original Land taken in such condemnation or eminent domain proceeding. In such case, if such contiguous land will be of equal or better utility to Tenant as the portion taken by the taking authority, as determined by Tenant in its reasonable discretion, and will be delivered within a time frame reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, then this Lease shall not terminate but shall remain in full force and effect, provided that Landlord shall deliver such additional land within the time period estimated by Landlord and such substitute land shall be deemed part of the Premises for all purposes.

     (c) In the event of a termination of this Lease, as hereinabove provided, it is understood and agreed that any such termination shall be without prejudice to the rights of either Landlord or Tenant to seek a separate award and recover from the condemning authority compensation for such damage caused by condemnation, it being further understood and agreed that neither shall have any rights in the award made to the other by any condemnation authority, except as expressly provided for hereinabove.

     19. Events of Default. (a) The following shall be deemed to be events of default by Tenant under this Lease: (i) Tenant or any Guarantor of this Lease shall file or any creditor of Tenant on behalf of Tenant shall file any petition under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law, or Tenant shall be adjudicated bankrupt, or a receiver of the business or assets of Tenant shall be appointed and such filing, adjudication or appointment shall not be vacated within ninety (90) days after notice thereof to Tenant, or Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) Tenant shall fail to make any payment of Rent when due and such failure is not cured within ten (10) days following receipt by Tenant and each Guarantor of written notice thereof by Landlord, provided, however, that Landlord shall not be obligated to give such notice and right to cure to Tenant and each Guarantor more than two (2) times per lease year; or (iii) except for the payment of Rent, Tenant shall fail to comply with any term or condition of this Lease and such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days following the giving of written notice thereof by Landlord to Tenant and all the Guarantors (unless such failure is not monetary and is of such a nature that it will require more than thirty (30) days to cure, in which case such cure period shall be extended for so long as Tenant shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the cure of such failure, and while doing so shall continue to perform all of its monetary obligations hereunder).

     (b) The following shall be deemed events of default by Landlord under this Lease: (i) Landlord fails to pay when due any sum due to Tenant hereunder, which failure continues for a period of ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such failure from Tenant to Landlord, or (ii) Landlord fails to keep, perform or observe any of the other covenants to be kept, observed or

performed by Landlord under this Lease, which failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure from Tenant to Landlord (unless such failure is of such a nature that it will require more than thirty (30) days to cure, in which case such cure period shall be extended for so long as Landlord shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the cure of such failure, and while doing so shall continue to perform all of its monetary obligations hereunder); provided, however, that Tenant shall continue to perform all of its monetary obligations under this Lease and no such default shall excuse Tenant from the payment of Rent so long as a mortgage outstanding against Landlord’s interest in the Property.

     20. Landlord Remedies. If a Default of Tenant occurs, Landlord, upon giving Tenant written notice of default and applicable opportunity to cure, may, without waiving any other rights hereunder or available to Landlord at law or in equity (Landlord’s rights being cumulative), do any of the following:

     (a) With or without terminating the Lease, reenter the Premises and retake possession of the same and any and all personal property of Tenant (except for Tenant’s trade fixtures, its specialty equipment, its intellectual property, or its other specialized personal property) located on the Premises, with or without legal process, by summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and may accelerate the rent due for the balance of the Term and Landlord shall have no duty to mitigate any loss of rent. Tenant’s liability under the Lease shall survive Landlord’s re-entry and repossession of the Premises, the institution of summary proceedings, and the issuance of any warrants with respect thereto. Landlord may relet the Premises on such terms and conditions (which may include concessions or free rent or alterations of the Premises) as Landlord, in its sole discretion, may determine. If the full rental reserved under this Lease and any of the costs, expenses or damages described below shall not be realized by Landlord, Tenant shall be liable for all damages sustained by Landlord, including any rent deficiency. For purposes of the deficiency in Rent that would have been due under this Lease during any period following Landlord’s election to accelerate rent, deficiency means the future Rent that would have been payable under this Lease for the balance of the term, discounted to present value as of the date of acceleration based on an interest rate of 5%. If, at the time that damages are to be determined under this Section Landlord has relet the Premises in whole or in part, then the deficiency in Rent means the excess of the future rent that would have been payable under this Lease over the future rent called for in the re-lease during the remainder of the term and the deficiency shall be discounted to net present value based on an interest rate of 5%. Tenant also shall be liable for all of the Landlord’s costs associated with Tenant’s default and any attempts by Landlord to relet the Premises, including Landlord’s reasonable attorney’s fees, brokerage fees, construction costs, tenant allowances, and expenses incurred in taking the actions set forth in this Section in order to place the Premises in first class condition and to re-let the Premises. Landlord, in preparing the Premises for reletting, may make alterations, repairs or replacements in the Premises as Landlord determines advisable, and the making of the alterations, repairs or replacements shall not operate to release Tenant from liability under this Lease. Landlord shall not be liable for failure to relet the Leased Premises, or, in the event that the Leased Premises are relet, for failure to collect the rent under reletting. Tenant shall not be entitled to receive the excess or any credit with respect to the excess, if any, of net rent collected over the sums payable by Tenant to Landlord.

