(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term "Operating Expenses" shall not include: (1) the cost of any item which, by standard accounting practice, should be capitalized, except for the amortization of the cost of furnishing and installing capital improvements that are primarily for the purpose of reducing Operating Expenses or avoiding increases in Operating Expenses (provided that the amount payable by Tenant in any calendar year on account of any such capital improvement will not exceed the amount of the reduction to or the avoided increases in Operating Expenses resulting from such capital improvement); (2) any charge for depreciation, interest on encumbrances or ground rents paid or incurred by Landlord; (3) leasing commissions owed by Landlord; (4) costs actually reimbursed by insurance proceeds, (5) costs of electricity and any other utilities provided to tenant spaces (as opposed to Common Areas) in the Building to the extent such utility is included in Tenant's Additional Rent pursuant to Section 8 below; (6) damage and repairs necessitated by the willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord's employees, contractors or agents or other tenants of the Building and their employees, contractors or agents; (7) executive salaries of Landlord (not including regional property leaders), but only permissible to the extent that such salaries are pro-rated over the portfolio managed by each respective employee; (8) salaries or service personnel to the extent that such service personnel perform services not related to the management, operation, repair or maintenance of the Building or the Property; (9) Landlord's general overhead expenses not related to the Building; (10) legal fees, accountants' fees and other expenses incurred in connection with disputes with tenants or other occupants of the Building or associated with the enforcement of any leases or defense of Landlord's title to or interest in the Building or any part thereof; (11) costs, including without limitation permit, license and inspection fees, incurred in renovating or otherwise improving, decorating, painting or altering space for other tenants or other occupants or vacant space in the Building (excluding Common Areas); (12) costs incurred due to violations by Landlord or any other tenant of the Building of the terms and conditions of any lease; (13) the costs of any service provided to other tenant(s) of the Building to the extent such other tenant(s) are separately charged therefor by Landlord and the cost of any service provided to other tenant(s) of the Building but not to Tenant; (14) charitable or political donations by Landlord; (15) any cost or expense related to the testing, removal, transportation or storage of Hazardous Substances (as hereinafter defined) from the Building, other than periodic and routine testing; (16) interest, penalties or other costs arising out of Landlord's failure to make timely payments of its obligations; (17) costs associated with revenue-generating public parking areas of the Building where fees are charged for use of parking areas by the public and not by tenants of the Building; and (18) costs incurred in advertising and marketing or leasing promotional activities for the Building.

If, due to a future change in the method of taxation, any franchise, income, profit or other tax, however designated, shall be levied or imposed in substitution in whole or in part for (or in lieu of) any tax which would otherwise be included within the term "Taxes" as defined herein, then the same shall be included in the term "Taxes." If a special improvement shall hereafter be made for the sole benefit of Tenant which results in an increase in the taxable value of the Building (as opposed to general tenant improvements consistent with normal office use), then any increase in Taxes attributable to such special improvement shall be the responsibility of Tenant. Landlord shall, promptly after receipt of the tax statements, notices of assessments, or other tax-related information, provide Tenant with a copy of the same.
(e) The term "Taxes" shall not include: (1) net income taxes; (2) capital taxes; (3) transfer taxes; (4) franchise taxes; (5) gift taxes; or (6) estate taxes.
(f) In determining Operating Expenses for any year (including the Base Year), the following adjustments shall be made:
(i) if less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Building's rentable area shall have been occupied by tenants at any time during such year, Operating Expenses shall be deemed for such year to be an amount equal to the expenses which Landlord reasonably determines would normally be incurred had such occupancy been one hundred percent (100%) throughout such year
(ii) if any tenant of the Building supplies itself with a service at any time during such year that Landlord would ordinarily supply without separately charging therefor, then Operating Expenses shall be deemed to include the cost that Landlord would have incurred had Landlord supplied such service to such tenant;
(iii) Intentionally Deleted;
(iv) if any Operating Expenses incurred for the Building and/or the Property consist of shared costs and expenses with one or more other buildings or properties, whether pursuant to a reciprocal easement agreement, cost sharing agreement, common area agreement, or otherwise, the shared costs and expenses shall be equitably allocated by Landlord between the Building and/or the Property (as applicable) and such other buildings or properties.
(g) Tenant shall, upon written request to Landlord, have the right, within sixty (60) days after the end of Landlord's fiscal year, to inspect documents and records materially related to Operating Expenses charged to Tenant, and to dispute same pursuant to subsection (j) below. Landlord shall promptly provide Tenant with such documents after receipt of Tenant's timely request.

(h) Landlord may furnish to Tenant at the expiration of the Base Year, or as soon thereafter as practicable, a statement of Landlord's good faith estimate of Operating Expenses, and the amount of Tenant's Share thereof (the "Estimated Share"), for the following calendar year. Landlord shall also furnish to Tenant as soon as reasonably practicable after the beginning of each calendar year of the Term following the first calendar year: (i) a statement (the "Expense Statement") setting forth actual Operating Expenses for the previous calendar year, including Tenant's Share thereof; and (ii) a statement of Landlord's good faith estimate of Operating Expenses, and the amount of the Estimated Share for the then current calendar year. If Landlord from time to time determines that Landlord's good faith estimate is incorrect, Landlord shall have the right to provide Tenant with a revised statement of Landlord's good faith estimate of Operating Expenses for the then current year, in which event Tenant's Estimated Share shall be adjusted accordingly.
