management of Landlord. Except as may otherwise be expressly provided in this Lease, the lease of the
Premises does not include the right to use the roof, mechanical rooms, electrical closets, janitorial
closets, telephone rooms,parking areas or other non-common or non-public areas of the Building.

required to pay the difference between the Base Rent of the Premises and the higher Base Rent of the

Base Rent less than the Base Rent then being charged for the Premises at that time, Tenant's Base Rent
shall be reduced to the Base Rent then being charged for the Substitute Space. The Base Rent for the

Rent Commencement Date attached to this Lease as Exhibit D and if Tenant fails to execute such
certificate with five (5) business days of Landlord's tender thereof to Tenant (or else timely provide
Landlord with its written objection thereto), then in such event the date set forth in the certificate
tendered by Landlord to Tenant shall conclusively be deemed correct, and shall establish the Rent
Commencement Date hereunder.
3.2 If there is a tenant occupying the Premises prior to Tenant accepting possession, or any
personalty located in the Premises, Tenant acknowledges and understands that Landlord does not warrant
that any items in the Premises on the date of Tenant's inspection(s) prior to the execution of the Lease

except those fixtures specifically listed in the Lease.

Anticipated Delivery Date, then Landlord agrees to deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant as soon
as practicable thereafter, and the Minimum Base Rent shall be abated proportionately and Tenant will be

failure of Landlord to deliver possession of the Premises and Tenant hereby waives and releases Landlord
and Landlord shall not have any liability whatsoever, and this Lease shall not be rendered void or
voidable, as a result thereof.

Rent Commencement Date, and each successive twelve(12)month period thereafter; provided,however,
that if the Rent Commencement Date is not the first day of a month, then the second Lease Year shall

monthly installments in advance on the first day of each month during a Lease Year. On the first day of
the second and each succeeding Lease Year the Base Rent in effect shall be increased by an amount equal
to the product of the Rent Annual Escalation Percentage (as defined in Section 1.6), multiplied by the
Base Rent payable during the immediately preceding Lease Year, calculated on a per square foot basis
and without regard to any rental abatement, allowance or other concession granted by Landlord during
such Lease Year.

Commencement Date.

the United States, without setoff, deduction or demand, at the Landlord Notice Address, or to such other
party or such other address as Landlord may designate in writing. Landlord's acceptance of rent after it
shall have become due and payable shall not excuse a delay upon such or any subsequent occasion or
constitute a waiver of any of Landlord's rights hereunder. If any sum payable by Tenant under this Lease
is paid by check which is returned due to insufficient funds, stop payment order, or otherwise, then: (a)
such event shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder as of the date when such sum was due; and (b)

Premises is or shall be based in whole or in part on the net income or profits derived by any person or
entity from the Building or the Premises. Tenant further agrees that it will not enter into any sublease,
license, concession or other agreement for any use or occupancy of the Premises which provides for a
rental or other payment for such use or occupancy based in whole or in part on the net income or profits
derived by any person or entity from the Premises so leased, used or occupied. Nothing in the foregoing
sentence, however, shall be construed as permitting or constituting Landlord's approval of any sublease,
license, concession, or other use or occupancy agreement not otherwise approved by Landlord in
accordance with the provisions of Article VII.

