Lessee shall be solely responsible for the payment of all costs incurred in connection with the construction and installation of the Permitted Lessee TI Work, if and to the extent that such costs exceed the TI Allowance.
6. | Security Deposit. The Total Security Deposit on hand totaling $10,751.00 shall be increased by $5,962.68 to equal a Security Deposit amount of $16,713.68. |

EXHIBIT A
OPTION TO RENEW
1. Lessee shall have the option ("Renewal Option") to renew this Lease for two (2) term of Twenty Four (24) months ("Renewal Term"), on all the same terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, except that Base Rent during the Renewal Terms shall be equal to the greater of (i) Fair Market Rent (as defined in Section 2 below) and (ii) the Renewal Rent Floor (as defined below). The "Renewal Rent Floor" shall be the rate of Base Rent in effect as of the expiration of the Original Term or the first Renewal Term, as applicable. Lessee shall deliver written notice to Lessor of Lessee's election to exercise the Renewal Option ("Renewal Notice") not less than one hundred eighty (180) days, nor more than two hundred seventy (270) days, prior to the expiration date of the Original Term or the then-current Renewal Term, as applicable; and if Lessee fails to timely deliver the Renewal Notice to Lessor, then Lessee shall automatically be deemed to have irrevocably waived and relinquished the Renewal Option.
2. "Fair Market Rent" shall be determined by Lessor, in its sole, but good faith, discretion based upon the annual base rental rates then being charged (as of the date on which Lessee delivers the applicable Renewal Notice) in the industrial market sector of the geographic area where the Building is situated for comparable space and for a lease term commencing on or about the commencement date of the applicable Renewal Term and equal in duration to the applicable Renewal Term, taking into consideration: the geographic location, quality and age of the building; the location and configuration of the relevant space within the applicable building; the extent of service to be provided to the proposed Lessee thereunder; applicable distinctions between "gross" lease and "net" leases; the creditworthiness and quality of Lessee; leasing commissions; and any other relevant term or condition in making such evaluation, as reasonably determined by Lessor. Lessor shall notify Lessee of Lessor's determination of Fair Market Rent for the Renewal Term, in writing (the "Base Rent Notice") within thirty (30) days after receiving the applicable Renewal Notice.
3. Lessee shall then have fifteen (15) days after Lessor's delivery of the Base Rent Notice in which to advise Lessor, in writing (the "Base Rent Response Notice") whether Lessee (i) is prepared to accept the Fair Market Rent established by Lessor in the Base Rent Notice and proceed to lease the Premises, during the Renewal Term, at the greater of (y) Fair Market Rent or (z) the Renewal Rent Floor; or (ii) elects to withdraw and revoke its Renewal Notice, whereupon the Renewal Option shall automatically be rendered null and void; or (iii) elects to contest Lessor's determination of Fair Market Rent. In the event that Lessee fails to timely deliver the Base Rent Response Notice, then Lessee shall automatically be deemed to have elected (i) above. Alternatively, if Lessee timely elects (ii), then this Lease shall expire on the original expiration date of the initial Term or the then current Renewal Term, as applicable. If, however, Lessee timely elects (iii), then the following provisions shall apply:
3.1 The Fair Market Rent shall be determined by either the Independent Brokers or the Determining Broker, as provided and defined below.
3.2 Within fifteen (15) days after Lessee delivers its Base Rent Response Notice, electing (iii), each of Lessor and Lessee shall advise the other, in writing (the "Arbitration Notice") of both (i) the identity of the individual that each of Lessor and Lessee,
respectively, is designating to act as Lessor's or Lessee's, as the case may be, duly authorized representative for purposes of the determination of Fair Market Rent pursuant to this Section 3 (the "Representatives"); and (ii) a list of three (3) proposed licensed real estate brokers, any of which may serve as one of the Independent Brokers (collectively, the "Broker Candidates"). Each Broker Candidate:
(A) | shall be duly licensed in the jurisdiction in which the Premises is located; |
(B) | shall have at least five (5) years' experience, on a full-time basis, leasing industrial space (warehouse/distribution/ancillary office) in the same general geographic area as that in which the Premises is located, and at least three (3) of those five (5) years of experience shall have been consecutive and shall have elapsed immediately preceding the date on which Lessee delivers the Renewal Notice; and |
(C) | shall be independent and have no then-pending (as of the date Lessor or Lessee designates the broker as a Broker Candidate) brokerage relationship, formal or informal, oral or written, with any or all of Lessor, Lessee, and any affiliates of either or both of Lessor and Lessee ("Brokerage Relationship"), nor may there have been any such Brokerage Relationship at any time during the two (2) year period immediately preceding the broker's designation, by Lessor or Lessee, as a Broker Candidate. |
3.3 Within fifteen (15) days after each of Lessor and Lessee delivers its Arbitration Notice to the other, Lessor and Lessee shall cause their respective Representatives to conduct a telephonic meeting at a mutually convenient time. At that meeting, the two (2) Representatives shall examine the list of six (6) Broker Candidates and shall each eliminate two (2) names from the list on a peremptory basis. In order to eliminate four (4) names, first, the Lessee's Representative shall eliminate a name from the list and then the Lessor's Representative shall eliminate a name therefrom. The two (2) Representatives shall alternate in eliminating names from the list of six (6) Broker Candidates in this manner until each of them has eliminated two (2) names. The two (2) Representatives shall immediately contact the remaining two (2) Broker Candidates (the "Independent Brokers"), and engage them, as behalf of Lessor and Lessee, to determine the Fair Market Rent in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.
