* Prorated Initial Month 0 based on full month rate.
** The initial monthly installment of Base Rent amount was calculated by multiplying the initial monthly Base Rent rate per rentable square foot amount by the number of rentable square feet of space in the Premises, and the annual Base Rent amount was calculated by multiplying the initial monthly installment of Base Rent amount by twelve (12).  In all subsequent Base Rent payment periods during the Lease Term commencing on the first (1st) day of the full calendar month 








that is Lease month 13, the calculation of each monthly installment of Base Rent amount reflects an annual increase of three and one-half percent (3-1/2%) and each annual Base Rent amount was calculated by multiplying the corresponding monthly installment of Base Rent amount by twelve (12).
*** The amount identified in the column entitled "Monthly Rental Rate per Rentable Square Foot" are rounded amounts provided for informational purposes only.
**** Subject to abatement as provided in Article 3 below.  The Base Rent for this eight (8) month period is calculated based on 58,421 rentable square feet in the Premises notwithstanding that Tenant is leasing the entire Premises (consisting of 77,929 rentable square feet); provided, however, that Tenant shall pay Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses, Tax Expenses and Utilities Costs based on 77,929 rentable square feet in the Premises for the entire Lease Term.  [per First Amendment]  


3.Recalculation of Allowance, Additional Allowance and Amortization Rent. Section 9 of the First Amendment is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“9.    Recalculation of Allowance, Additional Allowance and Amortization Rent. Effective as of the date hereof, (i) the reference to the Allowance in Section 3 of Exhibit B is deemed revised to be equal to $16,163,729.00 (based on 77,929 rentable square feet in the Premises), and (ii) the reference to the Additional Allowance in Section 3 of Exhibit B is deemed revised to be equal to $0.00, and (iii) the Amortization Rent in the example in Section 3 of Exhibit B is deemed equal to $0.00.”
