7. INSURANCE; INDEMNITY.

7.1 | Liability Insurance. Lessee shall, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, obtain and keep in force during the Term and in accordance with the terms of this Lease commercially reasonable insurance coverage compliant with the minimum coverages detailed below in this Section 7.1 that insures Lessee and Lessor against liability arising out of the use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises by Lessee. The limits of said insurance shall not, however, limit the liability of Lessee for its obligations under this Lease.

| (a) | Minimum required insurance coverages:

| (1) | Worker’s Compensation Insurance or qualification as a self-insurer to satisfy the laws of the states which have jurisdiction over Lessee’s employees. To the extent permitted by law, Seller’s Worker’s Compensation Insurer or Lessee, if self-insured, agrees to waive rights of subrogation against Lessor.

| (2) | Employers’ Liability Insurance for Bodily Injury per accident with limits of not less than $1,000,000 and Bodily Injury by Disease with limits of not less than $1,000,000 per policy.

| (3) | Commercial General Liability Insurance for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage, including coverage for products/completed operations and contractual liability, with combined limits of not less than $2,000,000 per occurrence.

| (4) | Automobile Liability Insurance covering use of all owned, non-owned and hired vehicles with minimum combined single limits of liability for bodily injury and property damage of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence.

| (b) | Lessee agrees that during the Lease, Lessor will be named as an additional insured via endorsement on Lessee’s Commercial General Liability and that all Lessee’s insurance identified in Section 7.1(a) above will specifically indicate that coverage with respect to Lessor will be primary without right of contribution of any other insurance carried by or on behalf of Lessor. The intent is to exhaust all of the Lessee’s available and applicable coverage before the Lessor’s coverage is called upon to protect the Lessor. All of the above mentioned Lessee insurance will be occurrence-based coverages. Lessee may satisfy the limits of insurance required herein with any combination of primary and umbrella/excess insurance policies.

6

| (c) | Upon request, Lessee shall provide Lessor with written certification, reasonably acceptable to Lessor, certifying that (i) the required insurance coverages are in effect and will not be cancelled or materially changed until thirty (30) days after prior written notice has been delivered to Lessor, (ii) Lessor is designated as an additional insured on Lessee’s Commercial General Liability policy, and (iii) all of Lessee’s insurance identified herein will be primary and not contributory or excess of any other insurance carried by or on behalf of Lessor.

| (d) | The requirements in this Section 7 are separate and distinct from any other obligations of Lessee under this Lease.

7.2 | Insurance Policies. Lessee shall not do or permit to do anything which shall invalidate the insurance policies carried by Lessee.

7.3 | Mutual Waiver of Subrogation. Lessor and Lessee each hereby releases the other, its officers, directors, employees, affiliated companies and agents, from any and all liability or responsibility (to the other or anyone claiming through or under them by way of subrogation or otherwise) for any loss or damage to property covered by insurance which either party is required to maintain under this Lease, even if such loss or damage shall have been caused by the fault or negligence of the other party, or anyone for whom such party may be responsible. However, this release shall be applicable and in force and effect only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such time as the releasor’s insurance policies shall contain a clause or endorsement to the effect that any such release shall not adversely affect or impair said policies or prejudice the right of the releasor to recover thereunder. Lessor and Lessee each agrees that any fire and extended coverage insurance policies will include such a clause or endorsement as long as the same shall be obtainable without extra cost, or, if extra cost shall be charged therefor, so long as the other party pays such extra cost. If extra cost shall be chargeable therefor, each party shall advise the other party of the amount of the extra cost, and the other party, at its election, may pay the same, but shall not be obligated to do so.

