No receipt of money by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease, the service of any notice, the commencement of any suit, or a final judgment for possession shall reinstate, continue or extend the Term of this Lease or affect any such notice, demand, suit or judgment. No partial payment by Tenant shall be deemed to be other than on account of the full amount otherwise due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord shall be entitled to accept such payment without compromise or prejudice to any of the rights of Landlord hereunder or under any Applicable Laws. In the event that the Commencement Date or the expiration of the Term (or the date of any earlier termination of this Lease) falls on a date other than the first or last day of a calendar month, respectively, the Rent payable for such partial calendar month shall be prorated based on a per diem basis.

Landlord’s acceptance of any Late Charge, or any Late Payment Interest, shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to the Late Payment, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord hereunder or under any Applicable Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the [***] such late payments of Rent after the Delinquency Date in any [***] month period, Tenant shall not be required to pay any Late Charge or Late Payment Interest unless each such failure continues for a period of [***] Business Days after written notice from Landlord as to such late payment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Repair Period-Estimated exceeds one hundred eighty (180) days from the date that Landlord delivers the Casualty Repair Notice to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by, and effective upon, written notice to Tenant as part of the Casualty Repair Notice, which termination notice shall provide Tenant at least sixty (60) days to vacate and surrender the Tenant Space.

9.1.1.2 Tenant’s Termination Right. If (a) a Casualty Event causes damage to the Tenant Space causing the available power to such space to be reduced below 90% of the Electricity Demand Threshold, or (b) a Casualty Event causes damage to the Building, such that Tenant is prevented from accessing or using the Premises in a manner substantially similar to that prior to the Casualty Event, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by, and effective upon, written notice to Landlord if (i) the Repair Period-Estimated exceeds one hundred eighty (180) days (in which case Tenant must provide written notice to Landlord of such termination within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Casualty Repair Notice), or (ii) the Repair Period-Actual exceeds one hundred eighty (180) days (in which case Tenant must provide written notice to Landlord of such termination prior to the two hundred tenth (210th) day of the Repair Period-Actual).

9.1.1.3 Base Rent Abatement – Casualty Events. In the event that this Lease is terminated pursuant to Sections 9.1.1.1 or 9.1.1.2, above, Landlord shall refund to Tenant any prepaid Base Rent, less any sum then owing to Landlord by Tenant. If, however, this Lease is not terminated pursuant to any of said Sections, Base Rent shall be abated proportionately during the Repair Period-Actual to the extent that the Tenant Space (i) is unfit for use by Tenant in the ordinary conduct of Tenant’s business, and (ii) actually is not used by Tenant.

9.1.2 Takings.

9.1.2.1 Total Taking. If all or substantially all of the Tenant Space, the Building or the Property shall be the subject of a Taking, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of the vesting of title in the condemning authority.

9.1.2.2 Partial Taking. If only a part of the Tenant Space, the Building or the Property shall be the subject of a Taking, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, subject to the terms of Sections 9.1.2.3-9.1.2.7, below.

9.1.2.3 Intentionally Deleted.

| -11- |

9.1.2.4 Tenant’s Termination Right – Partial Taking. If the part of the Building or the Property that is taken or condemned as part of the Taking contains greater than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total area of the Tenant Space that existed immediately prior to such Taking, or if, by reason of such Taking, Tenant no longer has reasonable means of access to the Tenant Space and/or Tenant is prevented from accessing or using the Premises in a manner substantially similar to that prior to the Taking, Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord given within sixty (60) days following the date upon which Tenant received notice of such Taking. If Tenant so notifies Landlord, this Lease shall terminate upon the date set forth in the notice, which date shall not be more than thirty (30) days following the giving of such notice.

9.1.2.5 Restoration – Taking. If this Lease shall not have been terminated pursuant to Section 9.1.2.4, above, Landlord, at Landlord’s expense, shall, as soon as is reasonably practicable, restore that part of the Tenant Space that was not taken or condemned as part of the Taking to a self-contained rental unit substantially equivalent (with respect to character, quality, appearance and services) to that which existed immediately prior to occurrence of the Taking, excluding Tenant’s Personal Property; provided, however, that in the event Tenant receives an award for Tenant’s Alterations, such amounts shall be applied towards the restoration of such items, if so elected by Tenant.

