the State of New Jersey-New Jersey Cash Management Fund (the”Fund”). The Fund is
authorized to accept deposits from all Local Units of government. The Fund is a “common trust”
fund pursuant to the statute that created such funds within the jurisdiction of the Division of
Investment. According to the enabling legislation, monies of Local Units deposited in the Fund
must be invested in obligations and bonds that meet the investment requirements of the statute.
These obligations include, among other things, evidences of indebtedness of U.S. corporations.
These obligations are less secure than those permitted to Local Units under the Act. Thus, the
Fund is riskier than direct investments in federal securities or GUDPA-protected deposits by
Local Units.

the Landlord, the following described premises: Commercial Condominium unit B located in the building located
at 251-255 First Street a/k/a 98 Park Avenue, Hoboken, Hudson County, New Jersey consisting of
approximately 1400 square feet and as specifically defined in Schedule A attached hereto (the "Premises".)
2. Term. This Lease is for a term of Three (3) Months commencing on January 1, 2013 and ending April 1, 2013
or if the commencement date is after January 1, 2013 on the last date of the third month from the
commencement date.
3. Use. The Premises are to b e u s e d and occupied only a n d for no other p u r p o s e than MUNICIPAL

s t and 62
n d days of the Lease (and every 31 days

(b) The fixed basic rent during the term of this Lease shall be payable by Tenant in equal monthly
installments on or before the 31st
and 62nd
days of the Lease, in advance, as follows:

Month 1 $0.00
Month 2 $3,000.00
Month 3 $3,000.00

additional rent. Any additional rent required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord shall be due and payable no later than

due date, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such overdue amount,

any cause or reason whatsoever arising out of or by reason of the occupancy of the Premises by the Tenant or
business of the Tenant.
13. Mortgage Priority. This Lease will not be a lien against the Premises with respect to any mortgages that
are currently or may hereafter be placed upon the Premises. Such mortgages will have preference and be
superior and prior in lien to this Lease, irrespective of the date of recording of such mortgages. The Tenant will
execute any instruments, without cost, which may be deemed necessary to further effect the subordination of
this Lease to any such mortgages. A refusal by the Tenant to execute such instruments is a default under this
Lease.
14, Condemnation; Eminent Domain. If any portion of the premises of which the Premises are a part. is taken
under eminent domain or condemnation proceedings, or if suit or other action shall be instituted for the taking

option to purchase and or sells and conveys the Premises or any portion thereof, to the governmental or other
public authority, agency, body or public utility seeking to take the Premises or any portion thereof, then this
Lease, at the option of the Landlord, will terminate, and the term hereof will end as of such date as the
Landlord fixes by notice in writing. The Tenant will have no claim or right to claim or be entitled to any portion
of any amount which may be awarded as damages or paid as the result of such condemnation proceedings or

Tenant may, however, file a claim for any taking of fixtures and improvements owned by the Tenant, and for
moving expenses. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all rights of the Tenant to damages, if any, are
hereby assigned to the Landlord. The Tenant will execute and deliver any instruments, at the expense of the
Landlord, as may be deemed necessary to expedite any condemnation proceedings or to effectuate a proper
transfer of title to such governmental or other public authority, agency, body or public utility seeking to take or
acquire the Premises or any portion thereof. The Tenant will vacate the Premises, remove all of the Tenant's
personal property therefrom and deliver up peaceable possession thereof to the Landlord or to such other party
designated by the Landlord. The Tenant will repay the Landlord for such costs, expenses, damages and losses
as the Landlord may incur by reason of the Tenant's breach hereof.