(i) In the event the Expense Statement reflects that Tenant owes additional amounts for Operating Expenses for the previous calendar year, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after Tenant receives the Expense Statement, pay to Landlord the difference between the adjusted Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses for such previous year and the actual payments made by Tenant. If the actual payments exceed Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses for such previous year, Tenant shall receive a credit against the Operating Expenses due for the next calendar month(s) or, if the Lease shall have expired, a refund of such overpayment.
(j) Unless Tenant, within one hundred twenty (120) days after any Expense Statement is furnished, has given notice to Landlord that Tenant disputes the amount due in accordance with the foregoing provisions, which notice shall specify in detail the basis for such dispute, each Expense Statement furnished to Tenant by Landlord under this Section shall be conclusively binding upon Tenant as to the Operating Expenses and Tenant's Share thereof due for the period represented thereby; provided, however, that additional amounts due may be required to be paid by any supplemental statement furnished by Landlord. Pending resolution of any dispute, Tenant shall promptly pay Tenant's Share in accordance with the Expense Statement furnished by Landlord or Landlord shall pay to Tenant within thirty (30) days the amount of the overage as determined by the review. Any payment due from Tenant to Landlord for Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses not yet determined as of the expiration of the Term shall be made within thirty (30) days after submission to Tenant of the next Expense Statement, which obligation shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. In connection with Tenant's review of records as provided in Section 7(c) above, Tenant covenants that (x) it will hold the results of any investigation into Landlord's records in the strictest confidence (provided, however, that Tenant may discuss the results of such investigation with its attorneys, accountants and other consultants and use the information obtained in the investigation to the extent required in any legal or other proceedings related thereto or as may be required by applicable law); and (ii) it will cause any consultants retained by it to adhere to a similar covenant of confidentiality for the benefit of Landlord.
(k) Beginning with the next installment of Annual Base Rent due after delivery of the statement of Tenant's Estimated Share, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses, one-twelfth (1/12) of the Estimated Share for the then current calendar year multiplied by the number of full or partial calendar months elapsed during the current calendar year up to and including the month payment is made (less any amounts previously paid by Tenant for Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses for such period). On the first day of each succeeding month up to the time Tenant shall receive a new statement of Tenant's Estimated Share, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on account of Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses, one-twelfth (1/12) of the then current Estimated Share.

7. UTILITIES FURNISHED TO DEMISED PREMISES.
(a) In addition to the Annual Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses, Tenant shall pay for all utilities (including, without limitation, electricity) that are furnished to or consumed within the Demised Premises. It is acknowledged that gas is included in Annual Rent and not separately charged to Tenant. If a submeter or direct meter is installed for any particular utility and if such submeter or direct meter is functioning properly, Tenant shall pay for its use and consumption of such utility based on its metered usage. If no meter or submeter is installed, Tenant shall pay a pro-rata share of the Aggregate Utility Charge (as hereinafter defined). The "Aggregate Utility Charge" means the total of all charges for the utility in question attributable to the Demised Premises and other areas of the Building (other than Common Areas) for the relevant billing period, and Tenant's pro-rata share shall be Tenant's Fraction multiplied by the amount due and payable for such utility; provided that if less than all of such areas have been occupied by tenants during the relevant billing period, then the Aggregate Utility Charge shall be the amount Landlord reasonably determines would normally be incurred for such utility service had all of such areas been occupied by tenants during such billing period. To the extent required, Landlord shall also make any necessary adjustments to equitably allocate the cost of utility services to the Common Areas, if such services are not separately metered.
(b) Tenant shall pay all utility bills within thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant, either from Landlord or the billing authority (but in no event later than the date due). Landlord shall have the right, to be exercised by prior written notice to Tenant and to the extent that the same may be lawfully done, to direct Tenant to contract directly with the utility provider supplying electricity and/or gas to the Building, in which event Tenant shall pay all charges therefor directly to the utility provider. Landlord shall at all times have the exclusive right to select the provider or providers of utility service to the Demised Premises and the Property, and Landlord shall have the right of access to the Demised Premises from time to time at reasonable times upon 24 hours prior notice (which notice may be given by telephone), except in the case of an emergency, in which event no prior notice need be given, to install or remove utility facilities.
8. SERVICES.
(a) Landlord shall provide or cause to be provided the following services throughout the Term:
(i) Provide water for drinking, lavatory and toilet purposes on the floor(s) on which the Demised Premises are located;
(ii) Furnish heat, ventilation and air-conditioning ("HVAC Service") to the Demised Premises customary for ordinary office purposes. Tenant shall have at all times a thermostat within the Demised Premises; there are currently 4 thermostats located within the Demised Premises;
(iii) Furnish electricity to the Demised Premises customary for ordinary office purposes. Tenant's use of electrical service shall not exceed, either in voltage, rated capacity or overall load, that which Landlord determines is standard for office use at the Building.