9.1.2.6 Base Rent Abatement – Taking. In the event that this Lease is terminated pursuant to Sections 9.1.2.1 or 9.1.2.4, above, Landlord shall refund to Tenant any prepaid Base Rent, less any sum then owing to Landlord by Tenant. If, however, this Lease is not terminated pursuant to any of said Sections, Base Rent shall be reduced proportionately to the extent that the Premises is reduced as a result of the Taking.

9.1.2.7 Taking Award Rights. Landlord reserves the right to receive the entirety of the condemning authority’s award related to a Taking of any portion of the Property. The foregoing notwithstanding, in the event that this Lease is terminated in connection with any Taking, Landlord expressly permits Tenant to make a separate claim against the condemning authority, in any appropriate proceeding, for the value of Tenant’s taken leasehold improvements or other improvements to the Tenant Space made by Tenant and for Tenant’s moving expenses related to such Taking, but only if such claim and/or recovery does not reduce the condemnation/taking award otherwise payable to Landlord in connection with such Taking. If any such award that is made, or compensation that is paid, to either party specifically includes an award or amount for the other, the party first receiving the same shall promptly make an accounting of same to the other.

9.1.3 Tenant’s Remedy. Tenant’s termination rights and rights to Base Rent abatement, to the extent provided above in this Article 9, shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedies in the event of a Casualty Event or Taking.

9.2 Tenant’s Insurance. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, procure and maintain throughout the Term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance in accordance with the terms and requirements set forth in Schedule “B-1” to this Lease. All of Tenant’s insurance policies with respect to the Tenant Space shall be endorsed so as to include a waiver of subrogation in accordance with and to the full extent of Tenant’s waiver of claims with respect to the Landlord Group set forth in Section 14.1.1 of this Lease.

9.2.1 The commercial general liability policies procured by Tenant hereunder shall name Landlord and Landlord’s managing agent, and any Holders or other parties reasonably designated by Landlord as additional insureds. Prior to occupying the Tenant Space, and prior to the expiration of each such policy, Tenant shall submit to Landlord certificates of insurance evidencing such policies (and the applicable renewals thereof) being in effect.

9.2.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, so long as Tenant maintains an investment-grade credit rating during the entire period that Tenant has elected to self-insure, Tenant shall have the right, in Tenant’s sole and absolute discretion, to self-insure with respect to any or all of the insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this Lease. If Tenant elects to self-insure pursuant to this Section, then Tenant shall be deemed to hold insurance against such perils and/or liabilities in the minimum amounts of insurance which Tenant is otherwise required to maintain under the terms of this Lease. Tenant’s right to self-insure against perils and/or liabilities against which it would otherwise be required to obtain a policy of insurance under this Lease shall in no way limit or diminish the rights that Landlord would have had as an additional insured under any insurance policy, or the rights it has under any other provision of this Lease to receive from Tenant an amount equal to all or any portion of any insurance policy proceeds that would have been payable to Landlord or Tenant under any required policy of insurance that was not maintained by Tenant as a result of such self-insurance program but was otherwise required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease. Furthermore, Tenant’s right to self-insure shall in no way limit or diminish the waiver of subrogation or Tenant’s waiver of claims with respect to Landlord as set forth in this Lease.

| -12- |

9.3 Landlord’s Insurance. Landlord shall, at Landlord’s expense, procure and maintain throughout the Term of this Lease a policy or policies of insurance in accordance with the terms and requirements set forth in Schedule “B-2” to this Lease. Each of such insurance policies shall be endorsed so as to include a waiver of subrogation in accordance with and to the full extent of Landlord’s waiver of claims with respect to the Tenant Group set forth in Section 14.1.2 of this Lease. For the avoidance of doubt, however, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that, in no event, shall Landlord be obligated to carry any insurance covering any of Tenant’s Personal Property, any Alteration to the Tenant Space made by or on behalf of Tenant, or covering any Tenant Party.

