6.	Right of First Refusal.

If during the Lease Term, Suite 300 of Building B is available for lease and Landlord enters into a letter of intent with a third party covering all of the essential terms (collectively, the “Third Party Terms”) for any of such space (the “First Refusal Space”), then Landlord shall deliver a notice to Tenant (the “First Refusal Notice”) offering to lease the First Refusal Space to Tenant under the Third Party Terms (the “ROFR Terms”). As used in this Paragraph 6 only, the term available for lease means that the First Refusal Space is neither: (i) subject to any rights of third parties existing as of the date of this Amendment, including, without limitation, previously granted rights of first notice, expansion rights, extension rights, options to lease, or other previously granted rights, nor (ii) subject to renewal by its current tenant, Statewide, whether or not such renewal is pursuant to an option to renew set forth in its lease as of the date of this Amendment.

Tenant may elect to lease the First Refusal Space under the ROFR Terms by delivering a notice (the “Response Notice”) to Landlord within 5 business days after the date Tenant receives the First Refusal Notice. If (i) Landlord does not receive the Response Notice within the 5 business day period or (ii) in the Response Notice Tenant elects not to lease the First Refusal Space under the ROFR Terms, then Tenant is deemed to waive its right to lease the First Refusal Space and Tenant has no further rights under this Paragraph 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if Landlord does not then execute a lease for the First Refusal Space with

any third party, under economic terms no more than 5% different from those set forth in the Third Party Terms, then this Paragraph 6, and the parties’ rights and obligations hereunder, will be reinstated in their entirety.

If Tenant timely delivers a Response Notice electing to lease First Refusal Space under the ROFR Terms, then Landlord shall promptly prepare, and deliver to Tenant an amendment to the Lease adding the First Refusal Space to the Premises upon the ROFR Terms, which amendment will be in a form substantially similar to this Amendment. Landlord and Tenant shall execute and deliver such amendment within 5 business days thereafter.

Landlord is not obligated to offer the First Refusal Space to Tenant, and Tenant may not exercise its option to lease the First Refusal Space, if Tenant is in default under the Lease at the time Landlord would otherwise be obligated to give notice to Tenant under this Paragraph.

The Right of First Offer set forth in Section 7 of the First Amendment is hereby deleted and shall be of no further force and effect.

Security Deposit; Release of Guaranties. Upon execution of this Amendment, Tenant shall deposit the amount of $48,706.56 as in increase in the Security Deposit currently held by Landlord under Section 5 of the Lease for a total Security Deposit of $86,706.57. The Security Deposit shall be held and applied by Landlord as provided in the Lease. Upon execution of this Amendment by Landlord, Darlene M. Ryan is and shall automatically without any further action be deemed released from and shall have no further liability pursuant to the guaranties previously executed by her in connection with the Lease, including without limitation, that certain Guaranty of Lease dated June 29, 1999 and that certain Guaranty of Lease dated effective September 1, 2002. It is further recognized and agreed that pursuant to the terms of the First Amendment, Bruce K. Montgomery, was previously released from any and all guaranties previously executed by him in connection with the Lease, including, without limitation, that certain Guaranty of Lease Dated June 29, 1999.

Acceptance of Premises. Tenant accepts the Premises including Suites 200 and 400 in their “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition, and Landlord, subject to its obligations under Attachment B, has no obligation to improve, repair, restore, or refurbish the Premises. Tenant’s occupancy of any portion of the Premises is conclusive evidence that Tenant: (A) accepts such portion of the Premises as suitable for the purposes for which they are leased; (B) accepts such portion of the Premises as being in a good and satisfactory condition; (C) waives any defects in the Premises; and (D) having been provided an opportunity to inspect and measure each portion of the Premises, agrees that the square footage numbers specified in this Amendment are accurate, binding, and conclusive for all purposes. Neither Landlord nor any other Landlord Entity has made, and Tenant waives, any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to the Premises or any other portion of the Industrial Center including, without limitation, any representation or warranty with respect to the suitability or fitness of the Premises or any other portion of the Industrial Center for the conduct of Tenant’s business. Landlord expressly recognizes, covenants and agrees that notwithstanding the terms of this Paragraph 8 or Paragraph 13, to the contrary, nothing in this Paragraph 8 relieves Landlord of any of its obligations pursuant to the Lease, including, without limitation, Paragraph 7.2 of the Lease and Paragraph 16.17 of the Lease.

Finish-Out of Premises. Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with a finish-out allowance of $301,036 for costs incurred in connection with renovations to the Premises. Tenant hereby waives any rights it may have to approximately $250,000 in additional tenant improvements to be made to the Building A Space. Tenant must perform all Tenant Finish Work in accordance with the terms of the Lease and Attachment B to this Amendment.

10.

Contingency. The Suite 200 Space is currently subject to a lease dated February 25, 2000 by and between Landlord, as successor in interest to Walstib and SmartMail (the “SmartMail Lease”) The effectiveness of this Amendment is contingent on Landlord executing an amendment to the SmartMail Lease in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord, relocating SmartMail to the Building A Space. If Landlord and SmartMail fail to so amend the SmartMail Lease on or before October 2, 2003, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing and this Amendment shall be terminated and of no further force and effect.

11.	Brokerage; Mutual Indemnities.

Tenant warrants that it has had no dealings with any broker or agent in connection with the negotiation or execution of this Amendment other than Trammell Crow Company and CB Richard Ellis (collectively, “Brokers”). Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold Landlord harmless against all costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, or other liability for commissions or other compensation or charges claimed by any broker or agent other than Brokers claiming by, through, or under Tenant with respect to this Amendment.

12.

No Offsets. Tenant hereby represents to Landlord that to the best of Tenant’s knowledge, as of the date of this Amendment, Tenant has no defenses to or offsets against the full and timely payment and performance of each and every covenant and obligation required to be performed by Tenant under the terms of the Lease.

14.	Headings. The headings or captions of the paragraphs in this Amendment are for convenience only and shall not act and shall not be implied to act to limit or expand the construction and intent of the contents of the respective paragraph.
