Rent so received, or in the event that Sublandlord occupies said Premises, the reasonable value of the rental of said Subleased Premises (not to exceed the Rent or Additional Rent reserved herein), shall be applied first to the payment of such expenses as Sublandlord may have incurred in connection with the recovery of possession, redecorating, or altering, or otherwise changing or preparing for reletting, and the reletting, including brokerage and reasonable attorney’s fees, and then to the payment of damages in amounts equal to the Rent or Additional Rent hereunder and to the cost and expenses of performance of the other covenants of Subtenant as herein provided.

Subtenant agrees, in any such case, whether or not Sublandlord has relet, to pay to Sublandlord damages equal to the Rent and Additional Rent and other sums herein agreed to be paid by Subtenant, less the net proceeds of the reletting, if any, as ascertained from time to time, and the same shall be payable by Subtenant on the several days above specified for the payment of Rent or Additional Rent. In reletting the Subleased Premises as aforesaid, Sublandlord shall have the right to grant reasonable rent concessions and such other concessions as it may reasonably deem necessary. Sublandlord shall have no affirmative duty to affect any reletting. No such reletting shall constitute a surrender and acceptance or be deemed evidence thereof.

Alternatively, in any case where Sublandlord has recovered possession of the Subleased Premises by reason of Subtenant’s default, Sublandlord may, at Sublandlord’s option, and at any time thereafter, and without notice or other action by Sublandlord, and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies it may have hereunder or at law or equity, become entitled to recover from Subtenant, as damages for such breach, in addition to such other sums herein agreed to be paid by Subtenant, to the date of re-entry, expiration and/or dispossess an amount equal to the difference between the Rent and Additional Rent reserved in this Sublease from the date of such default to the date of expiration of the original term demised and the then fair and reasonable rental value of the Subleased Premises for the same period; provided said fair and reasonable rental is less than the Rent and Additional Rent reserved herein. Said damages shall become due and payable to Sublandlord immediately upon such breach of this Sublease and without regard to whether this Sublease be terminated or not, and if this Sublease be terminated, without regard to the manner in which it is terminated.

Subtenant hereby waives all right of redemption to which Subtenant or any person claiming under Subtenant might be entitled by any law nor or hereafter in force.

Sublandlord’s remedies hereunder are in addition to any remedy allowed by law.

Subtenant agrees to pay, as Additional Rent, all attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred by the Sublandlord in enforcing any of the obligations under this Sublease, this covenant to survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Sublease.

29.  SUBLEASE CONSENT. This Sublease shall become effective only if the written consent hereto of the Prime Landlord is obtained, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D.

30.  PARKING.Subtenant shall be provided with Subtenant’s Proportionate Share of total spaces allocated to Sublandlord under the Prime Lease, ten (10) of which shall be covered/reserved spaces, and the remaining portion shall be unreserved/uncovered parking spaces.

(a) Subtenant shall deposit with Sublandlord on the signing of this Sublease the sum of One Hundred Thirty Three Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 ($133,500.00) Dollars as security for the performance of Subtenant’s obligations under this Sublease, including without limitation, the surrender of possession of the Subleased Premises to Sublandlord as herein provided. The security shall be in the form of an irrevocable letter of credit (the “Security Deposit L/C”). The Security Deposit L/C shall be delivered to Sublandlord at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense. The Security Deposit L/C shall be issued by and drawn on a bank or financial institution reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord maintaining an office within the State of New Jersey and shall name Sublandlord as beneficiary. If the maturity date of the Security Deposit L/C is prior to the end of the term of this Sublease, Subtenant shall renew the Security Deposit L/C as often as necessary with the same bank or financial institution (or a similar bank or financial institution reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord) and upon the same terms and conditions, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the purported expiration date of the Security Deposit L/C. In the event Subtenant fails to timely renew the Security Deposit L/C as aforesaid, Sublandlord shall be entitled to draw against the entire amount of the Security Deposit L/C. The Security Deposit L/C shall be assignable by Sublandlord and upon such assignment to any party assuming in writing the sublessor interest in this Sublease, Sublandlord shall be relieved from all liability to Subtenant therefor.