10. TRANSFERS.

10.1 Restrictions on Transfers; Landlord’s Consent. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 10.1.1 and Section 10.5, below, to the contrary, Tenant shall not effect a Transfer, without Landlord’s express prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease, no Transfer (whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law) shall be valid or effective without Landlord’s prior written consent and, at Landlord’s election, any such Transfer or attempted Transfer shall constitute an Event of Default by Tenant under Section 15.1.2 of this Lease.

10.1.1 Permitted Transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant may, without the consent of Landlord, but subject to the requirements specified in the definition of “Permitted Transfers”, undertake Permitted Transfers. [***].

10.2 Notice to Landlord. If Tenant desires to make any Transfer (other than a Permitted Transfer, for which Tenant must merely satisfy the requirements specified in the definition of Permitted Transfers), then at least [***] days (but no more than [***] days) prior to the proposed effective date of the Transfer, Tenant shall submit a Transfer Notice to Landlord. If, thereafter, Tenant materially modifies any of the terms and conditions relevant to a proposed Transfer specified in the Transfer Notice, Tenant agrees to re-submit such Transfer Notice to Landlord for its consent pursuant to all of the terms and conditions of this Article 10.

10.3 Intentionally Deleted.

10.4 No Release; Subsequent Transfers. [***].

| -13- |

10.5 Colocation. Landlord acknowledges that the business to be conducted by the undersigned Tenant in the Premises may require Tenant to enter into Colocation Agreements that will permit Colocation Parties to engage in Colocation Activities. Landlord expressly agrees that Tenant may, without the need for Landlord’s consent, enter into such Colocation Agreements; provided, however, that (a) the Colocation Agreements, and each Colocation Party’s use of the Tenant Space, must comply with the terms of this Lease (including the Datacenter Rules and Regulations) and all Applicable Laws; (b) the Colocation Agreements, and the Colocation Parties’ rights thereunder, shall be subject and subordinate at all times to this Lease and all of its provisions, covenants and conditions; and (c) in no event may the rights of any Colocation Party, vis a vis the members of the Landlord Group, be greater than the rights of Tenant hereunder. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Colocation Agreements shall not constitute, or be deemed to be, the grant of a leasehold interest.

10.6 Limitation on Assignment or Sublease Arrangements. Tenant shall not enter into, nor shall it permit any Person having an interest in the possession, use, occupancy or utilization of any part of the Tenant Space to enter into, any sublicense, concession, assignment or other agreement for use, occupancy or utilization of Tenant Space (i) which provides for license fees or other compensation based in whole or in part on the income or profits derived by any Person or on any other formula such that any portion of such license fees, or other consideration for a license, concession, assignment or other occupancy agreement, would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the IRC if received, accrued or otherwise derived by a Person seeking to qualify as a “real estate investment trust” for federal income tax purposes or (ii) under which fifteen percent (15%) or more of the total fees or other compensation received by Tenant for a tax period is attributable, as determined under the principles of Section 856(d) of the IRC, to personal property.

11. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Within [***] days after notice from the other party, Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, shall execute and deliver a certificate substantially in the form of Schedule “P” attached hereto with the blanks filled in, or such other form reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant and any prospective purchaser, any Holder and/or encumbrancer of all or any portion of the real property of which the Tenant Space is a part, if applicable. Any such certificate may be relied upon by the prospective purchaser, any current and/or prospective Holder, the encumbrancer of all or any portion of the real property of which the Tenant Space is a part and any actual or prospective joint venture party or other prospective private equity investor in the Landlord or its Affiliates.

12. SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT; HOLDER RIGHTS.

12.1 Subordination and Attornment. Subject to the terms of Section 12.2 below, without the necessity of any additional document being executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, and at the election of Landlord or any Holder, this Lease will be subject and subordinate at all times to all Security Documents, which may now exist or hereafter be executed which constitute a lien upon or affect the Property or any portion thereof, or Landlord’s interest and estate in any of said items. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord reserves the right to subordinate (or cause the subordination of) any such Security Documents to this Lease. Subject, in all events, to the terms of the applicable SNDA, in the event of any termination or transfer of Landlord’s estate or interest in the Property, the Building or the Tenant Space by reason of any termination or foreclosure of any such Security Documents (and notwithstanding any subordination of such Security Document to this Lease that may or may not have occurred), at the election of Landlord’s successor in interest, Tenant agrees to attorn to and become the tenant of such successor, in which event Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises will not be disturbed as long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease. Subject, in all events, to the terms of the applicable SNDA, Tenant hereby waives any right under any Applicable Law or otherwise to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of Tenant hereunder in the event of any termination or transfer of Landlord’s estate or interest in the Property, the Building, or the Tenant Space by reason of any termination or foreclosure of any such Security Documents. Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt thereof, and in the form reasonably required by Landlord or any Holder (and reasonably acceptable to Tenant), any additional documents evidencing the priority or subordination of this Lease and Tenant’s agreement to attorn with respect to any such Security Document; provided, however, any such agreement subordinating this Lease to such lease, mortgage or deed of trust shall contain a non-disturbance provision that is reasonably acceptable to such Holder, Landlord and Tenant in accordance with Section 12.2, below.

| -14- |

12.2 SNDA. Notwithstanding and supplementing Section 12.1, as a condition to any such subordination, the Holder must provide Tenant with, and Tenant shall enter into, an SNDA agreeing to recognize this Lease and Tenant’s rights hereunder in the event of a sale or foreclosure under the applicable Security Document or transfer in lieu thereof in substantially the same the form as the form attached hereto as Schedule “Q”, subject to such commercially reasonable changes to such form SNDA as may be required by the applicable Holder but which do not (individually or in the aggregate) materially either increase the obligations of Tenant hereunder or affect the rights of Tenant hereunder.

12.3 SMBC SNDA. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that an SNDA from the Existing Mortgagee, defined above (such SNDA, the “SMBC SNDA”) [***]; provided, however, that Tenant’s right and election to terminate the Lease will be withdrawn, void and of no force or effect if Landlord pays the debt due under the SMBC Mortgage in its entirety or if the Property is otherwise released from the SMBC Mortgage (the occurrence of either such event, the “SMBC SNDA Requirement Satisfaction”) on or prior to the SMBC SNDA Failure Termination Date. Accordingly, in the event of SNDA Requirement Satisfaction prior to the SMBC SNDA Failure Termination Date, Tenant’s exercise of the termination right described in this Section 12.3 shall be deemed to be null, void, and withdrawn, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. Additionally, Landlord and Tenant agree that, in the event of SMBC SNDA Requirement Satisfaction at any time prior to the SMBC SNDA Failure Termination Date, Landlord will promptly notify Tenant of the same. The parties acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Section 12.3 is intended to negate the obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this Lease as it relates to any future Holder.

13. SURRENDER OF TENANT SPACE; HOLDING OVER.

13.1 Tenant’s Method of Surrender. Upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease or the termination of Tenant’s right to possess the Tenant Space, Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 13, quit and surrender possession of the Tenant Space to Landlord in good working order and clean condition, ordinary wear and tear, Casualty, Taking and repairs that are the responsibility of Landlord excepted.

13.2 Removal and Disposal of Tenant’s Personal Property.

13.2.1 Removal of Tenant’s Personal Property. Tenant agrees that, on or prior to the date that is [***] days after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, promptly remove all of Tenant’s Personal Property, and shall restore those portions of the Building and/or the Tenant Space damaged by such removal of (or by the initial installation of) such Tenant’s Personal Property to their condition existing immediately prior to the installation or placement of such items (including, without limitation, the replacement of all damaged floor tiles in the Premises), ordinary wear and tear excepted. If Tenant fails to so remove any such Tenant’s Personal Property pursuant to this Section 13.2.1, Landlord shall have the right to cause the removal of such Tenant’s Personal Property and the restoration of those portions of the Building and/or the Tenant Space damaged by such removal to their condition existing immediately prior to the installation or placement of such Tenant’s Personal Property, ordinary wear and tear excepted, in which case Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s demand therefor, for all of Landlord’s costs of removal and restoration [***].

| -15- |

13.2.2 Disposal of Tenant’s Personal Property. If any property not belonging to Landlord remains in the Tenant Space after the expiration of, or within thirty (30) days after any earlier termination of, the Term of this Lease or the termination of Tenant’s right to possess the Tenant Space, then Landlord may notify Tenant of such fact in writing and, if Tenant fails to cause any such property to be removed from the Tenant Space within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of such written notice, then Tenant shall be deemed to have abandoned such property and to have authorized Landlord to make such disposition of such property as Landlord may desire without liability for compensation or damages to Tenant or any other Tenant Party.