(f J Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses shall be payable by Tenant within ten (10) days
after a reasonably detailed statement of actual expenses is presented to Tenant by Landlord. At Landlord's
option, however, Landlord may, from time to time, estimate what Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses
will be, and the same shall be payable by Tenant monthly during each year of the Lease Term, on the
same day as the Rent is due hereunder. Landlord shall have the right to adjust the contribution set forth
herein, based on its budget, which adjustments shall be limited to no more than two (2) times per Lease
Year. In the event that Tenant pays Landlord's estimate of Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses,
Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to deliver to Tenant within one hundred eighty (180) days after
the expiration of each year a reasonably detailed statement (the "Statement") showing Tenant's Share of
the actual Operating Expenses incurred during such year. Landlord's failure to deliver the Statement to
Tenant within said period shall not constitute Landlord's waiver of its right to collect said amounts or
otherwise prejudice Landlord's rights hereunder. If Tenant's payments under this section during said year
exceed Tenant's Share as indicated on the Statement, Tenant shall be entitled to credit the amount of such
overpayment against Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses next falling due. If Tenant's payments under
this section during said year were less than Tenant's Share as indicated on the Statement,Tenant shall pay
to Landlord the amount of the deficiency within thirty (30) days after delivery by Landlord to Tenant of
the Statement. Landlord and Tenant shall forthwith adjust between them by cash payment any balance
determined to exist with respect to that portion of the last year of the Lease Term for which Tenant is
Page 7 of 40
responsible for Operating Expenses, notwithstanding that the Lease Term may have terminated before the
end of such year; and this provision shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.
(g) If Tenant disputes the amount set forth in the Statement, Tenant shall have the right, at
Tenant's sole expense, not later than sixty (60) days following receipt of such Statement, to cause
Landlord's books and records with respect to the calendar year which is the subject of the Statement to be
audited by a certified public accountant mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant, except that any of
the City of Miami Beach's internal auditors shall be deemed acceptable to Landlord. The audit shall take
place at the offices of Landlord's managing agent where its books and records are located at a mutually
convenient time during Landlord's regular business hours. Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses shall be
appropriately adjusted based upon the results of such audit, and the results of such audit shall be final and
binding upon Landlord and Tenant. Tenant shall have no right to conduct an audit or to give Landlord
notice that it desires to conduct an audit at any time Tenant is in default under the Lease. The accountant
conducting the audit shall be compensated on an hourly basis and shall not be compensated based upon a
percentage of overcharges it discovers. No subtenant shall have any right to conduct an audit, and no
assignee shall conduct an audit for any period during which such assignee was not in possession of the
Premises. Tenant's right to undertake an audit with respect to any calendar year shall expire sixty (60)
days after Tenant's receipt of the Statement for such calendar year, and such Statement shall be final and
binding upon Tenant and shall, as between the parties, be conclusively deemed correct, at the end of such
sixty(60) day period, unless prior thereto Tenant shall have given Landlord written notice of its intention
to audit Operating Expenses for the calendar year which is the subject of the Statement. If Tenant gives
Landlord notice of its intention to audit Operating Expenses, it must commence such audit within sixty
(60) days after such notice is delivered to Landlord, and the audit must be completed within one hundred
twenty (120) days after such notice is delivered to Landlord. If Tenant does not commence and complete
the audit within such periods, the Statement which Tenant elected to audit shall be deemed final and
binding upon Tenant and shall,as between the parties,be conclusively deemed correct.
5.2. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant is a municipal corporation organized under the State of
Florida and, as such, is exempt from payment of sales tax in connection with any payments of Rent under
this Lease. Provided that Tenant assigns this Lease to a non-governmental entity, Tenant acknowledges
that Sales Tax on Base Rent shall be paid to Landlord with the monthly payment of Base Rent and all
applicable sales taxes imposed directly upon this Lease or the Additional Rent as herein defined.
5.3. As used herein, the term "Real Property Taxes" shall include any form of ad valorem and
non ad valorem real estate taxes or assessments, business improvement district assessments, general,
special, ordinary or extraordinary, improvement bond or bonds imposed on the Building or the Land or
any portion thereof by any authority having the direct or indirect power to tax, including any city, county,
state or federal government, or any school, agricultural, sanitary, fire, street, drainage or other
improvement district thereof, as against any legal or equitable interest of Landlord in the Building or in
any portion thereof. Real Property Taxes shall not include income, inheritance and gift taxes.
5.4. Reassessments - From time to time Landlord may challenge the assessed value of the
Building as determined by applicable taxing authorities and/or Landlord may attempt to cause the Real
Property Taxes to be reduced on other grounds. If Landlord is successful in causing the Real Property
Taxes to be reduced or in obtaining a refund, rebate, credit or similar benefit (hereinafter collectively
referred to as a "reduction"), Landlord shall equitably credit the reduction(s) to Real Property Taxes for
the calendar year to which a reduction applies and to recalculate the Real Property Taxes owed by Tenant.
All costs incurred by Landlord in seeking to obtain the Real Property Tax reduction, whether Landlord is
successful or not, shall be considered an Operating Expense.
5.5. Notwithstanding the terms of Article V and Article 1.8 of the Lease to the contrary, and
provided that Tenant has not been in default hereunder, Landlord agrees that the Operating Expenses,
excluding those expenses which are beyond Landlord's control, such as utilities, trash removal, security
costs, real estate taxes, insurance, and non-reimbursed hurricane, storm or other natural disaster related
expenses, shall increase by no more than five percent (5%) annually (the "Cap") for the first five (5)
years of the Lease. At the expiration of the Initial Term of the Lease, Tenant's Share of Operating
Expenses for the immediately upcoming First Renewal Period (i.e., the sixth (6th) Lease Year) will be
payable by Tenant based on the actual Operating Expenses for such upcoming Lease Year, regardless of
how the above-described Cap would have otherwise limited such amounts payable by Tenant; provided,
however, that the Cap will then apply again for each subsequent Lease Year for the remainder of each
such three (3) year period (Lease Years 7 and 8). At the expiration of the First Renewal Period, Tenant's
Share of Shopping Center Expenses for the immediately upcoming Second Renewal Period(i.e.,the ninth
(9th) Lease Year) will be payable by Tenant based on the actual Shopping Center Expenses for such
upcoming Lease Year, regardless of how the above-described Cap would have otherwise limited such
amounts payable by Tenant; provided, however, that the Cap will then apply again for each subsequent
Lease Year for the remainder of each such three(3)year period(i.e. Lease Years 10 and 11).

assignee or subtenant of Tenant. For any period during which Tenant is in default hereunder, Tenant
hereby authorizes each such assignee or subtenant to pay said rent directly to Landlord upon receipt of
notice from Landlord specifying same. Landlord's collection of such rent shall not be construed as an
acceptance of such assignee or subtenant as a tenant. Tenant shall not mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or
encumber (collectively "Mortgage") this Lease without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent
maybe granted or withheld in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion. Tenant shall pay to Landlord an

assignment of this Lease subject to the provisions of this Article. If Tenant is a corporation, then any
event (whether voluntary, concurrent or related) resulting in a dissolution, merger, consolidation or other
reorganization of Tenant, or the sale or transfer or relinquishment of the interest of shareholders who, as
of the date of this Lease, own a controlling interest of the capital stock of Tenant, or a conversion into any
other type of entity, shall be deemed a voluntary assignment of this Lease subject to the provisions of this
Article; provided, however, that the foregoing portion of this sentence shall not apply to corporations
whose stock is traded through a national or regional exchange or over-the-counter market. If Tenant is a
limited liability company, then any dissolution of Tenant or a withdrawal or change, whether voluntary,
involuntary or by operation of law, of members owning a controlling interest in Tenant or a conversion
into any other type of entity, shall be deemed a voluntary assignment of this Lease. This Section 7.2 shall
I only be applicable if Tenant assigns this Lease to a non-governmental entity.

respect to the Proposed Sublet Space by sending Tenant written notice of such termination within thirty
(30) days after Landlord's receipt of Tenant's Request Notice. If the Proposed Sublet Space does not

