AGREEMENT

 

NOW 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 in the contrary in the Lease, the Term of the Lease with respect to the Office Premises and the Shared Area shall be extended to expire on July 31, 2014.

 

The Term of the Lease with respect to the Surrender Premises shall expire, as set forth in the Lease, on January 31, 2014 (“Surrender Date”) and Tenant shall surrender the Surrender Premises in accordance with the terms of the Lease including, without limitation, Section 28 thereof. If Tenant fails to surrender the Surrender Premises on or before the Surrender Date, Tenant shall be liable for holdover rent with respect to the Surrender Premises in accordance with Section 8 of the Lease. From and after the Surrender Date, Tenant shall have no further rights of any kind with respect to the Surrender Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, those provisions of the Lease which, by their terms, survive the termination of the Lease shall survive the surrender of the Surrender Premises and termination of the Lease with respect to the Surrender Premises as provided for herein.

3.          Right to Terminate.
