THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals, which are incorporated herein by this reference, the mutual promises and conditions contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows: 
  

	1.	Base Term. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, the last day of the Base Term shall be, and hereby is, extended to November 30, 2017. 


 

	2.	Base Rent. Commencing on December 1, 2012, the definition of Base Rent on Page 1 of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 


 

													
		 	“Base Rent:	 	$3.00 per rentable square foot per month, subject to adjustment as provided for in Sections 3 and 4 below.”

  

	3.	December 2012 and January 2013 Base Rent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, so long as Tenant is not in Default, Tenant shall not be required to pay Base Rent for the months
