5.Option to Terminate.  In addition to the timely payment by Tenant of the unamortized costs and amounts for the Existing Space listed in Paragraph 9(d) of the Rider, another condition to the exercise of the option to terminate set forth in Paragraph 9 of the Rider is that within ten (10) business days after receipt by Tenant of an invoice therefor, accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation, Tenant shall have paid to Landlord a sum comprised of the unamortized cost or amount as of the Termination Date of the following:

11.Entire Agreement.  The Lease, as amended by this Amendment, exclusively encompasses the entire agreement of the Parties, and supersedes all previous negotiations, understandings and agreements between the Parties, whether oral or written, including, without limitation, any oral discussions, letters of intent and email correspondence.  The Parties acknowledge and represent, by their signatures below, that the Parties have not relied on any representation, understanding, information, discussion, assertion, guarantee, warranty, collateral contract or other assurance, except those expressly set forth in the Lease and this Amendment, made by or on behalf of any other Party or any other person whatsoever, prior to the execution of this Amendment.  The Parties waive all rights and remedies, at law or in equity, arising or which may arise as the result of a Party's reliance on such representation, understanding, information, discussion, assertion, guarantee, warranty, collateral contract or other assurance.

12.General Provisions.  In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Lease and the provisions of this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall control.  Except as set forth in this Amendment, the Lease is ratified and affirmed in its entirety.  This Amendment shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding on, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.  This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws (excluding the choice of laws rules) of the state of Utah.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of duplicate originals or counterparts, each of which when so executed shall constitute in the aggregate but one and the same document.  Each exhibit referred to in, and attached to, this Amendment is an integral part of this Amendment and is incorporated in this Amendment by this reference.
