AGREEMENTS

In consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, Sublandlord and Subtenant agree as follows:

1.                  Sublease of Sublease Premises; Sublease Term. Sublandlord hereby subleases to Subtenant the Sublease Premises. Sublandlord shall tender possession of the Sublease Premises to Subtenant on the date that is one business day following the later to occur of (a) the date this Sublease is fully executed, and (b) the date Landlord provides written consent to this Sublease (such later date being the “Sublease Commencement Date”). The term for the Sublease shall commence on the Sublease Commencement Date and continue until October 31, 2026, subject to adjustment and earlier termination as provided in this Sublease (the “Sublease Term”). Within ten days following Sublandlord’s request therefor, Subtenant shall execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto confirming the Sublease Commencement Date and the dates that Base Rent (defined below) shall increase during the Sublease Term.

2.                  Rent.

2.1              Base Rent. Subject to the abatement of Base Rent provided below, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord the following amounts for the following periods of time (“Base Rent”):

*Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided that Subtenant is not in default of this Sublease beyond all applicable notice and cure periods, Base Rent shall be abated during (a) any portion of the Sublease Term that is prior to June 1, 2021 and (b) the first 30 days of the Sublease Term that occurs on or after June 1, 2021 of the Sublease Term, e.g., if the Sublease Commencement Date is June 21, 2021, Base Rent shall be abated through July 20, 2021. Commencing with the first day after the end of the abatement period referred to above, Tenant shall make Base Rent payments for any remaining partial calendar month and on the first day of the first full calendar month thereafter shall make Base Rent payments as otherwise provided in this Sublease. Notwithstanding such abatement of Base Rent (c) all other sums due under this Sublease, including Additional Rent, after hours HVAC, charges, etc. shall be payable as provided in this Sublease, and (d) any increases in Base Rent set forth in this Sublease shall occur on the dates scheduled therefor. The first monthly installment of Base Rent (with respect to the first full calendar month of the Lease Term for which Base Rent is due and payable without abatement) is due upon execution of this Sublease by Tenant; thereafter, Base Rent shall be payable on the first day of each calendar month.

As used herein, the term “Sublease Month” means each calendar month during the Sublease Term (and if the Sublease Commencement Date does not occur on the first day of a calendar month, the period from the Sublease Commencement Date to the first day of the next calendar month shall be included in the first Sublease Month for purposes of determining the duration of the Sublease Term and the monthly Base Rent rate applicable for such partial month).

2.2            Additional Rent. Subtenant further agrees to pay Subtenant’s Share (defined below) of the Operating Expenses, Subtenant’s Share of Electrical Cost and Subtenant’s Share of all other sums required to be paid by Sublandlord in its capacity as tenant under the Base Lease (“Additional Rent”) for the period between the Sublease Commencement Date and the last day of the Sublease Term. Such Additional Rent shall be payable on the first day of each month based upon a reasonable estimate provided to Subtenant by Sublandlord of the other sums payable by Sublandlord for that month under the Base Lease. Within 15 days after the actual amount of other sums due under the Base Lease is known by Sublandlord, Sublandlord shall notify Subtenant thereof and of Subtenant’s portion thereof. If Subtenant has overpaid rent for the period in question, such overpayment shall be credited against the next installments of rent due or returned by Sublandlord to Subtenant, or if Subtenant has underpaid rent, then Subtenant shall pay the amount of such underpayment to Sublandlord within five days after the receipt of such notice. Payment of Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be made to Sublandlord at its address written below or at such other place Sublandlord may designate in writing, without any offset or deduction whatsoever. Subtenant agrees to pay directly to Landlord (or, if Landlord is unwilling to bill and receive payments directly from Subtenant, to Sublandlord) any excess electricity usage charges and expenses allocable to Subtenant’s usage thereof in the Sublease Premises as well as any other charges allocable to Subtenant’s usage thereof in the Sublease Premises all in accordance with the terms of the Base Lease. Subtenant and Sublandlord are knowledgeable and experienced in commercial transactions and agree that, subject to the terms of Base Lease, the provisions of this Sublease for determining charges, amounts and Additional Rent payable by Subtenant are commercially reasonable and valid even though such methods may not state a precise mathematical formula for determining such charges. As used herein, “Subtenant’s Share” means, for the purposes of calculating the portion of Operating Expenses and Electrical Cost required to be paid by Subtenant under this Sublease, the percentage obtained by dividing (a) the number of rentable square feet in the Sublease Premises as stated above by (b) the number of rentable square feet in the Premises (i.e., 11,199 rentable square feet). Based on the current rentable square feet in the Sublease Premises and the Premises as of the date of this Sublease, Subtenant’s Share equals 95.54%. The Base Operating Year for purposes of calculating Subtenant’s Share of Operating Expenses required to be paid by Subtenant under this Sublease is 2021. All Base Rent, Additional Rent, and all other sums payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord for the Sublease Premises under this Sublease shall be referred to herein collectively as “Rent.”

