Item 1.01.   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 21, 2007, comScore, Inc. (the “Company” or “comScore”) entered into a Deed of Lease (“Lease”) with South of Market LLC, (the “Landlord”) to secure office space for the Company’s new corporate headquarters. The following is a brief description of certain terms and conditions of the Lease.
The Lease is for office space located in an office building at 11950 Democracy Drive, Reston, Virginia, which will be used to replace comScore’s current office space at 11465 Sunset Hills Road, Reston, Virginia. The commencement date for occupancy is targeted to be June 1, 2008.
The Lease provides for the rental of approximately 62,203 rentable square feet of space and has an initial term of one hundred twenty (120) calendar months. comScore can extend this term by exercising up to two (2) consecutive five (5) year options.
The monthly base rent during the first year of the Lease is $220,302.29, with annual escalators thereafter up to $275,127.38 per month in the tenth year of the Lease. comScore prepaid the first month’s rent upon signing the lease, but the first ten months of the lease are subject to a scheduled rent abatement. In addition to base rent, commencing on the first anniversary of the Lease, the Lease requires comScore to pay its proportionate share of the amount by which (i) defined operating expenses and real estate taxes paid or incurred by the Landlord exceed (ii) the base year (2008) operating expenses, as defined in the Lease.
Subsequent to the signing of this Lease, comScore expects to deposit with Landlord an unconditional, irrevocable letter of credit in Landlord’s favor in the amount of approximately $2.4 million.
The lease for comScore’s current corporate headquarters is due to expire on July 1, 2008, and the Company has an option to remain as a hold over tenant for up to two months following that date. comScore has an outstanding security deposit in the amount of $750,000 under that lease in the form of a promissory note issued in favor of the landlord.
The foregoing description of the Lease is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Lease which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

DEED OF LEASE
     THIS DEED OF LEASE (“Lease”) is made as of the 21st day of December, 2007 (“Effective Date”), by and between SOUTH OF MARKET LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and COMSCORE, INC, a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”).
RECITALS:
     A. Landlord is the developer and owner of an office building to be known as “Two South of Market”, located at 11950 Democracy Drive, Reston, Virginia, situated on certain real property owned by Landlord (all such real property referred to herein as the “Land”). Said office building shall consist of six (6) stories at and above grade and two (2) stories below grade, totaling approximately 122,955 square feet (referred to herein interchangeably as “Two South of Market” or the “Building”), a parking garage under the building (“Parking Garage”) and a parking structure across the street on an adjacent parcel of land (“Parking Structure”) and other related improvements. The Building and Parking Garage is located within a four (4) office building complex known as “South of Market” (together with the Parking Garage and the Parking Structure, “South of Market Complex”) in the Urban Core of Reston Town Center, Reston, Virginia. The site plan for the Building is attached hereto as Exhibit A-1.
     B. Tenant desires to lease space in the Building from Landlord, and Landlord is willing to lease space in the Building to Tenant, upon the terms, conditions, covenants and agreements set forth herein.
     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending legally to be bound, hereby covenant and agree as set forth below:
ARTICLE I
THE PREMISES
     1.1 Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, for the term and upon the terms, conditions, covenants and agreements herein provided, approximately sixty two thousand two hundred three (62,203) square feet of rentable area, consisting of the entire rentable area on the fourth (4th) floor through sixth (6th) floors, inclusive, of the Building (“Premises”). The location and configuration of the Premises are outlined on Exhibit A-2 attached hereto and made a part hereof.
     1.2 The lease of the Premises includes the right, together with other tenants of the Building and each of their visitors, guests, and invitees, to use the public areas within the Building, but includes no other rights not specifically set forth herein.

     1.3 The rentable area in the Premises and the Building and the South of Market Complex have been calculated in accordance with the American National Standards Institute, Inc./Building Owners and Managers Association standard method of measuring floor area, ANSI/BOMA Z65.1-1996 (“BOMA”). Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, both parties acknowledge and agree that the rentable square footage of the fitness facility referenced in Section 14.6 below has been included in calculating the “core area factor” for the Building. Furthermore, it is understood and agreed that Landlord shall have the continuing right to cause its architect to re-measure the Building provided that such re-measurement is conducted without interfering with Tenant’s use of the Premises, but neither Tenant’s Base Rent nor Tenant’s Proportionate Share (as defined, below) of Operating Expenses may be increased as a consequence of any such re-measurement until the commencement of the next renewal or extension term of the Lease, if any.
ARTICLE II
TERM
     2.1 All of the provisions of this Lease shall be in full force and effect from and after the Effective Date. The term of this Lease (“Lease Term”) shall be for One Hundred Twenty (120) full calendar months, commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, as determined pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, and continuing for a period of One Hundred Twenty (120) full calendar months thereafter, unless such Lease Term shall be terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions hereof or shall be extended in accordance with the provisions of Rider No. 1 to this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Lease Commencement Date shall occur on a day other than the first day of a month, the Lease Term shall commence on such date and continue for the balance of such month and for a period of One Hundred Twenty (120) full calendar months thereafter. The term “Lease Term” shall include any and all renewals and extensions of the term of this Lease.
     2.2 (a) The Lease Commencement Date shall be the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) one hundred sixty (160) days after the date on which Landlord has achieved Minimum Base Building Completion (hereinafter defined) as determined by the Base Building Architect (as defined in Exhibit B) or (ii) the date on which Tenant commences beneficial use of the Premises for regular business operations which shall not be deemed to include access to, or use of, the Premises by Tenant or any contractor of Tenant for any purpose related to the installation of any tenant improvements or any furniture, fixtures or equipment; provided, however, the Lease Commencement Date will not occur prior to June 1, 2008 unless either Tenant commences beneficial use of the Premises as provided and defined above or unless Tenant notifies Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, as to its election to have the Lease Commencement Date occur prior to June 1, 2008. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lease Commencement Date shall not occur prior to the time that Landlord has completed the following: (1) the streetscape elements surrounding the Building are substantially completed to the extent necessary for safe and customary ingress and egress to the Building; and (2) Tenant has access to its share of parking in the Parking Garage and/or the Parking Structure. The term “Minimum Base Building Completion” shall mean (A) Tenant

has elevator access to each floor of the Premises, (B) the Building’s roof is constructed and the Premises and Building are both substantially weather and water tight, and (C) the toilet rooms to be constructed by Landlord on each floor of the Premises, the mechanical systems serving each floor of the Premises, and the base building systems providing HVAC, electricity, plumbing and water to the Premises are operating and in good working order. Any and all Leasehold Work (as defined in Exhibit B), installations and other related activity by Tenant or its contractors in the Premises prior to the Lease Commencement Date shall be coordinated with Landlord and its general contractor. Tenant shall endeavor to assure that, to the greatest commercially reasonable extent possible, any work which it or its contractors is performing in and to the Premises does not interfere with or delay the work being performed by Landlord and its contractors. All terms and conditions of this Lease, including, without limitation, the insurance, release and waiver of liability provisions of Articles XIII and XV hereof, shall apply to and be effective during such period of occupancy by Tenant, except for Tenant’s obligation to pay rent. Landlord agrees to give Tenant updates regarding the estimated date of achieving Minimum Base Building Completion upon the request of Tenant.
          (b) Landlord’s targeted date for achieving Minimum Base Building Completion is February 1, 2008. In the event Landlord fails to achieve Minimum Base Building Completion on or before March 1, 2008 (a “Completion Delay”), then, subject to Force Majeure Event(s) and Tenant Delay pursuant to Subsection 2.2(d) below, Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of Base Rent (which shall be applied during the first months after the Lease Commencement Date until such abatement is fully applied) equal to the Abatement Amount (hereinafter defined). The period from March 1, 2008 (as such date may be extended pursuant to Subsection 2.2(d) below) until the earlier to occur of (i) June 30, 2008 (as such date may be extended pursuant to Subsection 2.2(d) below) or (ii) the date that Landlord delivers the Premises in Minimum Base Building Condition shall be referred to as the “Completion Belay Period”. The “Abatement Amount” shall be calculated as follows:
               (i) One hundred percent (100%) of Tenant’s Foldover Costs (as hereinafter defined) incurred during the portion of the Holdover Delay Period (hereinafter defined) that “corresponds” (as hereinafter defined) to the portion of the Completion Delay Period that occurs from March 1, 2008 until the earlier to occur of (x) Minimum Base Building Completion, or (y) March 31, 2008.
               (ii) One hundred ten percent (110%) of Tenant’s Holdover Costs incurred during the portion of the Holdover Delay Period that corresponds to the portion of the Completion Delay Period that occurs from April 1, 2008 until the earlier to occur of (x) Minimum Base Building Completion, or (y) April 30, 2008.
               (iii) One hundred twenty percent (120%) of Tenant’s Holdover Costs incurred during the portion of the Holdover Delay Period that corresponds to the portion of the

Completion Delay Period that occurs from May 1, 2008 until the earlier to occur of (x) Minimum Base Building Completion, or (y) May 31, 2008.
               (iv) One hundred thirty percent (130%) of Tenant’s Holdover Costs incurred during the portion of the Holdover Delay Period that corresponds to the portion of the Completion Delay Period that occurs from June 1, 2008 until the earlier to occur of (x) Minimum Base Building Completion, or (y) June 30, 2008.
          (c) if Landlord has not achieved Minimum Base Building Completion on or before July 1, 2008, then, as Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy therefor, either Landlord or Tenant (but Tenant shall have such right solely if no Event of Default has occurred under this Lease) shall have the right to terminate this Lease (which termination shall be effective as of July 1, 2008) by delivering written notice of the exercise of such right to the other party. Such right of termination may be exercised by either party only during the period commencing on July 1, 2008 and continuing through July 15, 2008, and if such right is not exercised by July 15, 2008, such right shall thereafter lapse and be of no further force or effect. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to this Section, then Landlord shall pay to Tenant by cheek in good funds the total amount of the Abatement Amount that shall have accrued pursuant to Subsection 2.2(b) to the date of termination of this Lease, and neither party shall have any further obligations or liability hereunder to the other party. In the event Minimum Base Building Completion is not achieved on or before July 1, 2008, and neither party terminates this Lease pursuant to this Subsection 2.2(e), then Landlord shall not be obligated to grant any further abatements or other remedies with respect to Holdover Costs or Completion Delay accruing from and after July 1, 2008, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect.
          (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.2, if Landlord is delayed in achieving Minimum Base Building Completion as a result of Tenant Delay (as defined in Exhibit B) or Force Majeure Event(s) (as defined in Section 25.19), then, for the purposes of determining the Lease Commencement Date and the Tenant’s remedies pursuant to this Section 2.2 (including, without limitation, the commencement of the Holdover Delay Period and/or the Completion Delay Period), all of the dates set forth in this Section 2.2 shall be extended one (1) day for each day of delay caused by such Tenant Delay and/or Force Majeure Event(s). Furthermore, the remedies set forth in this Section 2.2 shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedies for Landlord’s delay in delivering the Premises, and except as expressly provided in this Section 2.2, Landlord shall not have any liability whatsoever to Tenant on account of any delay (including a Completion Delay) in delivering the Premises. In the event that delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant is delayed, regardless of the reasons or causes of such delay, then except as specifically provided in this Section 2.2, this Lease shall not be rendered void or voidable as a result of such delay, and the term of this Lease shall commence on the Lease Commencement Date as determined pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof

parties to execute such declaration shall not affect the validity of the Lease Commencement Date as determined in accordance with this Article.
     2.4 For purposes of this Lease, the term “Lease Year” shall mean a period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months, commencing on the first day of the month in which the Lease Commencement Date occurs and each successive twelve (12) month period, except that if the Lease Commencement Date shall occur on a date other than the first day of a month, then the first Lease Year shall also include the period from the Lease Commencement Date to the first day of the following month.
ARTICLE III
BASE RENT
     3.1 (a) During the Lease Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as annual base rent (used interchangeably as “Base Rent” or “base rent”) for the Premises, without set off, deduction or demand, an amount equal to the product of Forty-two and 50/100 Dollars ($42.50), multiplied by the total number of square feet of rentable area in the Premises as set forth in Section 1.1 (as the same may be modified in accordance with Article XXXI), which amount shall be increased as provided in Section 3.2 below. In addition, Tenant shall pay to Landlord along with each monthly installment of annual base rent an amount equal to the Additional Allowance Rent Payments, as defined in Section 3.5 below, if any. The annual base rent payable hereunder during each Lease Year shall be divided into equal monthly installments and such monthly installments shall be due and payable in advance on the first day of each month during such Lease Year. Concurrently with the signing of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the sum of Two Hundred Twenty Thousand Three Hundred Two and 29/100 Dollars ($220,302.29) (“Advanced Rent”), which sum shall be credited by Landlord toward the first monthly installment of annual base rent due for the first full calendar month falling within the Lease Term, after the Scheduled Rent Abatement (as defined below), if any. In addition, if the Lease Term begins on a date other than on the first day of a month, rent from such date until the first day of the following month shall be prorated on a per diem basis at the base rate payable during the first Lease Year, and such prorated rent shall be payable in advance on the Lease Commencement Date.
          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article III and provided there is no monetary default or material non-monetary Event of Default that has occurred and is continuing hereunder and Tenant (or its permitted successors and/or assigns hereunder) has commenced occupancy of the Premises, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant an abatement of one hundred percent (100%) of the annual base rent payable hereunder for the first ten (10) full calendar months of the Lease Term (the “Scheduled Rent Abatement”). Thereafter, Tenant shall pay the full amount of the equal monthly installments of annual Base Rent due in accordance with the provisions of this Article III. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.1, with respect to any rent abatements, the rent escalation, as required by Section 3.2 below, shall be based on the full and unabated amount of rent payable for the first (1st) Lease Year as set forth in

Section 3.1(a) above. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 3.1(b), Tenant shall have the option, which option shall be exercised by Tenant by giving notice to Landlord on or before thirty (30) days after Landlord has achieved Minimum Base Building Completion, to convert all or any portion of the Scheduled Rent Abatement into increased Improvements Allowance (as defined in Exhibit B). If Tenant timely exercises such option, (i) the dollar amount of the portion of the Schedule Rent Abatement that Tenant elects to convert (the “Converted Portion”) shall be deducted from the Schedule Rent Abatement, and (ii) the dollar amount of the Converted Portion shall be added to the Improvements Allowance.
          (c) If Tenant shall default in its obligations under this Lease and the Lease shall thereafter be terminated by Landlord, then in addition to the other remedies available and damages payable to Landlord for a Tenant default, Landlord shall be entitled to collect as damages from Tenant the unamortized portion of the abated annual base rent (including any Converted Portion) for the period of rent abatement provided for in Section 3.1(b) above.
     3.2 Commencing on the first (1st) day of the second (2nd) Lease Year and on the first day of each and every Lease Year thereafter during the Lease Term, the annual base rent shall be increased as follows:

     3.3 All rent shall be paid to Landlord in legal tender of the United States at P.O. Box 3557, Boston, MA 02241-3557, or to such other address as Landlord may designate from time to time by written notice to Tenant. If Landlord shall at any time accept rent after it shall become

due and payable, such acceptance shall not excuse a delay upon subsequent occasions, or constitute or be construed as 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 be treated as a failure to pay such sum when due; and (b) in addition to all other rights and remedies of Landlord hereunder, Landlord shall be entitled (i) to impose a returned check charge of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) to cover Landlord’s administrative expenses and overhead for processing, and (ii) after the second (2nd) such occurrence during the Lease Term, to require that all future payments be remitted by wire transfer, money order, or cashier’s or certified check.
     3.4 Landlord and Tenant agree that no rental or other payment for the use or occupancy of the 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.
     3.5 If Tenant elects to use all or any portion of the Additional Improvements Allowance (as defined in Section 6(c) of Exhibit B), then Tenant shall (i) give notice to Landlord on or before thirty (30) days after Landlord has achieved Minimum Base Building Completion as to the portion of the Additional Improvements Allowance that Tenant elects to use (and any portion not so designated by such date shall be deemed to be waived), and (ii) pay to Landlord as additional rent the total amount of (i) the Additional Improvements Allowance so accepted by Tenant in accordance with Article IX, and (ii) interest thereon at a fixed annual rate equal to nine percent (9%) per annum, fully amortizing (“Additional Improvements Allowance Rent Payments”). Such Additional Improvements Allowance Rent Payments shall be paid by Tenant in equal monthly installments over a one hundred twenty (120) month period commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, and continuing for one hundred twenty (120) months thereafter. Tenant shall pay to Landlord such monthly installments of Additional Improvements Allowance Rent Payments at the same time and in the same manner as base rent for the Premises is payable hereunder; provided, however, that the Additional Improvements Allowance Rent Payments shall not be subject to the annual escalations that apply to Base Rent pursuant to Section 3.2 of this Lease.

