OFFICE LEASE AGREEMENT
 
THIS LEASE AGREEMENT, made and entered into by and between RADICE III, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Landlord”), and CARLSON WAGONLIT TRAVEL, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”):
 
WITNESSETH:
 
ARTICLE 1: PREMISES:
 
1.01 Premises. In consideration of the obligation of Tenant to pay rent and of the other terms, provisions and covenants hereof, Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant leases from Landlord those premises (the “Premises”) described in the Basic Lease Information Rider (the “BLI Rider”) attached to the front of this Lease and incorporated into this Lease by this reference. The real property on which the Building is located is legally described in Exhibit A. The Premises are outlined on the plan attached as Exhibit B. The Building is part of a development (the “Development”) commonly known as Radice Corporate Center.
 
ARTICLE 2: TERM OF LEASE AND COMMENCEMENT
 
2.01 Term of Lease. The term of this Lease (the “Term”) is for the period of time set forth in the BLI Rider, commencing on the Lease commencement date set forth in the BLI Rider (“Commencement Date”) and ending on the Lease expiration date as set forth in the BLI Rider (“Expiration Date”).
 
2.02 Commencement Date. The “Commencement Date” shall be April 1, 2008.
 
ARTICLE 3: BASE RENT
 
3.01 Base Rent. During the Lease Term, Tenant will pay as the base rent for the Premises (“Base Rent”) the amounts set forth in the BLI Rider, with same being payable without demand, setoff or deduction, in advance, on or before the first day of each month, in equal monthly installments of the amounts set forth in the BLI Rider plus applicable sales and other such taxes as are now or later enacted. In the event any monthly Base Rent and/or Additional Rent payment is not paid within five (5) days after it is due, Tenant agrees to pay a late charge of five (5%) percent of the amount of the payment due. Tenant further agrees that the late charge imposed is fair and reasonable, and constitutes an agreement between Landlord and Tenant as to the estimated compensation for costs and further agrees that the late charge assessed pursuant to this Lease is not interest, and the late charge assessed does not constitute a lender or borrower/creditor relationship between Landlord and Tenant, and may be treated by Landlord as Additional Rent owed by Tenant. The first full month’s rent is due on the Commencement Date.
 
ARTICLE 4: CONSTRUCTION OF PREMISES
 
4.01 Tenant is taking the premises in its “as is” condition, and Landlord will have no obligation to construct any improvements to the Premises.
 
ARTICLE 5: PERMITTED USE.
 
5.01 Permitted Use. Tenant shall use and occupy the Premises for general office purposes and for no other use or purpose. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Building or injure or annoy them, nor use or allow the Premises to be used for any improper, immoral, unlawful, or objectionable purposes or for any business, use or purpose deemed to be disreputable or inconsistent with the operation of a first class office building, nor shall Tenant cause or maintain or permit any nuisance in, on, or about the Premises. Tenant shall not commit or suffer the commission of any waste in, on, or about the Premises.
 
5.02 Compliance with Governmental Laws and Landlord’s Regulations. Tenant shall obtain any and all licenses and permits necessary for any permitted use, comply with all governmental laws, ordinances and regulations applicable to the Premises, and shall promptly comply with all governmental orders and directives for the correction, prevention and abatement of any violations or nuisances in or upon, or connected with, the Premises, all at Tenant’s sole expense. If, as a result of any change in the governmental laws, ordinances or regulations, the Premises must be altered to lawfully accommodate the use and occupancy thereof, such alterations shall be made only with the consent of Landlord, but the entire cost thereof shall be borne by Tenant based upon Tenant’s specific use of the Premises; provided that the necessity of Landlord’s consent shall in no way create any liability against Landlord for failure of Tenant to comply with such laws, ordinances or regulations.

 
4

 
 
5.03 Compliance with Fire Prevention Code. Landlord has provided sprinklers within the Premises as required by the building code of the local government where the Premises are located. Tenant shall take whatever other actions are necessary so that the Premises and Tenant’s use thereof complies with the Fire Prevention Code of the National Fire Protection Association and any other fire prevention laws, ordinances, rules or regulations applicable to the Premises.
 