(b) Upon the occurrence of any default by Subtenant in the payment of Rent or upon the occurrence of the events of Section 25 of this Sublease or in the event Sublandlord terminates this Sublease in accordance with the terms hereof following a default by Subtenant after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, Sublandlord shall have the right to draw the entire amount of the Security Deposit L/C. Sublandlord agrees to copy Subtenant on any notice to the issuing bank requesting a draw against the Security Deposit L/C. In the event that Subtenant defaults after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period in making any payment required to be made by Subtenant under the terms of this Sublease other than the payment of Rent, then Sublandlord shall be entitled to draw upon so much of the Security Deposit L/C as equals the defaulted payment(s), plus any interest or other charges due thereon in accordance with this Sublease. If Sublandlord elects to make a partial draw upon the Security Deposit L/C, Subtenant shall promptly restore the Security Deposit L/C to its original amount within ten (10) days after written demand therefor. Sublandlord’s election to make a partial draw upon the Security Deposit L/C shall in no event prejudice or waive Sublandlord’s right to terminate this Sublease if permitted under applicable provisions of this Sublease, nor shall such election prejudice or waive any other remedy of Sublandlord reserved under the terms of this Sublease, including the right to draw the entire amount of the Security Deposit L/C, if applicable. The Security Deposit L/C shall be available for payment against the presentation of a sight draft by the Sublandlord (with simultaneous notice to Subtenant) together with a certificate from Sublandlord that Subtenant is in default of its obligations hereunder beyond expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods and that Sublandlord is entitled, by the terms of this Sublease, to draw upon the Security Deposit L/C. The proceeds of the Security Deposit L/C, if drawn by Sublandlord pursuant to the terms hereof, shall be held by Sublandlord and applied to reduce any amount owed by Subtenant to Sublandlord.

(c) In the event that (i) Sublandlord draws the full amount of the Security Deposit L/C as a result of a default by Subtenant, (ii) this Sublease is not terminated by Sublandlord as a result of such default, (iii) such default is fully cured by Subtenant, and (iv) there is no outstanding cured default by Subtenant, then the balance of the sums drawn (after the payment of any sums related to the curing of any defaults) shall be applied to obtain a replacement letter of credit as security for Subtenant’s performance hereunder in the amount initially required herein.

(d) To the extent the Security Deposit L/C is either lost or the issuing bank will not honor the Security Deposit L/C, Subtenant personally guarantees the proceeds of the Security Deposit L/C and will immediately remit to Sublandlord the amount of the Security Deposit L/C in cash to be held in accordance with this Section 31.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 31, provided Subtenant has not been in default under this Sublease beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods at any time during the first twenty four (24) months of the term of this Sublease, and Subtenant has paid Sublandlord Rent on a timely basis as required herein, Sublandlord shall permit the Security Deposit L/C to be amended (at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense) to reduce the face amount of the Security Deposit L/C to a sum equal to Sixty-Six Thousand Seven Hundred Fifty and 00/100 ($66,750.00) Dollars. In no event shall a reduction to the amount of the Security Deposit L/C be deemed to have occurred absent an amendment to the Security Deposit L/C in writing by the issuing bank. It shall be Subtenant’s sole obligation to obtain such written amendment from the issuing bank.

(f) In the event of the insolvency of Subtenant, or in the event of the entry of a judgment in bankruptcy in any court against Subtenant which is not discharged within twenty (20) days after entry, or in the event a petition is filed by or against Subtenant under any chapter of the bankruptcy laws of the State of New Jersey or the United States of America, then in such event, Sublandlord may require the Subtenant to deposit additional security in an amount which in Sublandlord’s sole judgment would be sufficient to adequately assure Subtenant’s performance of all of its obligations under this Sublease including all payments subsequently accruing. Failure of Subtenant to deposit the security required by this Paragraph within ten (10) days after Sublandlord’s written demand shall constitute a material breach of this Sublease by Subtenant.
(g) Within thirty days after expiration or sooner termination of this Sublease, provided Subtenant is not then in default of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Sublease or the Prime Lease, Sublandlord shall return the security deposit, or balance thereof to which Subtenant is entitled after deduction therefrom of any sums in accordance with the provisions of this Sublease.

Sublandlord agrees to pay Broker a commission pursuant to a separate agreement.

34.  SUBLEASE APPLICABLE TO HEIRS, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The terms, conditions and covenants of this Sublease shall inure to and be binding on the heirs, successors, administrators, executors and assigns of the parties hereto, except as otherwise herein provided.

This Sublease shall not be assigned by operation of law. If Sublandlord and Prime Landlord give consent to assignment of this Sublease or of any interest therein, they shall not thereby be barred from subsequently refusing to consent to any further assignment. However, said consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by Sublandlord. Any attempt to sell, assign, or re-sublease without written consent of Sublandlord and Prime Landlord shall be deemed a default and shall entitle Sublandlord to proceed pursuant to this Sublease if Sublandlord so elects.