ARTICLE IV
ADDITIONAL RENT
     4.1 Operating Expenses and Real Estate Taxes.
          (a) Commencing twelve (12) months after the Lease Commencement Date, and continuing with each calendar year thereafter during the Lease Term, Tenant shall pay Landlord, as additional rent for the Premises, Tenant’s Proportionate Share (as defined below) of the amount by which operating expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with the management, operation and ownership of the Building (“Operating Expenses”) during any calendar year or portion thereof within the Lease Term exceed a base amount (“Base Year Operating Expenses”) equal to the Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with the management, operation and ownership of the Building during the twelve month period (“Base Year”) commencing January 1, 2008, and ending December 31, 2008; provided, however, in the event that the Lease Commencement Date occurs after September 1, 2008 (except in the event the Lease Commencement Date was delayed after such date as a result of a Force Majeure Event or Tenant Delay, in which event this proviso shall not apply), then the commencement of the twelve (12) month period constituting the Base Year shall commence on January 1, 2009 and end on December 31, 2009. For calculation of Operating Expenses for the Base Year, to the extent any Operating Expense is not based upon a full year of actual billings, Landlord will reasonably, and in good faith, estimate such amount for a full year, subject also to the provisions of Section 4.2 below. The amount of Base Year Operating Expenses shall be subject to adjustment, if indicated, pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.2, below. Tenant’s proportionate share (“Tenant’s Proportionate Share”) of such increases in Operating Expenses shall be that percentage which is equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of square feet of rentable area in the Premises from time to time and the denominator of which is the total number of square feet of rentable area in the Building from time to time (whether or not all such rentable area is rented at any time), excluding the number of square feet devoted to storage space and parking. It is understood that the number comprising such denominator is subject to change because of changes in the use or configuration of space in the Building or the addition of space to the Building or the deletion of space from the Building or in the amount of space leased by tenants who pay by separate meter for their electrical and/or janitorial, cleaning, or other utilities or services so that Tenant actually pays its pro rata share of increased Operating Expenses over the Base Year. Any such change in rentable area shall be determined in accordance with the standard set forth in Section 1.3 of this Lease, and, in any event, that the denominator with respect to Real Estate Taxes (as defined in Section 4.1(c) below) shall be calculated based on the total number of square feet of rentable area in the Building (whether or not all such rentable area is rented at any time), including portions of the Building occupied by retail

tenants but exclusive of the garage and storage areas. Space leased by retail tenants is excluded from the denominator with respect to rubbish removal and with respect to water, electricity and janitorial service to their premises (and expenses for such services to their premises arc excluded from Operating Expenses), but is included in the denominator with respect to common area water, electricity and janitorial, and all other categories of expenses included in Operating Expenses. Tenant acknowledges and understands that with respect to certain of the Operating Expenses set forth herein (e.g., insurance) and Real Estate Taxes, Tenant will be paying its proportionate share of increases in Operating Expenses (or Real Estate Taxes) which are attributable to the Building’s proportionate share of such expenses or taxes relative to the South of Market Complex, with appropriate adjustments to the extent such increases are not attributable to circumstances or conditions present in the Building or otherwise applicable to the South of Market Complex as a whole. The specific obligations of Tenant with respect to such increases shall be governed by the remaining sections of this Article IV. Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall increase or decrease from time to time in the event Tenant expands or contracts the Premises during the Lease Term.
          (b) Operating Expenses shall include, without limitation, the costs and expenses described in Subsection (1) below to the extent incurred in connection with the Building or the South of Market Complex (with respect to Complex Common Expenses), but shall not include the costs and expenses described in Subsection (2) below.
          (1) Included costs and expenses (which shall in all cases be net of any discounts, credits, reimbursements (other than for Operating Expenses) and rebates received by Landlord):

               (v) All other maintenance and repair expenses and supplies (to the extent such supplies are used solely for the maintenance and repair of the Building and the South of Market Complex) which are deducted by Landlord in computing its Federal income tax liability.
               (vi) Amortization over the Approved Period (as defined below), with interest at Landlord’s direct cost of financing with no mark-up or additional fee being added, or, if

          (c) “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean (i) all real estate taxes and other impositions, including general and special assessments, Business, Professional and Occupational license and other similar taxes and assessments if any, which are imposed upon Landlord, in its capacity as owner of the Building, or assessed against the Building or the Land upon which the Building is situated; (ii) any other present or future taxes or governmental charges that are imposed upon Landlord, in its capacity as owner of the Building, or assessed against the Building or the Land upon which the Building (or the South of Market Complex as provided below) is situated, including, but not limited to, any tax levied on or measured by the rents payable by tenants of the Building, which are in lieu of or in substitution for, real estate taxes; (iii) all taxes which are imposed upon Landlord, and which are assessed against the value of any improvements to the Premises made by Tenant or any machinery, equipment, fixtures or other personal property of Tenant used therein; (iv) expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in reviewing, protesting, negotiating or seeking (whether formally or informally) a reduction or abatement of Real Estate Taxes; and (v) all taxes, or similar charges, imposed upon Landlord or the Building as the result of any transportation district created by Fairfax County or any other governmental or quasi-governmental entity. If any of the buildings (or the Land) that may comprise the South of Market Complex are assessed together, then Real Estate Taxes for the Building shall be a fraction thereof the numerator of which is the number of square feet of rentable area in the Building and the denominator of which is the number of square feet of rentable area in the South of Market Complex. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Real Estate Taxes shall not include any income taxes, excess profits taxes, excise taxes, franchise taxes, estate taxes, succession taxes and transfer taxes, except to the extent any of such taxes are in the nature of or are in substitution for or recharacterization or replacement of Real Estate Taxes. If Landlord contests the Real Estate Taxes for any calendar year, and such contest results in an increase in Real Estate Taxes for such calendar year, then Landlord shall have the right to bill Tenant for Tenant’s Proportionate Share of underpayments of Real Estate Taxes thereby resulting. If Landlord receives a refund of any portion of Real Estate Taxes that were included in the Real Estate Taxes paid by Tenant, then Landlord shall credit against the next estimated payment or payments due under this Article IV an amount equal to Tenant’s pro rata share of the refunded taxes, less any expenses that Landlord incurred to obtain the refund or if the Lease Term has expired, Landlord shall refund such amount to Tenant.

     4.2 In the event the average occupancy rate for the entire Building shall be less than one hundred percent (100%) or if any tenant is paying separately for electricity or other utilities or

services for any calendar year, including the Base Year, for purposes of calculating the additional rent payable by Tenant pursuant to this Article IV for each calendar year, the Operating Expenses for such calendar year shall be increased by the amount of additional costs and expenses that Landlord reasonably estimates would have been incurred if the average occupancy rate for the entire Building had been one hundred percent (100%) and as if no tenants had separately paid for electricity or other utilities and services for such calendar year, including the Base Year. It is the intent of this provision to permit Landlord to recover from Tenant its proportionate share of variable Operating Expenses attributable to occupied space in the Building even though the aggregate of such expenses shall have been reduced as a result of vacancies in the Building. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is not the intent of this provision to permit Landlord to recover from Tenant more than Tenant would have been required to pay if the Building was fully occupied.
     4.3 Commencing on January 1, 2009, and at the beginning of each calendar year thereafter during the Lease Term, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a statement setting forth Landlord’s good-faith reasonable estimate of (a) the Operating Expenses that are expected to be incurred during such calendar year, and (b) the computation of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such anticipated Operating Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first day of each month following receipt of such statement during such calendar year (provided, however, that Tenant’s first such payment shall be made one (1) year after the conclusion of the Base Year an amount equal to Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Operating Expenses multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is 1, and the denominator of which is the number of months during such calendar year which fall entirely or partly within the Lease Term and follow the date of the foregoing statement. Within approximately one hundred twenty (120) days, but in no event later than two hundred seventy (270) days, after the expiration of each calendar year falling entirely or partly within the Lease Term, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a statement showing (i) the amount of Base Year Operating Expenses, (ii) the actual Operating Expenses paid or incurred by Landlord during the immediately preceding calendar year, (iii) a computation of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the amount by which the Operating Expenses actually incurred during the preceding calendar year exceeded the Base Year Operating Expenses, and (iv) the aggregate amount of the estimated payments made by Tenant on account thereof. If the aggregate amount of such estimated payments exceeds Tenant’s actual liability for such increases, then Tenant shall deduct the net overpayment from its next estimated payment or payments due under this Article IV for the then current year, or, in the case of the reconciliation for the calendar year in which the Lease Term expires, Landlord shall pay Tenant the net overpayment (after deducting therefrom any amounts then due from Tenant to Landlord) within thirty (30) days. If Tenant’s actual liability for such amounts exceeds the estimated payments made by Tenant on account thereof, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord within thirty (30) days the total amount of such deficiency as additional rent due hereunder.
          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article IV, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay to Landlord any portion of additional rent that would otherwise be due for any calendar year that is attributable to an increase, during each successive three (3) year period of the

Lease Term, in Controllable Operating Expenses (as defined below) in excess of six percent (6%) per year, in the aggregate. “Controllable Operating Expenses” are all Operating Expenses other than Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord which are attributable to (i) Real Estate Taxes, (ii) utilities, (iii) snow removal, (iv) insurance, (v) janitorial services, (vi) security and access control services, (vii) labor and/or personnel costs, and (viii) any other costs and expenses that are outside Landlord’s reasonable control.
     4.4 In the event the Lease Term begins or expires on a day other than the first and last day of a calendar year, respectively, the Operating Expenses for such calendar year shall be apportioned by multiplying the amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share thereof for the full calendar year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during such calendar year falling within the Lease Term, and the denominator of which is 365.
     4.5 All payments required to be made by Tenant pursuant to this Article IV shall be paid to Landlord, without setoff or deduction, in the same manner as annual base rent is payable pursuant to Article III hereof.
     4.6 Tenant’s liability for its proportionate share of Operating Expenses described in Section 4.1 hereof (as adjusted in accordance with Section 4.4 above) for the last calendar year falling entirely or partly within the Lease Term shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term. Similarly, Landlord’s obligation to refund to Tenant the excess, if any, of the amount of Tenant’s estimated payments on account of such Operating Expenses for such last calendar year over Tenant’s actual liability therefor shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term.
     4.7 In the event that Tenant believes that the amounts paid by Tenant to Landlord relating to Operating Expenses during any calendar year falling within the Lease Term exceeded the amounts to which Landlord was entitled to hereunder and Tenant generally describes the alleged discrepancy in writing to Landlord, or for any or no reason with respect to the Base Year, then (a) a regular employee of Tenant or (b) an independent, certified public accountant designated by Tenant (which independent, certified public accountant shall be employed by one of the nationally recognized full-service accounting firms or one of their successors or affiliates, which shall not be hired by Tenant on a contingency basis) shall have the right, during regular business hours and after giving ten (10) business days’ advance written notice to Landlord, to inspect and complete an audit of Landlord’s books and records relating to such Operating Expenses for a period of two (2) years following the receipt by Tenant of the statement required of Landlord pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof for such calendar year. If such audit or audited statement shows that the amounts paid by Tenant to Landlord on account of such charges exceeded the amounts to which Landlord was entitled hereunder, or that Tenant is entitled to a credit with respect to any such charges, Landlord shall promptly refund to Tenant the amount of such excess or the amount of such credit, as the case may be. Similarly, if it is determined that the amounts paid by Tenant to Landlord on account of Operating Expenses were less than the amounts to which Landlord was entitled hereunder, then Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord, as additional rent hereunder, the amount of such deficiency

less the costs incurred by Tenant in conducting such audit. Tenant shall (and shall cause its agents to) keep the results of such audit or audited statement strictly confidential, except as otherwise required by law or court order. All costs and expenses of any such audit shall be paid by Tenant, except that if such audit shows that the aggregate amount of operating charges was overstated by Landlord by more than four percent (4%), Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by Tenant in such audit, up to a maximum of the lesser of (a) four thousand dollars ($4,000) and (b) the amount of the overstatement of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses.
ARTICLE V
SECURITY DEPOSIT
     5.1 (a) Simultaneously with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, Tenant shall post a Letter of Credit (as defined below) in an amount equal to Eight Hundred Eighty-One Thousand Two Hundred Nine and 16/100th Dollars ($881,209.16), as a security deposit (hereinafter referred to as “security deposit” or “Security Deposit”), which sum shall be in addition to the Advanced Rent paid by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof If Tenant elects to accept any Additional Allowance pursuant to (and as defined in) Exhibit B hereof, then, prior to any disbursement of the Additional Allowance, the Security Deposit shall be increased by adding thereto a Letter of Credit in an amount (“Additional Allowance Deposit”) equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Additional Allowance so elected. Among other things, Landlord has assigned (or intends to assign) to the holder of the mortgage now or hereafter encumbering the Building, all of Landlord’s interest in this Lease, including, without limitation, the Security Deposit. If the Security Deposit is increased as set forth above pertaining to the Additional Improvement Allowance, then Tenant shall immediately deposit with Landlord an amount equal to the portion of the increased amount that would have been paid to Landlord as of such time if the increased amount had been part of the Security Deposit as of the date of this Lease, and any subsequent installments of the Security Deposit shall be adjusted accordingly.
          (b) The Security Deposit shall be security for the performance by Tenant of all of Tenant’s obligations, covenants, conditions and agreements under this Lease. Within ninety (90) days after the expiration of the Lease Term, and provided Tenant has vacated the Premises and an Event of Default has not occurred and is continuing hereunder, Landlord shall return the Security Deposit to Tenant, less such portion thereof as Landlord shall have reasonably appropriated to satisfy any Event of Default by Tenant hereunder and such portion as Landlord reasonably believes in good faith will be payable by Tenant in connection with the reconciliation of Operating Expenses for the calendar year in which the Lease Term expires. In the event of any Event of Default by Tenant hereunder, Landlord shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to use, apply or retain all or any portion of the Security Deposit for (i) the payment of any annual base rent or additional rent or any other sum as to which Tenant is in default, or (ii) other than the payment of annual base rent or additional rent or any other sum pursuant to clause (i) herein, the payment of any amount Landlord reasonably may spend or become obligated to spend or for the compensation of Landlord

for any losses incurred, by reason of Tenant’s Event of Default hereunder, including, but not limited to, Tenant’s failure to satisfy its obligations under Section 8.2 hereof, or any damage or deficiency arising in connection with the reletting of the Premises. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, within ten (10) business days after written notice delivered to Tenant of such use or application, which notice expressly instructs Tenant to replenish the amount of the Security Deposit so appropriated by Landlord, Tenant shall restore the Security Deposit by providing a replacement or additional Letter of Credit such that Landlord is holding one or more Letters of Credit in the aggregate amount of the Security Deposit required hereunder, and Tenant’s failure to do so shall constitute an Event of Default under this Lease. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to deposit the Security Deposit with the holder of any mortgage (as defined in Section 21.1) if and to the extent required by said holder; provided, however, that such holder shall hold the Security Deposit subject to Tenant’s rights with respect to the Security Deposit set forth herein including the conditional obligation to return all or a portion of such Security Deposit from time to time during and after the Lease Term as provided herein.
          (c) The Security Deposit shall be in the form of one or more unconditional, irrevocable letters of credit (each, a “Letter of Credit”), subject to the following terms and conditions. Such Letter of Credit shall be (i) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F or otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord in its sole discretion; (ii) at all times in the amount of the Security Deposit, and shall permit multiple draws; (iii) issued by a commercial bank reasonably acceptable to Landlord from time to time and located in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area; (iv) made payable to, and expressly transferable and assignable at no charge by, the owner from time to time of the Building or, at Landlord’s option, the holder of any mortgage (which transfer/assignment shall be conditioned only upon the execution of a written document in connection therewith; provided, however, that in the event the issuing bank of the Letter of Credit charges a fee for a transfer and/or assignment, any and all such fees, for not more than one (1) transfer/assignment every two (2) years, shall be payable by Tenant and any and all such fees for any additional transfers shall be paid by Landlord or such transferee/assignee, from their own funds); (v) payable at sight or by facsimile upon presentation of a simple sight draft at any Washington, D.C. metropolitan area branch office of the issuing bank of the Letter of Credit; (vi) of a term not less than one year; and (vii) at least thirty (30) days prior to the then-current expiration date of such Letter of Credit, renewed (or automatically and unconditionally extended) from time to time through the ninetieth (90th) day after the expiration of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, any cure or grace periods set forth in this Lease shall not apply to any of the foregoing, and, specifically, if Tenant fails to timely comply with the requirements of Subsection (iv) and/or (vii) above, then Landlord shall have the right to immediately draw upon the Letter of Credit without notice to Tenant and apply the proceeds to the Security Deposit. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued by a commercial bank that has a credit rating with respect to certificates of deposit, short term deposits or commercial paper of at least P-2 (or equivalent) by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc., or at least A-2 (or equivalent) by Standard & Poor’s Corporation, and the Letter of Credit shall be otherwise acceptable to Landlord in its sole reasonable discretion. If the issuer’s credit rating is reduced below P-2 (or equivalent) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or

below A-2 (or equivalent) by Standard & Poor’s Corporation, or if the financial condition of such issuer changes in any other materially adverse way, then Landlord shall have the right to require that Tenant obtain from a different issuer a substitute letter of credit that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Section, and Tenant’s failure to obtain such substitute letter of credit within ten (10) business days following Landlord’s written demand therefor (with no other notice or cure or grace period being applicable thereto, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary) shall entitle Landlord to immediately draw upon the then existing Letter of Credit in whole or in part, without notice to Tenant. In the event the issuer of any Letter of Credit held by Landlord is placed into receivership or conservatorship by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any successor or similar entity, then, effective as of the date such receivership or conservatorship occurs, said Letter of Credit shall be deemed to not meet the requirements of this Section, and, within ten (10) business days thereof, Tenant shall replace such Letter of Credit with another Letter of Credit that meets the requirements of this Article V (and Tenant’s failure to do so shall, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, constitute an Event of Default for which there shall be no notice or grace or cure periods being applicable thereto other than the aforesaid ten (10) business day period). Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any and all costs incurred with the review of any replacement Letter of Credit (including without limitation Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees) not to exceed $500.00, which replacement is required pursuant to this Section or is otherwise requested by Tenant. Any failure or refusal of the issuer to honor the Letter of Credit shall be at Tenant’s sole risk and shall not relieve Tenant of its obligations hereunder with respect to the Security Deposit.
          (d) Provided that, as of the Reduction Date (as defined below) no monetary default or material non-monetary Event of Default has occurred and then continuing under this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to reduce the security deposit by the amount set forth below with respect to each Reduction Date:

