(i) Effective January 1, 2003, the provisions of Section 13 (a) are hereby deleted and the following is inserted in lieu thereof: "(a) Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord throughout the Term, as Additional Rent hereunder, for Tenant's Share (as defined below) of annual Operating Expenses (as defined below) in excess of annual Operating Expenses for calendar year 2003 (the "Base Year Amount"). The term "Tenant's Share" shall mean the percentage determined by dividing the rentable square footage of the Premises (36,159 prior to December 31, 2004; 27,969 after January 1, 2005) by the rentable square footage of the Building (104,799). Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that Tenant's Share is 34.50% prior to December 31, 2004 and 26.69% after January 1, 2005. Tenant's Share of excess Operating Expenses for any partial calendar year(s) shall be appropriately prorated based on the number of days Tenant has leased the Premises during that partial year." (ii) Effective January 1, 2003, the provisions of Section 13(c)(3) are hereby amended to insert the following sentence as the second to last sentence thereof: "If the provisions of this subsection are applied in any calendar year the Base Year Amount shall likewise be adjusted for the calendar year on which it is based." (iii) Effective January 1, 2003, subsection 13(d) is de1eted from the Lease and amended by inserting the fol1owing: "The Aggregate Controllab1e Expenses during the Recast Term, and any renewal thereof, shall not exceed five percent (5%) per year on a cumulative, compounded basis, As used herein, Aggregate Controllable Expenses shal1 mean the aggregate amount of al1 Operating Expenses other than real estate taxes, utilities and insurance. 8. The provisions of Section 2(b) are hereby deleted and deemed to be of no further force and effect. The following renewal option ("Option to Renew") replaces such prior renewal option: A. So long as the Lease, as amended hereby, is in full force and effect and, both as of the exercise date and the first day of the Extended Term (as hereinafter defined), no default has occurred and continued beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period and no facts or circumstances then exist which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a default, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant one (1) option to extend the Term with respect to all but not any lesser portion of the Premises for a period of five (5) years beginning immediately upon the expiration of the Recast Term ("Extended Term") on the terms and Conditions hereinafter set forth. B. Approximately twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Recast Term, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord notice that it desires to consider renewal of its Lease (the "Inquiry Notice"). Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days after the receipt of Tenant's Inquiry Notice, notify Tenant in writing of Landlord's reasonable determination of the Prevailing Market Rate (as hereinafter defined) for the Premises for the Extended Term. The term "Prevailing Market Rate" shall mean the Base Rent for the Extended Term calculated at the prevailing market rate on a per square foot basis for comparable leases covering buildings comparable to the Building (as adjusted for any variances between such buildings and the Building and as adjusted for other relevant factors, including, but not limited to, size of space, location of space within the building, signage rights, age, location and quality of building, length of term, tenant improvement contributions, leasing commissions and rent concessions) located in the -3- A/WD Submarket to which the Updated Base Year Amount (as defined in paragraph C below) shall be added. Landlord shall also consider that Tenant may not require an improvements allowance or rental abatement typical of a new tenant and that Landlord shall not lose rent because of any marketing or construction time. Upon receipt of Landlord's determination of the Prevailing Market Rate, Tenant shall have thirty (30) days to elect to exercise its Option to Renew by giving written notice of its exercise to Landlord in the manner provided in this Lease. If Tenant fails to deliver such notice within such thirty (30) day period, the Lease shall not renew pursuant to this Option to Renew. C. If Tenant so exercises this Option to Renew, leasing of the Premises by Tenant for the Extended Term shall be subject to all of the same terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, except that the Base Year Amount shall be updated to the amount of Operating Expenses for the first calendar year of the Extended Term (the "Updated Base Year Amount"); provided, however, that any construction provisions, improvement allowances, rent abatements or other concessions applicable to the Premises during the initial Term or the Recast Term shall not be applicable during the Extended Term (unless otherwise mutually acceptable to both Landlord and Tenant in the sole discretion of each at the time Tenant exercises its option to extend) and provided, further, that Base Rent for the Extended Term shall be determined as set forth in subparagraph B above. Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an amendment to this Lease to evidence Tenant's exercise of this extension option. If this Lease is guaranteed now or at any time in the future, Tenant simultaneously shall deliver to Landlord an original, signed reaffirmation of each guarantor's guaranty, in form and substance acceptable to Landlord. 