ARTICLE 6: TENANT’S TAXES
 
6.01  Definition of Taxes. The term “Taxes” shall mean (a) the total of all real estate taxes, taxes attributable to improvements within the Development or any part thereof whether made by Landlord or any tenant, or attributable to the installation of fixtures, machinery, equipment, or other personal property, general and special assessments, water and sewer charges and other governmental impositions, levies and charges (of or by any federal, state, municipal or other government or governmental or public authority, including, without limitation, any school district) of every kind and nature whatsoever, extraordinary as well as ordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, and each and every installment thereof, which shall or may be levied, assessed, imposed, become due and payable, or arise in connection with the use, occupancy or possession of, or grow due or payable out of, or for, the Development or any part thereof, or any land, buildings or other improvements therein, (b) any payments to any ground lessor in reimbursement of tax payments made by such lessor, and (c) any and all costs, reasonable and customary fees and expenses paid to attorneys, appraisers and consultants for the purpose of reviewing, negotiating, or contesting the amount of the Taxes, the valuation or assessment of the Development or any portion thereof for tax purposes and any and all costs, fees and expenses arising out of or by reason of any legal or administrative proceeding related to Taxes. In the event that any part of the Development is separately assessed for the purpose of real estate taxation, then, Landlord may, at any time and from time to time, elect, which election shall be subject to revocation, to exclude that portion of the Taxes allocable to any such separately assessed part of the Development from Taxes under this Article 6. The term “Excluded Parcel” shall mean such separately assessed parts of the Development during such period when its allocable share of Taxes is excluded from Taxes. For the purposes of calculating Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes as provided in Section 6.02 hereof, the denominator shall not include that portion of the rentable area of the Development contained within an Excluded Parcel.
 
6.02 Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes. For each real estate calendar year applicable to the Term (or any renewal or extension of such Term), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, its proportionate share of taxes levied for such calendar year as calculated on the basis of the ratio set forth in Section 8.01. Landlord shall make best efforts by April 1st of each year, deliver to Tenant its estimate of such amounts payable under this Section for each calendar year. On or before the first day of the next month and on or before the first day of each month thereafter, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent such amount as Landlord shall reasonably determine to be necessary to bring and keep Tenant current. By April 1st of each calendar year, Landlord shall make best efforts to deliver to Tenant a statement showing the total amount payable by Tenant under this Section. If the statement shows an amount due from Tenant that is less than the estimated payments previously paid by Tenant, it shall be accompanied by a refund of the excess to Tenant or at Landlord’s option the excess shall be credited against the next monthly installment of rent. If the statement shows an amount due from Tenant that is more than the estimated payments previously paid by Tenant, Tenant’ shall pay the deficiency to Landlord, as additional rent, within thirty (30) days after delivery of the statement. Any payment with respect to any partial calendar year in which the Term commences or ends shall be prorated.
 
6.03 Tenant’s Taxes. Tenant shall be responsible to pay before delinquency all franchise taxes, assessments, levies or charges measured by or based in whole or in part upon the rents payable hereunder or gross receipts of Tenant and all sales taxes and other taxes imposed upon or assessed by reason of the rents and other charges payable hereunder. The Florida sales tax imposed on rent and on other charges payable hereunder shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord with the payment of Tenant’s rental payments and other charges payable hereunder.
 
ARTICLE 7: OPERATING COSTS
 
7.01 Definition of Operating Costs. The term “Operating Costs” shall mean all costs and expenses paid or incurred by Landlord or on Landlord’s behalf in connection with the ownership, leasing, management, repair, remodeling, maintenance and operation of the Building and the Development (including, without limitation, the costs of maintaining and repairing parking lots, parking structures, and easements, landscaping costs, property management fees, utility and janitorial costs, Radice Corporate Association fees and assessments and the Building’s share of costs of the Development), except the following: (i) costs of alterations of tenants’ premises; (ii) costs of capital improvements and costs of curing construction defects; (iii) depreciation; (iv) interest and principal payments on mortgages, and other debt costs (but any cost due to an increase in the interest rate over the initial rate on the original long term first lien mortgage shall be included); (v) real estate brokers’ leasing commissions or compensation; (vi) any cost or expenditure for which Landlord is reimbursed, whether by insurance proceeds or otherwise; and (vii) cost of any service furnished to any other occupant of the Building which Landlord does not provide to Tenant hereunder.

