in Columbus, Ohio, and shall include but not be limited to the following:
All costs incurred in connection with the operation, inspection and servicing
of the Building and Real Property, including outside maintenance contracts,

and mechanical equipment and the cost of materials, supplies, tools, and
equipment used in connection therewith; costs of utilities, including but not
limited to electricity, steam, gas, and fuel; all expenses and costs necessary
or desirable to maintain the Building and the Real Property in a good and
workmanlike condition; premiums paid for insurance, including but not limited
to, boiler, flood, water damage, fire and extended coverage, liability, rental

supplies including charges for telephone, postage, stationery supplies, and
other materials and expenses required for routine management and operation

determined on an accrual basis, and during any lease year, calendar year,
or portion thereof in which less than Ninety-five Percent (95%) of the total
rentable space of the Building is not leased, Lessor may adjust the Operating,
Maintenance, Taxes and Other Expenses for that lease year, calendar year
or portion thereof to reflect what the Operating, Maintenance, Taxes and
Other Expenses would have been had the building been fully leased. The
payment of the Lessee's proportionate share of Operating, Maintenance, Taxes
and Other Expenses shall be considered as Additional Rent, and shall be paid
in accordance with Section Five (5) entitled Budget for Operating, Maintenance,
Taxes and Other Expenses.
5. BUDGET FOR OPERATING, MAINTENANCE, TAXES AND OTHER EXPENSES
Relative to the payment of Lessee's proportionate share of Operating,
Maintenance, Taxes and Other Expenses, the Lessor shall provide prior to
the Commencement Date an estimate, upon review of all reasonably
ascertainable information, of its total projected costs for the same for the
next ensuing year or the remaining portion of the existing calendar year as
Lessor shall determine. Lessor shall thereafter provide to Lessee a statement
indicating the same, and the Lessee's proportionate share of the same, and
the Lessee's respective monthly contribution of the same.
-3-
Lessee shall thereafter pay in advance, on the first day of every calendar
.month of the term, without demand, the same being hereby waived, and without
any set off or deduction whatsoever, and in accordance with all the terms
and conditions relative to the payment of Base Rent, its monthly contribution
as so projected. These sums are sometimes herein referred to as Additional
Rent.
Lessor shall upon completion of each Lease year or calendar year as Lessor
shall determine, diligently prepare an accounting of the actual costs incurred
relative to the same including the Lessee's proportionate share of such actual
costs. Lessor shall provide such an accounting to Lessee upon completion
of the same. Thereafter, Lessee may upon reasonable notice and during normal
business hours, review the books and records of the Lessor as they relate
to such estimates and/or accountings, and Lessee may, upon payment of any
costs associated therewith, obtain copies of the same.
With respect to Lessee's proportionate share, upon determination of the actual
costs incurred as set forth above, if such actual costs incurred by Lessor
exceed the actual amounts paid by Lessee pursuant to the estimated payments
as described above, Lessee shall promptly pay over unto Lessor an amount
equal to the difference between the actual costs incurred by Lessor, and
the actual amount paid by Lessee relative to such items. In the event the
actual amount paid by Lessee exceeded the actual costs incurred by Lessor,
Lessee may if Lessee is not otherwise in default of any of the terms and
conditions of this Lease requiring payment of monies (i.e. Base Rent, or
Additional Rent), at Lessee's option, elect to receive prompt reimbursement
of the difference between the amount actually paid by Lessee and the actual
costs incurred by Lessor, or Lessee may elect to apply the difference as a
credit toward Additional Rent next due and payable. In no case shall Lessor
be required to pay Lessee interest on any over payment by Lessee pursuant
to this plan.
6. CONSTRUCTION AND COMPLETION OF THE PREMISES
Lessor agrees to complete the construction of the Building and Premises
upon the Real Property. In the event the Lessor shall be delayed or hindered
or prevented in the performance of any obligations required under the Lease
by reasons of strike, lockouts, inability to procure labor or materials, failure
of power, fire or other acts of God, restrictive governmental laws or
regula tions, riots, insurrection, war or any other reason not within the
reasonable control of Lessor, then the performance of such obligations shall
be excused for the period of such delay and the period for the performance
of any such act shall be extended for a period equivalent to the period of
such delay. -------
Lessor and Lessee agree that the demised premises shall be constructed as
per Exhibit B attached and made a part hereof subject to Lessee's final approval
of Lessor's construction drawings. The cost of construction of said drawings
shall be borne by the Lessor.
7. ASSIGNMENT BY LESSOR
Lessor may sell, assign, transfer, or convey its interest in this Lease or the
Real Property, Premises, or Building at any time at its sole and absolute
discretion. If Lessor shall sell, assign, transfer or convey the Real Property,
Building, or Premises, such sale shall be subject to this Lease, and Lessee
shall look to the assignee or transferee of Lessor's interest in this Lease for
the performance of Lessor's obligations hereunder, and the Lessor shall from
and after such assignment or transfer be relieved and discharged from any
and all liabilities and obligations under this Lease. Lessor shall send notice

