Exhibit 10.2




AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO

LEASE AND PARTIAL TERMINATION AGREEMENT




     This Amendment No. 3 to Lease and Partial Termination Agreement (this “Amendment No. 3 to
Lease”), dated as of May 27, 2008, is made between THE CONNELL COMPANY, a New Jersey corporation
(“Landlord”), and GENTA INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”).



     WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant entered into the Lease dated as of June 28, 2000, which was
amended by Amendment No. 1 to Lease dated as of June 19, 2002, Amendment No. 2 to Lease dated as
of February 25, 2003 and the letter agreement dated April 15, 2008 (as amended, the “Lease”;
capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined having the meaning assigned thereto in the
Lease) pursuant to which Tenant is leasing the Demised Premises in the Building from Landlord;



     WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant desire to terminate the lease of a portion of the Demised
Premises (consisting of 69,201 rentable square feet located on the fifth floor of the Building),
prior to its scheduled expiration date;



     WHEREAS, in connection with the early termination of the lease of such fifth floor space,
Tenant will pay Landlord certain amounts as a termination fee; and



     WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant desire to reflect such termination and amend certain portions of
the Lease to, among other things, reflect the same;



     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:



     SECTION 1. Termination.



     On May 31, 2008 (the “Fifth Floor Termination Date”) the Lease shall automatically terminate
with respect to the Fifth Floor Terminated Space (as defined below) only, with such termination
having the same force and effect as if the Fifth Floor Termination Date were the originally
scheduled expiration date of the Lease with respect to the Fifth Floor Terminated Space; provided,
however it is understood and agreed that the Fifth Floor Terminated Space shall be deemed
surrendered and vacated by Tenant in its “as-is” condition (but in broom clean condition and with
all furniture and personal property removed; it being agreed that Tenant shall only be required to
remove the furniture from the Fifth Floor Terminated Space on the earlier of (i) August 31, 2008 or
(ii) fifteen (15) days following Tenant’s receipt of notice from Landlord to have the furniture
removed) rather than in any other condition required in the Lease on the expiration or earlier
termination thereof. Upon Tenant’s compliance with the requirement set forth above to surrender and
vacate the Fifth Floor Terminated Space in broom clean condition and with all furniture and
personal property removed, the parties agree that Tenant’s obligations under the Lease regarding
the surrender of the Fifth Floor Terminated Space shall be deemed satisfied; it being understood
that the foregoing shall not in any way affect any of Tenant’s indemnification obligations under
the Lease. For purposes of clarification, it is understood and agreed that the termination
described herein on the Fifth Floor Termination Date shall not in any way apply to or affect any
portion of the Demised Premises other than the Fifth Floor Terminated Space, and the Lease shall
continue on and after the Fifth Floor Termination Date in full force and effect with respect to all
portions of the Demised Premises other than the Fifth Floor Terminated Space. For purposes of this
Amendment No. 3 to Lease, the “Fifth Floor Terminated



 









 




Space” shall mean the 69,201 rentable square feet of floor area located on the fifth floor of the
Building which is designated as the “Fifth Floor Terminated Space” on Schedule I attached hereto.




     SECTION 2. Amendments to Lease.



     2.1. On the Fifth Floor Termination Date the Lease shall automatically be amended as set
forth in the remaining portions of Section 2 hereof.



     2.2. Section 1.02 of the Lease is amended by inserting the following immediately prior
to the second to last sentence of such Section 1.02 (such second to last sentence begins with
the words “The Demised Premises includes any alterations”):




Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.02, effective
as of the Fifth Floor Termination Date and for all periods of the Term
thereafter, the Demised Premises shall mean (x) the Initial Demised Premises
plus (y) the Additional Expanets Demised Premises (the total rentable
square footage of the Demised Premises being equal to 24,464 rentable square
feet). For purposes of clarification, effective as of the Fifth Floor
Termination Date, the Demised Premises shall not include the Fifth Floor
Terminated Space.



     2.3. Section 1,03 of the Lease is amended by inserting the following at the end of such
Section 1.03:




Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.03, for the
period from (and including) June 1, 2008 up to (and including) February 28,
2010, “Base Rent” shall equal $56,063.33 per month, which equals the sum of the
following amounts:




	 	(a)	 	Initial Demised Premises: $27.50 per rentable square foot of the Initial
Demised Premises per annum, or $352,192.50 in the aggregate per annum
(or $29,349.38 per month), plus
	 
	 	(b)	 	Additional Expanets Demised Premises: $27.50 per rentable
square foot of the Additional Expanets Demised Premises per annum, or
$320,567.50 in the aggregate per annum (or $26,713.96 per month).






In all cases Base Rent during any renewal term shall be governed by Section 4.01 hereof.



     2.4. Section 1.04 of the Lease is amended by deleting such Section 1.04 in its entirety, and inserting in its place the following:




Section 1.04, Termination Payment for Fifth Floor Terminated
Space. As part of the consideration for Landlord’s agreement to allow for
the termination of the Fifth Floor Terminated Space on the Fifth Floor
Termination Date, Tenant shall pay Landlord the following amounts:




	 	(a)	 	On or before May 31, 2008, Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount equal to $1,351,704.04, as follows:






	 	(i)	 	Tenant shall pay Landlord $240,131.25 on or before May 31, 2008.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that as of the date
of Amendment No. 3 to Lease, the Security Deposit being held by
Landlord equals $1,111,572.79, and Landlord shall, on or before May
31, 2008, use

	 	 	 	and apply the full amount of such Security Deposit to satisfy the balance
of the amount Tenant owes Landlord under this clause (a).






	 	(b)	 	Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount equal to $1,978,593.98

Credit to the A/C of: The Connell Company; Account Number: 2000010817252, or to
such other account as Landlord may specify in writing to Tenant.



     2.5. Section 1.05 of the Lease is amended by inserting the following at the end of such

Floor Terminated Space only, the Term of this Lease shall expire on the Fifth
Floor Termination Date.



     2.6. Section 1.06 of the Lease is amended by inserting the following words immediately
prior to the last sentence of such Section 1.06 {such last sentence begins with the words “The
determinations of Tenant’s”):




Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.06, effective
as of the Fifth Floor Termination Date and for all periods of the Term
thereafter, Tenant’s Pro Rata Share shall be 7.837%, calculated as follows:
Demised Premises of 24,464 rentable sq. ft. divided by the rental Area of
Building of 312,143 sq. ft, = 0.07837 x 100 = 7.837%.



     2.7. Sections 1.08 and 1.09 of the Lease are amended by deleting such Sections 1.08 and 1.09 in their entirety, and inserting in their place the following:




Section 1.08. Security Deposit and Letter of Credit. The parties

with Landlord a Security Deposit and have a Letter of Credit issued in favor of
Landlord. Landlord and Tenant agree that from and after June 1, 2008, Tenant
shall not be required to have on deposit with Landlord any Security Deposit or
have any Letter of Credit issued in favor of Landlord. Landlord agrees to cancel
the Letter of Credit (issued by Bank of America in favor of Landlord in the
amount of $240,131.25) which is in Landlord’s possession as of the date of
Amendment No. 3 to Lease, and Landlord shall execute such documents as is
reasonably requested by Tenant to allow for such cancellation; provided,
however, in no event shall such Letter of Credit be cancelled until Landlord
receives the amounts set forth in clause (a) of Section 1.04 of this Lease (as
such Section 1.04 of the Lease was amended by Section 2.4 of Amendment No. 3 to
Lease). Tenant acknowledges that the Security Deposit being held by Landlord as
of the date of Amendment No. 3 to Lease is being used and applied by Landlord as

the Lease was amended by