     21. Tenant Remedies. If a default of Landlord occurs, Tenant, upon giving written notice of default to the Landlord and applicable opportunity to cure such default, may without waiving any other rights hereunder, seek any of the following remedies: (a) Tenant may bring suit to collect any amounts due from Landlord or for the specific performance of Landlord’s duties and obligations under this Lease; (b) Tenant may proceed to cure such default and demand payment of such amounts from Landlord and upon such demand, Landlord agrees to reimburse Tenant immediately for such amounts. In no event, however, shall Tenant have the ability to set off Rent against any damages which Tenant may have sustained as of result of such default.

     22. Operation. Any provision of this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not be required to make any use of the Premises or to continuously occupy the Premises or operate therein, and Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord for the failure of Tenant to open for business or to make any use of the Premises or to operate in or occupy the Premises during any particular hours or at all. Provided, however, that Tenant shall keep applicable utilities on at the Premises, maintain its security and its landscaping, maintain applicable insurance coverage on it and keep it properly heated and cooled at all times.

     23. Landlord’s Right of Entry. Tenant agrees that Landlord or its agents or representatives shall have the right with at least twenty-four (24) hours written notice to enter into and upon the Premises or any part thereof during regular business hours for the purpose of inspecting the same to ensure that the covenants and conditions of this Lease are being complied with or showing Premises to prospective purchasers. Landlord agrees it shall not have the right to show the Premises to prospective tenants or occupants without Tenant’s prior consent unless such showing is to occur after Tenant has elected not to exercise its option to renew this Lease in accordance with Section 3 above. In the case of emergency, no such notice is necessary. Except in case of emergency, Landlord’s right to enter the Premises is subject to Tenant’s security procedures and proprietary technology and confidentiality requirements.

     24. Licenses, Utility Charges, Etc. Tenant shall make payment of all sums due on account of utility services provided to the Premises, including but not limited to water, gas, electric and janitorial services as they shall accrue and be due and payable. Tenant agrees to pay its telephone and other communication charges. Tenant agrees to make payment of all sums due on account of occupational licenses and other licenses or permits necessary in the operation of the business to be conducted on the Premises. Landlord shall not take, or grant any permission or consent for any person or entity to take, any action that may interrupt or interfere with any utility service to the Premises except as may occur in connection with bona fide emergencies. In no event shall Landlord be liable for any interruption or failure in the supply of any utilities or services to the Premises as long as interruption or failure is not due to the direct actions of Landlord.

     25. Signs. Tenant shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, throughout the term of this Lease to install and maintain signs at such places upon the Premises as Landlord may approve, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld provided said installation complies with the laws and the CCR’s. Upon the expiration of this Lease, Tenant shall remove any such signs placed upon said Premises and shall repair any damage to the Premises caused by the erection or removal thereof.

     26. Indemnity of Landlord. Landlord agrees to indemnify and hold Tenant harmless against any and all expenses, loss or liability paid, suffered or incurred as a result of any breach by Landlord of any covenants or conditions of this Lease or the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Landlord, its agents, contractors or employees. Landlord further agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Tenant harmless from and against all direct and actual costs, damages, expenses, losses, fines, liabilities, and reasonable counsel fees paid, suffered or incurred as a result of any of the above described claims or any actions or proceedings brought thereon; and in case any action or proceeding is brought against Tenant by reason of any such claim, upon notice from Tenant, Landlord agrees to resist or defend at Landlord’s expense such action or proceeding by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Tenant.

     27. Indemnity of Tenant.

          (a) Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims as a result of or arising out of: (i) the breach by Tenant or any of its agents, contractors, employees or licensees of any covenant or agreement of this Lease on the part of Tenant to be performed or observed; (ii) Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises or any part thereof; or (iii) the negligence, gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Tenant or any of its agents, contractors, employees or licensees.