Proposed Sublet Space, then (a) Tenant shall tender the Proposed Sublet Space to Landlord on the
Proposed Sublease Commencement Date and such space shall thereafter be deleted from the Premises,
and (b) as to that portion of the Premises which is not part of the Proposed Sublet Space, this Lease shall

balance of the Premises shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord as additional rent hereunder within ten (10)
days after demand therefor from Landlord. If the Proposed Sublet Space constitutes the entire Premises
and Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, then Tenant shall tender the Proposed Sublet Space to
Landlord, and this Lease shall terminate,on the Proposed Sublease Commencement Date.
7.5 If any sublease or assignment (whether by operation of law or otherwise, including an

lump sum payment, payment for the sale, transfer or lease of Tenant's fixtures, leasehold improvements,
furniture and other personal property, or any other form (and if the subleased or assigned space does not
constitute the entire Premises, the existence of such excess shall be determined on a pro-rata basis),
Tenant shall pay to Landlord any such excess or other premium applicable to the sublease or assignment,
which amount shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord as additional rent upon such terms as shall he specified
by Landlord and in no event later than ten(10) days after any receipt thereof by Tenant. If an assignment
is deemed to have occurred pursuant to Section 7.2, then for purposes of this Section the rent payable by
the assignee shall be deemed to be increased (but not reduced) to the then fair market rent for the
Premises as reasonably determined by Landlord. Acceptance by Landlord of any payments due under this
Section shall not be deemed to constitute approval by Landlord of any sublease or assignment, nor shall
such acceptance waive any rights of Landlord hereunder. Landlord shall have the right to inspect and
audit Tenant's books and records relating to any sublease or assignment.
7.6 All restrictions and obligations imposed pursuant to this Lease on Tenant shall be deemed to
extend to any subtenant, assignee, licensee, concessionaire or other occupant or transferee, and Tenant

voluntary surrender or otherwise, at Landlord's option the subtenant shall be bound to Landlord for the
balance of the term of such sublease and shall attorn to and recognize Landlord as its landlord under the
then executory terms of such sublease.
7.7 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, deny any request by Tenant to sublease all or any portion of the Premises or assign this Lease

complete transfer of the use of the Premises from one City of Miami Beach Department to

endorsements and declarations) to Landlord on or before the Rent Commencement Date and thereafter at
least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the policy then in effect. Such policy shall expressly
contain a contractual endorsement to provide coverage for such assignee's or sublessee's insurable
indemnification obligations in this Lease. Such assignee or sublessee shall furnish Landlord with a
certificate of insurance or other acceptable evidence that such insurance is in force. In the event assignee
or sublessee receives a notice of cancellation from its insurer(s), Landlord and any mortgagee or loss
payee shall be notified of such pending cancellation within five(5) days of receipt of such insurer notice.

ARTICLE XIV
SERVICES AND UTILITIES
14.1 Subject to Tenant's obligations specified in this Lease: (a) Landlord will furnish to the
Premises from and after the Rent Commencement Date: air-conditioning during the seasons it is required
in Landlord's reasonable judgment; and (b) Landlord will provide janitorial service on Monday through
Friday (or, at Landlord's option, Sunday through Thursday) only (excluding legal public holidays), (c)
electricity sufficient for lighting purposes and normal office use only, (d) water sufficient for normal
office use only, (e) elevator service (with at least one (1) elevator in operation at all times, except in the
event of an emergency), and (f) exterior window-cleaning service. If Tenant requires air-conditioning or
heat beyond the Building Hours, then Landlord will furnish the same, provided Tenant gives Landlord
sufficient advance notice of such requirement. Tenant shall pay for such extra service in accordance with
Landlord's then-current schedule, currently estimated at $55.00 per hour, which shall reflect Landlord's
cost of providing such service without a profit increment ("Additional A/C and Heating Costs").
Notwithstanding anything above to the contrary, Tenant shall have access to the Building twenty-four
(24)hours per day each day of the year(except in the event of an emergency).
14.2 Landlord may install checkmeters to electrical circuits serving the Premises to verify that
Tenant is not consuming electricity disproportionate to the size of the Premises for a typical office user. If
such checkmeters indicate that Tenant's electricity consumption is excessive, then Landlord may install at
Tenant's expense submeters to ascertain Tenant's actual electricity consumption, and Tenant shall
thereafter pay for such consumption at the then-current price per kilowatt hour charged Landlord by the
utility. Tenant's electricity consumption shall be deemed excessive if the electricity consumption in the
Premises per square foot of rentable area (including electricity consumed in connection with outlets and
lighting use) during any billing period exceeds the average electricity consumption per square foot of
rentable area during the same period for typical, similarly situated tenants in the Building, as reasonably
calculated by Landlord.
14.3 Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of any excess water, sewer and chiller usage in
the Premises. Excess usage shall mean the excess of the estimated usage in the Premises (per square foot
of rentable area)during any billing period over the average usage(per square foot of rentable area) during
the same period for the entire Building, as reasonably calculated by Landlord.
14. Landlord shall not be liable in any way for any damage or inconvenience caused by the
cessation or interruption of any heating, air-conditioning, electricity, water, sewer, or any other service
occasioned by breakdown, fire, accident, strikes, necessary maintenance, alterations or repairs, or other
causes beyond Landlord's control, and Tenant shall not be entitled to an abatement or reduction of rent by
reason thereof,nor shall the same be deemed a constructive eviction of Tenant.
ARTICLE XV

employees and agents from and against any and all Losses caused by the grossly negligent acts or
omissions or willful misconduct of Landlord, its employees or agents and any injury to or death of any
person or persons or any loss of or damage to any property, real or personal, in any manner arising
therefrom (collectively, "Losses") provided, however, the foregoing shall not apply to any Losses caused
by the negligence or willful acts or omissions of Tenant, its employees or agents. In case any action or
proceeding is brought against Tenant by reason of any Loss, Landlord covenants to defend Tenant, with
all the reasonable expenses of such defense paid by Landlord. These obligations shall survive the
expiration or early termination of this Lease.
15.3 In no event shall Landlord or Tenant be responsible for any consequential or punitive
damages in connection with this Lease or the Premises.
15.4 Landlord, its employees and agents shall not be liable to Tenant, any Invitee or any other
person or entity for any damage (including indirect and consequential damage), injury, loss or claim

misconduct(except as otherwise provided in this Section, and Landlord shall not be liable for indirect and
consequential damages in any event), including the following: repair to any portion of the Premises or the
Building; interruption in the use of the Premises or any equipment therein; any accident or damage
resulting from any use or operation (by Landlord, Tenant or any other person or entity) of elevators or
heating, cooling, electrical, sewerage or plumbing equipment or apparatus; termination of this Lease by
reason of damage to the Premises or the Building; any fire, robbery, theft, vandalism, mysterious
disappearance or any other casualty; actions of any other tenant of the Building or of any other person or