time the Lessee remains in possession and, in addition thereto, Lessee shall
pay the Lessor for all damages, incidental, consequential, and direct,
sustained by reason of the Lessee's retention of possession. The provisions
of this Section do not exclude the Lessor's rights of re-entry or any other
right hereunder. No such holding over shall be deemed to constitute a
renewal or exentsion of the term hereof.
15. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

consent of Lessor as stated above, Lessor may, after default by Lessee,
collect rent from the assignee, subtenant or occupant, and apply the net
amount collected to the Base and Additional Rent herein reserved, but

acceptance of such assignee, subtenant or occupant as Lessee, or a release
of Lessee from further performance by Lessee of covenants on the part
of Lessee herein contained.
In the event a sublease or assignment is made, with the Lessor's prior written
consent, as herein provided, Lessee shall pay Lessor a reasonable charge
as reimbursement for necessary legal and accounting services required

Rent required to be paid by Lessee, the difference shall be shared equally
by Lessor and Lessee after deductions therefrom of any leasing commissions
and any alteration expenses actually incurred and paid for by Lessee in
connection with such subletting or assignment. In no event shall the Base
Rent for such assignment or subletting be less than the Base Rent required
to be paid by Lessee hereunder.

Except as otherwise agreed to in writing, Lessee's taking possession of
the Premises shall be conclusive evidence as against the Lessee that the
-9-
.
Premises were in good order and satisfactory condition when the Lessee .,
took possession, except as to latent defects. No promise of the Lessor
to alter, remodel, repair or improve the Premises or the Building and no
representation respecting the condition of the Premises or the Building
has been made by Lessor to Lessee, other than as may be contained herein
or in a separate agreement signed by Lessor and Lessee. At the termination
of this Lease, the Lessee shall return the Premises "broom-clean" and in
as good condition as when the Lessee took possession, ordinary wear and
loss by fire or other insured casualty excepted, failing which the Lessor
may restore the Premises to such conditions and the Lessee shall pay the
cost thereof on demand.
17. USE OF PREMISES
Lessee shall use the Premises for general office purposes, and for no other
purposes. In addition, Lessee agrees to comply with the Rules and
Regulations set forth by Lessor and with such reasonable modifications
thereof and additions thereto as the Lessor may hereafter from time to
time make for the Building and Real Property including those prescribed
for the Parking Area and Picnic Area. The initial Rules and Regulations
are attached hereto as Exhibit "C". The Lessor shall not be responsible
for the non-observance by any other tenant of any of said Rules and
Regulations.
18. REPAIRS
Lessee shall give to Lessor prompt written notice of any damage to, or
defective condition in any part of the Building's plumbing, electrical, heating,
air-conditioning or other systems serving, located in, or passing through
the Premises. Subject to the provisions of Sections Eight (8) ("Services")
and Nineteen (19) ("Untenability"), the Lessee shall, at the Lessee's own
expense, keep the Premises in good order, condition and repair during the
term, and the Lessee, at the Lessee's expense, shall comply with all laws
and ordinances, and all rules and regulations of all governmental authorities
and of all insurance bodies at any time in force, applicable to the Premises
or to the Lessee's use thereof, except that the Lessee shall not hereby
be under any obligation to comply with any law, ordinance, rule or regulation
requiring any structural alteration of the Premises, unless such alteration
is required by reason of a condition which has been created by, or at the
insistance of, the Lessee, or is required by reason of a breach of any of
the Lessee's covenants and agreements hereunder. Lessor shall not be
required to repair any injury or damage by fire or other cause, or to make
any repairs or replacements of any panels, decoration, office fixtures,
railing, ceiling, floor covering, partitions, or any other property installed
in the Premises by the Lessee or installed by Lessor at Lessee's request.
19. UNTENABILITY
If the Premises or the Building or a substantial part of either are damaged
or destroyed by fire or other casualty, cause or condition whatsoever, such
that the damage or destruction cannot be repaired within One Hundred
Eighty (180) days, Lessor may, by written notice to the Lessee given within
-10-
,
"f"f.
thirty (30) days after such damage, terminate this Lease. If the Premises
are damaged or the access or use thereof is affected by the damage, then
Lessor's termination shall be effective as of the date of such damage,
otherwise said termination shall be effective thirty (30) days after receipt
of such notice by the Lessee.
If as a result of a fire or other casualty, cause or condition whatsoever,
the Common Areas are damaged to such an extent as to substantially
interfere with Lessee's use of the Premises or if the Premises or a substantial
part thereof are made untenable, such that the damage or destruction cannot
be repaired within One Hundred Eighty (180) days, then Lessee may terminate
this Lease by giving written notice to Lessor within thirty (30) days after
such damage, said termination to be effective as of the date of such damage.
Unless this Lease is terminated as hereinabove provided, Lessor shall proceed
with due diligence to restore, repair and replace the Premises and Building
to substantially the same condition as they were in as of the date of
occupancy by Lessee. Lessor shall be under no duty to restore any
alterations, improvements or additions made by the Lessee or by Lessor
at Lessee's request. In all cases, due allowances shall be given to the Lessor
for any reasonable delays caused by adjustment of insurance loss, strikes,
labor difficulties, inability to obtain supplies or materials or any cause
beyond Lessor's control.
20. EMINENT DOMAIN
(a) In the event that title to all of the Real Property containing the entire
Building, or a portion of the Real Property containing a substantial portion
of the Building, shall be lawfully condemned or taken in any manner for
any public or quasi-public use, this Lease and the term and estate hereby
granted shall forthwith cease and terminate as of the date of vesting of
title and the Lessor shall be entitled to receive the entire award paid by
the condemning authority, the Lessee hereby assigning to the Lessor the
Lessee's interest therein, if any. However, nothing herein shall be deemed
to require Lessee to assign to Lessor any award made to Lessee for the
taking of personal property or fixtures belonging to Lessee or for the
interruption of or damage to Lessee's business or for Lessee's moving
expenses.
(b) In the event that title to a portion of the Real Property containing
no substantial portion of the Building, shall be so condemned or taken,
this Lease shall remain in full force and effect without rent abatement,
apportionment, or other alteration whatsoever, and Lessor shall be entitled
to receive the entire award paid by the condemning authority, if any, the
Lessee assigning to the Lessor the Lessee's interest therein, if any.
(c) For the purpose of this Section Twenty (20), a sale to a public or
quasi-public authority under threat of condenmation shall constitute a
vesting of title and shall be construed as a taking by such condemning
authority.