13.3 Holding Over. If Tenant should remain in possession of all or any portion of the Tenant Space after the expiration of the Term of this Lease (or any earlier termination of this Lease or the termination of Tenant’s right to possess the Tenant Space), without the execution by Landlord and Tenant of a new lease or an extension of the Term of this Lease, then Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying the entire Tenant Space as a tenant-at-sufferance, upon all of the terms contained herein, except as to term and Base Rent and any other provision reasonably determined by Landlord to be inapplicable. During any such holdover period, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a monthly Base Rent in an amount equal to [***] of the Base Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord during the last month of the Term of this Lease and [***] of the elements of Additional Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord during the last month of the Term of this Lease. The monthly rent payable for such holdover period shall in no event be construed as a penalty or as liquidated damages for such retention of possession, nor shall such monthly rent be considered to be any form of Consequential Damages related to such retention of possession. Neither any provision hereof nor any acceptance by Landlord of any rent after any such expiration or earlier termination shall be deemed a consent to any holdover hereunder or result in a renewal of this Lease or an extension of the Term, or any waiver of any of Landlord’s rights or remedies with respect to such holdover. As such, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, Landlord expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Tenant Space upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease or upon the earlier termination hereof or at any time during any holdover and the right to assert any remedy at law or in equity to evict Tenant and collect damages in connection with any such holdover.

13.4 Survival. The provisions of this Article 13 shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Lease.

14. WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION; CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; LIENS.

This indemnity provision and Tenant’s obligations under this Section 14.2 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease as to any matters arising prior to such expiration or termination or prior to Tenant’s vacation of the Tenant Space and the Building. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Section 14.2, nothing contained in this Section 14.2 shall be interpreted or used in any way to affect, limit, reduce or abrogate any insurance coverage provided by any insurer to either Tenant or Landlord.

14.2.2.2 In the event that any action or proceeding is brought against Tenant or any other member of the Tenant Group by reason of any indemnified Claim, Landlord upon notice from Tenant shall defend such action or proceeding at Landlord’s cost and expense by counsel reasonably approved by Tenant. This indemnity provision and Landlord’s obligations under this Section 14.2 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease as to any matters arising prior to such expiration or termination. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Section 14.2, nothing contained in this Section 14.2 shall be interpreted or used in any way to affect, limit, reduce or abrogate any insurance coverage provided by any insurer to either Tenant or Landlord.

Once and if Landlord (and/or any successor to Landlord) shall convey its interest in the Property to a third party or to an Affiliate of Landlord (subject to the terms of Section 16.4, below), (a) Landlord (and each such successor) and Landlord’s Guarantor (except as it relates to a conveyance to an Affiliate of Landlord) shall be fully released from all of the obligations and liabilities of Landlord under the Lease Documents (and of Landlord Guarantor under the Landlord Guaranty) accruing on or after the date of such transfer of Landlord’s interest in the Property to such third party; provided, however, in no event shall such release be effective prior to the Commencement Date for the final Phase hereunder, and (b) except as otherwise provided in clause (a) hereinabove, Tenant agrees to look solely to the successor-in-interest of Landlord for all such obligations and liabilities accruing on or after the date of such transfer. If any security has been given by Tenant to secure the faithful performance of any of the covenants of this Lease, Landlord shall transfer or deliver said security, as such, to Landlord’s successor in interest and thereupon Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with regard to said security.