          (b) Tenant further agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against all direct and actual costs, damages, expenses, losses, fines, liabilities, and reasonable counsel fees paid, suffered or incurred as a result of any of the above described claims or any actions or proceedings brought thereon; and in case any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord by reason of any such claim, upon notice from Landlord, Tenant agrees to resist or defend at Tenant’s expense such action or proceeding by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

     28. Title and Quiet Enjoyment. Subject to Section 43 below, this Lease shall be subject to and subordinate to the interest of any lender of the Landlord in accordance with the terms and conditions of any loan that the Landlord may place on or involving the Premises. Subject, however to the Permitted Encumbrances and the terms and conditions of any such loan, Landlord warrants and covenants to Tenant that Landlord will be upon the Commencement Date lawfully seized and possessed of the Premises in fee simple and have good and marketable title thereto and have the full right to lease the same for the term aforesaid, and that as long as Tenant is not in default hereunder, the Tenant may peaceably and quietly have, hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises and all the appurtenances thereto.

     29. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given or served by either party to this Lease shall be deemed to have been given or delivered, as the case may be, when delivered, one (1) business day after deposit with a reputable overnight courier (such as Fedex) for next business day delivery or three (3) days after deposit in the United States Post Office, Certified or Registered Mail, Return Receipt Requested, charges prepaid, addressed to Landlord or to Tenant, as the case may be, at their respective addresses below:

          (a) Except as specifically specified below, Tenant agrees not to store any Hazardous Material on the Premises or allow the Release of any Hazardous Material on, onto or from the Premises that could result in a violation of any Environmental Law or in the creation of liability or obligations, including, without limitation, notification, deed recordation or remediation, under any Environmental Law.

shall be subject to and subordinate to the interest of any lender of the Landlord in accordance with the terms and conditions of any loan that the Landlord may place on or involving the Premises, provided and on condition that Landlord obtains for Tenant and Tenant executes a non-disturbance agreement in a form and content substantially similar to the one attached hereto as Exhibit E, providing that, so long as Tenant is not in default in the payment of rent or in the performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed beyond applicable notice and cure periods, Tenant shall not be disturbed in its possession and shall not, unless required by applicable law or regulation, be named in any action or proceeding to foreclose brought by the holder of an interest in the Premises and any such action or proceeding shall not result in the cancellation or termination of this Lease. Tenant’s execution of and consent to the terms and conditions of such non-disturbance agreement shall not be unreasonably conditioned or withheld.

Tenant agrees that, subject to the provisions of the applicable subordination and non-disturbance and attornment agreement, if the interest of Landlord in the Premises shall be transferred to and owned by a lender (“Lender”) or a successor to a Lender (“Landlord Successor”), Tenant shall be bound to Lender or Landlord Successor under all of the terms, covenants, and conditions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof remaining and any extensions or renewals thereof that may be effected in accordance with any option therefore in this Lease, with the same force and effect as if Lender or Landlord Successor were the landlord under the Lease, and Tenant does hereby agree to attorn to Lender or Landlord Successor as landlord, said attornment to be effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instruments on the part of any of the parties hereto immediately upon Lender’s succeeding to the interest of Landlord in the Premises. Tenant agrees, however, upon the election of, and written demand by, Lender within twenty (20) days after Lender receives title to the Premises, to execute an instrument in confirmation of the foregoing provisions, satisfactory to Lender, in which Tenant shall acknowledge such attornment.

     44. Liability of Landlord. Landlord’s liability to Tenant with respect to this Lease shall be limited solely to Landlord’s interest in the Premises, and Tenant shall not seek to recover from, nor be entitled to recover against, any other assets of Landlord or any party comprising Landlord or any lenders, partners, joint venturers, officers, directors, or shareholders, of Landlord.

     47. Option to Purchase and Right of First Refusal.

     47.1 Early Purchase Option. At any time during the initial twelve (12) months following the Full Rent Commencement Date of this Lease (“Early Purchase Option Period”), Tenant shall have the option to purchase the Premises upon the terms and conditions set forth below:

     i. At any time during the Early Purchase Option Period, Tenant shall provide Landlord and Guarantors with sixty (60) days written notice of its exercise of its option hereunder.

     ii. The purchase price shall be a sum equal to Landlord’s Investment as defined in Section 5 hereof, plus 5%, and further adjusted to reimburse Landlord for any increased income or other tax liability that it may incur as a result of such sale taking place within such twelve-month period.

     iii. The closing shall be held within ninety (90) days of the receipt of Tenant’s written notice of its intent to exercise its option, at which time Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a limited warranty deed conveying good and marketable title to the Premises free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, except for those matters in existence at the time Landlord acquired title to the Land and shown on Exhibit C attached hereto or such other matters as may be approved by Tenant (“Permitted Encumbrances”). The parties shall pay those closing costs as are customary for such party in Dorchester County, South Carolina. Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any documentary stamps for its deed.