(iv) Provide janitorial services in accordance with Landlord's janitorial specifications set forth on Exhibit "D" attached hereto. Any and all additional or specialized janitorial service desired by Tenant shall be contracted for by Tenant directly with a vendor approved by Landlord (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), and the cost and payment thereof shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant; and
(v) Provide access to the Building and the Demised Premises twenty-four hours per day, seven days per week, subject to reasonable security measures as may be implemented by Landlord.
(b) The building in which the demised premises is located shall maintain HVAC operation Monday through Friday, 7 AM to 6 PM and Saturday 8 AM to 1 PM. After hours HVAC shall be billed on an hourly basis at a fee of $75.00 per hour, which shall be increased annually based on the percentage by which the cost of electricity to the Building has increased from the previous year, if any. Requests for after-hours service shall be made to the building manager sufficiently in advance of the required time so that Landlord shall have a reasonable time to arrange for the provision of such services. Such after-hour service shall be billed to Tenant at the rate set forth above commencing on the 10th after-hour of provided service. Without limiting the foregoing, if Tenant's usage of electricity or other utility service is substantially in excess of that for standard office tenancies (as reasonably determined by Landlord) and if such utility service to the Demised Premises is not separately metered to the Demised Premises pursuant to Section 8 above, Landlord reserves the right to adjust Tenant's pro-rata share of such charges, as referred to in Section 8(a) above, in order to equitably reflect a surcharge for such excess use.
(c) Tenant shall directly reimburse Landlord for any supplemental services requested by Tenant and supplied by Landlord, said reimbursement to be paid within ten (10) business days after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's invoice therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have no obligation to provide any such supplemental services to Tenant.
(d) It is hereby acknowledged that Landlord does not warrant that any of the services referred to in this Section will be free from interruption from causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord. No interruption of service shall ever be deemed an eviction or disturbance of Tenant's use and possession of the Demised Premises or any part thereof or render Landlord liable to Tenant for damages, permit Tenant to abate Rent or otherwise relieve Tenant from performance of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, and Tenant hereby waives any other rights against Landlord, at law or in equity, in connection therewith, including, without limitation, any right to terminate this Lease, to claim an actual or constructive eviction, or to bring an action for money damages. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, in the event of any interruption of service which continues for more than three (3) consecutive days, and which is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, Tenant shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, to an abatement of rent until such service is restored. Nothing contained herein shall limit Tenant's right to abatement in the case of a fire or other casualty or condemnation as provided in the "Fire or Casualty" or "Condemnation" Sections of this Lease.

(c) Not overload, damage or deface the Demised Premises or do any act which might make void or voidable any insurance on the Demised Premises or the Building or which may result in an increased or extra premium payable for insurance (and without prejudice to any right or remedy of Landlord regarding this subparagraph, Landlord shall have the right to collect from Tenant, upon demand, any such increase or extra premium);
(d) Not make any material alteration of or addition to the Demised Premises without the prior written approval of Landlord, except for interior, nonstructural alterations of a decorative nature that do not exceed more than Two Dollars ($2.00) per rentable square foot of the Demised Premises in the aggregate. All alterations performed to the Demised Premises by Tenant, whether or not requiring Landlord's consent, shall be performed: (i) at Tenant's sole cost and expense, (ii) by contractors and subcontractors approved in advance in writing by Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, and (iii) in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all applicable laws and ordinances. Upon completion of any alterations requiring Landlord's consent hereunder, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord's reasonable and necessary actual costs for review of all plans and specifications and final inspection of the work. All alterations to the Demised Premises by Tenant shall be the property of Tenant until the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, all such alterations shall remain at the Demised Premises and become the property of Landlord without payment by Landlord therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord, at Landlord's option, shall have the right to require that any or all of such alterations be removed upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease by providing written notice thereof to Tenant at the time Landlord grants it approval for said alteration, in which event Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall promptly remove such alterations and repair any resulting damage;
9
(e) Not install any equipment of any kind whatsoever which might necessitate any changes, replacements or additions to any of the heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, electric, sanitary, elevator or other systems serving the Demised Premises or any other portion of the Building, or to any of the services required of Landlord under this Lease, without the prior written approval of Landlord, and in the event such consent is granted, such replacements, changes or additions shall be paid for by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense. At the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord's cost of restoring such systems to their condition prior to such replacements, changes or additions, provided same was a condition of Landlord's approval therefor;
(f) Not place signs on the Demised Premises except for (i) signs located entirely within the Demised Premises and which are not visible from the exterior of the Demised Premises, and (ii) signs on doors, provided that the lettering and text are approved by Landlord;
(g) Not install or authorize the installation of any coin operated vending machine, except for the dispensing of coffee and similar beverages to the employees of Tenant for consumption upon the Demised Premises; and
(h) Observe the rules and regulations annexed hereto as Exhibit "C" as Landlord may from time to time amend the same, for the general safety, comfort and convenience of Landlod, occupants and tenants of the Building.