In the event Tenant is not entitled to a reduction of the Security Deposit because an Event of Default had occurred and was continuing as of the applicable Reduction Date, then Tenant shall be entitled to the applicable reduction in the Security Deposit at such time as (i) the applicable Event of Default has been cured, and (ii) there has been no monetary or material non-monetary Event of Default under this Lease for a period of twelve (12) consecutive months. In addition, in the event Tenant is required to provide an Additional Allowance Deposit, then, as of the Reduction Dates set forth above, and upon each anniversary of the Lease Commencement Date thereafter, the Additional Allowance Deposit shall be reduced to an amount equal to the present value of the remaining Additional Allowance Rent Payments, discounted at nine percent (9%) per annum. If all of the aforesaid conditions are met, upon Tenant’s written request, Landlord shall notify the issuer of the Letter of Credit that the Letter of Credit may be reduced in the amount of the reduction so authorized, and the security deposit shall be so reduced in accordance with this Section 5.1(d). Such reduction shall occur by means of delivery by Tenant to Landlord of an amendment to the Letter of Credit reducing the amount thereof as directed by Landlord, or a substitute Letter of Credit in such amount and in strict conformity with the terms of this Article V, in which latter event, the original Letter of Credit will be returned to Tenant. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Letter of Credit be reduced unless the issuing bank receives prior written notice from Landlord, authorizing a reduction by a certain amount (it being understood that in no event shall the reduction exceed the amount so authorized by Landlord); provided that Landlord shall in good faith provide the applicable authorization if Tenant is entitled to a reduction in the Security Deposit pursuant to the terms hereof. In addition, in no event shall the Security Deposit be reduced to an amount less than $220,302.29 plus the then required amount of the Additional Allowance Deposit.
     5.2 In the event of the sale or transfer of Landlord’s interest in the Building, Landlord shall transfer the Security Deposit to the purchaser or assignee. If Landlord transfers the Security Deposit to a purchaser or assignee, Tenant shall look only to such purchaser or assignee for the return of the Security Deposit, and Landlord shall thereupon be released from all liability to Tenant for the return of the Security Deposit to the extent Landlord has transferred the Security Deposit to such purchaser or assignee. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole expense except as set forth in Section 5.1(b) hereof, within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s request therefor, have the Letter of Credit amended or reissued by the issuing bank to indicate the new beneficiary.
     5.3 Tenant hereby acknowledges that Tenant will not look to the holder of any mortgage (as defined in Section 21.1) encumbering the Building for return of the Security Deposit if such holder, or its successors or assigns, shall succeed to the ownership of the Building, whether by foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof; except if and to the extent the Security Deposit is actually transferred to such holder; provided, however, Landlord shall be released from liability therefor only to the extent the Security Deposit is actually transferred to such holder or successor-in-interest.

It is expressly understood that if any change in the use of the Premises by Tenant, or any alterations to the Premises by Tenant, or any future law, ordinance, regulation or order requires a new or additional permit from, or approval by, any governmental agency having jurisdiction over the Building and/or the Premises, such permit or approval shall be obtained by Tenant on its behalf and at its sole expense. Further, Tenant shall comply with all applicable Legal Requirements which shall impose a duty on Landlord or Tenant relating to or as a result of the use or occupancy of the Premises. Tenant shall pay all fines, penalties and damages that are not being or are no longer subject to being contested that are be imposed on Landlord or Tenant because of Tenant’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.1.
     6.2 Tenant shall pay any business, rent or other taxes that are now or hereafter levied upon Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, the conduct of Tenant’s business at the Premises, or Tenant’s equipment, fixtures or personal property. In the event that any such taxes are enacted, changed or altered so that any of such taxes are levied against Landlord in substitution for or in addition to them being levied directly against Tenant, or the mode of collection of such taxes is changed so that Landlord is responsible for collection or payment of such taxes, Tenant shall pay any and all such taxes to Landlord upon written demand from Landlord.
     6.3 Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Materials (as defined below) to be generated, used, released, stored or disposed of in or about the South of Market Complex, provided that Tenant may use and store in accordance with all Environmental Laws reasonable quantities of standard cleaning and office materials and may generate and arrange for the proper disposal of waste materials as may be reasonably necessary for Tenant to conduct normal general office use operations in the Premises.

Notwithstanding any termination of this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord, its employees and agents harmless from and against any damage, injury, loss, liability, charge, demand or claim based on or arising out of the presence or removal of, or failure to remove, Hazardous Materials generated, used, released, stored or disposed of by Tenant or any Invitee (as defined in Section 8.2 below) in or about the South of Market Complex, whether before or after Lease Commencement Date. In addition, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt verbal and follow-up written notice following Tenant’s becoming aware of any actual or threatened Environmental Default (as defined below), which Environmental Default Tenant shall cure in accordance with all Environmental Laws and to the satisfaction of Landlord and only after Tenant has obtained Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding any termination of this Lease, Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant, its employees and agents harmless from and against any damage, injury, loss, liability, charge, demand or claim based on or arising from and against any damage, injury, loss, liability, charge, demand or claim based on or arising out of the presence or removal of, or failure to remove, hazardous Materials other than those generated, used, released, stored or disposed of by Tenant or any Invitee in or about the South of Market Complex, whether before of after the Lease Commencement Date.

violation of an Environmental Law; a release, spill or accidental discharge of a Hazardous Material on or from the Premises, the Land or the South of Market Complex; an environmental condition requiring responsive action; or an imminent and substantial endangerment. Upon any Environmental Default, in addition to all other rights available to Landlord under this Lease, at law or in equity, Landlord shall have the right but not the obligation to enter the Premises, to supervise and approve any actions taken by Tenant to address the Environmental Default, and, if Tenant fails to promptly address same to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction, to perform, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, any Lawful action necessary to address same. If any lender or duly authorized governmental agency shall require testing to ascertain whether an Environmental Default is pending or threatened, then Tenant shall pay the reasonable costs therefor as additional rent. Promptly upon Landlord’s reasonable request, Tenant shall execute from time to time affidavits, representations or similar documents concerning Tenant’s best knowledge and belief regarding the presence of Hazardous Materials at or in the Premises.
     6.4 Landlord represents that, except as specified in that certain Phase I Environmental Site Assessment prepared by ECS Mid-Atlantic, LLC, dated January 12, 1998 (“Environmental Report”), to its actual knowledge as of the date of this Lease, based solely and exclusively on the Environmental Report and no further or additional inspection or inquiry having been made, neither the Premises, nor the Land (collectively, “Property”) contain any Hazardous Materials nor have any Hazardous Materials been used in the construction or development of the Property, nor will the use of any such materials knowingly be permitted by Landlord. In the event Landlord is advised, or it shall come to Landlord’s attention, that Hazardous Materials exist in the Property (i.e., in the Building or in, on, or about the Land), if mandated by any Legal Requirement, Landlord shall take all reasonable steps necessary to promptly remove, at Landlord’s expense, all such Hazardous Materials, and in doing so, Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts not to materially interfere with the conduct of Tenant’s business; provided, however, that Landlord shall remove, at Tenant’s expense, any Hazardous Materials from the Premises which Tenant, its employees, agents, subcontractors or subtenants shall have introduced or otherwise brought in, on or about the Premises.
ARTICLE VII
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
     7.1 (a) Tenant shall not have the right to assign this Lease without first obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; provided, however, that it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent if a monetary or material non-monetary Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder which is not fully cured on or before the effective date of such assignment, or if the nature of the activities to be conducted by such proposed assignee would materially and adversely affect the other tenants of the Building or would impair the reputation of the Building as a first-class office building, or that the financial history or credit rating of the proposed assignee is such that such assignee cannot reasonably be expected to meet the financial obligations of the assignment and this Lease with appropriate financial margins (taking into account the financial condition of Tenant and the fact that

Tenant is not released from liability hereunder) or that the character of the business to be conducted or the proposed use of the Premises by the proposed assignee (i) is likely to materially increase Operating Expenses for the Building beyond that which Landlord incurs prior to such proposed assignment unless Tenant agrees to pay the net present value of the total increase in the Operating Expenses over the remaining Lease Term up front and Landlord agrees to accept such payment; (ii) is likely to materially increase the burden on elevators or other Building systems or equipment over the burden prior to such proposed assignment; (iii) violates any provisions or restrictions contained herein relating to the use or occupancy of the Premises; or (iv) is likely to violate any use or occupancy restrictions contained in the Lease. Tenant shall give Landlord advance written notice of the party to whom it proposes to assign, along with sufficient information about the proposed assignee to enable Landlord to make its determination. Within twenty (20) days after receipt of the same, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing whether or not Landlord is granting its consent with respect to the proposed assignee. In the event Landlord does not respond within such twenty (20) day period, then Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord a second notice requesting approval with bold print indicating that a failure to respond may result in a deemed approval, and if Landlord fails to respond within five (5) business days after receiving such second notice, then such assignment proposal (including the proposed assignee in the context of such proposal) shall be deemed to be approved by Landlord.
          (b) In the event of any assignment of the Lease, Tenant shall remain fully liable as a primary obligor and principal for Tenant’s obligations and responsibilities under the Lease, including without limitation, the payment of all rent and other charges required hereunder and the performance of all conditions and obligations to be performed under the Lease.
     7.2 (a) Tenant shall have the right to sublease all or any portion of the Premises with Landlord’s approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned; provided, however, it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent if it determines that (1) the character of the proposed subtenant or the nature of the activities to be conducted by the proposed subtenant would adversely affect the other tenants of the Building or would impair the reputation of the Building as a first-class office building, (2) the financial history or credit rating of the proposed subtenant is unacceptable to Landlord in the exercise of Landlord’s reasonable discretion taking into account the terms of this Lease, (3) the character of the subtenant’s business to be conducted in the Premises or the proposed use of the Premises (i) is likely to materially increase Operating Expenses (unless Tenant and subtenant agree to be responsible for any such increase in Operating Expenses); (ii) is likely to materially increase the burden on elevators or other Building systems (unless Tenant and subtenant agree to be responsible for this increase, whether financial or otherwise, and such terms are agreeable to Landlord, in its sole but reasonable discretion); (iii) is likely to violate any use or occupancy restriction contained in the Lease. Tenant shall give Landlord at least thirty (30) business days advance written notice of the party it intends to sublet to, along with sufficient information about the proposed subtenant to enable Landlord to make a determination. In such ease, within twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice and sufficient information about the proposed subtenant to enable Landlord to make a determination, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing

whether or not Landlord is granting its approval of the proposed sublessee. In the event Landlord does not respond within such twenty (20) day period, then Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord a second notice requesting approval with bold print indicating that a failure to respond may result in a deemed approval, and if Landlord fails to respond within five (5) business days after receiving such second notice, then such sublease proposal (including the proposed sublessee in the context of such proposal) shall be deemed to be approved by Landlord.
          (b) Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of its intent to market for sublease to any entity which is not an Affiliate of Tenant or a Parent of Tenant either (i) any portion of the Premises such that, when aggregated with all other space previously sublet, would constitute more than fifty percent (50%) of the initial configuration of the Premises on the Lease Commencement Date, or (ii) any sublease for seventy-five percent (75%) or more of the remainder of the Lease Term. Such notice shall specify the portion of the Premises proposed to be sublet and the date such portion is to be made available for subleasing and the targeted duration of such sublease(s). In such event, Landlord shall have the right to retake possession of the portion of the Premises proposed to be sublet (the “Proposed Sublet Space”). Within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing whether or not Landlord will retake possession of the Proposed Sublet Space and thereby delete such portion from the Premises being leased to Tenant hereunder. Failure by Landlord to provide notice to Tenant within said thirty (30) day period of its election to retake the Proposed Sublet Space shall be deemed Landlord’s election not to retake such space. Tenant shall have the right to withdraw its request to sublease the Proposed Sublet Space, by providing notice to Landlord within five (5) business days of its receipt of Landlord’s election to retake the Proposed Sublet Space, in which ease Tenant’s request shall be of no force and effect as if it had never been made and the Proposed Sublet Space shall remain a part of the Premises and subject to the terms of this Lease. If Landlord elects to retake possession of the Proposed Sublet Space and Tenant does not elect to withdraw its request to sublease the Proposed Sublet Space, then (i) Landlord shall retake possession of such portion of the Proposed Sublet Space, (ii) Tenant’s obligation to pay rent for such portion shall cease on such date, and (iii) Landlord and Tenant shall promptly execute an amendment to the Lease setting forth the new square footage of the reduced premises to be occupied by Tenant. Thereafter, Tenant shall not have any further rights of any kind, including any rights of renewal, in or to the portion of the Premises so retaken. If Landlord elects to recapture said space, Landlord shall be solely responsible for the demising of the Proposed Sublet Space. If Landlord elects not to retake the Proposed Sublet Space, Tenant shall comply with the provisions of Subsections (c) and (d) below with respect to any proposed sublease of such portion of the Premises.
          (c) Tenant’s right to sublease the Proposed Sublet Space shall expire twelve (12) months after the date Landlord gave notice of its election not to recapture the Proposed Sublet Space (or failed timely to make such election) pursuant to subsection (b) above. Thereafter, Tenant shall have no right to sublease the portion of the Premises described in the notice furnished pursuant to subsection (b), unless Tenant shall have again complied with the procedures set forth in Section 7.2(b).

