Dear Mr. Sherwood:

 

This letter will confirm our understanding and agreement that, in order to
correct a scrivener’s error, the phrase “From the sixth (6th) anniversary” in
the fourth paragraph of the definition of Annual Base Rent in Article 1.1 of the
Lease is deleted and replaced with the phrase “From the fifth (5th)
anniversary”.

 

Please indicate your agreement with the foregoing by signing and returning a
counterpart copy of this letter, which shall constitute an amendment to the
Lease. It is agreed that electronic signatures shall constitute originals for
all purposes.

 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

 

Sincerely,

 

Farley White Wiggins, LLC