Premises or the Building from water, rain, ice or snow that may leak into, or flow from, any part of the
Premises or the Building, or from drains, pipes or plumbing fixtures in the Premises or the Building. If
any condition exists which may be the basis of a claim of constructive eviction, then Tenant shall give
Landlord written notice thereof and a reasonable opportunity to correct such condition, and in the interim
Tenant shall not claim that it has been constructively evicted or is entitled to a rent abatement. Any
property placed by Tenant or any Invitee in or about the Premises or the Building shall be at the sole risk
of Tenant, and Landlord shall not in any manner be held responsible therefore. Any person receiving an
article delivered for Tenant shall be acting as Tenant's agent for such purpose and not as Landlord's agent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, Landlord shall not be released from liability to
Tenant for any physical injury to any natural person caused by Landlord's willful misconduct to the extent
such injury is not covered by insurance(a) carried by Tenant or such person, or(b)required by this Lease
to be carried by Tenant; provided, however, that Landlord shall not under any circumstances be liable for
any consequential or indirect damages. Nothing in this this subsection 15.4, however, shall be deemed to
be a waiver of Landlord's expressed obligations under this Lease, including, without limitation,
Landlord's expressed maintenance and repair obligations under this Lease or Tenant's rights under this
Lease, nor shall the same,under any circumstances, be deemed to waive any grossly negligent acts or
omissions or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors.
15.5 No landlord hereunder shall be liable for any obligation or liability based on or arising out of
any event or condition occurring during the period that such landlord was not the owner of the Building or
a landlord's interest therein. Within five (5) days after request, Tenant shall attorn to such transferee and
execute,acknowledge and deliver any document submitted to Tenant confirming such attornment.
15.6 Tenant shall not have the right to set off or deduct any amount allegedly owed to Tenant
pursuant to any claim against Landlord from any rent or other sum payable to Landlord. Tenant's sole
remedy for recovering upon such claim shall be to institute an independent action against Landlord.
15.7 If Tenant or any Invitee is awarded a money judgment against Landlord, then recourse for
satisfaction of such judgment shall be limited to execution against Landlord's estate and interest in the
Building. No other asset of Landlord, any partner, director, member, officer or trustee of Landlord (each,
an "Officer") or any other person or entity shall be available to satisfy or be subject to such judgment, nor
shall any officer or other person or entity be held to have personal liability for satisfaction of any claim or
judgment against Landlord or any officer.
ARTICLE XVI
RULES
16.1 Tenant and Invitees shall at all times abide by and observe the rules specified in Exhibit C.
Tenant and Invitees shall also abide by and observe any other rule that Landlord may promulgate from
time to time for the operation and maintenance of the Building, provided that notice thereof is given and
such rule is not inconsistent with the provisions of this Lease. All rules shall be binding upon Tenant and
enforceable by Landlord as if they were contained herein. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be
construed as imposing upon Landlord any duty or obligation to enforce such rules, or the terms,
conditions or covenants contained in any other lease, as against any other tenant, and Landlord shall not
be liable to Tenant for the violation of such rules by any other tenant or its employees, agents, assignees,
subtenants, invitees or licensees.
ARTICLE XVII
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
17.1 If the Premises or the Building are totally or partially damaged or destroyed thereby
rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, then Landlord shall diligently repair
and restore the Premises and the Building to substantially the same condition they were in prior to such
damage or destruction; provided, however, that if in Landlord's judgment such repair and restoration
cannot be completed within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such damage or destruction (taking
into account the time needed for effecting a satisfactory settlement with any insurance company involved,
removal of debris, preparation of plans and issuance of all required governmental permits), then Landlord
shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving written notice of termination within sixty (60) days
Page 17 of 40
after the occurrence of such damage or destruction. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to this Article,
then rent shall be apportioned (based on the portion of the Premises which is usable after such damage or
destruction) and paid to the date of termination. If this Lease is not terminated as a result of such damage
or destruction, then until such repair and restoration of the Premises are substantially complete, Tenant
shall be required to pay Rent only for the portion of the Premises that is usable while such repair and
restoration are being made. In the event Landlord elects to complete repairs, but fails to deliver the
Premises to Tenant with substantially all repair/restoration work it is obligated to perform under this
Article completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such casualty, and Landlord's
receipt of applicable insurance proceeds and governmental permits pertaining thereto, Tenant shall have
the right, to be exercised by notice in writing to the Landlord within thirty (30) days after expiration of
such 180 day period, to elect to terminate this Lease,whereupon the Term shall terminate as of the date of
the termination notice and Rent shall be adjusted as of such date. After receipt of all insurance proceeds
(including proceeds of insurance maintained by Tenant), Landlord shall proceed with and bear the
expenses of such repair and restoration of the Premises and the Building; provided, however, that if such
damage or destruction was caused by the act or omission of Tenant or any Invitee,then Landlord shall not
be required to repair or restore any of the original tenant improvements in the Premises,any Alterations or
any other contents of the Premises (including Tenant's trade fixtures, decorations, furnishings, equipment
or personal property) which shall be the sole responsibility of the Tenant to repair and/or replace, and
Tenant shall promptly restore such tenant improvements, Alterations and other contents. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease if (1) insurance
proceeds are insufficient to pay the full cost of such repair and restoration, (2)the holder of any Mortgage
fails or refuses to make such insurance proceeds available for such repair and restoration, (3) zoning or
other applicable Laws or regulations do not permit such repair and restoration, or (4) the damage to the
Building exceeds twenty-five percent(25%)of the replacement value of the Building.
ARTICLE XVIII
CONDEMNATION
18.1 If one-third or more of the Premises, or the use or occupancy thereof, shall be taken or
condemned by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority for any public or quasi-public use or
purpose or sold under threat of such a taking or condemnation (collectively, "condemned"), then this
Lease shall terminate on the day prior to the date title thereto vests in such authority and Rent shall be
apportioned as of such date. If less than one-third of the Premises or occupancy thereof is condemned,
then-this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as to the part of the Premises not so condemned,
except that as of the date title vests in such authority Tenant shall not he required to pay Rent with respect
to the part of the Premises so condemned. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if twenty-five
percent (25%) or more of the Building is condemned, then whether or not any portion of the Premises is
condemned, Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease as of the date title vests in
such authority.
18.2 All awards, damages and other compensation paid on account of such condemnation shall
belong to Landlord, and Tenant assigns to Landlord all rights to such awards, damages and compensation.
Tenant shall not make any claim against Landlord or such authority for any portion of such award,
damages or compensation attributable to damage to the Premises, value of the unexpired portion of the
Lease Term, loss of profits or goodwill, leasehold improvements or severance damages. Nothing
contained herein, however, shall prevent Tenant from pursuing a separate claim against the authority for
relocation expenses and for the value of furnishings, equipment and trade fixtures installed in the
Premises at Tenant's expense and which Tenant is entitled pursuant to this Lease to remove at the
expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, provided that such claim shall in no way diminish the
award, damages or compensation payable to or recoverable by Landlord in connection with such
condemnation.
ARTICLE XIX
DEFAULT
19.1 Each of the following shall constitute an "Event of Default": (a) Tenant's failure to make
any payment of the Base Rent, Additional Rent or other sum within 5 days from written notice made by
Landlord; (b)Tenant's failure to perform or observe any covenant or condition of this Lease not otherwise
specifically described in this Section 19.1, and such failure continues for more than thirty (30) days after
receiving written notice of the same from Landlord; (c)an Event of insolvency as specified in Article XX;
(d)Tenant's dissolution or liquidation; (e) any Environmental Default as specified in Section 6.3 and such
failure continues for more than thirty (30) days after receiving written notice of the same from Landlord;
(f)Intentionally Deleted; or(g) a breach of any representation or warranty contained herein.
19.2 If there shall be an Event of Default (even if prior to the Rent Commencement Date), then
the provisions of this Section shall apply. Landlord shall have the right, at its sole option,to terminate this
Lease. In addition, with or without terminating this Lease, Landlord may re-enter,terminate Tenant's right
of possession and take possession of the Premises. If necessary, Landlord may proceed to recover
Page 18 of 40
possession of the Premises under applicable Laws, or by such other proceedings, including re-entry and
possession, as may be applicable. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease and/or elects to terminate