36.  INTERRUPTION OF SERVICES OF USE. Interruption or curtailment of any service maintained in the Building shall not entitle Subtenant to claim constructive eviction or any other cause of action against Sublandlord, but Subtenant shall join with and have those rights and remedies Sublandlord may have against Prime Landlord as a result of said interruption. Subtenant shall, under no circumstances, have any claim against Sublandlord or Prime Landlord for interruption to Subtenant’s business, however occurring.

37.  SUBLANDLORD NOT LIABLE.  Sublandlord shall not be liable to Subtenant for any loss suffered by Subtenant under any circumstances, including, but not limited to (i) that arising from the negligence of Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, their agents, servants, invitees, contractors or subcontractors, or from defects, errors or omissions in the construction or design of the Subleased Premises and/or the Building including the structural and nonstructural portions thereof; or (ii) for loss of or injury to Subtenant or to Subtenant’s property or that for which Subtenant is legally liable from any cause whatsoever, including but not limited to theft or burglary; or (iii) for that which results from any inspection, repair, alteration or addition or the failure thereof undertaken or failed to be undertaken by Sublandlord or Prime Landlord, but Subtenant shall join with and have those rights and remedies Sublandlord may have against Prime Landlord as a result of said interruption.

Each casualty insurance policy shall include a waiver of the insurer’s rights of subrogation against the party hereto who is not an insured under said policy.

Subtenant agrees to maintain such equipment and hold Sublandlord harmless from and against any damage or injury to such equipment howsoever caused. Subtenant shall install and maintain such equipment in a manner which will not cause interference or damage to Sublandlord’s equipment.

40.  FURNITURE. During the Term of this Sublease, Subtenant shall be permitted to use Sublandlord’s furniture and fixtures existing in the Subleased Premises as of the Commencement Date, as set forth on Exhibit C hereto. Subtenant shall keep and maintain the furniture and fixtures in good order and condition throughout the term of this Sublease, making all necessary repairs and replacements as required, and surrender same to Sublandlord in good order and condition at the expiration or sooner termination of this Sublease, reasonable wear and tear and damage by casualty and the elements excepted.

41.  RENEWAL OPTION. (a) Provided Subtenant is not in default under this Sublease beyond any applicable grace period at the time any renewal notice is given or at the time the renewal period is to commence, Subtenant shall have the right to renew this Sublease for one (1) two (2) year period (the “Renewal Term”).

(b) Subtenant’s right to renew hereunder is expressly subject to Subtenant’s furnishing to Sublandlord written notice of its intention to renew this Sublease at least twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the term, TIME HEREBY BEING MADE OF THE ESSENCE.

(c) All the terms and conditions of this Sublease shall apply to the renewal period, except that the Annual Base Rent to be paid during the renewal period shall be adjusted as follows:

The Annual Base Rent to be paid during the Renewal Term shall not be less than that paid for the Subleased Premises during the last year of the original term of this Sublease (without regard to any temporary abatement of rent then in effect pursuant to the Sublease provisions). However, if the fair rental value per square foot at the commencement of the renewal term shall exceed the rent as established in the preceding sentence, the Subtenant shall pay such fair rental value. In determining the fair rental value, the Sublandlord shall notify the Subtenant of the fair rental value as established by Sublandlord. Should Subtenant dispute Sublandlord’s determination, then the Subtenant shall be free to, at the Subtenant’s sole cost and expense, employ the services of an appraiser familiar with office buildings located within the Saddle River, New Jersey area comparable to the Building, who shall be a member of The Appraisal Institute (“MAI”) and who shall render an appraisal. If the Sublandlord and the Subtenant’s appraiser cannot agree on the fair rental value, or in such case, on an independent appraiser acceptable to both, either party may request the American Arbitration Association of Somerset, New Jersey to appoint such independent appraiser who shall be a member of MAI familiar with office buildings in the area of the Building and in such event the judgment of a majority of the two appraisers and Sublandlord shall be final and binding upon the parties. The parties shall share equally in the cost of any such independent appraiser. Pending resolution of the issue of fair rental value, the Lessee shall pay Sublandlord as of commencement of the renewal term, the Annual Base Rent as established by Sublandlord, subject to retroactive adjustment upon final determination of this issue.

42.  SECTION HEADINGS. The Section headings in this Sublease and position of its provisions are intended for convenience only and shall not be taken into consideration in any construction or interpretation of this Sublease or any of its provisions.

