The Minimum Rent shall commence to accrue on the Commencement Date. The first such monthly installments of Minimum Rent shall be due and payable to Landlord no later than the Commencement Date and each subsequent monthly installment shall be due and payable to Landlord on the first day of each and every month following the Commencement Date during the Term hereof. If the Commencement Date is a date other than the first day of the month, Minimum Rent and other charges for the period commencing with and including the Commencement Date through the first day of the following month shall be prorated at the rate of one-thirtieth (1/30) of the monthly Minimum Rent per day.
In addition, Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent monthly payments of applicable taxes, assessments and insurance on the property. This amount will be of 1/12 of the bill for real estate and assessment taxes and 1/12 of the bill on insurance. Estimated figures for taxes and insurance

2.1.1 There will be an increase in the Minimum Rent starting on the first anniversary of the lease if the Consumer Price Index increases. Minimum Rent specified in this lease shall be subject to increase in accordance with changes in the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) as promulgated by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor, using the year of the Commencement Date as a base of 100.

ARTICLE 8
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
Tenant may not assign this lease in whole or in part, nor sublet all or any portion of the Premises, without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance.

No assignment, under letting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed acceptance of the assignee, subtenant or occupant as Tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of the covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. This prohibition against any assignment or subleasing by operation of law, legal process, receivership, bankruptcy or otherwise, whether
voluntary or involuntary and a prohibition against any encumbrance of all and any part of Tenant’s leasehold interest.

| $29.40 |
| $30.60 |
The market rents ranged from $24.00 to $30.60 per square foot for standard medical office space. Based on this sample we estimated the standard medical office building market rent to fall between $27.00 and $30.60, per square foot. Given the age, construction, condition of the subject, and location of the property we consider it to identify most closely in the upper end of this range. We therefore, conclude that the most probable market rent is indicated to be $30.00 per foot for standard medical office rent.
We estimated market rent for the specialty treatment space including the CT/Simulator to be $51.73, and for radiation treatment vaults to be $82.85, thus indicating a weighted average market rent of $44.73 per square foot. A summary of these market rental rates as applied in the subject’s case is detailed in the following chart.

|
The current contract rent is $58.96 per square foot per year. As previously noted market rent represents the “most probable” rent which anticipates a variance around a measure of central tendency.
Rental 1 at $54.41 is more specialized medical office space with build-out cost and rent significantly higher than standard medical office space. Applying this rate in place of the standard medical office area results in an indicated weighted average market rent of $60.32. A summary of this market rental rate as applied to the subject is detailed below.

|
Total Rentable Area = |

|
Given a 10% variation around the mean in the specialized medical office rent, we anticipate market rent to fall between $54.28 and $66.35 per square foot, with the most probable rent being $60.00.
Based on these measures, market rent would be expected to fall between $45.00 and $60.00 per square foot.
Return on Asset Analysis of Market Rent
A second method frequently utilized in the leasing of special purpose properties, and particularly applied to high cost, specialized facilities such as Radiation Oncology Centers, is the establishment of the return on asset basis for determination of market rent. This situation frequently occurs with a national or regional operator (such as Radiation Therapy Services, US Oncology, etc.) who either acquire or design and develop a facility which is then “sold” and leased back from a real estate investment trust or real estate partnership. The range of asset returns reportedly relied on in these leases is from about 8% to 13%, depending on the negotiating capacity of the lessee operator, the age of the facility, recapture of special purpose features and the strength of the local market. Because these facilities often reflect a different mix of real estate components a cost based approach will be applied in estimating an asset based market rent for the subject.
A cost based estimate of market rent for the real property will be determined based on an appropriate return on and of the assets. In estimating market rent for the real property, land and buildings were separated. Land, being a non-wasting asset, reflected an 8.0% return on, but no recapture of, the asset.
The return on the improvements also relies on a base rate of 8%. The return (recapture) of the asset was based on our estimate of combined expected economic life for the subject improvements. We note that oncology centers combine several types of specialized space each of which has a high level of technological dependence. The economic life of each segment of the structures was separately estimated, along with an allowance for retro-fit every seven years. The weighted average economic life for this building was thus estimated at 26 years. The required return of and on improvements was therefore calculated at 12.01%.

We utilized this methodology as a benchmark in the market rent analysis. The indicated asset based calculation of market rent is $379,000 ($55.87 per square foot).
This asset-based calculation of market rent, therefore, is considered within the expected ranges as derived from the various benchmarks for comparison. While the market rent estimate calculation proves a very “precise” market rent, the level of precision is not intended to imply a high degree of accuracy. In other words, while this is considered a reasonable estimate of market, rent is not considered sufficiently market specific to prove the only measure of market rent. The costs are based on costs that are subject to depreciation, therefore they are less reliable.
Final Opinion of Market Rent
Most weight is given to the comparable rental study. Based on the analyses and conclusions as stated and subject to the definitions, assumptions, and limiting conditions relied on, it is our opinion that the Market Rent of the leasehold interest in the subject property, analyzed as of January 27, 2006 is: to be consistent with contract rent at $58.96 per square foot or $34,211.54 per month.
$410,538.48 per Year