16.3.1 Status as a Real Estate Investment Trust. Without limiting any other right that Landlord may have under this Lease or under applicable laws, Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to assign part or all of its interest and obligations in and under this Lease to an affiliate of Landlord, if and to the extent that Landlord determines such action is necessary or advisable in connection with the status of Landlord, or any Person holding a direct or indirect interest in Landlord, as a real estate investment trust within the meaning of Section 856 of the IRC (a “REIT”). To the extent any amount, fee, charge, or other Rent (in addition to or included in the Base Rent) is paid with respect to services described in this Lease that are assigned to and provided by or on behalf of an affiliate of Landlord (pursuant to this Section 16.3.1 or otherwise), except as may otherwise be agreed between Landlord and such Affiliate of Landlord, any such amounts paid by Tenant to Landlord with respect to such services (as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion) will be received by Landlord as agent of, and paid over to, such Affiliate.

16.4 Sale and Change of Control. This Lease is binding on the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Except for transactions with an Acceptable Counterparty, or as may be approved by Tenant in writing, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, or as permitted under Section 16.5, Landlord will not sell the Property, be subject to the transfer of the right to exercise fifty percent (50%) or more of the direct voting rights of Landlord, or assign its interest in this Lease (except for collateral assignments in connection with financing); provided that in no event shall Landlord be permitted to sell, transfer or assign as set forth hereinabove prior to the Commencement Date for the final Phase hereunder (except for collateral assignments in connection with financing and transfers to an Affiliate of Landlord, subject, in any event, to the terms of Section 16.3 above). [***]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that (a) Landlord has signed a letter of intent with, or entered into a contract or an agreement (or equivalent thereof) with an entity that was not listed as a Tenant Competitor during the thirty (30) day period immediately preceding the date that Landlord signed such letter of intent or other agreement, and (b) prior to Tenant’s addition of such party to the list of Tenant Competitors either (A) Landlord has delivered written notice of the identity of such party to Tenant (such notice, prior to completion of the transaction, is permissible, but is not required), or (B) there has been a public announcement, press release or other publishing of the pendency of such transaction (regardless of whether Landlord has delivered written notice of the identity of such party), then, in any such event, such transaction, if it closes within the [***] following the occurrence of items (a), (b)(A) or (b)(B), above, shall not be considered a transfer to a Tenant Competitor. [***]. During the Term, Landlord shall not permit the transfer of a Controlling interest in Landlord to a Tenant Competitor, or to any entity if, immediately following such transfer, Landlord would fail to meet subsection 3 of the Acceptable Counterparty definition.

16.5 Provision of Landlord Services. [***].

17. MISCELLANEOUS.

17.1 Severability. If it is found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, (i) the remaining terms and provisions hereof shall be unimpaired and shall remain in full force and effect; and (ii) the invalid or unenforceable term or provision shall be replaced by a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to effectuating the intention of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision.

17.2 No Waiver. No failure or delay by Landlord to insist on the strict performance of any obligation, covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Lease, or to exercise any right or remedy available upon such non-performance, will constitute a waiver thereof, and no breach or failure by Tenant to perform will be waived, altered or modified, except by written instrument signed by Landlord.

17.3 Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. If either Landlord or Tenant initiates any litigation, mediation, arbitration or other proceeding regarding the enforcement, construction or interpretation of this Lease, then each party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees and costs (including, without limitation, all expense reimbursements, expert witness fees, litigation costs, court or arbitration tribunal costs, filing fees, exhibit fees, forensic consultant fees, litigation support costs, expert witness fees, the costs of appeals and attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with post-judgment collection and enforcement efforts). The parties agree that this Section 17.3 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

17.4 Waiver of Right to Jury Trial. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LANDLORD AND TENANT EACH EXPRESSLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY TRIAL HELD AS A RESULT OF A CLAIM ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR IN ANY MANNER RELATED TO THIS LEASE IN WHICH LANDLORD AND TENANT ARE ADVERSE PARTIES. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THE FILING OF A CROSS-COMPLAINT BY ONE AGAINST THE OTHER IS SUFFICIENT TO MAKE THE PARTIES “ADVERSE.”