43.  CAPITALIZED TERMS. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Prime Lease unless otherwise defined herein.

44.  COUNTERPARTS. This Sublease may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

45.  SUBORDINATION OF SECURITY INTEREST. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Sublease or the Prime Lease, any security interest that Sublandlord may have in any of the Subtenant’s personal property shall be automatically subordinated to the security interest, if any, granted to Subtenant’s lenders from time to time in the ordinary course of Subtenant’s business. At Subtenant’s request, Sublandlord shall execute a lien waiver, the form of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to Sublandlord and Subtenant’s lender(s), waiving such security interest of Sublandlord in the collateral described in such lien waiver (which collateral shall exclude any tenant improvements, any fixtures installed in the Subleased Premises, and any furniture and fixtures set forth on Exhibit C.

THIS CONSENT TO SUBLEASE ("Consent Agreement") dated as of _________________, 2005, is made with reference to that certain sublease (the "Sublease") dated June ___, 2005 by and between PDI, INC. (Tenant") and AMERICAN TACK & HARDWARE CO., INC. ("Sublessee"), and is entered into between the foregoing parties and VRS SADDLE RIVER LLC ("Landlord"), having an address c/o Kwartler Associates, Inc., 2 North Street, Waldwick, New Jersey 07463 with reference to the following facts:

A. Landlord and Tenant are the parties to that certain master lease (the "Master Lease") dated as of November 20, 2003, respecting certain premises ("Premises") known as Suite(s) 300, located in the building ("Building") located at One Route 17 South, Saddle River, New Jersey.

B. Tenant and Sublessee wish to enter into the Sublease respecting the portion of the Premises described therein (the "Sublease Premises").

C. The Master Lease provides that Tenant may not enter into any sublease without Landlord's prior written approval.

D. Tenant and Sublessee have herewith presented the fully-executed Sublease to Landlord for Landlord's approval, and Landlord is willing to approve the same, upon all of the terms and conditions hereinafter appearing.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Neither the Master Lease, the Sublease nor this Consent Agreement shall be deemed to grant Sublessee any rights whatsoever against Landlord. Sublessee hereby acknowledges and agrees that its sole remedy for any alleged or actual breach of its rights in connection with the Sublease Premises shall be solely against Tenant.

2. This Consent Agreement shall not release Tenant from any existing or future duty, obligation or liability to Landlord, pursuant to the Master Lease, nor shall this Consent Agreement change, modify or amend the Master Lease in any manner. This Agreement shall not be deemed Landlord's consent to any further subleases.

3. (a) In the event of Master Lease Termination (as hereinafter defined) prior to the termination of the Sublease, at Landlord's option, Sublessee agrees to attorn to Landlord and to recognize Landlord as Sublessee's Landlord under the Sublease, and Landlord agrees to recognize Sublessee as Landlord’s tenant, upon the terms and conditions and at the rental rate specified in the Sublease, and for the then remaining term of the Sublease, except that Landlord shall not be bound by any provision of the Sublease which in any way increases Landlord's duties, obligations or liabilities to Sublessee beyond those owed to Tenant under the Master Lease. Sublessee agrees to execute and deliver at any time and from time to time, upon the request of Landlord, any instruments which may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such attornment. Landlord shall not (i) be liable to Sublessee for any act, omission or breach of the Sublease by Tenant, (ii) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Sublessee might have against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any rent or additional rent which Sublessee might have paid in advance to Tenant, except to the extent Tenant has turned over such advance rent to Landlord, (iv) be bound to honor any rights of Sublessee in any security deposit made with Tenant except to the extent Tenant has turned over such security deposit to Landlord. Tenant hereby agrees that in the event of Master Lease Termination, Tenant shall immediately pay or transfer to Landlord any security deposit, rent or other sums then held by Tenant.

(b) "Master Lease Termination" means any event, which by voluntary or involuntary act or by operation of law, might cause or permit the Master Lease to be terminated, expired, canceled, foreclosed against, or otherwise come to an end, including but not limited to (i) a default by Tenant under the Master Lease of any of the terms or provisions thereof, (ii) foreclosure proceedings brought by the holder of any mortgage or trust deed to which the Master Lease is subject; or (iii) the termination of Tenant's leasehold estate by dispossession proceeding or otherwise.

(c) In the event of attornment hereunder, Landlord's liability shall be limited to matters arising during Landlord's ownership of the Building, and in the event that Landlord (or any successor owner) shall convey or dispose of the Building to another party, such party shall thereupon be and become Landlord hereunder and shall be deemed to have fully assumed and be liable for all obligations of this Consent Agreement or the Sublease to be performed by Landlord which first arise after the date of conveyance, including the return of any security deposit, and Tenant shall attorn to such other party, and Landlord (or such successor owner) shall, from and after the date of conveyance, be free of all liabilities and obligations hereunder not then incurred. The liability of Landlord to Sublessee for any default by Landlord under this Consent Agreement or the Sublease after such attornment or arising in connection with Landlord's operation, management, leasing, repair, renovation, alteration, or any other matter relating to the Building or the Sublease Premises, shall be limited to the interest of the Landlord in the Building (and proceeds thereof). Under no circumstances shall any present or future general partner of Landlord (if Landlord is a partnership) have any liability for the performance of Landlord's obligations under this Consent Agreement or the Sublease.

