NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. Extension of Lease Term; Premises “AS-IS”. Lessor and Lessee agree that Paragraph 1.3 of the Lease shall be amended by extending the Expiration Date of the Lease from March 31, 2010, to September 30, 2014 (the “Extended Term”).

*Confidential Treatment Requested


All Base Rental Rates are “triple net”, and Lessee shall be responsible for its pro rata share of all Common Area Operating Expenses for the project, including without limitation common area expenses, real property taxes and required insurance.

3. Required Notice of Intent Not to Renew Lease. Not later than August 31, 2013, Lessee shall notify Landlord in writing whether Lessee intends not to renew this Lease for an additional five (5) year term. In the event Lessee fails to notify Lessor by said date that Lessee does not intend to renew this Lease, then, at the election of Lessor, this Lease shall be automatically extended for an additional five (5)-year period. Base Rent for the 5-year extended term shall be at one hundred percent (100%) of the prevailing market rental rate in the area determined in the manner described below, but in no event less than the Base Rent in effect at the expiration of the initial Lease term. Base Rent for each successive year shall be at prevailing market rate increases over the first year Base Rent.

The parties shall have thirty (30) days in which to agree on monthly Base Rent for the first year of the applicable extended term and on market rate increases, if any, in one or more successive years thereafter. If the parties are unable to agree on the minimum monthly Base Rent within that period, then within ten (10) days after the expiration of that period, either (i) Lessor and Lessee shall appoint a mutually acceptable appraiser or broker to establish the new market rental rate and terms (“MRRT”) in the area within the next thirty (30) days, including market rate increases during one or more successive years of the extended term (all costs associated with said appraisal shall be split equally between Lessor and Lessee), or (ii) each of Lessor and Lessee shall select and pay the appraiser or broker of their choosing to establish a MRRT within the next 30 days. If for any reason either one of the appraisals is not completed within the next 30 days as stipulated, then the appraisal that is completed at that time shall automatically become the new MRRT. If both appraisals are completed and the two appraisers/brokers cannot agree on a reasonable average MRRT then they shall immediately select a mutually acceptable appraiser, broker to establish which of the two appraisals is closest to the MRRT. Whichever appraisal is determined by the third broker/appraiser to be closest to the MRRT shall be the new MRRT. The new Base Rent shall be the MRRT as determined by said broker/appraiser. In determining the MRRT, the appraisers shall take into account that Lessor is not making any tenant improvements, or giving Lessee any free rent. In no event shall the new Base Rent be less than the Base Rent payable for the month immediately preceding the date for rent adjustment.

4. No Obligation to Remove Existing Improvements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 7.4 of the Lease, in no event shall Lessee have any restoration obligations with respect to the existing improvements in the Premises shown on Exhibit “A” attached hereto.

5. Amendment to Section 52.3 of the Lease Addendum. Section 52.3 of the Lease Addendum is hereby amended by adding the following sentence to the end thereof:

“Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 52.3 of the Lease Addendum, in the event any alteration is required pursuant to the ADA that is a capital item for federal income tax purposes, Lessor and Lessee shall share said expense pursuant to the formula set forth in Section 7.1(d) of the Lease.