          (d) Provided no monetary or material non-monetary Event of Default exists under this Lease, Tenant shall be entitled to retain fifty percent (50%) of any net profit derived from subletting the Premises or any part thereof, after first deducting (i) reasonable advertising costs, brokerage commissions, improvement allowances and other reasonable costs associated with the subletting of the Premises, and (ii) Tenant’s Vacancy Cost (as defined below). For any period during which a monetary or material non-monetary Event of Default exists under this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to 100% of the rent due from any subtenant of Tenant and Tenant shall provide written notice to each subtenant to pay said rent directly to Landlord. Landlord shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, and upon reasonable notice, to inspect and audit Tenant’s books and records relating to any sublease and expenses incurred by Tenant in connection therewith. Upon Landlord advising Tenant of any potential adverse effect of any proposed sublease or assignment on the real estate investment trust qualification tests applicable to Landlord and its affiliates or unrelated business taxable income concerns of its lender, and proposing one or more solutions to such effect, Tenant will exercise reasonable efforts to structure any such proposed sublease or assignment so that the portion of the excess rents that become payable to Landlord will not have such adverse effect, and if Tenant is unable so to structure any proposed sublease or assignment, then Landlord shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to withhold its consent to the proposed sublease or assignment or to terminate this Lease with respect to the Proposed Sublet Space as provided in this Section. “Tenant’s Vacancy Cost” shall mean the Base Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease commencing on the date that Tenant vacates and offers to the market for sublease that portion of the Premises intended to be sublet (and provided that Landlord has not been precluded from inspecting the vacated portion of the Premises) and continuing through the date on which Tenant is entitled to receive base rent from a subtenant for that portion of the Premises intended to be sublet. Tenant shall provide Landlord with prior written notice of its intent to vacate and sublet a portion of the Premises, and Landlord shall be entitled to inspect the vacated portion of the Premises to verify that Tenant has vacated such portion.
     7.3 The consent by Landlord to any assignment or subletting shall not be construed as a waiver or release of Tenant from any and all liability for the performance of all covenants and obligations to be performed by Tenant under this Lease, nor shall the collection or acceptance of rent from any assignee, transferee or subtenant constitute a waiver or release of Tenant from any of its liabilities or obligations under this Lease, except for the payment of rent to the extent actually received by Landlord from such parties. Landlord’s consent to any assignment or subletting shall not be construed as relieving Tenant from the obligation of complying with the provisions of Sections 7.1 or 7.2 hereof, as applicable, with respect to any subsequent assignment or subletting. For any period during which Tenant is in default hereunder, Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord the rent due from any subtenant of Tenant and hereby authorizes each subtenant to pay said rent directly to Landlord. Tenant further agrees to submit any and all instruments of assignment and sublease to Landlord for Landlord’s prior written approval as to form and substance, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, but which instruments shall provide, as an express condition precedent to Landlord’s prior approval, that any sublessee or assignee agree to remain jointly and severally liable to Landlord for all obligations imposed by any such agreement of

assignment or sublease. If Landlord is required to review more than three (3) subleases or assignments in any Lease Year, then commencing with the fourth (4th) such sublease or assignment, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all reasonable, out-of-pocket third-party costs incurred by Landlord in connection with any request by Tenant to sublease all or any portion of the Premises or to assign this Lease.
     7.4 (a) Notwithstanding the above restrictions on subletting and assignments, Landlord’s consent shall not be required with respect to any assignment or subletting to an “Affiliate of Tenant” (as hereinafter defined) or a “Parent of Tenant” (as hereinafter defined), or resulting from the merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization of Tenant, or the sale or transfer of substantially all of the capital stock, partnership interests, membership interests or other ownership interests of Tenant or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, provided (i) that such assignee or sublessee or Tenant shall have a total creditworthiness (e.g., assets and capitalization) and net worth (which shall be determined on a pro forma basis using generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and using the most recent financial statements) greater than or equal to Tenant as of the Effective Date, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, (ii) that such assignee or sublessee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Lease and to assume all of the obligations and liabilities of Tenant under the Lease, (iii) that such assignee or sublessee shall conduct a business which is a permitted use under the terms of the Lease, (iv) that Tenant provides Landlord with prior written notice of its intent to assign or sublease all or a portion of the Premises not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date of such assignment or sublet, (v) that the character of such person or entity and the nature of its activities on the Premises and in the Building will not adversely affect other tenants in the Building or impair the reputation of the Building as a first-class office building, and (vi) that the assignment or sublease with such person or entity is not a so-called “sham” transaction intended by Tenant to circumvent the provisions of this Article VII.
          (b) For purposes of this Section 7.4 an “Affiliate of Tenant” shall mean any corporation, limited liability company, association, trust or partnership (i) which Controls (as herein defined) Tenant or (ii) which is under the Control of Tenant through stock, membership, or partnership interest ownership or otherwise or (iii) which is under common Control with Tenant. For the purposes hereof, a “Parent of Tenant” shall mean any corporation, limited liability company, association, trust or partnership (i) which Controls Tenant or (ii) which owns more than fifty percent (50%) of the issued and outstanding voting interests of Tenant. The terms “Control” or “Controls” shall mean the power directly or indirectly to influence the direction, management or policies of Tenant or such other entity.
          (c) In the event of any such assignment or subletting pursuant to this Section 7.4, Tenant shall remain fully liable as a primary obligor and principal for Tenant’s obligations and responsibilities under this Lease, including without limitation, the payment of all rent and other charges required hereunder and the performance of all conditions and obligations to be performed under this Lease.

     7.5 No part of the rent payable under this Lease shall be based in whole or in part on the income or profits derived from the Premises. If the holder of any Mortgage or any lender providing financing in connection with all or any portion of the Premises, the Land and/or the Building succeeds to Landlord’s interests under this Lease and such holder and/or lender’s counsel advises Landlord that all or any portion of the rent payable under this Lease is or may be deemed to be unrelated business income within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code or regulations issued thereunder, such holder and/or lender may elect to amend unilaterally the calculation of rent so that none of the rent payable to such holder and/or lender under this Lease will constitute unrelated business income provided that the amendment shall not increase Tenant’s payment obligations or other liability under this Lease, reduce Landlord’s obligations under this Lease, or diminish or negatively impact Tenant’s right to use the Premises in accordance with the provisions hereof. At such holder’s or lender’s request, Tenant shall execute any document such holder and/or lender reasonably deems necessary to effect such amendment of this Lease. Any sublease of all or any portion of the Premises shall include the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.5.
ARTICLE VIII
TENANT’S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS

materialmen’s lien within the ten (10) business day period set forth above, Landlord may, at its option, discharge such lien and treat the cost thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith) as additional rent payable with the next monthly installment of annual base rent falling due; it being expressly agreed that such discharge by Landlord shall not be deemed to waive or release the default of Tenant in not discharging such lien. It is understood and agreed that any improvements to the Premises shall be conducted on behalf of Tenant and not on behalf of Landlord, and that Tenant shall be deemed the “owner” of such improvements (and not the agent of Landlord) for purposes of the application of Commonwealth of Virginia lien laws.

Portions of the Premises visible to the public shall maintain a relatively uniform appearance with the rest of the Building.

          (g) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall be the owner of any additions, alterations and improvements in the Premises or the Building to the extent paid for by Landlord without reimbursement by Tenant.
     9.4 Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all expenses, liens, claims, liabilities and damages based on or arising, directly or indirectly, by reason of the making of any improvements to the Premises by Tenant, or its contractors, agents or employees. If any improvements are made without the prior written consent of Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to remove and correct such improvements and restore the Premises to their condition immediately prior thereto, and Tenant shall be liable for all actual and reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith.

TENANT’S EQUIPMENT
     11.1 Tenant will not install or operate in the Premises any electrically operated equipment or machinery that operates on greater than 110/208 volt power or exceeds normal electrical usage without first obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not, in any event, be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed so long as there is sufficient power for other tenants in the Building in Landlord’s reasonable discretion. Landlord may condition such consent upon the payment by Tenant of additional rent in compensation for the excess consumption of electricity or other utilities and for the cost of any separate metering or sub-metering of any such equipment that is required and the cost of any additional wiring or apparatus that may be occasioned by the operation of such equipment or machinery. Tenant shall not install any equipment of any type or nature that will or may necessitate any changes, replacements or additions to, or in the use of, the water system, heating system, plumbing system, air-conditioning system or electrical system of the Premises or the Building, without first obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, and Landlord may require that any such additional equipment (including supplemental HVAC systems) shall be sub-metered at Tenant’s cost. Business machines and mechanical equipment belonging to Tenant which cause noise or vibration that may be transmitted to the structure of the Building or to any space therein to such a degree as to be objectionable to Landlord or to any tenant in the Building shall be installed and maintained by Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, on vibration eliminators or other devices sufficient to reduce such noise and vibration to a level satisfactory to Landlord.

Landlord may install checkmeters to electrical circuits serving Tenant’s equipment to verify that Tenant is not consuming excessive electricity. 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, without limitation, 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.

INSURANCE
     13.1 Tenant shall not conduct or permit to be conducted any activity, or place any equipment in or about the Premises or the Building which will in any way increase the rate of fire insurance or other insurance on the Building in more than a de minimis manner.

Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such amount upon written demand from Landlord and such sum shall be considered additional rent payable hereunder.

No such policy shall contain any deductible provision except as otherwise approved in writing by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Landlord reserves the right from time to time to require Tenant to obtain higher minimum amounts of insurance. Tenant shall deliver a certificate of all such insurance and receipts evidencing payment there for (and, upon request, but not more often than once in any twelve (12) month period unless either (i) an Event of Default has occurred, or (ii) there is a claim or potential claim under such policies), copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements and declarations) to Landlord not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Lease Commencement Date and at least annually thereafter.

business day in the ease of desired service on a legal holiday) in writing, via telephone, or via email, 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Saturday (except legal holidays (as set forth in Exhibit G). There will be no normal hours of operation of the Building on Sundays or legal holidays as set forth in Exhibit G, and Landlord shall not be obligated to maintain or operate the Building at such times unless special arrangements are made by Tenant. In the event Tenant requires after-hours HVAC service on regular business days (i.e. service after 7:00 p.m. in the evening), Tenant shall give notice to Landlord on or before 5:00 p.m. of such business day. The services and utilities required to be furnished by Landlord, other than electricity and water, will be provided only during the normal hours of operation of the Building, except as otherwise specified herein. It is agreed that if Tenant requires HVAC beyond the normal hours of operation set forth herein, Landlord will furnish such HVAC, provided Tenant gives Landlord’s agent sufficient advance notice of such requirement and Tenant agrees to pay for the cost of such overtime HVAC in accordance with Landlord’s then current schedule of costs and assessments for such HVAC. Landlord agrees to provide an access-control system in the Building comparable to the system in Class A office and retail buildings in the Market Area, which shall permit Tenant to have access to the Premises on a 24-hour, seven-days-a-week basis (except in the event of emergency). Landlord shall, at its cost, provide an initial set of access cards to the Building in an amount equal to an aggregate number not to exceed four (4) access cards for each one thousand (1,000) square feet of above grade rentable area in the Premises (excluding any storage space leased by Tenant); provided, however, that any replacement or additional cards requested by Tenant after the Lease Commencement Date shall be provided by Landlord and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable cost therefor.
     14.2 Subject to the terms of Section 14.3 below, it is understood and agreed that Landlord shall not have any liability to Tenant whatsoever as a result of Landlord’s failure or inability to furnish any of the utilities or services required to be furnished by Landlord hereunder, whether resulting from breakdown, removal from service for maintenance or repairs, strikes, scarcity of labor or materials, acts of God, governmental requirements, or any other cause whatsoever. It is further agreed that, subject to the terms of Section 14.3 below, any such failure or inability to furnish the utilities or services required hereunder shall not be considered an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the Premises, and shall not entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease or to an abatement of any rent payable hereunder.
     14.3 (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14.2 to the contrary, (i) if any interruption of utilities or services that is caused by Landlord’s (or its agent’s or employee’s) negligence or willful misconduct shall continue for more than five (5) consecutive business days, or (ii) if any interruption of utilities or services that does not result from Landlord’s (or its agent’s or employee’s) negligence or willful misconduct nor from Tenant’s (or its agents’ or employees’) negligence or willful misconduct shall continue for more than ten (10) consecutive business days, and in either of the foregoing instances such interruption shall render greater than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Premises untenantable by Tenant, and if Tenant does not in fact use or occupy such portion of the Premises, then as Tenants sole and exclusive remedy therefor all base rent and additional rent payable hereunder with respect to such untenantable portion of the Premises shall be

abated for the period beginning as of the sixth (6th) consecutive business day or the eleventh (11th) consecutive business day, respectively, of such interruption and continuing until the Premises or such portion thereof is rendered tenantable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant’s temporary entry into and use of the Premises in a manner limited by the interrupted utilities or services shall not be deemed use or occupancy of the Premises. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if any interruption of utilities or services that renders all or substantially all of the Premises substantially untenantable, is not fully corrected or restored within two hundred forty-four (244) consecutive days, or in the event that such utilities or services cannot reasonably be restored within such period of time, such additional time as reasonably necessary, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon written notice to Landlord.
          (b) Landlord will use its commercially reasonable efforts (including, in Landlord’s sole discretion, reasonable expenditures of money) to cause the prompt restoration of any interrupted utility services; further, should any equipment or machinery in the Building break down so as to render the Premises unusable by Tenant, Landlord shall promptly repair or replace it (subject to delays which result from strikes, unavailability of parts or other materials, or other matters beyond Landlord’s reasonable control).
     14.4 The parties hereto agree to comply with all mandatory energy conservation controls and requirements applicable to office buildings that arc imposed or instituted by the Federal, state or local governments, including without limitation, controls on the permitted range of temperature settings in office buildings, and requirements necessitating curtailment of the volume of energy consumption or the hours of operation of the Building. Any terms or conditions of this Lease that conflict or interfere with compliance with such controls or requirements shall be suspended for the duration of such controls or requirements. It is further agreed that compliance with such controls or requirements shall not be considered an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the Premises and shall not entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease or to an abatement of any rent payable hereunder.
     14.5 To the extent water usage is not separately metered, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its actual out of pocket cost for any Excess Water Usage (as defined below) in the Premises. “Excess Water Usage” shall mean the excess of Tenant’s water usage during any billing period for water services over the estimated average water usage during the same period for all office tenants of the Building (excluding Tenant), as adjusted for the square footage occupied for each such tenant, and as reasonably computed by Landlord. If Tenant connects into Landlord’s supplemental cooling system currently located (or to be located) on the roof of the Building, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all costs incurred by Landlord therefor, as reasonably determined by Landlord. Similarly, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any excess usage of supplemental condenser water, which excess usage shall be paid for by Tenant in the same manner and subject to similar conditions as apply to excess water usage and electricity usage pursuant to this Section 14.5.
     14.6 For so long as Tenant (or its permitted successors, assigns, and sublessees under this Lease) is a tenant in the Building, the fitness facility in the South of Market Complex shall be

continuously operated as a fitness facility and shall remain open to all office tenants of the South of Market Complex, Tenant’s (or its permitted successors, assigns, and sublessees under this Lease) employees who work in the Building shall have the nonexclusive right (subject to reasonable rules and regulations, and at no separate charge) to use the fitness facility, provided however Landlord may relocate the fitness facility within the South of Market Complex so long as the relocated fitness facility is substantially the same size and quality. The fitness facility shall be available to Tenant’s (or its permitted successors, assigns, and sublessees under this Lease) employees who work in the Building on a regular basis on a non-exclusive first-come, first-served basis. Landlord may specifically condition the use of the fitness facility by any person upon such person’s execution of a written waiver and release holding Landlord harmless from any and all liability, damage, expense, cause of action, suit, claim, judgment and cost of defense arising from injury to such employee or guest occurring in the fitness facility or resulting from the use thereof Neither Landlord nor Landlord’s agents or partners, shall have any liability to Tenant or its employees, agents, invitees, licensees, customers, clients, family members or guests for any damage, injury, loss, expense, compensation or claim whatsoever arising out of the use of the fitness facility.
     14.7 Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, costs for the services and utilities required to be furnished and/or performed by Landlord that are described in this Article XIV shall be passed through to Tenant as an Operating Expense to the extent permitted pursuant to Article IV hereof.
ARTICLE XV
LIABILITY OF LANDLORD
     15.1 Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or to its Invitees for any damage, injury, loss, compensation or claim, including but not limited to claims for the interruption of or loss to Tenant’s business, based on, arising out of or resulting from any cause whatsoever, including but not limited to the following: repairs to any portion of the Premises or the South of Market Complex; interruption in the use of the Premises; any accident or damage resulting from the use or operation (by Landlord, Tenant or any other person or persons) of elevators, or of the heating, cooling, electrical or plumbing equipment or apparatus; the termination of this Lease by reason of the destruction of the Premises or the South of Market Complex; any fire, robbery, theft, mysterious disappearance or any other casualty; the actions of any other tenants of the South of Market Complex or of any other person or persons; and any leakage in any part or portion of the Premises or the South of Market Complex, or from water, rain or snow that may leak into, or flow from, any part of the Premises or the South of Market Complex, or from drains, pipes or plumbing fixtures in the South of Market Complex. Any goods, property or personal effects stored or placed by Tenant or its employees in or about the Premises or the South of Market Complex shall be at the sole risk of Tenant, and Landlord shall not in any manner be held responsible therefor. It is understood that the employees of Landlord are prohibited from receiving any packages or other articles delivered to the Building for Tenant, and if any such employee receives any such package or articles, such employee shall be acting as the agent of Tenant for such purposes and not as the agent of Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing

provisions of this Section 15.1 to the contrary, Landlord shall not be released from liability to Tenant for damage or injury caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its employees; provided, however, in no event shall Landlord have any liability to Tenant for any claims based on the interruption of or loss to Tenant’s business or for any indirect losses or consequential damages or punitive damages or other special damages whatsoever.
     15.2 (a) Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all costs, damages, claims, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and any costs of litigation) suffered by or claimed against Landlord, directly or indirectly, based on, arising out of or resulting from (i) Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises or the business conducted by Tenant therein, (ii) any accident, injury or damage whatsoever caused to any person, or to the property of any person, occurring during the Lease Term in the Premises, except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, contractors, or employees, (iii) any act or omission to act by Tenant or its Invitees, (iv) any breach or default by Tenant in the performance or observance of its covenants or obligations under this Lease, (v) the towing of any car or other vehicle as provided in Section 24.3 hereof, or (vi) Tenant’s or its employees’ or agent’s use of the fitness facility in the Building or the Risers (as defined in Section 26.1) provided, however, (A) Tenant’s obligation to indemnify Landlord pursuant to this Section 15.2(a) shall be applicable and shall be enforceable only to the extent that Landlord has suffered an actual and demonstrable loss caused by the breach or default by Tenant in the performance or observance of its covenants or obligations under this Lease; (B) in no event shall Tenant have any liability to Landlord for claims based on the interruption of or loss to Landlord’s business or for any indirect losses or consequential, punitive or other special damages whatsoever or for claims for which Landlord is insured or required under this Lease to be insured; and (C) in no event shall Tenant have any liability to Landlord for claims made by Tenant’s employees against Landlord (or Landlord’s property management agent) relating to such employees’ use of the fitness facility in the Building.
          (b) Landlord hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from and against all costs, damages, claims, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of litigation) suffered by or claimed against Tenant, directly or indirectly, based on, arising out of or resulting from (i) any accident, injury or damage whatsoever caused to any person, or the property of any person, on or about the common or public areas of the Building or the South of Market Complex, to the extent within Landlord’s exclusive control during the Lease Term, and (ii) any breach or default by Landlord in the performance or observance of its covenants or obligations under this Lease; except, if and to the extent such accident, injury, damage, failure, breach or default is a result of or in any way caused by Tenant’s or any of its agents, contractors, employees’ or subtenant’s negligence, misconduct or wrongful act or omission to act, and except, further that Landlord’s obligation to indemnify Tenant pursuant to this Section 15.2 shall be applicable and shall be enforceable only to the extent that Tenant has suffered an actual and demonstrable loss directly caused by the breach or default by Landlord in the performance or observance of its covenants or obligations under this Lease; and provided, however, that in no event

shall Landlord have any liability to Tenant for claims based on the interruption of or loss to Tenant’s business or for any indirect losses or consequential, punitive or other special damages whatsoever or for claims for which Tenant is insured or required under this Lease to be insured. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 15.2(b) or elsewhere in this Lease, this Section 15.2(b) shall not apply to the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust secured by the Building unless and until such holder acts as landlord under this Lease or otherwise owns or holds title to the Building by foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.
     15.3 In the event that at any time Landlord shall sell or transfer title to the Building, provided the purchaser or transferee assumes the obligations of Landlord hereunder arising from and after the date of the transfer, Landlord named herein shall not be liable to Tenant for any obligations or liabilities based on or arising out of events or conditions occurring on or after the date of such sale or transfer. Furthermore, Tenant agrees to attorn to any such purchaser or transferee upon all the terms and conditions of this Lease; provided that such purchaser or transferee enters into a commercially reasonable market form of Subordination, Nondisburbance and Attornment Agreement (“SNDA”) with Tenant. For all purposes under this Lease, the phrase “commercially reasonable market form” with respect to an SNDA means that such agreement, at a minimum, provides that so long as no Event of Default with respect to Tenant is then ongoing, Tenant’s rights under this Lease, including without limitation Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises, shall not be disturbed by the other party to the SNDA.
     15.4 In the event that Tenant shall have a claim against Landlord, Tenant shall not have the right to deduct the amount allegedly owed to Tenant from any rent or other sums payable to Landlord hereunder, it being understood that Tenant’s sole remedy for recovering upon such claim shall be to institute an independent action against Landlord.
     15.5 Tenant agrees that in the event Tenant is awarded a money judgment against Landlord, Tenant’s sole recourse for satisfaction of such judgment shall be limited to execution against the estate and interest of Landlord in the Building. In no event shall any other assets of Landlord, any partner of Landlord, the holder of any mortgage (or anyone claiming by through or under such holder) or any other person or entity be available to satisfy, or be subject to, such judgment, nor shall any partner of Landlord or any such other person or entity be held to have any personal liability for satisfaction of any claims or judgments that Tenant may have against Landlord or any partner of Landlord in such partner’s capacity as a partner of Landlord.
     15.6 Landlord agrees that (a) no officer, director, employee, shareholder or partner of ComScore, Inc. (each a “Partner of Tenant”) shall have any personal liability for the performance of any obligation under this Lease or any covenant or agreement contained herein or unpaid amount due hereunder, nor shall any judgment be sought or obtained against any Partner of Tenant and Landlord will not seek to obtain or impose any lien or charging order or claim against any assets of any Partner of Tenant, (b) in the event that Landlord is awarded a money judgment against ComScore, Inc., Landlord’s sole recourse for satisfaction of such judgment shall be limited to the

assets of ComScore, Inc. and (c) in no event shall the personal assets of any Partner of Tenant be available to satisfy any judgment which Landlord may have against ComScore, Inc.
ARTICLE XVI
RULES AND REGULATIONS
     16.1 Tenant and its Invitees shall at all times abide by and observe the Rules and Regulations attached hereto as Exhibit C. In addition, Tenant and its Invitees shall abide by and observe all other rules or regulations that Landlord may promulgate from time to time for the operation and maintenance of the South of Market Complex, Parking Garage and/or the Parking Structure, provided that notice thereof is given to Tenant and such rules and regulations are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Lease nor materially interfere with the Tenant’s right to use the Premises in accordance with the permitted uses set forth in this Lease. Landlord shall consistently enforce and administer the Rules and Regulations. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as imposing upon Landlord any duty or obligation to enforce such rules and regulations or the terms, conditions or covenants contained in any other lease, as against any other tenant, and Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or its Invitees for the violation of such rules or regulations by any other tenant or such other tenant’s employees, agents, invitees, licensees, customers, subtenants, contractors, clients, family members or guests. If there is any inconsistency between this Lease and the Rules and Regulations set forth in Exhibit C, this Lease shall govern.
ARTICLE XVII
DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
     17.1 If the Premises or the Building are totally or partially damaged or destroyed from any cause, thereby rendering the Premises totally or partially inaccessible or unusable, Landlord shall diligently (taking into account the time necessary to effectuate a satisfactory settlement with any insurance company involved) restore and repair the Premises and the Building to substantially the same condition they were in prior to such damage; provided, however, if in the sole judgment of Landlord, based on commercially accepted construction practices, the repairs and restoration cannot be completed within two hundred seventy (270) days after the occurrence of such damage, including the time needed for removal of debris, preparation of plans and issuance of all required governmental permits, Landlord shall have the right, at its sole option, to terminate this Lease by giving written notice of termination to Tenant within forty-five (45) days after the occurrence of such damage.
     17.2 If Landlord determines, in its sole judgment, based on commercially accepted construction practices, that the repairs and restoration cannot be substantially completed within two hundred seventy (270) days after the date of such damage or destruction, Landlord shall promptly notify Tenant of such determination. For a period of thirty (30) days after receipt of such determination, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by providing written notice to Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease if

the grossly negligent act or omission of Tenant, or any of its Invitees, shall have caused the damage or destruction.
     17.3 If this Lease is terminated pursuant to this Article, all rent payable hereunder shall be apportioned and paid to the date of the occurrence of such damage, and Tenant shall have no further rights or remedies as against Landlord pursuant to this Lease, or otherwise. If this Lease is not terminated as a result of such damage, and provided that such damage was not caused by the grossly negligent act or omission to act of Tenant, or any of its Invitees, until the repair and restoration of the Premises is completed, Tenant shall be required to pay annual base rent and additional rent only for that part of the Premises that Tenant is able to use (for the permitted uses contemplated by this Lease) while repairs are being made, based on the ratio that the amount of rentable area in the usable portion of the Premises bears to the total rentable area of the Premises. If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to this Article, Landlord shall repair and restore the Building and Premises using the proceeds of the insurance required to be maintained by Tenant and Landlord under this Lease, except that if such damage or destruction was caused by the grossly negligent act or omission to act of Tenant or any of its Invitees, upon written demand from Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount by which such costs and expenses exceed the insurance proceeds, if any, received by Landlord on account of such damage or destruction. Provided, however, that Landlord shall not be obligated to restore the Premises or the Building if (i) the destruction was not caused by an insurable event, or (ii) the estimated cost of such restoration, as determined by Landlord’s architect, exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds available to Landlord for such restoration.
     17.4 If Landlord repairs and restores the Premises as provided in this Article XVII, Landlord shall not be required to repair or restore any decorations, alterations or improvements to the Premises previously made by or at the expense of Tenant nor any of the trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment or personal property belonging to Tenant. If this Lease is not terminated pursuant to this Article, Tenant shall be required to repair and restore at its sole expense all such decorations, alterations, or improvements to the Premises previously made by or at the expense of Tenant and all such trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and personal property belonging to Tenant.
     17.5 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if fifty percent (50%) or more of the Building is damaged or destroyed from any cause to such an extent that the costs of repairing and restoring the Building would exceed fifty percent (50%) of the replacement value of the Building, whether or not the Premises arc damaged or destroyed, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by written notice to Tenant. In exercising this right, Landlord agrees not to act in an arbitrary or capricious manner. This right of termination shall be in addition to any other right of termination provided in this Lease. Provided, however, if Landlord exercises this right and intends to relet the Premises in substantially the condition and configuration the Premises were in at the time of termination for the remainder of the then current Lease Term prior to such reletting, Landlord shall offer the Premises to Tenant pursuant to the terms and conditions of Article XXIX.

ComScore, Inc. Lease

     17.6 Further notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall have the option, but not the obligation, to terminate this Lease (exercisable as set forth below) at no cost or fee in the event any casualty occurs which results in the non-tenability of greater than fifty percent (50%) of the Premises for a period of longer than two hundred and seventy (270) days from the date of casualty and, as a result, the date that the repairs and restoration are completed is less than one (1) year before the scheduled expiration date for the then current Lease Term, unless Tenant shall have exercised any applicable option to renew the Term of this Lease (collectively, the “Termination Standard”). In each such ease, Landlord and Tenant agree that Tenant’s termination rights shall not be subject to delay, suspension, termination or in any way affected or modified by any Force Majeure Event as provided in Section 25.18 in the Lease whether or not Landlord has attempted to timely reconstruct the Premises. Tenant’s right to terminate pursuant to this Section 17.6 shall be exercised by written notice to Landlord given within thirty (30) days after Tenant receives notice from Landlord with Landlord’s determination that the Termination Standard will be applicable, after which period such right (if not exercised) shall thereafter lapse and be of no further force or effect.
ARTICLE XVIII
CONDEMNATION
     18.1 If the whole or a substantial part (as hereinafter defined) of the Building or the Premises, or the use or occupancy of a substantial part of the Premises, shall be taken or condemned by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose (including a sale thereof under threat of such a taking), then this Lease shall be terminable by either Landlord or Tenant upon written notice to the other, which termination shall be effective on the date title thereto vests in such governmental or quasi-governmental authority, and all rent payable hereunder shall be apportioned as of such date. If less than a substantial part of the Premises, or the use or occupancy thereof, is taken or condemned by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose (including a sale thereof under threat of such a taking), this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but the annual base rent and additional rent thereafter payable hereunder shall be equitably adjusted (on the basis of the ratio of the number of square feet of rentable area taken to the total rentable area of the Premises prior to such taking) as of the date title vests in the governmental or quasi-governmental authority. For purposes of this Section 18.1, a “substantial part” of the Building or the Premises shall be considered to have been taken if more than one-third (1/3) of the Building or the Premises is rendered unusable as a result of such taking.
     18.2 All awards, damages and other compensation paid by the condemning authority on account of such taking or condemnation (or sale under threat of such taking) shall belong to Landlord, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all rights to such awards, damages and compensation. Tenant agrees not to make any claim against Landlord or the condemning authority for any portion of such award or compensation attributable to damage to the Premises, the value of the unexpired term of this Lease, the loss of profits or goodwill, leasehold improvements or severance damages. Nothing contained herein, however, shall prevent Tenant from pursuing a

ComScore, Inc. Lease

-50-


 

separate claim against the condemning authority for the value of Tenant’s buildout that was above what would normally be considered “standard furnishings,” as well as all equipment, personalty, and trade fixtures installed in the Premises at Tenant’s expense and for relocation expenses, provided that such claim does not in any way diminish the award or compensation payable to or recoverable by Landlord in connection with such taking or condemnation.
ARTICLE XIX
DEFAULT BY TENANT
     19.1 In addition to those events or occurrences described in this Lease as Events of Default, the occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease:
          (a) If Tenant shall fail to pay any installment of annual base rent or additional rent or any other sums required by this Lease when due and such failure shall remain uncured for a period of five (5) days after Landlord notifies Tenant in writing of such failure; provided however, that Landlord shall not be required to give Tenant more than two (2) such written notices in any twelve (12) month period or five (5) such written notices during the Lease Term (after which time nonpayment on the date due shall constitute an Event of Default).
          (b) If Tenant shall violate or fail to perform any other term, condition, covenant or agreement to be performed or observed by Tenant under this Lease and such violation or failure shall continue uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after Landlord notifies Tenant of such violation or failure, or, if such violation or failure is not capable of being cured within such thirty (30) day period, then provided Tenant commences curative action within such thirty (30) day period and proceeds diligently and in good faith thereafter to cure such violation or failure, such cure period shall be extended for a reasonable time not to exceed ninety (90) days.
          (c) If Tenant shall abandon the Premises and not be paying rent.
          (d) If an Event of Bankruptcy, as defined in Section 20.1 of this Lease, shall occur.
          (e) If an Environmental Default, as defined in Section 6.4 of this Lease, shall occur.
  19.2 (a) If there shall be an Event of Default existing beyond any applicable cure periods, then the provisions of this Section 19.2 shall apply. Landlord shall have the right, at its sole option, to terminate this Lease. In addition, with or without terminating this Lease, but in accordance with all legal rights that Tenant shall possess under applicable law, Landlord may reenter, terminate Tenant’s right of possession and take possession of the Premises. The provisions of this Article shall operate as a notice to quit, and Tenant hereby waives any other notice to quit or notice of Landlord’s intention to reenter the Premises or terminate this Lease. If necessary, Landlord

ComScore, Inc. Lease

may proceed to recover possession of the Premises under the applicable Legal Requirements, or by such other proceedings, including reentry 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 base rent additional rent and other sums specified herein. 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 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) (which may extend beyond the date on which the Lease Term would have expired but for Tenant’s default) and on such terms and conditions (which may include any concessions or allowances granted by Landlord) 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; provided, however, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Premises in a timely manner and provided further that it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to lease other space in its inventory first.
          (b) Whether or not this Lease and/or Tenant’s right of possession is terminated or any suit is instituted, Tenant shall be liable for any base rent, additional rent, damages or other sum which may be due or sustained prior to such Event of Default, and for all costs, fees and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, brokerage fees, expenses incurred in enforcing any of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or in placing the Premises in Class A rentable condition, advertising expenses, and any concessions or allowances granted by Landlord) reasonably incurred by Landlord in pursuit of its remedies hereunder and/or in recovering possession of the Premises and renting the Premises to others from time to time plus other damages suffered or incurred by Landlord on account of such Event of Default (including, but not limited to late fees or other charges incurred by Landlord under any mortgage). Tenant also shall be liable for additional damages which at Landlord’s election shall be either one or a combination of the following: (a) an amount equal to the Base Rent and additional rent due or which would have become due from the date of such Event of 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 such Event of Default and continuing until the date on which the Lease Term would have expired but for such Event of Default, it being understood that 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 month(s)), 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), and it being

further understood that if Landlord elects to bring suits from time to time prior to reletting the Premises, Landlord shall be entitled to its full damages through the date of the award of damages without regard to any Base Rent, additional rent or other sums that are or may be projected to be received by Landlord upon reletting of the Premises; provided that Landlord has diligently and in good faith pursued the actions necessary to relet the Premises as quickly as reasonably possible; or (b) an amount equal to the sum of (i) all base rent, additional rent and other sums due or which would be due and payable under this Lease as of the date of such Event of Default through the end of the scheduled Lease Term, plus (ii) all expenses (including broker and reasonable attorneys’ fees) and value of all vacancy periods reasonably projected by Landlord to be incurred in connection with the reletting of the Premises, minus (iii) any base rent, additional rent and other sums which would be received by Landlord upon reletting of the Premises from the end of the vacancy period projected by Landlord through the expiration of the scheduled Lease Term. Such amount shall be discounted using a discount factor equal to the yield of the Treasury Note or Bill, as appropriate, having a maturity period approximately commensurate to the remainder of the Term, and such resulting amount shall be payable to Landlord in a lump sum on demand, it being understood that upon payment of such liquidated and agreed final damages, Tenant shall be released from further liability under this Lease with respect to the period after the date of such payment, and that Landlord may bring suit to collect any such damages at any time after an Event of Default shall have occurred.
          (c) In the event Landlord relets the Premises together with other premises or for a term extending beyond the scheduled expiration of the Lease Term, it is understood that Tenant will not be entitled to apply any base rent, additional rent or other sums generated or projected to be generated by either such other premises or in the period extending beyond the scheduled expiration of the Lease Term (collectively, “Extra Rent”) against Landlord’s damages. Similarly in calculating the amount that would be received by Landlord upon a reletting of the Premises as set forth in clause (iii) above, Tenant shall not take into account the Extra Rent. The provisions contained in this Section shall be in addition to, and shall not prevent the enforcement of, any claim Landlord may have against Tenant for anticipatory breach of this Lease. Nothing herein shall be construed to affect or prejudice Landlord’s right to prove, and claim in full, unpaid rent accrued prior to termination of this Lease. If Landlord is entitled, or Tenant is required, pursuant to any provision hereof to take any action upon the termination of the Lease Term, then Landlord shall be entitled, and Tenant shall be required, to take such action also upon the termination of Tenant’s right of possession.
   19.3 (a) Tenant hereby expressly waives, for itself and all persons claiming by, through or under it, any right of redemption, reentry or restoration of the operation of this Lease under any present or future Law, including without limitation any such right which Tenant would otherwise have in case Tenant shall be dispossessed for any cause, or in case Landlord shall obtain possession of the Premises as herein provided.
          (b) All rights and remedies of Landlord set forth herein are in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Landlord hereunder or at law or in equity. All rights and remedies
Reston South of Market