Tenant's right of possession, everything contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord to be done and
performed shall cease without prejudice, however, to Tenant's liability for all Rent specified herein and
any other amounts owed by Tenant to Landlord. Whether or not this Lease and/or Tenant's right of
possession is terminated, Landlord shall have the right, at its sole option, to terminate any renewal or
expansion right or other options contained in this Lease and to grant or withhold any consent or approval
pursuant to this Lease in its sole and absolute discretion. Landlord may relet the Premises or any part
thereof, alone or together with other premises, for such term(s) and on such terms and conditions as
Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, may determine,but Landlord shall not be liable for, nor shall
Tenant's obligations hereunder be diminished by reason of, any failure by Landlord to relet all or any
portion of the Premises or to collect any rent due upon such reletting. Whether or not this Lease is
terminated or any suit is instituted, Tenant shall be liable for (a) any Rent, damages or other sum which
may be due or sustained prior to such default, and for all costs, fees and expenses (including Professional
Fees, brokerage fees, expenses incurred in placing the Premises in first-class rentable condition,
advertising expenses, and any concessions or allowances granted by Landlord) incurred by Landlord in
pursuit of its remedies hereunder and in recovering possession of the Premises and renting the Premises to
others from time to time; and (b) should Landlord choose to exercise its option to accelerate the Rent
through the remainder of the Lease Term, not to exceed a period of two (2) years of Rent, Tenant hereby
acknowledging that Landlord has such right, and to that extent, all Rent shall be accelerated and become
immediately due and payable hereunder (the "Rent Acceleration"). In the event of such Rent
Acceleration, for purposes of calculating the amount of Operating Expenses due under the Lease for the
remainder of the remainder of the Lease Term, (i) Operating Expenses shall be deemed to increase by five
percent(5%) annually from and after the date of Default); and(c) should Landlord choose not to exercise
the Rent Acceleration, an amount equal to the Rent which would have become due from the date of
Tenant's Default through the remainder of the Lease Term, less the amount of rental, if any, which
Landlord receives during such period from others to whom the Premises may be rented (other than any
Additional Rent received by Landlord as a result of any failure of such other person to perform any of its
obligations to Landlord), which amount shall be computed and payable in monthly installments, in
advance, on the first day of each calendar month following Tenant's Default and continuing until the date
on which the Lease Term would have expired but for Tenant's Default. Separate suits may be brought
from time to time to collect any such damages for any month(s) (and any such separate suit shall not in
any manner prejudice the right of Landlord to collect any damages for any subsequent months), or
Landlord may defer initiating any such suit until after the expiration of the Lease Term (in which event
such deferral shall not be construed as a waiver of Landlord's rights as set forth herein and Landlord's
cause of action shall be deemed not to have accrued until the expiration of the Lease Term).
19.3 All rights and remedies of Landlord set forth in this Lease are cumulative and in addition to
all other rights and remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, including those available as a result
of any anticipatory breach of this Lease. The exercise by Landlord of any such right or remedy shall not
prevent the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy. No delay or failure by
Landlord to exercise or enforce any of Landlord's rights or remedies or Tenant's obligations shall
constitute a waiver of any such rights, remedies or obligations. Landlord shall not be deemed to have
waived any default by Tenant unless such waiver expressly is set forth in a written instrument signed by
Landlord. If Landlord waives in writing any default by Tenant, such waiver shall not be construed as a
waiver of'any covenant, condition or agreement set forth in this Lease except as to the specific
circumstances described in such written waiver.
19.4 If Landlord shall institute proceedings against Tenant and a compromise or settlement
thereof shall be made, then the same shall not constitute a waiver of the same or of any other covenant,
condition or agreement set forth herein, nor of any of Landlord's rights hereunder.Neither the payment by
Tenant of a lesser amount than the monthly installment of Base Rent, additional rent or of any sums due
hereunder nor any endorsement or statement on any check or letter accompanying a check for payment of
rent or other sums payable hereunder shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction. Landlord may accept
the same without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such rent or other sums or to
pursue any other remedy. Notwithstanding any request or designation by Tenant, Landlord may apply any
payment received from Tenant to any payment then due. No re-entry by Landlord, and no acceptance by
Landlord of keys from Tenant, shall be considered an acceptance of a surrender of this Lease unless
expressly identified by Landlord in writing as an acceptance of a surrender.
19.5 If Tenant fails to make any payment to any third party or to do any act herein required to be
made or done by Tenant, then Landlord may, but shall not be required to, make such payment or do such
act. The taking of such action by Landlord shall not be considered a cure of such default by Tenant or
prevent Landlord from pursuing any remedy it is otherwise entitled to in connection with such default. If
Landlord elects to make such payment or do such act, then all expenses incurred by Landlord, plus
interest thereon at a rate (the "Default Rate") equal to eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the date
incurred by Landlord to the date of payment thereof by Tenant, shall constitute additional rent due
Page 19 of 40
hereunder; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed as permitting Landlord to
charge or receive interest in excess of the maximum rate then allowed by law.
19.6 If Tenant fails to make any payment of Base Rent, additional rent or any other sum on or
before five (5) days after the date such payment is due and payable (without regard to any grace period
specified in Section 19.1, if applicable, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge of four percent
(4%) of the amount of such payment. In addition, if such payment is not paid within five (5) days from
the date such payment is due and payable, such payment shall bear interest at,the Default Rate from the
fifth (5th) day after such payment is due and payable until the date of payment thereof by Tenant;
provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed as permitting Landlord to charge or
receive interest in excess of the maximum rate then allowed by law. Such late charge and interest shall
constitute additional rent due hereunder without any notice or demand. Notwithstanding the forgoing, if
Tenant fails to make any payment for Additional A/C and Heating Costs, as defined in Section 14.1, on or
before thirty (30) days after the date such payment is due and payable, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord
a late charge of Tenant of four percent (4%) of the amount of such payment and such payment shall bear
interest at the Default Rate from the thirtieth (30th) day after such payment is due and payable until the
date such payment or late fee, respectively, is paid in full by Tenant, provided, however, that nothing
contained herein shall be construed as permitting Landlord to charge or receive interest in excess of the
maximum rate then allowed by law.
19.7 If Tenant does not remove all of its personal property including,but not limited to,Tenant's
furniture, fixtures, equipment, goods and chattels from the Premises ("Personal Property") upon
abandonment or expiration or earlier termination of this Lease , then Tenant irrevocably surrenders
possession, title, claim and interest to the Personal Property located within the Premises, and this Lease
shall be considered a bill of sale conveying all of Tenant's Personal Property to Landlord. Landlord shall
not be liable or responsible for storage or disposition or any accounting to the Tenant with respect to any
and all Personal Property at any time. Landlord may remove any or all such items and dispose of the same
in any manner including, without limitation, at Landlord's sole discretion, Landlord may sell any or all of
such property at public or private sale, in such manner and at such times and places as Landlord, in its
sole discretion, may deem proper. Landlord shall apply the proceeds of such sale to the amounts due
Landlord from Tenant under this lease and for the costs of storage and the sale.
19.8 CITY OF MIAMI BEACH TERMINATION RIGHT. Provided that Tenant is not in
default of any provisions of this Lease, beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, at the time of
Tenant's exercise of its right, Tenant shall have the one-time right to terminate this Lease after the first
Lease Year of the Term, by providing Landlord with one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice
of its election to terminate the Lease ("Termination Notice"). Such Termination Notice shall not be
effective unless it be accompanied by a fee equal to the unamortized amount, as of the termination date,
of the sum of: (i) the TI Allowance to the extent actually paid by Landlord, plus (ii) all brokerage
commissions actually paid by Landlord in connection with the Lease, all amortized over the Term of the
Lease(the"Termination Fee"). Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with a calculation of the Termination
Fee within thirty(30)days after Landlord receives a written request therefor.
19.9 In the event that Tenant assigns or sublets this Lease to a non-governmental entity, if more
than one natural person or entity shall constitute the assignee or sublessee, then the liability of each such
person or entity shall be joint and several. If assignee or sublessee is a general partnership or other entity,
the partners or members of which are subject to personal liability, then the liability of each such partner or
member shall be joint and several. No waiver, release or modification of the obligations of any such
person or entity shall affect the obligations of any other such person or entity.
ARTICLE XX

