otherwise preventing or enjoining a party from proceeding with its obligations under this Lease,
restraint by or of governmental, civil or military authorities, or any other causes beyond the
reasonable control of the parties.
(b) Substantial Completion. For purposes of this Lease, each portion of the Project
Improvements shall be considered substantially completed (which, together with any other
phrase similar to, or other form of, "substantially completed," is herein called "Substantially

Tenant access to the Demised Premises (provided that such access is permitted by all applicable

to Landlord the Lease Commencement Date Memorandum shall be deemed an admission that
the Lease Commencement Date Memorandum is accurate, unless Tenant has delivered
objections thereto to Landlord within the 10 day period.
(b) Delays in Substantial Completion of Project Improvements. It is anticipated that
the Project Improvements shall be Substantially Completed in accordance with this Lease b y the
Scheduled Substantial Completion Date. In the event that, unless any such delay was due to an
Excused Delay, the Project Improvements are not Substantially Completed by the date which is
90 days after the Scheduled Substantial Completion Date (the "First Delayed Scheduled
Substantial Completion Date"), then all Base Rent hereunder shall abate for one day for each
day from the First Delayed Scheduled Substantial Completion Date to the actual date on which
the Project Improvements are Substantially Completed in accordance with this Lease (the
"Actual Substantial Completion Date"). In the event that, subject to Excused Delays, the
Project Improvements are not Substantially Completed by the date which is 180 days after the

inspection and development of the list of the Punch List Items (the "Punch List"). Landlord
shall thereafter promptly commence material completion of the Punch List Items within 30 days
after the Punch List has been finalized, and shall continue to pursue such completion with
- 6 -
commercially reasonable diligence and speed, but no later than 60 d ays after the Punch List has
been finalized (subject to Excused Delays).

which Landlord commences vertical construction of the Project Improvements, and continuing

semi-annual period, and denominator of which is 180; provided, however, the amount of

Financing set forth as a part of the Project Costs increases after the Effective Date, then the

Section 5.2 Tenant's Right to Contest Impositions. Tenant shall have the right to
contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any Imposition by appropriate proceedings
diligently conducted in good faith. If permitted by law, Tenant may postpone or defer payment
of such Imposition if (a) neither the Demised Premises nor any portion thereof would, by reason
of such postponement or deferment, be in danger of being forfeited or lost, and (b) unless
Landlord and Tenant have reasonably agreed as to an alternate form of security, Tenant shall
have deposited with Landlord cash or a certificate of deposit payable to Landlord issued by a
national bank or federal savings and loan association reasonably acceptable to Landlord in the
amount of one hundred ten and 00/100 percent (110.00%) of the Imposition so contested and

proceedings. Immediately upon the termination of any such proceedings, Tenant shall pay the
