(hereafter "Tenant").


WITNESSETH:

premises known as 91 Heartland Boulevard, Edgewood, New York, as more particularly described in Exhibit "A" thereto, for the

WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant
entered into a written Lease Amendment to the Agreement of Lease, which Lease Amendment was dated November 11, 2020, whereby, among other
things, the term of the Agreement of Lease was extended until April 30, 2023, for the rent and on all terms and conditions as set forth
in the Lease Amendment (the Agreement of Lease, as amended by the Lease Amendment, the "Lease"); and


WHEREAS, the Lease is currently
in full force and effect and Tenant is occupying the premises; and


WHEREAS, the term of the
Lease is to end on April 30, 2023; and


WHEREAS, Tenant desires
to extend the term of the Lease for one (1) additional period of three (3) years from May 1, 2023, so that the term of the Lease shall
end on April 30, 2026, for the rent, and on all of the terms and conditions of the Lease, as modified herein; and


WHEREAS, Landlord is agreeable
to extending the term of the Lease for one (1) additional period of three (3) years from May 1, 2023, so that the term of the Lease shall
end on April 30, 2026, for the rent, and on all of the terms and conditions of the lease, as modified herein; and


WHEREAS, the Lease may
be modified by a writing executed by the Landlord and Tenant.

anything contained in the Lease, the Lease is hereby amended to extend the term thereof for one additional period of three (3) years
from the present expiration date thereof, so that the term of the Lease shall end on April 30, 2026, instead of April 30, 2023, unless
such term shall sooner cease and expire as in the Lease provided. Other than if, in accordance with the terms of the Lease, the term
of the Lease shall expire or terminate earlier, Landlord and Tenant agree for all purposes that any and all references to the termination
or expiration date of the Lease shall mean April 30, 2026.


3. Paragraph 41 (A) of
the rider to the Lease is amended by adding the following subparagraphs:

nominal surface improvements to the existing parking lot, Landlord has not offered to do and has no obligation to do any work or make
any repairs, alterations, modifications, improvements, changes or additions in connection with this Second Lease Amendment.


5.       Landlord
and Tenant each warrants and represents to the other party that there was no broker instrumental in bringing about or consummating this
Second Lease Amendment and that no conversations or negotiations were had with any brokers in connection with this Second Lease Amendment.
Each of Landlord and Tenant agree to indemnify, defend and hold the other harmless from and against any and all costs, commissions, expenses,
claims, suits, actions, judgments, including reasonable attorneys' fees, of or by any broker for a commission or fee in connection with
this Second Lease Amendment. The terms of this Section 5 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the lease, as hereby
amended.


6.       Each
to the best of their knowledge, Landlord and Tenant hereby affirm that, as of the date hereof, no breach, default, or other act, error,
or omission which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, would constitute a breach or default by either party, has occurred
and is continuing.


7.       The
lease, as amended herein, may only be modified by a writing executed by the parties hereto.


8.       The
covenants, conditions and agreements of the Lease, as amended herein, shall bind and inure to the benefit of Landlord and Tenant and
their respective heirs, distributees, executors, administrators, successors, and except as otherwise provided in the Lease, their assigns.


9.       The
Lease, as modified by this Second Lease Amendment, contains the entire understanding and agreement between Landlord and Tenant; all prior
agreements, both oral and written, are merged herein and therein and are superseded hereby and thereby.


10.       This
Second Lease Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and each of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. Digital, electronic or scanned copies of original handwritten signatures shall be considered valid.


11.       Except
as specifically set forth in this Second Lease Amendment, the Lease is, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with
its terms, and each and every agreement, term, covenant and condition thereof is hereby ratified, confirmed and continued. From and after
the date hereof, any and all references to the "lease" shall mean the Lease as modified by this Second Lease Amendment.


12.       This
Second Lease Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to any choice or conflict of law provision thereof.