20.1 An "Event of Insolvency" is the occurrence with respect to any of Tenant, a Guarantor, if
applicable, or any other person liable for Tenant's obligations hereunder(including any general partner of
Tenant, only if applicable (a "General Partner")) of any of the following: (a) such person becoming

as and when the same come due, provided, however, this subsection (f) is only applicable if the Tenant
assigns or subleases this Lease to a non-governmental entity; or.(g)a decrease by fifty percent (50%) or
more of such person's net worth below the net worth of such person as of the date hereof, provided,
however, this subsection (g) is only applicable if the Tenant assigns or subleases this Lease to a non-
governmental entity. If Tenant assigns or subleases this Lease to a non-governmental entity, at any time
upon not less than five (5) days' prior written notice, the Assignee or Sublessee shall submit such
information concerning the financial condition of any such person as Landlord may request.The Assignee
or Sublessee warrants that all such information heretofore and hereafter submitted is and shall be correct
and complete.
ARTICLE XXI
SUBORDINATION
21.1 This Lease is automatically subject and subordinate to the lien, provisions, operation and
effect of all mortgages, deeds of trust, ground leases or other security instruments which may now or
hereafter-encumber the Building (collectively, "Mortgages"), to all funds and indebtedness intended to
be secured thereby, and to all renewals, extensions, modifications, recastings or refinancings thereof This
clause shall be self operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required to effect the
subordination of this Lease. The holder of any Mortgage to which this Lease is subordinate shall have the
right(subject to any required approval of the holders of any superior Mortgage)at any time to declare this
Lease to be superior to the lien, provisions, operation and effect of such Mortgage and Tenant shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver all documents required by such holder in confirmation thereof.
21.2 Tenant shall at Landlord's request promptly execute any requisite or appropriate document
confirming such subordination. Tenant appoints Landlord as Tenant's attorney in fact to execute any such
document for Tenant. If this Lease is not extinguished upon any such transfer or by the transferee
following a transfer by foreclosure, then, at the request of such transferee, Tenant shall attorn to such
transferee and shall recognize such transferee as the landlord under this Lease. Tenant agrees that upon
any such attornment, such transferee shall not be(a)bound by any payment of the Base Rent or additional
rent more than one(I)month in advance, except prepayments in the nature of security for the performance
by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease,hut only to the extent such prepayments have been delivered
to such transferee, (b) bound by any amendment of this Lease made without the consent of the holder of
each Mortgage existing as of the date of such amendment, (c) liable for damages for any breach, act or
omission of any prior landlord, or(d) subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against
any prior landlord; provided, however, that after succeeding to Landlord's interest under this Lease, such
transferee shall agree to perform in accordance with the terms of this Lease all obligations of Landlord
arising after the date of transfer. Within five (5) days after the request of such transferee, Tenant shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver any requisite or appropriate document submitted to Tenant confirming
such attornment.
21.3 After receiving notice from any person, firm or other entity that it holds a Mortgage on the
Building, no notice from Tenant to Landlord alleging any default by Landlord shall be effective unless
and until a copy of the same is given to such holder, trustee or ground lessor; provided, however, that
Tenant shall have been furnished with the name and address of such holder, trustee or ground lessor. The
curing of any of Landlord's defaults by such holder, trustee or ground lessor shall be treated as
performance by Landlord. In addition to the time afforded the Landlord for the curing of any default, any
such holder,trustee, or ground lessor shall have such additional time as may be necessary given the nature
and extent of the default (including such time as may be necessary in order to foreclose the Mortgage and
obtain possession of the Building after the expiration of the period allowed to the Landlord for the cure of
any such default within which to cure such default so long as any such holder, trustee or ground lessor
acts with reasonable diligence.
ARTICLE XXII
HOLDING OVER
22.1 Tenant acknowledges that it is extremely important that Landlord have substantial advance
notice of the date on which Tenant will vacate the Premises, because Landlord will require an extensive
period to locate a replacement tenant and because Landlord plans its entire leasing and renovation
program for the Building in reliance on its lease expiration dates.Tenant also acknowledges that if Tenant
fails to surrender the Premises or any portion thereof at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease
Term, then it will be conclusively presumed that the value to Tenant of remaining in possession, and the
loss that will be suffered by Landlord as a result thereof, far exceed the Base Rent and Additional Rent
that would have been payable had the Lease Term continued during such holdover period. Therefore, if
Tenant (or anyone claiming through Tenant) does not immediately surrender the Premises or any portion
thereof upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, then Tenant shall automatically
forfeit all rights to the security deposit then being held by Landlord pursuant to this Lease and the rent
payable by Tenant hereunder shall be increased to equal the greater of(1) fair market rent for the entire
Page 21 of 40
Premises, or(2) double the Base Rent, plus additional rent and other sums that would have been payable
pursuant to the provisions of this Lease if the Lease Term had continued during such holdover period.
Such rent shall be computed by Landlord and paid by Tenant on a monthly basis and shall be payable on
the first day of such holdover period and the first clay of each calendar month thereafter during such
holdover period until the Premises have been vacated. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease,
Landlord's acceptance of such rent shall not in any manner adversely affect Landlord's other rights and
remedies, including Landlord's right to evict Tenant and to recover all damages. Any such holdover shall
be deemed to be a tenancy-at-sufferance and not a tenancy-at-will or tenancy from month-to-month. In no
event shall any holdover be deemed a permitted extension or renewal of the Lease Term, and nothing
contained herein shall be construed to constitute Landlord's consent to any holdover or to give Tenant any
right with respect thereto.
ARTICLE XXIII
COVENANTS OF LANDLORD