7

7.4 | Indemnity. Except to the extent arising out of the actions or inactions of Lessor, or Lessor’s employees, agents, representatives or invitees, Lessee, for itself, and for its representatives and successors and assigns, shall indemnify and hold harmless Lessor, its agents, representatives, officers, shareholders, directors, affiliated companies and employees, and its successors and assigns (any one hereafter defined as a “Lessor Indemnitee” and collectively as the "Lessor Indemnitees") from and against any and all claims arising from Lessee's use of the Premises, or from the conduct of Lessee's agents, contractors, employees, invitees or business or from any activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by Lessee in or about the Premises or elsewhere and shall further indemnify and hold harmless Lessor Indemnitees from and against any and all claims arising from any breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Lessee's part to be performed under the terms of this Lease, including from any claim that Lessor’s act or omission gave rise to or caused Lessor to default on any current or future third party agreement for use of the Property, or arising from any act or omission of Lessee, or any of Lessee's agents, contractors, employees or invitees, and from and against all costs, attorney's fees, expenses and liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon; and in case any action or proceeding be brought against any Lessor Indemnitee by reason of any such claim, Lessee upon notice from such Lessor Indemnitee, shall defend the same at Lessee's expense through counsel of its own selection and Lessor Indemnitee shall cooperate with Lessee in such defense. Lessee, as a material part of the consideration to Lessor, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property of Lessee or injury to persons, in, upon or about the Premises arising from any cause and Lessee hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against any Lessor Indemnitee. The obligations of Lessee under this section shall survive the termination of this Lease as to any right of indemnity which shall have accrued prior to such termination.

Lessee, for itself, and for its representatives and successors and assigns hereby expressly agrees to waive any provision of any workers’ compensation act or other similar law whereby Lessee could preclude its joinder by a Lessor Indemnity as an additional defendant, or avoid liability for damages, contribution or indemnity in any action at law, or otherwise where Lessee’s or its representative’s employee or employees, heirs, assigns or anyone otherwise entitled to receive damages by reason of injury or death brings an action at law against any Lessor Indemnitee. Lessee’s obligation to Lessor Indemnitees herein will not be limited by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, benefits or compensation payable by or for Lessee under any workers’ compensation acts, disability benefit acts, or other employee benefit acts on account of claims against any Lessor Indemnitee by an employee of Lessee or anyone employed directly or indirectly by Lessee or its representatives or anyone for whose acts Lessee may be liable. The obligations in this Section 7.4 are in addition to Lessee’s duty to provide insurance and will not be altered by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation, or benefits payable by Lessee under any Workers’ Compensation Act or any other employee benefit act. Lessee’s obligations hereunder will not be limited to the extent of any insurance available to or provided by Lessee.

7.5 | Indemnity Process. If any claim or demand is asserted by third parties that may give rise to indemnification provided in Section 7.4, the Lessor Indemnitee shall notify the Lessee with respect of the existence of such claim or demand and of the facts within the Lessor Indemnitee’s actual knowledge that could reasonably relate thereto within 30 days after discovery or receipt of notice of such claim or demand; provided, however, any failure to provide notice of the claim or demand shall not affect the indemnity obligations except to the extent of any additional damage which is attributable to the delay. Lessee shall then have the right to contest, negotiate or settle any such claim or demand through counsel of its own selection, solely at the cost, risk and expense of Lessee.

8

7.6 | Exemption of Lessor from Liability. Except to the extent arising out of the actions or inactions of Lessor, or Lessor’s employees, agents, representatives or invitees, Lessee hereby agrees that Lessor shall not be liable for injury to Lessee's business or any loss of income therefrom or for damage to the goods, wares, merchandise or other property of Lessee, Lessee's employees, invitees, customers, or any other person in or about the Premises, nor shall Lessor be liable for injury to the person of Lessee, Lessee's employees, agents, contractors, invitees or customers, whether such damage or injury is caused by or results from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause, whether said damage or injury results from conditions arising upon the Premises, or from other sources or places and regardless of whether the cause of such damage or injury or the means of repairing the same is inaccessible to Lessee.

16. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.

16.1 | Each party (as "responding party") shall at any time upon not less than ten (10) days' prior written notice from the other party ("requesting party") execute, acknowledge and deliver to the requesting party a statement in writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and the date to which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (ii) acknowledging that there are not, to the responding party's knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of the requesting party, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Premises or of the business of the requesting party.

16.2 | The failure to deliver such statement or objection in a reasonable time following such request by the requesting party shall be conclusive upon the responding party that (i) this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by the requesting party, and (ii) there are no uncured defaults in the requesting party's performance.

17. | TIME OF ESSENCE.