-53-


 

available to Landlord hereunder or at law or in equity are expressly declared to be cumulative. The exercise by Landlord of any such right or remedy shall not prevent the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy; provided, however, that Landlord shall in all instances be entitled to only one recovery for any one cause of action. No delay in the enforcement or exercise of any such right or remedy shall constitute a waiver of any default by Tenant hereunder or of any of Landlord’s rights or remedies in connection therewith. Landlord shall not be deemed to have waived any default by Tenant hereunder unless such waiver 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, the same shall not constitute a waiver of default 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 installments of annual base rent, additional rent or of any sums due hereunder nor any endorsement or statement on a check or letter accompanying a check for payment of rent or other sums payable hereunder shall be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such rent or other sums or to pursue any other remedy available to Landlord. 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.
     19.5 If Tenant defaults in the making of any payment or in the doing of any act herein required to be made or done by Tenant, then Landlord may, after the expiration of any applicable cure period, but shall not be required to, make such payment or do such act. If Landlord elects to make such payment or do such act, all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord, plus interest thereon at the rate per annum (“Default Rate”) which is two percent (2%) higher than the publicly announced “prime rate” then being reported by the Bank of America, from the date paid by Landlord to the date of payment thereof by Tenant, shall be immediately paid by Tenant to Landlord; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be construed as permitting Landlord to charge or receive interest in excess of the maximum legal rate then allowed by law. The taking of such action by Landlord shall not be considered as a cure of such default by Tenant or prevent Landlord from pursuing any remedy it is otherwise entitled to in connection with such default.
     19.6 If Tenant fails to make any payment of base rent or of additional rent on or before the date such payment is due and payable, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge of five percent (5%) of the amount of such payment. In addition, such payment shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such payment became due to 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 legal rate then allowed by law. Such late charge and interest shall constitute additional rent due and payable hereunder with the next installment of annual base rent due hereunder.

     19.7 In the event that any action shall be instituted by either of the parties to this Lease (or their successors) to interpret any provision of this Lease, or for the enforcement of any of their rights in and under this Lease, the party in whose favor judgment shall be rendered in such action shall be entitled to recover from the other party all reasonable attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in such action.

          (a) Tenant’s (i) becoming insolvent, as that term is defined in Title 11 of the United States Code (“Bankruptcy Code”) or under the insolvency laws of any state, district, commonwealth or territory of the United States (“Insolvency Laws”); (ii) generally not paying its debts as they become due unless such debts are the subject of a bona fide dispute, or (iii) inability to pay its debts as they become due;
          (b) The appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or any similar responsible party or representative for any or all of Tenant’s property or assets, or the institution of a foreclosure, replevin, forfeiture, seizure, attachment, garnishment, or any similar action, proceeding or process upon or against any of Tenant’s real, personal or other property;
          (c) The filing by Tenant of a voluntary petition under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or Insolvency Laws;
          (d) The filing of an involuntary petition against Tenant as the subject debtor under the Bankruptcy Code or Insolvency Laws, which either (i) is not dismissed within ninety (90) days of filing, or (ii) results in the issuance of an order for relief against the debtor; or
          (e) Tenant’s making or consenting to an assignment for the benefit of creditors or a common law composition of creditors, or otherwise consenting to the default rights or remedies of Tenant’s or any guarantor’s other creditors.

SUBORDINATION
     21.1 This Lease is subject to and subordinate to the lien of any and all mortgages (which term “mortgages” shall include both construction and permanent financing and shall include deeds of trust and similar security instruments) which may now encumber the Building, and to any and all renewals, extensions, modifications, recastings or refinancing thereof This Lease shall also be subject and subordinate to the lien of (i) any new first mortgage that hereafter may encumber the Building, and (ii) any second or junior mortgages that may hereafter encumber the Building, provided the holder of the first mortgage consents to such subordination. At any time after the

execution of this Lease, the holder of any mortgage to which this Lease is subordinate shall have the right to declare this Lease to be superior to the lien of such mortgage, and Tenant agrees to execute all documents required by such holder in confirmation thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, as a condition precedent to the subordination of this Lease to any mortgage or deed of trust, Landlord shall he required to provide Tenant with a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in favor of Tenant from any mortgagee on such mortgagee’s customary market form; provided, however, such form must be a commercially reasonable market form and shall, at a minimum, provide that so long as no Event of Default with respect to Tenant is then ongoing, Tenant’s rights under this Lease, including without limitation, Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises, shall not be disturbed by such mortgagee.
     21.2 In confirmation of the foregoing conditional subordination, Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, execute upon not less than fifteen (15) business days’ prior written notice by Landlord any reasonably appropriate certificate or other document. If Tenant fails to execute and deliver such certificate or other document within the aforesaid fifteen (15) business day period, then Landlord shall provide Tenant with an additional written notice and if such failure continues for five (5) days thereafter, then such failure to execute and deliver after such second written notice shall constitute an immediate Event of Default without any other notice and cure period. Tenant agrees that in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any mortgage encumbering the Building, provided that such purchaser delivers to Tenant a commercially reasonable market form of attornment agreement; Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser at such foreclosure sale, if requested to do so by such purchaser, and shall recognize such purchaser as the landlord under this Lease, and Tenant waives the provisions of any statute or rule of law, now or hereafter in effect, which may give or purport to give Tenant any right to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of Tenant hereunder in the event any such foreclosure proceeding is prosecuted or completed or any deed in lieu obtained. Tenant agrees that upon such attornment, such purchaser shall not (i) be bound by any payment of annual base rent or additional rent for more than one (1) month in advance, except prepayments in the nature of security for the performance by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease, but only to the extent such prepayments have been delivered to such purchaser; (ii) bound by any amendment of this Lease made without the consent of any lender providing construction or permanent financing for the Building; (iii) be liable for damages for any act or omission of any prior landlord; (iv) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord; (v) be obligated for construction of any improvements otherwise to be constructed by Landlord under this Lease; or (vi) be obligated under any provision of this Lease setting forth terms of indemnification by Landlord of Tenant; provided that such purchaser expressly assumes all of the obligations of Landlord under the Lease and that such purchaser honors the terms of this Lease from and after the date of such purchase and does not disturb Tenant in its possession of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after succeeding to Landlord’s interest under this Lease, such purchaser shall perform in accordance with the terms of this Lease all obligations of Landlord arising after the date such purchaser acquires title to the Building. Upon request by such purchaser, but conditioned upon Tenant receiving written confirmation from such purchaser of its

honoring and assumption of, and such purchaser’s non-disturbance of Tenant under all provisions of, this Lease, Tenant shall execute and deliver an instrument or instruments confirming its attornment.
     21.3 (a) After receiving written notice from any person, firm or other entity that it holds a mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease on the Building, or the land on which the Building is situated, 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.
             (b) In addition to the time afforded Landlord for the curing of any default, any such holder, trustee, or ground lessor (of which Tenant has been given written notice) shall have an additional thirty (30) days to cure any such default, provided that if such default cannot reasonably cured within thirty (30) days, then such holder, trustee or ground lessor shall have such additional time as may be necessary given the nature and extent of the default after the expiration of the period allowed to 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, but in no event longer than ninety (90) days; and provided, further, that (i) such cure period shall commence at such time as Tenant gives written notice of such default to such holder, trustee or ground lessor, except that (ii) in the event such holder, trustee or ground lessor gives notice to Tenant (within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s notice of default) that it is pursuing a foreclosure, deed in lieu or foreclosure or similar proceedings to gain possession of the Building, then the foregoing cure periods shall not commence until such holder, trustee or ground lessor obtains possession of the Building through completion of such foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or similar proceeding.
             (c) In the event that any lender providing construction or permanent financing or any refinancing for the Building or the South of Market Complex requires, as a condition of such financing, that minor modifications to this Lease be obtained, and provided that such modifications (i) are reasonable, (ii) do not adversely affect Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises as herein permitted, (iii) do not increase the rent and other sums to be paid by Tenant hereunder, (iv) do not reduce the services provided to Tenant under this Lease, (v) do not decrease Landlord’s obligations under this Lease, (vi) do not affect the rights and obligations of Tenant under this Lease, (vii) do not impose additional obligations or liability on Tenant, monetary or otherwise, (viii) do not discriminate against Tenant vis-à-vis any other tenant in the Building of the South of Market Complex, (ix) do not affect the rentable area of the Premises, including Tenant’s expansion rights hereunder or the method of calculating the rentable area of the Premises and (x) do not affect the Lease Term, including the right of renewal set forth in Rider No. 1 and the right of extension set forth in Rider No. 2 to this Lease, then Landlord may submit to Tenant a written amendment to this Lease incorporating such required changes, and Tenant hereby covenants and agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such amendment to Landlord within ten (10) business days of Tenant’s receipt thereof.

Provided, however, if Landlord consents to Tenant holding over, the amount of the annual base rent payable by Tenant shall be equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the amount of the annual base rent in effect during the last month of the Lease Term for the first three (3) months of such holdover and thereafter the amount of the annual base rent payable by Tenant shall be equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the amount of the annual base rent in effect during the last month of the Lease Term prior to the initial holding over period. Said monthly tenancy shall commence on the first day following the expiration of the Lease Term. As a monthly tenant, Tenant shall be subject to all the terms, conditions, covenants and agreements of this Lease. Tenant shall give to Landlord at least thirty (30) days’ written notice of any intention to quit the Premises. Tenant shall be entitled to at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to quit the Premises, which notice shall not be given until the expiration of the Lease Term, unless Tenant is in default hereunder, in which event Tenant shall not be entitled to any notice to quit, the usual thirty (30) days’ notice to quit being hereby expressly waived. Landlord hereby acknowledges that Tenant shall have no liability to Landlord or any other party on account of alleged or real consequential or other special damages incurred as a result of any such holdover by Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 22.1, in the event that Tenant shall hold over after the expiration of the Lease Term, and if Landlord shall desire to regain possession of the Premises promptly at the expiration of the Lease Term, then at any time prior to Landlord’s acceptance of rent from Tenant as a monthly tenant hereunder, Landlord, at its option may forthwith re-enter and take possession of the Premises without process, or by any legal process in force in the jurisdiction in which the Building is located.
ARTICLE XXIII
COVENANTS OF LANDLORD
     23.1 Landlord covenants that it has the right to make this Lease for the term aforesaid, and that if Tenant shall pay all rent when due and punctually perform all the covenants, terms, conditions and agreements of this Lease to be performed by Tenant, Tenant shall, during the term hereby created, freely, peaceably and quietly occupy and enjoy the full possession of the Premises without molestation or hindrance by Landlord or any party claiming through or under Landlord, subject to the provisions of this Lease, including, without limitation, Section 23.2 hereof Landlord and Tenant each acknowledges and agrees that the leasehold estate in and to the Premises created by this Lease vests on the date this Lease is executed, notwithstanding that the term of this Lease will not commence until a future date.

If, as a result of Landlord’s change of street address or name of the Building, Tenant must replace its professional stationery, Landlord agrees to reimburse Tenant based on invoices presented to Landlord, for the reasonable cost of replacing stock on hand at the time of such change with stationery of equal amount and quality.
ARTICLE XXIV
PARKING
     24.1 As part of, and included in Base Rent, and at no additional cost during the Lease Term (as the same may be extended, provided that the inclusion of paid parking in the Base Rent shall be a factor in determining prevailing market rent for purposes of any applicable Renewal Term), Landlord hereby grants to Tenant, its employees and approved subtenants monthly parking permits in an amount equal to (i) one (1) monthly parking permit for the Parking Garage for each one thousand (1,000) square feet of rentable area from time to time contained in all above-grade portions of the Premises, and (ii) two (2) monthly parking permits for the Parking Structure for each one thousand (1,000) square feet of above grade rentable area in the Premises (excluding any storage space leased by Tenant), for the parking of standard-sized passenger vehicles, including standard-sized sport utility vehicles) on a non-exclusive, unassigned, first-come, first-served basis, provided that there will be sufficient space to park (which may be on a stacked parking basis) for Tenant’s employees with the guaranteed monthly parking permits set forth above. If Landlord uses stacked parking in the Parking Garage or Parking Structure, then (i) such stacked parking policies will be applied on a reasonable and customary basis, (ii) an attendant will be available on a reasonable and customary basis during normal Building hours to move cars for parkers, (iii) for the first three (3) Lease Years, no costs or expenses pertaining to providing stacked parking will be included in Operating Expenses hereunder, and (iv) after the first three (3) Lease Years, any costs or expenses pertaining to providing stacked parking will be reduced by any revenues received by Landlord that are generated by the Parking Garage or Parking Structure. If during the Lease Term, Landlord grants reserved parking spaces in the Parking Garage to any other office tenant in the Building, then Tenant shall be entitled to the same pro rata share of reserved parking spaces (based

on relative size of each tenant’s premises in the Building) in the Parking Garage at a charge equal to the market rate for reserved parking. The choice of location of such reserved parking shall be allocated on an equitable basis among the applicable tenants as reasonably determined by Landlord. Landlord reserves the right to charge for visitor parking and/or monthly employee parking above the three (3) parking permits for each one thousand (1,000) square feet of rentable area ratio.
     24.2 It is understood and agreed that the Parking Garage and Parking Structure will be operated on a self-parking basis and that no specific parking spaces will be allocated for use by Tenant. Landlord reserves the right to establish other parking controls, rules or regulations, at any time and in its reasonable discretion. Each user of the Parking Garage and Parking Structure will have the right to park in any available unreserved parking space in accordance with regulations of uniform applicability promulgated by Landlord. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord hereby reserves the right from time to time to designate any portion of the Parking Garage and Parking Structure to be used exclusively by visitors, retail patrons to the South of Market Complex, other tenants of the South of Market Complex.
     24.3 Tenant agrees that it and its employees shall observe reasonable safety precautions in the use of the Parking Garage and Parking Structure and shall at all times abide by all rules and regulations promulgated by Landlord. Tenant’s employees having the use of monthly parking permits shall be required to display identification or parking sticker at all times in all vehicles parked in the Parking Garage and Parking Structure. Any ear not displaying such a sticker may be towed away at the vehicle owner’s expense in accordance with the Parking Garage and Parking Structure rules and regulations. In addition, Landlord’s and Tenant’s use of the Parking Garage and Parking Structure shall be subject to all Legal Requirements. If an employee of Tenant or other person who has been issued a permit for standard unreserved parking in the Parking Garage or Parking Structure parks in a reserved parking space or in areas of the Parking Garage or Parking Structure that are designated as reserved for the exclusive use of tenants other than Tenant, such employee shall be subject to enforcement measures, which may include payment of Landlord’s third-party costs, including the cost of towing the vehicle.
     24.4 The Parking Garage and Parking Structure will remain open on Monday through Sunday twenty-four (24) hours a day except in the event of an emergency. Landlord reserves the right to close all or any portion of the Parking Garage and Parking Structure during periods of unusually inclement weather or for cleaning, maintenance and repairs; provided, however, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make available, at no cost to Tenant, sufficient alternate parking as proximate to the South of Market Complex as practicable during such full or partial closures of the Parking Garage or Parking Structure.
     24.5 It is understood and agreed that Landlord does not assume any responsibility for, and shall not be held liable for, any damage or loss to any vehicles parked in the Parking Garage and Parking Structure or to any personal property located therein, or for any injury sustained by any person in or about the Parking Garage or Parking Structure.