21. LESSOR'S REMEDIES
All rights and remedies of the Lessor herein enumerated shall be cumulative,
and none shall exclude any other right or remedy allowed by law or in equity.
In addition to the other remedies in this Lease, the Lessor shall be entitled
to the restraint by injunction of the violation or attempted violation of
any of the covenants, agreements or conditions of this Lease.
(a) If the Lessee shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a
receiver, trustee or liquidator of the Lessee or of all or a substantial part
of its assets, (ii) file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or admit in writing
its inability to pay its debts as they come due, (iii) make a general assignment
for the benefit of creditors, (iv) file a petition or an answer seeking
reorganization or arrangement with creditors or to take advantage of any
insolvency law, or (v) file an answer admitting the material allegations
of a petition filed against the Lessee in any bankruptcy, reorganization
or insolvency proceeding, or if an order, judgment or decree shall be entered
by any court of competent jurisdiction adjudicating the Lessee a bankrupt
or insolvent or approving a petition seeking reorganization of the Lessee
or appointing a receiver, trustee or liquidator of the Lessee or of all or
a substantial part of its assets, then, in any of such events, the Lessor may
give to the Lessee a notice of intention to end the term of this Lease
specifying a day not earlier than ten (10) days thereafter, and upon the
giving of such notice the term of this Lease and all right, title and interest
of the Lessee hereunder shall expire as fully and completely on the day
so specified as if that day were the date herein specifically fixed for the
expiration of the term.
(b) If the Lessee defaults in the payment of Base Rent or Additional Rent
and such default continues for five (5) days after the date such payment
is due, a late charge of Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($50.00) or one percent
(1 %) of the amount due, whichever is greater, shall be paid for every day,
in which the sum remains unpaid. If such default continues for ten (10)
days after the date such payment is due, or if Lessee defaults in the prompt
and full performance of any other provision of this Lease, and if such other
default continues for thirty (30) days after notice, or if the leasehold interest
of the Lessee be levied upon under execution or be attached by process
of law, then, and in any such event, the Lessor may, at its election, either
terminate this Lease and/or the Lessee's right to posssession of the Premises,
or, without terminating this Lease, take possession of the Premises, and
endeaver to relet the same. Nothing herein shall relieve the Lessee of
any obligation, including the payment of Base Rent and Additional Rent,
as provided in this Lease.
(c) Upon any termination of this Lease, the Lessee shall surrender possession
and vacate the Premises immediately, and deliver possession thereof to
the Lessor, and hereby grants to the Lessor full and free license to enter
into and upon the Premises in such event with or without process of law
and to repossess the Lessor of the Premises as of the Lessor's former estate
and to expel or remove the Lessee and any others who may be occupying
or within the Premises and to remove any and all property therefrom, using
such force as may be necessary, without being deemed in any manner guilty
-12-
.
.i'f'
of trespass, eviction or forcible entry or detainer, and without relinquishing
the Lessor's right to Base Rent and Additional Rent or any other right given
to the Lessor hereunder or by operation of law.
(d) If the Lessor elects, without terminating the Lease, to endeaver to
relet the Premises, the Lessor may, at the Lessor's option, enter into the
Premises, remove the Lessee's signs and other evidence of tenancy, and
take and hold possession thereof as in Paragraph (c) of this Section provided,
without such entry and possession terminating the Lease or releasing the
Lessee, in whole or in part, from the Lessee's obligation to pay the Base
Rent and Additional Rent hereunder for the full term as hereinafter provided.
Upon and after entry into possession without termination of the Lease,