4. In addition to Landlord's rights under Section 3 hereof, in the event Tenant is in default under any of the terms and provisions of the Master Lease, Landlord may elect to receive directly from Sublessee all sums due or payable to Tenant by Sublessee pursuant to the Sublease, and upon receipt of Landlord's notice, Sublessee shall thereafter pay to Landlord any and all sums becoming due or payable under the Sublease and Tenant shall receive from Landlord a corresponding credit for such sums against any payments then due or thereafter becoming due from Tenant. Neither the service of such written notice nor the receipt of such direct payments shall cause Landlord to assume any of Tenant's duties, obligations and/or liabilities under the Sublease, nor shall such event impose upon Landlord the duty or obligation to honor the Sublease, nor subsequently to accept Sublessee's attornment pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof.

5. Sublessee hereby acknowledges that it has read and has knowledge of all of the terms, provisions rules and regulations of the Master Lease and agrees not to do or omit to do anything which would cause Tenant to be in breach of the Master Lease. Any such act or omission by Sublessee shall also constitute a breach of this Consent Agreement and shall entitle Landlord to recover any damage, loss, cost or expense which it thereby suffers, from Sublessee, whether or not Landlord proceeds against Tenant.

6. In the event of any litigation between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, the unsuccessful party agrees to pay the successful party all costs, expenses and reasonable attorney's fees incurred therein by the successful party, which shall be included as a part of the judgment therein rendered.

7. This Consent Agreement shall be binding upon an inure to the benefit of the parties' respective successors and assigns, subject to all agreements and restrictions contained in the Master Lease, the Sublease and herein with respect to subleasing, assignment, or other transfer. The agreements contained herein constitute the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior agreements, written or oral, inconsistent herewith. No amendment, modification or change therein will be effective unless Landlord shall have given its prior written consent thereto. This Consent Agreement may be amended only in writing, signed by all parties hereto.

8. Notices required or desired to be given hereunder shall be effective either upon personal delivery, upon delivery by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service or three (3) days after deposit in the United States mail, by certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the Landlord at the address set forth above, or to Tenant or Sublessee at the address of the Premises or of the Sublease Premises, respectively.

Landlord's acceptance of such fee shall impose no duty on Landlord to approve or execute the Sublease. Tenant shall also promptly pay Landlord any share of bonus rents, or other items required under the Master Lease in connection with subleases.

10. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or elsewhere, if the Master Lease was guaranteed at the time of execution or at any time prior hereto by any guarantor, the Landlord may at any time hereafter declare all of its agreements in this Consent Agreement to be null and void and or no force and effect unless and until Landlord receives a counterpart of this Consent Agreement indicating approval thereof by any and all such guarantor(s), and their spouses (if any).

11. Tenant and Sublessee agree to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any loss, cost, expense, damage or liability, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred as a result of a claim by any person or entity (i) that it is entitled to a commission, finder's fee or like payment in connection with the Sublease or (ii) relating to or arising out of the Sublease or any related agreements or dealings.

12. Tenant agrees to hold any and all payments due under the Sublease as a trust fund to be applied first to the satisfaction of all of Tenant's obligations under the Master Lease and hereunder before using any part thereof for any other purpose.

13. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Sublease or the Master Lease, Sublessee may assign the Sublease or sublet the whole or any part of the Sublease Premises to any person or entity, or to any corporation or entity with which it shall be merged or which shall acquire all or substantially all of the assets or stock of Sublessee, without Tenant’s or Landlord’s consent, but upon notice to Tenant and Landlord, provided, however, that in the event of such merger, consolidation or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets or stock of Sublessee (i) the successor to Sublessee has a net worth computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles sufficient to meet its then remaining obligations under this Sublease from and after the effective date of such transaction, and (ii) proof reasonably satisfactory to Tenant and Landlord of such net worth shall have been delivered to Tenant and Landlord at least 10 business days prior to the effective date of any such transaction.

14. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Sublease or the Master Lease, any security interest that Landlord may have in any of the Sublessee’s personal property shall be automatically subordinated to the security interest, if any, granted to Sublessee’s lenders from time to time in the ordinary course of Sublessee’s business.