Landlord and Tenant agree to cooperate with the other on the placement of the equipment so as to afford Tenant proper “line of sight” for the Communications Equipment to the extent such location is available. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have DirectTV satellite dishes installed on the Building for general use by tenants. Notwithstanding anything in this Article to the contrary, Tenant shall not be permitted to install the Communications Equipment unless (I) Landlord, at Tenant’s expense, determines that there is room on the roof or penthouse of the Building for the Communications Equipment (provided however, if Tenant requests in writing prior to February 1, 2008 the right to install the Communications Equipment, Tenant will be guaranteed space on the roof or penthouse) and that Tenant’s Communications Equipment shall not interfere with any other satellite dish or antenna of any other tenant in the Building, (II) such Communications Equipment conforms to the specifications and requirements set forth in the drawings and specifications prepared by a licensed professional (“Communications Equipment Drawings”), which Communications Equipment Drawings shall be subject to the prior written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (III) Landlord approves, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, the size, capacity, power, location and proposed placement and method of installation of such Communications Equipment, and (IV) Tenant obtains, at its sole cost and expense, and provides copies to Landlord of all necessary governmental permits and approvals, including, without limitation, special exception permits, if applicable, for the installation of the Communications Equipment upon the Building. Tenant, at Landlord’s direction, shall cause the Communications Equipment to be painted in a nonmetallic paint to match the materials on the penthouse.

unless Tenant (i) contracts with Landlord’s roofing contractor at no more than current market rates to retain the warranties and guaranties with respect to the roof, (ii) obtains the approval of Landlord, in writing, which approval may be granted or withheld by Landlord in its sole discretion, and (iii) pays the cost of any structural support or alterations necessary to secure the Communications Equipment to the Building. The Communications Equipment shall be installed by a contractor reasonably acceptable to both Landlord and Tenant and thereafter shall be properly maintained by Tenant, all at Tenant’s sole expense. At the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, the Communications Equipment shall be removed from the Building at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and that portion of the Building that has been affected by the Communications Equipment shall be returned to the condition it was in prior to the installation of the Communications Equipment. Tenant shall pay all subscription fees, usage charges and hookup and disconnection fees associated with Tenant’s use of the Communications Equipment and Landlord shall have no liability therefor.

Tenant agrees that, in addition to any indemnification provided Landlord in this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify and shall hold Landlord and Boston Properties Limited Partnership, Boston Properties, Inc., Landlord’s managing agent, and their employees, shareholders, partners, officers and directors, harmless from and against all costs, damages, claims, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and any costs of litigation) suffered by or claimed against Landlord, directly or indirectly, based on , arising out of or resulting from Tenant’s use of the Communications Equipment and/or the conduits to connect the Premises to the Communications Equipment. In addition, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for any actual damages suffered by Landlord or any other tenant or occupant of the Building for any cessation or shortages of electrical power or any other systems failure arising from Tenant’s use of the conduits to connect the Premises to the Communications Equipment.
          (c) Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall secure all necessary permits and approvals from all applicable governmental agencies with respect to the size, placement and installation of the Communications Equipment. In the event Tenant is unable to obtain the necessary approvals and permits from any applicable federal, state, county or other local governing authorities for the Communications Equipment, Tenant shall have no remedy, claim, cause of action or recourse against Landlord, nor shall such failure or inability to obtain any necessary permits or approvals provide Tenant the opportunity to terminate this Lease.

Any such relocation shall be performed by Tenant at Landlord’s expense, and in accordance with all of the requirements of this Section. Nothing in this Section shall be construed as granting Tenant any line of sight easement with respect to such Communications Equipment; provided, however, that if Landlord requires that such antenna be relocated in accordance with the preceding two (2) sentences, then Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to provide either (a) the same line of sight for such Communications Equipment as was available prior to such relocation, or (b) a line of sight for such Communications Equipment which is functionally equivalent to that available prior to such relocation.
          (g) It is expressly understood that by granting Tenant the right hereunder, Landlord makes no representation as to the legality of such Communications Equipment or its installation. In the event that any federal, state, county, regulatory or other authority requires the removal or relocation of such Communications Equipment, Tenant shall remove or relocate such antenna at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and Landlord shall under no circumstances be liable to Tenant therefor.
          (h) The Communications Equipment may be used by Tenant and its affiliates, Parent, or permitted assignees or sublessees, only in the conduct of such party’s customary business in the Premises.

          (d) The term of the lease for the Second Option Space shall expire at the same time as the Lease Term for the initial Premises. In no event shall Tenant have the right to lease less than all of the Second Option Space.
          (e) Tenant’s leasing of the Second Option Space shall be on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, including escalations, and additional rent, on a per rentable square foot basis, except that the base rent for the Second Option Space shall be the then prevailing fair market rent for the Second Option Space determined as set forth in Section 29.1(h) below and

prevailing market allowances or other concessions shall be determined pursuant to Section 29.1(h) below. All Leasehold Work conducted by Tenant shall be in accordance with the applicable provisions of Exhibit B and Article IX hereof.
          (f) Landlord’s Second Option Space Notice shall include the annual base rent for the Second Option Space, which shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the prevailing fair market rent for the Second Option Space.
          (g) In the event Tenant does not agree that the base rent set forth in the Landlord’s Second Option Space Notice reflects one hundred percent (100%) of the prevailing fair market rent for the Second Option Space, then Tenant may indicate such disagreement in the Second Option Space Exercise Notice and the prevailing fair market rent for the Second Option Space will be determined in accordance with the procedure set forth in Paragraphs 1(b) and 1(c) of Rider No. 1 to this Lease. Prevailing market abatements, allowances or other concessions shall apply with respect to the Second Option Space as mutually agreed to by the parties in calculating fair market rent.

pursuant to the terms and conditions of Rider No. 1. In addition, Tenant’s exercise of such right shall be subject to and in accordance with the following terms and conditions:
          (a) Landlord shall notify Tenant of the availability of the Additional Space as it has knowledge of the availability.
          (b) The annual base rent with respect to the Additional Space shall be at the then prevailing fair market rent for the Additional Space. For purposes of this Section 30.1(b), the term “prevailing fair market rent” shall be determined as set forth in Rider No. 1 to this Lease.

In the event Tenant agrees to lease the Additional Space within such fifteen (15) business day period, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly execute an amendment to the Lease indicating the location and configuration of the Additional Space. The number of square feet of rentable area of the Premises shall be measured and calculated by Landlord’s architect and shall be set forth in the amendment to the Lease.

          (g) Tenant shall be obligated to pay additional rent with respect to the Additional Space in accordance with the provisions of Article IV of this Lease.
          (h) In the event Tenant does not agree to lease the Additional Space within the fifteen (15) business day period provided in Section 30.1(d) above or if Tenant fails to timely notify Landlord of its election to lease the Additional Space, then Tenant’s rights under this Article shall be

null and void and of no further force or effect with respect only to that particular instance of offering of the Additional Space and Landlord shall have the right to lease such space to any other person or entity upon any terms and conditions which Landlord desires, in its discretion. Nothing in this subparagraph (h) shall operate to terminate Tenant’s continuing right of first offer with respect to Landlord’s future offerings for lease of any portions of the second (2nd) and third (3rd) floors of the Building in accordance with the provisions of this Article XXX.
          (i) The term of the lease for such Additional Space shall be coterminous with the Lease Term, or the applicable Renewal Term.
          (j) Upon the timely exercise by Tenant of its right to lease the Additional Space, the Additional Space shall be considered to be part of the “Premises” for all purposes under this Lease, except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Section 30.1.
          (k) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event Tenant exercises its Contraction Option pursuant to Article XXXI, then Tenant’s right to Lease any Additional Space pursuant to this Article XXX shall lapse and be of no further force or effect.
     30.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Tenant is in monetary default or a material non-monetary Event of Default under the Lease on the date Landlord’s notice is given to Tenant by Landlord, or at any time thereafter but prior to the commencement of the term for such Additional Space, and if such monetary default or material non-monetary Event of Default is not cured within the applicable notice and cure period, if any, provided in this Lease, then, at Landlord’s option, Tenant’s right to lease the Additional Space shall lapse and be of no further force or effect.
     30.3 Tenant’s right under this Article XXX is subject to any expansion rights of any other tenant formally granted and executed, prior to the Effective Date with respect to such tenant’s right to lease the Additional Space.
     30.4 Tenant’s right under this Article XXX is personal to ComScore, Inc. and may be exercised only by ComScore, Inc., and not by any assignee or other subtenant of ComScore, Inc. other than an Affiliate of Tenant or a Parent of Tenant with respect to ComScore, Inc.
     30.5 ComScore, Inc. shall not be entitled to exercise its rights under this Article XXX to lease any Additional Space if at the time Tenant would otherwise be entitled to exercise its rights, ComScore, Inc. or any Parent of Tenant or Affiliate of Tenant with respect to ComScore, Inc. is occupying less than fifty percent (50%) of the then-current Premises.
     30.6 No abatements, allowances or other concessions shall apply with respect to the Additional Space, except as otherwise may be agreed by the parties in calculating the prevailing fair market rent (including a tenant improvement allowance as may be agreed to by the parties, if any).

ARTICLE XXXI
TENANT’S CONTRACTION OPTION
     31.1 (a) Tenant shall have a one-time option (the “Contraction Option”), exercisable as set forth in this Article XXXI, to reduce the size of the Premises by the rentable square feet in one (1) full floor of the Building, which space shall be located on the lowest floor occupied by Tenant, and if such space located on the lowest floor does not constitute the rentable square feet in one (1) hill floor of the Building, then such space shall include space on the next Lowest floor occupied by Tenant (collectively, the “Contraction Space”), provided that such space shall be configured in a manner reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant. Tenant shall exercise its Contraction Option by (i) giving Landlord an irrevocable written notice of the exercise thereof (“Contraction Notice”), and at anytime after the Effective Date but in no event later than the last day of the 57th month of the Term following the Lease Commencement Date, and (ii) paying the Contraction Fee (as hereinafter defined) no later than sixty (60) days prior to the Contraction Effective Date (as hereinafter defined). In the event that (i) the Contraction Notice and the Contraction Fee are not given to Landlord in a timely manner, (ii) a monetary or material non-monetary default has occurred and is continuing on the date Tenant gives its Contraction Notice or on the Contraction Effective Date, or (iii) Tenant exercises its option to lease the First Option Space, then, in either of such events, Tenant’s Contraction Option shall be null and void and of no further force or effect and this Lease shall continue with respect to the entire Premises, including the Contraction Space. If the Contraction Notice is given timely and the Contraction Fee is made timely (and Tenant has not exercised its option to lease the First Option Space), this Lease shall terminate solely with respect to the Contraction Space on the Contraction Effective Date.
          (b) The “Contraction Fee” shall mean an amount equal to (A) the then unamortized portion of the Improvement Allowance, any free rent (or Converted Portion) granted under this Lease, and all brokerage commissions, as allocated to the Contraction Space, as if such costs were amortized over a ten (10) year period with interest at the rate of nine percent (9%) per annum, plus (B) the present value at nine percent (9%) of all outstanding Additional Improvements Allowance Rent Payments allocated to the Contraction Space that would have been payable through the expiration of the Lease Term had Tenant not exercised the Contraction Option.
          (c) The effective date (the “Contraction Effective Date”) of the reduction in the Premises pursuant to the Contraction Option shall be on the last day of the 69th month following the Lease Commencement Date for the initial Premises.
          (d) In the event Tenant timely exercises its Contraction Option, then (i) as of the Contraction Effective Date, the Premises shall be reduced by the Contraction Space, and Tenant shall not have any further right to lease the Contraction Space, (ii) Tenant’s right to lease the Second Option Space pursuant to Article XXVIII, and any Additional Space pursuant to Article XXX shall lapse and be of no further force or effect.

          (f) Tenant’s right under this Article XXXI is personal to ComScore, Inc. and may be exercised only by ComScore, Inc., and not by any assignee or other subtenant of ComScore, Inc. other than an Affiliate of Tenant or a Parent of Tenant with respect to ComScore, Inc.
          (g) In the event Tenant elects to exercise the Contraction Option, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly execute an amendment to this Lease indicating the location and configuration of the remaining Premises.
ARTICLE XXXII
TENANT’S TERMINATION OPTION
     32.1 Subject to the provisions of this Article XXXII, Tenant shall have two (2) onetime rights, exercisable at its option, to terminate this Lease upon the following terms and conditions:
          (a) Solely in the event Landlord is unable to deliver the Second Option Space in a location in the Building pursuant to Article XXIX, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease (the “Option Space Lease Termination Option”) effective on the last day of the 84th month of the term of the Lease following the Lease Commencement Date (the “Option Space Lease Termination Effective Date”). Tenant shall exercise its Option Space Lease Termination Option by (i) giving Landlord an irrevocable written notice of the exercise thereof (“Option Space Lease Termination Notice”), no event later than the last day of the 72nd month of the Term following the Lease Commencement Date, and (ii) paying the Termination Payment (as hereinafter defined) no later than sixty (60) days prior to the Option Space Lease Termination Effective Date. In the event that (i) the Option Space Lease Termination Notice and the Termination Payment are not given to Landlord in a timely manner, or (ii) if a monetary or material non-monetary default has occurred and is continuing on the date Tenant gives its Option Space Lease Termination Notice or on the Option Space Lease Termination Effective Date, then Tenant’s Option Space Lease Termination Option shall be null and void and of no further force or effect and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If the Option Space Lease Termination Notice is given timely and the Termination Payment is given timely, this Lease shall terminate on the Option Space Lease Termination Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Tenant exercises its Contraction Option pursuant to Article XXXI, then Tenant’s Option Space Lease Termination Option pursuant to this Section 32.1(a) shall lapse and be of no further force or effect.
          (b) Tenant also shall have the right to terminate this Lease (the “Year 8 Termination Option”) effective on the last day of the 93rd month of the term of the Lease following the Lease Commencement Date (the “Year 8 Termination Effective Date”). Tenant

          (c) The “Termination Payment” shall be an amount equal to (A) the then unamortized portion of the Improvement Allowance, any free rent (and Converted Portion) granted hereunder, and all brokerage commissions, as if such costs were amortized over a ten (10) year period with interest at the rate of nine percent (9%) per annum, plus (B) six (6) months of the then current annual base rent applicable to the Premises (as such rent would be escalated for the six months period starting with the applicable effective date of the termination of this Lease), plus (C) the present value at nine percent (9%) of all outstanding Additional Improvements Allowance Rent Payments that would have been payable through the expiration of the Lease Term had Tenant not exercised the applicable Termination Option.

