6.             Leasehold Improvements. Provided that there shall not then be existing a default by Tenant under the provisions of the Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Landlord agrees to furnish and install improvements within the Premises in accordance with the Work Letter attached to this Amendment as Schedule 1 and made a part hereof.


 


7.             Renewal Option. Provided that Tenant is not in default of its Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, and gives written notice (the "Renewal Notice") to Landlord not less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Extension Term, Tenant shall have the right to extend the Extension Term of the Lease (the "Renewal Option") for one (1) additional period of three (3) years (the "Renewal Term"). Such Renewal Term shall be on the same terms and conditions of this Lease except that Base Rental for such Renewal Term, shall be reestablished at the then current market rate (including and taking into account new Base Year and Expense Stop) for buildings of similar class and location as determined by Landlord in good faith within thirty (30) days of Tenant's notice. If the Tenant does not agree with Landlord's determination by written notice to Landlord within fifteen (15) days of Landlord's notice of Landlord's determination of the current market rate, the parties will agree to negotiate in good faith to determine the current rental market rate; provided, however, if Landlord and Tenant have not, within thirty (30) days after Tenant' notice of disagreement, (i) agreed upon the current market rate, despite each party's good faith efforts; and (ii) entered into a mutually acceptable lease amendment therefor, then the Renewal Term shall be null and void and of no further force and effect, and the Lease shall expire at the expiration of the Extension Term. Any termination of the Lease shall also terminate the Renewal Option. Tenant shall have no other rights to extend the Extension Term except as stated herein. This Renewal Option is personal to Tenant and shall not apply to any of Tenant's Assignee(s) or Sublessee(s), except for a Permitted Transferee.

8.             Signage. Provided that Tenant is not in default of its Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, Tenant shall continue to utilize its existing location on the exterior monument sign at no cost to Tenant throughout the lease term in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lease. Landlord will use reasonable efforts to reasonably trim the existing landscaping to allow for the visibility of such sign.


 


9.             Expansion Right. From the execution date of this Amendment, and continuing until April 30, 2014, provided Tenant is not in default of any of the terms, conditions or covenants of the Lease, Landlord agrees that any additional premises in the Building that may be added to this Lease by mutual agreement between Landlord and Tenant shall be upon the same terms and conditions in the Lease. In such event, in the lease amendment mutually agreed to by Landlord and Tenant, Base Rental shall be increased (at the same rate per annum provided in the Lease) based on the additional Net Rentable Area being added to the original Premises, Landlord shall allow for a Tenant Allowance equal to $5.00 per Net Rentable Area of the additional space, the ratio of the Area of the Premises to the Area of the Building shall be modified based on the additional space being added to the original Premises, and any other terms shall be modified to the extent necessary because of such additional space being added to the original Premises. All other terms and conditions of this Lease shall apply to the additional space. Base Rental for any additional space shall commence upon the earlier to occur of (i) the date possession is delivered to Tenant, or (ii) within thirty (30) days following mutual execution of the lease amendment, or as otherwise set forth in the lease amendment. This expansion right does not constitute a light of first offer or right of first refusal to Tenant for any additional premises in the Building. This expansion right only defines the terms of any future expansion of Tenant by mutual agreement between Landlord and Tenant during the period from the execution date of this Amendment and April 30, 2014. All rights of Tenant herein shall be subject to any existing tenant's preferential rights and the execution of a mutually acceptable lease amendment incorporating the terms specified herein. These rights are personal to Tenant and shall not apply to any of Tenant's Assignee(s) or Sublessee(s). All rights of Tenant with respect to this expansion right shall expire and terminate as of April 30, 2014.


 


10.           No Existing Defaults by Landlord. Tenant does hereby represent and warrant to Landlord the following:


 


a.             Tenant hereby represents that it has accepted the Premises in its "AS IS" condition, subject to all of those items of record which may affect the real property upon which the Premises is situated, and subject to Landlord's obligation to construct the Leasehold Improvements pursuant to the Work Letter attached hereto as Schedule 1.


 


b.             No defaults exist under the terms of the Lease or any amendments thereto by Landlord and no such default will arise by the mere passage of time. Tenant has no claim, counterclaim, defense or offset against the payment of Rent, any other sums that may be due to Landlord under the terms of the Lease, or against Landlord under the Lease, or otherwise.


 


c.             Except for the terms, covenants and conditions set out in the Lease and any amendments thereto, there are no written or oral agreements between Landlord and Tenant, or between any other party and Tenant, concerning the Premises, including without limitation any outstanding rent concessions.

d.             Tenant hereby agrees that all representations, warranties and covenants made by Landlord to Tenant under the terms of the Lease have been fully complied with by Landlord, or to the extent not complied with, are hereby waived, except for Landlord's obligation to construct the Leasehold Improvements pursuant to the Work Letter attached hereto as Schedule 1.


 


11.           No Existing Defaults by Tenant. As of the date of this Amendment, Landlord is not aware of any default by Tenant under the Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period.


 


12.           Permitted Transferee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, the following constitutes Permitted Transfers, which do not require consent of Landlord (i) a transfer of the Lease to an entity which is the parent of Tenant, subsidiary of Tenant, affiliate of Tenant, or shall directly or indirectly control, be controlled by, or be under common control with, Tenant; (ii) any subsequent sale of ownership interest or issuance of new ownership interests, directly or indirectly, in Tenant; and (iii) a transaction in which any entity succeeds to all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant whether by merger, consolidation, sale or otherwise provided such successor entity assumes in full the obligations of Tenant under this Lease; provided, however, that (A) Tenant shall remain liable for the performance of all covenants, duties and obligations under the Lease, irrespective of any such assignment, and (B) the use of the Premises by the assignee shall conform with the uses permitted by this Lease. Tenant shall notify Landlord, in writing, of any such assignment or sublease within thirty (30) days after its occurrence and shall provide Landlord with all such reasonable information as Landlord may request reasonably regarding the identity and status of such assignee.


 


13.           Multiple Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.


 


14.           Entire Understanding. The Lease and this Amendment embodies the entire understanding between Landlord and Tenant with respect to its subject matter and can be changed only by an instrument in writing signed by Landlord and Tenant.


 


15.           Acknowledgment of Lease. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Lease remains in full force and effect in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein, unmodified except as modified by this Amendment, and is otherwise hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects by Landlord and Tenant. In the event of a conflict or discrepancy between the Lease, and this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall control.


 


16.           Brokers. Except for representation of Landlord by Endura Advisory Group, Ltd. ("Landlord's Broker") and the representation of Tenant by Partners National Real Estate Group, Inc. ("Tenant's Broker"), Landlord and Tenant each represent and warrant to the other that neither party has dealt with any broker or brokers in connection with this Amendment. Landlord shall be solely responsible for payment of any brokerage fees or commissions, if any, to Landlord's Broker and Tenant's Broker pursuant to separate agreements with Landlord's Broker and Tenant's Broker. Landlord and Tenant each agree to indemnify and hold the other party and its beneficiaries harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from a breach of the foregoing representation and warranty.