     47.2 Primary Purchase Option. At any time after the initial twelve (12) months following the Full Rent Commencement Date but prior to the expiration of the thirty-sixth month following the Full Rent Commencement Date of this Lease (“Primary Purchase Option Period”), Tenant shall have the option to purchase the Premises upon the terms and conditions set forth below:

The parties shall pay those closing costs as are customary for such party in Dorchester County, South Carolina. Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any documentary stamps for its deed.

     47.3 Final Purchase Option. Unless Landlord has entered into a bona fide offer to sell the Premises (subject to Section 47.4), excluding any offer to a Lender or a Landlord Successor in connection with a threatened foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, at any time after the third anniversary of the Full Rent Commencement Date (“Final Purchase Option Period”), Tenant shall have the option to purchase the Premises upon the terms and conditions set forth below:

(a)

Tenant shall provide Landlord with sixty (60) days written notice of its exercise of its option hereunder.

(b)

The parties shall each select a qualified MAI appraiser to provide a complete summary appraisal of the value of the Property, less the value of any improvements made by Tenant. Each party shall be responsible for the expense of its respective appraiser. If the appraised value of each appraisal is within five percent (5%) of the other, the Purchase Price shall be average of the two appraisals. If the values are not within five percent (5%), then the two appraisers shall select a third qualified MAI appraiser, and the purchase price shall be the value of the two appraisals that are closest in value. The cost of the third appraiser shall be paid equally by Landlord and Tenant. Notwithstanding the above, the Purchase Price shall in no event be less than Landlord’s Investment, plus five percent (5%). If Tenant is not satisfied with the appraised value of the Property, either one of the first two appraisals received or the third appraisal upon its receipt, Tenant shall have the option to elect not to close on the purchase of the Property and to continue occupancy under this Lease. In such event, Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of all of the appraisals. Tenant’s exercise of its rights under this subparagraph shall not prejudice or extinguish Tenant’s rights to exercise its Option to Purchase in the future.

(c)

The closing shall be held within ninety (90) days of the receipt by Landlord of such notice from Tenant, at which time Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a limited warranty deed conveying good and marketable title to the Premises free and clear of all liens

and encumbrances, except Permitted Encumbrances. The parties shall pay those closing costs as are customary for such party in Dorchester County, South Carolina. Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any documentary stamps for its deed.

     47.4 Right of First Refusal. Tenant shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the Premises from Landlord. In the event that Landlord enters into a bona fide agreement to sell the Premises to a third party during such period, it shall first provide Tenant with written notice of the applicable terms and conditions of such agreement with such third party and offer to sell the Premises to Tenant in accordance therewith, whereupon Tenant shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of such written notice from Landlord in which to accept or reject such offer. The failure of Tenant to respond to such notice shall be deemed a rejection thereof. If Tenant rejects or is deemed to have rejected such offer, Landlord shall be free to conclude its sale to such third party or its assigns in accordance with its offer, provided, however, that Landlord may decrease the amount of consideration to be paid by such third party by up to 5% of the proposed purchase price and still be deemed to be in compliance with its agreement. If such third-party offer fails to close, Tenant shall be entitled to a like right of first refusal on subsequent offers involving Landlord. Provided that Landlord has performed its obligations under this Section 47.4 and Tenant has waived its right of first refusal hereunder, no subsequent purchaser of Landlord shall be subject to such right of first refusal, unless such purchaser acquired the Premises before the thirty-seventh month after the Full Rent Commencement Date. The provisions of this Section 47.4 shall not be applicable to foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or other transfer by which a Lender or a Landlord Successor acquires title to the Premises.

(a)

in the event the Work is not Substantially Completed on or before that date which is eighteen (18) months from the commencement of construction of the Improvements, such time being adjusted for Tenant Delay Days herein defined, matters reasonably beyond the control of the Landlord and Force Majeure Events, Tenant may, upon the giving of thirty (30) days prior notice to the Landlord, purchase the Land and the Improvements thereon from the Landlord at the amount of Landlord’s Investment incurred by Landlord to such date.