 
5

 
 
7.02 Taxes: Landlord shall pay all taxes applicable to the Property which are payable during the Term. As used herein, the term “taxes” shall mean real estate taxes, assessments (whether general or special), sewer rents, rates and charges, transit and transit district taxes, taxes based upon the receipt of Rent or other payments hereunder, and any other federal, state or local governmental charge, general, special, ordinary or extraordinary (but not including income or franchise taxes or any other taxes imposed upon or measured by Landlord’s income or profits, except as provided herein), which may now or hereafter be levied, assessed or imposed against the Property or Premises. Additionally, Landlord shall be obligated to review its taxes each year and if taxes exceed market rates for similar buildings, Landlord shall then be obligated to protest. If at any time during the term of this lease, the present method of taxation shall be changed so that in lieu of the whole or any part of any taxes, assessments or governmental charges levied, assessed or imposed on real estate and the improvements thereon, there shall be levied, assessed or imposed on Landlord a capital levy or other tax directly on the rents received therefrom and/ or a franchise tax, assessment, levy or charge measured by or based, in whole or in part, upon such rents for the present or any future building or buildings on the Premises, then all such taxes, assessments, levies or charges, or the part thereof so measured or based, shall be deemed to be included within the term “taxes” for the purposes hereof.
 
7.03  Insurance: Landlord shall provide insurance for the Property as set forth in Article 15.01(a).Should Landlord choose to self-insure, the cost of maintaining such self insurance shall be considered a part of insurance. In no event will the cost exceed the cost of maintaining first dollar coverage.
 
7.04 Other Operating Costs: Landlord shall provide for the following as they relate to the Property and the Premises: (1) trash removal; (2) landscaping; (3) property management; (4) all other labor costs, supply costs and other costs or services of any kind or nature deemed necessary or prudent by Landlord; and (5) the maintenance and/or repair of the Property and improvements as follows: (a) the roof; (b) all interior and exterior components of the Property and improvements both structural or otherwise; (c) parking lot, (d) sidewalks, alleys and any and all access drives, including the removal of snow and ice therefrom; (e) heating and air conditioning equipment, lines and fixtures; (f) plumbing equipment, lines and fixtures, including but not limited to fire sprinkler and fire control systems (if any); (g) electrical equipment, lines and fixtures; (h) all other utility equipment, lines and fixtures; (i) all ingress-egress doors to the Property; (j) exterior plate glass; (k) elevator equipment, lines and fixtures (if any); and (l) any and all other maintenance and/or repairs to the Property and improvements deemed necessary or prudent by Landlord during the Lease Term.
 
7.05 Utilities: Landlord shall pay all utility bills incurred including but not limited to water, gas, electricity, fuel, light, heat and power bills, for the Building. In the event Tenant requests and Landlord provides any of the foregoing services or any other services to Tenant at times outside normal working hours (any time other than 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Saturday, specifically excluding Sundays and Holidays), then Landlord shall have the right to bill Tenant and Tenant agrees to pay for such additional services. For purposes of this provision, “Holidays” shall include New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to furnish, or for any loss, injury or damage caused by or resulting from any variation, interruption or failure of utility services, unless caused by Landlord’s gross negligence.
 
7.06 Capital Improvements. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, depreciation of any capital improvements which are intended to reduce Operating Costs, or are required under any governmental laws, regulations or ordinances which were not applicable to the Building or the Development at the time it was constructed, or are recommended by the N.F.P.A. Life Safety Code, shall be included in Operating Costs. The useful life of any such improvement shall be reasonably determined by Landlord using GAAP In addition, interest on the undepreciated cost of any such improvement (at the prevailing construction loan rate available to Landlord on the date the cost of such improvement was incurred) shall also be included in Operating Costs. If Landlord selects the accrual method of accounting rather than the cash accounting method for Operating Costs purposes, Operating Costs shall be deemed to have been paid when such expenses have accrued. Landlord shall have the right at any time and from time to time to elect, which election shall be subject to revocation, to exclude that portion of Operating Costs attributable to any separately assessed part of the Development and any separate building within the Development. During any period that Operating Costs attributable to any separately assessed part of the Development and/or separate building are so excluded from Operating Costs, then for the purposes of calculating Tenant’s proportionate share of Operating Costs as provided in Article 8, the denominator shall not include the rentable area of such separately assessed part of the Development and/or such separate building. In the event Landlord elects to self insure, insure with a deductible in excess of $1,000 or obtain insurance coverage in which the premium fluctuates in proportion to losses incurred, then Landlord shall estimate the amount of premium that Landlord would have been required to pay to obtain insurance coverage (or insurance coverage without such provision) with a recognized carrier and such estimated amount shall be deemed to be an Operating Cost. Landlord may, in a reasonable manner, allocate insurance premiums for so-called “blanket” insurance policies which insure other properties as well as the Development and said allocated amount shall be deemed to be an Operating Cost.
 