OPTION TO RENEW
Provided that: 1)Tenant is in good standing at the time the option term is scheduled to commence and 2)
Tenant has not assigned its rights under this Lease in whole or in part or sublet all or any portion of the
Premises without the written consent of the Landlord, then Tenant, through its City Manager, shall have
the option, to be exercised by written notice to Landlord at least two hundred eighty five (285) days prior
to the expiration of the original Term of this Lease, to renew this Lease for one (1) additional term of
three (3) years (the "First Renewal Term"), and then one (1) additional term of three (3) years (the
"Second Renewal Term")upon the terms and conditions provided in the Lease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the monthly Minimum Base Rent payable during the Renewal
Terms shall be at the prevailing"Market Rate"as hereafter determined. There shall be no further right to
renew or otherwise extend the term of the Lease after the Second Renewal Term. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if Tenant fails or is unable to exercise the option to renew for the First Renewal Term, the
option to renew for the Second Renewal Term shall become void.
"Market Rate" shall mean the Minimum Base Rent that Landlord should reasonably be able to obtain for
the Premises effective the first day of the Renewal Term, which in no event shall be less than the
Minimum Base Rent in effect for the last month of the Lease Term, subject to Tenant's right to rescind
the option term exercised, as set forth herein. Said Market Rate shall be based on the prevailing market
rate for a Comparable Use to Tenant's use and other relevant factors including but not limited to size,
location, and condition. A"Comparable Use" shall be defined as Tenant's Use as set forth in Article VI
herein.
Landlord agrees to provide written notice of its determination of Market Rate within forty-five (45) days
after Tenant exercises its option to extend the term. Landlord's failure to notify Tenant within the forty-
five(45)days shall not be a waiver of Landlord's rights hereunder.
Pending Landlord's determination of the Market Rate or the resolution of any dispute the parties agree to
use, as provisional Minimum Base Rent for the beginning of the Renewal Term, monthly installments
equal to 110% of the Minimum Base Rent in effect for the last twelve (12) months of the then expiring
Initial Term.
Tenant, through its City Manager, shall have sixty (60) days to object to Landlord's determination of the
Market Rate and to provide Landlord with its determination of Market Rate, or rescind the option term
exercised, without any liability to Tenant. Tenant shall have the right to rescind the option term
exercised, without any liability to Tenant, commencing from the time Tenant notifies Landlord until sixty
(60) days after Landlord provides Tenant with the determination of the Market Rate. Should Tenant fail
to: (1) object to the Market Rate and provide Landlord with its determination within this time period or
(2) rescind the option term exercised, Tenant shall be deemed to have approved the Market Rate
determined by Landlord.
If Tenant objects to the Market Rate and Landlord and Tenant fail to reach an agreement within ninety
(90) days after Landlord's determination of the Market Rate, then the Market Rate shall be determined as
follows:
Each party shall appoint, within ten (10) days, a real estate appraiser ("Appraiser") who
has been active during the last five years doing appraisals of office properties in the area
in which the Premises are located. Should either party fail to appoint an Appraiser within
this time period, the Appraiser timely appointed shall reach a decision and that decision
shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant.
The two (2) Appraisers shall appoint a third Appraiser within five (5) days of their
appointment, who shall be qualified under the same criteria set forth above.
The three (3) Appraisers shall, within ten (10) days of the 3rd Appraiser's appointment,
reach a decision as to the Market Rate, which shall not be more than Landlord's rate or
less than Tenant's rate and shall notify the parties of their decision by providing the
parties with a written report and explanation of their findings. The decision of the
majority of the three(3)Appraisers shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant.
All costs of the Appraisers shall be shared equally by Landlord and Tenant.
Page 27 of 40
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Tenant acknowledges that the determination
of Market Rate shall not commence until and unless Tenant exercises its renewal option.
Provided, however, that in the event Tenant exercises its renewal option, Landlord may at its sole
discretion, provide Tenant, and Tenant shall execute, a new Lease or amendment reflecting the extended
Term of the Lease. Should Tenant fail or refuse to execute such new Lease or amendment and the term of
the Lease has expired, Tenant's monthly Minimum Base Rent shall be equal to twice (2) times the
monthly Minimum Base Rent in effect during the last month of the Initial Term.
The foregoing renewal option shall no longer be available and shall automatically cease to exist, upon the
occurrence of any of the following: (1) the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease, or (2) any
assignment of the Lease, subletting of the Premises (or any part thereof) or other transfer without the
written consent of the Landlord.
ARTICLE XXX