3.                  Acceptance. Subtenant acknowledges that it has inspected the Sublease Premises demised hereunder, and is fully satisfied with their condition and accepts the same, “AS IS.” Sublandlord has made no representation or warranties of any nature whatsoever with regard to the Sublease Premises, and Sublandlord shall have no obligation or duty with regard to preparation of the Sublease Premises for occupancy by Subtenant. Sublandlord shall not be required to perform any demolition work or tenant finish-work therein or to provide any allowances therefor. Sublandlord and Subtenant stipulate that the number of rentable square feet in the Sublease Premises set forth above in this Sublease is correct. Any alterations, additions or improvements to the Sublease Premises shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the Base Lease, including but not limited to Section 9.01 thereof (entitled “Alterations”) and only with Sublandlord’s and Landlord’s (to the extent provided in the Base Lease) prior written approval of the plans and specifications thereunder.

4.                  Base Lease Incorporated. The provisions of the Base Lease are, except as otherwise herein specifically provided, hereby incorporated in this Sublease with the same effect as if entirely rewritten herein, and shall fix the rights and obligations of the parties hereto with respect to the Sublease Premises with the same effect as if Sublandlord and Subtenant were, respectively, the landlord and tenant named in the Base Lease. Subtenant hereby covenants to perform the covenants and undertakings of Sublandlord as tenant under the Base Lease to the extent the same are applicable to the Sublease Premises during the term of this Sublease, and agrees not to do or permit to be done any act which shall result in a violation of any of the terms and conditions of said Base Lease. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, Subtenant is to have the benefit of the covenants and undertakings of Landlord in the Base Lease to the extent the same are applicable to the Sublease Premises during the term of this Sublease. It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that Sublandlord is not in the position to render any of the services or to perform any of the obligations required of Landlord by the terms of this Sublease, and that performance by Sublandlord of its obligations hereunder are conditioned upon due performance by Landlord of its corresponding obligations under the Base Lease. It is further understood and agreed, therefore, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Sublease, Sublandlord shall not be in default under this Sublease for failure to render such services or perform such obligations required by Sublandlord by the terms of this Sublease that are the responsibility of the Landlord under the Base Lease, but Sublandlord agrees to take all responsible measures to insure that Landlord performs said obligations. The term “reasonable measures” shall not include legal action against Landlord for its failure to so perform unless Subtenant agrees to pay all costs and expenses in connection therewith.

5.                Exclusions from Base Lease. Notwithstanding anything in this Sublease to the contrary, Subtenant shall have no rights or benefits under, and Sublandlord shall have no obligation to Subtenant pursuant to, the Excluded Provisions of the Base Lease. As used herein, the term “Excluded Provisions” means the following, except to the extent such provisions are contemplated by or addressed in this Sublease: (a) any provisions that are expressly superseded by or in direct conflict with the provisions of this Sublease; (b) any right on the part of Sublandlord, as Tenant under the Base Lease, to assign the Base Lease or sublet any portion of the Premises other than the Sublease Premises; (c) any right of Sublandlord, as Tenant under the Base Lease, to make alterations and additions to its Premises; (d) any provision of the Base Lease allocating reserved or unreserved parking to Sublandlord, (e) any right on the part of Sublandlord, as Tenant under the Base Lease, to extend the term of the Base Lease; (f) any right on the part of Sublandlord, as Tenant under the Base Lease, to expand the Premises; (g) any right of contraction, cancellation or termination on the part of Sublandlord under the Base Lease, including any right arising from any provisions of the Base Lease relating to casualty or condemnation; (h) any right of first refusal, right of first opportunity, or similar options held by Sublandlord under the Base Lease; (i) any signage or naming rights granted to Sublandlord under the Base Lease; (j) any right on the part of Sublandlord, as Tenant under the Base Lease, to withhold or abate Rent (as defined in the Base Lease) or any other charges or amounts payable by Sublandlord under the Base Lease; (k) any right on the part of Sublandlord, as Tenant under the Base Lease, to avail itself of any arbitration, mediation or other dispute resolution procedures; (1) any provision of the Base Lease that expressly relates solely to any portion of the Premises other than the Sublease Premises; (m) any provisions of the Base Lease relating to the payment of rent or additional rent by Sublandlord; (n) any provisions of the Base Lease constituting representations and warranties made by Sublandlord; and (o) any provisions of the Base Lease constituting or containing indemnifications of any persons by Sublandlord in connection with loss or damage occurring outside the Sublease Premises (provided that the foregoing shall not limit any of the indemnifications made hereunder by Subtenant for the benefit of Sublandlord, nor any indemnifications made in any other agreement by Subtenant for the benefit of Landlord).