7.07 Additional Rent.
 
(a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord the estimate for Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Operating Costs in equal monthly installments at the same time and place as Rent is to be paid. Landlord will furnish a statement of the actual Tenant’s Share no later than April 1st of each year during the Term, including the year following the year in which the Lease expires or is otherwise terminated. Tenant will pay to Landlord any deficiency as shown by such statement within thirty (30) days of receipt of such statement. Provided Tenant is not in monetary default of this Lease, Landlord will refund to Tenant any excess as shown by such statement within thirty (30) days of the date of the statement. Landlord will keep books and records showing the Operating Costs in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 
6

 
 
(b) In the event Landlord furnishes any utility or service which is included in Operating Costs to less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rentable area of the Property because (i) the average occupancy of the Property for the year in question was not equal to or greater than ninety-five percent (95%), (ii) such utility or service is not required by or provided to one or more of the tenants of the Property, or (iii) any tenant occupant is itself obtaining or providing any such utility or services, then Operating Costs for such year shall be adjusted to include all additional costs, expenses and disbursements that Landlord reasonably determines would have been incurred if Landlord had provided such utilities and services to all tenants of the Property, and shall be allocated among the tenants by the Landlord to reflect those costs which would have occurred had the Property been ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during the year in question and such utilities and services provided to all tenants. The intent of this section is to ensure that the reimbursement of Operating Costs is fairly and equitably allocated among the tenants receiving the utilities and services in question.
 
(c) To the extent the Property is part of a larger project or development, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation) to allocate to the Property an appropriate portion of those Operating Costs which are incurred with respect to the project as a whole. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that certain of the costs of management, operation and maintenance of the Development may be allocated among all of the buildings in the Development using methods of allocation that are considered reasonable and appropriate for the circumstances. Tenant hereby consents to such allocations provided that the determination of such costs and the allocation of all or part thereof to Operating Costs hereunder shall be in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. By way of example, landscaping costs for a multi-building project shall be allocated on an appropriate basis between all buildings in the project.

(d) Any and all payments (other than Base Rent) required to be made by Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall be deemed additional Rent (“Additional Rent”). Landlord shall have the same rights and remedies for said payments as for Rent.
 
7.08 Tenants Proportionate Share of Operating Costs. For each calendar year falling partly or wholly within the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent its proportionate share of Operating Costs as calculated on the basis of the ratio set forth in Section 8.01. Any payment with respect to any partial calendar year in which the Term commences or ends shall be prorated.
 
7.09 Tenants Audit. Tenant or its representatives, at Tenants cost, shall have the right after seven (7) days prior written notice to Landlord to examine Landlords books and records of Operating Costs during normal business hours following the furnishing of the statement to Tenant. Unless Tenant takes written exception to any item within ninety (90) days following the furnishing of the statement to Tenant (which item shall be paid in any event), such statement shall be considered as final and accepted by Tenant. The taking of exception to any item shall not excuse Tenant from the obligation to make timely payment based upon the statement as delivered by Landlord.

ARTICLE 8:
TENANTS PROPORTIONATE SHARE; ADDITIONS TO AND EXCLUSIONS FROM THE DEVELOPMENT
 
8.01 Tenants Proportionate Share.
 
(a) Tenants “proportionate share” as used in this Lease with respect to the Building shall mean a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the rentable area (other than any designated parking or loading areas) contained in the Premises, and the denominator of which shall be the rentable area contained in the Building, as determined by Landlord. As of the date hereof, Tenant’s proportionate share is as indicated in the BLI Rider based on a rentable area of 130,099 Rentable Square Feet.

Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon demand, any and all expenses incurred in such removal and all storage charges against such property so long as the same shall be in Landlord’s possession or under Landlord’s control. Any such property of Tenant not retaken by Tenant from storage within ninety (90) days after the removal from the Premises shall conclusively be presumed to have been conveyed by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease as a bill of sale without further payment or credit by Landlord to Tenant.
 