9. (i) Tenant shall have the ongoing right to terminate the Lease with respect to the First Floor Space only (the "Partial Termination Option") effective at any time after December 31, 2004 on nine (9) months' prior written notice to Landlord, which notice must be accompanied by payment to Landlord of the Partial Termination Fee (as hereinafter defined), provided that no default has occurred and continued beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period and no facts or circumstances then exist which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a default. The term "Partial Termination Fee" shall mean $8,953.56 if the Partial Termination Option is effective January 1, 2005 and shall decrease by $93.26 per month for each month beyond January 1, 2005. For example, the Partial Termination Fee shall equal $8,487.26 if the Partial Termination Option is effective on June 1, 2005 ($8,953.56 minus $93.26 per month times 5 months.) As of the effective date of the Partial Termination Option, Tenant (and any party claiming by, through or under Tenant) shall surrender possession of the First Floor Space to Landlord in the same condition, excepting normal wear and tear, as originally delivered to Tenant and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease regarding surrender of space upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease. In the event Tenant (or any party claiming by, through or under Tenant) remains in possession of the First Floor Space after effective date of the Partial Termination Option, Tenant (and any party claiming by, through or under Tenant) shall be deemed a tenant at sufferance on the terms and conditions of Section 43 of the Lease and may be evicted by Landlord without any notice, but Tenant shall be obligated to pay rent for the First Floor Space for any such period that Tenant (or any party claiming by, through or under Tenant) holds over at the holdover rates set forth in Section 43 of the Lease and shall also be liable for any and all other damages Landlord suffers as a result of such holdover including, without limitation, the loss of a prospective tenant for such space. Provided Tenant complies with the provisions of this Section 9(i), Tenant (and anyone claiming by, through or under Tenant) shall have no further obligations with respect to the First Floor Space from and after effective date of the Partial Termination Option other than those which have accrued prior to effective date of the Partial Termination Option or those which are intended by the terms of the Lease to survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease. If Tenant exercises this Partial Termination Option, effective on the effective date of such partial termination, subsection 3(f)(v) of the Second Amendment shall be deleted from the Lease and shall thereafter be deemed to be of no further force and effect. -4- (ii) Tenant shall have a one-time right to terminate this Lease (the "Termination Option") effective January 1, 2011 by delivering to Landlord on or before January 1, 2010 prior written notice of Tenant's exercise of this Termination Option and payment in the amount of the Termination Fee (as hereinafter defined), provided that no default has occurred and continued beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period and no facts or circumstances then exist which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a default. The term "Termination Fee" shall mean $116,950.42 if Tenant exercises the Partial Termination Option above and shall mean $119,118.80 if Tenant does not exercise the Partial Termination Option above. 10. Tenant hereby agrees to accept the Premises for the Recast Term "AS IS, WHERE IS AND WITH ALL FAULTS", and, except as specifically set forth below, Landlord is not obligated to construct any tenant improvements nor to provide Tenant any improvement allowance.

Any changes or upgrades to Landlord's Work shall be mutually agreed upon in writing by both Landlord and Tenant, and any additional costs associated therewith shall be borne by Tenant. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord will be performing the Landlord's Work while Tenant is in occupancy of the Second Floor Space. Tenant hereby agrees that Tenant will, and will cause its agents, contractors, employees and invitees to, work in harmony with Landlord and not unduly interfere with Landlord and its agents, contractors and employees in doing the Landlord's Work. Tenant agrees that the entry by Landlord, its agents, contractors and employees into the Second Floor Space shall not constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant nor discharge Tenant from any of its obligations under the Lease, as amended hereby, nor entitle Tenant to any abatement of rentals owing under the Lease, as amended hereby. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize disruption with Tenant's operations in the Second Floor Space in compliance with the terms of the Lease, as amended hereby; however, Tenant acknowledges that it would be impossible for Landlord to eliminate all disruptions. 11. Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the actual cost incurred by Tenant in fabricating and installing building signage pursuant to the terms of the second paragraph of Section 16 of the Lease. Such reimbursement shall be made only upon Landlord's receipt of invoices or other reasonable documentation confirming the cost components and shall not exceed a maximum of $15,000.00.

The Cash Deposit pursuant to Section 44 shall hereafter be deemed to be $49,606.00, which amount Landlord acknowledges it is currently holding as cash security deposit for the Lease, as amended hereby. The LOC pursuant to Section 44 shall hereafter be deemed to be in the face amount of $47,780.38. Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a new LOC in such face amount meeting the standards of Section 44. So long as no default has occurred and continued beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period and no facts or circumstances then exist which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a default, the LOC shall be returned to Tenant as of January 1, 2006 and thereafter Landlord shall only hold the Cash Deposit as security deposit under the Lease, as amended hereby. 13. The provisions of Section 57 of the Lease are hereby deleted and deemed to be of no further force and effect. 14.