RIDER NO. 1
RENEWAL
     THIS RIDER NO. 1 — RENEWAL (“Rider No. 1”) is attached to and made a part of that certain Deed of Lease dated as of the 21st day of December, 2007 (“Lease”), by and between SOUTH OF MARKET, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”) and ComScore, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”). The terms used in this Rider No. 1 which are defined in the Lease have the same meanings as provided in the Lease.
     WITNESSETH, that for and in consideration of Tenant’s entering into the Lease described above, and other good and valuable consideration, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the right to renew the initial term of the Lease upon the following tents and conditions:
     1. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the conditional right, exercisable at Tenant’s option, to renew the term of the Lease for two (2) additional terms of five (5) years each, each a “Renewal Term” and collectively, the “Renewal Terms.” If timely exercised and if the conditions applicable thereto have been satisfied, the applicable Renewal Term shall commence immediately following the end of the initial tent provided in Section 2.1 of the Lease, or the end of the prior Renewal Term, as the ease may be. The right of renewal herein granted to Tenant shall be subject to, and shall be exercised in accordance with, the following tents and conditions:
          (a) Tenant shall exercise its right with respect to the Renewal Term by giving Landlord an irrevocable written notice of the exercise thereof (“Renewal Option Notice”) not less than twelve (12) months and not more than eighteen (18) months prior to the expiration of the initial term of the Lease or the prior Renewal Term, as the case may be. In the event that a Renewal Option Notice is not given in a timely manner, Tenant’s right of renewal with respect to that Renewal Term and any subsequent potential Renewal Tents shall lapse and be of no further force or effect. If a monetary or material non-monetary default under the Lease has occurred and is continuing on the date the Renewal Option Notice is given or any time thereafter, on or before the commencement date of the Renewal Term, then, at Landlord’s option, the Renewal Option Notice shall be totally ineffective and Tenant’s right of renewal as to the Renewal Term in question and any subsequent potential Renewal Terms shall lapse and be of no further force or effect.
          (b) Promptly following Landlord’s timely receipt of the Renewal Option Notice for the first or second Renewal Term, Landlord and Tenant shall commence negotiations concerning the amount of annual base rent which shall be payable during each year of the applicable Renewal Term and the Lease security that may be required, it being intended that such annual base rent shall be equal to (i) ninety-five percent (95%) of the then prevailing fair market rent for the Premises for the first Renewal Tent, and (ii) one hundred percent (100%) of the then prevailing fair market rent for the Premises for the second Renewal Tent. The parties shall have thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of the relevant Renewal Option Notice in which to mutually agree on the annual

 


 

base rent which shall be payable during each year of the applicable Renewal Tent and the Lease security that may be required.
          (c) The parties shall be obligated to conduct such negotiations in good faith. Among the factors to be considered by the parties during such negotiations shall be (i) the general office rental market for Class A office buildings in the Market Area, (ii) rental rates then being obtained (or quoted if comparables are not readily available) by other building owners for office buildings of comparable size, location and quality to the Building, (iii) the rental rates then being obtained by Landlord for comparable office space in “as is” condition in the Building during the immediately preceding nine (9) months from the date of Tenant’s notice as evidenced by completed lease transactions, (iv) escalations and pass throughs of Operating Expenses as provided in the Lease, (v) concession packages then being obtained (or offered if comparables are not readily available) by other building owners for office buildings in the Market Area of comparable size, location and quality to the Building, (vi) concession packages then being obtained by Landlord for comparable office space in “as-is” condition in the Building, (vii) consideration of what would constitute an appropriate security deposit securing the performance of Tenant’s obligations with respect to the Renewal Term, given Tenant’s creditworthiness at the time, any out-of-pocket expenditures by Landlord in connection with such renewal, and (viii) paid parking, and prevailing market conditions at the time, and Tenant shall be required to post any such security as a condition to the Renewal Term. If the parties agree on the base rent payable during each year of the Renewal Term, they shall promptly execute an amendment to the Lease stating the rent so agreed upon.
          (d) If, during such thirty (30) day period referred to in subparagraph (b) above, the parties are unable to agree on the base rent payable during the Renewal Term, then the (i) fair market rent and Lease security and (ii) the related fair market concessions, abatements and allowances, if any, that will be applicable thereto shall be determined in accordance with the procedure set forth in this subparagraph (c). Within ten (10) days after expiration of such thirty (30) day period, the parties shall appoint an independent, unaffiliated real estate broker (“Broker”) who shall be mutually agreeable to both Landlord and Tenant, shall be a member of the National Association of Realtors or the Greater Washington, D.C. Association of Realtors, and shall have at least ten (10) years relevant experience in office rentals in the Market Area. If the parties are unable to agree on a Broker within such ten (10) day period, then each party, within five (5) days after the expiration of the aforesaid ten (10) day period, shall appoint a Broker (with the same qualifications) and the two (2) Brokers shall jointly appoint a third Broker with the same qualifications. The Broker or Brokers so appointed then shall determine, within sixty (60) days after the appointment of such Broker or Brokers, the then fair market base rent for the Premises. Among the factors to be considered by the Broker(s) in determining the fair market base rent for the Premises (and related fair market concessions, abatements and allowances, if any, that will be applicable thereto) shall be those factors out in subparagraph (b) above. The figure arrived at by the Broker (or the average of the figures arrived at by the three Brokers, if applicable) shall be used as the fair market base rent for the Renewal Term. If the three broker method is chosen, then if any Broker’s estimate of fair market base rent (taking into account any concessions, abatements or allowances applicable thereto) is either (x) less than ninety percent (90%) of the average figure or (y) more than one hundred ten percent (110%) of such average, then the fair market rent will be either (1) the average of the remaining two

-2-


 

(2) Brokers’ figures falling within such a range of percentages, (2) the remaining Broker’s figure which is within such range of percentages or (3) if none of the figures are within such range, the average of the three (3) Brokers’ figures. Landlord and Tenant shall each bear the cost of the Broker selected by it and shall share equally the cost of the third Broker. In the event Landlord and Tenant mutually agree on a sole Broker as set forth above (i.e., Landlord and Tenant do not use the three broker method also set forth in this subparagraph (d)), Landlord and Tenant shall share equally in the cost of such sole Broker.
          (e) During the Renewal Term, all the terms, conditions, covenants and agreements set forth in the Lease shall continue to apply and be binding upon Landlord and Tenant, except that (i) the annual base rent payable during each year of the Renewal Term shall be the amount agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant in the manner provided in Paragraphs 1(e) or (d) above, and (ii) in no event shall Tenant have the right to renew the term of the Lease, or any renewal term thereof, beyond the expiration of the second Renewal Term, and (iii) no abatements, allowances or other concessions shall apply during the Renewal Term, except to the extent otherwise agreed to by the parties in accordance with this Rider, and (iv) Landlord shall be redefined for each Renewal Term, based on a new and current calendar year.
     2. Tenant’s rights under this Rider No. 1 are personal to ComScore, Inc. and may be exercised only by ComScore, Inc. and shall not be exercisable by any assignee or subtenant of ComScore, Inc. except a Parent of Tenant or Affiliate of Tenant, and shall not be exercisable by any other assignee or subtenant of ComScore, Inc.
     3. Tenant shall be entitled to renew the Lease Term for less than the entire Premises, provided, however, that (i) Tenant shall not be entitled to renew the Lease Term for less than two (2) full floors in the Building; and (ii) any space that is not renewed by Tenant shall be either (x) all of Tenant’s Premises on any floor in the Building or (y) in a configuration approved by Landlord in its sole discretion.

Landlord shall give Tenant timely written notice of any claim of Tenant Delay.
          (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant shall be actually materially delayed in completing the Leasehold Improvements, except for normal and typical minor delays as part of the construction process, as a result of: (i) Landlord’s failure to comply with any deadline specified in this Exhibit B (ii) Landlord’s failure to pay within fifteen (15) days of the date when due any portion of the Allowance or Additional Allowance, for which the Tenant has timely and properly submitted its request therefor pursuant to the provisions of this Exhibit B or (iii) the failure by the Base Building Contractor, the Base Building Architect, the Base Building Engineers, or any employee, agent or contractor of the Landlord to perform the Base Building Work in substantial conformance in all material respects with the Base Building Plans, and with respect to all of the foregoing events, only to the extent such failure actually delays completion of the Leasehold Work in any material respect, then for purposes of determining the Lease Commencement Date, the Leasehold Improvements shall be delayed on a day for day basis accordingly (which is referred to

SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT
     THIS SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), made and entered into as of this 23rd day of January, 2008 by and among COMSCORE, INC., a Delaware corporation, having an office at 11465 Sunset Hills Road, Suite 200, Reston, Virginia 20190 (“Tenant”), SOUTH OF MARKET LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, having an office at c/o Boston Properties Limited Partnership, 111 Huntington Avenue, Boston, Massachusetts 02199-7610 (the “Landlord”) and THE BANK OF NEW YORK, a New York corporation, having an office at One Wall Street, New York, New York 10286, as Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders (each a “Lender” and collectively the “Lenders”) under that certain Construction Loan Agreement hereinafter defined (“Administrative Agent”).
W I T N E S S E T H
     WHEREAS, by Lease dated December 21, 2007 (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Lease”), Landlord leased and rented to Tenant certain premises located at 11950 Democracy Drive, South of Market, Reston, Virginia (the “Property”), which Property is more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof and
     WHEREAS, the Property is or is to be encumbered by a deed of trust or deeds of trust or other similar security agreement (collectively, the “Security Deed”) in favor of or to be assigned to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders pursuant to the terms of a Construction Loan Agreement dated as of November 21, 2006 by and among Landlord, Administrative Agent and the Lenders party thereto (the “Construction Loan Agreement”); and
     WHEREAS, Administrative Agent and the Lenders do not wish to make the loan or loans secured by the Security Deed or to consent to Tenant’s Lease, unless Tenant subordinates the Lease and Tenant’s rights thereunder to the lien and provisions of the Security Deed; and
     WHEREAS, pursuant to and under the terms set forth in the Security Deed, Landlord has assigned to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders all of its right, title and interest in the Lease and the rents payable thereunder to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders as security for the performance of Landlord’s obligations secured by the Security Deed; and
     WHEREAS, Tenant and Administrative Agent desire hereby to establish certain rights, safeguards, obligations and priorities with respect to their respective interests by means of this Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement;

     NOW THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and promises herein contained, and other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Tenant and Administrative Agent agree as follows:
     1. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Lease and the rights of Tenant thereunder are and at all times hereafter shall be subject and subordinate to the lien of the Security Deed and to all of the terms, conditions and provisions thereof, to all advances made or to be made thereunder, to the full extent of the principal sum and interest thereon from time to time secured thereby, and to any renewal, substitution, extension, modification, consolidation, spreader or replacement thereof, including any increase in the indebtedness secured thereby or any supplements thereto, with the same force and effect as if the Security Deed had been executed, delivered and recorded prior to the execution and delivery of the Lease. In the event that Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other person acquires title to the Property pursuant to the exercise of any remedy provided for in the Security Deed or by reason of the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure (the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and any other such person and their participants, successors and assigns being referred to herein as the “Purchaser”), provided that such Purchaser recognizes and takes subject to the terms of this Agreement, Tenant covenants and agrees to attorn to and recognize and be bound to Purchaser as its new Landlord, and subject to the proviso in Paragraph 2 of this Agreement, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct Lease between Tenant and Purchaser, except that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Lease, the provisions of the Security Deed will govern with respect to the disposition of proceeds of insurance policies and condemnation awards.
     2. So long as the Lease is in full force and effect, the term of the Lease has commenced, the Tenant (or its affiliates, successors, assigns or sublessees) is in possession of the premises demised under the Lease, and Tenant is not in default under any provision of the Lease or this Agreement, and no event has occurred which has continued to exist for a period of time (after notice, if any, required by the Lease) as would entitle Landlord to terminate the Lease or would cause without further action by Landlord, the termination of the Lease or would entitle Landlord to dispossess the Tenant thereunder:
          (a) The right of possession of Tenant (or its affiliates, successors, assigns or sublessees) to the leased premises shall not be terminated or disturbed by any steps or proceedings taken by Administrative Agent or the Lenders in the exercise of any of its rights under the Security Deed;
          (b) The Lease shall not be terminated or affected by said exercise of any remedy provided for under the Security Deed, and Administrative Agent hereby covenants that any sale by it of the Property pursuant to the exercise of any rights and remedies under the Security Deed or otherwise, shall be made subject to the Lease and the rights of Tenant thereunder.
     3. In no event shall Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Purchaser be:

-2-


 

          (a) liable for any accrued obligation of, or any act or omission of, the Landlord or any prior landlord;
          (b) liable for the return of any security deposit which was delivered to Landlord, but which was not subsequently delivered to Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Purchaser;
          (c) subject to any offsets, defenses or counterclaims which the Tenant might have against Landlord or any prior landlord;
          (d) bound by any payment of rent or additional rent which Tenant might have paid to Landlord or any prior landlord for more than the current month; or
          (e) bound by any action listed in Paragraph 7(a) through (f) below made without Administrative Agent’s or such other Purchaser’s prior written consent.
     4. Prior to obtaining title to the Property by way of foreclosure, deed in lieu thereof, or otherwise, neither Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be obligated to undertake or complete any construction, renovation, addition or capital improvements to the Property or the premises demised under the Lease, nor to pay or reimburse the cost of any construction or other special landlord work (either presently underway or hereafter to be undertaken), nor to make any repairs to the Property or to the premises demised under the Lease as a result of any fire or other casualty or by reason of condemnation, and whether or not the same is set forth in the Lease or any other agreement, nor, so long as the Security Deed remains outstanding and unpaid, shall the proceeds of any insurance or condemnation awards be applied other than as provided for in the Security Deed and the Construction Loan Agreement.
     5. Tenant agrees to give prompt written notice to Administrative Agent of any default by Landlord under the Lease which would entitle Tenant to cancel the Lease or abate the rent payable thereunder, and agrees that notwithstanding any provision of the Lease, no notice of cancellation thereof given on behalf of Tenant shall be effective unless Administrative Agent has received said notice and has failed within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt thereof to cure Landlord’s default, or if the default cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, has failed to commence and to diligently pursue the cure of Landlord’s default which gave rise to such right of cancellation or abatement, provided that such cure is completed within ninety (90) days. Tenant further agrees to give such notices to any successor of Administrative Agent, provided that such successor shall have given written notice to Tenant of its acquisition of Administrative Agent’s interest in the Security Deed and designated the address to which such notices are to be sent.
     6. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord will execute and deliver to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders Assignments of Leases and Rents conveying the rentals under the Lease as additional security for the loan secured by the Security Deed, and Tenant hereby expressly consents to such Assignments.

     7. Tenant agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, do any of the following, and any such purported action without such consent shall be void as against Administrative Agent and the Lenders:
          (a) modify or amend in any material respect or terminate the Lease; or
          (b) enter into any extensions or renewals of the Lease which are not expressly contemplated by the terms of the Lease in such a way as to reduce the rent, accelerate rent payments, shorten the term of the lease, or change any renewal option; or
          (c) prepay any of the rents, additional rents or other sums due under the Lease for more than one (1) month in advance of the due dates thereof; or
          (d) tender or accept a surrender of the Lease; or
          (e) assign the Lease or sublet the premises demised under the Lease or any part thereof except pursuant to the provisions of the Lease; or
          (f) subordinate or permit subordination of the Lease to any lien other than the Security Deed.
     8. Landlord hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Tenant to pay to Administrative Agent, or to such person or firm designated by Administrative Agent, all rent and other monies due and to become due to Landlord under the Lease after notice from Administrative Agent to Tenant that there has occurred and is continuing an Event of Default under the Security Deed. Tenant shall be entitled to rely upon any such notice received from Administrative Agent, and shall have no duty to inquire concerning the truth or efficacy of any such notice or to honor any contrary notice or demand received from Landlord. Tenant shall, after such notice from Administrative Agent, pay to Administrative Agent, or to such person or firm designated by Administrative Agent, all rent and other monies due and to become due to Landlord under the Lease. Such receipt of rent by Administrative Agent or any other party shall not relieve Landlord of its obligations under the Lease, and Tenant shall continue to look to Landlord only for performance thereof; provided, however, that Landlord hereby agrees that any rent or other sums due from Tenant to Landlord under the Lease but which are paid to Administrative Agent or to any other party pursuant to this provision shall be recognized by Landlord as Tenant’s satisfaction of its obligation to pay such rent or other sums pursuant to the Lease. No person or entity who exercises a right, arising under the Security Deed or any assignment of the Lease, to receive the rents, additional rents or other sums payable by Tenant under the Lease shall thereby become obligated to Tenant for the performance of any of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements of Landlord under the Lease unless and until such person or entity acquires title to the Property.
     9. Tenant agrees that if Administrative Agent or the Lenders acquire title to the Property as a result of foreclosure of the Security Deed, the acceptance of a deed in lieu of such foreclosure,

-4-


 

or obtaining control of the Property pursuant to the remedies contained in the Security Deed, the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia or otherwise, Tenant shall have no recourse to any assets of Administrative Agent or any Lender other than the interest of such party in the Property.
     10. Tenant agrees to certify in writing to Administrative Agent, upon request, whether or not Tenant has any actual knowledge of any default on the part of Landlord exists under the Lease and the nature of any such default.
     11. The foregoing provisions shall be self-operative and effective without the execution of any further instruments on the part of either party hereto. However, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such other instruments as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request in order to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement.
     12. From and after payment in full of the loan secured by the Security Deed and the recordation of a release or satisfaction thereof, without the transfer of the Property to Administrative Agent or the Lenders as a Purchaser, this Agreement shall become void and of no further force or effect.
     13. The term “Administrative Agent” as used herein shall include the successors and assigns of Administrative Agent and any person, party or entity which shall become the owner of the Property by reason of foreclosure of the Security Deed or the acceptance of a deed in lieu of a foreclosure of the Security Deed or otherwise. The term “Lenders” as used herein shall mean and include the present Lenders under the Construction Loan Agreement and any such Lender’s successors and assigns. The term “Landlord” as used herein shall mean and include the present landlord under the Lease and such landlord’s predecessors and successors in interest under the Lease. The term “Property” as used herein shall mean the Property, the improvements now or hereafter located thereon and the estates therein encumbered by the Security Deed.
     14. The agreements herein contained shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their respective participants, successors, and assigns, and, without limiting such, the agreements of Administrative Agent shall specifically be binding upon any Purchaser of the Property at foreclosure or at a sale under power.
     15. This Agreement may not be modified other than by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors.
     16. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and each of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.
     17. If any term or provision of this Agreement shall to any extent be held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms and provisions hereof shall not be affected thereby, but each term and provision hereof shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

     18. All notices, demands or requests, and responses thereto, required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or served for all purposes when sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or nationwide commercial courier service, and addressed to the party as provided below or at such other place as such party may from time to time designate in a notice to the other parties.