(vii) In the event Tenant fails to pay any installment of rent, including any amount treated as additional rent hereunder, or other sums hereunder as and when such installment or other charge is due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand a late charge in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such installment or other charge overdue in any month and five percent (5% ) each month thereafter until paid in full to help defray the additional cost to Landlord for processing such late payments, and such late charge shall be additional rent hereunder and the failure to pay such late charge within ten (10) days after demand therefore shall be an additional event of default hereunder. In the event Tenant fails to cure a non-monetary default within the time period set forth in Article 20.01(b) Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand a late charge of $250.00 per occurrence to help defray the additional cost to Landlord for processing such default.

The Extension Term shall commence on the day next succeeding the expiration date of the initial Term in accordance with and subject to the terms, covenants, and conditions hereinafter set forth.
 
(a)     Tenant shall exercise the Extension Option by sending a written notice thereof (the “Extension Notice”) by mail, fax or an overnight courier service to the Landlord on or before the date that is six (6) months prior to the expiration date, time being of the essence. If Tenant shall send the Extension Notice within the time and in the manner herein above provided, the term of the Lease shall be deemed extended for the Extension Term upon the terms, covenants, and conditions hereinafter contained in paragraph (b) (2), below.
 
If Tenant shall fail to send the Extension Notice within the time and in the manner herein above provided, the Extension Option shall cease and terminate, and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the term of this Lease.
 
(b)    The Extension Term shall be upon, and subject to, all of the terms, covenants, and conditions provided in the Lease for the initial term hereof, without any further right of extension, except:
 
 
(1)
for any terms, covenants, or conditions in the Lease that are either expressly or by their nature inapplicable to the Extension Term; and
 
 
(2)
the annual Base Rent payable by Tenant during the Extension Term shall be the ninety five percent (95%) of the then-prevailing market rate as reasonably determined by Landlord at the time the Extension Notice is received. The prevailing market rate shall be defined as the rate for tenants of comparable credit rating entering into new leases in comparable buildings and in comparable space within the buildings (and comparable rights and privileges as provided under this Lease) in projects of similar quality in which the Premises is located and shall take into consideration then prevailing tenant improvement allowances for such comparable space, however in no event shall the Base Rental Rate be less in the first year of the Extension Term than the final year of the initial term.
 
(c)     If this Lease is extended as herein before expressly provided, then Landlord shall have no obligations or duties to improve or to otherwise prepare the Premises, or to perform work or make any installations in connection with the Extension Term. When used in subparagraphs (a) and (b), above, the term “Tenant” shall mean only the named tenant in the Lease and no assignee, subtenant, or successor thereof, except Permitted Assignees as defined under Section 9(b) above.
 
If Landlord and Tenant should not agree upon the Base Rent payable during the Extension Term within sixty (60) days following Tenant’s Extension Notice to Landlord, then Landlord and Tenant shall each designate by written notice to the other, a real estate appraiser within ninety (90) days following Tenant’s Extension Notice. The two appraisers shall proceed to determine the then Base Rent for the Premises based on comparable space within the buildings (and comparable rights and privileges as provided under this Lease) in projects of similar quality in which the Premises is located and shall take into consideration that the Tenant shall be accepting the Premises in their “as is” condition and without a tenant improvement allowance, the length of the lease term and the credit standing of Tenant. The appraisers shall have thirty (30) days after the appraisers have been designated to agree upon the Base Rent payable during the Extension Term for the Premises. If there is a five percent (5%) or less variance between the two appraisers’ opinions as to the market rate, the Base Rent payable during the Extension Term for the purposes of this Agreement shall be the arithmetic average of the two appraisers’ figures. If there is a greater than five percent (5%) variance between the two appraisers’ opinions as to the market rate, then the two appraisers shall jointly appoint a third appraiser. The three appraisers’ shall have thirty (30) days following the appointment of the third appraiser to agree on a Base Rent payable during the Extension Term, which shall be the amount upon which any two of such three appraisers agree, or if no such agreement is reached, then the rate which represents the arithmetic average of the two rates determined by such appraisers which are numerically closest to one another, or, if all rates are numerically equidistant, the arithmetic average of all three such rates. Each party shall have the responsibility for the payment of the expenses of each of their appraisers and each shall pay one-half of the expenses of the third appraiser, if one is appointed.