6.                  Subordinate to Base Lease. This Sublease is subject and subordinate in all respects to said Base Lease and Subtenant acknowledges that it has received a copy of said Base Lease.

7.                Subtenant’s Covenants/Default. Subtenant covenants and agrees that Subtenant will not do anything in connection with its use and enjoyment of the Sublease Premises that would constitute a Base Lease Default (as hereinafter defined) or omit to do anything that Subtenant is obligated to do under the terms of this Sublease and that would constitute a Base Lease Default. A “Base Lease Default” shall be any act, omission or circumstance with respect to Subtenant’s use and enjoyment of the Sublease Premises that constitutes, after notice and the expiration of any cure periods set forth in the Base Lease, a Default under the Base Lease. A Base Lease Default by Subtenant shall be a default under this Sublease without any additional notice and cure period being required. hi addition, it shall be a default under this Sublease if Subtenant fails to perform any of its obligations under this Sublease, and does not cure any such failure within a period of time that is: (a) the same period of time afforded to Sublandlord under the Base Lease to cure a failure to pay Rent or a monetary default by Subtenant hereunder, and (b) a period of time that is 10 days less than the period of time afforded to Sublandlord under the Base Lease to cure any other non-monetary default by Subtenant hereunder. Sublandlord shall have, as against Subtenant, all the rights Landlord would have against Sublandlord as Tenant under the Base Lease if a Default occurred under the Base Lease and Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord all amounts, costs, losses and/or expenses incurred, abated or foregone by Sublandlord (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in securing this Sublease, including all commissions, allowances, and if this Sublease or any amendment hereto contains any abated Rent granted by Sublandlord as an inducement or concession to secure this Sublease or amendment hereto, the amount of all Rent so abated (and such abated amounts shall be payable immediately by Subtenant to Sublandlord, without any obligation by Sublandlord to provide written notice thereof to Subtenant, and Subtenant’s right to any abated Rent accruing following such Default shall immediately terminate), in each case, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full calendar months remaining in the Sublease Term as of the date of the Default and the denominator of which is the number of months in the Sublease Term. Subtenant agrees, at its sole cost and expense, to comply with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances, building codes and standards, rules and regulations, all court orders, governmental directives, and governmental orders and all interpretations of the foregoing (each a “Law” and collectively, “Laws”) in connection with its use and enjoyment of the Sublease Premises. Interest at the lower of (1) the highest interest rate permitted by Law, or (2) the interest rate set forth in the Base Lease effective upon a default by Sublandlord as Tenant thereunder plus two percent, may be assessed against any past due sums not paid by Subtenant when due from the original due date thereof until paid.

8.                  Use. Subtenant will use and occupy the Sublease Premises solely for general office purposes and in accordance with the use permitted under the Base Lease. Without the prior written consent of Sublandlord and Landlord (to the extent provided in the Base Lease), the Sublease Premises will not be used for any other purposes and will not be used for bitcoin mining or for crypto currency mining.