Time is of the essence with respect to the obligations to be performed under this Lease.

18. | INCORPORATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS; MODIFICATION.

This Lease, collectively with the Separation Agreement and any all agreements referenced therein and ancillary thereto, contains all agreements of the parties with respect to the Premises and to any matter mentioned herein and that no prior or contemporaneous agreement or understanding pertaining to any such matter shall be effective. To the extent there is a conflict between the Separation Agreement and this Lease, the parties agree that both shall be construed in a manner giving as much effect to both as is possible under the circumstances, but to the extent it is not possible, and Separation Agreement shall govern. This Lease may be modified in writing only, signed by the parties in interest at the time of the modification.

19. | NOTICES.

Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and may be given by personal delivery, certified mail or electronic mail (e.g., e-mail), and shall be deemed sufficiently given if addressed to Lessee or to Lessor at the address noted below. Either party may by notice to the other specify a different address for notice purposes except that upon Lessee's taking possession of the Premises, the Premises shall automatically be deemed to constitute an acceptable address of Lessee for notice purposes. A copy of all notices required or permitted to be given to Lessor hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or parties at such addresses as Lessor may from time to time hereafter designate by notice to Lessee.

20. | WAIVERS.

No waiver by either party of any provision hereof shall be deemed a waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by the other party of the same or any other provision. The acceptance of rent hereunder by Lessor shall not be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach by Lessee of any provision hereof other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular rent so accepted, regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent.

21. | BINDING EFFECT; CHOICE OF LAW.

This Lease shall bind the parties, their personal representatives, successors and assigns. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws.

23. | SIGNS.

Lessee may install any signage it deems appropriate at its sole and absolute discretion. All signage shall, however, be subject to and in compliance with, all applicable regulations, ordinances and rules governing same.

24. | QUIET POSSESSION; AUTHORITY.

Upon Lessee observing and performing all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on Lessee's part to be observed and performed hereunder, Lessee shall have exclusive and quiet possession of the Premises for the entire Term hereof subject to the provisions of this Lease. The individuals executing this Lease on behalf of Lessor and Lessee represent and warrant to the other that they are fully authorized and legally capable of executing this Lease on behalf of Lessor and Lessee, and that such execution is binding upon the parties and their successors and assigns.

25. Force Majeure.

Neither party shall be deemed in default with respect to the failure to perform any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease if and to the extent that such failure is due in whole or in part to any commonly-understood force majeure event whose cause is beyond the party’s reasonable control. In such event, the time for performance shall be extended by an amount of time equal to the period of the delay so caused.

26. TRANSFER OF title.

Lessee shall have the right for the payment of $100 and other good and valuable consideration to purchase and take title to the Property, including but not limited to the Premises or any portion thereof, at its sole and absolute discretion at any time during the Term. Should Lessee not have purchased all of the Property prior to the expiration or termination of the Term of this Lease, Lessee shall be obligated to purchase and take title to the Property, including but not limited to Premises, at or as soon as reasonably possible following the expiration or termination of the Term hereof. Should Lessee fail to purchase and take title to the Property, including the Premises, following the expiration or termination of the Term hereof, Lessor shall have the right to put the Property, including but not limited to the Premises, to Lessee, and Lessee shall at that time take title to the Property, including but not limited to the Premises. The parties agree to take all actions necessary to effectuate the purchase and transfer of title to the Property, including but not limited to the Premises, from Lessor to Lessee. Any such purchase and transfer of title shall include all of Lessor’s right, title and interest in the Property, including but not limited to the Premises or any portion thereof, at the time of the transfer. LESSOR AND LESSEE HAVE CAREFULLY READ AND REVIEWED THIS LEASE AND EACH TERM AND PROVISION CONTAINED HEREIN AND, BY EXECUTION OF THIS LEASE, SHOW THEIR INFORMED AND VOLUNTARY CONSENT THERETO. THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE THAT, AT THE TIME THIS LEASE IS EXECUTED, THE TERMS OF THIS LEASE ARE COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE AND EFFECTUATE THE INTENT AND PURPOSE OF LESSOR AND LESSEE WITH RESPECT TO THE PREMISES.