17.5 Headings; Time; Survival. The headings of the Articles, Sections and Schedules of this Lease are for convenience only and do not define, limit or construe the contents thereof. Words of any gender used in this Lease shall be held and construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular number shall be held to include the plural, unless the context otherwise requires. Unless otherwise specifically indicated to the contrary, the word “days” as used in this Lease shall mean and refer to calendar days. In all instances where a party is required to pay any sum or do any act at a particular indicated time or within an indicated period, it is understood that time is of the essence. Any obligations of a party accruing prior to the expiration or termination of this Lease shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease, and such party shall promptly perform all such obligations whether or not this Lease has expired.

17.6 Notices. Any notice which may or shall be given under the provisions of this Lease shall be in writing and may be delivered by (i) hand delivery or personal service, (ii) a reputable overnight courier service which provides evidence of delivery, or (iii) e-mail (so long as a confirming copy is forwarded by a reputable overnight courier service within twenty-four (24) hours thereafter), if for Landlord, to the address specified in Item 11 of the Basic Lease Information, or if for Tenant, at the address specified in Item 3 of the Basic Lease Information, or at such other addresses as either party may have theretofore specified by written notice delivered in accordance herewith. Such address may be changed from time to time by either party by giving notice as provided herein. Notice shall be deemed given, (a) if delivered by hand or personal service, when delivered, (b) if sent by a reputable overnight courier service, on the Business Day immediately following the Business Day on which it was sent, or (c) the date the e-mail is transmitted.

17.7 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Lease shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state in which the Property is located. In addition, Landlord and Tenant hereby submit to the local jurisdiction of the State in which the Property is located. Each party agrees that any action by the other against such party shall be instituted in the State in which the Property is located. The Parties agree, where practicable, to use reasonable measures to attempt to resolve disputes arising under this Lease through escalation to respective executive management teams before initiating any litigation.

17.8 Incorporation; Amendment; Merger. This Lease, along with any schedules or other documents referred to herein, all of which are hereby incorporated into this Lease by this reference, constitutes the entire and exclusive agreement between Landlord and Tenant relating to the Tenant Space and each of the aforementioned documents may be altered, amended or revoked only by an instrument in writing signed by the party to be charged thereby. All prior or contemporaneous oral or written agreements, understandings and/or practices relative to the leasing or use of the Tenant Space are merged herein or revoked hereby.

Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that it has read and reviewed this Lease and that it has had the opportunity to confer with counsel in the negotiation of this Lease. Accordingly, this Lease shall be construed neither for nor against Landlord or Tenant, but shall be given a fair and reasonable interpretation in accordance with the meaning of its terms and the intent of the parties. This Lease shall not be binding or effective until each of the parties hereto has executed and delivered a signed counterpart hereof to each other. No contractual or other rights shall exist between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the Tenant Space until both have executed and delivered this Lease, notwithstanding that Landlord has delivered to Tenant an unexecuted copy of this Lease. The submission of this Lease to Tenant shall not constitute the grant of an option for Tenant to lease, or otherwise create any interest by Tenant in, the Tenant Space. The execution of this Lease by Tenant and return to Landlord shall not be binding upon Landlord, notwithstanding any time interval, until Landlord has, in fact, executed and delivered this Lease to Tenant.

17.11 Recordation. Landlord or Tenant or any person or entity acting through, under or on behalf of Landlord or Tenant may record or cause the recordation of this Lease, a short form memorandum of this Lease or any reference to this Lease in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant.

Except for the extent to which a party’s obligations or rights are expressly stated herein to apply notwithstanding the effect of Force Majeure events, a party shall incur no liability to the other party with respect to, and shall not be responsible for any failure to perform, any of its obligations hereunder (other than payment obligations or obligations that may be cured by the payment of money (e.g., maintaining insurance)) if such failure is caused by a Force Majeure event. The amount of time for a party to perform any of its obligations (other than payment obligations) shall be extended by the amount of time such party is delayed in performing such obligation by reason of any Force Majeure event.

17.15 No Partnership or Joint Venture; No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be deemed or construed to create the relationship of principal and agent, or partnership, or joint venturer, or any other relationship between Landlord and Tenant other than landlord and tenant. Landlord shall have no obligations hereunder to any person or entity other than Tenant, and no other parties shall have any rights hereunder as against Landlord.

17.16 Access by Landlord. Subject to the terms of Schedule “N” attached hereto, [***].