9.                  Security Deposit. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Sublease, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord a security deposit in the amount of $29,199.35 (the “Security Deposit”), which shall be held by Sublandlord to secure Subtenant’s performance of its obligations under this Sublease. The Security Deposit is not an advance payment of Rent or a measure or limit of Sublandlord’s damages upon Subtenant’s default of this Sublease beyond all applicable notice and cure periods. Sublandlord may, from time to time following Subtenant’s default of this Sublease beyond all applicable notice and cure periods and without prejudice to any other remedy, use all or a part of the Security Deposit to perform any obligation Subtenant fails to perform hereunder. Following any such application of the Security Deposit, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord on demand the amount so applied in order to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Provided that Subtenant has performed all of its obligations hereunder, Sublandlord shall, within 60 days after the expiration of the Sublease Term and Subtenant’s sun-ender of the Sublease Premises in compliance with the provisions of this Sublease, return to Subtenant the portion of the Security Deposit which was not applied to satisfy Subtenant’s obligations. The Security Deposit may be commingled with other funds, and no interest shall be paid thereon. If Sublandlord transfers its interest in the Sublease Premises and the transferee assumes Sublandlord’s obligations under this Sublease, then Sublandlord may assign the Security Deposit to the transferee and Sublandlord thereafter shall have no further liability for the return of the Security Deposit. The rights and obligations of Sublandlord and Subtenant under this Section 9 are subject to any other requirements and conditions imposed by laws applicable to the Security Deposit.

11.              Holdover. Subtenant shall promptly vacate the Sublease Premises upon expiration or termination of this Sublease and surrender the Sublease Premises in the condition required under the Base Lease. Any holding over by Subtenant beyond the expiration date of this Sublease shall be deemed unlawful unless expressly consented to by Sublandlord in writing, and Sublandlord shall be entitled to any and all remedies in law or in equity by reason of such unlawful holding over by Subtenant.

This Sublease (and, to the extent incorporated in the Sublease, the Base Lease) contains all of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions, conditions, warranties and understandings relating to the leasing of the Sublease Premises and Sublandlord’s and Subtenant’s obligations in connection therewith, and neither Sublandlord nor any agent or representative of Sublandlord has made or is making, and Subtenant in executing and delivering this Sublease is not relying upon, any warranties, representations, promises or statements whatsoever, except to the extent expressly set forth in this Sublease. All understandings and agreements, if any, heretofore had between the parties are merged in this Sublease, which alone fully and completely expresses the agreement of the parties. The failure of any party hereto to insist in any instance upon the strict keeping, observance or performance of any covenant, agreement, term, provision or condition of this Sublease or to exercise any election herein contained shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment for the future of such covenant, agreement, term, provision, condition or election, but the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect. No waiver or modification of any covenant, agreement, term, provision or condition of this Sublease shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in writing and signed by Subtenant and Sublandlord. No surrender of possession of the Sublease Premises or of any part thereof or of any remainder of the Sublease Term shall release Subtenant from any of its obligations hereunder unless such surrender is approved by Sublandlord in its sole discretion in writing. The receipt and retention by Sublandlord of monthly Base Rent from anyone other than Subtenant shall not be deemed a waiver of the breach by Subtenant of any covenant, agreement, term or provision of this Sublease, or as the acceptance of such other person as a tenant or Subtenant, or as a release of Subtenant from the further keeping, observance or performance by Subtenant of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions herein contained. The receipt and retention by Sublandlord of monthly Base Rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant, agreement, term, provision or condition herein contained shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach.

27.              Counterparts. This Sublease (and amendments to this Sublease) may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of such counterparts shall constitute one document. To facilitate execution of this Sublease, the parties may execute and exchange, by electronic mail PDF, counterparts of the signature pages. Signature pages may be detached from the counterparts and attached to a single copy of this Sublease to physically form one document. The parties hereto consent and agree that this Sublease may be signed and/or transmitted by facsimile, e-mail of a .pdf document or using electronic signature technology (e.g., via DocuSign or similar electronic signature technology), and that such signed electronic record shall be valid and as effective to bind the party so signing as a paper copy bearing such party’s handwritten signature. The parties further consent and agree that (a) to the extent a party signs this Sublease using electronic signature technology, by clicking “SIGN”, such party is signing this Sublease electronically, and (b) the electronic signatures appearing on this Sublease shall be treated, for purposes of validity, enforceability and admissibility, the same as handwritten signatures.