10. MECHANICS' LIENS. In connection with Tenant performing any alterations to the Demised Premises for which a lien could be filed against the Demised Premises or the Building, Tenant shall have its contractor execute and file in the appropriate public office a Waiver of Mechanic& Lien or Release of Mechanics' Lien, if permitted under Pennsylvania law, in form satisfactory to Landlord, and provide Landlord with a copy thereof. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after notice from Landlord, discharge or bond over any mechanics' lien for materials or labor claimed to have been furnished to the Demised Premises on Tenant's behalf (except for work contracted for by Landlord) and shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from any and all claims, costs, damages, loss, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by Landlord in connection therewith.
11. REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE. Landlord shall keep and maintain the Common Areas of the Building clean and in good working order. Landlord shall further make, or cause to be made, all necessary repairs to the structure and exterior of the Building, as well as to the mechanical, HVAC, electrical and plumbing systems servicing the Building, including the Demised Premises, provided that Landlord shall have no obligation to make any repairs until Landlord shall have received notice of the need for such repair. The cost of the foregoing maintenance and repairs shall be included in Operating Expenses except to the extent expressly, excluded therefrom pursuant to Section 7. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all repairs made necessary by Tenant's specific use, occupancy or alteration of the Building, or by the negligent acts of Tenant, its agents, employees or invitees (and, without limiting the foregoing, any repairs or maintenance required to any specialized or supplemental equipment installed by or for Tenant and not of a "building standard" nature), shall be made at the sole cost and expense of Tenant.
10
12. SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNING.
(a) Tenant shall not assign this Lease or sublet all or any portion of the Demised Premises, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, without first obtaining Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant acknowledges that, without limiting the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to withhold its consent if, by way of example and not limitation, such subtenant's or assignee's business is not for the Permitted Use or is otherwise not consistent with that of the other tenants of the Building or would significantly increase the density of personnel use, or if the proposed sublease or assignment is to an existing tenant of the Building. Landlord may also withhold consent if there is comparable space readily available in the building,
(b) Or if Tenant is in default in the payment or performance of any of its obligations hereunder and such default has continued after the expiration of any applicable notice and grace period provided for in this Lease. In addition, Tenant shall not mortgage, pledge or hypothecate this Lease. Any assignment, sublease, mortgage, pledge or hypothecation in violation of this Section shall be void at the option of Landlord and shall constitute a default hereunder without the opportunity for notice or cure by Tenant.
(c) A transfer or sale by Tenant of a majority of the voting shares, partnership interests or other controlling interests in Tenant shall be deemed an assignment of this Lease and shall be subject to Landlord's prior written consent pursuant to subparagraph (a) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as Tenant is not in Default under this Lease, upon ten (10) days prior written notice to Landlord, Tenant shall have the right, without Landlord's consent, to sublet all or a portion of the Demised Premises or to assign this Lease to any entity which is an Affiliate (as hereinafter defined) of Tenant so long as the Affiliate has a net worth (excluding intangibles) equal to or greater than the net worth (excluding intangibles) of Tenant as of the date of this Lease or as of the date of the transfer, whichever is greater. As used herein, "Affiliate" shall mean any entity (x) that directly owns more than fifty, percent (50%) of the voting shares, partnership interests or other controlling interests in Tenant, or (y) in which Tenant owns such controlling interests, or (z) with which Tenant is in common control by virtue of the ownership of such controlling interests by another person or entity.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such subletting or assignment (whether or not requiring Landlord's consent) shall not in any way relieve or release Tenant from liability for the payment and performance of all obligations under this Lease (including, if applicable, obligations relating to any extension of the Term), and Tenant shall remain primarily liable to Landlord for all such obligations without release or limitation by reason of any action or inaction by Landlord (including without limitation any failure to take any action in the enforcement of this Lease against the assignee or subtenant, any release or inaction with respect to any security or collateral, including without limitation any failure to perfect any interest therein, any forbearance, any failure to provide any notice to Tenant, or any modification or amendment to this Lease). Furthermore, no assignment will be valid unless and until the assignee has executed and delivered to Landlord an assumption of liability agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, including an assumption by the assignee of all of the obligations of Tenant and the assignee's ratification of and agreement to be bound by all the provisions of this Lease; and no subletting will be valid unless Tenant and the subtenant have executed and delivered to Landlord a sublease agreement pursuant to which such subtenant agrees that the sublease shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease.
(e) In the case of a sublease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent hereunder, fifty percent (50%) of the profits of all subrents or other sums or economic consideration received by Tenant (after deducting Tenant's reasonable costs of reletting), whether denominated as rentals or otherwise, in excess of the monthly sums which Tenant is required to pay under this Lease. In the case of an assignment, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent hereunder, one hundred percent (100%) of all sums or economic consideration received by Tenant for, and relating solely to, the assignment (after deducting Tenants reasonable costs in connection with the assignment), whether denominated as rentals or otherwise.