3.4 The Independent Brokers shall determine the Fair Market Rent within thirty (30) days of their appointment. Lessor and Lessee shall each make a written submission to the Independent Brokers (no more than ten (10) pages in length, in the aggregate, per submitting party), advising of the rate that the submitting party believes should be the Fair Market Rate, together with whatever written evidence or supporting data that the submitting party desires in order to justify its desired rate of Fair Market Rent; provided, in all events, however, that the aggregate maximum length of each party's submission shall not exceed ten (10) pages (each such submission package, a "FMR Submission"). The Independent Brokers shall be obligated to choose one (1) of the parties' specific proposed rates of Fair Market Rent, without being permitted to effectuate any compromise position
3.5 In the event, however, that the Independent Brokers fail to reach agreement, within twenty (20) days after the date on which both Lessor and Lessee deliver the FMR Submissions to the Independent Brokers (the "Decision Period"), as to which of the two (2) proposed rates of Fair Market Rent should be selected, then, within five (5) days after the expiration of the Decision Period, the Independent Brokers shall jointly select a real estate broker who (x) meets all of the qualifications of a Broker Candidate, but was not included in the original list of six (6) Broker Candidates; and (y) is not affiliated with any or all of (A) either or both of the Independent Brokers and (B) the real estate brokerage companies with which either or both of the Independent Brokers is affiliated (the "Determining Broker"). The Independent Brokers shall engage the Determining Broker on behalf of Lessor and Lessee (but without expense to the Independent Brokers), and shall deliver the FMR Submissions to the Determining Broker within five (5) days after the date on which the Independent Brokers select the Determining Broker pursuant to the preceding sentence (the "Submission Period").
3.6 The Determining Broker shall make a determination of the Fair Market Rent within twenty (20) days after the date on which the Submission Period expires. The Determining Broker shall be required to select one of the parties' specific proposed rates of Fair Market Rent, without being permitted to effectuate any compromise position.
3.7 The decision of the Independent Brokers or the Determining Broker, as the case may be, shall be conclusive and binding on Lessor and Lessee, and neither party shall have any right to contest or appeal such decision. Judgment may be entered, in a court of competent jurisdiction, upon the decision of the Independent Brokers or the Determining Broker, as the case may be.
3.8 In the event that the initial Term expires and the Renewal Term commences prior to the date on which the Independent Brokers or the Determining Broker, as the case may be, renders their/its decision as to the Fair Market Rent, then from the commencement date of the Renewal Term through the date on which the Fair Market Rent is determined under this Section 3 (the "Determination Date"), Lessee shall pay monthly Base Rent to Lessor at a rate equal to 110% of the rate of monthly Base Rent in effect on the expiration date of the initial Term (the "Temporary Base Rent"). Within ten (10) business days after the Determination Date, Lessor shall pay to Lessee, or Lessee shall pay to Lessor, depending on whether the Base Rent for the Renewal Term is less than or greater than the Temporary Base Rent, whatever sum that Lessor or Lessee, as the case may be, owes the other (the "Catch-Up Payment"), based on the Temporary Base Rent actually paid and the Base Rent due (as determined by the Independent Brokers or the Determining Broker, as the case may be) during that portion of the Renewal Term that elapses before the Catch-Up Payment is paid, in full (together with interest thereon, as provided below). The Catch-Up Payment shall bear interest at the rate of Prime (defined below), plus five percent (5.0%) per annum from the date each monthly component of the Catch-Up Payment would have been due, had the Fair Market Rent been determined prior to the commencement of the Renewal Term, through the date on which the Catch-Up Payment is paid, in full (inclusive of interest thereon). For purposes hereof, "Prime" shall mean the per annum rate of interest publicly announced by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (or its successor), from time to time, as its "prime" or "base" or "reference" rate of interest.
3.9 The party whose proposed rate of Fair Market Rent is not selected by the Independent Brokers or the Determining Broker, as the case may be, shall bear all costs of all
counsel, experts or other representatives that are retained by both parties, together with all other costs of the arbitration proceeding described in this Section 3, including, without limitation, the fees, costs and expenses imposed or incurred by any or all of the Independent Brokers and the Determining Broker.
3.10 Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, during the period of time that any arbitration proceeding is pending under this Section 3, Lessor and Lessee shall continue to comply with all those terms and provisions of this Lease that are not the subject of their dispute and arbitration proceeding, most specifically including, but not limited to, Lessee's monetary obligations under this Lease; and, with respect to the payment of Base Rent during that portion of the Renewal Term that elapses during the pendency of any arbitration proceeding under this Section 3, the provisions of Section 3.8 shall apply.
3.11 During any period of time that an arbitration is pending or proceeding under this Section 3, Lessee shall have no right to assign this Lease or enter into any sublease for all or any portion of the Premises, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Lease. Furthermore, if this Lease requires that Lessor perform any Lessee improvement work in connection with the Renewal Term, Lessor shall be relieved of any such obligation during the pendency of any arbitration proceeding under this Section 3.
4. The Renewal Option is granted subject to all of the following conditions:
(a) | As of the date on which Lessee delivers its Renewal Notice and continuing through the commencement date of the Renewal Term, this Lease shall be in full force and effect and no act or omission shall occur which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, shall constitute a Breach or Default by Lessee under this Lease. |
(b) | There shall be no further right of renewal after the expiration of the second Renewal Term. |
(c) | The Renewal Option is personal to Lessee. In the event that Lessee assigns its interest under this Lease or subleases all or any portion of the Premises, whether or not in accordance with the requirements of this Lease, and whether directly or indirectly, the provisions of this Exhibit A, shall not be available to, or run to the benefit of, and may not be exercised by, any assignee or sublessee. |