the Lessor may relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account
of the Lessee to any person, firm or corporation other than the Lessee
for such rent, for such time and upon such terms as the Lessor shall
determine to be reasonable. In any such case, the Lessor may make repairs,
alterations and additions in or to the Premises, and redecorate the same
to the extent deemed by the Lessor necessary or desirable, and the Lessee
shall, upon demand, pay the cost thereof, together with the Lessor's expenses
of the reletting including reasonable attorney fees. If the consideration
collected by the Lessor upon such reletting for the Lessee's account is
not sufficient to pay monthly the full amount of the Base Rent and Additional
Rent reserved in this Lease, together with the cost of repairs, alterations,
additions, redecorating and the Lessor's expenses, the Lessee shall pay
to the Lessor the amount of each monthly deficiency upon demand; and
if the consideration so collected from any such reletting is more than
sufficient to pay the full amount of the Base Rent and Additional Rent
reserved herein, together with the costs and expenses including attorney
fees of the Lessor, the Lessor, at the end of the stated term of this Lease,
shall account to the Lessee.
(e) If the Lessor elects to terminate this Lease, it being understood that
the Lessor may elect to terminate the Lease after and notwithstanding
its election to terminate the Lessee's right to possession as provided herein,
the Lessor shall forthwith upon such termination be entitled to recover
as damages, and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the Base Rent and
Additional Rent provided in this Lease for the residue of the stated term
hereof.
(f) Any and all property which may be removed from the Premises by the
Lessor pursuant to the authority of the Lease or of law, to which the Lessee
is or may be entitled, may be handled, removed or stored by the Lessor
at the risk, cost and expense of the Lessee and the Lessor shall in no event
be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. The
Lessee shall pay the Lessor, upon demand, any and all expenses incurred
in such removal and all storage charges against such property so long as
the same shall be in or under the Lessor's control. Any such property of
the Lessee not removed from the Premises or retaken from storage by
the Lessee within thirty (30) days after the end of the term or of the Lessee's
right to possession of the Premises, however terminated, shall be conclusively
deemed to have been forever abandoned by the Lessee and either may be
retained by Lessor as its property, or may be disposed of in such manner
as Lessor may see fi t.
-13-
.
(g) The Lessee agrees that if it shall at any time fail to make any payment
or perform any other act on its part to be made or performed under this
Lease, the Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to, and after reasonable
notice or demand and without waiving or releasing the Lessee from any
obligation under this Lease, make such payment or perform such other
act to the extent the Lessor may deem desirable, and in connection therewith
to pay expenses and employ legal counsel. The Lessee agrees to pay
reasonable attorney fees if legal action is required to enforce performance
by Lessee of any condition, obligation or requirement hereunder. All sums
so paid by the Lessor and all expenses in connection therewith, together
with interest thereon at 3% over the Wall Street Journal or other equivalent
indexes of average prime rates from the date of payment, shall be deemed
Additional Rent hereunder and payable at the time of any installment of
Additional Rent thereafter becoming due and the Lessor shall have the
same rights and remedies for the non-payment thereof, or of any other
Additional Rent, as in the case of default in the payment of Base Rent.

of Lessor or the holder of any such mortgage execute and deliver to Lessor
within ten (10) days such reasonable instruments that Lessor or such holder

mortgage or of any other action or proceeding for the enforcement thereof,
or of any sale thereunder, this Lease will not be barred, terminated, cut
off or foreclosed nor will the rights and possession of Lessee thereunder