(f) When Tenant requests Landlord's consent to an assignment or sublease, it shall notify Landlord in writing of:
(i) the name and address of the proposed assignee or subtenant;
(ii) the nature and character of the business of the proposed assignee or subtenant;
(iii) such financial information as Landlord may reasonably request including without limitation financial statements of the proposed assignee or subtenant;
(iv) the rental rate and material monetary terms, such as rent concessions, work, or work allowance, at which Tenant intends to sublet any of the Demised Premises or assign this Lease, the proposed commencement date of the sublease or assignment and, in the case of a sublease, the portion of the Demised Premises sought to be sublet and the length of the sublease;
(v) a copy of the proposed sublease or assignment documentation; and
(vi) any and all other information and documents reasonably requested by Landlord in order to assist Landlord with its consideration of Tenant's request hereunder.
(g) No subletting to, occupancy by or collection of rent from a subtenant or assignee shall be deemed to be the approval by Landlord of the subtenant or occupant as tenant under this Lease unless otherwise consented to by Landlord. The consent by Landlord to an assignment or subletting where such Landlord consent is required shall not in any respect be construed to relieve Tenant from obtaining the express consent in writing of Landlord to any further assignment or subletting.
(h) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, promptly upon demand, all reasonable out- of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by Landlord directly in connection with any assignment of this Lease or sublease of all or any part of the Demised Premises.

13. FIRE OR CASUALTY. In the event that the whole or a substantial part of the Building or the Demised Premises is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, then, within forty-five (45) days after the date upon which Landlord receives notice from Tenant of such fire or other casualty, Landlord shall provide written notice to Tenant as to whether Landlord intends to repair or rebuild the Building and the estimated time period for the completion of such repairs. In the event that Landlord's notice provides that the repairs to the Demised Premises are estimated to require more than one hundred eighty (180) days to complete or that Landlord elects not to repair such damage, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by providing written notice thereof to Landlord within thirty days (30) after receipt of Landlord's notice. In the event that Landlord elects to repair or rebuild (and Tenant does not have the right to, or has elected not to, terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing sentence), Landlord shall thereupon cause the damage (excepting, however, Tenant's furniture, fixtures, equipment and other personal property in, and all alterations and improvements performed by Tenant to the Demised Premises, which shall be Tenant's responsibility to restore) to be repaired with reasonable speed, subject to delays which may arise by reason of adjustment of loss under insurance policies and for delays beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, it being further understood that in such case this Lease shall remain in effect regardless of whether the actual time for completion of restoration shall differ from the initial estimate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the restoration of the Demised Premises is not completed within two hundred ten (210) days from the earlier of (i) the date that Tenant notifies Landlord that is has elected not to terminate this Lease, or (ii) thirty (30) days after Landlord's notice to Tenant estimating the time period for the completion of restoration, then Tenant shall have the additional right to terminate this Lease upon written notice to Landlord. In the event the damage shall be so extensive that Landlord shall decide not to repair or rebuild, or if any mortgagee, having the right to do so, shall direct that the insurance proceeds are to be applied to reduce the mortgage debt rather than to the repair of such damage, this Lease shall, at the option of Landlord, be terminated effective as of the date of casualty. To the extent and for the time that the Demised Premises are rendered untenantable on account of fire or other casualty, the Rent shall be abated by the proportion of the Demised Premises rendered untenantable.
14. EMINENT DOMAIN. If the whole or a substantial part of the Building is taken or condemned for a public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain by any competent authority or sold in lieu of such taking or condemnation, such that in the opinion of Landlord the Building is no longer economically operable without substantial alteration or reconstruction, this Lease shall automatically terminate on the date of such taking "Taking Date" and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease. In such event, Tenant shall promptly be reimbursed for any Rent previously paid by Tenant and attributable to the period after the Taking Date. Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord and no claim or right to any portion of any amount that may be awarded as damages or paid as a result of any taking, condemnation or purchase in lieu thereof; all rights of Tenant thereto are hereby assigned by Tenant to Landlord. If any part of the Demised Premises is so taken or condemned and this Lease is not terminated in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section, this Lease shall automatically terminate as to the portion of the Demised Premises so taken or condemned as of the Taking Date, and this Lease shall continue in full force as to the remainder of the Demised Premises, with Rent abating as to the portion of the Demised Premises so taken or condemned; provided, however, that if the remaining portion of the Demised Premises is no longer suitable for the Permitted Use (in Tenant's reasonable discretion), then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by providing written notice thereof to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the Taking Date. Tenant shall have the right, however, to make a separate claim to the condemning authority to recover for Tenant's moving and relocation expenses, business interruption or taking of Tenant's personal property (not including Tenant's leasehold interest) or improvements or fixtures installed at Tenant's expense; provided, in no event may Tenant's recovery reduce the amount which may be recovered by Landlord.
12
15. INSOLVENCY. Each of the following shall constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant: (a) an assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, (b) the institution by or against Tenant of any proceedings for bankruptcy or reorganization under any state or federal law (unless, in the case of involuntary proceedings, the same shall be dismissed within sixty (60) days after institution), or (c) any execution issued against Tenant which is not stayed or discharged within thirty (30) days after issuance of any execution sale of the assets of Tenant. In the event of such a breach, Landlord shall have, without need of further notice, the rights enumerated in Section 17 herein.
