rent abatement.

Deposit of $9,746, which shall be added to the $3,500.00 Security Deposit currently held by Lessor for a total Security Deposit of $13,246, which amount shall continue to be governed by the provisions in the Lease with respect to Security Deposit.

was instrumental in negotiating or consummating this Lease on behalf of Lessee, and that Lessee knows of no broker, agent or finder who is or might be entitled to a commission or compensation in connection with the Lease or this Amendment based on
any statements or representations by Lessee. Lessee shall hold Lessor harmless from all damages and indemnify Lessor for all damages paid or incurred by Lessor resulting from any claims that may be asserted by any broker, agent or finder based on
any statements or representations by Lessee.