Landlord. If the Premises are partially damaged by fire, the elements or other casualty, the Landlord will
repair the same as speedily as practicable, but the Tenant's obligation to pay the rent hereunder will not cease
as long as the premises remain tenantable.. If, in the opinion of the Landlord, the Premises are so substantially
damaged as to render them untenantable and to prevent the Tenant from operating its business as it did prior
to the damage, then the rent will cease until such time as the Premises are made tenantable by the Landlord.
If, however, in the opinion of the Landlord, the Premises are so substantially damaged that the Landlord
decides not to rebuild, then the rent will be paid up to the time of such destruction and this Lease will terminate
as of the date of such destruction. The rent, and any additional rent, will be apportioned as of the termination
date, and any rent paid for any period beyond that date will be repaid to the Tenant. However, the preceding
provisions of this Paragraph 15 will not become effective or be applicable if the fire or other casualty and
damage are the result of the carelessness, negligence or improper conduct of the Tenant or the Tenant's agents,
employees, guests, licensees, invitees, subtenants, assignees or successors. In such case, the Tenant's liability
for the payment of the rent and the performance of all the covenants, conditions and terms hereof on the
Tenant's part to be performed will continue and the Tenant will be liable to the Landlord for the damage and
loss suffered by the Landlord. If the Tenant is insured against any of the risks herein covered, then the
proceeds of such insurance will be paid over to the Landlord to the extent of the Landlord's costs and expenses
to make the repairs hereunder, and such insurance carriers will have no recourse against the Landlord for
reimbursement.
16. Reimbursement of Landlord. If the Tenant fails or refuses to comply with any of the terms and conditions
of this Lease, the Landlord may carry out and perform such conditions at the cost and expense of the Tenant,
which amounts will be payable on demand to the Landlord. This remedy will be in addition to such other
remedies as the Landlord may have by reason of the breach by the Tenant of any of the terms and conditions of
this Lease.
17. Increase of Insurance Rates. If for any reason it is impossible to obtain fire and other hazard insurance on
the buildings and improvements on the Premises in an amount and in the form and from insurance companies
acceptable to the Landlord, the Landlord may, at any time, terminate this Lease, upon giving to the Tenant
fifteen (15) days' notice in writing of the Landlord's intention to do so, Upon the giving of such notice, this Lease
will terminate as of the date specified in such notice. If by reason of the use to which the Premises are put by
the Tenant or character of or the manner in which the Tenant's business is carried on, the insurance rates for
fire and other hazards increase, the Tenant will, upon demand, pay to the Landlord, as additional rent, the
amounts by which the premiums for such insurance are increased.

by force or otherwise, without being liable for prosecution therefor, or for damages, re-enter, possess and enjoy
the Premises. The Landlord may then re-let the Premises and receive the rents therefor and apply the same,
first to the payment of such expenses, reasonable attorney fees and costs, as the Landlord may have incurred in
re-entering and repossessing the Premises and in making such repairs and alterations as may be necessary; and
second to the payment of the rents due hereunder. The Tenant will remain liable for such rents as may be in
arrears and also the rents as may accrue subsequent to the reentry by the Landlord, to the extent of the
difference between the rents reserved hereunder and the rents, if any, received by the Landlord during the
remainder of the unexpired term hereof, after deducting the aforementioned expenses, fees and costs; the same
to be paid as such deficiencies arise and are ascertained each month,
22. Termination on Default. If an Event of Default occurs, the Landlord may, at any time thereafter,
terminate this Lease and the term hereof, upon giving to the Tenant notice in writing, as described herein,
and where not described upon ten (10) days written notice, of the Landlord's intention so to do. Upon the
giving of such notice, this Lease and the term hereof will end on the date fixed in such notice as if such date
was the date originally fixed in this Lease for the expiration hereof; and the Landlord will have the right to
remove all persons, goods, fixtures and chattels from the Premises, by force or otherwise, without liability for
damage.

or improper conduct on the part of any other tenant or of the Landlord or the Tenant's or any other tenant's
agents, employees, guests, licensees, invitees, subtenants, assignees or successors; or attributable to any
interference with, interruption of, or failure beyond the control of the Landlord, of any services to be
furnished or supplied by the Landlord. This limitation on the Landlord's liability will not apply to damage or
injury resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Landlord or of the Landlord's agents,
employees, guests, licensees, invitees, assignees or successors.
24. a. Non"Waiver. The various rights, remedies, options and elections of the Parties under this Lease are

recourse to any remedy conferred in this Lease, or the acceptance or offerance by the Party of any
installment of rent after any breach by the other Party, in any one or more instances, will not be
construed or deemed to be a waiver or a relinquishment for the future by the non-breaching Party of
any such conditions and covenants, options, elections or remedies, but the same will continue in full force
and effect.
25. Non-Performance by Landlord. This Lease and the obligation of the Tenant to pay the rent hereunder and
to comply with the covenants and conditions hereof, will not be affected, curtailed, impaired or excused because
of the Landlord's inability to supply any service or material called for in this Lease, by reason of any rule, order,
regulation or preemption by any governmental entity, authority, department, agency or subdivision or for any
delay which may arise by reason of negotiations for the adjustment of any fire or other casualty loss or because
of strikes or other labor trouble or for any cause beyond the control of the Landlord.
26. Validity of Lease. The terms, conditions, covenants and provisions of this Lease will be deemed to be
severable. If any clause or provision contained in this Lease is adjudged to be invalid or unenforceable by a

clause or provision in this Lease, but such other clauses or provisions will remain in full force and effect.

such notices by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or by hand delivery, fax or overnight
delivery service, to the address of the parties as shown at the beginning of this Lease, or to such other address
as may be designated in writing, which notice of change of address is given in the same manner.