16. DEFAULT.
(a) If (1) Tenant shall fail to pay Rent or any other sum payable to Landlord hereunder when due and such failure continues for more than ten (10) days after written notice from Landlord (provided, however, that Landlord shall not be required to provide written notice and an opportunity to cure for such failure to pay Rent or any other sum payable to Landlord hereunder more than one (1) time in each calendar year, it being understood that any subsequent failure after the first notice and cure period in any calendar shall be a "Default" hereunder) or (2) any of the events specified in Section 16 occur; or (3) Tenant sublets the Demised Premises or assigns this Lease in violation of the provisions of Section 13 hereof; or (4) Tenant fails to maintain the insurance required pursuant to Section 19 hereof; or (5) Tenant fails to perform or observe any of the other covenants, terms or conditions contained in this Lease and such failure continues for more than thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord (or such longer period as is reasonably required to correct any such default, provided Tenant promptly commences and diligently continues to effectuate a cure, but in any event within ninety (90) days after written notice thereof by Landlord); then and in any of said cases; a "Default" by Tenant shall be deemed to have occurred and Landlord, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it by law or equity or by any other provisions hereof, may at any time thereafter:
(i) declare to be immediately due and payable a sum equal to the Accelerated Rent Component (as hereinafter defined), for which Tenant shall remain liable to Landlord as hereinafter provided; terminate this Lease upon written notice to Tenant and, on the date specified in said notice, this Lease and the term shall be demised and all rights of Tenant hereunder shall expire and terminate and Tenant shall thereupon quit and surrender possession of the Demised Premises to Landlord in the condition elsewhere herein required, provided Tenant shall remain liable to Landlord as hereinafter provided; and/or
(ii) enter upon and repossess the Demised Premises, by force, summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and dispossess Tenant and remove Tenant and all other persons and property from the Demised Premises, without being liable to Tenant for prosecution or damages resulting from such repossession, and Tenant shall remain liable to Landlord as hereinafter provided.
13
Notwithstanding the foregoing Subsection 17(a)(3) above, should Tenant vacate or abandon the Demised Premises during the term hereof or remove or manifest an intention to remove any of Tenant's goods or property therefrom other than in the ordinary and usual course of Tenant's business (the "Vacation Event"), so long as Tenant continues to pay all Rent due hereunder, such Vacation Event shall not be considered a default hereunder. In addition to Tenant's obligation to continue to pay all Rent in a Vacation Event, Tenant shall be obligated to pay any increase in insurance that the Landlord shall incur due to Tenant's Vacation Event.
(b) For purposes herein, the Accelerated Rent Component shall mean the aggregate of:
(i) all Rent and other charges, payments, costs and expenses due from Tenant to Landlord and in arrears at the time of the election of Landlord to recover the Accelerated Rent Component;
(ii) the Annual Base Rent reserved for the then entire unexpired balance of the Term plus all other charges, payments, costs and expenses herein agreed to be paid by Tenant through the end of the Term which shall be capable of precise determination at the time of Landlord's election to recover the Accelerated Rent Component, discounted to then present value at the Prime Rate (as defined in Section 7(b)(2)); and
(iii) Landlord's good faith estimate of all charges, payments, costs and expenses herein agreed to be paid by Tenant through the end of the Term which shall not be capable of precise determination as aforesaid, discounted to then present value at the Prime Rate (and for such purposes no estimate of any component of the Additional Rent to accrue pursuant to the provisions of Section 7 and Section 8 hereof shall be less than the amount which would be due if each such component continued at the average monthly rate or amount in effect during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the default).
(c) In the event that Landlord shall, after Default or breach by Tenant, recover the Accelerated Rent Component and/or retake possession of the Demised Premises, then Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to relet the Demised Premises; provided, however, in no event shall Landlord be required to (i) lease the Demised Premises instead of other available space in the Building, (ii) accept a below-market rental rate for the Demised Premises, (iii) accept any tenant whose creditworthiness is unsatisfactory to Landlord, in its sole discretion, or (iv) accept any tenant whose business is not compatible with the other tenants of the Building, as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion. For the purpose of such reletting, Landlord may decorate or make reasonable repairs, changes, alterations or additions to the Demised Premises to the extent reasonably deemed desirable or convenient by Landlord. All costs of reletting, including, without limitation, the cost of such repairs, changes, alterations and additions, brokerage commissions and legal fees shall be charged to and be payable by Tenant as Additional Rent hereunder. Any sums collected by Landlord from any new tenant shall be credited against the balance of the Annual Base Rent and Additional Rent due hereunder as aforesaid.