     6. CHANGE ORDERS. Tenant may request changes in the Work. Each such change must receive the prior written approval of Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If Tenant requests any changes to the Work described in the Plans & Specifications, then such increased or decreased costs and any additional or decreased design costs incurred in connection therewith as the result of any such change shall be accounted for as provided in the Lease. If such changes delay the completion of the Work, then, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Lease, each day of such delay shall constitute a Tenant Delay Day.

     7. “AS BUILT” DRAWINGS AND BUILDER WARRANTIES. Landlord, upon completion of the Work, shall furnish Tenant with accurate “as-built” drawings of the Work as constructed and shall provide Tenant with copies of all builder warranties obtained by the Landlord in connection with the Work.

     8. DEFINITIONS.

	a)		“Substantial Completion” and Substantially Completed” shall be achieved when (a) the Work is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Final Plans and Specifications so that Tenant can commence beneficial use and occupancy of the Premises as intended, (b) all utilities have been provided to the Premises in sufficient quantities to operate at the Premises as intended and all systems included in the Work are operational as designed and specified, (c) all governmental inspections designated or required for the Work have been successfully completed, and certificates of occupancy and other municipal permits or approvals for the Work have been obtained, in each case to the extent required to occupy the Premises as intended, (d) all final finishes required by the Final Plans and Specifications are in place (except for minor punchlist items which do not materially detract from the appearance and utility of the Premises for the intended use), (e) all remaining Work is reasonably estimated to be completed within sixty (60) consecutive calendar days (or as otherwise agreed to by Tenant) following the date of Substantial Completion, and (f) Landlord has (i) delivered to Tenant binders containing complete sets of all manufacturer’s catalogs, instructions and other similar data (including the necessary graphic cuts, diagrams, value charts, and the like) covering all mechanical and manually operated devices furnished and/or installed as part of the Work, to the extent that such material is in Landlord/s possession, and (ii) provided Tenant’s property management and operations personnel with the reasonable opportunity to be trained in the operation and maintenance of building systems and controls installed as part of the Work.
	b)		As used in this Work Letter, “Tenant Delay” shall mean any delay (measured in calendar days) in the performance or completion of all or any portion of the Work, to the extent attributable to (a) any failure by Tenant to comply with the project schedule to be developed by Landlord or to respond to any request by Landlord or its general contractor for information with such reasonable promptness, (b) any delay attributable to the entry by Tenant or Tenant’s contractors, agents or employees to the Premises prior to Substantial Completion, or (c) any delay attributable to special equipment or construction conditions required by the Tenant.

     9. WALK THROUGH-PUNCHLIST. Landlord shall provide Tenant with written notice when Landlord believes that Substantial Completion of the Work has been achieved. Such notice shall be accompanied by a list of items (the “Punchlist Items”) to be completed or

corrected. Promptly following delivery of such notice of Substantial Completion of the Work, duly authorized representatives of Landlord and Tenant shall jointly inspect the Work. The Punchlist shall be subject to review and approval by Tenant following such joint inspection. In the event that the parties shall disagree on whether any item is properly included as part of the Punchlist Items, and the parties are unable to reach agreement thereon within five (5) days after such joint inspection, either party may submit such disagreement to the architect for final determination, which determination of the architect shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. The failure to include an item on the Punchlist does not alter the responsibility of Landlord to complete all Work in accordance with the Final Plans and Specifications. Landlord shall complete the Punchlist Items on or before the date that is sixty (60) days after achieving Substantial Completion of the Work. If Landlord shall not complete all required Punchlist items within such sixty (60) day period, the date of Substantial Completion of Landlord’s Work shall be deemed extended by the number of days of such delay, except to the extent that Tenant wrongfully interferes with Landlord in completing such Punchlist items

     10. COSTS. The entire cost of performing the Work (“Cost of the Work”) shall be paid by Landlord, except as otherwise provided in Section 5.3(d) of the Lease. Upon Substantial Completion of the Work, Landlord shall provide the Tenant with a final accounting of the costs of the Work and the permitting in reasonable detail for review and audit.

     11. CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT. Landlord shall supervise the Work and make disbursements required to be made to the contractor. Tenant acknowledges that an affiliate of the Landlord will manage the development and construction of the improvements as set forth in the Construction Budget.

     12. CONSTRUCTION REPRESENTATIVES.

Tenant has agreed that the Lease will be subject and subordinate to the Mortgage held by Lender, provided Tenant is assured of continued use of the Property under the terms of the Lease.

AGREEMENT:

For and in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00) and other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, and notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, the parties agree as follows:

2.