Lease Term. This Right of First Offer shall contain a copy of Landlord's proposed Lease amendment
setting forth the terms and conditions set forth in Section 4 herein. If, within ten (10) days (contingent
upon approval by the City Commission within forty-five (45) days from acceptance) of Landlord's offer
in writing of the First Offer Space to Tenant, Tenant fails to respond to such offer or elects not to enter
into a lease for the First Offer Space, this Right of First Offer shall automatically cease and be of no
further force or effect,

Section 2: Tenant, through its City Manager, may accept Landlord's offer by delivering to Landlord an
acceptance (hereinafter called "Tenant's Acceptance") of such offer within ten (10) days after Landlord
makes the offer, provided, however, Tenant's Acceptance shall be conditioned on the approval by the
City of Miami Beach Commission within forty five (45) days of the date of such Tenant's Acceptance.
TIME SHALL BE OF THE ESSENCE with respect to both the giving of Tenant's Acceptance and the
City of Miami Beach Commission's approval of such acceptance. If Tenant does not accept (or fails to
timely accept) an offer made by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Section with respect to the
First Offer Space and the City of Miami Beach does not timely approve (or fails to provide approval) of
Tenant's Acceptance, then Landlord shall be free to lease the First Offer Space to third parties on any
terms.
Section 3: Tenant must accept all First Offer Space offered by Landlord if it desires to accept any of
such First Offer Space and may not exercise its right with respect to only part of such space.

Commission also approves such acceptance pursuant to this Article, then the parties shall execute the
amendment to the Lease, as proposed by Landlord and approved by Tenant, which(i) adds the First Offer
Space to the Lease, (ii) reflects the amount of the Minimum Base Rent for the First Office Space at the
prevailing"Market Rate", as defined below, and (iii)memorializes that the term of the First Office Space
runs contemporaneously with this Lease Term.
The monthly Minimum Base Rent payable for the First Offer Space shall be at the prevailing "Market
Rate" as hereafter determined. "Market Rate" shall mean the Minimum Base Rent that Landlord
should reasonably be able to obtain for the Premises on the date of the City of Miami Beach