14
(d) Tenant shall, through the expiration of the term of this Lease (or what would have been the expiration of the Term but for such default or breach) remain liable to Landlord as follows:
(i) in the event of termination of this Lease resulting from Tenant's default or breach, Tenant shall remain liable to Landlord for damages equal to the rent and other charges payable under this Lease by Tenant as if this Lease were still in effect, less the net proceeds of any reletting after deducting all costs incident thereto (including without limitation all repossession costs, brokerage and management commissions, operating and legal expenses and fees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for reletting) and to the extent such damages shall not have been recovered by Landlord by virtue of payment by Tenant of the Accelerated Rent Component (but without prejudice to the right of Landlord to demand and receive the Accelerated Rent Component), such damages shall be payable to Landlord, at Landlord's option, monthly upon presentation to Tenant of a bill for the amount due or at such other intervals or times as Landlord shall determine.
(ii) in the event and so long as this Lease shall not have been terminated after default or breach by Tenant, the Rent and all other charges payable under this Lease shall be reduced by the net proceeds of any reletting by Landlord (after deducting all costs incident thereto as above set forth) and by any portion of the Accelerated Rent Component paid by Tenant to Landlord (but without prejudice to the right of Landlord to demand and receive the Accelerated Rent Component), and any amount due to Landlord shall be payable monthly, at Landlord's option, upon presentation to Tenant of a bill for the amount due, or at such other intervals or times as Landlord shall determine.
(e) If Landlord shall, after default or breach by Tenant, recover the Accelerated Rent Component from Tenant and it shall be determined at the expiration of the Term of this Lease (taken without regard to early termination for default) that a credit is due Tenant because the net proceeds of reletting, as aforesaid, plus the amounts paid to Landlord by Tenant exceed the aggregate of Rent and other charges accrued in favor of Landlord through the end of the Term, Landlord shall refund such excess to Tenant (not to exceed an amount greater than the Rent and Additional Rent paid by Tenant for any particular period of time), without interest, promptly after such determination.
(f) Nothing contained in this Lease shall limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to seek damages incident to a termination of or default under this Lease, in any bankruptcy, reorganization or other court proceedings, the maximum amount allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect when such damages are to be proved.
(g) Landlord shall in no event be responsible or liable for any failure to relet the Demised Premises or any part thereof, or for any failure to collect any Rent due upon a reletting.
(h) Tenant shall pay upon demand all of Landlord's costs, charges and expenses, including the fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel, agents and others retained by Landlord, reasonably incurred in enforcing Tenant's obligations hereunder or incurred by Landlord in any litigation, negotiation or transaction in which Tenant causes Landlord, without Landlord's fault, to become involved or concerned.
15
(i) AFTER A DEFAULT OR THE EXPIRATION OF THE TERM, FOR THE PURPOSE OF OBTAINING POSSESSION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES, TENANT HEREBY AUTHORIZES AND EMPOWERS THE PROTHONOTARY OR ANY ATTORNEY OF ANY COURT OF RECORD IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA OR ELSEWHERE, TO APPEAR FOR AND CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST TENANT FOR POSSESSION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES, AND AGAINST ALL PERSONS CLAIMING UNDER OR THROUGH TENANT, IN FAVOR OF LANDLORD, FOR RECOVERY BY LANDLORD OF POSSESSION THEREOF, FOR WHICH THIS AGREEMENT OR A COPY HEREOF VERIFIED BY AFFIDAVIT, SHALL BE A SUFFICIENT WARRANT; AND THEREUPON A WRIT OF POSSESSION MAY IMMEDIATELY ISSUE FOR POSSESSION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES, WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WRIT OR PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER AND WITHOUT ANY STAY OF EXECUTION. IF FOR ANY REASON AFTER SUCH ACTION HAS BEEN COMMENCED THE SAME SHALL BE TERMINATED AND THE POSSESSION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES REMAINS IN OR IS RESTORED TO TENANT, LANDLORD SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT UPON ANY SUBSEQUENT DEFAULT TO CONFESS JUDGMENT IN ONE OR MORE FURTHER ACTIONS IN THE MANNER AND FORM SET FORTH ABOVE TO RECOVER POSSESSION OF SAID DEMISED PREMISES FOR SUCH SUBSEQUENT DEFAULT. TENANT WAIVES ALL ERRORS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT. NO SUCH TERMINATION OF THIS LEASE, NOR TAKING, NOR RECOVERING POSSESSION OF THE DEMISED PREMISES SHALL DEPRIVE LANDLORD OF ANY REMEDIES OR ACTION AGAINST TENANT FOR RENT OR FOR DAMAGES DUE OR TO BECOME DUE FOR THE BREACH OF ANY CONDITION OR COVENANT HEREIN CONTAINED, NOR SHALL THE BRINGING OF ANY SUCH ACTION FOR RENT, OR BREACH OF COVENANT OR CONDITION NOR THE RESORT TO ANY OTHER REMEDY HEREIN PROVIDED FOR THE RECOVERY OF RENT OR DAMAGES FOR SUCH BREACH BE CONSTRUED AS A WAIVER OF THE RIGHT TO INSIST UPON THE FORFEITURE AND TO OBTAIN POSSESSION IN THE MANNER HEREIN PROVIDED.
(j) Intentionally Deleted.
(k) Intentionally Deleted.