Subordination. The Lease with all rights, options, liens and charges created by the Lease is expressly made and will be subject to and subordinate in all respects to the terms, conditions, lien, operation and effect of the Mortgage and to any renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of the Mortgage.

3.

Nondisturbance. If Lender or Lender’s assignee (“Lender’s Assignee”) takes possession of the Property or becomes the owner of the Property by foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, so long as no default of Tenant has occurred under the Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods, then Lender agrees as follows:

	(a)		Lender or Lender’s Assignee will not terminate, impair or disturb the possession of Tenant.
	(b)		The Lease will continue in full force and effect as a direct Lease between Successor Landlord (as defined in Section 4 below) and Tenant, upon and subject to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease, for the balance of the term of the Lease.

4.

Mortgage Remedies. Nothing contained in this Agreement will prevent Lender from naming Tenant in any foreclosure or other action or proceeding initiated by Lender

pursuant to the Mortgage to the extent necessary under applicable law in order for Lender to avail itself of and complete the foreclosure or other remedy, subject to the provisions of Section 2 above.

5.

Attornment. If Lender, Lender’s Assignee or any other party becomes the owner of the Property by foreclosure, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise (“Successor Landlord”), then Tenant agrees as follows:

	(a)		Tenant will perform and observe its obligations under the Lease.
	(b)		Tenant will attorn to and recognize Successor Landlord as the landlord, and Successor Landlord will recognize Tenant, under the Lease for the remainder of the term of the Lease, such attornment to be automatic and self-operative.
	(c)		Tenant will execute and deliver upon request of Successor Landlord an appropriate agreement of attornment to Successor Landlord.

	(b)		acts or omissions of the prior Landlord;
	(c)		rent or additional rent which Tenant might have paid more than thirty (30) days in advance;
	(d)		any security deposit or other prepaid charge paid to the prior Landlord;
	(e)		construction or completion of any improvements for Tenant’s use and occupancy provided that Tenant shall retain any rights it has under the Lease with respect to the purchase of the Property in accordance with Section 3(a) of the Work Letter attached to the Lease;
	(f)		warranties of any nature whatsoever, including any warranties respecting use, compliance with zoning, hazardous wastes or environmental laws, prior Landlord’s title, prior Landlord’s authority, habitability, fitness for purpose or possession; or
	(g)		amendments or modifications of the Lease made without its written consent.

7.

Successor Landlord Exculpation. Tenant will look solely to Successor Landlord’s interest in the Property for the payment and discharge of any obligation or liability imposed upon Successor Landlord under the Lease.

8.

Estoppel. To the best of Tenant’s knowledge as of the date hereof, there does not exist any default, claim, controversy or dispute under the Lease. Tenant has not commenced any action and Tenant has not sent or received any notice to terminate the Lease.

9.

Notice to Lender. Both Landlord and Tenant agree that they will deliver to Lender a copy of all notices of default or termination received by either of them under the terms of the Lease. Further, Tenant agrees to give to Lender written notice of any default by Landlord under the Lease. Lender shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such written notice of default in which, at Lender’s option, to cure such default; provided, however, that said 30-day period shall be extended so long as within said 30-day period, Lender has commenced

to cure and is proceeding with reasonable diligence to cure said default. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate Lender to cure Landlord’s defaults under the Lease.

10.

Assignment to Lender. Tenant acknowledges that the Landlord may execute and deliver to Lender an assignment of the Lease as security for the Loan and that Lender may further assign the Loan. Tenant expressly consents to such assignments.

11.

Payment of Rent. Landlord hereby agrees that if Lender notifies Tenant that Lender is entitled to receive the rent and/or any other payments including reimbursements, if any, due under the Lease pursuant to an Assignment of Rents or any other instrument or agreement signed by Landlord, then Tenant shall be entitled to comply with said instrument upon being furnished a copy of it by Landlord or Lender, and Tenant may rely on any assertion by Lender that Lender is entitled to receive the rents (and if applicable, other payments due under the Lease), whether due to Landlord’s default under the Mortgage, or otherwise, and Tenant shall have no obligation to make any independent determination as to whether the assertions of Lender are true. Any rent or other sums paid to Lender upon Lender’s demand shall be deemed to be payments to Landlord pursuant to the Lease.

12.

Invalidity. If any portion of this Agreement is held invalid or inoperative, then all of the remaining portions will remain in full force and effect, and, so far as is reasonable and possible, effect will be given to the intent manifested by the portion or portions held to be invalid or inoperative.
