AGREEMENT

 

In furtherance of the Recitals set forth above, which are incorporated herein by reference, and in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth below, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties acknowledge and agree to the following:

 

1. DATE SUITE 890 AND SUITE 835 ARE ADDED TO THE PREMISES: Suite 890 and Suite 835 shall be added to the Premises, and the Lease shall be deemed amended to accomplish such addition, on January 1, 2003 (the “Suite 890/835 Addition Date”). Tenant shall have access to and possession of Suite 890 and Suite 835 as of the Suite 890/835 Addition Date. Tenant agrees that, if Landlord is unable to deliver possession of Suite 890 and/or Suite 835 to Tenant on the Suite 890/835 Addition Date, this Second Amendment shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, nor shall the term of the Lease for Suite 890 or Suite 835 be in any way extended, but in such event Tenant shall not be liable for any rent for Suite 890 and/or Suite 835 (on a pro rata basis based on the suite(s) not available to Tenant) until Landlord tenders possession of such suite(s) to Tenant.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord is unable to deliver possession of Suite 890 and/or Suite 835 to Tenant within sixty (60) days of the Suite 890/835 Addition Date, then Tenant may provide written notice to Landlord that it intends to terminate its obligations under this Second Amendment with respect to the suite(s) that Landlord has not delivered to Tenant. If Landlord is unable to deliver possession of Suite 890 and/or Suite 835 within fifteen (15) days of such notice, then Tenant’s obligation to lease such undelivered suite(s) under this Second Amendment shall terminate and be of no further effect (provided that an inability to deliver possession of one suite shall not terminate Tenant’s obligation to lease the other suite if such other suite is delivered as required by this Second Amendment).

 

2. EFFECT OF ADDITION OF SUITE 890 AND SUITE 835: Effective on the Suite 890/835 Addition Date, the following provisions of the Lease shall be amended as set forth below:

For Suite 800, Tenant’s Percentage shall be 2.240% and the Base Year shall be 2001. For Suite 1150, Tenant’s Percentage shall be 2.016% and the Base Year shall be 2002.

The sum of Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses for the four Suites shall be the Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses due under the Lease.

 

Section 1(h). The Base Monthly Rent shall be amended to provide, as of the Suite 890/835 Addition Date, for a Base Monthly Rent for Suite 890 of $12,323.25 per month, and a Base Monthly Rent for Suite 835 of $6,023.25 per month, which amounts Tenant shall pay

4. SUITE 890 AND SUITE 835 TAKEN “AS-IS”: Tenant agrees that it has inspected Suite 890 and Suite 835, and accepts both suites “as-is, where is” as of the effective date of this Second Amendment.

5.