(1) If Rent or any other sum due from Tenant to Landlord shall be overdue for more than ten (10) days, Tenant shall pay a late fee equal to 5 percent (5%) per annum of such overdue amounts, without interest, until paid.
16
(m) All remedies available to Landlord hereunder and at law and in equity shall be cumulative and concurrent. No termination of this Lease nor taking or recovering possession of the Demised Premises shall deprive Landlord of any remedies or actions against Tenant for Rent, for charges or for damages for the breach of any covenant, agreement or condition herein contained, nor shall the bringing of any such action for Rent, charges or breach of covenant, agreement or condition, nor the resort to any other remedy or right for the recovery of Rent, charges or damages for such breach be construed as a waiver or release of the right to insist upon the forfeiture and to obtain possession. No reentering or taking possession of the Demised Premises, or making of repairs, alterations or improvements thereto, or reletting thereof, shall be construed as an election on the part of Landlord to terminate this Lease unless written notice of such election to terminate is given by Landlord to Tenant.
(n) No waiver of any provision of this Lease shall be implied by any failure of Landlord to enforce any remedy allowed for the violation of such provision, even if such violation is continued or repeated, and no express waiver shall affect any provision other than the one(s) specified in such waiver and only for the time and in the manner specifically stated. No receipt of monies by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease shall in any way alter the length of the Term or of Tenant's right of possession hereunder or after the giving of any notice shall reinstate, continue or extend the Term or affect any notice given to Tenant prior to the receipt of such moneys, it being agreed that after the service of notice or the commencement of a suit or after final judgment for possession of the Demised Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any Rent due, and the payment of said Rent shall not waive or affect said notice, suit or judgment. The receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Annual Base Rent or any Additional Rent due shall not be construed to be other than a payment for the Annual Base Rent or Additional Rent then due, and any statement on Tenant's check or any letter accompanying Tenant's check to the contrary shall not be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of the Annual Base Rent or Additional Rent due or to pursue any other remedies provided in this Lease or otherwise.
17. RIGHT TO CURE. Landlord may (but shall not be obligated) upon not less than five (5) prior days notice to Tenant (except that no notice need be given in the event of an emergency) cure any default resulting from Tenant's act or omission. Any costs incurred by Landlord in connection with curing such default or defaults (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees) shall be deemed Additional Rent payable on demand.
18. INSURANCE.
(a)Tenant shall at all times during the Term, including any renewal or extension thereof, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, maintain in full force and effect with respect to the Demised Premises and Tenant's use thereof from responsible insurance companies with an A.M.

Should the Boiler & Machinery Insurance be placed with a carrier other than the Property insurer, then both the Property and Boiler & Machinery Insurance shall be endorsed with a Joint Loss Agreement Endorsement; both Property and Boiler insurers shall grant the right to waive subrogation in writing prior to loss.
(iii) Worker's compensation insurance with statutory limits covering all of Tenant's employees working at the Demised Premises including employer's liability limits of $1,000,000; and

19. LIABILITY.
(a) Each of the parties hereto hereby releases the other, to the extent of the releasing party's insurance coverage, from any and all liability for any loss or damage covered by such insurance which may be inflicted upon the property of such party even if such loss or damage shall be brought about by the fault or negligence of the other party, its agents or employees; provided, however, that this release shall be effective only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such time as the appropriate policy of insurance shall contain a clause to the effect that this release shall not affect the policy or the right of the insured to recover thereunder. If any policy does not permit such a waiver, and if the party to benefit therefrom requests that such a waiver be obtained, the other party agrees to obtain an endorsement to its insurance policies permitting such waiver of subrogation if it is available; provided, at if an additional premium is charged for such waiver, the party benefiting therefrom agrees to timeley pay the amount of such additional premium.
(b) Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord, its agents and employees shall not be liable to Tenant, and Tenant hereby releases Landlord, its agents and employees, for any loss of life, personal injury or damage to property in the Demised Premises from any cause whatsoever unless such loss, injury or damage is the result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents or employees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, Landlord, its agents and employees shall in no event be liable to Tenant, and Tenant hereby releases Landlord, its agents and employees, for any loss or damage to property, whether or not the result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents or employees, to the extent that Tenant would be covered by insurance that Tenant is required to carry hereunder or is covered by insurance regardless of the insurance requirements set forth herein, or to the extent of insurance customarily maintained by similarly situated tenants for the risk in question (even if Tenant failed to maintain such insurance). Tenant shall and hereby does indemnify and hold Landlord, its agents and employees harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liability and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) in connection with any loss of life, personal injury or damage to property in or about the Demised Premises or arising out of the use or occupancy of the Demised Premises by Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees or contractors, or occasioned in whole or in part by Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees or contractors, unless such loss, injury or damage was caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents or employees.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord explicitly reserves, without limitation, the following rights, each of which Landlord may exercise without liability to Tenant, and the exercise of any such rights shall not be deemed to constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenant's use or possession of the Demised Premises and shall not give rise to any claim for setoff or abatement of Rent or any other claim or otherwise affect any of Tenant's obligations hereunder:
